The ERLC Needs To End

The Problem With the ERLC and Russell Moore's Platform

So I just want to make a quick video here. Sorry for the quality of this. I've just got my my webcam here. I'm in my in-laws basement right now. We're in New Hampshire. Just getting ready for the the big move we've got a few things going on this week and I noticed that one of my favorite YouTube channels is called thinking biblically.

He did a video about yours truly. This is the third video that he's done about me and When I was listening to it, I was I was laughing about it because in the beginning he starts to say that that I'm worse Than I'm worse than wokeness.

I'm worse than the LGBTQ. Whatever agenda. I'm worse than Seeker sensitive he even said I was worse than murderers and I was laughing about it, you know, just to myself, you know I'm not psycho. So I wasn't laughing out loud.

Anyway, I was laughing about it. And then he said I was worse than coronavirus and that's where I started to Really question my life. Nah, just kidding. It's pretty funny though. But yeah, the big deal that he really doesn't like covenant theology.

He really doesn't like theonomy and look, I mean if you don't like covenant theology, I mean, it was something really I can say to you I'm not gonna really debate someone whose YouTube channel is called thinking biblically the biblically can't even talk right now on covenant theology, but Theonomy, you know, look everyone likes to use that as a big scary word.

All I believe is that the general equity of the civil law that God gave to Israel. It does actually obligate nations today not the specific law. But rather the general equity of that law and that's what I'm interested in.

That's what I'm after. That's what I'm talking about. The whole video is just a very big miss misunderstanding of me talking about what justice is and how God blesses a country that does justice. But he likes to what he likes to do is Misunderstand when you're talking about stuff like that.

We all I mean adults understand this kind of stuff, but he likes to misconstrue it and pretend like you're talking about justification. And how you how someone is made right before God, which is of course is not what we're talking about.

These are separate issues. Of course, they are certainly related. In fact, the Bible addresses both and we need to consider both. So it's not like they're completely disconnected from each other. But it's a very simple, you know, he's done I think at this point just about three hours.

Face planting on this one mistake that could be refuted in one sentence. So anyway, give it a watch every time I every time he does a video about me or James White or Jeff Durbin. Or you know people like that.

He tipped he tends to get a bump in viewership. Which he's earned. I think he's earned that. I don't think there's anything wrong with that. Anyway this weekend I've been thinking a lot about the ERLC and I've got a lot of content about the ERLC.

Why the ERLC Is Worthless

On Saturday, I put out a video called the ERLC is completely worthless and I I fully believe that I think that the world would be a better place if the ERLC No longer existed. But anyway. So I've been looking at my old content about the ERLC.

Let me recommend to you take a look at some of the content I put out with the tag ERLC. It's some good stuff. I found two things that I want to recommend to you. I'll post the the links in the in the in the description of this video.

The first one is about do you remember that video? This is classic. Do you remember when the ERLC released? Excuse me a video of this super liberal looking guy just you know, typical kind of you know.

Squishy progressive type of looking person. I don't really know how to describe it. But when you see him, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about. It's just absolutely classic. Anyway talking about how the cutting edge of pro-life advocacy is non-human animal persons or something like that and.

And the ERLC put this out about how how just like human babies in the womb. Animals are marginalized and forgotten about and stuff like that and it's the stupidest thing ever and I did of course I did a parody of this but anyway, it's really stupid and the ERLC actually apologized for this because a lot of people were like dude, what is this and.

And a lot and the ERLC apologized. They said it was a mistake. It was released by mistake. But we're also expected to believe with this apology that it was recorded by mistake. Edited by mistake produced by mistake and then finally put live by mistake.

Nobody in there in their right mind believed that but of course if you're a Southern Baptist you paid for that. The the second video, oh you should definitely watch it it's it's Unbelievably stupid, but I recommend it to you.

And again, your dollars are paying for that. The second video was about socialism. Now I started this video with about a two-minute clip kind of joking about it. But then the rest of the video about 25 minutes or so is serious.

Russell Moore, Socialism, and Democratic Socialism

It's a serious response. It's Russell Moore on Socialism, which you probably pay for his YouTube channel as well. If you're a Southern Baptist, I know you pay for his personal blog. So all y 'all are out there basically helping Russell Moore build his platform and you know build his personal brand with your money.

But anyway, it's a serious response about Russell Moore doing a video where he starts off saying I hate socialism, which sounds pretty good. But in the video. You'll see it's just not helpful in any way and it does not do anything to combat the democratic socialism that we're seeing.

In fact, it actually buttresses many of the primary points that a guy like Bernie Sanders makes and so again. This is stuff that if you're in the SPC you're paying for this and you really need to consider why you don't have to there's nothing In the Bible that says you have to pay for it.

I recommend both of those videos for you one if you want to laugh the animal video. Which it's good if you want to laugh. But at the same time it should kind of make you angry because you paid for that Garbage and then the second one the one about social socialism.

It's a little bit more important and I think I definitely recommend spending, you know 25 minutes and listening to that video in its entirety and you'll see what I mean. By how it's completely worthless to the issue that we face today.

I saw somebody tweet that Russell Moore is the most important ethicist of our time and stuff like that. And when you watch that socialism video that I'm gonna recommend to you you'll see that that's just unbelievable unbelievable Russell I wish my wife was more like Hillary Clinton more.

That's the that that you're paying for him to promote himself. Essentially. That's that's what this is. The year I'll see is his he gets the interns all there just to promote him and his ideas and to basically Thrust him into the political spotlight.

Which is something that he claims to have always been after since he was a little little little. Maybe not a little kid, but maybe a young man. He's wanted to be a politician wanted to be a player in politics and guess what guys you're bankrolling that.

You're bankrolling his play. There is nothing in me that says I mean, let's just face it Russell Moore will be in politics like an actual politician. He'll run for office and he's doing it all on the hard-earned dollars of Southern Baptists everywhere.

Do you really want to pay for that?
