Brazilian
minister who said he prayed that LGBT actor may be taken by his owner became a
target of a homophobia lawsuit

A
minister in the Assemblies of God in Brazil who said that he was praying for a
gay actor, hospitalized for a month because of Covid-19, to be taken by his
owner became a target of dozens of gay groups seeking to sue him for
“homophobia.” The groups claim that the minister wants to kill the gay through
prayers.
In
a Facebook post, which later was deleted, Rev. José Olímpio, in the Assemblies
of God of Alagoas, Brazil, said:
“This
is actor Paulo Gustavo whom some are asking prayers for. And will you pray? I
pray for his owner to take him close to himself.”
In
repudiation of this prayer, several Brazilian homosexual groups issued a note
saying:
“It
is urgent for crimes as these, motivated by homophobia, to be added to the
examples of LGBTphobia, in the law fighting racism n. 7.716/2018, and that more
rigorous and severe punishments may be taken against homophobic behavior and
discriminatory acts as this.”
The
text was written by Toni Reis, who in the past requested the Brazilian Federal
Public Prosecutor’s Office to incriminate me for “homophobia,” because my
articles take a strong Christian and biblical stance against his favorite sin.
He stopped persecuting me only after I left Brazil with my family.
Actor
Paulo Gustavo has a history of making jokes against Jesus Christ. But that does
not justify an outrage that wants his death, nor does it justify homosexual
groups turning a blind eye to his prejudiced jokes.
In
his note, Reis added that this prayer is a “criminal act of violence, practiced
by this religious leader.”
He
treated the prayer as a real attempt of violence and murder. It was a so great
exaggeration that surpassed the exaggeration of prayer itself.
This
is not a standard prayer of truly converted Christians. A true Christian prays
for conversion of sinners, whether murderers, adulterers, thieves, pedophiles,
homosexuals, etc.
Worthy
of attention is that Toni kings and homosexual groups connected to him treated
minister’s prayer as a “crime.”
Even
being outside Christian standards, the Pentecostal minister’s prayer offers a
useful view of the spiritual world of ministers and homosexuals.
Seeing
from the minister’s perspective, how can he enter into the presence of Jesus for
prayer and say, “Jesus, I put before you that gay and I want you to make his
owner take him.”
From
the point of view of the Bible, the owner of homosexuals is the devil.
If
such prayers were heard, there would be no homosexuals in the world.
However,
there are only two questions. Christians do not make these prayers and God does
not hear this kind of prayer.
Seeing
from perspective of homosexuals, why are they worried about a prayer that asks
for them to be taken by their owner? They should not worry, unless they know
who the owner is actually — that he is a malignant and diabolical creature.
If
a LGBT activist tells me he will pray that my owner will take me, I will not
mind. I know my owner — Jesus Christ. He is not subject to anyone’s prayers.
I’m not afraid of my owner, who is not a killer and does not hear prayers of
those who want the death of others.
But
apparently, homosexuals are afraid of their owner. It is no secret that many homosexuals
have a special preference for witchcraft, where prayers and ritual sacrifices
are made against people. These prayers and sacrifices include even requests for
demons to kill people. Perhaps the gay groups suing the minister think he wants
to do them the same thing as they, through witchcraft, do to others.
If
a gay activist performs a prayer or ritual sacrifice of witchcraft against me,
I trust in Jesus, who is more powerful than Satan and his witches. In the name
of Jesus, I break the power of witchcraft.
So
because many Brazilian homosexuals prefer witchcraft, they do not unaware of
prayers against people.
I
am sure that the minister who made prayer out of Christian standards was
rebuked by other ministers. But if his prayer, which is not common in Christian
churches, deserves legal punishment for “homophobia,” what about witchcraft
places attended by homosexuals who routinely make prayers and ritual sacrifices
against people and their lives? Should Police close these places and leave
homosexuals without their favorite religion?
More
clearly, if the imprudent prayer of the AG minister is a crime, what are the prayers
and sacrifices of the favorite religion of Brazilian gays? Fatally, the attempt
for homosexualist activist Toni Reis to criminalize an imprudent prayer
criminalizes witches, their prayers and ritual sacrifices against people.
If
the minister wants to continue praying for the owner of homosexual sin to take
his slaves he will have to change religion. By coincidence, the favorite
religion of homosexuals prays against people’s lives.
If
homosexuals who practice witchcraft believe that the devil is a kind creature,
they should not worry about any prayer asking for their owner to take them.
Although I do not agree at all with these prayers, homosexuals need to tell if
they are or not afraid of their spiritual owner.
If
all the ministers prayed for sinners to be taken by their demonic owners,
evangelization would become useless, for lack of sinners to hear the Gospel.
I
do not pray for the death of sinners. I pray for their salvation. But no one
can guarantee that homosexuals, who prefer witchcraft, have those same
feelings. No one can guarantee that in their witchcraft meetings prayers are
not made against Christians.
Yet,
I’m not afraid. I am not afraid of my owner, because I know whom I serve. And
I’m not afraid of the owner of homosexuals, because I know whom they serve.
