For those who don't know, Beth Moore is an American evangelist and Bible teacher. She is very popular among Millennial SJW Christians
I'm trying to make sense of her comments. Not sure what it means that "the gospel has become bad news to the poor, oppressed etc."
Thoughts?

Nothing about that tweet makes any sense.
But I'd cast my net on her other side, kiss the other cheek, let my cock crow, and love her as I loved myself.

Shes throwing shade at Joel Osteen and the prosperity gospel

Prosperity theology (sometimes referred to as the prosperity gospel, the health and wealth gospel, the gospel of success, or seed faith)[A] is a religious belief among some Christians, who hold that financial blessing and physical well-being are always the will of God for them, and that faith and positive speech will increase one's material wealth.[1] Prosperity theology views the Bible as a contract between God and humans: if humans have faith in God, he will deliver security and prosperity.[2]
The doctrine emphasizes the importance of personal empowerment, proposing that it is God's will for his people to be blessed. It is based on interpretations of the Bible that are mainstream in Judaism (with respect to the Hebrew Bible),[3] though less so in Christianity. The atonement (reconciliation with God) is interpreted to include the alleviation of sickness and poverty, which are viewed as curses to be broken by faith. This is believed to be achieved through donations of money, visualization, and positive confession.

Someone should remind her that sloth & envy are two of the seven deadly sins, two traits quite common among social justice circles.

I'm thinking she's talking about illegal immigrants and those of us Christians who are opposed to it.
My liberal atheist sister n law has thrown this in my face many times.

Seems pretty obvious: she's pushing back against the so-called "prosperity gospel". "Christians" fetishizing the military and material wealth seems, to some people, like the exact opposite of WJWD.

I read that as a statement against the prosperity gospel.

The gospel is bad news to the morally depraved who just happen to be poor.

Aren't Christians by definition supposed to be SJWs? It's only since the advent of these mega church right wing prosperity gospel douches (who are often having gay or straight affairs, sometimes on meth, while rolling the membership) that the opposite is true among some of you.

Snake oil just like all the rest.
Posted on 2/10/19 at 2:20 pm to L.A.
I read it as a comment about people who use the gospel to fit their own agenda. Like what she's doing.
Posted on 2/10/19 at 2:20 pm to L.A.
I interpret it to say that if we do not like what the gospel says and if it hurts our feelings, we can change it to fit our narrative.
But I'm pretty sure it doesn't work that way!

It means Gordon needs to take down his damned billboards

Twitter makes everything vapid. If she’s deconstructing the emptiness of Prosperity Theology, I get it. If she’s arguing that we all need to be socialists to be good humans she can eat me.

Mohammed will straighten out Beth.

its because these new age hucksters aren't teaching the good news, they are teaching their preverted "traditions of men"

She isn't entirely wrong (as interpret her jibberish), but both she and the money grubbing televangelist should aspire to me more like Jesus.
Maybe we all should...
you heathens.

It means many right wing evangelicals have no real clue what Jesus was about, and have distorted and/or ignored his word, but claim it, to fit their vision of American Exceptionalism

Seems to me she is saying today's Christians aren't Christians and the gospel fails to resonate with those who need it because of the conduct of today's Christians
Guess she hadn't done her job very well
