The young man who built a chapel and heads to the priesthood



Lucas Gordia Andrade, 17, is a young man from São João do Triunfo, Brazil, who from an early age harbors the dream of becoming a priest. This desire accompanies Luke from preschool, where he liked to play the game of saying Mass. He bought images of Virgin Mary and saints instead of toys.

At the age of six, Lucas came up with the idea of building his own church, a dream that, with the support of his family, came true when he was 13.

The Chapel Sacred Heart of Jesus and Our Lady of Conception, located on the grounds of the house of Luke, is an impressive building in neo-Gothic style, about 8 meters high, with, 5 Meters long and 2.5 meters wide. The project was funded by the Lucas family, who invested approximately $5000. Friends of the family, who are bricklayers, helped build the chapel following Lucas' guidelines.

That's roughly 16' x 8'.  That's fewer square feet than my guest room.

Megachurch Pastor: God Is Punishing Americans For Biden’s “Rampant Immorality” And Support Of LGBTQs

Pastor John MacArthur of Grace Community Church articulated a stern view of Biden’s leadership during a recent interview, framing it as a divine judgment and a reflection of societal moral decline. America is a nation reaping the consequences of its moral choices, he declared. When a society “turns to sexual immorality, homosexual immorality, and a reprobate mind, God gives them up,” MacArthur said, suggesting that the current leadership exemplifies the punishment described in Romans 1.

“When He gives them up, it means He gives them up to the consequences of their choices, the pastor said. “If you follow that pattern, what you get is Joe Biden, who is the epitome of all those things that I just talked about.” The pastor did not mince words when discussing the personal and familial aspects of Biden’s life, claiming immorality ran “rampant” at an “epic level.” He considers a second Trump presidency a “huge move in the right direction.”

I guess these freewill preaching imbeciles, don't actually understand freewill. Unless their all loving godiboi loves to punish its most cherished creation for the choices they make while they are alive, then punish them again after death.

Do they ever think before opening their shit hole?

Small spaces makes catching those younger kids much easier.

No right wing pastors ever seem to have critiques for the adminstration that got a plague.

I didn't know god was into politics. Ba-bye separation.

That would mean admitting to being wrong, and taking accountability Mister Agenda, and we all know, they don't do that. If they did, the flock might start to question, and that could lead to the idiot pool of donators drying up. And how could godiboi maintain heaven without the greens?

Romans 13:1

That comes into conflict with the notion that the jewish god uses foreign powers to invade Israel when the people of Israel have committed crimes.
The jews viewed Rome as an evil force, as a group that worships false gods.
Also, Rome placed statues and engravings of the roman gods in Israel and this wasn't a source of pleasure for the jews. It pissed them plenty.

Why is that book called Romans? Maybe it was written for Romans.

Anyway, there are other locations where Jesus supposedly respects Rome.
Interestingly, the son of the true god, Jesus, never says that Rome and other countries worship false gods. There must have been a lot of Romans in town but he never says a word to them.
In the case of Moses vs the king of Egypt and his magicians, Moses basically says that your gods can suck it. Let my people go.

Matthew 22:19 KING JAMES VERSION
Shew me the tribute money. And they brought unto him a penny. {22:20} And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? {22:21} They say unto him, Caesar's. Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things that are God's.


Mark 12:15 KING JAMES VERSION
Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a penny, that I may see it. {12:16} And they brought it. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Caesar's. {12:17} And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's.


Luke 20:22 KING JAMES VERSION
Is it lawful for us to give tribute unto Caesar, or no? {20:23} But he perceived their craftiness, and said unto them, Why tempt ye me? {20:24} Shew me a penny. Whose image and superscription hath it? They answered and said, Caesar’s. {20:25} And he said unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which be Caesar’s, and unto God the things which be God’s.

Oddly enough, there is no John version of the above lines.
