The Lie of ‘Progressive Christianity’
My colleague Jerry Pierce wrote the following article for Decision Magazine:
"Back in April when Democratic presidential hopeful Pete
Buttigieg threw stones at “the Mike Pences of the world” for their historic
Christian beliefs about marriage, sexuality and sin, he drew rapt attention
from the news media. He also raised the visibility of a religious movement that
claims the term Christian but denies the full authority of
Scripture on which 'the faith once for all delivered to the saints' (Jude 3,
NKJV) is based.
Buttigieg’s 'progressive Christianity' allows him to claim a
commitment to the faith that Jesus Christ taught in the Gospels and still
remain married to his male partner.
'There’s nowhere to hide on these issues. There are a lot of
Christians who are trying to hide in the tall grass, and that’s not going to
work.' —R. Albert Mohler Jr.
The distortion of God’s Word is the root of all
unfaithfulness, says R. Albert Mohler Jr., president of The Southern Baptist
Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky. It’s a sin that began in the
Garden of Eden and continues as a temptation for all believers, Mohler notes.
