?!?! Evangelical leaders signed manifesto against the push for social justice!?!?
IIRC it was published in Sept 2018.
There are many internet sources for the text, the signers, etc
Saw a YouTube video of part of a recent conference attacking the concept of social justice, claiming it was a direct attack on Christianity.
They also vehemently attacked the concepts of intersectionality and being woke.
From what I was able to gather, all these concepts, movements are perceived to be 'a danger to the church' because they support LGBT rights and women's rights and minority rights.
IMHO in their support of this statement Evangelicals have explicitly and loudly rejected the message of Jesus in Matthew 25 where the sheep are separated from the goats.
