Secret Activists Queering Evangelical Churches?
This is what I’ve seen from secular counterparts who keep tabs on the far left. The far left are into “queering,” (and “queer theory”) which involves erasing and removing any and all categories of biological sex and sexuality – they will end up justifying and promoting every thing from animal abuse (bestiality) to child molesting.
That is where all this is headed – the current transgender craze is just an early step in that.
If you think this is just about Christian bakers baking wedding cakes for homosexual weddings, that was only the beginning… this is going to end up with these freaks trying to justify lowering age of consent, allowing adult humans to molest and rape animals, and allowing any biological male pervert access into locker rooms and bathrooms of girls and women, so long as said biological male pervert claims he “identifies as a woman.”

Excerpts:

Earlier today, I was interviewed by a Christian television show. The reporter asked me how the churches have received Live Not By Lies.
I told him we had sold over 150,000 copies in just over a year, and that I hear anecdotally about individuals and churches preparing, but that overall, it seems that most American churches, and American Christians, prefer to console themselves with the idea that everything is going to be just fine if we keep doing what we have been doing, only with more heart. This, I said, is dangerously naive.
Well, late this afternoon, I had an extraordinary telephone conversation with a friend who is a senior state leader in a nationally prominent Evangelical denomination, one that skews conservative on LGBT issues. He just returned from a conference, and said, “I think you need to know what the next front in the culture war is.”
My friend told me that pastors in five different churches in the southern region of his state reported at the conference the same phenomenon.
They have had strangers come and join their congregations, and six months or so later, come out as transgender, and demand their rights as official members of the congregation.
It has happened to so many of these churches, in the same period of time, that they believe it is part of a concerted effort to undermine those churches.
I don’t have permission to give identifying details of the denomination and the particular state, but my friend told me that there is serious concern among the denomination’s lawyers that these undercover trans activists have found a legal way to force these congregations to capitulate on trans issues, or face ruinous lawsuits.
….He went on to say that most of the people in his denomination believe that being a Christian is mostly about holding certain cultural beliefs (including politics) and being nice. “They can’t understand why people don’t like them, and they think that if they’re nice, they’ll win people over,” he said. “I have tried to explain why this isn’t true, but most of the leaders in [my denomination] don’t want to believe it. In ten years, this church is going to look very, very different.”
My friend and I talked further about how diabolical this strategy is by trans activists.
It sounds crazy, because it is crazy. If I did not know the man I was talking to, I would have trouble believing it.
But look, this is not a rumor: again, this man I talked to today spent the last few days talking face-to-face with the pastors who are dealing with this, trying to help them understand what’s happening. My friend is pretty savvy about this kind of thing, but this left him shaken.
This is the reality that traditional Christians in this culture have to face today. We know that Generation Z is likely to be the first generation in American history in which a majority will not be affiliated with a church. We also know that Generation Z is far more liberal on sexual morality, and far less liberal when it comes to tolerating dissent.
I suggested to my friend that it is going to take most of the Boomers dying off for church leaders to have a clearer picture of the peril that conservative Christianity is facing. He agreed.
He told me that he is deeply discouraged about the future of traditional Christianity in his denomination and in his state, saying that the leadership in so many churches prefer to keep their heads buried in the ground, because they can’t emotionally accept the reality of what is happening.
….UPDATE. 3:
Naturally in the comments, liberal readers are mocking this. Fine, I expect that. I just want the rest of you to understand that this is a real and urgent issue.
A reader writes:
This move is alarming and its exactly what I’d expect. Yes, churches should get their theology of the body statements and contact ADF. Absolutely. But that will not save them.
Yes, churches can expel/bar members for any reason.
But in America, you can sue for any reason.
The trial itself can be the trial – lawfare. Lengthy legal procedures can be financially ruinous and just sap people’s strength.
How many times was the Colorado baker sued?
Maybe a Bush/Trump appointee will throw such cases out, but an Obama/Biden judge?
May very well allow the procedure to continue–that’s the persecution. How much money and resources do these churches and denominations have? …
