Somehow, I just can’t seem to let go of the Word-of-Faith church I used to go to. Even though I now go to Lutheran Church of the Redeemer (LCMS) that as I have discerned, rightly divides the word of God, I am compelled to visit Living Water Ministries Inc. of Vero Beach, FL. Today, I [...]

After pastoring for forty years I can state unequivocally that the most common cause of spiritual weakness in a Christian (or a church) is a failure to recognize the flesh in its disguise of religious zeal.

Word of Faith Wrests Scripture!

Does God guaranteed perfect physical health in the Bible?
While this is a popular notion and is widely taught in the Word-of-Faith movement and popularized by the TBN network, it is a false teaching and it sadly leads many astray from the truth.
One of the best resources for understanding healing and the atonement, is Pastor Bob [...]

When I was going to my old WOF (Word of Faith) church, I was in charge of doing recordings on the computer so I can now go back and study some of the aberrant teachings. Lets take a look at the heresy that Jesus died spiritually in the Garden of Gethsemane.
