hello friends. My name is Greg. I’m a pastor and today I’m reacting to woke religion videos that I found on Tiktok. If you need proof that we live in a fallen fallen world, you’ve come to the right place. These videos are truly insane. So insane that I had a hard time deciding if these videos needed to be confronted with the Word of God or cast into the fires of Mordor to the fire. Since I only have the ability to do one of these, I went with the former the last tic toc at the end of this video is particularly disturbing. I can’t believe I’m showing you these. Let’s get into it.

These are the cool sexual ethics is clear that sex should be between a man and his wife. Anything outside of that is seen as interpreted by who would you mean? I mean, whose standard we’re going to use should we go back to Clement of Alexandria second century okay to sound good. He believed that to have sex for any other reason than to procreate was a sense so even married couples should not have sex for pleasure. When does not use him? Some of the Augustine then okay, what did he say? Well, according to him men took wise for the gratification of pleasure made their wives out to be mistresses. He to believe sex was only for procreation and never for pleasure. Well, this was the position of the early church sex was for procreation purposes only. That’s not what the Church says neck. I thought God was the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. Isn’t that what you always tell me when it comes to progressive ideas? Oh, unless those progressive ideas benefit you, huh?

First off, love the character portrayed here, the hat, the voice the commitment. Well done, ma’am. Well done. I’m going to give your performance and impressive 10 out of 10. Your argument though, zero out of 10. The main error here is that this woman assumes that conservative churches rest their standard of interpretation on figures from church history. Now, don’t get me wrong, as influential as figures from church history are like Clements and Augustine, it’s important to remember that they are not the ruling authority for biblical interpretation. God’s word is this is why the Reformers heralded scripture alone. This doesn’t mean that other people’s ideas and reflections on Scripture aren’t important. We’re certainly grateful for the 1000s of years of Christian reflection that we’ve had on Scripture. However, scripture alone does mean that Christians are to weigh and subject every idea to the Word of God, our ultimate authority, and what does our ultimate authority teach us about the enjoyment of sex? Well, there’s good news for you today. Song of Songs clearly teaches that humanity is actually to find pleasure in sex within a one man and one woman marriage. Moreover, Proverbs 518 through 19 writes, let your fountain be blessed and rejoice in the wife of your youth, a lovely, dear, a graceful doe, let her breasts fill you at all times with delight, be intoxicated, always. In her love. These clear and unchanging truths of scripture are the primary authority for the church, not Clement, not Augustine, not any other man. Also, if you’re going to pull from examples from church history, I’d like to pull an example I want to remind you of Arias, a heretic in the third and fourth century who twisted God’s word to distort the true identity of Christ. And it looks like history is still repeating itself today. God is the same yesterday, today and forever. And today, God is still working through his people, the church to confront air with the truth that is found in his word alone. Oh, the

word homosexual was never in the Bible. It wasn’t in the Bible till 1946 and the word it replaced translates to pedophile

wonder why they can’t it must be a mystery. Are we about to enter into a battle of the bands? You bet we are. Oh, the Bible was written in Hebrew and rainy so your comments on an English word are pretty weak. Just read your Bible from beginning to end and see Matthew mill unions are what God commands ah, brings me back to my musical theater days. Now let’s briefly address the Greek word in question. According to this woman, our Senate koi tie should be taken to mean pedophilia, not homosexuality. However, this position fails to adequately analyze the language At our center koi tie is a distinctly Christian word that is not really found in Greek literature outside of the Bible except for maybe one known example from the second or fourth century. It is a unique compound word that blends the two words, mail and bed. It was likely coined by Paul. So where did Paul pull this term from that he just make it up? Interestingly, the Greek translation of Leviticus 2013 offers the background information needed to understand how the word our sin, a koi tie came into Paul’s vocabulary. To explore this, it’s time to go back to the Greek This is the Greek translation of Leviticus 2013. Notice those two words that are side by side are Sonos, and coin 18. This is where Paul draws his term. Our Senate koi tie this information is vital to being able to properly understand Paul’s use of this word, the literal meaning of Leviticus 2013 translates into ever should have bedded with a male as the marriage bed of a woman and then goes on to prohibit this abominable act. Other translations say, and whoever lives with a man sexually as with a woman, thus, the English word homosexuality is a faithful translation of the term or sin, a koi tie, not pedophilia, also, my song had harmonies, people

comment this to me a surprising amount. And I assume that people are Christians. And they say you are very Christ. Like to me, there is something about the essence of what I do, how I am boldly, myself, but also how I am unconditionally loving, that somehow fulfills the promise of what they think or wish were. Yeah, all of this is very ironic, because the church has been so cruel to people like me. So to be this LGBTQ, and to be seen as Christ like, has a lot of weight to it. I’m glad for the comparison. And yeah, if you’re Christian, you’re welcome here.

So this person is a self professing non binary pastor. I find it interesting seeing how touched they are to be called a Christ like while they simultaneously deny the teachings of Christ, what teachings am I referring to? Well, and Matthew 19 Jesus questions the Pharisees Have you not read that He who created them from the beginning made them male and female now I’m no gender studies major, but it doesn’t get more binary than that. Turns out it’s easy to get called a Christ like when your followers are worshipping a false Christ. Well, there’s only one way to respond. I can’t even with this guy. It’s so hard to engage when they don’t even look at the scriptures. Numbers. Five has nothing to do with abortion, open the passage up and see it for yourself. There is not one single mention of an existing conception, pregnancy or birth. In fact, it’s a beautiful passage about God’s vindication of women who are falsely accused of adultery and how God stands up for them. Apparently, the only Bible this man owns is the blank page translation. Also, there’s no such thing as a safe abortion for the same reason that there’s no such thing as a friendly genocide. These are contradicting terms. As you can see, by my responses to these videos, it never ceases to amaze me how many people want Christianity without Christ, by the way to those in this video, I don’t know if you’ll ever see this, but I’m the producer of an online series called Honest discourse, a unique format that brings people together for respectful and kind conversation. You are welcome in our space that is dedicated to kind, open and unedited dialogue. I’d love to invite you to discuss your perspective with a Christian who holds a differing view and To everyone else. These videos are a sobering reminder of how sinful humanity seeks to distort the God of Scripture and to serve the God of their own making. This is why it is so important to cling to the God of Scripture and not to the God of our imagination. Jesus Christ is not ours to redefine he’s ours to receive through faith alone as he is, may you repent of your idolatry. May you trust in Jesus Christ, the one who lived died and resurrected to redeem us from our sins, and may you worship Christ as He has revealed Himself in Scripture all the days of your life.
