What do they think of evangelicals? † 11/22/20 (Sun) 12:23:24 788e2c No.849792

I heard that they are increasing in the US and that they are only a political group personally, I was only once, it is what they call "meetings" because my grandfather invited me, the truth seemed to me all very strange, first there was a jubilee atmosphere all Even my grandfather sang and shouted but later they cried, they threw themselves on the floor and even rolled themselves of course this became anything I even remember that there was a pastor who forced people to say "shalom" before starting the pedrication for me it was an experience very rare and what do you think?

Seems like some weird messianic pentecostals, not regular evangelicals.

Did you mean to ask "what do you think of evangelicals"?

No, evangelicalism isn't merely a voting block. Evangelical is a theological classification. Its also the truth.

That experience you described sounds like a Pentecostal event, which could also have been an evangelical church, but not necessarily.

I find that many Pentecostals are actually Unitarians (don't believe in the Trinity), and with the newer Messianic expressions of it, even moreso (not that all Messianics are unitarian, but quite a bit of them are). So yeah, far from evangelicals. Evangelicals still acknowledge the Council of Nicaea, at the very least.

What truth?

It seems to me that it is a very diluted theology not to mention that they lowered the standards of salvation, they left their faith in the hands of a man who took parts of the Bible without counting the fact of eliminating the sacraments

It seems to me you swallowed some falling points you read online without any personal investigation

They are heretics and probably unitarians.

Evangelical is such a loaded word that no one uses it correctly. It should really only be used when discussing politics and referring to a conservative christian.

No, the opposite

It is loaded because of political connotation but should be instead used for the theological meaning

Technically "evangelical" is an adjective. The correct English usage, rather than "an evangelical" would be "people who are evangelical," and it would not be a strict people group, it would be plain to the surface meaning of people who evangelize the gospel.

The problem is people are so confused about what that means now, they think that anyone who claims to evangelize is part of this people group called "evangelicals" now. The sad part is people evangelizing a false gospel and people who don't evangelize at all, but act like they are from the deep south, are by and large included in this group. But the fact is many of these people do not in fact evangelize the Gospel.

And whatever the OP was referring to there was obviously one of the many groups who are wrongly categorized as evangelizing. Those he is describing are actually "disorderly." But since we live in a culture where if someone claims to do something or be something that must mean they are actually doing it, hence they get that name.

Evangelicals are members of the evangelical tradition. Almost every other noun for Christian groups is derived from an adjective (baptist, catholic, Methodist, pietist, etc)

>people are so confused about what that means now, they think that anyone who claims to evangelize is part of this people group called "evangelicals

I have not encountered that problem. If it exists, the greater problem is thinking of the political term in a theological context.

>many of these people do not in fact evangelize the Gospel.

Why do you say this?
