Brian Zahnd being Brian Zahnd:
It appears that the Southern Baptists have traded Beth Moore and Russell Moore for Donald Trump.

Worst trade ever.*
* Well, there was the Jesus for Barabbas trade.
Important to note: The SBC isn't just running out white leaders like Russell Moore and Beth Moore. They've also alienated Black leaders.

Several Black pastors break with the Southern Baptist Convention over a statement on race https://t.co/z62UOi6QYZ
Choosing Donald Trump and James Lindsay over Beth Moore and Russell Moore is basically the equivalent of chanting “we want Barabbas!”

The war goes on. To borrow from Winston Churchill, “This is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.” https://t.co/53NSUBbHwA

Pretty much exactly right. https://t.co/lfEjanKyup

Radical subjectivist Ed Stetzer?
1. Jemar Tisby joined radical progressive Ibram Kendi X.
— Michael O'Fallon – Sovereign Nations (@SovMichael) May 19, 2021
2. Russell Moore joined radical subjectivist Ed Stetzer
These men are just going to where they really belong.

Not sure what this means. Sounds like some pretty intense SBC inside baseball:
They can think what they want, but the flag was simply agreeing with @cuatronelson’s call to go to the convention and take the ship. Where was their outrage at Russell Moore endorsing the godlessness at Living Out?

Russell Moore wasn’t a pastor.

He was a manipulator of truth.

Southern Baptists should abolish the so-called "Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission"and dump immigration enthusiast Russell Moore.

He no more speaks for rank-and-file Baptists than his pal George W. Bush speaks for rank-and-file Americans. https://t.co/oOa4SWeJNy
Congratulations to my brother! I am grateful for my friend @drmoore. My prayer is God will use him greatly in this new assignment. He will continually be in my prayers as his been during his time of leading the @ERLC. https://t.co/ohJ3hLVljP

UPDATE: 2:52 PM EST:
It does not matter who leads the @ERLC: it will necessarily divide Southern Baptists.

Here’s the case for ending it. Not hiring someone more conservative than Russell Moore. Ending it. For everyone’s sake.https://t.co/P7MOrWUYHL
Am I missing the part where Russell Moore says he's "leaving the SBC"? Genuine question.
— Austin Fischer (@austintfischer) May 19, 2021
I see a lot of people saying he has, but I do not see him saying he has.
But most of all, I'm thrilled for him and @CTmagazine!
I hate to hear that Dr. Russell Moore will be leaving the ERLC but thankful that he will continue to speak courageously and boldly to issues facing our culture. Dr. Moore has stood unflinchingly on the Scriptures as the Christian’s ultimate authority. (1/8)
— J.D. Greear (@jdgreear) May 19, 2021
Let this sink in: the SBC showed more fidelity to #45 than they ever did to Beth Moore and they are choosing an atheist over Russell Moore! So please tell me again how the SBC stands on the authority of scripture and not the culture of personalities ??
— Lance Mann (@lancemann) May 19, 2021
The most liberal thing Russell Moore ever did was point out the flaw of worshipping Trump.
— AnonymousYouthPastor (@YouthPastrAnon) May 19, 2021
But my feeds are full of good riddance posts, because he’s allegedly liberal now.
UPDATE: 8:47 PM EST:
"He’s comfortably orthodox, he’s not cantankerously orthodox" – meet Russell Moore, a suit-and-tie guy who tweets about his love for country and rap music and is shaking up the Southern Baptist news scene today https://t.co/TpI81sb5f6
— Michelle Boorstein (@mboorstein) May 19, 2021
@BethMooreLPM (no relation to Russell Moore) told me about the swift backlash she and Russell received when they spoke out against Trump.

“He is one of those rare leaders who can live without public approval but not without his personal God-given convictions," she said.
Russell Moore is (was) to the Southern Baptists what Liz Cheney is to the house Republicans.
