2Pe
2:1 But there were false prophets also among
the people, even as there shall be false
teachers among you, who privily shall bring
in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord
that bought them, and bring upon themselves
swift destruction. 2Pe 2:2 And many shall
follow their pernicious ways; by reason of
whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken
of.
2Pe 2:3 And through covetousness shall they
with feigned words make merchandise of
you: whose judgment now of a long time
lingereth not, and their damnation
slumbereth not.
King James Version (KJV) 2 Peter - Chapter 2
And
they keep wondering, why the merchandize
which they have become in this
"Christian Industry", is only an
imitation of what they know to be the
"real thing".
Yes,
the Bible is very clear, how FALSE TEACHERS
and WORKERS OF INIQUITY are MAKING
MERCHANDISE OUT OF YESUS KRISTOS
WORSHIPPERS.
Oh
yes, this is being preached from the
pullpits of the false preachers and
prophets, and the poor poor poor poor people
have no idea what's happening to them. Look
at this:
that's
one of the problems why these artists take
so long to do an album. most times the
songs are there. but it takes a while to
get the funds. my pastor always says that
we christians (well i'm reffering to st.
lucia) always witness to people who are
not too wealthy and we forget about the
wealthy ones. imagine if we witnessed to a
well known wealthy individual and he
accepted the gospel. just imagine how he
would help to support the work of God!
Yes,
this is how it works in a nutshell. Look
again. See how others agree! Do you see that
this pure blasphemy? "Witnessing",
"sharing salvation", all these
biblically sounding words that deceive so
many, turn out to be nothing more but money
making methods. Creating customers and
sponsors for the christian industrial
complex.
The
lust for money is the root of all evil. But
as you can see, this is the
"gospel" that these Christafarians
believe in. The gospel of money.
Oh yes, there are some who still have a
little bit of consciousness left in their
brainwashed mind set. But they don't see the
point, unfortunately they seem to have been
blinded by the roots of all evil, that is
the lust for money.
While
I agree we should witness to rich and poor
alike, I don't believe God needs the wealth
of the rich to forward His kingdom. After
all, "The earth is the Lord's and the
fullness thereof", He owns it already.
He's just waiting for us to give more. It
was the poor widow that gave all she had. It
is not about who gives the most money but
who makes the bigger sacrifice.
Another
person has another disagreement, but not
principally either. He senses, that the
watering down comes from what he calls
"leaders" (where Yesus Kristos
said that only HE is LORD) and he simply
wants to have the artists in the christian
industrial complex be more
"entertaining".
certain
ones come into the christian and gospel
arena and many time are influenced and
controlled by the leaders and people around
then to change their style and the get soft
(...) similar people are saying they are not
there to and do not want to entertain with
thier music, and they forget to realize that
the most effective form of influence in this
day in age is entertainment (...) these
things add up to no fan base or no following
which is where the money comes from to do
things and you also realize that the poeple
who are ones influenced by these big secular
bands is their fans right? its not those who
come to one show and never listen to the
music again.
In
the Christian Industrial Complex,
entertainment is the key to the prison
cells. And in a prison you can't make any
SOUNDS OF FREEDOM in order to keep the
prisoners inside. You can use entertainment
to get people become prisoners, though...
And it is often disguised as mission
or evangelizing.
"Leaders" are the ones who bring
the watered down styles that many feel.
After all, in the Christian Industrial
Complex the point is "who is the most
authentic", meaning: "who is the
allest things to all men, or "who is
the best IMITATOR". Listen to 30
seconds of christafari's "music",
and you will know exactly what I mean with
that. They are unable to make
"authentic reggae" because
"authentic reggae" is SOUNDS OF
FREEDOM.
The debate then continues. Who has the most
money? The rich, the poor, the fans? The guy
who said "the rich", has some
extra argumentation. The well of the poor,
as he knows very well in st lucia, is not
without bottom. In America, they don't
realize this, but at St Lucia they do. And
therefore he says:
If
you go to church ask only those who aren't
working or those who have nothing to give
offerings and say to those who have more
money to stop giving cuz God doesn't need
it. eventually some of the utilities are
going to be cut off.
In
other words: the money must be payed while
people must think "God needs it".
It can then be used to try to make even more
"authentic" music which will then
serve as "entertaintment", which
is basically eartickling as the Bible
describes this grand delusion from the
christian industrial complex.
