Quotes
You’re not going to be deceived by some guy with horns and a pitchfork tail. You’re going to be deceived by a silver tongued devil. –Pastor Jim Bakker
I have a prison-tested gospel today. It’s the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and that’s all that’s going to last. –Pastor Jim Bakker
“Another Jesus’ is when you take the word and adjust it for your life, instead of taking your life and adjusting it to the word. –Sherlock Bally
Narrative
How do you know if you’re being deceived? How are you going to know if you’re listening to “another Jesus”? The greatest idolatry in the world is happening in our churches today. We accuse and judge each other. We focus on being rich and wealthy. We are deceived. If you study the word, you will not be deceived. Put your faith in the real Jesus and listen to his words.
