Rising As A King?

Okay. Blogs are places where you can rant about things that matter to you, and people can read it if they want to, right?
Consider yourself warned.
First, I will show you the catalyst for my rantings.

To give the shortened version, a man saying that he was from Israel (Ralph Messer) brings a supposedly priceless scroll. After displaying the scroll, he then presents it to Bishop Eddie Long, he then drapes him in a tallit (Prayer Shawl) and has four men lift him up in a chair. He then proceeds to proclaim him as a king; and a spotlight centers on Bishop Long as the people sing praises.
Well.
Where do I begin?
I sat watching this entire video in dumbfounded silence. When it ended, what I wanted to say is not something that I can share. There are SO MANY things wrong with this. I'm going to limit my comments, otherwise we'd be here for awhile.
How do you as a Christian see this going on and not feel in your spirit that something is wrong with this? No wonder people think that Christians are nuts! They're only exposed to incidents like this, incidents that are on television and Youtube that make us look absolutely off of our rockers.
NO MAN should be exalted above God. Although the church was singing a song to God, it's interesting to notice that they were singing this song while the Bishop was illuminated by a spotlight.
Something similar to this happened in the Bible, you know. In Acts 12:20-23, an account is given of King Herod's death. The people hailed him as a god; he didn't say anything against this, so God struck him down. 
While the title given is different, the premise is the same. Both the titles of "god" and "king" are titles that, within the church, should ONLY be given to God. Therefore a man being given the title of King within the church is very wrong. And I've not seen anything stating that Bishop Long has denied his new found "Kingship."
In hearing some of the discussion about this incident, I heard it stated that if the scroll was supposedly "Priceless", then why were they handling it without gloves? Why wasn't it in a vault somewhere being preserved as a piece of Jewish history? If it really was so priceless, why are you wrapping it around someone? And why are you giving it to someone as a gift? Might as well just give him the Dead Sea Scrolls, while you're at it!
Ralph Messer claimed that, on behalf of all of Israel, he was giving the scroll to the Bishop. Please, please explain to me where he gets that authority? 
On researching this topic, I found an interesting blog that states that Ralph Messer isn't even Jewish. (Below)

Need I say more?
I am very pleased as a Christian to hear that so many people disagree with this. It reminds me that there is, in fact, hope for us. If people can realize that this is wrong, it shows that people have been reading their Bibles, praying, and listening to the Holy Spirit within them.
So there it is. Just a small little rant. Look up some of the other things related to this incident; it's quite interesting.
I leave you with a beautiful quote from Robert Browning:

"All service ranks the same with God — With God, whose puppets, best and worst, Are we: there is no last nor first."
