Holy Confusion (lol) by KunleOshob(m): 11:40am On Jun 25, 2011
I read about a small Oklahoma town that had two churches and one distillery. Members of both churches complained that the distillery was giving the community a bad image. And to make matters worse the owner of the distillery was an out spoken atheist. He didn't believe in God one bit. The church people had tried unsuccessfully for years to shut down the distillery. So finally they decided to hold a joint Saturday night prayer meeting. They were going to ask God to intervene and settle the matter.
The church folks gathered on Saturday night and there was a horrible thunderstorm raging outside and to the delight of the church members lightening hit that old brewery and it burned to the ground.
The next morning the sermons that were preached in both churches were on the power of prayer.
But the insurance adjusters promptly notified the distillery owner that they were not going to pay for the damages because the fire was an act of God and that was an exclusion in the policy.
The distillery owner was furious and he sued both churches claiming that they had conspired with God to destroy his business. But the churches denied that they had anything to do with the cause of the fire.
The presiding judge opened the trial with theses words: ¡§ I find one thing in this cause most perplexing-we have a situation here where the plaintiff, an atheist is professing his belief in the power of prayer, and the defendants all faithful church members are denying the very same power

So called 'churches' denying God just because of money. The above article might be a joke but the truth that majority of churches deny God today since so many of them preach a distorted gospel most especially becos of money.

In fact that distillery owner is safe because it is either the judge rules that it is an act of God or he rules that it is not an act of God.

If it is an act of God then the churches must pay up.

If it is not an act of God then the insurance company must pay up.


Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
