Big Pimpin’ At Bethany.Com Friday, Sep 18 2009

Joel Stockstill has went from failed prophecies to Big-Pimpin’ in a short time. As the blacks under this kid’s authority continue to make sacrifices to Larry Stockstill’s 20/20 Vision program,  Joel contiues to use their donations for material gain$. After receiving a fully loaded Honda four-wheeler his new toy is a black Cadillac Escalade with 22″ rims:

 

Bethany's Prophet Joel Continues to contradict what he preaches about material possessions and defy his father's call to make financial sacrifices to Bethany's 20/20 Vision program. It shouldn't be of a suprise since Larry Stockstill doesn't even obey his own 20/20 Vision program. Who believes it? The gullible congregants who continue to make sacrifices, LOL!! http://www.yfrog.com/froggy.php?username=hippofloat

 

Notice in their prophet’s Twitter entry, he doesn’t call on the “Body of Christ” to lust over his worldly possessions but calls on the only entity that desires such material wealth, “WORLD look at my new lade….”. I had no idea that donations to a Not-For-Profit organization such as Bethany.com could spend such donations on Personal-Enrichment?! He even does a play on words about not lacking anything in HIS HOUSE or HIS GARAGE,LOL!! I CAN’T BELIEVE HIS BLATANT DISREGARD AND THE BLINDNESS OF HIS CONGREGANTS WHO CONTINUE “GIVING OVER AND BEYOND”.  Yes, I”m laughing at y’all!!

 

World take a look at my new ‘Lade. She’s sittin on 22″ & black as night. Nolack2 in the house (or garage) twitter link

 

Has anyone at Bethany, especially the Stockstillians who write in here, called Joel on this hypocrisy? Or has the double standard been applied once again?

 

THE OTHER CHILDREN IN MAC’ HEAVEN??!! 

Yep, while your kids in Baker can barely afford a computer their children all have their own Macintosh Laptops. Anyone familiar with technology will immediately know those laptops are the more expensive ones on the market. Again, why are you told to make sacrifices while they endulge in self enrichment??!!

Please Continue To Give $$$$ Our Kids Need More than yours!! Your Blessing Is Coming!! Ummm, oh yeah, THIS IS THE YEAR OF BREAKTHROUGH, have more faith. What's Larry's other one? Oh yeah, Your money is cursed, give more to "Reverse The Curse" http://www.yfrog.com/froggy.php?username=hippofloat

 

Now from the man himself, Larry The Lying Stockstill, who instructs his followers to make sacrifices by postponing trips has recently announced:

“ON THE PLANE BOUND FOR SOUTH KOREA” http://twitter.com/larrystockstill/status/4991778863

 

It’s okay if The Stockstills’ lifestyle contradict their preaching! According to the Stockstillians who obey “The Stockstills Are Annointed!!”.

 

I'm annointed and divinely appointed; when you go broke don't be disappointed. Your money is cursed and needs to be reversed; by giving all to me your annointing will burst. I know it's been a while and you gotta hungry child who is sick with diarhea, I can't help you now I'm chillin' in Korea, LOL.

I’ve also noticed the Stockstills are rarely in Baton Rouge during the weekday. I’ve been informed by those who decided to leave that after the Presidential Election, Joel and Larry have been very hard to reach to address their concerns BUT LO’ AND BEHOLD they pop up in time to collect offerings on Sunday??!! During the weekday they leave their house negro to “beat down” (as Joel puts it) anyone disturbing the waters.

Larry The Lying $tock$till, PT.2 Wednesday, Jun 10 2009

PEACE AND GRACE IN CHRIST JESUS LORD OVER ALL

 

In part one, of Larry The Lying Stockstill, we made it clear that Larry Stockstill had lied once again. He made the promise that he will repent from his past ways and teachings and RETURN to simplicity and the Bible.  Larry further promised that he and his wife would join their congregation if their congregation would make financial and recreational sacrifices in order to donate to his capital campaign. Larry Stockstill and his family have broken these promises as noted in Part one. They’re constantly out of the country on trips, attending the best universities(the most recent is his son Jared Stockstill attending the Univeristy in West Palm Beach), and Joel and his brothers were treated to floor seats at the San Antonio Vs. Lakers game(along with a fully loaded Honda Four Wheeler, Round Trip Airfare, Authentic Kobe Brant Jersey). How was all of that making sacrifices. They’re clearly breaking their vows and dipping into donations for personal enrichment!

 

This Grandma Has Gave All Her Life Without Obtaining The Promised Lifestyle And Travels The Televangelist Promised. The Only Fruit She's Seen Was The Televangelists Family Members Traveling and Attending The Best Schools. The Eldery Are The Usual Victims of These Scare Tatics That They Have A Curse On Their Income And Must "Reverse The Curse" By Giving more.

 

 

NOW PART TWO. Larry Stockstill has lied further about repenting from preaching his propserity gospel and returning to simplicity. In his latest sermon outline titled “OUTLINE 1, BREAKTHROUGH TO BLESSING (PART 5) #2”.  He continues the scare tactics that the millionare televangelist withing the Prosperity Gospel Charismatic Movement use to coerce the humble to give through fear!! He declares by using 2Kings 2:19-22 as his proof text:

 

“IF YOU HAVE ALLOWED SATAN ACCESS TO YOUR FINANCES  THROUGH BITTERNESS, WITHOLDING FROM GOD, THEFT, OR DECEPTION, THERE IS A CURSE THAT MUST BE REVERSED. SALT WAS THE ORIGINAL METHOD USED TO PURIFY A WOUND, AND IT REPRESENTS REPENTANCE AND GRACE.(click here)” 

 

 

 

First, according Larry’s eisegesis, he is reaping what he has sowed! It has been shown that Larry Stockstill AND his family have broken their pledge and vows to make sacrifices with their congregation in the program of deception called 20/20 Vision. THE CONGREGATION IS DOING THE RIGHT THING BY NOT DONATING TO HIS ACCOUNT. Why? Because The Stockstills have proving not to be good stewards of “God’s Money”(as if he really needs it). So The Stockstills need to practice what they preach. They are leaders who’s finances have been cursed because they aren’t being good stewards.

 

Second, the bible says that we aren’t to support God’s stewards by intimidation and coercion as the crooked Stewards of God’s Temple did in the First Century while Christ dwelt among his people.

 

2Cor. 9:7- Each one must do as he purposed in his heart, not grudgingly, OR UNDER COMPULSION, for God loves a cheerful giver.

 

It’s a shame that elsewhere he quotes 2Cor.9:7 when the money was coming in BUT when the cashflow stopped coming in, he drops this verse and tells those in hard times they ARE UNDER A CURSE and NEED TO PAY MORE TO REVERSE THE CURSE, LOL!! What hypocrisy! Christ has taken away all curses. Amen. To tell any born again Christian if he doesn’t continue to give over and beyond or EVEN TELL THEM THEY HAVE TO GIVE 10% OF THEIR SALARY NO MATTER WHAT IS A LIE!! As Paul stated, “each one must do as he purposed in his heart….”. It’s up to the individual to give as he sees fit NOT A TELEVANGELIST who’s family is the only one benefitting. Larry Stockstill you do not set the standard, Shame On You for coercing God’s flock. Woe to you Bethany (House of Poverty).

 

Third, Larry used 2Kings 2:19-22 to support his scare tactic that your money is cursed if you don’t continue to give to him because He’s the good steward of God’s Money, LOL and “Salt was the original method used to purify a wound, and it represents repentance and grace”.  Since Larry Stockstill has been proven a liar and vow breaker let’s contest this greedy pastor’s eisegesis and see if what he claims is true. The verses he quoted to scare people into giving him money has nothing to do with giving YOUR MONEY TO A BAD STEWARD.

 

Furthermore, it has nothing to do with money. Christ took away all curses from us. To suggest that Christians can be cursed, is the same as saying they are not saved.  Some important notes:

 

1. We can not purchase redemption from a curse with money,  all is atoned with Christ sacrifice not Mammon
2. We are not to give fiancial support to poor stewards
3. We are not to give under coercion or compulsion or scare tactics
4. If the Stockstills broke their vows to make financial and recreational sacrifices THEY ARE UNDER A CURSE ACCORDING TO WHAT LARRY STOCKSTILL PREACHES THEY HAVE ALLOWED SATAN TO ENTER THEIR FIANCES

 

 

You know the more I read his sermons and the more people get scared and continue to obey Larry Stockstill’s 20/20 vision by, IT’S HARD TO FEEL SORRY FOR THEM. Yet, we need to keep our hearts soft.  Once people have been brainwashed into a cult like this and give away their belongings in order to purchase redemption from curses, their family suffers because of course things will go from bad to worse.

 

Larry Stockstill, shouldn’t be threatening his congregation with SATAN’S CURSES in these times. Anyone watching the news, knows these times are hard. Larry practice what you preach and have a heart.

Joel Stockstill, Persecuted Prophet??!! Tuesday, Jun 2 2009

Peace And Grace Be Upon The Assembly of God Who Have Been Blessed With The Gift of Discernment

 

 

     First, a little history of those unaware. Joel Stockstill has a history of failed prophecies, in particular, he prophesied that Christ was going to heal his wife from her disease on the foundation of poor hermeneutics; See Here. The Biblical Prophets were very different from False Prophets by the fulfillment of their prophecies. Joel’s history is hit and miss; He misses on the details but when he speaks like a French Quarter Palm Reader with vagueness, he’s able to coerce his prophecies into a hit.

 

Second, he proclaimed Gov. Sarah Palin as an annointed princess versus President Obama. He campaigned for her via his website with article praising her Christianity and family as annointed. He along with the other false Televangelist/Prophet Kim Clement claimed Sarah Palin would “shake things up” during the election process. This is where he “hits” because the prophecy is so vague, it can be fulfilled no matter what. Wouldn’t a African American Christian President being elected considered to be “shaking things up” rather than a dense barbie like Palin whose daughter is pregnant unwed teen?

 

However,  his campaigning (or as Joel dressed it up) “Prophecy” about Sarah Palin caused a split in his predominately black congregation.  Joel, with the help of other managers, were able to divide and conquer this protest.  However, some continue to attend the church yet remain against Joel Stockstill and surely let him know it. These blacks only attend because of their loyalty to their Cell-Leader and friends.  Yet, this remnant continues to speak their minds and JOEL KNOWS IT!!

 

 

Joel Stockstill, Persecuted Prophet or Cry Baby?

 

As a result,  Joel seeks more pity and dresses himself up like a “PERSECUTED PROPHET”. He uses a lone verse from Hosea(9:8) which states:

 

The Prophet, along with my God, is the watchman over Ephraim, yet snares await him in all his paths and hostility in the house of his God(V.8)

 

Joel obviously justifying his campaigning for Sarah Palin and the disturbance it caused, now claims to have “…snares await him in all his paiths and hostility in the house of his God(Hos.9:8)”.

 

The problem with Joel’s eisegesis is that Joel Stockstill IS NOT A BIBLICAL PROPHET no matter how many times he blogs about his claim AND Larry Stockstill IS NOT A BIBLICAL PROPHET despite him claiming to see visions of JUDGEMENT DAY approaching(this comes conviently in time for his latest book, The Remnant). Both so-called prophets have a history of failed prophecies. YOU CAN’T BE RIGHT SOME OF THE TIME YOU HAVE TO PROPHETICALLY CORRECT ALL THE TIME. I’m still awaiting an answer to my “Serious Question About The Stockstill’s Claim To Be Biblical Prophets“. Their propecies always comes in sync with either a book deal, conference, or members they can’t control.

 

Joel, having a double standard against Pres. Obama and being held accountable for it, doesn’t make you a Persecuted Prophet, it makes you a hypocrite and racist. One standard for whites and another for blacks. You still fail to speak about the lack of morality in the Palin houselhold with Bristol Palin’s out wedlock birth, yet you expose the splinters in Pres. Obama’s eyes.

 

You’re claim to be a Prosecuted Prophet is pathetic, God will continue to visit his judgements on your house and save the true victims.

Serious Question About The Stockstill’s Being Prophets Friday, Apr 3 2009

PEACE AND GRACE BE UPON YOU IN THE NAME OF CHRIST JESUS, THE PASSOVER LAMB(1COR.5:8)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

     I have a serious  question for the followers of Bethany World Prayer Center. First, I already know they claim the tricksters, KIM CLEMENT and ORAL ROBERTS and BENNY HINN are biblical prophets of God. They supported Kim Clement’s prophecy that Sarah Palin would “shake things up” in the Presidential campaign due to her holiness(LOL) and hold Oral Roberts in very high esteem despite his failed prophecy that God gave him a message to build a Cancer Research Institute or God would kill him(Oral Roberts); years later that Research Center that God supposedly wanted went bankrupt!!

Here It Comes, This One May Be True, I Think I Can, I Think I Can, I Think I Can

 

 

 

 

 

However, now Joel Stockstill and his daddy, Larry Stockstill, are claiming to be biblical prophets. Larry Stockstill is seeing dreams OF JUDGEMENT DAY and Joel Stockstill is “hearing” direct messages from THE LORD(despite both of their failed prophecy that Joel’s wife Amy wouldn’t die from her disease). Joel’s latest prophecy comes via his twitter blog called Hippofloat, “Geaux TIGERS!!! LSU wins championship at same time as 220 conf. that would[sic]  supercool and prophetic in some kind of way. Hippomusings” 8:58 pm, Jun 22. This so called prophet just loves to mock the holiness of the High Office of Prophet. He sums up very well how he goes about making his vague prophecies come true with calling LSU’s winning “…PROPHETIC IN SOME KIND OF WAY”. LOL!! That’s about right for all of his “hearing from the Lord”.

 

QUESTION: DO YOU  BELIEVE THE STOCKSTILLS SELF PROCLAMATION THAT THEY ARE MODERN DAY PROPHETS? IF SO, WHO ARE THE OTHER PROPHETS IN YOUR DENOMINATION(Charismatics)BESIDES BENNY HINN, KIM CLEMENT, ORAL ROBERTS, AND THE STOCKSTILLS?

 

God supposedly showed This proclaimed prophet(Larry Stockstill) that he's getting ready to initiate JUDGEMENT DAY on the church. This has been the sales pitch for his latest book, The Remnant.

 

Larry’s latest so-called prophecy comes just in time for the Pagan Feast of Easter(instead of Christ’s Passover Feast):

 

“In prayer this morning, I could see vultures circling over a lone figure in the wilderness. It was a confused, burned out, offended, deceived believer who has allowed the enemy to separate them from the Body of Christ. Satan is watching their pitiful condition in order to devour them. How many there are who once walked with the Lord and were happily in fellowship with other believers in the local church. Now, because of overwork, wrong priorities, relationship problems, hurt feelings, or temptation they are out in the “wilderness.”

 

It’s obvious that membership is down since the Stockstill’s belittling of President Obama.  He describes those who left the church as “…a lone figure in the wilderness”. It’s amazing how THE LORD shows Larry these dreams yet says nothing about how Bethany not only celebrates a Pagan Feast but renames The Holy Feast of Passover(1Cor.5:8) with the name of another god. One doesn’t need to be a prophet to see Larry Stockstill’s hypocrisy. What does the god easter and her bunny have to do with The Real GOD and His Passover Lamb? or as Paul states about this unequal yoke….

Larry Stockstill Got $3.2 Million, Did You? Thursday, Apr 2 2009

Peace Be Upon You In The Name Of Christ Jesus

 

$3.2 MILLION

 

In April of 2005 Larry Stockstill sold his radio station, WQCK-“THE BRIDGE”, for an exact $3.2MILLION. I searched the Stockstill’s blogs and nothing was stated about the receiving of the $3.2Million. What I can’t understand is with this money in hand, why ask your congregation to give “over and above” their means?

 

However, I did locate an article at the “Radio Business Report”, click here.

Also, the Radio Ink Magazine confirmed the sale, click here.

 

$3.2 MILLION could definitely help put some Baker, Louisiana kids through college or even fix some of those Blue Tarp Roofs. But like Larry Stockstill commands y’all, “have faith”, LOL.

 

What’s also interesting is that I asked some neighbors who still attend Bethany, “DOES BETHANY HAVE A RADIO STATION?”, their reply was the same, “OH YEAH, IT’S CALLED THE BRIDGE”. Upon presenting the sale of it in 2005, they admitted, “HUH? Whaaat??, WHEN??, Wait…..um.”

 

The Laws Of Increase, By Larry Stockstill

 

Well, after the reception of the $3.2 Million in the spring of 2005, they upgraided their WLFT-CA to channel 17 in the fall.  This channel is obviously making money, so again, why do the Stockstills continue to instruct their subordinates to sacrifice vacations and money to “the church” when the Church doesn’t sacrifice their own trips and spending. 

In fact, the latest post, March 31st, Joel once again brags about his shopping spree in DALLAS, TX.

“We had great services,great times of fellowship, and ridiculous shopping”. or as the “homeboy” stated in his tweeter.com blog(yes, he has yet another site)

“Round 2 shopping…Judah takin me this time. Ready 2 hook up some phat threads! Hippofloat stylin“

 

 

Y’all keep sacrificing, Joel has some “…ridiculous shopping.” to do, LOL.

PEACE AND GRACE TO YOU IN THE NAME OF CHRIST JESUS

 

Brother Melvin over at WWW.PULPIT-PIMPS.ORG has a posting which pretty much shows how the world views the church AND YES JOEL, I think it’s hillarious because these naive folks are in your congregation. CLICK HERE FOR VIDEO .

 

This brother has been sounding the alarm for years and was OFFICIALLY REBUKED by megachurches in his area. However, just like those gullible folks who deify The Untouchable  Stockstills, the naive don’t actually prove anything we say as wrong they just hurl adjectives like you’re “divisive, trouble maker, embarassing the church, twisting words, etc….”,

Melissa Stockstill, European Royalty Thursday, Mar 12 2009

GREETINGS IN THE NAME OF CHRIST JESUS OUR ONLY EXAMPLE AND SAVIOR

 

     I’m continued to be amazed at what the Stockstill’s get away with and how their lifestyles compare with those of their congregation. It’s clear why Larry Stockstill continues to advertise his Prosperity Gospel book, The Laws of Increase and claim that 2Sam.24:24 is about Capital Campaign which shows his members should give “over and beyond” their means.

 

 

Melissa Stockstill is another child of Larry Stockstill who the poor black congregation of Baker has put through college with their tithes/offerings. Melissa Stockstill showed up in December with so called “Royalty from London” to play a duet of Harps(CLICK HERE). On the video Melissa Stockstill informs the interviewer that she:

1. Started Playing The Harp At Four Years Old(what were you doing in the hood at four years old?)
2. Was Taught By An L.S.U. Teacher
3. When asked If She Travels Often, “Yes, I do”(Didn’t Larry Stockstill instruct via his 20/20 vision program for your families to make sacrifices. Why isn’t his family making sacrifices?)
4. She further admits she’s traveled to London “8 to 9 times within a year and half“!!  I’ve never known any of the poor black residents of Baker to have this privilege. I’m sure this LiL Sarah Palin is thankful for your tithes/offerings/sacrifices.

 After graduating from LSU (on the backs of those who will never see college) she moved to London to attend the Royal Academy of Music.

 

Question: How many children of Baker, La. have had these oppurtunities? Has Bethany supported your college tuition and traveling fees and Royal Music Lessons overseas??!! How many of your children have been able to TOUCH much less play a PRICELESS GOLDEN HARP?(READ HERE)

 

Melissa Stockstill is never seen with any of the Black members of Bethany, Why? She’s strictly European! This “Royalty” even copyrights her images. Visit her pics on Virb.Com and you’ll see she definitely doesn’t hold to the conservative views of her father. She shows a lot of skin(click here, I couldn’t post the pic here because she actually purchased to have them coyprighted). It reminds me of Sarah Palin and her daughter.

 

After checking the demographics of Baker, Louisiana, I see why The “SOUTH CAMPUS” WAS CHOSEN AND NOT THE ONE IN BAKER, LOUISIANA. Baker was not good enough to the Stockstill’s to host this ROYAL HARPIST. They didn’t want to be embarassed by the poverty and have this Royal European see its citizens. Instead the predominately white congregation at the North Campus hosted this event. Contrast or compare these demographics OF BAKER, LA. with the easy life of the Stockstills’ children(who must be that 2.4% below)

1. Only 2.4% get to college(That must be the Stockstill’s children)
2. Of that 2.4% that go to college ONLY 9% get their Bachelor Degree
3. of that 2.4% ONLY 5.8% get a graduate degree
4. The HOUSEHOLD income was only $38,500(remember the whole house income not one parent)

 

 

 

Melissa Stockstill, graduate of LSU, Royal Harpist. A very privilege many Baker, Louisiana children don't have. However, if your daddy convinces his congregation they have to make sacrifices and "give over and beyond", you can travel abroad and go to the best schools on the backs of the poor.

 

It amazes me how ministers claim to be Non-profit during tax time, yet their family members enjoy personal enrichment.  Again, hey Baker Louisiana have your kids:

 

1. Gradauted from LSU
2. Traveled to London, England
3. Traveled to Paris
4. Westminster
5. Birmingham
6. Oxford

 

Oooh, that’s right you guys have to obey Larry Stockstill and submit to his 20/20 Vision program where you’re told to do the opposite of his kids(Joel&Melissa). He tells you in 20/20 Vision to(click here for original website rules for YOU and YOUR FAMILY:

 

1. Practice priority budgeting.

Many families choose to rearrange their priorities and give up something in their current budgets in order to give more to a capital campaign. Priority budgeting may mean postponing a planned expenditure for such things as a new car, vacation, home remodeling, or other major expenditure. Many Christians giving to capital stewardship campaigns find the means to give through sacrificial commitments made in faith and coupled with priority budgeting.   (It’s interesting how he says many families choose to “give up something” while his kids travel the world and graduate from universities, shopping sprees in West Palm Beach, Music Lessons in London)

..2. Redirect present expenditures.

Often families have significant short-term expenditures for special needs that can be redirected towards the capital campaign after the short-term obligations are met. For example, a family realized that their daughters would be graduating from college during the last two years of the capital campaign, and consequently, they were able to increase their commitment by thousands of dollars in the second and third years simply by redirecting what they had been spending on their daughters’ tuition. Another example of redirecting expenditures would be committing cash flow that becomes available after a loan is repaid.   (DOES LARRY STOCKSTILL NOT HAVE MERCY??!!  IF ANYONE BLACK CITIZEN IS LUCKY ENOUGH TO ENTER COLLEGE, HE SUGGESTS YOU CONTINUE THOSE PAYMENTS TO HIS CAPITAL CAMPAIGN??!!)

..3. Increase giving with increased income.

Some people receive periodic increases in salary or bonuses from their employers. The temptation for many of us is to increase our lifestyle to fit the higher income. In many instances, families have decided that they will commit the full amount of salary increases to the capital campaign.   (DOES LARRY STOCKSTILL NOT REALIZE THESE INCREASES ARE NEEDED. IT’S NOT A “TEMPTATION” IT’S A NEED. IT’S ALSO AMAZING HOW HIS CHILDREN LIVE ROYALLY WHILE HE PLACES THESE RULES ON THE CONGREGATION)

..4. Give from your excess.

Some people have valuable possessions at their disposal. One young man decided that two of his collectors’ baseball cards worth over $20,000 would be the most appropriate means of sacrifice for his family. Other people save money over a period of years for a special project. For example, a couple had saved $80,000 to build a lake cabin. When their church entered a capital stewardship campaign, they decided the needs of the church were greater than their need for a second home.   (WOW, HE SAYS “OTHER PEOPLE SAVE MONEY”. UUUH, YEAH. IT’S CALLED RETIRMENT!! WHO ARE THESE MYSTERIOUS PEOPLE WHO GAVE UP THEIR LIVES FOR THE STOCKSTILL’S CHILDREN TO LIVE ROAYALLY??!!)

..5. Commit unexpected cash.

Often people pray for God to show them a way they can give beyond what they presently see or afford. Sometimes the answers come unexpectedly. A couple had been praying for weeks about their commitment to their church’s capital campaign. Much to their surprise, they received an inheritance of several thousand dollars. They gave the entire amount to their church as part of their three-year commitment, in addition to a commitment from their regular income.   (YOU TOOK A COUPLES INHERITANCE  IN ADDITION TO WHAT THEY WERE ALREADY GIVING??!! HOW DID YOU CONVINCE THEM? MAN, YOU COULD SELL ICE TO AN ESKIMO. I KNOW YOU HAVE A RESTAURANT AND T.V. STATION, BUT HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT OF SELLING USED CARS? YOU WOULD MAKE A KILLING!! I GUESS THAT’S WHY I’M NOT A TELEVANGELIST, BECAUSE MY CONSCIENCE WOULDN’T ALLOW ME TO TAKE THESE GIFTS MUCH LESS POST THESE SUGGESTIONS.  I’M SURE TEH STOCKSTILL KIDS ARE LOVING THE GIFTS, LOL)

..6. Sacrifice extra time.

Some family members have extra time they would be willing to use in a part-time job to enable them to give more to the church. This is particularly true for families whose children are grown and away from home and for semiretired or retired couples. In one situation, a man was in the process of retiring when his church entered a capital campaign. He and his wife secured new jobs and gave the first three years of their retirement income to the capital campaign.   (WOW, MOST FAMILY MEMBERS GET A SECOND JOB TO HELP OUT WITH BILLS. LARRY STOCKSTILL WANTS THAT MONEY TOO. HE EVEN WANTS THE ELDERLY WHO’S KIDS ARE GONE TO GET A PART TIME JOB AND GIVE HIM ALL THEIR INCOME, LOL, THAT’S BOLD!!)

..7. Donate appreciated assets.

Many people own stocks that are worth significantly more than the original purchase price. That is good news. The bad news is that if these stocks are sold, a significant portion of the gain will be lost to taxation. Gifts of appreciated assets typically, investment securities or real estate—can be very advantageous to both the donor and the church. By transferring ownership of the asset to the church, the donor avoids income taxes on the sale of the asset. In addition, the donor receives an income tax deduction for the full market value of the asset. That, in effect, renders the gift less costly to make.   (YES, THESE STOCKS ARE USUALLY PART OF A 401K RETIRMENT PLAN, GOODNESS LARRY, HAVE MERCY!!)

 

 

 

 If Larry Stockstill wanted to truly pay off bills, he should have practiced what he preached to the people instead of sending his Melissa through college, overseas to study, and travel Europe on motorcycles OR shopping sprees in West Palm Beach while the city is helping citizens after a major hurricane!?

Oh that’s right, it’s not their job, IT’S YOUR JOB church member!! Please…continue to give over and beyond(stocks, pay raises, heirlooms, inheritance,  college tuition).

Jordan Jopling of Bethany, LIAR, LIAR!! Monday, Dec 22 2008

     Jordan Jopling , who works with Joel Stockstill’s 220U, has recently felt the need to respond personally to me,Ovadyah, to defend Gov. Sarah Palin and Joel Stockstill. I’ll place his entire response unedited and respond below it. As many of us have already seen, it’s done more damage than damage control. Oh, when will they learn!!  Jordan Jopling thinks we’re all ignorant not realizing that the modern day racist speak in “code words” and WAS RECENTLY UPHELD IN A COURT OF LAW AS ADMISSABLE EVIDENCE.

 

 

Ovadyah,

You are seriously mixing up facts.

1) Joel Stockstill never has been and is not a racist. Those that accuse him of this only expose themselves as not knowing him or his family AT ALL.

2) Sarah Palin is outspoken about her Christian faith (as is Obama). The reason that the Church in America is behind her is that her history confirms this. Unlike Barak Obama, she does attend a Spirit-filled church  and the people she is associated with in Alaska back up her Christian lifestyle.

3) The accusations about Palin’s knowledge of Africa came out AFTER the election, Fox News said they wished they would have known, and Palin denied the accusations. All of this is on the video you link to, so please watch closely.

4) The Kim Clement prophecy you and Pastor Joel refers to does in fact claim that a vice presidential CANDIDATE…would shake things up. Did that not happen with Palin. Seems like the prophecy was fulfilled. Again, your own link supports this.

…would shake things up. Did that not happen with Palin. Seems like the prophecy was fulfilled. Again, your own link supports this.

5) Last, but most importantly: Pastor Joel went to West Palm Beach during the hurricane because he has kidney failure and must be on dialysis 3 times a week. Baton Rouge was without power for a week in most areas. He has a friend that lives there and stayed with them.

Please look at things objectively. When you interpret things based on a conclusion that you want, you will never see truth. You’re hurting yourself and everyone you lie to about these things.

 

 

Peace And Grace To You Jordan Jopling,

                                                           Upon reading your entire e-mail I was reminded of how Sen.John McCain(R) had to constantly remove Gov.Sarah Palin’s foot from her mouth when she attempted to conduct interviews without supervision.  She attempted to be a big girl and turned into a big embarassment for women across America and Sen.John’s campaign. As a result, John McCain felt the need to start sitting-in these interviews and interjecting before Sarah could further embarrass the Republican Campaign and cause Republicans to start jumping-ship and making an exodus towards PRESIDENT-ELECT BARACK OBAMA.

 

     In other words, You’re Joel Stockstill’s John McCain and Joel is of course your Sarah Palin, constantly putting his foot in his mouth and embarrassing his father’s Campaigns. Bethany now sees an exodous of their biggest financial supporters(African-americans) returning to their own churches from which Bethany seduced them from. I will respond to your claims in the same order as you numbered them. But first realize, that we’re not ignorant we know the racist CODE WORDS.  Even the courts of law recognize that the new racist speak in code.  Haven’t you seen the code that the N.Y. Time spoke in when they were clearly calling President Obama a monkey in their cartoon!?

 

I GUESS THIS IS NOT RACIST EITHER HUH JORDAN?

 

1.)You claim that Joel Stockstill is not a racist yet he never extended the same courtesy and praise to PRESIDENT-ELECT Barack Obama which he blindly gave to Sarah Palin. Joel Stockstill emulates the new racist. They provide one standard for whites and another standard for African-Americans. Joel NEVER gave us any negative concerns about Sarah Palin; Joel never exposed Sarah Palin’s questionable company but never had a problem with whipping the backs of the black folks(Jesse Jackson, Oprah Winfrey) with his berating tongue who supported PRESIDENT-ELECT Barack Obama.Why not do the same with the questionable folks who supported Palin and McCain?! This is the same characteristics of the new racists,i.e., a double standard for blacks.  We fell for those tactics with Bush and Govenor Foster but NO MORE, AMEN!!  Bush is the biggest joke to ever land in the White House. If Joel’s not a racist he’s definitely adopted and simulated their behavior during THIS presidential campaign. Walk like a duck, talk like a duck, he’s a duck. Oh yeah, I’ve noticed all of the rewriting Joel has been doing to his blog entries. Will this fool the black majority? Probally, sad but probally. I know of many who deify the Stockstills.

Remember when Tiger Woods entered golf and the racist comment made by his colleage. The other whites came to his defense and stated the same thing your’re saying, “You just have to know him, he’s not a racist”. It seems everytime a white gets caught in such a bind their “brothers” come with the exact same defense, “You’ve got to to know him”. We minorities know that double standard!! We know the code words!! We know the berating words!! We know when LSU hangs that REBEL FLAG, they’re racist!! Depsite folks stating, “You just don’t understand us” or “it shows you just don’t know us”, we are just expressing southern pride. These are the signs/symptoms you ignore. I don’t blame you for your ignorance. Everyday minorities encounter certain phrases and quips by whites that set off alarms in their heads. It’s not until they get home from work that they call their fellow and state, “You won’t believe what so-and-so said today” and when it gets out…here comes that white guy with, “You just have to understand so-and-so he’s just old-school or you just gotta know him”. It makes us sick!!

 

Another example is his dad’s, Larry Stockstill’s blog entry about “THIS PRESIDENT “is another sign/symptom. Larry calls President Obama, “THIS PRESIDENT….”  AND NOT  “Our President” but a demeaning “THIS PRESIDENT“.We know YOU and we know JOEL. “THIS PRESIDENT”??!! At Southern University and black churches that statement says a lot and is similar to the other racist in Louisiana. Larry has claims in his blog maybe racial strife is coming to an end??!! Obviously not Bethany! He claims many whites voted for President Barack and claims to have rejoiced over this as proof that racism is coming to an end. WOW…Now he wants to praise President Barack, LOL! It was clear during the campaigns who He was voting for and it’s clear from his description of PRESIDENT BARACK as “THIS PRESIDENT” and not “OUR PRESIDENT” that shows his concealed prejudice, it just kills Larry Stockstill to say, “OUR PRESIDENT”.

There have been many half-truths about whites voting for Pres. Barack. Yes, many voted for this black man, however, THE MAJORITY DID NOT!! Despite the record breaking number of Black registrered voters, the white vote won Louisiana for McCain and Palin. What side was Joel on? The majority of black folks in his church or did he stick with his skin clan? It’s amazing how this white kid is leading our black elders.

 

• How did they get so seduced from their churches??!!
• How did our black leaders give up their STRUGGLE for freedom from white authority and later submit to white authority(Stockstills)??!!
• How did Bethany trick our elders not to support President Barack??!!
• How did our small family churches become empty and the Stockstills’ fill up?
• How did our people abandon their historical civil rights churches for the Stockstill’s authority??!!
• How did we stop supporting historic churches for new-age occultic experiences??!!
• How did we become embarassed of our roots??!!

 

 

       It’s important to examine what Larry says about the racial divide. He made the claim that whites voting for Barack is proof that racial tension is healing. So would it not be logical that those who didn’t vote for Barack prove just the opposite? So with that in mind….

 

It’s clear the whites at Bethany who didn’t give President Barack their vote are not part of Larry Stockstill’s proof that whites voting for Pres. Barack shows racial healing. I would agree with Larry Stockstill that whites voting for a black President shows that some are healing that racial divide and are fulfilling Martin Luther’s dream that they didn’t see the color of his skin. It also brought out what was hidden under Bethany’s skin. Yes, Larry Stockstill is attempting to praise Pres. Barack ,NOW, BUT DID EVERYTHING IN HIS STRENGTH DURING THE ELECTION(with Joel’s support) TO ENSURE BARACK WOULD NOT BECOME OUR PRESIDENT. But now that his man lost and Joel’s black congregation is disgruntled about their comments, the Stockstill’s are attempting to seduce them back under THEIR authority and keep their fore-fathers churches empty.

 

     Furthermore, to elucidate how the WHITES OF LOUISIANA voted I guide you to the research by New Orleans Newspaper, The Times Picayune.  Even without their research it was clear that LOUISIANA WHITES WERE NOT GOING TO SUBMIT TO A BLACK PRESIDENT, yet blacks elders submit to a white kid(Joel Stockstill).  The article is archived at nola.com click here to access it, it also contains a visual map of the breakdown. Again, which side was Joel on. Here is a concise quote of their research:

 

 

“However, while Obama was improving on Kerry’s performance in most states — including such critical battlegrounds as Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Indiana and North Carolina — he did worse than Kerry among white voters in a handful of states — ESPECIALLY Alabama, Mississippi and LOUISIANA.”

 

AND THEN THEY SADLY CONCLUDED

 

“They[LOUISIANA, ALAMBAMA,MISSISSIPPI] are moving contrary to the rest of the country,” said Bositis, who said Obama’s race — and the historic pattern of racially polarized voting in these states — seemed the most obvious reason.”

 

 

2.)Gov.Sarah Palin wasn’t outspoken about her Christian faith, she constantly referred to herself as a “MAVERICK”, I rarely heard Jesus or Scriputre or Praying and turned her campaigns to small white towns as the “real americans”. Furthermore the “Church of America” was not behind Sarah Palin, it was the WHITE CHURCH that was behind Sarah Palin,. 

 

     There goes that double standard again, you stated unlike Barack Obama’s Church Sarah Palin’s is “Spirit-Filled”. If a church doesn’t have the Holy Spirit then it’s logical to conclude it isn’t Christian; You can’t be saved unless you’re Spirit-Filled. What a judgement you’ve made against our President!! I’ve seen the hostile whites at McCain’s campaigns, even Sen. John. McCain had to ease white voters because they scaring off a lot of minority voters. Yet, nobody at Bethany’s blogs pointed out those white-pride Christians! Nobody at Bethany rebuked Palin for her shopping spree of $150,000.00 during a terrible economy. That didn’t show good stewardship. Why the double standard??!!

We know that our church leaders prayed over President Barack.  So I guess these blacks elders fall under your double standard of not being “Spirit-Filled”. It’s a beautiful picture of blacks not falling prey to white intimidation. I feel sorry for the blacks in Bethany’s 220SU. Brothers and Sisters view the pic’ in the link below, my family actually placed this above our fireplace encased with the American Flag. I know JORDAN JOPLING  how you feel about the black church. You clearly stated it above(#2) “Unlike Barak Obama, she does attend a Spirit-filled church”.

 

SPIRIT FILLED ELDERS PRAYING FOR PRESIDENT-ELECT BARACK OBAMA

 

3.)O.K. there’s not much too say about Number-3….OF COURSE Gov. Palin is going to deny it. She also claim that she read many magazines on the economy and couldn’t name one. She responded to Katie Kouric with “Oooh I read the ones put before me“, “Oooh I read lot’s of em”, LOL!! Again, not much to say about her truthfulness. That was hillarious. What a Spirit-filled woman! She was spirit-filled(not Holy Spirit) and spoke with lying tongues.

 

 

4.)Sarah Palin didn’t shake things up!! Not unless you mean she shook things up so hard their campaign deteriorated and caused Republicans to vote for Pres. Barack(Gen.C.Powell and Armstrong Williams)Yeah in that case she shook things up allright! Plus, anyone can make vague prophecies like that and they do, it’s big business cause their are so many gullible customers. However, my definition of shaking things up would’ve been a win not a huge loss!! Even John McCain says he sees more qualified people than Sarah Palin who he hill support for the 2012 Presidency. If she was part of Prophecy it’s definitely not the one by Kim Clement. Gov. Sarah was a panicked reaction when the whites saw President Barack had a chance to win even without Hillary Clinton as Vice President. Furthermore, not one Stockstill blogged, revealed, or rebuked Sarah Palin’s daughter(Bristol Palin) for SEX OUT OF MARRIAGE and a BABY OUT OF WEDLOCK!! Instead they continued focusing on Barack Obama! Bristol Palin gave birth to her child AND STILL REMAINS UNMARRIED!! What bias you and the Stockstills have!

 

 

5.)You’re definitely doing damage control on this one, LOL. Nowhere in his post does JOEL STOCKSTILL even hint that he had to travel to one of the most expensive and richer city in the U.S. FOR “DIALYSIS” or that he stayed with a friend in West Palm Beach. In his blog entry he clearly states it was “Hot and sticky” in Baton Rouge and when he arrived in West Palm Beach it was nice to get “A.C.” Or in his own words….

 

 

“NOTHING WORSE THAN NO AC!”

 

     If his dialysis treatments were that effected, he sure didn’t complain about it or seek treatment in Louisiana, Texas, Mississippi, Georgia, Alabama, or the very close pan-handle of Florida. I’m sure there were no immediate areas for this Prosperity Preacher but “West Palm Beach” where the average single family home in 2007 was $396,000.00. For someone who constantly blogs about his health he definitely didn’t this time. In his words, “NOTHING WORSE THAN NO AC!”.

 

     Futhermore, I know people who are treated at the same facility(one is a family member who needs to stop smoking, yeah I went there on ya, LOL) and they were directed to alternate sites that were IMMEDIATELY restored. On top of that, anyone listening to the news knows that even the surrounding neighborhoods of hospitals recieved electricity. I’m also sure none of the surrounding parishes were able to take him. It’s ironic how my family member who receives the same number of treatments per week was able to remain in Louisiana and get treatment. I’m going to interview more patients and see how far they had to travel, I’m sure they couldn’t travel to West Palm Beach.

 

     Finally, he makes no mention of thanks to his “friend in West Palm Beach” for allowing him to stay in their West Palm Beach House. HOWEVER, he does state that some friends came down to visit him and join in the $hopping $pree$!! It would make more sense to thank his “friend” in West Palm Beach for allowing him to stay at his house. If he stayed with his friends in Orlando, Joel wouldn’t have said they “came down” to visit him and join in the $hopping $pree$. These friends had to travel from Orlando to West Palm Beach which is approximately 170.97 MILES which is about 2HOURS AND 42 MINUTES. Yeah but he stayed with them, SHAME ON YOU JORDAN!! Like my momma says, “TELL THE TRUTH AND SHAME THE DEVIL”.

 

“Today I had the opportunity to hang out with my good friends Jonathan and Christina Miller, who came down from Orlando. We preceded to hit EVERY MALL IN THE AREA and do some major damage of our own!”

 

     Hmmmm, sound like they were visiting his AC not vice-versa. But keep attempting to clean up behind your Sarah Palin everytime he puts his foot in his mouth! From the above evidence you clearly need to learn objectivity and stop with the damage control. Just repent and move on. Sarah Palin failed, Joel hated being without AC, and Obama is OUR President. I know it disgusts you to see that black face in a high place AND I LOVE IT!! HOW DID IT HAPPEN, huh?! Too bad FOR YOU America isn’t like THE WHITE DIXIE SOUTH!! Amen.

 And yes, I already know what Bethany is going to do to keep their biggest financial contributors(African Americans). They will promote  more black faces in high places(teachers, front pew with more black folks). The sad thing those black faces are not from black places. I’ve read their profiles they didn’t grow in black neighborhoods or went to black schools (high school or college). They’ve allowed the Stockstills to assimilate their culture.

***Please note I will interview my family member and staff at that dialysis center to get exact details concerning Gustav’s effects on their patients. But even without it, we’ve seen you’re Maverick cleanup. Again, I’m sure the other Parishes didn’t have dialysis centers or the surrounding states. It’s ironic how my family member was able to receive treatment here and didn’t have the access to church’s money for travel. I’ve also noticed Joel has added/edited his Palin Part2 blog, LOL. Feeling the heat huh?

Rodney Howard Browne And Bethany Thursday, Jul 31 2008

This article has been updated. I was unaware that the (C)hristian (R)esearch (I)nstitute updated their site and changed the links to their articles on Rodney Howard Browne and The Pensacola/Toronto Revivals. I couldn’t do better research on this Cult and scam artist so I’ll let Hank Hanegraaf’s research remain the source.

 

The C.R.I.’s journal is also on sale at Lifeway Bookstore and Books-A-Million near the Mall of Louisiana. Their latest research is a warning against the book called, “The Shack” where the author has God declaring on Pg. 182 that His son didn’t come to make anyone a Christian. I highly recommend it’s subscription.

Link to Rodney Howard Browne’s Cult:  http://www.equip.org/articles/rodney-howard-browne-and-the-toronto-blessing

 

Link in general to search results on all the articles on this cult:

 

http://www.equip.org/search.php?zoom_query=rodney+howard+browne

 

The Christian Research Institute’s book “Counterfeit Revival” on this movement is a biblically based research on how these false prophets lead many away from the Churches into unbiblical rituals like “slain in the spirit” and how Bethany requires their Cell’ leaders to speak in tongues.

 

Just like Larry Stockstill’s book “Laws of Increase”, his teacher Rodney Howard Browne claims the death of Christ not only saves us from sin but also gives us riches http://www.forgottenword.org/browne.html . I have to give credit to Mr. Browne though because he’s not scared to place his TRUE BELIEFS in his doctrinal statements. On the other hand, when you read Bethany’s “what we believe” they only list a very very small generic list. They say nothing about what they believe on the following rituals that constantly take place at Bethany:

 

1. Speaking In Tongues
2. Slain In The Spirit
3. Prosperity Gospel
4. Won’t acknowledge Black History Month
5. Teaching On Salvation By Works or Faith
6. Christians Can Lose Their Salvation
7. Christians Can Be Demon Possessed
8. Generational Curses
9. Endorsing Benny Hinn
10. Endorsing The Toronto/Pensacola Blessing Cult
11. Details About Their Real Conversion (Coercion) Process Called “Encounter”
12. Members Aren’t Given Any Details About Bethany’s Finances Like Other Churches Do
13. The Truth About Bethany Being A Denomination (Charismatic 3rd. Wave)

 

     They hide so much from the crowd. People attend this cult because their friends attend. It’s like the old Pyramid Scam relabled as a Cell Group.
