@MatWright but let's be honest, it's ABBOTSFORD.

Sometime back, maybe 5 years ago, I came across the phrase #exvangelical . It resonated with me as I was exploring #orthodoxy and some of my deeply held convictions were fraying at the edges. Just a few days ago, on seeing the term in someone's bio, i realize I have fully walked that path now. I am thankful for my time in #protestant land as an #evangelical but I am glad to have joined the ancient church.

Do you remember the book & Windows CD-ROM "The Bible Code" came out or was your family not as wildly evangelical pentecostal as mine?
:blobcatthink: 😅https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Bible_Code_(book)
BTW, it was published by Simon & fucking Schuster. Not some niche Christian press.

@theogrin It has been my lived experience over decades.
I wish it was common knowledge, but I'm not sure of much of anything these days.
"The guilty dog barks the loudest" comes to mind, though.

Umm...I actually read the red words.
“And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full."

A very accurate meme of the leader of the evangelicals.

https://theconversation.com/how-apocalyptic-worldviews-are-moving-from-the-fringes-to-the-corridors-of-power-286581. It's very interesting that these #Christian #Zionists & #Evangelical #believers in #Armageddon are also disbelievers in #Climatechange & #biodiversity #loss. As for Mr Andreessen & his #accelerationism (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marc_Andreessen; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerationism), far from solving our existential problems, it will make them a whole lot worse.

Today’s Tarot: Clarity (Q&A)
https://youtu.be/A7InMa2oCjQ?si=tKeE68AJXtOKi3v1
Q: What do we most need to know right now in the United States following Lindsey Graham’s death and conjecture about Mitch McConnell’s.
I drew this card with this question in mind, right after seeing a social media post from someone who I typically has good points and real food for thought. This may well be the first time I’ve disagreed with him.
But no, this isn’t a time for tut-tutting about “speaking ill of the dead” from either side of the political divide. Graham was not a good person who, because of his political power, inflicted real harm on real people and contributed much to the rise of fascism and white christian nationalism in America today.
I’m sorry for the loss of any kind person who feels his – or their – passing. But at the same time it is fair to think they are lying in the bed they made during their lifetime.
The social media person clucked something on the order “saying these things says more about you as a person than it does about them.
Not this time.
If making fun of a powerful bad man says something about the person saying it….what does a powerful man’s silence about the death of school girls at the hands of unnecessary war, the death of women at the hands of politically and religiously motivated abortion bans, the death of schoolchildren at the hands of our lack of gun control….and on and on and on. What does silence about these dead say about THEM? I’d rather people make merciless fun of the politicians who caused harm than remain silent in the face of the harm they caused.
It’s more important to be kind to everyone living than to worry about what is said about the dead.
Laughter is good medicine. Public figures who caused real harm aren’t going to be any less dead if we only say nice things about them after they’ve been rendered harmless by the inevitable. Momento Mori.
In the noise of current events, the Ace of swords reminds us to cut to the chase, get to the point, simplify. Tune out the static and get right down to what really matters. In the end, kindness is the only measure of what that is.

Both because it is absolutely necessary AND there is already a blueprint for it in the Judeo-Christian worldview. I use to hear about the "Year of Jubilee" growing up in #evangelical church.

"As a former leader of the #ComandoVermelho I interviewed for a my article told me, to #evangelical Christians, funk is acceptable because it represents the devil, which is something you can repent. Samba, Jongo, Capoeira and other traditions represent an alternative religious belief system were things that evangelicals needed to destroy.
Whereas it is true that there were a few evangelical Christians on the 1994 and 2002 World Cup teams, most weren’t explicitly connected to prosperity gospel churches. This started with Kaka and Robinho, whose family belonged to the same prosperity gospel Church as #Neymar. Neymar followed and has been a huge influence on the current generation of players. The 2026 squad only has one non-evangelical in the starting lineup.…
This has resulted in #narcissistic players who believe they are famous because they are more special than commoners, more holy than lesser players. It’s not very good for teamwork and this was exemplified by Neymar’s individualist histrionics when he came onto the pitch after the mandatory corporate advertising break in the second half of the game against Norway."https://bmier.substack.com/p/brazil-fizzles-again-the-capitalist

You entered into me attempting to educate an #evangelical because their use of #biblical text was off (wrong in more than one case), and misdirected.
The fact that they have taken this path , makes it even worse.

just so y’all understand that the #SSPX is basically a #fascist cult, without Lefebvre there would have, most likely, never been a Jean-Marie Le Pen or a National Front in #France

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Controversies_surrounding_the_Society_of_Saint_Pius_Xthe SSPX was #MAGA #evangelical #christofascist before it was cool. you've never heard of them because they hate evangelicals, christofascists or otherwise.

CW: Spanking of children, aka child abuse, James Dobson
James Dobson's crimes were many but today we celebrate someone's social media comment, riffing on one of Dobson's infamous prescriptions for spanking very young children to break their "strong will", that perhaps he'll spend eternity on a blanket in hell wearing a toddler's diaper, being spanked every time he moves off the blanket. https://www.spankingblog.com/2025/08/22/james-dobson-in-hell/

Why should those who are #Reformed & #evangelical insist on the importance of #liturgical #worship ?
Because:
1) Worship is always presented as liturgical in the #Bible
2) Liturgical worship is the historic/universal form of the Church’s worship.
3) Liturgical worship is #sacramental - it presents the Gospel not only via the word, but also through the #sacraments ordained by God - and as such it is more faithfully biblical.
4) ALL the magisterial reformers worshipped liturgically.
5) Biblically shaped liturgy is missionally oriented - it shapes the worshipper for/towards #mission .
6) Liturgy is formative of “sticky” #faith : a) because it engages a person’s whole being, it tends to reinforce faith wholistically (not merely intellectually), b) because it is is sacramental the person TANGIBLY encounters God’s #grace , c) because historic liturgy is robustly biblical it soaks the person in Scripture, and d) because it is patterned/repetitive it becomes engrained. -
Here’s an Ash Wednesday story for you all. When I was in college, a friend showed up to class with a grey smudge on her forehead.
I pulled her aside and quietly let her know she had something on her forehead. She laughed and told me it was Ash Wednesday.
I was raised so Evangelically that this possibility had never crossed my mind. 😂
(To give context, Evangelicals do not generally observe Ash Wednesday or Lent).

What #Katie #Britt’s misleading, melodramatic speech revealed about the Republican Party
The question for the #evangelical #voters who make up much of the Republican base is
-- how much more politics can #outweigh #morals in the name of whatever conservatism even means anymore?Politico reported Monday that an evangelical group is 🔸spending north of $60 million🔸 to get a twice-impeached, repeatedly indicted former president back in the White House,
so perhaps that is our answer.The whole “moral majority” movement in conservative politics always involved #theatrics and #cosplay.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene took it to a new level by deploying Hunter Biden’s sexting photos during a House committee hearing.
And now the future of the Republican Party is sitting in a kitchen purporting to speak honestly with voters of faith while telling a lurid lie for political purposes.

In high school, my curiosity continued. I went to a private Christian high school that was part of the Association of Christian Schools International. Despite being an Evangelical bubble, it gave me an opportunity to learn about and experience cultures outside of the US via exhange student programs and international missions trips which ultimately sparked my interest in international travel as an adult. 5/14
