Russell Moore and David French To Speak on ‘How Evangelism Lost Its Way’ at Gay-Affirming Church
Protestia ^ | August 10, 2023 | staff

Posted on 08/10/2023 9:29:22 AM PDT by Morgana

In a move that should surprise no one, NYT columnist David ‘Drag-queen-story-hours-are-a- blessing- of liberty’ French and Russell ‘I-love-the-enneagram’ Moore are attending the Texas Tribune Platform Festival, a noxiously progressive paper that is hosting a series of events well-suited to the likes of these two.

The former ERLC head and current Editor-in-chief of Christianity Today Astray will be interviewed by French on his upcoming book Losing Our Religion: An Altar Call for Evangelical America”. The two will condescendingly commiserate on how “evangelicalism lost its way” without ever mentioning that they were both instrumental in throwing away the compass and burning the map.

The event is taking place at St. David’s Episcopal Church in Austin, Texas, a gay-affirming church that gives visitors name tags with LGBTQ rainbow stickers. Here, Moore will do his one-sided riffing where he only throws punches to the right while tossing red meat to the left, seeking to stand above the fray while scampering around in search of pagan approval.

Wouldn’t go for the world.

Religious groups these days would benefit from a little less tolerance and a little more hellfire and brimstone.

You can always tell that when these apostates go just a little soft on a biblically established issue, they always go completely soft on it.

Nobody has done more to sanction what the Heavenly Father calls an abomination than pappy Francis .... remember ‘judge not’... anybody with two working brain cells would flee that cauldron of lies and deceit ... these two clowns are rank amateurs ..

Oh, for the I can't stand President Trump because he had a party for the queers ... have strangely ignored who, what, where, when, and why, there are now LAWs introduced by none other than the supremes ... Some of you claim to be holy Christian... strangely Christ declared ..”remember Lot's wife” like anyone was going to stop or prevent this generation gone wild.

Oh, one more thing, I care not one wit of any of you do gooders calling me a ‘bigot’... I have read the Instruction Manual, some call it the Holy Bible... Might surprise the many you would be calling the Heavenly Father a bigot.

“gay affirming” and “gender affirming” mean very different things to those who use the terms and what they mean in real and practical terms.

I know when I want to find out how a junkie lost his way, I always ask their drug dealers.

Was reading that chapter this morning. Seems rather clear. Not sure how some get around it.

Watching David French's slow descent into madness for a dozen years.

What happens when you buy the subtle lies of Satan: "you too, can be like God, David...."

Russell Moore is a liberal political preacher.

John Zmirak has the best nickname for David French... “Vichy French.”

What is evangelism?

Is it getting them to come to church? Is it arguing them into Heavan?

Jesus said “find” my sheep. If they don’t want to hear the truth, the Good News, shake the dust from your feet and move on to some who does and then camp there.

Evangelism is at the heart of the 5 points of Calvinism.

Find the Elect. Find His Chosen.

...and Leviticus 18:22 (ESV): “22 You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination.”

Apparently, such gays seem to believe either (a) that this only applied to ancient Israel, or (b) that the Almighty woke up one morning and changed His mind 180 degrees from “abomination” to “affirmation”.

That’s an appropriate nickname given his worldview.

Another sign of the times.

Genesis 19:27-28 KJV

27 And Abraham gat up early in the morning to the place where he stood before the Lord:

28 And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace.

The original lie still being believed by men and women who have the Bible to read and learn from. By so-called educated men and women who in French’s case has read the Bible I would wager and they still believe the evil ones original lie.
