Not sure I follow. Are you talking about the preacher?
He gets his message from God. My having a favorite should not be a reason for him to be prideful.
Would you elaborate please?

| Re: | | TJ, I think we exalt men way too much. I know some get their message from God, but, by lifting them up and saying they're my number 1 favorite is just exalting too much in man. We have a lot of young preachers doing that today. Exalting themselves, lifting themselves up with videos and cameras, ect...! It doesn't help toward humility by us lifting them up even farther.
I don't think theres anything wrong by saying, "I really like Paul washers preaching, but by putting them on a top 10 list is ridiculous and prideful, not helping our brother at all to remain humble. _________________ Lisa

Hey Nile how do you know about Josef Urban?
Only by the providence of God! I was looking at the recently commented sermons section of the main page one time and saw his sermon, "Warning to False Converts." The title sparked interest in me so I listened to it. It turned out to be one of the best gospel messages I have ever heard! I have it in mind to listen to the rest his messages that are on here when I get a chance.
How do you know of him? _________________ Matthew Miskiewicz

| Re: | | TJ, I hope your not mad at me. I couldn't tell by your last response.
A lot of christians do not realize how much they have exalted men. How much they look up to man more than God, and not believe God can do the same or even more in them.
I've just been around a lot christians who put preachers up like an idol. They Love what their preaching about, but what really gets me is that these people don't take heed to the preacher's words or else we would have revival among the remnant!
Many look at these preachers like a lovely play or song( entertainment).
It reminds me of some verses in Ezekiel
Ezekiel 33:30-33 (
Hearing and Not Doing 30 As for you, son of man, the children of your people are talking about you beside the walls and in the doors of the houses; and they speak to one another, everyone saying to his brother, Please come and hear what the word is that comes from the LORD. 31 So they come to you as people do, they sit before you as My people, and they hear your words, but they do not do them; for with their mouth they show much love, but their hearts pursue their own gain. 32 Indeed you are to them as a very lovely song of one who has a pleasant voice and can play well on an instrument; for they hear your words, but they do not do them. 33 And when this comes to passsurely it will comethen they will know that a prophet has been among them.
This group will be more accountable on judgement day than the harlot church thats for sure. We boast we know the truth and how much we love what these godly men say, but where are we truly at right now?
For the harlot church will rise up agaist this group on judgement day if they don't wake up from their slumber and be totally revived! Because they are surrounded with so much truth!
