My state is clearly infested with religioius ne'er do-wells and miscreants. :mad:
First the West Memphis 3 witch hunt, then our evangelical Governor answering God's calling by taking a stab at the Presidency, now this!
Do you guys know who Tony Alamo (http://www.alamoministries.com/) is? He's an evangelical, catholic-hating, polygamy-loving, mass-suicide touting, bible-thumping madman. He's decided to come back home to Arkansas after his prison stint was completed. Though he hasn't yet resorted back to re-opening his "non-profit" church-based rhinestone jacket business where those in his congregation work slave labor for $10 a week, he's already building his compound back up. If you can imagine a church that requires armed guards to stand at it's doors to stave of "interlopers", then you've got a pretty clear picture of Tony Alamo's ministry. He also has a blatant disregard for the statutory rape laws of this state:
“God commanded young women to marry. And when women start their periods, then they are women, according to God's Word.” His sermons go on to say, “Women should be able to marry if they have someone who has a job and can support them. They should be able to be married at 13-, 14-, or 15-years old, or if they have menstruated, at 12-years old."
He's 73 years old and not in the greatest of health. I'll wager any one of you here that he plans on going out with a huge bang, all in the name of his service to his Lord. Just you hide, and watch! He believes he's a prophet appointed from on high:
When the voice of God is speaking through members of the body of Christ, God’s church here on earth, even the angels in Heaven know they must listen. Every genuine member of the body of Christ is a confessor of the true God, one in whose confession the will and purpose of God in Christ Jesus is both testified and prophesied of.47 This means every genuine Christian is a real prophet that God continuously speaks through. Every genuine Christian is a true career Christian. They are Christian confessors who prophesy against the wickedness of the world, who prophesy on the necessity of godliness, and who prophesy on the way to salvation in Christ, which is Christ living and working both in us and through us by faith.48
Some people take issue with the fact that God, Jesus, myself, and other saints of God make known the wickedness of the world that needs reproving. Those who say such things are not members of God’s church. They are not prophets. They are either those who need to be saved and will be saved, or those who will surely be destroyed, those who will be rejected by God, then cast into Hell for eternity in the lake of fire.49
