(Romans 16:17; 1 Corinthians 5:6-8; 2 Corinthians 6:14-18; Ephesians 5:11)ONE OF THE BIGGEST PROBLEMS WE HAVE IN THE CHURCH TODAY ARE MEN AND WOMEN
WHO GOD HAS CALLED TO LEAD THE PEOPLE, WHO HAVE SOLD OUT GOD AND HIS TRUTH
FOR THIS WORLD!!! NOW MORE THAN EVER, AS WE ARE IN THE LAST DAYS, GOD NEEDS
MEN AND WOMEN OF GOD WHO WILL NOT COMPROMISE HIS TRUTH, NOT WATER DOWN THE
GOSPEL, NOT WAVER UNDER THE TEMPTATIONS OF THIS JOURNEY THROUGH LIFE, BUT
HOLD FIRM AND DECLARE TO THIS LOST AND DYING GENERATION THAT GOD'S TRUTH IS
THE ONLY TRUTH AND JESUS IS THE ONLY HOPE FOR MEN NOW AND FOR ALL
ETERNITY!!!
The danger of Robert Schuller's "Rethink Conference." Before you do anything
today, you need to get out your Bible and read each of the anchor verses:
Romans 16:17, ! Corinthians 5:6-8, 2 Corinthians 6:14-18, Ephesians 5:11. I
am constantly amazed at Christian leaders who align themselves with men and
women who do NOT know Christ as their Savior, reject the Bible as the only
Truth there is, and embrace the false gods and lies of this world. The Bible
has much to say about our relationships and those people we align ourselves
with. We can never forget that as a man or woman of God, we are His
ambassadors and the ones who have been called to carry His light and Truth
to this dark and fallen world we live in.
This is even a greater issue for those God has called to lead His people
since they will be judged more harshly. Why do these men of God insist on
being part of unholy alliances that require the absolutes of His Word to be
compromised and the Gospel to be watered down? I hear all the time the
excuse that this is what it takes to get things done in a world that rejects
Biblical Truth and Jesus Christ, but I call that a lie from the pits of hell
itself. Paul dealt with the kings and princes of his day. He spoke to the
business leaders and people in the cities he traveled to.
PAUL NEVER COMPROMISED GOD'S TRUTH OR WATERED DOWN THE GOSPEL! PAUL NEVER
FAILED TO TELL MEN THERE IS ONLY ONE NAME BY WHICH MEN ARE SAVED, THE NAME
OF JESUS! But then again, Paul wasn't looking for earthly fame or fortune,
only to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ and see men saved!!!
I'll never forget when I was researching the Unification cult founded by
Rev. Moon for a Devotional I wrote on that cult years ago. To my HORROR, I
read the names of many key Christian leaders Moon bought off in order to
gain mainstream credibility. Read it for yourselves, and trust me, I don't
believe many of the things on this website, but I did hundreds of hours of
due diligence to verify that each of these men did have a relationship with
Moon as described! ( http://www.cuttingedge.org/NEWS/n1818.cfm ) You want to
know something very interesting, on this list are many of the same men who
recently backed the member of a satanic cult, Mitt Romney, for President!!!
I come under attack often for hammering people like Osteen for going on
national TV and never uttering the name of Jesus, or telling people their
only real hope is not in his latest book but in a relationship with Christ,
or telling people they will die and go to hell without Jesus. I get hammered
for calling out my friend Paula White for going on TV and refusing to admit
she is even a Christian, but a "life coach." I get hammered for holding
accountable Dr. Dobson for being part of the World Congress of Families that
was started and funded by the Mormon cult and has many groups involved who
deny the Bible and Christ.
I get hammered for calling men like Jay Sekulow, Ralph Reed, Mark DeMoss,
Bob Jones III, and others Judases for backing satanic cult member Mitt
Romney for President, worrying more about whatever short term benefits they
would have gained from their support than the souls of men who will burn in
hell for all eternity if Romney had been elected. So I am sure I will get
hammered for this Devotional today. But this is critical since we are
talking about men who have great followings, and people need to be warned
about men who have sold out the faith!
*By the way, I remember 6 years ago when I first began to warn people how
dangerous Oprah was, how people lambasted me from pillar to post for
speaking ill of this wonderful woman. Now, half the SPAM I get each day is
an email telling people how dangerous she is. I'm at least glad people are
finally waking up!
It is bad enough we have to battle the false religions and cults of the
world, the atheists, and other agents of satan for the souls of men. Sadly,
some of those who do the most damage for the cause of Christ are the ones
who people look up to as "leaders," who are more worried about building
their kingdom than God's, more worried about the temporal goals of this
world than the eternal goals of Heaven, more worried about pleasing men than
pleasing God, more concerned about their agenda than God's agenda, men who
are more concerned with the feelings of the Godless people who fill their
coffers than the eternal souls of the men they have been called to reach for
Christ!!!
This is nothing new. Paul dealt with it and warned us about this type of
compromise throughout his letters to the churches. In Revelation we read
about the 7 churches and their compromise. I always think back to that
powerful passage of Scripture in Acts 7 as Stephen is boldly declaring the
Gospel to the religious leaders who were so upset with him for telling the
truth that they took him to the edge of the city and stoned him to death.
Please don't miss this. These weren't atheists, or heathen, or Jesus haters,
these were the RELIGIOUS LEADERS OF THE DAY! Remember who was holding their
coats as they carried out this act of murder? SAUL OF TARSUS WHO WOULD SOON
BECOME PAUL!!!
I have always had a check in my Spirit about Schuller. First, he is a 33
degree Mason. What else really has to be said after realizing this man is
part of the Masonic cult? He has always had an association with New Age
icons like Gerald Jampolsky and Neale Donald Walsch, acutally featuring men
like this on his TV program and promoting their Godless books to his
audience. The bookstore at his "Crystal" Cathedral sells New Age guru
Marianne Williamson's "A Course in Miracles" that Oprah is promoting all
year on her XM radio channel. His mentor of course was Norman Vincent Peale,
another 33 degree Mason who was an absolute heretic and taught philosophies
in complete rebellion to the Truth of the Bible.
So it is no surprise that he was the host of this "Rethink Conference" last
January. The purpose of the conference was very vague. But among the
featured speakers were Larry King, Ben Stein, George Foreman, and Rupert
Murdoch. Somehow I'm sure there was no altar call from any of these men.
There was also an impressive list of Christian speakers like Chuck Colson,
Bishop Charles Blake, Gary Smalley, Lee Strobel, and others. Unless it was
to simply get paid, why would these men of God have participated in such a
circus?
I guess my question for Schuller and the others who attended is what was
there to rethink? The Gospel? The Bible? Or was this a time to figure out
how to do a better job of compromising the Absolutes of the Bible to
accommodate a non-believing world. Is it a time to figure out how to water
down the Gospel so people won't be offended? My guess it was a time to do
all of that plus fill the pockets of Schuller and those who came to his
pulpit to lead people away from God, His Truth, and faith in Jesus Christ. I
have no doubt satan was cheering on this group each moment!
I love you and care about you so much. I already know I will lose donors and
subscribers today. That is OK. In the end, it is not a donor or subscriber I
have to answer to, it is God. Listen to me my friend, a man or woman of God
only has one things, their integrity. Once you lose that, you have nothing
left. Who you associate with, who you allow in your life IS IMPORTANT! A
reporter recently asked me what I would do if the Mormon church sent me a
donation for $1 million. I told them I would cash it and use that money to
declare even louder to this world that Mormonism is a cult that is leading
the souls of men to hell. If they wanted to help fund Liveprayer to lead men
away from the lies of Joey Smith and to faith in Jesus Christ, I'll take all
of their money they want to give me.
A MAN OR WOMAN OF GOD CANNOT BE BOUGHT! OTHERWISE, THEY ARE NO DIFFERENT
THAN JUDAS!
My counsel to you this morning is this. Be aware of who your pastor or those
ministers you follow are associated with. Be aware if they are preaching
more from books other than the Bible. Have great concern if they don't end
every message or service with an invitation to know Jesus. LINE UP ALL THEY
ARE SAYING WITH GOD'S WORD!!!! There is only one Truth my friend, and that
is what God gave us in the Bible. There is only ONE GOSPEL, the Gospel of
Jesus Christ. There is no way to trick people into salvation or for someone
to get saved by accident. At some point a person has to accept the
responsibility that they are a sinner and have a conscious desire to ask God
to forgive them of their sins, repent, and give their heart and life to
Jesus by faith.
I hate to break this to Dr. Schuller, but his "Rethink Conference" was a
very stupid idea unless it was simply to make everyone who was part of it a
nice chunk of change. There is nothing to rethink. The Word of God is
immutable, it never changes. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is so simple a 3rd
grader can understand it. What Dr. Schuller should be rethinking, is why he
is part of the satanic Masonic cult, why he endorses New Age philosophers,
why he is going to allow men who deny the Bible as Truth and Jesus as Lord
to stand in his pulpit, and why after all of these years on TV he has never
once looked into the cameras and told people that they are a sinner, that
they will die and go to hell without Jesus, and their only hope is to get on
their knees and ask Jesus to forgive them of their sins and invite Him into
their heart and life by faith.
In His love and service,
Your friend and brother in Christ,
Bill Keller
