Good Friday is a time to for churches to preach how Christ was lifted up on the cross so that people may know that are forgiven of their sins. Resurrection Sunday is a time for churches to proclaim "He is risen indeeed".
But for some reason, Gateway Church decided to advertise their Easter with this tasteless erectile dysfunction ad spoof.
How do you fleece your church when Christian families are suffering through the Global Financial Crisis? Introduce your church to the "Tithe Rap". This tithe* gimmick will be sure to entertain the gullible to part with their cash! (Robert Morris - eat your heart out.)
This is what happens when people take their personal experiences and IHOP's false Bridal Paradigm too far. This is Brandon Barthrop from Red Letter Ministries (RLM) who holds his church services in a former crackhouse in Minnesota. (You can hear his wife Penny in the background.)
(Warning: MA - explicit language and disturbing sexual references.)
This is Barthrop's excuse for the above video:
“WARNING! This videos is a parable! NOT to be taken literally. The language in this video is symbolic! Glory! Having spiritual sex with Jesus should be just as normal to Christians as breathing, since we are 1 spirit. Intimacy has been so religiousized by demons, so let us break the barriers into the reality of what intimacy is: sexual union. The entire bridal paradigm and the mystery of marriage and consummation etc. that is in the natural is all symbolic of the ultimate union with God. Sex between a man and women in the marriage covenant is the physical manifestation of the spiritual marriage and spiritual sex between the Christian and their Lord. Glory! Orgasmic glory is here to stay as the Lord will never issue us a divorce certificate! Hallelujah! For more orgasmic glory visit Red Letter Ministries online garden: http://RedLetterMin.com/”"
Since reviewing a sermon from Phil Pringle from Christian City Church, Oxford Falls, Sydney Australia, it is worth advertising his church leadership and church/college staff.
(Warning: some people may find this video offensive.)
Did you know Patricia King wants you to experience Ekstasis Worship? We will let Patricia King introduce you to this bizzarre worship experience:
"Have you ever heard the term 'Ekstasis worship'? No? Well many people haven't. It's a powerful word. It's a Greek word that means... well you'll find out in a little while. Because I want to introduce to you Caleb Brundidge.
He's one of our itinerant ministries. But also a worshiper with so much passion. In fact if you've been to any of our conference, you would see Caleb flagging and worshiping God and opening up the heavens and operating in a real breaker level anointing.
He is actually a DJ as well and leads a lot of Christian events and weddings and you know, High School events and things like that. So if you would like to know mor about him, he's on our itinerant page on our website. But today, he's going to tell you about Club Mysterio and about the Ekstasis worship that takes place to bring those times of gathering together. So it's my privelege to introduce to you Caleb Brundage."
She aired this following segment on XP media. (You can see Patricia King 55 seconds in.)
The Elijah List allowed Caleb Brundidge to explain his teachings more. To read more on this, click here.
Could someone explain to us the purpose of having a church's praise band perform Miley Cyrus', Wrecking Ball? Newspring Church, under the "pastoral care" of Perry Noble did exactly that.
Makes perfect sense if you think about it. Miley Cyrus is a paragon of Christian virtues and morality...cough...well...she was rated G years ago when she was Hannah Montana. But, clearly she's made some effort to shed the G rating and is now rated..PG-13...no....R....no...X.
Video from Newspring's church performance is posted below AND notice how they projected the lyrics so that the people at Newspring Church could sing along, just like a praise song.
