[Bishop James 'I Feel God' Brown]

Gallup Poll: In U.S., 3 in 10 interpret the Bible literally, saying it is the actual word of God. A 49% plurality of Americans say the Bible is the inspired word of God but that it should not be taken literally. See the results here

[Bishop R.G.Mallory]

We live in a day of knowlege and technology. Knowlege was Adams down fall and still remains ours. The falling away cant happen without explaining away the bible and its standards. The numbers reflect the coming apostacy that scripture predicts.

I don't understand what Bishop Mallory means by coming apostasy. Is it something new? Which "christian group" does not claim they have the perfect understanding of scripture. Calvanists once believed that we in Africa are apes that shed off our hairs. Jehovah's witnesses roam the streets proclaiming a god that cannot be felt in today's life. Some groups think the Holy Spirit went back to heaven after Paul died, so we shouldn't be talking about divine healing today, we shouldn't be talking about speaking in tongues and other manifestations of the Holy Spirit. Some think that we should return to Sabath laws. The list goes on and on.

Each of these groups claim the bible as their authority. One should think the bible is not clear about these matters on the first reading level, but the opposite is the case. And for Christ's sake, you guys in the USA keep sending somethings you call new revelation to us in Africa.

My joy in all this is that God knows what he said in his word. I hereby recommend to anyone desiring truth to return to the Spirit of TRUTH- Holy Spirit

[Elder Max Spiegel]

Bishop this is a no brainer , remember JESUS said something like stait is the gate and narrow is the way that leads to life and FEW be that find it , but broad is the way that leads to destruction and many be there on .So i figure his Word is still right.
