Justice Is Served

This apparently is the criminal mug-shot of Word of Faith, money-preacher and false prophet Rodney Howard Browne, the so-called "Holy Ghost Bartender" who dispensed spiritual drunkenness at "Joel's Place" and set a new standard for blasphemous shenanigans back in the 90's. Browne has been arrested for unlawful assembly and defying emergency public health restrictions.

Regardless of the constitutional issues (which are troubling) Browne's actions were grossly irresponsible, so we can't say we're too unhappy about his arrest as he was putting people's lives at risk, both physically in the here and now and spiritually with eternal consequences which is far worse. Unfortunately he was released after only a few hours to carry on troubling the people of God. After the damage he has inflicted on the Body back in the early days of the pseudo-revival we now refer to as the Toronto Blessing (and the imitations that spawned from it such as Pensacola and Redding) and his unrepentant continuation in the same course; if false prophecies, blasphemy, heresy and spiritual deception were a crime he would be serving some well-deserved multiple life sentences by now.

For a look back at Browne's blasphemous antics in the 90's and to see what manner of wolf he really is we would recommend the following two videos. These were produced 26 years ago now, but they are still astonishingly relevant.
