Featured TBN Founder, Paul Crouch, Passes Away!

Much is done in the name of God which is, in reality, devoid of God.

 

Yet GOD can STILL use it to His glory.:thumbsup:

Satan no doubt thought jumping into Judas would benefit his cause when all he really unkowingly did was go along on a ride that God had already played out to send Himself to the Cross and to be glorified.

20 You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives. Gen. 50:20

 

:smilewinkgrin:

kinda reminds me of a kin back in the Philippines. an avid fan of TBN. one day it was rainin' nails and bolts and the waters were rising fast and got to the carburetor. car went out. of course.
they sat there for three minutes in the hard rain.
then, this kin jumped out, OPENED THE HOOD, and rebuked the carburetor !!
ordered it to start, in Jesus' Name.

nuts !!!!

 

Had something similar happen during a snowstorm with an acquaintence several years ago.

I told him, "If that works, you need to open an auto repair shop."

He looked dumbly at me and said, "It doesn't work that way."

So, of course, being me, I said, "So why is it going to work that way now???

 

I never thought of comparing Judas with Paul Crouch in all honesty. I got tired of Paul Crouch because of his heterodox theology and his alleged wealth gained from Trinity Broadcasting Network. He got old and his body wore out--a contradiction to his health and wealth gospel. He even had to settle an employee's lawsuit.

 

Yep. I used to be in the WoF movement. I saw goofy things like that all the time.

I remember being at the Creation Festival with a group of folks who were rebuking the rain and demanding that it not rain. They got really mad at me when I asked if it occurred to them that maybe it was raining because God heard the prayers of some faithful local farmers and was answering their prayer for rain.

 

I'm waiting any day now for Benny Hinn to drag Paul's casket into his Living Room and place his hand upon his television for a rerun of The Benny Hinn Show.

 

Really Paul, I had never heard of that. I know I'm poking fun at TBN and Crouch, and you have said some very kind words in your posts. I truly feel compassion for his family at this time, but I truly hope this ends the false gospel TBN peddles.

 

He was a false teacher who led millions of people away from the Truth and into the darkness of a false Christ. My prayer is that he repented and recanted before his death. The grace of God and the blood of Christ is sufficient for even archheretics. Either way, God is glorified.

 

On www.christianpost.com, I found this snippet quite intriguing:

Now, where was his faith that God would heal his heart condition w/o the use of a pacemaker?

 

Paul Crouch was an upscale Gene Scott, another charlatan. Now both are gone, and the entertainment world is the poorer for that. And, BTW, I usually refrain from speaking ill of the dead, but this one demands an exception. I won't say he is the sleeziest. I’m saving that title for Robert Tilton. :-(

My wife takes exception to my picking the 'sleeziest' televangelist. She says 'sorting out a champion is something only the Almighty can do'. She probably has a point.

 

You are right about Tilton. I haven't seen him in years but I remember me and my wife laughing so hard when he gave his pitch. How anyone cannot see right through these false men I don't know. But then again I listened to Justin Peters and Jonny Erickson-Tada talk about when they sought after a healer and I guess if you are desperate you will try anything. This is why these guys are HORRIBLE. They play on the misery of the helpless to build their empires of mansions and Lear Jets. God help them when they face Him.

Did you know that Crouch was said to have had a homosexual affair at one time and was sued for plagarism an out of court settlement. I have also heard he was a drunk. He sure does fit the bill of an unregenerate man. I pray he wasn't but the fruit is tainted or rotten.
