This is a guest post from friend and fellow Abolitionist, Alex Johnson. Although we do not wish to spend too much time responding to this sort of lightweight article, it is good that Alex responded.

(Church) Repent Isn’t a Dirty Word: Part Two
Read PART ONE here. LOCAL CHURCH AUTONOMY Some Reformed Baptists have said that Church Repent is an assault on the autonomy of the local church. This is absurd on its face because a man with a sign and some literature isn't trying to formally govern the particular Baptist church. This dearly held Reformed Baptist view... Continue Reading →
(Church) Repent Isn’t a Dirty Word: Part One
Don’t be fooled by soundbites. I confess that I was once an avid critic of the Church Repent Project. I recall one evening after I watched a video from a producer of “Babies Are Murdered Here”.

Blinding Idolatry: White Lies and Rich Tales (UPDATED)
We’ve all seen this. You notice a Facebook post or news headline about a man being gunned down by police while his hands were in the air.

Is Oklahoma Abolishing Abortion?: Part 1
Many Oklahoman Pro-lifers are very excited by SB 15521 being passed and sent on to the Governor's Office. News headlines read “Oklahoma Passes Bill Effectively Banning Abortion” and “Oklahoma Lawmakers Pass Bill That Makes Performing An Abortion A Felony”. Sounds great, doesn’t it? Many will think so.

Church Repent is Church Love
One of the five tenets of Abolitionism is "The Obligation of the Church". There are two sides of the "Obligation of the Church" coin. One side is the obvious one that is often discussed.
