02082 – Telling the Truth about Racism

There’s something unholy, unrighteous that happens when you combine this concept of whiteness and white supremacy with Christianity…

In the Bible it says any addition to the Gospels negates the Gospels–it’s no longer the Gospel. When you add this gospel of nationalism to Christianity–to the Gospel of Jesus Christ–it’s no longer recognizable as the faith of the founder of Christianity…

If we care about our churches and if we care about our country, we can’t be too cowardly and too self-interested to really look at our history honestly–that’s the only way to help…

You can’t actually repent and believe the Gospel unless you’ve told the truth about who you are and why you need a Savior. In a similar way, unless we tell the truth about this nation when it comes to race and Christianity, there’s not going to be any repentance, there’s not going to be any repair, and there’s not going to be any reconciliation.
