He was preaching some home truths, but many still don't want to hear them.

None so blind as those that won't see
And none so deaf as those won't hear.

This is the truth that I wanted my former church to be open to. I would go havesies with them, but they needed to stop blaming white supremacy for everything.

"he declared "black America has lost its soul" Which upset the 77% of blacks who don't know who their fathers are.

The truth shall set you free. But, you have to be willing to hear and accept it.

Yeah. A funeral is no place for the truth or to face reality. Were Diamond and Silk invited? Clarence Thomas? -sarc

The left can’t respond with conversation, disagreement, discussion, or debate.
If they disagree with something the response is wrath, outrage, anger, or violence.
I don’t blame the lefty sheep. It’s the elite and media who have convinced the sheep that the right is “literally Hitler and nazis”. I would agree that you should not have a conversation with Hitler about disagreements.

As he wended his way through the need for more African Americans to return to church and more men to return to their families, the heat turned up online, with younger people declaring rhetoric such as that of Williams is why they left their churches to begin with.True statements, all. But they give snowflakes butthurt.

Williams, who also eulogized Franklin's father, minister, adulterer, child molester, absentee father,
and civil rights activist C.L. Franklin, 34 years ago ...When people deliberately ignore evil personal behavior in their leaders, everyone tends to get the idea that it just doesn't matter. "It's all between consenting adults," etc., if you consider 12 adult. Finally, everyone's enraged by those who point out the elephant in the room.

We need more pastors like this to create a conservative fire wall against our pagan pantheist society.

The lefty sheep came to be seen.
They are all to young to claim they were with Martin but can now claim “I was there for Aretha”.
The fire and brimstone was telling to a crowd that worship themselves and the message handed down by the plantation massas.

Now how long will it take for the snowflakes to begin mustering their string of floozies to begin making bogus claims of sin. Like with Herman Cain.
I pray for his protection.

Manners of any race do not race to Twitter or Facebook to editorialize an eulogy from a funeral. It's supposed to be a pensive time.
Self fulfilling prophecy, making the eulogy spot on.

It appears he disregarded the memo to be completely PC-correct. Refreshing.

So what percentage of the "igniters" does anyone suppose are caucasians being "helpful?" On social media you can't swing a USB device by the tail without hitting some whiter than a frog's belly SJW who instantly goes into self-loathing wannabee and/or reparations-with-interest rage boy* mode.

*Or rage girl. Or rage hermaphrodite. Or rage fictional gender construct. Rage, rage, rage... it's all the rage and all about the rage.

Christ showed us the “right place & time” is when the sinners are present. He overturned their tables and whipped them that traded in the temple square. We are being shown again how’s it is proper done. Praise the Lord God for giving this world Rev. Williams!
