    Am I the only one who thinks the breach of security is an issue?

    Well, when God wants to see GW, I'm sure he'll have no problem. But with men, I think the lack of security is at issue here, and am somewhat concerned.

    Is this for real or a hoax?

    It's for real, Joseph. Have heard about this man for years, through several administrations.

    God is able to conceal what He chooses to conceal, Johnv, and sometimes He chooses to use mere men as His messengers.

    There are many stories of guards not seeing Bibles being smuggled into Communist countries, for example.

    I don't know why. This WH has welcomed terrorists with open arms even though there were security issues and the Secret Service were alarmed. At least this man isn't a terrorist. Besides, this thread isn't about national security.... [​IMG]

    That's all well and good. That doesn't mean the fact that he evaded seciryt should not be a concern.
    This isn't one of those cases. This is a case of him being lucky enough to get away with it. I'm a bit hesitant to simply dismiss this as a scriptural parallel. To be honest, even the idea of doing so here seems a bit Benny Hinnish. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure this guy means well. But I take his actions with a grain of salt.

    There's a difference between wilfully permitting people to pass, and them evading security.

    That doesn't mean his bypassing of security should be dismissed.
    A man can so casually get up to the POTUS, and it isn't an issue of national security? It's at the very least an issue of Executive Branch security.

    Well knowing that they had prior knowledge of this guy and have run him backwards and fowards through their checks, does not exactly indicate that he was allowed to be so casual. I dont see him as lucky enough to get away with it, seeing as he has been successful with multiple visits to five different Presidents.

    Also, if I were the President, and there was a slight chance that God needed me to know something via this messenger, I wouldnt want my Secret Service throwing him on the ground.

    I'm gonna ask a friend (Jim) in church about him. Jim was a driver for the Secret Service and drove Clinton all over.
