Christian minister claims her gift of prophecy allows her to predict movie plots

Appearing on God Knows with hosts Cindy and Mike Jacobs, Christian minister Rebecca Greenwood explained that she first became aware of her gift of prophecy when she discovered she had the ability to predict what was going to happen in movies.

-snip-
Greenwood then went on to describe becoming aware of her prophetic powers, explaining that, not only did she predict that killer bees would be coming to the U.S. from Africa, but that when she went to the movies with her husband she could predict what was going to happen next.

“And I’m really good at going to movies. And I didn’t know why. And lots of times, we could be sitting, watching a movie, and I’d look at Greg even before I understood I was a prophet, and I’m like, ‘This is gonna happen. This is gonna happen. This is gonna be the outcome,” she explained. “And lots of times, he would tell me, ‘Don’t tell me what’s gonna happen at the movie. If you understand before it’s happening, I don’t wanna know before it happens’.”

In fact I often feel I could write the scripts. Silly minister, so damn full of herself. It takes no special gift to predict what will happen in a freaking movie.

Typical evening involves him dropping in, rolling a blunt or two, cracking open a couple of beers and going over future movie scripts.

Damn blunts though, I keep telling Jesus that I prefer old fashioned ZigZags when imbibing in a little herbal refreshment. Can't seem to make him understand that tobacco wraps tend to ruin the taste of some good Kush. I think he's just worried that he get caught driving with the stuff.

I can kinda understand blunts, but seriously kids, if the weed you get is so bad you need to roll it in a Phillies Blunt wrapper to get it down, you need to change dope dealers.

14. I've seen this woman's "prophesies."
Sat Mar 28, 2015, 01:21 PM
Mar 2015

She's really good at predicting natural and un-natural disasters.

AFTER they happen.

Her "prophesies" are like the ones in supermarket tabloids.
Really vague. "A beloved actor will get sick, and maybe die."

Or really obvious. "There will be trouble in the Middle East."

Every time, and I do mean EVERY time these people make a specific "prophesy," it comes out dead wrong.

Remember Hal Lindsey (currently wrting at WND) and his book "The Late Great Planet Earth?"

We were supposed to have a nuclear war with the Soviet Union and Red China, 30 years ago.

Gee, what happened?

I'm also on record predicting that the eventual Beetlejuice 2 will suck, and I further predict that Burton's acolytes will insist that it's a work of sublime genius.

I'm betting she really thinks she got the short end of the "prophesy" stick, there.

"Waddya mean MOVIE PLOTS? You couldn't have given me...oh...I don't know.....Stock Market closing prices 6 months in advance? The ability to see where a fatal car accident would happen? POWERBALL NUMBERS? NOOOOOO...I get Movie Plots. Might as well have given me Dust Bunny locating, for crying out loud."

Most movies are so scripted that it is pretty easy to predict what is going to happen. I do that all the time and I definitely am not infused with divine inspiration.
