Here again another chopped up video. This is sickening and wrong. If you are going to use youtube to prove someone wrong get some full messages.
Also there is nothing wrong about teaching anyone to love themselves. Are we to walk around not loving ourselves, being depressed and disappointed. I think not. If we are made in his image and likeness yet hate ourselves what does that say about the God we say we love?

The first issue is theology. Whatever people preach if they preach a different theology they need to be open about it.
The Latter Rain preachers lie about what they believe. Even here rather than say, yes this is their theology, it is denial.
We are called love. We are called to show to each other a servant attitude. We are called to not be super-spiritual but down to earth, practical and real.
Anyone who attacks a simple representation of the success gospel, already has accepted it.
We are called to be successful in repentance, righteousness, love, serving others, meeting needs.
If you preach a message that inflates the ego, pushes possessions and recognition and power, you have just thrown the gospel away.
The hardest thing in the world is me to be successful and then serve you, because success seems to say I am better than. The King of Kings came to wash our feet, to walk with ordinary people and heal ordinary hurts and solve ordinary problems.
So must we.

The church is seriously deceived. I mean seriously.
You say, ‘I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.’ But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked.
Rev 3:17
Sharing the truth about people, God, life and love is now "sickening."
Repent of your selfish ways, and humble yourselves so that the Lord might forgive you.
For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice.
James 3:16
But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth.
James 3:14
Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.
Phil 2:2-4
People envy the rich, want freedom from struggle over money, housing, food, possessions but getting them all freely.
If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person?
1 John 3:17
Now listen, you rich people, weep and wail because of the misery that is coming on you. ...
You have lived on earth in luxury and self-indulgence. You have fattened yourselves in the day of slaughter. You have condemned and murdered the innocent one, who was not opposing you.
James 5:1-5
These vain teachers enrich themselves with their words, and condemn their followers to greed and desire for wealth in this world and not in the next.

One thing I have learnt, people lie, whether they call themselves christian, muslim, atheist, or whatever.
Putting points across matter, and here especially. You matter and how you express yourself.
Censorship works because you give up, you let those with an agenda dictate theirs. Latter Rain is from the Pit, its fruit is greed and self indulgence, its promise is heaven on earth in a worldly way.
What Jesus preaches is functional, appropriate, spiritually and emotionally mature believers who walk in the Kingdom. Few of these people will be wealthy, or important, or show off individuals, because a loving mature heart is real, it does not need all this recognition or adulation, you are in the Kingdom of God, the Lord of Lords who was a servant.
The road to the kingdom is hard, because it is a road within, through actions done for others. It is also a road of denial, of sacrifice, of hardship, of fighting, of not being accepted or recognised or encouraged. Look at Jesus. 3 years of ministry and they killed Him and his deciples fled, and could not even stay awake on his last night alive. Foolish men have called Jesus wealthy, when His whole message is wealth does not matter, it is purity and righteousness in the heart is everything.
But it is so much easier to preach worldly desires that match struggling poor people, wanting a simple way out.
The road of the Kingdom is the message you need to hear, and live and follow.
