Among the many conservative commentators taking on this secular ideology, however, is a young rising star named Samuel Sey.In worldly terms, Sey \u2014 who runs the blog Slow To Write \u2014 has an arsenal of weaponry against critical race theory and its proponents.

The fact that \u201cGod became a man in order to offer Himself as a sacrifice to rescue all humanity from the wrath of God in hell.\u201d\u201cBeing fully God and fully man, Jesus lived a perfect and righteous life \u2014 then on a cross, He bore our sins and imputed His righteousness unto repentant sinners. Therefore, because of Jesus\u2019 death and resurrection, sinners who believe in Jesus Christ are declared righteous by God. And they will be with Jesus in perfect joy and peace forever in heaven.\u201dLeftism, however, is \u201cfundamentally a rejection of what the Bible says about our history and future.\u201d\u201cLeftists reject the concept of original sin and they reject the hope of heaven,\u201d said Sey. \u201cThey refuse to accept that like Adam and Eve, we all want to be like God. They refuse to accept that God has already come up with a better plan for the future than they can. So they attempt to become like gods to establish their own version of heaven on earth \u2014 a utopia, through any evil means necessary.\u201dIndeed, Sey launched Slow To Write six years ago as a response to the nascent Black Lives Matter movement. As the organization became an \u201cinfluential and radical force in Canada,\u201d he witnessed many of his friends compromise their theology and positions on social issues.\u00a0\u201cI created my blog to encourage my friends to be \u2018slow to speak, and quick to listen\u2019 \u2014 as the Bible says in James 1:19 \u2014 by writing articles that address racial, cultural, and political issues with conservatism and biblical theology.\u201d\u201cGod is wiser than academic fools\u201dMany of Sey\u2019s articles are devoted specifically to countering critical race theory \u2014 which \u201ccannot coexist with Christianity.\u201d\u201cCritical race theorists label what the Bible calls good as evil, and they label what the Bible calls evil as good,\u201d Sey noted. \u201cCritical race theory essentially labels Christianity as racist. For instance, critical race theory rejects the biblical concept of impartiality by labeling colorblindness as racist. Naturally, that encourages partiality or racism against white people.\u201d\u201cCritical race theory also rejects the gospel\u2019s proclamation that all people fall short of the glory of God. Instead, they believe white people are uniquely evil and non-white people are uniquely innocent.\u201dSey also explained that Scripture \u2014 even in the hands of one with little formal education \u2014 is entirely sufficient to expose the irrationality of critical race theory. \u201cGod is wiser than academic fools like Ibram X. Kendi. A high school dropout like me who repeats what the Bible says cannot be wrong.\u201d\u201cCritical race theory is just the latest race-centric version of the same lies Satan shared with Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden,\u201d he continued. \u201cThere\u2019s a reason why Martin Luther King quoted the Bible in his speeches. A person with a Bible is a person with the wisdom of God \u2014 wisdom greater than the supposed wisdom of academic fools like Ibram X. Kendi.\u201dIn the past eighteen months, Sey \u2014 like Voddie Baucham, Owen Strachan, Allie Beth Stuckey, and other Christian commentators \u2014 has become a leading voice among conservatives seeking to refute the claims of critical race theory. Sey notes that conservatives \u2014 both Christians and non-Christians \u2014 are drawn to biblical responses to critical race theory because they address \u201cthe spiritual, immoral, or sinful conditions that produce leftism.\u201d\u201cWe know leftism is a lofty ideology raised against the knowledge of God,\u201d Sey observed. \u201cWe recognize leftism is fundamentally a religion that opposes Christianity and its influence on Western civilization. People are discovering the only thing that can save America and Western nations from disaster is also the only thing that can save sinners from the wrath of God: the gospel.\u201d\u201cThe only answer to leftism\u2019s false religion is the only true religion: Christianity.\u201d\u201cJesus died on a cross for repentant sinners\u201dLeftism leads to abortion, fatherlessness, and other social degeneracies posing an existential threat to Western nations. Sey frequently discusses how these issues \u2014 alongside critical race theory \u2014 reject the authority of God over human life and society.\u201cThe Bible teaches that abortion is murder. Abortion suggests God\u2019s blessings are a curse,\u201d Sey said. \u201cAbortion doesn\u2019t merely reject a baby\u2019s humanity, it also rejects God\u2019s divinity. Abortion rejects God\u2019s authority on life.\u201d\u00a0However: \u201cAbortion isn\u2019t an unforgivable sin. Jesus died on a cross for repentant sinners \u2014 including people who are repentant over their abortion.\u201dThe Bible likewise teaches that \u201cfathers are the leaders in a household.\u201d\u201cA household without a father is a household without a leader \u2014 and I know through my own experiences as a fatherless man that a household without a leader inevitably creates disastrous consequences for mothers, children, communities, and nations.\u201dAs a result of his writing, Sey has received thousands of messages from people \u201ctelling me real and specific ways God has used my words to help them.\u201d He has also become \u201cmore reflective, more candid, and more disciplined\u201d through his work.Nevertheless, Sey said that the best fruit from his work was meeting his fianc\u00e9. \u201cIf I gain nothing else from writing \u2014 if I get canceled one day \u2014 that\u2019s okay: I met my favorite person in the world through my blog.\u201dThe views expressed in this piece are the author\u2019s own and do not necessarily represent those of The Daily Wire.The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
