Many do not realize that ”BLACK LIVES MATTER” IS MARXIST AND THIS FACT IS AFFIRMED BY THEIR OWN LEADERSHIP. OF COURSE BLACK LIVES MATTER, BUT SINCE WE WERE ALL CREATED “IMAGIO DEI” IT IS CONTRARY TO GOD’S WORD TO DISCRIMINATE ON ANY ETHNIC OR RACIAL GROUNDS.
I AM GRACIOUSLY BLESSED THAT MOST OF THE GREAT MEN OF GOD WHO MENTORED ME, AUTHORED ”THE LAUSANNE COVENANT”, WITH WHICH I WHOLEHEARTEDLY AGREE.
Liberation theology has long been a tradition in Central and South America, especially in the Roman Catholic Church. In the USA, Black liberation theology is essentially the same thing, and it is also Marxist.
Jeremiah Wright, longtime pastor of former President Barack Obama, was a proud proponent of Marxist Black liberation theology. Never once did I see President Obama publicity disassociate himself from these obnoxious beliefs of his close friend Jeremiah Wright. I was sickened to see Wright proudly and angrily expouse his Marxist views as being Christian, over and over again. Wright was even an apologist for the attack on New York on 9/11. Wright’s now famous phrase: “The chickens have come home to roost” was the language that he used to approve of this evil monstrous event of 9/11.
Black liberation theology is the polar opposite of the theology of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., who was supported by JFK. Both MLK and JFK are heroes of mine. I supported them politically.
Unfortunately today’s Democrats would be unrecognizable to MLK or JFK. Democrats of the 60s must all be “turning in their graves” to listen to any of the Democrats of today, who have all now signed an evil immoral “manifesto” which in effect has excluded God — as they have enthusiastically embraced the murder of the unborn, gender confusion, homosexual marriage, and even “mob rule” — instead of supporting the heroes of our police force and first responders, who risk their lives for our safety every day (other than a small minority of very bad cops).
I am fervently praying WITH LOVE for some leaders of the evangelical church, whom I believe may possibly have lost their way. Please keep them in daily prayer — that God will bring them back to clearly revealed Biblical principles.
