TRENDING: At rally, Beck positions himself as new leader for Christian conservatives

Among those surprised by all of conservative TV host Glenn Beck's recent religious talk - including at Saturday's Washington rally, where Beck said that "America today begins to turn back to God," - is the Rev. Richard Land, a Southern Baptist leader.

"I've been stunned," said Land, who directs public policy for the Southern Baptist Convention and who attended the Saturday rally at Beck's invitation.

"This guy's on secular radio and television," Land said Saturday, "but his shows sound like you're listening to the Trinity Broadcasting Network, only it's more orthodox and there's no appeal for money ... and today he sounded like Billy Graham."

Interesting, isn't it?

What do you think this means?

[olivet]

Beck said he was prepared to die for the truth and this country


Humanae 14). Service of and witness to the faith are necessary for salvation:
“So everyone who acknowledges me before men, I also will acknowledge before
my Father who is in heaven; but whoever denies me before men, I also will deny
before my Father who is in heaven” (Mt 10:32‐33).

But, Beck, a Mormon?

[olivet]

You cannot be a Mormon if you drink.

He is also a productof AA, christian in nature, AA is a work of the Holy Spirit

 

Where were the christian leaders ???except for the niece of Martin Luther King who heads Priests for Life

[Ruth Ann]

There were pastors there. He had no priests though. He used to be Roman Catholic.

He is an interesting man. Driven by??? what?

But seems to be doing good for our country. Of course God uses whom he will.

See the rally

There were pastors, priests, rabbis and a few imams

Some shouted Beck Palin for President

There were One Half Million gathered

[Ruth Ann]

I saw estimates of 300K to 500K.

However, NBC said 87,000. 

[olivet]

NBC has never recanted as far as I know.......Beck's ability to draw so many was trivialized.  They put him down

[a2jgrammy]

I think Beck is wanting moral values to return to the USA

Is he perfect, no, but he is heard!

Grammy

I agree with you 100%

But he has not tackled the abortion issue,staying clear of this minefield so far on his show
