The four year old article appears to be the only thing he ever authored.

A fresh word would be nice.

Some of the things I've read on here are vicious and very judgemental. One of the things he teaches, the Bible tells us that by the measure we judge, we'll be judged. Matthew 7: 2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. 2 For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.

If we judge harshly, we'll be judged harshly, if we show compassion, we'll be shown compassion...if we extend Grace, Grace will be extended.

2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 15 Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.

What happened to praying for those you agree or disagree with? Why would you not want to talk with him to hear him out...or at the very least, try to help him see your point of view?
He is a Great man of GOD , he has a precious wife too.

I don't understand your problem. He received a revelation and at the time felt that it would be the foundation for a book. It hasn't materialized. So what? His revelation stands in his heart. I would imagine that if you attended his church, you would be hearing fresh words consistently. The Bible is how old....and you're talking about a fresh word? You need open your eyes.

Somebody needs to learn the difference between revelation and deception.

Revelation and Deception, now those are some interesting words.

Revelation as in you have to do certain things to be saved? Like 3 steps until you are fully justified?

Revelation as in obey your pastor if he tells you not to wear red shoes?

Revelation like you won't go to hell for cutting your hair, but for disobedience to a man who told you not to?

Revelation like putting your hair down over the prayer needs and calling for the angels who surround your uncut hair to go and heal?

Revelation like using old testament scriptures which have no relevance or context to preach pet doctrines like pants, earrings or uncut hair on women?

Or is it Deception like believing you are saved by grace through faith, not of ourselves lest any man should boast?

Deception as in trusting Christ for our salvation, and He alone.

Deception as in actually questioning what we were told by ignorant men who refused to study to show themselves approved and open their minds?

Deception as in we are the "true church" and everybody else who professes faith in Christ is hell bound?

Just wondering Dr. what coons you've been skinning lately?

Not too sharp a post here.

For being pretty indignant and taking offense to an observation you sure are shoveling a lot of words into someone else's mouth.

BTW YOU said these things, he didn't.

You are assuming i was making an accusation. I was merely dissecting two words. I just asked the good Dr. what coons he has been skinning lately...after all he is the Dr. Coonskinner.
