The False teachers are here
- The Televangelists
|
Jesus said there will be many wolves in sheep’s clothing. Understand that many means literally countless of numbers. There have been so many and they keep emerging. These preachers twist doctrine and read verses out of context.
They are there to control religion and to convince their congregation that Gog and Magog have not yet arrived. They are mainly there for monetary gain and political reasons. Within them there are heartless fake healers.
The televangelists preach what you want to hear and ask a price for it. They are multi-millionaires (whereas some are billionaires). They are showmen and their lives are full of scandals (adulterous relationships, corruption etc.). Beware of the Television preachers.
Besides insulting God in their sermons, they are also teaching that we are all gods on this earth and are one with the true God. This is blasphemy.
“Jesus said to him, ‘If you would be perfect, go, sell what you possess and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.’” Matthew 19:21 RSV
Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.” James 4:4
They are friends of this world. They own many mansions, private Jets and live opulent lifestyles. They are friends with the ‘questionable’ rulers of this world, chat show hosts, and even celebrities. They are storing up all their money, exactly what the Jesus said not to do.
“He [God] doesn't even draw a distinction between Himself and us. . . . You know what else that's settled, then, tonight? This hue and cry and controversy that has been spawned by the Devil to try and bring dissension within the body of Christ that we are gods. I am a little god! . . . I have His name. I'm one with Him. I'm in covenant relation. I am a little god! Critics, be gone!” 310 Paul Crouch, “Praise the Lord” program on TBN [7 July 1986]
"When you say, 'I am a Christian, you are saying, 'I am mashiach' in the Hebrew. I am a little messiah walking on earth in other words that is a shocking revelation.... May I say it like this?

"God's reason for creating Adam was His desire to reproduce Himself. I mean a reproduction of Himself, and in the Garden of Eden He did just that. He was not a little like God.

Adam, in the Garden of Eden, was God manifested in the flesh." 310 Kenneth Copeland Following the Faith of Abraham I, side 1
"I was shocked when I found out who the biggest failure in the Bible actually is....The biggest one is God....I mean, He lost His top-ranking, most anointed angel; the first man He ever created; the first woman He ever created; the whole earth and all the Fullness therein; a third of the angels, at least--that's a big loss, man. . .” 312 Kenneth Copeland - Praise-a-Thon program on TBN [April 1988]

"God can't do anything in this earth realm except what we, the body of Christ, allow Him to do. Now that statement is so--that's so--that's so foreign and so contrary to tradition that, like I said, if they could get their hands on me right now most evangelicals would burn me at the stake and dismember me and feed me to the crocodiles, because they'll consider that statement to be just heresy." 310 Frederick K.C.

“God’s on the outside looking in. He doesn’t have any legal entrée into the earth. The thing don’t belong to Him. You see how sassy the devil was in the presence of God in the book of Job?

You see, this is the position that God’s been in … Might say, ‘Well, if God’s running things, He’s doing a lousy job of it.’ He hadn’t been running ‘em, except when He’s just got, you know, a little bit of a chance.” 310 Kenneth Copeland, Image of God in You III (Fort Worth, TX: Kenneth Copeland Ministries, 1989), audiotape #01-1403, side 1

You know I’ve looked for one verse in the bible; i just can't seem to find it. One verse that says if you don't like them kill them. I really wish i could find it! But don't mention peoples names on your radio program and your t.v. program thinking you're doing God's service. Your not, you stink frankly, that's the way i think about it.
