In a recent conversation with Jim Davis at The Gospel Coalition, Pastor of McLean Bible Church in the DC area, David Platt offered his assessment of the political tensions within the American Church that warrants a biblical critique.
There's a good reason that so many of us have departed the once-great McLean Bible, once led by the estimable Lon Solomon, for churches like Cornerstone Chapel in Leesburg, VA, led by Gary Hamrick. So many on the staff there used to serve at McLean, which has reportedly seen a 43% drop in membership under David Platt, especially after his post-George Floyd wokeness emerged.
In case you were wondering exactly where this "McLean Bible Church" is located, its website is pretty explicit. Its campus is sprinkled liberally (pun, but accurate) around Washington, DC, that viper's pit of big government acolytes. Is it any wonder he preaches a "gospel" that pretends to eschew "politics," by which he means "conservative, small government, Constitutionally based government," because that would kill all his fund raising, since it would result in the immediate unemployment of about 90% of his congregation. How could he sustain his current lifestyle on 10% of his contributions? This guy is a putz and a scam artist. He preaches a false "gospel" to a congregation that wants to be congratulated on its "progressive, enlightened" thinking, by which I mean demonic, self-indulgent, sinful and degenerate. "For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths." 2 Timothy 4: 3-4.
We need to not be using Satan's equivocating terminology that is a smokescreen euphemism for what the demonic actually is.
So let's tell it like it is: abortion isn't " killing" ........it is out and out MURDER, regardless of whether or not it has a label of "legal" applied to it.
"PROCHOICE" is another damnable euphemism. PROCHOICE may sound nice and have a respecter-of-human- rights slant to it, but nothing could be further from the truth.
You need to understand that the people who use this word fervently want you to exercise a legal "right" to murder your preborn child. They do not want you to let your child live! Do you think the people running the abortion industry want people to exercise their right to choose by choosing LIFE for their child? No. THEIR MONEY IS MADE thru women duped into choosing DEATH For their children. Cash on the barrel for every BABY MURDER.
