The “Christian” psychic . . . uh, I mean prophet . . . and his prophetic soap.

Want to be a Christian but don’t want to give up your love of psychics and psychic readings? Well now you don’t have to. Thanks to self-proclaimed psychic prophet Bishop E. Bernard Jordan, if you “donate” $50 you will receive a live-streaming “prophecy” in which the “company of prophets will call your name and prophesy to you into the camera while you watch.” Can’t afford $50? Then send your “$37 faith offering and receive your personal, tailer-made prophetic word from the prophet Jordan, in his own voice, on CD.”

Also, did you know that “the Bible is the greatest success manual ever written?” According to Bishop Jordan, applying the principles found in the Bible will transform you from a believer to an achiever.

And finally, what would any self-respecting psychic prophet be without his own line of prophet soap? That’s right! You can now order bars of soap that “will cause you to experience the prophetic in a way you would never expect.”

I enjoy the mild aroma of the Prophetic Awareness Soap , but I prefer the way the Prosperity Soap leaves my skin feeling soft and fresh.

So what is Jim Bakker up to these days?

With the recent passing of Tammy Faye Bakker-Messner, and her funeral performed by the homosexual “Reverend” Randy McCain, I thought we should drop in and see what her ex-husband has been up to.

Welcome to the Jim Bakker Show. Notice the first box under his picture on his website is a Paypal link to “Donate Now.” The more things change the more they stay the same.

wurmbrand.jpg When I came out from solitary confinement and was with other prisoners and heard them speaking, I wondered why they spoke! So much of our speech is useless. Today men become acquainted with each other and one will say, “How do you do?” and the other answers, “How do you do?” What is the use of this? Then one will say, “Don;t you think that the weather is fine?” and the other thinks, and says, “Yes, I think it is fine.” Why do we have to speak on whether the weather is fine? We do not take earnestly the word of Jesus who says that men will be judged not for every bad word, but for every useless one.

Summer slam: This church is doing its part in spreading the gospel of Bike Safety!

This church describes itself as having “awesome” worship and a “relevant” message. Judging by this post and accompanying video, they also feel bike safety is the most important need in the community. Read the article and watch the video. Day 1: Bike stunts, games and inflatables. Day 2: Hyped up music which they hope the kids will come back for.

Quote from the video: Why do Summer Slam? “To reach a need in our community by spreading a message of bike safety to show people a relationship with our church and Jesus.”

Sola Scriptura (6)

bible-page.jpg Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but One who has been tempted in all things as we are, yet without sin. Therefore let us draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

– Hebrews 4:14-16

Mormon “Prophet” Joseph Smith’s teaching on the Trinity not only contradicts orthodox Christianity, it also contradicts the Book of Mormon.

For those who think Mormonism is just another Christian denomination, I present for your consideration the following quote from Mormonism’s founder:

“Many men say there is one God; the Father, the son and the Holy Ghost are only one God! I say this is a strange God anyhow—three in one, and one in three! It is a curious organization. . . . All are to be crammed into one God, according to sectarianism. It would make the biggest God in all the world. He would be a wonderfully big God—he would be a giant or a monster.“

(History of the Church * Volume 6 Page 476 * 1844)

But Joseph Smith couldn’t even get his own teachings straight. His teaching on the Trinity contradicts the very teaching of the Book of Mormon:

“. . . And now behold, this is the doctrine of Christ, and the only and true doctrine of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, which is one God without end. Amen.“

(Book of Mormon * 2 Nephi 31:21 * Allegedly written between 559 BC and 545 BC)

“. . . Christ the Son, and God the Father, and the Holy Spirit, which is one eternal God . . .“

(Book of Mormon * Alma 11:44 * Allegedly written in 82 BC)

“. . . unto the Father, and unto the Son, and unto the Holy Ghost, which are one God . . .“

(Book of Mormon * Mormon 7:7 * Allegedly written in 385 AD)

So which one is it modern Mormon? Which doctrine is correct? Who was correct on the Trinity? Joseph Smith or the Book of Mormon?
