Charles Stanley, David Jeremiah, and Perry Stone are false teachers who twist the Word for their benefit and avoid the tougher parts of the Bible.

You want some real ones? Try the ones who few know about, like Dave Wilkerson, Gary C. Price, Derek Price, Leonard Ravenhill, and Jim Brown of Grace & Truth Ministries.

Re: Episcopalians move closer to allowing transgender ministers....Satan has devoured the Episcopal Church
Trannys and fags can spout scripture as well as anyone else. Who gives a crap.

We've got a lot bigger problems than tranny preachers.

Gain some perspective people. This stuff is meaningless in the grand scheme of things.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 19146924


yes it is, like this "election" going on here. I have cared for tranys. They are born that way, and the body is NOT THE SOUL. There are people born IN THE WRONG BODY. The solution is to admit and deal with that most of the time and not the surgery and if there is going to be surgery, its not done when somebody is 60 already, it is too hard on the Pysche then for everyone involved. Some of these are souls incarnate to teach lessons on earth that man needs to look at. Ditto some of the gays who are here with an agenda to teach. You do not judge the body or the soul, because you do not know the mission of some people who come here. The Trany is not a global problem. Nor is it a sin. It simply IS.
 Quoting: Nobody in Particular


I'm no expert but I do believe some folks are born in the wrong body. Or should I say, their brain may be one gender and their body another.

Now some of them go through life as they are and some get surgery. I'm not going to judge or tell them that they can't get the surgery cause they're too old. It's their business what they do and when they do it.

Just like it's their business if they want to become a preacher.

It's not like anyone is being forced to listen to a tranny preach.

Re: Episcopalians move closer to allowing transgender ministers....Satan has devoured the Episcopal Church
You fucking hypocrites!

The Bible also says that adultery is a sin.. How many fuckers in church have done THAT??

Yeshua said;" To look at a woman with lust is committing adultery in your heart"

And to hate your brother, is to "commit murder in you heart"..

Those two points make the WHOLE human race murderous adulterers!

We are here to LOVE... NOT to judge.. God is judge.. And it is God who changes people NOT the church.. All you self righteous wankers do is condemn... NO_ONE was saved through condemnation, but by love.. The love of God..

Anyone without the attitude of love does not know God and will go to hell.. Walking in the Spirit is to walk in love..

Jesus said "You will be known by your love"... So what are YOU known by then?? You need to go to the cross!! And I say that with love..

Transsexuals have been with us forever.. They have the toughest of lives.. If they come to God who are YOU to stop them???

Why will people not do their own research into these "popular" teachers?

Charles Stanley should not be in his position because he is divorced. Also, he teaches "Once Saved, Always Saved" and wives conning their husbands into paying tithes: [link to fbcjaxwatchdog.blogspot.com]

David Jeremiah [link to www.atruechurch.info] and he sees nothing wrong with TBN

Perry Stone is from Pharisaical stock. Do the research into why Jesus had so much trouble with this group. Here are two words to get you started: halakhah and aggadah.

There is much more, but YOU need to do the research and analyze what is being taught. All of these men got rich talking about Jesus, yet the Bible teaches to buy the truth and SELL IT NOT.

Why not ask YHWH whom you should learn from? He has guided my steps when I hit a brick wall with these men, repeating themselves over and over again.

Christians owe it to Gays to fix them.

Since Gayness is now deemed to be genetic, science can now
provide Gene therapy to suppress Gayness the lower Xq28 stretch
of the human chromosome ... so you don't have to be Gay.

Gene Map

WHY would you want to be Gay, or wish anyone else to have
your affliction?



We can fix babies in utero so they don't have to be born Gay.

We can Abort Gay fetuses now that we can identify Gay genes.


Indeed: Applied Science CAN bring us closer to God.

Isn't that reassuring there's a cure out there for you Gay people?

INDIANAPOLIS - The Episcopal Church's House of Bishops on Saturday approved a proposal that, if it survives a final vote, would give transgender men and women the right to become ministers in the church.

The House of Bishops voted at the church's General Convention to include "gender identity and expression" in its "non-discrimination canons,"

How would you handle this situation Christian?

A Transgender person begins to attend your church regularly. Heck, she even sits next to you and belts out "When We All Get to Heaven" in the most beautiful soprano voice. She has had surgery, so she is beyond going back to being a man again. She is married and has even adopted children who are gifted, honor roll students. Perhaps even to look at her, you would never know her secret. She blends into society seamlessly......, but somehow you know. What do you do?

I had a non-church situation that this reminds me of. There was a transgendered woman who worked for a company I did consulting for. She was pointed out to me as "the freak." It's hard for me imagine how it feels to be in an environment like that.

Anyway, I started looking for ways to communicate one, simple thought: "You matter to me." But I believed that she mattered to God, so how could she not matter to me?

Yep, I'd sing tenor. :)

Re: Episcopalians move closer to allowing transgender ministers....Satan has devoured the Episcopal Church
the church: buildings where anyone who cares to attends, interacts, socializes, signs up. etc. etc. etc. They have declared themselves christians.


The Church: those who are born of the Spirit of God......given their lives to Christ.....and are indwelt by the Holy Spirit. They are recognized by God as His children. They are part of the Body of Christ. This Church is currently invisible to most humans.... with God's children scattered about here and there. They will be brought together when Christ returns.


God will at that time separate the sheep from the wolves.
