National Council of Churches: White Christians Must Repent for ‘America's Original Sin' of ‘White Racism'

2018-04-05

[Townhall] On Wednesday, the National Council of Churches (NCC), which claims to represent more than 45 million people of faith across the United States, held a rally on the National Mall in Washington D.C. to mark the 50th anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr.’s assassination by calling on America to "Act To End Racism."

The event featured a huge list of speakers, most of whom were pastors, priests, or leaders of religious organizations, but the founders of Ben and Jerry’s, Hollywood actor Danny Glover, and Black Lives Matter activist DeRay Mckesson also made featured appearances.

However, regardless of the individual speakers or their personal backgrounds, all of them had one resounding message: White Americans are oppressing "black and brown people" through a deliberate system of "white supremacy," and they must repent and seek redemption by taking action to destroy that system.

#15 My wife and I were discussing this and decided that all this white privilege stuff is really just a rehash of "White Man's Burden" Everyone else is so inferior that whites once again must uplift everyone else because they can't do themselves. So once again, the Democrats have found a way to prove to themselves that they are superior and better than everyone else. Because when you look at the core of the Democrat party, you find that deep suited need to enslave others.

#14 The NCC should be thankful the "White Racists" built all those fine Cadillacs they're riding.

#11 Because rjschwarz, they have taken the Bible out of their churches and taught that feeling righteous is religion.

#10 Why do Christian churches seem hell bent on pushing worshipers away?

#9 Repentance for slavery? How about repentance for abortion? Seems like the left/Dems are on the wrong side of both issues.

#8 find a living person involved in slavery

Loads of active slavers in parts of Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. There was a couple in Colorado also, but they were not white and I believe they are now in jail...

#7 If these twits can find a living person involved in slavery, I think that person should be made to repent.

#5 According to wikipedia:
NCC is an ecumenical partnership of 38 Christian faith groups ... representing 40 million.

The list of 38 members on wikipedia:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_National_Council_of_Churches_members

I thank God none of the churches I have fellowshipped with were on this list.

From a young age I have always been suspicious of fellowship groups.
If a group is not focused on Jesus Christ and a literal Bible it is very easy to get caught up into social justice causes like:
equal outcomes rather than equal opportunity, so called living wages for everyone, save the environment (and the world), animal rights, victimhood, guilt of racism (since everyone is prejudiced), can not judge anyone or anything because of of one's own prejudice, proclaim inequality therefore demand reparations for victims.
This is all the false gospel of victimhood.
You are the victim not at fault of your own because someone else is to blame for your oppression.
Anyone who knows Jesus is a victor not a victim.
But these social justice warriors have excluded Jesus.
So I can have no part with them or their causes.
