Congress Members, Pastors Conduct Exorcism To Remove Satan From Capitol December 6, 2016 by Michael Stone
Separation of church and state? Members of congress meet with pastors to drive Satan out of “the halls of legislation.” Right Wing Watch reports dozens of members of congress met with conservative Christian pastors to drive Satan out of power in the capitol last week. Conservative pastors and members of congress gathered on Capitol Hill last week for a “Congressional-Clergy Town Hall.” Pseudo-historian David Barton of WallBuilders and anti-LGBT pastor Jim Garlow of the Jefferson Gathering were featured speakers at the prayer event. Adding insult to injury, at one point participants were even given access to the U.S. Senate chamber to practice their creepy Christian rituals. Two of the pastors who participated in the event, Dave Kistler of the North Carolina Pastors Network and Dale Walker of the Tennessee Pastors Network, discussed their experiences on the American Pastors Network’s “Stand in the Gap” radio program last Friday. Kistler revealed that U.S. Senate Chaplain Barry Black preached to participants and reportedly prophesied that a revival is about to sweep America and “it will commence … in the halls of Congress.” At one point in the program Walker declared: If God rules in the halls of legislation, it’s the pulpit’s benefit of being there, being on site and standing up and speaking the law of God to our elected leaders and praying for them. It’s been the absence of the pulpits is the reason why Satan has ruled in the halls of legislation. Kistler also revealed that in addition to praying in the Kennedy Caucus Room in the Capitol, pastors were given access to the U.S. Senate chamber by Rep. Louie Gohmert. Describing the experience in the senate chamber, Kistler said: … we got on our knees … and it sounded almost like a labor room as people were crying out to God for the revival that Chaplain Black believes is coming and that we believe is coming. Kistler continued: To do that in the Senate chamber was an absolutely astounding opportunity, and again it puts an exclamation point on the Senate chaplain’s assessment that revival is on the way and may indeed begin in the halls of Congress. Bottom line: Apparently it is legal for members of congress to participate in a de facto exorcism to drive Satan out of “the halls of legislation.” However, it is disappointing; it is creepy; and it is embarrassing. - See more at: http://www.patheos.com/blogs/progressiv ...

Dozens Of Members Of Congress Join End Times Rabbi For Prayer Rally In The Capitol Kyle MantylaBy Kyle Mantyla | April 28, 2016 10:47 am Last night, several members of Congress joined Religious Right activists in Washington, D.C., for the annual “Washington – A Man of Prayer” event, which seeks to be a “spiritual turning point for the nation as Americans witness Senators and members of Congress reaching out to God in penitent prayers from inside the nation’s Capitol.”
House Speaker Paul Ryan, Rep. Louie Gohmert, and Sen. James Lankford were among the dozens of members of Congress who participated in the event as they lined up and delivered short prayers, one after another, from the podium for nearly an hour and a half.
As in previous years, the prayer gathering was closed out by messianic End Times rabbi Jonathan Cahn who, just like last year, warned that America is on the verge of destruction for having legalized gay marriage nationwide.
In fact, Cahn has spent the last year repeatedly warning that all sorts of cataclysms are about the befall this nation, not one of which has actually happened, but for some reason organizers thought it prudent to bring him back to issue a similar warning again.
America, Cahn warned, “founded for the purpose and glory of God, drove God out of its government, out of its culture, out of its public squares. It celebrated ungodliness and called evil good and good evil” through legal abortion and marriage equality.
“It must be asked,” he said, “Supreme Court justices, where did you get the authority to overrule the rulings of the Most High? And by what authority did you strike down the laws of the Almighty? You are neither the highest court nor the final authority. There is a supreme judge with a supreme justice that does not sleep forever.”
“And Mr. President,” he continued, “when you assumed the office of your presidency, did you not lay your hand on the word of God and swear to before Him, ‘So help me God’? And yet, on the day that the Supreme Court struck down the order of God, you issued the order that the White House be illumined by the colors of the rainbow to celebrate that striking down. Mr. President, by what authority did you take the sacred colors of God’s covenant, the colors of His throne and the sign of His mercy in the face of judgment and turn them against the purposes of God and the word of God on which you swore your oath?”

Mazars and Deutsche Bank could have ended this nightmare before it started. They could still get him out of office. But instead, they want mass death. Don’t forget that.

I think its more a "coming out" thing. Where they break the seal on that hole in the Pentagon let it out then drive Satan (Cuthulu or whatever its called) around in the back of open topped, bullet to a Kennedy style limo. So everyone can have a good look and cheer.
He had to have had some unconventional backlighting there for a restaurant. I would think. Nordic? It reminds me of one of those shining a flashlight up under your face and telling a ghost story type shots.

Jonathan Cahn is not a Jewish Rabbi but a Messianic Jewish Rabbi.
Messianic Judaism are (mostly) former Jews that have accepted Jesus as the Messiah and are Christians in that they accept the New and Old Testament and believe Jesus is the Son of God, Divine, and accept the various aspects of conservative "end times style" Christianity. Most Jews and Christians consider Messianic Jews as Christians. Israel does not consider Messianic Jews as qualifying to the "Right of Return" as Jews.

It's a bright little light shining down specifically on the white tablecloth and bouncing back up into their faces. Lighting like this is often used in restaurants and in our filmed renditions of them. It's a nice soft light for the faces. Yes if it's too "sourcey" it can suggest the diabollical lit-from-below look.

Sorry Nordic, but you're dead wrong this time. Any photographers here?
If you look at the champagne being chilled behind Trump, to his right, you will see the light from a kleig that is hidden on the floor behind the table. The drapery is lit from the bottom-up. There is an overhead light too, but that's not what's responsible for Trump's facial appearance in this photo. It's also the reason Romney's face appears to be in shadow. On edit I should add, were an overhead light responsible for Trump's facial appearance the ice bucket would be in the shadow of Trump's body.
I suppose we'll never know. I think both Nordic and iam's takes are valid. I was just wondering. But if that is champagne being chilled, I thought both those dudes didn't drink. I would imagine the dinner was held in a private room, thus it was for them. It could be some fancy stupid water bottle I guess.

Oh, I think Nordic will agree. Take a look at the shadow cast by champagne bottle in the ice bucket. If it was primarily lit from above, it could not possibly cast a shadow on the wall above the bottle. A shadow cannot be cast upwards from the object being lit from above; it only happens when the object is lit from below it.
Hey, we all get it wrong once in a while. Remember my recent remark about Dees being black?
RE the OP. I think they're just refusing to stand for the national anthem.
