He did not denounce men and women publically for their sins for his own agenda, but sought to bring them to a merciful and forgiving God through repentance. What are our motives for denouncing our political leaders. Who here has prayed for the strengthening of Obama and McCain's Christian character -who here prayers for genuine salvation and revival of their political leaders... or are we busy praying against them.This is why I think this kind of topic is inappropriate -I'm not going to claim any kind of prophetic knowledge, but generally these kind of things lack grace and prayer. Here's a question to you... when is the last time you went to Washington DC in camel skins and called men and women to repent and be baptized. If you want to claim John's mantel, live as John did.

My last comment came off as self righteous. I am not judging you Preach, or anyone else on this thread. I just don't think it has any place on SermonIndex. I believe that a moderator should be quickly removing these political topics.

Well as far as I am aware, the official policy of this forum is that there is zero tolerance for political threads or topics. It is not my own opinion, it's not about angle.
I started this thread. I am black. This radio show actually has little to do with Obama it more so has to do with reality that not only affects the black community, but in due time will prevail in the white community as well. Key topics of abortion, fatherless families, the church not being the voice it ought to be (especially the preachers), etc. As well, it was exciting to listen to this brother Jesse Lee Peterson because I know of no black preacher who seems to be as real as he has been. This is well worth the listen to.
