The Sermon the Church Needed

As many of us have already seen by now, a couple of days ago there was an exceptional sermon given by Pastor Loran Livingston of the Central Church in Charlotte, NC. Watch Next: • 15 Bible Verses Identi...
In the sermon, Pastor Livingston not only rebuked Christians for confusing politics with being spiritual, but he also warned about the clear and obvious blasphemy of the “God Bless the USA Bible.”
For those of you who haven’t seen it, here’s the clip now, and pay special attention to how quiet the audience was for the most part. This is likely an indication that many were shocked that someone is actually saying these things, but also, a lot of them probably didn’t like hearing the message.

There is not, never was and never will be 'the antichrist'. Paul in the bible made it clear that there will be (and have been) many antichrists. Trump is ONE of those antichrists, as God told me in a dream three years ago. But he is not THE antichrist.

I am SO glad we have ONE evangelical who is actually HUMAN!!

[@nobodynoneofyourbusiness3787]

For those of you who aren't aware, Evangelical is a made-up word. You're primarily declaring yourself an angelic being walking on earth. That in & of itself is impossible because we were conceived through the womb of a woman with a body that will eventually deteriorate & perish, susceptible to sin, limited by time & space. That is not the definition of an angelic being or a Theophany. Some pastors and so-called theologians attach inaccurate biblical Jargan and definitions through a failed attempt to elevate themselves to a self-righteous state of being. That's alone is Blasthamy. Only Jesus accomplished that.

[@michaelrogers2368]

On the contrary. Those who are human have drunk to kool-aide and cannot see the Orange One as an anti-Christ. Many worship him instead of the Christ. That is HUMAN. Just like the Israelites in the dessert when Moses climbed the mount to be in God’s presence and bring down the Ten Commandments. Think. Why would God send Trump when Christ has already promised to return at the appointed time? How can men pretend to know when that is?

To the church of my youth, What the hell did you expect me to do? You told me to love my neighbors, to model the life of Jesus. To be kind and considerate, and to stand up for the bullied. You told me to love people, consider others as more important than myself. You taught me to sing "red and yellow, black and white, they are precious in His sight." We sang it together, pressing the volume pedal and leaning our hearts into the chorus. You said that “He loved all the children of the world”. You told me to love my enemies, to even do good to those who wish for bad things. You told me to never "hate" anyone and to always find ways to encourage people. You told me it's better to give than receive, to be last instead of first. To help the poor, the widow, the stranger at the gate. You told me that Jesus looks at what I do for the least-of-these as the true depth of my faith. You told me to focus on my own sin and not to judge. You told me to be accepting and forgiving. So I paid attention. I took in every lesson. And I did what you told me. But now, you call me a libtard. A queer-lover. You call me "woke." A backslider. You call me a heretic. You make fun of my heart. You mock the people I’m trying to help. You say I’m a child of the devil. You call me soft. A snowflake. A socialist. You shun the very people you told me to help. What the hell did you expect me to do? I thought you were serious, but apparently not. You hate nearly all the people I love. You stand against nearly all the things I stand for. I'm trying to see a way forward, but it's hard when I survey all the hurt, harm, and darkness that comes in the wake of your beliefs and presence. What the hell did you expect me to do? I believed it all the way. I'm still believing it all the way. Which leaves me wondering, what happened to you?

[@seagrif]

@@wayne00k Don't be cryptic, just come out and say what you think of him. I've never heard him preach before.

[@TheDisconcertingTruth]

@@seagrif He's a lordship salvationist, he makes the classic mistake of switching "repentance" (A recognition of one's own wrongdoing or guilt) with "penance" (A need to make recompense or pay for one's wrong doings) So his "faith" if you listen to even just the sermon this clip came from is really "salvation with a payment and financing plan of "good works"" He is one of those types that get hung up on that "faith without works is dead" verse (not a teaching of Paul fyi, and paul is \our/ disciple, we should be studying his letters and not jame's letters. You already did your "good work" by recognizing yourself as a sinner and realizing you've lived in error, admitting you are have a problem is the first step to recovery after all, and alot of people will go through their entire life without \ever/ recognizing their own wrong doing or sin, nor asking Christ or anyone else for help (see: trump, see: trump supporters).

[@TheDisconcertingTruth]

Basically the short of it is, to satisfy the gospel of James requirement of "faith without works is dead", all it takes is considering Christ when your back is against the wall, the fact that you even thought on him, or felt bad when you did something wrong (let alone try to fix it), completely 100% satisfies this verse in full, Christ did all the work here to save you, it is finished and requires no further enhancements on your part. Hopefully that clarifies my issue with this pastor and even better, makes salvation easy to understand.

I am catholic, but went to a non denominational church as a youth which opened my eyes to Jesus's teaching more than boring mass. Both churches provided me with a great Chistian foundation, but ultimately, I believe no mortal can interpret scripture and dictate religion to you. Each individual has to pray, develop faith in Jesus based on the experiences God has set forth in their lives and establish your own beliefs rooted in the words of the bible. Love thy neighbor does not mean only if they are white, Christian, non-immigrant and straight. As yourself what would Jesus do? Would he seek revenge on his political foes? Would he bash LGBTQ? Would he talk badly about and mistreat illegal immigrants? Proverbs 6:16-19 There are six things that the Lord hates, seven that are an abomination to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that make haste to run to evil, a false witness who breathes out lies, and one who sows discord among brothers.

The perception of Christianity today especially among the young, is negative because of the political right and there's a good chance it will destroy Christianity in this country unless there is a reformation back to the essence of Jesus teachings.

I was encouraged by this sermon. Faith in Christ is completely separate from politics. This country should return to separation of Church and State, The political leaders are definitely not qualified to teach morality. What this tells me is that we might have a bunch of unqualified pastors that are falling down on their duties. Morality is the sole responsibility of the church, not the state. If the churches are not doing their jobs, it's easier for them to let the state do the job. The state is usually mired down with corruption and is singularly incapable of nourishing the spirits of the faithful. Jesus Christ even said, "Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's and unto God the things that are God's" Does this not totally support the idea of separation of church and state? Wake up America. There is NO savior in ANY politician. There is only ONE Savior and that is Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Any politician that compares him or herself with God, is guilty of blasphemy in the extreme. Jesus will not return as a corrupt politician. In the last days, the scriptures say, "You will hear, lo, here is Christ, or lo, there is Christ, believe them not." When Christ returns it will be obvious that He has returned in a cloud of Glory. Be ever prepared like the wise virgins with their trimmed lamps. Reject outright the inclusion of church precepts into the state. Honor the church by reading the scriptures and look for the return of Jesus Christ, the ONLY Savior of His people.

This pastor is speaking the truth.

[@curiositychroniclesx]

Many pastors need to watch this he is so spot on we have worshipped America

[@stevekalas4943]

AMEN. GOD BLESS YOU PASTOR for having the COURAGE.

[@hansgordy]

This pastor gets it. Growing up... my home pastor of many years warned us of the coming extreme evangelical movement and how it would be about politics, power, and money. He told us that being born into the church once was all that God needed or wanted. At baptism... we are born into the church and accepted by God. He was right.

[@chimichurrismith3769]

A few good Pastors left. May God bless you 😊

[@sandrapeavley7389]

God bless this pastor for bringing truth! 🙏🏻✝️

[@Lioness1499]

I heard this earlier and I was glad he spoke. It restored my faith in believing some of us in the body of christ might make it in.

[@-the1b4u-]

He's standing up to the wolf in sheep's clothing! Praise God! 👏 I pray this will catch on like a wildfire all over our country 🙏

[@ankhpom9296]

Praise be to God.

[@sfdint]

Trump doesn't even bother to put on sheep's clothing. He's pure wolf.

[@-the1b4u-]

@sfdint to people that can see it, yes, but not his cult

[@heyou702pc]

This Pastor will be the reason I get back into the church.

[@lynnbrady4193]

Praise God! This NEEDED to be said. I commend him for his bravery and truth telling. I’d have made a spectacle of myself if I had been there by standing and applauding!

[@kendallpeters6451]

I’m not a religious guy but this preacher is absolutely right. 👍👍❤️😎

[@warriorsforjesus3479]

It was so refreshing to hear from a pastor preaching the truth

“ If you glory in that kind of political mess, you do not know what the word of God sayeth.” Amen to that!

[@Metalbass10000]

This message NEEDS to be broadcast across the nation in every Christian congregation. Everything he says is 100% correct according to actual Christian faith.

[@oliverwilson4516]

"Jesus answered, “My kingdom does not belong to this world. If my kingdom belonged to this world, my followers would be fighting to keep me from being handed over to the Jews. But as it is, my kingdom is not from here.”" - ‭John 18:36 NRSVUE‬ This needs to be played and replayed at full volume from loud speakers in churches all across America 24/7.

[@stellamaggard3669]

Yes!!!

Thank you, Oliver!! We NEEDED THAT!! BTW, I named my second Son Oliver. I grew tired of all the "Modern" Names of the 80s & chose a Traditional Name!! I Like it & He's 44 now & doing just fine!! Thank You!! This Old Order Hippy Wishes Peace to You & Yours.

[@praisebrown6113]

I agree.

[@matthewpressley1707]

I have followed Pastor Livingston’s ministry and messages for years and years and this straight forward preaching is always what he delivers! He is a true man of God,pastoring his church faithfully for 40 years!

[@matthewpressley1707]

What kind of question is this? So decisions made during the pandemic defines a pastors ministry? You have no idea what it was to pastor a church through Covid,sir I do… Don’t judge a church or a pastors decisions during one of the toughest times in our generation to try to discern what was the right thing,example as a pastor and the deacons we decided to stand open and ended up getting the whole congregation sick,with many in the hospital… Anyone that makes light of those decisions we had to make as leaders does not have a clue what you are talking about!

[@hectormorales3713]

Amen! As a Catholic I strongly believe in separation of church and state. Pastor said it the best way I’ve ever heard it. The constitution has no references to God and that’s that! Love “ Voting is a civic privelage “ I pray that other Pastor’s take point in this sermon and pass it along. It’s going to take a lot of work to get the message thru since many have been indoctrinated into believing a man who didn’t read the Bible, nor can recite any particular verse be a God sent or a second coming of Jesus. Thank you Pastor

[@michellehall565]

AMEN! Tell the truth, shame the devil!!!

[@Kevin-yw8se]

Greatest sermon of all times. God bless this pastor. Pastor Loran, stay strong. We need you, America needs you, humanity needs you.

[@karlahemphill3414]

Thankyou Jesus for pastors like this. I've believed Trump was evil to the core. I don't know why I could see this, and my other Christian friends and relatives can't.

[@debrawashington9575]

As the word says. He that has ears to hear, let him hear. U do, pray for them.

[@peggyblanchard5167]

Christianity needs a lot more people like that. Not the spinless dividers they currently have.

I'm an atheist and I support this man!!

[@Missi-Forensic-Astrology]

I agree with you, I'm a christian, I have been a republican, I have been a democrat, but I have never believed that politics belongs in the church That's something that evangelicals have started and it has not stopped for many years I'm a United Methodist and I'm totally against politics in the churches ❤😊

[@a.m.godwin8610]

❤Amen. So thankful for his message. I pray this will hit home for Christians.

[@surfcityh.b-ca8599]

Listening to Pastor Loran Livingston speak the word of God with strong conviction and without deluding it with politics, hatred, bigotry, and racism is like having a cold glass of ice water in a scorching hot sumner day.. It also confirms what God has shown me: that in the last days, many of God's people will fall into the spirit of delusion spoken about in the book of 2 Thessalonians 2. ✝️ 2 Thessalonians 2:11-12 11 For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie 12 and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness.. ( 👉 I will continue to watch Pastor Loran's sermons.. )

[@hectormorales3713]

So very true. God bless.

[@janesparks4912]

Play it far and wide!!! God bless this pastor🙏🙏🙏💙💙💙

[@FirstName-gz3dg]

Glad to hear it said. Grew up with faithful, good parents. My parents turned the other cheek when the congregation looked down on us for being poor. How could the church preach about salvation and be so shallow? As kids, we were tormented and teased during Sunday school. This formed my opinions on Christian beliefs. I rarely meet christians. Churches need to stay out of politics. Church funds should be used to help the needy not build fancy churches. Period. I have little faith in churches anymore. My personal belief is any church not doing said things above should not have tax exempt status...because they are not churches, they are businesses.

[@dianemanson7756]

About time. Need more pastors to step up & do the same. God will bless this man for speaking the truth.

[@RobHardin-eu5vl]

Pastor hit the nail on the head.

[@JC1953RD]

Much respect to this pastor, for having the courage of preaching the truth, and putting his faith on God, knowing he was risking the tithes of the maga attendees with his message.🙏🏼💪🏼

[@joycecrowton8423]

Great Sermon!!!! My daughter sent this to me the other day. Awesome words 👌

[@arpeggioblues5924]

Praise the Lord.. I hardly ever utter those words, this Pastor needs to be listened to by every religious christian

[@larrytaylor1966]

It's good to know this is a Godly preachers out there to preach the gospel Indian care less about American politics for care more about a human being so politics will always be of this world the word of God will last forever may God bless all those today service is fell upon made out of repent and believe the gospel if I never meet you on this planet may I meet you in the kingdom of God praise God brother amen

[@BrendaSiefke]

When the greatest failure of our time threw his hat in the ring, I called him the devil incarnate. I'm so glad others are aware.

[@SilverCottage]

Amen, Amen and Amen! As a convert to Christianity, in general, and Catholicism, in particular, I have become nearly distraught by dirty, loveless, worldly POLITICS being conflated with the religion that I love. I am SO grateful for my faith, I cannot express it strongly enough. But it brings tears to my eyes when I encounter co-religionists who parrot the Godless campaign mottos of a vulgar, immoral, lying, sexual predator whose values are OBVIOUSLY the opposite of Christian values. When I see fellow Christians following that awful man, instead of following Christ, all the while proclaiming a political gospel in the place of our Lord's, I feel such fear for them - fear for their souls! Lord Jesus, help them see. Please, Lord, draw them to your bosom and hold them tight! May they rest in your love and come to their senses.

[@AlphaWolf096]

This is your friendly neighborhood Christian-turned-atheist-turned-Eclectic Pagan (with focus on the Greek pantheon) speaking. I learned how to sense and (mentally) hear divine beings partly when I was a Christian and it’s gotten honed and re-kindled after my recent conversion to paganism. I’ve probably had more interaction with Jesus, some of the various Archangels (Michael and Raphael in particular), and Virgin Mary in the past few months as a pagan focusing on the worship of the Greek pantheon than I ever did during the few years I was a Pentecostal-adjacent evangelical Christian. I was contemplating how Jesus drove the moneychangers out of the temple when I made a joke about how maybe we should drive the evangelicals out of a church with a whip. Jesus pops into my space, says “I approve”, tosses me a spiritual whip, and then leaves.

[@bernardpelley4126]

I've been wanting to hear that for a long time. God bless that pastor.

[@gladysdominguez8242]

GOD Bless this Pastor and Protect him for having the courage to Speak The Truth of Jesus Christ. 🙏🙏🙏

[@alfredoordaz4908]

Thank God there's a pastor in church talking about this subject. I hope those "Christians" who have become blind followers of a man who is an impostor pretending to be the chosen one. I hope they start to see the antichrist they are following, and they can change and go back to the Christian faith. 🙏✝️

[@CatCmdr]

Brother Paul: Thank you so much for this. This was on my list to listen to. He knows why we’re here. “Love One Another, as I have Loved you.” You can pray that those who choose evil will find God instead…but every one of us has the choice. ❤🙏💙

[@davidphelps7763]

I was watching body language, such as jiggling a foot, and many were not happy.. I have heard for years of pastors who were afraid to preach this as the congregation might become quite small.

[@UnashamedCaliforniagirl]

I find this sad because I would be more likely to want to go to a church where a Pastor took this kind of stand. I ❤ this guy .

[@alicialewis5066]

Me too! Especially the guy in the blue suit his legging was moving, and you can see in his he was burning mad.

[@ssticklen]

White Christians have repeatedly cancelled pastors who blaspheme Trump, Russell Moore, for example.

[@niaharrison5843]

That is so sad because those pastors are focused on the wrong thing preach God's word and let him feel the church building.

[@Tsimy876]

Amen Pastor Livingston! Thank you for your courage to speak truth!! God bless you!

[@DMWB57]

I think it will be imperitive to find this video on KZbin so we can all praise this Pastor for being truthful!! God Bless him for stepping out of his comfort zone & disregarding his fear of reprisal. Thanks Brother Paul for showing this clip, it was great!! God Bless the truth tellers & those who preach biblically not through a political lense!

[@cliffordlowerre1381]

I have always tried not to mix politics and religion. And I believe religious leaders, in particular, should try to remain impartial. Unfortunately, CHUMP has forced us to have the two clash. He thrives and delights in CHAOS, so I am convinced this is by design. I admire Dr. Livingston's ( I presume ) courage to publicly state the obvious. I'm sure everyone was listening. Problem is that some people are in denial and simply can not accept the truth. A sign of the Orwellian times we live in.

[@4ninesfinesilver315]

I am hearing you loud and clear. Amen and amen.🤠👍

[@aaron032977]

God always shows up on time. His word will be heard one way or another anytime anywhere he wants it to.

[@MisterPuggles]

Uh, this is NOT on time. The man could have spoke to his "followers" a little earlier and more clearly.

[@pvig5222]

This guy was on fire with the Holy Spirit with this sermon. Glad he said it.

[@ralphscholz9533]

WOW! Finally! Someone’s eyes are open. It sure took long enough. Jesus himself said, “Render unto Caesar what is Caesar’s”. So many people have totally ignored that bit of scripture.

[@kristywarren3904]

Amen! God bless you for posting this! My former church is still mixing politics and the church all the time. It has cost that church most of its young people. And a lot of us that don’t think this should be done. I don’t have any trouble with reminding people to vote, or reminding us that we should all be proud of our country and honor our veterans. 😮But that is different! I would remind people of the strong faith of former President Jimmy Carter. People might question his policies but you can’t question his faith. Also he never sold Bibles he just used his to read and stud y and live by!

[@Judy0910]

I wish that I lived close to his church. This is what the majority of the Maga's and the other people out here need to listen to. God bless this man for speaking the truth!

[@paddys900]

As a member of the protestant family and a regular churchgoer, my thoughts on Trump and his cult severely test my Christian patience!!

[@godschild7643]

THANK YOU Pastor Livingston. A wonderful, timely word!!

[@karentimc3325]

Amen. Thank you, LORD, that this preacher is standing up for you and your words. I have never seen such a deception in church buildings today. He is right people follow a man and his lying words before they pick up GOD words and know them. It is ashamed how America has fallen with in herself. I have been praying along with my mom that GOD would opened up people's eyes to the devils lies and deceit within the false teaching about politics in GOD house of prayer. GOD house is a house of prayer and united of true Christians coming together in love and prayer for our nation and one another, The devil and his crowd have darkened the truth in so many today, So sad. Thank you, LORD, for answered prayers and this my brother in Christ my LORD. GOD bless. PREACH. Me and mother are now watching this man of GOD.
