Interview with Paula White on Flashpoint

Here is a clip from the interview with Paula White on a Tampa Bay talk show Flashpoint. I think this was a good interview - Brendan was direct, confronted issues that interest the viewers, while still being fair to Paula.

It is really puts to shame the radio interview conducted by Detroit's Paul Edwards - Edwards professes to be a man of God, but quite frankly, I think that he was brutal - and that is not cute, it is not funny, and it is not Christian. The Edwards interview stinks of his Pharaseic theology. New Testament Christianity is not about one man making up rules for another, but about LIFE IN CHRIST - CHRIST IN ME. The Bible tells us that unless no one can see the kingdom of heaven unless they are born again. And I really do believe that the enemy has infiltrated the church (the places people congregate on Sunday mornings) and is blinding God's people - but only the born again can identify the wolves from the sheep. Who are the wolves? They are those that are condemning and judging their brothers and sisters instead of believing that it is God that raises one up and sits one down. They are those that follow man's ritualistic traditions instead of the promptings of the Lord. They are those that try to use natural logic to discern spiritual things. They are those that follow rules for the sake of working their way into the good graces of God. Often, their hearts are in the right place, but they have the wrong motive. They have been deceived by the god of this world.

Your adversary (the devil) does not even like you enough to hate you. He is not going to go out of his way just to "trip you up" if you are not living for the Lord. In his eyes, you are not worth his time. The enemy is attacking those who know the Lord and have decided that it is Him that they will follow. He is attacking those that work to advance the kingdom of God.
But the devil forgot,

GREATER IS HE THAT IS IN ME THAN HE THAT IS WITHIN THE WORLD.

I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST WHO STRENGTHENS ME.

I WILL PRESS ON TOWARD THE PRIZE FOR WHICH GOD HAS CALLED ME.

THOUGH THEY ATTACK, WHEN I AM AFRAID, I WILL TRUST IN THE LORD.

The adversary that has infiltrated the church is trying to win this battle by creating a lot of lukewarm Christians. But in Revelation 3:15-17, the Lord is clear:

I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot.

I wish you were either one or the other!

So, because you are lukewarm—

neither hot nor cold—

I am about to spit you out of my mouth.

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.

(what can I say after THAT! I am having "chu'ch here by myself now...PREPARE YE THE WAY OF THE LORD!)
