Did you hear about the day that God delivered a message directly to the politically correct yet spiritually bankrupt crowd in Washington DC?
It happened. It happened on November 14th 2014, in of all places The National Cathedral. It happened in an audible voice with a message that no one could misunderstand.
As it turns out the voice of God doesn't sound like Morgan Freeman, or even a blend of Charlton Heston and Cecil B. DeMille doing a voice over. God's voice sounds a lot like a perimenopausal quinquagenarian Michigander. Don't let that distract you from the message. What was said will echo alongside the great eternal monologs on par with: "Let My People GO!", "Thou art the man" and "Repent or in 40 days you will be overthrown".
The National Cathedral describes itself thus:
Washington National Cathedral is called to serve as the spiritual home for the nation. The Cathedral is a national treasure and an architectural feat, a place of stunning beauty built to inspire. Inside, artwork and exhibits tell the American story of faith. Outside, you can explore gardens and grounds shared with three outstanding schools—or peer with gargoyles from the city’s highest point.
This is a place for spiritual enrichment above all, whether you come here for worship, a concert, a pilgrimage, or an insightful program. It is a place open to all.
It is open to you.It is open to you, especially if you support the violent overthrow of the United States and the death of all those who will not convert to Islam. Which is why in a spirit of "interfaith inclusiveness" they decided to hold an Islamic Prayer Service this last Friday. What they did was set up a big press event disguised as a demonstration of tolerance. Since they were being oh so tolerant, security was in place to silence dissenting views.
Christine Weick, a 50-year-old Michigan woman with flowing blonde hair who lives out of her car, rose from the packed National Cathedral, the hall of halls in terms of religious prominence in America, and moved toward the front of the church.
She pointed to the cross hanging overhead.
That cross seemed to be the one thing nobody wanted to look at, she told WND Saturday in an exclusive interview.
The Muslims had set up their prayer rugs in such a way that their backs were turned on the cross, which they consider an alien religious symbol. Jesus was a prophet but was not the son of God and never died on a Roman cross, according to Muslim teaching. Yet, they found themselves staring at a woman who demanded the cross become the center of attention. She then blurted out the message she had traveled all the way from Tennessee to deliver.
“Jesus Christ died on that cross. It is the reason we are to worship only Him. Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior,” she said. “We have built enough of your mosques in this country. Why don’t you worship in your mosques and leave our churches alone?”
She immediately heard voices in the crowd yelling for security.
What she didn't hear, but I wish she could, is the cheering of her countrymen who agree with all our hearts with what she said and did.
I wonder how long it will be before the religion of peace carries out a fatwa. Personally I'm praying for a brook of Cherith redux, or better.
May God bless Christine Weick and protect and prosper her.
So it's patriotic to interrupt someone elses religion?
ReplyDeleteGenerally speaking no it wouldn't be.
ReplyDeleteA couple of points:
1. This "service" was preformed in a church.
2. They chose to arrange seating in such a way as to minimize the distinctly Christian décor and environment.
3. Islamic Mosques don't let Christians, Jews, Hindus, Buddhist, etc use their facilities to celebrate their religious services.
4. The National Cathedral represents its self as the nations "church". Arguably they should be preforming nominally Christian activities not Islamic ones.
A modern empowered women should be able to voice her faith about Jesus and point to a cross in a church of all places. Why are you oppressing women and free speech?
Exactly. We are not a muslim nation Anon.
ReplyDeleteThey can use their own mosques to worship in and to celebrate their holy days.
They may not have used words to do so, but by using this particular historical date to commemorate, they spit on Christianity and mocked God. He is watching it all.
The Dean of this cathedral is a theological moron who is claiming ignorance on why they are using OUR cathedral.
Anon also forgets the famous show of righteous fury that Jesus displayed when he chased the moneychangers out of his Father's house.
ReplyDeleteIt is NEVER wrong to defend your faith, and may God bless this woman who did.
I've been to that church. I'd say it is forever tainted, and should be destroyed and the ruins salted. And a monument should be erected on the site as a memorial to the abominable things that happen when the government has control of anything to do with religion.
ReplyDeleteIt was the government that let them in there.
I'm not sure how the decision to do this was made. I suspect that the episcopal church had as much to do with it as any government group. The Episcopalians have been on a decades long march towards doctrinal irrelevance. They are one of the leading denominational groups when it comes to promoting a "politically correct" religious faith.
ReplyDeleteI could see any church building owned by the Episcopalians being used in this way, just like they do for gay weddings. My problem comes from the fact that this particular church building is recognized as the "national church". It's not of course, in the sense that we don't all as a nation worship there, or share the doctrinal beliefs of that denomination. However for over 200 years this building has held a unique distinction because of its location in the capital, and because of some historically prominent Christians who worshiped there while in government. It is a symbol and that symbol was desecrated by a religion of evil. One person spoke out against that desecration and I salute her.
So it's patriotic to interrupt someone elses religion?
ReplyDeleteWrong issue. It's not about being patriotic. It is about glorifying Jesus Christ in a Christian church.
It's the "National Church" in the sense that when devastating things happen to us as a nation, like 9/11, or maybe the Shuttle disaster, we have a place where our President can go and lead our national mourning.
ReplyDeleteI think this building in its current form only became finished in the 1970's or so.
Never the less, that idiot Dean had no business letting those muzzies taint OUR church.
In Biblical history, God has inspired women to great acts when there were no men of worth around. Like Deborah.
God has inspired women to great acts when there were no men of worth around.
ReplyDeleteThat hurt.
Unfortunately I suspect it is more true than I realized before you said it.
Just read the stories of some of the women of the Bible and the way life was during their time.
ReplyDeleteIt does hurt that God saw no man of consequence and heart that He could use.
OTOH, think how badly the muslims treat women Res. Muslims don't fear death, but they sure fear embarrassment and humiliation at the hands of those they abuse and despise because of their own ignorance.
I suspect THAT right there is why God sent a woman.
You could very well be right. Another point is that even the American left would react badly to a muslum killing an American women on American soil. Whereas a Westboro Baptist getting wacked would be greeted with glee.
