00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:57,830

Christianity is a simple religion. Not

Jesus gave us two commandments. Love God

00:06:11,749 --> 00:06:11,759
Jesus gave us two commandments. Love God
285
00:06:11,759 --> 00:06:14,309
Jesus gave us two commandments. Love God
and love neighbor. And there was no
286
00:06:14,309 --> 00:06:14,319
and love neighbor. And there was no
287
00:06:14,319 --> 00:06:16,309
and love neighbor. And there was no
exception to that second commandment.
288
00:06:16,309 --> 00:06:16,319
exception to that second commandment.
289
00:06:16,319 --> 00:06:18,870

00:07:06,390 --> 00:07:06,400
religion down their throats is not love.
331
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:11,189
religion down their throats is not love.
And it's why I have fought
332
00:07:11,189 --> 00:07:11,199
333
00:07:11,199 --> 00:07:14,309
It's why I fought so hard for that
334
00:07:14,309 --> 00:07:14,319
It's why I fought so hard for that
335
00:07:14,319 --> 00:07:16,550
It's why I fought so hard for that
sacred separation in our first
336
00:07:16,550 --> 00:07:16,560
sacred separation in our first
337
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:18,469
sacred separation in our first
amendment. Because my granddad, he
338
00:07:18,469 --> 00:07:18,479
amendment. Because my granddad, he
339
00:07:18,479 --> 00:07:20,309
amendment. Because my granddad, he
raised me to believe that that boundary
340
00:07:20,309 --> 00:07:20,319
raised me to believe that that boundary
341
00:07:20,319 --> 00:07:21,990
raised me to believe that that boundary
between church and state doesn't just
342
00:07:21,990 --> 00:07:22,000
between church and state doesn't just
343
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:23,749
between church and state doesn't just
benefit the state or our democracy,
344
00:07:23,749 --> 00:07:23,759
benefit the state or our democracy,
345
00:07:23,759 --> 00:07:25,830
benefit the state or our democracy,
although it certainly does, but it also
346
00:07:25,830 --> 00:07:25,840
although it certainly does, but it also
347
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,150
although it certainly does, but it also
benefits the church. Because when the
348
00:07:28,150 --> 00:07:28,160
benefits the church. Because when the
349
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:31,510
benefits the church. Because when the
church gets too cozy with political
350
00:07:31,510 --> 00:07:31,520
church gets too cozy with political
351
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:35,189
church gets too cozy with political
power, it loses its prophetic voice, its
352
00:07:35,189 --> 00:07:35,199
power, it loses its prophetic voice, its
353
00:07:35,199 --> 00:07:36,950
power, it loses its prophetic voice, its
ability to speak truth to power, its
354
00:07:36,950 --> 00:07:36,960
ability to speak truth to power, its
355
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,189
ability to speak truth to power, its
ability to imagine a completely
356
00:07:39,189 --> 00:07:39,199
ability to imagine a completely
357
00:07:39,199 --> 00:07:41,749
ability to imagine a completely
different world. And so this separation
358
00:07:41,749 --> 00:07:41,759
different world. And so this separation
359
00:07:41,759 --> 00:07:43,909
different world. And so this separation
between church and state is something we
360
00:07:43,909 --> 00:07:43,919
between church and state is something we
361
00:07:43,919 --> 00:07:45,589
between church and state is something we
have to safeguard. It's something we
362
00:07:45,589 --> 00:07:45,599
have to safeguard. It's something we
363
00:07:45,599 --> 00:07:47,749
have to safeguard. It's something we
have to fight for. And I think we need
364
00:07:47,749 --> 00:07:47,759
have to fight for. And I think we need
365
00:07:47,759 --> 00:07:49,909
have to fight for. And I think we need
someone in the US Senate who is going to
366
00:07:49,909 --> 00:07:49,919
someone in the US Senate who is going to
367
00:07:49,919 --> 00:07:52,309
someone in the US Senate who is going to
confront Christian nationalism and say
368
00:07:52,309 --> 00:07:52,319
confront Christian nationalism and say
369
00:07:52,319 --> 00:07:54,150
confront Christian nationalism and say
and tell the truth which is that there
370
00:07:54,150 --> 00:07:54,160
and tell the truth which is that there
371
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:56,390
and tell the truth which is that there
is nothing Christian about Christian
372
00:07:56,390 --> 00:07:56,400
is nothing Christian about Christian
373
00:07:56,400 --> 00:08:01,830
is nothing Christian about Christian
nationalism. It is the
374
00:08:01,830 --> 00:08:01,840
375
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:04,150
it is
376
00:08:04,150 --> 00:08:04,160
it is
377
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:07,350
it is
it is the the worship it is the worship
378
00:08:07,350 --> 00:08:07,360
it is the the worship it is the worship
379
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,390
it is the the worship it is the worship
of power in the name of Christ. And it
380
00:08:10,390 --> 00:08:10,400
of power in the name of Christ. And it
381
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,029
of power in the name of Christ. And it
is a betrayal of Jesus of Nazareth. And
382
00:08:13,029 --> 00:08:13,039
is a betrayal of Jesus of Nazareth. And
383
00:08:13,039 --> 00:08:14,309
is a betrayal of Jesus of Nazareth. And
I just want to thank you, Stephen,
384
00:08:14,309 --> 00:08:14,319
I just want to thank you, Stephen,
385
00:08:14,319 --> 00:08:15,830
I just want to thank you, Stephen,
because I know you're not a politician,
386
00:08:15,830 --> 00:08:15,840
because I know you're not a politician,
387
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,869
because I know you're not a politician,
but you have really shown people in this
388
00:08:18,869 --> 00:08:18,879
but you have really shown people in this
389
00:08:18,879 --> 00:08:22,150
but you have really shown people in this
country what Christianity should be and
390
00:08:22,150 --> 00:08:22,160
country what Christianity should be and
391
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,710
country what Christianity should be and
what it means to to actually live out
392
00:08:24,710 --> 00:08:24,720
what it means to to actually live out
393
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:26,469
what it means to to actually live out
the teachings of Jesus, even in a talk
394
00:08:26,469 --> 00:08:26,479
the teachings of Jesus, even in a talk
395
00:08:26,479 --> 00:08:29,270
the teachings of Jesus, even in a talk
show. Well, I I uh I'm going to push
396
00:08:29,270 --> 00:08:29,280
show. Well, I I uh I'm going to push
397
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,510
show. Well, I I uh I'm going to push
back a little bit on that. Uh that's
398
00:08:31,510 --> 00:08:31,520
back a little bit on that. Uh that's
399
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:33,190
back a little bit on that. Uh that's
very nice of you to say. I would I would
400
00:08:33,190 --> 00:08:33,200
very nice of you to say. I would I would
401
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:35,430
very nice of you to say. I would I would
never uh lay that compliment to myself
402
00:08:35,430 --> 00:08:35,440
never uh lay that compliment to myself
403
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,310
never uh lay that compliment to myself
because I think I uh fall far short of
404
00:08:38,310 --> 00:08:38,320
because I think I uh fall far short of
405
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,110
because I think I uh fall far short of
what uh my standards would be. But I I
406
00:08:41,110 --> 00:08:41,120
what uh my standards would be. But I I
407
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,190
what uh my standards would be. But I I
will agree with you on this. I think
408
00:08:43,190 --> 00:08:43,200
will agree with you on this. I think
409
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:44,870
will agree with you on this. I think
that
410
00:08:44,870 --> 00:08:44,880
that
411
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:48,150
that
it is bad for certainly my church or any
412
00:08:48,150 --> 00:08:48,160
it is bad for certainly my church or any
413
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,150
it is bad for certainly my church or any
any religious organization to associate
414
00:08:50,150 --> 00:08:50,160
any religious organization to associate
415
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,470
any religious organization to associate
themselves from from a political party.
416
00:08:52,470 --> 00:08:52,480
themselves from from a political party.
417
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:55,269
themselves from from a political party.
How must it diminish God to be
418
00:08:55,269 --> 00:08:55,279
How must it diminish God to be
419
00:08:55,279 --> 00:08:59,190
How must it diminish God to be
associated with something so small as a
420
00:08:59,190 --> 00:08:59,200
associated with something so small as a
421
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,670
associated with something so small as a
present political party? That's right.
422
00:09:01,670 --> 00:09:01,680
present political party? That's right.
423
00:09:01,680 --> 00:09:05,190
present political party? That's right.
Because imagine this.
424
00:09:05,190 --> 00:09:05,200
Because imagine this.
425
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,430
Because imagine this.
Imagine that you managed to co-opt
426
00:09:07,430 --> 00:09:07,440
Imagine that you managed to co-opt
427
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,350
Imagine that you managed to co-opt
Christianity. Imagine if you managed to
428
00:09:09,350 --> 00:09:09,360
Christianity. Imagine if you managed to
429
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,509
Christianity. Imagine if you managed to
convince everybody that Jesus was on
430
00:09:11,509 --> 00:09:11,519
convince everybody that Jesus was on
431
00:09:11,519 --> 00:09:13,590
convince everybody that Jesus was on
your side. If you then lose the
432
00:09:13,590 --> 00:09:13,600
your side. If you then lose the
433
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:15,670
your side. If you then lose the
election, sounds like you've got a
434
00:09:15,670 --> 00:09:15,680
election, sounds like you've got a
435
00:09:15,680 --> 00:09:16,630
election, sounds like you've got a
pretty weak Jesus.
436
00:09:16,630 --> 00:09:16,640
pretty weak Jesus.
437
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,630
pretty weak Jesus.
>> Yeah, that's exactly right. And that's
438
00:09:18,630 --> 00:09:18,640
>> Yeah, that's exactly right. And that's
439
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,269
>> Yeah, that's exactly right. And that's
the key is you don't want to fit the big
440
00:09:21,269 --> 00:09:21,279
the key is you don't want to fit the big
441
00:09:21,279 --> 00:09:23,269
the key is you don't want to fit the big
thing into the small thing.
442
00:09:23,269 --> 00:09:23,279
thing into the small thing.
443
00:09:23,279 --> 00:09:25,750
thing into the small thing.
>> And God is the biggest thing there is.
444
00:09:25,750 --> 00:09:25,760
>> And God is the biggest thing there is.
445
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:27,750
>> And God is the biggest thing there is.
And so to try to fit God into a
446
00:09:27,750 --> 00:09:27,760
And so to try to fit God into a
447
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:29,269
And so to try to fit God into a
political party, whether it's the
448
00:09:29,269 --> 00:09:29,279
political party, whether it's the
449
00:09:29,279 --> 00:09:30,710
political party, whether it's the
Republican party or the Democratic
450
00:09:30,710 --> 00:09:30,720
Republican party or the Democratic
451
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:31,670
Republican party or the Democratic
party,
452
00:09:31,670 --> 00:09:31,680
party,
453
00:09:31,680 --> 00:09:34,870
party,
>> you've got it reversed. And and so it's
454
00:09:34,870 --> 00:09:34,880
>> you've got it reversed. And and so it's
455
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,829
>> you've got it reversed. And and so it's
why I think we have to remember to put
456
00:09:37,829 --> 00:09:37,839
why I think we have to remember to put
457
00:09:37,839 --> 00:09:40,470
why I think we have to remember to put
those big things first, to put the love
458
00:09:40,470 --> 00:09:40,480
those big things first, to put the love
459
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:42,310
those big things first, to put the love
of God and the love for our neighbors
460
00:09:42,310 --> 00:09:42,320
of God and the love for our neighbors
461
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,230
of God and the love for our neighbors
before anything else. Because right now
462
00:09:44,230 --> 00:09:44,240
before anything else. Because right now
463
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,070
before anything else. Because right now
what you've got is people baptizing
464
00:09:46,070 --> 00:09:46,080
what you've got is people baptizing
465
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:47,990
what you've got is people baptizing
their partisanship and calling that
466
00:09:47,990 --> 00:09:48,000
their partisanship and calling that
467
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,310
their partisanship and calling that
Christianity when in reality your
468
00:09:50,310 --> 00:09:50,320
Christianity when in reality your
469
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,710
Christianity when in reality your
politics should grow out of your faith,
470
00:09:52,710 --> 00:09:52,720
politics should grow out of your faith,
471
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:54,470
politics should grow out of your faith,
not the other way around.
472
00:09:54,470 --> 00:09:54,480
not the other way around.
473
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:58,710
not the other way around.
Now,
474
00:09:58,710 --> 00:09:58,720
475
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:00,550
