Shame has died so what hope is there?

Posted on by Don

Everyone knows what Dave said in this article is true. It is a shame that there is no shame anymore and unless people can again be ashamed of their wickedness there is no hope either.

Dave Daubenmire — The Death of Shame

here is the tragic part. We know that they lie, yet we still consider them qualified for public service. Pastors endorse them, pundits justify their behavior, and Christians vote for the “lesser of the evils.” “It’s only politics” (Is that John Dewey I hear?) as they try to convince us that lying is no longer a big deal. Let me ask you something.

Demographics makes it clear that the harvest of the earth draws near

Posted on by Don

At the rate the birth rate is falling the young adult population of the earth will peak in two decades. When the young mature crop in the field is at its peak is when the harvest will come. This is another sure sign that we are living very near the time when the angels will be told to harvest the wheat of the earth.

Obama believes in salvation by your own works

Posted on by Don

Obama believes a person who led a moral life will go to heaven apart from accepting Jesus as Lord. This is clearly not Christian teaching so I do not know why some still insist that Obama is Christian. What Obama supports proves that he follows the teachings of Karl Marx and his religious views prove that he believes in Universalism.

If he really wanted to apply the teaching of Jesus in a concrete way he would tell people the true gospel. That salvation comes from what Jesus did period, and no ones good works will save them. Good works on earth comes from the spiritual new heart of Christians not from increasingly fascist worldly government oversight.… continue reading

Give your cash to TBN hucksters so God can bless you?

Posted on by Don

I love Steve Camp’s reasoning here.

Is God Short of Cash?: The Myth of the Prosperity Gospel – CWN

I was on a famous Christian TV show several years ago before their demise. During a ‘commercial’ break, the host of the program told me if I would give $100 to his ministry the Lord would give me back $1,000… I asked him politely, “Sir, where does it say stupid written on me?” He was a bit shocked and asked me, “don’t you believe that the Lord will bless you by giving your money to our ministry?” I told him, “No way”; and that furthermore he didn’t even believe such a thing.

Parsley on everything?

Posted on by Don

Since John McCain kissed up to Parsley on everything even though Ron Parsley is one of the worst Word Faith heretics in existence. I thought I would link to a good article on the nonsense that Parsley preaches to his huge Church and TV audience.

I would not want anyone to think that McCain actually linked with true Christian conservatives by speaking at World Harvest Church in Ohio. The most that McCain would find there is Christian garnish that goes along with the Parsley. Not that McCain knows the difference between Christian teaching and tickle the ears garnish spreading of Word Faith teaching.… continue reading

Wright taught hatred toward whites, He is not Christian.

Posted on by Don

Obama in his speech twisted words for his own advantage to making the same old “blame whitey” claims for his perceived race problems in the U.S.

As if whitey forced many blacks to become amoral and destructive? Could it be that the real motivators for black amorality and hatred is the type of churches leaders that many choose to go listen to and be brainwashed? Churches led by evil people like Mr.Wright (no Rev. deserved) that teach hate, Marxism, and that take anti American and anti biblical viewpoints on every issue.  These are churches that are really racists Marxist cults. They do not preach a biblical Jesus Christ at all.… continue reading

Don’t teach tithing, celebrate free will giving in your church.

Posted on by Don

I wrote a detailed article on tithing. So I am not going to rehash that here but just let me say the facts prove that most Christians do not tithe. The majority do not even tithe in tithing churches. And the tithe these churches claim is a biblical mandate is not the biblical OT triple tithe anyway.

Christians need to celebrate free will giving because God loves a cheerful giver. Also remember that many people are specially gifted to give. If Pastors would express the real needs they have in the church to the membership instead of trying to put all under a tithing bondage.… continue reading

Rev. Wright and his disciple Obama

Posted on by Don

It should be pretty obvious that Obama and his wife went to that racist church for twenty years because they agreed with what was being taught there. People who do not agree with the doctrine of a church find a different church to attend. The fact that Rev. Wright is so much a part of Obama’s life speaks wonders about Obama.

If you can get past the “change” and “yes we can” slogans what Obama offers the nation is nothing but a Christianized version of Marxism. It is the same stuff that his pastor taught.

I simply cannot believe that people in the U.S.… continue reading

Light the log and you will turn up the temperature in your church

Posted on by Don

What Coach Daubenmire says here may not be exactly what I would tell you to do but I agree with enough of it to offer his expertise.

Dave Daubenmire — Light a Fire Under Your Pastor

I could share with you copies of emails that I received, but I don’t want to take up the space. Suffice it to say that nearly all of them were hungry for Biblical leadership.Here is a stern warning to pastors. Write it off if you like. The folks in the pew are greatly dissatisfied. I hear it when I speak in churches and I hear it every time I write a commentary.

Forgotten kids or a postmodern generation who reject Jesus because they love their sins?

Posted on by Don

Jan Markell adequately answered why the true Church should be looking forward to the coming of Jesus and is not worrying about the gloom and doom that the world will soon experience. So I won’t rehash that. I just want to add one point. The woman said that “we have a whole generation of forgotten kids – forgotten by the church so they can have their end time meetings.”

Does this woman even go to church? There are no end time meetings in any church I know. Kids have not been forgotten by the Church in any case. Most kids will simply not attend church if their parents don’t make them attend.… continue reading

Southern Baptist leadership cooling down for Jesus

Posted on by Don

I talked about this yesterday on my other Blog. Seems that Joe Farrah also sees the lack of discernment coming from the Southern Baptist Convention leadership on the issue of global warming. I think the leadership gets caught up into these worldly viewpoints because they are a little to eager to hobnob with elite worldly people and embrace the philosophy’s of men so that they can fit into the fallen world system. In other words they are carnal.

Whither the Southern Baptists?

What is it about major Christian denominations that leads them, inevitably and inexorably, into error?What is it about the world that seduces Christian institutions to forsake the Bible in favor of pop politics and junk science?

This elevator is going down

Posted on by Don

Here is a very good summery of the latest going on with many of the “Christian” leaders that seem to be running their own heavenly elevator. Next stop the bottom floor.

clipped from www.letusreason.org
We welcome new leaders and recognize them for their service to Christ. Today
there are many new leaders, but there is a shortage of biblically well trained
leaders who are aware of the issues and have answers to them. There are just as
many new leaders serving an agenda, themselves and money than Christ.
Postmodernism, pluralism, relativism, interfaith and occult ideas and practices
have reached so deep into the church that we can’t seem to see through the murky
waters we are now swimming in.

Government forced Christian aid.

Posted on by Don

Should the government make people do what God’s children should be doing out of their own good heart?

When government takes from those in the world who have, to give to others it fosters rebellion on one end and slothfulness on the other. In addition, government uses the redistribution of wealth to further its own worldly social agendas instead of the heavenly agenda that free will charity would bring.

Many of the problems in the world are because of blatant sin choices that people have made and that government often enables or even promotes. Treating  sin symptom problems when government helps spread the disease is an exercise in futility.… continue reading

Red letters from their spirit guide.

Posted on by Don

They say they put special emphasis on the Red letters because that is what Jesus was reported to have said in contrast to other scriptures that in their doubtful minds are more subjective. Yet, there is enough in Red Letters to destroy their Red Letter arguments. So  they go further and selectively choose which Red Letters they will use for their heretical arguments and which they will discard because it does not fit their view.

It is not a mystery why they do this. They want a Jesus that fits the Jesus they contemplated in their own mind. A Jesus who is their buddy or spirit guide.… continue reading

The pulpits are silent except when pulpit puppets preach the national feel good gospel.

Posted on by Don

Coach Dave Daubenmire spells out the problem and most of the pulpits will remain silent. We could also insert the word Christians in place of pulpits.

Dave Daubenmire — …and the Pulpits Are Silent

Public schools are destroying the faith of Christian children and the pulpits are silent.
Legislation is introduced to remove the rights of parents and the pulpits are silent.
Children are taught they came from apes and the pulpits are silent.
Millions of children are “medicated” to control their behavior and the pulpits are silent.
Gambling is promoted to pay for schools and the pulpit is silent.
Precious babies are being murdered in the womb and the pulpits are silent.

Red’s in sheep’s clothing

Posted on by Don

You will be hearing a lot more about Red Letter Christians so you ought to know what they believe. Essentially they are Marxists who find some red letters in the Bible to enforce how red they are. Many are people in the postmodern Emerging Church Movement.

The reason why they identify with Christianity is because they find some things taken out of context in the Bible that enforces their red philosophy. For example, they find a millennial worldly utopia in the Bible but ignore the scriptures that says there first has to be a physical return of Jesus to deal with the evil people on the earth.… continue reading

The postmodern movement moves to the past to relearn traditions of men and old doctrines of demons

Posted on by Don

I think much of the postmodern movement are made up of those who are just too damn lazy to study the Bible. It is so much easier for them to learn to contemplate their navel until “divine” revelation pops into their head. The leaders of this movement are quite different and deceptive, they know exactly where they are taking this group. They are the wolves in sheep’s clothing that Paul warned us about. If they do not qualify I would like to know who does?

If you notice it is not just happening in Christianity the old pagan practices spouted by media stars are also coming back to the future to the world in brand new wrappers.… continue reading

If the Bell is warped it will not ring true.

Posted on by Don

Ken Silva asks some fair questions in this article about the message you are hearing from Ron bell and others.

ROB BELL AND NEW AGE GURU MARIANNE WILLIAMSON – CWN

Below here at Apprising Ministries you will see beyond a shadow of a doubt that emerging church pastor Rob Bell agrees with New Age priestess Marianne Williamson concerning the nature of man. The question that needs to be asked is: What kind of a minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ could agree with the lie from the pit of Hell you’ll see within? But it is this kind of lunacy in the Lord that we are getting leaders in the Emergent Church like the Elvis of Emergent Rob Bell.

A model for blasphemy

You be the judge.

BLASPHEMOUS: HOW TERRIBLY SAD WHEN OUR PRECIOUS LORD JESUS CHRIST IS TREATED AS THE PUNCH-LINE TO ONES SICK JOKE

May I encourage you to be a Berean today. Examine its claims with the Word of God and then let me know your thoughts. And be forewarned: the way Mark refers to the Lord Jesus Christ is blasphemous; the way he wrests Scripture is unnerving; and the way he views the text of Song of Solomon is pornographic.

The departure of Christians from mainline churches will be followed by Christians in the Emergent Churches

Posted on by Don

The author warns that the mainline churches declined because they departed from the scripture. He says the emergent church movement is following in their footsteps and Christians will depart. I think the difference will be that the Emergent Churches will continue to grow but not with Christians, with New Spirituality pagans calling themselves Christians.

The New Mainline – CWN

Even a peripheral examination of the current fads and trends within Evangelicalism show a shocking trend. Those were have been characterized by a strict adherence to the authority of scripture are starting to walk in the footsteps of their mainline counterparts. The Emergent Church that seems to gain strength daily is characterized, to a great extent, by the same propensities as those who led mainline Protestantism into oblivion.
