If you believe this statement, “your pastor is more important than you are,” then you might be a cult member.
If you believe, “the most important thing that goes on in church is preaching,” then you might be a cult member.
If you, “Teach your child that there is nothing more important in the world than a church service.” then you might be a cult member.
If you believe in order to please God : “You should also have a level of dress that is above your everyday fare. If you just said, “I don’t dress up for anybody”you have a serious pride problem. You think you’re too wonderful to have to humble yourself and admit that there could actually be someone in existence that is above you socially. There is! His name is “the LORD.” You should “put on your best” to go to church.
And:
Men: wear a dress shirt and tie. That’s right, a tie, even if it’s just a clip-on. God is more important than you! Dress up for Him.
And:
Ladies: I don’t care if you think you have to dress like “Rosie-the-Riveter” during the week just to show how liberated you are, wear a dress to church. Why? Because even the God-hating world knows that a woman wears a dress when she dresses up.…
Then you might be a cult member.
If you believe this statement to be true: “The truth is that you just don’t think God is important enough to spend money on clothes for Him. But when your child is sick you’ll run right to Him and almost demand He jump up and fix him up. You’re special. God isn’t.” Then you might be a cult member.
Two words: BULL GIPP
Folks take note “This is the very definition of a Fundamental Evangelist.” This is a successful evangelist because his agenda is to set the people straight on “How to behave in Church” and he exalts the so-called M-O-g to just one step shy of god-hood. This is what those so called “Pastors” want to hear preached to their people by the visiting Evangelist.
Bull Gipp knows how to manipulate the mere sheep in the pews so that they properly reverence their local deity. This cult activity is is built on the premise, “How can you worship god correctly if you don’t worship the man-o-gawd correctly?” Notice the works sanctification that he preaches. Notice the heritical, you have to be right with God in order for Him to Love you and Bless you. It’s not who we are “in Christ” but what we do “for Christ” that justifies and sanctifies us according to Bull Gipp.
This is a perfect example of “Elmer Gantry-ism.”
And the sheeple have been so numbed by such poison as this, that they take it in and count themselves blessed to be in the presence of such annointed preaching and called™ men-o-gawd. And all the mere pew dwellers said? … B-U-L-L-L GIPP!
