This is a winsome take on a very serious blunder/lie/deception or something like that. No Quarter: https://dougwils.com/books-and-culture/s7-engaging-the-culture/inerrancy-as-the-queen-mum-of-evangelicalism.html

- Well, it turns out that Winsome November is not the first time I've been winsome.
- 00:06
- I was very winsome before. You remember Smooth AD? This is actually a really good clip. Cody Liebolt reminded me of it.
- 00:12
- This is a good companion piece to Doug Wilson's most recent
- 00:18
- No Quarter November article about inerrancy. If you have not read it, I will link to it in the description here.
- 00:24
- You should definitely go read it, but look what I said. It's very similar. Very similar. Let's listen to this very winsome guy.
- 00:31
- Smooth AD. With an authority that is rooted in Scripture, you shall not kill.
- 00:38
- That's what I'm talking about. You shall not enslave. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
- 00:47
- Dr. Moore. Hey, that's not in the Bible.
- 00:53
- Let's just be honest about that. You know, I always wonder about that. You know, people always talk about slavery like it's the ultimate sin, and I gotta be honest with you.
- 01:01
- I don't know if I'm reading the same Bible you're reading. Because in my Bible, it has all kinds of laws about slavery and regulating it.
- 01:09
- But one of the things that does not say, Dr. Moore, and I'm trying to be smooth when I say this.
- 01:15
- It does not say thou shalt not enslave. That's not one of the Ten Commandments, sir. That's true.
- 01:20
- It's not one of the Ten Commandments. But you see what you gotta do, though? ADs, you gotta look at the overarching thrust of the
- 01:27
- Bible. You see, that's how you get into all kinds of trouble. The overarching thrust. Because I can play those games, too, with other things, right?
- 01:34
- Like, look at the overarching thrust, and that's how you know that sodomy's okay now.
- 01:40
- I can play all kinds of games with this. But what people don't want to do, they want to play a lot of games with the
- 01:45
- Bible, but they just, they don't want to just believe what it says. That's what I want to do. I just want to believe what it says.
- 01:51
- Go ahead and read the No Quarter November article. I think you'll love it. I think you will. I don't know if you will, but hey, do it anyway.
