Our God cares for the poor and oppressed, those crying out in pain who have been forsaken by all. Now God is rebuking all the Christian false prophets who have identified God with the rich, the affluent, the proud, the strong, the indifferent, and the unfeeling power brokers of this world.

Take for example the recent false prophecy concerning the Australian Elections of 2007 by Kenneth Copeland, a famous televangelist who believes that he is a little god.
Either he is a very fallible little god, or some very prominent Australian ministries are misquoting him.

Should we now "deny sense knowledge", "speak to things that are not as though they were" and declare that John Howard really was elected?

So far it looks like Bernard was right.

John Howard in his resignation speech said that he has left Australia a "stronger and prouder" nation than it was 11 years ago. Christians were praying that this state of affairs continue, but my Bible says that God resists the proud. Therefore, I conclude it is God's will to strip Australians of their pride and independent strength, so that they may call up
