@everthealtruist you know nothing of christianity. You just like this man because he basically says God is all love and the only law is "do what thou wilt"
James Talarico is an elected representative in Texas, for the Democratic Party. He has so far been able to thwart those two Texan billionaire “pastors” from succeeding in their attempts to get rid of public schools by implementing a voucher system. The voucher system takes the public school boards’ budget and proposes to pay out a per-student amount to each student, rather than continuing to fund public schools. The wealthy people who are already sending their children to private ‘Christian’ schools [where the curriculum is Christian Nationalism, a political movement, not a religion] don’t need the money, but the public schools sure do. So it’s basically a steal-from-the-poor to give-to-the-rich scheme. These billionaire ‘pastors’ want to dumb down any kids who are not wealthy, by impoverishing their schools thus eroding the quality of the education they can get, and mold the wealthy children into hate-mongering Christian Nationalist Soldiers who will keep those rich men in power in their positions of power. The poorly educated students won’t be able to reach higher education, and won’t be able to afford to get something or somewhere better for themselves. They’ll be the cheap labor billionaires and greedy corporations need to get rich and richer. It’s insidious and evil. Texas needs James Talarico fighting that good fight for them, now more than ever.
@@wilsontexas no, the pastor is simply saying to LOVE THY NEIGHBOR AS THYSELF... y'know, kinda like that Jesus character commanded his people to do. We aren't the authorities on other people's choices, if you believe in an afterlife, that's your respective god's job.
Very good speech, i am not a Christian but it's delightful to hear someone's in phase with spiritual reality. I predict James a beautiful Future and career offering peaceful Words.
As a Christian on the left, far removed from the white nationalists on the extreme right, this is also among the very best sermons I’ve ever heard. I was raised in the fundamentalist Baptist Church, and I’ve seen, and long left that very dangerous and damaging toxic environment.
I am a veteran and a former pastor at a mega church in the South. I walked away from evangelical Christianity and embraced an engaged contemplative life, and I have not been able to listen to a Christian sermon for the past seven years. I listened to this one and stand with every word this brother speaks. I’m in awe of his clarity and bravery in the face of Christian Nationalism and I pray for more leaders of faith to stand with him.
Romans 1:26-27 For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature.Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due. This guy is a nut. I am an Evangelical Christian. Jesus sets people free from crazy anti-Biblical ideas like I found in this sermon.
It's anti-biblical to spread hate and use violence and force to get your way. In fact The reason Sodom and Gomorrah was destroyed was for gluttony, greed,😂 selfishness, lack of compassion and empathy for others along with the host of all other sins by which the Bible says, all are equal.

My church growing up The United Church of Christ at Dartmouth in Hanover NH Was very liberal, they had a woman as minister way back in 80s , and preached openness to gay live etc My dad a Nixon republican was outraged, of course, stopped going to his own loss.
Really? If you find a perfect church don't join it. You will ruin it. Jesus taught to Judge righteously (John 7:24). Please learn this today. James Talarico is a HATER. James Talarico hates Christian Nationalists James Talarico hates Conservative Christians James Talarico hates Trump James Talarico hates Trump supporters James Talarico hates the founding Fathers of our country who went to war with England James Talarico hates Abraham Lincoln who went to war with the Southern States. James Talarico hates Israel James Talarico hates the Bible, i.e. the Old Testament, Joshua's conquest of the promised land, etc. James Talarico hates Apostle Pauls Romans Chapter 1 as it condemns homosexuality. But as a born against evangical Christian, I love James Talarico and hope and pray that he repents of his bigotry and I hope and pray James Talarico begins a new quest to love the Bible and all people of faith in the WHOLE UNITED STATES OF AMERCA, ONE NATION UNDER GOD WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL! COME LORD JESUS. AMEN.

Haven't gone to church for years. Stopped listening to organized religion after years of seeing the hate and greed that permeates the church. I have found a person who sees Christ as the Bible presents Him. Thank you sir.
As the daughter of an Episcopal priest and an Episcopalian, I have heard thousands of sermons in 67 years. This is, by far, one of the best sermons I have ever heard. ❤✝️
100% agree. As a daughter of a Presbyterian Pastor and generation of ministers and missionaries, I too have heard so many sermons. This is one of the best sermons indeed. Amen and amen!

Hopefully we can get this guy over to our side. He said a lot of interesting things preacher don’t usually say. However, he said a lot of silly things too. One can disown Christian nationalism, but it’s hard to separate. A preacher loving the lgbtq and being pro choice and thinks the universe is older than 6,000 years and supports evolution… Christians have a term for this, and it goes like this, “luke warm”. The tribalism is too great. I’m glad someone is bridging the gap. However I’m an atheist and there will always be fundamentalist. There will always be the question; where is the evidence? Why should anyone believe something that’s not evidently true?
I've heard Christian friends of mine refer to Christian Seminary as Christian Cemetery, probably for that reason. I think this man sounds like he might survive it.
Exact same. Grew up in the Tuscaloosa area as a Southern Baptist. Learning more about my religion drove me further from it. He's likely going to leave the church after seminary. If he doesn't, he'll have to pull mental gymnastics of his own to make it all fit together. Seminary is where you learn the actual facts of the origins of the religion. None of it matches up with what the church teaches. Israelites and Canaanites were the exact same people, for one.
On mobile so I can't edit my comment, but I highly recommend "Satan's Guide to the Bible". Besides being hilarious, it's so grounded in actual fact that it's refreshing. It takes the classic "preaching to children", but it's "Satan" telling them the truth.
@@Zargabaath Your book recommendation reminds me of a book by Anne Rice called Memnoch the Devil. It's not based on facts, but it paints Satan as the good guy. I absolutely loved it. I should read it again. I'll also look up Satan's Guide to the Bible. Thanks for the suggestion.
I've been a pastor for 25 years, and it's draining watching people misuse the good news of Christ to justify hate. Your words have actually restored some hope in me. Thank you.
So many pastors have given up their faith in these trying times, and the prosperity pastors are a sign of Christian Nationalists. Very dangerous. Always put Jesus first, he will always be by your side. Jesus loves us because of who we are, not because of wealth, popularity.
@ALBUNDY-r9bDid you heat hom say that Christian Nationalists excludes Jesus in heir doctrine. They are only there for power. Not Christianity! Listen to what he said ,I know you didn't because your comment would not have been what you said. You should have said the GQP wouldn't understand!
@ALBUNDY-r9bNo, it is the Republicans that is confused. We know church and state are separate. What does the living body of Christ have to do with a world system? Why put the church and politics together. The kkk would murder a black and hang their body on the wooden cross. They are confused they are killing in the name of Jesus. It is not about Democrats or Republicans. It is about the gospel of Jesus Christ. I live to fulfil the will of my creator.
I am an atheist and my wife, who died in 2020, was a pagan and wiccan, with that being said, you had me crying not from sadness or grief, but rather for a feeling of love and warmth. You did not change me from my own beliefs, but you made me feel so much better about humanity and that there are people like you that preach the power and the joy and true love, thank you
@@matthewpaulson6497 So will the false Christian with false doctrines. God DESTROYS BODY AND SOUL, how would you spend eternity anywhere with neither? Study your bible again.
This is what Christianity is all about. I’m not religious anymore, but I was raised Christian and to see what it’s perverted to today is sickening. Where did all the love go? It’s all hate these days, so sad.
As a Christian appalled by Christian Nationalism, this message is so on target. Thank you, thank you for articulating so well that this destructive movement has NOTHING to do with Jesus' teachings, and everything to do with these people's corruption of the faith.
So a Christian isn't supposed to love his country I thought our founding fathers were all Christians and praying before they wrote the Constitution remember the term Christian nationalism has nothing to do with Christians who love their country and want Law and Order
Christian nationalism is another attack on real Christianity! In the form of a new age religiosity! And the word woke should mean awakened to the truth! The truth is Christ and the word of God! 🙏🎆⚖️
James Talarico, I am Buddhist and totally shaken by the beauty, intelligence, articulation, inclusiveness, compassion, love, foresight, respect, humbleness, depth, value, …. of this speech of yours. May your path be enlightened and guide you to bring the light and peace to as many others as possible. OM. AMEN.
This is truly a anointed servant of God. Please America heed this message it is so powerful. Everyone needs to search their soul. Please world heed this message. May God bless you.

This one sermon has restored my faith in humankind. This young man would lead me back to church if there were more like him. A true man of Christ has spoken words I've waited to hear for the past 8 years...NO preaching politics just the word of God! I've subscribed and shared this word so more can listen to what this pastor has to say...EXCELLENT lesson!
@@logicrealitytruth I think you need to actually open your Bible and read it instead of just using it as a prop to hold up as you spread your message of hate and exclusion. Because it seems you don't understand who it is you claim to worship. If you did know who Jesus was and what his message actually was you wouldn't say what you just said. In case you're not aware, which you obviously aren't, the most important thing to Jesus was that we love our fellow man/woman no matter what nationality, race or religion they are. Not do everything in our power to suppress the rights of everyone who doesn't look like us, worship like us, love who we think they should, vote like we do, come from the same place we do. People like you want to force your beliefs on everyone else and control everything we do, say or think. The type of Christianity that you seem to consider, "true" Christianity is nothing more than a bastardization of Jesus word and theft of his name to utilize in an effort to control the lives of others while claiming moral superiority when in actuality that form of religion has little to nothing to do with Christ. Christ would've called you out and rebuked you for your sense of false pride just as he rebuked the Pharisees for the same sense of moral superiority they exhibited in claiming to know the will of God while getting the message all wrong. Jesus died for the sins of all people. Including Heretics much like yourself who used the name of God to claim to have the right to tell others that they are sinful while ignoring the plank in their own eyes. I truly hope that before you meet him that you come to understand just how wrong you are and repent for your false use of his name to spread a message of hate and division and beg for forgiveness for bastardizing his message for your own hateful, ignorant desires. This most definitely was a true Christian sermon. Far more true to what true Christianity looks like than anything you're likely to hear from any White Christian Nationalist preacher. Shame on you. And just something to think about before I let you go. The book of revelations says that you shall know them by the mark of the beast which they shall wear upon their foreheads. Can anybody say Red hats sporting MAGA?
I am a Charismatic Roman Catholic and this sermon gives me peace that there are still REAL Christians out there!!! Jesus preached love and acceptance! Love is the way!
@@dianesmith5152 thank you for showing appreciation to a protestant christian. We may differ in what and how things should be but at the end of the day, things are just symbols of this world and to God it is the spiritual power that counts
I too am a 66 year old Catholic and this sermon gives me hope. I’ve been so confused by Christian nationalism, thank you for explaining and allowing me to see there ARE true Christians out there 🤲 Peace be with you. LOVE❤
If this young man can entice non believers like myself to listen to his entire sermon, I suspect believers should experience a life change. Christian Nationalism turns people away from church and religion. James is a remarkable speaker.
I cry tears of joy to finally in my 67 years hear words that reflect what my soul has felt my whole life. I found a way to hold on to my love of Jesus and his message. They say THEY are the Christians and those like us are not. Your message is food for my soul and can save our country.
As a Mom of an LGBT boy who passed away from a heart issue, this brought tears to my eyes. This is how churches should have treated him. How the Christian people we know should have treated him and our family. This is beautiful.
I'm sorry that those who were called by God to unconditionally love everyone failed you, your son, and their calling. I hope you've found connection and community somewhere else.
I'm a born-again gay stoner Jew and know I'll be with Jesus before one right-wing hater. ❤ keep looking up, our redemption draws near! Luke 21:24-28. 1946themovie proves the Bible is mistranslated.
I'm a retired ORDAINED MINISTER & I stopped going to church when the old paster retired after 40 YRS & the new one started preaching tRUMP AT THE PULPIT! I DON'T NEED A CORRUPT CHURCH TO DO ANYTHING FOR ME!
I accepted Jesus as my savior at the age of 10. I'm now going on 73, still loving & following His teaching through the spirit in His Word. My heart has been breaking at the politicization of my faith by Christian Nationalists. Their message is an abomination that endangers believers everywhere. Thank you for your message that dispels this darkness by shining the light of truth on this dark disception🙏
Please,, please everyone vote,, register and vote to save our democracy.... this cancer has spread across our country and threatens our democracy..❤❤❤ vote for decency and honesty and vote against this madness this religious extremism.. thank you❤
Wow! What a brave young man. I have painfully had to leave my church behind because the Cross of Christ has been replaced with politics. Jesus is nobody’s campaign manager. God bless and protect you young man!
@@Floppyearsmomma me too. Where is the love in churches that used to be the norm? People helping each other, and those in need in their communities. I left my church because my spouse and I split up; my family went from four of us attending church, to three of us attending church, to two of us attending church, then to just me and no one ever said a word, no one cared, ‘no one asked ‘how are things with you?’ not even my pastor. They just kept to themselves. I thought to myself, where is the love in this church? and I stopped attending.
@@yvonnelewis4888I'm so sorry to hear this. Thank you for your vulnerability. You matter. You are loved. You are a child of the most high King. So many people have been hurt by the church. It's a travesty. 😢
@@yvonnelewis4888that is sad. So sorry that happened to you. A church should show more love. Even the small church I’m a member of seems to have their clicks. Others hang out together but we were never invited to hang out with anyone. I did message with the pastor’s wife a lot but I’ve cut back on that. I’m not saying they aren’t good people. But I have decided to leave the “institutional church system.” It got to where it seemed fake to me. I would like to have a home church but I need someone who can teach. I would like someone who can teach verse by verse. Not tell story after story. I am happier tho, not stressing about getting there on time or people being nosey about why we weren’t there, didn’t attend the manmade revival, and the list goes on and on. We are taking Sundays to spend time as a family since my husband is at work from 10 am to midnight most days. Saturdays he has to cut the grass and do chores around our home. The kids need time with him. I didn’t mean to go on and on. lol!
I had turned my back on religion. My relationship has become very private. This man finally gave me the words to explain why. I no longer have words to explain my relationship with HIM. Amen!
You took the words right out of my mouth because I feel exactly the same way. I’m just thrilled to hear someone actually speaking truth about Christian nationalism because so many people don’t understand what it is.
I'm a Christian and my father was a Christian minister. He preached of God's love and care for our fellow human beings. He would be APPALLED as am I if he were still alive to see how these Christian nationalists are trying to take over and for what they stand for.
Same for me!! My father would have a “fit” over all of this!! Several churches in our area are in line with this pastor. They are spreading the word that Christian nationalists are not, in fact, acting as Christ would have us act!
Thank you for your comment. Our family is so appalled with the today’s Christians and that is why we left the church. We still believe in Christ. But we cannot be associated with those hate and bigotry.
I grew up Southern Baptist, converted to Catholicism. I am now happily an Athiest but THIS man i will speak highly of and pass on his sermons to others because HE IS RIGHT!
I grew up Southern Baptist too. But stopped going when I started noticing that it was becoming more and more political until every time I went, someone would get up at the pulpit and preach politics. At that point, it becomes something other than a place to worship God and follow Jesus, and it becomes a political social group. I still worship God, and I try to pray every day. I read Christian books. But I don't want to be a part of a RW social group. I just can't stomach it. I could go to this church though. Yes. This is political on the other end. But there needs to be an alternative to the RW social club. And we must call the evil that has crept into our churches, out.
Agree, a million times over. I actually hesitated sharing this on my social media, bc I'm very much an atheist, but if Christians acted and felt like this gentleman, it could be a game changer for the US. There's so much commonality with what I think and feel and how I view my fellow human beings.
I also was raised Baptist till I was ten and I refused to go anymore. In my later teens after marrying ,I tried it again. Nope,what I remembered from a child was the same. I believe in all this young man said and if I had had some one like him? I might ,say might, have followed. But my long years have and what I have seen and heard took that from me.
I am the granddaughter of a Nazarene preacher who grew up in a strict Nazarene family. I listened to hundreds sermons about hell fire and brimstone that left me feeling fearful and guilty. Once I left my parents' home, I never went to church again. Now I cannot understand the hypocrisy of my family calling themselves Christians while supporting a movement that spreads hate, power, and lies. Thank you for giving me back some hope in Christianity.
Your family and friends supporting the evils spoken here, have "drank the Kool-aid " of cultism. Just like other cults, it is almost impossible to help the cult members of Trump and National Christianity due to the power of Satan. They all need an exorcism or two and lots of prayer to the God of Abraham, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit! for release of these demons. AMEN?
When the people said to worship Satan(Satanists in general), end up being better people than the ones said to worship God and Jesus, you know somerhing is fucked up with Christianity.
I'm an atheist, but I appreciate what he said. Excellently said. Thank you for being kind & open, Sir. Let's all be good to our neighbors, open the door for others, help those in need, for we are all in this together. Hugs to all. 🦋🌸
Yes indeed. I still wish he could release himself from having to talk as if he’s taking his thinking points from ‘true christianity’ and realise he doesn’t need the cover of religion to be the good, honest, insightful person that he is. If he was born in any other western country, chances are he wouldn’t have been brainwashed by religion from birth…and he could still have gone on to change the world whilst being a decent human being. 🤷🏻♀️
@@carronaleehe means, Jesus teachings are worthy of telling, bc somebody has to, bc right wing hate mongers are spreading hate and intolerance, which yes, us antithetical to Jesus teachings 💯😎💙
As long as we are NOT deceived in told not to worship. I too am tired of Churches incorporating Politics at the pulpit vs listening about the Gospel. This is so beautiful, bc too many of us are lost as we yearn for our Gospel.
I'm not a Christian but I watched this whole sermon and I have to say it's comforting knowing that there are still Christians that follow what the book actually says. Thank you and may your God bless you always.

As a social justice advocate and a Catholic, this is hands down the best sermon/homily I've heard in years. Thank you for speaking the truth with conviction, yet kindly and confidently. I loved this sermon!
Pagan liberal here. I am sitting here in tears listening to someone in power who finally makes sense. If the way someone lives isn't hurting anyone, why must everyone else feel the need to tear it down, control it, or destroy it? Please keep doing what you're doing, Sir. People like you give me hope for our country and our world.
Whether it is someone's religious belief or what they like to do when the lights go out, people should keep private things private, I'm Christian but I've literally never tried to push my beliefs on anyone, and I'm not going to let anyone push their opinions on me, I don't think that's too much to ask, so if a guy in a dress thinks he's a woman good for him, but I'm not going to go along with the fantasy, it doesn't make me a bad person it makes me realistic, and I consider that a fair trade-off since I don't try to force people to believe in an all-powerful being that can't be seen, it's only fair that other people don't try to force me to address them as a woman when they're a dude
@@LabGoats what discrimination? If I'm at work and one of them comes in I treat them the same as any other customer, I asked him what they want and I'll give it to him and I take their money, but I'm not going to call a dude a chick just because it hurts their feelings, that's not discrimination that's reality... expecting a guy to stay out of women's sports and women's bathrooms is not asking too much, and it's more of a cultural thing anyway, speak to most transsexuals of older generations and they've got more common sense about this, I can respect someone that's a guy that says he feels like a woman and he wants to live his life as a woman but he understands he's a guy in the world sees him as such, I don't respect anything that comes from the far left,
The entire country needs to hear your sermon. I too am so grateful you, a Christian, who is taking a public stand against Christian nationalists. Jesus says we are to love one another. Judgement is the Lord's and the Lords only. There is nothing in God's words about following Christian nationslism, unless, of course, you are a Pharisee. "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. “This is the first and great commandment. “And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself” (Matthew 22:37-39). God bless you and others speaking the truth against growing nationalism.
Did you know that the Nazis supported Christian Nationalism here in the US during the 1940's? WWII vets told us to never forget and too few listened. Very scary!
Their are some real Christians who seen to know the truth about the takeover of their religion, by the people who favor forcing others to their one way of beliefs.
@@waynefisher4712 one thing that struck me about Judaism(at least from a few close sources was that ‘to be a good Jew you do not need to ‘believe’ in god. Do ypu find that an agreeable statement? I’m a contractor with many Jewish clients i love
He does not follow the Apostle Paul. Romans 1:26-27 NKJV [26] For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. [27] Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.
What a breath of fresh air. Not just a recitation of dogma, or old and polished phrases, this man gives the impression of having thought deeply and open-mindedly. I don't call myself a Christian - the history of that religion is soaked in blood, oppression and exploitation - but I enjoyed listening to this sermon very much, and found it heartening.
I'm Jewish, proudly, but I thank you for your powerful words. I'm hopeful there are many more Christians that believe as you. I've never been as afraid for my country and the world. Please keep preaching these words!
@@NikkiVandaI'm afraid not. This man's God must be awfully small to need so much wisdom from false religions and Chance the Rapper. Jesus said "I am the Way, and the truth, and the life. No man comes to the Father, except by me." This man is a false teacher, likely an atheist who recognizes that materialism is inadequate. The purpose of church is to "dwell in the infinite", he says. His hearers are invited to conjure the meaning of the infinite themselves, rather than consult the very Scriptures that tell us who God is.
This man has just talked about my church. I am a Catholic. My priest is a celibate gay man. We celebrate all we take in refugees. We help the homeless. We help the poor here and abroad. This man will make a great minister because he gets it.

Like you, I am a non-believer. But I also found sanity in his words. I just wish those hard right pastors like Greg Locke and Shane Vaughn could see what christianity can be and should be instead of calling Democrats demons and saying this is war.
Ditto! I rejected *man-made religion* years ago, realizing it was of Man and not of God. It is what Mankind wants God to be, in their own eyes. But yes, this man I would listen to. He speaks real truth.

I'm agnostic, so this was the wonderful pleasure of being the first sermon I've ever listened to! I agree wholeheartedly with everything you said. I want nothing more than the best for my fellow human, regardless of their religious views. I'm so glad to see you speak out on an issue I've been growing more afraid of over the years, and it's so refreshing to see more religious people speak out against religious nationalism. This sermon reflected everything I envision a true religion would hold in their core values. It seems like you are part of a wonderful church and community, and I wish you and all your church-goers the absolute best. Let's continue to work together and make our time in this world the best that we can for each other. I will keep doing my part!
You picked a good one, well done! There are plenty of awesome Christians in the world, I promise. They're just not very political (Jesus said not to be) so they're far less visible than the dreadful ones.
Any sermon you agree wholeheartedly with is better left unsaid. Preachers don't exist to make people say "See, I am right and justified and good and excellent"
@@analogia_entis Well, since I wasn't at the sermon and I watched it on youtube, I'll agree with whatever I want do and discuss it in a space I want to.
As a Christian I think the title "Christian Socialist"is more accurate to describe what Christianity should be. For Jesus instructed the haves to take care of the have nots. Great sermon
I’m a cradle Catholic and if he were within driving distance of me I would change my Religion to hear him speak each week. What a motivator and inspiration.

Jeff Oster hates Christian Nationalists Jeff Oster hates Conservative Christians Jeff Oster hates Trump Jeff Oster hates Trump supporters Jeff Oster hates the founding Fathers of our country who went to war with England Jeff Oster hates Abraham Lincoln who went to war with the Southern States. Jeff Oster hates Israel Jeff Oster hates the Bible, i.e. the Old Testament, Joshua's conquest of the promised land, etc. Jeff Oster hates Apostle Pauls Romans Chapter 1 as it condemns homosexuality. But as a born against evangical Christian, I love Jeff Oster, and hope and pray that he repents of his bigotry and I hope and pray Jeff Oster begins a new quest to love the Bible and all people of faith in the WHOLE UNITED STATES OF AMERCA, ONE NATION UNDER GOD WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL! COME LORD JESUS. AMEN.
You know, you don’t have to “change your religion.” All you have to do is listen to him, open your mind and heart to the opportunity to love more. Also, I was raised catholic - and because of all the hypocrisy I found, I gave up religion. But that doesn’t change my faith in God and all of us. 🙏🏼
@@denacarman3740 did I say anyone said I had to change my Religion? No, I said I would if he was within driving distance of me where I could listen to him each week.
I haven't listened to a sermon in over 17 years when I left the church at 21. I saw the title and decided to click on it. This was one of the best sermons I've ever heard. Thank you for practicing your faith and not just preaching it.
Wow, this is the absolutely best You Tube video I have ever seen and will continue to meditate over and over again regarding this beyond great message, thank you
This sermon is not biblical or accurate. Judge righteously (John 7:24). Jeff Oster is a HATER.

I'm a Pastor, and I have been discouraged by what I have seen among many who call themselves followers of Jesus Christ. It appears that many have lost their way in the call to be witnesses of Jesus, the salt, and the light. We were never called to be the hammer, but we are supposed to be the hand. Thank you for this message. It is great to hear that there are many who believe and share the Gospel of Jesus.
Your weak if you by into this blasphemous sermon, Seek Christ and prayer. How pathetic this is, This must be the end times if people and so called Christians buy into this Charlatan.
I hope you don't preach this is in your church. Judge righteously (John 7:24). Jeff Oster is a HATER.

I was a christian for the first half of my life before leaving religion behind to become a worshipper of your grandfather's G.O.D. and I must say, I have never heard such a mesmerizing, well thought out, and inspirational sermon! I'm so glad this video showed up in my feed. Thank you
Mr. Talarico: I am an atheist, but your sermon makes me wish I could believe. Thank you for speaking out against this scourge that is tearing our country apart. Thank you for the wisdom, sir. I needed to hear this today.
Please watch Lee Strobbels " the case for Christ" he too had been an atheist. A friend said "there are no true atheist only a person who can not forgive himself/herself." I believe it is true in my brother's case.
Christ isn’t a part of these zealots who defame his name. He was a renegade who fed the hungry, visited lepers in leper colonies and who loved all of God’s children without exception. You may be an atheist, which is your right, but those of us who worship a living God, love you without any expectation of you reciprocating our love. God will always consider you as a child of his no matter how you feel. Sending you prayers of compassion and acceptance.
Thank you so so much. I personally needed to hear this message from a white pastor/preacher speaking to a white congregation. This wicked, racist Christian nationalism is literally turning people away from true Christianity - especially many in the Black community. To us, it has felt like the Christian leaders that we respected, loved, followed, supported have unveiled their truth in supporting a man that is the pure antithesis to Jesus. It has rocked us and angered us. I believe this is Satan’s aim .. to sow confusion, rage, and dissension as he divides the flock and attempts to invalidate the Good News. My sincere prayer is that God covers you and protects you as you share a hugely-unpopular, truly Christ-like message in these dark and evil days. I pray that your boldness and courage increases even more and inspires other Christians to stand up for Jesus and the Word with equal bravery.
So if the messenger was brown black or other color you would not welcome or needed the message. Listen to how your words sound so almost racist. Yea lets agree with you jesus would not have opened your ears to hear his messsge if ot weren’t coming from a white man. Perhaps you have soul searching to reach. You have some white nationalism good luck cause prayers didn’t help you.
I was raised Christian, and it has turned me away, just as you said. I'm absolutely devastated and heartbroken about what is happening in this country.
I'm not religious because I'm Dutch. We are non-believers. But he is actually someone who doesn't praise the insane plague of "Christian nationalism." Such a relief. I like this guy. I even kind of like this god. Well spoken . Smart guy ❤
I am a french atheist and I want to thank this preacher. I have never heard a speach like that and teach what believing in God really mean. It opened my mind. Thank you.
Just make sure it doesn't open so much, it gets closed...😊 faith like cool aid, comforting to drink but unhealthy in the long run no matter the flavor.
I am an atheist. This brought tears to my eyes, tears of joy that someone in his capacity is so loving and passionate about what is good and right for humanity and this planet. I hope he doesn't change.
I’m Atheist and Trans, and this Christian spoke on every reason I became uncomfortable with religion… it gives me hope. I used to be Christian, and I’ve heard lots of sermons, but this is the first of them that has truly touched me and changed me. The first that was truly Christian. I’ve spoken to my friends and family about this very thing, and he’s said it far better than me or any of us could. Having a term like “Christian Nationalist” makes understanding it so much easier. Genuinely, thank you Talarico, this has changed my mindset for the better.
As an atheist this pastor makes me proud to have people like this as my American neighbors! All Christians should hear and pass this sermon around to everyone they know. And all of us athiests should give love and support for our christian friends who take a stand against the blashoemy of their faith and act as true patriots. Human love to you all and thank you for giving me faith there are still true patriots in the church!!!!
Amen. 🙏 Jesus NEVER said vote. Satan offered Jesus the world if He worshipped him. Politics is not the venue of us Christians, our Kingdom isn't of this world. We are to spread the good news of Christ's gift of eternal life, and let people decide for themselves, never baiting or hating, just showing love. It's God's place to judge and separate sheep from goats. God bless you. As a Christian, I love and respect you. I pray all my fellow believers will act the same way and separate themselves from worldly politics.
@@AJW-c8ihow would you respond to the idea of "rendering unto Caesar" being interpreted to mean one should be involved in government, even if only by voting?
I'm a silly little woman with a Bachelor of Science degree who's been a Christian for almost 50 years, and I find this sermon a serious breath of fresh air. I'm absolutely appalled by the spectacle of so many Christians wildly cheering "leaders" who push ideas that are *directly antithetical to the teachings of Christ.* If you call yourself a Christian, but want to give Christ a "makeover" because the Good Shepherd just isn't "kick-@ss" enough to suit you, you have got a *problem.* Love of country is fine, but *God ALONE* deserves our worship. SHEESH!
I'm the son of a Baptist minister who gave up on organized religion at a young age at near 70 now I thank you for validating holding on to the good I found to live by Great sermon Thank you
😢😢😢😭😭😭😭😭 I’m not Baptist, but I am a Christian. I attend a non-denominational church. For a minute I thought, am I losing my mind or am I missing something? I’m so happy to hear, a non-black Christian minister speak truth to power. To speak the love of God over what’s happening in our country. I was just speaking to someone about history, and what happened during the Crusades. I spoke about the Racism, the homophobism, all the isms…My position, rhetoric church needs to do a better job, believers, ambassadors and disciples of Christ we need to do a better job. He spoke this so eloquently, so specific and truth!!! I don’t know him personally, but what he is speaking is truth, the heart of God, the mission of the Kingdom, the love of Christ. 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Hi, given your mention of the Black Christian experience, could you explain your linkage between racism and homophobism/homophobia given that skin color, phenotype, and ethnicity are not described as sins in the Bible? Thanks for your help in clarifying.😊
@@mahogany6789 ever heard of Jane Elliot ? I love her thoughts and heart. To be a christian is not to be black or white. Christian nationalists worship a white god. My God is a spirit, no color. God bless you
@@darrellvice2010 Their parents are failures. They're scared of their parents, so they're trying to make everyone scared of them, too, using the same tactics their parents use. In short, they're a raging pussy that is screaming into the void begging for someone to notice them. Pay them no attention until they learn to play nice. The best lesson for them to learn is that you shouldn't be rewarded for trying to make other people feel inferior to you. Their reward is attention. They don't care if it's positive or negative. So remove the reward from these people. Let them kick and scream and cry. Let them throw their temper tantrum, and then maybe they'll stop and think after it's over. Hopefully they'll stop and think at least.
I’m the ex-Christian son of a devout born-again Christian Dad abd free-thinking Mom; this guy is the best parts of Christianity almost making me want to open the Bible again. I would vote for him if he ran for office, we need more folks like him, religious-minded or not, in the high seats of government
Can I ask what made u leave the love of Jesus? Was it a human? Jesus never stops loving u and never turns away from u. Turn back to him for ultimate peace and life❤️🙏🏼
Feel free to re-open that Bible. Evangelicals have spent centuries perverting the Word in order to control & oppress people. The real meaning & context you'll find in the Bible don't say anything remotely similar to what we hear evangelical pseudo Christians spouting. 💜
I grew up Catholic, and rejected ALL churches at age 13. Over the following 43 years, I have maintained the open opinion that the highly visible and loud Christians are the furthest from being actual followers of Jesus. This has become even more painfully obvious since 9/11. Religion has always been used as a weapon. It truly hits me where I live to hear this man speak. He reminds me of my dad. Love is the answer.
I grew up Catholic, my mother preached unconditional love but she had so many conditions. I also believe in the right to choose for women, I believe in equality, basically everything this young preacher is saying. Wow, he’s like a wonderful palette cleanser.
❤ Appreciate that. I grew up Christian myself and as i got older and into politics i knew something wasn’t aligning with my logic and the way the average church viewed things so i started to doubt wether christianity was the true way. At the same time i knew exactly that Jesus is love and the things he said as the golden rule perfectly fit with my views. So i would earlier in my life see myself as “less christian” but now i know, thx to ppl like Mr Talarico, that im just a more aware christian with a personal belief in Jesus and not thw fabricated church mass belief.
He gives you "hope" because His God demands absolutely nothing of you. If a father demanded absolutely nothing of his son, you wouldn't call it love, you would call it a troubling indifference, at best

See Gene Appel. He teaches much better. Judge righteously (John 7:24). Jeff Oster is a HATER. Jeff Oster hates Christian Nationalists Jeff Oster hates Conservative Christians Jeff Oster hates Trump Jeff Oster hates Trump supporters Jeff Oster hates the founding Fathers of our country who went to war with England Jeff Oster hates Abraham Lincoln who went to war with the Southern States. Jeff Oster hates Israel Jeff Oster hates the Bible, i.e. the Old Testament, Joshua's conquest of the promised land, etc. Jeff Oster hates Apostle Pauls Romans Chapter 1 as it condemns homosexuality. But as a born against evangical Christian, I love Jeff Oster, and hope and pray that he repents of his bigotry and I hope and pray Jeff Oster begins a new quest to love the Bible and all people of faith in the WHOLE UNITED STATES OF AMERCA, ONE NATION UNDER GOD WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL! COME LORD JESUS. AMEN.
You got yourself a new subscriber, James Talarico. Well done! Huzzah! I pray for more people like you, whether Christian or not; we can all learn a lot from this sermon.
