"Wounded in the House of My Friends"
A jeremiad against Christians undermining true religious liberty.
Hi All,
I generally have emphasized the “liberty” aspects of true “religious liberty:” legal and constitutional principles, civil liberties, public policy, politics, etc.
But I also believe that its just as important to address the “religious” aspects as well: doctrinal fallacies which somehow becomes the dominate narratives in public discourse.
One of those narratives is that non-Christians, non-believers, Marxists, communists, atheists, and “woke” leftist are the major threats to freedom of conscience and religious liberty in the United States.
Some have re-interpreted Bible prophecy and Scripture to fit this story line but there is one big problem: there is no support in the Bible for these ideas.
In fact, the opposite is true: the greatest threats have always been those from within the household of faith.
In this presentation I take us through the Bible to examine how Scripture addresses systems and then the patterns of opposition within the societies and movements documented in its pages.
Next these Biblical principles are amplified with examples from current events. Lastly I challenge Christians to reconsider what the real purpose of religious liberty is.
While just about anyone can glean something useful here this is very much an “in-house” conversation, a jeremiad meant to shake Christians awake to the real perils and encourage people to get involved and stop being distracted by poor, non-Biblical arguments.
The video should start at the beginning of the sermon and I’ve included my slides for download as well.
Coming Soon: The Canon State of Saint Crow
Working on the series revealing the establishment of a religious caste system in the United States we’re calling “Saint Crow.”
Our next installment is called The Canon State where we examine the influence of sectarian Christian movements, including the conservative legal movement, on politics, law, and policy and the efforts to establish another caste system built on the frameworks of economics and race.
More to come.
Grace to you.
