I do not know if there is any truth to who said these things but I believe what was said is the truth. You decide. I would love to give the Pastor of this predominantly black church in Virginia a hug and a high five. This guy is obviously a leader and not one of the sheep. Perhaps we should each decide who our real leader is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lesson in as far as relying on God for our provisions yes, I agree with 100%. But bringing any any political leader or his policies into a sermon I do not. Use a biblical character to get the message across yes, but a person, especially a political person who you disagree with, no. There are other ways, this way is dangerous. Who is next Hitler? Stalin? Mother Theresa? Keep it scriptural, and keep politics out. Just my humble opinion. Blessings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The United States was not founded on a church or a religion or a denomination yes on the Judeo/christian principles but not on an idea of some church and we should have separation between church and state yet hopefully governed by godly people. Which church would you want to rule in gov.? baptist, catholic, mormon, which christian church should be the leader? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say keep the separation of Church and the State, but not good strong Christians and the State. I agree with Fez, the pastor was out of line. He could have made the point he wanted to make without naming names... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Historians criticize the church for not speaking out prior to WWII. And now I hear people criticizing the church for speaking out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am just saying that the principles our government was founded on need to be re-established. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get how how you equate Christians in government, obviously with morally biblical principles being the same as a theocracy I say keep the separation of Church and the State, but not good strong Christians and the State Blessings, Nikki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
