The Conversation On The Race Issue Is Buzzing

However, while there will be some conversions in thinking in the Kinist direction the issue as a whole is not going to find the majority of people convinced, as if everyone is going to come over to a Biblical position.

Just think about how long race has been an issue in the West. Why would we think that it will be determined in such a way as to no longer be contentious?

The PCA was birthed, in part, because of the race issue. I think new denominations need to be birthed now the same way the PCA was birthed once upon a time. People don’t know this as it has been conveniently buried but the PCA came out of the PCUS for the reasons that we find unearthed from one of the PCA founding Fathers;

Causes of Separation in 1973 (PCA separates from PCUS)

• The Socialist, who declares all men are equal.  Therefore there must be a great leveling of humanity and oneness of privilege and possession.
• The Racial Amalgamationist, who preaches that the various races should be merged into one race and differences erased in oneness.
• The Communist, who would have one mass of humanity coerced into oneness by a totalitarian state and guided exclusively by Marxist philosophy.
• The Internationalist, who insists on co-existence between all peoples and nations that they be as one regardless of ideology or history.

On this subject I have also I’ve seen plenty of people say “this issue is not a Gospel issue.” I would say first, if this is not a Gospel issue then why am I hearing of churches splitting because those departing don’t want to be associated with fellow members of the church they are leaving due to the fact that those being left behind are “racist?”

I beg to differ though on this not being a Gospel issue. Now, I’m sure there are all kinds of Alienists who have not thought this through and so do not realize the implications of being an Alienist. However, there are others who should understand that this is indeed a Gospel issue.

Think about it. Alienism – that which is being pursued by those who hate Kinism – is based on the premise of egalitarianism. That premise whether consciously stated to the individual Alienists in question is; “all men are the same.” However, Egalitarianism cannot arrive at this premise without first consciously or unconsciously embracing other first principles.

Egalitarianism is both birthed by and the result of pulling down God off His throne. It can only be argued, as the Egalitarians argue, that “all men are the same racially” if one is operating from a (usually hidden) premise that God and man are the same. Egalitarianism in one’s theology leads to Egalitarianism in one’s social order thinking … and is reinforced as the conclusion also. In other words, one begins by holding that God and man are the same and then ends with concluding God and man are the same which in turn leads to all men are the same.  Said differently, one can’t flatten out their anthropology without first flattening out their theology.

This denial of racial distinctions is, at its core, a denial of distinctions both between God and man as well as the distinctions between the members of the trinity. I would recommend two books that demonstrate this;

R. J. Rushdoony — “The One And The Many”
Colin Gunton — “The One, The Three, And The Many”

Christianity does not allow, because of its doctrines of

1.) The Creator-creature distinction

2.) The distinction between the members of the Trinity

the egalitarian doctrine that “all men are the same, therefore all men can and should interracially marry.”

Now, as I’ve said a million times, these kinds of marriages may well be entered into but they should never be seen as the norm. If they are entered into Christians should try to support these ill advised marriages as much as they can.

Referring back to Dr. John Edwards Rice, who I quoted above, we explain;

“No human can measure the anguish of personality that goes on within the children of miscegenation… Let those who would erase the racial diversity of God’s creation beware lest the consequence of their evil be visited upon their children.”

And again,

“The vast majority of good thinking people prefer to associate with, and intermarry with, people of their respective race; this is part of the God-given inclination to honor and uphold the distinctiveness of separate races. But there are many false prophets of oneness, and many shallow stooges, who seek to force the amalgamation of the races.” ~
