Antigay pastor refuses to cancel church, invites hundreds of people to watch his son be crucified

[Behind the Aegis]

There are currently over 5,300 reported cases of coronavirus in Tennessee, and there have been over 100 deaths, but that isn’t stopping one antigay pastor from continuing to hold church services week after week.


Last weekend, Greg Locke of the Global Vision Bible Church in Mt. Juliet once again defied social distancing orders put in place by Gov. Bill Lee, who recently issued an executive order prohibiting gatherings of 10 or more people.

On Good Friday, Locke held a live reenactment of Jesus’ crucifixion outside his church. He shared a video on Twitter showing his 16-year-old son as the bloodied Christ hanging from a cross, and his 17-year-old daughter as Mary. Locke said tons of people had stopped by to witness the performance, which lasted all day.

----

Last year, Locke, who opposes same-sex marriage, divorced his wife of over 20 years to marry her best friend, who also worked as his administrative assistant.

Reminds me of a local band way back in the late 60's: Pontius Pilate
and the Nail Drivers.

7. His last few comments were . . .

“I don’t serve a dead Jew, I serve a risen savior.” These people are, um, special.

8. I thought

A divorced man could not hold a position in the church. Fundamentally.

[Ani Yun Wiya]

10. That depends

on where one is in the fundament...

[hatrack]

12. Depends on what Gaw-duh really funda meant, I suppose . . .

[Varaddem]

[blueinredohio]

13. Most churches in the south won't let you hold an office or

teach a class much less be the pastor.

11. Another of those hypocritical narcissistic assholes who thinks he is something special.

So he's an adulterer, homophobic, racist, antisemitic prick.

Just the sort of person i expect to be an evangelical sinner.

[OnDoutside]

15. Nice to hear him playing traditional Galilean music in the ground too .... Makes you feel as if you

were there

[Goodheart]

16. "Take this cup from me." A question for which I've never got a sensible answer from any Christian

According to Mark, Matthew, Luke... on the night of his arrest Jesus went up to Gethsamene and in anguish prayed those words.

HOW THE FUCK DO THEY KNOW WHAT HE SAID?

According to the text his disciples were sleeping and when he came back down to them he was arrested... and then had no further congregations with them.

It's all bullshit.

21. My mother calls it a stone age Jackie Collins novel....

[rgbecker]

17. They don't call it the Bible Belt for nothing. n/t
