    Listen when you kneel like that you arent kneeling to anything it's just saying that the anthem is a lie so u shouldn't treat it like the truth Btw I do my best to follow god fully and when you kneel it only becomes a sin, when you start treating them like god, like in the bible times when you kneeled to your elders it wasn't a sin or when you kneeled to your king.

I believe that Black lives Matter period! While you are focusing on this organization, you say NOTHING about the truth of the phrase and the necessity of saying it! Jesus died for everyone's sins, but Remember Mattew 22:37-40. CHURCH'S like to think that they excel in the first and greatest commandment, but fall so short on the second. How is that we have so many Christian churches in America that are 95 to 100% one race? Race was created in the 14th century to establish white supremacy, while Christianity was established in the first century. Therefore, the Christian church allowed race to pollute the church. The Christian church endorsed slavery and all the atrocities therein. Therefore white privilege and systematic racism will not addressed or altered by the church. The evil that so called white Christians continue to do to their non-white brethren will continue to happen, while people like you blame it on spiritual warfare, while Dylan Roof is attending prayer meeting before he opens fire on his non-white brethren.

I read nothing in her words that indicates that she is ashamed of Jesus. You’re adding to her words. She said she was glad another believer was representing her. She could be a young believer. She could be a new believer. You have no idea and didn’t even try to figure that out. You immediately went on the assault with insults. Then you mention lukewarm believers. Nothing she said indicates that she is lukewarm. She actually showed great joy about someone else serving God. I don’t understand why she said Jonathon represents her. But that’s not a reason to verbally attack her. You can still be respectful and gentle about it. This was an opportunity to educate a fellow believers but instead you used it as a means to attack. If anyone seeking Jesus is stumbled by your approach and abandons Christ, what then will Jesus say to you?

    Not really. He's a 22 year old man who has no idea the damage his stance is doing to the cause of his people. He's is very devout to the religion he practices. There are those who are just as devout about his same religion who don't consider him to be a real person. Race was created in the 14th century. Christianity embraced white supremacy on a global bases, despite Jesus never speaking or professing racism or prejudice. This young man is doing what he thinks is right and has no idea of how that same religion has been used to justify those that would see him and those like him eliminated.
