By Faith You Can Move Mountains (How I Can Lift a Fridge)
This has been quite a remarkable year in my life. My son, despite his liberal views, made me very proud by being accepted into Harvard. He has done very well in his freshman year and is touring Europe for this summer.
Only weeks ago, you may remember I received accolades myself when the State of Georgia ordered me to become a juror and help judge the guilty. The case took over two weeks, my friends, but I’ll tell you what: it was well worth it and justice was served in the end.
At this time last year, as some of you may know, I was put in the hospital after suffering severe chest pain, not relieved by my nitro. I was diagnosed with NSTEMI (non-ST segment MI), meaning that one of my coronary arteries is partially blocked and that due to my cardiac enzyme levels being improper, I likely have some damage to my heart muscle.
After hearing this news, I admit my heart was burdened and my mind went to a very dim place. I did not want to die, not yet, and not see my son grow into having his own family. My wife, who is having an amazing year herself, and I want to see our eventual grandkids and show them the love they deserve. To do this, however, I know I must be strong in faith and health.
I have prayed and long asked for your prayers as well, for my health and specifically my heart. Day and night, I’ve gone to God and asked him to give me the strength to live another 70 years! This August, I will turn 51-years-old.
This summer I’ve had the honor and pleasure of being a volunteer at our local Vacation Bible School. This year we’ve focused on how through faith, anything is possible. We are teaching the youth that we can do all thing through Christ, the source of our strength. (Phil 4: 13).
Laughter is truly the best medicine, and it is with working with children and indoctrinating them with the message of Christ I have found joy and a healing peace in my heart. Here is a video short in which I demonstrate to them how by faith, we can do anything! Even an old man, with perhaps a bad heart, can lift a fridge over any obstacle!
God bless and thank you for your continued prayers.

This is more proof of how we can do anything by faith. It would put out the back of any man who wasn’t praying and trusting in the Lord. Thank you for sharing this word of inspiration, Abe.

If that weighs 800 pounds how come the back of the truck’s rear suspension doesn’t droop down, too?
Why was the paneling of the fridge making so much noise, like it was hollow?

Exactly, I’d never thought of that, but you’re absolutely right. Considering how badly the back of our car sags under the weight of only 400 pounds of bricks and sand bags. Abe, you’ve been caught.

Well, about 99% of what comes out of Abe’s mouth is mean-spirited, so it’s time he gets a taste of his own medicine. If my cat had Abe’s face, I’d shave her ass and teach her to walk backwards.

So the prick who admits to sending kittens to be euthanized is calling me an animal abuser for making a joke about shaving my cat’s ass, something which I would never do.
You’re the worst kind of hypocrite, and if you were ever on death row I’d pull the switch with a grin on my face.

Like hell that’s a real fridge. It’s obvious it’s hollow. Just out of interest, why was your wife filming? I mean, it’s a video of you lifting a fridge into a truck. Who wants to watch that? She could have been helping you instead, thereby minimising the risks of both serious injury to you and us having to listen to your obscene grunting noises.

What’s a ‘lipstick’ lesbian?
Obviously, I did read the article. It’s about Abe having had non ST segment myocardial infarction last year, and how now he is able to lift an 800lb fridge. It is also bullshit, at least the part about the fridge. I’m not saying the rest of it isn’t true though, just the implausible part about the ’800 pound’ fridge that didn’t make the truck’s suspension drop.

Have you ever tried to lift a refrigerator? I regularly lift and train quite a bit, and I cannot lift one. Whatever it weighs, he hoisted it over his head and carried it. You cannot tell me that is not God and faith allowing him to do this. Any man in his shape and condition should collapse under such a weight and pressure.

“You cannot tell me that is not God and faith allowing him to do this.”
Sure I can. Read:
That is not God and faith allowing him to do this.
Satisfied? You said it yourself, Mr. “I’m going to be a doctor someday”: He should have collapsed due to his age and condition. Unless, of course, it’s fake. Which, like the Bible, God, Rudolph and the Boogeyman, it is.

Here’s an alternative theory to faith: it’s not a real fridge. You are deliberately avoiding the point about the truck’s suspension not dropping in an attempt to convince us that God helped him lift the fridge. I must commend you on your faith, however. It is quite brave to take a stand with no facts or logic to back you up, nothing except blind (and incorrect)belief.

Those with little faith have their hearts hardened, and may not get a chance for redemption before eternal judgment. Just think about that before opening your sin filled mouth to try to disrespect an act of faith, you know who you is and to who I am talking.

“I have no idea what you just said boy because you don’t type proper.”
I have no idea what you just attempted to express, young man, due to the fact that you improperly used typed English language to state your point.
Abe, can you seriously expect to lead people to faith with blatant deceit? You are the definition of a true backwoods redneck. I see GOD is working on striking down your evil soul through your weak heart. That GOD is the GOD of evolution with which Darwin placed his faith. Survival of the fittest. You are not of the fittest, therefore you will not survive naturally for many more years.
Tricking the uneducated is your tactic and will likely be the cause of your own demise. You present the Devil’s work in your ethics.
MY WORK!

See you in Hell, fat boy. We’ll carve your fat rump for bacon when you get here.
Looking forward to your visit,

I like how “god” makes people who believe in him suffer or get injured. And if the people who suffered or got injured gets well, they thank “god”. Yea, that makes sense.
I’ve been an atheist for as long as I can remember. Not even once have I got badly injured. Looks like god likes atheists more than he like christians.
