Welcome once again to the conversations that matter

podcast. My name is John Harris.

We are going to have a hopefully short podcast.

We'll find out by the end of it responding to some comments.

JD Greer, the president of the Senate Baptist Convention

earlier this week that was kind of controversial. He basically made a separation between

those in the Southern Baptist Convention who want a gospel culture of inclusion and

diversity because that's what the gospel's all about versus Pharisees terrorists and racist yes these are his words not mine I'm going to show you some clips later on I don't know if I don't think I included the terrorist one but the other ones are in there and and we're going to examine this a little bit, kind of what he's getting at, what, you know, the thing about J.D. Greer that I find dangerous is he oftentimes will use very biblical language and he'll talk about something, for instance, the nature of a Pharisee and it can be very true

but then he will get you to go along with the political agenda he has by kind of assigning that,

let's say in the case of a Pharisee that description to the wrong party.

So conservatives in the SBC who are concerned about critical race theory and think

that it's smuggling in some very bad contradictory to the Bible assumptions etc

those people are the Pharisees so it's that kind of thing that ends up

Ruining a lot of what he says and I'm going to go through point by point and show you kind of what he's doing and why it doesn't work.

But a few announcements first and thank you by the way.

To all those who support me, pray for me to the patrons out there

You make this possible and I'm do I'm upping it a lot this year so not everyone can see that yet

But there's a lot of things I got my, a lot of pots I got my hands in.

And I'm excited about a bunch of them and I'm going to share some of them with you right now.

One of them is coming up, we have a conference I'm part of called the State of our Disunion by the Truth Exchange and

the topic is social justice. It's going to drop in April. I uploaded the conference video

yesterday and if you are a patron if you go to patreon.com and your partner with me there,
