I can tell you what I think is important here.
Wright and other pastors are not teaching their parishoners the True Gospel. Too many are preaching what will make them popular with their flock, and we see evidence of it in the enormous churches throughout America.
If they were to preach the Cross, and all it requires of us as Christians, there might be fewer attendees. Christ poured out Himself in order that we might receive Him. And be changed because of Him.
This change requires of the Christian to look deep into his own heart. Something not many (if any) of us are eager to do.
But God in His goodness will take us there if we trust Him. And lovingly, He will reveal to us our sin – as in The Revelation – and at that very moment, it is taken from us, leaving our hearts filled with His Holy Spirit.
Wright has cheated Mr. Obama and all his parishoners of that journey. But he is not alone. Most Christian parishes, of all denominations, probably do the same.
