666 and Claims of Divinity
A pastor with a 666 tattoo is claiming he is God.
His name is Jose Luis de Jesus Miranda. His followers call him “Daddy.” He has said, ”The spirit that is in me is the same spirit that was in Jesus of Nazareth.” (I got this link from )
He did serve in prison for petty theft and has said he was a heroin addict. Here is the link: Link
Is this the one or should we look for another?

nice guy
definitely not Jesus in any way, shape or form. Very dangerous man.
thidfaisd!
I was third!
I think it’s kind of… loopy.
I didn’t know God was mexican.
that seems absolutely preposterous.
LOL not quite.
creepy
Mr. DMV or Jose Luis de Jesus Miranda? Eh. I’ll just worship myself.
everyone is crazy. that’s what i think.
LOL
He looks like I could kick his ass. That’s too funny.
looks like we’ve found him… bahaha. kidding. I think we’ve better keep looking..
jesus wasn’t white either, sistah.
Woah…uhh. Satan? Maybe? lol
oh WOW.
Uh… no
Do the blind receive their sight, and the lame walk; are the lepers cleansed, and the deaf hear; are the dead raised up, and the poor have the gospel preached to them?
What did you go to Miami to see? A reed shaken in the wind?
OMG, it’s Miguel!
i’m thinking we should keep looking. that’s definately the best decision.
A pastor with a 666 tattoo. I don’t know about you.. but that alone just raises a red flag. >.>
I think I’ll pass.
wow.. how sad….. keep looking
“antichrist is the best person in the world”
dude’s twisted.
Keep on looking.
Fight Mental Illness Stigma
Or better yet, stop looking.
he’s probably more of a saint than all the other people out their who claim to be religious…
From the article: The church that he began building 20 years ago in Miami resembles no other:
# Followers have protested Christian churches in Miami and Latin America, disrupting services and smashing crosses and statues of Jesus.
# De Jesus preaches there is no devil and no sin. His followers, he says, literally can do no wrong in God’s eyes.
# The church calls itself the “Government of God on Earth” and uses a seal similar to the United States.
Compare to:
–Then Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples,“The scribes and the Pharisees sit on Moses’ seat, so practice and observe whatever they tell you—but not what they do. For they preach, but do not practice.”
–Jesus answered them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, everyone who commits sin is a slave to sin.”
–Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would have been fighting, that I might not be delivered over to the Jews. But my kingdom is not from the world.”
If he’s the same guy, he’s changed his message. A lot.
What did the men in white say to the disciples in Acts 1? They said, “Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into the sky? This Jesus, who has been taken up from you into heaven, will come in just the same way as you have watched Him go into heaven.”
You should probably keep looking.
very very strange and creepy
J.H. is on his shirt, hahaha. Well, that was a smartass remark of you at the end there. Well, as I see this will only be grounds for mocking the guy, I will not participate in the commenting further.
Derek
bad ass.
oh man, i hope he is god. =)
attention seeking wannabe celebrity, that’s what he is
yeah um…..blasphemy.
and 666….that tells me something scary.
he’s on CRACK. hah.
That is almost funny… but it’s just too sad.
Haha what an entrepreneur. its also pretty sick too
uhh, i believe we should continue our search.
=]
uh, I’m going to go with a no
eww thats just creepy…what a wacko…he’s definately the anti-christ
he’s the one you seek if you’re desperately seeking someone.
Otherwise he’s just another con-artist.
Keep looking. Why would Jesus have the mark of the beast???
I’m thinking that guy is just some asshole that wants media attention. I’m not worried.
that’s thilly
nah.
it wouldn’t be a tattooo…
Sounds like the right guy.
Give him a shot, eh? You people dont like him just because he’s Mexican. I can see it in your eyes.
let’s not look into it too much
Wow. Uhhh…If he can get people to honestly believe, and follow him, all the power to ‘im I guess. Otherwise, err… No. Just…no.
I say keep looking.
I’m thinking maybe not…just a first impression.
he also said that jesus and the antichrist are the same thing.
i say this guys a nut. next.
I’m pretty damn convinced. Where do I sign away my possessions and get complimentary kool-aid?
Not quite irony.
But close.
Wow, that’s stupid…. I’ll keep looking.
i don’t think we need to look for the devil for salvation
besides… jesus alredy came, so… we need not look anymore
If the dude is that stupid to get a 666 tattoo, he is obviously not the Antichrist.
Besides, everyone knows that *I* am the Antichrist. I mean, duh.
Hmmmm…the verse “many shall come in my name…”…I’ll pass on this one .’Til The Next
we shouldn’t look at all.
I totally want the Antichrist to be a chick. That would kick ass. Too much testosterone in the Bible. We need a Jezebel / Delilah figure to seduce the world and make every straight guy and gay or bi chick sell their souls to Satan.
It’s sad that people believe him.
Sounds like a disaster waiting to happen.
If it is the Antichrist yer lookin for …maybe.
no need to ask. i think you already know how we’ll all respond. =P
Don’t drink the Kool-Aid!
Not quite..
I just wrote an article on this guy. What a crazy strange guy he is! He said of Jesus: “I am greater than him . . . I teach better than him . . . I won’t die. Even if you tried to kill me! I will be president of the biggest government that this earth has experienced. I’m going to change the whole world.” Hmm….
This is the One! When are they passing the offering plate??
uhm, he kinda sounds like a person trying to get famous … or whatever .
should we keep looking? if you even have to ASK that, the answer is probably ’yes’.
Probably the best your going to get.
This is the one, man.
He is my new god.
I’m not holding my breath. Sounds a bit presumptious to me! My advice: keep looking.
Let’s look for another, shall we? Nice quote from John the Baptist there, Dan!
“For many will come in my name, claiming ‘I am the Christ’ and deceive many.” Guess what? The Messiah already came to earth. When He comes back, there won’t be any question about if He’s “the one.”
actually kind of sounds slightly crazy.
Antichrist?….no….
Crazy….probably….
dumb for people to believe him….definitely.
…but just in case you do, i hear the grape and fruit punch are the best…
nah – many will come, etc, but you can be sure they will come to xanga first, eh?
haha, there is some lady on xanga saying she’s jesus too. haha. i forgot her name, lol.
No Way this Guy is Discusting….
I intend to keep looking. If this guy is telling the truth then I am, well I don’t know what to say here, normally I would say going to hell but they claim there is no hell. This guy is a psychopath in my opinion. He definitely has some loony followers also. It is my understanding that Christ was the messiah and carried final instructions from God to his people. He might return again but that return would be as himself not as a drugged up mexican.
These people saying that we’d know for sure whether the Messiah has returned are silly. Jesus didn’t have an enormous following, and some of his contemporaries were much, much bigger than him.
I got an icky feeling from reading it.
Why do people tempt like that? I take the end times stuff pretty serious and to see someone just flaunt it out there like a red flag in front a bull? Crazy!
I think we better keep looking. Either that or there’s going to be a cult suicide of people in black Nikes with 666 tattoos.
LOL – Who’s YOUR daddy?
Con artist
hahaha
what a noob
stop smoking heroine and maybe you wont think you’re satan
Hmmmm. Scary.
wow
<3Always,
Nary
That’s just freakin’ weird.
If you’re implying antichrist, isn’t that just someone who denies Christ? Are you implying wolf in sheeps clothing? It looks more like a cotton and polyesther blend. But what if Jesus came back like that? Oh wait, someone else already asked that question. What if God was one of us? Wait, I think that was taken too?
Maybe he’s a guy who wants his 15 minutes now?
It’s called the AntiChrist… keep looking.
Definitely keep looking.
Call me when he’s raised up the dead.
I think NOT. 666 is the number of the beast. I don’t think Jesus would be associated with that. I think I’ll keep looking, thank yew.
it’s the end of the world as we know it
it’s the end of the world as we know it
it’s the end of the world as we know it…
and i feel fine
“There is no Satan and there is no sin”????
I think he’s STILL addicted to heroine. And the “vision” was just drug-induced.
wow. whatta keeper.
I think you definitely ought to keep looking for another…
it’s the end of the world as we know it
it’s the end of the world as we know it
it’s the end of the world as we know it…
and i feel fine

Heh…. I just saw that comment, I LOVE THAT SONG!!
But seriously? I agree with Aslans_daughter: I take the End of Times stuff pretty seriously as well and this guy…. CERTAINLY…… is NOT someone people should look up to, I could be wrong, but I think the article is right, he’s probably going to get about 3,000 people or more to kill themselves for this cause.
He should be locked away somewhere. But he has enough people brainwashed that, if something were to be done, they’d go after whoever hurt him, or locked him up, or said things against him.
Hmm, I didn’t know Jesus was Mexican. He may be another Charles Manson, so, we should look further I think.
the gut is clearly either insane or extremly smart and manipulative. Ever head of the “JONESTOWN MASSACRE”… that was messed up. nearly 1,000 people all took poison rather than have the goverment come and take them back to the US (or they thought kill and destroy them i guess). In the end the leader, wahst his name?, didnt drink the poison but had someone shoot him. I hope this does not end similarly. But he does have many followers already. Sad.

This is weird… ^^;;
I don’t quite know what I have to say on the subject.
hmmmmm……… things that make you go hmmmmmmmm……..
I’m assuming you figured the channel thing out.
No I don’t think he’s the antichrist, because according to the Bible the antichrist won’t claim divinity until a few years into the Tribulation, and we aren’t living in the Tribulation. Not to mention we have no reconstruction of the Jewish temple, and this man is not a political leader. He just wants publicity I believe. The 666 tattoo sends it ridiculously over the top.
-Jared
Well, this probably means it’s the Apocalypse, so there’s not much time to look anyway.
Personally I think The One, if he/she exists or will exist, will make themselves known at the very end.
plus, this guy sounds more like the antichrist. According to the bible, he will have the 666 mark and will gain many followers with his oratory.
Jim Jones. He’s another Jim Jones.
wacko? anybody?
and why the heck do these guys who claim to be from God always have so much money?
i’m not saying being rich is bad, but seriously, if he really was from God and wanted to spread God’s word around, he’d be using that money instead of buying diamond encrusted rollexes… AND! what he’s saying is completely oposite of what Jesus said. duh!
Before we pass judgement, we should know his opinions on Xanga versus Myspace
if he is, everyone that posted so far is screwed.
oh scary.
he’s about as God-like as a popsickle stick… and thats more credit than he deserves…
sorry, but i just cant imagine Christ as a former heroine addict, and although i can imagine Him as a jailbird, it would be at no fault of His own, whereas this guy got stuck in the clink for theft, a bona fide SIN… this guy very much looks like a thug so far… and, as everyone else has pointed out, those who sport the typical “666″ are usually trying to convey the mark of the beast… in other words, direct opposition to God…
marilyn manson is more likely to be the messiah than this nutter… okay, i take that back, but theres still no chance in hell (or heaven for that matter) that jose luis jesus miranda is God…
oh, and to answer your question: keep looking…
that’s hilarious.
umm… it’s almost like he’s trying to fulfill prophesies of the anti-Christ on purpose… or at least a particular interpretation of them…
that’s something anyone can do; i don’t think we need to be quite scared yet… haha
and the search goes on….
HALLELUJAH, IT’S THE NEW CHRIST!!!
No comment.
Very doubtful
let’s bring out the book of Bill Hicks.
Such a weird belief. Lot of Christians wear crosses around their necks. You think when Jesus comes back he’s gonna want to see a fucking cross, man?
“Oaww”
May be why he hasn’t shown up yet.
“Man, they’re still wearing crosses. Fuck it, I’m not goin, dad. No, they totally missed the point. When they start wearing fishes I might show up again, but… Let me bury fossil heads with you Dad.”
You know, kinda like going up to Jackie Onassis with a rifle pendant on, you know.
“Thinkin’ of John, Jackie. We love him. Just tryin to keep that memory alive, baby.”
Really, really don’t think so. When Jesus does come back, I’m pretty sure we’ll know it.
Dangerous.
Besides, the AntiChrist (not saying he is the AntiChrist) will be going around claiming he is God and the people will follow him.
Shocking.
But I don’t think he is God… Weirdo.
I don’t know … he doesn’t quite seem like what we’re looking for. The 666 tattoo is a bit of a showstopper for me.
-Guru on the Hill
The Bible says that we will know when God comes back…it’s going to be pretty darn clear to us. So no, if you have to ask, it isn’t Jesus.
“Is this the one or should we look for another?”
LOL
NEXT!
hahaa…he just wants to be famous….he sounds more like a big money kinda guy….u know..with his “followers” caliing him “daddy”…..ew..gross out.
I heard about him (kinda hard to miss…). He also claimed he is the anti-Christ. I think he is just a severely confused individual seeking attention. It seems to be working.
Um, yeah, just like you are the father of Anna Nicole’s baby!
Technically, I’d say the spirit that is in me is in the same spirit that was in Christ (the Holy Spirit). But that doesn’t make me God.
A lot of word-faith movement people consider themselves gods. I’m not sure about considering themselves the God from the Bible.
A lot of crazy people have visions of grandeur where they see themselves as someone great (Jesus is common). Perhaps this guy is doing the same thing with a twist.
I’m cool with forgiving people, but I don’t think God would have been a thief or a drug addict. God can use people who have been there, but doing that stuff is inconsistent with his nature.
It’s sad that people follow this guy.
Keep on looking… he’s just a little creepy
Ha! Funny.
I think he did too much heroin.
Oh Holy Spirit! I have seen the Divine! Hallelujah!
C-R-A-Z-Y.
That’s freaky. He’s definately not Jesus though.
How creepy…This sooooo reminds me of JIM JONES in Guyanna…. All those people just drank all that Kool-aid, knowing it had cyanide in it, because HE said he was God… How gross.
Nah,
God wouldn’t be mexican or puerto rican
he’d be canadian
I’ve got a hunch.
no more preposterous than some carpenter from nazareth claiming to be the son of god.
Yeah, definitely not. When He comes, we’ll know.
This is the one.
Repent.
Please tell me that the real Anti Christ is going to do something a bit more scheming than say “let’s all get the letters 666 as a tatoo on us. No, no, I’m Jesus, not the Antichrist.” I think the real question Dan, is this the real Antichrist, should we stop looking? To that, I’d say this guy looks pretty powerful.
I’m thinking it’s him.
I was always told it would be undeniable in the hearts of His followers.
Next!

No wonder people think Christians are crazy….its this dudes fault
The sad part is this fake is decieving so many people and benefiting from it…I read an article saying he drives a BMW and he was showing off all 6 Rolexes he has all at the expense of his followers.
ehh sorry I guess that didnt come out…oh well.
Jesus was without sin. Lets see if he can beat that. Oh WAIT! He CAN’T.
Romans 3:23 For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.
Besides Jesus is God.
why does he have a 666 tatoo if hes God?
Don’t tell me this guy is at it again?
Where can I get a vest like that? LMAO?
Ok lets talk about delusional nutt cases for a second… Specimen A.. Jesus Miranda dude over here
Specimens B-Z… anyone who would follow that sad fellow and call him daddy that wasnt a natural born child of his.
BTW is he flipping people off in that pic?
That is NOT in any way, shape or form God.
He’s probably starving for attention, or corrupt some gullible individual’s mind
which he probably has.
70′s tie – can’t be
i cant talk
i like how if jesus was alive in our time no one would believe him. we are all so cynical and suspicious. so who even cares. when jesus comes back someone will probably run over him with a car and then we’ll all go to hell.
No.
Seems like more of an Antichrist to me. That is super super weird. I can’t believe he actually has followers…
keep on lookin’…that guy is creepy
Oh gosh…
no way! having a tattoo with 666…that says something right there! no, not him at all. i guess we’ll keep waiting for revalations won’t we?
If he starts serving Kool-Aid…RUN!
So, basically, being a Christian we believe Christ lives in our hearts… and the Holy Spirit also dwells within us… so is this some kind of a joke?
Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeep looking.
And he looks like a televangelist. That’s always a red flag.
Eh, it’s as good as we’re going to find.
he looks creepy
and i actually started laughing when i read that
seriously…daddy?
lmao
so NOT GOD. “every eye will see and every ear will hear…”… yeah, he’s NOT GOD. at all. hello peoples? 666? yeah, don’t think so.
hahahahaha.
That’s funny.
No.
seriously? who the heck knows for sure*shrugs* would be sorta cool if the savior had been in some trouble as a human wouldn’t it?
Wait a minute . . . didn’t Jesus say he wouldn’t have to tell people he was back, because you’d KNOW he was back?
he is definately not the Lord Jesus Christ. The bible says that everyone will know when Jesus comes again. Like a theif in the night, like lightning from the east to the west..this guy didnt even come like a theif in the night.
Oh definatly… hes the one fo sho
Obviously not and people are SO stupid for claiming that kind of thing.
Maybe he’s still on some heroin. That man is plain ol’ crazy.
hahaha
hahaha
hahaha
feh. the world will end when and if it chooses….or when the sun explodes. *shrug* I doubt I’llg et to see either, so whatever.
The only miracle this guy did was to convince almost a million people that he is the Second Coming, who lives in the ’burbs. I wonder if he likes carpentry as much as he likes booze.
