It reminds me of the Matthews' “His blood be on us and on our children.” except in this case we have the video tape https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukYiWd3T9sk The dramatic climax of the the sermon with the prayer, the band and the speaking in tongues and the hand waving, took me back forty years to my pentecostal days. Who knew that an inaugural prayer breakfast could be so exciting? Dave who proselytized me for Witness Lee's thing can testify how susceptible I am to this kind of stuff. Maybe Cahn will let me play in the band. This guy is the new Rock star of the American Taliban! |
Cahn makes me laugh. He says America has turned away from God. Meanwhile he's "brought God" to the capital, and has one of the biggest Messianic Churches "
THE JERUSALEM CENTER - Hope of the World." Here in America, by the way. I repeat, here in America.
And I don't see the turning away from God anywhere. There's more churches here in Kentucky than there are gas stations and restaurants combined. And look at all the mega-churches.
Where's the turning away?
Fear not. Cahn is pulling our leg. But he's serious about merchandising and donations.
