    Building Lives, Not Buildings: The Biblical Mandate for Charitable Giving

    When a Christian is truly focused on Jesus Christ, they are not caught up in defending prosperity or promoting the so-called “gospel of poverty,” which I have never heard of, must be a “prosperity gospel preachers” term to try and silence people from speaking against them. I have never promoted...

    Building Lives, Not Buildings: The Biblical Mandate for Charitable Giving

    There is no doubt that God is a good Father who cares for His children and provides for their needs, and it is true that He calls us to be generous, especially toward the poor and toward the work of the ministry. However, when someone is constantly defending prosperity and saying that God always...

    Speaking God's Word

    I agree, that could very well be the reason, and they simply may not have understood that the person was merely speaking what the Bible says can take place in our lives. It can be concerning when people speak too casually about hearing from the Lord, especially when they frequently say, “The...

    Whole denominations, ministries and churches bow to the Baals of productivity and power. We want bigger buildings, bigger budgets and bigger badges - all for the kingdom of course. -David Orton

    Building Lives, Not Buildings: The Biblical Mandate for Charitable Giving

    Click Here for the new blog post. In many cases, when preachers beg for money, especially in emotionally charged or manipulative ways, the money often goes to maintain the ministry’s image, fund lavish lifestyles, or build physical empires, like bigger buildings, expensive media productions, or...

    Eyes Off the Truth: Recovering the Simplicity of the Gospel

    In a time when church buildings grow taller and programs grow busier, many are left wondering what the Gospel really is and where it can still be found in its purity. Confusion abounds not because the Word of God has changed, but because many have shifted their eyes from Christ to construction...

    Don’t Be Fooled by the Glow: When Darkness Pretends to Be Light

    I do not and will not listen to a false teacher, and I’m asking you to stop posting on my thread. What you’re teaching is not the truth of Christ, but a distorted message that twists Scripture to fit a man-made doctrine. The Bible makes it clear that the gospel is for all who believe, not just a...

    Don’t Be Fooled by the Glow: When Darkness Pretends to Be Light

    I'm content with the thread, FaithWillDo is simply reinforcing my point about how persistent false teachers can be in spreading incorrect doctrine and leading others away from the true meaning of the Bible. I believe the below. "Beloved, although I was very eager to write to you about our...

    Don’t Be Fooled by the Glow: When Darkness Pretends to Be Light

    Once again your interpretation of Scripture is not only speculative but dangerously misleading. You’re twisting verses out of context to build a theology that simply isn’t found in the Bible. That might work on someone unfamiliar with God’s Word—but it won’t work on me. I know my Bible, and it...

    Don’t Be Fooled by the Glow: When Darkness Pretends to Be Light

    Your interpretation of the "early rain of the Spirit" and the use of wine symbolism is deeply flawed and not grounded in sound biblical teaching. Twisting Scripture to support a false narrative is exactly what the Bible warns us about, and it won’t work on someone who knows the Word of God. The...

    Don’t Be Fooled by the Glow: When Darkness Pretends to Be Light

    Some people may believe your false teachings, but that doesn’t make them true. The only truth is found in the Bible. I trust that if God wants people to know the truth, He will lead them to His true Word—not to you. Once again, stop spreading your false doctrine and trying to deceive people. If...

    Masters of Cozenage

    I was reading this post on my friend's website and thought some of you might like to read it. Below is the first of it.: "To give some color to this age-old, Black & White Picture of “Painting” a good, honest, sincere, and Godly person with various shades of fraud, hypocrisy, malfeasance...

    “the proof or validation of genuine conversion is that the one who professes faith in Christ perseveres in that faith and grows in sanctification throughout the full course of his life. If a person professes faith in Christ and yet falls away or makes no progress in godliness, it does not mean...

    Stop with your false doctrine and attempts to deceive people. If you keep posting on my thread, you’ll continue to be exposed as the false teacher you are. You’re proof that my point is true—false teachers are everywhere. Everyone, study your Bibles so smooth-talking deceivers like this one...

    Don’t Be Fooled by the Glow: When Darkness Pretends to Be Light

    Your teaching contains several serious doctrinal errors when examined in light of Scripture. While it uses biblical language and verses, the underlying message departs from sound biblical truth on key points related to salvation, the work of the Holy Spirit, and assurance. The most concerning...

    Religious but Lost: What Jesus Really Said to the “Good People”

    Today in Luke 11:37–44, we see one of the most significant moments during Jesus’ time on earth. He was invited to dine with a Pharisee who, by the way, was one of the most religious men of his day. Instead of offering polite conversation or mutual admiration, Jesus delivers a sharp and public...

    If you’re a Christian and you support the modern geopolitical state of Israel, you deny that Christ is the Messiah. It's that simple.

    This is not true. According to Scripture, Israel holds a unique position as God's chosen people due to divine covenants established with their forefathers—Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. God's covenant with Abraham included promises of nationhood, blessings, and a land for his descendants (Genesis...
