    The Prosperity Gospel Money Dance

    I just watched this and I cannot believe my eyes. These people are so deceived; merciful Lord help their blindness.

    This is just nuts.

    As I've grown in my understanding of God's Word, I realize how many stepped-down versions of this there are in churches. It even spills over into one's views of worship and how one gets saved, why God is there, etc.

    What ought make us tremble in the face of a Holy God, is how these attitudes, assumed as being good intentions by our fallen nature, can seem so right to us at the time.

    Jeremiah was right.

    Jeremiah 17:9
    The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
    We need clarity of mind. We need courage to face our sin. We need to repent. We need a Savior.

    We need a "Manhattan Declaration" against these guys. I truly fear these charlatans far more and believe they do far more damage to the flock than my homosexual neighbors.

    Not during the service. It's not RPW. We wait 'til after the service.
