Bible Question: I have been listening to a certain speaker and I have some reserve about him and his teachings although he is known all around the world. What is the opinion of C.Dollar? |
Bible Answer: Creflo Dollar -- In His Own Words 'Jesus Did Not Come As God And Was Not Perfect! 'If Jesus came as God, then why did God have to anoint him? If Jesus - See God’s already anointed. If Jesus came as God, then why did God have to anoint him? Jesus came as a man, that’s why it was legal to anoint Him. God doesn’t need anointed. He is anointing. Jesus came as a man and at age thirty, God is now getting ready to demonstrate to us and give us an example of what a man with the anointing can do. '....Jesus didn’t come as God, He came as a man, and He did not come perfect. '....But Jesus didn’t show up perfect. He grew into His perfection. You know Jesus - one scripture in the bible - he went on a journey, he was tired. You better hope God don’t get tired. Isaiah 50 says, 50, 60, somewheres says where we have a God who fainteth not, neither is wearied? But Jesus did. If He came as God and he got tired; He says he sat down by the well because he was tired. Boy we’re in trouble. '....And somebody said, well, Jesus came as God! Well, how many of you know the Bible says God never sleeps nor slumbers? And yet in the book of Mark we see Jesus asleep in the back of the boat. (pause) Please listen to me. Please listen to me. This ain’t no heresy. I’m not some false prophet. I’m just reading this thing out to you of the Bible. I’m just telling you, you all these fantasy preacher have been preaching all of this stuff for all of these years and we bought the package! (Creflo Dollar Ministries: World Changers, 12/8/2002)' '- Directly contradicts John 1:14, which reads "The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us." Creflo Dollar has the flesh becoming the Word! '- Dollar reduces Christ to an ordinary man who has been anointed, and as Copeland says, even HE could have died for our sins. '- Contradicts 2 Cor. 5:21 "God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God." '- This is a blasphemous statement and blatant heresy on his part.' ____________________ (http://www.geocities.com/Bob_Hunter/dollar.html) --Radioman2 |
