“West states that “as the biblical understanding of same-sex relationships became more controversial, [Tim] Keller seemed to avoid talking about the topic as much as possible. When he did discuss the issue . . . [he] could become halting, hesitant, and seemingly embarrassed by the biblical view.” In essence, these Christians have implied that they are better at loving others than God’s Word is; how they handle the approach to the gospel is apparently better than how Romans does…”
(Joshua Parcha – Christ Over All) Although reading classic works on political theology can be helpful in addressing problems of modern Christianity, these classics should also be read in conjunction with contemporary books that address contemporary problems. One of the contemporary issues vexing modern Christianity is that many of its institutional leaders have marred orthodox Christianity by ingratiating themselves with cultural and political elites who reject orthodox Christianity. Helping us understand and address this problem is John G. West’s book Stockholm Syndrome Christianity (2025), which is premised on the analogy of wolves among a flock of sheep….
Instead of getting rid of the wolves, some sheep befriend and ingratiate themselves to these wolves until these favored sheep start getting annoyed at other sheep who want to get rid of the wolves!
As absurd as this sheep-wolves flock story is, this is precisely the image West presents in Stockholm Syndrome Christianity to describe the state of modern Christianity. The wolves are the “anti-Christian secular culture, and the sheep represent Christians who have embraced the assumptions of that culture.” The embrace is so complete that the sheep “are grateful and think the [wolves are] doing something good”; the sheep obstinately believe they are “being loving and kind” by assisting the wolves.

CRN has compiled a list of false teachers and several other professing Christians we’ve warned you about over the years. The list also contains those we must keep an eye on plus movements, organizations and “frauds, phonies and money-grubbing religious quacks” to mark and avoid as per Romans 16:17-18 such as Tim Keller, Andy Stanley and Francis Collins.
“In other developing news, I broke out in hives after praising the New York Times.”
6 I will keep my righteousness, and will not forsake it: mine heart shall not reprove me of my days.
7 Mine enemy shall be as the wicked, and he that riseth against me, as the unrighteous.
8 For what hope hath the hypocrite when he hath heaped up riches, if God take away his soul?
9 Will God hear his cry, when trouble cometh upon him?
10 Will he set his delight on the Almighty? will he call upon God at all times? Job 27:6-10 (1599 Geneva Bible)

“My obsession is strengthening the lives of all honest Americans. I believe Donald Trump, whether you like his style or not, is trying to do that. Just his record overseas proves my point. Hostages released, wars averted, favorable trade deals to bolster the U.S. economy.”
“Mirahmadi warns that we’re witnessing a historic sea change. The last election cycle “cemented” the ascendancy of Islamists in politics, she says. Two-hundred-eighty Muslims now occupy offices across all U.S. governmental levels, with six being mayors…neighboring Hamtramck, Michigan, recently became the first American city with an entirely Muslim government.”
“How ungodly is this, that we, as a nation, are not in the streets livid over this? Where is the righteous fury that once toppled idols and purged the land? This is child abuse cloaked in compassion, a direct assault on the divine ordinance.”
“The Radical Left Lunatics circling Biden around the beautiful Resolute Desk in the Oval Office took the Presidency away from him. I am hereby cancelling all Executive Orders, and anything else that was not directly signed by Crooked Joe Biden, because the people who operated the Autopen did so illegally. Joe Biden was not involved in the Autopen process and, if he says he was, he will be brought up on charges of perjury. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”
“Ideology—not science, not medicine, not compassion—is now the ruling authority over children’s bodies. The state has decided that children belong to it.”
“Thanks be to God for his inexpressible gift” (
“Skandalakis made Trump and his co-defendants for “record restriction,” which is basically an expungement of the arrest record.”
“Since Shapiro’s peak, he has lost an estimated 40000 subs. Tucker Carlson, the recipient of Shapiro’s ire, on September 19 had 4.58 million subs and currently sits just over 5 million.”
(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) FBI Director Kash Patel revealed new details about Thomas Matthew Crooks’s mindset during his failed assassination attempt on President Donald Trump in Butler, Pa., last year. In an interview with investigative journalist Catherine Herridge on “Straight to the Point” from the Los Angeles Times Media Group, Patel described how Crooks acted from a deep hostility toward the U.S. government and the two-party system.
“Moore’s behavior brought me to mind again of two critical items we should use when assessing whether a teacher who claims Jesus and teaches the Bible is false or not. These two items flow into each other.”
“We are very politically and ideologically a diverse group. Most of the authors are liberals, Democrats. They wouldn’t vote for Trump if he forced them to. This is a bipartisan initiative.”
(Breitbart) Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) admitted on Sunday that to her knowledge she was “not aware” that President Donald Trump has issued an illegal order to U.S. Military service members.
“Our work can feel lonely, like we’re among the few (or perhaps the only) seeing concerns within the evangelical world. It’s hard to watch people who went to Bible college with us, people who we grew up with in church, or even close friends, reject historic Christianity or choose a lesser gospel. It grieves us. Like Elijah, we may complain to God that we’re the only ones left.”
(Douglas Andrews – The Patriot Post) Where are the arrests? Where are the show trials? Where’s the congressional dog and pony show? I mean, isn’t this coordinated effort to weaken our commander-in-chief and eat away at the cohesion within our military and our intelligence services an act of insurrection or — dare we say it? — treason?
“The resolution…asserts that socialism has led to famine and mass murder under the Cuban Castro regime, the Chinese rule of Mao Zedong, the ongoing Venezuelan regime of Nicolás Maduro and others.”
“Some may argue that evangelical doctrine is stable, given that it is rooted in the Solas of the Reformation. This is true, but the emphasis of the past fifty years has been on outward aesthetics and novel ways to do church. More traditional forms of Protestantism, including fundamentalism, that have kept their liturgies and doctrine, are well positioned to benefit from renewed interest in older forms of religion.”
