Why I Took the MacArthur Video Down Hey everyone, I’ve decided to take down the MacArthur vs. Sproul rap battle after @Phil_Johnson_'s request. It would’ve been prudent of me to add an AI disclaimer as well as a disclaimer that my video attempts to represent both sides accurately and fairly, though it may be imperfect. The Covenant Theology debate is nuanced, and it’s especially hard to capture biblical thoughts and ideas into a song. The reason I felt compelled to take the video down right away after Phil Johnson’s request is three-fold: 1. Pastor Johnson knew Pastor MacArthur better than almost anyone, so I trust his judgement when he says this does a disservice to the ministry he is now continuing. 1 Peter 5:5 says “Likewise, you who are younger, be subject to the elders. Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another, for “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” While Johnson is not my church elder, he is an elder whom I respect, and I would be foolish to not listen to and consider his words. 2. Pastor Johnson says I misrepresented MacArthur, which if true, is not good. I would like clarity on where I did misrepresent his views, but in the meantime I believe it’s better to just take the video down anyways. 3. Lastly, Pastor Johnson raised a good point that neither of these men are able to approve or disapprove of the video I made. Other videos I’ve done were either of people still with us (who so far have all appreciated the videos I’ve done) or of theologians of history. MacArthur went to be with the Lord in the last year, so those who are close, like Phil Johnson and the MacArthur family are still grieving, and I now see how painful it could be to see AI generated content of your family member who just passed. For that, I am sorry and ask for your forgiveness. I am still not used to my videos garnering the attention of men who I grew up listening to on the radio, so I have lots to learn. At this point, I’ll continue doing theological rap and rock battles, but I will attempt to be more wise at how I go about it given the platform I now have. I fully understand not everyone will appreciate my videos or see them as honoring the men, even though I believe they do. You can’t please everyone. But believe in this situation removing the video honors the Grace to You ministry and honors the Lord. Appreciate all the feedback, positive and negative. God bless, Ben (Reformed and Dangerous)

@EthanWayne2001 If the Church is Orthodox, a “hostile takeover” is impossible

We need to be honest about the fact that there is a growing group of young men who want to lead a hostile takeover of the Orthodox Church in the U.S., expropriating it to forward their bigoted, reactionary politics. I’m not going to pretend this isn’t the case and feign ignorance to not rock the boat. To fail to condemn it because of self-interested concern for “growth” is exchanging the gospel for worldly “success.”

I love Lucid. I bought a Lucid Gravity sight unseen - I think it was the second delivered in LA. Tonight it bricked with me and my family in tow. Completely unacceptable. @lucid @lucidOTAir @LucidMotors

@bostonpilot85 @Lucid @LucidMotors What happened next is I left the car bricked in the parking lot. My only other option was to get it towed but I didn’t want to do that without seeing if there is some other solution first.

@stpaulburner You need to do more research. For example, go to any Coptic Orthodox Church in Los Angeles (there are many) or any other major city and you will see all races represented and fully integrated as one body.

The Biggest Problem I’ve found in the Oriental Orthodox Church (Community) is Idolatry When it comes to Race / Ethnicity / Language, EO’s and Catholics do it right in that regard. This is Generally true and exceptions don’t make the rule.

@minagelina1 @RealCandaceO @gavinortlund I don’t think you’ve ever been to a Coptic Orthodox Church and experienced the Divine Liturgy. God Willing you will, and when you do, I think you’ll change your mind.

@vinbro @RealCandaceO That's actually not true. It is a CLAIM that it hasn't changed. @gavinortlund is the man to watch. He gets into the scholarship while being irenic towards the other side. Just an fyi, the early church was iconoclast in nature. Icons developed over a few hundred years

I am not surprised to learn the Orthodox Church is growing as well. What drew you away from Protestantism?

@RealCandaceO I’m being welcomed to the Orthodox Church this Saturday. 41 years a Protestant.

Seems like my choices are either Protestant/Non-denom church: - 30 minute rock back performance - QR codes for tithing - female pastors teaching acceptance of everyone beliefs - 5% actual biblical teachings - hyper grace-ism. As long as I believe in Christ I can live however I want Catholic Church: - Maryinism. Worship Mary - Worship idols. - pray for others to intercede to Jesus for some reason because Jesus is too busy to hear me - I can lose my salvation if I don’t do specific actions and rituals and have some guy in a church absolve me
