TRINITY FORUM HAS BECOME A REGULAR CONDUIT FOR PROGRESSIVE POLITICAL NARRATIVE POLISHING. EXHAUSTING AND OUT OF TOUCH AS THEY APPEAR WITH THEIR OWN LACK OF INFLUENCE -THE EFFORT PROVES AS ONGOING AS IT DOES RIDICULOUS.

Rev Thomas Littleton

Trinty Forum is at it again – seeking to provide a platform for progressive fringe political types into the conservative Christian movement. Here is the latest with Georgetown Professor /ERLC Fellow/ intelligence community operative/ political thinker Paul D. Miller.

TRINITY NEVER STOPS.

NOTE- JUST INSERT “MAGA” IN PLACE OF “CHRISTIAN NATIONALISM” TO UNDERSTADN THE PROCESS.

“What’s Wrong with Christian Nationalism?: an Online Conversation with Paul D. MillerRegister NowWe invite you to join us for an Online Conversation with Paul D. Miller on Friday, August 9 at 1:30 p.m. ET to explore the relationship between Christianity and nation and to ask: What’s wrong with Christian nationalism?”

“Christian nationalism is all over the news as public figures daily endorse or denounce it. But what exactly is Christian nationalism? How does it differ from patriotism? And what happens when we misunderstand the relationship between Christianity and the American nation?”

“In his book The Religion of American Greatness, political theorist Paul D. Miller explores these questions. He will help us to understand, amid many forcefully asserted visions, the lines that separate faithful and idolatrous ways to engage in political life.”

“On August 9 at 1:30 p.m. ET, we invite you to join us for an Online Conversation with Paul D. Miller. As part of our Navigating 2024 Faithfully effort, he will help us explore the relationship between Christianity and nation and to ask: What’s wrong with Christian nationalism?”

WHY SHOULD EVANGELICALS CARE WHAT A PROGRESSIVE JESUIT GEORGETOWN POLITICAL THEORIST PROFESSOR THINKS ABOUT CHRISTIAN NATIONALISM?

“GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY- Our Catholic & Jesuit Heritage”

“Shaped by centuries of Jesuit education around the globe, our culture embraces the changing times while staying true to core values – engaging your intellect, helping you grow ethically and spiritually, exchanging ideas freely and building a more just world.”

RESPONSE? THEY DON’T OR AT LEAST SHOULDN’T

SOME ERLC HISTORY WITH MILLER ATTEMPTS TO TELL YOU HOW TO VOTE.

In the lead up to the 2020 election the ERLC commissioned its Fellow Millar to do a whitepaper-a sort of “voter ethics guide ” entitled :

“Faith and Healthy Democracy”

BY PAUL D. MILLER

Sep 26, 2019

Faith and Healthy Democracy

AN EXCERPT

MISSIONS STATEMENT …MORE OR LESS

“This report explores how American evangelical Christians might contribute to healing political and cultural divides in America. It also aims to identify gaps in Americans’ civic education and civic practice and to suggest ways to fill that gap. We hope to engage Christians on what healthy democratic participation looks like: how do we love our neighbors politically, and how might our faith lead us to advocate for human flourishing in the public square?”

So the ERLC White Paper is to educate us . So listen and learn but reader beware there is a virtual litter of activist puppies from the SBC Seminary kennels in this little document .

CIVILITY CONCERNS ALWAYS COME FROM PROGRESSIVE LEFT CHANGE AGENTS CALLING CONSERVATIVES INTO THEIR DIALECTIC PROCESS.

1. The State of Public Discourse…………………………7
2. A Christian Political Agenda?……………………….24
3. Initial Recommendations ……………………………..52

” We want to engage our friends, supporters, and critics across the range of issues covered here. We also hope to develop materials for use in churches based on this research, helping equip church leaders to teach their flock about how to love their neighbors politically. ”

CONCLUSION.

PROGRESSIVES NEVER SLEEP. They never tire of their change agent efforts or their false mask as concerned conservative Christians . The Shaming narratives never stop. The lies never look less obvious AND they never understand that we are not listening …because they money keeps flowing if they keep talking.

DO YOURSELF A FAVOR -JUST KEEP TUNING OUT.
