'A modern-day Pharisee': Buttigieg's evangelical brother-in-law urges him to 'repent' of abortion views

The evangelical brother-in-law of Pete Buttigieg called on him to "repent" for using the Bible to justify late-term abortion and claimed the presidential candidate is "weaponizing" Christian teachings to promote a false religion.

Pastor Rhyan Glezman, 34, who serves a church in small-town Michigan, told the Washington Examiner that he was very alarmed by Buttigieg's claim that the Bible teaches life does not begin until a baby first draws breath.

During a wide-ranging Friday interview on the radio show The Breakfast Club, Buttigieg scolded Republicans for their views on abortion, saying, "Right now, they hold everybody in line with this one piece of doctrine about abortion, which is obviously a tough issue for a lot of people to think through morally. Then again, there's a lot of parts of the Bible that talk about how life begins with breath. So even that is something we can interpret differently."

"I feel a sense of responsibility and stewardship of my faith to stand up and say something, to say, 'No, that's not true,'" Glezman explained. "God places a very high value on all human life. Everyone is created fearfully and wonderfully in the image of God with intrinsic value. That doesn't start at the first breath, it starts when we enter our mother's womb."

Glezman asserted that Buttigieg's use of Scripture to defend abortion up to the point of birth was "outrageous," adding, "If we're going to say we're for all people and we love all people, but we don't value human life in the womb, that's being a hypocrite. You're hypocritical if you don't stand up for all life. So that's why I'm speaking out."

Um, the Pharisees didn’t promote infanticide. Mayor Buttplug is a Satanist.

You know what they say about people who set themselves up as a religious instructor to God’s people...

They come under greater condemnation for preaching falsehoods.

Gross, I just realized he is not his brother-in-law. He is the brother of the other poofter.

There's a Faulkner like story in this. The Fag and the Evangelist.

What mayor Pete did was to try to destroy the witness of evangelical Christian’s in our society not only by his views on abortion, but also on his views on having borders. If non-Christians are led to believe by him that in order to be a Christian a person has to espouse Marxist globalist views that have no rooting in the reality with which we deal, if he causes non-believers to think that they cannot accept God without accepting Marxist globalism, then that is far beyond a jot or tittle and will be subject to God’s judgment.

I was just going to post the same. The left destroys everything it touches. Now the language is so screwed up, no one knows what anyone is saying.

What about urging Butterbutt the Sodomite to repent of abortion views makes his brother-in-law “a modern-day Pharisee”?

According to this poofter using a plastic straw is a sin but killing unborn children is not.

I’m pretty sure the actual Pharisees would have Pete severely flogged for blasphemy, if they couldn’t make a death penalty stick.

What homosexual Episcopalians have done is retranslate the Bible to suit their needs. In their translation God approves their deviant behavior and now I see they have retranslated it to affirm their beliefs on abortion as well.
In this way they are able to feel good about themselves, even self righteous and convert other deviants to their perverse religion.
Very dangerous

And explain why he ignores Leviticus 18:22 and 20:13.
