LGBT-CRU: Leaked Cru Training Materials Prove CRU is Teaching “Gay Christianity”
Protestia ^ | May 23, 2024 | David Morrill

Posted on 05/23/2024 11:08:53 AM PDT by Morgana

CRU (formerly Campus Crusade for Christ) has been subjecting its staff to nearly seven hours of video materials promoting SSA (Same-sex attraction) “Side B Christianity” – promoting patently unbiblical and damaging views on gender, sex, sin, and marriage – as evidenced by CRU curriculum that recently leaked online.

CRU’s LGBTQ-accepting training materials feature Revoice heretic Preston Sprinkle and “mixed-orientation marriage” Rachel Gilson telling CRU staffers that God is powerless over homosexual attraction, comparisons between the church’s supposed bad treatment of the LGBTQ “community” and Nazi treatment of gays, and full acceptance of “homosexual” and “transgender” as cultures needing gospel contextualization like any other ethnicity.

Within the various training videos, CRU staff are encouraged to “agree with and to live out our theological teachings, both Side A (open homosexuality in Christianity) and Side B (“celibate” homosexuality) theology, and accept the unbiblical presuppositions that God creates people as “homosexuals” and “transgender.” Trainees are encouraged to change “how they believe” instead of “what they believe” in order to be sensitive to the LGBTQ “community.”

The training materials feature “Side B” mainstays like SSA lesbian Rebecca McLaughlin, Gospel Coalition contributor and reparations hustler Justin Giboney telling trainees to somehow “affirm [the] human dignity and flourishing [of LGBTQ folks]” without “affirming behaviors and beliefs,” and a bevy of self-described “transgenders,” “cisgenders,” and “whatevergenders” encouraging CRU members to deliberately avoid confrontation regarding behavior the Bible clearly attributes to those who are lost and dead in trespasses and sin, given over to shameful lusts (Romans 1:26-27).

CRU has been exposed for years as falling down the social justice and cultural Marxism rabbit hole (famously evident in their 2015, 2107, and 2019 conferences), for being funded by George Soros going as far back as 2012, and for recently ignoring their own staff, who documented multitudinous problems with the organization in a comprehensive expose. The organization’s Christ-dishonoring compromises have been chronicled by Jon Harris, Allie Beth Stuckey, the Dissenter, World Magazine, and right here at Protestia. Yet this recent leak is perhaps the most comprehensive evidence since last year at Liberty University when Rosaria Butterfield infamously called out “Revoice, Preston Sprinkle’s Exiles in Babylon Conference sponsored by his heretical Center for Faith, Sexuality and Gender and CRU” as organizations subversively pushing “Side B” theology on unsuspecting Christian college students. In response to the “oohs” from the crowd, Butterfield reminded them, “I got the receipts, people”:

Now, the receipts include CRU’s indoctrination video training, which is sure to expose what the organization would much rather keep hidden from donors who still believe it is promoting biblical Christianity on college campuses. Watch a small but indefensible sampling of their training below: (on link)

Perverts are always trying to sneak in justifications for their perversions.

I remember them when they were Campus Crusade for Christ. This was 1989? They were cool back then. Now I would not go near them.

They took the word “Christ” out of their name ... looks like they took the Person of Christ out of their organization.

I still don’t know what the term “CRU” stands for. I think it’s a shortening of the word “Crusade” which is now a no-no to keep from triggering you know who.

On this earth, the Holy Spirit, the Spirit-inspired Bible, and the blood of Christ are the only sources of spiritual truth which, unlike the flesh and popular culture, doesn’t change.

God gave every one of his children the choice of receiving “power from on high” - the baptism in the Holy Spirt - which fortifies one with the truth and with power.

Unfortunately CCC is among the many Christian organizations, churches, and denominations who refuse to acknowledge and receive this gift from God. Much like Israel who, although saved from worldly Egypt and Pharaoh, still chose not to enter into the promised Land of rest and died in the wilderness.

Christians who are not baptized in the Holy Spirit are much like righteous but defeated Lot who chose to follow after the flesh and his own self-efforts to navigate through life. That is not what God intended and makes them greatly subject to the world, the flesh and the devil.

Yes I think its supposed to be a shortened version of the word “crusade”.

Apparently the people who run that organization wanted to omit the word crusade, so as not to offend Muslims who are sensitive about the Crusades in history.

And why omit reference to Christ in their name? Are they afraid of offending someone who might think their organization wants to lead people to Christ?

To me, it sounds like merely an incremental step past what some flavors of United Methodists were doing in the last several years.

Changed name to CRU to not offend Muslims...cause “crusade” reminds Muslims how they lost. Took out the word title of Jesus, i.e the “Christ” cause that would offend unbelievers...they are like contaminated salt, unfit for any use.

I have a great idea. The little faggot crusaders can go and proselytize the Muslims with their theology! Another Children’s Crusade!! They are certain to be victorious!!!

Beat me by less than a minute...seems like people are ashamed of the gospel of Christ....cowed by the din of many mouths. Jesus said he will be ashamed of them in the day of the Lord. Matt 7: 22-23 comes to mind. CRU...RIH?

My last activity with Campus Crusade for Christ occurred during my senior year in high school. The activity was hosted at a big house about 3 blocks north of my high school. It was very well attended. The real surprise was discovering the house belonged to Kenny Loggins (Loggins & Messina). I'm often surprised at how many celebs live quietly in a community. Too bad the organization has run off the rails.
