I’m now pleading to those who are truly born-again Christians who love’s and fear God. To stop winking their eyes to this wicked perverted Christianity that are adding more tares in the Church. And are now sending masses of false believers in hell, We Christian should remember and be moved by the blood and tears of many Christians of the past and of today, They’d sacrifice too much for the kingdom of God to advance. And must not and cannot advance the kingdom of God with a lie. People of God we must be watchful and vigilant to expose this greed’s of darkness. We must also help those believers and ministers that are ensnared by this lie. The pulpits and Christian radio stations must blow the trumpets of ultimatum and warning to these prosperity cults.
Who can imagine that this gospel that are only popular in states and in some nations, are now here in our islands? A pastor, who was a former member of big pastor’s fellowship that promotes greediness, told me that one of their leaders there taught them that if the cash is not flowing in their pockets, then the Holy Spirit is not flowing in you. Now that is a blasphemy against the Holy Spirit! Where in the bible did found that? This people will never ever qualify the apostles and the Hebrew heroes of faith for the ministry, because for them those people are penniless beggars, non-Spirit filled, faithless bunch of believers who no faith to claim the financial blessings of God. This how they motivate their people they say that if you not rich you are displeasing to God. There also some proud successful looking Churches in the Philippines that had big signs of gold and money on their walls to show the atmosphere of prosperity. They thought had found a common ground between mammon and Jesus through their distorted verse explanations. Oh even they are well spoken in the world by the unbelievers and many people flock their Churches, surely the awful wrath of God is so inescapable for them, unless they repent!
Last month after I had preached on school chapel about the pollution in the Church, which includes prosperity gospel and money preachers like Renato Carrillo. A pastor classmate of mine approached me and told that a night before that day he is in a dinner with Carrillo. Then he told me how shameless this false prophet is. This man who claims that every Filipino will bow down before him one day, and let his followers kiss his feet, Also claims that if all Christian Churches will not be under him there will no revival in the Philippines. Aye, he too doesn’t understand revival, because when revival comes the masses of people will be convicted about sin, righteousness and judgment by the presence of God. And he too must get rid of his greediness and pride. Why is it popular for many pastors to adopt these teachings? Well, because they thought the visible success is there even though it compromise. Now, we can say that there are a lot of people that are flocking those Churches. But does it mean the doctrine is approved by God? What they are doing is they will reduce the gospel into 4 spiritual laws, and then they will assure the believer that they are king’s kid even though they are not yet regenerated. Not just that they committed gospel reductionism they also make a person greedier. Look at II tim. 4:3-4 the people both sinners and ignorant believers are flocking them, because they could cater to the people’s itching ears and lust. The satanical lying spirits have possessed those pastors to invent a trick for the lust-bound generation to come to their false jesus. Those people think that the poor Christians in Africa and Asia are riper for judgment, because the cash were not flowing as sign of true Christianity contrary to I tim. 6:5. I think Conrad Murrell got this more rightly he said. “ They are purveyors of religious nonsense catering to carnal lust of unconverted men and childish Christians. The racket is enormously profitable; for a while you are preaching to them faith, and they are on irrational excitement of great things you are promising them, you give them an opportunity to show their faith by giving everything they had to you. By the time they find out it doesn’t work, you are now long away the money in you pockets.”
Before I too used to defend this heresy but now I see the hellishness of this teaching. I remember when I’m still yet a new Christian I attended this big youth gathering which is really of God. But there’s a part of service where the pastor who looks like a pimp started preaching on giving, on all of the people was moved by his ‘testimonies’ on all was giving their all, then he asked us to jump to catch the blessing. Mike Velarde use to do that like in some encounter God retreats (not all). And this pastors are really against those people who preached and lived taking the cross, repentance and judgment on sin. The result is they are producing new young ministers that are very critical against those preachers that are preaching those things. I’m not saying that you will never become rich nor you will never become poor as a Christian. But we must remember we are called to be holy not to be greedy. Friends it time to get serious the time is running out stop playing with those teachings that might damn your soul forever. Get away from the churches and pastors who are involve in this prosperity cult! This is an ultimatum for you! Run to Jesus for mercy and seek and obey Him forever!!!
