Talarico asserts Christian salvation is Christ plus climate change, not by faith in Christ alone
Dr. Alex McFarland: ‘Christians must not be fooled by Talarico’s absurd blending of religion and progressive, populist politics; they must stand steadfast in the truth found in Scripture’
GREENSBORO, N.C. — Controversial democratic Texas state Rep. James Talarico is making waves with his recent declaration that Christians are obligated to support efforts to fight climate change. This controversial announcement is the latest attempt to undermine Christian dogma in his outrageous liberal agenda, including the claim that God identifies as nonbinary and that America should not have secure borders. Talarico’s “woke Christianity” is outraging key Christian leaders while creating mass confusion for non-believers.
“It’s dangerous to qualify Christianity,” said renowned speaker, author and apologist Dr. Alex McFarland. “The Bible makes it clear that Christ is the only way to heaven — there are no shortcuts or additional requirements. Galatians 1:8 says, ‘But even if we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you a Gospel contrary to what we have preached to you, he is to be accursed!’ That’s why we stick to Christ alone, not Christ plus climate change. Christians must not be fooled by Talarico’s absurd blending of religion and progressive, populist politics; they must stand steadfast in the truth found in Scripture.”
Alex McFarland currently co-hosts “Exploring the Word” on the American Family Radio Network, airing daily on nearly 200 radio stations across the U.S. He is also the host of the “Alex McFarland Show,” which airs weekly on NRB TV and YouTube. The “Alex McFarland Show” podcast is available here.
McFarland and theologian Bert Harper, veteran cohosts of the nationally syndicated broadcast “Exploring the Word,” are proud to announce their newest book, “100 Bible Questions and Answers on Prophecy and the End Times.” Available now, the book concisely answers biblical questions about God, Scripture, Christian Living, and more. A follow-up to their previous work, “100 Bible Questions and Answers for Families,” this book promises to guide you through some of the most fascinating and frequently misunderstood topics in Christianity: end-times prophecy and life in the everlasting new creation.
Alex McFarland has authored or co-authored more than 21 books, including the newly released 100 Bible Questions & Answers on Prophecy and the End Times,” “10 Issues that Divide Christians,” “The God You Thought You Knew,” “10 Answers for Skeptics,” “10 Answers for Atheists,” “The 21 Toughest Questions Your Kids Will Ask About Christianity,” published by Focus on the Family, and more.
