Where Are the Christians Now?

Rev. Dr. William J. Barber, II

Published on May 8, 2013

May 7th, 2013 - In an address at Martin Street Baptist Church in Raleigh, Rev. Dr. William J. Barber, II asks his fellow Christians, in the light of the regressive legislation pouring out of the North Carolina General Assembly, "Where are you now?"

[Fortinbras Armstrong]

1. Amen, Brother Barber.

Incidentally, the banner behind him says Isaiah 2:2-4. Here it is

In days to come
the mountain of the Lord’s house
shall be established as the highest of the mountains,
and shall be raised above the hills;
all the nations shall stream to it.
Many peoples shall come and say,
‘Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,
to the house of the God of Jacob;
that he may teach us his ways
and that we may walk in his paths.’
For out of Zion shall go forth instruction,
and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
He shall judge between the nations,
and shall arbitrate for many peoples;
they shall beat their swords into ploughshares,
and their spears into pruning-hooks;
nation shall not lift up sword against nation,
neither shall they learn war any more.

[okasha]

2. Good question.

Dr. Barber should keep asking it until it shames them into action.
