The Church is emasculating men

Good article on the emasculating of men in the Church. He points out:

“All too often the pastoral “role model” in evangelical circles mirrors that “Simpson’s” character, the Rev. Love Joy. Our pastors are either quaint, odd, harmless pushovers, or they are slick metrosexual types who can cry at the drop of a dime – literally – but have absolutely no courage to stand up against real evil or teach the unequivocal truth with authority.

They’ve suppressed godly male assertiveness, opting instead to “be nice.” They have abdicated their calling to “speak the truth” in the interest of political correctness. And they have decided that manipulating people with emotional self-help books and anecdotal sermonizing is better for the bottom line than training and teaching the men in their congregations to be leaders and warriors for Christ.

Rick Warren from Nation Cathedrel says that Evangelicals should unite with dead mainline churches

Rick Warren is the top guru in the most accepted movement in the evangelical churches – The purpose driven movement. Rick Warren never ceases to amaze me by what comes out of his mouth and where he will go to speak. In this case, Rick Warren speaks from a well known apostate Church but he does not give the gospel of Jesus Christ to them he tells these apostates that Evangelicals should unite with mainline churches without regard to their apostate doctrines.

Ever since I read the Purpose Driven Life and started following what Rick Warren has been preaching I have become increasingly concerned about this man.… continue reading

“Christian” politicians who use Christianity to their advantage

Like so many Liberals they claim a relationship with Jesus but do not do what He says. If a person cannot discern abominations like Abortion and homosexual practices and understand what harm these abominations bring to society it is because He or She has no biblical understanding.Those who have no understanding of what God said in the scriptures are either immature Christians or liars using Christianity for their advantage. No one in any of those categories should be leaders in the Church or leaders of a Nation that fears God.

Obama might say the right words when he stands before naive Christians but his stands are contrary to what He claims to believe.… continue reading

Fresh Fire guru interviews Jesus in heaven

Wow! look at this. This guy claims to do interviews in heaven with his own version of Jesus. These Fresh Fire people need to be totally roasted by Flamethrower. Seriously why do these people have a following and why are they on Christian TV? I think some in Christianity are candidates for a padded  room.

For three days this week, Todd Bentley of Fresh Fire Ministries (freshfire.ca) has been interviewed on a well known Canadian Christian T.V. program called It’s a New Day. As I watched the last day, on their website (Thursday, January 24th, Todd Bentley Testimony – part 3 of 3), I thought, hmmmm…this sounds familiar.

Can a pagan practice like Yoga be “Christianized?

If you think that Yoga is just an exercise you need to read this article. It is a shame that Christian Churches are offering classes in this Eastern pagan occult practice.

Is yoga just a way of
reducing stress or is there more to it than that? I mean, everyone’s doing it so
it has to be a good thing…right? The short answer is that there’s more to yoga
than meets the eye. So bear with me as I explain the reasons practicing yoga
“stretches traditional Christian boundaries” and why Christians should avoid
yoga and seek other alternatives.

Have certain denominations become end time whores?

Joseph Farah believes Paul had some Protestant denominations like the Methodists, Presbyterian Church USA and The United Church of Christ in mind in his warnings of how ungodly many would become in the last days. Joseph says that they have become whores and that Christian should get out of them and stop supporting them.For the domination as a whole I agree that they have become whores with the world. I think there are still some good churches within those denominations but they should either get out of the denomination they are in, or Christians in these congregations should depart from these churches so that they do not take part in the sins of the denomination.… continue reading

Pagan/Christian hybrid emerging Pentecostal churches

I have noticed in my own experience that Pentecostals too often cross the line. Here is a story of one Pentecostal pastor that crossed the line and took his whole church with him. Come to think if it, I also noticed that many Pentecostals worship their pastor and will follow him anywhere no matter how unbiblical he becomes. Thus, unless there is some way of weeding out these wolves in sheep’s clothing many sheeple will soon be drinking the kool-aid.

I am not picking on Pentecostals. There are just as many godly Pentecostals as their are godly non Pentecostal believers. However, the display of mystical gifts often attracts unstable people.… continue reading

Is the US blessing Israel by her Middle East foreign policy?

I do not agree with everything Chuck Baldwin says in this article but he does make some perspectives that are worth thinking about.

Is the US really a blessing to Israel? He does not think so. From Jimmy Carter to George Bush I would have to say we have not taken positions that bless Israel.

Nonetheless, if we did nothing in the Middle East like Baldwin and Ron Paul suggest and we let Israel militarily take care of her own problems the world would already have united to fight against Israel. So if the US took no action in the Middle East that would not be a blessing to Israel either.… continue reading

The Truth War is published

Jan Markell in this article informs us of John MacArthur’s book, “The Truth War”. Truth is being sacrificed on the altar in many Christian churches today in order to be relevant and popular.

That reminds me of a passage in Timothy:

2Ti 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

Sustainable development is global governance

Sustainable Development is where the elite are moving the world and they are using imaginary environmental problems to get us there. It is a mixture of socialism and fascism. It will lead to the Beast system of the Antichrist where everyone and everything will be under global governance

clipped from http://www.christianworldviewnetwork.com/article.php/2969/Tom_DeWeese

Under Sustainable Development there can be no limited government, as advocated by our Founding Fathers, because, we are told, the real or perceived environmental crisis is too great. Maurice Strong, Chairman of the 1992 UN Earth Summit said: “A shift is necessary toward lifestyles less geared to environmentally-damaging consumption patterns.

How bad could the economic downturn get?

Things don’t always turn out the way some people think. Nevertheless, here is one assessment of the economy and the housing market that should make people stand up and take notice.

I think there are two many unknowns to make any accurate predictions of what is going to happen in the next months and years but it could get real ugly if the power brokers cannot control the situation.

clipped from www.dissidentvoice.org
Many experts are now predicting that home prices will dip 30% by the end of
2008. That means that nearly 20 million homeowners will be “upside-down”, that
is, they will owe more on their mortgage than the current value of the house.

Dr Norman Geisler reviews Hank Hanegraff’s Apocalypse Code

Hank Hanegraff’s wrote a book called “Apocalypse Code”. Dr Norman Geisler does a brilliant scholarly book review and rebuttal of Hanegraff’s book that attacks premillennial dispensational theology. Here is just a small sample of Dr Geisler’s summery.

This brings me to my chief concern about The Code–it is based on an allegorical method of interpreting prophetic Scripture that, if applied to other teachings of Scripture, would undermine the salvation essentials of the Christian Faith. Let me illustrate the extent to which The Apocalypse Code goes in allegorizing away the literal truth of Scripture from above cited texts. It transforms –

  • The plain meaning of the Bible into a so-called “deeper” meaning
  • Literal promises into spiritual ones
  • Unconditional promises into conditional ones
  • Jewish tribes into Gentiles
  • A thousand years into eternity
  • A literal resurrection into a spiritual one
  • Land Promises for National Israel into spiritual life in Christ
  • A literal mark of the Beast into a mere symbol of identity with him
  • Physical clouds into mere symbols of judgment
  • A literal earthly throne of David into a heavenly reign of Christ
  • Two literal witnesses into literary representatives of the Law and Prophets
  • Cosmic judgment into the destruction of a small city (Jerusalem)

All of this Hank is fond of calling “Reading the Bible for all it is worth.”

SPIRITUAL SUGAR DIABETES

Dave Daubenmire puts his finger on the problem in today’s Churches. They have Christian versions of Oprah and Dr. Phil preaching in the pulpit and filling bookstores with sugar coated books. They sell Christians junk food.  How else do you explain what we see them buying for their consumption? Now many Christians keep craving more sugar until it puts them into a diabetic coma.

I expect this type of “preaching” from Dr. Phil, or Oprah, or a myriad of “pychobabalists” who dot the world of plasma TV’s. But it is tragic that the best selling Christian books in America today happen to be of this ilk.

Religious Jews say Bush and Olmert bringing Holocaust upon us

Make sure the Messiah you accept is the Messiah and not the Antichrist.

200 right-wing activists gather in Jerusalem to protest US president’s visit, one detained. ‘How would the American public react if Bush were to say after his inauguration that the US must cede Seattle and Manhattan?’ SOS Israel head asks. ‘A traitor,’ demonstrators shout back

Wolpe continued to say that “only the coming of the messiah can save us, not the High Court (of Justice), which is collaborating with the Arabs.”

Security for Israel would have to be guaranteed for peace

Tony Blair says that security for Israel will have to be guaranteed for peace in the Middle East.

We know that this security for Israel must take place before Ezekiel 38 and 39 can be fulfilled. It now looks like this security will soon come. Tony Blair is likely to become the first President of the EU under the new EU treaty and he could see to it that the EU guarantees Israel’s security. The US might do it at first but I think the US will have too many of its own problems in the near future and the EU will take over this role.… continue reading

Why Obama’s Muslim background Matters

Those are fair points to bring up because they will be brought up. If Obama claims to practice Christianity he will be on the radials Islam hit list. If he embraces Islam he will sell out on Israel and could not take decisive action in the war on Islamic extremism anywhere in the world.

In Actuality I think Obama is either an atheist or believes in Universalism. He himself says that he is Universalistic, meaning that he would think that all paths ultimately led to God. However, I believe by his moral positions that he is totally secular and only uses religion for his own end.… continue reading

Obama supports every pro choice abortion legislation

You would think that people would learn about his beliefs his voting record and what he plans to do if elected President before they just vote for someone with a winning smile. He will bring in deadly and costly social activism.

“Senator Obama doesn’t care that abortion has obliterated the rights of more
than 15 million black children since 1973,” Gardner said in a statement. “He
doesn’t care that abortion is the No. 1 killer of African-Americans surpassing
deaths caused by accidents, heart disease, stroke, crimes, HIV-AIDS and all
other deaths – combined!

“He won’t make one of his powerful speeches decrying the injustice of
abortion providers as they plant killing centers firmly in black communities –
making it easier to kill black children.

Is the Singularity and the Rapture the same event?

I have made the conjecture that the mark of the Beast may have something to do with making man not quite human and that people will take the mark as some great evolutionary step forward for mankind. God says that those who take the mark can no longer be saved. This could be because the Kinsman Redeemer came only to save the Adamic race. If people become transhuman they will no longer qualify.

I do not hear about many buying into the theory that the singularity and the Rapture are the same events. Nevertheless, the article makes some good points and it is thought provoking.… continue reading

The true believers of global warming should catch on fire

Pretty good Pat.,They need to start right now and move into 500 sq-ft houses and drive bikes. They are the ones that believe the world is doomed not us. So why don’t they all get started showing us unbelievers the way. Al gore should start mass producing mini houses for them with the hundred million he made preaching. He could help start the next world depression. That would slow CO2 down! Of course hell or the earth will freeze over before these “true believers” actually lead by their own example to try to cool the earth.

The time for talk is over.

Pastor attempts to stop the slaughter of Blacks

Here is  one voice of reason doing some good work in the black community but notice that he is also opposed by people with Reverend in their title.

Hoye has bigger plans, hoping to eventually open chapters of Issues4Life across the country as a way to create a “one-stop shopping place” where black leaders, particularly pastors, will be able to get the information they need to teach others about the problem.

“We want to create opportunities to dialogue on issues concerning life, and abortion is the leading cause of death in the African American community,” Hoye said. “It is a moral issue as far as the church is concerned, and we want to strengthen the African American leadership.
