Subject: Is C. Dollar teaching the truth? |
Bible Note: Greetings Radioman, I agree with the assessment of the teachings of Creflo Dollar.. Here in Indianapolis, I am able to get quite a range of so called "religious" programming.. :-) My favorite programs are "Through the Bible" with Les Feldick, "In Touch" with Charles Stanley, "Coral Ridge" with D. James Kennedy and the "John Ankerberg Show".. One other show that I watch from time to time is Lakewood Church out of Houston, TX. But there is also Creflo Dollar and Benny Hinn and Joyce Meyer, etc.. :-) The various TV stations no doubt have their own reasons for showing what comes on television (probably who pays the highest dollar).. But there are quality alternatives that exist to some of the religious programming that comes over the TV screen. Whenever I watch one of these "TV preachers", I always like to get their background and what point of view that they are speaking from.. For instance, Charles Stanley and Les Feldick are Baptists, D. James Kennedy is Presbyterian, and John Ankerberg is a Protestant Christian who is very solid in Biblical theology. So my advice to the Forum is to check into the backgrounds of these "TV pastors" first, before plunging into and accepting their doctrine and leadership. My advice is to plug yourself into a local pastor and church instead of a "TV pastor." :-) Going to church is free! They don't charge you at the door, and little does this world know, that going to church is the best thing for you!! :-) Makarios |
