A wolf in sheep’s clothing; The After Party leftist political project is steeped in hypocrisy and lies,
says Dr. Alex McFarland
‘What the liberal left, media, and creators of The After Party would like is for conservative Christians to hide in the shadows while they torch America’s foundations and make a mockery of God and His Word’
GREENSBORO, N.C. — As Americans prepare to vote in the upcoming 2024 presidential election, many Christian conservatives are eagerly anticipating a Republican victory and a return to traditional, American values. A new project by author Curtis Chang, columnist David French and theologian Russell Moore called The After Party is working to “heal political divisions within the Church” while the co-creators openly mock Republican candidate and former president Donald Trump and his supporters. The After Party consists of a six-session course and accompanying study guides on how Christians should remain detached from political engagement, yet Chang, French, and Moore often demonize “white Evangelicals” for their traditional political views on healthcare, the role of government, and more. Many are going as far as labeling the co-founders as “never Trumpers,” or conservatives who openly refuse to vote for the leading Republican candidate no matter who else is running for office.
This outright attack against conservative Christians while masquerading as a religious entity is a prime example of the hypocritical criticism many face in today’s society, according to youth, culture and religion expert Dr. Alex McFarland.
“This two-faced approach to politics is about as underhanded and unbiblical as you get,” said McFarland. “Why does any push for believers to remain neutral in politics inevitably lead to a vote against Christian interests? Chang, French and Moore are trying to convince conservative Christians to stay out of the political arena while they openly bash Donald Trump and ridicule his supporters. What the liberal left, media, and creators of The After Party would like is for conservative Christians to hide in the shadows while they torch America’s foundations and make a mockery of God and His Word. The After Party is directly funded by secular leftist foundations that promote abortion and the LGBTQ lifestyle, including the One America Movement and the Hewlett Foundation, proving that their loyalties lie not with the biblical perspective on these political issues but rather with the social whims of the day.
“For my fellow believers looking to honor their commitment to God and vote accordingly this year, I urge you to consider this one question and choose accordingly: Would you rather have a ‘polite’ villain or a ‘rude’ hero?”
