Liberal Pastor Accuses Conservative Christians of “Policy Pedophilia”
FinkelBlog ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Do you oppose the liberal agenda on health care, the living wage, voter ID laws, gay rights, and gun control? If so, you are guilty of supporting “non-Christian” policies.

That was the view expressed by William Barber on Joy Reid’s MSNBC show today. But Barber, a liberal pastor from North Carolina, took things an ugly step further. Suggesting that they had failed to address poverty, including child poverty, Barber accused conservative Christians of “policy pedophilia.”

Like all too many “Black Preachers,” this guy is simply a race baiter who hides behind a collection plate. He has plenty of role models with Jessie, Al and “rev.” Wright (wrong). Like all other aspects of “Black Life,” the decent Black Preachers have to deal with the negative effects of guys like this.

I don't need to read the rest to know what a miscreant this so called Pastor is. His congregation is going nowhere as long as they are guided by him.

Taking money from a rich man by force to give to a poor man is still robbery.

Robin Hood was a thief!

Barber's remarks are an example of the filth MSNBC is running 24/7, polluting the ether with anti-Trump, anti-conservative, anti-Christian, anti-American commentary.

This cable channel, along with CNN, deliberately chose NOT to honor American veterans of all wars by deliberately NOT airing the moving Veteran's Day tribute, the moments of silence and the historic playing of "Taps" in Arlington Cemetery at 11 AM, Vice-President Pence presiding.

Instead of displaying patriotism, MSNBC filled the time the sacred ceremony was ongoing by featuring radical freaks like Barber and other disgusting hate-America ravers.

SHAME on them !!!

Luke 11:46
And he said, Woe to you also, you lawyers! for you lade men with burdens grievous to be borne, and you yourselves touch not the burdens with one of your fingers.
Socialists have high standards for others but are amazingly easily impressed (by their own selves).

I’ve always believed this was a mixed story.

God can let such things happen when there is a vacuum of His people bearing forth His grace into the world. As Jesus said, if the people won’t praise, the stones will cry out.

Government is a lousy church but people still look to it when the actual churches are etiolated.

Hmm?

Well, some of this criticism could be applied to government to support many conservative tenets.

The faux liberals do “lade men with burdens grievous to be borne.”

Charity is a must, according to God. Not an option. However the MEANS must remain free, or else we begin to enshrine evil.

Indeed not very much if anything.

But that’s what happens when you badger government to do what the church ought to.

The problem is that then, along with it, you get a “government gospel.” Which is pretty jolly distorted.

We would do well (those of more traditionally minded faith) to push back to these folks and ask them why they want a government gospel.
