Bishop E.W. Jackson Counters hate-preaching with Biblical Christianity: "love, forgiveness, personal responsibility and a healthy dose of patriotism and prayer for our country"

Bishop Jackson : Mar 24, 2008  Standard Newswire

"We include prayer and support for the nation of Israel in our mission statement."

Church in America(CHESAPEAKE, VA)—Black minister and graduate of Harvard Law School, Bishop E.W. Jackson Sr., has begun a campaign to make clear that Jeremiah Wright does not represent black preachers or what is being taught in black churches across America.

Says Bishop Jackson, "This…is anathema to the black church experience where we focus on love, forgiveness, personal responsibility and a healthy dose of patriotism and prayer for our country."

Bishop Jackson also objects to the Anti-Israel bias which Jeremiah Wright expresses. "We include prayer and support for the nation of Israel in our mission statement," says Bishop Jackson. "It is a Biblical mandate for any Bible believing Christian."

According to Bishop Jackson, a pastor and spiritual leader of several congregations for the last 25 years who also studied at Harvard Divinity School, Rev. Wright represents a radical liberation theology… "That is not classic, Biblical Christianity", says Bishop Jackson. "It is quite something else, and easier to understand when seen as an aberration from Christian teaching. I am speaking everywhere I can to get that message out."

Bishop Jackson was formerly a high level official in the Christian Coalition and was instrumental in raising funds for churches victimized by arson in the late 1990's. He left the Coalition to start a church in Chesapeake, Virginia and continue his work independently. His Church does not endorse candidates or parties. "My job", says Bishop Jackson, "is to help Christians view life—which includes politics and public policy—from a Biblical worldview and to discern the truth. They can draw their own conclusions about how to vote."
