American Churches: The Lamb's Bride or the Devil's Workshop? (Part 3)
Those Lying Holiness Preachers!
The following is meant to convey some of the wrong doctrine coming out of the TBN and Daystar broadcast networks, which spiritually adversely, negatively affects the lives of, not just the 600,000,000 Pentecostals (they claim), but other truth seekers all around the world, daily, most of whom will rarely if ever get equal exposure to more wholesome Bible teaching, in light of the TBN/Daystar domination of the airwaves:
The idea and theology espoused, embraced and spread by these types of theologians is such that, God is a Despiser of the underprivileged, and a Respecter only of the privileged; the successful; those who are the winners in the game of life. The reality is, nothing could be farther from the truth (as evinced by Jesus' Sermon on the Mount and the Old Testament prophets). These people, these Pentecostals, are all liars, and their teachings are lies (laced, of course, with truth). Yet, this, and similar doctrine, is spread as dogma and part of the gospel message, all around the world, daily, in the Name of Almighty God. The mainline denominations are also guilty of this same kind of exclusionist thinking.
Cash-strapped ministries are a sign that God is not blessing, or God is not with the work of that ministry; the poor are a despicable sight, being spiritually challenged; God will not protect those who cannot afford to pay for that protection! Really?
The fact is, in God’s eyes, the man who has little and is no less righteous, fearing God in the process, is much more to be desired than any who has great riches and yet lives un-righteously (Proverbs 15:16; 16:8, 19; 17:1; 19:1; Rev. 2:8-11; 3:7-8). Furthermore, it is God’s estimation that the man and/or ministry who takes upon himself to dishonor, demean, mock or belittle any individual, in any way, simply because that man, woman, or that child is poor, in the end reproaches his Maker, the one who made him (Proverbs 15:31; 17:5). Finally, it is God’s expectation that those who have, rather than looking down upon the poor with condescension, should take notice of him, with pity, i.e., by giving a helping hand. In so doing, the one showing mercy to the poor, actually lends to the Lord Himself; that is, God obligates Himself to the giver (it should be noted here that, giver is not merely one who gives so as to prompt God to respond in his favor. Actually, he is the one who is striving to do the will of God, walking with Him daily, ordering his steps and life accordingly, so that he has a ‘God’ kind of genuine concern for the less-fortunate.). He will repay him, for his kindness (Proverbs 19:17). The Psalmist says in song, “the man who considers the plight of the poor is blessed of the Lord, so that when his time of trouble comes, God will remember, and thereafter deliver him” (Psalm 41:1).
