Brother Lee Stoneking's Preaching

But, with all the preaching you post on your channel have you critiqued that as well?

Believe me I filter that stuff. I listen to hundreds of messages that don't make the cut. If someone gets too far out there I will not listen to them anymore. There's more people on that list then Stoneking. Which when he does Bible teaching I don't mind listening to him. But when he starts telling stories about this one guy he met one time I know uh oh, this is going straight in the ditch. But 90 percent of his Preaching is stories, I wish he would preach the Bible.

This is my favorite out of all of them.

His analysis is preposterous.

Scott, this is from the writings of Apollodorus of Athens, can you translate this for me? τρίτην ἔκτεινεν ἐν Κρομμυῶνι σῦν τὴν καλουμένην Φαιὰν ἀπὸ τῆς θρεψάσης γραὸς αὐτήν: ταύτην τινὲς Ἐχίδνης καὶ Τυφῶνος λέγουσι.

Bro, you only showcase Apostolic Pentecostal preachers. Which ones made it to the ...ditch? You can PM me if you wish. I would very much like to review the ones who you deemed unworthy.

It’s a trap

[votivesoul]

Consider all the times Lee exhorted people, before he ever preached, to stand up, lift their hands, and praise and exalt the wonderful, matchless name of Jesus Christ.

Tens of thousands have obeyed that exhortation, and countless sessions of worship and adoration of the King of Kings has occurred, and countless breakthroughs and miracles, as well, that no one but the person who experienced them, will ever know about.

Anything that may get said after that exhortation is kind of meaningless to the person who received from the Lord.

And maybe you don't need that exhortation, or from him at least, to praise and exalt the wonderful, matchless name of Jesus and break out into a session of worship, but I've been places where he has preached, and there are always lots of folks there who are just barely hanging on, or who have never really grabbed hold to begin with, and standing up, lifting one's hands and surrendering themselves to the Lord in worship is the best thing that could ever happen to such people, and let's be honest, some people DO NEED the exhortation to come from an external source like Brother Lee, because their faith is low, and their joy is gone.

Look at the various prophets in Acts. It reads of them that their main task was to "strengthen the brethren". How then can a brother or sister be strengthened by the ministry of a prophet unless they are first weakened?

So, let the critique go, already. He's still your brother, a child of God, and he is the Lord's workmanship, and to critique him (or anyone else) is to offer a critique of the work the Lord is doing in, on, and through him, to get him to where God wants him to be.

I appreciate 1ofthechosen, and his efforts to bring forward Apostolic preaching.

If there are some who are discarded, or "blind guides" I would like to know who they are and see for myself.

Exhorting people doesnt validate the person doing the exhortation.

Anything said? "Like there angels that fly over my house and I can feel them." Tell me why these types of statements do not matter.

Its called accountability, and not letting someone hype you up with crazy claims to get you to respond to emotion rather than God.

Some of LS preaching may be fine, but preachers dont have the luxury of "sometimes its in the book" and "sometimes its make believe"
