Scriptures says a double-minded man is “unstable in all his ways” (James 1:8).
Pastor Phil Pringle of the C3 Global Movement does not have honest doctorate credentials:
Is Doctor Phil Pringle Really a Doctor?
Is it any wonder we find him contradicting himself like this?
Eph 1:3-4 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ This is the grace (unmerited favor) of God – if you are in Christ, you have fulfilled ALL God’s requirements to bless you. In the Old Testament you had to keep all the law to qualify for blessing, but in the NT the plan is when you receive Christ all God’s requirements are satisfied!!! God has already blessed you. Believe this and you’ll walk into it! Every blessing God has available is yours, in Christ. Nothing can curse what God has blessed. Nothing can curse what God has blessed. Blessing will overcome cursing everytime. Even when people try to curse you, God will turn it into a blessing. There is no curse that will succeed against a child of God, someone IN CHRIST! See you in church!” – Phil Pringle, Blessed, not cursed, http://philpringle.com/BlogRetrieve.aspx?BlogID=5391&PostID=95332, 01/11/2009.
Pringle said about cursing,
“Yet from the days of your fathers You have gone away from My ordinances and have not kept them. Return to Me, and I will return to you,” says the LORD of hosts. “But you said, ‘In what way shall we return?’ Will a man rob God? Yet you have robbed Me! But you say, ‘In what way have we robbed You?’ In tithes and offerings.” (Malachi 3:7-8)
To be right with God financially means to pay our tithes and give offerings to God-not just offerings and not just tithes, but both, as the Scripture above indicates. Tithes belong to God. If we are found with them in our hands, we are considered to be robbing from God. We cannot expect a financial breakthrough in our lives if we are stealing from God or withholding from Him what He has requested from us.
———–
In 2 Thessalonians 3:11, Paul calls people who don’t work, “disorderly.” He says these people should get a job so they will have something to give. Some people will say, “I’m no thief,” yet they don’t tithe. Withholding from God places them among the very worst of thieves-those who take from God Himself! If we are not tithing, then we are stealing from God and from His house. Plain and simple.
The church is not an “organization,” it is a congregation of the people of God. If we as a body fail to bring the tithes and offerings, which belong to God, then as a church we are not right with Him. Once we have gotten right with God in this area, the curse brought on by withholding the tithe will be removed.
We must never be found to be withholding from God. Everyone must play a part in bringing the incredible financial breakthrough God intends to bring to His church. The breakthrough in the church begins in our spirits. When we break free from holding back the tithe, we will cause a breakthrough in the heavens over our lives so that such blessings will begin to fall upon us all that we won’t be able to contain them!
“And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, so that he will not destroy the fruit of your ground, nor shall the vine fail to bear fruit for you in the field,” says the Lord of hosts. (Malachi 3:11)” – Phil Pringle, Keys To Financial Excellence, 2005, pg. 76-77.
We will end with this scripture,
“Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.” – James 4:8
Phil should not think he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all he does.
True Zorro, “Let not that man think that he shall receive anything of the Lord”.
Zorro I guess the BMWs, the luxury homes, the fancy restaurants have their source from somewhere else?
Yes Gary; all the things that the prosperity pimps so adore are of this world.
King David prayed “O LORD, by your hand save me from such men, from men of this world whose reward is in this life.”
One wonders how exactly Phil would exegete that particular verse – he probably hasn’t even so much as read it (if he happened across it by accident he would doubtless avert his eyes; it’s simply too confronting for his type).
One day Phil will discover the truth about material riches: “cast but a glance [at them] and they will be gone, for they will surely sprout wings and fly off to the sky like an eagle”.
“One day Phil will discover the truth about material riches: “cast but a glance [at them] and they will be gone, for they will surely sprout wings and fly off to the sky like an eagle”.”
Zorro, my personal belief is that will happen in 2012. I foresee C3 collapsing like a ponzi scheme or pack of cards.It ain’t rocket science. As the world economies tighten, and Gillard is certainly doing her part for the One world Government boys, pulpit pimping funds will dry up.
It’s all very well for Phil to order those who have no money to give to C3 but when they can barely survive, even himself, as Christendom’s master money extractor, will not be able to get blood out of a stone.
Also thousands of christians are realising now, that they have been conned with indulgences,err ‘tithes’, and when they see the truth and stop giving, then C3 pastors will have to drop to normal salaries. Because they are in it for the money they will then lose interest in C3. Churches won’t be interested in joining C3 anymore unless they see cash.
I don’t know about time frames, Gary, but it may well be that the day will come when C3 will have their “Ezekiel 34” moment. (I generally avoid prognostications – I know that God is not mocked, and that He will give to each according to their works. It will certainly be interesting to see it when it happens).
Of course, the biggest problem for the apostate pulpit pimps is the Internet – it’s beyond their control, and it drives them absolutely *nuts* that people can point out their heresy in public, and do so with absolute impunity.
I read the cleverly put article on- WHICH PRINGLE DO YOU BELIEVE?So i thought to leave a scripture for those tied up with the law. NIV GALATIONS 2:14When I saw that they were not acting in line with the truth of the gospel, I said to Peter in front of them all, “You are a Jew, yet you live like a Gentile and not like a Jew. How is it, then, that you force Gentiles to follow Jewish customs?
15“We who are Jews by birth and not ‘Gentile sinners’ 16know that a man is not justified by observing the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by observing the law, because by observing the law no one will be justified.
17“If, while we seek to be justified in Christ, it becomes evident that we ourselves are sinners, does that mean that Christ promotes sin? Absolutely not! 18If I rebuild what I destroyed, I prove that I am a lawbreaker. 19For through the law I died to the law so that I might live for God. 20I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. 21I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!”
I’m not sure how the book of Galatians would sit with C3 pastors.Maybe they would consider it one of the so called PAUL’S CUSTOMS or perhaps they might just write graffiti on it to trap the gullible.I couldn’t understand Galatians until Jesus helped me out and got me outta there.Trying to hear the truth while yielding to the power or authority of a pastor who wants to be under the law(yet is not aware of what the law says)is fruitless.
