Sisters and brothers in Christ, there are alleged claims that Pastor Ronald Harris, Sr. who was gunned down while preaching was having an affair with the deacon's wife. Then, there is an alleged claim that Woodrow Karey (shooter), wife filed a police report, accusing him of rape, which may not be true. Now, it's still very bad Woodrow Karey Jr. did not have respect for God and murdered this man in front of his congregation.  

According to wistv.com, "Mr. Karey stated that he had received some inappropriate text messages from his wife to the pastor," Mancuso said.  What a shame, sometimes this wife could be partially the blame for what happened.  She possible only filed a police report, claiming rape, because she did not want her husband to hurt Pastor Harris.  So said to admit, it's too late.

Saints of God, this is a very sad situation, because allegedly Pastor Harris and Woodrow Karey were good friends.  Aren't those the ones who hurt you the most, sometimes?  However, there is never an excuse for ignoring God's Word that clearly tells us not to kill (Exodus 20:13).

Could we say Evangelist Greg Laurie is in line to be the next Billy Graham?  It's not just Joel Osteen who pulls a big crowd.   Almost 30,000 people attended his Harvest America Crusade the first night.   God is really using Laurie to win lost souls to Christ, just like Pastor Joel Osteen.

According to ChristianPost.com, on the crusade's last day, Sunday, Laurie shared a message titled, "Home Before Dark," based on his own experience, and reminded the crowd that life is short-lived.

It's very beautiful to see Pastor Laurie attract thousands to hear his sermons about Jesus Christ.

Saints of God, this man, Woodrow Karey walked into a church in St. Charles, Louisiana and shot a pastor dead.  Whatever Pastor Ronald Harris Sr. may have done to offend Karey, there is never an excuse to take his life.  Now, Harris' wife will have to remember her husband preaching his last sermon, then falling to his death.

According to CNN.com, during his arrest, Karey directed the deputies to two guns he had discarded in a wooded area. One of the firearms was a shotgun and the other was a pistol, police said. Police have not said which weapon was used to kill the pastor.

May Pastor Ronald Harris, Sr. or Tabernacle of Praise Worship Center rest in peace.  At least he died preaching God's Word.

Thank God, there are Christian parents in this era who are taking a stand against Jay-Z lyrics being taught to their kids.   A group of them are very upset that a school in Mississippi insists on their students studying Jay-Z's lyrics.  It's time for us to take dominion over the public school systems in America, because our children should not ever be forced to study lyrics of a secular artist.

According to BlackChristianNews.com, the students spent three days learning about Shawn "Jay Z" Carter and tested on their knowledge of his "resilience."

Let us not leave our children in the hands of the public school system, but many of you Christian parents should be joining the boards of the school districts across America, so God will have more control over what is taught to our children.  You see, we must began using wisdom, because we are powerless if we do not govern all organizations on God's land.

Using the familiar and familial motif of the front porch as a gathering place, three African-American pastors of the Reformed tradition have launched a platform to host conversations about winsome and troublesome aspects of the Black Church in an effort, according to one, to "hold fast to those things that are good, and to do away with those things that are not worthy of our mission."

Washington Post columnist, Rahiel Tesfamariam speaks the truth about reality TV in the church.  We certainly agree that it will shame and damage the christian ministry, overall.  However, it saddens us to realize these ministers who specifically star on 'Preachers in LA' are spiritually blinds and can't see it.  Allegedly, they are more focused on fame and fortune and the damage afterwards could be irrelevant to them.

According to Black Christian News, this new phenomenon of church leaders as the focus of reality television shows is seen by some as a rare, needed look into the guarded lives of pastors. For others, it will further the embarrassment of an already ridiculed church community. My thoughts lean towards the latter: I question what's behind this growing trend and what potential damage it will do to Christian ministry.

In the meantime, let us pray for God to let these preachers who star on this show, Preachers in LA and other reality shows to see the light and to realize they are doing more harm than good.  God wants them to save souls not show off what wealth they possess to the world.  Too many souls are already burning in hell and the eternal flames are waiting for more.

They never acknowledge them and continue to preach the word of God like they have never done a thing wrong in their lives. They leave a tainted image of the church and the man behind the pulpit; let alone a scarred group of children...

Someone shot at this church in South Carolina, Legacy Outreach was shot by 16 bullets.   Saints of God, we are living in an evil age.  Of course, we've heard of church burnings, that's bad enough, which is something we'll never get used to.  However, the Devil creates all sorts of ways to destroy God's house and these people who work for him are very insane and overflowing with evil.

According to ChristianPost.com, Strickland entered the church's sanctuary on Sunday, Sept. 15 and found dust covering the back pews, the ceiling in disrepair and several bullet shells on the floor.

We sincerely pray for people who like to destroy God's house, because in judgement, there will be severe punishment for them.   You may wonder why would anyone do such a thing, but shooting bullets at a church bullet is no different than burning down a church.  Furthermore, enemies who try to attack God's people are demon possessed souls.

Now it's time for we as saints of God to pray against this demonic warfare that is using people to take jobs us.   The famous christian broadcaster, Craig James has been fired by Fox Sports for opposing gay marriage.  Now, he's accusing them of discrimination, because Fox Sports has violated Freedom of Religion.   

We pray Craig James not only fights this in court, but moves on with his own show.  We suppose why we've heard some celebrity pastors mention we need to take over the television industry in the world.  Now that we've seen what has happened to our brother in Christ, we certainly agree with that fact.

According to ChristianPost.com, a day after his first appearance on air, however, Fox Sports Southwest's general manager Jon Heidtke who had hired him, told James he had been fired. Top officials at Fox Sports, he said, were informed about comments James made about same-sex marriage during his failed bid for a seat in the U.S. Senate in 2012 and were uncomfortable.

In the meantime, we will keep Craig James in our prayers.  God will prevail in his case.

We don't know why this former pastor is complaining that he was fired by his church, it's very wrong to marry gays even if it's legal.   The Bible strictly denounces homosexuality and there is no way to exempt that fact.   Furthermore, the Bible also strictly forewarns that we should never add nor subtract from God's Word. 

According to NBCPhiladelphia.com, the county clerk issued 174 same-sex licenses since July before he was court ordered to stop earlier this month by a Commonwealth Court judge who said Hanes didn't have the power to decide whether Pennsylvania's Defense of Marriage Act is constitutional. The law defines marriage as between one man and one woman. Hanes plans a state Supreme Court appeal. 

 There is a worse punishment coming for Rev. Ken Kline Smeltzer, much worse than getting fired by his former congregation. God is not pleased with his gay affirming behavior or any other pastor who is guilty of it.

NFL player, Paul Oliver committed suicide. The Georgia native is not the first to take his own life and we are so afraid he won't be the last.  It seems since we've heard about this brain injury among various players, there has been too many fatal incidents, like in the case of Jovan Belcher, for example. 

According to Bleacherreport.com, Oliver was a fourth-round selection for San Diego in the 2007 supplemental draft out of the University of Georgia. He played for the Bolts through 2010 before signing with the New Orleans Saints prior to the 2011 season. Oliver never played a regular-season contest with the Saints, though, as he was released. He eventually re-signed with San Diego.
