Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley Apologizes to Non-Christians
Recently elected Governor of Alabama, Robert Bentley apologized for his comment that insulted many non-Christians claiming that he believed his remarks at the Dexter Avenue King Memorial Baptist Church where as a private citizen and not as a governor.
So what did Bentley say to upset non-Christians? At the Baptist church where Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. was once a pastor, Bentley said:
"There may be some people here today who do not have living within them the Holy Spirit. But if you have been adopted in God's family like I have, and like you have if you're a Christian and if you're saved, and the Holy Spirit lives within you just like the Holy Spirit lives within me, then you know what that makes? It makes you and me brothers. And it makes you and me brother and sister. Now I will have to say that, if we don't have the same daddy, we're not brothers and sisters. So anybody here today who has not accepted Jesus Christ as their savior, I'm telling you, you're not my brother and you're not my sister, and I want to be your brother."
Today Robert Bentley went before a crowd of Jewish leader and reporters to apologize saying, "I did not mean to offend anyone with my comments there."
