An Alabama pastor is claiming he was fired from his post at his church because he invited black children to attend its Vacation Bible School, WTOK reports.
Pastor Jonathan Greer told the station he was unanimously voted out Sunday, and the deacon of Mt. Sterling Baptist Church in Butler told him he couldn’t invite black churchgoers.
“There was push-back about the types of children that we were bringing in,” Greer told the station. “And I was asked to not invite black children to the VBS.”
A deacon from the church told WTOK that Greer’s firing was not because of race but because Greer didn’t work with the church’s deacons and didn’t visit members of the congregation.
“What they really mean is that someone can wander in off the street and they won’t stop them, but they specifically asked me, explicitly, not to invite black people. I tried to communicate with them that that’s not consistent with Christianity,” Greer told the station.
Greer said he refused to go quietly and on Sunday gave his last sermon about racism.
“I wanted the church to know that this is not consistent with the gospel,” he told WTOK. “This is not consistent with ? ’s word that we honor and give dignity to all people. That’s what the Bible teaches us, and all people are worthy and in need of the gospel, and racism denies that to a certain amount of people.”

All religious institutions should pay taxes. The product(s) being sold is faith and redemption.

But but but Christianity is good for black folk gtfoh these are the same people who gave you the religion a bunch of devils
-
How much do you guys want to bet that these guys are same commenters you see condemning blacks for being 'divisive'.

Racial Homogeny & tribalism trumps man made Christianity & social engineering.
? reminds of white Christian "do-gooders" going to Africa, to civilize the savage through Christianity.
Indoctrination--mind-fuckery 101. -
It's not like those Black children would've benefited much from some ? imaginary religion anyway.
-
but its vacation bible school. you get cookies and juice and have fun with some white people. and learn about our lord and saviour white jesus
-
Praise white Jesus!!!
-
Not our religion anyway, ? pale devils forced it on our ancestors and they never got away from it unfortunately
Prayed for an invisible white man to come save them until the very bitter end -
Wonder why those whites that feels like it's Obama's fault for the racial divide, never talk about ? like this or that black firefighter. Like that Tomi white chic

I remember a children's book we had as kids. It was filled with stories of biblical figures and all of them were white. Even Jehovah was white by the image they showed his hands and feet but had his face a ball of light like the sun. That tells you these religions like Christianity and Jehovah's Witnesses are a creation of white supremacy. No one has seen an angel or ? , but they are white?

It's wild illogical...and outright propaganda.
But even if you indulged it there's two questions to ask......
Are Africans the first "recorded" man?
If ? created man in his image and Africans were alledgely the first man, then what can you reasonably conclude from your bible?

Of course nobody has seen The Most High. Far as his Son, according to the book that is read, the image "they" promote does not match the feet....

If you a righteous white person and you are somehow shocked at how your fellow white brethren really feel about black people then you are naive as hell -
