The Sissiness of Evanglicalism

Sissified "evangelicalism" rather have

The Lamb, not the Lion.
The Baby not the Carpenter.
The Servant not the King.
The humanity not the divinity.
The Prince of Peace not the Judge ruling with a rod of iron ,sword, and fire.
The Savior not the Sovereign.
The feeder of the 10,000, but not the slayer of the first-born in Egypt.

Looking at such a Jesus, it resembles the one of Rome rather than the one of Scripture.

"Evangelicalism" is steeped in feminism, which turns...

men into boys, warriors into cowards, women into men, leaders into followers, boldness into mealy-mouthed. It makes men quiet and women loud, men learning while women teaching. It makes men lazy and women frustrated; women to be the bread winners ; divorce as acceptable while marriage temporary; rejects submission of wives to husbands and husbands as leaders.

It turns...

certainty into doubt; truth into opinion; marriage into divorce; Scripture into a mere guide book; church discipline into psychological self-esteem; purity into impurity; sin into mistakes; holiness into ungodliness; spirituality into temporary "social justice"; grace into works; preaching into cheerleading; death of Self into love of Self; the role of pastor over to the psychologist.

It has a god that...

is human not divine; always learning but never truly and exhaustively omnicient; man-centered not God-centered; offering but not demanding; wishing for things but not controlling all things; must learn from man; is chopped up into an OT God (mean) and NT God (nice); is double-minded; a friend not a parent; a politician, not King; is just love but not holy; happy, not wrathful; mealy-mouthed, not bold; effeminate, not powerful and sure.

It has man that...

is sovereign, not God; has a high view of himself and a low view of God; he determines his own destiny; knows God's will for all individuals; decides God's actions and reactions; is Self-centered; teaches God what to do;has free will but denies God the same; demands God do things yet rejects God's demands on those who call themselves Christians; considers himself to be the king and God the slave; knows better than God, loves better than God, is more powerful than God.

They have a Bible that...

is not poweful; is mere opinion or suggestion; is ancient and dead, not living, active, and eternal; is cultural not cross-cultural; is limited in its wisdom; is dull not double-edged; is the last resort not the first, primary, and only source for Truth and Wisdom.
