What if your every action, every word, and even your thoughts were subject to constant scrutiny and judgment? What if a centralized authority determined your worth based on a score, dictating your access to basic rights and freedoms?This is not dystopian fiction—this...
Jack Graham, a Southern Baptist megachurch pastor, apparently has mistaken a political circus for a move of the Holy Spirit as he recently praised the 2024 Republican National Convention as a “spiritual movement.” Such an assertion, dripping with misplaced zeal, is...
In a post-Christian culture where even a minute illusion of professing Christianity still exists, sensationalism often supersedes substance and the allure of prophetic visions and mystical experiences continues to bewitch believers. A case in point is the recent claim...
When a true believer goes to church on Sunday morning, the expectation is that the Scriptures will be opened, read, and taught. The expectation is that God will be honored and worshiped in spirit and in truth. And that the Word of God will convict of us our sin and...
Two teachers at a Southern Baptist Church-affiliated Christian school are completely baffled at why they were fired for attending a drag show featuring sex perverts and celebrating sexual immorality. Caught like a dear in headlights, they had absolutely no clue at...
We've written to you in the past that First Baptist Church Orlando, a Southern Baptist megachurch in Orlando, Florida, was openly baptizing practicing homosexuals and there has been absolutely no accountability from the Southern Baptist Convention for these...
It’s no secret that the woke social justice movement isn’t actually about racial reconciliation, but a progressive agenda designed to overturn civilized society, wreak havoc, and institute an economic and political system that has exchanged Constitutional freedoms...
In an era where absurdity appears to have become the new norm, an article at New Ways Ministry titled Queer Theory and Theology Can Help Widen Church’s Understandings of God and Creation epitomizes this trend with stunning arrogance. The claims made in this hit piece...
In Part I of our Snares of the Modern Church series, we dissected the issues of the modern church aligning with the prosperity gospel and an overemphasis on speculative interpretations about the unknown, drawing upon the wisdom of Colossians 2:8, 2 Corinthians 11:3,...
One of the nation's most notoriously woke pastors, Rich Villodas, recently spewed his hatred for Christianity and God while blaspheming God and accusing him of being behind the LGBTQ movement. His fundamental question—how do we free ourselves from the culture...
In an unsurprising assault on biblical truth and Christian orthodoxy, the Roman Catholic Pope Francis has yet again aligned himself with the cultural zeitgeist, telling a young transvestite that "God loves us as we are." According to an article in the Vatican's own...
You may remember several years ago when a highly popular pastor, Josh Harris, surprised the Christian world with his sudden apostasy as he divorced his wife and became an open activist for the LGBTQ community. Oh, you weren't surprised? Well, neither was I, and...
Whatever the fascination is among certain crowds with foul-mouthed celebrities and anti-Christ figures, it's a trend that has this nation in its grips. But worse, the trend has taken over the professing Church to such a degree that their filth is promoted in pulpits...
Here at The Dissenter, we have repeatedly hammered the undeniable fact that the contemporary Christian music industry is essentially a breeding ground for apostasy. We've covered numerous artists and bands that have fallen over the last several years. From one of...
I'm not legalistic when it comes to what you wear to church, even if you're a pastor. But there is a such thing as reverence, and there are some who go out of their way to be irreverent in how they present themselves to the Lord for worship. Take Pastor Scott...
I post this here as an example of exactly how NOT to advocate for life at an abortion clinic. As one who has spent many hours in front of abortion clinics preaching the gospel and pleading with mothers not to murder their children, I can readily admit that the...
If you can't trust a man to pastor his church according to the edicts of Scripture, how can you trust him to run the country if elected president? The answer? You can't. That's why I would suggest not voting for Ryan Binkley, co-pastor of the non-denominational Create...
Disclaimer: This is not a political article nor is it meant to make a political point. I do that from time to time, and seek to engage politics through a decidedly biblical worldview. That being said, politics can't be completely avoided here, but this article is...
In the midst of a progressive shift and growing divide within the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC), social justice has become the dividing line that some are not willing to cross and others are not willing to go without. The social justice movement in the SBC has...
I've never been a fan of Turning Point USA (TPUSA) or its movement. I really just don't care much for the personalities involved in it, particularly, Charlie Kirk. But there are a lot of churches—so-called conservative churches—that are embracing, promoting, and...
The winds of modern thought have blown into the halls of the Church, stirring up a novel perspective that now echoes loudly from the pulpit to the pews. The perception that doubt is a beneficial, even necessary, component of faith has started to hold sway. This novel...
In a recent conversation with Jim Davis at The Gospel Coalition, Pastor of McLean Bible Church in the DC area, David Platt offered his assessment of the political tensions within the American Church that warrants a biblical critique. Platt attempted to identify an...
