2 John 1:9-11 Whoever transgresses and does not abide in the doctrine of Christ does not have God. He who abides in the doctrine of Christ has both the Father and the Son. If anyone comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into your house nor greet him; for he who greets him shares in his evil deeds.

How can we do what the scriptures says without judging or discerning?

Here is what scripture says NOT to judge:
We don’t judge the person Romans 14:10 
We don’t judge by appearance John 7:24, Isaiah 11:1-3 
We don’t judge their motives Isaiah 11:1-3 
We don’t judge from our opinions John 12:47-48 We don’t judge those outside the church. 1 Corinthians 5:9-13 

We DO judge their FRUIT Matthew 7:15-23. Fruit does not mean how many people attend their church, how much money they can bring in (steal), how many times they are on TV. It means, Do they stick to the Word of God at all times? Do they deliver the message of repentance and Christ only as our Savior? Do they confront the evil in this world with the truth? When is the last time you have heard a message from either of these people on sin, repentance and the Grace of God. 

Some of this content comes from a class that is going on at our church right now on discernment. The leadership of the church realized too many people did not realize it is commanded of God to discern/judge those who say they speak in His name. Some were even falling to some of these false teachers.

Rw, I pray that you will study what the word says on judging the spirits and what our responsebility is to sound the warning. 

God Bless.</description>

		<description>Mel,

The sheeple NEVER use scripture.  If they do it's the usual misquoted drivel to justify the Pocket Picking Pimps.  

Wait!  PocketPickingPimps.org 

I think I just may have created your sister site.  Hmmmm! Let me see if it's available.

		<description>you know what? i think it's great Paula goes on the Tyra show. i think it's great Jake goes on Dr. Phil. in the end God shall seperate the wheat from the tares. 

for these people to come from behind their pulpits and hit the streets is wonderful . and if bishop jakes was here you know what he would say? "God prepareth a place for me in the precense of my enemies, keep on talkin!" lol

&lt;strong&gt;(MN: &lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;The only trouble, rw, is that when they were in the presence of what I assume is their enemies, THEY NEVER MENTIONED GOD.  When Doctor Phil says you're wired to be homosexual, T. Dexter doesn't say anything. &lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt; 

these people know that they have critics. they know critics are good. it enhances your daily self examination process. you do have one of those don't you? lol 
i mean come on saints we don't sit and judge and criticize, hop from one vicious circle of imperfect people (let us tell it) and expose their nakedness without sitting under God's microscope so that we can be told what needs to be  fixed in us. do we? of course not!

&lt;strong&gt;(MN:&lt;/strong&gt;  &lt;em&gt;rw, what you just said makes little or no sense.  Please try again.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

"I made this posting before. However, there is a difference this time around. If you click on the book’s image, the link will take you to the book on Amazon.com. In other words, if you are interested in the book, you can buy it, easily and effortlessly. And if you buy it through this site, I will get a bit of a small commission. That commission will either begin help pay for the site or help pay for my new SR22, which ever comes first. The SR22 is only $250K, standard."


Are you serious, NOT YOU! You must have a little pimp in you too. Don't by the books people, Melvin is a pimp, he is just trying to get his 20cent commission to go toward the upbuilding of his stupid self-serving, character defaming website. BEWARE of the disgruntled pimp!!!

&lt;strong&gt;(MN: &lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;Eddie G, you're wrong.  I'm not trying to get the twenty cents to go toward my stupid self-serving , character defaming website.  I'm trying to raise money for to get me a &lt;a href="http://www.cirrusdesign.com/sr22turbo/" rel="nofollow"&gt;fully pimped SR22&lt;/a&gt;.  The price of the plane is approximately $450,000.  And I want to take delivery of the aircraft in a debt free position.  If you want to contribute some money, send it to:

Get Melvin a Cirrus Ministry
23465 Anathema Lane
Bowie, MD 20718 

But remember:  In God we trust.  All others pay with cash, certified check, or money order. &lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;

I couldn't let that one slide. So long, that was the last of my wasted moments.</description>

		<description>mrs. mav, I like to pretend that Kettering is the name of a stream that runs next to the Mausoleum. Museum and memorial.  Actually, it's just the name of census designated place (CDP) that the church is built in.</description>

		<description>How do you know how close anyone is to John Jenkins? I have been a member of Hilliard's church for years and have heard nothing about him. &lt;strong&gt;(MN:&lt;/strong&gt;  &lt;em&gt;Hmmm.  It seems Donnie H. isn't telling ya'll where he goes at night. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt; How do you generalize based on your assumption of someone's proximity to another person?  &lt;strong&gt;(MN:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt; I'm not generalizing.  I speaking of those things that have actually happened.  The fact that you don't know about them doesn't change anything.  For example, I remember Donnie H. visiting one weekend.  He had a Benz and there was a little flaw with the trimming.  He parked it near John's slot for a few minutes.  &lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;

Truth is, Hilliard is a good guy, you are wrong about him and the fact that you don't know any of these people personally nor have you sat down to talk with them, is reason enough for you to keep their names and faces off of this site. Your issue is with John Jenkins, deal with him, leave everyone else alone.

&lt;strong&gt;(MN:&lt;/strong&gt;  &lt;em&gt;I used to attend FBCG(otK).  And the first time I heard of Donnie H. was there.  During that time, John K. Jenkins had Donnie H. in as a speaker and as a revival leader.  They were friends.  Since I left, he appeared in the same capacity.  At the grand opening of the Mausoleum, Museum and Memorial (that $55 million dollar building John had built) Donnie H. attended and left what, according to John, was a hefty check.  You can hear the exchange on the Wednesday night celebration.  The date is September 23, 2007, the evening worship.  Donnie H. was there and said wonderful things about John K. Jenkins.  Oh, and I did sit down with John on several occasions.  And each time he used the worthless say "We just interpret it differently.  And I've been pastoring for twenty five years.  

My issue is not with John, Cashflow, or any of the others.  My issue is with the things they teach and the sheeple they take damage.  Incidentally, I did in fact get to know John K. Jenkins.  He has the depth of a cookie sheet.  He's also quite arrogant - despite his sheeples' claims to the contrary.    

But again, the only things I put out here about the pimps is the stuff they teach and the things they do.  By the way, you still haven't addressed the issue of Donnie H. becoming an EXECUTIVE life coach, selling tickets at $175 a pop and hawking his paintings at the events.  What about what I have said is wrong?  &lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

		<description>LOL...I must have hit a nerve. &lt;strong&gt;(MN:&lt;/strong&gt;  &lt;em&gt;LOL as well.  Not at all.  I always take advantage of an opportunity to go over the facts when it presents itself.  You sound like a new reader and your questions and assumptions provided just such a opportunity.  If you look through the postings and comments, you will see that the response is pretty standard for me. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt; Yes, I also spend devotional time with my wife. In fact, personal devotion time is vital to the Christian walk, devotion as husband and wife are vital to the marriage. While you are watching your wife grow in her understanding of Hebrews, what does she watch you grow in your understanding of? Or do you feel the need to grow, my estimation is that you feel you have already arrived.  &lt;strong&gt;(MN:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt; I don't think anyone who visits this site would come to that conclusion.&lt;/em&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;

Unfortunately, you have me mistaken, my church doesn't breed a bunch of Sunday only saints. That's the problem you run into when you generalize everyone with a large church because your little feelings were hurt by John Jenkins.  I am so sorry he hurt you little buddy.

&lt;strong&gt;(MN: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt; And I'm sorry you still don't get it "little buddy."  It's not safe to generalize absolutely since there are exceptions to every rule.  But I do not believe I have been inaccurate in my estimation of the general spiritual life of the members of large churches of the ilk of FBCG, the Ecumenical Cathedral and Club New Birth.  The fact that your pastor has a close tie with John and other like him says a lot about Donnie H.  &lt;/em&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt; 

I hope it doesn't take your wife another three years to decide to submit to the head of her household.  &lt;strong&gt;(MN:&lt;/strong&gt;  &lt;em&gt;Me too.  But if it does, then such is the will of God.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt; All your bible study and devotion time with her and John Jenkins teaching still has a stronger grip on her than you do. It's sad that your house is divided like that.  &lt;strong&gt;(MN:&lt;/strong&gt;  &lt;em&gt;It's even sadder that John has made it clear that he is more interested in a personal apology than the unity of my household.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt; How can she be so committed to a person and an institution you hate so much? Interesting.  &lt;strong&gt;(MN:&lt;/strong&gt;  &lt;em&gt;I think it's quite interesting as well.  But primarily I see it as an opportunity for me to learn to deal with her as the weaker vessel [take a look at some of the previous comments], and for me to grow in understanding.  As I have said often in previous postings, originally, as I was growing, I washed her with the water of the Word.  Unfortunately it was a high pressure hose.  We are now recovering from that huge mistake on my part.  But of course, you would know this if you had read previous posting and not simply make assumptions and try to take little digs - while sounding pious. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;

Thank you for your prayers! I appreciate them. Hey, don't discredit the prayers of the Donnie H. saints, perhaps they will be valuable since your prayers have you on a three year waiting list for your wife to agree with you.  &lt;strong&gt;(MN:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt; Abraham waited twenty-five.  No one ever responded to Jeremiah.  And God never gave Paul what he was asking for.  I am, it would appear, in very good company.  Besides, surely you don't believe the time frame of answer to  prayers has anything to do with the effectualness of the prayers.  I trust you understand that prayers are answered as they conform to the will of God. &lt;/em&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

If you look through the postings and comments, you will see that the response is pretty standard for me. </em><strong>)</strong> Yes, I also spend devotional time with my wife. In fact, personal devotion time is vital to the Christian walk, devotion as husband and wife are vital to the marriage. While you are watching your wife grow in her understanding of Hebrews, what does she watch you grow in your understanding of? Or do you feel the need to grow, my estimation is that you feel you have already arrived.  <strong>(MN:</strong> <em> I don&#8217;t think anyone who visits this site would come to that conclusion.</em>  <strong>)</strong></p>
<p>Unfortunately, you have me mistaken, my church doesn&#8217;t breed a bunch of Sunday only saints. That&#8217;s the problem you run into when you generalize everyone with a large church because your little feelings were hurt by John Jenkins.  I am so sorry he hurt you little buddy.</p>
<p><strong>(MN: </strong><em> And I&#8217;m sorry you still don&#8217;t get it &#8220;little buddy.&#8221;  It&#8217;s not safe to generalize absolutely since there are exceptions to every rule.  But I do not believe I have been inaccurate in my estimation of the general spiritual life of the members of large churches of the ilk of FBCG, the Ecumenical Cathedral and Club New Birth.  The fact that your pastor has a close tie with John and other like him says a lot about Donnie H.  </em>  <strong>)</strong> </p>
<p>I hope it doesn&#8217;t take your wife another three years to decide to submit to the head of her household.  <strong>(MN:</strong>  <em>Me too.  But if it does, then such is the will of God.</em> <strong>)</strong> All your bible study and devotion time with her and John Jenkins teaching still has a stronger grip on her than you do. It&#8217;s sad that your house is divided like that.  <strong>(MN:</strong>  <em>It&#8217;s even sadder that John has made it clear that he is more interested in a personal apology than the unity of my household.</em> <strong>)</strong> How can she be so committed to a person and an institution you hate so much? Interesting.  <strong>(MN:</strong>  <em>I think it&#8217;s quite interesting as well.  But primarily I see it as an opportunity for me to learn to deal with her as the weaker vessel [take a look at some of the previous comments], and for me to grow in understanding.  As I have said often in previous postings, originally, as I was growing, I washed her with the water of the Word.  Unfortunately it was a high pressure hose.  We are now recovering from that huge mistake on my part.  But of course, you would know this if you had read previous posting and not simply make assumptions and try to take little digs - while sounding pious. </em><strong>)</strong></p>
<p>Thank you for your prayers! I appreciate them. Hey, don&#8217;t discredit the prayers of the Donnie H. saints, perhaps they will be valuable since your prayers have you on a three year waiting list for your wife to agree with you.  <strong>(MN:</strong> <em> Abraham waited twenty-five.  No one ever responded to Jeremiah.  And God never gave Paul what he was asking for.  I am, it would appear, in very good company.  Besides, surely you don&#8217;t believe the time frame of answer to  prayers has anything to do with the effectualness of the prayers.  I trust you understand that prayers are answered as they conform to the will of God. </em>  <strong>)</strong></p>

		<description>In response to number nine of your list of the things John Jenkins did to you. Is the real issue that you thought your wife liked him more than she liked you?  (MN:  Jenkins didn't do anything to me.  And no, the real issue isn't that my wife likes John Jenkins more than she likes me.  The real issue is that John, knowing my wife will consider what he says, refused to counsel her as he admitted he should. I don't expect any better out of him, and I can only fault myself for not having trained my wife better - in fact for even taking us to the church to begin with. John is a pimp and he  exercises the same control over most of the women in that church that pimps exercise over their stable.  After some nine years, I can see my wife's understanding of what she is doing increasing.  We have discussions about leaving FBCG(otK) and she actually talks about why she is there.  If all goes well, she should be out of there within the next couple or three years.  At least that is my prayer.  &lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;  

Perhaps that is something for you to examine as well. your wife wasn't even in agreement with what you had done. I guess if I was standing out there on a limb and not even my wife was with me, I would be bitter too. 
&lt;strong&gt;
(MN:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt; I'm not bitter.  And I wasn't standing on a limb.  I AM, however, standing on the Rock.  Consider Luke 14:24 - 26 

&lt;blockquote&gt;If anyone come after Me and does not hate his own father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brothers and sisters, yes even his own life, he cannot be My disciple.  Who ever does not carry his own cross and come after Me cannot be My disciple.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

  or even Matthew 10:34-36 which says: 

&lt;blockquote&gt; Do not think that I came to bring peace on the earth.  I did not come to bring peace but a sword.  For a came to set a man against his father and a daughter against her mother and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.  And a man's enemies will be those of his own household.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

As much as I love my wife, I will not put our relationship ahead of the truth.  As much as I love her, I will not allow her to set the direction the household goes if that direction is contrary to Jesus Christ.  John, and his friends like Donnie H preach doctrine and support people who preach doctrine that contrary to Jesus Christ.  You can talk all you want about healing and bitterness and lots of other stuff, but the bottom line is Christ and Him crucified, not Christ, Him suffering in hell, and my emotions as guide.  

I suggest you look at how well you are leading your family in the truth.  The wife and I now have daily devotion.  In fact, we are finishing up on Hebrews.  We don't use anything developed or pushed by John.  We depend on my efforts at study.  And watching her develop in her understanding of Hebrews (we've also gone over Jude, the three letters form John and James) has been really encouraging.  When she does go to FBCG(otK) she now comes home and we go over the sermon John presented.    

So what are you doing to wash your wife in the water of the Word?  Or do you just go with her to church service every Sunday and turn to your neighbor and say [fill in the blank]?  Instead of that, I am selecting Bible verses - the two I just quoted for instance - for us to memorize together after we go over the meaning, implications, and applications of the verses..  And she is doing an incredible job of it.  She even beat me getting one memorized.&lt;/em&gt;  &lt;strong&gt; )&lt;/strong&gt; 

Thank God for the marriage counseling I got from the counseling center at Donnie H's "Church of more power and money" I learned that a house divided can't stand.   

&lt;strong&gt;(MN: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt; And I thank God for the counseling I got at the hand of John Jenkins and the other counselors there as well. It gave me great insight into who these people are.  I learned from the Bible that the house must be built on a solid foundation since a house built on false doctrine can't stand.  And if I do my job right, with God's blessing she will see people like John and Donnie H as mere spewers of religious cotton candy.  &lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt; 

I will pray healing for your marriage too. In fact, I will submit a prayer request on our website for you. 

&lt;strong&gt;(MN:  &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;My wife and I will pray for you since we don't need someone to pray for someone for us and are quite capable of doing so ourselves. &lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt; </description>

		<description>I am not covering anything. The mere fact that you don't think you need healing, especially after your very emotional response to my post, says that you do.
&lt;strong&gt;
(MN:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt; Dude, the comment wasn't emotional.  It recounted the facts.  I think you may be the one suffering from an overabundance of emotion.  Deal with the facts. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;

 I am not trying to cover John Jenkins, I have never met him nor have I ever heard him preach. &lt;strong&gt;(MN: &lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;Then I suggest you listen to him before you try to psycho analyze me.  Perhaps there is a basis for the things I say. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;) &lt;/strong&gt;In fact all that I know of his church, I read on this website. I am simply saying that I hope the Lord would heal YOU and that you would have peace.  That didn't have anything to do with Bishop Jakes, John Jenkins or anyone else. &lt;strong&gt; (MN:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt; I have peace.  Being obedient to Christ tends to bring peace.  You seem to think that speaking out against something means a person doesn't have peace.  I'm not sure where you got that idea from.  And if you'll remember, his association with Jakes is one of the reasons I left.&lt;/em&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;

LOL...I have to ask, have you ever wacked your little toe? When you did, was that John Jenkins fault too? &lt;strong&gt;(MN:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt; Yes.  He was hiding in my closet and turned the light off, making me bump my toe on my furniture.  HAven't I blamed him for everything? &lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;) &lt;/strong&gt;Perhaps you are the one that should stop with the emotional attempts to use Jenkins as a smoke screen for your own issues.  &lt;strong&gt;(MN: &lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;What issues am I smokescreening? &lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;(MN:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;By the way, if you are going to comment, please put a tag in the "Name" block.  That way I differentiate you from all the other nameless anonymii.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;

		<description>So there we have it, you do think you have the ultimate say on "truth".  &lt;strong&gt;(MN:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt; I don't think I have the ultimate say on the truth.  However, I can say Jesus did not suffer in hell for our sins.  I can say God did not use faith to create the universe and other absolute truths. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;  Perhaps you could invest your energy in something like evangelism, building up the body of Christ and sharing the Gospel in the manner in which you feel the Lord has called and led you to. &lt;em&gt;(MN:&lt;/em&gt;  &lt;em&gt;I do all of those things now.  The Gospel is occassionally presented here, though it's not the primary purpose of the site.  I build up the Body of Christ by presenting the truth to Christians.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;  Differences of approach and opinion are common to the Christian faith, from the beginning. Differences are not good enough reason to discredit the validity of another or to create a website that provides a platform for destructive conversation about other people.  &lt;strong&gt;(MN: &lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;The things we discuss are simply "differences."&lt;/em&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;

I do pray God's peace for you and that wherever and however you were wounded by Pastor Jenkins or the First Baptist Church, the Lord would begin to heal you completely. 


&lt;strong&gt;(MN:&lt;/strong&gt;  &lt;em&gt;Since you bring it up, I now have the opportunity to review the occurences.  They are as follows:

1.  John began dragging the church into a Word of Faith environment both in his preaching and in the people he associated with and brought into the church to speak. 

2.  John took up T. Dexter Jakes as his "mentor"

3.  John began preaching that our sins were not paid for on the cross but were paid for by Jesus suffering in hell.  

4.  When I talked to John K. Jenkins about what he began preaching, he confirmed he was saying exactly that - our sins were paid for by His suffering in hell, not by His death on the cross.  He was actually quite proud of the teaching.  He then spent the next couple or three months in an inept attempt to defend the teaching.  

5.  Given that he began preaching a different gospel [suffering in hell vs death on the cross] I obeyed Scripture and walked away from the church.  I distributed a flyer to the members of the class I was teaching to let them know I was leaving and why I was leaving.  I wanted to make sure the facts for my leaving were known and documented.  

6.  My wife chose to stay - more interested in relationships and familiarity than doctrine

7.  I asked John K. Jenkins if he thought my wife should leave FBCG(otK) and he replied "Yes, I think she should."

8.  I asked if he would cousel her to leave FBCG(otK) and come with me.  He said "No, I will not counsel her to do this."  

9.  Later, when I spoke to him with the pastor of a church I attended, we again asked him if he would cousel my wife to leave.  This time, he said he would cousel her to leave if I apoplogized, that is if I apologized for letting folks know why I left.  At that point he reversed himself and was apparently more interested in pressuring me to back off my stand and willing to attempt to blackmail me with my wife.  

If you think any of his behavior is proper, I want you to identify them and provide some kind of justification for that judgment.  Otherwise, please spare me the very useless attempt at justifying his behavior. 

The bottom line:  I am not in need of healing.  However, John K. Jenkins is in need of repentance.  &lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;


Church hurt is deep, which is apparent by the vigor with which you go after him and those connected to him. May the peace of God be yours, may joy, wholeness and everything you are in need of be extended to you through the grace and mercy of God.

&lt;strong&gt;(MN:&lt;/strong&gt;  &lt;em&gt;Again, address the issues.  Does he associate with oneness people and bring them into preach?  Does he associate with WoF folks and bring them in to preach?  Does he preach that you can't teach yourself about the Bible?  

Please stop with the emotional attempts at covering his behavior and abberant teachings.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;

Farewell...</description>

		<description>You are wrong "Anonymous" ... some of the information I learned from this website was &lt;i&gt;&lt;strong&gt;the&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; deciding factor in why &lt;i&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; left my local pimp church and stopped giving to my television pimpette of choice at the time (Joyce Meyer) ... The Lord has used this site &lt;i&gt;tremendously&lt;/i&gt; in teaching me the truth about those who would've otherwise led me to hell!

By the way, why is it that so many pimp defenders hide behind the name "Anonymous?" ... it's not like anyone would &lt;i&gt;know&lt;/i&gt; who you are any more than you know who &lt;i&gt;I&lt;/i&gt; am with a name like BooBoo's Dad!!!!  The Lord doesn't give you a "spirit of fear" ... so why are you &lt;i&gt;afraid???&lt;/i&gt;</description>

		<description>You did. "...they still have more supporters than you do and their churches are still growing." To me that came across as measuring success in terms of the number of people. 

Maybe you do not realize it but we are in a battle. Not only are we called to be children of God, but also to be soliders of God. We are to fight the advances of satan and help people to see their sin, repent, and accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior (the GOSPEL). Anytime someone trys to add to the Gospel we should point it out and warn people against it. 

There is the idea out there that to love each other in the church we are to never point out errors. I have grown in my years as a Christain, because people were willing to talk to me about errors I was making. Studying God's word has been critical in keeping me on track. So, why does it cause discord to point out men and women who have built churches on false teachings and are leading people down the wide path?</description>

		<description>Who said that large numbers are the measure of success? I mentioned that no one is leaving their ministries as a result of this website as evidence that this website is worthless, hater babble.

Bottom line is, when it is all said and done, if these preachers are wrong, they will have to answer to God. you will also have to answer to God for the discord you have planted concerning them.

&lt;strong&gt;(MN: &lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;But if they are wrong, should we warn people to be stay away from these people?  Or are you saying we should have unity even at the cost of the truth? &lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

		<description>Too Chicken....

Remember these verses when you measure success from the number of people:

"Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it." Matthew 7:13-14

I do not think that large numbers of people automatically quailify a ministery as being from God. By the way these verses appear right before Jesus warns of false teachers. Many will be mislead in the end and these false teachers are taking them there.</description>

		<description>My question is, what is your agenda? What is it that you intend to accomplish and by what are you measuring yoru progress? I mean, no matter how much you complain and stalk their websites to capture what their words, they still have more supporters than you do and their churches are still growing. 

I am certainly nowhere near taking the stance of a kicked puppy, just simply trying to see what your goal is and where it fits into God's agenda. The agenda you claim to have the greatest understanding of.

&lt;strong&gt;(MN:&lt;/strong&gt;  &lt;em&gt;I'm sorry - where have I claimed to have such a great knowledge of God's agenda.  As far as what I hope to accomplish, take a look at the "Why This Site" link.  Oh, and the number of people who turn from the pimps is not my business.  My "job" is to warn them, and you, and thus remove your excuse for staying with the pimps.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

		<description>Wow! What an edifying website. I read through your comments and find it very interesting that on a website where you claim to know the "truth" and have such a handle on what Christian leaders should be doing and how they should conduct themselves in every manner, this particular post has managed to talk about everything from calling my father a pimp, to talking about the size of his forehead. 

&lt;strong&gt;(MN:&lt;/strong&gt;  &lt;em&gt;Welcome Donnie's son/daughter.  Glad to have you here. &lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt; 

I am saddened that you have nothing better to do with your life and gifting than to create discord and defile the names and reputations of other people.&lt;strong&gt;  (MN: &lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;I don't defile the reputations of other people.  I quote their public words for all to see.  If their public words are defiling, why in the world are they saying them?  And why in the world are you defending them?&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt; Since you have such malice toward Christian leaders, what is your take on discord among Christians at large? 

&lt;strong&gt;(MN: &lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;First, a correction.  I don't have malice toward Christian leaders.  I have malice toward Christian leaders who pimp the sheeple.  I have no idea what your question means.  Are you asking me to give you my opinion of why there is discord among those who name the name of Christ? &lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;

Do you feel that your name slinging is serving the purpose of God in the earth? If so, more power to you, if you feel that you are impacting the world and you can sleep at night, that's great. &lt;strong&gt; (MN:&lt;/strong&gt;  &lt;em&gt;What, exactly, is name slinging?  Is that similar to mud slinging? &lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;

Just remember that while you are dragging people's names through the mud on the internet, they have families, children, and even "Sheeple" who love them. &lt;strong&gt; (MN: &lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;Yes.  And it's those sheeple we are trying to warn about them.  &lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;  How would you feel if your children were exposed to your face on some stupid website led by a very opinionated person who is probably just angry that their passion in life yielded them minimal success and for that reason, their envy for those who have happiness keep them swaddling in misery?

&lt;strong&gt;(MN:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt; I'd feel fine about it.  My children would be able and willing to defend my actions, my behavior and my conclusions.  How about you?  Do you want to defend the folks your dad hangs with?  Or how about the deal with charging folks $175 for so-called mentoring?  Does it bother you that he associates on such a close basis with John K. Jenkins, the pastor of First Baptist Church of Glenarden on the Kettering?  Or are you going to play the kicked puppy who can only respond emotionally?  I suspect, from the tone of your comment, it will be the latter. &lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;</description>
