As I have wrote about on here more than a few times...Where i grew up in east tennessee these type of holier than thou preachers would have lasted about as long as it would have taken the good folks to have packed his suit case for him and sent him packing. And for the most part they are still that way but im sure down around Knoxville and up around the tri-cities there are churches / preachers that are this way to some degree as A FEW of these big churches have came about.

1st of all ...how can a preacher with this type of attitude keep a church....thats the peoples fault.
2nd...why would people step foot in a church like that for a second or third time...thats the preachers fault.

I realize we can worship anywhere...as we know...worship is suppose to be about God...Giving thanks and praise to almighty God....not what we can and do get out of the worship time.....But today....if people can go in and sit down and sing their little hearts out to their favorite tunes and hear the prosperity message spoon feed to them...and the good fortune and well being crap handed out to them...they are good to go for the week...be it that God was given the praise and glory or not!

Where is the body of Christ in these type of Churches when the shepard dont and wont tend to his / her flock...To many buildings filled with people playing church this day and time!

And my friend...dont ever be sorry about venting on here....we are all just regular folks here at the Bible board and the Christian Rock Cafe...Most of us have lived a earthly hell for many years until we finally reached out to Jesus...and many here still have burdens here from health or whatever...you know...the kinds of stuff that real born-again folks deal with in life....We dont get up here and put our rose colored glasses on every morning....We love the Lord...we give him the praise and glory...and we stand up for what we think is right as the Holy Spirit leads us....Say what you mean and mean what you say....I believe any and all witness and testimony and venting that we can do here just lets other folks know that we are people / humans just like everyone else...we have our problems and pain and sickness just like the rest of the world...the only and big difference....We have Jesus to pull us through and sustain us!

Have a blessed day my friend and im glad you found your way
here......Onward Christian Soldier!
