Today It seems that when a church grows in numbers its called a "move of God", and the Pastor becomes famous. Some of the worst examples of Christianity to me are found in the "name it claim it" - "speak the word" crowd.I've Pastored two churches, one from the ground up and realize that those who walk after the spirit there is therefore no condemnation,and those who live in the flesh will die,God is not mocked.Usually a denomination, or group of beleivers will come up with their essentials of what they beleive based on examining the scriptures,and seeing if what they beleive can be contradicted by other scriptures which would make it fail the test of sound doctrine or passing the test and thereby being a doctrine.There are a lot of views taught as absolutes by large fellowships: eternal security,rapture,tithing, and ultimately God will judge.When I've Pastored for instance as a Assembly of God Pastor it doesn't take very long until the flesh and the spirit have a split -- people want to lean on what they see, people who rarely ever have the spirit-filled walk to pray ten minutes let alone all night try to lead by their own reasoning.The Holy Spirit will lead and guide a servant at the grace that servant is in,do you fast? pray? Are you worldly? Do you watch worldly enetrtainment,have you left all at the word of the Lord, not knowing where God is leading you,only following?My Pastor who is gone to heaven raised up five churches, he was a baptist Pastor who -- if you went to his house -- you could feel the presence of God present and he would tell you what was on your heart that you needed to know -- he had the gift of prophecy at a very mature level,yet never spoke in toungues.I've preached 18 years, have seen healings and various signs and wonders in ministry and it's my conviction that these "Word of Faith" people are some of the most flesh-walking people deceiving groups in the world.The blood of Jesus is sacred, God is Holy and we are still approaching Him as children, maybe the day will come when the gifts of the Spirit will be so apparent that these folks will lose their voice.
