Summary

The episode opens with Romans 9:1–5 and argues that Satan undermines the church through persecution, doctrinal compromise, and subtle tactics like disqualification and new “heresies.” The hosts recount Presbyterian denominational history leading to the PCA’s formation in 1973 and contrast it with the PCUSA’s decline after affirming women’s ordination and homosexual unions. They then discuss the PCA’s ad interim report on Christian nationalism, reading its pastoral letter and selected “affirmations and denials” on civic engagement, speech, antisemitism/race realism/kinism, ordered loves, ethnicity, and men and women. The hosts condemn the document as intentionally ambiguous, a straw man used to target figures like Joel Webbon, criticize its stance on women in civic leadership as contrary to Calvin and Knox, warn it could be used in ordination processes, urge leaving compromised denominations, and promote sponsors, donations, and an upcoming part two. *MINISTRY SPONSORS:* *Genesis Gold Group* Faith-Based Gold IRA: Genesis Gold Group helps Christians protect their retirement with physical precious metals aligned with scriptural stewardship principles. https://www.RightResponseBibleGold.com *Backwards Planning Financial* Want to build a financial legacy for your family with a plan that starts at the end goal?
