To remain in the spotlight of mainstream leftist media, Baptist minister uses Marxist hate speech to attack conservative Baptists in Brazil
By

Baptist
minister and theologian Ronilso Pacheco can no longer disguise that ideological
hatred moves his life and words. Inspired by black Liberation Theology, which
is as Marxist as any theology of this kind, he defends the indefensible: BLM, a
terrorist group whose rioters loot shops and commit all kinds of violence.

Now
Pacheco, who considers himself a Baptist, attacks two of the main leaders of Brazil’s
Baptist Church of Lagoinha: Ana Paula Valadão and André Valadão.
“At
this level of situation, Ana Paula and André Valadão should be held
responsible. What André Valadão recommends for the gay community is ghetto,
segregation, distancing. This is as cowardly as it is dishonest. What Ana Paula
says about gays is a denial of people’s social life, a public accusation so
stupid that it runs over science and common sense in the name of a sick and
harmful fundamentalism.”
Instead
of defending the evangelical singer against the leftist media mobs, Pacheco
joined the mobs. I did not join the mobs. I preferred to defend the singer’s
Christian testimony with my article: “Brazilian evangelical singer Ana
Paula Valadão is criticized by the left-wing media and she is compared to
Hitler by a gay group threatening her with lawsuit for saying that AIDS is a
deadly consequence of the sexual union between two men.”
The
more Pacheco, who became a mere puppet of the Marxist ideology and leftist
press, attacks evangelicals, the more interviews he receives from the
mainstream TV media. And to secure the spotlight, he seeks to please the left
by not sparing the most radical terms against evangelicals.
Homosexuals,
like all other sinners, are welcome in churches. But they cannot do what they
want in that environment. They cannot kiss. They can’t use drugs there. They
can’t drink there.
Church
is the place where sinners, including homosexuals, should find their
deliverance through Jesus Christ.
Just
because homosexuals are not free to do in church what they do in a gay club or
nightclub — where they drink, smoke, use drugs and prostitute themselves at
will — does not mean “ghetto, segregation and distancing.” Pacheco knows that.
But in order to keep the comfortable spotlight of the leftist media, he has to
throw evangelicals at lions in every way possible. The price of his success is
not his personal sacrifice, but he sacrificing evangelicals.
On
homosexuality and AIDS, there was medical and scientific consensus at the
beginning of this epidemic in the 1980s that the main victims of AIDS were
homosexuals. Experts, driven more by ideology than people’s well-being, then
stated that in the future AIDS would mainly affect the non-homosexual
population. We are already in the future, and the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention, the most important group in the U.S.
government on health issues, said
in 2020:
“Gay, bisexual, and other men who
have sex with men are the population most affected by HIV in the United States.
In 2017, adult and adolescent gay and bisexual men made up 70%.”
Therefore, if in the 1980s AIDS was
undoubtedly a predominantly gay disease, today nothing has changed: It
continues to be predominantly gay.
Even
so, Pacheco said:
“Associating
AIDS and homosexuality is not just out of fashion, out of context or backward,
it is the perversity of those who display a futile and unimportant faith.”
If
the left says that there is no law of gravity, Pacheco will repeat this lie as
a parrot just to please the left. If the left orders him to handstand in front
of the public, he will obey without batting an eye.
Pacheco
showed that he has a terrible ability to interpret scientific data and a great
capacity to be an instrument of the left’s hatred against evangelicals.
Pacheco
also said:
“Believing
in homosexuality as a sin, according to the way they read the Bible, is a right
that the Valadão siblings have. And I emphasize that it is ‘according to the
way they read the Bible,’ because the claim that homosexuality is a ‘sin’ is
far from being a consensus among evangelical leaders, including scholars and
theologians. This understanding is much more impregnated by socially
constructed reading traditions than explicitly in the Bible. It is an interpretation
and not a fact. Faith and religiosity cannot shield public figures who
reinforce prejudice and homophobia.”
It
is a relativistic speech. No Baptist or other evangelical should be surprised
by such blatant relativism in Baptist theologian Pacheco, who with his
immigrant visa in the U.S. is studying at the Union Theological Seminary, one
of the oldest and left-wing theological institutions in the United States.
The
president of the Union Theological
Seminary believes that Jesus was not born of a virgin
and still finds this idea “bizarre.” She believes that God’s omnipotence and
omniscience are fabrications. And she doesn’t believe in Jesus’ resurrection.
After
studying at this American institution, Pacheco will become an exporter of the
moral relativism he learned in the U.S. In fact, even before finishing his
course he is already exporting.
It
is not the first time that a Brazilian has been brainwashed by American
leftists. When he was young, Brazilian Lutheran André Musskopf
studied at U.S. Lutheran seminars, where he learned moral relativism and gay
theology. He returned homosexualized to Brazil. Today, he is an exporter of the
gay theology that he learned in the U.S.
Tardily,
Brazilian evangelicals are only copying what was already happening in Brazilian
society. Marta Suplicy was a honorary president of the International Lesbian,
Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Intersex Association conference in Brazil in 1995, as
I reported in my book “The Homosexual Movement,” published by the Brazilian
branch of Bethany House Publishers in 1998.
She,
who is a former congresswoman and senator, also introduced the first homosexual
“marriage” bill in Brazil. How did she become an exporter of the gay agenda? In
the 1960s and 1970s, she studied at U.S. universities and returned to Brazil filled
of moral relativism. With such experience, or brainwashing, she was the host of
the TV Woman show on Brazil’s TV Globo in the late 1970s and 1980s. Her show
extolled moral and sexual relativism, including homosexuality.
The
U.S. has good and bad things to export. I’m just sad that many Brazilians
choose the worst things in the U.S.
Pacheco
is just the result of the ideological learning that he, of his own free will,
decided to embrace. He knew and loved the bad things the U.S. has to export.
And today he is a mere exporter of these bad things.
Instead
of using the Gospel against Marxism, Pacheco uses Marxism against the Gospel.
Instead
of being an instrument of the Gospel, it is an instrument of Marxism.
Instead
of opposing leftists and their activism, he joins them to oppose conservative
evangelicals.
Instead
of recognizing that there is a lot of hatred on the left, especially against
conservative evangelicals, Pacheco prefers to interpret that hatred as “love.”
Instead
of seeing evangelicals’ love for homosexual sinners, he prefers to abandon the view
of the Gospel and use the lens of Marxism to see evangelicals in the worst
possible way.
It
would be much more useful if Pacheco were less cowardly and more courageous and
instead of identifying himself as a “Baptist theologian” or “Baptist pastor,”
he identified himself with the ideological nature he adopted: Marxist militant.
Not
even far, Ana Paula Valadão’s speech is hate. Although Pacheco saw only hatred
in her speech, what Ana said that infuriated the entire left, including Pacheco,
was:
“A
lot of people think that it [homosexuality] is normal. This is not normal. God
created man and woman and we believe this way. Any other sexual option is a
free choice of the human being. And any choice leads to consequences. The Bible
calls any choice contrary to what God has determined to be ideal, as he created
us to be, he calls sin. And sin has a consequence, which is death, including
everything that is distorted has consequences naturally. Nor is God bringing a
plague or judgment. AIDS is here to show that the sexual union between two men
causes a disease that leads to death and contaminates women. Anyway, it’s not
God’s ideal. Do you know what is safe sex, which does not transmit any disease?
Safe sex is called a wedding ring.”
As
sick as this may seem, Pacheco sees hatred in this Christian love speech and he
sees love in the leftist hate speech. He calls good evil and evil good, as the
Bible says:
“Woe
to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light
for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter! Woe to those who
are wise in their own eyes, and shrewd in their own sight!” (Isaiah 5:20-21
ESV)
In
World War 2, there were Jews who betrayed other Jews to please the Nazis and
receive some crumbs from them. Today, evangelicals who have learned absolutely
nothing from the past betray their evangelical brothers to please the mainstream
leftist media and receive some crumbs.
Years
ago, I denounced the opening of the Baptist Church of Lagoinha to a famous leftist
minister of the Presbyterian Church of Brazil. My objective was to help the
Church of Lagoinha not to be contaminated with the leftist ideology, of which Pacheco
became a victim, an example and an exporter.
Today,
the Baptist Church of Lagoinha is the victim of a Baptist theologian who does
not assume his ideological hatred, but prefers to disguise his Marxism as a
different and better gospel.
Apostle
Paul warned us about different gospels:
“But
even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what
we have preached to you, let him be accursed. As we have said before, so now I
say again, if anyone preaches any other gospel to you than what you have
received, let him be accursed.” (Galatians 1:8-9 NKJV)
Even
if a black angel, with a black liberation theology, appears with a black gospel
with black liberation, don’t believe it! The sad ending of this false gospel is
an eternity in darkness.
