Re: Bishop SC Johnson

[QUOTE=warrior;694556]TRFrance, in order for there to be deliverance a person would have to recognize that what they are doing isn't correct. They have convinced themselves that there is no one else who can ever preach the truth except for Bishop Johnson, therefore they only listen to him even if he hasn't spoken a word in over 40 years.

There are several issues with them only listening to tapes. They don't have a leader, or visionary. Who decides what tape is appropriate for the moment? Who is anoiting and praying for the sick? Who is baptizing and ordaining more elders? Too many reasons for any person to feel that this is okay.[/QUOTE

Martha: Bishop Johnson has been dead for 48 years. My husband was baptized in the name of Jesus Christ three years ago. Have you forgotten about God and that He is able to oversee His own or do you trust so much in flesh and blood that God takes a back seat? We used to sing an old song called "God's Got a Way To Bring His People Out". My husband is an example of that. God's word is unchanging. It will be the same a thousand years from now, should the Lord tarry. If you've got a preacher giving you a different spin on it from time to time, he's lying to you. If you go to church to be entertained by the skill of the speaker rather than the truth of what's spoken, you've accomplished nothing. If you can put your mind to it you would see that it is THE WORD that leads. It should always be THE WORD that leads, not the man and the vision is The New Jerusalem coming down out of heaven and the vision of Jesus Christ coming in the clouds. What other vision matters? You words sound so very hollow when placed alongside the wisdom of God.
