When Glenn Beck told listeners of his radio show on March 2 that they should "run as fast as you can" from any church that preached "social or economic justice" because those were code words for Communism and Nazism, he probably thought he was tweaking a few crunchy religious liberals who didn't listen to the show anyway. Instead he managed to outrage Christians in most mainline Protestant denominations, African-American congregations, Hispanic churches, and Catholics...

Don’t fall for this Time Magazine B.S. Jesus didn’t teach that Cesar should be given even more power.

Dear confused Time, Jesus was a social engineer like Michael Moore is a fitness instructor. Jesus taught people to become “Christ Like” in their deeds and soul. He was not a community organizer but a spiritual guide. He spoke to individuals, not neighborhoods and nations. Please stop trying to find some way to scold Christians. Either you don’t know what you are talking about, or you do and you are attempting to mislead people. Jesus, unlike Mohammed, never attempted to become a secular leader. Please reframe from opining on things you don’t understand.

Beck is right here. Social Justice is Marxist/Progressive codeword-language. Jesus told us as INDIVIDUALS to help out our neighbor. But, that decision is up the individual. Social Justice is about gov't-mandated income redistribution and highway robbery.

By the way, what is a “progressive evangelical.” Is that like a Marxist Capitalist?

“Social Justice” is the new phrase for “Liberation Theocracy”. Which is at its core Communist.

Funny, he may be wrong about many things, but he is correct this time. These HAVE become code words for the one world church/Humanism/Socialism triumverate. The preaching along these lines justified many in these churches to vote for Obama and his ilk “to better care for the environment and the needy.”

I am with Glenn Beck on this one- a few years back when I had to do a lot of driving for work, I notice MANY church bingo halls with the message “Share The Wealth”

I asked one of them what this was all about - they had no idea it was a socialist slogan

I asked WHOSE wealth they wanted to share- his answer implied he meant it to mean “Share YOUR wealth” (which is OK) rather than “share THE weatlh” (which is very very different)

I asked him where he got the idea to post that- and he said they were told by some higher church authority (I dont remember which)

This happend so often I almost made a POST here are Free Republic about it- with photographs of AT LEAST 7 of the exact same “Share The Wealth” signs on different churches.

So Time Magazine is for government spending in the name of Christ when it is Obamacare being sold this way?

I cannot be forced to tithe to Obama’s brand of Christianity. THAT is a violation of the separation of church and state we hear so much about.

This is an obvious attempt at divide and conquer. I hope no one here is dumb enough to fall for it. There is no one better than Glenn Beck at exposing the communist revolutionary obamanation administration.

Whether the Mormon Jesus is the one I worship is beside the point here. Fact is that those who preach the social gospel have indeed jumped the shark. I know they want the destruction of my God given country and its history. Period end of story

“Social Gospel” Christians are confused as to the proper role of government in the carrying out of ones Christian duty.

Liberal religious Christians think their Christian duty and obligation to the poor is fulfilled by their ideological support of Government policies to support (and perpetuate) poverty.

Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's, but render unto the Lord that which is the Lord's.

Liberal Christians like to read that as...

Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's, and Caesar will render unto the Lord on your behalf.

Woe to those who when asked “and what did you do to succor the least among us?” at the gates of Heaven can only reply; “I supported public policies and voted for candidates who were for government programs to help the poor.”
