Online congregation where in the heck have Paula White been?  Hiding under a rock? Most New Yorkers and many Americans have known Donald Trump's racism for decades through his real estate policies, his hateful treatment of the Central Park 5, his blatant lies about Barack Obama's birthright and absolute refusal to apologize following a conveniently half-hearted renunciation of it just before Election Day, 2018, his divisive and insulting language against poor "sh...hole" countries of color, and on and on. Donald Trump's Long History Of Racism

Online congregation, Pakistan’s top court on today Wednesday, October 31, acquitted a Christian woman who was sentenced to death under the country’s controversial blasphemy law, a landmark ruling that sparked protests by hard-line Islamists and raised fears of violence. According to reports this Christian lady drew water and offers it to her fellow farm workers and two women refuse to drink it because the cup was touched by a non-Muslim. The Christian lady was later reported to authorities and she was arrested for blasphemy which carries a sentence of death. She was held in jail for 8 years while she appealed her case. The Pakistani high court finally acquitted her of the charges after it was upheld by lower courts. She is now free, but the 47-year-old mother of three lost 8 years for simply drawing water to offer to her co-workers. 8 years that she didn’t know if she would be freed or put to death.

Online congregation it's being reported that ALLEGED Megachurch Pastor Victor Couzens had posted over the weekend to social media a suicide note but as of now has taken it down. The dethroned bishop has been accused of sleeping with men and women and using the churches money to send women to college, luxurious trips, cars, etc. Someone said that we Christians need to have standards higher than the world. And if Mr. Couzens had a job in Corporate America he would be fired without a 2nd question besides pack your stuff we wish you the best but you are no longer fit to lead nobody not even yourself.

Good morning online congregation, it doesn’t matter who you are, what you did, how messed up you think you are, you can be saved. GOD'S hand of mercy and love and salvation isn’t short from you. With that being said I don't have a problem with what this bishop is doing everybody should do what they can. But my problem is I hate when pastors/preachers/teachers are in a rush to put a new convert out there, give time for him to build his faith and see if he truly meant what he said. Even the apostle Paul went away for a while before he started ministry. It's called discipleship! We can't be in a rush to get past that stage. According to Matthew 3:8, if we are soundly saved, we will have evidence of repentance. Zacchaeus said, “Behold, Lord, I give half my goods to the poor; and if I have wronged anyone, I will pay back fourfold” (Luke 19:8). Last week, a judge in New York said that controversial rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine would not go to jail for charges stemming from sex

Online congregation 2019 makes 20 years Tyler Perry been playing Madea and now he ain't playing her no more. Everybody finna be sad, Tyler Perry told Bevy Smith yesterday on her Sirius XM radio show “ Bevelations ” that it's time to kill off the character Madea. Tyler Perry says he’s finally retiring the character for good in his upcoming “Tyler Perry’s a Madea Family Funeral.”

Online congregation white evangelicals seem to think that increasing racial diversity harms America? Some white evangelicals were polled about attitudes toward immigration policy a couple of months ago, and they largely supported anti-immigrant policies that reflect Trump’s broader attitude to the issue. White evangelicals remain the religious group closest to majority support for a wider prohibition on bringing refugees to the United States: Forty-four percent say they would support such a ban, according to the Public Religion Research Institute poll."

Good morning online congregation, the Archbishop of Kampala, Cyprian Kizito Lwanga, has suggested that the government of Uganda deduct tithe from workers’ salaries. Speaking during a mass, the Catholic Archbishop said many Christians don’t tithe and this affects church projects, reports Citizen Kenya. “Whenever we ask for tithe, everyone gives only what they have at that time. But the Bible says a tenth of whatever you earn belongs to the church,” said Archbishop Lwanga. “Give me your support as I front this proposal because it is good for us. Aren’t you tired of putting money in the baskets all the time?” “I was told Germans make agreements with their government to deduct monthly tithe from their salaries and forward it to the church and this money they use to build and renovate their churches...

Good morning online congregation did you know Bebe Winans' HE PROMISED ME is his first No. 1 since he went solo?  Bebe Winans worked with sister CeCe in the group BeBe and CeCe Winans and the duo were dominant in the gospel genre especially in the 80s and 90s. Their last project was in 2009 with CLOSE TO YOU which topped the chart for 10 weeks!

Online congregation this pastor says don't put your kids out in the streets for being gay or getting pregnant and not being married. He says love your kids regardless of their decisions and choices because we've all done things we are not proud of.  He also says in the clip that he attended a church once where a pastor celebrated kicking her daughter out and the church applauded.

Online congregation I saw the above tweet on my timeline and shook my head......what gets me with these so call name it and claim it preachers, is that they don't apply the same logic when it comes to them, that they freely express to their pew sitters. When Paula White, Trump's head spiritual advisor is preaching against a Jezebel spirit it is nothing more then a coverup for the spirit she is of. She allegedly took over a ministry from a pastor she was in an alleged adulteress affair with after he died. Anyhow, it was reported via social media last week that Trump spiritual advisor was hospitalized October 21st. So, instead of checking into the hospital herself why didn't  Paula White declare "I'm healed" over her own body? No, sadly she can “declare” everything except “her own healing" into existence . . .” 😳🙄😣The above tweet was three days after she was hospitalized, it was for one of her followers.

Online congregation, its been a busy year in the Gospel market for lots of Billboard #1 records, but its GRAMMY voting time. With that being said, I would like to congratulate Dr.Matthew L. Stevenson lll., and All Nation Worship Group for their Grammy nod for best Gospel album of the year.

Good morning online congregation, I found this interesting, Bishop Jakes said that he get asked a lot how he prepare messages and how he decide what to speak on for Sunday. His response is what he tell the young pastors under him, I don't study to preach. I study to live and it is out of my living I preach.   It's not about how many poetic points one can string together to get a rise out of an audience. That's a performers job. What we are tasked to do as pastors is become like Christ. A living depiction of the Love of God. Then we will be able to minister in a way that draws men to God and not to ourselves.

Online congregation Bishop Paul Morton, said as pastors, if we are going to preach the gospel then we must practice the gospel. Bishop Morton has issued the above statement concerning Bishop Victor Couzens immoral behavior. I applaud and commend Bishop Paul Morton for speaking to his spiritual son concerning this matter. It's good to know that we still have men of standard among us. Men that stand for righteousness and will not tolerate such behaviors. Thank you . Source Here: 

Online congregation it look like Andrea Garrison has gotten the attention of Bishop Paul Morton, concerning the immoral behavior of one of his bishops. Some folks was saying she's acting as if the bishop committed a crime. Frist off ain't nobody saying he committed a crime, but what he did was immoral! He's a Bishop so he is held to a higher standard! Dating different women is exactly what a single man should do! However, having these women quit jobs, not renew rental leases, and prepare for a move that he had no intentions on them making is where the problem lies. I'm glad Bishop Morton is going to handle this problem.

Good morning online congregation it look like Benny Hinn, has fallen on hard times ( You Can Read About It Here ) .   Benny Hinn Ministries is being sued by Mail America Communications, Inc. for the amount of $2,993,221.74 in unpaid loans, interest, and late fees which it borrowed in the original amount of over 5.6 million. According to the lawsuit, Hinn began defaulting on his loan obligations in June of 2012 leading to a series of forbearance agreements. In July of 2018, Hinn defaulted once again on the forbearance agreement with Mail America Communications, Inc. Hinn then promised to make a lump sum payment of $260 thousand, which he also failed to pay, causing Mail America Communications to file a lawsuit for damages due to “Breach of Contract” in the amount of $2,993,221.74.

Good morning online congregation, it's being reported that Pope Francis has effectively fired the Roman Catholic bishop of Memphis (You Can Read About It Here). The unusual move came after he reportedly refused to resign following a church investigation of the Tennessee diocese mismanagement. The Vatican announced Wednesday (Oct. 24) that Pope Francis has effectively fired Bishop Martin Holley, Roman Catholic bishop of Memphis. The action by the Vatican is another indication that the Vatican under Francis is moving, albeit fitfully, to hold bishops more accountable, and not only on issues related to sexual abuse. The Vatican’s one-line statement on Holley’s resignation said only that Holley has been “removed from pastoral governance.”

Online congregation here we go again, some of these pastors are off the chains. A Memphis pastor and his wife are being accused of taking advantage of a 77-year-old woman in their church, racking up nearly $50,000 on her credit card. The family called FOX13, claiming the pastor broke his promise to pay off the credit card debt. Frederick Smith, 49, was arrested in connection with the alleged scam he and his wife committed against Clevie Williams. ( You Can Read It Here )

Online congregation in the bible David said, "Cleanse me from the faults that I don't know about, others don't know about, that I've hidden from myself, that I didn't even know were sin." Minister Louis Farrakhan said in a message last Sunday that he had a four-hour talk with R. Kelly. And said that a man like R. Kelly can’t write songs like that and not have God all up in him, but he’s got to be cleansed. Who among us really knows how much we sin? Who is really aware of how vile we are? Who even knows all the sins he has committed or are in the process of committing? Who knows how defiled we are by our flesh? One commenter said that when we see our brothers and sisters on a downward spiral, we should reach out to them instead of judging them. R. Kelly will be held accountable for anything he's done wrong as we will to.   Do you agree?

Good morning online congregation, I don't know if the lineup of speakers for the 2018 Holy Convocation of the Church Of God In Christ has been announced yet or not. While checking my Facebook notification last night I ran across the following post from Bishop Talbert Swan.

Good morning online congregation, here we go again.  I opened my Facebook page this morning and look what popped up. Allegedly a pastor by the name of Bishop Victor Couzens has been ”exposed” online by Andrea Garrison after he secretly announces his engagement to another female when he’s been in an off and on 8 year sexual relationship with Andrea as recent as weeks ago. The tearful tea-spilling video is posted on her Facebook page. He’s released a statement denying stuff saying she is crazy - that has enraged her and now there are others that are coming out about the same. Even his son commented while she was live and said she was telling the truth 🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️. ( You Can Read About It Here )

Online congregation h ave you ever had a condition and you just had to get to Jesus with it? You're tired of being broken, tired of being sick, tired of being in a low place? Cora Jakes Coleman says there's healing in your pursuit. Now I don't know about all the crawling on the floor Cora was doing but I do get the point of the message.  Some are saying Cora Jakes Coleman spoke a life changing word at the WTAL Masterclass this past weekend in Texas. Cora says sometimes you have to break the man made rules to get to Jesus, your healing and being made whole. She said she have learnt to not focus on those who are adamant in calling her by her past issues but pursuing the God that calls me DAUGHTER because she chose to pursue Him in spite of what the THEY PEOPLE say.

Good morning online congregation, the Trump Administration is of the devil, how is pregnancy a pre-existing condition? They just released a new rule that will allow states to add health insurance plans which do NOT cover pre-existing conditions. Two weeks before an election in which every Republican is claiming to protect preexisting conditions. (If you have any one of these health conditions, you could be at risk).Reading this list should scare everyone because one way or another this will eventually effect us all, if not today maybe tomorrow. Vote for what is good for you not by party, pay attention, do your research and VOTE!!!!

Online congregation this is interesting police Bible stories by Ice Cube? Granted I don't watch nothing on network tv but I'm curious about this.  I'm curious to see if this finds an audience. Ice Cube's production company, CubeVision, and The Chi co-executive producer Joseph C. Wilson are bringing the Bible to the standard procedural. Ice Cube and Wilson have garnered a script commitment plus penalty from Fox for Wilson's faith-oriented police drama, according to Deadline. The show will reimagine stories from the Bible through the guise of a police force in Baltimore. The drama's main character, Melvin Reed, is described as "a larger-than-life District Commander" and is inspired by Baltimore Lieutenant Colonel and preacher Melvin Russell. Like Russell, Reed is described as a person who "sets out to do the impossible--transform one of the most crime-ridden districts in Baltimore by transforming the hearts and minds of both his officers and th

Online congregation Former NFL WR Rae Carruth was released from prison at 8 AM this morning. It’s so many mixed emotions on social media about Rae Carruth completing his punishment of 19 years in prison. That’s a tough situation for all involved. We can’t imagine the pain and thought process of Rae, his son, and family of Cherica Adams. I get it that Rae Carruth was found guilty of masterminding the heinous cowardly crime. I also get that many folks feel he should have received the death penalty. But, our justice system did not agree with that and gave him 20 years. He did his time. Now he has been set free. I believe we should let him be, he did what was required of him. But some folks want to try him again. I can't think of but a few in the last couple of years,  that have even given Rae, Chancellor, Mrs. Adams or even Cherica a second thought until the news runs a story about them. Many of us have never been accused of ANY type of crime or been to jail let alone prison. We ha

Good morning online congregation, "If God chose His people in Christ before the foundation of the world, is it possible for those same people to then “unchoose” themselves?" What Does It Mean To Backslide? Some people use the word backslide to mean that a person has lost his or her salvation. However, I believe once saved always saved and a saved person is secure in Christ and cant lose salvation. (John 10:28–29)  Of course yes a Christian can stop praying, studying, living right.. because these are his responsibilities. You can only backslide from what you are expected to do.. This would result in 'burnt works.'  But a Christian can never backslide from salvation. Why? It's not his responsibility! The only one who can backslide from salvation is the one who's responsible for it, God. 

Online congregation this is an interesting read at Urban Faith. Millennial generation adults seem to be searching for their place in the order of life. The notion of God and Faith seem old and dated to them. Few have accepted the notion of God in their daily walk and have no appreciation for Him and His power. They have good eyes, but what do they see?

Online congregation here we go again when alleged Christians need a court to intervene on their behalf.  Harvest Bible Chapel in Rolling Meadows, IL and it's founding Pastor James MacDonald who is best known for his radio and writing ministry, Walk in the Word. Is accusing former workers of publishing false information about the church, its finances and governance in a defamation lawsuit filed Oct. 16 in Cook County Circuit Court.  ( You Can Read About It Here ) The evangelical megachurch based in Rolling Meadows is a plaintiff in the action, as are Senior Pastor James MacDonald, Senior Executive Pastor/Chief Operating Officer James Scott Milholland, Elder Board Chairman Ronald Duitsman and Elder Board member William Sperling. Several defendants, identified as Ryan M. Mahoney, Melinda Mahoney, Scott W. Bryant and Sarah Bryant — are accused of funding and operating The Elephant’s Debt, a website the church says defrauds and defames. Another plaintiff, Julie Stern Roys, is named

Good morning online congregation, God's Word is living and alive.  “I shall have…what I decree. Yes I believe, it belongs to me. So I’m gonna speak into the atmosphere.” Gospel Artist Myron Bulter made that phrase famous a couple of years ago. Some believe this can be done by the Believer while others don't. ( You Can Read It Here ) Some argue that if we take the supernatural words of God and we meditate on them until we can see the result in our hearts, then when we can SEE IT, we can SPEAK IT into existence. They're calming this is what Jesus was talking about in Mark 11:23: "For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith." Place God's Word in your heart and allow those seeds to conceive. In time, you will see the manifestation of what you belie

Good morning online congregation 'Sasha Learns to Forgive' is the first in a series of children's books featuring Bible-based lessons, from Bishop T.D.Jakes. In a Instagram post Bishop Jakes said that for most of his career he had focused on ministering to adults but now he wants to turn his attention to the children. His children books will be under the name TOMMY D. JAKES.

Online congregation, despite what some may suggest, there is no mention of permanent or fixed gender roles in Genesis 2. And nothing in Genesis 2 or 3 implies that the woman continues to be primarily identified or defined as Adam’s helper. (Do y 'all agree or disagree with that statement?)

Online congregation look at God! Apostle Matthew Stevenson announced last night during the opening ceremony of the 2018 World Changer Summits that they are now officially one church in 10 locations. I'm very excited and happy for this awesome ministry growth. All Nations Worship Assembly is one of the powerfulest movements there is. I love this ministry, Apostle Matthew Stevenson and his wife  Kamilah are voices for this generation.  A must watch Video!! The word of God was powerful!  

Good morning online congregation this is a great discussion. The Billy Graham rule is a practice among male evangelical Protestant leaders, in which they avoid spending time alone with women to whom they are not married. It is named after Billy Graham, a proponent of the practice, although recently has also been called the Mike Pence rule. Pastor Joel Osteen told the Christian Post during an interview that he follows the so-called “Billy Graham rule” ― suggesting that, in an attempt to protect his marriage, he won’t spend time alone with women other than his wife. In the interview with the Christian Post, Pastor Osteen, a bestselling author and pastor of Houston’s 45,000-member Lakewood Church, was asked if he followed the rule, and how else he stayed accountable at a time when sexual assault scandals have brought down a slew of prominent pastors.  “I do and I always have, and my father did too,” Osteen said about the Billy Graham rule. Osteen’s father, John Osteen, was also a w

Good morning online congregation, there's always all this conversation around whether you can be Christian and a Witch.  The Christians say no, the Witches say Yes, what do YOU say? Now in my humble opinion a Christian Witch is an oxymoron. God takes witchcraft very seriously. The penalty for practicing witchcraft under the Mosaic Law was death. 1st Chronicles tells us that “Saul died because he was unfaithful to the LORD; he did not keep the word of the LORD and even consulted a medium for guidance.” So tell me how a Christian can believe they can serve 2 masters? Tell me where in the Bible we can see Light and darkness living together.? When the sun is coming does the moon remain? When the moon is coming does the sun still shine? So, how can we take the Truth of the Word of God and try to make a mockery and blasphemy in the Name of our Lord?  These folks got their own website:  ( You Can Read About It Here )

Online congregation the city of Atlanta has agreed to pay former Fire Chief Kelvin Cochran $1.2 million after suspending and then firing him in 2015 over statements he published in a religious-themed book. The former Fire Chief Kelvin Cochran was officially fired Tuesday, Jan, 2015 by Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed for self-publishing a book, in which he argued that homosexuality was immoral, GA Voice reports. In the book Cochran, whose a deacon and Sunday school teacher in his church, and a member of the Georgia Baptist Convention-affiliated Elizabeth Baptist Church in Atlanta. Describes homosexuality and practices like bestiality and pederasty as “forms of sexual perversion” and describes same-sex relations as one of many “vile, vulgar and inappropriate ways” in which sinful men dishonor God.

Online congregation a comment made weeks ago by Evangelist Priscilla ( You Can Read About It Here ) Shirer were extremely problematic for a lot of people within the black community. She says she is not Black that she's a Christian woman who happens to be Black. She doesn’t want being Black to represent her primary identity because she is more than her ethnicity. Some say that the concept of "Christian first and something else second" is a fallacy. Identity is a package. Anyhow the evangelist has taken to twitter to addressed the elephant in the room.  Some are asking why would she trivialize her blackness in a time like this? Was it to make white Christians more comfortable and accepting of her?  What do you think about her response?

Online congregation can a pastor rebuild his reputation as a leader once he has fallen from grace? There are greater consequences for those in leadership who fall, that's because Scripture sets a higher standard for those in leadership, and for good reason. Just look at the negative publicity the church (and the gospel of Christ) endures of late thanks to pastors who fell off the proverbial pedestal in a public way. For all who are reading this, this is not an attack on Prophet Carn, I'm just curious that's all.  The failure of a leader is a staggeringly painful event in the life of everyone affected by that person. Some will argue that God exposes leaders by allowing them to fall....so He can break down the idolatry in the hearts of those who so admiringly follow the leader. I disagree completely.

Good morning online congregation several of these unbiblical statements listed below have gained enough traction in the years that many people believe they’re actually Bible verses. Not only are the statements unbiblical; most of them teach the opposite of what the Bible teaches. ( Source Here ) 1. God helps those who help themselves. 2. God wants me to be happy. 3. We’re all God’s children. 4. Cleanliness is next to godliness 5. God won’t give you more than you can handle. 6. We all worship the same God. 7. Bad things happen to good people. 8. When you die, God gains another angel. 9. We’re all going to the same place when we die.

Online congregation some say that a inspirational network for younger Christians is long overdue.  ABC chief legal analyst and Mediaite and Law and Crime TV founder Dan Abrams launched a streaming network on Monday “dedicated to broadcasting Christian sermons with an in-studio discussion.” "The live programming rollout is scheduled for November with simultaneous back-to-back live sermons airing Saturdays and Sundays and featuring a lineup of high-profile partners such as Victory Church of Tulsa, OK and the multi-site Fresh Life Church, led by pastor and best-selling author, Levi Lusko,” according to an announcement from Ambo.“ “Ambo TV will allow viewers to watch compelling sermons, in real time, from pastors of my generation and discuss them with other viewers from around the world. This is the type of network many of us have been waiting for, and I’m thrilled to be a part of creating it." ( You Can Read It Here )

Good morning online congregation, for me this flyer is some what interesting. It's a flyer from Bishop George Bloomer camp, of an upcoming p rophetic theology roundtable discussion taking place later this month. While observing the flyer one has to take into consideration that Bishop Carlton Pearson and Pastor Tim Rodgers are part of a growing number of pastors who no longer believe in the concept of hell.   The General of Spiritual Warfare Bishop George Bloomer is inviting all Apostles, Pastors, Prophets, prayer warriors, intercessors and leaders to this clarion call. It is time to stand on your watch. Warfarecology 2018 is 3 spiritually impactful days to help you gain I.N.T.E.L. (Inside National Territories Exposing Legions).

Online congregation I love this young preacher/pastor/teacher, he's one of the few who still preach holiness is still right. But there's quite a few online Christian women's who doesn't agree with me. Some say that his ministry has been OPPRESSIVE to women and that he preach holiness, but he also teach that Women Apostles are NOT biblical and that in order for a woman to be holy she must wear NO makeup   ( You Can Read About That Here ) With that being said just like the commenter below I don’t like the fact that the only example of holiness in the church has something to do with what a woman is wearing:

Online congregation I am not a fan of Joyce Myer's teaching at all.  While I'm some what pleased  that she feels that God has helped her recover from the horrors of Rape, I am totally disturbed by her statement that she is GLAD HER FATHER RAPED HER OVER TWO HUNDRED TIMES because she is a better person for it. Get out of here pushing that kind of foolishness on people. The God that most of us serve would never be "Glad that Women or Men are Raped." Come on rape is not God's vehicle for turning someone into a better human being. RAPE is an ABOMINATION and an ATROCITY on all levels. I can't believe people online are co-signing this.

Good morning online congregation, ( You Can Read It Here ) 45 remains a divisive presence in the United States, clinging to a very slim positive job approval rating among protestant pastors, according to a new survey from Lifeway. 51 percent of protestant pastors approve of 45’s job performance so far, with 25 percent strongly approving. In the meantime, 28 percent disapprove and a surprisingly substantial minority — 20 percent — say they’re undecided. That last number jumped out at the survey authors, who say it’s unusual to have so many unsure on where they stand on a President this far into their term. I'm thankful for the prophetic consciousness of the Black Church. "African-American pastors are the least likely to approve 45's handling of the job. Only 4 percent approve of his performance, while 85 percent disapprove. Outside of African-Americans, pastors are much more split. Slightly more than half of white pastors (54 percent) approve, along with slightly less t
