I am blessed that my pastor and others he has preaches teach the word of God every Sunday and stays away from politics. If it be from the left or the right. When I attend church I don't want hear about politics or the upcoming election unless it is my election which Jesus has bought. And for sure on Easter Sunday or as I call it Resurrection Sunday I don't hear about politics at church. That is the day of all days pastors should proclaim how Jesus died and was raised by God the father from the dead. Sadly that is not what President Obama and his family heard in church on Easter morning. THE REV. LUIS LEON CRITICIZED THE SO-CALLED RELIGIOUS RIGHT FOR “HOLDING BACK” PROGRESS ON SAME-SEX MARRIAGE, IMMIGRATION AND OTHER ISSUES that concern the world.
LEON SAID, “IT DRIVES ME CRAZY WHEN THE CAPTAINS OF THE RELIGIOUS RIGHT ARE ALWAYS CALLING US BACK…FOR BLACKS TO BE IN THE BACK OF THE BUS…FOR WOMEN TO BE BACK IN THE KITCHEN…FOR IMMIGRANTS TO BE BACK ON THEIR SIDE OF THE BORDER.”
This pastor must have been living in a cave because the religious right has been gone for awhile. Since this pastor believes in same sex marriage he must not believe what the word of God teaches. I would also like to know who in the so called religious right wants blacks to be in the back of the bus.
Jesus teaches in the Bible his Kingdom is not of this world. This pastor's kingdom seems to be this world. Too bad the souls including President Obama who attended his church on Easter morning didn't hear about the Kingdom of God.
What do you think?
