Right.
I watched the video late last night, but I was so tired, after I typed my post, I never hit "submit" before exiting the internet.
So my thoughts were:
Bro. McKee, really like what you had to say in the clip. IMO it needs to be said.
However, I have great disappointment in the entire GP version of the video. Why you even preached a man like this I don't know. I know that sometimes we develop friendships, and though one guys is seen as radical, or liberal, or conservative, they are preached based more on a personal friendship than actually theology. I realize this is common in pentecostal circles, but what happened at your church is reason that should not be the case.
I think the entire section of the GP vidoe was total trash. That wasn't preaching at all. What a waste of time, and what a shame. All of the racials slurs, insults, etc, doesn't do anything to bring people closer to Christ, nor does it encourage REAL holiness. It is that type of psuedo-authority, psuedo-power which is used to manipulate people to line up. "We should follow the preaching of this man, because He's in tune with the Spirit of God. Why, He even used GP to bring life to the cowboy church (using James Brown, no less)"
I would hope that RM would set this straight with his congregation, and I certainly would not have that preacher back.
My thoughts on the GP version of the video can be summed up in a smilie:
Threaded Mode
