About Me

Spike Folker here; ready to expose the Gospel-less failure of the postmodern evangelical church, from the perspective of a small town Christian trying to fight the good fight and not be overtaken.

For The Brood

Arrogance, defined biblically, is the practice of challenging the will of the triune God. Every aspiring idol, precisely because it is aspiring to replace the triune God, must seek (however unsuccessfully) to take on the same attributes. This means that idols try to define arrogance in the same way. Arrogance is that which challenges the god who seeks to reign.

This means that when modern evangelicalism has compromised fatally with the idols of the age (which it most certainly has), and when someone points that out in a way that cannot be ignored, the basic defense of the idolatry is to attack the critic as one who is arrogant.
