Did you ever wonder why these people are making millions preaching G_d’s word and your not? Could it be they are at G_d’s right hand?
These men are direct descendants, in the Lord, from Elmer Gantry.
Until G_d speaks directly to us, we must take our directions from these Men of G_d.
Robertson spoke from his personal feelings as he later said. G_d did not tell him to kill Chavez.
I do wonder why G_d would need special forces to kill someone. He did create the universe.
Oh well, G_d is talking to them.

I often wonder if God’s not smiling right now, because incidents like this serve several of His purposes:
1. It reminds us that we’re all human and imperfect by our very nature.
2. It reminds us that not everyone who claims to be Christian is.
3. It keeps us ever vigilant not to be swayed by and then blindly follow someone who professes to speak daily with God and know what He wants.
4. It reminds us everyone deserves our forgiveness, just as God offers His forgiveness to everyone.

I’m not trying to be cynical. I just believe God has has not so gently reminded Mr. Robertson of item #1 above. And that’s gotta put a tiny smile on His face, in my extremely humble opinion. :^)

WWJD with Robertson ?

Well, OK...maybe not. But those old boys like Robertson, Dobson, etc... could use a good smack upside the head...
