Bible Note: Tim Notice also this thread has been restricted. Tim chill out. I agree works based theology is bad but frankly little of it is still taught in the church today. Today we allow homsexuality, divorce, adultery and even child molestation in the church. In the 50's through the early 70's it was in vogue but by the 70's through early 90's the move has gone to health wealth and prosperity. Josh McDowell reports that today's youth do not believe in absolute truths. It is a "if it feels good and hurts no one do it" mentality out there. With the rise of humanism works base could be seen in that everyone could be god it they desired but I think that is a long stretch from what your calling works based. When paul said if anyone comes to you teaching a theology I did not teach let them be accursed he was talking about WOF as much as works based. Tim many men preach without getting paid for it. That is what surprized me about your seeming support of WOF their preachers are the highest paid of any. In Tampa there was a WOF preacher making better than 210 thousand a year while few if anyone in his church made over 40,000. He owns a half million dollar horse farm has a vacation house and new cars while his people struggled to pay the rent. He bought it all on their money. It is now coming out in the divorce between him and his wife. She wants half the church for her sustained income. Tim your not saying anything new many others are saying the same thing your just saying it offensively and I believe it because you have some hurts. Do you want to talk about them? EdB |
