This below, is one of the biggest things that I utterly HATE about organized Religion: 😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬
Ralph Drollinger, a minister who leads a weekly Bible study group for President Donald Trump’s cabinet, released a new interpretation of the coronavirus pandemic this week, arguing that the crisis represents an act of God’s judgment.
The coronavirus, Drollinger argues in two blog posts and a rambling Bible study guide published in the past few days, is a form of God’s wrath upon nations, but not one as severe as the floods described in the Old Testament or the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah.
“Relative to the coronavirus pandemic crisis, this is not God’s abandonment wrath nor His cataclysmic wrath, rather it is sowing and reaping wrath,” wrote Drollinger. “A biblically astute evaluation of the situation strongly suggests that America and other countries of the world are reaping what China has sown due to their leaders’ recklessness and lack of candor and transparency.
”Neither does he miss a chance to condemn those who worship the “religion of environmentalism” and express a “proclivity toward lesbianism and homosexuality.” These individuals, Drollinger argues in “Is God Judging America Today?”, one of the minister’s posts about coronavirus pandemic, have infiltrated “high positions in our government, our educational system, our media and our entertainment industry” and “are largely responsible for God’s consequential wrath on our nation.”
In the Bible study, Drollinger meanders through scripture, explaining the ways in which God may have caused the coronavirus. In a footnote, he hedges on his previous argument that the virus represents a mild form of God’s wrath, noting that, “We’ll soon see a human cure for the coronavirus.” —- Source: Trump Cabinet Bible Teacher Says China, Gay People to Blame for Coronavirus
This is what Jesus said, really, not what some pinhead, who thinks he’s an authority on what the Lord does:
Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also. And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloke also. And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain. Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away. Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
(Matthew 5:38-48 KJV)
If you really want to know about the end times, read God’s Word for yourself, and don’t listen to idiots, like this. I suggest the Gospels; Matthew, Mark, Luke and John and the Book of Revelation. Need a way to read? Try E-Sword.
As usual, many people like to forget the Old Testament and the discipline that God used to correct the nation of Israel. Christianity is not a religion of acceptance to all who sin and want to keep on sinning. If people call themselves Christian and they don’t believe that God allows catastrophic circumstances to right the ship of his followers, you might want to read the whole Bible.
Man, look, I HAVE read the entire Bible! I am Baptist Christian and I’ve most likely forgotten more about the Bible that you would *ever* hope to know. I’ve been saved for 37 years and yes, I HAVE seen it all. What this hireling is doing bringing a reproach to the body of Christ. Furthermore, he is distorting the Gospel and acting judge and jury of the World, and that my friend, is not his job.
Furthermore, he is mingling his Christianity with politics, Government, and Christianity. That my friend is Christian Dominionism. It is a false doctrine and it is, in my way of looking at it, the Christian version of Sharia Law. It has fascist underpinnings and it is a very dangerous doctrine. Christian Dominionism is a creation of Jack Hayford, a Heretical preacher, who twists, distorts and takes Scripture out of proper context to create a doctrine of Devils.
I agree with you, Sin is a terrible thing, and yes, this world is full of it. However, what is doing is assuming the Deity and being quite opportunistic. Christianity is full of these types, both in Pentecostalism and in Baptist circles and it makes me want to wretch.
I totally agree with you!! God allows these events to happen after a people or a nation thumbs their nose at Him long enough. God is good but He is not going to mocked.
