Apocalypse–ON HUMAN RIGHTS. Think of what is really going on here. When globalist from the far left want to advance the rights of the fringe then it is always at the immediate expense of the majority and eventually is set to the collapse of any and all protections for anyone. FOR GLOBAL HUMANITY – THE LONG SOUGHT ENSLAVEMENT DRAWS NEAR WITH BARS AND CHAINS made of words, theories and the fleeting concepts of a false equitable and inclusive utopia.

Nothing says FAILURE to maintain an ETERNAL perspective and Gospel focus like aligning with the mainstream of trending culture in order to make your ministry or movement more popular and “in step”. Yet what is lost in the process is beyond value and often beyond recovery.

Diversity Equity and Inclusion are not biblical concepts, redemptive drivers or Kingdom of God principles BUT this has not STOPPED many “inspired” Christian leaders and organizations from adopting the DE&I metrics as “success” and applying them to the corporate cultures of churches and ministries. The Big FAIL is yet to come as DE&I redefines every aspect of human interaction and is driven by non-human and anti Christian /anti God ideology. Even if these organizations are able to use their DE&I compliance to obtain massive grants from foundations and government agencies and secure corporate partnerships and matched giving among supporters – the stench of death to their vision and divine calling is unmistakable and inescapable.

SOME DOCUMENTED EXAMPLES OF MINISTRIES AND MOVEMENTS ALREADY TAKEN IN BY DE&I

CRU- FORMERLY KNOWN AS CAMPUS CRUSADE

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) at CRU International

“What do employees from different demographic backgrounds think about diversity, equity and inclusion at CRU International? Read what CRU International is doing to promote DEI in the workplace and how the company supports individuals of varying gender, ethnicity, age, sexual orientation, religion and other attributes.”

Cru’s Four Areas of Strategic Focus

ASSOCIATION OF CHRISTIAN SCHOOLS INTERNATIONAL

“The Challenge ACSI “

“The challenge of discussing diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) can be even more pronounced in Christian circles than in the general public, because we rightly believe that we are all created by God and that there is only one race—the Human Race. Verses such as Galatians 3:28 reinforce this: “There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.” While this verse primarily expresses that there are no lesser or greater Christians based on background, it can be misinterpreted that cultural challenges are not present in the Body of Christ. We can incorrectly use verses like this and others to recuse ourselves from any serious examination of cultural problems affecting our school communities.”

CHRISTIAN MEDIA “CHURCH LEADERS.COM” ADDS “BELONGING” TO DE&I

“Critical Race Theory. Wokeness. Gender-affirming. Implicit bias. Christians today are coming face-to-face with a tidal wave of terms and changing cultural norms that have left many feeling like exiles, foreigners in a distant land. Wanting to hold to both biblical truth (conviction) and God’s never-ending grace (compassion), many find themselves not knowing how to move forward in the wake of so much change. “…Truth be told, diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) aren’t four-letter words. In fact, they may be just what we need to find our way back to a discipleship that models Jesus’, and that sees those in our world come to true faith.”

SOUTHERN BAPTISTS HAVE ALLOWED INTERNAL ACTIVISTS TO USE #CHURCHTOO ABUSE ISSUES TO DRIVE THEIR MOVEMENT INTO DE&I COMPLIANCE ORGANIZATION GUIDEPOST SOLUTIONS

Mission Statement of GUIDEPOST SOLUTIONS

“Guidepost Solutions fosters an inclusive environment of professionals who share common values of diversity and equality. We treat each other with respect. We listen to and learn from one another with compassion and empathy. We encourage diverse viewpoints as we provide innovative solutions for our clients’ complex challenges.”

“A dedicated Diversity + Inclusion Committee brings our team together by offering educational presentations, open platforms for listening and discussion, and learning opportunities. We incorporate these activities into our workday and beyond.”

Vision Statement

“A mosaic of diversity and innovation.”

GUIDEPOST SOLUTIONS -WITH IT’S DE&I CULTURE -EVEN RUNS THE SOUTHERN BAPTIST “ABUSE HOTLINE”.

Southern Baptist who call to report sexual abuse are networked through Guidepost and its deep commitment to Diversity Equity & Inclusion .

1. Who “runs” the SBC Hotline?

“Guidepost Solutions LLC (“Guidepost”) Guidepost is an independent, third party that was hired by the Southern Baptist Convention Executive Committee (“SBC EC”) on May 25, 2022, to collect reports, whether anonymous or attributed, regarding current and historic allegations of sexual abuse within SBC churches and SBC entities. Guidepost has set up the SBC Hotline as a means to gather information from reporters and refer submissions to the SBC Credentials Committee for their consideration and action as the SBC Abuse Reform Implementation Task Force deems appropriate. All calls/emails are handled exclusively by Guidepost team members. Guidepost continues to maintain this hotline.”

CHRISTIAN POST ARTICLE IN NOVEMBER 2018 PROMOTED THE CALL TO DE&I FOR CHRISTIANS

“Here’s Why Christians Should Be on Frontline of Promoting Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion“

“To better reflect God’s Kingdom here on earth, Christians should be at the forefront of promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion in all aspects of society, from the church to the classroom, says Greg Dowell, Liberty University’s Vice President for Equity and Inclusion.”

GLOBALISTS LIKE THE UNITED NATIONS/ WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM AND COUNCIL ON FOREIGN RELATIONS USE DE&I AS THEIR METRIC FOR ACTIVISM DRIVEN REDEFINING OF HUMAN RIGHTS GLOBALLY.

UNITED NATIONS -“DIVERSITY ,EQUITY, INCLUSION FOCUS

WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM -” EMBEDDING DE&I ECONOMICALLY AND IN SOCIETY

OUR MISSION

“Embedding equity and inclusion into economies and societies”

“The World Economic Forum is committed to helping people and organizations follow through on commitments to expand opportunity for the traditionally excluded, whether economically, racially, culturally, or technologically.”

“We aim to provide a platform where the public and private sectors can join forces to try to recognize historical shortcomings, rectify systemic inequalities, increase the diversity of perspectives involved in decision-making, and develop cities and technologies that are accessible for everyone.”

“PROBLEMS” WITH USING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE . AND DE&I GOALS ARE SIGNIFICANT – WORKPLACE/HIRING IS ONE EXAMPLE

“AI in recruitment: is it helping or hindering your drive for DE&I?”

(FROM DIVERSITY Q ARTICLE JANUARY 2023)

AI, recruitment and discrimination

“At face value, it is easy to see the appeal of AI technology – but it can become problematic when AI is relied upon to reduce BIAS.”

“It is well known that a diverse workforce gives employers access to a greater range of talent, driving creativity and innovation and also producing commercial advantages. With growing pressure to meet diversity and inclusion goals and to establish meritocratic cultures, many companies are now relying on AI in recruitment to ensure candidates are assessed “objectively” and without reference to characteristics such as gender and race.”

IN REALITY INCLUSION BECOMES A WAY TO EXCLUDE CHRISTIANS AND CHRISTIAN ORGANIZATIONS !

– BEWARE –

NOTE- When algorithms driven to promote DE&I are used in the context of “detecting the non-compliant”/hate speech/domestic terror then issues arise for the offenders and non -compliant with the daily functions of life. These include shopping/ banking, government program participation , healthcare , voting rights, scholarships, hiring or promotions in the workplace. As the DE&I assessments are applied then ANY mention of indication of ” ANTI- Diversity, Equity and Inclusion philosophy” such as those reflected in conservative. orthodox Christian Worldview is detected then the person holding such “discriminatory” views WILL BE EXCLUDED. The detection and the PROCESS will not be by an official, or the head of HR or the admittance office BUT by the drivers in the Artificial Intelligence and algorithms. The EXCLUSIONS WILL BE AUTOMATIC and perhaps irreversible .This is actually a “desirable outcome ” and use of AI for those interested in and committed to the metrics and “Social Credit Scores”.

So much for “INCLUSION “. .. IF YOU BELIEVE THE WRONG THINGS.

This exclusion and intolerance has already moved its way INSIDE the church where Jesus warnings in John 16:2 are being fulfilled all around us.


“They will put you out of the synagogues; yes, the time is coming that whoever kills you will think that he offers God service.”

EUROPE HAS EVEN CONSIDERED BANNING THE USE OF A.i. IN SURVEILLIANCE AND SOCIAL CREDIT SCORES -AS REPORTED BY LIBERAL CNBC IN APRIL 2021

“EU to consider ban on using A.I. for mass surveillance and social credit scores”

“LONDON — Using artificial intelligence software for mass surveillance and ranking social behavior could soon be outlawed in Europe, according to draft legislation that has been shared online.”

FROM CNBC ARTICLE: (An annotated image from IBM’s Diversity in Faces dataset for facial recognition systems.)

• An 81-page leaked document says “indiscriminate surveillance of natural persons should be prohibited when applied in a generalized manner to all persons without differentiation.”
• On social credit scoring, which is already used in China, the draft legislation says: “AI systems used for general purpose social scoring” should be prohibited.
• Certain uses of “high-risk” AI could be banned altogether, according to the document, while others might not be able to enter the bloc if they fail to meet certain standards.

GLOBAL ISSUE

Artificial Intelligence: AI, Diversity, and Inclusion

Curation: Desautels Faculty of Management, McGill University

“One way to avoid problems with the technology is to create more diverse development teams”

“Artificial Intelligence tools are often promoted as an opportunity to improve diversity and inclusion. However, the news is full of stories about AI systems going horribly awry in ways that have the opposite effect. Some aspects of AI – such as its large scale, automated processes, and data-based decisions – could in principle expand access to resources and foster fairer treatment. Yet these same features also risk creating only the illusion of objectivity, while they encode inequality and injustice on a vast scale – or are used to further oppress disadvantaged groups. While AI tools do have the potential to improve diversity and inclusion, that power comes not from AI itself but rather from their creators. Current AI is not capable of abstract reasoning, nor can it predict the impacts of major change, necessitating human creators who understand why a current system may be problematic – and how AI might improve it. Similarly, the problematic impacts of AI on diversity and inclusion stem not only from issues related to data and algorithm design, but also from their creators misreading and oversimplifying social systems – and not anticipating unintended consequences.”

“For example, a scandal erupted in the United Kingdom in 2020 related to an algorithm used to grade crucial university entrance exams that undercut the scores of less-affluent students (though it was not a full AI system) – illustrating how algorithm creators may not anticipate how their tool will reinforce existing inequalities. Consideration of the diversity and inclusion impacts of AI systems should be incorporated into the design and evaluation of all AI tools, as well as their regulation and oversight. In addition, subject matter experts are necessary to understand the context in which an AI system will be deployed. Perhaps the most critical need is for AI development teams themselves to become more diverse – through changes in access to education and resources, hiring practices, and organizational cultures. Numerous examples exist of AI systems that are problematic because they reflect the world views and assumptions of their creators. While diverse teams are not a guaranteed fix, they reduce the odds that diversity and inclusion impacts will be overlooked. Diverse AI talent also broadens the innovation landscape more generally in ways that can push the technology forward on all fronts.”

CONCLUSION

Entire historically faithful movements and ministries have gone over to the DARK SIDE of global politics and Cultural Marxist standards for human behavior.They have subjected themselves to DE&I and culture change, social justice, and globalist ideologies to promote “Common Ground for the Common Good” /Community Development and training leaders for a “New Harmonious World Order “. Our innocent children and grand children are now subjected to being transformed into GLOBAL CITIZENS right under our noses in our own churches and Christian Schools and homes. All of this is in defiance of everything God has commanded us to do regarding our parental responsibilities. And it is all taking place on once Holy Ground- His ground – the church of the Living GOD.

Where do we go from here? The simple answer is “no where good “.There is no possible good outcome left on this trajectory and the sad reality is – the sooner this failure is judged the better for the world and the church. God arise and Let judgement begin at the House of God among those who think themselves guiltless while selling out the saints of an entire generation. And Lord – in wrath remember MERCY . Amen .

1 Peter 4:

17 For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God; and if it begins with us first, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God?

Habakkuk 3:

² O Lord, I have heard Your speech and was afraid;
O Lord, revive Your work in the midst of the years!
In the midst of the years make it known;
In wrath remember mercy. 

After having corrupted the church for decades and ruined the lives and ministries of countless young pastors…FILLING OUR PULPITS WITH CHAFF- TGC doubles down asserting that it can repair the breaches and restore the church with more of its poisonous doctrines.

2/7/2023

There is no secret what false teaching can do.What it has done to other movements and denominations..it will do to you (your). And at least since 2018 most biblically anchored believers began to understand that progressive politics and warped doctrines of The Gospel Coalition were at the very core of declining commitments to biblical truth in the American church.The leavened continues to spread into Europe ,Asia and most other parts of the globe. After all Tim Keller’s TGC / Redeemer City to City . Center for faith and Works movements are indeed GLOBAL MOVEMENTS.

After Keller announced that his health was in serious decline many, this author included, have prayed that his illness might serve as a sobering wake up call leading to repentance from his problematic influences on modern day Christian faith. In stead he and those who look to be committed to preserving his organizations and legacy and furthering the reach of his teachings are making efforts to secure its continued existence.

INTRODUCING THE KELLER CENTER FOR CULTURAL APOLOGETICS

” The launch for the Keller Center for Cultural Apologetics is today.”

Ligon Duncan

@LigonDuncan Feb 7 Congratulations to @collinhansen @msgwrites &

@brannonmc on the launch of @TGC @timkellernyc Center. Great to see

@ReformTheoSem folks & friends involved et al.

“Our Post-Christendom Culture”

“We’re living amid the largest religious transformation in American history. Forty million Americans have left the church in the last 25 years. Many other Western countries have already seen similar declines. But that’s not the only challenge. After the fall of Christendom, believers in Western countries now face a strange mixture of apathy and antagonism toward the gospel. Many of our neighbors view Christianity as yesterday’s news but also as the source of today’s problems.

“We want to stem the tide of the dechurching by cultivating spiritual depth and humility among Christian leaders. “

“Learn more about The Keller Center for Cultural Apologetics:

“This is a new challenge. A big challenge. And church leaders don’t yet know what to do.”

“That’s where The Keller Center comes in. We want to help church leaders around the world”

FELLOWS AND THOUGHT LEADERS OF THE KELLER CENTER- SAME OLE ACTIVIST SONG AND DANCE

From Justice Warriors like Rebecca McLaughlin to ” gay Christian” activist like

Sam Allberry and Rachel Gilson , to Collin Hansen to carry to aging YR&R torch

into the future -the Keller Center promises more of the same while blindly or arrogantly

promising the reverse the trends of a post Christian culture it has helped further since

2006.

PROMISING THINGS LIKE BIBLICAL CRITICAL THEORY “

Christopher Watkin

“Later this year I’ll be leading a “cohort” (an online guided teaching and discussion group) on Biblical Critical Theory”

“The Theology of Cities”

” Human Flourishing ” as a Biblical mandate..

“Theology of Vocation”

Seeking the Welfare of the City”

and

“AGENDA 2030 /GLOBAL GOALS ARE CHRISTIAN MISSION”

NO NEED TO SEARCH FOR THESE THINGS IN SCRIPTURE -THEY SIMPLY MAKE THEM UP

FEATURED BOOKSINCLUDE A KELLER BIOGRAPHY BY TGC EDITOR AND LEADING “YOUNG RESTLESS AND REFORMED ” AGING STABLE OF TINKERS COLLIN HANSEN

“Millions have read books and listened to sermons by Timothy Keller. But which people and what events shaped his own thinking and spiritual growth? Spend any time around Keller and you’ll learn what he’s reading, what he’s learning, what he’s seeing. The story of Timothy Keller is the story of his spiritual and intellectual influences, from the woman who taught him how to read the Bible to the professor who taught him to preach Jesus from every text to the philosopher who taught him to see beneath society’s surface.”

“With access to Keller’s personal notes and sermons—as well as interviews with family members and longtime friends—Collin Hansen gives you understanding of one of the 21st century’s most influential church leaders. Go behind the scenes to view additional pictures, watch interviews, and listen to the full sermons and lectures you read about in the book.”

TGC AND THE MODERN RABID NEO-CALVINIST ADMIT THE CHURCH INFLUENCE IS FADING AND YET REFUSE TO SEE OR ADMIT THAT THIS HAPPENED ON THEIR WATCH AND AS THE ERRORS FLOODED -LITERALLY AND FIGURATIVELY -INTO THE CHURCH WITH THEIR FALSE TEACHINGS.

“The reasons our friends and family leave the church are both common and complex. The Keller Center wants to close that back door by giving you gracious answers and innovative strategies to help friends and family find God in the church. Already we have commissioned and begun to assess the largest-ever survey of people who have left the church. We plan to share this data through our website, books, and podcasts as we consult experts who can help church leaders respond wisely.”

“In previous decades, even non-Christians in Western nations might know enough about God, sin, salvation to connect the dots as we testified to Christ. But now, those dots may not even occur to them. Many of our secular neighbors can’t seem to comprehend the gospel, let alone admit they need it. We need churches with wide-open front doors, where our neighbors can connect the dots by meeting the very body of Christ, a compelling community. The Keller Center shares best practices through cohorts, essays, books, conferences, courses, podcasts, lectures, and more.”

“SEND OUT THE EQUIPPED “

“Even as we make the church a more hospitable place for skeptics and doubters, we must go to them—in their neighborhoods, in their schools, and in their workplaces. The Keller Center’s resources equip Christians with answers developed in collaboration between leaders in the academy, marketplace, and church. We have begun to develop creative and accessible apologetics content on various platforms where many young people first encounter arguments against Scripture and faith.”

“In summary, The Keller Center for Cultural Apologetics helps Christians show unbelievers the truth, goodness, and beauty of the gospel as the only hope that fulfills our deepest longings.”

“We want to train Christians—everyone from pastors to parents to professors—to boldly share the good news of Jesus Christ in a way that clearly communicates to this secular age.”

How You Can Join

“Much of this training will come from The Keller Center’s fellows. The Keller Center equips these next-generation leaders through regular online gatherings and an annual in-person retreat. During their multi-year terms, these writers and teachers collaborate on answers to the questions that either lead people to lose faith, or prevent people from finding faith in the first place.”

“In The Keller Center’s online cohorts, you can learn with and from other front-line leaders on the most pressing issues facing the church today. You can sign up for our newsletter to be notified when our fellows publish an essay or release a new podcast. And you can financially support the center so that our efforts can grow in proportion to the scale of this historic challenge.”

“Close the back door.

Open the front door.

Send out the equipped.”

REALITY CHECK- TGC IS THE WELLSPRING OF CRITICAL THEORIES IN THE SEMINARIES AND THE PULPITS- OF SOCIAL JUSTICE- SOCIAL CHANGE TRANSFORMATION AND “THIRD WAY” PROGRESSIVE POLITICS

TGC GAVE US THE FOLLOWING- JUST A SAMPLING OF THE ERRORS :

MLK/50 in April 2018 which alerted the Christian world to their false gospel and racial division along justice and CRT lines.

iN THIS EVENT CRT WAS IN FULL USE BUT HAD BEEN FLOODING THE SEMINARIES UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF TGC SINCE AT LEAST 2009

TGC ALLIANCE WITH PROGRESSIVE &CAMPAIGN LAUNCHED AT MLK/50

APRIL 2018 TGC LEADERS ARE CAUGHT PROMOTING “LIVING OUT ” AND “REVOICE” LGBTQ+ CHRISTIANITY

Make The Gospel Great Again :Reject the False Gospel of “LGBT+ Christianity”

2019 AND 2020 TGC LEADERS AND THEN TIM KELLER JOIN WITH OBAMA FOUNDATION, DEMOCRATIC PARTY OPERATIVES AND PAUL SINGER FUNDED IDEOLOGY IN & CAMPAIGN TO MOVE BIBLICAL CONSERVATIVES TOWARD MUSHY MIDDLE .

TIM KELLER JOINS LEFTIST & CAMPAIGN

There are many more examples of the false teachings and horrific impact of TGC and Tim Keller’s influence. Much of his phraseology and talking points come from openly Frankfurt School inspired Think Tanks like the Institute for Advanced Studies in Culture and the far left economic theory wrapped in warped theology from Yale Center for Faith and Works.

Creating an “Evangelical Deep State” operation there has been plenty of dark money to go around like Kern Family Foundation and Templeton Foundation who both moved “off shore ” to the Cayman Islands in at least 2014.With no tax benefit needed for non profit foundations it can only be assumed this move was done to aid in the avoidance of a clear volume of the grant /money trail into organizations associated with TGC.

PERHAPS TGC WOULD BE WILLING TO SHOW WHERE ITS SEED MONEY /VAST OPERATING EXPENSES / AND THE KELLER CENTER FOR CULTURAL APOLOGETICS FUNDING ARE COMING FROM .

HOW ABOUT IT GUYS?

CONCLUSION

Collin Hansen admitted in an odd interview with ABC news that TGC was begun to basically impact the voting habits of Biblically conservative Christians. Interestingly TGC attempts to do so by projecting the false image that it is a politically neutral theological movement when in fact is is simply operating as a carefully engineered progressive political movement with carefully honed narratives to sound theologically reasonable. THIS IS THE MOVEMENT CALLED “NEO-CALVINISM “

Dr. E S Williams has doen a great deal fo research exposing Neo-Calvinism and its doctrine and key leaders like Tim Keller, John Piper , and Albert Mohler.

HERE is a excerpt of his work

5 FEATURES OF NEW CALVINISM

POSTED ON JULY 12, 2012

New Calvinist has a two-part series of articles on “Who Are the New Calvinists?”  The Lectures by Ted Williams were delivered at the School of Theology, Metropolitan Tabernacle, London, on July 4, 2012. The lectures were read by Darren Cadapen, a member of the Tabernacle fellowship.

From Part 1:  New Calvinism, The Gospel Coalition and Dr. Tim Keller

“New Calvinism is a movement that is sweeping across the Church in the USA and moving to the UK, and into other countries around the world. Many Christians may not be familiar with the term, and so my task in two talks, is to explain the phenomenon of New Calvinism, a movement that claims to be behind a resurgence of the reformed teachings of John Calvin, Charles Spurgeon and Jonathan Edwards. Led by some of the biggest names in the evangelical world, New Calvinism gives the appearance of doctrinal soundness. But on closer examination, we see a different picture. We see a movement that is bringing the world into the church—a movement that puts no difference between the holy and the profane. I hope to demonstrate that the problem of New Calvinism lies in both doctrine and conduct.”

The following is excerpted from Part 2: Pastor John Piper, Mark Driscoll and Dr. Albert Mohler 

“Here are the five features of New Calvinism.

1) Doctrinal shallowness.

New Calvinism, despite its claims of being a resurgence of the Reformed doctrines of Calvin, is doctrinally shallow. Its message of salvation, while may at times be technically correct, is delivered in a way that lacks conviction; that seldom mentions the awful offence of sin and the need for genuine repentance unto salvation that leads to new life in Christ. New Calvinism’s teaching on sanctification is deficient. It downplays the need for holy living, while emphasising the freedom, pleasures and benefits of the Christian life.

2) Loves the things of the world

New Calvinism has brought the ways and thinking of the world into the church. It does not usually separate from the attitude, desires and things of the world. New Calvinism is given over to the desires and thinking of the flesh. It is deeply committed to contemporary worship and the holy hip-hop scene. In matters of dress, language and entertainment, New Calvinism accepts and follows the way of the world.

3) Profoundly ecumenical

New Calvinism is a broad tent that embraces all shades of doctrine. Assent to the apostle’s creed is all that is required for one to be accepted as a Christian. This means New Calvinism is sympathetic to Roman Catholicism. Its inclusive attitude readily accepts charismatic and emerging church errors. The pursuit of false ecclesiastical unity is the cardinal error of New Calvinism that leads to all manner of compromise. New Calvinists refuse to separate from unsound doctrine, and even the most extremely forms of false teaching. Many form spiritual alliances that are about pragmatic advantage, rather than about the proclaiming the true gospel. Like the New Evangelical, so the New Calvinist, do not practice separation from those manifestly in error, and thus violate Scriptural principles as stated in 2 Cor. 6:14-18.

4) Social activism

New Calvinism adds the social gospel to the gospel of salvation. It believes that a central aspect of the gospel is an attitude of social activism that aims to redeem culture and save the world. It promotes social programs to care for the poor, and the human rights agenda to improve social justice.”

5) Low view of Scripture

“New Calvinism has moved beyond the inerrancy of Scripture debate, for its approach to Scripture is characterised by irreverence and flippancy. Some in the New Calvinist camp even use the Bible as a source of good comedy. The lyrics of rap artists are regarded as being profoundly doctrinal, able to teach the church how the Word of God should be preached. Scripture is contextualised to make the gospel world view sensitive and acceptable to the latest cultural trends in society. Jesus must be presented as the answer to the questions the culture is asking.”

“New Calvinism is a movement that is characterised by flippancy to holy things. It has no fear of God; it puts no difference between the holy and the profane. Puritan Thomas Watson gave this advice: “Take heed whom you listen to! It is our dear Saviour’s counsel, ‘Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves’ (Matthew 7:15). Let me tell you, the Devil has his ministers – as well as Christ. There are some, who by the subtlety of their wit have learned the art of mixing error with truth, and to give poison in a golden cup.”

WEF “POSITIVE CHANGE “

“Recent changes in law and the expansion of LGBTQI rights in a number of countries mark positive progress. What lessons from these success stories can be applied in other contexts? Speakers: Ben Fajzullin, Sarah Kate Ellis, Sharon Marcil, Tirana Hassan, Fahd Jamaleddine The World Economic Forum is the International Organization for Public-Private Cooperation. The Forum engages the foremost political, business, cultural and other leaders of society to shape global, regional and industry agendas. We believe that progress happens by bringing together people from all walks of life who have the drive and the influence to make positive change.”

WEF PANEL TOPICS FOR LGBTQi+

WEF LBGTQ activists criticized the US for so-called “anti-LGBTQ” bills, legislatIon WHICH ARE AIMED at protecting children from transgender surgeries, womens sports, and women’s rights to single sex bathrooms, locker rooms, showers and other spaces.

ANTI-LGBTQI BILLS AT THE STATE LEVEL

Sarah Kate Ellis, President of GLAAD, SPOTLIGHTED “anti-LGBTQ” bills that she says are mostly “targeting trans youth”. GLADD , Her organization had “worked with corporations behind the scenes to THREATEN states to say… I’m gonna pull business. I need safe places for my employees in the United States.”

“There are multiple factors at play in the LGBTQI+ struggle, @JamaleddineFahd emphasizes the importance of considering the context as a whole.”

World Economic Forum

@wef @sarahkateellis@GLAAD speaks on the importance of ‘speaking up and out’ for marginalized people in the LGBTQI+ community.

INCLUSIVE ECONOMICS

(FROM Post Millennial WEBSITE)

“The idea that LGBTQ inclusion policies are economically beneficial stems from the WEF’s insistence that businesses should focus on “stakeholder capitalism” rather than the more traditional shareholder capitalism.”

“In the stakeholder capitalism model, companies must allocate resources to environmental and social issues alongside striving to be profitable. The WEF argues that being LGBTQ-inclusive is the secret to economic success in a post-pandemic world, as inclusive cities are claimed to be more innovative and attractive to young, creative minds.”

“Sharon Marcil, of Boston Consulting Group (BCG), said her company has enhanced “gender-affirming care” coverage and made “an enhancement in terms of inclusiveness in fertility.” This includes company coverage for surrogacy.”

DETAILS

Around min 9 – The discussion turns to corporations playing and “continuing to play a role and need to and it is being DEMANDED BY THE NEXT GENERATION.”

Min 11 – The assertion is made that the US has a significant number of anti -LGBT Youth legislative efforts. CEO’s can push back on this issue. Trans youth have the least voices and WE HAVE TO BE SPEAKING OUT FOR THEM.

Min 14- “Setting up PRIDE Communities in companies”

Min 15- Establishing public /private partnerships playing out the PR …Get ahead of it- we’ll have to do it given it is “demanded and expected”.

Min 16 -We brought up best practices of DEI and chose 8 best practices on how to implement that all over the world and make societal change.

Min 19- How do you con·ven·ience people that this is a basic human right?

Min 22 – No matter where we are working in the world (what culture) we have a common set of principles and purposes .

Min 24 -A really good model is in the US how we did marriage equality- its aright but it was the emotional appeal ..when we started talking about LOVE… Visibility is the KEY and lays the groundwork to move rights forward. ..by people knowing who WE ARE

Min 25- How can infiltrate or work with media and corporations to get the word out and bring visibility.

Min 26- On Transgender – In the US -who is making up the gap in education? -its the media.

Min 27 Q and A begins

WEF 2020 ASSERTED THAT LGBTQI INCLUSIVE CITIES -ARE PART OF THE “GREAT RESET ” RETURN TO POST COVID PROSPERITY “

https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2020/06/lgbt-inclusion-cities-post-covid-reset-recovery/

( From WEF June 2020 Report)

• “Economies that are more inclusive are better placed to recover from the shocks of the COVID-19 pandemic.

• A strong positive correlation exists between LGBT+ inclusion and economic resilience.

• In particular, cities that embrace diversity may reap an ‘inclusion dividend’ as they begin to rebuild their economies.”

“As the world continues to grapple with the unprecedented global health crisis of COVID-19, the scale of the related global economic crisis is becoming increasingly clear. We are facing the sharpest economic contraction since the Great Depression in the 1930s, according to the United Nations – threatening to roll back decades of progress in the fight against poverty.”

“At the same time as taking emergency measures to minimize the immediate economic impacts of the pandemic, governments around the world are looking to position themselves for recovery. A new analysis of economic resilience offers a potential clue to which economies may be able to recover faster: LGBT+ inclusion is correlated to the resilience of a country’s economy.”

WEF PANELIST ASSERTS THAT LGBTQI+ RIGHTS ARE THE NEW BATTLE GROUND FOR HUMAN RIGHTS.

“Tirana Hassan, Interim Director at Human Rights Watch, “LGBT rights… are actually becoming signs of modernity,” and are becoming “a new battleground.”

‘This is not a fight that is over’ says @TiranaHassan on the importance of continuing to advance and protect LGBT rights around the world.”

Sharon MarciL talks about how support has improved for the LGBTQI+ community in the last 25 years, but there’s more work to be done.

“The World Economic Forum’s Annual Meeting in Davos, Switzerland is underway and LGBTQ visibility is high. Last night, the heads of state, CEOs, and civic and social leaders from around the globe were greeted with the Partnership for Global LGBTIQ+ Equality’s “Pride on the Promenade,” a united show of support for LGBTQ people through a rainbow light-up of multiple venues and signs across the Promenade, the main street of shops and cafes in Davos. “

“The initiative organized by PGLE, Accenture, and GLAAD celebrates the progress of LGBTQ human rights and serves as a call to action for necessary advances in global LGBTQ acceptance and equality. PGLE is a project of BSR, the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights, and the World Economic Forum.”

“Accenture, AWS, Axios, Circle.com, Cisco, CNBC, Deloitte, EY, Female Quotient, Google, Hub Culture, IBM, Meta, Microsoft, Salesforce, SAP, Workday, and Zoom participated in ‘Pride on the Promenade’ by displaying rainbows and LGBTQ messages on screens and signage in exterior and interior hosted spaces located on and around the Promenade in Davos. “

ACCORDING TO ALL GLOBAL ADVOCATES OF LGBTQI RIGHTS – RELIGIONS -ESPECIALLY CHRISTIANITY ARE “THE BIGGEST ENEMY OF LGBTQI+ RIGHTS“.

(FROM WEF 2018 ARTICLE ON THREATS TO LGBTQ RIGHTS)

TRUMP AND CONSERVATIVE CHRISTIANS WERE A THREAT?

(NOTE- Trump has never been a threat to LGBTI rights but has had the support of conservative evangelicals who do oppose the agenda. )

“Meanwhile, in the US there is worry about a rollback of LGBTI rights under the administration of President Donald Trump. The latest in a series of rights reversals prompting concern include banning transgender people from serving in the US military in most circumstances and removing protections for transgender prison inmates.”

“Recently the US Supreme Court ruled in favour of a Colorado baker who would not make a wedding cake for a gay couple.”

“Although the case stopped short of setting a precedent that would allow people to claim exemption from anti-discrimination laws for religious reasons, it highlighted tensions in the US between conservative Christians and the proponents of LGBTI rights.”

So the Christian Church has always been and will always be the primary target for social change from WITHIN .

CHRISTIAN LEADERS WORKING SOCIAL CHANGE FROM WITHIN

Here are clear examples of how compromised Christian Leaders are moving the church toward the Globalist vision ” BEYOND THE RAINBOW”.

American Seminaries and major denominations liek the Southern Baptist Convention and once conservative Presbyterians have promoted Gender/ Feminine / Queer theories and INTERSECTIONALITY for over a decade. Diversity Equity and Inclusion are the new MANTRA for Christian organizations.

SOUTHERN BAPTIST SET FOR HARD LANDING SOMEWHERE “OVER THE RAINBOW”: MINUS BIBLICAL FIDELITY.

(ARTICLE FROM MAY 2022)

In 2018 the Revoice movement promoting “LGBT+ Thriving in Historic (Conservative) Churches” surfaced after years of planning and educating in house activist in both the SBC and PCA flagship seminaries. The resulting controversies , divisions and splits have failed to turn these movements around at the highest levels and the LGBTI Critical Theories training continues.

REVOICE IS NOW RECRUITING CHURCH PARTNERSHIPS. DON’T BE DECEIVED.

CONCLUSION

Christian organizations around the world are seeking to partner with local and national governments and with the United Nations in global “relief” and “refugee resettlement” efforts as well as with Global Health Initiative ” and World Health Organization. Leaders like Baptist Rick Warren, Tim Keller, Walter Kim and Francis Collins and organizations like World Relief, National Association of Evangelicals, World Evangelical Alliance, Lausanne Movement continue to deepen their own ties with global interest like WEF and have shown complete willingness to take the institutional church and foolish Christians who follow them- down this deadly path INTO AGENDA 2030 DE&I metrics and including “LGBTI Inclusion- BEYOND THE RAINBOW ”

HEBREWS 10

²⁶ For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, ²⁷ but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries. ²⁸ Anyone who has rejected Moses’ law dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. ²⁹ Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace? ³⁰ For we know Him who said, “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord. And again, “The Lord will judge His people.” ³¹ It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

Compromised pastors in The Gospel Coalition continue to press the limits while continuing to assert that TGC and they are rooted in biblically orthodoxy. & Campaign which is a direct extension of the Democratic Party and Obama Foundation into the conservative evangelical movements , continues to be endorsed by pastors . Meanwhile Baptist like Matt Chandler who has been selling the snake oil of “white privilege ” and CRT laced false gospel is one of many pastors exhibiting ever increasing boldness in his own fringe endorsements and involvements.

A Tree Known by Its Fruit

³³ “Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or else make the tree bad and its fruit bad; for a tree is known by its fruit. ³⁴ Brood of vipers! How can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. ³⁵ A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good things, and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things.

As centuries come and go and millenniums pass

nations spring and grow and wither as the grass.

As the ebbing tide does rise and fall , so rulers and mighty ones

advance and withdraw.

O Babylon ancient with your defiant tower

now confounded and debased through Divine power.

You Egypt ,your pharos, your river Nile

now known for crumbling ruins and the crocodile.

Assyria the mighty, beautiful Nineveh the strong

razed to the ground a memory now gone.

Babylon of Nebuchadnezzar, from greatness to you knees

plundered and overrun by the Persians and Medes.

O Israel you prince with your City of Peace

ransomed and reared up from the weakest , the least.

Rising …falling..rising…again

for He could not forsake the work of His hands.

As a woman travailing, giving birth to the Son

if you had known of His visitation,the Anointed had come.

And what of the nations about us today?

As a drop in a bucket before His Holy face.

To the North lies Russia, with its war gods of iron

to the far East, multitudes by enlightenment made blind.

India, your gods are as many as the sands.

Africa your inhabitants still bruised and in bands.

Arabia,such darkness now covers your skies

through a militant prophet, and hatred, and lies.

You Europe, in Splendor and arrogance and ease.

Your gods are now old and fading memories.

America to the South in poverty you wait

and hope for salvation before the Vatican’s gate.

O America, the United a virgin nation was born

through seeds of wickedness your beauty now scorned.

Behold ! From the heavens a Bride will descend

and as Rule for the nations whose Kingdom shall never end.

Hear O nations and repent of your deeds

your glories are now gathered, a footstool for His feet.

Hear,O Holy Nation ,Priesthood Royal

come out of her My people lest your garments be soiled.

No sun and no moon and no temple exist.

His countenance now enlightens-GOD is in the midst.

Rejoice, Rejoice ,Rejoice again !

For the LORD our GOD the OMNIPOTENT REIGNS …

Thomas Littleton written in 1993

MAY 23RD 2018 ALBERT MOHLER DECLARED THE #METOO MOVEMENT IN THE CHURCH WAS THE “WRATH OF GOD POURED OUT-THE HUMILIATION OF THE SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION”. YET THE SBC ABUSE ADVOCATE/MEDIA STAR/ CONSULTANT/ AUTHOR / CONFERENCE SPEAKER AND HER HUSBAND HAVE BEEN A PART OF ALBERT MOHLER’S TEAM AT SBTS FOR OVER A DECADE.

Rev Thomas Littleton

January 14th 2023

This past week controversy arose over the MANY HATS that victims advocate Rachael Denhollander is currently WEARING in the ongoing SBC “Sex Abuse ” controversy, investigation and media circus. It seems that not only has Mrs. Denhollander been working for many Southern Baptist entities like The ERLC ( under Mohler protege’ Russell Moore at the time) but also for the Executive Committee, SBTS itself, various other entities like Lifeway (where one of the featured victims has worked as an executive) AND is now reported to be ACTUALLY running the SBC abuse HOTLINE.

See Capstone Report January 8th 2023 article :

DENHOLLANDER HAS CONFLICTS OF INTEREST IN RELATIONSHIP WITH SBC ABUSE HOTLINE

O Yes and she works with the independent investigative firm Guidepost Solutions directly and with the various “Task Forces” which the SBC have established to coordinate the investigation and “implement ” its new policies.

MOHLER AND ACTIVISM IN THE SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION

Albert Mohler and his SBTS are deeply tied to the leading activist the SBC related to Racial issues, the use of Critical Race Theory , Intersectionality , The LGBTQ Thriving Revoice movment in the SBC and PCA. AND more recently it has come to light that Mohler has had a longstanding connection with the leading couple in sex abuse /#metoo/ #churchtoo JUSTICE advocacy.

SOME HISTORY OF SBTS KEY ACTIVIST :

1ST -Russell Moore who accused the SBC of rampant racism , sex abuse and the existence of a massive coverup of the above in the SBC,Accusations came via leaked letters leading to the current investigation and abuse crisis.Moore IS the most famed or infamous of Mohler’s proteges’ . Moore was educated, employed and in leadership at SBTS for more than 2 decades. Moore also helped launch the CRT filled MLK/50 event in April 2018 where he accused Southern Baptist of “worshipping Jim Crow”as Jesus.

2ND -Once CRT and Intersectionality were being mainstreamed as “useful tools with the Gospel” in the Southern Baptist it was Mohler who worked directly with his in house SBTS CRT activist on RACE to drive a program called “Removing of the Stain of Racism from the SBC”. Those SBTS trained and employed activist included Curtis Wood, Matt Hall & Jarvis Williams. These same resident SBTS activist were part of the 2017 SBTS racial history investigation and purge as well as the 2019 Resolutions Committee who altered a submitted resolution ( # 9) to condemn CRT and Intersectionality in the SBC into an affirmation of CRT and Intersectionality.

(The panel, which was hosted at the SBC Cooperative Program stage, featured R. Albert Mohler Jr., Kevin Jones, Matthew J. Hall, and Curtis Woods. The panel was moderated by Jarvis J. Williams, associate professor of New Testament interpretation at Southern Seminary.)

3RD – Nate Collins founder of Revoice LGBTQ Thriving in the SBC ( which ALSO DEEPLY IMPACTED THE PCA) was a student, a Garrett Fellow AND taught New Testament at SBTS. Collins resided at SBTS for a period of 14 1/2 years obtaining 2 degrees and asserting in his dissertation for SBTS that the use of “Virgin ” proves the existence of a “third gender identification ” in the New Testament. Collin’s SBTS academic studies and papers and his book “All But Invisible” centered around Feminine,Gender and Queer Theories and Feminist Theology. Revoice is a movement in intersectionality “at the intersection of faith and sexuality”. Collins also presented some of his SBTS sexuality papers at ETS.

4TH- Deeply concerning is the decade PLUS history of Jacob and Rachael Denhollander at Albert Mohler’s SBTS and the ongoing efforts of the “Sex Abuse / #churchtoo scandals to force investigations, lawsuits, the coalition of victims, settlements AND to enforce compliance of Diversity Equity and Inclusion in the nations largest Protestant Denomination the Southern Baptist Convention. As the reader can determine below the use of,Jacob Denhollanders SBTS academic career and academic focus look to have been used to furthered the cause of the #churchtoo in the SBC. Is this “a Gospel issue”? No-nuanced critical theory and Feminist Theology narrative is not the Gospel.

THE DENHOLLANDER REPUTATION

There is no denying Rachael Denhollander’s acclaim :

“Rachael Denhollander  is an American lawyer and former gymnast. She was the first woman to publicly accuse Larry Nassar, the former  Michigan state University and USA Gymnastics doctor, of sexual assault.^[1] Denhollander is 2018 Glamour Woman of the Year and was included in Time magazine’s 100 Most Influential People of 2018.^[2] She is the recipient of the 2021 Abraham Kuyper Prize for Excellence in Reformed Theology and Public Life.”

“Denhollander was the last to speak during both of Nassar’s sentencing hearings. In asking the judges to impose the maximum sentence on Nassar, Denhollander said, “How much is a little girl worth?”^[She answered her own question: “These victims are worth everything … I plead with you to impose the maximum sentence under the plea agreement because everything is what these survivors are worth.”In Ingham County, Judge Rosemarie Aquilina said Denhollander “built an army of survivors”^[and called her “a five-star general.”^[Aquilina also said Denhollander was “the bravest person I have ever had in my courtroom.”

THE ISSUE OF ABUSE IN THE CHURCH

QUESTIONS TO PONDER- Is the use of the “5 star general” who assembled an “Army of the Abused ” in the Nassar case- now heading the same KIND of effort among Southern Baptist? If so, as it appears, is this being done right out of its Flagship Seminary SBTS?Could this reality be just a matter of happenstance? Can Baptist assume that these associations JUST SO HAPPENED to develop and become weaponized against the church in the same way the Nassar case developed- by some of the same people- all within Albert Mohler’s SBTS circles?

VALID ABUSE AND COVERUPS

There is no doubt the church has had a history of both abuse and problems with how abuse is handled. Yet evidence is compelling that something more was going on -at least in the Southern Baptist sudden visitation of the issue in a highly publicised and ongoing controversy filled with accusations of coverup, corruption and collusion.

But COMPELLING and disturbing appearance EXIST of some high level COLLUDING of a different sort- at the flagship SBC seminary.

WE HAVE TO ASK -WAS “GOD’S WRATH BEING POURED OUT ON THE SBC” OR WAS THE #CHURCHTOO VISITATION A COORDINATED EFFORT FROM SBTS?

(Jacob Denhollander leaving SBTS Southern Baptist seminary

after 11 years. )

Jacob Denhollander tweeted out the SBC “Wrath of God ..”story on May 23rd as well:

Jacob Denhollander

@JJ_Denhollander “I am extremely grateful to see these words from the president of my school, albertmohler. There is much more work to do and many more hard conversations to be had @R_Denhollander and I hope to be helpful in anyway we can.”

FROM THE MOHLER “WRATH OF GOD ” ON THE SBC ARTICLE

“America’s largest evangelical denomination has been in the headlines day after day. The SBC is in the midst of its own horrifying #MeToo moment.”

“At one of our seminaries, controversy has centered on a president (now former president) whose sermon illustration from years ago included advice that a battered wife remain in the home and the marriage in hope of the conversion of her abusive husband. Other comments represented the objectification of a teenage girl. The issues only grew more urgent with the sense that the dated statements represented ongoing advice and counsel.”

“But the issues are far deeper and wider.”

MOHLER DISCUSSED HAVING BROUGHT IN THE DENHOLLANDERS TO HANDLE SBTS OWN SEX ABUSE CASE (S)

Statement from R. Albert Mohler Jr. on Sovereign Grace Churches

R. Albert Mohler, Jr. — February 15, 2019

“When this issue resurfaced a year ago, I was made painfully aware of my serious mistakes. I immediately urged that an independent investigation be conducted and agreed that CJ (Mahaney) needed to step down from public ministry until that took place. This resulted in a severing of all personal and ministry ties, and I have had no relationship with CJ or SGC since that time.”

“I was deeply affected by the documentation offered by Rachael Denhollander. I met with Jacob and Rachael soon after she released the documentation and I have deeply appreciated her counsel. That first conversation fundamentally changed my understanding of this issue.”

IN HIS OWN WORDS- MOHLER TURNED TO THE DENHOLLANDERS FOR HELP. & HE ENCOURAGES THE “PRESSURE” TO BE MAINTAINED !

 “I should have sought advice and counsel of agencies and authorities and experts who were even then on the front lines of dealing with these kinds of allegations.”

 “Some will question whether the force of public pressure explains the timing of my statement and its public nature. In all candor, this pressure is no doubt part of that explanation. That fact should serve to encourage survivors and their advocates to maintain such pressure.”

THE DENHOLLANDERS AND SBTS -SOME HISTORY :

According to Jacob the couple have been at SBTS for over a decade

Photo from Jacob Denhollander social media of his SBTS graduation

Jacob Denhollander @JJ_Denhollander Dec 9, 2022

“After 11 years, two degrees, and a lot of life, my time @SBTS is over. Forever grateful to these professors for the way I have grown as a scholar and as a man. It’s a bittersweet day as I move on to finish my PhD elsewhere, but part of me will always be at Southern.”

CONSIDER THE DECADE PLUS OF THE DENHOLLANDERS PRESENCE AT SBTS AND JACOB DENHOLLANDER’S WORK THERE:

Jacobs published academic papers at SBTS date back to at least 2015 confirming that his work at SBTS has been focuses on abuse and reconciling things like “Feminist Theology ” and its hatred of the atonement with the Gospel. His other public academic studies appear to have been focused on Abuse as well. So since a least 2015 – WHILE the Nassar case was being prosecuted and Rachael Denhollander has played a major role developing that case and become known as “a five star general” – “assembling and army of victims” She and her husband have been at Albert Mohler’s SBTS seminary focusing on Sex Abuse from a theological framework.

As manager of the SBC Hotline for Guidepost Solutions and working directly with multiple other SBC entities in multiple capacities “The General ” not only looks to be wearing too many hats but positioned to assemble a new army for the assault on the Southern Baptist Convedntion.

REDEMPTION OR ABUSE? CONSIDERING ATONEMENT IN LIGHTOF FEMINIST CRITIQUES

The history of Feminist Theology is Anti- Gospel and Anti- Family and Anti- conventional Conservative Theology . It is certainly against the Baptist Faith and Message. Feminists theologians INSIST that theology has been developed not just by males, but by males within a patriarchal culture in a patriarchal church which is rife with systemic abuse of women by men who subordinate and exploit them.

Feminist Theology resist the use of male pronouns for God – Assaults the role of women in the home and the biblical call for women to submit to their husbands. Feminist theology calls the Nuclear Family and IDOL which must be taken down and replaced. Feminine Theology seeks to subvert and usurp the role of men in leadership which is specifically counter to the Apostle Paul’s inspired instructions for family and church life.

Feminist Theology seeks to deconstruct ALL Biblical concepts of family and church and leadership -promotes the demands for all churches to ordain women in senior leadership and EVEN goes so far as to attempt to feminize God.

THE PROBLEMS WITH THESE ASSERTIONS AND ASSUMPTIONS VS THE GOSPEL OF REPENTANCE AND FORGIVENESS ARE GLARING AND LEGION.

Yet at SBTS Jacob Denhollander appears to have been commissioned or allowed to dedicate his academic pursuits and papers, obtaining his degrees, to erasing or merging the polar opposites of feminist theology and the Gospel /Good News and the Great Commission which once was said to occupied Southern Baptist life and ministry.

Justice for Victims is the new gospel !

“The #MeToo moment has come to American evangelicals. This moment has come to some of my friends and brothers in Christ. This moment has come to me, and I am called to deal with it as a Christian, as a minister of the Gospel, as a seminary and college president, and as a public leader. I pray that I will lead rightly.” …”This is just a foretaste of the wrath of God poured out. This moment requires the very best of us. The Southern Baptist Convention is on trial and our public credibility is at stake. May God have mercy on us all.” Albert Mohler .

“I would love to see this. Humbled and thankful.”

IN 2018 BOTH JACOB AND RACHAEL PRESENTED AN SBTS PAPER ON ABUSE JUSTICE AT THE 70TH ANNUAL EVANGELICAL THEOLOGICAL SOCIETY MEETINGS IN DENVER COLORADO

“JUSTICE: THE FOUNDATION OF A CHRISTIAN APPROACH TO ABUSE”

“In this paper, we seek to establish that evangelicals possess the theological truths needed to bring comfort, hope and truth to survivors of abuse, predicated on a proper understanding of justice as seen in the atonement and character of the Triune God. We examine the claim that penal, substitutionary understandings of the atonement are pictures of abuse and argue that, properly understood, these understandings of the atonement instead provide a basis for rejecting the power dynamics that underlay all forms of abuse.”

SBTS , Albert Mohler and the Denhollanders have played a significant role in the development of the ideology of “humiliation” , contrition and JUSTICE in the SBC abuse scandal and response. AGAIN -Jacob has been able to use his academic studies and papers to reconcile the anti gospel- anti forgiveness – pro prosecution and pro justice of FEMINIST THEOLOGY with the Southern Baptist once Biblical view of repentance , forgiveness, and RESTORATION. Does this mean these biblical ideals must take a back seat to JUSTICE?

MOHLER AND HIS DISCIPLES SHOW UP REPEATEDLY IN THE SBC ABUSE ISSUE.

Mohler disciple Russell Moore immediately commissioned Rachael Denhollander to help with his “Caring Well ” brand building in the ERLC/ SBC response to sex abuse.

Russell Moore and Denhollander at ERLC’s Caring well Conference -abuse “response “

Moore also echoed Mohler’s “Wrath of God “in 2022

This Is the Southern Baptist Apocalypse

“The abuse investigation has uncovered more evil than even I imagined.”

MOHLER HAD PREVIOUSLY FEATURED THE “GOSPEL DRIVEN TESTIMONY” OF DENHOLLANDER AT THE NASSAR SENTENCING IN THE BRIEFING .

“An amazing testimony to the gospel, to the reality of good and evil, and to Christian truth in a Michigan courtroom” THE BRIEFING -THURSDAY, JAN. 25, 2018

(Perhaps HERE Mohler is SKILLFULLY putting TO USE the reconciled NARRATIVE merging Feminist Theologies demand for JUSTICE and prosecution to the fullest extent of the law with a “Gospel Testimony” by Rachael Denhollander. The reader can determine that for themselves )

MOHLER IN THE BRIEFING IN HIGH PRAISE OF THE COUPLE WHO HAVE MADE THIER HOME IN HIS SBTS CIRCLES AS THE NASSAR CASE HAS UNFOLDED. ODD-HE NEVER MENTIONS THAT FACT.

TWO IMPORTANT EXCERPTS AND THE FULL MOHLER STATEMENT ON MRS. DENHOLLANDER’S “GOSPEL TESTIMONY IN THE COURTROOM:

“Rachael Denhollander. In her statement concerning the sentencing of Dr. Nassar, she not only spoke eloquently from the deep reservoirs of a Christian worldview, but she spoke directly to the doctor with the power of the Christian gospel.”

MOHLER ASSERTS THE DEEP CHRISTIAN WORLDVIEW & GOSPEL REFLECTED – THEN

“Those are words very difficult to hear, very difficult to read, very difficult to say. They are difficult words we need to hear, and of course they are difficult words that have the ring and the authenticity of biblical truth. This is the kind of argument that can only emerge from Christian conviction and from the Christian biblical worldview. The references here to good and evil, to right and wrong, to a straight line of judgment, most importantly the references to sin and guilt, the necessity of repentance and the substitutionary atonement of Christ and the promise of salvation, all of this only makes sense, it is only coherent if everything revealed in the Scripture is true.”

“BIBLICAL WORLD VIEW- CHRISTIAN CONVICTION- & SUBSTITUTIONARY ATONEMENT “

Again the Jacob Denhollader 2015 paper reconciling Feminist Theology with the Gospel primary task is to deal with feminist theologies hatred for  Penal Substitutionary Atonement (PSA).

Excerpt :Denhollander on  Penal Substitutionary Atonement (PSA)

“Rita Nakashima Brock famously labelled any model of atonement in which Jesus is subjected to punishment to satisfy God as “cosmic child abuse” ^[1] – a sobering and disturbing claim that has embedded itself in contemporary discussions about the atonement and has been accepted by many theologians as necessitating a careful re-formulation, if not outright rejection of, traditional models of atonement.^[2] Penal Substitutionary Atonement (PSA), with its emphasis on the wrath of God against sin and the justification of sinners through the substitutionary death of Jesus on the cross, is especially criticized as modeling abuse and making a virtue of suffering.”

           ” Most defenses of PSA against this characterization focus on the way feminists have misunderstood or caricaturized PSA, and seek to demonstrate that Christ’s substitutionary death, rightly understood, does not explicitly or implicitly encourage abuse. While useful, I intend to go beyond a mere defense of the atonement and demonstrate that far from condoning abuse, a properly Trinitarian articulation of PSA can be used to address the problem of abuse by radically confronting the sinful view of authority and power that always lies behind abuse.”

MOHLER EVEN GETS IN HER COMING BOOK TITLE

“She then asked the question,”

“how much is a little girl worth?”

FULL COMMENTS BY MOHLER IN PRAISE OF DENHOLLANDER “GOSPEL”.

HERE:

 “The woman whose accusations broke the story and eventually broke the doctor was a young woman by the name now of Rachael Denhollander. In her statement concerning the sentencing of Dr. Nassar, she not only spoke eloquently from the deep reservoirs of a Christian worldview, but she spoke directly to the doctor with the power of the Christian gospel. The words of this young woman bear our close attention. The doctor as he was being sentenced was carrying a Bible visibly. That was considered by many of the victims to be manipulative with the doctor effectively using the Bible as a prop in order to engender sympathy during his sentencing hearing. But Mrs. Denhollander pointed to the Bible that Dr. Nassar had, and then she said bravely,”

“If you have read the Bible you carry, you know the definition of sacrificial love portrayed is of God himself loving so sacrificially that he gave up everything to pay a penalty for the sin he did not commit. By his grace, I, too, choose to love this way.”

“Later referencing the Bible again, she spoke of absolute truth and the objective reality of right and wrong. She said and I quote,”

“the Bible you carry says it is better for a stone to be thrown around your neck and you throw into a lake than for you to make even one child stumble. And you have damaged hundreds. The Bible,” she said conveys the message of, “final judgment where all of God’s wrath and eternal terror is poured out on men like you. Should,” she said, “you ever reach the point of truly facing what you have done, the guilt will be crushing. And that is what makes the gospel of Christ so sweet. Because it extends grace and hope and mercy where none should be found. And it will be there for you.”

“She said,”

“I pray you experience the soul crushing weight of guilt so you may someday experience true repentance and true forgiveness from God, which you need far more than forgiveness from me,” she said though she bravely continued, “though I extend that to you as well.”

“Speaking again of the reality of right and wrong of evil and good, she said,”

“Larry, I can call what you did evil and wicked because it was. And I know it was evil and wicked because the straight line exists. The straight line is not measured based on your perception or anyone else’s perception, and this means I can speak the truth about my abuse without minimization or mitigation. And I can call it evil because I know what goodness is. And this is why I pity you. Because when a person loses the ability to define good and evil, when they cannot define evil, they can no longer define and enjoy what is truly good. When a person can harm another human being, especially a child, without true guilt, they have lost the ability to truly love.”

“She continued by saying to the doctor,”

“Larry, you have shut yourself off from every truly beautiful and good thing in this world that could have and should have brought you joy and fulfillment, and I pity you for it. You could have had everything you pretended to be. Every woman who stood up here truly loved you as an innocent child, real genuine love for you, and it did not satisfy.”

“Then addressing the judge Mrs. Denhollander said,”

“I ask that you hand down a sentence that tells us that what was done to us matters, that we are known, we are worth everything, worth the greatest protection the law can offer, the greatest measure of justice available.”

She then asked the question,

“how much is a little girl worth?”

“Those are words very difficult to hear, very difficult to read, very difficult to say. They are difficult words we need to hear, and of course they are difficult words that have the ring and the authenticity of biblical truth. This is the kind of argument that can only emerge from Christian conviction and from the Christian biblical worldview. The references here to good and evil, to right and wrong, to a straight line of judgment, most importantly the references to sin and guilt, the necessity of repentance and the substitutionary atonement of Christ and the promise of salvation, all of this only makes sense, it is only coherent if everything revealed in the Scripture is true. And as we consider this story that is now so much a part of the American attention and conversation today, we need to be thankful as this judge was thankful for young women who were brave enough to accuse this doctor so esteemed and respected throughout the Olympic community of what he had done and to stay by their story and to make it stick consistently testifying in order to bring about not only a criminal conviction but the end to this kind of abuse that endangered so many others.”

“Then addressing the first of those young women to speak up Rachel Denhollander, the judge said,”

“You started the tidal wave. You made all of this happen. You made all of these voices matter. Your sister survivors and I thank you. You are the bravest person I have ever had in my courtroom.”

“But what so many in the world missed is that the moral clarity that was so evident in that courtroom yesterday cannot really emerge from a secular worldview. It can only emerge from a biblical worldview. And yesterday it wasn’t just the witness to good and evil that appeared. In the voice of Rachel Denhollander, there was a powerful witness to the Gospel of Jesus Christ, the Gospel that speaks so honestly about sin, and the Gospel that so honestly promises in Christ salvation from sin.”

ACCORDING TO THE WIFE OF THE FIRST INVESTIGATIVE SBC TASK FORCE LEADER ALBERT MOHLER MADE A SURPRISE VISIT TO THEIR NC CHURCH BEFORE THE FIRST TASK FORCE WAS FINALIZED .

“Distinguished visitor this morning at @biltmore. Unassuming, unannounced, thus uncelebrated, until he walked up to @BruceFrank1 in the lobby after service with kindness and encouragement. Honored to have@albertmohler worship with us this reformation day.” OCTOBER 31ST 2021

CONCLUSIONS :

Albert Mohler and SBTS ,along with other individuals and entities in the SBTS and Guidepost Solutions are the target of a lawsuit themselves in the pushback from the SBC #churchtoo abuse “investigation “.

ARE OTHERS SEEING THE PROBLEMS WITH HOW THE SBC HAVE HANDLED #CHURCHTOO MOVEMENT?

IT APPEARS SO –

MOBILE, Ala. (BP) – “A former Southern Baptist seminary professor and his wife have filed suit against the SBC and 10 other individuals and entities connected to the SBC, including Jennifer Lyell and Guidepost Solutions.”

“In a filing made in the Mobile, Ala., Circuit Court, David and Mary Sills allege “defamation, conspiracy, intentional infliction of emotional distress, negligence, and wantonness concerning untrue claims of sexual abuse” initiated by Jennifer Lyell.”

Named in the Sills’ defamation suit are:

• The Southern Baptist Convention
• Ed Litton, former SBC president
• Bart Barber, current SBC president
• Willie McLaurin, interim SBC Executive Committee (EC) president/CEO
• Rolland Slade, former chair of the SBC EC
• Jennifer Lyell
• The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary (SBTS)
• Albert Mohler, SBTS president
• Lifeway
• Eric Geiger, former Lifeway executive
• Guidepost Solutions, a third-party investigative firm secured in 2021 by the Sexual Abuse Task Force

“It also accuses the SBC, Lifeway, Jennifer Lyell, Eric Geiger, the EC, Ed Litton, Willie McLaurin, Rolland Slade, SBTS and Mohler of “making an example out of SBC member and employee David Sills who, without controversy, had admitted to an affair with Lyell and willingly accepted the SBC requirement that he depart from his position at the Seminary.”

“The suit claims these parties “saw an opportunity to improve the appearance and reputation of (the) SBC’s handling of abuse cases, long under fire, even though there had not been any legitimate and proper investigation into the allegations, nor was Dr. Sills adequately informed of the specific nature and extent of accusations made by Lyell.”

WHAT THE GOSPEL- THE CHURCH AND THE CHRISTIAN FAITH ARE NOT !!!

The Christian , nuclear family is NOT an IDOL as Feminist Theology, Russell Moore , Nate Collins Sam Allberry and other Baptist activist assert and does not need to be “replaced by an inclusive church as the family”

Church is the Body of Christ and the assembly of the first born – who have been forgiven- and have forgiven those who sin against them.It is not an assembly of victims seeking justice. Instead they are justified by the Blood of Christ – for all have sinned against the offended party which in the true Gospel is God.

The Gospel is the Good News that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself in His Son Jesus and that Good News does not need useful tools from the Frankfurt School or seminary students devoting time and study and entire careers to uniting critical theory narratives with Bible verses and theological concepts to form a new gospel. How is this known? Because such narratives are not the the Gospel at all.

Atonement is a sacred work within the HOLY realm of Triune God and impacts mankind only in that God has opened the doors for mankind to reap its bountiful mercy and taste of eternal life…knowing the forgiveness of sin by it. It has no need of nuance nor refining and adaptation for application in a modern society or among its activist “causes”.

Forgiveness is a non option for the Christian based on having been forgiven and on laying down ones own life for others as Jesus has laid down His life for all sinners. The Gospels and Forgiveness serve God’s JUSTICE – not ours and Vengeance belongs to Him alone. He will repay. The offer of forgiveness and the choice to show mercy are God’s and we are called to forgive as He forgives based on the Blood of Jesus.

There is no room for demands for Justice at the foot of the cross.

Some biblical food for thought :

Matthew 6:8-15

⁸ “Therefore do not be like them. For your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him. ⁹ In this manner, therefore, pray:

Our Father in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name.
¹⁰ Your kingdom come.
Your will be done
On earth as it is in heaven.
¹¹ Give us this day our daily bread.
¹² And forgive us our debts,
As we forgive our debtors.
¹³ And do not lead us into temptation,
But deliver us from the evil one.
^[For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.

¹⁴ “For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. ¹⁵ But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.”

Matthew 18

The Parable of the Unforgiving Servant

²¹ Then Peter came to Him and said, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?”

²² Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven. ²³ Therefore the kingdom of heaven is like a certain king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants. ²⁴ And when he had begun to settle accounts, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents. ²⁵ But as he was not able to pay, his master commanded that he be sold, with his wife and children and all that he had, and that payment be made. ²⁶ The servant therefore fell down before him, saying, ‘Master, have patience with me, and I will pay you all.’ ²⁷ Then the master of that servant was moved with compassion, released him, and forgave him the debt.

²⁸ “But that servant went out and found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii; and he laid hands on him and took him by the throat, saying, ‘Pay me what you owe!’ ²⁹ So his fellow servant fell down ^[e]at his feet and begged him, saying, ‘Have patience with me, and I will pay you ^[f]all.’ ³⁰ And he would not, but went and threw him into prison till he should pay the debt. ³¹ So when his fellow servants saw what had been done, they were very grieved, and came and told their master all that had been done. ³² Then his master, after he had called him, said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you begged me. ³³ Should you not also have had compassion on your fellow servant, just as I had pity on you?’ ³⁴ And his master was angry, and delivered him to the torturers until he should pay all that was due to him.

LUKE 6

Love Your Enemies

²⁷ “But I say to you who hear: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, ²⁸ bless those who curse you, and pray for those who spitefully use you. ²⁹ To him who strikes you on the one cheek, offer the other also. And from him who takes away your cloak, do not withhold your tunic either. ³⁰ Give to everyone who asks of you. And from him who takes away your goods do not ask them back. ³¹ And just as you want men to do to you, you also do to them likewise.

³² “But if you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them. ³³ And if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same. ³⁴ And if you lend to those from whom you hope to receive back, what credit is that to you? For even sinners lend to sinners to receive as much back. ³⁵ But love your enemies, do good, and lend, ^[d]hoping for nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High. For He is kind to the unthankful and evil. ³⁶ Therefore be merciful, just as your Father also is merciful.

Luke 23:34-36New King James Version

^34 [a]Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.”

And they divided His garments and cast lots. ³⁵ And the people stood looking on. But even the rulers with them sneered, saying, “He saved others; let Him save Himself if He is the Christ, the chosen of God.”

³⁶ The soldiers also mocked Him…..

James 2:13-15New King James Version

¹³ For judgment is without mercy to the one who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.

Abuse of any kind and all kinds cries out for justice like the blood of
Able from the ground after being murdered by his own brother . Abuse that is unlawful in mans courts and the prosecution and penalty for it are to be settled in mans courts NOT in the church lead by members with movements of problematic origin and grinding out other agendas in and against the church.

When the church embraces the role of dispensing JUSTICE over race or abuse or sexuality or identity or any number of social change causes – is has lost its vision and eternal purpose.

Mercy is the message of the Cross against the backdrop of mans rejection of and hatred toward God and God’s pending judgement on all who do wickedly and love a lie. Suspended in the convergence God’s TRUTH , of sin and wrath and God’s Divine Judgement and the desperate inability of man to save himself- God provided Himself a Lamb to take away the sins of the World. THIS dear friends is the Gospel-

The blow due to us- all of US -abused and abusers and activist and indifferent – fell on HIM.

Psalm 85:10New King James Version

¹⁰ Mercy and truth have met together;
Righteousness and peace have kissed.

SIGNIFICANT NUMBERS OF SOUTHERN BAPTIST LEADERSHIP HAVE BEEN PLAYING A LONG GAME TO TRANSFORM THEIR MOVEMENT. LIKE ALINSKY TRAINED RADICALS THESE MEN AND WOMEN ARE NOT LETTING THE SEX ABUSE CRISIS GO TO WASTE.

State , corporate and soon CHURCH mandated DE&I transformation is a form of Cultural Cannibalism and it is coming soon to every aspect of your life- including your FAITH.

Rev Thomas Littleton

12/29/2022

In 2018 the perfect storm for progressives feminist and minority status activist was visited upon the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) bearing the title #MeToo. Soon the name morphed into the #churchtoo movement and from that moment forward the SBC has been locked into a deadly coerced and forced march toward Diversity Equity & Inclusion Compliance. Like altering the ingredients in an old family recipe -#MeToo driven DE&I uses Women because they are the largest minority group . But the movement template then expands the issues to cover race and sexual orientation , gender identity, disabled , and the gamut of finely honed critical theory narratives , professional victims and highly funded advocacy groups. Here is what that means-looks and smells like for Christians and the Church. Keep in mind that as the largest Protestant denomination /movement in America (the SBC) goes- so goes the church in America .

First the need for the SBC “Investigation ” is always blamed on the SBC messengers at the annual conventions resulting from manipulated voting but make no mistake ,from every indicator -the use of the “Sex Abuse Scandal Investigation, which is now a massive scandal of its own, is a top down- inside -agenda driven bit of theater which has little or nothing to do with actual victims of abuse.

How the narrative goes in the media “The group tasked by the members ( yep so this is the members?…not really) of the Southern Baptist Convention with creating policies to address sexual abuse within the denomination has shared an update on their work and reaffirmed their commitment to “helping churches prevent sexual abuse and minister well to abuse survivors.”

(NOTE: No doubt abuse has taken place and some of it has been covered up for decades by the good ole boy network and 1tth commandment among some Baptist. This abuse and corruption includes “Big Face Baptist” and small church staffers and victims including women and children. The hard reality is that the almost monthly news of the next child abuser arrested in a church is largely ignored in the SBC / Guidepost Solutions “Investigation” in favor of high profile cases involving women who are becoming part of the united victim coalition of activist pushing DE&I as the answer. The fact that many of the arrest of abusers points to the problem that pedophile and homosexual abuse has been a significant part of the problem..the impression is that such abuse does not seem to fit the goals of the crisis. DE&I outcomes are not designed to address pedophilia and would never target LGBTQ for investigations . It is quiet the opposite .Make no mistake – victims mean little in the outcome objectives once “investigations” turn to feed political parasites and are drivers of “social change” in the “host”institution . That is what the SBC crisis looks to have been from the start. The SBC abuse investigation set to become a feeding frenzy for bottom feeders and the platform for victory laps by selected victims and inside religious deconstructionist . )

SBC HISTORY AND INVESTIGATION THE VICTIMHOOD EMPOWERED

SBC SECOND TASK FORCE IN AS MANY YEARS ISSUES AN UPDATE

Task Force Update  (Dec ‘22)

Dec 22

“The Abuse Reform Implementation Task Force met Monday, December 12, in Nashville to continue to work on identifying and implementing reform measures as instructed by the Messengers at the 2022 SBC Annual Meeting in Anaheim. In our last update, the ARITF established three priorities for the first phase of its work:”

• The retaining of an individual or firm who is qualified and trauma-informed to receive reports of abuse or mishandling of abuse, determine the proper entity, association or church to respond to that report, and communicate this report to the relevant parties.
• The creation of the Ministry Check database, which will house the names of those credibly accused of sexual abuse in order to ensure thorough information flow throughout the Convention and better resource churches to protect their congregations.
• Assisting the Credentials Committee in retaining a qualified firm to assist them in their processes and in performing factual inquiries related to sexual abuse. As of right now, more than 200 referrals have been made to the Credentials Committee related to SBC churches and it is imperative that we equip and resource our CC members to respond to these reports.”

“At present, the ARITF has held three in-person meetings and continued to work diligently between meetings to advance the priority items identified above. This work has included numerous meetings and interviews with SBC leaders, SBC Credentials Committee members and personnel, and leading experts in investigations, abuse prevention and response, and cyber and technological security. “

“As a result, the ARITF has made progress toward the items specified above. In addition, these efforts have also allowed the ARITF to identify specific processes and reform measures which remain in need of either creation or revision. Additionally, through this work the ARITF has also identified numerous outside groups that may provide needed assistance for SBC churches and entities in their efforts to prevent and respond to instances of sexual abuse.”

Pertaining to the priority items, the ARITF will continue to consider the best long-term option for the SBC to receive reports of abuse or mishandling of abuse. At this time, the ARITF with the assistance of key SBC leaders has agreed to maintain the hotline and email notification system to receive and document these reports. The ARITF has also worked diligently to determine the specific nature and functions of the Ministry Check database and to identify a capable and qualified database administrator. The ARITF continues to work closely with the Credentials Committee to address these and other issues. Finally, as indicated above, the ARITF has met with multiple third-parties to identify and ultimately make recommendations to the Credentials Committee and SBC churches and entities with potential companies or firms capable of performing investigations or inquiries as needed.”

“As we continue our own work, the ARITF wishes to affirm the efforts of so many of our State Conventions to help set standards for churches and provide resources for churches to prevent abuse and care for survivors. These state-level and local reforms are critical for creating a convention-wide culture of prevention and care.”

THE INVESTIGATION THE FIRMS AND GUIDEPOST SOLUTIONS

“Vision Statement -A mosaic of diversity and innovation.”

SBC -GUIDEPOST SOLUTIONS INVESTIGATION + REPORT

---

• In response to requests, the SBC Executive Committee has released the list of pastors and other church-affiliated personnel accused of sexual abuse. This 205-page database was made public May 26, 2022. It includes more than 700 entries from cases that largely span from 2000 to 2019.
• The release statement is available on the SBC website.
• The Report of the Independent Investigation is now available from the Task Force.

On September 9, 2021, the Task Force announced that Guidepost Solutions was retained to conduct the independent assessment and investigation regarding the Executive Committee of the SBC, as commissioned by the Messengers of the Convention at the 2021 SBC annual meeting. Pursuant to the Letter of Engagement, Guidepost’s mandate is as follows:

Specifically, and as directed by the SBC Motion, Guidepost investigated:

• Allegations of abuse by Executive Committee members
• Mishandling of abuse allegations by Executive Committee members between January 1, 2000, to June 14, 2021
• Allegations of mistreatment of sexual abuse victims by Executive Committee members from January 1, 2000, to June 14, 2021
• Patterns of intimidation of sexual abuse victims or advocates from January 1, 2000, to June 14, 2021
• Resistance to sexual abuse reform initiatives from January 1, 2000, to June 14, 2021

In addition, Guidepost performed an audit of the procedures and actions of the Credentials Committee after its formation in mid-June 2019, using best standards and practices designed to ensure accountability, transparency, and care for the wellbeing of survivors of sexual abuse.

Additional information regarding the Task Force and the scope of the investigation can be found here.

A press release announcing the retention of Guidepost can be found here.

GUIDEPOST SOLUTIONS DE&I CULTURE AND CURRENT SCANDAL OF THEIR OWN.

Guidepost Solutions ,armed with 5 allied law firms ALL DEEPLY COMMITTED TO DE&I CULTURAL TRANSFORMATION among clients , were hired to “Investigate the SBC Sex Abuse” The DOJ , where many Guidepost Solutions employees have worked in the past launched its own investigation in August 2022.

For MORE on Guidepost DE&I tainted investigation read here “

BAPTIST LEADERS WAKE UP AFTER GUIDEPOST SOLUTIONS TWEET BUT IGNORE SBC TASK FORCE LAW FIRM WITH SAME RADICAL AGENDA .

GUIDEPOST SOLUTIONS IS NOW BEING SUED FOR THE BOTCHED INVESTIGATION

Guidepost is now named in a massive lawsuit along with past and present SBC Presidents, entity heads, several entities, seminaries, their heads AND the SBC publishing arm Lifeway accusing those named of using what some believe to be an 8 year consensual affair that might not have happened as to target the accused male- a now fired SBTS professor – as a “SCAPEGOAT” in the published investigation. It is stated that Guidepost nor its investigators even interviewed the accused before centering much of it’s investigation results around this case since it involved a high ranking SBC female executive. Yes SEEDY business, Apologies .

More here on the lawsuit if needed:

( From Christianity Today coverage of the story )

“David Sills was repentant and obedient to the rules of the SBC,” the complaint alleges. “Defendants saw him as an easy target; a bona fide scapegoat.”

“The complaint names Southern seminary and Mohler, as well as the SBC’s Executive Committee, SBC President Bart Barber, and his predecessor Ed Litton as defendants, along with several other leaders. Also named as a defendant is Lifeway Christian Resources, a research and publishing arm of the SBC, and Guidepost Solutions.”

“It also names Jennifer Lyell, a former seminarian and vice president for Lifeway, who has repeatedly alleged that Sills was abusive, an allegation Mohler has also made on social media and in an interview for a documentary about the denomination’s response to its sexual abuse crisis.”

“Guidepost “perpetuated a false narrative in a Report, in exchange for payment and in concert with Defendants,” all of which ruined Sill’s reputation and labeled him as an abuser, according to the complaint.”

“Guidepost declined to comment, as did Lyell. The SBC Executive Committee and several other SBC leaders did not immediately respond to requests for comment.”

WHAT DE&I LOOKS LIKE IN CORPORATE CULTURE

“For anyone working in a large corporation ,a university of a government agency at any level since the BLM riots of 2020 the DE&I metrics , training and cultural transformation tactics are very familiar. But imagine THESE tactics and “VALUES” being applied to and in the church of the lining God and missions organizations both global and domestic and even in disaster relief efforts partnering with FEMA and REd Cross. That is already happening. “

PUBLIC UTILITY MUST PLAY TO BOTH DE&I CULTURE CHANGE & CLIMATE CHANGE

Remember that public utility companies are both mandated political climate policy requirements and guaranteed profits by legislative acts. These companies in turn use hundreds of millions in those profits extracted from the public to force DE&I on their employees, their families, corporate scholarships, education , political lobbying and local communities where their grants are much sought after. This makes for a never ending-circular- form on insanity for progressivism feeding on itself at public expense to the detriment of the local community with the ever raising bar of expectations for compliance.

A LOOK AT DE&I IN SOUTHERN COMPANY A UTILITY COMPANY IN THE SOUTHEAST.

“Moving to Equity”

“For years, striving toward equity has been part of Southern Company’s focus on building a healthy company and culture. We work diligently to prevent inequity in our company and to ensure a fair and just culture across the entire organization. We are committed to an equitable and inclusive workplace that mirrors the diverse communities we serve. We are proud of our ongoing pledge to foster racial justice and of our place as a role model among companies forging social change.”

“Recently, we have refocused our efforts toward a more holistic goal of diversity, equity and inclusion, helping to ensure all groups are welcomed, well represented, engaged and fairly treated throughout the organization. Following events in 2020 highlighting racial injustice in our society, we published Moving to Racial Equity, a complete framework which confirms our collective commitment to this topic. In addition, in 2021 we published a Transformation Report updating stakeholders on our progress toward key goals.”

Key efforts and commitments include:

• Talent: “committing to a diverse, equitable and inclusive workplace to better serve our customers and communities; increasing and improving outreach, recruitment, hiring and retention of diverse groups at all levels of the workforce; ensuring equity in leadership development programs; and seeking diverse candidate slates for all positions, including management roles.
• Culture: promoting an actively anti-racist culture to ensure that all groups, especially historically underrepresented and marginalized groups, are well-represented, included and fairly treated within all levels of the organization, and that everyone feels welcomed, valued and respected.
• Community: committing $225 million over five years to advance racial equity and social justice in our communities with a focus on criminal justice, economic empowerment, the advancement of educational equality and energy justice.
• Political Engagement: advocating for racial equity through our political engagement, policy positions and ongoing public dialogues. 
• Suppliers: aiming to increase our minority business enterprise spend to 20% and total diverse spend to 30% by 2025, and committing to developing and doing business with more Black-owned businesses in our industry and communities.”

“Southern Company must hold itself accountable to the commitments and pledges it has made. To do this, we expect all employees across the Southern Company system to embrace these overarching racial equity pillars, commit to continuous personal education on the topic, engage in open dialogue with teammates and hold each other accountable for our success. We have also established a communication framework that firmly positions our racial equity and social justice efforts central to Our Values. We have engaged PwC to conduct an external audit of this initiative to uncover any high priority systemic issues and evaluate the identified metrics and key performance indicators as proxies for sustaining the desired behaviors and practices consistent with an inclusive company culture. Finally, we have pledged to review Our Values, evaluate additional diagnostics, further define our initiatives and develop an employee feedback loop to supplement the existing equity efforts underway.”

“It is our sincere hope that these accountability steps will strengthen Southern Company’s implementation plans and capabilities around equity. “

SOUTHERN COMPANY DE&I ALSO INCLUDES PRIDE

“DE&I Manager Aby Parsons and 2022 PRIDE Power president Justin Averette talk about what Pride means and building an inclusive workplace.”

SOUTHERN COMPANY PANDERS TO RADICAL HRC “EQUALITY INDEX”.

“For the second year in a row, Southern Company was named one of the Best Places to Work for LGBTQ Equality by the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), scoring 100 percent on its 2018 Corporate Equality Index.”

“HRC is the largest lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) civil rights organization in the U.S., representing more than 3 million members and supporters nationwide. HRC envisions a world where LGBTQ people are embraced as full members of society at home, at work and in every community.”

“Patrick Scarborough, compliance and technology services manager for Southern Company Services, has been a member and supporter of HRC for many years. Scarborough recently completed a two-year term on the organization’s board of directors and begins his second term with the same enthusiasm and drive to make meaningful change.”

SOUTHERN COMPANY FINANCIAL COMMITMENT TO DE&I

“We find ourselves at a critical moment in history when very necessary and
important discussions about racism and racial injustice are taking place. The
killings of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbrey, Rayshard Brooks and
many other Black Americans awakened a growing recognition of the cumulative
and compounded effects of systemic racial barriers and bias across institutions
and society.”
“At Southern Company, we are confronting these issues head-on. We have created
the following framework to guide all our businesses as we engage in this process and
to ensure a continued and coordinated focus on this work. This framework confirms
our collective commitment to racial equity, which is a process of preventing racial
disparities where they exist and ensuring fair access, opportunities and outcomes for
everyone. It is the intentional and continual practice of evaluating and instituting
policies, practices, systems and structures that prioritize measurable change in the
lives of people of color.”
“We are committed to be a role model among companies forging change.”

COMMUNITY
“Southern Company and its Charitable
Foundations are committing $200 million
over five years to advance racial equity
and social justice in our communities.”

NOTE- Again all these activities by a public utility are part of the new standard for corporate culture BUT the profits being poured into these DE&I push programs are from legislative act guaranteed profits from mandated spending driven not only by development and upgrading grids and infrastructure but also by “climate change” activism and “global goals” political policies.

This is Cultural Cannibalism .

AN OVERVIEW OF THE HOW DE&i IS FORCED ON CORPORATIONS AND ESCALATED SINCE BLM RIOTS OF 2020

FROM “JUST CAPITAL” AN ACTIVIST ORGANIZATIONS POLICING CORPORATE INVESTMENT IN DE&I

“In the two years since the killing of George Floyd and other Black Americans ignited a national reckoning with racial injustice, dozens of America’s largest companies have made unprecedented commitments to advancing racial equity in their workplaces and communities. Last year, we began tracking these commitments – as well as the concrete actions corporate America was beginning to take – as part of our 2021 Corporate Racial Equity Tracker. Below, we’ve updated our Tracker with the latest corporate performance data on these issues, tracking whether companies are making progress toward their goals, two years on.”

“With our recent survey research showing that 92% of Americans overall (up from 79% last year) and 95% of Black Americans believe it is important for companies to promote racial diversity and equity in the workplace, the demand for action on corporate commitments has only increased – especially considering that 68% of Americans, and 87% of Black Americans, agree companies have more work to do.”

“The 2022 Corporate Racial Equity Tracker offers an in-depth accounting of the commitments and actions announced by the 100 largest U.S. employers, through 23 metrics across six specific dimensions of racial equity:”

• Anti-Discrimination Policies
• Pay Equity
• Racial/Ethnic Diversity Data
• Education and Training Programs
• Response to Mass Incarceration
• Community Investments

WHERE THE SBC “SEX ABUSE” AND RAMPANT RACISM ACCUSATIONS CAME FROM AND WHERE THEY ARE GOING IN THE CHURCH.

The SBC had the #MeToo movement pushing into its ranks by the Houston Chronicle and activist inside the SBC like Russell Moore, Beth Moore, and then incoming SBC President J D Greear in 2018. This trio formed a “Caring Well” event – hired professional victims /advocates like Rachael Denhollander -sold their books and began positioning the SBC with mechanisms for national overreach into local churches . This positioning has been spread out over 5 years and gone mostly undetected for what it means to local churches and individual believers.

By 2021 ,after being fired from his position as President of the SBC political lobby arm -the Ethics and Religious Liberties Commission for his divisive politics and constant shaming of Baptist voting habits, Russell Moore fired the DE&I torpedo via “leaked ” letters.

IN JUNE 2021 RUSSELL MOORE LAUNCHES ACCUSATION NARRATIVE TO MEDIA WHICH CAN ONLY BE ANSWERED BY DE&I CULTURE SHIFT AND MANDATED COMPLIANCE.

“ “The presenting issue here is that, first and foremost, of sexual abuse,” Moore wrote. “This Executive Committee, through their bylaws workgroup, ‘exonerated’ churches, in a spur-of-the-moment meeting, from serious charges of sexual abuse cover-up.”

HEADLINE FORM THE ATLANTIC JUNE 7 2021

“This is an earthquake,” a prominent Christian writer told me.”

“The publication of an extraordinary February 24, 2020, letter by Russell Moore, one of the most influential and respected evangelicals in America (and a friend), has shaken the Christian world.”

HOW IT PLAYED OUT AND HOW THE INVESTIGATION WILL END?

The SBC has set up TWO task force – one to lead the investigation and a second to direct”implementation ” of the investigations “report” and “recommendations” set out by the currently scandalized Guidepost Solutions and the first task force. Confused? The case might be made that the confusion is on purpose so as to provide distraction and cover from the looming DE&I compliance which saturates the work and culture of Guidepost and it legal partners. Compliance will come for the SBC like the emerging sun after a horrific storm and possibly be viewed as the answer to the years long trial and crisis.

SBC leaders, again making the appearance of leadership by the will of the messengers (SBC voting membership at the annual meetings ) in 2019 “Repurposed ” a “Standing Credentials Committee” which historically was tasked with verifying messenger credentials for voting ballots to represent their churches at the annual meetings, The Credentials Committee was morphed into a Reforms and Compliance enforcer agency now working with the Implementation Task Force and the Guidepost Report to review past issues of abuse and oversee handling of future reports and investigations. Meanwhile this “Credentials Committee ” has new found ability in the power to usurp the SBCs historic authority of the local church over ordination , cooperation , and participation in the Cooperative Programs of the SBC. In other words -SBC churches are no longer autonomous churches in “cooperation”. The nature of the SBC has been and will forever be changed by the internal handling of the Crisis brought about by activist leadership and furthered along by outside progressive /DE&I driven partners toward total compliance and utter culture change.

The fact it is important to understand is that the SBC and its entities have a significant and growing history of involvement in /with Government and other outside grant funding for “Refugee Care” education, health care, community development ,disaster relief and much more in Faith Based Partnerships with activist foundations and government agencies. The fact that Refugee Resettlement and Disaster Relief /FEMA partner /SBC NAMB entity Send Relief has stepped up and in to both fund the Implementation of reforms and give oversight of ministry “protecting families and children” is significant . And although the child sex abuse has seldom been the focus of the highly politicized Investigation and has ZERO focus in the applied culture change of DE&I- we are to accept that the SBC and these internal partners wish to “protect children.” . In fact the most vulnerable of victims seem to be left out of the outcomes. DE&I brings NOTHING at all for these young victims.

CONCLUSION

The Southern Baptist is the largest Protestant denomination or movement in America and its fall to DE&I compliance overhaul signals an end to much of mainstream biblically conservative Christianity in America. It signals an end to the political force and influence conservative Christians have enjoyed for the last two generations and that is actually a huge part of the intended outcomes by the progressive players who worked so hard to bring the “Crisis ” to the boiling point in 2018.

DE&I will subdue and subvert the stated vision of the SBC i.e. The Great Commission of spreading the Good News of Jesus to the World and will leave in its wake a WOKE scorched earth landscape void of the Gospel , flush with ongoing lawsuits, and policies which appease political goals -serve progressive political ends and leave victims out in the cold and on their own if they do not happen to fall among those cases carefully selected to be featured as window dressing for this host of agenda driven players who took up the crisis for their own assorted and sorted reasons.

What the SBC will no longer have is the guidance or presence of the Holy Spirit or the fruit of the Spirit or the fruitfulness which comes only from being on MISSION with the Gospel. It will however be “compliant” / Diverse/ Equitable / Inclusive with its empty churches and spiritually and financially bankrupt institutions.

AFTER OPERATING FROM 2006 TO 2018 MASKED AS A “CONSERVATIVE” REFORMED THEOLOGICAL MOVEMENT,RECENT YEARS HAVE EXPOSED THE PROGRESSIVE POLITICAL & GLOBALIST ORCHESTRATION OF TIM KELLER’S TGC AND GLOBAL PARTNERS LIKE WEA ,NAE & LAUSANNE.

NOW A DEEP LOOK AT ITS ORIGINS AND DEEPENING COMPROMISE.

Rev Thomas Littleton

12-11-2022

The World Evangelical Alliance and partners like National Association of Evangelicals and the Lausanne Movement have come out of the shadows and into the full light of day shamelessly owning open promotion of the World Economic Forum/ United Nations Global Sustainability Goals of Agenda 2030. After taking part in the G20 Religion Summitt R20 and the COP 27 gatherings WEA has launched Roadmap to 2030 and multiple partners like The Gospel Coalition are fully committed to priming the next generation of Christians to be “global citizens” and embrace Agenda 2030. WEA openly invites you and your church to join them and “collaborate” the fulfillment of these global goals possible and to offer your children on the altars of pagan earth worshippers in the name of serving Jesus.

THEIR JUDGEMENT LOOMS AND SLUMBERS NOT.

2 Peter 2:2-4

² And many will follow their destructive ways, because of whom the way of truth will be blasphemed. ³ By covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words; for a long time their judgment has not been idle, and their destruction does not slumber.

Doom of False Teachers

⁴ For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved for judgment”

THE NETWORK BOSSES AND AFFILIATES IN THE SEDUCTION OF THE CHURCH INTO GLOBALIST DECEPTION.

Much of the Evangelical church is now aware of both the influence and the error of Tim Keller and his massive echo chamber of speakers and writers called The Gospel Coalition. Keller himself is terminally ill but showing no signs of remorse or repentance for his position as co-founder of TGC and its role as a super spreader of the infections pathogens of politically progressive and global goals false gospel in the conservative church across America and the world.

WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT THE LIVING GOD

God charged Peter and all who are called of God to “feed my lambs”. John 21:15-17

God has warned that those who offend His little ones would be better off with a millstone tied around their necks and drowned in the depths of the sea in light of facing the full brunt of their ongoing deeds in accountability to Him. Matt 18:6

If the UN vision and globalist sustainability goals are not of God then the TGC and its leaders and the organizations above them are working tirelessly to deceive our children and indoctrinate them in global “citizenry ” to serve the fulfillment of the global goals of the United Nations, World Economic Forum, World Monetary Fund , and evangelical partnerships like WEA.

WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT TGC AND ITS PARENT ORGANIZATIONS

TGC is headquartered in Deerfield Illinois – World Evangelical Alliance has offices there as well. So are multiple other significant partners in the flood of false globalism teaching in Evangelicalism.

TIM KELLER RESOURCING WEA IN 2011

Tim Keller on evangelism in the 21st century

2011
“Tim Keller, founder and senior pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York City, talks about evangelism and contextualizing the gospel for the 21st century city.by Evangelical Alliance United Kingdom”

WEA ROLE IN DEFINING EVANGELICALS AND CASTING ITS VISION

“Evangelical” is a term invented to serve as a descriptor for evangelistically focused Christians and denominations and movements centered about (supposedly ) the global fulfillment of Jesus Great Commission. Since is founding in 1846.”

“WEA is the broadest organizational and global manifestation of what it means to be an evangelical.”…NOW THE ORGANIZATION WHICH SEEKS TO DEFINE US IS fully lockstep with United Nations Global Goals and the 2030 focus on AGENDA 2030.

WEA H Q -WORK WITH UNITED NATIONS & BRAZEN FOCUS ON 2030

WEA headquarters are in Deerfield, Illinois, with UN offices in New York City, Geneva, and Bonn. It brings together 9 regional and 143 national evangelical alliances of churches, and over one hundred member organizations. ” British meetings starting in 1843 led to the watershed London gathering in August 19-September 2, 1846 at Freemason Hall. Representatives came from England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Sweden, Germany, France, Holland, Switzerland, the US and Canada. Some 800-1000 Christian leaders, representing 53 “bodies of Christians”, met for 13 days in worship, preaching and business.”

WEA AND UN AGENDA 2030 -“ROADMAP TO 2030”

Click to access WEA_Roadmap2030-1.pdf

“The Roadmap 2030 is our strategic adaptive plan to guide the WEA worldwide community. We are united in love and devoted to following Jesus, fostering unity in the body of Christ for Gospel witness and discipleship. We invite the WEA family of networks to align our efforts, join in collaboration, and increase our effectiveness to accelerate the health and growth of the Church around the world.”

“To strengthen credible Christian voices
within the public sphere at the national,
regional and global levels on critical and
contemporary issues. This is done
primarily through research, advocacy and
empowering Evangelical Alliances to mobilize
churches and civil society in mitigating
violations of religious freedom and advocating for the marginalized or oppressed”

“We have a unique opportunity to affect the global narrative on
critical issues in both sacred and secular halls of power. With
WEA’s existing spheres of influence, such as our special
consultative status in the United Nations, we will be bolder and
more effective in speaking to global platforms of power.
As a global network, we can learn from each other, and together
we can influence laws and policies affecting religious freedom,
justice, vulnerabilities and other appropriate issues to further the
peace and well-being of all in a sustainable environment.”

“WEA intentionally facilitates working relationships with a
diverse coalition of networks, organizations and denominations. As global issues and arrangements shift, we will
remain alert and proactive, fostering partnerships and
nurturing new and creative movements based on shared
values and a common agenda centered on God’s kingdom.”

“Responsive and able organizational structures are critical
for WEA to be effective with its Regional and National
Alliances, global office and departments, partners and
affiliates. A strong and dynamic organizational “backbone”
is based upon a common agenda, helps measure shared
outcomes, facilitates mutually reinforcing activities, and
ensures connectivity among partners. Good organization
assists alliances, departments, and affiliates to be more
unified, and with appropriate lines of mutual accountability,
it sets in place rethinking, reflecting on and reassessing of
what is being done for God’s kingdom.”

WEA AND LAUSANNE CREATION CARE PARTNERSHIP SINCE 2013 EXPANDED IN 2019 NOW “ROADMAP 2030” IN DECEMBER 2022.

“With a global backdrop of serious ecological challenges, growing awareness of the biblical mandate to care for creation, and an increasing need to provide leadership in this arena at a global level, the WEA decided to create the WEA Creation Care Task Force (CCTF) in 2012.”

“After several years of fruitful collaboration, the WEA Creation Care Task Force and Lausanne Creation Care joined together to co-lead one unified creation care network called the Lausanne/WEA Creation Care Network (LWCCN).”

“In 2019 the WEA launched the WEA Sustainability Center (WEASC) in the strategic “UN City” of Bonn, Germany.  Led by Matthias K. Boehning, the overarching objective of the WEASC is to equip churches and congregations around the world to implement creation care on a daily basis, thereby becoming a strong, legitimate, and unified voice in global sustainability.  As the leadership of the CCTF and WEASC work collaboratively their combined, integrated, and strategic efforts are advancing the effectiveness of the evangelical community to care for God’s gift of creation.”

• Cardinal Miguel Ángel Ayuso Guixot, President of the Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue (Vatican)
• Thomas Schirrmacher, Secretary General of the Protestant World Evangelical Alliance

SAMPLE OF WEA -NEGOTIATING CLIMATE JUSTICE FUND

Where the current negotiation texts are failing:

•       At the start of COP27, we met and issued a call as a result of the COP27 Talanoa Dialogue. Since then, there has been little progress. So far, we have heard a lot of unilateral pledges from parties and positions. Those are encouraging but little is on paper. “

      “In addition, there is lack of progress on climate finance, including adaptation and loss and damage finance. Without this finance, the Global South cannot adapt to the climate emergency, and the debt situation will get worse. Global South leaders are calling the alarm, particularly small island states that are losing their territories, biodiversity, culture and identity. Increasingly climate disasters are costing lives and destroying homes in the Global North which are experiencing severe floods in countries like Germany and Belgium and massive widespread fires in Portugal and the US.”

      “The developing countries negotiating are united in their desire to deliver a loss and damage fund at this COP, the richer countries who have already had the privilege to develop need to show solidarity and political leadership .”

WEA ADDITIONAL HISTORY

“Founded in 1846, the World Evangelical Alliance has created and nurtured an unprecedented worldwide network of nine Regional and 135 National Alliances, as well as associated partners and organizations. Today, WEA is recognized as a major representative of more than 600 million Evangelical Christians … and growing. Our unique role is to be a voice and platform that unite this global evangelical movement.”

TEENS FROM WEA “EXPOSED” EVENT FOCUSED ON SUSTAINABILITY GOALS.

LAUSANNE MOVEMENT A TIM KELLER EVANGELICAL KING MAKER

TIM KELLER WAS CROWNED BY THE LAUSANNE MOVEMENT IN 2010

Keller preached on his “Cities” initiative in 2010 which is a key part of the “URBAN FOCUS” of Agenda 21 which since 2015 UN meetings is know as Agenda 2030. Lausanne has multiple ministrie which fully and openly embrace Agenda 2030.

“Tim Keller discusses the importance of cities and megacities. He outlines why we must, how we should, and why we can reach them.

View the other plenary sessions on the theme of Megacities and Diaspora from Cape Town 2010.”

KELLER AND “CITIES” THE PERFECT HAND IN GLOVE FIT FOR AGENDA 2030

KELLERS CITY FOCUS INCLUDES “PLANTING CHURCHES IN GLOBAL CITIES ”

Keller speaking at Lausanne 2010

KELLERS CITY TO CITY MOVEMENT RELIES ON URBAN THEORIST RICHARD FLORIDA’S IDEOLOGIES .

Richard Florida is best known for the book “The Creative Class” and his “Gay Indexes ” promoting rainbow inclusion in Urban planning and funding …and work with the UCLA leadership

FLORIDA DEVELOPED THE TERM “THE GREAT RESET”

Keller seems to believe that Richard Florida’s discredited theories promoting LGBTQ drivers in Urban and Community Development are key to gospel movements like his own and also was involved in 2009 efforts incorporating Florida’s “Gay Indexes” and “Creative (gay) Class” structures into Reformed Theological Seminary Orlando and CRU/ Campus Crusade involvement with the “Seeking the Welfare of the City” vision and RTS “Polis Institute”. This massive effort to recast the vision of ministry in cities to align it with Faith Based Partnerships and Community Development was and is lockstep with Richard Florida’s “The Great Reset” and “justice driven ” economics of the World Economic Forum. Several key evangelical leaders and Keller associates like Francis Collins and Rick Warren work directly with WEF. Keller’s Urban focus IS Agenda 2030 – Great REset aligned and has been at least since the Lausanne 2010 vision casting and the 2009 start of the Polis Institute. Polis was a “project of Frankfurt School Cultural Marxist Institutes for Advanced Studies in Culture at UVA and funded by the “Kern Family Foundation which has provided the grants behind the corruption of conservative evangelical seminaries. Note- Polis Institute as of 2022 now fully embraces the UN Sustainability Goals /Agenda 2030

Tim Keller/CRU/ RTS Orlando “City Reaching ” model est 2009 -Polis Institute.

TIM KELLER AND THE “JUSTICE ” MISSION OF REDEEMER CITY TO CITY

“From Richard Florida, author of the bestselling books The Rise of the Creative Class and Who’s Your City?, comes a book that frames the economic meltdown of 2008–09 not as a crisis but as an opportunity to “reset.” In doing so, he paints a fascinating picture of what our economy, society, and geography will look like—of how we will work and live—in the future.”

A Richard Florida disciple has a historic involvement in leader the UCLA “Williams Institute ” LGBTQ efforts which plays a key role in tracking and promoting LGBTQ census metrics and has recently begun to focus specific efforts on the “Transgender Populations” across the US.

https://williamsinstitute.law.ucla.edu/subpopulations/transgender-people/

Note- Florida’s books and theories have driven Lausanne leaders like Keller, David Platt and Ed Stetzer for decades and the theories behind them -especially Florida’s 2010 book “The Great Reset” was in play at Keller became one of the key Lausanne spokespersons in 2010 in South AFrica .

RICHARD FLORIDA AND “THE GREAT RESET”

“We’ve weathered tough times before. History teaches us that periods of “creative destruction,” like the Great Depression of the 1930s, also present opportunities to remake our economy and society and to generate whole new eras of economic growth and prosperity. In The Great Reset, bestselling author and economic development expert Richard Florida provides an engaging and sweeping examination of these previous economic epochs, or “resets,” while looking toward the future to identify the patterns that will drive the next Great Reset and transform virtually every aspect of our lives. He distills the deep forces that alter physical and social landscapes—how and where we live, how we work, how we invest in individuals and infrastructure, how we shape our cities and regions—and shows the ways in which these forces, when combined, will spur a fresh era of growth and prosperity, define a new geography of progress, and create surprising opportunities for all of us.”

“Evangelical leaders explain why skeptical evangelicals should get vaccinated.”

A Christian Perspective on the COVID Vaccines

“COVID vaccines have not only brought a sense of hope, but also many questions. Is it truly safe after such a quick timetable for development? Will it actually be effective and for how long? Are there ethical issues involved in the creation of the vaccines that Christians should know about?”

“In his role as director of the National Institutes of Health, Dr. Francis Collins oversees the largest supporter of biomedical research in the world. He is also a committed Christian. In Today’s Conversation podcast, you’ll hear Dr. Collins and NAE President Walter Kim discuss:”

• The integration of faith, science and health;
• How vaccines actually affect the body;
• The manufacturing process and ethics behind vaccinations; and
• What role pastors and Christians should play during the pandemic.

WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT THE MONEY

Three major players in the funding are The Templeton Foundation which promotes “The merger of Science and Faith , Interfaith Dialog and “Faith efforts which hold to no sacred text” . The second is the Seminary grant maker whose WOKE justice and Faith and Works focus is spread throughout the TGC and Evangelical realm named the Kern Family Foundation. The third founding source which has seen its financial impact swell from one billion dollars into Christian ministries over 24 years to over a billion and half PER YEAR since @ 2009 is The National Christian Foundation. NCF does not release its donor names or a list of recipients upon request if you are not part of its “Donor Advised Funds” Tim Keller Friend and long time multiple Keller organization board member Bob Doll is/has been on the Board of both Lausanne and CNF.

Templeton followed Kern Family Foundation OFFSHORE TO THE CAYMAN islands by 2014 which serves zero tax advantages (because they are not needed for charitable organizations who are tax exempt.) but does provide a convenient hinderance to following the paper trail of funding coming and going on both donor and recipient end.

WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT THEIR FALSE TEACHINGS

TGC AND ITS PARTNERS PUSH THE WOKE RACIAL PROPAGANDA IN 2018 WITH THE BOOK AND HASHTAG “#WOKECHURCH “

TGC ALSO COSPONSORED THE 2018 MLK/50 EVENT WITH sOUTHERN BAPTIST ORGANIZATION THE ERLC. MLK/50 CAUSED SIGNIFICANT PUSHBACK TO ITS FALSE JUSTICE GOSPEL .

TGC-

Woke Is . . .

THABITI ANYABWILE  |  APRIL 16, 2018

TGC is still [ushing WOKE CHURCH in May 2022

TGC- MAY 2022 Is ‘Woke Church’ a Stepping Stone to Theological Compromise?

TGC PROMOTES THE LGBTQ/SOGI/ SSA CELIBATE MESSAGES OF REVOICE ,SAM ALLBERRY AND MANY MORE.

In 2013 TGC commissioned future Revoice leader Nate Collins to review and promote SSA/ Celibate gay priest Sam Allberry’s book “Is God Anti Gay” while Collins was helping with the final “Exodus International Conference that same year as so called “ex gay” ministries were collapsed . Allberry promoted Revoice LGBT+ Thriving in Historic (conservative ) Churches” in Spring of 2018 and had by that time become TGC editor on all things LGBTQ and Christian. Soon afterward TGC and Revoice began to target churches and youth as Allberry’s Living Out group already was focusing upon.

Guest: Thomas Littleton. Topic: Beyond Revoice: LGBT Agenda Recruiting Youth Pastors & Targeting Your Teens?

“Nate Collins and Gregory Coles are working with Alan Chambers who is well known for having dismantled Exodus International from within after becoming its last president . Devoted looks to bypass adult staff and parents and reach out to the youth pastor to help him/her provide effective “pastoral care” for LGBT+ student in their/your church youth group. Collins who ,again, honed his expertise at Dr. Albert Mohlers Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and Gregory Coles who has received hearty endorsements of TGC and many in the PCA/ SBC camp (including the “Council for Biblical Manhood and Womanhood ” currently headed by Denny Burk) have just what a confused teen needs in your church youth group. A person who spent 14 years at Dr. Mohlers SBTS and still identifies as “homosexual in a mixed orientation marriage ” and Coles who identifies as a”single Gay Celibate Christian ” may be able make some of the cultures most desperately wrong narratives seem normal to the young believers hearts and minds.”

KELLER AND TGC ARE CLOSELY LINKED TO BOTH BIOLOGOS AND ITS FOUNDER FRANCIS COLLINS .

BioLogos and Collins included Keller in their early braintrust to promote “Theistic Evolution” and the merger of “Faith and Science”. Keller is also linked to BioLogos primary funder the Templeton Foundation. Besides the Theistic Evolution error -BioLogos is also heavily involved in promoting Interfaith Dialog especially Christian /Islamic Dialog.

TGC PROMOTES FEMINIST AND THEIR BOOKS

NOTE as always TGC brings both sides to the “conversations” they initiate and create a platform for dialectical consensus reaching . THIS is the TGC playbook.-Examples

TGC Themelios publication promoting Aimee Byrds book “Recovering from Biblical Manhood and Womanhood: How the Church Needs to Rediscover Her Purpose WRITTEN BY AIMEE BYRD

TGC promotes Feminist book accusing evangelical men of having indulged in too much toxic masculinity ….like watching too many John Wayne movies. The TGC reviewer cannot say enough on this “well written book”- “Review: Jesus and John Wayne by Kristin Kobes Du Mez”

TGC 2016 “A Conversation Guide for Egalitarians and Complementarians”

“Gender is on the agenda in both the community at large, and also in the church. So much is this the case that nowadays we often even add a descriptor of our position on gender to the other labels that we use for identifying the Christian sub-tribes that we belong to. So, I am no longer just an evangelical Anglican, I am now a complementarian evangelical Anglican, as opposed to an egalitarian evangelical Anglican! The unhelpful thing about these labels is that they can appear to simplify positions that can actually be quite nuanced and complex.”

KELLER/TGC PROMOTING SOCIAL JUSTICE

“Tim Keller on Why Caring About Justice Doesn’t Make You a Marxist.”

Timothy Keller Aug 20, 2020

“Talking about oppression, justice, etc doesn’t make one a Marxist. It makes one a student of the Bible.”

Keller denies the brand of social justice he preaches is Marxist YET much of his famous social justice talking points like “Human Flourishing ” come from a self confirmed Frankfurt School ( ground zero for 1920s development of Cultural Marxism) IASC think tank. TGC ,Lausanne , Keller and IASC all worked very closely in 2015 “Civilitas ” movement which claimed that “lack of civility was the greatest threat to society worldwide”.

Keller has also confirmed again and again the he was directly influenced by Frankfurt School himself, So denying his form of social justice focus in NOT Marxist -simply does not square with his associations or history.

See Dr Williams New Calvinist articles on Keller for his documented Frankfurt School history.

Keller’s Marxist sympathies

Excerpt:

“Keller’s Marxist sympathies”

In Keller

“The Reason for God (2008), where he writes about his emotional attachment to the ideas of the Frankfurt School of Neo-Marxism. He confesses that in college he was ‘heavily influenced by the neo-Marxist critical theory of the Frankfurt School’, and admits that he ‘was emotionally’ drawn to the social activism of the neo-Marxists.[3] Keller closes The Reason for God hoping his readers will become ‘true revolutionaries’ and will ‘go from here’ into churches that are devoted to actions of social justice. “

“He seeks to spawn the realization of the ‘desperate need’ he felt as a college student ‘to find a group of Christians who had a concern for justice in the world but who grounded it in the nature of God rather than in their own subjective feelings’.

TGC STEADY EFFORTS TO PROMOTE THE CLIMATE JUSTICE NARRATIVE

TGC-“Comfort for Climate Change Anxiety”Oct 2019

“God Wants the Blame for Climate Change”SEPTEMBER 22, 2021

“How Should Christians Engage the Current Conversation on Climate Change?  OCTOBER 2, 2019

WHAT WE KNOW THEY HAVE DONE TO OUR SEMINARIES

TGC ,The Center for Transformational Churches and the Oikonomia Network headquarters are ALL located at TEDS or Trinity University and Divinity School.Kern Family Foundation which funds the justice driven grants for “Faith and Work Economics” into conservative seminaries and Christian Universities formed Oikonomia Network or “Kern Pastors Network” to oversee it’s grants. WOKE has “Flourished ” (their most preferred buzz word) in Seminaries because of these influences and money . TGC/Keller and these global partners are at the heart of this effort.

WEA NEW COMMITMENT TO “NEXT STEPS IN THEOLOGICAL (CHRISTIAN) EDUCATION

NOVEMBER 29 2022

“The 18th global consultation C-22 of the International Council for Evangelical Theological Education (ICETE) concluded in Izmir, Turkey after a week-long program focused on exploring practical next steps to collaborate among all forms of theological education worldwide for the sake of the Church, particularly in the area of pastoral training and leadership development.”… ICETE, which originally grew out of the World Evangelical Alliance (WEA) more than forty years ago, has developed into a global hub for evangelical theological education and today is member of the WEA’s Global Theology Department.”….Participants embraced the vision to begin to write a future story for theological education: a story marked by collaborative moves from talking to doing across all sectors, with the ultimate aim to strengthen the Church.” 

WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT THE PRESENT TARGETING OF CHILDREN IN OUR CHURCHES AND EVEN OUR HOMES.

TGC affiliates CURRICULUM is targeting our children in our own churches. Ed Stetzer’s The Gospel Project has a brain trust from the TGC WOKE /social justice stables and is designed for preK -adult classes.

TGC influence and speakers are moving heavily into gaining influence in organizations like ACSI- the Association of Christian Schools International which in 2021 began UnifyEd in partnership with a racial justice TGC advocate from a Kern FF funded center “Intersect Project ” at SEBTS Seminary. Walter Strickland ,head of UnifyEd admitted to NY Time that he teached James Cone and Black Liberation Theology and was part of the Baptist embrace of Critical Race Theory as a “useful analytical tool with the Gospel”.

ACSI also has TGC influence it is LGBTQ focus with promoting Allberry and Revoice leaders in conferences and schools in Europe . One Central European school has been totally invaded by TGC with a TGC church planted on its campus adn pulling in much of the faculty and families from the school into the church. It is estimated that over 30 missions organizations missionaries and their families attend this one school with zero other options for Christian education.

AWANA Clubs International has taken up the TGC stable of speakers on racial justice, segway egalitarian narratives and the LGBTQ Inclusion /Hospitality / SSA but Celibate narrative in 2 “Child Discipleship Forum” training meetings for AWANA leaders. AWANAs new leadership as of January 2022 is a Board member of the NAE.

AWANA now has a parents conversation guide for home use called “Talk About” .It remains to be seen if TGC WOKE Justice speaker lineup in the Awana CDF events of 2021 and 2022 as well as the speakers announced for the 2023 will be part of the “Talk About” conversations and “discipleship equipping” for parents at home. Time will certainly tell.

Of “Talk About”- AWANA CEO and NAE Board member Matt Markins told Baptist Press in April 2022 -”

“Matt Markins, President and CEO of Awana, echoed the sentiment that the backbone of family discipleship is relational communication.”

“We’re being commanded from the Scriptures to talk to our kids, and it’s clear that parents who are disciple-making parents talk to their children,” Markins said.

“If a basic foundation to an intimate relationship with their children is dialogue, then talk related to Christianity should not be a second language, but a heart language for families.”

“Markins said he hopes this resource can assist local churches, including many Southern Baptist Churches that use Awana programming, with “becoming an equipping community that trains parents in discipleship.”

“We’re giving parents what they need step by step so they have a long-term process and plan to cultivate disciples into young adulthood.”

“He even hopes “Talk About,” will be a resource that has influence not only for biological families, but entire church families as well.”

“I believe that in the experience of discipling children, both for parents and for church volunteers, those people are being discipled as well,” Markins said.”

ARE THERE ANY SAFE CHILDREN’S MINISTRIES LEFT WHO HAVE ESCAPED THE TGC REACH?

CONCLUSION

For organizations like ACSI and AWANA other Children’s ministries affiliated with or open to the NAE- WEA- Lausanne- TGC influence much MORE of the agenda is coming into their realms. These streams will include full on embrace of the United Nations 17 Sustainable Development Goals like WEA and POLIS Institute and Lausanne Movement are doing. Alignment with the Great Reset is forthcoming and its financial goals including Digital Currency. Cooperation and participation in The Pandemic Industrial Complex and its weaponization of viruses and responses to them will occur. And of course Interfaith/Multi-Faith and Muslim -Christian dialog and “Chrislam ” are locked and loaded for launch into TGC/ NAE WEA affiliated organizations as is “Theistic Evolution” merging Science and Faith for unity sake and “the emergence of a just and harmonious world order”. i.e. the New World Order of the anti- christ. Poor eschatology has only accelerated these deceptions and will fuel many organizations , churches and institutions demise and judgement.

BY 2013 A LITERAL SWARM OF ACTIVIST CLAIMING SOME LEVEL OF LGBTQ “CHRISTIAN” IDENTITY WERE DUMPED INTO THE CONSERVATIVE CHRISTIAN ARENA TO CONDUCT AND LEAD “CONVERSATIONS” ON SAME SEX ATTRACTION AND CHRISTIAN IDENTITY. THE EMERGING “END GAME” OF INCLUSION DRAWN FROM VICTIM ASSERTIONS CONTEXTUALIZED FOR CHRISTIAN FAITH VIA INTERSECTIONALITY HAVE HAD OVER A DECADE TO CONFUSE, DECONSTRUCT AND GENERALLY WEAKEN A BIBLICAL UNDERSTANDING OF TRANSFORMATION AND PERSONAL HOLINESS.

Rev Thomas Littleton

12/9/2022

Same Sex Attracted but Celibate script was launched into the conservative church orbit in order to circle the globe and bring about social change toward LGBTQ among Christians. It plays up victimhood, claims minority status, calls the nuclear family an “idol” ( This is taken straight from feminist theology of the early 90s) and degrades hetersosexuality. It has filled our seminaries and flooded our pulpits and discipleship curriculum. The Same Sex Attracted but Celibate Christian narrative allows for various levels of false claims to a “Gay Christian” identity and also in some cases boldly asserts LGBTQ and even “Queer Christian ” identity. What has been happening in Christian circles among speakers, publishers, books, articles, leaders and contrived conversations on human sexuality and gender has been an elaborate form of message shopping and classic activism for social change. It is based on dialog or classic dialectic consensus reaching. The narrative combines Critical Theories of many varieties and mass manipulation tactics from the social sciences well versed in human behavior and wrapped in theological and compassion language.

SOME OF THE PLAYERS IN THE SSA/SOGI MOVEMENT

One gay /SSA Celibate identified priest from the Church of England , Sam Allberry, is presently on a world tour and even being embraced and promoted to children by the Association of Christian Schools International in classrooms in Europe . Local churches globally are being primed through leadership training to incorporate Allberry and other SSA advocates and even racial driven critical theory CRT talking points into the Children’s ministries through the Awana Clubs International programs. There seems to be no place protected from or too sacred for the invasion of these activist charged narratives. More documentation on this reality in a moment.

(Allberrry’s Living Out website became the center of controversy for its content after more than six years . This happened when pastors who had promoted Allberrys books for years FINALLY bothered to read it. Much of the content was then removed and Allberry made public admissions and excuses for it. Meanwhile Allberry became The Gospel Coalition (TGC) editor on all things LGBTQ/SSA and was a key speaker and thought leader for the now infamous Ravi Zacharias ministries even as Ravi was being exposed for his sexual perversions and exploitation of relationships and his trusted reputation in ministry.)

BUTTERFIELD THE FEMININE GENDER AND QUEER THEOORY SPECIALIST

Another popular speaker in the SSA narrative is reformed “pastors wife and homeschool mom” Rosaria Butterfield who has an academic specialty in critical theory ,gender, queer and feminine theory as informed by Marx, Darwin and Freud. Her talking points are skillfully wrapped in Calvinist theological rhetoric and very popular among reformed pastors. Until recently Rosaria called the concept of and Christian counseling related to “ex gay” therapy or helping to restore people toward normal heterosexual desires as a “form of the prosperity gospel”. Her recent and very limited shift on this issue involves expanding her “understanding” through the work of a New Apostolic Reformation counselor and Bethel Church elder. Rosaria’s new view has more application to “transgendered who wish to transition back” than to “people wanting to escape homosexuality” which she insist has become “irrelevant”.

The problem is sweeping and has long term and devastating implications for Christian Ministry. “Ex Gay ” counseling of any kind is being vilified and outlawed at a rapid pace globally and is at the threshold of silencing any and all opposition through legal efforts by Human Rigths Campaign in America. To counsel against or even call for repentance from LGBTQ identity and lifestyle will soon be labelled “Hate Speech ” and become unlawful. Aided by the SSA but Celibate and “Gay Christian” talking points -this message will cut straight to the heart of how the church and the local pastor and even the individual believer will be able to respond to LGBTQ movements crushing blows on free speech, human rights and religious rights.

HISTORY ON THE SSA /CELIBATE/ GAY CHRISTIAN NARRATIVE

Where did SSA/ Same Sex Attracted but Celibate Christian language come from?

First ask– “Is this not an obviously co-ordinated and contrived global effort?’ Clearly it is.

Secondly ask- “How did faithful Gospel and Biblically sound movements decide to abandon the understanding that Gospel transformation can does and must sanctify the heart and desires of saved individuals no matter what their backgrounds or sexual past?” So – “HOW did homosexuality /LGBTQ become beyond the reach of the Gospel at the same time the current version of the sweeping LGBTQ rights global movement took shape in 2010? Why have Christian leaders decided to set aside the TRUTH of the Gospel and bow the knee to the assertions of SOGI and SSA?”

Thirdly – Consider that the church had no reason to promote “conversations” on any new perspectives rooted in SSA/SOGI assertions . Nothing beyond the Word of God is needed or will ever be needed to authoritatively address this, ANY other sins and ALL sexual sins and behavior. Simply put the church never needed these conversations. Having them only provided a platform for activist change agents for social change inside the church.

NOTE: The first time this author ever heard the phrase “Same Sex Attracted ” applied to Christian faith was in 2011 when a popular PCA pastor from Atlanta Randy Pope used SSA in a sermon where he was pitching his curriculum, Community Development “Connector”, Faith Based Partnership models to/in this authors church. Pope insisted that in order to connect and achieve any kind of relevance for witness and winning “SSA people to faith” that we must become welcoming and inclusive Christians and churches.

SSA but Celibate leaves homosexual /LGBTQ desires intact and repositions them from being understood as “Temptation ” into being part of the persons unchanging “Orientation” and Christian identity. The true biblical understanding of temptation and inordinate desire is to crucify and mortify it…put it to death. Todays SSA “victim ” must wear the label and give up any real hope for change. Many like Allberry and those named here have been able to specialize in spreading the SSA/SOGI narrative and turn SSA but Celibate into entire careers spent promoting it including books and endless conferences and speaking engagements.

To this author first hearing the SSA but Celibate language-it was disturbingly akin to an AA (Alcoholics Anonymous ) for Gays. Once an alcoholic always an alcoholic and translated into a “born this way” / “Sexual Orientation “narrative which allows for “Gay Christianity” and a host of accommodation terms. Unquestioned acceptance of these quickly cost the church the ability to proclaim the true Gospel and lay out historic repentance demands thus leaving people who truly want deliverance to remain hopelessly captive to some form of gay or LGBTQ identity…. even in their faith. Also it has left their families searching for voices of hope somewhere other than from the church.

TODAY EVEN LONG TRUSTED CHILDRENS MINISTRIES LIKE AWANA AND CHRISTIAN SCHOOL OVERSITE LEADERS LIKE ACSI ARE PROMOTING THESE SSA ACTIVIST.

PHOTO & COMMENT TAKEN FROM AWANA CHILD DISCIPLESHIP FORUM 2022 EVENT.

awana

“Sam Allberry has a heart to shepherd the children of God. He is a well known author and speaker and has a passion to pass on biblical identity to children who are living in a confusing world. He’ll be joining us at the Child Discipleship Forum this September in Franklin, Tennessee, and through Sam’s research, we will hear insight on how we can disciple our children to pursue God’s calling.”

ACSI PROMOTING ALLBERRY AND SSA ACTIVIST IN THEIR RESOURCES.

ACSI /ASSOCIATION OF CHRISTIAN SCHOOLS INTERNATIONAL -RESOURCES TEACHERS WITH REVOICE LGBTQ+ INCLUSION TRAINING

15 REASONS WHY SSA CHRISTIANITY IS FALSE AND DANGEROUS

1. SSA narrative is based in the secular ,often Atheist psychological community like the American Psychological Association (APA) false and conflicted conclusion that a person is born with a “sexual orientation”. This concludes that heterosexuality is not the standard of normal. (Research APA history on how gay leadership brought about changes in the APA position) The APA has made this leap to support ongoing efforts since 1973 to normalize a variety of sexual desires and actions as well as promote the deconstruction of biological gender resulting in the medical, legal and activist concepts of SOGI Sexual Orientation Gender Identity . SOGI has now become the “gold standard” in interpreting human rights in the global debates about how they should be protected and an overwhelming call for commitments to protect dignity and “human flourishing ” for all. SOGI and SSA are NOT biblically based narratives or terms. Samples of SOGI standards globally . The White House https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/presidential-actions/2021/01/20/executive-order-preventing-and-combating-discrimination-on-basis-of-gender-identity-or-sexual-orientation/ The APA https://arc-international.net/research-and-publications/un-and-regional-sogi-reports/ https://www.apa.org/about/policy/resolution-sexual-orientation-parents-children.pdf American Bar Association https://www.americanbar.org/groups/diversity/sexual_orientation/ Anti- Hate Crime /Human Rights Protections https://www.coe.int/en/web/no-hate-campaign/sexual-orientation-and-gender-indentity-sogi

2. SOGI is self contradictory . The assertion is that “Sexual Orientation is inborn and unchanging while also asserting that Gender Identity is fluid- non binary and NOT linked to biological birth gender. The assumption here is that the “science”can have it both ways in the narrative with no actual science to support it or resolve the glaring contradiction which SOGI represents. SOGI is homosexual LGB normative while deconstructing gender making it fluid.

3. Planned Parenthood / SIECUS / the APA / The United Nations and international Malthusian ( overpopulation advocates ) globalists have been the main promoters and originators of the LGBTQ/SOGI concepts in human rights interpretation. By interpreting human rights and assigning them primarily to the fringes of human identity like transgenderism at the expense of the protection of others rights in the majority-these organizations have been able to strip most of the Western civilizations of historic and constitutionally guaranteed rights while pushing the definition of Human Rights to the edge -for the “marginalized only” and under the control of those who own the narrative.

“Protecting the marginalized ” means marginalizing the normal majority. It really is a brilliant progressive strategy to strip everyone of basic human rights including LGBTQ identified people. And it is being done in the name of “preserving human dignity” for all.

The entire discussion of human rights now not only rest with global malthusian interest like Planned Parenthood and the United Nations but are totally politicized and driven by the fluid world of non binary “identities”.

4. The SSA narrative entered biblically conservative church movements in large part by the Lausanne Movement in 2010 and by The Gospel Coalition (TGC)and Southern Baptist Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC) . These organizations were working in tandem with progressive political and critical theory informed narratives aimed at forcing social change in the attitudes of Christians toward emerging LGBTQ social upheaval. The church-it has been decided -must have its views altered and shifted to prevent “discrimination ” All churches must become more welcoming – inclusive – hospitable and diverse equitable and inclusive. The shift is part of the larger move into a social justice / Diversity Equity & Inclusion (DEI) based “social gospel” which weakened and destroyed the mainline denominations in the 1970s. Same false gospel with slightly retuned narratives. SSA / SOGI seeks to unhinge the Christian views from the Bibles clear condemnation of homosexuality and present it in more culturally relevant and guilt driven context. It also ignores the historically disruptive role in cultural decline of ancient civilizations and play upon modern politically exploitative narratives of Cultural Marxism. Make no mistake -the primary target of this movement is your faith and the next generations within the church and Christian homes.

Lausanne papers on SSA from 2010 – https://lausanne.org/content/sexuality-creation-brokenness-truth-and-grace-2

TGC commissioned White paper from APA “Christian SOGI Expert” Mark Yarhouse which in 2010 became the gold standard on human sexuality for The Gospel Coalition Christ on Campus ministries and all other TGC outlets. https://henrycenter.tiu.edu/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Yarhouse-Homosexuality.pdf

LAUSANNE AND ITS KEY LEADERS

Tim Keller is cofounder of TGC and is part of the once conservative PCA Presbyterian denomination. Keller was part of the 2010 Lausanne Movement meetings where the 5 SSA whitepapers were presented and adopted. TGC Also adopted its APA based whitepaper by APA’s Mark Yarhouse that same year. TGC and Keller’s rise in popularity have taken place despite his deep compromise on false social justice ,Frankfurt School influenced and “equity based” gospel.

Keller has openly problematic views on homosexuality. By 2011 Keller refused to openly and plainly state in black and white that homosexuality was a sin in a Columbia University “Veritas Forum” event. Keller reportedly had a homosexual brother who died from AIDS and this would explain his being personally conflicted. It does not however explain or justify his deadly errors in leadership and use of TGC to spread this compromise across conservative Christian movements. Keller’s PCA and its flagship Seminary Covenant Theological Seminary (CTS ) are deeply infected with SSA/ SOGI and spreading it like STDs across their movement and churches. Keller attended and presented ,along with his wife Kathy, the June 2018 Allberry/ Living Out event in London where Keller’s wife embraced the newly introduced Living Out LGBTQ Inclusion -Church Audit which she proclaimed to be “brilliant” and promised to take back to their NYC congregations.

CTS , along with Baptist SBTS had key players in the leadership of the Revoice LGBTQ Thriving in Histoirc (conservative ) Churches movement which was promoted in April 2018 by Allberry “for our US audience” to be held in July 2018. CTS and TGC infection of the PCA with Revoice has left the denomination hopelessly entangled in the “Side A vs Side B ” false SOGI based deflections. The PCA is investing years and its theological braintrust in splitting hairs over the meaning of the word Concupiscence.

(See the information below for Kellers 2011 overt compromise on LGBTQ sinfulness.)

One Nation Under Sex by Larry Flynt and David Eisenbach

” Wednesday, August 24, 2011

Free-speech advocate, Hustler magazine magnate, and campaigner against political hypocrisy, Larry Flynt teams up with Columbia University professor David Eisenbach, Ph.D. in One Nation Under Sex, to shed light on how the private lives of America’s political leaders have shaped American history.)

5. SSA insist that homosexuals have been mistreated and excluded from the church. SSA says that their desires are not in themselves sinful but only if they are acted upon . Celibacy is then the answer or response to secure being “Biblically faithful and orthodox” while allowing a range of LGBTQ indentites to be included and protected from mistreatment. The church MUST make room for and realign with modern culture, global goals and the APA. Christians must embrace being Gay and Christian as a reality.

6. Culture Change Efforts of SSA but Celibate go like this “curse to cross to crown”. The talking points of SOGI and SSA change efforts move along the critical theory ideologies assertion that a long history of mistreatment of LGBTQ by Christians exist. This has caused the church to considered homosexuality to be a”Curse”. Today SSA but celibate is rapidly becoming a special status of sacrificial cross bearing disciples who are more deeply devoted to Christ than their heterosexual counterparts. Following this false progression the intent is for this sympathy to translate into one day LGBTQ Christians and SSA Celebates status will be “Celebrated as a CROWN” . ( Taken from TGC/ Christianity Today thought leader Ed Stetzers interview with a now openly gay Southern Baptist thought leader in 2014 called “The future of evangelicals. Stetzer is a key Lausanne leader.)

7. SSA Celibacy denies Gospel Transformation and ignores the many thousands of people who are living epistles of and have solid gospel testimonies of full conversion of life and desires and heteronormative lives and families. In fact such fully converted people are fully excluded in todays SSA/SOGI narrative and their very existence is openly denied.

8. SSA relies on “Celibacy” as a false state of “Biblical Faithfulness” in a narrative that is not based in scripture even remotely and is solely dependent on the individuals continued commitment to celibacy while asserting their same sex desires will never change. Many have moved into the “side A” fulling affirming of homosexuality and gay marriage after legalization of gay marriage globally.

9. SSA Celibate also implies that the Biblical basis for remaining unmarried is a safe haven for unchanged sexual desires instead of the true biblical version of dedication to service of the Lord without distraction in which repressed sexual desire actually has nothing to do with biblical faithfulness.

10. SSA Celibate and LGBTQ Christian organizers fail totally to engage fully converted “FORMER or EX ” homosexuals or LGBTQ among their gatherings and conversations. Organizations like TGC and ERLC have NO FORMER -NOW TOTALLY REDEEMED and TRANSFORMED Believers involved in their narratives. Such testimonies are excluded and protest about their exclusion are rejected.

11. TGC and ERLC and similar or related organizations have dominated the conversations, conferences, articles, books, curriculum with activist promoting SSA but Celibate / Mixed Orientation Marriage / LGBTQ “Christianity”. Their handpicked activist like Sam Allberry, Christopher Yuan, Jackie Hill Perry, Rosaria Butterfield, Nate Collins, Rebecca McLaughlin, Rachel Gilson and others to promote their message. All practice varying degrees of gender, feminine, queer theories and intersectionality and call for “hospitality, inclusion, welcome, practice of”messy grace” resulting in LGBTQ invitations into the church.

NOTE- THIS is presented as a Gospel approach to use the church to evangelize people .In fact this false and doomed approach fails to understand that evangelism is done by the sharing of the Gospel and repentance and faith allow for God to set the sinner free – infuse them with the Divine Nature and make the redeemed part of the Body of Christ aka The Church.

AGAIN-We are not called to use the Body of Christ or “inclusion” in it…which we cannot offer .. to unrepentant and unregenerate people as a means to evangelize and reach lost people.This welcome and inclusion is NOT how the Gospel works .

SSA / LGBTQ activist like these mentioned above are more interested in driving social change in the church toward themselves and others like them who seek to cling to some various form of LGBTQ identity , protect and sanctify their inordinate desires , and make the Gospel out to be driven by hospitality instead of preaching Christ and calling for repentance. Allberry and his ministry Living Out” ( meaning living OUT -as openly gay) even decided to develop and market an LGBTQ Inclusion Church Audit to put churches to their test of LGBTQ hospitality metrics.

12. Experienced Christian Counselors affirm that the SSA Celibate narrative is “a false narrative which places those wanting out of homosexuality and LGBTQ identity on a slippery slope which will inevitably collapse into the affirming of homosexuality and LGBTQ Christianity “

13. False narratives have led to false status and false positions like SSA where celibacy is the hingepoint of faithfulness and not holiness and devotion to transformation by the Gospel. The “Side A Fully affirming vs Side B SSA but Celibate -biblically faithful and within the confines of historic orthodoxy -arguments are circular and a non biblical segway process to garner support for fully affirming all sexual behaviour and redefining of marriage within the church.. Again the once conservative denomination the PCA has been LOST in a years long circular discussion over Side A vs Side B. Activist who launched these narratives are thriving on the aimless and endless discussion . Meanwhile they are also “Flourishing ” in the churches of the PCA and other movements taken in by these talking points,

14. SSA Celibate is simply an updated language to the old arguments of the 1970s over “non practicing homosexuals ” being accepted into church membership and ordained to positions of ministry.This segway language and movement led very quickly to full affirmation of and acceptance of practicing homosexuals and now to “Gay Christian Identity” , LGBTQ Christian, and DE&I metrics for these church as their standards and norms.

15. Those who want out of the spectrum of LGBTQ life and identity need HOPE=-real hope of freedom and transformation. The true Gospel offers that without any respect of persons and no exceptions regardless of the past and sins of the individual. The families of LGBTQ identified people need HOPE as well that their loved ones can be set free and restored and their painfully divided families restored. This movement has divided many families and left many many people hurting and looking for HOPE. This hope can only be found in Jesus and the power of His cross and His shed blood and resurrection . One of the BIGGEST problems with these SSA Celibate , SOGI and other narratives is they cannot and do not offer the hope of true freedom and transformation.

CONCLUSION

Biblical Truth vs a False Narrative :

Hebrews 7 :

²⁴ But He, because He continues forever, has an unchangeable priesthood. ²⁵ Therefore He is also able to save ^[h]to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them.

²⁶ For such a High Priest was fitting for us, who is holy, ^[i]harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and has become higher than the heavens; ²⁷ who does not need daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for His own sins and then for the people’s, for this He did once for all when He offered up Himself. 

1st Corinthians 6:

⁹ Or do you not know that the unrighteous^[b] will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality,^[c] 10 nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. ¹¹ And such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.

Matthew 8:

²⁸ And when He came to the other side into the country of the Gadarenes, two demon-possessed men confronted Him as they were coming out of the tombs. They were so extremely violent that no one could pass by that way. ²⁹ And they cried out, saying, “^[a]What business do You have with us, Son of God? Have You come here to torment us before ^[b]the time?” ³⁰ Now there was a herd of many pigs feeding at a distance from them. ³¹ And the demons begged Him, saying, “If You are going to cast us out, send us into the herd of pigs.” ³² And He said to them, “Go!” And they came out and went into the pigs; and behold, the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea and ^[c]drowned in the waters. ³³ And the herdsmen ran away, and went to the city and reported everything, ^[d]including what had happened to the demon-possessed men. 

Leviticus 18:

²² You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination.

Leviticus 20:

13 ⁿIf a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them.

Genesis 19:

²⁷ And Abraham went early in the morning to the place where he had stood before the Lord. ²⁸ Then he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain; and he saw, and behold, the smoke of the land which went up like the smoke of a furnace. ²⁹ And it came to pass, when God destroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when He overthrew the cities in which Lot had dwelt.

Romans 1:

¹⁸ For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who ^[d]suppress the truth in unrighteousness, ¹⁹ because what may be known of God is ^[e]manifest ^[f]in them, for God has shown it to them. ²⁰ For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and ^[g]Godhead, so that they are without excuse, ²¹ because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. ²² Professing to be wise, they became fools, ²³ and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like ^[h]corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.

²⁴ Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, ²⁵ who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

²⁶ For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their ^[i]women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. ²⁷ Likewise also the ^[j]men, leaving the natural use of the ^[k]woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.

²⁸ And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; ²⁹ being filled with all unrighteousness, ^[l]sexual immorality, wickedness, ^[m]covetousness, ^[n]maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, ³⁰ backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, ^31 [o]undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, ^[p]unforgiving, unmerciful; ³² who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.

1st Timothy 1:

⁵ Now the purpose of the commandment is love from a pure heart, from a good conscience, and from ^[b]sincere faith, ⁶ from which some, having strayed, have turned aside to idle talk, ⁷ desiring to be teachers of the law, understanding neither what they say nor the things which they affirm.

⁸ But we know that the law is good if one uses it lawfully, ⁹ knowing this: that the law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and for sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, ¹⁰ for fornicators, for sodomites, for kidnappers, for liars, for perjurers, and if there is any other thing that is ^[c]contrary to sound doctrine, ¹¹ according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God which was committed to my trust.

INTERFAITH PARTICIPATION BY PCA AND SBC LEADERS IS RAMPANT AMONG GLOBALIST RELIGIOUS LEADERS. THE MOST RECENT ROUND TOOK PLACE IN INDONESIA AT THE FIRST EVER “R20” INITIATED AT G20 BY THE WORLD MUSLIM LEAGUE.

Rev.Thomas Littleton

11/21/2022

Presbyterians and Baptist look to lining up in the rush into apostasy, global goals vision casting and now using interfaith dialog to openly boast their role in the effort to”foster the emergence of a truly just and harmonious world order.” The reasons for this insanity are rooted in several new realities. Christian missions organizations like the PCA Mission to North America and the Southern Baptist North American Missions Board/ International Missions Board collaborate with the governments and international NGOs to import refugees and support human migration ,especially of Muslims, into the United States. Also leaders like Tim Keller and Rick Warren are leading out in the push for more and ever deepening interfaith dialog and agreements like this G20 Religious Forum.

Welcome to the Indonesia Religion Forum
(R20 Indonesia 2022)

“The R20 forum will leverage the ‘Group of 20’ (G20) Summit, an annual gathering of the world’s most economically powerful nations, to help ensure that religion in the 21st century functions as a genuine and dynamic source of solutions, rather than problems.

In order to fulfill this vision, R20 forum will mobilize diverse religious, political and economic leaders from G20 Member States and elsewhere throughout the world to:

G20 INTERFAITH CALL TO ACTION AGENDA

“The G20 Interfaith Forum (“IF20”) is inspired by the extraordinary contemporary efforts of religious communities—leaders, witnesses, organizations, alliances, scholars—across the world—to work together,with each other and with countless other partners, to address the crises.”

Multireligious coalitions, alliances, and partnerships are doing so. We cite a few examples: ( NOTE- This includes the WHO/ Pandemic leadership, UN Climate /Global Warming agenda, Commission on Refugees and even Agenda 2030 Global Sustainability Goals. )

• Religions for Peace makes common cause with the World Health Organization (WHO), the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP), and the High Commission on Refugees (UNHCR).
• Jubilee USA presses for action on to mobilize and reform global financial architecture.
• The International Partnership on Religion and Sustainable Development (PaRD) addresses Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) one by one.
• Arigatou International exemplifies a laser focus on children.
• The International Freedom of Religion or Belief Alliance highlights victims of discrimination.
• The Culture of Encounter that Pope Francis exhorts is intricately linked to the 2019 document on Human Fraternity for World Peace and Living Together, signed with the Sheikh of Al-Azhar.1

My Speech in Washington”

by Andrew McCarthy
August 9, 2012

“…the Muslim World League in Saudi Arabia, (is) perhaps the most significant Muslim Brotherhood organization in the world.”

“As recently as 2018 many others have testified before Congress that the Muslim Brotherhood is “GLOBAL THREAT” DUE TO IT’S MASSIVE SUPPORT OF TERRORISM .”

• Joko Widodo, President of Indonesia
• Mohammad bin Abdulkarim Al-Issa, Secretary-General of Muslim World League
• Yahya Cholil Staquf, General Chairman of Nahdlatul Ulama
• Cardinal Miguel Ángel Ayuso Guixot, President of the Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue (Vatican)

THE POPE SPEAKS VIRTUALLY /CATHOLIC PRESS HIGH PRAISE

“The R20 summit, Sheikh Staquf told Indonesian agency Antara, expected to host “no less than 160 international figures” and some 4,000 participants.”

“Archbishop Warda thanked Staquf for allowing a place for discussion to flourish and quoted the Muslim sheikh’s words that any Islamic doctrine of enmity was “unreasonable” and a barrier to “living harmoniously and peacefully within the multicultural, multireligious societies of the 21st century.”

“In his livestreamed speech, the Catholic leader called for an “honest discussion about the primordial cycle of hatred, supremacy, and violence that has plagued humanity since before the dawn of history.”

“The archbishop echoed the words of Pope Francis in Iraq to Christians during his visit in 2021, stressing that love was real strength. He stressed the need to be able to forgive — without forgetting — and “a renewed encounter with our Muslim neighbors based in the reality of our experience.”

ARCHBISHOP THINKS G20 CAN SAVE THE WORLD?

“And while I am personally convinced that the world of faith will ultimately prevail,” Archbishop Warda added, “it cannot do so when the constant face of our world of faith is one of violence against the other, or even against ourselves.”

“He said: “We beg those who will be assembled in the forthcoming G20 summit, those who continue to have access in shaping policy for the world, to daily remember that your global planning decisions have life or death consequences for the people living on the outside.”

(NOTE :INFORMATION FROM PCA MISSIONS LEADER TOM JOHNSON’S NEWSLETTER)

Thank You!
G20 Religion Forum in Indonesia
A Note from Tom
 I would like to thank you because you made it possible for me to represent many millions of Christians at the first G20 Religion Forum.

“The G20, which was founded to prevent future global economic crises, has been mostly a gathering of heads of state, finance ministers, secretaries of trade, and central bankers from the 20 largest economies. More recently the G20 leadership has begun to add discussions of topics that have global impacts on societies and economies. This year, while Indonesia was coordinating the events, discussion of religions was added.”

“Already for a couple generations the largest Indonesian Muslim group, with whom the WEA has a religious freedom joint working group, has been trying to allow the peaceful development of both Protestant and Catholic churches. This peaceful neighborliness of Muslims with Christians forms the background for the economic growth of their country. Now, through the G20, political and religious leaders from other major countries are publicly considering how to apply this model in their countries. Even the first steps in this process, such as top Saudi Arabian Muslim leaders having their pictures taken while attending meetings with Christians, will reduce the persecution of Christians in their countries, including saving the lives of Christians.”

“It is valuable for Christians to support this process and to have representatives at the table for the discussions. Again, thank you for letting me represent Christians in this forum by means of your giving, praying, and encouragement. My invitation to give a speech at this event was the result of years of study, writing, and meetings while you were supporting us. We hope you will continue supporting us with prayer and finances.“

TOM JOHNSON WHO REPRESENTS PCAs MISSION TO NORTH AMERICA AND ACSI MAKES HIMSELF AT HOME AMONG INTERFAITH LEADERS

SOME OF PCA LEADER TOM JOHNSON’S PAST WORK FROM 2021 FROM HIS NEWSLETTER.TOMS INTERFAITH BOOK ACCEPTANCE AND WORK WITH THE STATE DEPARTMENT.

“I wrote my recent book, Humanitarian Islam, Evangelical Christianity, and the Clash of Civilizations. 

“As soon as this book was released online, I sent a PDF of the book, which includes long explanations of important themes in Protestant theology and ethics, to our Muslim counterparts. Some of them read it almost immediately; within a few days after publication, they thanked me for describing them and their views accurately. They are accustomed to inaccurate or even slanderous descriptions of Islam coming from Christians.”

“With my permission they placed my book on their website, along with a very nice communique. They wrote, “The world’s largest Protestant organization has endorsed the Humanitarian Islam movement as an essential vehicle for peacefully and definitively resolving ‘the Muslim-Christian clash of civilizations, which started almost 1,500 years ago. ‘On the day that Pope Francis commenced an historic papal visit to Iraq — which included a meeting with the world’s preeminent Shi‘ite spiritual leader and a tour of Mosul, until recently a stronghold of the defeated ISIS caliphate — the World Evangelical Alliance (WEA) Theological Commission published Humanitarian Islam, Evangelical Christianity, and the Clash of Civilizations.” Until very recently I could not have imagined that the world’s largest Muslim organization would promote a book by a Protestant theologian. PTL!”

“My work representing the WEA in religious freedom efforts of the US State Department is continuing. I do not know if the change at the White House will have a large influence. This means that I am participating in Zoom meetings with religious leaders and diplomats from several countries. Sometimes I can give a speech. Two such speeches are available online: Understanding Religious Persecution and Religious Communities as Good Neighbors.”

CHRISTIAN EDUCATION AND MUSLIM MIGRATION AN ODD MIX IN THE CALVINIST PCA WORLD.

TOM JOHNSON WORK WITH MISSION TO NORTH AMERICA AND REFUGEES.

Representing Refugees and Immigrants

“As you know, I now work part-time for the PCA’s Mission to North America (MNA) Refugee and Immigrant Ministry as the Cross-cultural Training Specialist. In September, in that role, I attended meetings for the heads of the different ministries working under Mission to North American (MNA), not as the head of the Refugee and Immigrant Ministry, but on behalf of the director, Pat Hatch.”

“In October, I stood in for Pat and our ministry again at a Church Planters Summit held at Covenant Seminary. The idea was to have all the ministries of MNA there so church planters can see what is available as they work to grow new churches.”

“Now I am getting to know the ministries in the Knoxville area that are ministering to refugees and immigrants. Recently, I was trained as a volunteer for Bridge Refugee Services, and I met with the person who is the “School Liaison.” She and I will be planning some trainings together, and I may do some tutoring.”

“The fun fact is that these two works, MNA Refugee and Immigrant Ministry and volunteering for Bridge Refugee Services, go hand in hand. I thank the Lord for this privilege.”

ACSI EU and Global

TOM JOHNSON SEALS OF REPRESENTATION

“My work with international Christian school accreditation is continuing with ACSI Global. I am looking forward to going to Europe in April to work with a team at an international Christian school in their accreditation process. In the meantime, I will be meeting with school leaders of this school on Zoom for two days just before Thanksgiving to see how things are going and to give encouragement.”

MORE OF TOM JOHNSONS WORK WITH ACSI FROM 2021

ACSI
“In early March, I was a part of the ACSI Europe team that helped put on a virtual conference in partnership with ECCEN (European Conference for Christian Education in the Netherlands). The bi-annual conference is called the International Educational Leadership Conference and seeks to support and strengthen Christian school leaders. There were 272 people from 46 different countries who joined us in the conference. The Lord be praised“!

“Now our ACSI Europe colleagues will start looking forward to the Student Leadership Conference held in September each year. We are praying it can be face-to-face this year. Last year’s was online. Europe is currently quite locked down, so we just do not know at this point.”
In April, I will be leading an accreditation team for a “virtual” accreditation “visit” of a Christian international school. It is a lot of work for the school and the team, but it strengthens the school and the visiting team members learn a lot. Pray I have wisdom as I help the team and school navigate through a virtual visit.“

“After that accreditation, I will return to my series of workshops on “Teaching with Cultural Intelligence.” I have been asked to develop an online version of it for ACSI’s Pre-Field Orientation (PFO) that is entirely online now.”

CONCLUSION

With massive funding going into “human migration ” and “refugee resettlement ” especially Muslims in the West , groups like the PCA and SBC missions departments certainly have motivation to take a seat at the table . But the inspiration does not come from the Good News of the Gospel since such efforts and interfaith dialog do not include evangelization of the rival religious leaders and participants at the table. Also Government funding prevents the sharing of the Gospel or any efforts to convert the refugees or migrants in programs the government is funding.

The only conclusion that can be honestly reached is that the inspiration comes from the MONEY …in the Hundreds of Millions and Billions . Partner NAE humanitarian arm World Relief is THE recruiter for evangelical partners like the PCA and SBC and it has had a huge windfall of cask for its efforts.

So what else is inspiring these compromises? Perhaps it is the deep deception of thinking these EVANGELICALS can in fact “foster the emergence of a truly just and harmonious world order, founded upon respect for the equal rights and dignity of every human being.”
