Who knew that Todd Bentley made anointed soaking CD's? We sure didn't and wish we'd never found out.
Below, you will find the description of one of these soaking CD's entitled "Marinating: Pickling in God's Presence" (no joke) as well as one of the tracks from this CD available for preview via YouTube.
We apologize ahead of time. But, we cannot refund the minutes of your life that you will lose as a result of this exhibit.
Here is a vintage video of teller of tall tales and spiritual whoppers, Patricia King. In this episode of her internet video program, Patricia explains how she encountered and defeated a man with a 'werewolf spirt'. If you believe this yarn we have Pacific ocean beachfront property in Utah that we'd like to sell you.
Skip forward to the 8:15 mark to watch the werewolf story.
Can we just go back to historic, Biblical Christianity, please?!? We don't need to hijack Halloween and 'Christianize' it. Well intentioned self-initiated "movements" like this one are short-lived, short-sited and lamely contrived.
The caption from the story reads: A fire-breathing vicar has lit up his Gloucestershire church with a party trick he learnt in order to entertain friends at barbecues.
Ask yourself two simple questions about this:
1. Do we go to church to be entertained by circus tricks?
2. Who alerted the media that this vicar would be performing these tricks on Sunday?
Okay, so we're not exactly sure how to classify this performance. We think that this may be the 'Sacrificial Virgin Dance' portion of the Easter service at Beavercreek Church of the Nazarene in Beavercreek, Ohio. However, we're not 100% certain of that. Our first thought was that they had hired a local stripper to help make the church relevant, but the stripper pole was missing sooooo we had to come up with another theory. Take a look, maybe you can come up with a better theory as to why this was part of an Easter Service. One thing is certain, this has nothing to do with Christianity or Christ's resurrection.
Get ready to have your brain melt...you've been warned...no...really...watching this video could cause serious dame bramage...don't say that you weren't warned.
We're beginning to wonder if Seeker churches are places for people without talent to pretend that they're TV stars so that they can have the pseudo-experience of living out their Hollywood dreams.
One thing is certain, these churches are like a perpetual never ending Jr. High drama production...A VERY EXPENSIVE perpetual never ending Jr. High drama production.
Why do we say they're expensive? Because the cost of admission to these churches is 10% of your gross income (a.k.a. the tithe). Ask yourself this question, if you make $60,000 per year is it worth $6,000 for you to sit through these 3rd rate Jr. high level drama productions followed by a self-help pop-psych pep-talk with 4 to 5 Bible verses ripped from context? Does God really expect you to sacrifice 10% of your income to support this?
Northridge Church in Plymouth, Michigan opened this Sunday's sermon with a bizarre helter skelter rendition of Come Together by the Beatles. This was part of their sermon series entitled "Change Your Game".
This bizarre menagerie of weirdness was supposed to make a point in the sermon. The problem is that Pastor Life Coach Brad Powell springboards from this opening into a twisting of God's word in order to preach a feel good gospel of purpose and significance and scratch the itching ears of his audience.
Televangelist Steve Munsey, who's pushing 60, is encouraging old folks to put on their skinny jeans and kewl graphic t-shirts and be young again for God. This would be funny if it weren't so pathetic.
BTW, Steve isn't pulling it off. He looks like an old dude trying to look like a young dude. His shirt is way to tight and reveals that gravity and age have taken their toll on his old carcass. Epic Fail.
Once again, a Christian Church in an effort to appear relevant attepted to surf the latest pop culture wave and just end up looking stupid (at least the pastor didn't take his shirt off.)
It must be tough making those monthly payments on the church's jet when attendance at Fellowship Church is dropping and more and more exposé stories keep popping up on the local nightly news. But don't worry, if things look like they're about ready to crumble, Ed Young, Jr. can take it to a whole notha' level (or at least that's what he like you to believe).
Sportin' a new sleeve and trying desperately to make it look like he can flash gang signs like the boyz who actually did grow up in the hood, Ed Young, Jr. is now schilling for the heretical Hillsong gang. The only word that comes to mind is D E S P E R A T E . Is this Ed's 'night job'? We wonder what his rapper persona's stage name is. Maybe it's...InAuthentic...or...CoverUp...or...Narcissus.
Here's the way the math rolls on this video.
Old White Pastor + Rapper Costume + New Tattoos ≠ Authentic or Relevant
Old White Pastor + Rapper Costume + New Tattoos = Pathetic
FYI, the scriptures teach that when Jesus Christ returns for His glorious and dreaded second coming it will not be in a pizza sauce bucket. Instead, scripture teaches:
“For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord. Therefore encourage one another with these words.” (1 Thessalonians 4:16–18)
What happens when seminaries abandon the Bible and no longer proclaim and defend the scriptures as the inerrant, authoritative, inspired Word of God? Answer: those same seminaries wander off in to spiritual asininity (Eph. 4:14). Here's a prime example of this from Union Theological Seminary:
"Once honored for voicing substantive theology in the Reformed tradition, Union Theological Seminary’s 2010 Sprunt Lectures will feature a feminist speaker who favors replacing the cross with a lactating breast. The event will occur May 3-5 on the seminary’s Richmond, Va., campus. Union is one of 11 seminaries that are officially related to the Presbyterian Church (USA).
Sprunt Lecturer Margaret R. Miles is emerita professor of Historical Theology at the Graduate Theological Union in Berkley, Calif. Employing a title reminiscent of the denominationally sponsored Re-Imagining God Conference in 1993, Miles’ topic is “Revisioning Historical Theology.”
“Although theologians may have claimed that crucifixion scenes exhibited the extremity of God’s love for humans, it was scenes of the child sucking at the breast that spoke to people on the basis of their earliest experience,” she said. This symbol was replaced by the cross, argued Miles, when patriarchal Western Europeans “secularized the breast. . . . Miles suggested that the cross is inappropriate as a symbol of God’s love because `it presents a violent act as salvific.'”
This isn't Christian doctrine. This is pure whore like spiritual adultery and feminist nonsense!
“For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths.” (2 Timothy 4:3–4)
As for us... We're going to ignore the boobs (pun intended) at Union Theological Seminary and stick with the inspired words of the Apostle Paul who said:
“For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.” (1 Corinthians 2:2)
Ugh...this is what theology and doctrine has downgraded to in the U.S.. How much do you want to bet that there will be thousands of churches in the U.S. singing this 'praise song' on Superbowl Sunday?
Why is it that every random spot that vaguely looks like a human figure is thought to be Jesus Christ or the Virgin Mary? We here at the Museum of Idolatry don't think this water smudge in the Ukraine looks like Jesus. We think it looks a lot more like the Cookie Monster from Sesame Street.
