(A. Castellito – Pulpit & Pen News) “Racial reconciliation will be an act of repentance and resistance in the Trump era.” – Jim Wallis
The latest example of the misguided ideological pursuits of the PCA (Presbyterian Church of America) was recently revealed with the release of a fairly in-depth report on racial reconciliation. The biblical justification for such pursuits is flimsy to say the least, but that didn’t prevent the PCA from identifying and promoting the idea of racial reconciliation as a point of evangelical emphasis, outreach and proclamation.
Social justice advocate and political leftist, Jim Wallis has publicly called for battle lines to be drawn as he deems the church fertile ground for the war on racism. In his radical mind, the time is ripe for a ‘racial reconciliation.’
A new law founded on the gospel of white privilege and racial reconciliation is being handed down by this premier theologian of liberation. He has not changed; in fact, Wallis continues to double down. Are we so deceived that we’d be willing to surrender the higher ground?
Jim Wallis is essentially re-prioritizing the mission and priorities of not only the church but society at large. A Marxist political agenda surely lies right underneath the surface of this type of rhetoric and denominations like the PCA are swiftly buying in.
