Pulpit Prosperity Preachers (PPP) by myworkforchrist: 5:26pm On Nov 17, 2015 |
They cry out with deceit and make dance like the world The gullible falls prey easily, led to the abattoir They believe an heaven on earth before God’s coming They have no idea this will be their only heaven Somebody give Jesus a wiper, they scream Your father in heaven is rich, so you should be rich, they say The poor in spirit, they heavily mock They know not that they have lost it Wake up, you blind Who told you heavenly race is milk and honey on earth You accumulate wealth on earth Not knowing that, that wealth is your talent And the master will ask you on the final day how you used it How did you use your talent, the Master will ask Did you use it to replenish the selfish man on the pulpit Or do you use it to bring hope to the poor and widows Thereby leading them to Christ They quickly forget what Jesus said about the rich man entrance One likened to the entrance of a camel into the eye of a needle Do you say Lord Jesus is a liar Or do you twist the saying as being idiomatic You can’t serve two masters Don’t let prosperity preachers deceive you Study to show thyself approved For the HolySpirit is the best teacher I sum up with Matthew 19:16-30 Darling Jesus wants your ALL Quit philosophical and men’s reasoning Keep quiet, Pick your cross and Follow Christ Bible References Matthew 19:16-30 Matthew 6: 24 2 Timothy 2:15 Hebrew 12:1 Matthew 7:14 Matthew 25:14-30 Note: It is unfortunate that I can't make new topic post because of restriction Nairaland placed on my user ID, so I have resolved to modify previous post to have new ones For all post, you can visit myworkforchrist.

Aptly called Pulpit Pimps |
Re: Pulpit Prosperity Preachers (PPP) by plaetton: 5:58pm On Nov 18, 2015 |
vooks: It's Pulpit Pimps And Bling Bling Theology. Gees , I wonder why there is so much fraud associated religion and faith ? ![]() Hhhhmm! Could it be because it comes from the most primitive, the most irrational and the most selfish parts of the human psyche ? |
Re: Pulpit Prosperity Preachers (PPP) by vooks: 6:38pm On Nov 18, 2015 |
plaetton: Fraud is human because we are intuitively selfish and not a product of religion. As an amateur septic(sic),why would fraud bother you? What is your moral compass? Guesswork? |
Re: Pulpit Prosperity Preachers (PPP) by plaetton: 7:33pm On Nov 18, 2015 |
vooks: Well, fraud bothers me because when one person is defrauded, I am also defrauded. As for my moral compass, that's easy. You see, I continously subdue the primitive aspects of my human psyche, the primordial nature, the irrational, fearful, and ironically, the religious. Higher reason is my moral compass. |

plaetton: lool vooks murdered you with this : Fraud is human because we are intuitively selfish and not a product of religion You tried to appear not thrown off while apparently you were , and its very obvious . "Well " which you began your sentence with &..."that's easy" before you stated your moral compass , proved so . You've always maintained that Christianity was founded on fraud and pastors are fraudulent ![]() 2 Likes |

plaetton:What determines what to suppress/subdue? What criteria do you employ? |
Re: Pulpit Prosperity Preachers (PPP) by plaetton: 7:57pm On Nov 18, 2015 |
vooks: Again, that is easy. Whatever promotes social harmony and social cohesion is always more preferable than what doesn't. |
Re: Pulpit Prosperity Preachers (PPP) by vooks: 7:58pm On Nov 18, 2015 |
plaetton: WHY is social cohesion 'always more preferable'? |
Re: Pulpit Prosperity Preachers (PPP) by vooks: 7:59pm On Nov 18, 2015 |
plaetton the Amateur septic(sic), You also need to demonstrate 'higher reasoning'. Take death. Why is it that there is so much death among the religious? Duh, NUMBERS! It goes without saying that if most are religious then most deaths will be registered among them |

KingEbukasBlog: Your problem, dear young man, is your tendency to half-think. Seriously. The fact that I mentioned " parts of the human psyche" in my post should have made it obvious, I'm case you didn't know, that a human mind , the human psyche consists of two dynamic and opposite hemispheres. One is older, from an evolutionary point of view, more primitive, irrational, fearful. This part likes to preserve the status quo. This is also the seat of religion. The other, more recently evolved ophthalmic region is the seat of reason, that constantly challenges and tries to overide the primitive impulses. So, your level of humaness is directly corrolated with whichever region of your brain dominates. Because religion comes from the limbic , more primitive part of the brain, religious people tend to be more irrational, fearful, selfish ,greedy and more fraudulent. Simple science. |

Re: Pulpit Prosperity Preachers (PPP) by plaetton: 8:18pm On Nov 18, 2015 |
vooks: Another half-thinker. Duuhhhhh! Religion is not a vocation. Religion puts itself on high moral pedestals. Religion pretentiously portrays itself on lofty moral ideals. Therefore, statistically, religious sheeple are not supposed to register on the moral radar for fraud or any immoral acts. Duuhhhhh! ![]() 1 Like |

plaetton the Amateur Septic(sic), Atheists are congenial hypocrites. Here is why; 1. Atheists are not necessarily immoral, in fact some of the best Negroes with the kindest heart I have known are serial staunch atheists 2. Atheism is sort of amoral in that it offers zero basis or rationale for OBJECTIVE morality True atheists openly admit there is no LOGICAL BASIS for purpose,meaning or morality and they readily adopt a philosophy of MEANINGLESSNESS. Hypocritical atheists (and they are the bulk) subscribe to morality without any reason. This is where our amateur septic(sic) plaetton falls with his theory of 'higher reason' precipitating aggressive pursuit of 'whatever promotes social harmony' because it is 'more preferable' 1 Like 1 Share |

plaetton: Religion puts itself on high moral pedestals.Dont flatter yourself Anyone can be lackadaisical towards his work , that does not automatically translate to the work being boring Anyone can pose as a pastor , priest to engage in fraud , but does that automatically mean the Religion is about defrauding people ? Clearly Christianity frowns as such vice as fraud . You know this . |

plaetton the Septic(sic) slithers away with his tail between his legs. Repeat; the epitome of hypocrisy is subscribing to morality within an amoral system without any logical basis |
