Heresy, Apostasy and Hypocrisy
11th May 2019
The Other McCain speaks some inconvenient truth.
Clearly it is wrong to call yourself a Christian and advocate teachings that directly contradict the Bible. It’s heresy, and would not have been tolerated by previous generations of Christians, but nowadays anything believed by liberals will find some “Christian” advocates, who will be showered with praise (and book contracts, etc.) by all those institutions that promote liberalism. So if you want to advocate abortion, homosexuality and socialism, and claim to do this as a “Christian,” you’ll be applauded for doing so by, e.g., the New York Times and CNN.
Fortunately this problem is much smaller in the Orthodox Church, although it still can be found in certain circles.
