Manipulative Praise & Insincere Worship

A Scripture was on my heart as I awoke this morning. “Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much.” (Luke 16:10 NIV)

So I asked God why I had an image of a certain pastor in my mind as I was reminded of that Biblical text. God answered that the pastor was not trustworthy with teaching true doctrine but he wanted God to reward him for singing praises. My thoughts are that if he can’t be trusted to seek God for the correct interpretation of Scriptures, then why is God allowing him to stay in the pulpit? Actually, that’s my question to God about all the local pastors.

The Pastor Report Card that was posted yesterday had very specific doctrinal areas for grading. It was purposely blank so that each pastor or congregation member could seek God about how their church is doing on each doctrinal area.

1) Does the pastor teach that hearing God is the most important ingredient that leads to obeying God and following Him? Or does the pastor instead teach that the individual interpretation of the Bible (a book) has more authority than God? I’m definitely not saying that we should ignore studying the Bible, but it seems that most churches choose to ignore seeking God. God is Spirit. God is not a book. Most seem to understand that they don’t need to pray to the book, but they evidently believe that God can only speak through it. How did God become less powerful than His creation? He made us able to speak but He made Himself to be mute? (That was sarcasm.)

2) Again, too many pastors can’t be bothered to seek God about their three gods issue. There is only one God, not three. Listen, I boldly post pages proving this doctrinal stance for their inspection and comments. Where are they boldly posting their doctrinal stance for discussion? I’d love to have the opportunity to publicly debate their stance on the “trinity” of gods that they preach.

3) I will never understand how they get away with preaching that Jesus is not God, but instead a Son of God. Why God puts up with that is just unfathomable to me. He has more patience than I do, but that’s a given. He probably gets His abundance of patience from one of the two other gods that He’s purported to have as backups. (That was sarcasm).

I will continue discussing the report card doctrines tomorrow. For today, I will post a page of Scriptures that reflect the one-God theology just in case they would like to debate this topic with me. The attributes of God are listed on the second attachment.

Shaking Up Pulpits

It’s Wednesday, January 29, 2025, and God is still on the Throne! Interestingly though, in January of 2021, I mailed Mark of Excellence newsletters to 24 local pastors warning them of God’s judgment against them for false teaching. Only four years later, half of those pastors are no longer in pulpits in Titusville. I’m just saying that pastors should take notice about these warnings. But will they, or will they stomp their feet like insolent children and stand firm on their false doctrines. God won’t put up with it for long. Pastors, for your sake open your stubborn eyes and see what God is providing.

“He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.”
(2 Thessalonians 1:8 NIV)

God understands that the false teachers don’t like the vessel that God is delivering His message through … me. But He doesn’t care. He doesn’t need their permission to choose whoever He wants. Unlike those false teachers, I’m unwilling to provoke God against me. But listen, this is not an easy job. Thankfully, God has my back. “Then the LORD reached out his hand and touched my mouth and said to me, ‘I have put my words in your mouth.’” (Jeremiah 1:9 NIV)

This is what the Prophet Jeremiah said and my own heart echoes it. “But if I say, ‘I will not mention his word or speak anymore in his name,’ his word is in my heart like a fire, a fire shut up in my bones. I am weary of holding it in; indeed, I cannot.” (Jeremiah 20:9 NIV)

Well, if the Lord wants to shake up the pulpits, then I’m all in. We can do it the nice way or God can exact His judgment. It’s up to you!

Attached are two pages from the 2021 Mark of Excellence newsletters. The pastor report card gives an outline of the top ten areas where false doctrines need to be reviewed in the churches. The page of Scriptures about false teachers will hopefully serve as a reminder of what God deems as appropriate punishment for those who teach falsely.

Correct & Refute Those Who Oppose It:

  • “Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction.” (2 Timothy 4:2 NIV)
  • “He must hold firmly to the trustworthy message as it has been taught, so that he can encourage others by sound doctrine and refute those who oppose it.” (Titus 1:9 NIV)
