Deep Apostolic Teachers?

And ........ Where did I say that I was "bitter" about it? Surely that's an "assumption" on your part, and a very erroneous one at that. Lest you have an "edifying" comment, why do you even choose to give your misguided opinion of another's statements!

No, that's not a question, rather an opinion of your apparent lack of understanding of the point I have sought to make known about my one, and only, attempt to engage Segraves in a one-on-one discussion of what I truly believed to be an issue of extreme "spiritual" importance, and his (what I deemed to be) "offending" response.

Do you have any scripture or proof for that?

Some real bitter folks on here. Life must be miserable.

[Michael The Disciple]

Lafon doesn't sound bitter to me. He is telling his side of an important encounter. And at times I think we need to be more sensitive to the judgment of God. No doubt some having not experienced his judgment hardly believe in it.

I am enjoying these smitings. Making room for more blessings. funny thing tithing has worked for me for 50 years giving and receiving.
Thanks is an acronym for:
T tithes
H hell if you don't pay
A always pay tithes
N never forget to pat your tithes
K keep on paying your tithes
S sure enough pay your tithes,

(look at how Epley "high fives" himself about folks going to hell for not tithing)



This is a "classic" case of extortion.....




This was written for such like false teachers regarding financial extortion of the saints(such as tithing).....

2 Peter 2:2 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. 2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.(the world thinks this false doctrine of tithing is a joke) 3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you(these men see you as a financial blessing to themselves) whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not......

beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children: 15 which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;

Paul here demanded for the Elders to take tithes of the saints....Right?...LOL


28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. 29 For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. 30 Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them. 31 Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.

32 And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified. 33 I have coveted no man’s silver, or gold, or apparel. 34 Yea, ye yourselves know, that these hands have ministered unto my necessities, and to them that were with me. 35 I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.(this passage quoting Jesus is for the Elders to give to the saints)

I have witnessed the Elders sucking the saint dry financially for 35 years now...whats wrong with this picture?
