PASTOR GREG LOCKE TWITTER 2011 TRIAL
Incidentally, in 2019 in Knoxville an IFB pastor and sheriff’s detective called for the trial and summary execution of queer people.įor an ad-free experience and to support SWAJ: He dissociated from the IFB in mid 2011, claiming that the leadership of the movement had tried to pressure him into taking on a “legalistic mindset of man-made regulations.” Locke claims he pledged to remain amicable with the IFB despite parting ways. The church he leads, Global Vision Bible Church, originally identified itself with the Independent Fundamental Baptist movement (IFB)-one of the most conservative groups of Christians in the nation. Locke’s beliefs are firmly rooted in Christian Fundamentalism.
In 2019 he jumped to twitter to post a video of himself burning a book titled “The Founding Myth: Why Christian Nationalism Is Un-American.” LCRW attended one incognito on Wednesday last week and will tell the tale later.īurning books isn’t new to Greg Locke.

It takes little to find offensive comments on from him. The book burning happened ominously in the wake of the banning of Art Spiegelman's acclaimed graphic novel on the Holocaust "Maus" in a nearby school district. Our apologies.īrad speaks with a man he calls Jeff (identity hidden) who went undercover at the book burning led by Pastor Greg Locke. Both he and Jeff were a bit tense-wanting to get the story right and bring listeners into the scene, without giving away Jeff's identity. Brad didn't catch it in the conversation. *Correction*: "Jeff" says that Locke's church is in McMinnville, TN.
