Hi CoastGuardCowboy. Thanks for your response. I'm not getting into any debates about COVID conspiracies theories with you. Cornie tries to drag me into those all the time, and he has no luck.
You seem like a really good, honorable guy... so I have no interest in COVID arguments with you (or anybody for that matter). I tell
@Corndog2021 all the time, "It's not your message, it's your delivery", and yes, I'm guilty of stirring up his hornet nest from time to time and watching the meltdown.
About my John Hagee post, that debate is important to me. I was only saying that I don't like to muddy the waters by calling prosperity gospel preachers "Evangelicals". Word of Faith is a counterfeit gospel. Can WOF preachers also preach the true Gospel of salvation by faith in Jesus Christ too... yes, they can and often do. But it only waters down and confuses the message of Christ. The naming of sickness and health issues, personal finances or other infirmities, then claiming control is telling God what to do. Not the way it works, and desperate people have given billions of dollars to these so-called ministries as their last hope, only to be ship-wrecked spiritually and financially. Too much more to say about that and touches a nerve with too many people.
Then you have guys like John Hagee that come right out and claim Jesus did not come as the Messiah. Look on YouTube and you'll find whenever the sermon is posted, Hagee's people pull it down off of YouTube for copyright violations. Do search,
"John Hagee" Jesus "Not the Messiah" and see for yourself. Lots has been written about it. His book "In Defense of Israel" addresses that teaching. Here is a commercial promoting the book. Pretty disturbing stuff here. Don't get me started on Robert Tilton, Benny Hinn, TD Jakes, Joyce Meyer, Copeland... just to name a few.
