Just want to take a moment to Congratulate New Birth Missionary Baptist Church and their new Senior Pastor, Dr. Jamal Bryant.
Many have voiced negative judgement against this man, but this is what I know from experience, God does not choose perfect people because such does not exist. Man, oftentimes finds himself entrapped in sin when he chooses to select from those who look perfect according their outer cup. Can we just keep it real for a minute? You see, some folk are of the misconception that Dr. Bryant’s sins are more sinful than their lying, cheating, stealing, sleeping with the pastor’s wife/husband, sleeping with choir members (1 Corinthians 5). But, when God grants you a pardon, you don’t place your own stipulations on that gift, you just say yes. Here’s the thing, if you can access God’s grace for your sins, so can I, and so can Dr. Bryant.
It is written: Isaiah 1:19 “If ye be willing and OBEDIENT, ye shall eat the good of the land:
Scripture does not say: If you are willing and perfect; sinless; not divorced; look the part; white; black; light skinned; dark skinned; fat; skinny; quiet; loud; etc., etc., etc. . . . you get my drift.
NO!!!!
If you are willing and
OBEDIENT
Though no one asked; my only advice is that you walk in this new assignment IN OBEDEIENCE. New Birth is a church under reconstruction and God is looking to the new shepherd of this house to regather His sheep and to restore the flock to Him (Don’t jack it up). If you truly love Him, you will keep His commandments. Like I said, nobody asked me, it’s just a warning; but . . .
Isaiah 1:20 But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.”
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
