Why I disagree with aborted foetus shock tactics
One of the thigs that kept coming up during recent controversy about abortion campaigns was the way that images of foetuses was used. CBR UK/Brephos made a big thing of how Christians or members of the public should not be offended by an image of a living foetus in the womb as displayed at Keswick. What they were quieter about was that their normal strategy is to have a dual display with the…
"Hey cowardly backsliders ... Fancy a chat?"
One of the concerns I have with current Evangelical discourse as exemplified by the Keswick/Brephos thing is that like my headline it leans into an approach where big accusations are made that get personal and go to character and motives. Any pushback results in a “we would love to talk more response. In that context, have a listen to David Robertson, aka “The Wee Flea” from about ten minutes in…
Megan Masham has recently written a book called “Shepherds for Sale: How Evangelical Leaders traded the truth for a leftist agenda” I was recently asked whether I thought that this was true about the UK Evangelical church too. Here’s the answer I gave. If you want to read Megan’s book, it is available from Amazon. Please note that I should have said “kindle” rather than the platform I do mention!
Cultural Mandate or Great Commission?
One of the things you may have heard talked about in the Brephos podcast I have been engaging with was “the cultural mandate.” This was used as a primary reason for why we should be in the business of social justice and specifically campaigning against abortion using the strategy and tactics of CBR UK and similar groups. What is meant by the Cultural Mandate? Well, it’s a reference to Genesis…
Brephos, Keswick, Abortion, Social justice and the Bible
This is part two of my look at Brephos’ response to my friends on the Building Jerusalem podcast. In fact, I’m going to limit my response here to one segment of the podcast. The full episode is over 1 hour long, despite saying that they won’t use this podcast to defend themselves again in relation to the Keswick Convention they in fact spend the first twenty minutes doing just that. The next…
Brephos Abortion,, Keswick, Building Jerusalem, Social Justice and good faith conversations
Well, this little saga seems to be rumbling on. My friends Steve Kneale and Stephen Watkinson run a podcast called Building Jerusalem. They recently tackled questions around the Brephos/Keswick Convention dispute. Brephos, Keswick & Christian Ministries Brephos have now responded. First, they posted a short podcast encouraging their supporters to go and listen to the podcast. However, they…
Brephos postscript: truth, moral certainty and listening
Back in August, I responded to a little spat that developed between the Keswick Convention and CBR-UK’s church focused project Brephos. To all intents and purpose, it should perhaps have been a minor deal. Brephos may feel hard done by that Keswick don’t have space for them in their exhibition but that’s the Convention’s right. It doesn’t mean Keswick are soft or liberal on abortion, it…
The General Election and more accusations of cowardice and compromise
There are times when the church will get things completely wrong and needs to be challenged, rebuked, called to repentance. This can apply to the whole of God’s church, a specific tribe/segment, network or denomination, a local church or individual Christians. Those responsible for proclaiming God’s Word need to be ready to do this from time to time. However, there can be a risk that we become…
