THE GREATEST SERMON I NEVER PREACHED!
Today I preached the greatest sermon I never preached!
I preached it not from a pulpit, but from a recliner chair in a chemotherapy clinic!
Read MoreTHE LAVISH LIFESTYLE OF THE #1 ANTI-PROSPERITY GOSPEL PREACHER
For decades, John MacArthur has railed on prosperity preachers, likening them to “greed mongerers” who led First Century cults.
Recently, he’s also taken aim at scandal-plagued evangelical leaders, like the late apologist Ravi Zacharias and former Hillsong Pastor Carl Lentz, saying these celebrities were in ministry only for the money. That’s why “liars and frauds and false teachers” are in business, MacArthur said in a recent sermon. “False teachers always do it for the same reason—filthy lucre, money.”
Yet according to financial statements and tax forms obtained by The Roys Report, John MacArthur and his family preside over a religious media and educational empire that has over $130 million in assets and generates more than $70 million a year in tax-free revenue.

The media is reporting late afternoon today, Monday 3/30/2020, that Dr. Rodney Howard-Browne, Senior Pastor of The River At Tampa Bay, was arrested on charges of unlawful assembly and violating Hillsborough County’s stay-at-home order, posting bail 30 minutes later. More to come.
Read MoreRick Warren Pied Piper to End-Times Babylonian Church
There’s no other way to put it, Rick Warren is on a dangerous path away from sound biblical doctrine toward an ecumenical apostate form of Christianity with Rome that has the potential to lead many astray.
Read MoreThe Jesuit Agenda Behind False Ecumencism
According to Bible prophecy, a one-world religion that will offer the promise of peace throughout the world is going to commence prior to Christ’s return. To most, this global body will seem like a wonderful thing and very possibly will be a pseudo-Christianity (coming in the name of “Christ”); however, contrary to how the masses will view it, it will actually help establish and set up the antichrist and his one- world government.
In order for this to happen, all religions must come together in an ecumenical plan. Today, as part of this Satanic scheme, the evangelical/Protestant church is being drawn seductively into the Roman Catholic church, largely through what we call “The Jesuit Agenda.” Incredibly, while the evidence is obvious to some, the majority of proclaiming Christians are not at all aware it is happening.
SNAP Urges T4G16 Leaders to Dis-Invite C.J. Mahaney
A support group for clergy sex abuse victims is urging organizers of a major religious conference to revoke a speaking invitation to a controversial pastor who has allegedly concealed child sex crimes by at least 15 accused offenders.
Read MoreJoshua Harris Abandons CLC Sinking Ship
Joshua Harris, the senior pastor of Covenant Life Church in Gaithersburg, MD, this past Sunday announced his plans for stepping down in order to attend seminary. Harris is the son-in-law of the controversy-ensconced founder of the church and the network of churches of which CLC was the mother church for 27 years, C.J. Mahaney.
Read More25 Reasons Hyper-Authoritarian Church Leadership IS Disqualifying
In the previous post I indicated my strong disagreement with the conclusions of the group of elders and an overseer who identified themselves as the “investigators” who conducted an investigation into the long train of abuses, misdeeds, and other allegations against the founding senior leader of Mars Hill Church in Seattle, Mark Driscoll. Those men concluded that “While we believe Mark needs to continue to address these areas in his life, we do not believe him to be disqualified from pastoral ministry.” I ended that post by saying that abuse of spiritual authority is one of the most, possibly THE most, egregious affronts in existence to the One who is the Source of all legitimate authority, and that in a follow-up post I would offer 25 reasons why that is so that immediately come to my mind. This post consists of those 25 Reasons.
Read MoreThe Outrageous Claims of Mars Hill Church “Investigators”
God’s people – leaders and laymen alike – need to give heed to the judgments of God that are clearly and undeniably manifesting all around us, and begin to earnestly and thoroughly “Humble (themselves) under the mighty hand of God!” (1 Pet. 5:6) for “God is opposed to the proud but gives His grace to the humble” (1 Pet. 5:5). It is much better for one to humble himself, as Scripture commands, than to refuse and leave it to an angry and avenging God to do the humbling.
Read MoreMark Driscoll, C.J. Mahaney ‘Leadership Styles’ “Not Disqualifying” Says Boards
The Bible is the authoritative Word of God. It tells us what to believe and how to live. It sets down qualifications for pastors. We defy its authority and disobey its teaching when leaders like Driscoll and Mahaney are permitted to be pastors. They are not above reproach. Far from it.
