Fake Rev: Tornadoes Are God's Punishment For Obama's Israeli Policy
Apparently, it is time for a new President because Obama, like Angle and Stoffa, are cursed.
"We seen [sic] with Gracedale what can be achieved through the Lord when He blesses, and we are now witnessing the results of His curses."
I see. So I guess it's a good thing Northampton County voters decided to keep Gracedale or we'd probably all be infected with leprosy or something by now.
If I were a member of AFSCME, USW or the Coalition of Altzheimer Families, I'd be ashamed to let this person speak for me. Mario Martinez' comment that Obama is "cursed" and it's time for a "new President" is dangerously close to advocating violence against the President of the United States.
Yet not one of these people has said a word against this obvious hatred from a very sick man.
Updated Sunday 5 PM: The Fake Rev has taken his post down. Poof! Now, he's busy predicting the end of days ... .

... if he wants Gracedale run by the County, why is his blog called "Saving PRIVATE Gracedale?"
ReplyDeleteMaybe cuz he's nutz.
ReplyDeleteAnytime religious zealots proclaim that their way should be public policy, beware. Religion and politics makes very dangerous bedfellows.
ReplyDeleteI am from District four and I am ashamed Ron Angle represents me. I guess we have something in common.
ReplyDeleteI doubt it.
ReplyDeleteoh nobody thinks he's advocating violence against the president ....i don't agree with his reasoning ,but something very defintely is going on with the weather ....mother nature is pissed about something.
ReplyDeleteSo wrong on so many levels. Where do you even start?
ReplyDeleteGod is smiting false prophets like the false reverend. Gracedale will be downsized and union knuckleheads will ultimately lose, not save, their jobs. As for the weather, it's uncertainty and recurring violence has reflected Middle East tensions (or vice versa!) from the beginning of time.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, God told ME the fake reverend was an asshole in any weather.
God is pissed about people who call themselves reverends without any former study or having a church and who then claim they know what He is thinking.
ReplyDeleteSo how does he explain the fact that no natural disasters occurred during the Holocaust?
ReplyDeleteThis guy really didn't say this? His 15 minutes is up.Please forgive him, he knows not what he says, if he really said it. No one in their right mind would say that.
ReplyDeleteGod already punished Obama and the rest of us by electing a Republican House of Representatives. WE are still being cursed..Thank God for the Ryan budget..The curse will end soon.
ReplyDeleteDear 8:27,
ReplyDeleteIf what you say is true then Stoffa
better duck if he plans to go to church this weekend, lol. He's already on God's shitlist..Angle always had one or two legs in hell before the will thing and Gracedale..He's toast now!!
i'm confused by people's reaction to a person becoming a reverend online...sif you went to a monastery are you a better priest? in fact priest's have done so much damage to the church ....revrends to or whatever your persasion..as for me it doesn't matter he has committed any crimes and doesn't make claims to be someone he isn't. people make thier on choices what church they attend i listened to many sermons about how much money the church needs etc... and made a choice to attend elsewhere if you don't like martinez said it's simple don't read it. religion is a private matter...just saying.
ReplyDeleteBecoming a reverend online makes a mockery of serious men of God. Secondly, would you go to a doctor who got a certificate online after not studying anything?
ReplyDeletei'm a supporter of the initiative to save gracedale. i do not agree with bernie's characterizations of goons and fake revs . let me point out that joel olsteen is not an ordained minister i'm also very hesitant to address anybody's belief system. all that said, g-d would be kept very busy cursing those who curse the jews/israel. furthermore, as a jew, i would prefer that people do not associate such tragedies with the jews/israel in any way.
ReplyDeleteThat's funny, I thought it was the homosexuals who were to blame for natural disasters .
ReplyDeleteNo, God kills American soldiers because of gay marriage. (Google Fred Phelps) which justifies screaming at their families who are mourning them at their funerals. That's tomorrow's Save Gracedale blog.
ReplyDeleteI'm not really a gynecologist, but I'll take a look.
ReplyDeleteYours in peace,
Dr. Fitzwell
@ 11:27 I know all about those kooks. The daughter is a bigger kunt than Fred . She used to call into Stern, her sickness really came out in his format
ReplyDeleteThis Martinez is way off the mark thinking the"lord" gave a flying fuck about the gracedale union scam to begin with
ReplyDeleteNow the Jews are responsible for torandoes in Missouri.
ReplyDelete" Stoffa better duck if he plans to go to church this weekend,"
ReplyDeleteGee, I've always been told church is for sinners, not saints.
Did Martinez think the world was ending last week too?
ReplyDeletei don't think becoming a physcian is available online...all i'm saying why does it matter? you don't have to listen to him ..it's your choice.
ReplyDeleteHe's nuts.
ReplyDeleteEveryone knows it's because we didn't pass Cap and Trade, and the tornadoes are going straight for the "deniers".

Pat Robertson lives! Just replace "God" with "Gaia".

Jesus just called me and says that he is going to lay off people at Gracedale in the next month to protect his Chosen People from a tax increase.
ReplyDeletebernie, i'm going to take advantage of this comment section and address a comment on the saving gracedale site, which appears to be no longer accepting comments. a certain winston smith contends that obama's speech on the middle east is no different than previous U.S. positions. he assumes that i'm uninformed, and that my information comes from fox news. perhaps he can accept the fact that netanyahu is informed, and would not have confronted obama if something was not particularly different in policy. what was different was a U.S. president telling israel where it must start negotiating, and creating a predetermined arab expectation. another comment on that tread found a poll showing that most israelis support obama. if that was true, netanyahu would not still be prime minister as i type; a no confidence vote comes quick in the israeli system. last, and most telling, a third person commented that israel should toe our line in exchange for our financial support, and that the israeli situation is responsible for the unrest in the middle east. israel's first responsibility is to survive. in truth the arabs don't want a two state solution, they want israel destroyed. but if israel wasn't there, all the inter-arab tensions would still exist between the various sects.
ReplyDeleteBernie,
ReplyDeleteMy first comment I was going to post on the 'Saving Private Gracedale' blog and blogger won't allow me to post it there. Hopefully, you won't mind if I post it here, instead? Thank you for allowing me to do such. If it is unwarranted, please feel free to delete it. ~~~alex+

My Brother in Christ - RMM of 12:15 AM,
Please do not be discouraged - "I really don't have time to waste on fruitless dialogue so with this post I conclude my engagement on this topic."
If I may submit some respectful thoughts and alternate ideas to encourage you on your path?
Evangelization is never a waste of time. One never knows when another needs, wants, or God places them in such a situation to hear the Word of God.
One does not dispense Grace. We must be an instrument of God's work, faithfully serving for God's Will. Therefore, (in most beginning stages) one will never know which seed with take a hold and grow.
At this point, one must scatter the seed. Some will not grow. Some will grow for a little while. And yet, some will grow strong (and God Willingly, bear fruit.) But one must remain faithful to his assigned task. Thus, to one day hopefully, have a plentiful yield.
If only one person is reached, that should be worth years and years of toil in the fields.
And if that day never comes, so what? Is it so bad to be a 'Fool for Christ?'
(1 Corinthians 3:6-8) "I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the growth. So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth. He who plants and he who waters are equal, and each shall receive his wages according to his labor.
And I respectfully suggest, to take this time to discern thoroughly.
Although, I do not share your opinion on this most recent interpretation and in your current efforts regarding Gracedale; I respectfully wanted to offer you encouragement in your continually discernment of seeking what may or may not be the truth.
Be assured of my prayers.
Peace be with you, ~~~alex+
When God Talks, Shut Up and Listen
ReplyDeleteLet me give you an example. A couple years ago I signed up to become a hospital visitor for my church. When I first saw the notice in our church bulletin, I immediately felt that I should respond. But, I let it pass. Over the next couple of weeks, the thought occurred to me off and on so I said to myself, "If I see the notice in the bulletin this coming Sunday, I'll sign up."
Of course, it was in there. But this time when I saw it, there was no getting away from it. I finally had to say, "Okay, okay God, I'm going!"
So there I was doing hospital visits for the first time. I was nervous, but I prayed a lot before I went, and I was doing okay. But on my way to the second hospital, I prayed again that God would use me to represent Him to all the sick people, giving comfort, etc.
Right in front of the hospital was a crosswalk with a traffic light. As I stood at the corner I kept praying, starting to cross, even though the light was red. I mean, I was in a hurry trying to get to all those sick people!
Right in the middle of the street I heard, "So you want to represent Me, and you can't even make it across the street without breaking the law?"
I was so shocked by this, I said the most spiritual thing I could think of, "Oops."
God uses lots of things to talk to us. But actually hearing from God isn't so much a matter of if he's talking, but rather, whether we're listening.
Yeah, I guess the Fake Rev. must be right and Jesus "curses" Obama and others with tornadoes that kill innocent people who likely voted for McCain. Praise the Lord!
ReplyDeleteThe whole thing is nonsense from a sick man.
And God smites jaywalkers. Gimme a break.
There seems to be a growing trend of strange ideas and false biblical spiritualism in the Lehigh Valley. Kempton has a few of these movements and organizations wearing smiling faces.
ReplyDeleteMuch falsehood is going on in the Lehigh Valley, especially in the Kempton Steinsville area.
