What you posted above is what bothers me, because you HAVE to go to his website and drag it over here for the discussion. Someone went there, DA (?) or someone related it to DA and he is like - COOL BEANS - another inconsistency in the ranks!!! Let's roll some heads around on my AI Forum (the one I wanted to use to attack the UPCI - hence AI ) AND AFF because this is fodder that goes over well with the members. Just sayin'...

You can't actually see the scenario here?

Now, what did I do with that buzzard image?

I try not to post on this type of thread, but sometimes I just do. Toe Torry.


So if Jimmy Swaggart posts a sermon on his church website in which he calls Billy Graham a stupid idiot who doesn't know the difference between John 3:16 and a Hardy Boys book, you're saying you'd come on here when it was discussed and say, "That's not news, you all shouldn't be talking about him like that"?

Oh wait.....we're not supposed to criticize, I forgot.
LOL! Hilarious!

Okay, I could care less implies that I have some degree of caring left. I think I would always have, maybe, some degree of caring. Depends on how far you push me. I'm open to make adjustments one way or the other. I'm very good at the silent treatment though. LOL!

Re: A Relevant Holiness Message

There is an Evangelist here on SoCal that reminds me of Poe. He does a LOT of superfluous talking, trying to be funny and even referencing worldly songs like Peter Frampton's "Do you feel like I do".

At one point when our sound guy did not give him enough monitor he requested before the service he asked him "Hey sound guy? Speak english?"..our sound guy that night was a 15 year old young hispanic man...I wanted to slap some sense into that guy. It just does not impress me and certainly there is no spiritual value in that kind of stuff..did he even crack a bible open?

  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

If I read that on the Drudge Report or in the WSJ, I might become involved in that. The news will be scrolling as a headline. That makes it more public, but that is just how I view it. Howevah, I wouldn't "monitor" his website or Facebook page - like a buzzard. Just saying'....

But this kind of "preaching" bothers me and I know Im probably a minority but I don't laugh at that stuff, not even to be courteous.

To me, if you heard from God and you really are called to preach, then preach. His whole "deal" was he was "warming up" the audience. He wanted a reaction. He wanted people to get "stoopid"..Honestly with these kinds of "sermons" it really does not matter if he preaches the gospel as long as he can manipulate the audience into getting stoopid his job is done.

This kind of stuff is so superficial it's no wonder the so called "revival" is not lasting. Lasting revival plants a seed in your soul

But somebody DID watch it and give out the information. It doesn't matter WHO did, someone did. And it becomes news. It seems what you're saying here that things are only news if Drudge of that other thing you mentioned, or something like, reveals it. That doesn't make any sense to me.

Re: A Relevant Holiness Message

I believe we all need to watch what we say and be consistent in what we say.
To that end, I don't have a problem with DA pointing out problems.
I do believe he sometimes doesn't know how to make his point and move on, but my wife says the same about me...

I think Bro. McKee is a wonderful man of God and respect him very much. He is very nice! And, no I do NOT go to his church.
