From The New York Post:
The TikTok-famous bishop who was brutally stabbed while giving a sermon in Australia on Thursday urged those rioting in anger at the attack to remain calm — while saying he has already forgiven his teen attacker, even calling the suspected terrorist his “son.”
In his first public message since the attack, Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel spoke from his hospital bed to address those taking to the streets of Sydney following the horrifying caught-on-camera attack that cops have called “a terrorist incident.” “The Lord Jesus never taught us to fight. The Lord Jesus never taught us to retaliate,” Emmanuel said in a recorded message released by the Wakeley’s Christ The Good Shepherd Church early Thursday.
