    You would you label as the most influential pastors in America? Pastor Shirley Caesar? Bishop Noel Jones? Apostle Fred Price? Probably not... at least for me... those people just aren't in my circle of influence... yet they influence thousands, even millions of this countries' African American population. Last week's edition of Gospel Today. The article begins: "Before there can be a revolution, someone has to influence or change the status quo. Such persons often fly under the radar but suddenly appear from behind the shadows of obscurity; they become celebrated for what others were criticized for..." Here are some more of their 20 top influential pastors:

      The “style” in which you deliver the message has nothing to do with being a false teacher.  When someone says on Benny Hinn’s “This is Your Day” (that is your first clue) that your prayers are what enable God to act because without them, God can do nothing(Myles Munroe), that makes him a false teacher.


      Creflo Dollar teaches that true believers, if they have faith they’ll never get sick. Interestingly enough, he does this while wearing eye glasses. Also, since God created all things and had them produce after their own kind…therefore dogs make dogs; cows make cows; horses make horses;… and you and I were created by God in His image (after His own kind) that now makes us little gods! Care to defend that teaching?


      Paul and Jan Crouch…I don’t the time to enumerate all their heretical teachings.


      Kenneth Copeland and his wife Gloria have taught that you have the power to rebuke and eliminate bad weather by telling it to go away. (where in Scripture is that taught?) Kenneth said that when you sin and take it to Jesus, He will keep it from the Father so that it will only be between you and Him. In other words, Jesus keeps secrets from God the Father.  He also prophesied in Dallas TX in 1987 that Jesus spoke this through him:   “Don’t be disturbed when people accuse you of thinking you’re God. Don’t be disturbed when people accuse you of a fanatical way of life. Don’t be disturbed when people put you down and speak harshly and roughly of you. They spoke that way of me, should they not speak that way of you?”  “The more you get to be like me, the more they’re going to think that way of you. They crucified me for claiming I was God. But I didn’t claim I was God; I just claimed I walked with him and he was in me.“Hallelujah. that’s what your doing. (printed in Voice of Victory vol.15.no.2 1987) Need I say more?


      “God can’t do anything in this earth realm except what we, the body of Christ, allow Him to do. Now that statement is so–that’s so–that’s so foreign and so contrary to tradition that, like I said, if they could get their hands on me right now most evangelicals would burn me at the stake and dismember me and feed me to the crocodiles, because they’ll consider that statement to be just heresy.” This quote is from “Apostle” Fred Price (I use the term apostle loosely).  In other words, we are sovereign and God is not.  Is there a Scripture verse that backs up this teaching?  Not to mention that he tells us that Kenneth Hagin is his mentor. Yeah!! This guy is soundly Scriptural!


      Rick Warren’s loose use of Scripture and how he uses it completely out of context to make his points are clearly documented in his best-selling Purpose Driven Life.


      So you are right…by definition these people are not teaching the truth therefore they are false teachers. PERIOD!
