Christianity Today calls on churches to lead on reparations: ‘Repentance is not enough’

I am a Christian because GODsent His Son to die for my sins. He and the apostles told sinners to repent. So, we need to not only repent but also preach repentance. Christianity Today won’t make any sales in my circles. Our church is multiethnic, one Savior, by grace through faith in Jesus Christ. Believing we ALL need to be transformed into His likeness. calvario.kerrville@gmail.com

Christianity Today already got pwned writing this big B.S. story on what an exemplary Christian George Floyd was. It claimed that Floyd went to Minneapolis to do Christian ministry work.

Christianity Today has taken up the social gospel instead of preaching salvation in Jesus. Part of the “falling away”.

“Timothy Dalrymple said “repentance alone is not enough” for white evangelicals to atone for the nation's “original sin” of racism in an op-ed for the magazine.”

My Bible teaches that Jesus’ blood was sufficient to atone all our sins; that He completed the work of redemption. Yes, it requires repentance.

Comes now Mr. Dalrymple with a revelation that that Jesus’ birth, death, and resurrection was not quite sufficient - salvation will require something else. It will require man's good works.

The teaching that only man can save himself can only be one thing: blasphemy.

"The virus of racism infected our church, our Constitution and laws, our attitudes and ideologies. We have never fully defeated it," Dalrymple wrote.

The virus of liberalism has infected our church, our Constitution, our laws, our attitudes and ideologies.

[Schatze]

I was referring only to its land. But the point is the same: Dalrymple is a hypocrite.

I saw it and it made me sick. That is why I threw every copy in my home into the trash.

Dear Apostate “Christianity Today”...We the Children are not responsible for the sins of the father. We ARE suffering from the ramifications of their sin but that does not include you punishing all of us for sins that not only we did not do but many of us had not even any family involved nor any that petitioned government for Slavery. Additionally what of those of us whose families rose up against Slavery?

You are apostate because you feign to use the Bible to condemn people for things they did not do...and you know that difference.

[Songcraft]

Christianity toady.

Apostasy Today!

The über-left will continue to infiltrate organized religion until they have achieved their goal of one party rule.
Then they will turn on it like rabid dogs and destroy it too.

Yes, that position would be considered racist; the entire Black population in America and their supporters would be outraged at the thought of being given reparations folded into a one-way ticket to the African nation of their choice so as to separate them from their oppressors.
BTW, this was already done. Liberia was created as the home of former American slaves (just look at its flag and the name of the capital city). The fact that relocation was not made compulsory and universal is one of the great historical blunders.

Just so there's no misunderstanding, Stormhill is happy to be black.

I was talking about two different publications. CT bad, Decision good.

[smvoice]

Amen. It’s the Social Gospel that is the devil disguised as an angel of light.
We are not reconciled as a NATION to God. The ONLY group of people He called out and made a covenants with as a NATION was Israel. When they were blinded and set aside (temporarily) by God in Acts 28, He no longer deals with mankind as nations of people. He deals with men on a one to one basis, as individuals.

Paul is the only Apostle that spoke of the FIRST man, Adam. And he spoke of Adam because it is through him that sin entered into and upon every man.

Being in a GROUP of people won’t save ANYONE today. Not your church, or your country.

One man brought sin upon us all.

One Man took sin FROM us all.

And one man must face God with His only way of reconciliation with Him: the FINISHED WORK OF CHRIST, for every man who believes.

There aren’t going to be tents set up in Heaven; one for the Baptists, one for the Catholics, etc. The only place that will be there is the place for the Church the Body of Christ.

[RaceBannon]

their failure to call for national repentance and revival speaks louder than anything

[mrsmel]

Interesting how whites can be stereotyped for “sins” committed long before they were born, but blacks can’t be stereotyped for behaviors which a large percentage of those now alive commit.

Since the rioters are deciding what statues to destroy and which buildings to burn I think pro-lifers should draw grafitti and destroy and burn PP offices and destroy Margaret Sanger statues.

I watch all the whites having guilt and feeling white priveledge BUT if they REALLY meant it they should give away their housing and give away their spot in colleges. Easy to stand around and tell others how they should show how much they support but when it comes down to it they don’t really mean it, If they did mean it they would give away their comfort so others can have them.
