“I was hungry you fed me, naked you clothed me, captive and you set me free,” Jackson said.

Jackson is misquoting the scriptures. The Correct reading of the Passage from Matthew is:

35 For I was hungry, and you fed me. I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger, and you invited me into your home. 36 I was naked, and you gave me clothing. I was sick, and you cared for me. I was in prison, and you visited me.’...Matthew 25

There is nothing in the passage about "setting captives free". If "The Rev" is intentionally misquoting this scripture, how many more does he twist to his own agenda? From what I understand about Jesus, He takes a rather dim view of that kind of manipulation of HIS HOLY WORD.

I caught it immediately, and I'm not even ordained!

“... intentionally misquoting this scripture,...”

I believe he’s in the bill clinton school of Biblical interpretation.
