I agree with what the others have said, too. It also brings to mind, something that has always bugged me.....when listening to a minister, preacher, etc. in a church building, or on tv......so many times they use the phrase similiar to ..... "the church....they....believers.....christians....etc. "......all the while bible thumping talking them down, etc......attempting to "expose" them. I got so tired of them clumping all believers together, and to have to sit there and listen to them downplaying the "church", while they still call themselves the church, or believers......and actually meaning to use some sort of clarification as "in general", or, "the others".....etc. Does any of this makes sense to anyone ?? Outside of the untruths that were being preached, and the reason that, by His Spirit, I was called out of each church, each phase of teachings, and preachers, etc....one at a time.....this was one thing that just really errked me.....lol......if I haven't explained myself very well, let me know, or maybe someone else was shown this, too, while being dragged outta Babylon.
Good post, too.....seems to be a recent rise in this phase of preaching. And have you seen the latest news about the preacher admitting to some hedious sins...?....I believe in forgiveness, and every aspect of it, but it was just that everytime I saw an interview, he has this odd sort of "grin-smile".....I did not discern a godly face expression.
I dont want to step out of line.....I'm sorry if I have....please let me know.
