Pastor urges evangelists to ask God to break Lula da Silva’s jaw

In a new episode of religious radicalism, an evangelical pastor sympathetic to former President Jair Bolsonaro called on his church’s faithful to ask God to break President Lula da Silva’s jaw and bring down the Federal Supreme Court judges, where several actions were taken against Bolsonaro. Pastor Anderson Silva, leader of the Vivo Por Ti church in Brasilia, made the call in a podcast posted on his YouTube channel, along with far-right federal MP Nicolás Ferreira, an ally of the former ruler, who laughed at the incitement. .

“Perhaps we are not praying in the strain of Faith. The warrior is God, he is able to destroy the emperor of the Earth. There is not enough of those incantatory prayers of the psalmists, Lord, kill my enemies, crush the teeth of my enemies. We are missing. Pray like this, Lord, break Lula’s jaw. Lord, make the judges of the Supreme Court sick so that they can recognize you in their bed,” the pastor said, demonstrating glaring shortcomings in his knowledge of the Portuguese language and, moreover, from the teachings of biblical texts that promote love of neighbor and Christian compassion.

The video podcast was recorded on May 15, but it is only now that it has gone viral on social media, reaching such a large scale that Justice Minister Flavio Dino announced this Friday that he has ordered the federal police to look into the case. because to threaten someone, especially the President of the Republic, is a crime. But the pastor did not appear to be intimidated and reacted this Saturday on his social media by challenging the minister.

“Do you think I will be afraid of you for representing such a serious institution as the federal police as your errand boys? Spare me. Flavio Dino wants to stop me from praying, but I will continue to pray for everyone.” God will beat you. One day a great day will come and God will bring justice to the infidels,” the radical pastor wrote on his Instagram.
