Intro by Steve Shultz: THE ELIJAH LIST www.elijahlist.com PROPHETIC.TV www.prophetic.TV

Bishop Harry Jackson, pastor of a 2000-member African-American Church in Washington, D.C., and I (Steve Shultz) each serve on ACPE, an organization spearheaded by C. Peter Wagner with participation by other notable voices such as Cindy Jacobs, James Goll, Dutch Sheets, and Chuck D. Pierce. We meet once each year to hear and publish, collectively, what God seems to be saying to the Church -- both the American and worldwide Church.

Harry and I have spent several hours by phone getting to know and understand one another's ministry and outlook for the White and African-American Church.

CBS will be following his ministry around this next week, and CBN will also be interviewing him. Bishop Jackson, as well as others listed below (such as Wellington Boone, Kimberly Daniels, and Larry Jackson), are all "on the same page" with this article and I, too, believe that the Black vote will be the deciding or swing vote in this upcoming election.

As Bishop Jackson and I have talked, though there was an admitted moral problem, even by President Clinton Himself, in the presidency before George W. Bush -- nevertheless, President Clinton was, according to Scripture, God's selection for that "hour" in history -- HE picks all those in authority.

In the same way, Bishop Jackson and many in the Black Community now believe -- and are beginning to state publicly -- that it seems God may be saying that George W. Bush is to be God's man for the hour in these next four years -- again!

We encourage you to forward this article to your Christian and non-Christian friends, both white and black, minority and non-minority. Then we urge you to vote and, yes, please vote your conscience.

You may get tired of me saying this, but as Believers, we are to be seen not as Republican nor as Democrats, but as "Monarchists"...that is, we serve a reigning King, Jesus Christ. That means that you should ask HIM how you should vote each time an election rolls around.

We don't want to be seen as telling you how YOU must vote...rather, we are telling you how some are voting. Why? Because, as you will read in this article, Marriage is a pivotal issue in this election...almost more than any other issue.

Please forward this to as many people as possible. We've provided a form below for you to do just that!

This a very encouraging development. Maybe this explains some of Kerry's low "Black" support numbers.

Welcome, Bishop.

You chose a man who respects God, and knows that all things come from Him.
The other guy thinks he is God.

The gay marriage issue is looming large in the black church as well. And can truly committed Christians be unconcerned about the rising tide of Islamic fascism?

[My2Cents]

This is the REAL Rev. Jackson.

[TaxachusettsMan]

Could we please make Bishop Harry Jackson an honorary CATHOLIC bishop at least through the election? Just to bolster up our good guys and balance off our Mitred Kerryites?

[RockinRight]

A Black Pastor supporting W? In DC of all places?

Kerry is toast.

[brwnsuga]

I am a Black Christian female. I know plenty of Black people who will be voting for Bush on Nov 2. I really believe that there will be about 11% of us voting Republican this time around. I have a Bush/ Cheney '04 sign in my yard and on my car and I am not ashamed!

Pastor V. Michelle Jackson, Bishop Jackson's wife, and mother of his two daughters might have a slight problem with that.

I saw a poll yesterday that said President Bush could get as much as 25% of the Black vote.

I think many people are seeing through the lies told about our President. The man has been viscously attacked by the left in this country and he has never responded in kind. The horrible things Al Sharpton said about President Bush and when the President spoke to the Urban League he shook Al Sharpton's hand and treated him respectfully. I'm not sure I could have done same under the circumstances

Bishop Jackson was the only black pastor they could get to go on tv against Farrakhan and the Million Man March.

Huntington, WVUSA - A visit to West Virginia by Democratic Presidential Candidate John Kerry has been put on hold.

Kerry was scheduled to attended services at the Apostolic Christ Cathedral in Guyandotte on Sunday.

West Virginia Senators Robert C. Byrd and Jay Rockefeller were to attend with Kerry.

The church pastor, Reverend E. S. Harper, said they were not welcome if they planned to discuss politics during the service.

The Kerry campaign says the church issue did not affect the decision to cancel the trip.




I wish that more of our clergy would stop allowing themselves to be used by the Democrats. Seems like the only time you see a white Democrat in a Black church is during election time.

The church pastor, Reverend E. S. Harper, said they were not welcome if they planned to discuss politics during the service.

The really amazing thing about this, is that the pastor is a friend of Byrd...and the congregation presured Pastor Harper to put a sock in it; THEY didn't want their church and themselves to be political pawns.

This story was spun to sound like the "brave pastor" was making a stand, when he was the one all for it, until it looked like it might cost him his job.

Kerry isn't coming because the people don't want him!

[brwnsuga]

Well, at least the the congregation have brains. We'll have to pray for Rev. Harper to come around. :-)

[ApplegateRanch]

Amen!
