Welcome back to another tour of the craziness that is progressive Christianity. Sometimes, I approach these columns with a theme in mind, but that wasn’t my plan this week. It wasn’t until I finished compiling these examples that I realized that there was a theme, and it’s that progressive churches will preach anything but the gospel.
Let’s start with a doozy. My friend and colleague Sarah Anderson sent me a post on X featuring a woman pastor (shocker) with sort of a mohawk (bonus) spouting a bunch of left-wing clichés that start with “I’m a pastor…”
I'm a pastor. Of course I believe that all lives matter, but right now,

Another biblical prophecy coming to pass from 2 Timothy: "But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people." -- Bingo.

We now have full-fledged "Christian" denominations that do not require Christ and that only believe in Biblical imperatives that match their world view.

I was confirmed into the UCC denomination 65 years ago. Within a year my parents left the church because it was too liberal for them. They never joined another one. Currently that same church is now pastored by a trio of ministers ~ a gay man, a lesbian, and a heterosexual woman. I assume the congregation consists mostly of people who pursue alternative lifestyles so I doubt very little, if any, Biblical truth is preached. I think it's a safe bet to also believe that the word "sin" has never been uttered by any of these ministers. Shortly after this trio became pastors our local paper interviewed one of them who indicated that first and foremost he wanted his flock to know that "they were OK just the way they are". Did this pastor ever study Romans 3?? Only one Person Who ever walked the earth was "OK" just the way He was.
Our paper's reporting on this church was positively glowing, focusing on the love and tolerance evident within it.
There are too many "synagogues of satan" masquerading as Christ's church; thankfully the LORD has noticed and He does intend to make corrections.

Acts 4:1213 Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated and untrained men, they marveled. And they realized that they had been with Jesus.
A 'church' without Christ as the basis is a mere congregation of believers in another Gospel.
Galatians 1:1-10 But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed. As we have said before, so now I say again, if anyone preaches any other gospel to you than what you have received, let him be accursed.

From the article:
"a woman pastor (shocker) named Rebecca White Newgren"
"They" got to her. A very severe case of White Guilt

There is no such thing as "progressive Christianity".
"...women, and those who can bear children."
She isn't a "pastor".

A fat broad with a mohawk? I'd be gone in ten seconds from that "church".

A few years ago, our neighbor invited us to her UCC "church" for her re-marriage to her ex-husband. The "church" was led by a woman who was having a relationship with the female music leader. It was a very uncomfortable service; God was not being glorified. I don't remember if the neighbor's gay son attended; he had moved to Brazil to be in a homosexual relationship with the love of his life. (I had gotten into a discussion with the neighbor regarding the Bible and homosexual practice -which resulted in straining our relationship.) That was several years ago. Since then, the ex-ex husband has died, the widowed neighbor has moved away, and the son broke up with his lover in South America. Oh --- and her UCC "church" is no longer there.

Watching this "pastor" made me realize I need to give Pope Leo XIV just a bit of slack...

Thank you to all who have posted. You all have given me hope that many won't be deceived by these liberal churches. In 2ndThess. Paul writes that those who love the Truth (and Jesus is the Truth and Jesus is the Word of God/scriptures) that you will not be deceived by these false prophets. God bless you all for your discernment.

It would seem that forgiveness has taken on a whole new meaning. What is left out is that Jesus tells us to repent, sin no more (turn away from what you are doing), and turn to God's ways. It just seems that there are churches out there affirming ways other than what God wants from us.

Progressive Christianity is an oxymoron just like Rap Music, Military Intelligence, Gay Pride, Miracle Drug, Artificial Intelligence, etc. They work so hard to want you to believe it but the very concepts are ludicrous, obvious propaganda.

If sin is no longer sin, then man no longer needs the Church…because he no longer needs a savior. - Aaron Edwards
Father God has given every person the freedom to believe whatever they choose - but with that freedom comes the limitation that believing in Jesus is the only way to Heaven.

The absolute genius of our Lord Jesus Christ shines through in a time like this when our Lord succinctly asked one of the most profound questions in all Scripture during one of His many dialogues with the Pharisees,
Matthew 22:42 - saying, “What do you think about the Christ? Whose Son is He?”
How a person answers that question tells you the spiritual condition of their soul. Likewise, when asked of a pastor, preacher, or priest, will let you quickly know whether you should subjugate yourself under HIS teaching.
(Sorry leftists, but the Bible is very clear that at NO time is a female EVER authorized to wield spiritual authority over an adult male. (I Cor 14:34))
