SRR 125 Should Christians Support Black Lives Matter?
Tim and Hiram talk about whether or not Christians should be supporting Black Lives Matter. Of course both the host believe that black lives do matter because black people are fearfully and wonderfully made in the image of God. Tune in to find out why they take issue with the organization and the support it receives from Christians.
First, it must be contented that the only worldview that can give any meaning to the claim that black lives matter is the Christian worldview. Yet, the BLM organization and it’s leaders are operating from an anti-Christian cultural Marxist worldview. They promote deceptive lies such as white privilege, white guilt, and redefine terms.
The notions of “white privilege” and “white guilt” commit the fallacy of sweeping generalization and are actually rooted in Anti-Christian Marxist ideology that is meant to divide people into classes of oppressed and oppressor.
The idea that white people don’t see it because they are white commits the genetic fallacy.
There is no epistemological foundation by which one can establish the premise of white privilege or white guilt. If one wishes to appeal to a limited set of particular examples in order to substantiate these generalizations then they are committing the fallacy of induction.
Therefore, they are merely assertions that are grounded in fallacious reasoning which consequently result in an indictment of a whole group of people on the basis of their skin color.
As Christians we should have a Christian worldview. Christianity is a system of truth and the Bible alone is its objective standard. This means that as Christians we should be able to reason with each other and arrive at the same conclusions. It greatly concerns us that this is not happening amongst Christian brothers and sisters over this current cultural crisis. Instead of turning to God’s word many in the church are turning to Anti-Christian Marxist ideology. They are embracing what has become known as cultural Marxism.
See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ. - Colossians 2:8
