FLASHBACK FROM 2023
(The Dissenter) Last Friday, author and speaker Rosaria Butterfield spoke at the convocation for Liberty University. Rosaria Butterfield is a former tenured professor of English and women’s studies at Syracuse University who became a Christian in 1999. Her conversion story, which includes leaving a lesbian lifestyle, is detailed in her memoir, “The Secret Thoughts of an Unlikely Convert.”
After coming to Christ, Butterfield quickly began a career in Evangelicalism where she would speak about her conversion story. However, she quickly became caught up in the wrong crowd at outlets like The Gospel Coalition and a lot of her teachings she has even admitted herself, were false teachings….
In recent years, Butterfield has openly and publicly repented of teaching several false teachings, including the notion that homosexual desires, in and of themselves, are not sinful unless you act out physically on them.
In short, Butterfield has taken a sharp turn toward biblical orthodoxy on the subject of sexuality and gender and has urged others who continue to teach these false teachings to follow her lead in repentance. Yet, during her speech at Liberty University, she acknowledged that many are obstinate in and continue to teach certain “lies” and “heresy.” Of these, she named three entities: Preston Sprinkle, Revoice, and CRU (formerly Campus Crusade).
At The Dissenter, our own scrutiny has unmasked the troubling agendas of figures like Preston Sprinkle and organizations such as Campus Crusade (CRU) and Revoice, all of whom are guilty of propagating doctrines that blatantly contradict biblical truths about LGBTQ issues.
Preston Sprinkle has emerged as a chief architect in the erosion of biblical integrity regarding sexuality. As an original advisory board member of Revoice, he has been at the forefront of distorting the Christian view on homosexuality, pushing a narrative that defies the clear teachings of Scripture. Sprinkle, through his Center for Faith, Sexuality, & Gender, peddles the dangerous notion of ‘Side B’ gay Christianity, equating open homosexual living with faithful Christian practice. His activism, including hosting panels with homosexuals and “transgender” people who openly and publicly live in sin while affirming them as “Christians,” is a direct assault on the biblical understanding of sexuality and Christian living.
