@TheGOCChurch144 The only way you get to be an israelite is by throwing your bible in the trash and making God a liar. If you think the children of israel were dispersed from their land and have suffered 2000 years of persecution to be regathered in Philly And Detroit, then fine, Your slavery hang up clouds your judgement. your racism poisons your doctrine. even your reference of 2kings 17 confirms my point. the last word is yours, I’m done here.
@krskoamp you are here to attack. You continue insisting we shoul except the slave theology of european khazars being the Israelites and the rest of the people on earth as gentiles. Take your advice….we’ll stay with truth for it have been long denied. We are the children of Israel and proclaim we’ll soon stand with our Savior. The khazars in Israel will soon be judged from on high….After the tribulation we’ll be established under Christ as the 12 tribes of Israel…Praise Ahayah.
@TheGOCChurch144 I’m not here to attack you. But its a strange replacement theology that you have, which is not backed up by either history, archeology, scripture or biology. if your heart is With God, then you’ll do the searching, but in the meantime you’re leading good people astray with this revised theology. this is the word of God and it must defended. Jews Are not Europeans, they are the seed of jacob (israel)and are a people, Gods very own. we gentiles are grafted in by grace.
@krskoamp incorrect….there’s no word such as jewish in the bible….look up “khazars” european covnverts into judaism….their edomites.
This is not open for back and forth….euroeans are not from the seed of Jacob. What’s wrong with being Jacob’s brother Esau? They still have the same mother and father. Africans are from Ham..Ethiopians, Ethiopians, North Africans Phut and South Africans Canaanites. The negroes in America did not come from either of these four hametic families.
@TheGOCChurch144 Jewish bloodline comes from Jacob who wrestled with God and was renamed Israel, its decendency from jacob that determines jewish (israelite) status, not Abraham. Ethiopian jews came from Moses. Sorry to tell ya this but Black Americans are largely from sub saharan west African stock, North east africans look more arabic, because there is a greater mix with arabs in the region. somalians, Algerians and ethiopians don’t look like black Americans. West africans Do.
@krskoamp you are incorrect. Ethiopians are from the seed of Ham not Shem….look in the table of nations. Hamites ethiopians were placed in the land once the northern tribes were displaced (Read 2 kings 17) . They are jews through bloodline of Abraham but converts. 2nd A region does not determine race. Abraham was not the same race as the people of Ur..He was from Shem. Also, The blacks in America are in fact from the seed of Judah. turn off the tv and go to the middle east. MANY BLACK ARABS.
this is a wonderful couple and i thank God they are now reading the bible for themselves and have seen through the lies of the prosperity doctrine. However although there is a specific Ethiopian group of jews who are black, its not correct to infer that blacks are israelites. Abraham was from Ur which is in iraq (gensis11:27-30) thats why jews look more like arabs than they do black african. Thats just the way it is .It does not mean we are loved any less because of it. read the WORD always

WTF. waste of a life. how many lives has this shyt ruined. im deeply depressed and in a very dark place. as ihave been for over 22years. as i have seen the deceit since i was a small child. ive never been able to convince a girl that i like her. how do all these people just believe these stories and not even fact check or learn it for themselves. PERMANENT TUNNEL VISION OR SOMETHING
The husband still seems to be defending this church when they never even met the pastor in person. Amazing they never read the bible in full, my goodness, when the Most HIgh saved me by His grace and mercy I was in my bible everyday wanting to learn of Him from Genesis to Revelation within 6 months twice, not just reading, studying, taking notes of what I learned. I wanted to know The most High who saved me, and I’m still learning.
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect.
@33locdog- And thats exactly what satan wants you to think so that he can go on robbing, killing and destroying their victims finances, their minds and their spirits. Well I’ll tell you what, if you wanna be their victim for life and let them run you to the poor house then dump you when you need their help then fine. Other than that you need to shut up and quit dictating to people whether or not to expose them because you sound like a fool!
Let God deal with some of these pastors it is not up to us to expose and uncover. Tell them the truth and move on dont slander your brother. Because to the same measure ye judge
Isaiah 45′3…………And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the LORD, which call [thee] by thy name, [am] the God of Israel.
Deuteronomy 8′18..But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for [it is] he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as [it is] this day.
I fill minister’s should teach what is written in God’s word and prosperity is in the bible. Ecclesiastes chapter 2 verse 26; God gives wisdom, knowledge, and joy to those who please him. But if a sinner becomes wealthy, God takes the wealth away and gives it to those who please him. Even this, however, is meaningless, like chasing the wind.
I’m talking about scriptures which were added a few hundred years after the original manuscripts. I’m not arguing the fact that Paul was bitten by a snake and lived. I agree with that. I’m in contention with Mark 16:16-18. Most reference bibles comment on those scriptures as being spurious. I was talking about the poison drinking. I never said anything about Paul and what he said in an argumentative fashion. I don’t understand why you said, “I still wouldn’t take those verses to heart”
@strumbo1955 yes though some of mark’s things were not found in original manuscripts it still doesn’t change the notion that these things did happen to Paul the apostle and was still alive,,, Either way I still wouldn’t take those verses to heart, because people shouldn’t test God anyway
I’m not talkin about the snakes, because people live from snake bites all the time, (such as certain Pentecostals). I’m talkin about drinking poison such as hydrochloric acid. No fool would drink it without killing himself. First, it should be noted that almost all Bible scholars agree that Mark 16:16-18 was not originally part of Marks Gospel. The doubtful genuineness of verses 9-20 makes it unwise to believe it.
@strumbo1955 clearly the scripture Jesus was talkin about was directly to the apostles ministry… I.E. Why paul was bit by a deadly snake and didn’t die…
LOL…you say I proved no point, but you still have yet to contradict me kid. You talkin about drinkin’ poison…only a fool would outright drink poison, and only one who has a death wish would think to handle a snake for the heck of it. I don’t know what backwood knowledge you have or what “churches” you’ve be spyin’ on, but in this Body of Christ we do no such thing kid. You continue to drink your iniquity punch Satan…and I’ll sip on this Spiritual juice…my hands are washed with you.
You still didn’t prove your point. I knew the deadly poison would stumble you. You continue to handle them snakes then. Jesus, whom you supposedly follow, never drank poison or handled snakes. Game over. Now go drink some Koolaide!
Ripoffs - Scams Unfortunately, as we hear every single day, being smart is NOT enough to protect yourself from dangerous Internet scams, frustrating spam, or devious identity theft
Top 10 Scams and Rip-Offs 1.Scams
and Rip-Offs} Acai Supplements and Other “Free” Trial
Offers – Ads offering trial offers for teeth whiteners, acai
anti-aging pills and other miracle supplements blanket the Internet,
including trusted Web sites of national news organizations. The
marketing campaigns often falsely claimed an endorsement by Oprah,
Rachel Ray and Doctor Oz. Thousands of consumers complained to BBB
that the free trial actually cost them as much as hundreds of
dollars, month after month.
2.Scams and Rip-Offs}
Stimulus/Government Grant Scams – Even before President Obama
announced the stimulus plan in February, scammers had already set up
schemes for misleading consumers and small business owners into
thinking they could get a piece of the pie. Offers for worthless
assistance and advice on how to get government grants bombarded
consumers online, over the phone and via mail and e-mail.
3.Scams and Rip-Offs} Robocalls
– Owning a cell phone or having their phone number on the
do-not-call list did not help thousands of people across the US put
a stop to harassing automated telemarketing calls in 2009. The
robocalls often claimed that their auto warranty was about to
expire—which wasn’t true—or offered help in reducing their interest
rate on their credit card. The prevalence of robocalls violating
federal telemarketing laws prompted the FTC to increase restrictions
on the practice in 2009.
4.Scams and Rip-Offs}
Lottery/Sweepstakes Scam – The victim receives a letter in the mail
pretending to be from Reader’s Digest, Publisher’s Clearing House or
a phony foreign lottery claiming that he or she has won millions.
The letter comes with a check that represents only a portion of the
total winnings. In order to get the rest, the victim has to deposit
the check and then wire hundreds of dollars back to the scammers
supposedly to cover taxes or some other bogus fee. The victim wires
the money, but the prize never arrives.
5.Scams and Rip-Offs} Job Hunter
Scams –Scams targeting job hunters vary and include attempts to gain
access to personal information such as bank account or social
security numbers and requirements to pay a fee in order to even be
considered for the job. Another common scam was reported to BBB by
job hunters who were told by a prospective employer that they had to
check their credit report before being considered for a job. The job
offer is actually a marketing ploy for online credit monitoring that
costs the victim every month until they cancel.
6.Scams and Rip-Offs} Google
Work from Home Scam – Countless Web sites cropped up in 2009 that
claimed you could learn how to make money from home using Google or
Twitter and offered a free trial of learning materials. The Web
sites often included the Google or Twitter moniker and logo. As a
result, many people who complained to BBB thought they were getting
a job with Google or Twitter when in, fact, they were being lured
into another misleading free-trial offer and were billed every month
for the materials and other mystery charges that added up to
hundreds of dollars.
7.Scams and Rip-Offs} Mortgage
Foreclosure Rescue/Debt Assistance – Many families are struggling in
the current economy and hucksters are offering to help them save
their house from foreclosure or help them get out of credit card
debt. Unfortunately, victims are paying hundreds of dollars up front
for the assistance they desperately need but ultimately never
receive.
8.Scams and Rip-Offs} Mystery
Shopping – Consumers across the country thought that they could make
some extra money by becoming a secret shopper and evaluating the
customer service of various stores. The victim is asked to evaluate
their shopping experience at a few stores as well as a money wiring
service such as Western Union or MoneyGram by wiring money back to
the scammers. A seemingly real looking check is supposed to cover
the costs, but ends up being a fake. The victim is out hundreds, if
not thousands, of dollars.
9.Scams and Rip-Offs}
Over-Payment Scams – Over-payment scams typically target small
business owners, landlords or individuals with rooms to rent and
sellers on classifieds or sites like Craigslist. Typically the
scammer pretends to be a customer, possible renter or interested
buyer, respectively. The victim receives a check for more than the
amount requested. The scammers then ask the victim to deposit the
check and wire the extra amount elsewhere, such as to a shipping
company. Ultimately though, the check is fake and the victim is
really wiring money back to the scammers.
10.Scams and Rip-Offs} Phishing
e-mails/H1N1 spam – A perennial problem, phishing e-mails pop up in
inboxes and can take various forms such as appearing to be from a
business, a government agency or official or even a friend. Whatever
the setup, the goal of any phishing e-mail is the same: to trick
victims into divulging sensitive financial information or to infect
the victim’s computer with viruses and malware. In addition to
phishing e-mails, spam e-mail selling wares to prevent the spread of
the H1N1 virus were particularly rampant in 2009.
