All American hero Donald Trump described Covid-19 as 'a blessing from God'.

I think that is truly amazing. I want to receive the same blessing!

What is the most reliable way to get Coronavirus?

I already threw away all my protective gear and invited a few friends who have Covid-19, and refuse treatment of course, to receive the same blessing. I also stopped washing my hands and started hugging random people.

Would this do the trick? Is there more I can do?

[Brother Gonzalez]

As far as I know, a Trump rally is the fastest way.

Oh, dear Brother Cranky: In addition to Brother Gonzalez' brilliant suggestion, I might also suggest that you attend any public protests that are nearby. It would be especially to your benefit in catching the Chinese Flu if you went to protests that pertain to the lockdown, the silly restrictions, Governors' anti- orders, etc. Now, in order to get the full effect, might I suggest that you "get in people's faces" as much as possible, as you shall see in the second photo? Good luck, Dear, and do let us know of your progress.

That, or working in the White House. Truly, Donald Trump wants to share this blessing with all of America. That's how much he cares!

Trump hasn't received a negative test yet and tested positive a week ago so if you're lucky you might be able to get it from Trump himself! What a blessing that would be.

Great advice! I will be on the first flight to Florida as Donald Trump will have a rally there real soon. And, of course, no one will wear a mask!

I can not wait to catch Covid-19!

I am almost 10 years older than Donald Trump. I have no doubt I will be extra blessed!

According to the Japs the fastest way is to eat a bat I believe.

[Cranky Old Man]

This is higly annoying. I just arrived in Florida but Donald Trump has been delayed until Monday.

That sounds like good advice. I will try Krakatoa Indonesian Cuisine and see if they serve bats there.

I can see it now. Much like the modern day prophet Peter Popoff, Donald J Trump who we all know is God’s best businessman aside from Jesus, will start marketing “Trump DNA”. Let Trump’s DNA slide right into your insides and his godliness will surely bless you with a fool proof vaccine against COVID-19 as told in Isiah 41:10! Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

Hello. As a fellow christian and obsessive masturbator, I can confirm that it is not masturbation which is causing the China virus pandemic, for I have not yet presented this disease. Instead, I believe it might be caused by the use of masks, as god has stated many times in the past that he deeply dislikes mask. Masks are also what jewish and muslim people wear, which in my opinion is terrible...... Corona Virus was invented by IRAN in 2007.

I wish you good luck in your journey to get this virus, although it is not more than a common flu.

Amen, brother.

The purpose here is to distinguish God's advice from other sources, sources not having created corona viruses to begin with, how to become afflicted well detailed in Scripture - how for your parched soul to be assuaged or to wither and to feebly cry?

Genesis 6:3-5 And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years. There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown. And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

Look let's face it, your role in overcoming the CORVID pandemic is going to be fairly small. Best if you can just keep yourself clean and stay out of the way like a good boy.

Christians are inured to suffering, not necessarily due to torture at the hands of disbelievers but because of Christ's Infinite Torture dished out by pagans on the whim of a mob stirred up by maniacs, infinite because He was perfect and because no whip ever is.

Isaiah 53:4-5
Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

Interesting as poetry no doubt (I'm not actually a fan of poetry) but what has this got to do with Christianity? In 711BC?? Even by the most ludicrous estimates dating one Hellenistic scheme as deriving from a convenient monotheistic tradition (having worked out Mount Olympus was uninhabited due to atoms and rudimentary quantum field theory) that developed beyond any mystery cult into modern Christianity from approx. the time of Euclid give-or-take a century [chart excerpt uses 75-year blocks] WHERE IS ISAIAH IN THIS??? What has he to do with Jesus, it's suggested, but the answer is right there in The Bible.

I Peter 2:21b
For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps: Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth: Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously: Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

Does that mean Christ was judged worthy of pain, immense pain, tearing and ripping of flesh, but with no righteous cause?

I Peter 2:23c
For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps: Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth: Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously: Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

God knew what He was doing, as He always does. From time to time, plagues are blasted down, many are smitten. Of course the Christian is dead to sin; God knows the conditions under which infection must ensue. I have no wish to emulate that mode of existence (it isn't life really, is it) yet The Whip is a cruel and nasty thing which Christ endured for us.

I Peter 2:24e
For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps: Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth: Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously: Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

Slicing across flesh leaving zebra-like stripes but crimson-hued rather than black and white. Imagine your family members under The Whip wriggling and squirming and trying to get away: what would you do? What are you doing in this plague – knowing that mercy can never be manifest without a cause for mercy, nor healing as promised without disease; Redemption without sin? (to reset our spiritual compass) Salvation with nothing to be saved from? (as those early Greek absurdities implied) – to demonstrate Christ's Healing Power the quickest way to be infected now or at any other time must be to repudiate Christ. His gateway mercy, His powerful word: to become infected and blessed with the mercy of healing, as The Bible sets out, as Jesus knew and as Isaiah foresaw, all those years ago.

There is a big blah blah blah in the press about this: In some places wealthy people are getting vaccinations while those with less have to wait. Hospital Board members, for example, are slipped in when hospital staff are getting vaccinated.
How could these complainers not understand money has privileges? If the rich get sick our country will be in serious trouble. If the poor get sick we can just move along until they recover. I have turned off my hearing of low income complainers.

Jesus promised:

John 14:14
If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.

I've heard suggestions that Jesus was simply talking about miracles He performed at the time, healing someone because they'd asked Him to. But that is not so; however great Christ's Healing Ministry was then, now an even greater ministry exists. When Jesus told us, obviously 2021 was in the future – and it's the future He's talking about. But first something had to happen.

John 14:12c • Jesus speaking
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

Who shall do these works?

John 14:12b
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

Will healing capabilities be as extensive, less extensive or more extensive than Jesus’?

John 14:12d
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

Was there any explanation why Christians would receive a greater healing capacity?

John 14:12e
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

Will future miracles, i.e. the ministry through Christians today, be limited?

John 14:13a
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

There can be no doubt that Jesus promised a healing ministry greater than His own. Nevertheless, although greater, it could still be limited. For example a helicopter is faster than a bicycle but its speed is not infinite. Jesus addressed this point very thoroughly, even reiterating His remarks in verse 14 just to make sure we understood. Now I'm aware that today among those who never read The Bible or who do read it but don't believe what they read, there's a reluctance to accept this promise. There are others who'll claim that Jesus was not talking about physical healing at all.

How can that be? Did blind Bartimaeus not receive his actual eyesight? What about leprosy? Were those wretches only delivered from leprosy-of-the-heart (I've never heard of such a disease) or did they recover from actual leprosy? Leprosy of the entire body? Stressing the word body? Of course they were. Otherwise why would they have to present themselves for bodily, I'll just repeat that: bodily, examination?

In summary then, if people calling themselves "Christians" do not believe what Jesus said, in this case very unambiguously, why do they impose their dogma on others as if it were actually true? And that MUST be what they're doing because if they really believed His teaching they would claim this promise and manifest its veracity for the world to see. They do not do that. True Christians acknowledge the status of Christ's words and act accordingly. The Bible explains what that means. Those who do not believe God have no business lying to others about it, when what they actually believe is something quite different.

Rich people donating to hospitals enables those hospitals to hire more doctors and obtain more supplies. In return all those people ask for is special treatment like priority access to limited supplies. This is a win-win.

Who benefits society more. Rich people who generously donate to our society, or old people who live off socialist security and will most likely be dead in a few years anyway? This, to me, is not a difficult decision.

I just learned that because I already got the Covid-19 from Trump, that I am immune. So when Biden's vaccination gestapo arrives, I will be ready for them!

A very encouraging Scripture. There's a direct link between physical wellbeing and spiritual wellbeing. Prosperity. The Bible presents that association like this:

III John 1:2
Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

Christians accept, humbly, the best possible prosperity of souls. The future is assured and it's not one of diminishing returns, bliss to start with but eventually that wears off and there seems less to give praise for that hasn't been glorified a million times already, ennui sets in, then it's all downhill in a sort of C-minus division. Not at all!

I Corinthians 15:16-22
For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised: And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins. Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished. If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.

^ ^ ^ The C-minus division ^ ^ ^

•

But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept. For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.

^ ^ ^ True Christians ^ ^ ^

•

The degree of prosperity in health derives from Christian prosperity of the soul, so easy to determine when you see the things actually consuming time and effort here in this life. The latest fluorescent footwear as worn by sports idols? Ridiculously oversized yet strangely somehow lewd clothing? Broided hair? Tinkling gold ornaments? Absurd gemstones? The latest device or console? Where these things are god, when that's where the money is spent, health as well as spiritual prosperity have been rejected.

No wonder they haven't got anything left to pay the pittance for a vaccine!

Amen, dear Brother Cranky -- amen! The would have us warn the people of these vexatious vaccinations -- for the good of all that is holy and decent! Who knows what those "scientists" are putting into those serums, as they plot to jab people with substances that are akin to force-feeding poison to people? Those needles could well contain chemicals that will force people to take the Mark of the Beast, and to become loyal, devoted slaves to not-my-President Joe Burden -- as part of a communist takeover of our nation! We must be on guard constantly, and we must do whatever we can to protect from this contemptible corruption by the Demonrats!
