Summary
In this episode of Theology Applied, Pastor Joel Webbon and Megan Basham from Daily Wire play a little game. In this game, Pastor Joel mentions a well known leader in Big Eva by name, and then Megan and Joel take turns placing that individual in one of three categories:
1) Progressivism
2) Pietism
3) Perseverance
Here’s the list of names we cover in this episode:
1) Timothy Keller
2) John Piper
3) Gavin Ortlund
4) Voddie Baucham
5) Matt Chandler
6) Michael Horton
7) Russell Moore
8) John MacArthur
9) R.C. Sproul
10) Doug Wilson
The “old” fault lines of Calvinism vs. Arminianism, Cessationism vs. Continuationism, and Baptist vs. Presbyterian are still important, but the “new” fault lines have quickly moved to the center of the debate. What are these “new” fault lines? Oh, you know. Things like Woke vs. Not Woke, Social Justice vs. Biblical Justice, Civil Tyranny vs. Personal Liberty, Socialism vs. Capitalism, Globalism vs. Nationalism, etc. You’re definitely not going to want to miss this episode!

| 0:00.0 | Hey guys, real quick, before we get started, I have a small request. If you've been blessed by our |
| 0:04.5 | content and you like this show, would you take just a brief moment and leave us a five-star review? |
| 0:09.7 | This is quite possibly the most effective thing that you can do to ensure that this content |
| 0:14.6 | gets out to as many people as possible. Thanks. All right, welcome to another episode of Theology |
| 0:20.0 | Applied. I am your host, Pastor Joel Webin |
| 0:21.8 | with Right Response Ministries. And in this episode, I am privileged to have, once again, for the |
| 0:26.6 | second time now, Megan Basham from the Daily Wire. All right, let me frame up the episode because this is a doozy. |
| 0:33.4 | In my opinion, is one of the most favorite things that I've done with a guest on this show Theology Applied. |
| 0:39.3 | Here's what I wrote. |
| 0:40.6 | The old fault lines of Calvinism versus Armenianism or cessationism versus continuationism or Baptist versus Presbyterians, these things still matter. |
| 0:50.2 | But the new fault lines, using the language of Vodibachum, the new fault lines have quickly moved to the center of debate. |
| 0:59.0 | What are these new fault lines? You know. Things like woke versus not woke. COVID tyranny versus personal liberty. |
| 1:07.2 | Socialism versus capitalism versus globalism versus nationalism. |
| 1:11.8 | Now, what we're starting to see in my assessment, when it comes to these new fault lines, |
| 1:17.1 | we're starting to see that there are basically only three camps. |
| 1:20.7 | There are pietists who don't want to be involved in the culture at all. |
| 1:24.8 | There are progressives who are very involved in these cultural and political |
| 1:30.4 | matters, but they mirror the Democrat platform. They're neo-Marxist, their leftist. And there are, |
| 1:38.6 | lastly, trying to have three P's for alliteration here. There are pietists, progressives, and those who persevere, |
| 1:47.3 | those who are faithful. They're involved in the culture, but not as neo-Marxist, but those who |
| 1:54.2 | are biblically conservative and faithful. So what we do in this episode is we take a list of |
