As born again believers, we are to bear fruits to Glory God. The Apostle Paul gives a description of these fruits of the spirit
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. 24 And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. 26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another – Galatians 5:22-26 (KJV)
Watch this short 9 minute video and tell me if you think any of these hate filled pastors and teachers shown in the video have these fruits of the spirit?

The preachers and teachers in this video by Mark Sennett are the enemies of Christ because they are not preaching the gospel of Christ in compassion for lost souls. As ambassadors of Christ, we are here to help one another to the saving gospel, not to cause divide and offence. Remember, we were all lost once. We all need a saviour in Jesus. The gospel of Christ in itself can be offensive to people of other religions because it describes only one path to the father, Jesus Christ. However, we are only proclaiming exactly what Jesus told us in the scriptures.
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me – John 14:6 (KJV)
For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; – 1 Timothy 2:5
These pastors are filled with self-righteousness and hate. Are they without sin? Lord Jesus help these pastors who preach your Word grow in mercy and grace, to care for lost souls, to be a shining light in this dark world. This world needs your saving grace, it needs Jesus Christ. May lost souls be drawn to you, Jesus as our redeemer. The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness, but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance – 2 Peter 3:9 (change our mind and believe the gospel). In Jesus’ precious name, Amen.
