Praise the Lord—and pass the ammunition!
An upstate pastor is planning to give away an unholy raffle prize at an upcoming service: an AR-15 assault rifle.
“We’re honoring gun owners and hunters,” the Rev. John Koletas, pastor of Grace Baptist Church in Troy, told the Daily News. “And we’re being a blessing and a help to people who have been attacked, viciously attacked, by socialists and anti-Christian people—the politicians and the media.” […]
“I think it’s sending the wrong message entirely,” said the Rev. Willie Bacote, a pastor of Missing Link AME Zion Church in Troy and a prominent anti-gun advocate. …

Luke 22:36 Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.
HA! I LOVE IT !!
I like Proverbs 22:3
The prudent see danger and take refuge, but the simple keep going and pay the penalty.
I find the numbering of the verse especially ironic.
“An unholy raffle prize.”
When are these boneheads going to understand that a weapon is mindless metal and plastic.It is an extention of the person holding it,and there is where the good or evil lives.
Honest, you can't make this stuff up.
I expect that these boneheads will understand that on the LAST DAY of our existence...and not a second sooner.
I've seen and read enough murder mysteries to know that death can be caused by a myriad of things, not simply a mere gun.
As you so rightly say: the good and evil lies with the person HOLDING the gun. That person has the God-given SOUL, right along with FREE WILL.
HAR, HAR, HAR! Good one!
We gotta lot of "missing links" around here.
Remember: We gotta lot of buffas here!!! (Godfather)
100% and the mutt that made that statement, prolly doesn't even believe in God... just some atheist L#M whore
Next question: Would Jesus carry an AR-15 if he were alive today?
depends on what part of Israel he was going to... if the west bank, prolly would or at least on of the 12 with him
He kicked the money-changers out of the temple and I believe he would not disapprove if we had to shoot a bunch of enemy combatants in order to save the lives of women and children from gory deaths at the hands of islamists and marxists who are both anti-Christian.
Imagine if we had let the enemy bowl us over in WWII?
We are in a war NOW with those who wish to use us as slaves or kill us.
Yeah, the AR 15 is necessary.
Why are liberals upset with this raffle? I thought they were in favor of background checks.
If Gandhi was here today he might!

The BIBLE had a passage about having weapons, so I guess we should have weapons to defend ourselves.
Rev . Bacote I guess wants others unarmed so the youth of his AME church can rob white people.
Does one have to be a member?
don't know... it's on the other side of albany
Missing Link AME Zion Church? Are you kidding me?
