During a church service, being a culture warrior was referenced twice negatively.
Yet missions was favorably mentioned by that particular Sunday’s designated homilest.
But how is being a culture warrior not simply missions outreach to one’s own nation?
As a congregation with a significant number of families with children, if culture warriors are to be looked down upon for being vocally bold as was castigated during these worship proceedings, are these parents to remain silent if their offspring were to be exposed to filthy stories or someone with particular bodily issues subjected these minors to their physiological dissonance in an excretory chamber deemed by overwhelming social consensus as inappropriate for this hypothetical offender of conventional norms?
If the congregation’s hierarchy considers it inappropriate for members in good standing to vigorously articulate in favor of sociopolitical positions philosophically tangential not of direct soteriological consequence, does its consistory intend to discipline its elder Jonathan Leeman for not only going out of his way to theologically denigrate the American flag but who is documented beyond a reasonable doubt as having participated in a march supportive of Black Lives Matter organized by a gaggle of leftwing religionists?
Or does cultural engagement only rise to the level of grievous sin when in support of American, conservative, and/or non-minority concerns? \
