Snake Oil Salesmen Jack shanks 2Cor 11:4 . . . he that cometh preacheth another Jesus . . .
It seems that religious hucksters are more numerous than even political charlatans, and this is saying a mouthful. And the agony of it is that they have millions of followers, and they do not even know who the Lord Jesus Christ is. Modern-day preachers have made a conscience-soothing, fire escape from hell and named it "jesus". The modern preacher has made the only Savior to be a pathetic, helpless beggar at the hearts door of the sinner. The preacher of easy-believism and decisionism has made the will of Christ, the work of Christ, and the glory of Christ subject to the sinner's will. These hucksters ask, "What will you do with Jesus? Won't you accept Jesus and let him have his way with you?" This is a blatant lie, a blasphemous delusion, and a snare of hell. Anybody with half a spiritual brain knows that. Shame on you! Your tune will change when you stand in His presence.
Jesus Christ is GOD, the sovereign LORD and KING. That is who He said He is. Religion killed Him for this very reason (John 10:30-33). NO, you don't have Him in your hands to accept or reject, but He has you to accept or reject. He has the right, and the power to save you or damn you (John 5:21-23). I believe if I were you, I would bow before the great KING and say "Lord, if you will, you can make me whole."
Why don't you religious hucksters go join a carnival somewhere and sell snake-oil? At least you wouldn't be murdering the souls of men.

The husks that the swine did eat (Luke 15:16). I realize that all who trust Christ in His precious shed blood have become a perfect, cleansed, holy child of God. But I cannot get away from the thought of "in time past" (Eph. 2:2). I believe it is...[ abbreviated | read entire ]
