So sorry Pastor Jeffress praying for you

There is an old church bldg in our town and the residents of it were told that because of the age of the wood in the attic, just overall, it could go up in flames and that they needed to plan on moving out for their safety. It took a few years but they eventually moved out. I don't think these old bldgs of wood last forever and there should have been inspections done on the beautiful bldg...maybe there were. I just feel so sad for Pastor Jeffress and the entire church family. Like he said, thank God, no lives were lost in this fire. Continuing to praying for all. This is the most patriotic church I know, they're always having the military of all branches recognized there, law enforcement, fireman et al. I feel your pain Pastor Jeffress. God is with us!

I’m pretty sure

They will build it stronger.

Christ embraced ALL people Pastor Jeffress. Its sad that any sanctuary would be destroyed for any reason is wrong. However given Pastor Jeffress openly expressed convictions towards other religious communities different from his own, its not surprising.

Pastor Jeffries, my deepest sorrow. 😢 But! The beauty. Jesus Christ is so beautiful and Awesome! 👍No one was injured, and resurrection is here now to rebuild. This is a wonderful spiritual sign, what is happening to us as a Nation. Our faith, and Our Nation was nearly broken and into flames. Almost destroyed. Just like this Church. ⛪️ Now, after The Assassination attempt, and The RNC. Everyone has found their core Soul. They have rediscovered Jesus Christ exists and He is still with Us. And still in the business in delivering miracles.
I believe, He is now getting everyone’s attention. Our Lord and Savior has passed an Outstanding message down towards Pastor Jefferies’s direction. From one President that has completely turned his back from Jesus Christ. His health, his Party, and everything he touches is destroying by the waste side. From another President, who has rediscovered Jesus Christ. The power of prayer, The power in the Name of Jesus and The power of Jesus Christ Words. And, yes. Miracles can happens. I expect, Pastor Jefferies. As a messenger. You, have a lot of wisdom to share from the heavens. Where Christ is directing Us as a Nation? Jesus Christ, now got our attention! ❤️

Acts 7:48-49
Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet,
Heaven is my throne, and earth is my footstool: what house will ye build me? saith the Lord: or what is the place of my rest?

Jeremiah 23:1-2
Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! saith the Lord.
Therefore thus saith the Lord God of Israel against the pastors that feed my people; Ye have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them: behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your doings, saith the Lord.

Ezekiel 22:26-27
Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they shewed difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.
Her princes in the midst thereof are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood, and to destroy souls, to get dishonest gain.

Micah 3:11-12
The heads thereof judge for reward, and the priests thereof teach for hire, and the prophets thereof divine for money: yet will they lean upon the Lord, and say, Is not the Lord among us? none evil can come upon us.
