Hmmm...sort of like our own pastor who says if you don't get in and back his "pupose driven" program, you should leave...

Foxnews has this story in their "half-hour" headlines.

All the preacher is doing is connecting truth to reality. So no problemo here. Love to see more of it. Not everyone has to agree but they should at least have choices. We need more diversity after all.

I wonder how accurately this is being reported.You make a very good point. If the story is accurate, the preacher is wrong and needs to be relieved.

I guess he figures that Democrats can't be saved, and they have been "turned over to a reprobate mind"?
To: kingattax
That's pretty extreme. Even my pastor wouldn't say that.
To: kingattax
If the preacher owns the building and everything is in his name, there's nothing anyone can do about it, either.
To: sionnsar
Accuracy? I doubt there's any--there's not "excommunication" in Baptist Churches, no authority to forbid communiun, although ministers run people off every day.

This Pastor is totally out of line. If he wants to start a PAC he should do so, but the Church is for worshiping God, not man.

Truth ro reality? You must be kidding. What he's doing is tying God to a political party. It doesn't matter if your Dem, Repub, Ind or whatever. This doesn't belong in church.

Already, the Reverend Chan Chandler has ex-communicated nine members of East Waynesville Baptist Church FYI
To: Mamzelle
im sure "excommunicate" is the AP's way to describe what happened and is not Baptist doctrinal practice.
To: kingattax
Well, it is hard to disagree with the Pastor.....just kidding....sounds like there maybe more to this story than what is being reported.
Sounds like a bunch of disgruntled Democrats who didn't like the preaching about one topic or another.

Amen. Christ hung out with a tax collector and prostitute. Those who most have need of him and his message are liberals.
