It's hard to say because you don't explain the context. But in general, the most natural would be:

I don't want to see any more posts claiming that Covid-19 is a punishment from God. :ok:

However, IF you are for example a webmaster and responsible for forum post submissions, then it might be appropriate to say:

I don't want to see any more posts submitted claiming that Covid-19 is a punishment from God. :ok:

It’s not English.

We say “punishment from God”.
