It was only a week ago that we recounted how David Platt was attending a conference with a bunch of very theologically and morally bad speakers, and that, to don ourselves in our prophetic garb and recall our words of wisdom ‘ with his trajectory, we see many more of these and other conferences like it in his future.“
We were not wrong.
Reformation Charlotte has revealed that Platt will also be attending the new Passion conference, taking place in early 2022.
Naturally, he’s joining Christine Caine, the prosperity-gospel preaching, ‘little-god theology” believing lady who routinely prophecies ‘thus sayeth the lord’ with messages from God directly and who fully promotes egalitarianism and Social Justice warrioring by founding a network designed to encourage women to become pastors and church leaders.
Also there will be Jackie Hill Perry, the resident gaytheist fresh from saying that all white people are Racists, that White People Only Care about Black Folk in the Womb , and who was recently told by the Lord “God told me ‘Don’t Even Worry About Being Straight’. She continues to serve as one of the worst authorities on the theology of same-sex, giving in interview after interview the sort of advice that denies the power of the gospel while relegating sodomy as the one sin Christ cannot sanctify.
Reformation Charlotte explains that “Loui Giglio himself will be there as he is the founder and host of the conference. Giglio is a proponent of a popular heresy among charismatic false teachers known as little-god theology–the belief that we as humans carry within us the potential to become God, or divine, like God. This is not only a heresy found among charismatics, however, but it is also the underlying teaching of Mormonism–that our future as believers are to partake in the divinity of God and become gods ourselves.”
Another one to watch for is Jennie Allen. She’s a “Bible teacher, author, and the founder and visionary of IF:Gathering,” an annual conference for women, along with hosting the Made for This podcast. Naturally, she frequently hosts bad bible teachers and has some troubling theology, documented by Michelle Lesley here.
Lest you think Platt is the odd man out from that serving of scallywags, the past President of the International Missions Board has drifted in other ways, from saying that he is part of the problem in promulgating racial injustice on account of his white skin, or telling congregants who “can’t live” with the fact that their church family may be members of the Democratic party, who may vote for them, campaign for them, fundraise for them, and even run for office under their banner, that they should leave the church. Oh, and his co-pastor was caught explaining how it’s difficult for him not to ‘torch all white people’.
The drift and compromise is tragic, and it’s only going to get worse.
