Pastor Condemned for Invoking 'Curse of God' On Those Who Defeated Donald Trump

A Kentucky pastor has been condemned for invoking the "curse of God" upon the people he believes "stole" the presidential election.

Bob Rodgers of the Evangelic World Prayer Center in Louisville delivered the prayer during a Sunday church service.

"Father, those that have lied, those that have stolen this election, those that have cheated, I place the curse of God upon them," Rodgers said during the televised service, as reported by WDRB. "I curse you with weakness in your body. I curse you with poverty. I curse you with the worst year you've ever had in the name of the Lord."

The service was streamed live to the church's YouTube account and other social media pages, but has been taken down following condemnation from other faith leaders and members of the community.

Did he wear a mask, sacrifice a chicken and smear the blood on himself too? What he's preaching isn't Christianity.

People's choice of Joeseph R. Biden Jr.," just a slight correction. But the rest of it works. Can we include this idiot pastor in this?

Seems like each and every member of his church doesn't deserve to be cursed by him.
