Just so everyone is clear on this: the lighting rod did not save the church from the lightning which struck the steeple RIGHT NEXT TO THE LIGHTNING ROD!

lmao!
Come on. That is done to "try" to prevent the house of God from burning down due to lightning strikes. Did the church you know that burned down burn because of a lightening strike? Even with a rod it can happen you know.
I mean thats like saying I have a lack of faith because I tell my children not to play in the road. I have faith... I believe in my God, but I also know that things happen!

No...but grabbing the rod during a lightning storm shows a lack of intelligence including climbing onto the roof.

No, just good common sense. God does not "magically" protect Christians. Good and bad happen to all mankind.

God did not put us here to do everything for us. Other wise we would still be with Him.We have freewill in this life to do and act however we wish.

No, it shows Satan trying to destroy a church because he is a liar and a thief who only wants to steal, kill and destroy what God is doing because he is evil and wanted to be above his creator.

No ..... that is not a lightning rod. It is a god message receiver designed to listen to god's frequency ......
