As someone who is involved in setting up Christian TV channels, I feel it is important to state that FINANCIAL REALITIES DO NOT TRUMP GOD'S COMMANDS NOT TO BE PARTNERS WITH FALSE PROPHETS/TEACHERS.
In other words, just because a certain preacher can raise a lot of money from people on TV and can pay handsomely for TV time, does not mean that it is God's will that his or her message be heard on TV.
The influence of Television is Massive. True Christians SHOULD be aiming to get hold of this medium. It is the best medium right now for preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ to the whole world.
But what Satan has done is this: he has poisoned the chalice of much of Christian television. Instead of being a pure stream of God, it has become many times a kind of haven for false prophets, false teachers, religious politicians, carnal compromisers, men pleasers and others money hungry people who suppose that godliness is a means of gain, and that huge influence is proof of God's blessing.
If someone is teaching heresy, and those in charge of a Christian channel come to know it, IF they continue to allow it on their channel, then THEY ARE PARTNERS WITH THE FALSE TEACHER.
If someone comes on TV using deception and false prophecies to pull money out of people's pockets, and those overseeing the channel don't stop it, then THEY ARE PARTNERS WITH THESE LYING FALSE PROPHETS.
What should it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his soul? We need to fear God. Better for our TV channels to go down than to depend on false prophets and false teachers for their financial viability.
How can Christian TV networks tolerate the presence of someone like
John Hagee who is now selling a book in which he claims that Jesus is not the Messiah to the Jews?!? How can Christian TV networks toler

I encourage everyone who is outraged at what is happening to todays church to be strong in the Lord. Get right with God and have him use you as a vessel for spiritual warfare.
Why TV ?
My question is why do Christians watch so much television instead of reading the Word of God??? Yes,there is anointed preaching on television but not all of the programs are from God and some are wolves in sheep's clothing..God tells us to search for Him with our whole heart and we will find Him....The Word of God is a healer Psalms 107:20; it makes free;, John 8:22; bears witness John 20:31; produces faith Romans 20:31; makes wise 2 Timothy 3:15-17; exhorts 2 Timothy 4:2; rejoices the heart Jeremiah 15:16; regenerates James 1:18; illuminates Psalms 119:130.....The Word of God is a lamp Psalms 119:105; a fire Jeremiah 4:14; a hammer Jeremiah 23:29; seed Matthew 13:18-33; a sword Ephesians 6:17....The Word of God will never become outdated as the books of men become... I encourage everyone to search and find for themself just what God wants to have you learn and not to rely on others for what He speaks to you will be perfect for whatever your circumstances are .....

The masses watch TV, so we should use it
Its true people can often get more from the Lord if they get into the Word for themselves and seek God for a personal relationship. But because people are lazy and lots of people watch TV we should be concerned about influencing what is going on there.
You are quite right, I flip
You are quite right, I flip between TBN and a local christian station. The local station has a broadcast "The Shepherds Chapel" with pastor Arnold Murray that I look at on a daily basis because he actually reads and translates the Word, book by book, chapter by chapter, and verse by verse. Everyone else is watered down.
Hi Thanks for your post.
Hi
Thanks for your post. God's Word says men's hearts are wicked and that all men like to speak good of themselves. We need to be careful to what we listen to. We need to read the bible for ourselves and not let the preacher read the bible for us on sunday or tv only. I think the reason why so many Christians are decieved is that we only listen to what preachers tell us and dont read the bible for ourselves
The other day I got hold of some Jehovah's Witness material and after reading through it i could see text that were contrary to what the Word of God says
Big thanx
Brother Michael,
i am very blessed by your site. Every day in my sparetime i come and feed my soul through different messages that contribute to my spiritual growth.
I am Congolese (Congo-Brazzaville-Africa) and i am living in South Africa now.
Thank you for opening my eyes about the "harlot", because these wrong teachings given by its "vessels" or "mouthpieces" are also gaining ground in so many churches in Africa and polluting the African church environment.
Thanx also for the links
In Christ,
Your Brother, Brice.
