Prove The Television Evangelists

Now these [Jews] were better disposed and more noble than those in Thessalonica, for they were entirely ready and accepted and welcomed the message [ concerning the attainment through Christ of eternal salvation in the kingdom of God] with inclination of mind and eagerness, searching and examining the Scriptures daily to see if these things were so. Acts 17:11
For the first time in several years I watched a television evangelist this morning. He was talking about the end times and the seven signs that must first come before Jesus can return. The funny thing, not one of those seven signs was that the Gospel of the Kingdom must first be preached to every nation, tongue, and tribe.
And this good news of the kingdom (the Gospel) will be preached throughout the whole world as a testimony to all the nations, and then will come the end. Matthew 24:14
There is only one sign that will truly show us that Jesus is ready to come back and that is when our Father uses us to preach in the full power and demonstration of the Holy Spirit to everyone everywhere. How could this “doctor” and his “doctor” wife fail to mention the only sign that Jesus told us to look for?
I also marveled at how many times that the show mentioned his name. Beware of anyone who likes to have their name mentioned so much! Pray for these people, they are wolves in sheep’s clothing. They feed on peoples fears and try to make the Gospel fit to it. He also called President Obama the worlds end time dictator, really? He never prayed for the President as the Word tells us to, 1 Timothy 2:1-2. And hasn’t he noticed, that no world leaders are listening to the President. Russia, China, Europe, Israel, and the Middle East all ignore what he has to say. If he is the last world dictator, he is a lousy one and I have never seen the man dictate to anyone. He has operated just like every other President in my lifetime. I may not agree with what he has pushed, but he never dictated it. He has his policies just like every other President had theirs.
What this false evangelist was teaching was playing on peoples fears and of course he had a tape series to sell that would offer more details. Another note, the Truth is that our Father freely gives His messengers their messages and then He causes us to freely give them away, Matthew 10:8. So if anyone wants to charge you for a so called message from God, turn and run. If you are led to watch these guys, prove what they say with the Word. Also if they claim to have a prophesy watch to see if it comes to pass. Prove and search the scriptures to test what everyone is saying. And if they are correct pray for them to be used more and more by our Father and if they are wrong pray for them to be set free. Pray that they come to know the Truth and that the Truth sets them free.
