pastors. Or at least White middle-class pastors.
So today APM tunes in to his church. And then watches a little of Jonathan Falwell.
Both decried racism, which is fine as far as that goes. But of course, racism is only a part of the problem.
Both said "we trust justice to be served" but of course, too often it isn't and that is a big part of the problem.
And both said, predictably, the answer to all this is Jesus.
No. No He is not. Jesus saves you from your sins (among other things) if you believe. But Jesus doesn't address the problems that have led to the riots any more than Jesus changes the oil in your car (Jesus Christ I mean, not Jesus Lopez down at Jiffy Lube).
SMFH. APM is finding himself a new church when/if we can ever go back to something like normal church.

Yesterday and he was saying all the right things...protest peacefully, but protest. Then when he finished, he said,
“No Justice, No Peace”
HYPOCRISY!

If you find someone who preaches the word in season,...

out of season let me know. Over the last 50 years the number of preachers who have the preacher within them has dwindled down to few and far between.
Paul wrote to Timothy...
2. Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
