Russell Moore: "All over the country...crazy has become a ⛪ growth strategy. Not so much reaching unbelievers but pulling believers out of churches."

Example: unnamed MI ⛪ where pastor (allegedly) said "Covid's a hoax and we're going to fight against masks + vaccine mandates."
Issue 1: Name the church, name the elder, substantiate the "Covid's a hoax" quote (1 Tim 5:19). This is airing gossip. Full stop.

Issue 2: Didn't we just spend years lamenting the history of how entire denominations were formed because certain people were excluded from worship?

h/t @scottsauls who thought this was a good look (and @JoshDaws who caught the part of the quote he left out)

All right, long 🧵 with at least 11 clips incoming. When I saw this dustup with Gavin Ortlund last week, I remembered he just released a book on "theological triage" or discerning what are the "right hills to die on" in various debates. Some thoughts...
Screenshots for the blocked. Ortlund was defending David French about something or other and then got into this bit of fearmongering about evangelicals/Deplorables. Implication is people who are on the right in current U.S. culture wars are a dangerous threat to the nation. ImageImageImage
I'm gonna go through some highlights of an interview Gavin did with Remnant Radio about his book, where he nuances to death issues like Christians affirming gay marriage and universalism. The question is: how does such a Thoughtful Person fail to extend similar grace in politics?

Rev. Dr. Howard-John Wesley of Alexandria, VA's Alfred Street Baptist Church says Christians who don't wear masks are violating the commandments of God. His guest, Yale prof Obery Hendricks Jr, will go on to call them "anathema" and "antichrist."

Got this as a tip from @Kdubtru
"These folk are not fulfilling their gospel responsibility...What we see reflected in their attitudes and their actions and their pronouncements is what 1 John calls the spirit of antichrist."
"Franklin Graham, he's got a spirit of antichrist...I'm not saying that they're evil people. I'm saying, though, that they are in the thrall of evil discourse and evil actions, and we have to start calling evil by its rightful name."

This week in WPCs!

Moore could have spent 30 seconds googling before the show and pushed back on this obvious lie, but he didn't want to offend his poetry club buddy.

YouTube edit on that:

This YEAR in WPCs! Picking my favorite clips from each month

JANUARY: When I say this is all about the gospel vs. liberation theology, I'm just passing along these guys' message!
FEBRUARY: Some people think the SBC should have genuflected more to this guy. You can forever disregard those people.
MARCH: This one made a few headlines in the Christian news world...

This week in WPCs!

Mennonites game-planning "antiracist worship" = pretty huge garbage fire
YouTube edit gives you a quick summary of the panel:
Never a bad idea to have low expectations when you scan the channel of a church that's buddy-buddy with the Jude 3 Project
