"Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world." - I John 4:1 KJV
"I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars." - Revelation 2:2 KJV
I am now in the process of starting up a new church here in Chicago. I have been preaching the Gospel since 1987. I spent all of those years assisting pastors and being loyal to the church that I raised in. When a vacancy arose, I got shafted. No hard feelings though. I learned a lot about life, people, and the world. I am currently working on my dissertation in pastoral counseling. My ministry is holistic, and I believe we must serve the entire family not just a mother or sister or brother but the entire clan, I specialize in youth ministry, I've spent the last 26 years as a clinician providing therapy and counseling to behavior disordered youth
I want to personally thank all of you for your comments on my latest statement concerning the fact that the church of today has become a “business operation.” I want you to all know - including those who continue to stubbornly disagree with me - that I wouldn’t be making such statements in my sermons, unless they were Holy Spirit-inspired and backed up by Scripture…
For the gentleman who commented, “My brother it is our job as brethren, not to be focus on what other is [are] doing, but to stay true our calling and mandate,” I say, that this IS my calling and mandate - as well as ever Christian. Jude 3 and 4 is quite specific: that we must contend (fight) for the faith which was once and for all delivered to the saints. I am not focused on what “other’s” are doing. I am exposing false doctrine and other corruption in the Body of Christ that will have long-range and damaging affects on the spiritual growth of those who are still babes in Christ. That is why the church is in the pitiful and sad shape it is in now - because of Christians who would rather stick their heads in the sand and say nothing, then to stand on the Word of God and defend it against those who continue to preach and teach false doctrine. Like it or not, God specifically called a remnant of believers in the Body of Christ for this purpose and they are here to stay.
When you really look at it, the church has become a “business operation”. We have all of these conferences, where you have to pay all of this money to attend. You hear more about wealth, than you hear about trying to build a Christian spirit…
It makes me sad to think of so-called leaders in the black community talking about repositioning yourself, empowerment this and empowerment that and folks is dying spiritually and physically. How about we empower ourselves to preach the gospel! Instead of another seminar on how to have a successful business, how about we have a seminar on how to get saved!
I was looking at Jeremiah 23 this morning: ”But if they [these false prophets] had stood in My council, then they would have announced My words [not their words] to My people, and would have turned them back from their evil way and from the evil of their deeds.” Jer. 23:22 That’s interesting, because it seems as if history had already begun to repeat itself!
