"more than you would try to get people into YOUR church by going out to the nearest street corner, and telling all who pass by how wicked they are."

But that's what hellfire and damnation preaching was all about. Nowadays, converts are solicited by telling them how sweet Jesus is and how he can make them rich and successful. You've come a long way, Beelzebub.

Notice how Jesus NEVER bashed the 'common folk' over the head with that type of preaching. NEVER. He saved that type of preaching and harsh words strictly for the religious leaders.

That's not Beelzebub, but Robert Tilton and Jimmy Swaggart over on BET doing that.

LOL

The Crouches are a real trip to watch. There is more makeup, wigs, collagen and hair dye.......

Well, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that. "God Bless all those little pygmies....".
