The Old Black Church

Church once again and for the record, I support a woman's right to select, pick, choose what's best for her and her family. In my opinion, this is yet, another reason to admire Amanda Gorman for her support of women's rights. Amanda Gorman, the nation's first-ever youth poet laureate who gained national acclaim at President Joe Biden's inauguration, will recite an original poem before Super Bowl LV, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell says. But of course, there's some pushback from the white conservatives community who have a problem with the NFL in picking Amanda Gorman because of her support for women's rights. Amanda Gorman has always used the art of poetry to speak on issues such as race, feminism, and oppression. Gorman recently made news by reciting her original poem “The Hill We Climb” at the presidential inauguration of Joe Biden, becoming the youngest known inaugural poet in history. And in 2019, she demonstrated her commitment to poetry as activism in

Church, I've been blogging now for over ten years.....there's not a mainstream preacher/pastor/teacher black or white who has not come across my keyboard at one time or another.....and one of those men of God is Archbishop E. Bernard Jordan ...now this post is about the title caption and the comments I read on Larry Reid Live Facebook Page.   Just a little background on Archbishop E. Bernard Jordan who was only 15 when he first heard from God in a dream. Bishop Jordan was raised in a denomination, the Disciples of Christ, that didn't believe the gifts of the Holy Spirit were valid for our time. Now, I grew up in the construct of the black church, where I was taught through the Scriptures that warn us to beware of preachers who appeal to our desire for personal gain and prosperity, made it hard for me to embrace the teaching of Bishop Jordan.  In my humble and honest opinion as a born-again Christian who loves Jesus Christ, I've viewed for years Archbishop E. Bernard Jor

 Church in this ZOOM video Bishop Noel Jones keeps it real. If the virus was revealed to the prophets or the prophetic body of Christ then they would be on one accord with the churches around the world that believe in God to pray and stop the epidemic from happening. Sometimes things are not revealed because the Body of Christ is not in alignment with God and He is trying to get our eyes/focus back on Him. I don’t care how long we’ve been saved or how well we know the Word of God, and with all of the voices we hear in the Body of Christ, particularly prophetic voices, why didn’t they prophesy this pandemic?  Bishop Jones explain what the prophetic mean.  It starts to get real at 2:19:19

Church he’s going to learn the hard way that you can’t put on a big production without making sure everything is legit. In my opinion, Kanye West Sunday service was not church. It's performance art at best. And he clearly didn't have volunteers so he had to hire people. I remember seeing online one production he had where folks were walking on water, so this doesn't surprise me at all, matter of fact it reminds me of what happened at one of his fashion shows a few years back when the models were fainting from the heat. Haha, and people wonder why he's mesmerized by Trump.     He's in trouble for 'mistreating and failing to pay up to 1,000 workers at his extravagant Sunday Service shows'.

Church the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, no longer restricted by the previous administration, issued an extensive federal public health order late Friday requiring all individuals to wear masks over their mouth and nose on nearly all forms of public transportation and private ride-sharing services—and makes refusal to wear a face-covering a violation of federal law. Should have been done a year ago 🙄 would have saved some lives.  Posted by Forbes on  Saturday, January 30, 2021

Church Black Lives Matter started online over 7 years ago.  Today, they hold the largest social movement in global history. And today, they have been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. People around the world are waking up, no one is free until all Black folks are free. And this call for better isn't one that just lives in our country. This is a global call: for racial justice and an end to economic injustice, environmental racism, and white supremacy. Thanks to Norwegian MP Petter Eide for nominating them, for seeing that their call to action is one rooted in justice, love, and dignity.  The Black Lives Matter movement has been nominated for a 2021 Nobel Peace Prize.

Church God bless Bishop Noel Jones. I've never been a fan of the Bishop teaching but I do respect what he said in the clip posted below, in which Bishop Jones deals with the prophetic, and he breaks down in tears because the prophets didn't see the pandemic coming yet they call themselves prophets. Obama saw it, scientists saw it, other world prominent people saw it but the prophets never did. God brings nothing on us unaware, scientists have been telling us for years about a pandemic coming. President Obama even spoke about it. If we keep going down these dark holes of conspiracy theories, we will not be prepared for the next disease. God is science, and science is God. I learned that as I studied God's word.  There are scientists now finding new, diseases, and they are letting us know now that we can contain them. Remember God brings nothing on us unaware. So I know God is always talking to us because he loves us just that much. God Bless you, Bishop Noel Jones.   

Church some saints are saying that Pastor Gino Jennings is a true man of God and he's a pit bull preacher, who tells the truth like it is by using the Bible scriptures for everything he said. He is not part of politics and preaching the whole Bible. No topic is off-limits. He exposed the false prophecies. This pastor is the only pastor in the USA that does not preach a prosperity gospel. He preaches on topics other pastors would think it’s controversial. In the church, people actually dress modestly. He is filled with the Holy Spirit and boldness. We are living in the last days and that’s the kind of message I like to hear. I m beyond sick and to hear the blessed me and prosperity lukewarm message from pastors.  

  Church another legend has gone home. Miss Cicely Tyson, you have been a huge inspiration for us all. Job well done. Rest in peace Queen. If I live to be a 96-year-old legend in my right mind and good health, I hope no one mourns the death of my body, but instead celebrate my life.  

Church I like Tyler Perry and in my book, he can do no wrong, he has a proven track record of doing for and loving on the black community.  I do understand what he's attempting to do here.  It's been reported that Tyler Perry received both doses of the COVID-19 vaccination and decided to use the experience to help inform those who remain skeptical, especially those within the black community. During an interview, Perry voiced his concern with the black church and how he's extremely disappointed with the church, to the point it is almost heartbreaking … "it is heartbreaking on so many levels,” said Perry, “looking at the church and what it means to be a church to be there for the people.  It means having the doors open. It means feeding the people. It means getting COVID testing. It means getting the vaccine done at the church. “Being the church means all of those things. And if a church is not stepping up to meeting those needs, then what good are you?” Perry added. “T

Church articles like these are only true to white racists that want to make themselves feel better about their racist past and present. They seek out black conservatives like Apostle Paula Price who they know they can use for their purpose. She's a big Trump supporter who also has said that Jesus told her that Trump would win this time also. She did a video doubling down and trying to explain why she refuses to apologize for getting it wrong. Articles like these don't reflect the needs of the Black community in any way, nor does it depict our ideas. This is racist trash and Charism and The Christian Post should be ashamed to put such a thing out for their base to eat up. Political religionism shows its ugly head again. ( Video here of her support for Trump )

Church some Masonic Lodge members online are trying to figure out who in the HECK gave Whoopi Goldberg permission to wear their emblem? I'm guessing it was her wardrobe dept. On The View yesterday Whoopi Goldberg was spotted wearing a Masonic sweater, that didn't go over well with fraternity members. The online fight has called for the sweater seller to come clean. The seller says he is trying to figure out where the h*ll she got it from. He is a small business owner and some people seem to think he gave it to her??? He's hoping it doesn't hurt his business. Regardless of her intentions, Masonic regalia is not a fashion statement that she or anyone else who is not entitled to can wear. The public might consider that if she can do it they can too and you wind up with impostors misrepresenting the Fraternal Order. Some members are saying she's not a member so she has no reason to wear the sweater. It’s the same as any other fraternal organization. If you didn’t work

  Church the pastors at Hillsong Church were anything but humble servants, that's according to former members.  As the Australia-based institution continues to come under fire for allegations of “slave labor” and homophobia, ex-congregants and staff are now claiming that pastors used tithe money to help fuel their decadent lifestyles. At Hillsong NYC, many pastors frequently splurged on fancy restaurant meals, designer clothes, and weekly manicures while living in the same Kent Avenue Williamsburg high-rise and zipping around the neighborhood on ATVs, disgusted former members told The Post.    Tithe money funded Hillsong pastors’ luxury lifestyles: Former members Posted by Newsroom Antigua on  Tuesday, January 26, 2021

Church these racist white evangelicals are off the chain. This guy Charlie Kirk is followed and supported by a lot of white evangelicals who embrace his views.  My question why is Charlie Kirk allowed to speak in any church? Why is there an American flag graphic as a backdrop in a church? What kind of church is that? Trump advocate Charlie Kirk tells right-wing pastor Jack Hibbs of Calvary Chapel Chino church that rapper Lecrae "should never be allowed" to perform at a Christian church again because he campaigned for pro-choice Dem Sen. Raphael Warnock. I should note Lecrae was among performers at "get out the early vote" rally and concert with Warnock and Ossoff, in December. Lecrae encouraged attendees to vote. He didn't tell them who to vote for. So Kirk's saying Lecrae "campaigned" for Warnock is a lie. White Christian [Supremacy] Nationalism is another religion that preaches another gospel. I’m fairly confident that Lecrae, being an ac

Church over the past four years, white conservative evangelicals have compared Donald Trump to King Cyrus, Queen Esther, Daniel, David, and Sampson. And now they have a biblical character for vice-president Kamala Harris: Jezebel . For those unfamiliar with this biblical character, she appears in the books of Kings and is referenced in the book of Revelation.   The Southern Baptist Convention already had a problem with Black pastors because its six seminary presidents have launched a battle against Critical Race Theory. Then an East Texas SBC pastor added to the consternation Jan. 22 by calling Vice President Kamala Harris a “Jezebel.” Calling a Black woman “Jezebel” is a racist trope documented by the Jim Crow Museum of Racist Memorabilia at Ferris State University . It has roots in slavery and the perceived sexual promiscuity of Black women compared to white women. Some evangelicals called VP @KamalaHarris #Jezebel while others stood up against such. Who was Jezebel? Should our

Church Jesus let us know, that He is the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the FATHER except through Him. Did Jesus ever say that He was the only way to heaven? If HE never said it then why do so many Christians support the idea?   Anyhow, Steve Harvey Internationally recognized comedian Steven Harvey stunned many of his Christian fans after he revealed that he believes there’s more than one way to Heaven. On Saturday, Harvey posted a video on his official YouTube channel titled “How Steve Harvey Prays” that shows the “Family Feud” host at Abu Dhabi’s Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in the United Arab Emirates, a majority Muslim Persian Gulf nation where Islam is the official religion. While Christian expatriates in the UAE are allowed to worship in private, they are prohibited by law from praying in public or evangelizing.  "There are many ways to serve GOD and keep your faith". "My trip to The Emirates always reminds me how we can live in harmony and in the much-

Church Pastor John Gray Ministries' Relentless Church of Greenville, South Carolina, has filed a court motion last week seeking the enforcement of a private agreement reached last year with Ron Carpenter Jr's Redemption. The agreement settled an ongoing property rights dispute, asserting that Redemption has not upheld its end of the deal. An attorney for Relentless declined to disclose exactly what the issue is, saying only that the church is asking Redemption to comply with the terms of the agreement,. Meanwhile, Gray, who had been on sabbatical after numerous reports of infidelity, has returned to preaching at his church.  Two South Carolina megachurches, with pastors with apparent mega-salaries, are once again battling each other in the...

Church the flaming pink hair false prophetess Kat Kerr, who's a resident of Jacksonville, Fla has really gone off the deep end. The foolishness she's yelling about in the clip is after the swearing-in of Joe Biden. She claims that God “allegedly” talking through her about how He feels about the election, and He sounds like He’s pissed off.  So sad this is the same mentality that the Proud Boys, Wolverines, QAnon, Boogaloos, KKK, and half of the white evangelicals have. They all had the same lying spirits talking to them. They all wanted Trump as president for a second term. Kenneth Copeland laughed like an evil spirit was upon him. They were all waiting for God to reverse the outcome with ex VP Pence stopping the win of President Biden. Mr. Pence had no authority to change votes. But God did speak. That's why we have a new President. God protect President Biden. I pray they aren't reprobates. May God have mercy.  What do you all think? "Prophetess" Kat Kerr sp

Church it's looking like Pastor John MacArthur has returned to the pulpit at Grace Community Church after about a month-long absence that began in the midst of an alleged COVID-19 outbreak at the church. The 81-year-old pastor apparently is recovering from an illness but did not specify the nature of that illness. At the beginning of the service Sunday, MacArthur greeted the congregation. After struggling to clear his throat and catch his breath, MacArthur pointed to his chest and said, “It’s in there still, so, you’re going to get it, later this morning.”   “MacArthur had last preached at Grace on December 20.

Church a Jackson pastor died from COVID-19 complications on Saturday morning. New Canney Creek Missionary Baptist Church confirmed their pastor for 27 years, Ernest Slaughter, has died. His wife, First Lady Beatrice Slaughter, said her husband had a great love for God and His word. “Pastor Slaughter loved to preach God’s word. It didn’t matter where or when you asked him to be on a program he was coming,” Beatrice said. “Pastor Slaughter was not only a preacher, [but he was also] an activist, businessman, and previously ran for city council.” Story Here So many churches still having full-fledged services. Now I don’t know if this was the case here or not. But so many are being careless and putting their congregation and themselves life at risk. I believe in faith and the healing power of God through Jesus Christ.  But the church has been so disappointing over the last couple of years.

Church I have a question why is this information important to the body of Christ? Larry King was admitted to the hospital and put on a ventilator the first part of the new year, plus it was all over the news. Everyone knows once you’re put on a ventilator, your chances of making it off are slim to none, especially if you’re old as Larry King and have underlying health conditions. Anyhow, on January 4,2021 Prophet Brian Carn claims in one of his lives that this will be the sign that this is the year of scandal— and that he sees a famous talk show host(Larry King) that is getting ready to die this year. Low and behold, we wake up today and legendary talk show host, Larry King, has died at the age of 87.  What Yall Think?   

Church the COVID-19 vaccine has many of us grappling for answers. With approximately 40% of Americans say they will not take the COVID-19 vaccine and many express concerns about possible side effects. In an effort to better inform and enlighten the public about the COVID-19 vaccine, Bishop T.D. Jakes has brought together several of the world’s leading coronavirus experts, including Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation’s top infectious disease official, for a panel discussion titled Conversations with America: Understanding the COVID-19 Vaccine. Conversations with America is a semi-regular, data-driven forum developed by Jakes to help Americans navigate difficult discussions. ( You Can Read About It Here ) 

Church this idiot waited till January 20th, 2021 to say America is officially in rebellion to God? That’s been the case for a long time...this is so disappointing because folks like MacArthur will uphold white supremacy, uphold the idea that they are "true Christians" not seeing the fact that they are perpetuating an unjust and uncaring system because it doesn't touch them. How can they see Trump as a moral counterweight yet be blind to his lies, subterfuge, and lack of accountability? To be Republican is no longer to have conservative values but to join in an idea that they are the gatekeepers to America and Christianity while we are just savages in need of their gentle white savior complex. It's sickening because they have become like Pharisees.

Church Bishop J. Drew Sheard with Greater Emmanuel Institutional Church of God in Christ said the recent news of former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick being released from prison is good news.“I’m so happy, as his pastor, to be able to say that he developed a sincere relationship with the Lord. He’s a minister now. He was leading worship services in the prison,” Sheard said of Kwame. In 2013, Kilpatrick was sentenced to 28 years in federal prison after he was convicted of racketeering, mail fraud, wire fraud, and more charges. “I always thought his sentence was extremely too harsh, extremely too long,” Sheard said.  ( You can read about it here )Several well-known pastors, like Bishop Sheard, Bishop T.D.

Church this False Prophet Marcus Rogers is no stranger to this blog( You Can Read About It Here ) He told people that God told him that Trump would win the election... The Inauguration determined that that was a lie.

How? He’s lucky this isn’t the old testament because you know what happens when a prophecy didn't come true then they stone you a lot of these so-called Prophets would stay quiet if those rules still apply.

Church Bishop Demetrius Sinegal ruffled some feathers with the below Facebook post. We have seen a godless adulterer, liar, and grifter leave the white house and be replaced with a practicing Christian, but folks are angry because Biden appointed a transgender to a role that they are qualified for. On Monday President-elect Joe Biden had tapped Pennsylvania Health Secretary Rachel Levine to be his assistant secretary of health, leaving her poised to become the first openly transgender federal official to be confirmed by the U.S. Senate. A graduate of Harvard and of Tulane Medical School, Levine is president of the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials. She's written in the past on the opioid crisis, medical marijuana, adolescent medicine, eating disorders, and LGBTQ medicine.  I’ve seen countless posts downplaying this by saying “Biden is our President not our pastor...who cares if he appointed...

Church this is an interesting poll, white supremacy evangelical Protestants continue to be most likely to hold favorable views of Trump (62%), similar to the share observed among this group in November (59%). He has lost ground among white Catholics, 39% of whom view him favorably, compared to a slim majority (51%) in November. Four in ten white mainline Protestants (41%) hold favorable views of the outgoing president, which is an increase from 34% in November but not statistically significant.  Christians of color and religiously unaffiliated Americans continue to express low ratings of Trump. Less than one in five Protestants of color (19%) and religiously unaffiliated Americans (19%) view Trump favorably.  In my opinion, America has PTSD because of the abomination of Trump. But even with him gone it won't get better because Americans don't dare admit what we all know is the real problem. White evangelicalism is a cult morphing into a terrorist movement every bit as much as

  Pastor John Gray, thank you so much for this. “May the church function as it was intended.” I love that so much. Thank you!!!! At last, America will be The United States of America. The Biden administration will unite and once again make America great. God bless America. 

  Church today is Inauguration Day, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris take office as president and vice president of the United States. Today, the United States swears in its 46th president. Trump came in lying and he's leaving the same way...lying. As I always tell my kids, how you exit any situation says a lot about you. Always go out with class and elegance and manners. That lands me at my thought,  COVID-19 IS NO JOKE !! One man contracted it, got cured but suffered so much brain damage that he insists he won an election that he lost by almost 8 million votes. Thank you Jesus this mess is gone.   

According to some ‘evangelicals’, ‘pastor’ and ‘others’ they prophesy that the idiot in the White House would win.  I prayed for God’s will to be done and it seems His will aligned with mines. I am extremely thankful the big idiot will be gone. God will never contradict himself. The only word God is obligated to bless is His word. With that been said the God of the Bible didn't tell anyone that trump would be reelected, that's false information they made up and told it to themself.

Church yall who follow this blog already know conman Mike Murdock is no stranger to this blog. ( You can read about him here ) One thing this previous election has taught me, I will never ever trust another word that ever comes out of any of these lying wonders mouths ever again. They have made the idiot in the white house out of an idol, a savior, and we know the word of the lord, “Thou Shall Not have NO OTHER GODS before Me!”- Exodus 20:3 If we haven’t learned anything else, from the previous election, we know now that the Christianity preached in the Western White Church is NOT the same Christianity preached in the Black Church. Every last one of them should be ashamed of themselves that they are making that idiot out to be a God forgetting about the TRUE LIVING GOD that is above EVERY MAN. Chitwood, know Black churches support his ministry, but he proved like Murdock, they have hatred in their heart towards us. Mike Murdock feels that we are unworthy of Trump? What does that mean.

Church so the Governor of Tennessee's own pastor is being removed from the pulpit in part for lying and sharing conspiracy theories about the deadly insurrection on a sitting Congress two weeks ago. The founder of the Grace Chapel Church in Franklin, TN, senior Pastor Steve Berger, touted the disproven claims last Wednesday night in a video watched more than 58,000 times after having witnessed the events unfold at the nation's Capitol. I believe there is a huge burden now on white Christian leaders, especially those who entertained the conspiracies,  and Trump to lead their flock back into the truth.     "Other Tennessee leaders involved Wednesday included Pastor Steve Berger, senior pastor at Grace Chapel in Franklin,...

Church Pastor William Dwight McKissic, Sr. of Cornerstone Baptist Church in Arlington Texas—a vocal critic of racism in Southern Baptist life—announced he plans to “get off the bus” of the Southern Baptists of Texas Convention—and potentially the national Southern Baptist Convention, as well. Pastor  William Dwight McKissic, whom I respect as a leading voice within the SBC, says make no mistake about it, he believes the Bible speaks with supreme authority in every area, including race. Where any racial theory contradicts Scripture, Scripture rules overall! This is applicable to the CSP/SBC CRT kerfuffle. The SBC is openly rejecting the collective wisdom of men like Fred Luter, Tony Evans, Marshal Ausberry, The National African American Fellowship of the SBC, hundreds of African American pastors, and her own African American professors by dismissing our claims that there are beneficial aspects to CRT. For these reasons, we are pulling out of SBTC; and if the CSP/SBC policy is ratified i

Church folks are up in these social media streets, mad as all get out, and calling foul, to a two-hour virtual event features performances from inspirational music artists to celebrate the January 2021 Inaugural of President-Elect Joe Biden and Vice President-Elect Kamala Harris.

BUT, for the last four years, Travis Greene and Chrisette Michelle were dragged for performing at the idiot in the white house inauguration celebration. Can anyone explain this to them? Congratulations Joe and Kamala. I welcome you with open arms.  

  Church this actually happen last night live online. I commend DeMario King Jive for trying to have a platform for different voices. But however, when it takes a turn like this conversation did it's completely disheartening. Especially, when Demario King Jive, I'm sure, had a pure heart, for this particular conversation. This was completely embarrassing to witness. Me, Myself, and I personally would not even waste my time entertaining negro's who support trump. On the other hand, it was sad, that the speakers, could not contain their disdain and emotions and instead of having an educated, respectful commentary, it turned into an unhealthy fruitless mess. DeMario King Jive, screen your guest better, I'm glad that you attempted, to have the conversation, but everybody is not worth the time.
