ugh.. reminds me when my ex was disfellowshipped.... he was on a country road at dusk and a motorcycle wrecked hurting the biker..... he stops and the next car to go by was his brother and sister in law.. he tried to wave them down for them to go call for help while he stayed with the hurt man but they gave him a hard stare and kept on driving.. good thing the guy just had a busted leg and not life threatening injuries! The next car that came by (good worldly people) stopped and helped my ex get help for the injured man. i was ENRAGED at the time.. for all his bro knew , my ex was hurt.. could have had any of our 4 kids and they could have been hurt..... but at least their good christian conscience is clean since they did the godly thing and ignored him and went on.
(and yes they did see him, and when confronted just brushed it off and said you know we wont talk to him till he's reinstated)
Why does this remind me of the Good Samaritan story? Oh, now I remember... because the hypocritical priest (minister) kept walking right past the injured man.
He musta been waiten on Jehovah for a ride .
Yup, and when Jehover provided him with a ride he refused. Remindes me of a joke....
During heavy flooding caused by La Nina, a priest refused to obey evacuation orders and decided to stay back in town. As the flood waters rose higher, he climbed to the roof of his house and started praying to God for help. After an hour of devout praying, a boat came by. The priest refused the boat crew's help. "God will come to my assistance," he said. And he remained on the roof of his house. After another hour praying, a canoe came by. The priest refused the owner's help. "God will rescue me," he said. And he remained on the roof of his house. After yet another hour of prayer, a helicopter flew by. Yet again, the priest refused help. "God will help me", he said. And again, he remained on the roof of his house. Despite continuous praying, the flood waters rose and the priest eventually drowned in the raging water. In heaven, he met God and asked Him, "Why didn't you help me? I called for help and you didn't answer my prayers!" "Didn't the help arrive? I sent a canoe, a boat, AND a chopper to your rescue!"
