Are the sins of Paula White the same sins committed by this one? Is that the reason for the avoidance of condemnation here? Inquiring minds want to know.
Good points.
I have worked much harder, been in prison more frequently, been flogged more severely, and been exposed to death again and again. Five times I received from the Jews the forty lashes minus one. Three times I was beaten with rods, once I was pelted with stones, three times I was shipwrecked, I spent a night and a day in the open sea, I have been constantly on the move. I have been in danger from rivers, in danger from bandits, in danger from my fellow Jews, in danger from Gentiles; in danger in the city, in danger in the country, in danger at sea; and in danger from false believers. I have labored and toiled and have often gone without sleep; I have known hunger and thirst and have often gone without food; I have been cold and naked. Besides everything else, I face daily the pressure of my concern for all the churches. Who is weak, and I do not feel weak? Who is led into sin, and I do not inwardly burn?
--Paul of Tarsus, II Cor. 11
"[Bishop] Randy, Pastor Paula, give me a word, marry me, bury me, pay these bills, prophesy. Why aren't you doing this? Why isn't it like it used to be? We don't like the music. We leaving the church because you didn't know our names and you didn't come have lasagna with us," she said, mimicking the demands and criticisms she was met with.When Jesus said, "By their fruits you shall know them" he wasn't talking about million dollar bank accounts.

I thought you were against rock throwing? Or rock throwing is okay depending on your target?
Donald Grey Barnhouse, late pastor of 10th Presbyterian Church in Philadelphia, used to ask "what would a town look like if Satan ran it? The lawns would be perfectly manicured, there would be no gum on the sidewalk, children would say yes sir and no ma'am. The churches would be packed on Sunday morning with Bibles open, but Jesus would not be preached."
A single individual made the following two comments in an online discussion about religion. The comments were made in separate posts, within a relatively short time of each other.
1) I have no need to throw rocks at her. Rock throwing tends to be a pretty hazardous hobby.
2) She said a lot more stuff that was more vulnerable than The Pope

Answer the following questions. Answers should be double spaced and any references used must be cited in the usual format.
1) Is it possible to reconcile these two statements? Explain.
2) From which disorder is the author likely to be suffering? Include in your discussion the terms "short memory", "bipolar disorder", "over medication", "under medication", "schizophrenia", "attention deficit disorder", "multiple personality disorder" and "booze".
3) Given the author's condition, do you consider him/her to be rational?
4) Discuss the respective importance of face-to-face versus anonymous cyberspace encounters, in diagnosing psychological disorders.

HOLY ANGER: American Evangelist, Benny Hinn Leaves Nigeria In Annoyance
Ghana Home Page/May 13, 2005
American evangelist, Benny Hinn left Nigeria in annoyance, saying $4million went down the drain in 3-day crusade. When the charismatic American evangelist, Dr. Benny Hinn arrived in Nigeria on April 28, he was looking forward to a quintessential crusade that would be attended by about six million people.
His expectations were high because he had already sunk $4million dollars (about N600million) into the 3-day crusade that is now being trailed by controversy. Dr. Hinn could not hide his disappointment on the third day of the crusade when he said with regret that the money he pumped into the project could have been put to better use.
Four million dollars down the drain! he reportedly shouted during the crusade, with his voice cracking with emotion. Giving a breakdown of the money spent after the crusade, Jon Wilson, vice president of the Benny Hinn Ministries said $3million was spent on hotel accommodation, transportation, technical infrastructure and other items, while the remaining money running into about N140million was used up by members of the local organizing committee.
Hypes and great expectations had heralded the coming of the world renowned healing evangelist to Africas most populous nation, but the organisers were reportedly scored very low by Hinn, who insinuated money business and told organisers that they got many things wrong. More was his anger when he learnt that the organisers collected N1,000 each from pastors who turned out to attend the Ministers Conference, which was part of the three-day programme.
This and many other discoveries allegedly led the preacher to pronounce publicly that no further fund will be provided by his organisation after the programme, to settle outstanding bills. He asked that the offering collected on two of the three days be used for that purpose.
Did he go to Nigeria because of an email promising him the cash?
Yeah. The email promised to deposit $100 million into his bank account if he spent $4 million in Nigeria. Guaranteed!
On that point, I couldn’t agree with Dr. Barnhouse more.
Speaking of 10th Presbyterian, I miss Dr. James Boice.
Matthew 7:23 (King James Version)
23And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
Barnhouse and other OPC members would be well advised to examine how the gay community is infiltrating all the Presbyterian sanctuaries to extinguish the words of Our Savior.
CS Lewis said much the same thing in Mere Christianity.
Barnhouse and other OPC members
Barnhouse was not OPC. His old church left the forerunner of the apostate PC(USA) over theological liberalism.
...OPC members would be well advised to examine how the gay community is infiltrating all the Presbyterian sanctuaries
Regardless of your ignorance of the OPC, they are not ordaining gays. They are very conservative.
Praise God for His faithfulness . . .
to Himself
to His Word
to us.
. . . AMEN!
True. True.
