A right-wing evangelical pastor has claimed the coronavirus is God's 'death angel' and says parents 'transgendering little children' and 'the filth on our TVs and our movies' are to blame for the outbreak.
Christian Pastor Rick Wiles, who is the creator of the TruNews streaming channel, described China as having a 'godless communist government,' in an attempt to explain why the country had been hit so badly by the virus.
He noted, 'plagues are one of the last steps of judgment' and warned Americans to 'get right with God.'
The deadly coronavirus has left 131 people dead, with confirmed infections at around 5,568 across the world.
The virus has spread across China and to at least 16 countries globally.
Five people have been confirmed to have the virus in the United States. All of those infected had all recently returned from Wuhan.
The new coronavirus is thought to have emerged from illegally traded wildlife at a seafood market in Wuhan.
On Tuesday, China agreed for WHO to send international experts to the country as soon as possible to help understand the virus and guide global response efforts.
Wile addressed the deadly outbreak in his evening broadcast on Monday, saying: 'Look at the spiritual rebellion that is in this country, the hatred of God, the hatred of the Bible, the hatred of righteousness.

It’s the same thing. Two “religious” nut cases competing with each other.
Catholic priests who molest and those who cover it up dont help
Anymore than this guy
Catholic lay folk arent responsible at least not to me
As an outsider it looks to me the catholic clergy is authoritarian and is not beholden to their congregants
What priests did or do is their fault no one else
But they arent victims of scorn for nothing
Having said all that, look who printed the article. Right Wing Watch looks for things like this to make us look like we are knuckle draggers and are all the same. I don't know anyone that would sit in his pews for 5 minutes. The problem is not so much what one guy says, but more not that many know their Bible. There will be plagues in the Last Days and Jesus mentioned that it will be as it was in the days of Lot when He returns. But what has to come first and in what order do the four horsemen come? Where are the world wars? Where is the world famines? Where is the financial collapse? Next week he will probably talk about the peace plan for Israel, but then he will be saying Trump has to be the Antichrist. If that happens, Right Wing Watch will walk the aisle and recommend his church.

A convenient target for the press, because he is loopy.
Going a little far there, buddy. They are eating things they should not be eating, but not necessarily God’s punishment. Do stupid things, win stupid prizes. Problem is, it affects others.

Eyes will go to key words (right wing, etc).
Speaking for God should always make one tremble. Our response should be “what does God say on the matter?”
The article and my selection are out of context. But I would hope “Repent and turn to God” is in there someplace.
I still assert Fred Phelps was on the payroll of the Southern Poverty Law Center to play a foil, and give right-wingers a bad name.
“the creator of the TruNews streaming channel”
Hey, it’s not false advertising. He said the news was “tru”, he didn’t say it was actually “true”.
So he’s more honest than “TruePundit” in that regard.
Maybe this was just the Holy Spirit’s idea for punishment, and we’re going to get the REAL plague when God the Father gets home and hears about what we did!
Sorry, I’m not seeing how the two issues are even closely related.
If he didn’t say it, they would have to invent someone to say it.
Because he’s not in favor of the state sponsoring perverts to play with little kids, duh.
Because they never miss an opportunity to circulate a stupid comment by a so called religious leader so they can also tag them as right wing.
That's what Phelps and his Gang were for. Somebody paid them well.
I don’t know, God works in mysterious ways. For all we know, God might be pimping a blog on FR!
Rom 1:24 Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves,
Rom 1:25 who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
Rom 1:26 For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature.
Rom 1:27 Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.
Hepatitis, AIDS, syphilis, Gonorrhea, and about a dozen more diseases all are spread by sodomites. Over 90% of all STD's are spread by homosexuals. You can't have sex with feces involved and not expect to get sick.
Google "STD's and see that most of the problem involves sodomy.
If a virgin has sex and gets an STD, within 2 people or so you will find someone had anal sex to spread their disease. Sodomy has been here for thousands of years and is responsible for almost all of the STD's. Rectal sex is an abomination and unclean. It cannot be made clean.
Not enough pastors preach there is punishment for sodomy. There is literally a dozen or more verses that tell you sodomites will NOT see the Kingdom of Heaven. Can a man and women have sex and commit sodomy? Most today think "sodomy" is for homosexuals only. Sex education today in grade schools teach anal sex is a way of contraception. Porn will show women having anal sex and then having oral sex right after. Can that be made "clean"?
God, as usual is just saying the obvious.
Wiles is a rabid anti-semite too.
Steer clear of this one.
