HOBART, Ind. -- Kevin Russell found out it's not easy trying to cash a check from God.

The 21-year-old man was arrested Monday after he tried to cash a check for $50,000 at the Chase Bank in Hobart that was signed "King Savior, King of Kings, Lord of Lords, Servant," Hobart police Detective Jeff White said.

Russell was charged with one count attempted check fraud and one count intimidation, both felonies, and one count resisting law enforcement, a misdemeanor. He could face prison time

What if the guy painted God's house? And this guy was just trying to cash his work cheque!

Ahh that would make a great Family Guy sceane.

Pennies from heaven

Sorry but I just had to say that. Anyway, this reminds me of a woman from my area that was arrested a few years ago when she tried to pay for something at WalMart with a $200 bill. Some people are a few sandwhiches short of a picknick.

Can anyone prove that God didn't write the check?

If not, then he's on the same grounds as the established religions, in which case all charges need to be dropped.

Wouldn't it be hilarious if it turns out one of his buddies actually legally changed their name to "King Savior, King of Kings, Lord of Lords, Servant" and wrote him a check?

Well, its funny, but there's a Quantum Prayer with classes that suggest you "write yourself" a check for 50,000$ ( not to be cashed, of course, until and IF you get the 50G's.
The man just didnt understand.

Its like "swallow by mouth" instructions. at the pharmacy.

probably not, but from the way the article sounds...

Police were called to the bank after Russell tried to cash the check, which was written on an invalid Bank One check with no imprint

clearly illegal.

I want to become religious again.


If God could write out cheques... then I would've prayed 24/7.

"God... please send me another $1 million, I am so close to buying a new Ferrari Enzo, for the church I built with the cheques you sent me... Oh before I forget... can you send another $200k, I need to pay so that I can go on vacation-- I mean go on missionary tour and spread the Word. For thine is the kingdom full of money. Amen."

Poor guy... They maybe should drop charges... with a warning of course.

"The Lord giveth... and the Lord taketh away"

Sorry for the one line post, I got nothing

God giveth $1 mil. IRS taketh half...
