The Bee is great with comedy.
I'm 4 generations in with FBA Dallas. There is a reason there won't be a 5th, unless Jeffer's is gone. I even went to FBA in school. No reason to politic in church. This all makes me sick for my old church. Preach the word, not politics.
Great stuff!LIB,MR BEARS said:

Sad to say Robert is a BU grad. Thankfully, didn't major in religion.
Abner McCall said we should refund the tuition of some who graduated from BU because they didn't learn anything while they were there.
Robert should be first in that line!

Agreed. Now let's tell a plurality of black churches that too.

It really is amazing how little you know about black churches and pastors
Educate yourself, and you won't look so much like Strom Thurmond.
Black churches were the only safe spaces for an oppressed people to talk politics. If politics hadn't been preached there, there would have been no Civil Rights movement and the South would still be segregated.

Are you part of an oppressed congregation?

Shut it, bigot. No one in America is oppressed. Everyone plays by the same rules or they don't play. Black people are not pets for you to adopt.

And yet that's basically how the dimcrat party has viewed them for over half of a century and counting. Plus, I love it when lefties site crap that happened 60 years ago as some kind of proof of oppression as if it happened last week and the country hasn't changed and changed significantly.
I agree with you on the history, but the Strom line was unnecessary. Canon makes a fair point. It's not just that black churches discuss politics - many white and mixed churches do also - it's that it is far more common for actual politicians to be invited to and speak at black churches. It's only when that happens at white churches that the media and white liberals make a big deal about it. I wish all churches kept politicians out.C.

2. Read up a little more about the civil rights movement. It had far more to do with international capital, the mass media, and the American political establishment putting their thump on the scales than the black church.
Or more should we say... the black church was the face of the revolution that international capitalism, the Media, and the D.C. political establishment wanted to launch.
The lawyer Stanley David Levison (born in NYC to a Jewish family) ghost writing many of MLK's speeches is a condensed symbol for the entire movement.
Let the congrations decide with their money and feet.
I have found theres only two ways to go:
Living fast or dying slow.
I dont want to live forever.
But I will live while I'm here.

The bigotry was oppressing people because of their skin color. There is no bigotry in recognizing the role black churches played in the Civil Rights movement. Care to explain this latest ignorance?

Is Jeffress a false teacher? I don't think so. But, I believe he is confused about whether conservative politics is his god

The black church is actually a perfect example of this.
They have thrown in 100% with one party...and yet what have they gotten for it?
Jeffress wants to make Evangelicals the kept boys of the Wall St. republicans.

I already answered this but again: Tax em, you wanna play you gotta pay. I don't care what color the pastor is, that is really irrelevant.

I agree with taxing them. It's high time that churches and charitable organizations to pay their fair share of federal taxes. They need to start paying property taxes too.quash said:Rawhide said:Do you think that white pastors should only be allowed to preach the word and black pastors should be allowed to preach the politics?quash said:

yes because the feds would do a much better job with $100K than someone like Carenet.quash said:Rawhide said:Do you think that white pastors should only be allowed to preach the word and black pastors should be allowed to preach the politics?quash said:

Is that a church that engages in politics? Doesn't look like it...

"Our country needs a Savior right now, and our country has a Savior, and that's not me," Trump said. "That's somebody much higher up than me."

After Trump's "sermon?" the associate pastor said that the church does not endorse any political candidates, and the congregation laughed.
Tax em.
Fairly sure that statement was written for Trumps. That ain't him. Are far as this Jeffress fella is concerned, I live a mile as a crow flys from that church and he is a nut! I am a native Dallasite and have never personally met 1 person who went or goes to that church. Finally, I see someone on this thread who is a FBC lifer and won't go back to that place until that clown is gown. Much respect. Sad for the church, I suppose. How anyone could respect or give money to that church whilst that clown is there is beyond me. There are lots of really great places of worship in Dallas that don't get into politics......Forest Bueller said:

And sure, someone probably wrote than for Trump as he very well may not have meant it.
But, that said, what he said was correct.
I'm sure the rest of his speech was a mess, like it usually is.
