Sounds like real pastor.. forgiving and loving just as real Christians should
This is religious denominationism
@@StandForTruth205How so?
THAT’S SO TRUE!
@@StandForTruth205Irrelevant
Not me, I would've pressed charges... clearly this guy's a serious threat to society.
This same scenario happened just a few weeks ago to pastor Mar Mari Emmanuel; the suspect’s knife wouldn’t open. Now that’s 2 in a row! God is real and He loves you so much.
💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽☝🏽🙏🏽✝️
Too many coincidences to not put things together. Jesus is always in control and all knowing ✝️✝️✝️
“No weapon formed against you shall prosper” live in practice! 🙏🏾💫💯
Amen! 💯
Amen Amen Amen
Seriously? I guess God intervened here saving this one pastor, but didn't feel like intervening at First Baptist Church of Sutherland Springs, Texas where 26 people were killed, or the 9 killed at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in South Carolina or the 11 killed at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh, etc. Where was God during these church killings? Probably too preoccupied giving cancer to children.
Amen
Amen
A small miracle ??? That was a huge Miracle from our Lord praise him. 💯✌️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️
Untreated mental health issues. Hearing voices is never a good sign.
@@theblade9024 The gun jammed when he tried to shoot the pastor.
Amen 🙏🏾
@@theblade9024🤡

Divine intervention. Evil is running rampant in all areas today
That’s not divine intervention 1. He forgot to rack the slide or 2. He had a piece of junk. Him forgetting to rack the slide is psychology not religion
@@agentbubbles782 never discount it
Remember, there are no atheists on a sinking ship
God is good...
@@patricialavallee8286if I was on a sinking ship, I’d panic not knowing which god to believe in. There are thousands in the history of humans and I wouldn’t be able to decide which one is the real one.
@@geodude7116 trust me, all you would say is," God help me."
That guy needs deliverance
Your right. Heavily demonized...
From Christianity...
What an amazing pastor! Instant forgiveness just wow!!
Come on now U don't think this looks staged ?
@RealResponce I have that thought, but I'm thinking on the positive side.
Many Christians are under attack at this time.
@@munchezfonatabaUnder attack why?
@@RealResponce proof it's staged??
@@RealResponceit’s not staged, the person who attempted to shoot the pastor had shot a relative before the attempt, k--ing them. It is currently under investigation
GREAT JOB OF PROTECTING THE PASTOR
I think this looks staged
The gun man kinda looks like the alter boy that used to work there.
@@RealResponce
He is under investigation for a dead body in another case so I doubt if it was staged!
@@RealResponce Its real. There was a body of the man’s relative found at his home before he came to the church to do this. Its all over nearly every news station.
People better start praying psalm91 everyday in these times we live in
No
We all Need Jesus
Bot
Amen
He doesn't exsist
No
It wasn't a small miracle; it was a large miracle. Thank you God for showing your love, compassion, and strength.
Same thing just happened at my daughter’s high school.
15 yr old child has gun to the head of another student and it jammed. The student then kicked the arm of the 15 yr old and it went off.
I have seen the video from a classroom.
It is amazing these children 5 (all together) are alive, unharmed physically.
The 15 yr old was probably constantly being bullied and resorted to a gun......The Lord said, you will not take a life & throw your life away......Today's children need guidance and protection
@@user-nk4xm1rd1k Or the kid was probably just sick in the head and wanted to off someone.
@@orandachildren1051 both can equally be true....
Was this on the news?
@@snowps1Yes, Decatur GA
Something seems off with this whole scenario.
The gunman's name is Bernard Polite. Do a quick search.
Glory to God! Hallelujah!
God has a plan for that pastor. Make sure you thank Him for His protection.
This is gotta be a joke I could watch gun videos jam all day your religion was stolen from Mayans god is not real
Pastor Mari miracle, the guy's knife was stuck. God will not be mocked. His children are few but he will protect them.
Except in war he doesn’t protect millions of his children.
@@geodude7116 Thats where you are wrong. God protects his anointed meaning those who he will use to preach the gospel. He made us for this purpose to praise him, worship and spread his Gospel. He can create 7 billion people, people chose to have war among themselves because they are sinful. God allows them to fight among themselves because they chose sin (death) rather than Jesus (life) whom he provided on the cross as an atonement for our sins so we can return to heaven with him because heaven has no sin and no human can go there since everybody sins and only Jesus can clean us up and prepare us for heaven. We chose to rebel, its not God’s fault. God is Good. Anything outside of God is evil. Humans chose to be outside of God when they sinned, the same as Lucifer.
I've heard of people falling under conviction in church, but this takes the cake
So ur telling me in a city where guns are illegal and hard to find wouldn't jam it wasnt god it was us humans this is sick
That part 💯
Praise God for saving the pastor!!!
He needs a mental professional, meds, and therapy. Not everyone needs to be in prison.😮
We need to have mental care for our people. All Americans.
The gun jammed?!? Isaiah 54:17 NKJV. No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn.
Amen Selah!!!🙏🏽🙌🏽🙏🏽
therefore every single person that was martyred and executed are not the people god was referring to.
which means all the apostles that were martyred for your religion are false.
Pastors knows how to twist the stories in thier favour and ask for money lol
😂😂
@@ChannelofchannelzUA like cops have a quota to give out tickets😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The brother is Demon possessed.
Yeah I agree that pastor really needs a exorcism to get that lying spirit out of'em.
Media will likely call it Mental health, but it's Spiritual
Untreated mental health issues. Hearing voices is never a good sign.
Spiritual not mental
for sure and it was the work of the lord and his angels who stopped this demon possessed man
Love you, Lord, for your faithfulness.
WOW did he not read the gun free zone sign? How rude.
"For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places"
What a kind pastor.
I know it may cost the church a little more money. They need to get some type of security. Anyone can come through those doors. When covid was out we had to get our temperature checked before we could be seated. These are perilous times we are living in.
After the someone tried attacking mar mari emmanuel idk what to think anymore
This is NOT a small miracle. DON'T under estimate our God. The God of Israel is an awesome God. God is a deliever and he is delivering his people. You mainstream media will continue to see. All praise be to our God.
Nobody else had a gun. Just some brave and strong men!
Hallelujah ❤ God said nope! Thank you, Clarence ❤
You never know what can happen. I live in a rural area. We attend a church with about a usual attendance of about 150. We have we several current and retired police officers that are members. After the church shooting in Charleston, SC several years ago; we went to the deacons and elders and proposed a security detail. We post one armed man at the main entrance under the illusion that he is a greeter and one that patrols the parking area and other entry ways and exits. We also have a few armed men spread out through our congregation. This is exactly what we are defending against. We also have a short yearly presentation on what to do in case of an incident were to happen. Where we live the chances of something ever happening would be slim to none. But it could and we simply choose to be prepared in case it does. I am so glad this pastor and congregation were not injured. They did well. .
Kid didn’t know how to properly load the gun most likely
He shot and killed a relative before going to the church.
DUH, you didn't listen did you...
@@jenscheibner792 child
@@mikepaz8385🤡
He needs to be in prison to protect the public.
He murdered someone prior to trying to shoot the pastor....
What's sad is the fact that we're getting to a point where we may need metal detectors in churches.
not even safe in church anymore‼😡
Safe By Definition Doesn't Exist Unless You Believe In Indestructible.
Praise God he protected this humble pastor
What about all the other pastors that have been killed?
This is happening more often now.. why is that 🤔
God bless
God is good every time! Me and my friend were talking about how many times God saves us. It's Gods Grace.
My lord thank God 🙏🏿
You know that pastor has to be moving in the Holy Spirit and changing lives and the devil is MAD! He tried to use one of his minions to do his dirty work. That guy likely had no idea why he went to that church. "We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." Ephesians 6:12
GOD IS GOOD 🙏🙏🙏
Praise the Lord Jesus Christ, thank You for protecting this man.
But let all who take refuge in You be glad;
let them ever sing for joy.
Spread Your protection over them,
that those who love Your Name may rejoice in You. -Psalm 5: 11
But God 🙏 🕊️
Wow that’s so amazing to see pastors forgiving and loving others
God is good!!! May your life bring endless joy, blessings, and peace to many. It wasn’t your time Pastor, God needs you to keep up the good work.
A big shout out to the brave Deacon! The man was fearless! He was not afraid because the Lord was with him!
"god jammed the gun". so if you get shot, that is because god did not bother to jam the gun for you.
You see a miracle in front of your face and that's still not enough for some people. Repent and believe in Jesus. Let the hate out your heart and forgive
@@jesussaves5297guns jam. By definition a miracle is something IMPOSSIBLE.
It's not too late to accept Almighty *Atheismo* as your savior.
@@jesussaves5297have your faith but honestly…. What do you have to say about the people that “God doesn’t jam the gun for”?
@@jesussaves5297because it’s not hate. It’s a genuine question.
@SwiftJustice Maybe God did cause the gun to jam or maybe it jammed on its own, but what's wrong with people believing that God was behind it? Why not let them believe what they want to? It's a fact that God heals people from terminal illnesses, like last stages of cancer. Some people he heals and some he doesn't. He can intervene when ever he wants to and that's none of your business how he chooses to run the universe.
Romans 9:14-21 NIV
[14] What then shall we say? Is God unjust? Not at all! [15] For he says to Moses, “I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.” [16] It does not, therefore, depend on human desire or effort, but on God’s mercy. [17] For Scripture says to Pharaoh: “I raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display my power in you and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth.” [18] Therefore God has mercy on whom he wants to have mercy, and he hardens whom he wants to harden. [19] One of you will say to me: “Then why does God still blame us? For who is able to resist his will?” [20] But who are you, a human being, to talk back to God? “Shall what is formed say to the one who formed it, ‘Why did you make me like this?’ ” [21] Does not the potter have the right to make out of the same lump of clay some pottery for special purposes and some for common use?
Why don't you let people believe whatever they want when it's not bothering you. You should encourage to believe whatever they want if it helps them and keep your negative pessimistic comments to yourself!
You need armed security at places of worship now
Wow
God is good
Thank you GOD!❤
At least we're all equal.
My God the Lord was watching over him… he clearly wasn’t ready for him yet..🙏🙏🙏🙏.
Bro that guy that helped was there FAST!
Bad people like to do bad things in churches too. It is sad.
Stop sleeping with the church members
We all watch the team handle the scene *politely * or very *polite * when Bernard Polite entered the church and pointed his guh at the pastor..well done.
Small miracle?? This was a MAJOR MIRACLE!! Not only was the Pastor and congregation protected…but we will all be that much more vigilant because the enemy is stepping up his walk …seeking whom he may devour…
Glory to God
God save him that day
This is a crazy world. God was with the pastor. Praise Jesus Christ. Amen. 😅
Something strange with this story.... no women screaming
I was disappointed with the take down even though it worked. I thought he was going to hit that boy like Ray Lewis or Troy Polamalu
The brother behind the desk wasn't even gonna help the pastor, until he saw that other other jumo on him.
Praise the Lord
Everyone please repent. Our Lord & Savior WILL be back very soon to rid this godless world of sin.🙏🏼
Jesus forgives everyone bud no need for repentance.
Confess is all that's needed
@@skankhunt3624Do you know what Repent means?
Lol
@@user-up6bh3jb7e and not to a pastor. Confessing to yourself and being honest inside is all that's needed for true forgiveness
A lot of the people from my former church may be full of BS, but at the same time, still, I wouldn't do anything stupid like that, especially in a church building. If you don't like being in that church, or if you don't like what they're talking about, GO TO A DIFFERENT CHURCH, OR DON'T GO TO CHURCH AT ALL!!!! Don't do anything stupid where it's going to land you in jail, and worse than that, prison.
According to the Law Of Moses attempted murder is still a capital crime.
Praise Jesus, hallelujah I am glad this man is OK. God really did intervene.
Praise Yah!! God is so good !! He is still doing miracles today !!! ❤❤❤ Jesus is coming soon!
Wow Thank God everyone is safe.
Remember in Australia bishop mar Mari Emmanuel knifed ! Now this pastor in America ! Demons are real and going after Christian’s !
THANK YOU JESUS‼️ Isaiah 54:17
GLORY TO GOD‼️🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Scary.
Satan told him to do it, God said nope, not on my watch.
If that doesnt prove divine intervention idk what will
Fue la intervención Divina gloria a Dios aleluya
Crazy!!! God was looking out for him
America in the Pittsburgh lands thank you God!!
Praise The Lord 🙏✝️✝️🙏
Na na na let's see what was going on. To many times we hear about things going on in churches with these new prosperity preachers.
The ones with small churches and got their doctrine off the internet
There is a lot of violence going on everywhere, shootings at schools, hospitals, shopping malls, nail salons, nightclubs, etc. “ Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.” 1 Peter 5:8. But if you have Jesus Christ in your heart, soul and mind, even if you are shot or killed you will still win. You will spend eternity with Jesus and Satan can’t do anything about that.
Weak minded double minded people try to live for Jesus and Satan. You can only live for one or the other. Jesus taught “ No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate one or love the other, or else he will be loyal to one but despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon ( money). Matthew 6: 24. So only a weak minded individual would conflate the preacher with Jesus Christ and because he didn’t become prosperous, he decides to shoot the preacher. Now you know that won’t hold up in a court of law as a credible defense. It’s an excuse but not a defense.
The area where this happened is a terrible part of Pittsburgh
My mind goes to preacher sleeping with guys wife, they found a body in his home, that’s prob the wife… just what pops into my head. Most likely just my imagination
Divine intervention
This is clearly a sign of the end TIMES!!! GOD WANTS THE PEOPLE THAT WANT TO REPENT TO REPENT AND THE PEOPLE THAT DON'T WANT TO THEN DON'T. YOU'LL FIND OUT.
God l thank you for isaiah 54:17 a great miracle,may is a blessed month month for all God people
Wow!
He’ll be out tomorrow
HALLELUJAH! GOD IS AMAZING! It was NOBODY but Him who kept this man from being killed. TO GOD BE THE GLORY…get to know JESUS as LORD. 🙏🏽🙏🏽✝️. PRAISE the LORD! That was no small miracle!
America, when are you going to have gun laws? It is getting out of control.
It’s not about guns. Killing is big business in the US. Sick isn’t it?
It’s the people not the guns. If we disarm ourselves, the criminals win every single time.
@@Islandgirl2133exactly because they get their weapons legally, right? Lol!
It's BEEN OUT OF CONTROL
But that's a gun fee zone. Oh wait criminals don't follow the law.
Nobody has said if the guy was under the influence of something maybe that's why he did it and heard a voice telling him to do it.
That only a DRAMA!!
A miracle.
I'm so thankful that everything turned out well. I appreciate that the pastor and parishioner forgave him. Also I appreciate the system for taking care of him. I love that the pastor spoke to him. He has schizophrenia.
VERY VERY SUSPICIOUS!!
The bible says there is more harvest than labourers, God can't give up on his labourers
Protected by the blood of Jesus 🙏 The enemy is defeated.
Am I the only one who thought at first this was a publicity stunt?
is there a reason they do not give the city or town name. Pa is a big state!!!!!!?????
It looks like bad acting..
he had already killed someone. you think thats acting?
Comical how easy it is to praise rather than imitate. Is this how the man they praised allegedly behaved when they came to take his life?
Unstable mental health is at an all time high until we do something about it these problems will keep happening!
