Communion Supper Exhortation
Laodicea Church Rev.3:14, "I know your deeds...cold or hot...
spit you out of My mouth.......poor, blind, and naked....
so that you may see........be zealous and repent....
I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me."
Seven churches in the first few chapters.
Rebuked for having lost their first love.
John 6, we must eat of His flesh and drink of His blood
in order to abide in Him.
The Judeo's have proclaimed a phony love, apart from baptism and communion.
Consider the great sacrifice He made, and stay away from ceremonial rituals and traditions which make void the word of God.
With gratitude and thanksgiving, take the opportunity to repent,
and judge His body rightly,
as He took away all your diseases and illnesses.
May we be found grateful and thankful, as we obediently eat of His flesh
and drink of His blood, as we partake together.
HalleluYah!
 
 
Sermon Notes. November 22, 2009. Message title: "Faith Fools."
Many people have been hurt by playing church.
"Caution: Religion can be dangerous to your health and happiness."
was the title of a sermon preached over 30 years ago.
"The Needed Ingredient to Have the More Working of Faith."
Galatians, "Faith working through love."
The churches today are a fraud.
This is part six of the "Getting Greater Faith" series,
entitled,  "Faith Fools."
Satan has love preached to stop love.
The children of the devil sing, "All We Need Is Love."
The "We," were the "THEY," as they seek to destroy through phony fake love.
The churches are ordaining child pedophiles, lesbians, girly boy homosexuals, and have made us love fools.
Satan has stopped faith by having his children teach and preach faith.
Faith fools and faith foolers, where both are sinners.
Deception is a two part sin, as both deceiver and deceivee are sinners.
The wolf and the deceived sheep are both sinners.
Don't let Satan make faith fools of you.

 
 
Satan tried to make Jesus into a faith fool.
He attempts to do this to many today, and he doesn't change his tactics.
Matthew 4:4, "Every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God."
"Throw Yourself down.......bear you up....against the stone...
You shall not put God to the test."
Satan tried to make a faith fool out of Jesus.
Satan quoted scripture fairly accurately.
Psalm 91, "Against a stone."
This was one case where Satan was a faith fooler.
 
 

 
Satan has children that appear as ministers of light.
2 Corinthians 11:14, "And no wonder,
for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light."
They are faith fraud peddlers and charlatans.
Faith foolers peddle a phony fraud faith.
His hucksters named, Kenneth Copeland, Pat Robertson, and Oral Roberts,
to name a few. One said he never uses names.
They use ideas like the Oral Roberts campaign, and none teach baptism.
Beware of the wolves in sheep's clothing.
They proclaim faith to stop our faith.
1 Timothy 1:5, "Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned." KJV.
Feigned faith is used as a fraud.
There is sincere faith and also insincere faith.
Insincere faith uses the false prophets
1 Timothy 6:5, "These people always cause trouble. Their minds are corrupt, and they have turned their backs on the truth. To them, a show of godliness is just a way to become wealthy."
2 Peter 2:3, "In their greed they will make up clever lies to get hold of your money. But God condemned them long ago, and their destruction will not be delayed." "And in their greed they will exploit you with false words; their judgment from long ago is not idle, and their destruction is not asleep."
They will make merchandise of you,
as they peddle faith, making faith fools of you.
Counterfeiters laughing all the way to the bank,
as they fly around in their 20 million dollar Gulfstream jets.
Oral Roberts sells a holy water container,
and it says, "Do not drink." right on the bottle. 
Years ago, he used the, "Take me home, Lord, over the million dollars,"
fund raising project.
A Florida race track owner paid the money, as the ministry went to the dogs.
Pat Robertson uses the soft sale gimmick.
Jimmy Baker used the time share con.
The Catholic Church sold indulgences for a price.
The false prophets still collect money with their con's.

 
 
 
 
A wolf in sheep's clothing faith confidence Con Game is explained.
Matthew 7:15, "Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves."
The Golden Faith Power Pen.
The preacher uses this illustration of, "The Faith Fool Spiel."
"I want the saints to prosper, with God's secret for prosperity."
Revelation 3, "I advise you to buy from me gold refined by fire....
white garments.....eye sauvé..."
Read it again and get the secret that is hidden in plain sight,
"I advise you to buy from me....that you may become rich."
Say, "I want to be rich, because Jesus wants me to be rich!"
If you want to be rich, then you must buy, you must buy!"
The golden faith power pen...for you to buy."
Its design was given by faith, prayed over by faith,
use it by faith, and you'll get rich.
God spoke to him, "Let them buy the pin for a 1,000 or
10,000, as this pen works on the power of 10."
Send 1,000 or 10,000 to the ministry.
Why should I pay 1,000 dollars for a pen?
Would you pay 1,000 dollars for a goose that laid a golden egg?
Yes, you would, for the golden goose egg layer.
You would be a bad steward if you didn't buy the goose.
Some will say they don't have the faith.
If you were sick and going to die, then you'd get the 1,000 dollars somewhere.
Many grandmas would get the 1,000 to you.
You get the 1,000 and 10,000 back and ten more back.
You'll never go wrong with God!
Let the sheep of little faith send 100 for ten months, or 1000
for ten months, and you get the golden faith pen.
I want you to be rich, and God wants you to be rich.
If you want to be rich, you've got to buy, to buy.
Give the golden faith pen one year.
You are patient with the goose, to drop the golden eggs.
Use the affidavits of successful tithers as the enticement to buy the pen.
Grandpa Jones bought 5 golden pens for his 5 grandchildren.
Grandma Nelson called and was grateful for the golden faith power pen.
Golden faith power pen wrote the check and the check cleared.
Give it faith, and give it time.
The secret in the pen is in the ink.
Ink is like blood, but it is not red ink.
The life of the man is in the blood.
Blood is mostly made up of water, living water.
Ink is mostly water.
Make holy water and pray over that water and make it into miracle ink.
This pen contains holy ink.
Jesus, with faith, could walk on water, and Peter did until he doubted.
You will rise and be successful financially,
as you walk in faith and use it in faith.
Use this ink and you'll get rich.
10,000 for the pen and in one year you'll get back 100,000.
1,000 and you'll get back 10,000.
God said to tell you that I am to guarantee you it works.
If you'll use it in faith, it will give you the money back in the power of ten.
Money back if you don't get ten times your money back in one year.
1-800-BAH-FOOL, dial right now, we take all major credit cards.

 
 
The preacher could be as good a charlatan as those out there.
A past sermon series entitled, "The Heart of the Matter," pointed out the frauds.
One sermon illustration used the idea of going back into the birthing canal,
as a sham re-birthing experience.
A year later, the swindlers were celebrating this as a money making racket.
Today's sermon illustration maybe used by some down the road. 
Plastic pens are bought for 50 cents each, with mailing.
1,000 respond and the 50 bucks interest is made on each 50 cent investment.
Hold their money for one year, and make 500 in interest.
Most don't admit they were fools, like the emperor that had no clothes.
"Give it one more year!" and many will say OK, and the interest piles up.

 
 
 
You can make millions in the faith fraud racket fleecing the fools.
Faith peddling charlatans, had burned this rich man with their tricks.
Men like Benny Hinn, and Pat Robertson,
and he went broke and lost considerable wealth.
They all told him, "You didn't have enough faith!"

 
 
 
They appeal to you in different ways.
1 John 2:16, "For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world."
This friend wanted the faster horse, more money, and a bigger ranch,
as his greed factor kicked into overdrive.
Vanity of life, with a 20 million dollar Gulfstream jet, and it works for me.
A faith fool story, where wealth was the lust of eyes.
This one man was in a mid-life crisis suffering from the vanity of life.
He hurt his knee in his late thirties.
He attended a basketball clinic and he got hurt.
The preacher related his story as, "This man's sport was rodeo."
Be a prudent man or woman of faith,
and don't be tempted by the vain goriness of life.
The preacher was In his thirties,
and a member of the Colorado Amateur Rodeo Association.
Bruce Ford's bronco riding school.
He wanted the belt buckle, for the vanity of life.
Many of the rodeos are on Sunday.
Some rodeos are on Saturday.
On this Sunday, at Castle Rock, we go to church and have communion,
and then it's off to the rodeo grounds.
Behind the shoots and get ready to ride the horse, win and be the champ.
Stoney Burke was a 60's TV rodeo cowboy.
He had a Bronc saddle, and he always carried it this way.
Music western, rodeo cowboy, western music,
this is a champion rodeo man, get me some appropriate music.
The Lone Ranger music played.
Set the saddle down, and it's hard working with these radio ranch wranglers.
Sitting with these other cowboys, getting ready in the saddle,
feeling like Stoney Burke.
One horse is trying to climb out of the shoot. The preacher drew this very horse.
The most dangerous thing is that the horse goes over backwards in the shoot.
He wasn't scared, as he was standing in faith from Psalm 91,
"Angel in charge...foot against stone.."
Angels will help me, or so he thought.
Use the Bruce Ford Rodeo School technique to get in the saddle.
He comes out and blows and bucks, and the spurs come back,
and you get in time with that horse.
The flank strap makes the horse buck.
He sat down fast and he had the spurs at the shoulder.
He didn't get bucked off, but the horse didn't buck, so he fell off.
A woman was supposed to tie the flank strap,
but she didn't get it done, and the horse didn't buck.
God will make a real fool out of you, as the preacher feel off the horse.
The preacher was off to the side, and he landed flat on his back.
No angels were their to catch him, as Satan made a faith fool out of him.
He won no rodeo belt buckle prize.
The preacher got hurt in the middle of his back, as he landed hard.
He started getting sick, as his heart was beating at a very rapid pace
all the time, and he had a major thyroid problem.
He ended up getting it burned out with radiation.
When God chastens you, you don't forget it!
Don't let Satan make a faith fool of you.

 
 
Conclusion.
Satan's children have his minions preach faith so you turn away from faith.
It's too late to learn how a parachute works,
when you have already jumped out of the airplane.
It's their, "Named it and claimed it!" doctrine, 
as these charismatic churches laugh all the way to the bank.
Malachi 3:10, reveals God's plan of propserity.
"Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test Me now in this," says the LORD Almighty, "and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that you will not have room enough for it."
We'd rather buy the holy water and faith power pen.
God says, if you love Me, you will do it.
The ingredient needed for faith to work is love.
Phony love and phony faith teachings have made many shy away from the true teaching, as they might be compared to these charlatans.
Don't be a faith fool.
Closing prayer in accordance with Numbers 6:24-26.
"We've Got An Everlasting Love For You," as the closing song for this sermon.
