And yes, they are complaining about "criticism" coming from the church members. Look at Ergun Caner: his lawyer is standing in front of a judge and whining about how Jon Autry, a Christian family man who is offended by Caner's lies in pulpits, is a "cyber terrorist". Really? A blogger who dares to criticize Caner is a terrorist? <br /><br />These celebrity megachurch pastors are living in an alternative reality, where what they "think" is true based on what they want to be true, is actually true. They think they are specially anointed men of God who speak for God, and thus a critic must be of the devil. <br /><br />So here is Caner, but I don't hear any complaints. Where is Jerry Vines on this? He is partly responsible for promoting Gilyard in the first place, so why isn't he publicly speaking?<br /><br />Well, I received an email this week, that Vines WILL speak about Gilyard. In his next book. Yeah, pay him $15 and he'll tell you all about Gilyard. Should be speaking up now.<br />FBC Jax Watchdoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10740366031265491559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8384632623933772727.post-77263179999139686632014-05-03T09:57:27.150-04:002014-05-03T09:57:27.150-04:00"Let the little children come to me."

Give it a rest.<br />__________________________________<br />Preachers are quick to stomp around when someone whines or complains, so why are they silent when one of their own, a convicted child molestor, gets access to children. We don't rely on judges to keep our children safe. The law limits what they can do. It should be the members of the church, the parents, and yes, other preachers, that help police those that cannot protect themselves from these "men of god."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8384632623933772727.post-22708795861930301032014-05-03T09:52:54.508-04:002014-05-03T09:52:54.508-04:00What?

No mega pastors saying this is a problem in our churches, but instead, focusing on complainers and criticism as being a major problem in churches.<br /><br />I guess if it doesn't involve criticizing them; or involves people giving them more money, mega pastors and sissy administrative yes men are silent.

Sadly, this is so. Paul said to Timothy to watch your doctrine AND YOUR LIFE so as to save your hearers. The balance needs to shift of pastors not merely being good in doctrine but GREAT in deed. Why when was the last time you heard a sermon from II Thessalonians about NOT accepting those as ministers unless they too also act in accordance in NOT putting burdens on the laity where those brethren were taking advantage of congregants of their provision(II Thessalonians 3:-18).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8384632623933772727.post-37028013808736154142014-05-01T14:18:41.504-04:002014-05-01T14:18:41.504-04:00"The saying is trustworthy: If anyone aspires..."The saying is trustworthy: If anyone aspires to the office of overseer, he desires a noble task. Therefore an overseer must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, sober-minded, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, not a drunkard, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money. He must manage his own household well, with all dignity keeping his children submissive, for if someone does not know how to manage his own household, how will he care for God's church? He must not be a recent convert, or he may become puffed up with conceit and fall into the condemnation of the devil. Moreover, he must be well thought of by outsiders, so that he may not fall into disgrace, into a snare of the devil.<br /><br />Deacons likewise must be dignified, not double-tongued, not addicted to much wine, not greedy for dishonest gain. They must hold the mystery of the faith with a clear conscience. And let them also be tested first; then let them serve as deacons if they prove themselves blameless. Their wives likewise must be dignified, not slanderers, but sober-minded, faithful in all things. Let deacons each be the husband of one wife, managing their children and their own households well. For those who serve well as deacons gain a good standing for themselves and also great confidence in the faith that is in Christ Jesus." - 1 Timothy 3:1-13 ESV<br /><br /><br />"This is why I left you in Crete, so that you might put what remained into order, and appoint elders in every town as I directed you— if anyone is above reproach, the husband of one wife, and his children are believers[d] and not open to the charge of debauchery or insubordination. For an overseer,[e] as God's steward, must be above reproach. He must not be arrogant or quick-tempered or a drunkard or violent or greedy for gain, but hospitable, a lover of good, self-controlled, upright, holy, and disciplined. He must hold firm to the trustworthy word as taught, so that he may be able to give instruction in sound doctrine and also to rebuke those who contradict it.<br /><br />For there are many who are insubordinate, empty talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision party. They must be silenced, since they are upsetting whole families by teaching for shameful gain what they ought not to teach. One of the Cretans, a prophet of their own, said, “Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons.” This testimony is true. Therefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith, 14 not devoting themselves to Jewish myths and the commands of people who turn away from the truth. To the pure, all things are pure, but to the defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure; but both their minds and their consciences are defiled. They profess to know God, but they deny him by their works. They are detestable, disobedient, unfit for any good work." - Titus 1:5-16 ESV<br /><br />This man does not possess the biblical qualifications to pastor to anyone much less to children. It is God's word that this man is unfit for the office he holds. I pray that he repents for his sins and asks for God's forgiveness and someone in the that church gets some discernment.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07417475159501619455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8384632623933772727.post-76776000176744945452014-05-01T09:00:26.541-04:002014-05-01T09:00:26.541-04:00I see you mention Jerry Vines' name again.

We are so busy pointing fingers outward at the world, focusing on issues such as gay marriage and the claim of it destroying the family; meanwhile 50% of marriages end in divorce anyway. Our sin has destroyed the home, not homosexuals. Homosexuality is just another symptom of the big problem, which is the sin that prevails in our world. We need to hold those within the church walls most accountable, and NEVER be accepting of those who have harmed children or forced themselves upon others. I understand that we are to forgive, but my old church had a pedophile who attended church with his parole officer because he was not allowed to be within proximity of children without him. I certainly understand this person may be seeking God, but he could also be seeking my kid, which is why I went elsewhere. Gilyard has taken away these kids' innocence for life, so the least that can be done is he never have back the life of preaching he once held.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8384632623933772727.post-8274322919748488042014-05-01T07:50:44.780-04:002014-05-01T07:50:44.780-04:00A safe prediction:
