The Grid – Dealing With Apostasy, Carnality, Luke Warmness In the Church [Part 2]
THE GRID
1. WILL IT BENEFIT ME SPIRITUALLY?
All things are lawful, but not all things are profitable. All things are lawful, but not all things edify. (1 Cor. 10:23) A “profitable” thing is useful, helpful, or to your advantage to do; and the idea behind “edify” is to build up spiritually. So based on this verse, ask yourself, “Will doing this enhance my spiritual life? Will it cultivate godliness? Will it build me up spiritually?” If not, you should seriously question whether that behavior is the best choice.

The Grid – Dealing With Apostasy, Carnality, Luke Warmness In the Church

I want to thank those that responded to the post titled ONE WORLD MUSIC. There were many that agreed with what was written, while there were others that didn’t. That’s fine. I don’t claim to know it all, but I do know one thing for certain… GOD HAS A POSITION! God does have a side! So there has to be a right side, AND a wrong side to be on. God certainly isn’t into relativism, nor does He change because His creation feels they’ve become more enlightened. GOD HAS ABSOLUTES THAT DON’T CHANGE! In other words, He doesn’t allow us to play that game of, well, what’s true for you is true for you, and what’s true for me, is true for me. SOMEBODY’S TRUTH IS A LIE!

Pastor Jamal Bryant Will Invites Singer Ledisi To The Empowerment Temple June 10th
Pastor Jamal Bryant of the Empowerment Temple in Baltimore, Maryland has invited R&B singer Ledisi to his church to speak and perform, we assume, at both of his services on June 10th.
Ledisi has just released a new book called ESSENCE Presents Ledisi Better Than Alright: Finding Peace, Love & Power.
Pastor Jamal Bryant is no stranger to rubbing elbows with the rich and famous and celebrity folks. We are very curious to know how the services will go on Sunday.

Pastor Jamal Bryant’s Plan to Register Voters May Violate IRS Policies
“The number one thing we are doing is going after registering 1 million voters in this fall’s election,” said Bryant, who pastors a church in Baltimore, Md., in a video for News One. “This is going to be a critical election when you deal with foreclosure, bankruptcy and healthcare. Our president has an agenda but he needs some help.”Rob Johnson, who is a senior policy analyst with Americans United for Separation of Church and State, says pastors need to be careful how they encourage their members to engage in politics because of IRS regulations on nonprofits, which is the status of most churches. If the church advocates a particular candidate, the IRS could rule that the organization is political and thus not eligible as a charity to enjoy tax-exempt status and tax-deductible donations. Donors to a nonprofit church can deduct contributions as a charitable donation.“There is nothing wrong with a church or any other organization encouraging people to exercise their right to vote,” Johnson told The Christian Post. “The IRS has been clear as long as churches encourage people to vote on a non-partisan basis they are on safe legal ground.”But when Johnson was informed of Bryant’s quote that mentioned President Obama, he expressed some concern that the Baltimore pastor was close to overstepping his legal boundaries.“I’m not familiar with this particular movement, but if he or any other pastor were to mention President Obama or any specific candidate by name and say people needed to register to vote or cast their vote for them they would be violating IRS rules.”

We want to say our prayers our with the Co-Founder of New Destiny Christian Center, Pastor Riva Tims. Pastor Riva Tims is the pastor of Majestic Life Church, which is going to expand much greater than New Destiny, because God has seen the pain of neglect and rejection by New Destiny Christian Center. Pastor Riva Tims is the mother of the late Zachery Tims’ four children. Out of so much pain, she ceased New Destiny Christian Center, because of a previous marriage conflict, but was willing to return because of all of her New Destiny supporters wanted her as pastor, again. Watch God expand Majestic Life Church, all because of Pastor Riva Tims’ enduring so much pain of neglect and rejection.
