The information that had been spreading was that the church supported gay pride, was struck by lightning and burned. This is 100% true.

This is God’s wrath. When God said He will send down His wrath in many ways, He’s not kidding

Let us serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear. For our "God is a consuming fire. " Repent before is too late. Without holiness, no one can see God.

Maybe India shouldn't be covering American news? This church was earlier celebrating gay pride and was struck by lightning from God after doing so. I haven't seen anything saying there was a gay wedding.

God is great, I've been attracted and with women for years, I felt like I couldn't help it cause I let temptation and lust get the best of me, even tho it's hard, praying helps, god helps if you really want to change, pray and do what is right. I LOVE YOU JESUS CHRIST ❤❤❤

There are two different churches in the video. The first looks more like the inside of Westminster Abbey... not saying it is, just the layout looks similar... and the church that burned to the ground definitely is not even close.

I heard it was a pride same sex marriage celebration. The Bible said pride comes before the fall. Bible also said beware of false teachers who walk around in In sheep's clothing . God also said judgement starts in the house of God. The word of God will not be mocked. Repent and turn from your wicked ways and seek Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior 🙏

It's not a church if it does same sex marriages

Weren't they pro gay? Left out some facts?

[EldritchBladesgaming]

Im an athiest and this sht makimg me believe

You now they weren’t actually mocking him right? Besides the person who was dressed like that was treating people with kindness so?

How is that considered mocking if they weren’t saying anything wrong?

The definition of mocking is to (making fun of someone or something in a cruel way; derisive) none of that was happening in this case

The building so happened to be in a different location then the actual and had happened a month after the parade so? Explain?

[ElCharroNegro]

No one was hurt because it was just a warning and a reminder of the power of god.
