![CAN WE ACHIEVE PERFECT HEALTH?
[4 of 6] The Word of Faith preachers claim we can tap into whatever we want by using words expressed in mantras to bind the “God force” into fulfilling our every desire. But that’s a lie and just another false teaching they adopted from Hinduism. They even spread Christianese on it and fed it to the Christian Church. And they get away with it because few understand it's heresy since people don’t do their homework to be familiar enough with both the Bible and Hinduism. That’s how we’ve ended up in the mess we have today with the prospering Word of Faith movement. Here is WOF preacher, Frederick Price, and this one is just sick when you think about what it does to people: "How can you glorify God in your body when it doesn't function right. How can you glorify God?”
What?! Excuse me!? In John 9, what does Jesus say about why the sitting begger was blind from birth; why was he sitting there for so long? Jesus said it was to glorify God "so that the works of God might be displayed in him.” | image tagged in health,healing,god,bible,jesus,hindu | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/45t45k.jpg)
![[4 of 5] DO YOU WANT TO HEAR ABOUT THE FUTURE? All this Bible prophecy taking place in front of our eyes is better than Christmas! With all due respect, it's even better than a wedding; although my marriage is strong so don't misconstrue what I'm saying. My point is this: In a healthy marriage scenario, you would think the closer you get to the wedding day, the more exciting it gets, right? Now I know it's also stressful and it can get stressful before Jesus comes back too, but still the overall feeling is one of joyous anticipation, right? Without giving away the day or hour, and using Bible prophecy, God is letting us know what will happen in advance so we can be sure His book came from Him--period. It’s like this: When you were growing up, did your mom tell you things more than once, or even more than ten times? In fact, how many times did she say, "I told you a million times..." and you were maybe thinking, "Yeah mom, you probably did because, man, here we go again." Well, it’s the same with God. Throughout the Bible, with precise predictions (2000 of which have come true already), 2500 times He told us, “THIS BOOK CAME FROM ME!" So why do we want to listen to anything else! God's probably thinking, "What more do I have to give you people?" But again, with all due respect to the so-called shepherds in our Church today, if they keep Bible prophecy out of your messages, it's no wonder 50% of their congregation doubts the Bible. If we'd only listen to the Bible it would save us from a whole lot of trouble, which includes those not saved being left behind to go through the Seven Year Tribulation! | image tagged in bible,prophecy,end times,god,jesus,christian | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/3xb4ow.jpg)
![IS MEDITATION OKAY?
[4 of 4] What if we just call it "contemplative prayer,” as practiced in some Christian Churches today? You may think Hindu meditation is attractive to the world but would never snooker Christians. Unfortunately, it's been in the Church for years. Hindu evangelizing can't call it Eastern transcendental meditation. Instead, they Christianized the name. It's the same old method the devil always uses, taking old lies and repackaging the false teachings, this time with Christianese to dupe Christians into thinking the idea came from God. Meditation, now in our Church, is called "contemplative prayer.” Though it says, “prayer,” it is not from God. Still, that lie has created one of the fastest growing practices in the America Church today and it’s just plain old pagan meditation. And anyone who pushes meditation far enough, will have a spiritual encounter, but it won’t be the Spirit of God. The Bible instructs us to pray with our minds. We do contemplate (thinking deeply) while in a real conversation with God. Though that’s not what "contemplative prayer" means. It is nothing like prayer in the Church. "Contemplative prayer has slowly increased in practice and popularity among the emerging church movement—a movement which embraces many unscriptural ideas and practices.” Eastern meditation has been labeled as contemplative prayer to infiltrate Churches by claiming we will have a genuine encounter with God. Again, you eventually will connect with something, but it will not be the Spirit of God. Instead, it will be a demonic spirit that you do not want to welcome into your life. | image tagged in meditation,prayer,hindu,god,bible,demon | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/42dfhi.jpg)
![WHAT DOES "NAMASTE" MEAN & SHOULD CHRISTIANS SAY IT? Here's a good explanation: "The word namaste, pronounced 'NUHM-uh-stay,' is a common Hindu/Indian greeting often used in conjunction with a small bow and with the palms of one's hands placed together, fingers up, in front of the chest... With some aspects of the Hindu/Indian culture becoming increasingly popular in other parts of the world, yoga for example, the use of namaste is increasingly popular as well. A Christian should not say or do anything that originates from a different religion without first
examining its meaning and origin... the word itself literally means 'I bow to you'; culturally, it has come to mean, 'I bow to the god in you,' and more fully, 'the god in me bows to the god in you.' The saying of namaste is incompatible with the Christian faith. Human beings are not gods. There is only one God, and He does not share His glory (Isaiah 42:8). Bowing to or showing any sort of respect to any false god is idolatry [Ten Commandments.] Depending on the version of Hinduism, Hindu beliefs and practices are polytheistic [many gods] or pantheistic [all is god] or a mixture of both. Namaste seems to come from the more pantheistic forms of Hinduism that see everything and everyone as god. Whether you intend actually to communicate the literal meaning of namaste is irreverent. Would you say, 'You are a god; I bow to you' to someone in English? Neither should you say a word that means precisely
that in Hindi, Nepali, or any other language." | image tagged in namaste,hindu,christian,bible,god,jesus | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/411c9s.jpg)
![Jonathan Edwards, "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God” [1741]
Edwards talks about how unrepentant sinners are breathing at this moment, and not in hell already, only because of God’s mercy; giving them more time to choose God over eternity in hell without Him.
Here is part of his sermon that helped bring on the First Great Awakening in America:
"There is nothing that keeps wicked men, at any one moment, out of hell, but the mere pleasure of God.
God may cast wicked men into hell at any given moment. The wicked deserve to be cast into hell. Divine justice does not prevent God from destroying the wicked at any moment. The wicked, at this moment, suffer under God's condemnation to hell. The wicked must not think, simply because they're not physically in hell, that God is not--at this very moment--as angry with them as He is with those miserable creatures He is now tormenting in hell, and who--at this very moment--do feel and bear the fierceness of His wrath.
At any moment God shall permit him, Satan stands ready to fall upon the wicked and seize them as his own. Simply because there are not visible means of death before them at any given moment, the wicked should not feel secure.
All that wicked men may do to save themselves from hell's pains, shall afford them nothing if they continue to reject Christ."
While Edwards would still be preaching this sermon, he kept getting interrupted from people running down the aisle and dropping to their knees, asking what they must do to be saved.
That began to spread throughout our continent during the time before the American Revolution of 1776. | image tagged in christian,jesus,bible,god | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/3edkmb.jpg)
