Truvelisback:He's ashamed of his faith, he wants everyone else to do the same so the mention of a group having something unique hurts his feelings so bad because he has publicly declared that God is no more in any religious gathering and he worships his own God alone. To him all religious gatherings are useless, so hearing that JWs have something unique really hurts his arrogance badly! ![]() |

Truvelisback:You asked of "Pastor's children" but JWs don't have Pastors so that's what makes your question became an issue with JWs because we believe in the Organizational arrangement, all our children are trained by the Organization so even when a man choose to leave JWs his adult children will say goodbye to him since they're not looking at him as their role model! ![]() |

MaxInDHouse:When i mean pastors, i mean leaders. However, u still don't get me and still deviating from what i am saying. In every church, there are still members who do not live a godly life or who lives opposite their belief or faith. No church is exempted, not even JW. |

Truvelisback: You're the one shifting the goal post! You should have said "people attending worship services but who don't want to live according to the tenets of the religion" that is a totally different case unlike children born in that religion! ![]() If that's what you meant then know that the first century Jewish Christians also had the same issue because the congregants are not perfect humans: Actually sexual immorality is reported among you, and such immorality as is not even found among the nations—of a man living with his father’s wife. 1Corinthians 5:1 The Christian in the Galatian congregation was actually sleeping with his step mother! That's why we often DISFELLOWSHIPED such ones when they're caught! 1Corinthians 5:13 May you have PEACE! ![]() |

SHALOM! Truvelisback: IN SPIRITUAL RELIGIONS, COINCIDENCE IS THE EXPECTED WAY OF LIFE. https://www.fox23.com/news/broken-arrow-drive-by-shooter-pleads-guilty/655734299/ OF COURSE, YOU COULD HAVE JUST READ THE NEWS. KENNETH ERWIN HAGIN was responsible for 95% of what I know about FAITH. The other half I learned from KENNETH COPELAND. If anyone's kids should turn out to be The Next Step in Christian Human Evolution, it should be the HAGIN children. That is not what happened with Kenneth Hagin's children. I did not do any actual research into the HAGIN family, but if any of them amounted to anything Spiritually, I should have heard about it. I stopped following them in the mid-1980s. KENNETH HAGIN Junior was Director of their RHEMA BIBLE TRAINING CENTER- but he was no Spiritual genius. Kenneth E. Hagin was the Apex of Trinitarian Full Gospel Pentecostal Christianity. He was responsible for most of what I knew about Christianity. By that time, he had died as many as three times, he had been to "Heaven" with "Jesus Christ," and received a special Healing Gift that Healed anyone who heard and believed his Testimony of going to Heaven with "Jesus." He went on to see "Jesus" as many as three more times. [See: I BELIEVE IN VISIONS, by Kenneth E. Hagin (1972).] HE WAS AN IDIOT. By 1985 I had determined that the rest of Christianity did not know what they were doing, but I did not know exactly what was wrong, because I could not conceive of the corruption in Christianity starting with the Original so-called "APOSTLES." It was relatively recently that I came into the Revelation of what was missing from Hebrew Religion, that necessitated THE GOSPEL. Since Christianity was not even aware of this problem, It was doomed to failure From The Beginning, because It enabled THE APOSTLES to deceive the Church, so as to retain dominance over other Christians, expecting to be "still on top" should Lord Yeshua return in their lifetimes, as they falsely believed he would- at first. There were at least 360 other Disciples Lord Yeshua approached after his Resurrection. Circumstantial Evidence suggests that the Twelve Disciples used the Sanhedrin Council to get rid of those who still wished to preach the Original Gospel, and handed over all copies of Lord Yeshua's Teachings to them, for destruction. IDOLIZATION OF THE APOSTLES AND PAUL IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY IN CREATING A COUNTERFEIT CHRISTIANITY. Once you believe that the Apostles were FOLLOWERS OF LORD YESHUA, you can NEVER succeed in The Gospel. THE TRUTH OF WHAT THE RELIGION OF YAHWEH GOD ENTAILS WAS REVEALED BY ONE DISCIPLE ALONE: THIS DISCIPLE HAD A MAJOR EPISTLE, WHICH WAS DISCARDED FROM THE WESTERN CANON. This was the Disciple who brought PAUL into the Church. The most important parts of his Document are: . THE EPISTLE OF BARNABAS 9:1-20. BUT why did Moses say "YE SHALL NOT EAT OF THE SWINE, NEITHER THE EAGLE NOR THE HAWK; NOR THE CROW; NOR ANY FISH THAT HAS NOT A SCALE UPON HIM?" answer, that in the spiritual sense, he comprehended three doctrines, that were to be gathered from thence. 2. Besides which he says to them in the Book of Deuteronomy, "AND I WILL GIVE MY STATUTES UNTO THIS PEOPLE." Wherefore it is not the Command of God that they should not eat these things; but Moses in The Spirit spake unto them. 3. Now the sow he forbade them to eat; meaning thus much; Thou shalt not join thyself to such persons as are like unto swine; who whilst they live in pleasure, forget their God; but when any want pinches them, then they know The LORD; as the sow when she is full knows not her master; but when she is hungry she makes a noise; and being again fed, is silent. 4. "NEITHER," says he, "SHALT THOU EAT THE EAGLE, NOR THE HAWK, NOR THE KITE, NOR THE CROW;" that is thou shalt not keep company with such kind of men as know not how by their labour and sweat to get themselves food: but injuriously ravish away the things of others; and watch how, to lay snares for them; when at the same time they appear to live in perfect innocence. 5. [So these birds alone seek not food for themselves, but] sitting idle seek how they may eat of the flesh others have provided; being destructive through their wickedness. 6. "NEITHER," says HE, "SHALT THOU EAT THE LAMPREY, NOR THE POLYPUS, NOR THE CUTTLE-FISH;" That is, thou shalt not be like such men, by using to converse with them; who are altogether wicked and adjudged to death. For so those Fishes are alone accursed, and wallow in the mire, nor swim as other fishes, but tumble in the dirt at the bottom of the deep. 7. "BUT" He adds, "NEITHER SHALT THOU EAT OF THE HARE." To what end?—To signify this to us; "THOU SHALT NOT BE AN ADULTERER; NOR LIKEN THYSELF TO SUCH PERSONS." For the Hare every year multiplies the places of its conception; and so many years as it lives, so many it has. [j]8. "NEITHER SHALT THOU EAT OF THE HYENA;"[/i] That is, again, be not an Adulterer, nor a corruptor of others; neither be like to such. And wherefore so? Because that creature every year changes its kind, and is sometimes male and sometimes female. 9. For which cause also he justly hated the Weasel; to the end that they should not be like such persons who with their mouths commit wickedness by reason of their uncleanness; nor join themselves with those impure women, who with their mouths commit wickedness. Because that animal conceives with its mouth. 10. Moses, therefore, speaking as concerning meats, delivered indeed three great precepts to them in the spiritual signification of those commands. But they according to the desires of the flesh, understood him as if he had only meant it of meats. 11. And therefore David took aright The Knowledge of His threefold Command, saying in like manner. 12. "BLESSED IS THE MAN THAT HATH NOT WALKED IN THE COUNSEL OF THE UNGODLY;" as the Fishes before mentioned in the bottom of the deep in Darkness. 13. "NOR STOOD IN THE WAY OF SINNERS," as they who seem to fear The LORD, but yet Sin, as the Sow. 14. "AND HATH NOT SAT IN THE SEAT OF THE SCORNERS;" as those Birds who sit and watch that they may devour. 15. Here you have The Law concerning meat perfectly set forth, and according to The True Knowledge of it. 16. "BUT," says Moses, "YE SHALL EAT ALL THAT DIVIDETH THE HOOF, AND CHEWETH THE CUD." Signifying thereby such an one as having taken his food, knows Him that nourisheth him; and resting upon Him, rejoiceth in Him. 17. And in this he spake well, having respect to The Commandment. What, therefore, is it that he says? —That we should hold fast to them that fear The Lord; with those who Meditate on The Command of the Word which they have received in their heart; with those that declare The Righteous Judgments of The LORD, and keep His Commandments; 18. In short, with those who know that to Meditate is a work of pleasure, and therefore exercise themselves in the Word of The LORD. 19. But why might they eat those that clave the hoof? —Because the Righteous liveth in this present World; but his expectation is fixed upon the other. See, Brethren, how admirably Moses commanded these things. 20. But how should we thus know all this, and understand it? We, therefore, understanding aright The Commandments, speak as The LORD would have us. Wherefore He has circumcised our ears and our hearts, that we might Know these Things. . EPISTLE OF BARNABAS 10:11-12. 11. And Moses again says about food, "AND EAT EVERY THING CLOVEN-FOOTED AND THAT DRAWETH UP [THE CUD.]" Why says he so ? Because when receiving nourishment it knows Him who nourishes it, and resting upon Him it seems to be made glad. He spake well, looking to the Commandment. What then does he mean? That we should join ourselves to those who fear the Lord, to those who meditate in their heart on the explanation of the Word which they have received, to those who preach the Judgments of the Lord and observe them, to those who know that Meditation is a Work of Gladness, and to those who ruminate on The Word of the Lord. And why the clovenfooted? Because the Just man both walks in this World, and also looks for the Holy Age. Look how well Moses made his Laws. 12. But how could they [the Jews] perceive or understand these things ? But we, rightly understanding the Commands, rightly preach as the Lord wished. For this purpose he circumcised our ears and hearts, that we might understand these things. THIS ONE DOCTRINE SHOULD HAVE REDEEMED WESTERN CHRISTIANITY- HAD THE EPISTLE OF BARNABAS BEEN INCLUDED IN THE WESTERN BIBLE. . GENESIS 1:26-28. 26. And God Said, "Let us make Man in Our Image, after Our Likeness: and let them have Dominion over the Fish of the Sea, and over the Fowl of the Air, and over the Cattle, and over all the Earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the Earth." 27. So God created Man in His Own Image, in The Image of God created He him; male and female created He them. 28. And God Blessed them, and God Said unto them, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the Earth, and subdue It: and have Dominion over the Fish of the Sea, and over the Fowl of the Air, and over every Living Thing that moveth upon the Earth." GOD CREATED MAN TO HAVE DOMINION OVER ALL THE EARTH AND ALL OF ITS CREATURES- THAT INCLUDES MANKINF OURSELVES. . JOB 28:28. 28. "And unto Man He Said, 'BEHOLD, THE FEAR OF THE LORD, THAT IS WISDOM; AND TO DEPART FROM EVIL, IS UNDERSTANDING.' " . PSALM 111:10. 10. The Fear of The LORD is The Beginning of Wisdom: a Good Understanding have all they that do His Commandments: His Praise endureth for ever. . PROVERBS 9:10. 10. The Fear of The LORD is The Beginning of Wisdom: and The Knowledge of The Holy is Understanding. . ISAIAH 55:7-9. 7. Let the Wicked forsake his Way, and the Unrighteous Man his Thoughts: and let him return unto The LORD, and He will have Mercy upon him; and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon. 8. "FOR MY THOUGHTS (ARE) NOT YOUR THOUGHTS, NEITHER ARE YOUR WAYS MY WAYS," saith The LORD. 9. "FOR (AS) THE HEAVENS ARE HIGHER THAN THE EARTH, SO ARE MY WAYS HIGHER THAN YOUR WAYS, AND MY THOUGHTS THAN YOUR THOUGHTS.' " . 2nd CHRONICLES 16:9. 9. "For The Eyes of The LORD run to and fro throughout the whole Earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is perfect toward Him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars.” . AMOS 3:3. 3. Can two walk together, except they be agreed?" . ZECHARIAH 4:10. 10. For who hath despised The Day of Small Things? For they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are The Eyes of The LORD, Which run to and fro through the whole Earth. TO EXERCISE THIS DOMINION INVOLVES THE ACQUISITION OF SEVEN SPIRITUAL IMPRINTS- THE LIVING COPIES OF GOD'S PERSONALITY, KNOWLEDGE, AND POWERS. His Spirits. A NORMAL HEBREW Y'SRAELITE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE TUTORED BY THEIR PARENTS IN RECEIVING THESE SEVEN ANOINTINGS, BETWEEN THE AGES OF THIRTEEN THROUGH TWENTY YEARS. [/i] Daughters who failed- without committing some Capital Sin- should have been sold into Slavery, or married-off. . EXODUS 21:1-11. "Now these are the Judgments Which thou shalt set before them. 2. "If thou buy an Hebrew servant, six years He shall serve: and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing. 3. "If he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself: if He were married, then his wife shall go out with him. 4. "If his master have given him a wife, and she have born him sons or daughters; the wife and her children shall be her master's, and He shall go out by himself. 5. "And if the servant shall plainly say, [i]"I LOVE MY MASTER, MY WIFE, AND MY CHILDREN; I WILL NOT GO OUT FREE:" 6. "Then his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the door or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an aul; and He shall serve him for ever. 7. "And if a man sell his daughter to be a maidservant, she shall not go out as the menservants do. 8. "If she please not her master, who hath betrothed her to himself, then shall he let her be redeemed: to sell her unto a strange nation he shall have no power, seeing He hath dealt deceitfully with her. 9. "And if He have betrothed her unto his son, he shall deal with her after the manner of daughters. 10. "If he take him another wife her food, her raiment, and her duty of marriage, shall he not diminish. 11. "And if he do not these three unto her, then shall she go out free without money." THIS WOULD BE A SECOND CHANCE TO SPEND SEVEN YEARS ACQUIRING THE SEVEN SPIRITS OF GOD. But the BOYS were given no such opportunity. . DEUTERONOMY 19:18-21. 18. If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and that, when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto them: 19. Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the Elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place; 20. And they shall say unto the Elders of his city, "THIS OUR SON IS STUBBORN AND REBELLIOUS, HE WILL NOT OBEY OUR VOICE; HE IS A GLUTTON, AND A DRUNKARD." 21. And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die: so shalt thou put Evil away from among you; and all Israel shall hear, and fear. WHAT MOSES WAS TALKING ABOUT HERE WAS FAILING TO ATTAIN SELF-CONTROL BY ACQUIRING THE SEVEN SPIRITS OF GOD. . EXODUS 20:1-7. AND God Spake all these Words, Saying, 2. "I am The LORD thy God, Which have brought thee out of The Land of Egypt, out of The House of Bondage. 3. "Thou shalt have no other gods before Me. 4. "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in Heaven above, or that is in the Earth beneath, or that is in the Water under the Earth. 5. "Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the Fathers upon the Children unto the Third and Fourth Generation of them that hate Me; 6. "And shewing Mercy unto thousands of them that love Me, and keep My Commandments. 7. "Thou shalt not take The Name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh His Name in vain." ALL HUMANS BORN ARE ACCOUNTABLE TO GOD FOR THE INIQUITIES OF THEIR PARENTS, THEIR GRANDPARENTS, AND THEIR GREAT-GRANDPARENTS. . NUMBERS 15:27-31. 27. "And if any man Sin through Ignorance, then he shall bring a She Goat of the first year for a Sin Offering. 28. "And the Priest shall make an Atonement for the Soul that Sinneth Ignorantly, when he Sinneth by Ignorance before The LORD, to make an Atonement for him, and it shall be forgiven him. 29. " Ye shall have one Law for him that Sinneth Ignorantly (both for) him that is born among the Children of Israel, and for the Stranger that sojourneth among them. 30. "But the Soul that doeth (ought) presumptuously, (whether he be) born in the land, or a Stranger, the same reproacheth The LORD; and that Soul shall be cut off from among his people. 31. "Because he hath despised The Word of The LORD, and hath broken His Commandment, that Soul shall utterly be cut off; his Iniquity (shall be) upon him." ACCIRDING TO THE LAW OF MOSES, ADULT SINNERS COULD NOT BE TOLERATED AS PART OF Y'SRAELITE SOCIETY WOMEN could be controlled by SlaveMasters or Husband's, but MEN could not, and should have to be executed. CHRISTIANS HAVE NEVER BEEN TAUGHT THIS LEVEL OF DISCIPLINE- THEREFORE CORRUPTION WAS INEVITABLE. . JOHN 15:1-8. "I AM The True Vine, and my Father is The Husbandman. 2. "Every branch in me that beareth not Fruit He taketh away: and every branch that beareth Fruit, He purgeth it, that it may bring forth more Fruit. 3. "Now ye are clean through the Word Which I have Spoken unto you. 4. "Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. 5. "I am the Vine, ye are the Branches: 'HE THAT ABIDETH IN ME AND I IN HIM, THE SAME BRINGETH FORTH MUCH FRUIT:' for without me ye can do Nothing. 6. "If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the Fire, and they are burned. 7. "If ye abide in me, and my Words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. 8. "Herein is my Father Glorified, 'THAT YE BEAR MUCH FRUIT.' so shall ye be my Disciples." THE OYINBOS HAVE A SAYING: "NO MAN IS A HERO TO HIS BUTLER." That is to say, the manservant of an acclaimed hero sees the unglamorous, even ugly side of his life that the public do not see. HOW MUCH MORE THE CHILDREN OF PARENTS WHO FAILED TO MANIFEST GOD TO THEM. Someone told KENNETH E. HAGIN that he found it hard to believe that he had had the experiences he had had (Rising from the Dead, Ascending to Heaven, seeing Jesus, etc.) BECAUSE HE KNEW THAT HE STILL READ "THE FUNNIES" IN THE NEWSPAPERS! Children see more serious Red Flags than those, telling them that their Parents' Religion is not to be taken as seriously as they make out. TAKING BLAKE HAGIN AS AN EXAMPLE: I REMEMBER A SERMON OF HIS GREAT-GRANDFATHER, WHERE HE MENTIONED BEING AT THE TOWN "BROKEN ARROW." KENNETH E. HAGIN then digressed, and remarked that there was also a town called "BROKEN BOW," and another called "NO WATER." He then joked that no wonder the Indians lost the War, "because they had a "BROWKEN ARRAH, BROWKEN BOW, an' NAW WARRAH!" That got a laugh from the Oyinbo audience- many of whom were Descendants of Indian-killers. HOW THEN COULD HIS CHILDREN UNDERSTAND THE IMPORTANCE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS? |

Truvelisback: There are 3 reasons for it. 1. God said, when a pastor eat church money. 2. The free will of choice. 3. Demonic influence. When a pastor failed to deal with his family foundation idols before having children. When you have not dealt with your demon and you start having children, the battles multiplies.

Truvelisback: Don't mind MaximumSide his mind, as other hypocritical JWs, is conditioned to see no good in others. I live among JWs, I know a bit of them. Anyways, the observation of the OP is true. As pointed out by someone up in the thread. Even, Samuel' s children are not left out nor two sons of Moses. The Apostles, except Paul had families, little is known about them. These days, pastors are trying to make their children interestedd in ministerial work unlike before, when the father, pastor, would leave their children and wives to go preaching. I know some ministries that started schools primarily for their pastors' children to correct mistakes made by other men of God. The like of MaxInDHouse criticize them. Find time to read God's Generals, or people like Smith Wiggles worth, John Wesley, etc... These people were so engrossed in the work and neglected their families. The same still goes on today, but, I pray God will continue to help and give wisdom to the pastors I think it is the devil at work to rubbish their fathers' labour in the vineyard. 1 Like 1 Share |
Re: Why Are Most Pastors Children Stubborn? by MaxInDHouse(m): 7:02am On Oct 16, 2021 |
MightySparrow: The point i'm making is simple, only JWs have a global family where the children can learn from good examples of their mates doing great in our faith. Oyedepo, Adeboye, Kumuyi and Olukoya can only watch helplessly when their children turn against their teachings and since these men don't have a solid proof that their religion is authentic their children are exposed to interfaith which will eventually makes the child bold enough to confront his father. Unlike JWs once anyone is going against the rules of the global family he/she is no more a Christian. That is what makes the difference! ![]() |

MISHIGAS! Lostchild: IT WOULD BE HONEST TO SAY THAT YOU CAN ONLY THINK OF THREE REASONS. To say that there are only three implies that you have eliminated the possibility of other causes. The greatest Pentecostal Teacher of the 20th Century was KENNETH E. HAGIN. His great-grandson, BLAKE KENNETH HAGIN was convicted for participation in ATTEMPTED MURDER. He pled GUILTY. KENNETH ERWIN HAGIN testified of being converted at the literal GATE OF HELL: he DIED and was Raised from the Dead by the prayers of his devout mother and grandmother. He saw "JESUS CHRIST," went to "HEAVEN" with him, and received an unprecedented Healing Gift that would only Heal those who heard and believed his Testimony of going to Heaven. He saw "Jesus Christ" on multiple occasions, and spoke with him, conversationally. Thousands into millions testified of being Healed by him, if not personally, then through his Teachings on Faith- including myself. Since all of his Teachings checked out Biblically, it took a long time for me to identify what was wrong with his ministry. His son, KENNETH HAGIN JUNIOR, personally testified of meeting people who had come from across the country, to be prayed for by KENNETH ERWIN HAGIN. He told them that he was not available, but someone else could equally pray for them. They replied (it is about 37 years since I read this in their own publication- I do not at this time recall which one,) that they had "come to be prayed for by the pinch-hitter." (I specifically remember him saying that they used that phrase. I believe it derives from their national sport: Baseball.) Kenneth Hagin Junior, a grown adult by this time, replied to the effect that everyone there was a "pinch-hitter," and could equally pray for them. They replied that, no, they wanted to be prayed for by KENNETH E. HAGIN, and no one else. KENNETH HAGIN JUNIOR SAID THAT HE REPLIED: "OK- DIE, THEN!" In relating this, he said: "IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE THAT I SAID THAT, THEN YOU DON'T KNOW ME!" This was the only other example of outright arrogance I ever heard of from the KENNETH HAGIN Ministry or family. At the time, I agreed with his point-of-view: that the visitors ought to trust that ANY Christian of the Kenneth Hagin Ministries was as close to God as KENNETH HAGIN himself. That is what Kenneth Hagin taught- because that is what PAUL taught. I always felt that something was wrong with Kenneth Hagin Junior's response, but could not find any specific unrighteousness in what he said. IT WAS SOME TIME LATER THAT I LEARNED, FROM THEIR COHORT, KENNETH COPELAND, THAT ORAL ROBERTS, T.L. OSBORN, AND KENNETH HAGIN'S PRAYERS AND HEALING TOUCHES WERE NOT 100% RELIABLE. He testified of meeting a silly-sounding woman, who boasted of having been prayed for by all these great Healers, and now came to see what KENNETH COPELAND could do. Up until that time, I had been under the impression that when THESE people laid hands on the sick, they were ALWAYS Healed. That was how they had always portrayed themselves in every tape and book I had seen and heard. Thinking back, I see how they carefully avoided claiming to be 100% reliable Healers, because that had criminal legal implications. One of their cabal had been sued because they prayed for a sick child, who later died. The Prosecutor attempted to show that they had promised a service that was not rendered. It only now struck me, that in light of his claim to an infallible Special Anointing, visitors had every right to demand to be prayed for by KENNETH E. HAGIN and no one else. THEIR LIVES DEPENDED ON IT. It was the donations of the people that made their ministry possible. People were paying their Tithes into the Ministry- while getting Tax-Deductions- because Kenneth Hagin did not teach that that negated their Spiritual Blessing. I had to find that out from DOCTOR GENE SCOTT on WWCR, many years after I left Organized I had had no idea that that was going on. It took much longer to find gleeful news reports of Sicknesses in the Hagin family and circle which his Unique Healing Powers did not Heal. In 2015, it came to light that KENNETH COPELAND was a ROMAN CATHOLIC UNDERCOVER AGENT the whole time. The Anglican Agent who outed him got him and other Secret Agents to pose with the Pope, and exulted: "NOW WE ARE NO MORE PROTESTANTS!" Two weeks later, that agent, TONY PALMER, was DEAD. Motorcycle "accident." OYINBO CHRISTIANITY IS A DEADLY BUSINESS. The children see all these things growing up, and know that there is little or nothing in That Way that they want to lay down their lives for- AT THAT TIME. A researcher into the BORN AGAIN CHRISTIAN phenomenon remarked on the negative effect of people testifying to youngsters that they had BOOZED, DRUGGED, VIOLENCED, and SEXED ALL THEY WANTED- then "COME BACK TO JESUS" - and been made a ROCK STAR. He said that he could see some of these youngsters thinking, that WHY COULDN'T THEY ALSO go and enjoy the World, then afterwards, "GIVE THEIR HEART TO JESUS?" The reason is that IT REALLY DOESN'T WORK! I have NEVER seen any example of an ATHEIST converting to FULL GOSPEL CHRISTIANITY: it is always EVANGELICAL Christianity- which opposes PENTECOSTALISM as "FANATICAL DELUSION." DAN BARKER was an ASSEMBLIES OF GOD Pentecostal Minister for NINETEEN YEARS- and then DENOUNCED Christianity as a FRAUD, coming out as an ATHEIST. He declares that there is NO EVIDENCE OF GOD'S EXISTENCE. He said that God speaking through PROPHETS, instead of speaking to Sinners IN PERSON us EVIDENCE that He DOES NOT EXIST. For a FULL GOSPEL Minister to say this- knowing of fellow Ministers who testified of SEEING JESUS- ORAL ROBERTS, T.L. OSBORN, KENNETH HAGIN, ROLAND S. BUCK, ROBERTS S. LIARDON, and others, means that he was an ATHEIST UNDERCOVER AGENT the whole time. oaroloye: THERE ARE ONLY FOUR CATEGORIES OR ROUTES OF FAILURE: oaroloye: MaxInDHouse: ANY CHRISTIAN WHO DENOUNCES HOLY GHOST BAPTISM AS NOT BEING OF GOD HAS PURCHASED A ONE-WAY TICKET TO CERTAIN DAMNATION. . LEVITICUS 24:15-16. 15. "And thou shalt speak unto the Children of Israel, saying, 'WHOSOEVER CURSETH HIS GOD SHALL BEAR HIS SIN.' 16. "And he that blasphemeth The Name of The LORD, he shall surely be put to Death, and all the Congregation shall certainly stone him: as well the Stranger as he that is Born in the land, when he blasphemeth The Name of The LORD, shall be put to Death." . MATTHEW 12:22-45. 22. Then was brought unto him one possessed with a Devil, blind, and dumb: and he healed him, insomuch that the Blind and Dumb both spake and saw. 23. And all the people were amazed, and said, "IS NOT THIS THE SON OF DAVID?" 24. But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, "This fellow doth not cast out Devils, but by Beelzebub the Prince of the Devils." 25. And Jesus knew their thoughts, and Said unto them, "Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand: 26. "And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his Kingdom stand? 27. "And if I by Beelzebub cast out Devils, by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they shall be your judges. 28. "But if I cast out Devils by The Spirit of God, then The Kingdom of God is come unto you. 29. "Or else how can one enter into a Strong Man's House, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the Strong Man? And then he will spoil his House. 30. "He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad. 31. "Wherefore I Say unto you, 'ALL MANNER OF SIN AND BLASPHEMY SHALL BE FORGIVEN UNTO MEN: BUT THE BLASPHEMY AGAINST THE HOLY GHOST SHALL NOT BE FORGIVEN UNTO MEN.' 32. "And whosoever speaketh a Word against The Son of Man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against The Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this World, neither in the World to come. 33. "Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit. 34. "O Generation of Vipers, how can ye, being Evil, speak Good Things? For out of the Abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh. 35. "A Good Man out of the Good Treasure of the heart bringeth forth Good Things: and an Evil Man out of the Evil Treasure bringeth forth Evil Things. 36.But I Say unto you, 'THAT EVERY IDLE WORD THAT MEN SHALL SPEAK, THEY SHALL GIVE ACCOUNT THEREOF IN THE DAY OF JUDGMENT.' 37. "For by thy Words thou shalt be Justified, and by thy Words thou shalt be Condemned." 38. Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, "Master, we would see a Sign from thee." 39. But he Answered and Said unto them, "An Evil and Adulterous Generation seeketh after a Sign; and there shall no Sign be given to it, but The Sign of the Prophet Jonas: 40. "For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the Earth. 41. "The men of Nineveh shall rise in Judgment with this Generation, and shall Condemn It: because they repented at the Preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a Greater than Jonas is here. 42. "The Queen of the South shall rise up in the Judgment with this Generation, and shall Condemn It: for she came from The Uttermost Parts of the Earth to hear The Wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a Greater than Solomon is here. 43. "When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none. 44. "Then he saith, 'I WILL RETURN INTO MY HOUSE FROM WHENCE I CAME OUT;' and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished. 45. "Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this Wicked Generation." THE 25th CHAPTER OF THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO MATTHEW, AND THE 1st THROUGH 3rd CHAPTERS OF YOCHANNAN'S REVELATION BOTH PROVE THAT JUST BECAUSE A CHURCH IS RECOGNIZED BY LORD YESHUA IN HEAVEN, THAT DOES NOT MEAN THAT THEY ARE ALWAYS RIGHT, AND THAT OPPOSING THEIR LEADERSHIP IS WRONG! . MATTHEW 23:8,10. 8. "But be not ye called 'Rabbi:' for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are Brethren. 10. "Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ." LORD YESHUA IS THE ONLY LEGITIMATE LEADER OF HIS CHURCH! |
