    Moody’s Chastisement of Spurgeon over Cigars

    D.L. Moody went to London to meet Spurgeon, whom he had admired from a distance. However, when Spurgeon answered the door with a cigar in his mouth, Moody was in shock. “How could you, a man of God, smoke that?” protested the great American evangelist. Spurgeon took the stogie out of his mouth...

    Megachurches and the Prosperity Gospel....

    I have another thread in which I would classify Mega-churches and prosperity gospel teaching as Laodicean... Have we all become Laodicean? I believe that most of these ministers live to become public figures and to profit from the exposure. Past preachers worried about false prophets, today's...

    Have we all become Laodicean?

    I use to be a counselor at a youth camp with bible study in the morning and church services at night. Our denomination got one of those Laodicean minded directors who showed James Dobsin flicks in the morning and a carnival type atmosphere at night. The last night they bring in a Christian rock...

    Have we all become Laodicean?

    There is a Baptist church that moved out of the city and into a large facility in the country. I decided to visit. What they did before service was divide the young people from the rest of the congregation. Somewhere in another building I could here the loud beat of gospel rock emanating from...

    Have we all become Laodicean?

    One of the most troublesome thing to me in this age is the dissipating view of the pre-trib rapture of the church. Few anticipate Christ's return these days and for the most part live for the moment.

    Have we all become Laodicean?

    Most of the people in my Pentecostal Holiness denomination dream of going to Liberty University in Lynchburg. My pastor has a Masters degree from there. My niece got accepted there also and eagerly anticipates the experience. Hats of to Jerry Falwell! I believe that is a good work!

    I believe that the Laodicean church has her roots right here in America!

    Have we all become Laodicean?

    I must say though, that the Baptist churches can work the times and the seasons to their advantage as long as they keep Christianity sardisean, or elegant as a gem, and not get overly Laodicean on us.

    Have we all become Laodicean?

    After we went home I tossed on the bed before going to sleep and wondered why God did not do for me what he had done for mother and what he was doing in that meeting for those young people at the altar. I could not understand it. But I resolved to keep on trying, and so dropped off to sleep. The...

    Have we all become Laodicean?

    The 1800's testimony of GC Rankin, who started out in a Sardis church, and then got it good in a Philadelphian. This is my testimony as well, only 100 years later!

    Have we all become Laodicean?

    I was brought up Baptist and then Spirit filled in Pentecostal Holiness revivals. If you travel South Western Va most of the older white looking churches are Methodist from the 1800's, and most of the more modern churches are Pentecostal Holiness. Here in the 2000's the churches are dissipating...

    There are remnants of previous church congregations. We still have a Messianic, Orthodox, and Catholic church for example.

    4. The Thyatirean Candlestick: Catholic Church Age (Charlemagne) It would be as an estimate that the Thyatirean Church age began with Charlemagne, who was a champion for the cause of Christianity. Appalled by the illiteracy of his time, Charlemagne imported scholars from Ireland, Britain, and...
