The New Gospel of BLM and CRT

In the previous two posts, I have argued that the agenda and worldview of Black Lives Matter is not biblical.  It is anti-Bible and anti-gospel.  This is because it is based on Critical Theory, or Critical Race Theory.  The underlying assumptions of CRT ought to disturb any Bible-believing Christian, regardless of skin color.  For a quick overview take a listen:

The Agenda of Black Lives Matter

Now this I say and testify in the Lord, that you must no longer walk as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their minds. They are darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, due to their hardness of heart. They have become callous and have given themselves up to sensuality, greedy to practice every kind of impurity. But that is not the way you learned Christ!” (Ephesians 4:17-20)

A Prayer for our Nation

Our nation is in chaos.  It appears a “perfect storm” is upon us.  So many hurts and calamities combining to create mass confusion, extreme emotionalism, knee-jerk calls to action, and even greater hatred and division.  A pandemic. Government abuses of power. Then a very public murder. Then another murder. Then more murders, riots, looting.  All the while a “mega drought” plagues the Southwest, tornadoes rip through the South and hurricane season is upon those in the East.  And oh, let’s not forget all the riots and protests are sure to cause a massive spike in COVID-19 cases (at least if what we have been told for months about this virus is actually true).  One can only expect more shutdowns and economic woes if that does occur.  God help us!

Back in mid-March when the various lock downs began, I commented to one of our home schooling families in our church, "We are all home schoolers now!"

COVID-19 and Governor Cuomo

COVID-19 has done some serious damage to New York City. And it has done some serious damage in many other states and cities across the nation and world. Whatever our politics or religious beliefs, or lack thereof, we must all at least be willing to admit a sense of sadness at tens of thousands of deaths (unless you are pro-abortion, which would be the height of hypocrisy, but I digress).

COVID, the Constitution, and the Church

Like millions around this nation and globe, I have watched a virus reign terror down upon us. Or, is it our governments and medical professionals reigning terror down upon us? Or is it both?

COVID-19 and the Cool Church

And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others (Matt 6:5).

RBG Logic Applied to Abortion

The Supreme Court is hearing a pivotal case to determine whether to uphold Louisiana's law requiring abortion doctors to have admitting privileges at nearby hospitals. This is, of course, a reasonable safeguard to both the health of the mother, as well as the health of the baby if born alive (and yes we are now learning that happens more often then we might imagine).
