It'll take Christians in the west to go full crusader bringing back Knight orders to reclaim the church from the leftists grip.
Which is why I see attempts at reforming the Mainline Protestant Church from within, such as Redeemed Zoomer's "Operation Reconquista", as highly optimistic at best and a fool's errand at worst.
Bless his heart, but any mark that off the top of my head his movement has made is extremely small in the grand scheme of things in terms of wresting the Church back from the left. (EDIT: Also not helped by his barring of anyone from his movement that is NOT part of a mainline church, such as those part of the SBC, or the PCA which for some ridiculous reason he holds contempt for)
RZ is part of the PCUSA, the mainline Presbyterian denomination, and probably the 3rd most woke after the UMC (Methodists) and Episcopal Church (but is not himself woke, hence the movement). He is by his own admission a hard-line Calvinist.
The reason I called his contempt for the PCA (the conservative offshoot of PCUSA) "ridiculous" is because he considers them cowards for leaving in the first place instead of staying and fighting. Knowing how leftist indoctrination works, this would have been at considerable long-term risk to anyone who chooses to stay, and considering RZ looks the other way on female pastors or otherwise minimizes the issue (knowing full well what scripture says, he considers it a 'secondary' issue), he is of no exception.
Ah i wasn't aware of him, my interest in church figures is limited to a biography I read of machen in high school.
Fully on board with dissing the PCUSA.
I know virtually nothing about that later split, but from my estimation, the OPC one happened at about the last possible straw of "fighting back" since they were teetering on kicking him out anyway.

Some people have a real hate boner for Calvin
Not quite in this case.

A shame what's become of westminster since.
