]]> Comment on Copeland’s Crime? He Trusts His Family by Kim Youngblood http://religiousfreedominamerica.org/?p=7#comment-1538 Kim Youngblood Thu, 26 Feb 2009 06:26:51 +0000 http://religiousfreedominamerica.org/?p=7#comment-1538 Great article. Satan must be gloating that he can use power "religions," i.e. cults, to attack the faithful through the press and quasi-judicial system. Ultimately the goal is to kill, steal, and destroy from the faithful: kill their physical bodies through oppression caused by stress from legal actions, steal their family estates through the expense of responding to quasi-judicial "administrative actions," and destroy their futures in the press. We have suffered through this greatly in Arizona under the reign of the former State Attorney General and Governor, one who knew the letter of the law, and one who now heads the nation's Homeland Security. Thank you "Religious Freedom in America" for using the internet to wake up America to the systematic destruction of our precious religious freedom by a handful of well-placed politicians and journalists --- puppets for the "power religions/cults" intending to disenfranchise anyone who will not take their mark. The mark of the beast is the 666 covenant one enters into via the mark of the hand (a handshake) or the mark of consent with one's mind (forehead) if one chooses self preservation or self enrichment by making covenants with these "cult" members. The objective is to secure YOUR soul in hell by engaging your support, through deceit, in contributing to the disenfranchisement of God's elect, the faith-full (their ability to conduct commerce in the world's system) via the world's political and journalistic network. You cannot serve both God and mammon. Great article.

Kind of makes you wonder. It's twisted to think that people that are obedient to God should not also be prospered by God because of their obedience.

I wonder why. You would think that people imbued with a feeling of security that arrives with submitting to mythical powers could handle any adversity. It seems that people who need leaders to get them through life are the most insecure and therefore, pathetic. I can see now that whether it's evangelicals or Ron Paulnuts, there's always a wacko fringe to appropriate and exploit for personal gain. Perhaps there are self-made powerbrokers imbued with their own messianic complex that seek out the most weak in order to provide them with a sense of self-efficacy they can't provide for themselves. What do you think, Doug? Does this describe your mission when you aren't playing the role of presidential historian? Wow, a number of my posts to this blog have been deleted. I wonder why.

I have nothing to hide. "Also, your comment about only referencing the US Constitution and not scripture is rediculous from the outset, since the US Constitution is BASED on scripture! " What's "rediculous" (sic) is your assertion that the US Constitution is based on scripture. What scripture would that be exactly, trisha L? Funny that a holy roller nutjob as yourself would accuse someone else of being indoctrinated. Anyone from the government is free to investigate me or my financial holdings at anytime.

We are extremely grateful and thankful to God for Kenneth and Gloria and Kenneth Copeland Ministries for preaching the uncompromised word of God. We were introduced to KCM in the very first year of our salvation which strongly founded us in Gods word. We learned that Gods word is true and can be depended on. That God is not a man that he should lie. We learned to trust Him for our finances to get out of debt and stay out of debt. We cut up all our credit cards in that first year and chose to pay cash for things. It took us 7 years to get out of Debt and the very next month we were able to pay $42,000 cash for a Toyota Tarago. Over time I have given birth to 8 children quick and easy with absolutely no pain or complications. All of this because KCM teach people to go to Gods word and believe Him for what he has promised. We have also believed God that we will pay cash for our home and will not go into debt for it. We have a most blessed marriage and wonderful children who love the Lord and if we were in 'ministry' (and we all are) I would choose also to raise up our children to serve with us if God led them/us that way. God chose Abraham because he knew he would command his children after him. We have absolutely no doubt about the integrity of this ministry and pray that no weapon formed against it and its partners and all those standing with them shall prosper. God Bless them richly all things to enjoy. Looking forward to their visit to Brisbane Australia next year!!!! My husband and I have just celebrated 20 years in Christ.

]]> Comment on What’s so attractive about the Prosperity Gospel? by Rev. Darryl L. Miller http://religiousfreedominamerica.org/?p=5#comment-243 Rev. Darryl L. Miller Wed, 03 Dec 2008 17:48:09 +0000 http://religiousfreedominamerica.org/?p=5#comment-243 What is so appalling about Dr. Synan article is that of its attack upon main-line churches, and its glorification of the many teleevangelists who promote the prosperity theology as ethical. But what many of the prosperity-faith teachers fail in that they ignore the historical, biblical, exegetical, and theological context that is at hand for the sake of allegorical interpretation which has been bitterly opposed by many of the early Church fathers during the first and second century. Wrong beliefs carries enormous consequences and we see the rifling effect of its spiritual, emotional, and psychological damage (2 Peter 2:1). To say that being poor is a sin is preposterous, condescending, and disruptive because the poor we are going to always have. The point of the matter is that not everyone is going to drive a roll royce, live in a million dollar home, and live an extravagent lifestyle. Many proponents of the prosperity-faith theology must not give the poor the illusion of a utopian society and opulent lifestyle simply because they follow such "faith formula," but to encourage them in their walk and relationship with their Lord in having a well-balanced faith and lifestyle that glorify the God of the scriptures. I will consider the prosperity-faith theology as having an "socialist" agenda that appears to help the poor masses, but in reality to continue "prostituting" God's people in filling the coffer of teleevangelism. Without the support of the poor giving money into the teleevangelist ministry is to live the life of an "spiritual" vagabond with the Emperor without having any clothes. Also what is so damaging is to appeal to the masses of the poor is for teleevangelist to parade, "Faith bought me this house, bought me this car as if faith is the object of the teleevangelst "faith" or impersonal "god," but in reality it is on the backs of hard-working people that keeps them living such opulent lifestlye. I believe that when the masses "sanction" the financial security of many prosperity teleevangelist we as a Church will witness the moral and spiritual bankruptcy of their own personal lifestyle and ministry's empires. Therefore for Dr. Synan to attack the main-line churches as possessing a "poverty" mentality is an overstatement of the fact. Dr. Synan must give credit where credit is due in that many of the main-line churches of today believes in helping the poor, but not with such ill-advised theology that bears the mark of an misguided faith. Many of the teleevangelist today must give an account to God for misleading His people and the consequences is severe. We as a Church must return to our historical-biblical roots so as to have a faith that is both rich biblically, and practical in lifestlye. In His Service, The Rev. Darryl L.

There are companies all over the world that are managed by families. Just because the press haven't got any satisfaction with the other stories about Bro. Copeland's ministry now of course they go after family. I kind of see this as childish. Just like preschool children having a problem with another child and say "Your Momma". Going after the family to try and get a rise out of somebody they don't like. The media or Grassley couldn't do anything about the "Grassley Six" having airplanes and preaching the true Gospel. They need to get off their (donkey) and find something better to do. Mind spoken. Thank you. God Bless Who better to have work for you than family?
