Re: The New Jet Aircraft for Pastor Zeke Committee.

Oh, that looks so wonderful! I love the deck on the side of the plane. Think how exhilarating it must be to sit out on that deck when the plane is flying up among the clouds! It must give you a beautiful angel's eye view!

Now you're talking - an "angel's eye view". I wonder if the plane could have a glass bottom. If you can have glass-bottomed boats, why not glass-bottomed planes?

Re: The New Jet Aircraft for Pastor Zeke Committee.

I know that as a forum member, who is still waiting that glorious day when I maybe, maybe become a True Christian, I should not even read these conversations...

However, I'd like to know how much the costs are in gold bars?

Before you know the cost (be it in gold bars), you need to know what you want to buy. Which air plane are you suggesting the pastor should buy?

I do not make decisions, but I love the one where is the viewing deck. Pastor Ezekiel don't have to go out from the plane when he flies into those sinful lands full of diseases - He can preach straight from deck! Brilliant!

Re: The New Jet Aircraft for Pastor Zeke Committee.

So how are we paying for this?

My dear Brother in Christ, in your haste to help out, you might have missed the housekeeping portion of this discussion in which we mention some of the practical applications with regard to realizing the goals of this project.

If I might be so forward, I would encourage you to meditate on some verses of particular importance, and let yourself rest in the comfort of our Lord's Sovereignty.

Is any thing too hard for the LORD? At the time appointed I will return unto thee,
according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son.
Genesis 18:14

And Jonathan said to the young man that bare his armour, Come, and let us go over unto the garrison of these uncircumcised:
it may be that the LORD will work for us: for there is no restraint to the LORD to save by many or by few.
1 Samuel 14:6

I know that thou canst do every thing, and that no thought can be withholden from thee.
Job 42:2

Ah Lord GOD! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm,
and there is nothing too hard for thee
Jeremiah 32:17

Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh:
is there any thing too hard for me?
Jeremiah 32:27

But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible;
but with God all things are possible.
Matthew 19:26

Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.
Mark 9:23

And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.
Mark 10:27

For with God nothing shall be impossible.
Luke 1:37

And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.
Luke 18:27

Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?
John 11:40

I figure as long as there's no iron fitted in the Pastor's plane (Judges 1:19), there should be no problem too great for the LORD to solve.

For that air plane you would need 58 Good delivery bars. The bars (adorned with eagles) that you are peddling might not meet the standard.

[Johny Joe Hold]

Re: The New Jet Aircraft for Pastor Zeke Committee.

In a matter as important as this, we need to think outside the box. The facts are these:

Pastor Zeke feels he needs the A380. We lay people are in no position to argue with the pastor.

The fold out deck is a master stroke of genius. Think of a roll-out pulpit with our logo and words, Landover Baptist Church written the front. Creflo Dollar will just faint at the sight.

I think we should contact Airbus and ask for a quote to modify the A380 with the roll out deck. Then we would have an aircraft big enough for Pastor Zeke's entourage plus a deck to speak from and a classy place to entertain world leaders.

Re: The New Jet Aircraft for Pastor Zeke Committee.

So how are we paying for this? You do all realize, I hope, that the cost of this jet would be equal to the cost the the next three hundred annual Pastor's Prayer Summit and Thailand Golf Junkets?

We could be sending those boys to Thailand for prayer, fellowship, and golf three centuries into the future, and we still wouldn't have spent what this plane will cost.

As one of my Dad's buddies Richard once said, "Deficits don't matter."

Here's the way it goes, Faith Machine:

• Landover buys the jet for $450 million.
• Pastor Zeke will save a bunch of people zipping all over the globe.
• They all joyously donate a lot of capital to the church.
• BINGO! Deficit gone!

Richard said his friend Ronnie taught him this.

Praise Jesus!

...Think of a roll-out pulpit ...

Ooooh, double-deck rollout, for Zeke and the 100-voice choir?

That'll show those starving Africans who God Loves(tm).

Mr. Much,

Obviously, you are trying to make these Godly plans look cruel and uncaring but - as always - Jesus must have intervened and dictated some words of wisdom into your post. Of course these people are starving: they are STARVING FOR THE WORD OF GOD! They are desperate to hear the sermons of our Good Pastor Ezekiel.

Luke 4:4
And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.

Psalms 107:9
For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.

Material food is secondary. Mr. Much, it is MUCH more important to satisfy the SPIRITUAL HUNGER of those deficient in spirituality. I am praying that one day this new jet of Pastor Ezekiel lands on your hometown and you'll hear the words that will change your life. You won't hesitate any more. You'll embrace Jesus.




Yours in Christ,

Elmer

One other thing.
In 2015, the A380 costs $75 million. Let's allow another $25 million for custom fit out including the deck, and extensions to the runway at Freehold. So $100 million all up. Now the population of Africa in 2013 was $1.111 billion. When Pastor Zeke get to preach to all those darkies, and they start tithing, only 10c from each darky's tithe will be enough to pay for the aircraft. At that rate, we could even purchase a whole fleet of them! Maybe even start our own airline!

[Jim Farmer]

Re: The New Jet Aircraft for Pastor Zeke Committee.

I've been checking out companies who do aircraft fitouts.

This master bedroom was produced by Lufthansa Technik AG


Greenpoint Technologies is an American company but mainly specialise in Boeings. Nevertheless, their website shows some nice interiors and some good floor plans we could discuss.



This layout for instance includes a master bedroom for Zeke and his own lounge room. A dining room for the entourage and seating for all. Upstairs, rudimentary sleeping accommodation and lounge space for the entourage. It has an office, but lacks a gymnasium.

[Johny Joe Hold]

Re: The New Jet Aircraft for Pastor Zeke Committee.

Thank you to everyone who has researched vendors for this project. We're really making progress.

I looked around the site of Greenpoint Technologies to see if the phrase "equal opportunity employer" appeared anywhere. That phrase, as we all know, is code language for "we love to hire homers." Fortunately, I did not see it--maybe others can search some more.

Since Pastor Zeke's safety and comfort is our greatest concern, we need to be certain under the control of Satan do not touch his aircraft.

[Billy Bob Jenkins]

Re: The New Jet Aircraft for Pastor Zeke Committee.

As usual, I am concerned about Pastor Ezekiel's comfort while in the restroom. I would like to get a strong mental image of him seated on the toilet. With no images of the actual porcelain (or crystal, as may be the case), it is very difficult to visualize him with confidence.

I understand that much of the Pastor's time is spent hovering over foreign countries, and for this reason disposal of his excreta will not be complicated. What worries me is, what about when he is vacationing in America, and not spreading the ideology of witchhunting to Africans? How frequently will he be able to dump his waste? A map showing blue and red states will be necessary to establish the needed capacity.

I think your concern here is that he may be confined to one of those miniscule toilets that we mere mortals find on commercial aircraft in cattle class. I am sure that Pastor Ezekiel will have a spacious toilet - one that he can turn around in. One that he could hold a party in, if he so desired, which he wouldn't. One with a full length mirror so he can be certain his clothing is correctly adjusted before leaving. One that has a heated seat and automatic flush and deodoriser. I think a gold-plated receptacle would be appropriate.
