I don’t think so. For instance, when I’m arm wrestling, I’ll turn my hat backwards right before the match. It’s like a switch goes off when I do that.

I don't know Perry. Seems to be a pretty polarizing guy. He's probably about like the rest of us, a sinner in need of a saviour. That's what Christmas is really about. God providing a way for redemption. I hope he's found his way.
After what I've witnessed the past four years and read on this board nothing surprises me any longer.
Ha. God used Cyrus And Nebucannezar to accomplish His purposes. They were pagan kings. No relation to pagano. God uses who He will
Perry came up being a youth pastor in Pickens County, planted a church in Anderson, led that group of Spirit filled believers to accomplish things for Christ’s kingdom, even they never dreamed possible. He is the victim of his own sin. The consequences have been devastating. Yet whether you believe it or not... Jesus does not give up on people. He didn’t give up on his disciples (i.e. Peter). He didn’t give up on me. And He will not give up on Perry. Jesus said, “He who is without sin, let him cast the first stone.” You guys keep throwing and Jesus will keep forgiving. Merry Christmas and Go Tigers!
That and the Hebrew authors happened to be slaves to Babylonian/Persian empires so perhaps literature was forced?
Christianity is for sinners: sex addicts, shopaholics, control freaks, adulterers, blame-shifters, gossips, alcoholics, liars, narcissists, worry warts, the angry, the arrogant. Jesus came for fallen people who fail, because fallen people who fail are all that there are.
The Bible is specific on judging others as it says you’ll be judged by the standard in which you judge. I defiantly don’t want to judge the man especially since I don’t know him. I understand how drinking as a pastor isn’t a good look but most everybody drinks at some point. The thing that gets me about Mr. noble is that look in his eyes. Old saying is the eyes are the window into the soul. There’s really something off when you look into his eyes and his ADHD is off the charts. Part of that gave him his charisma and the other part of that caused his downfall. Really more sad than anything. My prayer for him is that he’s doing well.
Christianity puts the emphasis on God’s movement toward us, not our movement toward him. It puts the accent on God’s action for us, not our action for him. The spotlight is on God’s faithfulness, not ours.
It is sad, and we aren’t to judge the world. But we are absolutely called to help our fellow believers and called to correct our brothers in the fellowship.
I’ll stop throwing shoes when I open up multiple churches while being a shotgun ordained pastor.
