Testimony As Being A Former Member of the Church of God in Christ

-
Part 2 of my wife's video in sharing her testimony as being a "former" member of The Church of God in Christ for 16 years. Even though the video is 37:44 as lengthy but she gives a detail description of the belief and practice of this Bible-based sect that claim to be Christian, but are controversial and questionable in nature. The Church of God in Christ is the largest Black Pentecostal denomination worldwide and has as it membership 4.3 million whose distinctive doctrines: that of holiness and sanctification.  It is "literal" in its interpretation of the Bible but are strict as to its dress and moral code.  It is also legalistic at its core teaching by which "speaking" in tongues is subsequential to the believer's salvation experience (Acts 2:1, 2ff).  The leadership of this strict Holiness sect are ill-advised as to their reading and interpretation of the Bible by which my wife was not properly taught. By the grace of God she have experience true liberty in Christ from such bondage to freedom in Christ.  Glory be to the God.

The "Coded" Language of the Health and Wealth Gospels

-
 There are "coded" languages that are communicated with those who are within the world of the health and wealth gospels known as the prosperity faith movement! First, we would think that by the prosperity faith movement being exposed by those who critical of this particular outside of the Word of Faith movement that it would have settled the case. Even though there are books that are critical of the "health and wealth" gospel for example the Health, Wealth & Happiness authors David W. Jones and Russell S. Woodbridge address the historical, biblical, and its theological analysis. But, yet, the "coded" language of this particular movement have not been addressed. (2 Cor. 11:3)  In order to reach those who are entrap within this particular movement known as the "health and wealth" that comes in the form as the Word of Faith is to break into its "coded" language. The only people who can understand such "coded" language is that

What's Truly is the Gospel?

-
 There is a need to know what the gospel is! The gospel must be clearly defined according God's Word. The problem is that there is so much diversity and variations pertaining to the gospel by which it will be difficult for the average person to understand what it truly is the gospel message. Unfortunely, there are many professing churches and church leadership who have denied people of the opportunity of embracing Christ and the gospel: that of its understanding what the gospel entails and how it is to be applied to everyday life of those who are lost. (2 Cor. 4:3-4)    A basic understanding of the gospel is that of the "good news" of Jesus Christ by which He was crucified, buried, and resurrection by the glory of God. (Rom. 1:16; 1 Cor. 15) It is important to explain clearly point-by-point what is Christ's death, burial, resurrection, and ascension. There are those who will seek to "spiritualize" the essentials of the gospel message in terms of Christ for e

New Thought and the Word of Faith Movement

-
It is very much important to know church history! There are some within the professing church today who believe that knowing the history of the church is not that important, but, to rely upon God's Word alone.  Those who believe that there is no need for the study of church history fail to understand that the Bible is a historical Book by which it records the history of the Bible, historical narratives and characters of the Bible.  It is also very much important to know Church history is light of its own history, that of the Bible, and those who made significant contributions to that of the Church today. There is the history of the church by which Church have succeeded in the propagation of the Gospel and missiology and the circulation of false doctrine and heresies that sought to destroy the faith and life of the Church today. What the contemporary church is experiencing during this 21st century is what happened in the past by which it is the responsibility of the leadership of
