BERNIE SANDERS BRINGS ON TERRORIST SUPPORTER AS SENIOR ADVISER 
Celebrating the Black Panthers, the Sandinistas, and the 'Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine'.

Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical Left and Islamic terrorism.
On September 1970, terrorists from the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine hijacked four passenger planes headed for New York City. The Marxist terrorists separated Jewish passengers and took them hostage. The hijackings ushered in the age of modern airline security with x-ray machines and armed sky marshals, and the War on Terror, when President Nixon ordered an attack on the terrorists.
(President Nixon’s order to bomb the terrorist encampments was never carried out due to Secretary of State Henry Kissinger and Defense Secretary Melvin Laird undermining his decision. "I didn't have a big argument about it: I just didn't do it," Laird recalled. He then told Admiral Thomas Hinman Moorer, the head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, to lie that there was too much cloud cover to bomb the terrorists.)
On another September, 31 years later, Islamic terrorists successfully repeated the same feat, and bypassed the antiquated security measures, to hijack four planes, and kill thousands of Americans.
Philip Agnew, Bernie’s new senior advisor, had celebrated the PFLP and had commemorated a 9/11 anniversary by tweeting, "Tomorrow America remembers the day that she turned on herself, dismantled her constitution, and killed her own citizens in the name of money."
“I am excited to welcome Phillip to our team,” Sanders was quoted as saying. “He is a gifted organizer."
Bernie’s gifted organizer had commemorated September 11 with an Instagram caption, "#neverforget what goes round comes round."
The cartoon he was captioning pictured the hijacked planes crashing into the World Trade Center as boomerangs labeled, American foreign policy. The cartoon was by Carlos Latuff, an anti-Semitic and pro-terrorist figure, who had taken second place in Iran's Holocaust cartoon contest.
Agnew had co-founded Dream Defenders, a radical anti-American hate group, which claimed that, “Post 9/11, the US declares a War on Terror and becomes a militarization, incarceration, deportation and surveillance machine around the world, all to keep colonial control over people, land and resources.”
Agnew had also promoted Dream Defender’s Blacked Out common core curriculum meant for children as young as 11, which celebrated the violent racists of the Black Panthers, the Marxist butchers of the Sandinistas, and the PFLP.
The curriculum intended for children celebrates the PFLP terrorist group as a "communist, working‐class party" and "Marxist‐Leninist and revolutionary socialist organization" whose goals include "the destruction of Israel".
"They want to be free from global imperialism. They want liberation. They want equal rights. Just like the Dream Defenders," the curriculum claims.
Dream Defenders neglects to mention that a key strategy in the PFLP’s Marxist-Leninist struggle was the murder of Jewish children.
In the Avivim school bus massacre, PFLP's Marxist-Leninists ambushed a bus full of first, second, and third graders. After waiting for other vehicles to pass, the Communist killers targeted the bus with bazooka shells and machine gun fire leaving the floor covered in bloody text books and lunch boxes.
9 children were killed in the attack and another 19 were wounded. The dead included a brother and sister, 7 and 9 years old.
In the Kiryat Shmona massacre, PFLP terrorists attacked an apartment building, killing everyone they encountered inside, including 8 children.
Iris Sheetrit hid in a closet while the PFLP terrorists shot her mother, her 12-year-old sister, her 8-year-old brother and youngest 5-year-old brother. After they left, she came out and saw her younger brothers lying on the floor. Her dying mother told her to run away and hide.
While these attacks took place in the seventies, the terrorist group has continued to carry out killings. The United States government has designated the PFLP as an FTO or Foreign Terrorist Organization. That means providing material support or resources to the terrorist group is punishable by up to life in prison.
But supporting an FTO doesn’t preclude you from becoming a senior adviser to a presidential candidate.
At least not when that candidate is Bernie Sanders.
Agnew had been a longtime surrogate for the Sanders campaign. He’s been campaigning in Mississippi for Sanders alongside fellow surrogate Danny Glover. Glover had worked with the Black Panthers, a violent racist hate group, was a longtime supporter of Castro and the socialist regime in Venezuela.
"We all embraced Hugo Chavez as a social champion of democracy, material development, and spiritual well-being," Glover had declared.
At a prayer breakfast, during Bernie’s failed effort to win in South Carolina, Al Sharpton, the racist hate group leader, declared that he knows Bernie because he knows his surrogates like, Nina Turner, Cornel West and Phillip Agnew. West is a friend of Louis Farrakhan, the racist leader of the Nation of Islam, who had praised Hitler. He’s a supporter of Hugo Chavez, and is a 9/11 Truther, and a BDS supporter.
Despite Bernie’s insistence that his chosen flavor of socialism is European, the presence of Agnew, Glover, and, West, are reminders that it’s revolutionary Marxism that excites his base.
The Dream Defenders curriculum included support for the Sandinistas: the Marxist thugs who had ethnically cleansed the Miskito Indians and the country’s Jewish community, throwing firebombs at a synagogue, that the regime later seized, while shouting, “Death to the Jews”. More recently, the Sandinistas under Ortega had actually opened fire on a church.
But Bernie Sanders had visited Nicaragua and returned, singing the praises of the Marxist regime. He’s praised Castro, and defended brutal Marxist regimes across the region.
If Sanders were to win the White House, would the Blackout Curriculum be endorsed by the Department of Education? Could we see 6th graders across America being indoctrinated to support terrorism?
And anti-Semitism?
Phillip Agnew had slurred Israel as “ethnic privilege masquerading as a Jewish State” and accused Jews of having replicated, “the cruel discrimination and displacement that led to the founding of your supposed “homeland”. Then he declared that Dream Defenders supports BDS. But Bernie Sanders is surrounded by BDS supporters, including Cornel West, Linda Sarsour, Rep. Ilhan Omar, Danny Glover, and others.
Sanders is touting the support of Jesse “Hymietown” Jackson. The racist bigot had previously claimed that Obama’s reign would stop the "Zionists who have controlled American policy for decades".
The Sanders campaign is full of bigots and supporters of Marxist terrorist organizations.
What does all of this mean for America?
"#thankyouferguson for your Molotov,” Bernie’s new senior adviser had tweeted. That same year, he boasted that he was not an activist, but a militant.
Win or lose, the primary or the election, the Sanders campaign is meant to wreck America. Bernie Sanders claims that he wants a revolution. Take him at his word. His surrogates and advisers do.
____________________________________________________________
  • Bernie Sanders’s 2020 campaign has embraced the far left group Dream Defenders, which seeks to “abolish prisons” and has promoted a designated terrorist group.
  • Sanders’s website touts Dream Defenders’s endorsement and a co-director of the group is a prominent Sanders campaign surrogate. 
  • Democratic Florida Gov. candidate Andrew Gillum’s 2018 campaign was criticized for his ties to Dream Defenders, but Sanders has fully embraced the radical group. 

EUROPE UNDER SIEGE

EUROPE UNDER SIEGE 
Barbarians are storming the gates, but Europeans still won’t pull in the welcome mat.

In 1683 a massive army of the Ottoman Empire laid siege to the Christian city of Vienna. After two months, an allied force that consisted of men from all over the Holy Roman Empire and from other central European states, including Hungary, and that was led by John III Sobieski, the King of Poland and Lithuania, turned the Ottoman soldiers back, preventing the potential Islamization of the continent.
In recent days, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, president of the Ottoman Empire’s successor state, Turkey, has unleashed thousands of Muslims, mostly young males of military age, upon the European Union, today’s not-so-holy but increasingly imperial reincarnation of the Holy Roman Empire. More specifically, Erdogan, in violation of an agreement with the EU that netted him billions, has allowed – and encouraged – these people, who have been routinely described in the Western media as “refugees” and “migrants,” to storm the border separating his country from the EU’s southeasternmost satrapy, Greece. Indeed, he’s lent them active support, providing many of them with free transport to the border, which they’ve attacked with rocks, “makeshift battering rams,” and tear-gas canisters (supplied by Ergodan) while setting fires and shouting “Allahu akbar!” Photos taken at the border underscore just how perverse it is to call these thugs “refugees” or “migrants.”  
Seems like old times. What’s different this time around is that whereas seventeenth-century Europeans understood that they were confronting, in the Islamic invaders of their day, an existential threat to their way of life, many of their descendants don’t seem to have a clue about what they’re dealing with. On Tuesday of last week, and again on Saturday, thousands of Germans, rallying in Berlin and other cities, demanded that the “migrants” on the Greek borders be allowed to pour into the continent and to find their way to Germany, if they wish, so that they can help form “a solidarity society” in which there will be “no more suffering.”
The youth division (CUF) of the Swedish Center Party sent out a similar message, calling on Europeans to “Open your hearts – and your borders” and let the hustling hordes “come here and become part of our society.” In the Swedish cities of Gothenburg (last Wednesday) and Stockholm (Friday), crowds gathered in support of open borders; the latter demo was organized by the group Feminist Initiative, which, in a show of goodwill, has apparently decided to overlook the tendency of Muslim male arrivals to treat their own wives like chattel and treat Swedish women like sex dolls.
It was only five years ago that German chancellor Angela Merkel made the fateful decision to allow into her country tens of thousands of Muslims who were said to be Syrian refugees. Then as now, the Western world’s mainstream media distributed images of suffering women and children (not a few of which were staged). Ultimately, it turned out that the overwhelming majority of the “migrants” were not Syrian families fleeing war but, yes, young males of military age from all over the Muslim world. Nonetheless Merkel’s action was applauded by many of her country’s citizens, who, desperate as ever to prove that they aren’t Nazis, gathered at railroad stations to welcome these aspiring malefactors and welfare recipients with hugs and kisses.
One consequence of Merkel’s irresponsible move was that upwards of a thousand German women were sexually assaulted by their colorful and exotic new countrymen while celebrating New Year’s Eve 2015-16 in the central squares of Cologne and several other major cities. That was a particularly tough night, but hardly a brand-new phenomenon in a continent where the last few decades of Muslim immigration have led to an ever-rising incidence of violent crimes and to drastic funding cuts in everything from education to health care in order to feed, clothe, and house the restive, and not especially appreciative, denizens of ever-expanding sharia enclaves.
A few of the would-be conquerors who are charging the Greek border are indeed Syrians. But most, as an article in the British Metro acknowledged last Friday, are from “other Middle Eastern states and Afghanistan.” (Plus Pakistan, Bangladesh, etc.) Have Europeans forgotten the lessons of the 2015 debacle? Well, some of them obviously never learned them in the first place: the CUF’s chairperson, Ida Alterå, who is all of 22 years old, has reportedly expressed the view “that the main problem of the 2015 migrant crisis was that Europe did not let enough migrants in.”
Stephen Erlanger of the New York Times, who is presumably somewhat older than Ms. Alterå, had an equally fatuous take on what he called “the mismanaged chaos of the 2015 influx of migrants and refugees.” While stating that that inundation “produced horrible pictures of dead children, masses of unregistered people wandering the roads, political divisions and a significant boost to far-right populism across the Continent,” Erlanger avoided mentioning that the tide of immigrants also led to countless rapes and other weighty challenges to European freedom and security.
Some European leaders have taken these challenges seriously by acting to protect their nations, but here’s how Erlanger characterized their moves: “populists from Viktor Orban in Hungary to Matteo Salvini in Italy and the Alternative for Germany party have profited from the chaos of 2015 and the influx of more than a million people, mostly Muslim. The populists have vowed loudly to defend European and national borders, and identity.” So it is that responsible attempts by leaders to protect their own citizens are reduced to cynical, self-serving, and probably racist political moves.
As for the Greek government, it’s doing its best to push back the barbarians at its gates. It has no choice. Greece is an economic basket case and has already been overrun with more Muslims than it can ever hope to handle. As Patrick Strickland admitted last week in a long report on the border crisis for the New York Review of Books (NYRB), Greece – which at first reacted with hospitality to the arrival of Muslim masses on its shores – has long since become a “refugee warehouse” in which the residents of some islands are outnumbered by the needy and raucous newcomers.
Nonetheless, all the usual suspects are savaging Greece for trying to save itself. Amnesty International has accused Greece of violating EU and international law by putting an emergency one-month hold on accepting new asylum applications. The UN High Commissioner on Refugees adds that Greece is in breach of the 1951 Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees. Human Rights Watch (HRW), maintaining that there’s “no legal basis or justification” for Greece’s stance, has called on the EU to “respond with compassion to the arrival of people fleeing conflict and persecution by putting their dignity and humanity at the center of its response.” And Edouard Rodier of the Norwegian Refugee Council has urged European countries to take in the Muslims: “Europe needs to take responsibility for what is happening now at its external borders. It cannot suspend people’s right to seek asylum.”
A few questions. If the governments of Europe are obliged “to take responsibility for” foreigners – most of whom, frankly, are healthy-looking young males  – what responsibility do those governments have to their own citizens – among them the elderly, the infirm, the women who are already scared to walk the streets at night, and the girls who are the same age as Britain’s grooming-gang victims? If the Muslims at the Greek border have a “right to seek asylum,” exactly what rights do the taxpayers of Europe have? Do they deserve the “compassion” to which HRW refers? Why should the “dignity and humanity” of Muslims from other continents trump the “dignity and humanity” of native Europeans? At what point in this decades-long Islamic tsunami will it be acceptable for the people of Europe to say “enough” without being called bigots?  
Strickland, in his NYRB piece, introduced us to two men, “twenty-five-year-old Omar al-Daloo and thirty-year-old Saber al-Kolak,” whom he met at a Greek migrant camp. Both were from the Gaza strip; both had left home with the goal of reaching “Germany or somewhere else in Western Europe”; and both “have wives and children at home, and hope that obtaining asylum will afford them family reunification.”
Strickland was plainly out to gin up reader sympathy for these gents and their kinfolk. But they’re not refugees. They have absolutely no right of asylum in Europe. They’re economic migrants, plain and simple, who seek to exploit the present situation in order to relocate their broods to welfare states that already are diverting too much taxpayer money to pay for the upkeep of alien freeloaders. The irony here is that the countries Omar and Saber are eager to fleece have already poured untold sums into their native Gaza, money that was intended to relieve poverty and that has instead been used for a range of other purposes, all of them nefarious.
“With everyone living on top of one another” at the Greek refugee camp, reported Strickland, “fights over food and water distribution and spots in the morning queue to see the doctor” have become “a daily reality.” Note to Strickland: people live “on top of one another” in a great many cities around the world without constantly resorting to violence. A day before Strickland’s visit to the camp, “some Palestinians and Somalis had clashed after a minor disagreement, over exactly what no one could recall. There were threats, stones thrown, knives pulled out, and several men ended up being carted off to the hospital.” Yes, by all means let’s throw open the gates of Europe for these delightful folks.
In a report published last Thursday, Marie Jégo outdid Strickland in the sob-sister department, waxing poetic about the “haggard eyes” and “drawn features” of the people she encountered at a migrant camp in northwestern Turkey. “Distraught, demoralized, they no longer know where to go….Their most ardent dream, to live a dignified and peaceful life under the European sky, was shattered.” Jégo’s piece appeared in Le Monde, the most prominent newspaper in France, where millions of Frenchmen can no longer lead “a dignified and peaceful life” because their rulers, without ever consulting them, have set their country on the path to becoming an Islamic dystopia.
On the same day that Jégo’s article appeared, a writer for the Swedish daily Aftonbladet also engaged in a bit of hand-wringing: “Who will take responsibility for these people’s lives and freedoms?” Let’s turn that question around: why is the welfare of everybody from everywhere on the planet the responsibility of Europeans? The Aftonbladet writer called it “absurd” to suggest that “Sweden has no more room” for migrants – this in a nation that’s on the brink of social and economic collapse because of the huge number of Muslim immigrants it’s taken in.
Not to be outdone, Turkey’s deputy foreign minister, Yavuz Selim Kiran, sent out a tweet on Saturday in which he compared Greece’s treatment of “innocent migrants crossing the border” to the incineration of Jews at Auschwitz. Yesterday, Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis was scheduled to meet Angela Merkel in Berlin. Meanwhile Erdogan was headed for Brussels to butt heads with officials of the EU, which disclosed yesterday that it might take in 1,000 to 1,500 children currently living in Greek migrant camps.
Is there any good news here? Just this: while Western European politicians, activists, and commentators keep virtue signaling, the leaders of the Visegrad countries – Czechia, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia – have affirmed their readiness to help Greece guard its borders. On Sunday, Cyprus announced it would pitch in as well. At least one weekend report indicated that the EU, too, is prepared to take action on behalf of Greece; if true, this might mark a turning point. In any event, how appropriate is it people from pretty much the same places whose inhabitants defended Vienna in 1683 are standing with Greece in the year 2020? Somewhere up there, one likes to imagine, John III Sobieski is smiling.

PCA CHURCH HOSTS TRANSGENDER LGBTQ ARTS FESTIVAL

PCA CHURCH HOSTS TRANSGENDER 
LGBTQ ARTS FESTIVAL
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational and research

Memorial Presbyterian Church (PCA) — that is, from the “conservative” denomination, not the completely apostate PCUSA denomination — has been drawing a lot of controversy over the last few years for its promotion of homosexuality and LGBTQ issues. The church originally made the news when it hosted the first Revoice “gay Christian” Conference in 2018.
Subsequently, the pastor of Memorial PCA, Greg Johnson came out of the closet as a homosexual and the denomination did very little to discipline the church and its leaders.
Further making the news, the pastor, appearing on the Cross Politic podcast, told listeners that he was open to holding a pedophile conference at his church and has made it clear that he and his church are all in on the “gay Christianity” movement.
So, unsurprisingly, this same church hosted a transgender LGBTQ arts festival in its chapel — which, according to the venue’s website, is fully supported by the church and its volunteers to showcase the voices and artwork of people they support and believe should be heard.
Artists are gifted storytellers.  Our support of their music, artwork, theatrical expression, or an eclectic combination thereof, brings joy to our Creator and beauty to our city.
So, before anyone just says that the church offers up a venue indiscriminately, they actually support the people they bring in and claim that it “brings joy to our Creator.”
No. No. No. And no.
Parading sodomites around on a church’s altar does not bring joy to our creator — He hates it. But that doesn’t stop this church from doing so anyway as they hosted the Q Collective “Transluminate” arts festival in February.
Transluminate20
According to the event website, “Transluminate is a short-play festival and celebration of transgender, agender, non-binary, genderqueer, and genderfluid artists” which featured several performances including a man “reflecting on the loss of his masculine self” as he “transitions” into a woman, and women injecting themselves with testosterone.
Sure, we can see how that brings joy to our Creator, right?
Other performances include, “A human wants to transform into another species and must decide which kind to choose. They visit different worlds to try their selections with the help of a spaceship,” and “Joe, a transgender man, and Shawna, a transgender woman, are married, and Joe is carrying their child…” The event website even comes with a warning,
Content Warning: Plays may contain adult language and frank sexual situations
Why is this church not booted from the PCA?

EXCERPTS:
"The gay agenda is a militant crusade — almost Mafia-like — that has the conservative Church so far in its grips that it pretty much has no other option but to cave from every angle. We see Christian adoption agencies giving in to progressives and handing children over to sodomite couples and in some places, parents losing all parental rights over their children’s sexually deviant escapades. And in conservative circles, subversive gay ideology is practically vanquishing biblical orthopraxy at its core."
"This can’t be more true than with the homosexual propaganda coming out of organizations such as Living Out and, to a deeper degree, Revoice — the gay Christian conference being held and hosted at Presbyterian (PCA) churches."

TEXAS LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR CHALLENGES "BETO" O'ROURKE TO TAKE HIS AR-15 FIREARM

Try and Take My AR-15 and 

‘See How That Goes’

TEXAS LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR CHALLENGES "BETO" O'ROURKE TO TAKE HIS AR-15 FIREARM 
BY WARREN MASS

The day after former Vice President Joe Biden said that Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke will “be the one who leads” his gun control campaign, Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick responded by challenging O’Rourke, a former U.S. representative who lost his race for a U.S. Senate seat against incumbent Ted Cruz (R-Texas) in 2018, to come to his house and take his AR-15.
On March 4, Patrick told Fox News journalist Shannon Bream, “Joe Biden says a lot of dopey things, you have a whole list of them and play them a lot. The dumbest thing he has said is he’s going to put Beto O’Rourke in charge of getting our guns. I’m telling you, that just added two or three points to President Trump’s victory in November if it’s the ‘Biden and Beto Show.’”
Patrick extended an invitation to O’Rourke to begin his confiscation efforts at his house, saying: “[Beto] said he was coming to take our AR-15s. I have one, I want to invite him to my house first and see how that goes.” 
Patrick also stated, “When Biden surrounds himself with people like Beto O'Rourke, he’s taken on a real goofball, a guy who's a real lightweight and he proved it in this race.”
The New American reported last September that during a September 12 Democratic presidential debate, O’Rourke made an outrageous admission: “Hell yes, we’re going to take your AR-15, your AK-47.”
As we observed at the time,
For years, gun-control advocates have assured Americans that it is not their intention to confiscate the weapons held lawfully by United States citizens. But now, the mask is coming off, as O’Rourke and the rest of his Democratic presidential hopefuls apparently believe gun confiscation has now become popular. Former Vice President Joe Biden said, “Over 90 percent of the American people think we have to get assault weapons off the street — period. And we have to get buy-backs and get them out of their basements.” Times have changed, Biden argued, and now public opinion favors gun control.
The “Biden and Beto Show,” as Patrick calls it, proves to be a perfect match on the issue of gun control. In an article in February, we quoted a startling statement Biden made on the campus of The College of Charleston in South Carolina on February 24: “I’ve got news for you gun manufacturers. I’m coming for you and I’m going to take you down.”
Breitbart reported that Biden made his statement targeting gun manufacturers after mentioning the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act passed in 2005. That law is designed to shield gun manufacturers from lawsuits in cases where the guns used in crimes were legally manufactured and legally sold.
Biden has constantly criticized that law while campaigning, saying in New Hampshire that it was a “mistake” to give “gun manufacturers … a loophole that does not allow them to be sued for the carnage they are creating.”
“The first thing I’m going to do as president is work to get rid of that, and it’s going to be hard,” he added.

ELEVATION CHURCH IS FROM HELL

ELEVATION CHURCH IS FROM HELL
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational and research

Elevation Church is one of the most subversive and dangerous pseudo-Christian movements in the world. Following in the footsteps of Hillsong, Steven Furtick, the lead pastor, has built an empire that has grown tremendously with now over 20 campuses and even internationally with campuses in Toronto.
Steven Furtick says stupid things all the time. Steven Furtick once asserted that Jesus broke the law — that is, committed sin — in order to save people. The prosperity gospel-preaching huckster out of Elevation Church in Charlotte, NC is best known for reading himself into Scripture and making it all about him. In short, he’s a narcissist.
One of the reasons Elevation Church is so subversive is that on paper — or in this case, on website — the Church holds to a seemingly orthodox statement of faith. That is, the church affirms the essential doctrines according to their “official” beliefs. This is not surprising since Steven Furtick and Elevation Church have Southern Baptist roots — Furtick knows what these essential doctrines are. However, Steven Furtick preaches and practices something completely different.
The prosperity gospel is arguably the second-most nefarious and subversive false gospel plaguing the American Church today, right behind the social justice gospel. The prosperity gospel teaches that God is, in a sense, a genie in a bottle and by having enough faith, you can get what you want from him — material gain.
The prosperity gospel in America is largely associated with celebrity hucksters like Kenneth Copeland, Joel Osteen, T.D. Jakes, and others, but the false gospel has plagued the more conservative sects as well. And while the prosperity gospel is stereotypically associated with health and wealth, the same principle applies to a multitude of selfish desires.
The prosperity gospel can range from praying for things like a new car, new house … a new private jet … to more seemingly appropriate things such as a spouse, the ability to have children, or a college degree. The principle doesn’t limit its application to the thing being desired, rather it is the motivation behind the desire that counts.
Further, the prosperity gospel isn’t limited only to seed-faith or seed-sowing which is typically associated with giving money to a preacher or ministry in exchange for promises of health and wealth. The prosperity gospel boils down selfish gain and is rooted in greed. More often than not, the prosperity gospel is simply praying for something that you want from a carnal standpoint as opposed to praying God’s will.
Steven Furtick has been completely given over to the prosperity gospel. How often does Furtick preach about the holiness of God and the detrimental state of man before him? How often does he preach about sin? How often does he preach about shed blood of Jesus being the only hope for redemption and reconciliation to God the Father?
If ever, it’s few and far between. Rather, he’s preaching about Goliath having your sword — a twisting of the Scriptures. He’s preaching the heresy of Sabellian modalism — that the Trinity “changes forms” rather than existing co-eternally — as their website statement of faith declares. He’s praising sex-traffickers and glad-handing the rank heretic, T.D. Jakes with cold, hard cash. And he’s made it clear that sound doctrine is a thing that really doesn’t matter in his church — because it’s all about self-motivation and the “experience,” not Jesus Christ.
Steven Furtick has built an empire around a false gospel and from that has emerged a false Jesus. His church steers people away from the living God and resurrected Jesus Christ and lures them into their movement of self-idolatry. Elevation Church is not of God, it is a Synagogue of Satan. Elevation Church is from the pits of Hell.

SBC PRESIDENT PARTNERS WITH NANCY PELOSI'S RADICAL ANTI-SEMITIC ISLAMIC EXTREMIST TO PROMOTE MUSLIM-CHRISTIAN UNITY

SBC PRESIDENT PARTNERS WITH 
NANCY PELOSI'S RADICAL ANTI-SEMITIC ISLAMIC EXTREMIST TO PROMOTE 
MUSLIM-CHRISTIAN UNITY  
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational and research

J.D. Greear has been a completely different kind of president than any other Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) president in history. Greear’s political and theological progressive bent can be compared to that of the current Pope of the Roman Catholic Church who has been the face of the liberal shift in conservative religious circles.
Greear has ushered in a new era for the denomination with his liberal rhetoric — from calling on Christians to stand up for LGBTQ rights to now calling on Christians to stand up for Islamic rights — he has helped move the denomination from a solid, biblical God-honoring foundation to one that defies the mission of the Church.
Last week, Greear met with Omar Sulieman, a radical Islamic leftist extremist who has been denounced by conservatives across the globe for his anti-semitic views and rhetoric. Last year, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi invited him to give the opening prayer which was deemed a “terribly bad call” by Republicans. Sulieman has repeatedly called for the Third Intifada, an uprising of Palestinians against Israel and has cursed Zionists as the “enemies of God,” compared “apartheid Israel” to the “Nazis,” claimed that Gaza was enduring “a Holocaust,” denounced the “Israeli regime” as “terrorist,” and compared the Israeli army to the Taliban.
Sulieman is clearly and without a doubt a radical Islamic extremist who hates every Judeo-Christian, and has mesmerized undiscerning and unintelligent Christian leaders such as Greear and Matt Chandler.
During the meeting which was sponsored by the Veritas Forum and Neighborly Faith — ecumenical organizations that serve the purpose of seeking common ground between Christianity and paganism — and hosted at NC State, Greear and Sulieman discussed issues such as mutual suspicion between Christians and Muslims. It was clear that Greear is highly uneducated on Islam and especially the history of Sulieman himself.
During the meeting, Greear insisted that Christians should be fighting for the rights of Islamics to spread their false religion because, according to Greear, that’s what the parable of the Good Samaritan was about and that’s what Jesus “would do.”
Greear stands in opposition to the Southern Baptist Convention’s 2016 resolution that supports the right of Israel to exist as a sovereign nation and rejects any calls or advances to boycott the nation. By partnering with Sulieman, Greear gives tacit approval to Sulieman who supports The Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel.
Bottom line, Greear shows his ineptness as a leader by sitting on stage, listening to this anti-Islamic, anti-American, anti-Semitic, anti-Christian extremist lie and say he wishes for peace and buying into it indiscriminately all while throwing Christians who reject the Islamic radicalization of the West under the bus. Sulieman does not wish for peace, he wishes for the destruction of Israel, the destruction of American Western civilization, and the destruction of Christianity.
And he’s willing to lie to do it — and J.D. Greear is helping him.

David Uth was elected as SBC Pastors’ Conference President to the sound of thunderous applause. Nominated by leftward-drifting former SBC president James Merritt, father of prominent homosexual journalist Jonathan Merritt, Uth had already been on the radar of Pulpit & Pen for several years.
We first noted Uth’s penchant for inviting troublesome speakers to fill the pulpit when he had Seventh Day Adventist cultist Ben Carson to speak at his church, FBC Orlando, in June of 2014. After Ben Carson was invited – and then disinvited – to speak at the 2015 SBC meeting, we reported that it was David Uth who rebuked the Convention for being closed-minded. In June of 2016 we reported that David Uth invited pro-homosexual clergy to speak at his church after the Pulse nightclub shooting, and stood by applauding when a preacher said that homosexuals were the chief cornerstone of the church. His church then laid “hands of anointing” on homosexuals present, praying God to bless their lifestyle, a controversy that went on for weeks and ended with David Uth praying that God would take the lives of discerning Christians because they complain so much. We then reported the foolishness of Uth being chosen as the 2020 SBC Pastor’s Conference President in light of his history of inviting cultists and pro-gay preachers to speak from his pulpit (in a post with 37.4 thousand Facebook shares, it had wide circulation).
In a perfectly predictable fashion (in fact, we predicted it), Uth went on to stack the deck of the Pastors’ Conference with heterodox preachers including female pastors, pastors with females on their church’s pastoral staff, a crazy charismatic with a past of controversies (Jim Cymbala), and a man whose church engages in gimmickry that ranges from Storm Trooper choreographed dance to a Game of Thrones sermon series.
An orthodox speaker, let alone a Southern Baptist, could hardly be found in the lineup at all.
James Merrit, who foolishly nominated Uth, showed anger toward discerning Christians upset at the speaking lineup.The “poison pen” referred to by Merritt isn’t the writing of his flamingly homosexual son who writes leftist dribble regularly dripping with journalistic faggery, but discerning believers with polemics blogs. He thinks discernment is ruining the SBC and not his trash nomination for SBC Pastor’s Conference President.
In light of public outrage, the Executive Committee of the SBC has sandbagged the conference space until Uth changes the lineup to conform with Southern Baptist beliefs.
The real story here is that the Body of Christ has suffered because a large portion of SBC leadership has a visceral hatred for Christians gifted with spiritual discernment who warned and warned them about David Uth.
For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office: So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another. Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us (Romans 12:4-6).
The Evangelical Intelligentsia has routinely ignored the pleas by an important segment of the Christian church…discerners. We have been treated like second-class citizens in the Kingdom of God, routinely mocked, ridiculed, maligned, marginalized, and attacked as though unworthy of being members in Jesus’ Body.
This giant mess of a problem caused by Uth’s speaker lineup was 100% avoidable and 100% predictable – if only SBC leaders had listened to discernment ministries like Pulpit & Pen and Justin Peters (who wrote a detailed series on the problems with David Uth). Instead, they chose to “kick against the pricks,” insisting on doing things with no regard for the opinion of people gifted with the ability to discern truth from error.
In fact, if truth be told, SBC leaders often do things, coalesce with people, and make decisions based upon what is likely to make discernment ministries upset (like hiring Karen Swallow Prior at Southeastern Seminary), almost as though they get a cheap thrill from it.
Each and every single time the Evangelical Intelligentsia chooses to ignore discernment ministries they suffer for it. That’s because they despise important members in the Body of Christ and detest wise counsel.
This latest controversy is caused by nothing but the arrogance of those who ignore polemics.
