Hello, ladies and gentlemen, my name is Justin Peters. I hope that you and your family are doing well today

00:05

I want to thank you very much for joining me for this podcast and A few weeks ago

00:10

Kenneth Copeland held what he has termed a victory thon Which is his version of a telethon to raise money for his ministry

00:20

KCM Kenneth Copeland's ministries and that is really a

00:27

Absurd on its face because Kenneth Copeland brags about being a billionaire with a

00:33

B as in Bravo billionaire and so That he would raise money

00:39

See he has more money than he could ever spend if he wanted to especially now that he's 84 years old

00:45

But rather than using his own money Some of that billion dollars.

00:51

No, he would rather get his money from You and so he holds a victory thon

00:57

To raise money and so he brings in some of the heavy hitters in the word -faith movement

01:03

Jesse Duplantis notable among them and I watched this was a two -day event and I watched a lot of it

01:11

And I tell you what I could have I could develop an entire clouds without water seminar just off of that two -day

01:19

Victory thon that he held but and I'll probably show you some clips from that in future videos

01:26

But I want to show you this one and it's a short clip, but I tell you what if it's very illustrative it's a it's a clip from Jesse Duplantis and he is there with Kenneth Copeland and George Pearsons who is

01:42

Kenneth Copeland's son -in -law and Jesse Duplantis talks starts talking about Zacchaeus Luke chapter 19 and What he says here is is rather short, but it is very

01:56

Revealing and if you ever had any doubt as to whether or not the word -faith movement constitutes a different gospel

02:06

This clip should put all of those doubts to rest watch what Jesse Duplantis Says about Zacchaeus and notice that Kenneth Copeland and George Pearsons give their approval to it watch

02:19

You know, I was preaching this the other day that opposites attract but so the outcasts attract

02:25

Zacchaeus was an outcast but so was Jesus on the other spectrum an outcast I think about that when he saw that man

02:33

Zack I could just call him Zack He saw something in Zacchaeus and no one else did you know what he saw most people believe in original sin

02:41

Some people read rivers that he believed in original goodness. Yeah, I said the Lord to me said I believe in original goodness

02:47

I could see the good in that man. Yeah, so Jesse Duplantis says that when

02:52

Jesus saw Zacchaeus He didn't see Apparently a sinner.

02:58

No, he didn't see original sin. No, he saw original goodness He saw something good in that man

03:05

And then you see Kenneth Copeland and George Pearsons, you know give their nod of approval.

03:11

Yeah. Yeah That is stunning. That is absolutely Stunning. I mean this is not just You know saying things like we do a lot, you know, you'll say well so and so is a good guy

03:26

And I say things like that, you know, you know Billy Bob down there, you know, he's he's a good fella You know,

03:32

Sally Sue she's you know, she's a good lady and you know, you know, he's a good brother, you know I mean we say things like that all the time and and and that's okay, but but Because we say it in just kind of in a general sense but Jesse Duplantis didn't do that.

03:50

He got very specific. He actually named Original sin and he said, you know, some people believe in original sin, but but I believe in original goodness

03:59

You know Bible teaches original goodness, so he's getting theological here That this is a flat -out denial of original sin and friends

04:10

You have completed completely gutted the gospel. You have turned the gospel on its head

04:16

The cross of Jesus Christ now is completely Meaningless he died in vain if what

04:25

Jesse Duplantis said is true, which it's not but I want it.

04:30

I want us to go to just a few texts. All right, shall we in fact Romans 512? Let's go there first Romans 512.

04:37

This is the this is the one of the go -to text for Original sin this doctrine the

04:44

Apostle Paul writes therefore just as through one man Adam, of course sin entered into the world and death through sin and So death spread to all men because all

04:57

Sinned there it is dear friends right there. You can't get around that when Adam and Eve sinned

05:03

Sin entered the world death through sin and death spread to all men because all sinned

05:09

So every man and woman who has ever drawn breath upon the face of this earth since Adam and Adam and Eve they were born into sin because death spreads

05:20

Just like a spiritual virus it spread it is in the spiritual bloodstream of Every single human being who is ever existed

05:30

Okay Let's go to another text. Let's go to Romans 3 10 through 12 the Apostle Paul writes

05:36

There is none righteous not even one. There is none who understands there is none who seeks for God parenthetically

05:46

There are a lot of people out there that want to scratch a religious itch and so they're seeking after a

05:51

God But they're not seeking after the God of the Bible. They may even be seeking after a

05:57

Jesus But they're not seeking after the Jesus of the Bible. They're seeking after a Jesus That they have made in their own image

06:05

Not the Jesus of the Bible the Mormon Jesus the Jehovah's Witnesses Jesus the

06:11

Muslim the Islam Islamic Jesus, you know Muslims believe in Jesus, too They just don't believe that he's the

06:17

Son of God. They don't believe that he is God. They have a different Jesus and so And in the

06:23

Jesus that the word faith movement Portrays is a different Jesus the

06:29

Jesus that promises you health and wealth that is a different Jesus than the Jesus of the

06:35

Bible the Jesus that would look at a Sinful person and Zacchaeus this was a sinful man.

06:41

He had not yet been converted in Jesus Look at him and see good in him. No, sir. No, ma 'am.

06:47

This is a different Jesus in the Jesus of the Bible So anyway back to the text Paul writes all have turned aside

06:54

Together they have become what? Worthless there is none who does good.

07:00

There is not even one How much more clear could the Bible be there is none who does good?

07:07

Not even one Ephesians chapter 2 teaches that we are dead in our transgressions.

07:15

We are dead in our sins difference We're we're not spiritually sick. Okay, we don't have a spiritual cold

07:21

We're not even in we're not even in the spiritual ICU. We are in the spiritual morgue.

07:28

We are tag -on -the -toe Dead and there is nothing that a dead man can do for himself

07:35

This is just stunning to me that Jesse Duplantis and Kenneth Copeland George Pearsons He's these men of God who's been studying for the

07:44

Bible for decades They don't understand this basic fundamental

07:51

Christianity 101 truth Psalm chapter 51 David writes behold.

07:56

I was brought forth in iniquity and in sin. My mother conceived me

08:02

We are sinners by nature we are sinners from birth from consent not from birth from conception

08:12

We are sinners by our deeds of unrighteousness We are sinners through and through and what did

08:20

Jesus tell the rich young ruler in Mark chapter 10 when? The rich young ruler ran up to him and said, you know good teacher

08:28

What must I do to inherit eternal life and Jesus says why do you call me good? No one is good except God a lot of people misunderstand that they they think oh

08:38

Jesus was calling into question his own goodness. No, not at all Jesus was not correcting that rich young ruler as we call him.

08:47

He was he was leading him He was saying okay now I'm gonna stop you right there You call me good, but why?

08:55

Why do you call me good? Do you call me good because you you think I tell some good stories and spend some good yarns and do some nice things for People or do you call me good because you recognize who

09:07

I am You do you call me good because you understand that there is only one who is good.

09:12

That is God and I am God Jesus was not correcting him.

09:18

He was leading him Jesus was making a statement right there about his deity.

09:24

There is only one who is good and that is God and Jesus is God Friends this is just stunning

09:31

You see it's not that these word -faith preachers never mentioned sin They do on occasion not a lot, but but they do but if you watch these folks

09:41

Long enough and watch them as long as I have sin is is almost never presented biblically sin is

09:49

More often than not Way more often than not. It's not presented as High treason that we commit against a thrice

10:00

Holy God That incurs his righteous wrath and the wrath of God abides on us because of our sin

10:07

It's not presented that way sin is presented in more Horizontal terms in other words sin is presented as something that just hurts you

10:18

It it hinders you it prevents you from Having your best life now hat tip to Joel Osteen.

10:27

So sin is it's not that it's never mentioned It's just not presented biblically and for Jesse Duplantis and Kenneth Copeland George Pearsons and I could go on and on Todd White has said the same exact things as this, you know

10:41

But we're just so valuable and you know, God sees our value and you just can't imagine having

10:46

Eternity without us Like God has a man -shaped hole in his heart.

10:51

You see this is just friends. You're you've completely gutted the gospel if we are

10:59

Inherently good if Zacchaeus for in this example was inherently good then he had no need of redemption if we are inherently good then

11:10

We have no need of being saved, but the Bible is very clear There is only one who is good

11:16

Theologically speaking by his character by his nature. There is only one who is good and that is

11:22

God this was not just Jesse Duplantis saying Oh Zacchaeus.

11:28

He was a good guy. No, he got theological. He was very specific He mentioned original sin and he said the

11:34

Bible doesn't even teach that talks about original goodness This is stunning and in Jesse Duplantis You from time to time you'll hear him brag about how he is

11:43

Dr. Jesse Duplantis He's got an honorary doctor.

11:49

I mean, it's not even an earned doctor and you can tell I mean this You could go to a you could go to a to most nine -year -olds and vacation

11:57

Bible school At most any evangelical church and they would have more Bible knowledge than Jesse Duplantis does

12:05

Honestly, I mean, it's just stunning but you have completely Gutted the gospel when you say that man is inherently good different gospel dear friends different Jesus different gospel

12:22

Jesse Duplantis is not a Christian Kenneth Copeland is not a Christian. You cannot teach the things they teach and be indwelt by the

12:30

Holy Spirit of God It's just not possible The real gospel is that you and I are sinners and because of our sin

12:38

We have incurred the righteous wrath of a thrice Holy God and the only way to be saved from that wrath to have the wrath of God removed

12:48

Is to repent of sin turn from sin and place our trust in the atoning work that Jesus Christ Accomplished for us on the cross this perfect person fully

12:59

God fully man Laid down his perfect life as a perfect sacrifice to perfectly satisfy the perfect wrath of God There is salvation in no one else

13:12

You're not good No, not one. There is only one who is good.

13:17

That is God Repent of your sin place your trust in Christ and you will be saved and mr.

13:24

Duplantis if by some chance you are watching this I don't hate you I don't want you to go to hell, but that is where you're headed right now repent of your sin and Trust Christ and if you truly repent if God truly grants you repentance

13:39

Then the fruit of that one of the fruits of that will be that you will shut your ministry down Because you'll realize that you are not qualified to teach the

13:48

Bible All right, dear friends. Thank you very much for watching until our next time together May the grace of our
