Farrakhan Claims God Sent Recent Winter Storm 'Calamities' to Punish His Critics -- And Here's His Bizarre Logic

The Minister Louis Farrakhan's official news outlet, Final Call, recently released a dramatic video claiming that a "prophetic warning" from the Nation of Islam (NOI) leader foresaw Winter Storm Nemo and a series of tornadoes that raged earlier this month. These weather patterns -- referred to by Final Call as "nature's fury" -- are purportedly evidence of God's defense of Farrakhan as well as his wrath upon humanity.

The faith leader is using the storms and his alleged predictions to urge people to heed his warnings about Allah's allegedly destructive plans for America. On Feb. 2, in the fourth installment of his 52-week sermon series, "The Time and What Must Be Done," Farrakhan warned that God was going to punish his critics.

In particular, he named snow, tornadoes and floods as tools that the Lord would soon be using and promised that these events would unfold shortly after he issued his video message. In a special clip that followed this sermon, Farrakhan used news reports about the storms and dramatic music in an effort to convince viewers that the NOI leader's warnings came to fruition just five days after his initial claims about God's plans.

While it's clear that the faith leader believes that he predicted snow and tornadoes and that these storms were sent by God in his defense, many would argue that the winter months are prone to unpredictable and dangerous weather.

Had Farrakhan issued his "prophetic warning" in the summer and a snowstorm had followed, it's likely he would have had a few more ears.

"You are not going to let us know, so God is going to contend with you. I don't think you can win that one, for the scripture says he has treasured up snow in the North for that great day of battle," the faith leader warned in his Feb. 2 message. "You haven't seen snow like you're going to see it. You can't fight God and win. He turns nature against you and he's doing that as we speak."

In the cryptic warning, Farrakhan also told viewers that God would soon increase calamities in an effort to punish those who have spoken out against the faith leader.

"When you plan against me, the plan is already against you and to prove it he's going to increase the calamities shortly after you hear this message," he continued.

At the end of the video, after Farrakhan attempted to make the point that he is God's messenger and that the Lord is willing to punish society in his defense. Text on the screen read, "Now will you listen?"

This is the latest in a stream of bizarre messages coming from the controversial faith leader. Recently he accused the U.S. government of trying to kill billions, while also claiming that the Second Amendment doesn't mean that the American public should be "armed to the teeth."
