Black Bishop Encourages Christians to Leave Democrat Party

ChristianPost— A black Virginia bishop is calling for Christians to leave the Democratic Party over what he describes as a “cult-like devotion” to abortion and what he terms as a “rejection” of the traditional family.

Bishop E.W. Jackson, a veteran of the Marine Corps and Harvard Law graduate, says the Democrats’ enslavement of some Americans, most notably black Americans, is the modern day equivalent of slavery and his focus is to lead an exodus, similar to what Moses did in the Old Testament.

“Let God’s people go,” Jackson told The Christian Post in a telephone interview.

“Clearly, the Democratic Party is the anti-Christian Party in this nation. They reject the Bible, what Bible-believing Christians embrace and they encourage the growth of what we can a ‘non-traditional’ family. That is morally wrong and a disgrace to our nation and our Lord,” said Jackson.

Jackson pointed to recent statements from liberals attacking Olympic gymnast Gabrielle Douglas, the 16-year-old sensation who won the all-around gold medal in gymnastics at the 2012 London summer Olympics.

After her historic victory, Douglas tweeted a verse from Romans 12:19: “Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, ‘Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.’”
