Christians are to judge actions, behavior, attitudes, etc. but not the individual. So, asking whether someone is a Christian without understanding what it means to be a Christian is moot.
Christians are supposed to be discerning, which involves judgment. Most secular people can't discern between the two. They love to quote "thou shalt not judge" without understanding what it means.
The preacher calling these CEO's "captains" is not that inaccurate, these CEO's control the republican Tea Party like captains. These CEO's decide where the Tea Party protests. When these CEO's want the Tea Party to protest some event, all they do is make a cell phone call.
The Democrats have their CEOs as well. Let's be honest about it.
I think it's a fact, every president since Madison attended that church but I haven't heard anybody kick up a stink about it before now. Right wingers today hate President Obama and love to whine about anything he does and that IS a fact.
I don't recall criticism of the church. It's the pastor's choice of subject matter, and attack on conservatives on Easter, no less, that is the subject of discussion.
And how Godly, to use Easter Service as a means to attack a political side. Jesus would be so proud.... Pastor my ass. What a fraud. But how FITTING for Obama to be at such a service. He fits right in.
Oh this is rich. No the righties would NEVER use Easter as a means to attack a political side...

It was a simple question?
Your belief, and how to practice your faith, is your business...your pathway.
So lets be crystal clear; when others judge our actions, behaviors, and attitudes, they are decerning? correct?
Seems there are two cheeks, one on either side.
What is it called when one claims rights and priveldges, then does not extend those same rights and privelges to others...I cant think of the term?

It seems like its impossible for 0bama to find a church that does not consist of a liberal, and a political partisan for a pastor.
You forgot racist.
