Falseness Everywhere I Look

Concerning yesterdays post: I picked 8:30-5:00pm to work because I don’t want to risk being late and I found a daycare closer to my home which will make it easier for me to get Elijah and the boys since everything is close together.

We went to this “Pre-Thanksgiving” Celebration and boy did it suck. When we got there the pastor (I didn’t know it was church related) announced a rapper who rapped about God and gave out candy. Then he prayed so we could eat and was singing and talking to the children that was in the line. He was asking them what they wanted to be when they grow up and I remember one boy said he wanted be a doctor or something. The pastor then started singing and said these exact words:

“When you get your check remember me. Remember me. Remember me.”

Maybe it’s just me, but that was wrong. Another pastor once again exposing himself as “money hungry” just like so many others are. This is why I am very leery now when it comes to churches. The last church I attended other than my mom’s (which is one of the rare good churches) was even worst with sex scandals, homosexuality, along with the pastor actually calculating how much money he wants to earn (250,000+) a year (see http://calledministries.org) if your are interested in seeing who I’m talking about. Instead of calculating how much money you want to make you should be calculating how many souls you plan to save!

Anyways enough of my rants about fake religion which if you are biblical you will see that this is only a sign of the times. “A form of godliness, although they have denied its power(2 Timothy 3:5).

Just a little piece of information for those whom believe:

“Watch out that no one deceives you. For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am the Christ, ‘ and will deceive many. You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains. “Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me. At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come. [Matthew 24:4-14]

I’m tired of so many fake preachers and pastors and churches. I need something that’s the real deal. I’m honestly better off studying the Word on my own with the way the world is today.

    I agree with you! There’s too many out there that claims they’re all for you, they care about you, about your soul, their love is genuine, la la la… music to my years but unless if you live by example, you can’t really be saying that.

    I don’t think it’s a problem if a pastor says he would appreciate help in his prayers, but it should only be regarded to his Board of Directors or like his support group, not to the congregation. The worst is the pastors who condemn you to hell at every wrong move, at every new person they see.

    It’s sometimes good to study the word by yourself… but you should still involve yourself because it’s spiritual support ^_^
    Hope you’re able to find one!
