How can anyone believe him? Does he even believe it himself? I just saw him on Primetime Live and I got the most sickening and disgusting vibe from him like he were evil incarnate.

Actually he is an usher for the anti-christ. It is just another disceptive move under the influence of satan. It should be eye opening to those that are in Christ. Isn't it amazing how easy this guy has deceived all of those people. The natural mind has no choice but to be a follower. It is why we need the Holy Spirit to give us discernment to know the Truth. If Truth is not in someone then the need for truth is so strong that they can be led right to the slaughter. The real anti-Christ will be even more charasmatic and convincing to humans. He will arise like he is Christ and be saying everything that the mind without Christ wants to hear. After he has disceived millions into accepting the mark of the beast, he will then turn very evil. If you are attached to God's belt loop you have nothing to worry about. You MUST have the gift of discernment working because the Bible warns that even the elect could be disceived. Which means the natural mind will be drawn to this figure like a mouth to light. The problem is that the light is self generated by satan himself. You need to renew your mind daily in the Mind of Christ and stay under the anointing at all times.
Jesus Is Lord!

This guy is taking advantage of all the uneducated people who believe him. The problem with Christians is that they pick out what they want to believe and ignore what they don't agree with. I know a priest that was asked what he believes and he said well I believe this and this from my church but not this and this. Christians in today's world don't have any reliable information since the Bible has been changed to people's likings so many times, that's why so many Christians changed their beliefs into atheists who do not believe in God. Also this isn't the only person who is guiding people t the wrong path, their are so many priest that have rapped little boys. It is sad what has happened to Christianity, thank God Islam has never been changed by anyone and we memorize the Koran so if anyone does try t change the teachings of Allah we can disregard their changes.

Kind of illustrates the old saying that "If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything." It's interesting how people can read the Bible and come off with a theology that goes against the God of the Bible. That's why we need the Holy Spirit to lead us in understanding.

I listen to this man in an interview. It seems he was in jail and asked Jesus into his heart. His perception from that point was that Jesus was in him and became him. There have been several people who have listened to his sermons. He preaches much the same as Joel Osten, although Osten doesn't claim to be God.
The number of people flocking to him seems to indicate a large number of people hungry for God who have felt uncomfortable with other Christian leaders. Hopefully it won't escalate into something worse.

Yep, I heard about him too. The Bible warns us against false prophets (i.e. Rev. Moon, Joseph Smith, Mohammed, the crazy guy on the street corner) and this guy is no exception.
People who think like this really, REALLY need mental help.

He's in to make money. You see, he figured that there are enough easily persuaded people out there that are willing to follow anything and anyone. Why not create some negative publicity and make some money in the process?

He's just another shyster in a long line of shysters.
And the fact that he has hundreds of thousands of followers just serves to illustrate one thing; christians are gullible enough to believe ANYTHING.

His "elevator" doesn't go all the way to the top floor.
He's a few cents short of a dollar.
But, most of all, he's a leading candidate for Hell since he claims he is God.
Just one of many false prophets.

Very, very simple. There are always enough idiots in this world to give you money. He is a financial wizard.
What he is doing is simply a legal way to become rich quickly. He learned it in prison.

175. Relate to them the story of the man to whom We sent Our signs, but he passed them by: so Satan followed him up, and he went astray.
176. If it had been Our will, We should have elevated him with Our signs; but he inclined to the earth, and followed his own vain desires. His similitude is that of a dog: if you attack him, he lolls out his tongue, or if you leave him alone, he (still) lolls out his tongue. That is the similitude of those who reject Our signs; So relate the story; perchance they may reflect.
177. Evil as an example are people who reject Our signs and wrong their own souls.
