“I speak for men who have drawn their economic insight from Socialism, and their democracy and moral ardor from Jesus himself.”

Walter Rauschenbusch, 1913

“Having become awakened by the fundamental insights of National Socialism, we work steadfastly . . . to [become] a great community in which one serves the other.”

Wolf Meyer-Erlach, Professor of Theology, University of Jena, 1941

“Marxism has much to offer: a set of ‘scientific’ tools for social analysis and projection of strategy. Here many liberation theologians distinguish . . . between Marxism as scientific analysis, with its own autonomy and objectivity, and as a metaphysical system. Christians may accept the first aspect (as a functional tool) while objecting to the second.”

Sojourners Magazine, 1977

“As with the matter of atheistic ideology, the religion-sedative equation is part of the marxist world view, which may be ignored while taking up marxism as a tool of social analysis.”

James Cone, Liberation Theologian, 1980

“Critical race theory and intersectionality alone are insufficient to diagnose and redress the root causes of the social ills that they identify, which result from sin, yet these analytical tools can aid in evaluating a variety of human experiences.”

Southern Baptist Convention Resolutions Committee, 2019

0:00.0	Welcome to the conversations that Matter Podcast. My name is John Harris. This is a quick
0:17.4	episode. I was doing some research earlier today and I came across some information. I just thought I need to share this
0:24.7	Sometimes that happens and I don't share because there's so many things going on but I made the time because I thought this is not only interesting
0:31.8	But I think it's going to be very helpful for Southern Baptists who are going to the convention in Nashville this year in June, I believe, to hopefully kind of scale back the progressive drift.
0:47.5	It's not even really a drift.
0:48.9	It's a full-on run at this point.
0:51.0	I don't know if some of you might have seen there was a video from
0:54.6	2018 that the ERLC put out of Danny Aiken talking about basically it's almost
1:01.0	like textbook standpoint epistemology talking about how because he just,
1:06.1	there's this experience that black people have
1:08.4	that he just doesn't know about.
1:10.2	He's trying to learn and as a result of the little he has learned it's important to just
1:15.3	give up power make sure there's places for black people to lead. Of course NDA
1:20.8	can still the president of southeastern so that's one of the things that I've tried to point out a few times with some of these social justice types. How much are they actually just after power and how much are they committed to the cause. This is what gets progressives angry
1:33.4	when you know they're committed to critical race theory they're committed to
1:37.5	whatever neo-Marxist idea you want to throw out there and then there's people in the halls of
1:42.1	power who say they are but then do their actions actually match their words?
1:45.6	And so I would challenge someone like a Danny Aiken.
1:48.8	Well, why don't you just resign from being the president of South Eastern?
1:52.0	Sounds like you need to give up your power.
1:53.4	That's what you said, you know, needs to happen.
1:55.6	So why aren't you doing it?
