"And
have no fellowship with the unfruitful
works of darkness, but rather reprove
them." (Ephesians 5:11) |
The Christian Establishment is asleep,
ignorant, apostate and dead. However, the
Christian Church is awake, aware, holy, and
alive. There, I've said it, and I meant every
word of it. If you are a member of one of the
thousands of churches that are part and parcel
of the Christian Establishment, I warn you: Get
out now...Leave "Sodom and Egypt" far behind and
enter the light of true Christianity. Do it
today!
It's been over 20 years now that Wanda and I
went into Christian ministry full-time, and in
these two decades I have, regrettably, become a
heart-sickened authority on pastors, ministers,
"reverends," theologians and other "priests" of
the devil who pretend to be Christian.
Tragically, of the hundreds and hundreds of
these would-be pillars of the Christian world
that I have encountered in my labors, I can
probably count on my ten fingers the number of
godly men and women I have met in the ranks of
today's vast majority of foul-minded, grotesque
clergy.
On the other hand, I have been pleased and
honored to meet and profit spiritually from
fellowship with untold numbers of little known,
unheralded, and, often, much despised true
Christian believers. To my amazement, I have
found that rarely are true Christians ordained
pastors or theologians. True Christians are
never invited to speak at the pulpit of the
Establishment churches. The 700 Club and
TBN would not dare to have a true, godly
man or woman guest on their milk-toast, silly,
hoaxter TV programs.
"You're too old-fashioned"
Almost every day Power of Prophecy
hears from sincere, faithful, Bible-believing
Christians who have been told by new-style
pastors that they are no longer welcome at their
churches. "You're too old-fashioned," they're
told, "too set in your ways."
Anyone who refuses to go along with hip-hop
and rock music, who still believes in such a
thing as sin or concepts like judgment, heaven,
and hell, who sticks with the King James
Version, who complains about the modern "God
wants you to be rich" dogma, or believes Jesus
is the only way to salvation is in jeopardy of
being told to "hit the road, you are not our
kind of Christian."
What we have today are legions of devilish,
politically correct, Establishment pastors and
leaders who don't care a plug nickel for Bible
truth. These are the goats that Jesus divides
from the sheep.
Am I being too hard on these poor, stupid,
21st century so-called "Christian" leaders? No
way! These big name liars and pretenders are
workers of darkness, masquerading angels of
light, ministers of unrighteousness, and we owe
them nothing but contempt. They are walking
side-by-side with their Master, Satan, and
millions of souls are perishing because of their
greedy, wicked conduct and stupidity. Why should
you and I honor the obedient servants of
Abaddon and Apollyon (Revelation
9:11).
"New Age? What is that?"
Let me, dear friends, give you just a few
examples of the slothful, unseemly, willful
ignorance of such men. Several years ago I was
invited to dinner at the home of a prominent
Austin, Texas physician and his wife, both of
whom are Christians. At that dinner was their
pastor, a man who led a large evangelical
congregation of a Bible Church located in
Westlake Hills, one of Austin's most affluent
and ritzy suburbs. This pastor had previously
been Professor of Theology at Dallas Theological
Seminary, an acclaimed training ground for
evangelicals and especially for Zionist Judaizer
types.
Introduced to this pastor as an author, he
asked me what type of books I wrote. "I expose
the New Age Movement," I answered.
"New Age? What is that,?" he responded, a
puzzled look on his face. Seeking to avoid
embarrassing this man, I simply suggested to
him, he might find
New Age Lies to Women,
a book by my wife, Wanda, of great interest,
particularly since he had taught the Old
Testament at Dallas Theological Seminary. The
book, I assured him, examines and discusses the
unfortunate revival in America of the ancient
worship of the Great Goddess.
Seeing once again a bewildered frown on the
man's face, I decided once again to try and help
him out of his difficulty. I said, "You know,
Pastor, remember the goddess, the 'Queen of
Heaven' mentioned by the prophet Jeremiah, where
the women of Israel angered God by baking cakes
as offerings to her, right in the temple." "And
of course," I added, "there is the Apostle
Paul's controversy over Diana, the great goddess
of the Ephesians, as discussed in the book of
Acts."
"I never heard of those things," the pastor
said, "are you sure you are not making this up?"
Friends, I later found out that at that very
time, this apostate minister was introducing
"Jewish dance" into church ritual, and the
congregation at his Church was eating it up! And
many more abominations were going on in his
ecumenical, worldly Church.
A little later, I met up with yet another
"learned," would be Christian teacher, a
well-known Southern Baptist Pastor from Roswell,
Georgia. This guy went on to become the
President of the Southern Baptist Convention.
He, too, said he didn't know what I was talking
about. All this fellow seemed to know about the
Christian faith could be found inside the covers
of the latest Norman Vincent Peale or Robert
Schuller book.
Reading the Bible More Important than
Degrees
I can tell you this...I would trust a man or
woman with a 3rd grade education who actually
reads his or her King James Bible far more
than I would trust these ignorant men who have
PhD, DD, and all the other stupid degree
acronyms behind their names and yet have never
once read their Holy Bible in its entirety.
In fact, I can't seem to find but a very few
pastors today who even believe in the Holy Bible
any more! They almost universally claim the
Scriptures have errors and mistakes that they
and their crummy theologian pals need to fix! I
asked one of these lukewarm pastors who called
in to complain about me on a talk show in
Phoenix, Arizona, which Bible did his professors
at his seminary teach from. His answer was:
"None! We never read and studied the Bible. We
used books written by learned men; the
scholarly."
"Well," I retorted, "there's your problem.
You claim to be a minister and preacher of God,
and you don't even know God's Word. You only
know the words of men!"
And I heard another voice
from heaven, saying, "Come out of her my
people, that ye be not partakers of her sins,
and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her
sins have reached unto heaven and God hath
remembered her iniquities." (Revelation 18: 4-5)
Hostwritten Sermons for Ignorant Men
I have also discovered over the years that
not one pastor in a thousand actually prepares
his own weekly sermon. They're ghostwritten for
him, you see, by unseen and unknown teachers.
Apostate publishers put out (sell!) and
distribute hundreds of canned, pre-printed
"sermons" for dumbed-down pastors. Of course
don't ask the apostate pastors who spout all
this drivel what it means. They are just
"readers"—ignorant, lazy, serpent-following
plagiarists of material written and published by
other stupid men who also don't read the
Scriptures for themselves.
Of course, at most charismatic, misnamed
"Full Gospel" churches today, the pastors don't
even bother to use the canned, pre-printed
sermons. They just come to the pulpit unprepared
and depend on the unholy, disorderly confusion
and chaos of dozens of people pretending to be
super-holy by "speaking in other tongues" all at
the same time (a gross violation of the Apostle
Paul's admonition in I Corinthians 14).
Then the incompetent and slothful pastors
pitch-out 15 or 20 minutes of occult
psychobabble nonsense about positive confessions
and prosperity thinking. They mix in a
clamorous, windy bag of jived-up, sensuous rock
music and the people then leave the church all
emotionally hyped up, imagining they really met
God that day. Unbelievable!—also sad and wicked.
There is a True Christian Church
But wait! In the midst of all this apostasy,
even as the "Congregations of the Dead" continue
to spin out the devil's foolishness, there
remains a true Christian Church. The wicked and
their leaders are greater in number, and the
world holds its filthy-lucre pastors in higher
esteem. But the faithful people I like to call
"The Little People"—men and women who pray and
humble themselves before God and who proclaim
the power and perfection of His Word—are still
out there.
True, the people of the real and authentic
Christian Church are hated and despised by the
pastors of the bigger "Christian Establishment"
churches. Usually, true Christian believers
don't even have a church home; at least not a
church they go to labeled Baptist, Methodist,
Episcopal, Seventh Day Adventist, Lutheran, or
Assembly of God. They're not welcome at these
places. But then, they do not desire to
enter these big and rich sanctuaries of hell!
Instead, they recall and cherish the precious
words of Jesus: "Where two or three are
gathered together in my name, there am I in the
midst of them."
Just as vital, the true Christian does not
need a popular group of Christian Establishment
fun and celebration entertainers, a showman in
the pulpit, or an imposing Cathedral of brick or
glass and stone. The true Christian has Jesus
Christ living in his or her heart. He is drawn
nigh to Zion by God's miraculous love. He or she
is an overcomer. True Christians know what they
are and who He is! They also know who the fakers
and pretenders are and are gifted with
discernment to understand and appreciate the
power of the "mystery of godliness." That's why
they don't confuse big numbers and dollars with
the spiritual things of God.
Don't be Loved to Death
Today, the world loves it's own, and you will
be much loved if you are an active member of
Sodom and Egypt's big-time tent, the Christian
Establishment. Just remember, Satan's Church
will love you all right. It and its people
will love a wicked person right to his death.
But Jesus and His Christian Church, though they
have no money to give you, no fame and sensual
delights to offer, will love you to life.
That, dear friends, is the clear choice every
person today must make: the choice between the
establishment's sure death or Christ's guarantee
of eternal life. Have you made your decision
yet? Do so quickly. Time may run out very, very
soon.
And I heard
another voice from heaven,
saying, "Come out of her my
people, that ye be not partakers
of her sins, and that ye receive
not of her plagues. For her sins
have reached unto heaven and God
hath remembered her iniquities."
(Revelation 18: 4-5) |
