Street Preacher Has Bible Torn To Shreds At Seattle Pride

Street preacher Matthew Meinecke’s Bible was torn to shreds after he read its contents aloud at Seattle Pride on Sunday, according to footage from the event.

Meinecke who is also known was the “The Seattle Preacher” was barked at and taunted by attendees who waved transgender Pride flags in his face as he attempted to read the Bible, video showed. Other attendees at Seattle Pride included naked men riding bikes, furries and nude adults standing in fountains in front of children.

“Have fun doing this at a Pride event when no one wants you doing this,” the Bible-tearer can be heard saying to Meinecke in a video shared by Jonathan Choe, a journalist for Discovery Institute.

Security and the attacker’s friends can be heard asking the person to stop.

In a video taken by Katie Daviscourt, reporter for The Post Millennial, Meinecke can be seen standing and reading his Bible while he is barked at by Pride participants.

In another video from Choe, Meinecke is asked to leave by security for “protesting” and “demonstrating” without a permit.

“It’s religion, man. You can’t discriminate based upon my religion,” Meinecke said in the video posted by Choe.

Security and Pride attendees can be seen gathering around Meinecke and alleging that he was carrying signs in protest.

Meinecke is not new to reading the Bible at Pride events, as he was arrest twice in 2022, once for being at a Pride event and the second time while at an abortion rally, ChurchLeaders reported.

His Bible was torn apart “kicked around like a soccer ball” and thrown in a portable toilet, according to ChurchLeaders.

Seattle Pride did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.

Sounds about right. They mock God, so why would they even care about His Word?

I pray that this man was able to touch one soul that day.

Scientists keep claiming that Seattle’s too far away from Mount Rainier to be affected if it erupts (60 miles), but lahars have traveled that distance and further.

“Isaiah had been very willing to take on the job — in fact, he had asked for it — but the prospect put a new face on the situation. It raised the obvious question: Why, if all that were so — if the enterprise were to be a failure from the start — was there any sense in starting it? “Ah,” the Lord said, “you do not get the point. There is a Remnant there that you know nothing about. They are obscure, unorganized, inarticulate, each one rubbing along as best he can. They need to be encouraged and braced up because when everything has gone completely to the dogs, they are the ones who will come back and build up a new society; and meanwhile, your preaching will reassure them and keep them hanging on. Your job is to take care of the Remnant, so be off now and set about it.”

Why so much hatred and even violent acts being perpetrated, by those who lecture us about how love trumps hate?

Hey blue line lovers.
1. Did the police protect this man’s right to his religion? NOPE
2. Did the police protect his rights to gather and redress his grievances and protest? NOPE
3. Did the police arrest the criminals? NOPE
4. Why do police arrest him? They don’t stand for the Constitution anymore.

Why would you support people who violate their oaths?
It’s not all cops, but if you have bad cops and the good ones do nothing, they are all bad cops then.

My dad was a career police officer in multiple states and multiple agencies for over 30 years. He is rolling in his grave at 10,000 RPM over these crimes. He died as a Sheriff deputy.

Yep, open assault and destruction of property while denying his God given right, as protected in the constitution, to peaceably exercise his religion and free speech.

All done with the blessing of the tyrannical government of Seattle.

Virtually identical to the days of Sodom and Gomorrah.

The Babylon Bee had a satirical piece on FR yesterday about the Seattle Pride Parade.

They said all the men in jail for exposing themselves to children will be released to participate in Pride Parades!

Prediction: The Bible will soon be banned as “hate speech”, despite it being all about God’s love. People want to wallow in their sin.

Yeah, I got rid of it all a long while ago too, it all changed when the uniforms went from white and blue shirts to the all black or GI Joe look where they want to be batman instead of peace officers.

I love the Bible, but it is just paper and not an idol. Burn it and it will still exist. These are insane people.

Are these the same sexual weirdos the left sees as 'hiding in the shadows'?

They would never desecrate the quran (or koran, depending on how you choose to spell it) that way.

“...God given right...”

God doesn’t give a person the right demonstrate no matter what the topic is, man does. Mr. Meinecke has a history of demonstrating at other people’s events and has been arrested for doing so. So he was fully aware of what could happen if he did the things he did.

“Meinecke is not new to reading the Bible at Pride events, as he was arrest twice in 2022, once for being at a Pride event and the second time while at an abortion rally, ChurchLeaders reported.”

If he wants to do an event then get the permit and do his event and he should be protected from disallowed counter demonstrations at his event. Ones for him that he has been arrested for.

But he is playing directly into their hands by offering himself being made the villain by the media and creating a situation that further demonizes the cops by doing their job, the same one they would be required to do for him if the roles were reversed.

That’s been Satan’s goal all along. Question/undermine the Word of God. And we’re seeing how the demon possessed folks respond when they hear the Word.
