Gov. Andrew Cuomo: More Powerful Than God? "We brought the numbers down. God did not do that, faith did not do that..."

Doesn’t seem to be a thoughtful, circumspect statement by the guv’nah.

[marktwain]

He is only stating Progressive doctrine.

Belief that there is no God, or that God does not interfere in the Universe any more, is one of the core beliefs of Progressives.

[BBQToadRibs]

I’d remind the Governor “The rain falls upon Saints and Sinners alike.”

[RatRipper]

God’s ways are not our ways. . . To paraphrase some of the wisdom writers, has AC built a mountain, hung the stars in the sky?

Man’s wisdom is foolishness to God. . . AC should have an appreciation for what he DOESN’T know.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Yeah how did that work out for The Beatles?

[chopperk]

Mr. Governor,

Did GOD make NY a sanctuary state? Maybe the Gov will do it again so NY can have several thousand New Yorkers die from Covid 19,

Concise synopsis.

"We brought the numbers down. God did not do that, faith did not do that..."

I can't help a bit of skepticism that Gov. Cuomo actually said and meant that. Certainly he is aware that all man's achievements are merely God working through man.

On the other hand, Cuomo apparently keeps a picture of mass-murderer Che Guevara in his home.

Contrast all this with President Donald Trump, who prays to God for guidance and presents Easter to the American People as inspiration for prevailing over the current pandemic, convinced that rebirth and renewal await us.

[1Old Pro]

Like John Lennon, he claims to be “more famous than Christ”.

Cuomo is as worse as they come. Absolute Leftist, no exceptions.

[DannyTN]

Cuomo is right about one thing.

He’s not going to Washington.

RE: I’d remind the Governor “The rain falls upon Saints and Sinners alike.”

Cuomo might be Roman Catholic as he still calls himself, but he is in effect, functionally atheist.

[Savage Beast]

"Someone should remind the governor... Pride goeth before a fall."

Yes. Talk about hubris!!!

[Peter ODonnell]

This is a bit like the Bengals holding a victory parade after their 2019 season.

[Mathews]

Yikes... somebody needs to remind him of Sodom and Gomorrah.

[Boomer]

Cuomo has Napoleon syndrome.

RE: Yikes... somebody needs to remind him of Sodom and Gomorrah.

Errr... they couldn’t find even 10 righteous people in those cities. I’d like to believe that there are still millions of righteous people in the state of NY

"We brought the numbers down. God did not do that, faith did not do that..."

"21 On an appointed day, Herod dressed himself in royal clothing, sat on the throne, and made a speech to them. 22 The people shouted, 'The voice of God, and not of a man!' 23 Immediately an angel of the Lord struck him, because he didn't give God the glory. He was eaten by worms and died.” (Acts 12:21-23).

I am so glad we’re leaving this God forsaken state.

[freedomlover]

Something like a “We’re more popular than Jesus” moment. That didn’t go very well for the Beatles.

---

Except he really means it. I think that John said that tongue in cheek, or as an indictment of the culture of the time.

Ask yourself right now, is Lady Ga Ga more popular than Jesus? I would say so, as far as “Popular” goes . . .

God has a way of showing people like that who is really in charge.
Why do the nations conspire[a]
and the peoples plot in vain?
2 The kings of the earth rise up
and the rulers band together
against the Lord and against his anointed, saying,
3 “Let us break their chains
and throw off their shackles.”
4 The One enthroned in heaven laughs;
the Lord scoffs at them.
5 He rebukes them in his anger
and terrifies them in his wrath, saying,
6 “I have installed my king
on Zion, my holy mountain.”

Psalm 2

Galatians 6:7 King James Version (KJV)

7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
