Holy Crap. Clearing the Path for Hillary.
Robert Jeffress is the pastor at the Dallas First Baptist Church, a congregation of 11,000 members.
He’s a stinker who can deliver hate-filled messages with a sweet Christian smile. His speaking style is first cousins to Lindsey Graham.
He hates Barack Obama and believes that the President is a Muslim.
Here he is on Fox News explaining the Obama War on Easter.
Well, things have heated up since then and while Pastor Jeffress says that he doesn’t believe that President Obama is the anti-Christ because his poll numbers are too low, President Obama is clearing the path for the anti-Christ.
“My thesis is, people will have been conditioned long before the anti-Christ comes to accept governmental overreach, and that’s what you’re seeing with President Obama.”
He said the end times were predicted in the Old Testament Book of Daniel and the New Testament Book of Revelations.
“Even Jews look forward to it,” Jeffers told O’Reilly.
Hey, not me. I do not look forward to it. I’ve read Revelations and it scares the crap outta me. I do not look forward to watching people get tossed into the pits of hell and burning forever. Oh holy crap, maybe I’m the anti-Christ.
Thelma says that Jeffress is just clearing a spot for Hillary, so that he can preach that she is the true anti-Christ. I think Thelma make a good point.
Thanks to Irene for the heads up.
I earned a Bar Mitzvah and I eat corned beef on rye bread, not white. Contrary to the Pastor’s assertion, I do not look forward to end times. I do not even look forward to my own end. Shalom
1I myself cannot wait for them either, because once the Rapture happens, either I won the raffle for a ticket to the Heavenly Choir concert where there is no festival seating and they bring beer and snacks right to your chair (highly unlikely)
OR
all these holier in the head than thou types will get raptured up and I get “Left Behind” and we can finally get something done around here!
It’s a win-win for me.
2Right after they discuss that the president took his family to church on Easter Sunday the preacher says that the president is ignoring Christianity.
First, no one in America can ignore Christianity. I’ve tried for years, and I know that it is impossible to ignore Christianity in America. You just can’t do it.
Second, if participating in Easter rituals is equivalent to ignoring them, the preacher is just as guilty since he did the same thing the President did.
I’m confused.
3Well daChip, you paint a rosy picture. I think I like option 2 better – I’m not a real big fan of those rapture folks and not sure I want to go anywhere they are going! And like Mr Weinstein, I have my own personal end to worry about. (man, NOTHIN like a good Reuben on rye or pumpernickel! Yum!)
I was always enchanted by the idea of seeing the Son of Man returning with power and the clouds of heaven, however. It’s a thought…
4Just imagine, 11,000 clones of this guy wandering the streets of Dallas….
5I guess some things just don’t change. Maybe it’s in the founding documents of Dallas First Baptist that their pastor always has to be a right-wing dipstick, a la W.A. Criswell. Those of you of a certain age and knowledge of Dallas know what I’m talking about.
6Op-Ed:
They’d be oh so wrong…
Old Testament = the first beta, got a few problems, needs work.
New Testament = Production release, ready for prime time.
Nobody gets left behind.
7@ da Chipster- the thing these thumpers and jumpers never consider is that after they’re gone to that big experimental ballet in the sky all their stuff is belong to us. I just hope I run across the hoard of some discerning believer who’s left the keys in their fully gassed up Porsche 959.
8Again with the complete ignorance of separation of church and state. No U.S. president should be making religious decrees.
9And no rwnj preacher should be making political pronouncements. Wish I could get my hands on one of those special “chocolate” pies from The Help and whale it at this fool.
Thinking of this guy and Pat Robertson, I’m beginning to think that senility is a transmissible disease among right-wing religious wingnuts.
10donquijoterocket, right on! I’m not keen on the Porsche. Never have been. But I will take in all the dogs and horses these macadamias leave behind to starve.
11I can’t watch the video because a) this computer cost good money and I don’t want to ruin it by putting my forehead or fist through the screen and b) I think it’s rude to stare at mentally ill people if they start foaming off in public.
Religion attracts some good people. Unfortunately those other bigoted self-righteous morons it attracts are the ones who make nearly all of the noise.
12maggie, I’ll help out with the cats.
13@ Maggie- I’ll help with the cats too,but that Porsche is the production model of their Paris/Dakar rally vehicle.There’s damn few in the world, they are special.I don’t hold out much hope that any of the bible thumpers or jeesus jumpers ever heard of the thing,much less had the wherewithal to buy one and to leave it sit,ready to go when they’re whisked away. But one ought to wish and dream big.
14When the last “leader” of the 1st Baptist Church here in Dallas passed on he didn’t leave a Porsche. He just left behind a boring 4 door sedan. Actually, he left two – they were Bentleys.
15Maybe the Rapture will get these people out of our hair. Every cloud has a silver lining.
16Actually, someone should tell the Good Rev that the Rapture has already happened, and that he and his followers were left behind with the rest of us! That should curdle him!
17Can we please be finished with the “Revenge of the sissies” and make this little man go away? NO, I’m not saying he’s gay, I would not do that to my tribe(Love that word), he’s just a big ole sissy.
18But Funny Anti-christ story –
I once had a whacked out Psuedo- scientific Astrologer offer to do my “Chart” on her new Super computer thingamabob.
So I gave her all my info, and 15 minutes later she called back, left a message on my machine saying I was the Anti-Christ and to NOT call her back….So get in line folks…..Teehee
Christians…Listen up:
Do not listen to talking snakes!
