    Mohler: Christians need to stand for truth, not pronouns

    According to the president of Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Christians who choose to honor pronoun requests in order to avoid hurt feelings for someone dealing with gender dysphoria are, in fact, forfeiting the high ground in any conversation of faith moving forward.

    “We want to respond as kindly and as respectfully as we can, but there are lines Christians can’t cross without giving away the store, so to speak, and one of them is the line of this language, especially when it comes to the transgender, nonbinary revolution,” Mohler said.

    “One of [the Left’s] ultimate rhetorical plays is to simply say, ‘This leads to violence.’ Now let’s be clear. You and I are both broken-hearted over any individual so distraught over these issues that that individual, he or she, would seek some sort of violence against himself or herself,” Mohler said to Perkins. “I want to turn that back on the Left and say, ‘It is not conservatives. It’s not biblical Christians who are sowing the seeds of confusion here. It is you; it is the Left.'”

    Mohler encourages Christians to stand firm in difficult times.

    “We argue for this not just because we know it’s right and true, which we do, but because we know a loving God knows this is right for us and is the way to health and wholeness. There is not going to be any health and wholeness in rebelling against the very structure of creation that God has made for His glory,” the seminary president asserted.

      The reality of all this is that “the left” does not care about compassion or tolerance, they use those words solely as a shield to cover the fact they are gathering power, money and influence.  So at the end of the day they are absolutely willing to use and abuse those they claim to protect for their own goals.  And the obvious evidence of this is that they are happy to entertain the delusions of people whom are confused or ill so that they are on their side even though that just harms them for life.

      They steer people away from God, away from right and wrong, away from common sense and away from tradition because all of those things get in their way.  That is exactly how the communists took China.

      The same Southern Baptist Church that funded the NFLT and Tripura Tigers and other terror groups that slaughtered over 17k Hindus in the last 25 years?

      It’s called Karma. The centuries of evil committed in the name of Christianity are coming home to roost. The gender issue will be the end of Christianity. I predict within 50 years Christianity will either be outlawed or replaced with a state religion in the West.

        “The centuries of evil committed in the name of Christianity are coming home to roost.”

        Total BS.  You hate religion and or God.  Fine.  That’s on you.  Through history people have needed little reason to do horrible things to each other.  In more recent times the ones doing most of the evil are against worshipping anything but the state itself and God/religion usually is all but forbidden and outlawed.

        However your last statement is correct.  Any belief in God within the next 10 years will be outlawed and there is already a state religion to replace it which is woke’ism.  And much of that is foretold in the Bible.

        Both are true. And you might agree with me when I say that the state is the worst god / deity ever conceived.

        Baptist World Alliance

        Controversies
        In 2004, the Southern Baptist Convention of the United States left the BWA after it had accused then-BWA President Kim of adopting a liberal theology because of his support for the exercise of pastoral ministry of women, its alleged anti-Americanism, and because member denominations including the American Baptist Churches USA and the Progressive National Baptist Convention allow the autonomy of its churches to perform same sex marriages.[25] Alliance Secretary General Denton Lotz replied that the Alliance was not liberal, but evangelical conservative, that the American Baptist Churches USA in its constitution believed only in marriage between a man and a woman and that any accusations of anti-Americanism had resulted from his visits to Fidel Castro in Cuba for the import of Bibles and the expansion of the freedom of belief.[26][27] The SBC also claimed the Alliance refused to discuss abortion stances.[28] In a General Council Resolution, the Alliance lamented the widespread resort to abortion but acknowledges the diversity of views and calls on Baptists to honor each individuals freedom of conscience.[29] In 2005, two state denomination members of the Southern Baptist Convention, the Baptist General Association of Virginia and the Baptist General Convention of Texas, applied for membership in the Alliance and were admitted.[30]

        About all I’m finding is that a Baptist church founded in the region in that region in India in the 1940s by missionaries from New Zealand may, according to the government, be supporting at least one terrorist organization that is calling itself Christian. At least one article claimed some kind of “…clear and concrete evidence which confirms that some international Christian organizations are backing terrorism and separatist movements in India’s North-east”, but it gives none of the evidence.

        And so far, I’ve seen no evidence that the SBC has had anything to do with it.
