House of the Nazarene Martial Arts Pahrump Nevada

Anyone familiar with or ever come across this group? Or know if they’re still there?

board busting class for kiddies.

yay!

with a little jesus on the side!

more yay!

:rolleyes:

don’t screw with them. If you make one wrong move they turn all the water in your body into wine and then you’re one hurtin camper.

otherwise, the secret multiply fishes and loaves techniques will turn your sushi dinner into a nightmare by casting instant obesity onto you.
see how it worked on some of the students there?

lol

i wonder if they make you sign a contract…
…or do they just pass the plate around? lol

here they have this huge megachurch with like 20,000 in the congregation. complete with a little skateboard park & for a while there, yep you guessed it, a martial arts class/ except it was called Makkah or something like that (not krav maga though)… onward xtian soldiers lmao. what’s next a video arcade?

wwjd? what up, turn the other cheek. lol. maybe its a return to the old testament mentality of slaying heathens.

all right class, today are going to work on smiting techniques. Be careful though, not to slay thine selves

LOL! I imagine your jokes aren’t too far off of what this guy is probably claiming now :stuck_out_tongue: I doubt you’d be laughing if you knew the personally though… more likely you’d be fighting a losing battle to keep the contents of your stomach down :wink: Anyway, this guy used to be my teacher a loooooong time ago, and I’m just seeing if I can find out anymore about what’s he’s up to out there in Nevada (there’s some people here in Ohio who would like try and keep tabs on him :p).

As for contracts vs. collection plates… wouldn’t surprise me if he does actually combine both methods in some way :smiley:

God is a platypus. And sometimes a giant spider.

and he’s a flying spaghetti mosnter as well.

for feminists, god is a chick…with comfortable shoes and a prada bag and matching belt.

‘don’t bring your god up to me’ lol.

you know in the warner bros. cartoons, where the coyote sees the anvil/safe/boulder falling out of the sky and he opens the little black parasol over his head for protection?

god is the parasol.

edit-- you are a good sport b-rad. i’m sure the guys intentions are golden, it’s just that so many people try to hitch god up to their wagon for their own purposes and to market whatever they are trying to go. my gf’s best friend got sucked into this mega-church and it is no more than a cult imo. a way for a lazy con man to make a living by working a few hours a week, using his mouth only. <<---- draw your own parallels here :o

Actually, his intentions are anything but golden, which is why some people here want to keep track of him :wink: The truth is he’s most likely using the church angle as part tax scam, and also to get a mini cult of devout followers. Soon before I stopped studying with him here he began playing up the religious angle latter on and started trying to turn his school into a church. His actions towards a couple underage girls ruined his school here though, and started people really looking hard at his background. After all this he’d pop up once in awhile around here, but then kind of vanished. I heard law local law inforcement was starting to look into him too, but I’m not sure about that.

he certainly has a mish mash of things oing on there.

kempo jacket? check!
aikido pants? check!
shinai? check
boards?check!

are they skinny little boards? check!

what’s on the schedule?

kungfu and karate!

ok then, anything else?

jesus! yayyyyyyy!

Look the little girl broke the board with the power of prayer…

Before calling on Jeebus
After (praise be the lord)

You’re kidding me! This can’t be!!!

There’s a city called “Pahrump”??? :eek:

i love the american flag gi. nothing says american like wearing japanese clothes to study asian martial arts. I guess its not praise jesus and pass the amunition any more but rather hallelujah and hai yah. and seriously WTF WJD? i think he would turn the boards into bread. very very deadly bread that would then be used to vanquish the opposing masses. lot quicker and more inspiring than practicing horse stance and learning to swing a kendo stick.

I know some churches have a gym or family “entertainment/fitness” facility.

there are library, basket ball courts, ping pong, and even big screen tv and some shower and locker rooms etc.

there are some free driving lessons, free English classes and free gym and of course “free” Wushu lessons, too.

and everything is from donations. If you have a healthy congregation both spiritually and physically and why not!

:smiley:

christian wing chun!

yep, lots of churched have ma classes run in their basements and facilities.

and it’s still funny sometimes in how it is presented.

We’ve got a “Totally Christian Karate” 'round here.

I hope if he is not on the up and up that someone gets him nailed down quick.

the following was cut & pasted directly out of a page on “totally christian karate” webpage [thanks Oso]:

Physically, the art trains the student first to:

AVOID. If the student cannot avoid they must

ESCAPE If the student cannot escape they must

BLOCK - If they cannot block they must

CREATE PAIN - Just enough to get the attackers mind off of the attack

TAKE CONTROL - Minister to that person, because the Lord loves them as much as He loves us.

“Minister to that person, because the Lord loves them as much as he loves us.”??

you mean like … “for the love of god please stop pwning me”

if you can’t BLOCK, then you must get ktfo’d fall down and lay there…QUIETLY.

I can only imagine that one day enough Christians doing Wushu.

We may then start to see naming of moves from Christian beliefs and culture.

instead the usual daoist and buddhist names for the postures.

such as Saint Peter cathing the loads of fishes by the net-

it is only a post and does not represent any thing else.
