Miked for sound and, cord dangling the preacher was in his frenzy and, frantic to cast out demons. He furled and thrust and twisted and, turned until completely wrapped up in the microphone cord. Still un daunted, he begged the congregation to bring forth an exorcism when suddenly from a pew a small voice was heard saying. Mommy, if he gets loose wills he hurt us? Gator
Well, it IS Sunday, and since The Prophetess and Overseer don't have any Sunday messages posted from us, I guess I'll share some of the "usual suspects" from yesterday's:
For my supporters Stand on the Word of God. If you support the Prophet Let me know KEEP ME IN PRAYER WHY God is being Glorified. and thankyou for the ones that is standing with me.
Read God's word I did not make it up it's in the Word...
In Romans chp 1 vs 18-32
18. God's anger is revealed from heaven against every ungodly and immoral thing people do as they try to surpress the truth by their immoral living.
19.What can be known about God is clear to them because he has made it clear to them.
20. From the Creation of the World, God invisibles qualities, his enternal power and divine nature, have been clearly observed in what he made. As a result, people have no excuse.
21. They knew God but did not praise and thank him for being God. Instead, their thoughts were total nonsense, and their misguided minds were plunged into darkness.
22. While Claiming to be wise, they became fools.
Ummm, okay, about "20" there ... This is a biblical quotation? Are we talking God's invisible or God invisibles? "God Invisibles" sounds sort of like a musical: "GOD INVISIBLES! Shubert Theatre Jun 16-July 22" but I'll go with that if need be. Now, I actually DID have to refer to the word to figure out if you (them) were trying to say eternal or internal qualities. It's "eternal."
Hmmm... I guess "The Apostle" and her guy are feeling a little heat. From their web site this day:
Overseer Kelvin Mckinney and Apostle Patricia Mckinney
Where is the True Church
No weapon form against God' word shall Prosper take a stand People we don't hate anyone we just live by the word of God
For my supporters Stand on the Word of God. If you support the Prophet Let me know KEEP ME IN PRAYER WHY God is being Glorified. and thankyou for the ones that is standing with me.
Read God's word I did not make it up it's in the Word...
This is, of course, followed by the usual suspects, chapter and verse ... pity the publicity didn't render her (them?) more articulate... ("Keep me in prayer why" indeed.)
You really have to wonder if she (they) reads her own (their own) web page:
PECULIAR PEOPLE
Peculiar People... What are we to come to an understanding of... when we consider this question of what it means to be a 'peculiar people?' We can have the noblest of intentions, yet fail miserably in the execution of same. "For to be carnally minded is death, but to spiritually minded is life and peace" Romans 8:6. When we are concerned with what others think or say or do; when we judge according to our own understanding, are we not yet carnal? As Paul said in 1 Corinthians 3:3 "For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?"

It is apparent that the fashion police do not patrol the gaybustin hood, where minds are proud to be narrow .. and that chickie could scare the gay outta Richard Simmons
The Apostle Patricia Mckinney is a vision, isn't she? I'm usually opposed to focusing on the way a person looks, but religiously active homophobes who go around scarin' the hell out of kids, and making them feel like the devil is inside of them? For them, I'll make an exception. Honestly, I looked at that photo, and thought about those two thugs screamin' at that kid, and standin' over him smackin him with stuff, and I thought "Hell, I'd be throwin' up too!" And you KNOW that's her gold handbag in the chair in that pic...
I'm thinking of joining their "Women In Transition" group; real trail-blazing firebrands, and oooooooooooooooooo, do those goils know how to party! I'm tellin' ya, it's a laugh a minute at their shindigs, those wildwomen!!
I dunno .. Look at those faces .. call me crazy but I think a little fiber wouldn't hurt this group either.

(I guess only the High Priestess of HomoHooterville is allowed to wear the fancy head gear...) Such a warm, welcoming group. I think the woman in the pink and I might have a "thang" if we're not careful. Just gazing into those eyes, and ... I could be that "grateful bride" in a NY second.
But it was an "awesome" time. No, really. It was. I read it on the internet, so I know it must be true:
"This Is Our Masters Table that we Presented to the lORD on The 13th in June. It was Coordinated By the One and Only Vice President Regina Watford and Supervised by Ebony Clark It was an Awesome experience we had.
It was Invitation only we will put more Pictures up so you can see our awesome Event"
So who is this Iord person, and how much of that fruit did Iord eat, and is that why everyone else is looking so bummed? And, excuse me, but exactly what is the system of capitalization employed here, at the "Manifest Glory Ministries, Where The Spirit Of The Lord Is;(sic) There Is Liberty" ?
Seriously, though her husband, His High "Overseer" (She's the apostle, he's the overseer ... I wonder if this was by vote or annointing...) looks pretty dang miserable in every photo on the web site. Someone needs to tell him to make a joyful sound unto the Iord, or something, if divorce is out of the question...
As for building the website, I think I've found the creative genius behind that, in the "thank you"s -- it's "Big Mike" ... something tells me there's not a "Little Mike"
"I would also Like to thank a Dear Friend and sister in Christ that the Lord has Blessed me to come in contact with and even though she is thousands of miles away she has help me along this Walk with the Lord Thank You Cathy Morris and may God continue to used you in such and awesome way.
And also for My Brother Michael Goff for Preparing My radio C.D.s and for building MGM Community blog website thankyou Big Mike!!!! you will be truly bless for your work.
And last but not least Thankyou MGM family and supporters, Thankyou Guys you all have been awesome keep up the Good work an stay close to the Lord."

Yeah, but then they'd never get to use their super-powers to rid the world of homosexual demons.
Light the loafers son? WHO ya gonna call?
GAY BUSTERS!
Although the outfit is undeniably fetching (I'm putting it on my Amazon universal wish list as soon as I finish this post) I'm thinkin' she's ready right now to impale someone with those fingernails. I suspect they give taser guns a run for their money (pay no attention to the electrical line running up the back of her dress) And that glow-in-the-dark toe nail polish looks like it be from da DEBIL to ME!

This site looks like it was designed by Rooster. I swear, did you see the section titled "Peculiar People"? Check this out. Seems they didn't even take the time to read and comprehend the passages they offered up there. :
"And now I beseech thee, lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment unto thee, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another" 2 John 1:5.
See, if they simply left it at this and bled their little ministry every week on Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday and lived by these words we probably wouldn't be reading about the degayifying of youth.

Dressed like this I don't think they'll be too hard to find. Get in the car and look around. I suspect the good Rev. McKinney and posse'll be right there. This is their website. You may just see some local news crews out there if you go this weekend ;)
thanks! i notice they dont put an address on their website only a po box. heres an interesting tidbit from their web page. looks like somebody gets it on the other level but needs to shine that light back upon themself
Some of the most grievous atrocities that have been committed by men against other men have been done in the name of God and religion. If we are not walking in humility, then we have nothing to be proud of when it comes to our own perceived righteousness, or correctness, or execution of principles. Sadly, many times when we are called weird, its because that is what we are, not because we are the shining light in a dark world that we imagine ourselves to be.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn. (June 24) - The video shows the 16-year-old boy lying on the floor, his body convulsing, as elders of a small Connecticut church cast a "homosexual demon" from his body.
"Rip it from his throat!" a woman yells. "Come on, you homosexual demon! You homosexual spirit, we call you out right now! Loose your grip, Lucifer!"
The 20-minute video posted on YouTube by Manifested Glory Ministries is being called abuse by gay and youth advocates, who are demanding an investigation. But a church official this week denied that the teenager was injured or that the church is prejudiced.
"We believe a man should be with a woman and a woman should be with a man," the Rev. Patricia McKinney told The Associated Press. "We have nothing against homosexuals. I just don't agree with their lifestyle."
(How many times have we heard THAT one, hey?)
The church posted the video on YouTube but has since removed it; it is still available on some Web sites that copied it. The church declined to make the video available for distribution by The Associated Press.
It shows church members standing the youth on his feet by holding him under his arms, and people shouting as organ music plays.
"Come out of his belly," someone commands. "It's in the belly push."
Later, the teenager is back on the floor, breathing heavily. Then he's coughing and apparently vomiting into a bag.
"Get another bag," a participant says. "Make sure you have your gloves."
As the youth lay back on the ground, limp, church members put a white sheet over him.
It's nearly impossible to say how often similar exercises occur in churches nationwide. But Kamora Herrington, who runs a mentoring program at True Colors and has worked with the youth, said she believes it's fairly common.
"This happens all the time," she said. "This is not isolated."
Robin McHaelin, executive director of True Colors, an advocacy group for gay youths, said her organization is aware of five cases in recent years in which youths in her program were threatened with exorcism.
In one case, she said, a child called to report that his caregiver had called a priest who was throwing holy water on his bedroom door.
"I think it's horrifying," McHaelin said of the video by Manifested Glory. "What saddens me is the people that are doing this think they are doing something in the kid's best interests, when in fact they're murdering his spirit."
McHaelin said she planned to report the situation to the Connecticut Department of Children and Families. An agency spokesman said the agency does not comment on complaints or investigations.
"They have this kid in a full nelson," she said. "That just seems abusive to me."
McKinney said the youth was 18. The boy confirmed he is 16 but otherwise declined to comment, citing the advice of his pastor.
McHaelin said the boy told her staff that the church performed the ritual three times at his request. She said the boy has been engaging in risky behavior that she blames on the church's treatment.
McKinney said the youth went to the church last year and collapsed on the floor during a service.
"He was out of control in the church," she said. "This young man came to us. We didn't go to him."
McKinney denied the ritual was an exorcism, describing it instead as a casting out of spirits. She said the church took care of the youth, providing him clothes.
"He was dressing like a woman and everything. And he didn't want to be like that," McKinney said.
The teen had been in reform school for stealing but was eager to get out and go to the church to have what he thought were his demons driven out, Herrington said.
Exodus International, a Christian group that believes gays can become straight through prayer and counseling, does not advocate the church's approach, said Jeff Buchanan, director of church equipping.
The Rev. Roland Stringfellow, a minister in Oakland, Calif., said he was subject to demon casting in the 1990s when he was at a Baptist church and was struggling with his sexuality. He said he was put in front of the church as members shouted "demon of homosexuality come out of him."
"It caused nothing but shame and embarrassment," Stringfellow said.
McKinney also has a weekly radio program. She talked on Wednesday's program about being "persecuted" in recent days but did not mention the video specifically.
"It's been a hard time for me, but I'm looking good and I'm standing strong because when you have a mandate like mine you're not going to say what you want without the adversary coming after you," she said. "If you are a true prophet you're not going to be popular with the people."
---------------------------- Really? I thought most prophets were pretty popular.
