“They do not know that abortion is false, many churches,” he said. “They don’t have the flowing donations. God gives the gifts of the body. To keep the balance. Because when the body begins to move in the wrong direction, when they are one, and accept the gifts, God will raise an apostle or a prophet to correct their course. ”

“God will raise apostles and prophets in America,” he added, “to correct his church.”
