- Critical race theory and intersectionality are two social justice philosophies that assume racism and sexism are everywhere.
- 00:11
- Seeing the world through these critical lenses is called being woke. Critical race theory divides people into categories and examines who has privilege and who does not, or who is the oppressor and who is oppressed.
- 00:23
- It's in bed with intersectionality, taking social and moral credibility away from those said to be privileged and entitling those said to be oppressed, based on intersecting points in their identity.
- 00:35
- If a woman is black and identifies as a lesbian, she has three intersecting points of discrimination, being a woman who is black and a lesbian.
- 00:44
- She is said to be more oppressed than, say, a white straight man, who is made her oppressor, so she can assume moral superiority and gain expertise by experience.
- 00:54
- The objective is to control people. This does not bring people together. The Bible says, see to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the world, and not according to Christ.
- 01:10
- Those subjecting the church to these philosophies are puffed up with conceit, with an unhealthy craving for controversy and quarrels about words, which produce envy, dissension, slander, evil suspicions, and constant friction.
- 01:24
- That's all you will ever see concerning critical race theory and intersectionality. They are meant to divide.
- 01:31
- In Romans, we're told to watch out for those who cause divisions and deceive the hearts of the naive. 1
- 01:36
- Corinthians 1 .10 says, let there be no divisions among you, but be united, in the same mind and in the same judgment, in Christ, when we understand the text.

- The Wokeness and the Gospel conference is coming June 11 -12 to Denton Bible Church in Denton, Texas.
