Bishop Who Defied Social Distancing Dies After Contracting Covid-19, Church Says



A Virginia bishop who defied warnings about the danger of religious gatherings during the pandemic and vowed to keep preaching “unless I’m in jail or the hospital” died over the weekend after contracting Covid-19, his church said.

The bishop, Gerald O. Glenn, 66, the founder and pastor of New Deliverance Evangelistic Church in Chesterfield, Va., died on Saturday night, according to Bryan Nevers, a church elder.

Mr. Nevers announced the death of Bishop Glenn during an Easter sermon, which was posted on the Facebook page of the Richmond-area Pentecostal congregation. He said that Bishop Glenn had transitioned from labor to reward.

“The first thing I asked God is, ‘Why?’ ” Mr. Nevers said. “The bishop has touched our lives in so many ways.”

Mother Marcietia Glenn, 65, the bishop’s wife, also tested positive for the virus, Mar-Gerie Crawley, their daughter, said in an April 4 post on the church’s Facebook page. Ms. Crawley said at the time that her father was on a ventilator at the hospital.

“It becomes very real to you,” Ms. Crawley said on Facebook. “I just beg people to understand the severity and the seriousness of this, because people are saying it’s not just about us, it’s about everyone around us.”

The bishop, Gerald O. Glenn, 66, the founder and pastor of New Deliverance Evangelistic Church in Chesterfield, VA?
grin

Psalm 91

1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

Yes, we are all abiding under the shadows of our roofs worldwide. grin

2 I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

Our only fortress is the general lockdown Nationwide.

3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

Yes, we are seeing how Yahweh and his Angels are delivering his followers into the jaws of Covid-19 worldwide. grin

4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

How come he failed to cover this slowpoke with his fluffy feathers against Covid-19? grin

5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;

Look outta your window goddamnit and tell me what you see? FEAR!

6 Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.

Amigo, the threat of pestilence is making even G.Os & Bishops pee their panties all over Nigeria. grin

7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

Gringo, in case you don't know; 20,465 have fallen in Rome (The HQ of Yahweh's Church) and another 23,649 fell in Amerika. grin

8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.

All our Politicians are Wicked but they've been balling since like forever. Look at Buhari, Wike, Rochas, FFK, Obasanjo, Jonathan, Amaechi, Saraki & Tinubu for example? What tha fvck is your point?

9 Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;

Shut up! My daily refuge are 4sticks of cigarette, 2 bottles of Trophy or Heineken & reading sexcapades in the Ashewo Beer Parlour Thread on Nairaland. grin

10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

The evil of COVID-19 is befalling people all over Naija and we can all see it on T.V.

11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

Walai, even Yahweh's angels will all test positive to COVID-19 if they dare to show. grin

12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

Yes, we saw how corpses were bore by military trucks & buried in mass graves in Italy & Spain. grin

13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

If dem born G.Os like Adeboye, Oyedepo, Oyakkhilome & TB Joshua well, let any one of them visit the isolation centers or IDH across the Nation to heal the patients. grin

14 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

Yes, just the same way he delivered Lear Sharibu from the snare/nest of Boko Haram. grin

15 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.

Yes, the way he has been answering all prayers in Nigeria, yet our condition & economy keep deteriorating. grin

16 With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

My friend, go to Rome in Italy - and give them long life. Nonsense!

The most painful thing is that the unfortunate man would have infected many of his sheep before passing on.

Blacks and attitude of ignorance

Ignorance, extremism and disobedience are all traits which can be exhibited ANY human being regardless of race or colour.

... And you wonder why you can't blend with fellow blacks abroad. This nonsense is becoming too much... blacks this, blacks that. I can give you hundreds of links which prove that light-skinned people can also be ignorant, extremists and disobedient but you won't post this nonsense on their threads. Purge yourself of mental slavery and keep an open mind whether you're black or not.
