"Preach, Preacher!"
Excerpt from newest book: Preach, Preacher!
True
believers understand a couple of things about the Bible. One—we
understand how to distinguish meaning by knowing who was talking, to
what they were referring, and what was going on at the time they said
what they said. Two—we know that God is not a man that He should lie,
but we also understand that He used (inspired flawed men) to write what
we consider to be—His Word (notice how the choice between “Word” and not
Words is used). Three—we know—that if we lined up
scripture—line-upon-line, precept (principle) upon precept that there is
no way we can legitimately refute God’s purpose in and through His
Word. Notice that the beginning of this paragraph started with, what?
True believers. Those of us who know the truth cannot be easily swayed
by those who counterfeit truth for their purposes. Who are the
counterfeits? Anyone not saying what God says, within the context of
God saying it, and by their words—leading people away from The Word and
God’s love! Know any of these people? Let’s find out!
In this
book, I explore the who's who of some televangelists and what some have
done to discredit them, discuss how to determine who to listen to in
churches, and list who I enjoy in The Word. Available, later this week.
You might be surprised with the list of people mentioned by name.
