Guess what I did this week. I got an attorney and I dissolved our stinking 501c3 in this church because the Government ain't gonna tell me what I can and what I can't say. So, IRS we don't need your stupid tax-exempt status. You can put it in a bag and burn it in your front yard for all we care. I renounced 501c3 communism in this church.

Far-right Tennessee Pastor Greg Locke told his congregation on Sunday that he dropped his tax-exempt status after a non-profit group urged the Internal Revenue Service to look into his politically charged sermons.

Locke, who is the pastor at Mt. Juliet's Global Vision Bible Church, outside of Nashville has stirred plenty of controversy for his outlandish sermons that have urged his followers not to get vaccinated, claimed VP Kamala Harris is leading a sex trafficking ring, and most recently that Christians can't be Democrats.

"You cannot be a Christian and vote Democrat in this nation. I don't care how mad that makes you. You can get as pissed off as you want to," he screamed during a sermon in mid-May.

"You cannot be a Christian and vote Democrat in this nation. They are God-denying demons that butcher babies and hate this nation," he raged.
