In a recent interview with Breitbart News Daily, Pastor Allen Jackson of Outreach Church Tennessee, discussed his new program, Allen Jackson NOW, which provides a Biblical worldview on current events, he stated that Christians should “wake up” to what is going on in politics, society, and culture and educate people about the real state of affairs.
“We just needed some perspective on what is happening in the world,” Jackson said in reference to his show, which made its premiere on TBN recently.
“We no longer have faith in so many institutions: the CDC, Homeland Security, and the legal system, among others. Therefore, instead of feeling upset, furious, or worried, I believed that by offering a different perspective and incorporating a small dose of God and a Biblical worldview, we could potentially bring some peace to people. This is why we’re doing it, he explained, adding that Christians have long been under the impression that they should keep their political and religious discussions in “polite company.”
We need to wake up, as Christians have risen to the top of the hierarchy. During the Holocaust, Christian Europe took charge. It wasn’t some kind of pagan culture, really. The civilization in question was not devoid of Christians. Jackson issued a warning, saying, “All those exquisite cathedrals and churches throughout Europe presided over the death camps.”
Not just the Germans or the Nazis were involved, Christian Europe was as well. If we don’t wake up, we’ll be responsible for something far worse. He declared, “Ignorance is a sin,” and expressed his confusion at why so many Christians choose to remain silent.
Jackson stated, “I can’t really explain why we decided not to, other than because it’s harder, that we would rather someone else be responsible, but I pray we will take our place.”
“From our casual attitude towards abortion and life to trying to sexualize our youngest children, I think the targeting of our kids with this predatory behavior is completely unacceptable,” Jackson stated. He added that his community is even having trouble getting pornographic books removed from elementary school libraries.
Furthermore, I’ve heard Vanderbilt Medical Center brag about how profitable transgender surgery is for young people. Those are just crazy things, really. Then I saw the wider picture: the Department of Homeland Security is monitoring parents at school board meetings but won’t secure our borders. The pastor stated, “If they are not going to do their job, we ought to abolish the department.” He said it’s easy to “find something that will get you torqued up” without going far.
He concluded on an upbeat note by saying, “But I see amazing expressions of good, and I have such confidence in people who cooperate with God.”
That is the reason this country is so great. And if we are willing, we can revisit it. Given that “evil is often slick” and that the nation is rife with “deceptive, authoritarian” leftists like California Governor Gavin Newsom (Dem), who supports transgender children and is fixated on “climate change,” he urged us to take steps that are a bit more challenging than we’ve been willing to take in recent years.
If one percent of children are experiencing abuse, we must stand up for them. To continue the discussion, I’m all for environmental protection because my [academic background] began in the basic sciences. However, if you produce electricity for your EV by burning coal, the net gain isn’t significant. Compared to the initial combustion of petroleum, this method is less efficient. Thus, we must begin speaking the truth about the environment,” he continued.
