Looks like even Jesus is a little too woke for todays MAGA crowd...

The editor of Christianity Today is warning that evangelical Christianity is moving too far to the right,
to the point that even Jesus's teachings are considered "liberal" and "weak" now.

Moore said Tuesday that multiple pastors have told him they would quote the Sermon on the Mount
when preaching and someone would come up after the service and ask, "Where did you get those liberal talking points?"

"What was alarming to me is that in most of these scenarios, when the pastor would say, 'I'm literally quoting Jesus Christ,' the response would not be,
'I apologize.' The response would be, 'That doesn't work anymore. That's weak,'' Moore said.

"When we get to the point where the teachings of Jesus himself are seen as subversive, weak and liberal, then we're in a crisis."

During an interview with Semafor last month, Moore warned that Trump posed "A unique threat, both to American institutions and to the church's witness."
He added that he had provided political and spiritual advice to candidates running against Trump in the 2024 GOP presidential primary.

Sorry Jesus, it's not you its them.
