A hit piece by the Associated Press on the Southern Baptists.
To: Presbyterian Reporter
Definitely a hit piece. Russell Moore is pit viper. His version of compassion for abuse victims is accepting millions in tax money for illegals. He’s also advocated aspects of critical race theory be accepted. The resistance to CRT is one reason some blacks are leaving.
We are witnessing the separation of wheat from chaff.

Evangelical Christians were a regular presence in the Trump White House. They laid hands on the president as they prayed for him, stood at his shoulder as he signed executive orders, and saw vindication for their support in his antiabortion policies and conservative judicial appointments.
Now, the Southern Baptist Convention, the country’s largest and most influential evangelical denomination, is at war over what direction it will take after the Trump presidency.

And they love to act as though the SBC has some sort of centralized power that it doesn’t. The SBC is a mere cooperative for missions, printed materials, etc. But it does not have the slightest power over any individual church.
They want it badly but it’s not in the cards.

Catholics circled the wagons in a similar manner years ago. Instead of addressing the issues, they kicked the can down the road. It has not been helpful.

Yes. The liberal Left, now the Marxist Left, have hated the Southern Baptists for many, many years. I wonder whether the Leftist who wrote this article full of venom and lack of true facts about the Southern Baptists understands that all over this nation there are parents who are a part of a growing backlash of Critical Race Theory which is being taught to their innocent children in school. They believe it is Marxism, not unlike what Mao used in China, to indoctrinate their children and to take away our freedoms. This article is part and parcel of all that, in my opinion. Are there diverse opinions in any church organization. Yes, they are made up of people and people often are a problem for one another, but they work it out. I, personally, have never been a member of any church where there was not a small minority of persons, sometimes just one, who did not try to cause problems. Usually, those people were looking for the personal attention and power they could not grab for themselves in the world outside the church. Being in music, I have also seen women, mostly young women, who tried to get close to young pastors. To my knowledge, none complied in my experience, but the chasing was obvious to almost everyone. All you have to know about the constant threat of sexual problems is look to the huge sexual charges existing in the world of politics, media, Hollywood, etc. etc. Carnal humans will sometimes not be able to resist that carnality and, the church is no different. In the end, Christians do not look to the church for their faith, because that is a personal relationship with God, the Creator and, Christ, our Lord. Those who do not believe will never understand the power of the Word of God or the blessing of being able to gather with other Christians, who need one another, regardless of ethnicity, as they try to get through their time on this earth. Jesus had a lot to say about how we should treat the enemies of our faith and it is never to try to hurt them the way they want to hurt us. It is clear for anyone watching what is coming down in this country that judgment day is not that far into the future. In fact, many, including myself, believe that we are closing in on the last days before Christ comes back to take us to our home with Him. I would say to ABC and others who want to use this moment to chastise through their weapon, which is words used to distort truth and reality, that they really should use their time more wisely to take care of their own doorstep.

Southern Baptists aren’t as conservative or as Christian as many people are led to believe.
Southern Baptists: Get woke, go broke.

Russell Moore, Beth Moore, and the black pastors who left are all heretics. They needed to go. Critical Race Theory is just a racist version of Marxism, which is inherently atheist.
