Greg Locke Heckles Congregants During Easter Service: ‘Take Them Stupid Masks Off!’
Greg Locke, pastor of Global Vision Bible Church is well known for his massive social media following and politically incorrect social media rants about politics and religion.
Readers of Protestia will recognize him as the foul-mouthed, spouse-abusing, small-time Tennessee pastor who notoriously divorced his wife of two decades and quickly married his secretary, claimed that “Mitch McConnell is being controlled by Illuminati hand signals,” threatened a Dunkin Donut worker with kicking his teeth down his throat, and recently prophecied a massive false flag shooting was about to take place in America.
Now, Locke has used part of his Easter sermon to berate congregation members who were wearing masks during the service, telling them, “Take those stupid masks off,” and describing anyone choosing to wear one as “crack-smoking crazy.”
[Law enforcement] will roll up in tanks. They will drop down from helicopters. And I promise you it won’t be a dozen police out there from Wilson County and from Mt. Juliet. It’s going to take the entire United States military to roll up into this parking lot and tell us, ‘Hey, we can’t worship Jesus, and that we got to shut our church down, and that we can’t preach, and we can’t pray, and we can’t…’ You have lost your mind if you think I’ve given in to that! You have lost your mind if you think I’m giving into that mess! We are staying open forever! Forever!
And unless you’re under a doctor’s orders — and a few of you are — take them stupid masks off when you come to Global Vision [Bible Church]. There, I said it on Easter. Take them stupid masks off.

[Speaking of wearing masks:] That’s crack smokin’ crazy is what that is.
h/t to that hive of scum and villainy known as the Friendly Atheist for the video and transcript.
He is right……… Take them stupid masks off !!!!!!!!!! What is wrong with you people , just maybe you have believed the devils lie. You know what happens when the blind leads the blind don’t you ???
A person is not in sin for choosing to wear a mask in church
Who said it was a sin? The “pastor” said take it off. Most in “churches” believe you should submit to your shepherd(pastor). He is the one with the knowledge You pew or chair sitter need to come there and listen and learn from him.
Locke is clearly disqualified as a pastor. What authority do you suppose he has? Let him get his own house in order before he supposes authority over the church.
Who was talking about sin here….not me….. A mask is not going to keep you from catching their fake virus, nor is it pleasing to GOD. Who hath bewitched you, so called professing Christian/s ??????………. Is it the god “media” ???????????… Are you scared to go to prison for not wearing a mask ? If you are, then you have no chance of one day soon, losing your freedom or your life for standing in JESUS mighty name. To stand, love, and live for the Truth, and to speak against the wickedness, perversion and sin of this wicked and adulterous generation is gonna cost you ! Turn and run if you must but the very elect will stand………………………………….
If certain people are afraid, that is unfortunate. But berating them for wearing a mask isn’t going to help encourage them to take it off. Let people make the decision for themselves either direction. If many aren’t wearing them, eventually people start to feel comfortable and will stop wearing them. We are supposed to be gracious and kind to those who are brothers and sisters in Christ. Also, if new people are visiting your church because it’s Resurrection Sunday, you should want them to feel welcome. This was definitely the wrong way for this “pastor “ to handle this.
Isn’t wearing a mask for the ridiculous reasons people do a sign of worshiping Caesar. I thought we Christians were not supposed to be afraid of death, not that we need to be because of a version of the flu, unless we are old, obese, or especially both.
Maybe we should treat this like a Romans 14 issue. “ Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in the way of a brother or sister.”
If you’re scared and you’re convinced a mask will help you and you want to wear one, then wear one. If you don’t, then don’t.
“GOD did not give me the spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind” and if you think you need to wear a mask because Caesar and the medical mafia tells you too then you need to “examine yourself, whether ye be in the faith”. And by the way, there are far too many women with way too much to say, in this antiChrist, militant feminist, jezebel generation. As a man of GOD, women do not tell me what to do nor how to interpret the Holy Scriptures !
People need to be Bereans in every way. Instead of believing what they’re told without question, they need to do their own research. Fact is, masks are downright dangerous and can cause serious health problems and yes, I can back that up with at least 50 articles, most peer-reviewed.
You’ve heard that 51 million people died during the Spanish Flu; what they don’t tell you is that most died from bacterial pneumonia from wearing masks! Not only do masks NOT prevent a virus from penetrating them, but the Chinese made disposable masks contain dangerous toxins; the cloth masks that so many wear decrease your oxygen intake, and studies now suggest that breating in your own bacteria can lead to throat cancer. Ever hear of “mask mouth?” Check it out!
Why all the hysteria over a virus with a 99.8% recovery rate? Wake up, sheeple! It’s not about health; it’s all about CONTROL!
I believe covid was created in a CCP biolab in Wuhan and deliberately spread to the west to distract and wreck economies. They succeeded and gave power to political and corporate entities to control populations. We now are saddled by a president who is a functional idiot and bullied by a Marxist cabal in congress and media. We can thank God covid is not a death sentence for most people. Masks are not effective against viruses of all kinds. I won’t berate anyone who chooses to wear one. I only put one on to do business in a store or office, but it comes off as soon as I’m outside. I wait for the day when people regain their senses and demand freedom. May the Lord’s wisdom prevail!
Locke is a grade-A nutter. How this man gets presumably intelligent individuals to follow his ‘teaching’ (I use the term VERY loosely) is absolutely beyond me.
There’s a good reason why Americans are abandoning the contemporary church in droves and atheist websites have so much ammunition – it’s guys (and girls) like this character.
