  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Are blessings really supposed to be sold like this? Is this the correct price point? Incidentally, her husband co-wrote Don't Stop Believing, but maybe that's not especially relevant at this particular juncture.

Yeah, I'm reminded of the 5 foolish virgins who went to go buy oil, and missed out.

Thanks for enlightening me today NxNw and Gregory Thompson with the above Paula White-Cain articles. I keep a private listing of false teacher/preachers and will certainly add her name to it. It sickens me to see such shameful people misguiding millions in the name of Christianity, but bothers me even more to learn that she's the presidential faith advisor. I defend many of Trump's actions and goals and appreciate what he's done for the Christian faith, but I sure am disappointed in his pick for a White House Faith leader. Let's hope he gets wise councel from other Christians around him.

She seems like a genuinely perfect fit for Trump and what he stands for.

Is $1000 the right price point tho? I think theyre leaving money on the table and those ready to pay a penny more than zero will also pay more than a grand.

I’ll be honest, I appreciate many of Trump’s policies, but appointing a prosperity preacher to lead the White House Faith Office was, in my opinion, one of the most damaging moves anyone in that position could have made to the public witness of Christianity. Prosperity theology distorts the Gospel and misrepresents the character of Christ. Elevating that kind of teaching on such a national platform risks confusing believers and giving skeptics more reason to doubt the authenticity of the faith.

I'm just curious. How many names are on your list?

I'm at 29, but it's a drop in the bucket compared to what's out there. I just add to the list as I happen upon an article or video about a false preacher/teacher. A simple search on YouTube is very enlightening if you're interested. It's not an uplifting area of study, but I find it interesting and prudent for a Christian to be aware of our spiritual enemies - not only to protect ourselves, but to enable more witnessing opportunities.

In just the past week I've watched many videos of Paula White, clearly showing her shameful tactics. Knowing that now allows me to steer any Trump discussion towards her, which steers the conversation towards religion and Christianity. Such is the worth of learning all we can about religion, politics, world events, cultural trends, and apologetic issues because so many things are related to our faith.

I also keep a list of companies, organizations, and people opposing God and Christianity. I have only 80, but the real number is thousands - too many to boycott, but too important to ignore completely.

I wouldn't want to share my list here, but would encourage others to start their own.

You don't have to share your list. I agree there are thousands if not hundreds of thousands. I was just curious how extensive of a list you had compiled. Personally, I don't have a list as to do a comprehensive list would take up all my time and I wouldn't have time to do anything else.

Well, he's evidently brought Laura Loomer back in. She's Jewish, but apparently pretty sound on all the essential points of right-wing Christian doctrine,

What ever she's selling, it seems she's profited from it. After declaring bankruptcy in 2014, she now has an estimated net worth of around $10M. She claims to have owned a condo in Trump tower for over 20 years. That aside, as a Christian, shouldn't the question be not how much blessing can I buy from Paula fro $1000 but how many people could I bless in the name of Christ for that same money?

Do you have knowledge that there are "other Christians" around him or are you just hoping against hope? When you use the term "other" Christians, are you implying that she is a true "Christian"?

She has the dates right for passover, when the angel of death passed over the households that had blood smeared door posts and lentil.

Passover 2025 12/4-20/4.


blessings are as rain if the ground is not prepared to recieve they will just run off leaving the hard ground unaffeted.

Count your blessings one by one, for example.
