August 17, 2016 Hate Groups, Religion
As we are repeatedly instructed, God uses hurricanes, earthquakes, tornadoes, and lethal diseases to punish people for sinning. This week the Lord Almighty aimed his Holy Wrath at Louisiana, where among the thousands of people made homeless by flooding is hate group leader Tony Perkins, who reports that he had to escape his destroyed home by canoe.
Perkins is on vacation this month, but today he called into his own radio show to lament the biblical proportion disaster that will allegedly force his family to live in a camper for the six months it will take to rebuild his home. Todays guest host for Perkins show is former Family Research Council vice president Ken Klukowski, who now works for Breitbart.
Listen below as they spin this natural disaster as an opportunity for Christians to rejoice that God considers them worthy of suffering for his sake. And to use this as an incredible, encouraging spiritual exercise to take you to the next level in your walk with an almighty and gracious God who does all things well. Including destroying the fuck out of thousands of houses.

The Wise and Foolish Builders
24 Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. 26 But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. 27 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.

(50,619 posts)Whenever I hear mention of Tony Perkins, I always think to myself, "isn't this the guy who was in Psycho?"
And then I remember Anthony Perkins the actor died from complications of Reagan's Disease and his wife died in the Bushstag Fire.
