see this is also my thing, how come he's up there all dressed and looking like a teenager and young adult when he's a man in his late 40's maybe early 50's. Who is he trying to impress or what atmosphere is he trying to create to bring more and more spec. youth to the church he pastors? For me this kind of appealing is just so wrong....dress, act your age- YOU'RE NOT A TEENAGER ANYMORE

@mismestera that seems pretty irrelevant. so the guy has style? would it make you feel better is he was just like every other pastor and wear a $500 suit? let just stay focused on the issues.

(continued from below) -- I hope that you can try to read the Bible and find out for yourself what it's really about, not what others tell you about or what you already perceive as Christianity. For all those Christians who do breed contentment and hate, that is not what God desires. God desires for people to love each other and help each other out when life seems like it's falling apart. Just try reading it and then decide for yourself what God is really all about.

PEACE AND LOVE :-D

"All religions are not the same. I know we want them to be. We want everything in the end just to work out Ok...but to say that every religion, and every philosophy and every belief system is the same is really to dishonor the significance and value, and intelligence of human beings. We don't all choose the same thing. This isn't a facade. It's not an illusion. It's not all of us choosing different colors as our favorite color, but in the end our favorite color is simply blue."(From the sermon)

@christopherb220 I know plenty of pastors who don't wear 500$ suits.

Phillippians 2:9-11 "Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father"

@mujiel pretty sure you actually watched the video or did you just blindly comment on what you THOUGHT he was saying based on the title? Perhaps you should watch the entire 1:15 of this snippet.

Also, re the "I am the Way" statement...it may not be that he said so, but that it is a devotional statement by a follower of Christ. Writing it that way as if to say, for me or for US, Jesus is the Way...he represents the Way to God for his followers.

[jhgosnell]

It may be better to say that...for a Christian...Jesus "represents" the Way, the Truth and the Life. He represents the Divine level of existence. But, it is not so for Buddhists, etc. They have different "Saviors", Teachers, teachings, etc.

Emmanuel = a being, an incarnated Pleiadian from the Pleiades system, a son of Mary and "angel" (also Pleiadian) Gabriel.

Born around 25-27 July. NOT December 25, the birthday of Sol Invictus (Dies Natalis).

True Christianity = Messianic Judaism, 1st-3rd century Christians, Nazarene.

False Christianity = probably all "Christian" religions.

"LORD" - the name of Bhaal/Baal (LORD), a corrupt collective translation by Roman/Catholic officials of Hebrew terms.

"The scriptures say..."

"Jesus is the way the truth - the life and no one comes to the Father by Him." Wow what a telling, possibly Freudian slip.

The scriptures RECORD, JESUS stating that He is the way the truth and the life and no one comes to the Father BUT by/THROUGH Him.
