Jeremiah Wright- and Total Praise!!

[413lm]

A wonderful benediction! This is how we closed service for years! DO NOT LET THE MEDIA FOOL YOU! God's Speed to you Pastor Wright toward Peace & Favor. Be Blessed, for you have truely been a blessing to thousands.

[10ruthie]

love this pastor true to the heart

[rumanmiah]

Mathew 27:46

And Jesus answered him, the first of the commandments is, Hear O Israel; the lord our God is one Lord.

Not three as the trinity says, the word trinity is not in the bible!

1st Corinthians 14:33

For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.

So do not tell me some of these things are hard for humans to understand. If you say this you are saying the opposite of what god is saying.

[doug63m]

John 14:26 (as spoken by Jesus Christ, the one true Lord & Savior) - But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you."

Now if Jesus spoke of the Father (God) & the Counselor (the Holy Spirit), rthen whether or not the *word* "Trinity" was mentioned in the Bible, in this one verse alone it is exemplified by the words of Jesus Christ Himself...

[doug63m]

Why should it be so hard to understand this concept, & why do people continue to nitpick about whether or not the *word* "Trinity" is in the Bible when the *CONCEPT* is right there for all who wish to see & understand?? PLEASE people, READ your Bible....

[saltandsavor]

And YOU shouldn't try to hide your cowardice behind the anonymity of a cyberspace keyboard.

This is a beautiful ending to a wonderful service. Why can't you just let it be?

[Monk3597]

A beautiful benediction.

[tooraw888]

Yes Rev. Wright! Now that's the man that I know!

[chinadolljmh]

That's Daddy J

[Joestops]

Yes, this is truly a beautiful service. It just goes to show that Rev Wright has good and bad in him. But he's still responsible for the things he has said. And Obama is responsible for standing beside him for 20 years.

[saltandsavor]

Joe, Walking: You're absolutely right. We're all responsible for our words and deeds. That's what he told his congregation all the time.  To get a better feel for this man and what makes him tick. Check out the PBS Bill Moyers interview from last Fri.

I love this benediction on this video. The music is awesome, and it shows the heart of Rev Wright and his congregation. Want to hear something else awesome? Check out: The Audacity of Hope at watch?v=L65nTKHq0v4

[mjames4040]

what you and joe said sounds good, but some of it is incorrect. good and bad? excuse me, but the same sermons that were made public is the same thing that I hear now. and that is a person who loves Jesus and who helps the opressed and loves people. now he might be to real for you, but to me he is a person that God has given us to hear the truth about this country. And if anyone was wondering, he is the same person 20 years ago that he is now . Maybe even better.

[sgtharveycf]

Are you talkin abiut the same guy here? Maybe, I am not understanding how he is telling the truth about our country! He is using blind religion and the Bible to make his true agenda known! Most of what I hear him say has NO place in a church or a sermon for that matter...how is what he is saying going to save people or bring people closer to knowing the false prophet Jesus! How is he helping any1 with his preaching...just brainwashing

[LordKananga]

I agree. What a beautiful and uplifting service! G-d bless Reverend Wright and TUCC.

[Phil4and8]

To the last several bloggers: did any of you catch the words on this video . . . your peace you give me in times of the storm ... or, I lift my hands in total praise to You?

In case anyone was interested, that's what THIS video is about. If you've just been venting and haven't heard it in a while, take a listen--check it out! Better yet, why don't you let it play while you're writing your comments, and take a peace break, for goodness' sake!

[blackberryjuice1]

LOL, Amen to that.

[EagleinNYC]

It obviously proves what I wrote before:

"AIDS spread because gays had unprotected anal sex and because intravenous drug users shared dirty needles."

I'm not sure why you're having difficulty with elementary principles. Lesbians don't transfer semen, and as long as they don't transfer blood through dirty intravenous needles or get an infected blood transfusion, what would be their mode of infection?

This really is quite simple.

Is there an adult at home who can explain my words to you?

[ragorzor]

I challenge all christians to pray and fast for Obama so God's will will prevail.!!

[COMALiteJ]

Who was it who said recently that Blacks should be GRATEFUL for their ancestors having been brought here in chains as slaves, because otherwise they'd be in horrible Africa right now? Hannity?

As a friend of mine put it, that would be like someone breaking into your house, kidnapping you and your family, making you and them labor at their mansion, and then burning down your house, and THEN demanding that you be GRATEFUL for them saving you and your family from said burning house!

[Lesbiansex9870]

Just remember...in the midst of it all...HE is the source of our strength!

[olbjr523]

COMALiteJ- how can you prove these statements and r u crazy?

[utubekellyad]

Oh no!!!! I hit the wrong thumb. I totally agree with your statement. Trying to figure out how to fix now.

[COMALiteJ]

I also know that our nation has in the past used outright biological warfare against groups that it considers undesirable (read up on the man for whom the city of Amherst, PA was named, as just one example), and long before we used nukes on Japan (including the ONLY PRIMARILY CHRISTIAN city of Japan, Nagasaki [it'd been the main place of refuge for Christians persecuted under the Tokogawa Shogunate] — what does THAT tell you about the idea that America is a blessed Christian nation under God!?).

[Ryooken]

I would like to see evidence of this.

[swtsoulactor]

God's message to His people has now reached the entire nation. As in the case of the biblical prophets, the message/warning is not well-received by the very people it is attempting to save and redeem. We, in America, should review biblical history to ascertain what happens to a people who ignore God's warnings sent through his prophets. The few of us who do this must brace ourselves for what usually follows, God's wrath.

[blackpearl1995]

To woofielove1970: This is not a sermon. It is a benediction, which is praying over the congregants God's blessings in their lives as they progress through the week.

[krs0915]

I love this song & Rev. Wright. When I first came to Trinity, it was the first time I'd heard this song. It moved me to tears. I love u Rev!!!!

[mmike01]

VIVA JEREMIAH WRIGHT!.

Greetings from CHILE!

[kmadisha]

We love you Rev.Wright, and thanks for 30 yrs in the ministry

[4wehttam]

Thank you, Rev. Wright. God Bless you and your church.

[AnonymousBChurch]

EagleinNYC just because you say it over and over again doesn't make it true. Aside from the politics, there's nothing in his sermons (I've watched hours now) that would be out of place in a mainstream evangelical church, black or white. As for the politics, hardly different than the GOP and anti-abortion politicking at white churches.

Aside from "Obama wasn't privileged" and the AIDS comment (he should have mentioned the Tuskagee experiements) I agree with everything he's said, I'm not black.

[oldsoul9]

AMEN

[chinadolljmh]

This is my favorite part of church every Sunday!!!!!! I loved hearing Daddy J preach and sing along with the choir! How anybody could hate on hiim singing this song is beyond me! He's not racist! He loves ALL of God's creations no matter how idiotic and hateful they may be! Stop hating on him! No, no, no keep on lifting him up for the world to see! Somebody will be blessed by your hate! To quote Micheal Jackon in The Wiz, "You Can't Win!" hate on billy bob and the rest of your klan!!!!!!!

[lifesaver1]

Actually originally by Richard Smallwood

[shugavery2001]

EAGLE SAYS :The "government lied about inventing the HIV virus as a means of genocide against people of color" sermon?

SHUG SAYS : You know if you were really an intelligent person you'd realize that it's not just some black that believe AIDS was man made. There are plenty of books that have been published on the topic.

[ChicagoOwl]

The song is by Fred Hammond - Total Praise

[FoggyRoad81]

Actually it was written by Richard Smallwood.

[Auragirl86]

I like this song! Any one know the name and artist?

PRAISE GOD!

[EagleinNYC]

When was this shot? It looks staged for a specific audience. But I do give the Rev. credit. Not once did he say the "n" word.

[austinjs2]

Praise God from whom all blessings flow. May he bless you and your family. I will pray for you because you seemed to have some issues of hatred that you are dealing with. May I suggest you visit go to your local church or even come to Trinity we would love to have you. Be Blessed in the Lord

[southshore07]

Praise God!

[austinjs2]

This was very inspirational especially because it shows how diverse Trinity really is...

[shrinelake]

I'm a white woman who visits Trinity at least once a month for their awesome services! This man is absolutely prophetic. He is after God's own HEART! And by the way folks....this is an emotional appeal to our deeprooted weaknesses. A classic political distraction..the real issue is getting Barack into office to employ real global change. How impressionable!
