The warnings of GOD that evil times, evil people are indeed coming. He warns us in advance so that when the time comes, we can't say, but, but, but, you didn't warn us of all this bad stuff; if I had known I would get smacked for being a Christian, I wouldn't have joined!!
NO, GOD warns us and tells us that we will have fools out there trying to take our money, misleading us down the wrong road, yet it is OUR RESPONSIBILITY to heed His warnings and to recognize all these crooks and false teachers!!! BUT, don't worry about them, for they WILL APPEAR before Judgment, administered by the Creator GOD of Heaven and Earth!! HE will take care of all these people. They lie, cheat, and yes, steal from their flock. He will judge, He will decide their fate, He will take all punishment for these fools. I don't worry about their lies. I ignore them as I KNOW He will take care of it.
“or the many others on TV who want you to “sew your seed money” in THEIR ministry so that you will get rich!!”
Excellent post Bro!
Paula White, Kenneth Copeland, Jim Bakker, Steven Anderson, Beth Moore are prime examples of these heretics.
Jesus left us with His Promise however:
John 16:33
These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
Let us continue to be Joyous in Him!
