Ryhmes with “funny,” “honey,” and “bunny.”

Recently I was changing the channel of a television set at a convalescent facility I was at when I came across Mike Murdoch who was holding one of his own books as he was preaching (not the Bible). And guess what he was talking about? It was the very same thing he was talking about when I came across him on TV back in October (see this previous post). I’ll give you one guess and three hints as to what he was talking about–what his “gospel” is. Se if you can guess correctly.

Hint 1: It rhymes with “funny.”

Hint 2: It rhymes with “honey.”

Hint 3: It rhymes with “bunny.”

As a side note, the video below is an update on another wolf leading the flock astray: Kenneth Copeland.

Mike Murdock and the three magic genie “prayers.”

I saw something recently that I wanted to share. I was out of town and came across TBN and another TBN-like “Christian” channel called Inspiration on the TV in the hotel. I found myself mesmerized, switching back and forth between the two. My wife asked why I was bothering watching this, but it was like watching a train wreck. You don’t want to look, but you can’t help it.

On this particular channel they were having a Camp Meeting Telethon (a fund-raiser . . . imagine that!) and even TD Jakes was pimping for dollars. Then came Mike Murdock. What this purveyor of the prosperity gospel said caused me to reach for my pad and pen to take note.

Mr. Murdock told the audience (and those watching from home) that he prayed for three blessing for us. (Gee, thanks for caring so much about us, Mike). They sounded more like magic genie wishes to me. Are you ready for this?

1). That every blessing he gets you get too. He called this the Prayer of Boaz.

2). That you can own your home debt free. Not just any old small home but a huge mansion of a home. During this same broadcast he boasted about how big his home was.

3). That God will put people in your lives that you can “get something from.” Wow, using people for our benefit has never felt so spiritual. But doesn’t the Bible warn against this?

With all this garbage that spewed out of his mouth, the “audience” just clapped and applauded and nodded in approval. I grieve for them. They are so deceived because they are so ignorant of the Scriptures.

FourPointer recently posted an article on Mr. Murdock. You can see it here.

Does your pastor live in a 3.6 million dollar home?

Thanks to Independent Conservative for keeping us aware of what men like this are gaining from the “gospel.” I was actually more surprised by the results of the news poll at the end of the video than I was that yet another preacher is using the Gospel to live like a king.

With all the damage that men like this do to the true Gospel of Jesus Christ, is it any wonder why Atheism is growing?

Does the “W” really stand for “Watch?”

Here’s the website selling the official I Worship Watch Joel Osteen lapel pin. It’s just another example of our bloated excess as the Western Church lives in the comfortable lap of luxury.

I wonder how many Christians who are going without food in their stomachs or Scriptures in their hands in the poorest parts of India are going to order this as a Christmas present. I wonder how many Christians who are fleeing from Mulsims trying to kill them, or who are being tortured in a communist prison cell are itching to get their hands on this.

Can we expect WWJD (What Would Joel Do?) anytime soon?

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.

Profits for Prophets

This is a video compilation that epitomizes so many of the problems with the most visible parts of the “Church” today.

To those unbelievers who watch this stuff, give me just a moment of your time to say this: What you saw in this video is NOT Christianity. It is a corrupt and vile counterfeit and complete heresy and these men and women will have so much to answer for on the day of judgment. There will be so many souls that will end up in hell because of the lies spread by these snakes that it would be better for them to never have been born. Please don’t be one of them. Please don’t let the apostasy that you see in these false prophets and false teachers turn you away from God. Jesus Christ warned us in the Bible that these wolves in sheep’s clothing would come. His prophecy has come true. If you want to see what real Christianity is, I urge you to watch this video.

Joyce Meyer financial update.

meyerhome.jpg According to Wall Watchers in the latest issue of World Magazine, after refusing to make its financial records public, and after months of criticism (including reports in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch), Joyce Meyer Ministries has finally caved in and sold their five-home estate (worth 3.7 million dollars) and are starting to make their financial statements available.

My contention is not whether or not preachers like this make their financial records available to the public. I don’t need financial records to know that they are rolling in money and living in the lap of luxury. My contention is 1). How are they using the money? and 2). What are they teaching?

Joyce Meyer’s Conference.

Prosperity preacher and self-help guru Joyce Meyers teams up with anti-Trinitarian “Bishop” T.D. Jakes and Chris Caine from Hillsong Church for a women-only conference.

Click on the above picture to see more, including a short video where the “concert stage” has the huge words “confidence” hanging at its sides. This video clip also includes T.D. Jakes telling the crowd that their greatest days are in front of them. Also take note of this year’s theme: Purpose & Passion. Hmm. . . where have we seen that word “purpose” and that word “passion” before? Talk about buzz-word overkill.

After viewing the video of the entertainment-driven, emotion-driven, pep-rally extravaganza, consider exploring where all the millions of dollars goes that Joyce Meyer takes in. Click here to see where some of that money is spent.

For those of you who are planning on attending this spectacle September 20-22nd, I’d like to hear from you. What do you think of the glitter and flash? What do you think of the sheer influx of money that she receives from people like you? People who need to get yet another spiritual high from yet another hyped-up conference? And I’m not even talking about Meyer’s heretical teachings (which I’ll post at a later date).

I have a suggestion to all those planning on attending this event. Instead of buying more Joyce Meyer books and paraphernalia and attending more Joyce Meyer conferences (where you can ironically buy even more Joyce Meyer books and paraphernalia) have you considered being a better steward of your time and money? How about getting your spiritual guidance from the Word of God and giving your money to those who need it? I’m not being sarcastic. I’m dead serious. But before you leave your comments, please watch this video first.

Jesus Christ and Christianity are now “products.”

Thanks to T.D. Jakes & Joel Osteen for their contribution to the downfall of Christianity in the West.

Watch for these gems in the video:

*He [TD Jakes] works as hard as any CEO and makes no apologies for living like one too.”

*The first evangelicals in the 19th century were often sales people, people who understood a customer, knew how to sell a product. There’s always been this interesting connection between marketing and evangelism. (Author Laura Nash)

*The narrator’s description of Osteen’s book as “largely secular” with a “think big message.” (Yet Christian bookstores continue to sell this book).

*And listen to Joel Osteen’s answer to the interviewer’s question: “God is a growth business?”
