His resurrection put the stamp on the cross.

how can you have a risen saviour with out the cross. I meant, He had to die in order to be risen. Or are you eating a double cheeseburger and drinking a diet coke?

His resurrection put the stamp on the cross.
What did that have to do with anything I said?

Kerry, dig deep and stop being glib. He was defrocked, because he would not give up SBN for 2 years until he was restored and when he was defrocked the AG let him go.

Yes it hurt both sides and the AG was not a saint either, because they were slow in delivering the medicine because of all the money at stake....he never left the AG, he was defrocked because he would not submit to his own denomination for restoration.

His doctrine is false...

$4 MILLION coming for people that have no clue and won't dig for themselves that his gospel has turned the cross into an idol, keeps Jesus hanging on the cross and dead and believes that the resurrection means nothing...

Try wathcing every service that swaggert preached last year for 2014 Easter Camp meeting...he himself and his boy and Lauren, Jim and all his merry men all state plainly that the cross is all it is about, we do not care about resurrection, ole Lauren even admonished people not to Worry about every reading pasrts of Romans 10.9-10, God raising him from the dead is not nearly as dear as understanding the cross...and not needed for salvation....

We will agree to disagree kerry, but check this doctrine and all his vids, he sneaks it in, when you least expect it....
If Jesus is still dead we have a problem and Swaggert keeps him dead, because it keeps his own conscience free from guilt and allows him to live in fantasy land about his own issues.

Besides, the fruit of his son, grandson and many of his preachers bears witness to immorality, pride, arrogance and fraud...

a fool and his money are soon departed
I do not agree they preach His resurrection, but put emphasis on the cross as well as the bible does. What do you think that all the sacrifices were about. I meant do we overcome by the resurrection or by the blood. Was it the risen lamb in Egypt or was it the blood of the lamb. Jesus said unless you eat my flesh and drink my blood you cannot enter the kingdom of heaven.

I am set free by the blood of Jesus and his resurrection make it certain, because the same Spirit that raised Him from the dead now resides in me, by the blood. I meant His spilled blood. Everything in the bible points to the blood of the lamb.

Kerry they keep him on the cross and dead.......I am sorry you do not see this or want to see it...I also agree it is the Blood...but it is also belief that God has raised him from the Dead [Romans 10.9-10]

Last October we were channel surfing and stopped on SBN and swaggert said this:
Be wary of those who do not preach or teach you the cross, be especially worried about those who state Jesus is on the right hand of the Father and still not atoning for your sins on the cross...Christ is atoning for you even now on the cross...

That is about as false as it gets Kerry....

Right and I have been married for 25 years and needed your help as if I have never been through those trials, thank God for the Holy Spirit.

You mentioned that Swaggart was defrocked by who? the AOG or God? Martin Luther was defrocked by the RCC and not by God.

Hiz what are saying? the blood of Christ is not enough it was enough to free them of their bondage of slavery was it not?

I am amazed, no wonder the church is failing they don't even know how to get saved nor have any idea as to where to place their faith. I Meant preach the truth Swaggart and keep preaching because we need it.

where do you and the Highwayman place your faith specifically and don't say the word of God because that is the work of the cross.

Man it was a joke, lighten up.....

Keep defending Swaggert friend and you will end up broke and answering for things you really should not have to answer for.

I am wondering what you think about this I know many Christian women wear them.
I haven't read the responses on this thread, so somebody else might have already said this...

How many Christian women on this forum would show up at church, before the saints, wearing only a bra and panties which is basically what a bikini is?

My guess is that none would, so why would they wear the same in public before the unsaved?

Just my two cents...

Lots of brothers have something to say here........so for laughs.....let's here a older woman's view.....
from time is was young....I have chosen a modest bathing suit.....even in my best body days.....
I always felt that leaving things to the imagination was much more sexy than showing it all....
we are treated different when we chose to dress in a revealing way......a christian woman
would feel very uncomfortable with this kind of attention......
A couple of months ago.....my daughter and I visited a new church......after service....a young woman
was asked to do the ice bucket challenge.......she put on a bikini and walked into the sanctuary
and Informed everyone who was standing there to watch outside........can you imagine.......
my daughter was appalled.....she said ....well mom....I guess we cross this one off for a return visit...
She was the same age as my daughter.....and we couldn't understand the disrespect......
And at the beach I see many women who just shouldn't even try........
Bikini,s are humiliating to me.............jmo.....

I have a brother in Christ who says that just swimming together is akin to bathing together....no matter what kind of clothes they have on. I know that I have to keep my mind on Jesus when there is a scantily clad woman in a bikini.

I'm a swimmer.....have been all my life......and unless I'm racing someone......or surfing.....
swimming to me is a solitary sport anyway........tempting brothers is a sin.....and some use it
like a spider to a fly.....sorry men......its just cause they can......but what these girls don't understand....
if a man wants you for your figure......that's probably all he wants......and heartbreak is just around the corner.....I get uncomfortable when the subject of conversation is my body........I'm so much more....why hide it behind a bikini.......get what I'm saying....
