The five points are summed up in the following accrostic: T - Total Depravity of Man U - Unconditional Election L - Limited Atonement I - Irresistable Grace P - Perseverance of the saints. Unfortunately, the language has changed somewhat over the last four hundred years and the exact phraseology does not always communicate the concepts that clearly. But those are the five points. The other side of the discussion is Arminianism. They tend to deny a couple of points - the total depravity of man (man's inability in and of himself to please God), and Irresistible grace - the fact that he whom God calls will respond. My friend GaryV was an Arminian. But he was in good company. Some of the greatest evangelist were Arminian, for instance the founders of the Methodist church were. I hope to do another article on this soon, but for now , do a search on "Bubba" or "puppies" here on the site and read the articles. The search section is at the top right hand side of this page.

Many many years ago, I traveled in a circle of churches that hosted so-called prophets. Years later after careful biblestudy, I realized ALL of them were FALSE. You're right; Their words and prophetic style do not line up with that exemplified by scriptures. God's blessings are for the righteous not a congregation of sinful believers! When God speaks, He always addresses the SINS of the congregation. That's His focus. After their repentance, then God allows restoration. Today's ministeries are doing the opposite. The people they lead to Christ have no knowledge that they're supposed to "repent" from their sins. 2 Corinthians 7:10 reveals "repentance" leads to salvation. In 2 Peter, believers are told to repent or perish. Amen. Many many years ago, I traveled in a circle of churches that hosted so-called prophets.

I noticed that for "Pastor" Rod's 50th birthday, he is trying to hype it as a jubilee year. He even goes so far as to use the scripture: "And you shall consecrate the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a Jubilee for you; and each of you shall return to his possession, and each of you shall return to his family." Leviticus 25:10 NKJV So, could we possibly interpret that as when Rod turns 50 that he should liberate (and give back) the money he has duped people out of in his previous 49 years? Maybe Rod and the gang's interpretation is that they should continue to liberate the dupes of their money in his 50th year. It's sad how they try to use scripture to fleece the flock.

This bedfellow of the ceo of club newbirth spoke at this organization before they moved into the "big house." He opened his "sermon" with a warning to the audience to "not believe everything you read in newspapers." The local newspaper and a "Christian" magazine had recently published the story of McLiar's recent divorce from his wife, Tami (Tamara (?)---anyway, the mother of his three children. He went on to rant with much pomp of one who had been wronged. (This is a first-hand account as I paraphrase the following monologue.): "God is a God of restoration and reparation. What ever the devil has tried to split asunder, God will put it back together; whatever you have lost, God will restore. He is not a God of partiality. What He has done for me, He will do for any of you. So don't continue to believe man's lies and misinformation you read in print. I've brought with me proof of God's grace: I want you to meet my wife, Priscilla!" ???????????? A gasp went up from the audience as this "cute, young thang" (matching the prototype of most of these pimps' "arm candy") walked to the podium. This was NOT Tami McClendon---the mother of his three children---whom McLiar had led us to believe he was introducing! I immediately thought of Peter's question put to Ananias in Acts 5:1-5: "Why has satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Ghost...." Clarence the liar McClendon, didn't even consider that some in the audience knew the truth or that some were filled with the Holy Ghost and belonged to the Lord Jesus Christ. He and his bedfellows' LACK OF FEAR OF GOD is a constant where ever they spew their venom. It's done with much smoothness and authority as they drag thousands into hell with them. Stupid defenders of these men and women won't be able to blame anyone but themselves for the eternal punishment reserved for following another Jesus, another gospel, another spirit!

This bedfellow of the ceo of club newbirth spoke at this organization before they moved into the “big house.” He opened his “sermon” with a warning to the audience to “not believe everything you read in newspapers.” The local newspaper and a “Christian” magazine had recently published the story of McLiar’s recent divorce from his wife, Tami (Tamara (?)—anyway, the mother of his three children. He went on to rant with much pomp of one who had been wronged. (This is a first-hand account as I paraphrase the following monologue.):

“God is a God of restoration and reparation. What ever the devil has tried to split asunder, God will put it back together; whatever you have lost, God will restore. He is not a God of partiality. What He has done for me, He will do for any of you. So don’t continue to believe man’s lies and misinformation you read in print. I’ve brought with me proof of God’s grace: I want you to meet my wife, Priscilla!” ????????????

A gasp went up from the audience as this “cute, young thang” (matching the prototype of most of these pimps’ “arm candy”) walked to the podium. This was NOT Tami McClendon—the mother of his three children—whom McLiar had led us to believe he was introducing! I immediately thought of Peter’s question put to Ananias in Acts 5:1-5: “Why has satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Ghost….” Clarence the liar McClendon, didn’t even consider that some in the audience knew the truth or that some were filled with the Holy Ghost and belonged to the Lord Jesus Christ. He and his bedfellows’ LACK OF FEAR OF GOD is a constant where ever they spew their venom. It’s done with much smoothness and authority as they drag thousands into hell with them. Stupid defenders of these men and women won’t be able to blame anyone but themselves for the eternal punishment reserved for following another Jesus, another gospel, another spirit!

But Imma beat this horn until everyone understands that I am a (ahem) "prophet". Superbowl Batltimore vs New Orleans or Philly (NFC is totally weak). And.....if Tennessee gets in the playoffs (somehow) through the back door this week....they will shake things up no matter whom they play.

God sends a prophet when the nations are not living right, when the people are sinning and forgot the ways of the Lord or if they were going to war. These guys use the name of the Lord in vain; saying words that God did not speak. From Moses to John the Baptist and Jesus. All warned the people concerning their error.
