As we have consistently stated at The Dissenter, if you identify as a Christian, having been transformed by the Holy Spirit and redeemed by Jesus Christ’s blood, the Bible says that you will receive a new heart (Ezekiel 36:26) and will be set apart for good deeds (Ephesians 2:10). This means that it is not possible to be a Christian while also supporting the killing of innocent children, gay rights, gay propaganda, “gay Christianity,” theft (redistribution of wealth), lawlessness (e.g. open borders), a complete lack of individual responsibility (e.g. welfare state, single payer insurance), or the erosion of our right to freely worship God. If you support these godless ideologies or candidates who do, do not expect me to consider you a fellow Christian.

We have often heard appeals for unity from progressive Evangelicals like David Platt and JD Greear, who have tried to encourage respectful disagreement between political progressives and conservatives in the public sphere. The mantra has been to “unite around Christ” while disagreeing on politics.

While this may seem like a noble cause on the surface, it is no longer a viable option for Christians.

While progressivism and liberalism have always been incompatible with godliness and a biblical worldview, recent events have revealed that the Democratic Party and ideological progressives are not only opposed to the Church, but to humanity as a whole. In fact, the Democratic Party poses an existential threat to the Church and to anyone who holds a conservative, biblical worldview.

To be clear, I do not believe that the Church is actually in danger of being destroyed – the Bible makes it clear that the gates of Hell will not prevail against the Church (Matthew 16:17-19). However, this does not mean that the Church will not suffer harm and wounds. It means that God will always have a faithful remnant, and this remnant will flourish despite the gates of Hell rising against it.

It is important to note that the Democratic Party in America, along with all socialist and Communist regimes around the world, are currently the earthly manifestation of the gates of Hell.

In the clip below, Virgil Walker explains during an interview at Turning Point USA that supporting these ideologies that are opposed to God and a biblical worldview place one outside the bounds of Christian orthodoxy. He also warns against making an idol out of conservatism. While conservatism is born out of a biblical worldview, conservatism without Christ is still dead works.
