These people behave like niggers. Seriously. In a video that Tucker did with a (for lack of a better term) Christian journalist who went to her church, he said the whole building was filled with blacks mostly. Also given the mentorship she received from other negro pastors, she acts like a negro pastor—fraud, arrogance, and all that entails. The whole movement she belongs to is for niggers, both racially and culturally. It just stinks of it and has little relation to traditional European, or even Middle Eastern Christianity.

I do not like low church evangelical worship. It is not for me. I will not claim someone is not a Christian because they feel slain in the spirit while raising their hands and singing along to a hillsong jam session played by their church band. More power to them if they are believers in Christ and try to follow His word. But prosperity preaching turns God into a vending machine. Even my layman’s theology can take that to a logical place of “if I ask for something that I shouldn’t get because it will hurt me, God won’t give it to me” along with the understanding that I need to align my will to His. That takes time and reverence, and I think the understanding that Christ didn’t promise us an easy path but that it is worth it and He will do the heavy lifting for us. That last part seems to always be lacking in those prosperity preacher churches.

@wgiwf@poa.st Only ever went to one Wednesday service at a Pentecostal church on someone else’s invite. They didn’t even have kneelers: there was something to make bowing forward in prayer facing backwards easy. The service was nothing to complain about, basically an enthusiastic guided Scripture study. It was about 2/3rds Black. As far as the Sunday services, I’ll always remember, on an episode of The Journey Home a few years ago (not sure which), a convert from Pentecostalism said his former congregation had, for weeks on end, an epidemic of chicken dancing! One guy became so crazed he ran into a wall during the dance and broke his arm. While enthusiasm has its place in religion, it amazes me that some think ginning up this wild state every week is evidence they’ve received the Holy Spirit.
