Loiusiana Governor special guest speaker at UPC

[Parkbench]

The last time Bro. R. was in our city he along with the pastor declared a defeat of the Prince of our city. This was after a 30 day fast etc.

Bro. R also hinted that there was a politician in our city who had to be defeated (spiritually) before the Prince of the City fell.

Does anyone know what signs to look for which might indicate that all of the above took place or is it something that we just have to believe and may never see the results?

Maybe we need the Govenor to visit our church.

Did ya'll have to amend the Louisiana state constitution to even ALLOW that?

Back in the 1970's when that rascal Edwin Edwards was Governor he was a great friend of the UPC in the state and was invited behind the pulpit at campmeeting to speak to the congregation. He was quite the showman and knew how to get the crowd revved up.

That relationship came in handy several times as the UPC's influence with the Governor helped the UPC several times in dealings with the state.

1970s was before my time in LA, but I do remember in the mid80s when I was licensed with the UPC, seeing Edwin Edwards on the platform at campmeeting.

He was quite the showman, and very entertaining. :-)

Yes he was.

And if I might add, a disgrace to the state!
