David and Jason Benham joined former Alaska GOP Senate candidate Joe Miller on his radio program last week to publicize their new book, “Whatever the Cost,” and came up with some extraordinary statements.
Marriage equality, he said, is “the worst thing that could have ever happened to our nation” but “the best thing that could have ever happened to the church,” because now Christians will “get a chance to experience real persecution” which will “purify” the church by separating “the wheat from the chaff.”
“I really believe that if we are going to embrace the purification process we have to welcome the fire that purifies,” he said. “And a Supreme Court decision like this is the very thing that God’s going to use to turn his church back to him.”
