Para-church Organizations: Anti-God? Anti-Christ?
Based upon one’s own personal experiences in churches (black and white), coupled with the experiences and observations of other great preachers/teachers, past and present (all across the U.S.), how can one then conclude as but that what we have here is a nation of churches not only out of touch with its Savior, but, is equally (perhaps unwittingly, to some extent) out of His favor (many of these today are large and prosperous beyond the average ancient preacher/pastor’s wildest dreams). Unthinkable? Remember that, by highlighting the seven churches of the Revelation in around 96 AD, and by singling out only two of the weakest and most obscure of that seven as faithful and therefore worthy of His notice, Christ our Lord basically blew off nearly 75% of the early churches (including the wealthiest and best educated of them) threatening them, warning them as ones being in grave danger of losing a salvation for which He had given His own life—and, of the 5 forming the 75%, 2 were actually guilty of doing everything right (up to a point; they were actually engaged in a kind of unholy alliance such that they effectively were subject to two masters—an unacceptable practice in the Lord’s economy.)! The epistles, written as corrective measures, not evangelism tools, also confirm that virtually all the early churches were in serious trouble, within a short period following the Lord’s resurrection and ascension.
Christian Media
As if all the aforementioned were not bad enough, there is the matter of the so-called para-church ministries, particularly those operating under the umbrellas of the Christian broadcast mediums of radio and television. While satan appears not only to be fully in charge of and in control of the two major television networks, he has more recently (as of about 10 years or so ago, @ 04/22/06) launched and introduced his latest successful attack on Biblical Christianity in the form of a campaign dubbed the KLOVE Broadcast Association (begun in 1982, somewhere in California. Please note that while the attack is on Biblical Christianity, as well as the traditional American styled brand, truthfully, Christianity as practiced by Americans might itself easily be construed as a running, on-going satanic attack upon the Biblical!). “Positive and uplifting” (they say of themselves) “...encouraging...,” in the name of God, this organization appears to have bought out and/or taken over Christian radio stations from coast to coast (Even worse, unconfirmed reports have it that TBN now owns KLOVE). Hence, the post they occupy is no small matter in the eyes of the Almighty. They are poised to affect the minds and very subtly poison the hearts of multitudes of people all over this country.
