Rev. Peterson: Black Preachers Are Worshiping The Wrong Messiah!
There shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies 2 Peter 2:1
With the November 4 election of Barack Obama, black preachers have been celebrating across the country. Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson, Founder and President of BOND Action, Inc. is rebuking these black preachers for their part in electing the most left-wing presidential candidate in American history:
Ninety-six percent of black voters supported Barack Obama and the majority of these voters were influenced by black preachers to put race ahead of their country and their faith, said Rev. Peterson. How can ministers who are supposed to lead their flock to Jesus Christ instead lead them to a socialist like Obama? The truth is that most black ministers dont have a real relationship with God and they are leading their congregations to hell. These blind leaders helped elect their black Messiah. This Messiah happens to be the most left-wing member of the U.S. Senate, said Rev. Peterson.
Heres where president-elect Obama stands on key issues:
Believes in abortion on demand (virtually under any circumstance), and has told Planned Parenthood that sex-ed for kindergartners is the right thing to do (as long as it's age appropriate);
Has promised to repeal the federal Defense of Marriage Act and would allow homosexual marriages to be made legal in all 50 states;
Would appoint far left activist judges whod pervert and misinterpret the U.S. Constitution;
Has pledged to dismantle Dont Ask, Dont Tell in the military. Supports open homosexuality, bisexuality, and transexuality in all military branches, barracks and shower facilities.
This is what influential black ministers said after the Obama election victory:
Bishop T.D. Jakes of The Potters House church said that Sen. Barack Obamas campaign encouraged, validated and gave inspiration to not only the people of the United States of America, but to the people of our world.
At Harlems Abyssinian Baptist Church, Rev. Calvin Butts invited his congregation to stand up and give God praise for the election. Several hundred churchgoers rose as one and cheered, Yes we can! Yes we can!
Grammy-winning gospel singer, Rev. Shirley Caesar-Williams said, Too long weve been at the bottom of the totem pole, but he [Obama] has vindicated us, hallelujah.
Rev. John L. Lambert, Bethel AME Church in Indianapolis, If ever there was an answer to who cometh to our help? that was the answer
Look at what God has done.
At Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, Rev. Otis Moss, III, said history would note that Trinity was the holy place where God stirred a young mans soul and put him on the path to the presidency.
Rev. Peterson added: For the past eighteen years Ive said that most black preachers are not called by God, but instead are called by their mammas. If there was ever a time that this was the case, that time is now. In order for black Americans to turn around, they must drop their anger, and find the truth within themselves, not from corrupt, racist preachers or from a false black Messiah.

I have admired Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson for quite some time.
I am white and have had a dream that I might someday get the opportunity to attend service at a southern black church..... NOT ANYMORE.
After this past years revelations of this twisted, sick and ignorant group of folks, I wouldnt get within 5 miles of one of these hate houses. I would like to attend a service from Rev. Peterson, but I would still want to be armed.
While I will do my best to keep from joining the ranks of the racist crowd, I no longer trust the black community ( 90% of them have earned this rebuke), and I doubt that I ever will. Of course, I am disgusted with 53% of the voting public regardless of their race.

You said it: “so-called” (but by whom?)
You said it: “so-called” (but by whom?)
But So-Called by whom?
Thanks TC
Don’t despair, you can attend Rev. Peterson’s Sunday Services in Los Angeles if you live around here or pass through! 10:30 am all are welcome! Watch them on the website. They are fun and uplifting and you don’t realize what happened to you but you know you have been in a holy place when you leave.
Good afternoon blackie.

Thank you, but I haven’t visited the LA area for over 30 years, and no offense intended, I doubt that I ever will. I like you beaches, but that’s about it. ;>)
If he broadcasts his service on his website, I’ll check it out, but I suspect it wont be the same as being there in person.
Thanks again....
i think I forgot to ping you..
LOL
That sounds about right.
Thanks for that. Sadly true.
I'll say it again: the Black Church is American Protestantism's Armenian Church.
The Armenian Church ceased centuries ago to be a missionary church and became nothing more than an adjunct of Armenian ethnic identity. After the massacres of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries decimated the Church what little theology that remained in it was snuffed out to be replaced by ethnic (often Leftist) political activism. Most Armenians do indeed seem to be on the Left.
The American Black Church was originally a real church, but the injustices Blacks suffered caused it to cease being a true church and to become, like the Armenian Church, merely an adjunct of ethnic identity. No telling how long ago this happened, either.
The Armenian Church has a liturgy that is the single most beautiful thing I have ever yet experienced in this life--an ancient liturgy in Ancient Church Armenian, heart-rendingly beautiful chants and music--yet there is no theology there.
The "liturgy" of the American Black Church is a "fundamentalist" one (lots of shouting, sweating, bellowing, Bible-banging, etc.), but the Black Church is obviously as devoid of theology as the Armenian Church.
Both are nothing more than ethnic identity clubs headed by militant lefties who don't really believe anything.
That's my opinion, harsh as it is.
Don't expect to see it get better, cause that ain't the way the that chapter (Bible) ends. Oh... but it does get better later on. I think that this infatuation with Obama will settle down, given time.
