I have just taken the time to listen to some of the better known of these so called end time’s teachers. For the ones who are good at their ultimate acts of deception there is quite a comfortable living to make. With the majority their main moto is fool enough of the sheeple often and long enough and we will be home and hosed. That is so, otherwise most of them would not be out there in the commercial world doing what they are in the first place. The favourite subject matter for most these guys would have to be the Rapture of the Church. Something that is not even in the Holy Scriptures to begin with. The Rapture of the Church is a lie. There is nothing in the word of God that says anything at all about either, a pre, mid or post Rapture. Then of course that list theories goes on and on to infinity.
However, despite all of the fanfare and popularity that some of them aspire to, there is simply not one of them who is ever right all of the time. In fact, it is not an exaggeration to say that there is not even one of them who is right even half of the time. The majority are using the word of God as a crux to espouse material that is based mainly on pure speculation alone. Most are not averse to using out and out lies to get a point across even if it means bending and twisting the facts just to suite their own agenda. That itinerary of course is all about making money. There are those who go on for years and years with their sham. God will deal with them on the day of judgement, and that is all the satisfaction that I need to have.

Why
these men are false teachers and prophets...
Benny Hinn 2015 |
T.D. Jakes denies the
Trinity. That makes his church a cult. Jakes has many other false teachings
including word-faith, and the prosperity gospel.
Robert Schuller, is a positive thinking guru who denies essential Christian doctrine.
Marilyn Hickey is a word-faith
teacher teaching false doctrine. One of her tapes recods her having a
conversation with her billfold, commanding the billfold to fill itself with
greenbacks.
Paul Crouch is responsible for an unending open door welcoming false teachers and prophets to his pulpit no matter how outlandish their their aberrant teachings may be. Croch has publicly stated that anyone who tests the teaching of any ministers on his programs will go straight to hell. Crouch has openly stated his desire to kill Christian apologists who point out heresy preached on his stations.
Rod Parsley is a word-faith
preacher who specializes in whipping up his audiences into altered states of
consciousness. His outlandish style is attractive to people who get emotionally
carried away by repetitive music and mantras.
R.W. Shambach is an incredible
con-artist used by CBN to raise money during their telethons. With scare
tactics and false teaching, Shambach surgically convinces thousands to send
their money to finance the heretical TBN .
Carlton Pearson has even been
attacked by false teachers like T.D. Jakes for his support of the
"doctrine of exclusion." This doctrine tries to reconcile
Christianity and Islam, claiming the 2 religions are completely compatible.
John Avanzinni is a
name-it-and-claim-it mega-star used by TBN whenever they want to promote the
hundredfold blessing. Avanzinni also promotes the heresy that God's reason for
creating humanity is to duplicate himself.
Kenneth &
Gloria Copeland
have one of the largest false ministries and influences in America. Copeland
teaches that Adam was an exact duplicate of God. Copeland teaches that Jesus
became a demonic being when he was crucified and had to go to hell and be born
again. The Copeland’s attempt to specialize in word-faith teaching. Copeland
calls God, the biggest loser in the Bible, and says Jesus was not God during
his earthly life.
John Hagee calls Covenant
Theologians heretics, because they do not make a distinction between the church
and Israel in the New Testament. Branding them as the "carriers of
Hitler's anointing", Hagee divides the body of Christ on secondary issues.
Hagee is also extremely dogmatic in his eschatology, failing to understand that
there are many diverse interpretations acceptable within the pale of orthodoxy.
Jessie Duplantis' ministry is riddled with errors. Presenting his messages with humor, Duplantis is a typical word-faith clone of Ken Copeland, often preaching from Copeland's pulpit.
Oral Roberts and son, Richard
Roberts are both word-faith con-artists. Oral is the originator of the
seed-faith doctrine. Have a need? Plant a seed. Large amounts of cash make the
best seed for planting. Both men practice cultic doctrines of bringing their cohorts
into altered states of consciousness
WHY I AM NOT A DISPENSATIONALIST John Nelson Darby is recognized as the father of dispensationalism later made popular in the United States by Cyrus Scofield's Scofield Reference Bible. Charles Henry Mackintosh, 1820–1896, with his popular style spread Darby's teachings to humbler elements in society and may be regarded as the journalist of the Brethren Movement. CHM popularised Darby more than any other Brethren author. As there was no Christian teaching of a “rapture” before Darby began preaching about it in the 1830s, he is sometimes credited with originating the "secret rapture" theory wherein Christ will suddenly remove His bride, the Church, from this world before the judgments of the tribulation. Dispensationalist beliefs about the fate of the Jews and the re-establishment of the Kingdom of Israel put dispensationalists at the forefront of Christian Zionism, because "God is able to graft them in again," and they believe that in His grace he will do so according to their understanding of Old Testament prophecy. They believe that, while the methodologies of God may change, His purposes to bless Israel will never be forgotten, just as He has shown unmerited favour to the Church, He will do so to a remnant of Israel to fulfill all the promises made to the genetic seed of Abraham. I am not a dispensationalist; it is unbiblical.
