Queering Jesus: How It's Going Mainstream at Progressive Churches and Top Divinity Schools By John Murawski, RealClearInvestigations United Methodist Insight Vignettes from progressive Christianity today:

A Presbyterian church goes viral online for marking the Transgender Day of  Visibility with a public prayer to the “God of Pronouns.” The congregants of the church, First Presbyterian of Iowa City, pay obeisance to “the God of Trans Being,” giving due glory to “the Great They/Them.”

The United Methodist Church boasts the first drag queen in the world to become a certified candidate for ordination. This traveling minister, who describes drag ministry as a “divine duty,” is lauded by a Florida pastor as “an angel in heels” after appearing in that church in a sequin dress to deliver a children’s sermon and denounce the privilege of Whiteness and cis-ness.

It’s all fun and games until you have to face him at the Great White Throne.

All the BS falls to the floor. Eph 5:5-6

A first question is why do they even want a God? They want to create their world, so what’s the need for a competing Creator?

A next question is what does their Bible look like? I don’t even want to know what’s in the “queered bible” but I am sure it is either a shell of the Scripture or a re-written scandal. Whatever it is, there can be no coherency to it.

Finally, Jesus died for our “sins” and not just some of them.

This is accusing the LORD of being what is sinful and Demonic. This is the Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit.
.................................

For sure, and mocking Him as well. Praying for our enemies. God bless then with consequences so they may be saved, if possible.

We are to judge actions and behaviors. God judges the heart.

AntiChrist Babylon is rising, and its temples worship proud, rebellious man in his/her every chosen, self-created identity.

OH YES! Of course, I am committing Satan's "favorite sin" by posting one of my music releases on FR. Oh please, dear Lord, spare me your wrath for having done so!

Great share. Thank you! I totally understand and agree. I was 18 when I’d visit my dear friend in Pasedena (who left Colorado to attend the acting academy there). He was 22 and said I’d easily be let into one of his gay bars just since I was a dude (which is a whole other “tell” I didn’t quite grasp until right now). I gave him crap and told him my obvious hesitation. He talked me into it saying “Billy, there will be dozens of fag hags!... They are women who go to our bars cuz they feel safe and just want to dance!” So, I opened my little mind up and went, but it was just like you said. A few got handsy - and I got special attention being young. I left to go outside and talked to a bunch of drag queens - who were an entirely different breed of narcissist. As an aside, I look back at my “open minded naivete” and just shake my head. I put myself in a lot of dangerous situations without even knowing. Today’s poor kids are lambs for the slaughter.

“The chicoms, un, wef, globalists are all allied in that one goal.”

And...don’t look now, but....they appear to be achieving that goal.

Yeah, this is well planned and organized.

But, remember, there are more of us, than there are of them.

Well so far, we’re sure not acting like it. And our side doesn’t even seem to feel the need to get or to be organized. I don’t get it. We’re in a war here. Will people ever wake the hell up?

I feel like you do.

I do not know.

Truth is on our side and we have to be unafraid to speak it.

Been watching “The Chosen” on Peacock TV - I like how they show the apostles, and even Jesus as having, come from regular backgrounds.

Seen this yet?

Freak show. Why even go to a church like that? They literally lead you further away from God.

***Without doctrine, without tradition, without a discipline, without the value of where something is earned, people become reckless, irresponsible, wasteful and disrespectful.***
