This Church Is Going Viral For Their Openness And Their Sign Game Is Epic (56 Pics)

For too long now, people have used religion as a weapon or tool to justify their own narrow agendas. Raised as a Christian, I was taught that God was loving and merciful. Jesus wanted us to welcome and embrace our neighbors no matter who they are, and open our homes and hearts to strangers in need. Too many so-called Christians spread messages of hatred and division, using the moral justification that Christianity provides for power and control, whilst acting in ways which are completely anathema to the teachings of the Gospel.

Clackamas United Church of Christ is reclaiming the original, inclusive message of Christ by practicing what they preach. Pastor Adam welcomes all to his sermons with love and acceptance regardless of race, religion, sexual orientation or any other the other ways we choose to divide ourselves as human beings.

"God loves you relentlessly and eternally because God is love," is one of Pastor Adam's core principles. The fact that this kind of open-hearted approach is going viral, as opposed to simply being the norm, tells you everything about the direction that many churches have taken. The Pastor's signs preach a loving and progressive worldview that, for me at least, is what Christianity should be all about.

Scroll down to see how Clackamas United Church of Christ choose to spread the Word of the Lord, and let us know what you think in the comments!

  1. Lady Gaga? Hmmmmm.... But I am really glad you all didn't praise the Talmud! And please never do! Gittin 57-says Jesus is burning in hot excrement in Hell for eternity. So please do NOT refer kindly to the Talmud!

  2. Perhaps this church is different, but so far, every time I hear a Christian say things similar to these messages above, there is always one problem. The people saying these things are thieves. They favour political solutions to the things that they ought to be paying for themselves. Do you want to support immigrants? Fine, but spend your own money. Don't pass laws that force ME to pay for what YOU think is a good idea. Remember that all taxes are collected under the threat of violence toward those who don't comply. When those taxes are used for purposes not explicitly authorized under the Constitution, then it is a double theft.
