I hear stuff like this all.the.time. & ppl often assume I’m vocal bc I’m pushing a personal political agenda. I’m honestly not. It’s bc I’ve found that so many white Christians are just completely & embarrassingly ignorant abt historic traditions outside of white evangelicalism https://twitter.com/jemartisby/status/1275440327155843073

For so many, orthodoxy = a largely white (even if they don’t realize it), Religious Right, Republican version of Christianity

So heresy is functionally defined politically rather than biblically.

And my concern is not just that they’re wrong. It’s that that ignorance gets weaponized against people who disagree, especially in multiracial evangelical churches.

We need more biblical, theological, and *historical* discipleship in our churches.
