Julie Banderas, of FoxNews's show the Big Story Weekend, gives a passionate smack-down to Shirley Phelps-Roper, speaking for the Westboro "Baptist" Church. Phelps-Roper thinks she and her church are speaking for God, but they are so far out of the grace of God they can only preach His hatred of sin.
Yes, God hates sin, but these cultists do not "speak the truth in love," and they do not show God's love and compassion for powerless sinners. Westboro members also seem to deliberately target the families in their grief, instead of going out and offering a ministry to sinners.
That's what God wants us to do: go out and serve those who are sick, showing them the great love of the God Who came down from Heaven to die on a Cross.
Ms. Banderas give a passionate defense of the truth, and exposes the hatred and pride at the heart of the Westboro cult.
God bless you, Ms. Banderas. May He bless you wonderfully for holding fast to His true Word.
(As a side note, the person who posted this clip on YouTube apparently didn't think too much of Ms. Banderas - claims she "loses it." Well, I wish more Christians would stand up and "lose it" like this when confronting such heresy and hatred!)
I'm sure glad that Church-Lady-From-Hell isn't a Muslim, or we'd be in real trouble!
