Emusan:
My Background: I was born and raised up in a White Garment Church which means all my parents including Grand-fathers/mothers are all White Garment Member. Back then I've witnessed how someone in the spirit does act and perform different miracles but to me THEN it's nonsense or I count it as nothing just as some people see it as gebrish today.

How I was Baptized by Holy Spirit: On that fateful day around 12:00AM, I was alone in my room and I was praying and my door was locked. Suddenly, I begin to feel the presence of a PERSON in my room walking towards me with a kind of FORCE (mind you my door was locked and no sound of any door opened). So as the Person is moving closed to me I started speaking in tongue but as something I'm experienced for the first time, I got scared and I stood up. I know that someone entered my room and I speak in tongue this keeps me perplexed for a whole night. This event happened after I finished my secondary school and I left my home town also worshipping in another Church.

This same thing happened 3years later the same way but I didn't scared that much this time. I can't narrate the whole experience here but I was baptised with Holy spirit twice without anybody laying hand on me.

NOTE: The reason why I started with my background is to let you know that I was once among those people who didn't believe in speaking in tongues despite the fact that I see it happened with even miracles but as God's grace found me, Holy spirit visited me by Himself to strengthen my faith because if not for those two visit I might be among those jumping from one thread to another today to abuse God and argue about His nonexistence.

This ERROR (so-called Baptism of the Holy Ghost) is so much the vogue in Nigeria the writers are unaware what they are describing here as baptism of the Holy Ghost is actually demon possession!

This erroneous and wicked teaching arose from the occultic movement of Azusa Street. This has now given rise to satanic churches and ministries founded on the psychic teachings of Christian Science, Religious Science and name-it-and-claim-it doctrines of the Word of Faith, Prosperity and Dominion ministers.

The site will help you get the correct definition of the phrase now turned way beyond anything anyone can find in the Bible.

The Christianity of Word of Faith and Prosperity Doctrine is fake: religious ideas emanating from it are mostly satanic.

The notion of the Baptism of the Holy Ghost being discussed here is one of them.


I recommend the following article titled The Beautiful Side Of Evil for a start: www.thetruechristianfaith.com/2016/12/06/the-beautiful-side-of-evil/

God2man:
Check your BIBLE an example of Paul the Apostle commanding the Elymar the sorcerer to go blind for a season. Act of Apostle Chapter 13 verses 8-11. Read those verses.

Unbelief is a demon.

While Paul was doing deliverance service, too?

Chidi is a fake pastor.

There is no example of any Apostle of Christ or any other preacher striking anyone with blindness in the course of a deliverance service in the Bible.

What we are having here is an example of demons putting up a show in order to deceive.

Pastor Chidi is not a Christian. Like the typical Pentecostal pastor, Chidi is an occultist masquerading as someone else

It's important you know what true Christianity is.

All this poster posted here is occultism. There is no example of it in the Bible. He is deceived and deceiving other people.


Visit www.thetruechristianfaith.com so you might have an idea of what the Bible teaches on true Christianity.


The OP is mixing spiritual ideas from non-Biblical, pagan sources with Christianity.

Such prayers confirm that the church has NOTHING to do with the Jesus Christ of the Bible: you cannot espouse what your Leader abhor except you serve another master. The 'churches' are occult organizations set up by Satan to deceive.

The problem is the organisers know they could not be successful if they correctly label their religion by their beliefs.

Sadly that is what we have in most 'churches' in Nigeria claiming to be 'Christian'.

You might save yourself from the large-scale deceit going on in Nigeria in the name of Christianity.

If the pastor is a servant of the Lord Jesus Christ of the Bible, you can correct him. "But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy". James 3:17. He will see it as trying to help him, yourself and the church.

If he is a businessman in charge of his investment, he won't take it kindly.

www.thetruechristianfaith.com has helpful materials and articles on how you can know who is serving the Lord Jesus Christ of the Bible and who is a servant of the other master.

Whoever is teaching this is a servant of the devil: God's power cannot be put in a bottle.

All these 'signs and wonders' are a show put together by the Devil to deceive people so they may not know who the Lord Jesus Christ truly is.

www.thetruechristianfaith.com/2016/09/10/the-truth-is-worse-than-you-can-imagine/ has far more on these deceptive satanic shows.

These Hindu and Buddhist gurus and magic-men are more truthful than the 'signs and wonders' charlatans we have in Nigeria: they don't call themselves Christian.

You should thank God for waking you up on the cult of evil in Prosperity/Word of Faith and Dominion churches. The CE is just a normal example of the rut of the evil. Check www.thetruechristianfaith.com. You should get materials that will help you in knowing the true God and Saviour Jesus Christ.

“But if they were not tithers, the bar would lock up. Red and blue lights would start going (up). Cro…cro…cro…The siren would go up and a voice would go up, “Tie them”! Once we got them together, we line them up and pass up Uzzi (machine guns) to the ushers. We line up all those non-tithing members…and, at the count of 3 jesus we shoot them all dead and we take them out (by) the side door there and have a big hole and bury them there and go and have church and have the anointing!” Creflo Dollar


“The law is this. Here is the law in the kingdom of God: harvest responds only to seeds, not to prayer! Harvest responds only to seed, not to prayer; not to fasting; or any kind of position you have. Harvest responds only to seed. Say that loud, “Harvest responds only to seed”! Harvest responds only to seed, not prayer! Not fasting! Not tithes! Seed!

Until the seed is sown, the harvest is not in view! Until the seed is sown, the harvest is not in view! God is not permitted to bring increase until man has committed himself to sowing seeds! God is not permitted! Heaven does not have permission!” Creflo Dollar

“ Your tithe is your covenant connector. I’m telling you that all the promises that God ever gave you, you cannot get them without being connected to them through the tithes. I’m telling you the only way you can get hooked up to healing is through the tithe. I’m telling you the only way to get hooked up to prosperity, deliverance or any promise in the word of God is through the tithe!” Creflo Dollar

“Jesus came as a man. And, at age 30 God was now getting ready to demonstrate to us and gave us an example of what a man with anointing can do.” Creflo Dollar

“About two Christians having sex. That’s different from the world. When I begin to see this it..it..blows me out. You see, the Bible said if you’ve done it unto the least of my brethren, then you’ve done it unto me! And so when two Christians who are both members of the body of Christ decide to engage in the sexual activity, then what you’re really doing is you’re having sex with jesus. For what you’ve done for the least of my brethren, you’ve done it unto me. You’re having sex with jesus. You’re having sex with jesus.” Creflo Dollar

“I’m not going to go to heaven to be broke when I get there.” Creflo Dollar

“What I have to prove to you today is that Jesus grew into the sonship and Jesus as a result of having to grow into the sonship did not come into the Earth perfect. Listen to those lines..did not come into the Earth perfect. I’m going to say it one more time: Jesus did not come to the Earth perfect!...Now he grew into perfection; but he was not born into perfection! And what we got to understand is that not only did he not come here perfect, he did not come here as God!” Creflo Dollar.

“My own attitude now should be that I have equality with God.” Creflo Dollar talking with Kenneth Copeland.

“Here is a thing we’ve got to get hold of: nothing just happens. You sit there and keep your mouth closed and break what Psalm 119:72 calls ‘the Law of the Mouth’. The Bible says ‘the Law of the Mouth’ is better than silver and gold. Why? Because that’s how we make it. We got to begin to understand that the way I make my living is with what comes out of my mouth…Every day of my life I get up, and I declare certain things because I got to call those things that be not as though they were. If I’m not saying anything, I’m not creating anything!” Creflo Dollar.

Certain Men Crept In Unawares

“For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ”. Jude 1:4

“But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.

And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not”. 2 Pe 2:1-3


“And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness”. 2 Th 2:10-12

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven

Rom 1:18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
Rom 1:19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
Rom 1:20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
Rom 1:21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
Rom 1:22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
Rom 1:23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
Rom 1:24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
Rom 1:25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
Rom 1:26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
Rom 1:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
Rom 1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
Rom 1:29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
Rom 1:30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
Rom 1:31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
Rom 1:32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

What, Really, Is Wrong With Nigerian Pentecostalism? A Brief Look At William Kumuyi And His Deeper Life Bible Church


1Jn 2:27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abides in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teaches you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.

Jer 31:31 Behold, the days come, says the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
Jer 31:32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, says the LORD:
Jer 31:33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, says the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
Jer 31:34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, says the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.

Jer 17:9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?


Heb 8:8 For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, says the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:
Heb 8:9 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, says the Lord.
Heb 8:10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:
Heb 8:11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.
Heb 8:12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.
Heb 8:13 In that he says, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decays and waxes old is ready to vanish away.

Joh 6:45 It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me.

Isa 54:13 And all thy children shall be taught of the LORD; and great shall be the peace of thy children.

Joh 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

Eze 36:25 Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.
Eze 36:26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
Eze 36:27 And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.

------------------
My prayer for everyone that comes across this post is that God will have mercy on you. I pray you will see this post for what it really is: an attempt to make you examine, by the Spirit of the Lord Jesus Christ, what you hold in your hands: is it a faith sanctioned by God’s Spirit or a set of futile attempts at pleasing God?

The Human Heart And The True Christian Faith

Not many people realize that the ‘Christianity’ of William Kumuyi and that of David Oyedepo are essentially the same. They both originate from the same source and preach virtually the same teachings: the little differences are in the approach. They both preach the ‘gospel’ of what you must do to procure things from God. They both originate from Azusa Street and teach essentially a gospel of works: you must do this, you must do that to earn the favour of God. Mr Kumuyi emphasizes the external: what dress you must wear, how you must walk, what you must never eat or drink and what speech mannerism you must adopt. Mr Oyedepo speaks about how important your observance of good time and asset management principles are to the success of your life. To him, you must never forget to speak your success, health and wealth into existence otherwise you won’t get any: there is really no God anywhere infinitely powerful and good looking after your well-being! You must use your mouth to pull the good into yourself: you must use the same mouth to ward off evil!

While sprinkling in the name of Jesus, Mr Kumuyi’s main grouse is your appearance: if you are neat, tidy, genteel and you do no obvious sins, you are on your way to heaven! You must do all these while never failing to remind your neighbours how differently holy you are from them.



A Gospel Of Grace?

Grace, what grace? Who needs grace when you can do it yourself! The Deeper Christian Life Ministry does not preach the gospel of grace. Its is on how you conduct yourself. As Isaiah would put it, it is about rules upon rules: a little here; a little there: Isa 28:10 “For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:

Isa 28:11 For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people.
Isa 28:12 To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear.
Isa 28:13 But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken”.

Mr William Kumuyi -and the Deeper Life Bible Church - does not preach the gospel of FAITH IN THE LORD JESUS CHRIST. He preaches the gospel of works: we would get to heaven if we faithfully observe some rules delicately laid out by the ‘man of God’! As a true derivative of Azusa Street fake Pentecostal Holiness Movement, the physical is the thing. The Deeper Life is unaware of the centrality God gives the heart of man and its incurable evil in true Christian theology. When last did you hear Mr Kumuyi truthfully preach on Jeremiah 17:9 or the various other passages featured in this post? How do you expect him to justify his teachings while clearly quoting the Lord Jesus Christ in John 14:26 :”But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you and John 6:45 It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me”? What does he say on 1 John 2:27 and Hebrews 8:8-13 while teaching his followers the intricate dimensions of the turban their females must wear? By disregarding the centrality of the heart of man and its incurable evil, Mr Kumuyi minimizes the importance of the Work of the Messiah. This leads him to the error of thinking the problem of man is mere ignorance. According to this view, men only need to spend enough time under the tutelage of good mentors or ‘men of God’.

The Deeper Life And The NAR

You begin to get the clue the Deeper Christian Life Ministry is an intrinsic arm of the Azusa Street heresy by its belief in the New Apostolic Reformation. Check its website and see the prominence it gives the authority of the late fake ‘Chairman’ of the College of New Apostles, Peter C Wagner.

What is the New Apostolic Reformation about? The era of Peter, John, Matthew, Paul and their companions is gone: there is now a new set of Apostles on the loose, and, of course, with a new set of divine revelations not necessarily confirmable by looking into the ‘old, archaic ’ writings in the Bible! Obviously to the new ‘Apostles’, the Revelation 22:18-19 warnings against adding to, or deleting from, the concluded Bible does not apply! The teachings of the doctrines of the NAR by the Deeper Christian Life Ministry is a conclusive proof of the identity of the spirit behind Mr Kumuyi’s work: a good tree does not bear a poisonous fruit.

A Short-Hand Code

Apart from the beliefs that the Bible is not comprehensive enough or too dated for life in the modern time(ever heard of the so-called, 'divine revelation knowledge' or 'word of knowledge'?), one other short-hand code we can safely use for churches and ministries that come from Azusa Street is the unbiblical doctrine that all truly born again people must have another ‘baptism of the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in tongues’. Readers will discover this is one other doctrine that connects such seemingly disparate ministers as Kenneth Hagin, Chris Oyakhilome, Fred Price, Kenneth Copeland, Charles Capps, David Oyedepo, Enock Adeboye and William Kumuyi. You will discover this connection between Charles Parham’s ‘Apostolic Faith’ and its daughter ‘churches’ and ministries. We have published quite a few materials on the blatantly satanic nature and practices of this belief to warrant a repeat here. We can safely state that everyone should be on guard once he reads or hears this short-hand code in a church or ministry: you cannot affirm and preach things the Bible forbids without having problems with your ideas of God, Sin and Redemption, and, consequently, the Person and Work of the Holy Spirit.

The Organization And The Goal

At times one good way to gauge the goal of an organization is to look at the structure of the body itself. The Nigerian Pentecostal ministries all generally have this in common: their main goal is the financial well-being of their biological families. Is it not intriguing to you that more than four decades after the formation of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry, no other name apart from Kumuyi is ever published by the group? That is to say after more than 40 years of tutorship, no one in the group has been found good enough to be trusted to teach or lead or exercise any serious clout in the management of the ‘Christian’ body if his last name is not Kumuyi. Can you imagine Peter or John naming their wives and children the main, and possibly the only, registered trustees in their ministries?

The New Testament has clearly defined structure of the leadership and management of a true Christian body. Part of this is found in Mat 23:8-10 “But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.
Mat 23:9 And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.
Mat 23:10 Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ”.

The unwillingness or inability of Mr Kumuyi to follow this simple guideline instead of his preference for the Catholic Pope model should be a pointer to his antecedents, beliefs and goals. And just as some medieval popes installed their offspring as their successors, he is grooming his sons to take over the leadership of the ministry upon his death. And, why not? Godliness and righteousness run in their blue blood!

The Percentage of Good, The Percentage of Poison

Are we saying the Nigerian Pentecostal Movement and the Deeper Christian Life Ministry in particular have not done some good in the society? Not really. The issue is the percentage of poison that kills. In the spiritual sphere that percentage is very small indeed, if the distortion of the nature of the heart of man and the minimization of the Work of the Messiah can ever be deemed small.

The Offence Of The Gospel

You know what the Bible calls the offence of the gospel? It is that there is nothing we can do by ourselves to impress God and earn His mercies. We can never be good enough to earn His favour or do His Will by ourselves. We cannot be knowledgeable or sacrificial enough. If we could, he would not have needed to come down and pay for our sins. Please go back to the passages quoted at the start of this article. They are all about God forgiving us of our sins, changing our hearts, writing His laws in our minds, giving us the fear of Himself, guiding our lives. Those are not dependent on how erudite we are or how many hours we have spent in a school learning righteousness. They do not depend on the use of our mouths to call in the good or ward off the evil from us. They depend only on our confidence in the completed Work of the Saviour.

For our proud and deceptive hearts, that is not a small achievement.

In Their Own Words…Fake Gospel In The Mouths Of Fake Pastors


Some readers wonder why we have been so stridently harsh on Word of Faith, Dominion and Prosperity preachers. Why do we say these people are not servants of the Lord Jesus Christ? On the basis of what do we insist these preachers do not even know God; why do we say they are not even Christians at all?



[size=17pt]The Bible has the answer:[/size] [size=16pt]what they say with their own mouths! [/size]“To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them”. Isaiah 8:20

If a preacher’s opinion differs from what is written in the GOOD BOOK, you must concede he is actuated and inspired by a different spirit: God's Holy Spirit never, ever, contradicts what is written in the Bible, even when speaking through a person who got truly born again less than 24 hours earlier.

We bring to you[b] a very small sample[/b] of statements and teachings by these preachers. If you have any reason to doubt what the Bible says about any of the statements pick up your Bible. In any case, you must check your Bible anytime you see any of the preachers calling out any Bible passage: more often than not you will discover what he is saying is different from the text in your Bible.

I recommend everyone listens to the audio of these speeches right from the mouths of the speakers. Open the internet YouTube links at the end of the post, and, preferably save them into your system. You may need to hear them many times.

"One of the strangest experiences I had a few years ago visiting Aimee's tomb in California... this Thursday am on TBN; Friday am going to visit Kuhlman's tomb. It's close by Aimee's tomb in Forest Lawn Cemetery. I've been there once... I never forget when I saw Aimee's tomb. It was incredibly dramatic. It has seven-foot angels bowing in front of the tomb, with a gold chain around it. As incredible as it is that someone will die and angels bowing around it, I felt a terrific anointing when I was there. I trembled when I visited Aimee's tomb...The men with me...I was shaking. I was trembling... I said, dear God, I feel the anointing." Benny Hinn on one of his numerous visits to the tombs of the much married Aimee Semple Mcpherson and Miss Kathryn Kuhlman for 'anointing'.

THE BIBLE'S ANSWER TO THIS?

There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch,
Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer.
For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee. Deu 18:10-12




And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead. Luk 16:31

Benny Hinn, the Word of Faith, NAR, Dominion and Pentecostal people say these Bible passages do not apply to them: they now freely receive messages from the dead. These messages are now passed to their members as 'divine revelation knowledge'.

“My own attitude now should be that I have equality with God.” Creflo Dollar talking with Kenneth Copeland.

THE BIBLE'S ANSWER TO THIS?


O LORD, there is none like thee, neither is there any God beside thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears. 1 Ch 17:20


Forasmuch as there is none like unto thee, O LORD; thou art great, and thy name is great in might.
Who would not fear thee, O King of nations? for to thee doth it appertain: forasmuch as among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their kingdoms, there is none like unto thee. Jer 10:6-7

But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him. Luk 12:5

“He [God] opens up that union of the very god-head and brings us into it!” Paul Crouch, Founder TBN, Praise The Lord Broadcast November 15, 1990.

THE BIBLE'S ANSWER TO THIS?

This is blasphemy. There are only Three in the god-head: The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit. No human or angel is in it. This is Lucifer's original Sin: Ezek 28:12-18 and Isa 14:12.

No, Mr Crouch. You were a man; He is God. The god-head has never been opened to you.

THE BIBLE'S ANSWER TO THIS?

This is blasphemy.
"You turn things upside down, as if the potter were thought to be like the clay! Shall what is formed say to him who formed it, "He did not make me"? Can the pot say of the potter, "He knows nothing"?" Isa 29:16

There are serious presumptions, if not madness, for the clay to claim it is the same as the Potter!


[size=20pt]Quote:[/size]

“You are as much the incarnation of God as Jesus Christ was.” Kenneth Hagin, Word of Faith (December 1980). P.14.

THE BIBLE'S ANSWER TO THIS?

This is blasphemy. There has been only ONE incarnation of God in the history of the universe. And He is none other than the Lord Jesus Christ. Hagin is drawing his gullible readers into the great evil of belittling both God the Father and His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ.

Were you also virgin-born?

[size=20pt]Quote:[/size]

“You don’t have a god in you. You are one!” Kenneth Copeland, Believer’s Voice of Victory.

THE BIBLE'S ANSWER TO THIS?

This is blasphemy. Being filled with the Holy Spirit does not make a God of anyone and no one truly born by the Spirit of God ever made such statements. John never said it, Peter never did. But since these people are filled with the spirit of error, they can say and write anything. This is evil. There is only one God in the universe and you are not Him.

Copeland is setting you up for destruction.

“You've got to say it. You've got to speak it. You've got to declare it. You decree the thing; you pay your vow and…He brings it to pass!” Paul Crouch on TBN.

THE BIBLE'S ANSWER TO THIS?

This is a doctrine of devils. Only occultic people claim this sort of power. Godly people only pray, intercede and supplicate to the God of heaven.

1 Tim 2:1 "I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men"
KJV
Who is he that saith, and it cometh to pass, when the Lord commandeth it not? Lam 3:37

“Give $10 and receive $1,000; give $10,000 and receive $100,000..” Gloria Copeland, God’s Will Is Prosperity, P.54.

THE BIBLE'S ANSWER TO THIS?

This is the sin of simony.

"But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money". Act 8:20

God's favour and mercies can only be got by tendering the Blood and the Name of His Son, Jesus Christ. That is the meaning of Christianity. True Christians get not only forgiveness of their sins through the shed Blood of the Son of God, they get all their physical and financial blessings through the same means. Anyone preaching any other thing is preaching another gospel. God pronounced curses on all such people:


Gloria Copeland, like millions of other Word of Faith preachers, think they can sell God's favour.

[size=20pt]Quote:[/size]

“I’ll say this with all respects so that it don’t upset you too much but I’ll say it any way. When I read in the Bible where it says, "I AM", I just smile and say, I am, too!” Kenneth Copeland.

Kenneth Copeland is also "I am"? We shall see where that "I am" will be in the next 40 years.


[size=20pt]Quote:[/size]


“He (Adam) was not a little like God. He was not almost like God. He was not ..ehn.. subordinate to God, even!” Kenneth Copeland.

THE BIBLE'S ANSWER TO THIS?

Really? Adam not subordinate to God, even? This is blasphemy. Clearly Kenneth Copeland believes he is not subordinate to God. The Bible has a very different opinion: God is longsuffering and does not want even him to be lost. But His mercy has limits. He could decide to wield His sword any moment.


Do you see where this pride is headed?

“It gets in your mind: it’s going to end up coming out of your mouth. And words have creative power, do you understand that? God said ‘Let there be light!’ and His words were so powerful because He’s totally holy, totally pure…

When we speak faith-filled words, it goes into the spiritual realm and begins to create and pull out (of) that realm we don’t see the things that we desire into this realm where we can see them!” Pastor Joyce Meyer.

THE BIBLE'S ANSWER TO THIS?

This is pure witchcraft Joyce Meyer.

“It takes word to do miracle!” Bishop David Oyedepo Sermon March 2015 Redeemed Lagos Convention.

THE BIBLE'S ANSWER TO THIS?

This teaching is not supported by the Bible. Only God's words and incantations from occult people do miracles.

"Who is he that saith, and it cometh to pass, when the Lord commandeth it not?" Lam 3:37.



[size=20pt]Quote:[/size]


“Let me tell you the truth; the only reason we still take offerings at all is because that’s the only way to get you out of poverty!” Pastor Enock Adeboye Sermon, 2015 Redeemed Convention, Lagos-Ibadan Express Way, Nigeria.

THE BIBLE'S ANSWER TO THIS?

This is a version of the seed-faith doctrine of Oral Roberts. It sounds good (seductive) but it is not biblical. In fact it is an anti-christ doctrine. It makes men remove their gaze from the Lord Jesus Christ to their own offerings.

You can even see Pastor Adeboye asking people to hoist their offerings up to God and remind Him of their giving it! No one who has adequate fear of God would do that. All godly men and women in the Bible looked down on whatever gift, including their own lives, they ever brought to the God of heaven.

1 Ch 29:11 "Thine, O LORD, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is thine; thine is the kingdom, O LORD, and thou art exalted as head above all"

Pastor Adeboye may look all too simple and respectable. But since he teaches gross errors and heresies against the Lord Jesus Christ and companies and approves those that do same, you must make up your mind who you will trust: the God of the Bible or pastor Adeboye.


God's solution to poverty is the proclamation of the true gospel of His Son, not tithes and offerings.

"The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the gospel preached to them". Mat 11:5


[size=20pt]Quote:[/size]


“I decree a miracle! I declare a blessing! I speak it into existence without intimidation! Touch somebody and say, ‘Manifest!’” Bishop T D Jakes.

THE BIBLE'S ANSWER TO THIS?

All Jakes' decrees and declarations are unbiblical and, hence, demonic. Only God speaks anything into existence.

You can shout and declare 'Manifest!', all you care, even a trillion times; nothing will show up except hypnotic bodily contortions, and, possibly, demonic apparitions.

No decrees or rebellious declarations can be made to the God of heaven. He doesn't take orders from Jakes or anyone else, for that matter.


[size=20pt]Quote:[/size]


“That’s what it says in Romans 4:17, we have to call the things that are not as if they already are. That means you may not feel well, but you should not go around and say, ‘Oh, my back’s been hurting me for years; I 'm getting so old I don’t feel I’m going to get any better. You just spoke defeat into your life…You’re going to get what you call in!” Pastor Joel Osteen.

THE BIBLE'S ANSWER TO THIS?

This teaching is not supported by the Bible. Only God speaks anything into existence. Joel Osteen is teaching devils' doctrine. "You’re going to get what you call in" makes a god out of your mouth. This flows directly from the errors of Word of Faith and Pentecostalism: the mouth, not God, determines your fate!

Read Romans 4:17: "(As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were".

It is God, not any 'we', that 'calleth those things which be not as though they were'. Joel Osteen is inserting himself and his audience as part of God.


[size=20pt]Quote:[/size]


“Here is a thing we’ve got to get hold of: nothing just happens. You sit there and keep your mouth closed and break what Psalm 119:72 calls ‘the Law of the Mouth’. The Bible says ‘the Law of the Mouth’ is better than silver and gold. Why? Because that’s how we make it. We got to begin to understand that the way I make my living is with what comes out of my mouth…Every day of my life I get up, and I declare certain things because I got to call those things that be not as though they were. If I’m not saying anything, I’m not creating anything!” Creflo Dollar.

THE BIBLE'S ANSWER TO THIS?

Please open your Bible to Psalm 119.72. Creflo Dollar is quoting a verse that does not exist. There is nothing like ‘the Law of the Mouth’ in the verse or anywhere else in the Bible. Check it up. The correct verse is ‘the Law of thy Mouth’, God's Mouth. Creflo Dollar is twisting the Bible to support a Satanic teaching.



Did you notice that phrase, "I got to call those things that be not as though they were"? That is a deliberate misquotation of Romans 4:17 we dealt with earlier from Joel Osteen.

“What did I say? I say Jesus was not born spiritually perfect. He was not born spiritually perfect , complete or mature!” Fred Price Sr.

THE BIBLE'S ANSWER TO THIS?



The Bible from the old to the New Testament proclaims Jesus as God. Or how else do you interpret Isaiah 9:6 where the Son to be born was described as, 'The Mighty God' and 'Everlasting Father' and John 1:1-3 where He is called both the, 'Word', and, 'God'? Open and read Jn 1:1-4, 14, 10, 8:24, Mal 3:1, Is 9:6, Lk 1:35, Eph 3: 9,Col 1:16, Heb 13:8.

Fred Price is speaking of another jesus, not the One described in the Bible.



[size=20pt]Quote:[/size]


“What I have to prove to you today is that Jesus grew into the sonship and Jesus as a result of having to grow into the sonship did not come into the Earth perfect. Listen to those lines..did not come into the Earth perfect. I’m going to say it one more time: Jesus did not come to the Earth perfect!...Now he grew into perfection; but he was not born into perfection! And what we got to understand is that not only did he not come here perfect, he did not come here as God!” Creflo Dollar.

THE BIBLE'S ANSWER TO THIS?



Please read carefully John 8:24: "I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins'.

The Lord Jesus Christ said if we do not believe He is the I AM of Exodus 3:14 we shall die in our sins.

Creflo Dollar and Word of Faith preachers do not believe Jesus Christ was and is God. Their teachings are basically the same as those of the Jehovah's Witnesses and the Mormons.

The Word of Faith is an anti-Christ cult: you only need to hear clearly what they are saying.



[size=20pt]Quote:[/size]


“God, the Father, can not do anything in this Earth realm without permission!” Fred Price Sr.

THE BIBLE'S ANSWER TO THIS?

Price is not talking of the God of the Bible. Price does not know Him.

"Whatsoever the LORD pleased, that did he in heaven, and in earth, in the seas, and all deep places". Psa 135:6

[size=20pt]Quote:[/size]



“Jesus overcame and absolutely destroyed Satan but he did it in your and my name…I want you to know this. I want you to note it down. I want you to know that heaven has it written down that you defeated the devil; that you tore down his kingdom; that you stamped over him and put down your foot on him (stamping his feet)… on his neck. You are the one that did it! You are the one that did it!” Kenneth Copeland Sermon, Redeemed 2016 North American Convention.

THE BIBLE'S ANSWER TO THIS?

It is the Name of the Lord, not ours, that conquered the devil and procures blessing to His people.

John 14:13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
John 14:14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.

Only the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ saves and He did the conquering only in His and God's Name.

"The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe". Pro 18:10

"For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved". Rom 10:13

Kenneth Copeland is only setting his audience up to be devoured by the devil.

In spite of all the titles, Myles Monroe never knew the true God. He believed and taught a lie till he died.

[size=28pt]Is Your Pastor Connected To The Jesus Of The Bible?
[/size]
This must be a pointless question to most readers. Some will even take immediate offense at the temerity of the writer even asking questions such as this. Yet the truth is most pastors, churches and fellowships have nothing to do with the Jesus of the Bible. You should care to know what the Bible itself says about most of the teachings you hear in the various churches and fellowships today.

{Warning: always check up every Bible reference you see here, preferably with the King James Version of the Bible}.

There are serious efforts being made to ensure you do not know the real Jesus of the Bible. Most of the people who make these efforts are deceived themselves. They think they are serving the Lord Jesus Christ but He does not know most of them. A few are thoroughly misled, not knowing the origin of what they affirm or the implications of their teachings. Some of them are too busy ‘doing the work of God’ to be bothered on who originated the things they teach. The younger generations now think the ‘signs and wonders’ churches in their neighbourhoods are Christian, when, in fact, the Lord Jesus Christ sees them as centers of evil.

[size=24pt][b]
How Come?[/b][/size]

Sometime between 1901 and 1913 the devil made his move to take over the church of Christ. He recruited two ministers – one white, the other black - for the job. Through the ministries of Charles Parham and William Seymour, a group of psychics, hypnotists and occult practitioners started a movement to take over the church. They said they have acquired the New Testament’s ability to speak in tongues.

Since they knew the ‘tongues’ of the New Testament were real, unlearned, earthly languages the speaker suddenly and fluently starts speaking without going through any schooling for them, they thought this was the gift they too had just received.

Please note I did not say a group of born again people. These ones gathered in Azusa Street, Los Angeles, were made up of psychics, spiritists, mediums, hypnotists and those who communicated with the dead. Parham and Seymour were pastors; but they were pastors of the Aladura kind - white-garment, spiritualist pastors. These pastors, together with other people who openly consulted with familiar spirits, clairvoyants and mediums, founded the Movement they named Pentecostal or New Apostolic Reformation (NAR).

The real Christians of those days such as R .A. Torrey, G. C. Morgan , Clarence Larkin and H. Ironside called them, “Satan’s preachers, jugglers, necromancers, enchanters, magicians, and all sorts of mendicants (beggars),” and Satan’s “last vomit”. This is the group that birthed the current Movement we have in much of the world today, particularly Nigeria, preaching the following doctrines:

1 Tongues, that are NOT languages;
2 Being ‘slain in the spirit’ where people roll on the floor barely conscious of their surroundings;
3 Impartation of the spirit as if God’s Spirit can be given to anyone by simply touching him;
4 Teaching that Christians are gods;
5 Teaching that Christians cannot be poor or be sick;
6 Teaching that people generally, not necessarily only Christians, have some sort of spiritual power in their mouths, like God, to command anything they want into existence;
7 Teaching that Jesus died, not to ensure believers are forgiven their sins, but to enable believers take over dominion of the world;
8 Teaching that when Jesus said, “It is finished!” on the cross, it wasn’t finished at all; we are saved only after Jesus was adequately punished in hell: His blood shed on the cross was not enough to pay for our sins!

It is the teachings of this group, without the white garments, that are now dressed up as the gospel in the Pentecostal, Charismatic, Word Of Faith and Dominion Churches and fellowships.

[size=15pt]Denial Of Jesus As God[/size]

They teach all these while affirming that Jesus Christ was a mere man while He walked the earth. Their teachings clearly deny that He was, is and always will be God. The Bible is very clear on this (Jn 1:14, 10, 8:24, Mal 3:1, Is 9:6, Lk 1:35, Eph 3: 9,Col 1:16, Heb 13:8 and very many others). They teach He was a man like the rest of us: the only difference being that He learned, mastered and applied spiritual principles we all can also master and apply. Kenneth Copeland, their current world-wide spiritual leader, flatly denies Jesus is the only begotten Son of God! He says dying on the cross was so ordinary, he, Copeland, could very well have done it!
[size=20pt]
‘Decree A Thing And It Shall Be Established’[/size]

Does the Bible indeed teach men can decree a thing and it shall be established as we are now being told by these preachers? Yes if we do not read God’s reaction to the man who said that statement in the first instance. No if we hear what God said. If we read Job 22:28 and stop there, we get a false picture to support a set of satanic doctrines.

Why do I say these teachers’ affirmative quotation of Job 22:28 is satanic? Because God in Job 42:7-8 said He was angry enough to destroy the speaker, Eliphaz, for saying what he said in Job 22:28. These teachers now assert this error as if it has been approved by God.

[size=20pt]Power of Life And Death In The Mouth[/size]

Does the Bible in Proverbs 18:21 teach that there is some sort of hidden spiritual power in our mouths that can bring either life or death to us as we speak them? The Word of Faith and Prosperity preachers on TBN, DayStar, Dunamis and Faith channels and most of our fellowship teachers think so. But is that what the Bible passage says? Yes if we disregard simple English grammar. Otherwise, you will quickly discover the passage is only on the need to control your tongue; not letting anger, pride or careless talk ruin your life. You will soon see this is the theme of most of the teachings of the chapter before and also the one after chapter 18 of Proverbs.

Most of these preachers, such as Paul Yongi cho, Kenneth Hagin, Fred Price, Joyce Meyer, Norman Vincent Peale, Robert Schuller, Joel Osteen and Kenneth Copeland and their Nigerian outposts, teach that we do not even need to have anything to do with the Jesus Christ of the Bible in order to exercise those special spiritual principles. They say Buddhists and others do better with the principles than even their ‘Christian’ church members. Sadly the foregoing, or slight variants of it, is what is taught in most of our ‘churches’ in Nigeria today. Sadly these, generally, are what students in secondary and tertiary schools - and seminaries - are being taught in the various ‘Christian’ Fellowships such as (FCS) and (NIFES), too.

Like typical workers of the devil, these teachers would rather fight if anyone asks them to justify the basis of their teachings and beliefs.

[size=20pt]The Truth, The Churches And The Devil[/size]

Because many of the teachers and patrons and matrons of these Fellowships are either deceived or ignorant, they do not want their followers to know these teachings are not supported by the Bible. They do not want you to know that ancient Christians such as Peter, Paul, Matthew, John, Luke, Silas, John Bunyan (who wrote The Pilgrim’s Progress), D L Moody, R A Torrey, Charles Spurgeon and millions of other saints never spoke any of these non-language so-called ‘tongue’, either privately or when they preach. They do not want you to know the Lord Jesus Christ never spoke in tongues. They do not want you to know - or even suspect the possibility - that the Tongues and Pentecostal Movement did not originate from God’s Holy Spirit.

This must be surprising to you, if not shocking. It should be alarming to the vast majority of people, particularly those who call these ‘churches’ and fellowships theirs. The non-language, non-intelligible ‘tongues’ are spoken only by Hindus, spiritists, Aladuras and occult people, NEVER by truly born again Christians. That is the truth the Bible supports.

[size=20pt]What, Then, Is True Christianity?[/size]

Real Christianity is about you, your sins and a Divine Person who only can pay for sins against a holy God. If God had the power and the right to create and sustain the universe, He had the right to spell out the rules for those living in it. He regards every offense on any of those rules(when we lie, cheat, slander, defame, covet, steal, kill etc) as personal affronts against Himself and He will bring every transgressor into judgment and punishment. The only way out is for a sinless, holy Person to accept to pay for the sins. The only One who ever fit that bill is Jesus Christ. Born without a human father, the Bible said He was God, even when He walked the Earth on two feet. His main purpose for coming was to pay the price of sins for men and reconcile them back to God, the Father. Jesus forgives everyone that truly comes to Him in repentance and faith in His sacrificial death. He is alive and He answers prayers.

He did not come to ensure Christians gain dominion of the Earth, God never lost His ownership, or even control, of His property. He did not die so we may be successful, popular and or healthy: those are teachings of demons. He came only to save people from their sins and take away God’s anger against them because of their sins. That is more important than all the positions, money, wealth and successes of this world. Even if a person lived to be 150 years, he will still die. What happens if you die tonight?

[size=20pt]What Can A Person Do?[/size]

If you are not very sure you have actually met the true Lord Jesus Christ of the Bible, go to a private place and ask Him to forgive you your sins and come take over your life as Lord and Saviour. Do this only if you are really serious about God and your sins. If you are not, He can’t be deceived. If your Christianity is that of ‘name it and claim it’, in most probability you have been introduced to a fake Jesus: you are holding to a fake gospel. And a fake Jesus with a fake gospel does not save. Call the One of the Bible and ask Him to forgive you of your sins and take over your life by His Spirit. Renounce all the lies of fake tongues.

If you have [size=20pt]ever lost consciousness [/size]in any of those ‘services’ in the past, ask the Lord Jesus Christ to remove any demons normally in-planted in people when they are ‘slain in the spirit’, from you.

Guard your heart very well. Do not allow any one to deceive you. Jesus warned us over and over to be on guard against deception. Check Matthew 24: 3-5, 11,23-25, 1 Timothy 4: 1-2, 1 John 4:1-2.

If a preacher says he speaks in tongue, ask him if the tongue he speaks is like the one in Acts 2:8-11 i.e, an intelligent, normal language someone, somewhere on Earth speaks in his day-to-day living. Reject him once he says, No, whoever he is and however holy he appears. He is working for the devil whether he accepts it or not. Do not allow anyone use his ‘experience’ to nullify the word of God written clearly in the Bible. If by doing this you will not get any preacher, better for you. Paul said the Bible alone was enough to show Timothy the way of Salvation.
If anyone says he acquired the ability as ‘the second definite work of the Holy Spirit’ after his conversion, ask him to show you where any of the Apostles spoke in non-language, non-intelligible gibberish in the Bible.

Ask him to show you where in the Bible Paul or Peter or John or any other of the Apostles ministered in such ‘tongue’ in the Bible.
If a preacher teaches about seed faith, ask him to show you in the Bible where seed and faith were ever used together for money we give to God. Ask him to show you in the New Testament where it says God can be induced by our gifts of money or wealth rather than our presentment of the Blood of His Son.

Miracles apart - since the Bible itself says servants of Pharaoh changed sticks into snakes – when a pastor asks you to pray that your enemy, “falls down and die”, ask him to show you where that is taught in the New Testament.

Ask your teacher to show you where in the Bible Paul or Peter or John was ministering and people, Christians and non-Christians alike, started falling down on their faces, saying they were being ‘slain in the spirit’.

If he tells you his tongue is a language of angels, ask him to show you an example of a place where angels spoke to people in the Bible and no one understood what the angel said.

Whether he knows it or not, he is insulting God if he says his unintelligible ‘tongue’ is a ‘heavenly language’. That is saying God uses languages of demons.

The Lord Jesus Christ said the main feature of the last days would be deception, spiritual deception.

People would be deceived about themselves (who really they themselves are before God), about Him (Jesus Christ), about God the Father, about the Holy Spirit and about the Devil. You are living in that day.

[size=24pt][b]The Assignment [/size][/b]

This paper is brought to you in order to let you know the work of the devil in preventing you from knowing the true Lord Jesus Christ of the Bible. Read it and invite your friends to it.

{Crosscheck everything you read here with your Bible, preferably the King James Version}.

There are serious efforts being made to ensure you do not know the real Jesus of the Bible. Most of the people who make these efforts are deceived themselves. They think they are serving the Lord Jesus Christ but He does not know most of them. A few are thoroughly misled, not knowing the origin of what they affirm or the implications of their teachings. Some of them are too busy ‘doing the work of God’ to be bothered on who originated the things they teach the children. The younger generations now think the ‘signs and wonders’ churches in their neighbourhoods are Christian, when, in fact, they are not.

[size=24pt]How Did These Come About?[/size]

Sometime between 1901 and 1913 the devil made a bold move to take over the church of Christ. Through the ministries of Charles Parham and William Seymour, a group of psychics, hypnotists and occult practitioners started a movement to take over the church. They said they have acquired the New Testament’s ability to speak in tongues.

Since they knew the ‘tongues’ of the New Testament were real, unlearned earthly languages the speaker suddenly and fluently starts speaking without going through any schooling for it, they thought this was the gift they too had just received.

Please note I did not say a group of born again people. These ones were psychics, spiritists, mediums, hypnotists and those who communicated with the dead. Parham and Seymour were pastors; but they were pastors of the Aladura kind - white-garment, spiritualist pastors. These pastors, together with other people who openly consulted with familiar spirits, clairvoyants and mediums, founded the Movement they named Pentecostal or New Apostolic Reformation (NAR).

The real Christians of those days such as R .A. Torrey, G. C. Morgan , Clarence Larkin and H. Ironside called them “ Satan’s preachers, jugglers, necromancers, enchanters, magicians, and all sorts of mendicants (beggars),” and Satan’s “last vomit”. This is the group that birthed the current Movement we have in much of the world today, particularly Nigeria, preaching the following doctrines:

1 Tongues, that are NOT languages;

2 Being ‘slain in the spirit’ where people roll on the floor barely conscious of their surroundings;

3 Impartation of the spirit as if God’s Spirit can be given to anyone by simply touching him;

4 Teaching that Christians are gods;

5 Teaching that Christians cannot be poor or be sick;

6 Teaching that people generally, not necessarily only Christians, have some sort of spiritual power in their mouths, like God, to command anything they want into existence;

7 Teaching that Jesus died, not to ensure believers are forgiven their sins, but to enable believers take over dominion of the world;

8 Teaching that when Jesus said, “It is finished!” on the cross, it wasn’t finished at all; we are saved only after Jesus was adequately punished in hell: His blood shed on the cross was not enough to pay for our sins!

[size=24pt]Denial Of Jesus As God[/size]

They teach all these while affirming that Jesus Christ was a mere man while He walked the earth. Their teachings clearly deny that He was, is and always will be God. The Bible is very clear on this (Jn 1:14, 10, 8:24, Mal 3:1, Is 9:6, Lk 1:35, Eph 3: 9,Col 1:16, Heb 13:8 and very many others). They teach He was a man like the rest of us: the only difference being that He learned, mastered and applied spiritual principles we all can also master and apply. Kenneth Copeland even denied Jesus is the only begotten Son of God!

[size=24pt]‘Decree A Thing And It Shall Be Established’[/size]

Does the Bible indeed teach men can decree a thing and it shall be established as we are now being told by these preachers? Yes if we do not read God’s reaction to the man who said that statement in the first instance. No if we hear what God said. If we read Job 22:28 and stop there, we get a false picture to support a set of satanic doctrines.

Why do I say these teachers’ affirmative quotation of Job 22:28 is satanic? Because God in Job 42:7-8 said He was angry enough to destroy the speaker, Eliphaz, for saying what he said in Job 22:28. These teachers now assert this error as if it has been approved by God.

[size=24pt]Power of Life And Death In The Mouth[/size]

Does the Bible in Proverbs 18:21 teach that there is some sort of hidden spiritual power in our mouths that can bring either life or death to us as we speak them? The Word of Faith and Prosperity preachers on TBN, DayStar and Faith channels and some of our fellowship teachers think so. But is that what the Bible passage says? Yes if we disregard simple English grammar. Otherwise, you will quickly discover the passage is only on the need to control your tongue; not letting anger, pride or careless talk ruin your life. You will soon see this is the theme of most of the teachings of the chapter before and also the one after chapter 18 of Proverbs.

Most of these preachers, such as Paul Yongi cho, Kenneth Hagin, Fred Price, Joyce Meyer, Norman Vincent Peale, Robert Schuller, Joel Osteen and Kenneth Copeland, teach that we do not even need to have anything to do with the Jesus Christ of the Bible in order to exercise those special spiritual principles. They say Buddhists and others do better with the principles than even their ‘Christian’ church members. Sadly the foregoing, or slight variants of it, is what is taught in most of our ‘churches’ in Nigeria today. Sadly these, generally, are what students in secondary and tertiary schools are being taught in the various ‘Christian’ Fellowships such as (FCS) and (NIFES), too.
Instead of some of our teachers to read carefully what God said about these teachings and take corrections, they are angry once anyone asks them to use the Bible to justify their beliefs.

[size=24pt]The Truth, The Fellowships And The Devil[/size]

Because many of the teachers and patrons and matrons of these Fellowships are either deceived or ignorant, they do not want the students to know these teachings are not supported by the Bible. They do not want you to know that ancient Christians such as Peter, Paul, Matthew, John, Luke, Silas, John Bunyan (who wrote The Pilgrim’s Progress), D L Moody, R A Torrey, Charles Spurgeon and millions of other saints never spoke any of these non-language so-called ‘tongue’, either privately or when they preach. They do not want you to know the Lord Jesus Christ never spoke in tongues and that the tongues and Pentecostal movement did not originate from His Spirit.
This must be surprising to you, if not shocking. But that is the truth the Bible supports. The non-language ‘tongues’ are spoken only by Hindus, spiritists, Aladuras and occult people, NEVER by truly born again Christians.

[size=26pt]The Bible predicted these people would come. Here they are! The sad thing is they are the faces of Christianity in much of the world today. Nigeria is crawling with thousands of their types in most towns, cities and villages. We are in the last days. We must take into account the prophesies of the Lord Jesus Christ and the writings of the Apostles in the Epistles:

"For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. Behold, I have told you before". Mat 24:25

"Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity". Mat 7:22-23

"And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many". Mat 24:11

"For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ". Jud 1:4

"But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived". 2Ti 3:13

"Now the Spirit speaks expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;" 1Ti 4:1-2

You need to know you are not being deceived by one of them.
