Christian don’t have much common sense these days. Just look at those two and you can tell they are scammers. Same at our church and every other church I’ve attended. There seems to be a lot knaivity int the church these days. Many that were born and raised in the church lack discernment and are easily led astray. They cannot detect the subtle evil of the enemy because they have been so protected their whole lives. The strongest and most discerning Christians seem to be those that have had long hard worldly lives - they’ve know what evil is, they have walked with it, they know its subtleties. If the church is to survive and prosper those are the ones that will be saved/used by God to do so.

Exactly right! Mother Teresa’s image and work is a far cry from what the Osteen’s are peddling.

The Body of Christ will survive, but Christian churches won’t make it easy.

Know the heart of God and prepare for hardship.
