TH, thank you so very much for posting this link. I would that everyone on this BB watched the entire video.

That would presume that all of us have unlimited internet capability/access. It'd be nice if a transcript could be provided

Don, I will start a new thread that will give you a link to an article in Christianity Today. I does not contain a transcript of this video, but it addresses the same topic and does get across what he said in the video.

Don, apparently this video is several years old. Here is another link to the video with a downloadable PDF of the book "Bloodlines".

The message of Christ, you must be born anew, your bloodline does not matter, is often missed by those who still believe in tribalism. There are, in reality only two groups, the lost, from which we come, and the saved. We are to love the lost, and minister to them. There is no "we/they" tribalism in real Christianity. No I follow Paul, you follow Calvin divide. No traditional dispensationalism, where Jews are not the same as born anew Gentiles.

The godless left, which feeds on fanning the flames of special privilege, wants "white privilege" to be discussed, rather than we are all siblings, and need to care for the least of us.
