They’re even explicit about the reasoning. Because they want you to believe that if you disagree with the church, you are actually disagreeing with Jesus.

These are the men Jesus warned us about. He knew there would be men just like this who use his name to cement and grow their own selfish power.

I really don’t know how they sleep at night.

Is this not a valid example of taking the Lord's name in vain?

It’s so disturbing how the church is handling the crisis of confidence in their leadership.

Rather than change policies to protect children, they claim they’re already the best at protecting children.

Rather than admit they are ever wrong, they claim they’re now speaking as if they are Jesus Christ himself.

Rather than admit members are leaving in droves, they say the church is growing faster than ever.

It’s become an Orwellian farce at this point.

sorry, I am lost. when did this person tell whom to substitute church for Jesus. How does that connect with the old quote about Black people and the church.

Isnt the general idea what the church has always proposed?

Another deep insight from the Reddit thread:

“If the church and the savior are interchangeable, isn't the church just worshiping itself at this point?”

Is there a link to the video, talk, or whatever the source of this quote is?

Meh. He says something close, but the meme overplays the emphasis. Timestamp 19:18 here:

It's also clear he means for it to provide a hypothetical perspective. That's way different than the headline the meme asserts.
