"something miraculous will take place" re Hurricane Harvey [View all]

As expected, whole flocks of idiots prayed for Hurricane Harvey to go away, and then some got slammed anyway.

I'm sure there were probably a few that blamed the storm on ex-President Obama, and some were blaming it on President (gag) Trump. Some blamed it on homosexuals. The usual lunacy.

Pastor Naranjo is simply lucky he and his church survived. I'm assuming the church survived.

Fortunately, our new home on South Padre Island survived without a scratch, but it sure was touch-and-go there for awhile. You go to sleep and the storm is just a disorganized mess and wake up to a Cat 1 hurricane that is headed right for you. We evacuated. Fortunately it drifted further north and slammed into the coast just east of Corpus Christi (the "body of Christ" for those keeping score).

Hurricane Harvey: Pastor Refuses To Evacuate Family, Says God Will Provide

Pastor Freddy Naranjo says “something miraculous will take place” so there is no reason to evacuate before Hurricane Harvey hits.

Speaking with Corpus Christi reporter Kirsten Crow, Pastor Naranjo of Tabernacle of Praise Church explained why he and his family will not evacuate, and instead will remain in town during the hurricane:

We’ve faced some tougher and harder winds in the past… I think you know again we just keep praying and believing it will slow down or something miraculous will take place…

I believe this: Many times we move by fear instead of believing God can do something supernaturally, that’s my take on it.

Bottom line: Pastor Naranjo seems like a nice man, but he is not a smart man. Only a superstitious fool would believe that “something miraculous will take place” to protect his flock and his family from Hurricane Harvey, or any other natural disaster.
