Bishop Jim Lowe joined Glenn today on TV to discuss why God, love, and respect should be at the center of the protests around the nation.
Following events in Charlottesville, Virginia, over the weekend, the hateful rhetoric, and increased unrest, the bishop did not mince words when it came to diagnosing the state of the nation.
He harshly criticized todayâs activists and pointed out the fundamental characteristics they lack that civil rights leaders of the 1960s were admired for, saying, âIf you do what Martin Luther King did, civil disobedience was also based upon a principle that was number one in civil disobedience: love and respect for every individual.â
âThey were led by spiritual leaders. Where are the spiritual leaders in what we see thatâs going on now? In fact, thereâs no reference to love. Thereâs no reference to God in these things. Itâs based upon what a man thinks his right. And remember, the Bible has taught us when everyone goes their own way, thereâs going to be chaos. Thereâs going to be confusion. And people are going to suffer, because itâs not based upon the fundamental principle of who God is, and thatâs love,â said Bishop Lowe.
