James Talarico Says Black Churches Understand Jesus Better than White Churches

[Dragonlady]

Why yes, dear. Democrat values of shielding illegal alien rapists, murderers and child molesters are obviously inline with the teachings of Jesus.

How nice that we have pastor Creepy to lecture us on what Jesus taught.

You handle snakes at your congregation services, right?

When you have to lie to refute a post, you simply look stupid and pathetic, Hollie.

When you deny asylum to refugees, and lock up children in filthy conditions, you are not behaving according to either the law or Jesus teachings, so can the bullshit. Jesus was VERY clear on that score, Hollie.

Matthew 25:

“41. Then the King will turn to those on the left and say, ‘Away with you, you cursed ones, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his demons. 42. For I was hungry, and you didn’t feed me. I was thirsty, and you didn’t give me a drink. 43. I was a stranger, and you didn’t invite me into your home. I was naked, and you didn’t give me clothing. I was sick and in prison, and you didn’t visit me.’

44. “Then they will reply, ‘Lord, when did we ever see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and not help you?’

45. “And he will answer, ‘I tell you the truth, when you refused to help the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were refusing to help me.’

46. “And they will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous will go into eternal life.”

Your frantic tirades are funny. So lecture us with cut and paste Bible versus about the democrat’s aiding and abetting of child sex trafficking

Make Jesus proud.

It’s good to horde money over what jesus said about the poor and your neighbors.

The "prosperity gospel". Pastors with private jets and Rolls Royces. Pedo priests. Mega mansions.

What we see in these churches explains how they could fall for Trump. They're desperate and just want to believe in something, so they'll put up with anything and make excuses for it.

They have perverted a world religion. Sincere Christians everywhere are horrified.

I see. Your conspiracy theory is that the Swaggerts,Osteens and Bakkers, et al were all corrupted by Trump.

The reality is that your mental illness needs a focus and your Trump worship is that conduit.

Where do democrats find these people? Talarico’s comments read as pretty darn racist™.

It’s understandable that Talarico, as a democrat wants to pander to blacks but I don’t think he understands that such slimy tactics have a way of alienating not just the target audience but a much wider audience.

Talarico Says Black Churches Understand Jesus Better than White Churches

Texas Democrat U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico said many white churches do not reflect the Jesus described in the Gospels and that black churches have a "deeper and more accurate" understanding of what it means to follow Jesus.

Texas Democrat U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico said many white churches do not reflect the Jesus described in the Gospels and argued that black churches have a “deeper and more accurate” understanding of what it means to follow Jesus.

Speaking on the September 2024 podcast titled “Holy Conversation: Faith and Politics,” Talarico said too many white churches focus on the afterlife instead of on “freeing the oppressed and healing the sick and feeding the hungry.”

Black churches are more about singing and dancing, than religion. Occasionally a black preacher wearing a Rolex yells at the crowed to donate more money. Not much religion going on though.

 

[Rambunctious]

Many "white churches" have aggressively sold their soul to a man who is essentially the opposite of the Jesus Christ they pretend to follow. It has damaged families and relationships. It has stripped the church of any claims it may have still had to "morality". Christianity has been set back a long way due to what it has done.

So I guess any criticism is worth at least considering.

Thank you

You are stating exactly what Talarico is speaking out against.

Fear mongering and spreading hate about those seeking a better life.
Something Jesus despised

And as a comfy agnostic, I have no doubt that I live my life closer to the teachings of Christ than a Trumpster does.

Neither your agreement nor your approval are required.

Most black churches are very poor.
They look at their churches as a place to celebrate Jesus. Song and dance in praise of Jesus is how they celebrate.

Beats dull white churches

Oh sure you do.... However Church is no prerequisite for entering the kingdom of God... Church is to bring worshipers closer together and to hear the words and message of God....
Some people need that and others do not... but as a self proclaimed non believer I would recommend that you attend a few Sundays.... Maybe you can shake some of that MAGA hate you have in your soul....

Wow. That's quite racist.

Dissing Christians is all the latest rage with the loons lately

Your’re welcome, dear. Your hero, little Jimmy is “a Christian who hates Christianity”

What an inspiring message about “seeking a better life”. You and little Jimmy make Jesus so proud.

There you go, JUDGING again
Democrats tell us that's wrong -- UNLESS THEYRE DOING IT

 

[Hollie]

Black Churches have always understood Jesus better than White Churches

Church is a celebration of Jesus with singing and dancing and people shouting out praise. People come out happy enjoying the service.

White churches are dull events centered around the pastor. Church is an obligation not a celebration

I’m sure I speak on behalf of all christians, as you presume to do, when accepting that singing, dancing and shouting is the correct way to understand Jesus.

I'm skeptical of a politician claiming an implicit endorsement.

I don't think Jesus is registered to vote in Texas and if He wants to endorse Paxton or Talarico he's going to have to do it himself.
