Accuser of the Brethren -Julie Anne Smith’s Slander of Biblical Men & Ministries

This article catalogues a small representative portion of Julie Anne Smith’s ongoing slander of Biblical men and ministries across America. The list includes Voddie Baucham, Todd Friel, Wayne Grudem, Ken Ham, Phil Johnson, John MacArthur, John Piper, R.C. Sproul, and R.C. Sproul Jr. All these men share a passion for the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the Word of God, and at varying levels all these men have been targeted by Julie Anne Smith’s slander.

In 2009, Julie Anne was placed under church discipline for her criminal slander against the families, leadership, and Pastor of Beaverton Grace Bible Church. What began as an attack on the families and leadership of the local church she attended, has now grown into a universal assault of Biblical men and ministries everywhere. Julie Anne has an ever increasing list of targets and a never ending supply of slanderous accusations with which to attack them. To say that Julie Anne Smith is “unrepentant” would be a massive understatement. May the Lord grant her repentance. May Christ’s Church be protected. May the ministry of the Gospel be unfettered.

“These six things the Lord hates, Yes, seven are an abomination to Him: A proud look, A lying tongue, Hands that shed innocent blood, A heart that devises wicked plans, Feet that are swift in running to evil, A false witness who speaks lies, And one who sows discord among brethren.” (Prov. 6:16-19)

“A lying tongue hates those who are crushed by it.” (Prov 26:28)

NOTE: The images you see in the following article came from Julie Anne’s blog and twitter.

*Julie Anne Smith attacks the Gospel proclaiming movie Courageous, accusing the African American father of “emotional incest” for giving a promise/purity ring to his daughter. Taking something sweet and Biblical and turning it into an accusation of “incest” is a great example of Julie Anne’s slander methodology.

*Smith goes on an egalitarian rant against John Piper and others for daring to say figure skating is a good depiction of Biblical complementarian roles.

Article Uses Olympics Pairs Figure Skating to Promote Roles of Husband and Wife in Complementarianism -An article at John Piper’s Desiring God website promotes “Biblical” roles of husbands and wives in complementarianism, using Olympic pairs figure skating as an example of how the roles work together. http://spiritualsoundingboard.com/2014/02/12/article-uses-olympics-pairs-figure-skating-to-promote-roles-of-husband-and-wife-in-complementarianism/

*Smith sets her egalitarian sights on Todd Friel of Wretched Radio for “interrupting” a woman evangelist.

Todd Friel: Interrupts a Woman Sharing the Gospel Message with a Man so He Could Do it Instead -A woman was in the midst of sharing the Gospel with a man.  When the Wretched folks found out she was sharing the Gospel to a man, they ask the woman to pass the phone to Todd Friel.  Why??? http://spiritualsoundingboard.com/2013/12/07/todd-friel-interrupts-a-woman-sharing-the-gospel-message-with-a-man-so-he-could-do-it-instead/

*Smith articulates her egalitarian rejection of the clear teaching of Scripture regarding the different but complementary roles of men and women with support video from N.T. Wright. Her angst against God’s complementary design is clearly one of her motives for slandering Biblical men and ministries.

Women in the Church: What Does the Bible Really Say? -What does the Bible say about women in the church?  Are wives inferior to men, to be controlled and ruled over by men?  Does the Bible say women cannot lead or teach?  Can they teach men? …Ok, along these lines, I found a video excerpt from Bishop N.T. Wright. ttp://spiritualsoundingboard.com/2014/02/09/women-in-the-church-what-does-the-bible-really-say/

 

*Smith promotes a woman pastor against the clear teaching of Scripture.

*Julie Anne Smith took a selfie in front of Beaverton Grace Bible Church and tweeted it out to the world on Jan. 3, 2014. Take a look at the picture below and note the gleeful smile. Seeking to destroy pastors, evangelists, churches, ministries, and families with slander is clearly Julie Anne Smith’s sinful fun. Julie Anne remains under church discipline. May God grant her repentance. May God protect and encourage those who are harmed by her lies.

Please don’t allow her slander to affect your opinion of any of the men or ministries she assaults.
