The choir sang hallelujah as the congregation of 15,000 clapped and sang along. Reverend James Meeks ratcheted up the intensity of his speech. “Man looks at the outside,” he shouted rearing his head back. “But God looks at your heart! Are you with me here?”
Judging by the response, Meeks had the faithful at Salem Baptist Church hanging on his every word.“One hundred percent with Reverend Meeks,” said parishioner Eugene Harris outside the mega-church on Chicago’s fiercely Democratic South Side.
Meeks is careful not to preach politics from the pulpit. That doesn’t mean he does not have a political side. This former state senator is active as a leader in Chicago’s African-American community and also has considerable political clout.

Homo liberals trying to equate blacks rights with queer rights and the constant lies from Obama are finally pushing some brave black pastors off of the Democratic band wagon. Better late than never.
ReplyDeleteGood choice for this pastor. Pray many more do the same. Pray they can handle the pressure and ridicule that will follow.
