THE CIRCUIT-RIDER VS THE TELEVANGELIST

One of the top televangelists in the nation was recently invited to preach in Baltimore, Maryland. His terms for coming were #1. That he must be picked up by a limousine at the airport, #2. that he must have $1,000 spending money, #3. That he must be guaranteed at least $10,000 in offerings. This same televangelist/pastor lives in a multimillion-dollar mansion, eats in the finest restaurants and wears the most expensive tailor-made suits. His writings and speaking engagements have garnered millions of dollars.

Did Jesus Command Ministers to Minister Without Compensation or Support?

Jesus gave a word of instruction to the original apostles that is also a word to everyone in the ministry in all ages, though actually the most frequently quoted part of that word is only one part of the message He spoke: “FREELY you received, FREELY give!” (Mat. 10:8) While this word is one of the most important words He gave to His disciples, unfortunately it has also become one of the most misunderstood and misapplied words of Jesus. Many people whose hearts are not right even though they may claim to be Christians refer to this passage as proof text for their completely erroneous and ludicrous assertion that ministers should do all they do for free, i.e., without any compensation for their labors whatsoever. Yet, nothing could be further from the truth!

The Epidemic Illness Affecting Millions

There’s an illness going around. You’ve definitely heard of it, even if not by the name used here. It’s not the bird flu. It’s not the regular flu for which many have already gotten flu shots. It’s not one of the more notable illnesses, like AIDS, or HIV. But I’m sure you’ve heard of it. In fact, everyone has seen its devastating effects.

Are We Charismatics Doing Enough to Correct Abuses in Our Midst?

In fact, one of the real problems in the body today is the lack of true accountability for many leaders and churches (charismatic and non-charismatic alike), making it very difficult to bring correction and discipline when it is needed. (To be perfectly candid though, there were errors that existed in New Testament times and in the succeeding centuries; the church has always had to confront error and heresy.)

What’s Your Plan?

“‘For I know the plans that I have for you,’ declares the LORD, ‘plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope.” (Jer. 29:11) God has plans for you and your life! The question is do YOU have a plan for your life?

Ten Ways the Word of Faith Movement Erred

I have found that whenever we preach or emphasize one truth of God’s word at the exclusion of others it becomes a mixture and produces both good and bad fruit (for example: hyper-grace; hyper-faith; from an overemphasis on outward holiness we get legalism; and we come into a form of fatalism when we emphasize God’s sovereignty at the expense of human responsibility).

I’m Dreaming of A RIGHT Christmas

A pastor worked in his study all through Christmas Eve preparing for the Christmas morning service. Being very tired he dozed off and dreamt of a world to which the Savior had never come. In his dream he was looking around his home but there were no Christmas decorations, no candles or Christmas wreaths. He walked into his study and thumbed through his library but found no books about Jesus, and the Bible he found ended at Malachi. He noticed that the last words of the Bible were: “Lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.”
