There is a creeping liberalism in the evangelical movement organized. Organizations in the Southern Baptist Convention like the “Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission” (ERLC), magazines like “Christianity Today” and sites like “The Gospel Coalition” have been drifting into political and theological liberalism way too much.

I have benefited from the work of these above organizations, but they need to be REFORMED in some places. One contributor to The Gospel Coalition, for instance, had a published piece in the Washington Post recently. He advocated for evangelicals to NOT work with PRESIDENT TRUMP to get a pro-life SCOTUS Justice.

He insisted he was pro-life, but thought the association with Trump was too dirty. Pretty much like a Pharisee, eh?

Christianity Today has published work by a female ‘evangelical’ who openly celebrated on Twitter the legalization of same sex unions in Australia.

Not good.

My point isn’t to denigrate the whole of these entities. CT and TGC do have good content. But the wheat needs to be separated from the chaff.

Evangelicals for Biblical Immigration might be a good first step.

These people may be well meaning people of faith. But they will be used as useful idiots by the left, if they work with the left on illegal alien matters.

You are so correct. Thabiti Anyabwile aka Ron Burns is the TGC board member/contributor and he is a real concern. ERLC too.
