PITTSBURG, Texas (KLTV)The stories come from all over the world - people who see the face of Jesus on everything from furniture to snack foods. Now, some east Texans say they've spotted Jesus on a moth. Now, members of a local church show KLTV 7's Courtney Lane their heavenly catch.
From rocks to a Cheeto, it seems people are finding the image of Jesus everywhere.
Now from east Texas, check out this living, breathing moth!
"His hair right here and you can see the mustache and the beard and there's a little slit right there that looks like His mouth and when he would move the mouth would open so it looked like he was trying to talk to you."
Kirk Harper spotted the moth on an RV trailer Monday, and right away could tell it was unique.
"I immediately thought it looked like Jesus and that was what was so cool cause you've seen His face in grilled cheese sandwiches and windows and things but on a moth's back...we thought that was pretty neat."
Jesus not on the wings of a dove, but the wings of this moth.
The RV shop's owner immediately took it to his church.
"It's an amazing thing."
Brother James Jordan thinks the patterns do resemble Jesus better in person than in these blown-up pictures.
But he adds, that's all it is.
"I don't want to bow down to it. It's not Jesus, it's just an image on something God created."
But this creation has become the talk of the town in Pittsburg, prompting Jordan to give this reminder at church.
"The word of God says that all creation declares His glory... but we're also warned in Romans 1 that we shouldn't worship created things. We should worship the Creator."
A Creator which he says can reach out to us in strange ways.
"If He can do that on a little moth, He can do mighty things in our lives."
Members are keeping the moth at the church. They say if anyone wants to buy it, the money would go towards relocating the church.
I see Genghis Khan.
Looks like Mohammed to me
Or one of those ZZ Topp guys
I’ll need to compare that to the picture of Jesus in the Bible.
What page is that photo on?
I see a bat.
but with a longer beard.
I was thinking Atilla the Hun
To my knowledge, I’ve never seen The Lord with my eyes; so how could I possibly know?
What page is that photo on?
Based on the Vacation Bible School posters I've seen, he looks like a young Kenny Rogers.
“Do you see Jesus in this moth?”
How can he be in a moth when he’s about to give his coronation speech tonight?
I think you are right....
He doesn’t look like that. I don’t know what he DOES look like, but he doesn’t look like Danny Devito.
No, but I see an Ewok with his little paws curled in front of him.....
