The so-called “Christ at the Checkpoint” conference is going on right now in Bethlehem. This of course is the biblical city where Jesus Christ was born. It was also the first seat of government for King David 3,000 years ago.

Tragically, the town today is a gathering of anti-Jewish and anti-Christian Zionist propagandists who are promoting Liberation Theology—a view that lifts Scripture out of context to describe alleged abuses of Palestinians by Israeli “occupiers.”

Sadly, Fuller Seminary President Mark Labberton is speaking at the conference. According to a report from the conference, Labberton:

“He argues that the gospel is an explicit message of social, political, religious and moral redemption – in equal parts.”

This kind of left-wing ideology is shockingly coming from an evangelical institution. Although, Fuller is now deeply involved in left-wing activities, including sending students to a place called “Palestine” to come back and advocate for the Palestinian narrative and Liberation Theology. This from a seminary that turns-out next-generation pastors.

Shame on Fuller, and shame on Mark Labberton.
