Pastor Ron Carpenter's Wife Apologizes for Causing Pain
Author: UnknownIt takes a strong person of faith to apologize when another person admits they have been hurt. These days, there are many people whom profess Christ, but they don't care whenever someone is hurting from their offenses. We think highly of Hope Carpenter, because she has apologized for causing her husband Pastor Ron Carpenter so much emotional distress and do doubt, within their congregation.
According to ChristianPost.com, The megachurch pastor shared that both the Carpenter and Hilley families spent time talking with Mrs. Carpenter Tuesday for 45 hours and that his wife asked him to relay a message."She made me promise to let each of you know that she is sorry for any pain she may have caused and she received great joy in my assuring her of y'all's great love for her. I love each of you dearly and CAN NOT WAIT to see you... One day at a time..," read Carpenter's message from his wife.
God can certainly heal this marriage, because Hope Carpenter has admitted she was wrong and apologized. In general, God can never heal broken families, broken friendships or broken marriages, except when everyone admits they were wrong, keep that in mind and God bless all of you.
In the meantime, we will keep Pastor Ron and Hope Carpenter in our prayers. God bless them both.

These three pastors, Steve Timmerman and Terry and Janice Whitley of Grace Christian Center were involved in a one car accident that rolled over. Investigators allegedly claim all three were not wearing seat belts. Saints of God, this is very sad, but there is a possibility these three pastors would still be here if they were wearing seat belts. Be smart, beloved sisters and brothers, please wear your seat belt.
According to BlackChristianNews.com, Pastors Steve Timmerman and Terry and Janice Whitley were driving from the airport after doing missionary work in Bulgaria for 11 days when their vehicle violently rolled into the median, according to Renee Leach, an employee for the church.
May Steve Timmerman and Terry and Janice Whitley rest in peace, we know they will be missed by their congregation at Grace Christian Center.

After allegedly infecting many woman with HIV, this pastor, Rodney Carr is still on a popular dating site, possibly seeking more individuals. We want to say many of your preachers in the black church ought to be ashamed of yourselves for infecting women and men in your congregations. How can you claim to be a man of God and sexually violate those whom look up to you as their shepherd?
It's so sad to know Rodney Carr has already infected over 100 women. Just think of how many other pastors and bishops could be infecting many women in the black church? Since AIDS has been a plague within the black community, it seems like these pastors in the black church would stop spreading their disease, but there are many like Carr who would rather share it and put many women and men whom are fond of them in misery like themselves.
According to NewsOne.com, on a routine gynecological visit, the woman’s physician reportedly suggested an HIV test. When she reportedly received her results, she knew Carr had infected her. According to the woman, the 47-year-old preacher never told her he was HIV positive. The woman claims she trusted Carr, because he is a minister.
In the meantime, you women be careful out there, never get so desperate you have to move ahead of God and seek a man to be in your life. You may be the next victim of an HIV/AIDS killer like Pastor Carr, allegedly.

Rev. John Donnelly, a pastor in Connecticut had bible study in a bar while drinking beer, allegedly. The pastor decided that people would choose to meet in a bar, rather than church. In our opinion, if they are hungry for God's Word, they would not mind stepping in a church. You don't have to trick people into hearing God's Word and there is no excuse to sip beer. We wonder if this pastor pray before making this unwise decision.
According to blackchristiannews.com, Rev. John Donnelly conducted a men's Bible study similar to this when he was co-rector with his wife, the Rev. Ellen Donnelly, at a church in New Jersey. There, Donnelly had it in the living room of his home, which was next door to the church. He couldn't host it at his home this time because he lives in Southbury, and he wanted it in the center of Oxford and not in church.
We deeply feel God is not pleased with anyone drinking alcohol beverages while drinking beer, especially those whom preach the gospel of Jesus Christ or just proclaim salvation. We pray for Pastor Donnelly, but we feel he's in error.
Connecticut Pastor Hosts Bible Study Group Over Beer In a Bar

Joseph Scrambia shares his testimony of how he found Jesus Christ after experiencing a near death experience. Scrambia was once a gay porn star, but now he's set free from sin. No matter what your sin is, you should take time to listen to Joseph's testimony, it will certainly help you.
According to ChristianPost.com, Sciambra, 44, says in his new book that he was first introduced to porn at the young age of eight, and quickly after this first experience he became addicted to more extreme forms of pornography, such as gay porn and masochistic behavior. The website for Swallowed by Satan says Sciambra hit rock bottom after delving "into the darkest recesses of the occult, Satanism, and eventually Neo-Nazi ritualism," eventually becoming a "sadomasachist master" and ultimately a "common street hustler."
If you have an addiction to porn or you are a porn star, it's never to late to be delivered and set free. Jesus Christ loves you and He died that you may have a right to the tree of life, but you must choose to serve Him, He cannot force you. As Joshua 24:15 says, choose ye this day whom ye will serve.

Pastor Mark Driscoll Drives in Hearse and Ask, 'Will Christianity Have a Funeral or a Future?'

He makes the point about how weak Christianity is in America these days. Pastor Mark Driscoll ask an important question, 'Will Christianity have a Funeral or a Future?' Doesn't it seem like Christianity has died in this country to some degree?

Prayer at Football Games Warning Issued by ACLU to Tenn. Schools
Author: UnknownAs some of you already know, this country has been under satanic attack for a very longtime, now. Previously, we've heard of many stories about how the ACLU wanted to stop Christians from publicly praying in public, even in their homes, allegedly. This time, the organization has issued a warning that there should be no prayer at football games in Tennessee.
According to ChristianPost.com, the letter also names previous Supreme Court cases that have forbade public prayer from being held in school or at school-led functions, such as football games, including the 1992 ruling in Lee v. Weisman and the 2000 ruling in Santa Fe Independent School District v. Doe.
In the meantime, we will be praying for God to intervene so prayer will be able to continue at football games, all across America.

Celebrity News: Christian Parents Upset After School Gives Students 3 Days to Study Jay-Z Lyrics
Author: UnknownThank 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 ask you this one question: If pastors are picking up prostitutes, then how will they get saved? Pastors cannot preach God's Word and be a 'john' at the same time. However, Pastor Carlos Feliciano obviously thought it was okay to do so.. You see, no preacher has anything to preach about if he is fooling around with sinners. God want you to win them, not hang with them and certainly not go to bed with them.
According to orlandosentinel.com, Feliciano's family said he had last been seen handing out fliers and visiting churches around noon that day, according to police. The family left shortly after learning he had been arrested and was being held at the Osceola County Jail on a prostitution charge, with bail set at $500.

Thank God these two pastors were acquitted for standing out at a DMV in California preaching God's Word. The judge in the case allegedly ruled Pastors Brett Coronado and Mark Mackey were only exercising their right of Freedom of Speech. If you recall Pastor Coronado of Reconciled Christian Fellowship in Hemet, and Pastor Mackey, an elder at Calvary Chapel Hemet church, were arrested on February 2, 2011. Now, in 2013, they are free and have both proven God will step in when you have been persecuted for Jesus Christ.
According to WND.com, Nic Cocis, co-counsel for the defense, said, “These men were exercising their First Amendment right of free speech. They were simply sharing their faith on public property and the criminal charges should never have been filed.”
In the meantime, we will celebrate with these two pastors and keep them in our prayers. Furthermore, this is a lesson for all of you not to stop witnessing to lost souls, regardless of the persecution you face.

The catholic high school teacher, Ken Bencomo (r.) got married to the same-sex and he was fired afterwards. Some students are outraged about his release and have demanded that he be reinstated. However, this catholic school allegedly states they have rights under their beliefs that do not condone certain things, according to what they teach at their church.
According to ktla.com, school officials did not talk to reporters, but a spokesman for the diocese of San Bernardino issued the following statement: ”If a teacher or school employee makes a display of behavior that is counter to church teaching, such as homosexuality, sex outside of marriage or having a child outside of marriage, That can impact their employment status.”
Saints of God, we feel although this catholic school teacher had been teaching there for 17 years, he should have informed the officials of his marriage and choice of sexual preference. He should have known what their christian beliefs were and when he wanted to marry, in our opinion it would have been the right thing to respect their regulations and most of all God's commandments.
