This gets us into a dark chapter in the history of early New England. After praying for people already suffering from the flu, Copeland said, “Flu, I bind you off of the people in the name of Jesus.” In all of what she had to say, I was struck by 13 words. That’s not what sent me to the Good Book when Copeland spoke about the flu. I don’t believe in any of that stuff about faith curing diseases like sepsis and cancer, but I’ve always thought people who believe in the power of will should at least be heard with respect. We could hang in there for maybe two or three rounds of dueling verses, but then the ladies always obliterated us with a nuclear Bible blast. The Christian Science ladies won the Bible shootouts with us. Other kids were drinking and driving convertibles by then. Yes, indeed, it was nerdiness taken to an almost unimaginable extreme.

We went there to get in Bible quotation shootouts with the elderly Christian Science ladies who stood out front of the church with their Bibles in their arms. On weekends, my buddies and I used to go down to the First Church of Christ, Scientist, a gift to the community of Concord from Baker Eddy. But for several years when I was a kid, I lived in Concord, New Hampshire, which is sort of the Rome of Christian Science because it’s near Bow, where Christian Science founder Mary Baker Eddy was born. I know that sounds crazy to a lot of people. the multitude of the whoredoms of the well-favored harlot, the mistress of witchcrafts, that selleth nations through her whoredoms, and families through her witchcrafts" – Nahum 3:1 tweet this Her argument was that people of true faith can’t get sick because Jesus Christ bore away their illnesses with his death on the cross. “We don’t have a flu season,” she told followers of the Copelands' enormous television ministry.

Copeland, a founder with her husband, Kenneth, of Kenneth Copeland Ministries, denied there is any such thing as a flu season.

Then, sadly, I attended the University of Michigan, where liberals forced me to drink beer and take other potions.Īt any rate, as a kid, I studied and was taught the Bible pretty intensely, and this week, when I saw Copeland on TV talking about the flu, I found myself diving back into it for answers. I grew up in a religious household and attended a church-based high school. It’s been a while, but I find I am on familiar ground even after all this time.

Well, I have to say this for Tarrant County televangelist Gloria Copeland: She has truly steered me back into the Bible.
