Elizabeth Warren - Beliefs

(Continued
from
Elizabeth Warren's Religion)
What are the beliefs of Elizabeth Warren?
During her 2017 visit to Martin Luther King's former Ebenezer Baptist
Church in Atlanta,
Elizabeth Warren explained her beliefs about Jesus' words in Matthew 25:40 as:
" 'Inasmuch as ye have
done it unto one of the least of these My brethren, ye have done it unto Me.'
The way I hear that is that, he’s saying to us first, there’s God in every one
of us. There’s Jesus in every one of us. However you see it in your religion,
but that inside there’s something holy in every single person... I hear him
saying, is: ‘And it is every one of you. When the final day comes, that every
one of you will be judged by what you did for the God in others.' "
- Elizabeth Warren, August 28, 2017
Is Elizabeth Warren right?
No, when the final day comes, every one of us will be judged, but not by what we
have done for God. Instead, the Bible says we will be judged on whether or not we believe
what God did for us on the cross
(see
Justice of God).
And earlier in the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus defined
"brethren"
as only those who believe in and obey Him, and excluded everyone else, even members of his own family:
"While He was still talking to the multitudes, behold, His
mother and brothers stood outside, seeking to speak with Him. Then one said to
Him, 'Look, Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside, seeking to speak
with You.' But He answered and said to the one who told Him, 'Who is My mother
and who are My brothers?' And He stretched out His hand toward His disciples and
said, 'Here are My mother and My brothers! For whoever does the will of My
Father in heaven is My brother and sister and mother.'"
(Matthew 12:46-50)
Who are the "others" Elizabeth Warren cares about?
From 05:56 to 06:05 and 06:38 to 6:47 in the previous
video clip,
Elizabeth Warren said:
"I fight to
uplift and protect the Divine in every single person... We are called to be the
defenders of the defenseless. We are called to be the voice of the voiceless."
- Elizabeth Warren, Metropolitan AME Church, Washington
D.C., May 22, 2018
Who are the most
"defenseless" and
