Prominent SBC Pastor ‘Strongly Rebukes’ Anyone Who Says V.P. Kamala Harris ISN’T a Christian

A prominent Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) Pastor has come to the defense of Vice President Kamala Harris, rebuffing suggestions that she is an unsaved pagan that needs Jesus and strongly rebuking anyone claiming that the rabidly pro-abortion, pro-LGBTQ politician isn’t a Christian.

This brouhaha started yesterday when Pastor and Founders Ministries President Tom Ascol released a video where he said at some point, “Kamala Harris is going to hell without Christ.”

Not content to let theologically sound and biblical faith just sit there unpoked and unprodded, Pastor Dwight McKissic, who has been going to and fro in the earth, and walking up and down in it [see Job 1], retorted that the suggestion that Kamala Harris is lost and needs Christ is “sad” and that he “strongly rebukes Ascol” and anyone who agrees with him.

As proof of her salvation and Christian virtue, he points to the fact that she attends Third Baptist Church in San Francisco, a gay-affirming church that teaches Liberation Theology. He also notes that her church is part of the pro-choice, pro-LGBTQ, progressive National Baptist Convention, insisting that their doctrinal statement is “almost identical to the Baptist Faith and Message (BFM)” as evidence for her faith.

I guess that’s all it takes, huh?

There’s a polemical term that Seth Dunn coined, called “Website Orthodoxy.” It is when a nefarious Bible-twister or false teacher has an orthodox statement of faith on their website but ignores it entirely in their body of work, sermons, books, or teachings.

A good example of this was seen in 2016 when Andy Stanley preached a series of messages that attacked (explicitly) the sufficiency of Scripture and (implicitly) the inerrancy of Scripture. This followed up on a series of anti-Bible interviews, lectures, and comments. When challenged widely throughout evangelicalism, Stanley and the staff at NorthPoint church repeatedly pointed people back to the NorthPoint Church website, which purports a high view of Scripture.

The fact that Harris is bearing orchards of bad, putrifying, green-fuzz-growing, rotten fruit is irrelevant in light of her church membership, according to McKissic.

We would suggest that not only is Kamala Harris the Jezebeliest Jezebel that ever Jezebel Ed (particularly after she officiated that lesbian wedding, or after advancing a particularly nauseating abortion bill that turned ground-up babies bodies into beef tartare), but she is a pagan who does not know the Lord, who should have been excommunicated decades ago from her church, and whose “church” is thoroughly apostate itself. At this point there is no evidence that she is saved – certainly there is no fruit to behold, and unless she repents she will die in her sins.

Of course, because McKissic tends to serpentinely move to and fro by squirming around on his belly, he also tweeted mere hours before this, regarding a lesbian Bishop that he previously compared to Jezebel.

Faison claims the lesbian Bishop is saved because “She got the Ghost” [Editor’s note: The reference is to the Holy Ghost ostensibly, but if the sin of homosexuality is present and approvingly practiced, it isn’t the Holy Spirit, the third person of the Godhead.], but Mckissic rightly points out that she’s an unrepentant homosexual and that 1 Corinthians 6:9 says they will not inherit the kingdom of heaven.

If Faison really wanted to convince McKissic, he should have simply pointed out that “Bishop Yvette Flunder is a member of City of Refuge United Church of Christ in Oakland, a UCM church that ascribes to the Apostles Creed, the same doctrinal Statement as the SBC.” That probably would have done it.

In McKissic’s world, however, being an unrepentant lesbian is still a mark of an unbeliever, yet being an avid proponent, supporter, and marrier of unrepentant lesbians like Kamala Harris is not.

I suppose it’s the same way that being a proud member of the Ku Klux Klan is still a mark of an unbeliever, but being a financial supporter of them, passing bills in support of lynching up black folk, and fundraising on behalf of them is also…not?

Any time you want to answer that one, Dwight, is fine by us.

Hypocrisy! Prominent Black SBC Pastor Condemns “Jezebel” Comparison. Turns Out He Did it Too

For those wise enough to not follow JD Greear on Twitter, a little update:

Dwight McKissic, a prominent black pastor within the Southern Baptist Convention recently cried “Racist!” and virtue-signaled all over himself after Tom Buck – a fellow SBC shepherd – deftly compared looking up to Kamala Harris simply because she’s a “female leader” to looking up to Jezebel (another evil, prominent female leader). Now McKissic has been exposed for doing the exact same thing in a 2015 article published by the now largely-irrelevant SBC Voices.

McKissic has been on a whiny tear ever since Pastor Tom Buck tweeted this out:

I can’t imagine any truly God-fearing Israelite who would’ve wanted their daughters to view Jezebel as an inspirational role model because she was a woman in power.
— Tom Buck (Five Point Buck) (@TomBuck) January 22, 2021

As is the norm for woke evangelicalism, Buck was immediately set upon by a cabal of race-baiting SBC Karens, who accused him of racism for daring to link the godless character of Kamala Harris to the godless example of Jezebel. Southern Baptist Convention “president” J.D. Greear – now on year three of his 2-year term throwing fellow Southern Baptists under the race-baiting bus – called Pastor Buck out for dealing in racial stereotypes and accused Buck of sinning by making a biblically-obvious comparison.

McKissic called Tom Buck’s tweet ‘un-Christlike’, ‘unjustifiable’, ‘inconsistent’, ‘unwarranted’, ‘disrespectful’ and ‘extremely harmful to the image of Southern Baptists,’ and demanded that he be “disciplined.” McKissic conveniently left out the fact that his extreme leftism, threats to leave the SBC, and his lack of understanding of basic Baptist polity pose a much greater threat to Southern Baptists’ image.

Pastors Steve Swofford & Tom Buck, have referred to Vice President Kamala Harris as Jezebel. Swofford called her “Jezebel Harris.” Calling on President J D Greear, & Jim Richards/SBTC, to repudiate these men un-Christlike statements & to initiate discipline against them, NOW. https://t.co/HrBhSfx9jX

Fortunately, the internet is forever, and has gifted us this article written by the very same pearl-clutching McKissic:

Yes, you read that right. Apparently, Dwight McKissic needs to call on the SBC leadership to discipline Dwight McKissic for his racism in comparing a black college president and his guest to Jezebel. Was he not aware of the history of Jezebel as a racist trope? How could McKissic be so thoughtless and un-Christlike? Is Dave Miller of SBC Voices about to get lit up by the woke evangelical Twitteratti for platforming such a racist as Dwight “calls the kettle black” McKissic?

In his clearly racist article, McKissic expresses righteous outrage that the black president of American Baptist College, Forrest Harris, invited the presiding “bishop” of The Fellowship of Affirming Ministries – a lesbian black woman – to speak at the college, where she proceeded to “preach” and preside over a theological trainwreck.

2015 McKissic quotes Revelation 2:20-21 “Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel…” and explains:

Jezebel taught the congregation at Thyatira that sexually deviant practices, contrary to the Word of God, were permissible. Jesus rebuked the pastor and the church at Thyatira for permitting this false teaching to take place in His Church.
What President Forrest Harris, Bishop Flunder, and “Prophetess” Jezebel have in common is this: They all three affirm deviant sexual behavior and believe that the Bible is an insufficient guide in matters of sexual conduct for today’s believers.

Replace ‘Forrest Harris’ and ‘Bishop Flunder’ with ‘Joe Biden’ and ‘Kamala Harris’ and 2021 McKissic must similarly call 2015 McKissic out for his clear racism.

2015 McKissic, in the soon-to-be-removed article (which is amazingly still available on SBC Voices), further states: “The spirit of Jezebel is alive and well at American Baptist College” and ends with “I close by repeating my thesis: What does [sic] President Forrest Harris, Bishop Flunder, and “Prophetess Jezebel” have in common?”

Answer: the same thing Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and “Prophetess Jezebel” have in common.

Someone needs to alert 2021 McKissic.
