The prophets are unique, in that God chose to use them differently.

Every preacher has to be WHO HE IS if he is going to be effective for the Lord. If he tries to be like someone else, he is going to be ineffective. God is a God of variety: • Cloud formations are different • Trees are different • Flowers are different • Birds are different • The fish in the sea ...read more

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 27, 2022

I find it hard to believe what many of these television preachers preach and teach most of the time. Much of it is UNSCRIPTURAL AND RIDICULOUS! They make the Lord’s work look bad! When one comes up with a new idea for making more money, the others seem to follow. I am sure there must be some good ...read more
