To: Alas Babylon!
Cool! But what is an ‘internet’ pastor?

A pastor I watch over the internet. :-)

I post from the land of lukewarm (at best) churches...Red England. Since I can't find one that even remotely aligns with my beliefs; I follow the services of a church in Knoxville that streams over the internet every Sunday and Wednesday...a lifeline to brothers and sisters in Christ over 1000 miles away.

This pastor is a no-nonsense, no compromise 'fire and brimstone' preacher and teacher...makes me wonder what made CBS decide to film in his church.

To: who knows what evil?
This pastor is a no-nonsense, no compromise 'fire and brimstone' preacher and teacher...makes me wonder what made CBS decide to film in his church.

UPDATE: I am watching the Lord's Supper service from the church that CBS was filming this morning...it turns out that someone at CBS had seen Pastor Lawson's 2008 sermon on 'Hellfire', which is posted at YouTube. (I got my hands on a CD of this sermon which I would play for the neighbors and passersby while working outside on my garden. I listen to it whenever I feel I am wandering from the 'straight path'.) CBS filmed the morning services (both Sunday School and then interviewed the pastor for an hour following services. At the conclusion of the interview, she told him "nearly six million people will be watching this on our network...if you had one message that you wanted to pass on to them, what would it be?" He told her that no matter what your religion; the only way to Heaven was belief and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ (paraphrase); that He is the ONLY way.

What an amazing opportunity Yahweh has given this pastor; the chance to reach six million people with the Gospel message...all because someone at CBS 'stumbled' across his sermon on 'Hellfire' posted on YouTube. He works in mysterious ways, indeed. (Interesting to note he didn't want ANYTHING to do with CBS when he was told they wanted to speak with him...he knows all about the media, and does not trust them. We will see what remains of his message after the cutting room is finished with it.)
