It’s funny to see a bunch of soft watered down “Christians” in the comments getting butt hurt that someone is holding a brother accountable and standing on scripture while doing so. It’s no wonder the church has failed, we got lying pastors and a whole lot of soft spineless “believers” caught in their feelings. The Bible isn’t here to affirm you, it’s here to convict you. You rock Corey - God bless 👑
Yes, they don't understand the word is Holy and to be spoken in truth and spirit. We have to not be beyond reproach. Anyone can get it 😅. As long as we hold each other accountable the word can be preached correctly and we all can get understanding 🎉
Do you know what the phrase “butt hurt” is referring to? Not good, but I agree. We need to hold people accountable, especially so called “leaders.” and their followers/fans who get into idolatry over them. It’s very silly.
@@tagladyifyThe original meaning is about a reaction to being spanked, that is figuratively, corrected. It’s only recently that sex-obsessed perverts have changed that from spanking to sodomizing.
I’m a firm believer that a lot of us younger men, should spend time learning under biblical teachers ( if the Lord permits) before we go out and try to be the ones teaching.
That is exactly what the scripture teaches: 1 Timothy 3:6 (ESV): 6 He must not be a recent convert, or he may become puffed up with conceit and fall into the condemnation of the devil. James 3:1 (ESV): 3 Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers, for you know that we who teach will be judged with greater strictness. 1 Timothy 1:6-7 (ESV): 6 Certain persons, by swerving from these, have wandered away into vain discussion, 7 desiring to be teachers of the law, without understanding either what they are saying or the things about which they make confident assertions.
I started listening to Richard Lorenzo awhile back after I heard his testimony. He's got a wonderful, powerful testimony because he use to be involved heavy in the drug scene. He made millions of dollars selling drugs and gave up that life after giving his life to Christ. I didn't know he was an evangelist until this video and I'm shocked at how wrong he is according to scripture. I think he means well and is most likely confused about scripture like a lot of these so called " Preachers. Corey.... it would be nice if you would have him on your show 😅. Thanks for the video
I desagree. What is he doing wrong? Telling people to speek in tongues aldo scripture says not everione is speaking in tongues. It also say, thoes who belived will be blesed with power from holy spirit just like speaking in tongues. We are all not perfect but tell me what is that he did so wrong? Teaching people about power that was given to us and doing it in way that can be seen as somehow goofy but remember that on other side of the screan is soul
@@patrhrikit’s the Holy Spirit who decides what gifts people are granted, we need to make sure our pastors and teachers are beyond reproach. And don’t stray from scripture
He didn’t give up anything but heartache and death in that lifestyle. He didn’t do God a favor, it was the other way around. No one but God knows the intents of the heart, but we can get an idea based on behavior what spirit people are of. If they value money, fame, etc…they are worldly and still headed in the wrong direction.
I got saved 2 months ago and I started watching Richard Lorenzo Jr, and I felt so bad and worried about my salvation bc I couldn’t speak in tongues. But recently I have been receiving discernment from the Lord and I was getting suspicious of this guy, but now I know the truth, thank u Jesus for giving me discernment and exposing Richard Lorenzo’s false teaching!✝️
Read 1 Corinthians 12, 13 & 14 to gain a deeper understanding of the gift of tongues and its proper use and intentions!! What we learn in church is not biblical - God bless 👑
The man with the bowl of cereal! lol That’s all I have to say. I appreciate this channel because it “encourages” me to not only read it but to study the Bible to show myself approved. Leaning not to my understanding but to understand the context from that which was written. That’s how come we have so many denominations, etc. due to others’ interpretation. Whew! It’s a lot. I pray for those who are misled and those who are misleading. 🙏🏽
Hey brother Corey, finally! Finally, you're calling this guy out! I was waiting for this! This dude is just another social media pastor! I live about 20 minutes from his church, so glad you're finally saying something about him! He even tells people they need to "practice" speaking in tongues to get better at it smh sheesh!
Smart Christian Life you hit the nail on the head when you said that telling people you don't have thw holy Spirit will crush them because i use to be the one that was crushed thinking something was wrong with me but God revealed the truth to me through you and your ministry! Praise God! Thank you Corey for your ministry! All your knowledge studying and sharing is amazing to me! Gof bless you
Amen. When I was younger, I truly questioned my salvation because I did not speak in tongues. But, through study and prayer I realized that I never needed to speak in tongues. That I was and am the Lord's child. God bless you for spreading truth and hope.
YOU HAVE TO SPEAK IN TONGUES. You don’t need it to be saved. But how can you not speak in ur heavenly language and feel ok about it!! That’s like travelling to LIVE IN china and not willing to learn the language
@@1Nathoo 1 Corinthians 14 “I would like every one of you to speak in tongues, but I would rather have you prophesy” all through the Bible prophets all spoke in tongues when the Holy Spirit came upon them. It’s very weird not speaking in tongues. That’s literally a language between you and God. Very beautiful. You shouldn’t feel condemned not speaking it. You should be dying to speak it!
@LouisaTman It’s nothing weird about not having the GIFT of speaking in tongues, it’s a GIFT not everyone have the same GIFTS. ”Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all workers of miracles? Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret? But earnestly desire the best gifts. And yet I show you a more excellent way.“ I Corinthians 12:29-31 NKJV
Thank you Jesus!!! I appreciate this channel & you brother!! This guy raised so many red flags 🚩 in my spirit! Glad someone is exposing this! Keep doing what you’re doing brother!
I use to follow him then the Holy Spirit gave me discernment to unfollow him and finding your channel Corey I was glad I listened to the Holy Spirit. The word of God is so precious and not to ever be played with I fear the lord our God with love knowing what He has done for me and my family and will do by his Grace and Mercy. So listening to that guy really just didn't sit right with the me mocking God translating his own narrative into his sermons is so wicked and demonic to me. Read your bible God's love for us is on every page how they come up with this mess is blasphemy.
Im so tired of this new generation of "pastors" with their mysticsism. The word of God is simple they try to over complicate it and add to it with man made traditions that are unbiblical. But God will have his justice served. Let go of your itchy ear church! Or you will fall into doctrine of demons just like these. Good job corey!
If Pastor Lorenzo is in error in this video, I hope people are uplifting him in prayer. I have watched some of his videos and genuinely believe he loves the Lord. I say this with sincerity sir, some of the people in this video are probably just coming to Christ and may not know their Bible fully yet. So I disagree that it is some of these people fault for following him. Yes, we need to follow Jesus and a lot of people don’t have home churches yet, and just milk baby Christians and not meat Christians.
@BoazBoaz-qb9ux Heretics that become apostates cannot nor desire repentance. He does love the Lord with all his heart; however, he hates the Jesus of the Bible. His Love for his Jesus is reflected in his words and actions. Therefore there is no point in praying for him. All apostates commit the unforgivable sin. He has his reward and needs be avoided.
So many people in leadership who do not belong there. Even Paul took some years to get with God and get his head on straight before he began his ministry. These people have an ability to speak or some charisma and they are thrust right out there after getting saved, probably to bring in some money in many cases, but it’s not fair to them or to the body as a whole. People need to have time to learn and grow before they can teach or preach. Some actually need to get saved.
Everybody remember, a public rebuke of your brother in the faith is the last thing the Bible tells us to do. Also, to slander, and to make presumptuous accusations about them based on their old life is never something God would call us to do. To all who is reading, I pray that you be led into deeper intimacy with our God, and that he would reveal to you the mysteries of the Spirit. It will always look like foolishness to those who live by the flesh.
Wow I personally have been led closer to Chris because of LorenzoJr. Ministry I relate to some.of his testimony. I follow his ministry and know God is using him in a mighty way No one is perfect, and he is growing, like we all are
If he’s still GROWING, then he needs to sit down and wait till God finishes his Schooling!!!! Meanwhile you need to study and ask for Wisdom and Discernment. You study to show yourself APPROVED!!!!
@@ELZZEYE According to scripture, those who are leaders are called to a higher standard, you didn’t know that? 🤦🏾 Read James 3:1 if you want to get educated on the Bible, this backs up what I’m saying here. It’s not up for debate ☝️
I discerned he wasn't right when I saw him interview a young boy who evangelised and claimed he had special encounters with Christ. This guy seemed to be consumed with the amount of followers he had. He almost sounded envious of the young boy with his insincere complements. If anyone sees it, they will see what I'm saying.😢 He seems to be more consumed with clout than Christ.
Thank you brother Corey! If we can see the zoom participants, can’t Lorenzo see them as well? He never called out the guy eating cereal (and I know it goes deeper than that), good that he did not participate. I never heard of Lorenzo! I’m grateful for the exposure of the unknown individuals who are putting out false doctrines. Lord please help us to see through Your Holy Spirit🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
One God One Faith one Baptism...Full water immersion. After he demanded everyone to speak in tongues I couldn't watch anymore. Sorry brother Corey..I'm out! My spirit is grieved.
by using the Bible. see 1 John 4:1 and 1 Cor 14:29. we are warned by Jesus, Peter, John, and Paul about false prophets and teachers. That was for all of us to take notice
When I got first saved, I always knew what to do to be saved. I never thought being baptized saved you, but when I was newly saved, I wanted to be baptized so bad that I started researching I baptized myself four years later I finally got baptized in the churchin the name of the father son and the Holy Spirit amen
Yep. Glad i never attended his church. I considered a few times because it was close to me, but it only took me watching about 3 services online to see the red flags. Then I was like nopity nope.
Is The same false teaching of the last reformation group @TheLastReformation: Torben Sondergaard I pray for all those people so that they can escape these false doctrines that are demon-induced, because the result is a false gospel, a strange fire on the altar of the Lord and we know well what happens to the Nadab and Abihu. Peace and grace of the Lord Jesus Christ with you.
Hahaha..... My grandmother always says a similar thing, she would say 'dry sinner' instead. And listen, I was baptised without faith in the Lord, so these days when I share my testimony, I use those words. 😂😂😂😂
“Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God” (John 3:5) “Again I say to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them.” Let’s bring unity in the spirit and speak words of life! Lifting up and edifying one another with encouragement.
I had watched one of Richard Lorenzo Jr videos and the Lord used him through a RU-vid video to 1. Cast demons out of me 2. Prayed for the baptism of the Holy Spirit, where when he did, it felt like my entire body lit up with light 3. Prayed for the gift of speaking in tongues, and I started speaking in tongues. Richard Lorenzo Jr is a True Man of God and has an amazing Ministry.
Even if everything you said was true, that does not make him a "True man of God" as you put it. Even devils masquerade as angels of light. The proof is in the fact that he is not teaching sound doctrine and is straying from the scripture.
@@billyhuey3182Ppl need to stop being religious atheist. If this dude has a problem with Richard he needs to inbox him and talk to him abt that. Most the church is false anyways😂.
Corey why don’t you try to educate this young man in Christ instead of criticizing all of people who truly confess to have a heart for God? I follow this man’s page and he has had a very dark past that God has delivered him from and he’s trying to save one soul at a time. So why not reach out and help him rather than criticize? Not everyone who is called possess the same gifts but We as believers can help our brothers and sisters in Christ become better. We all are trying to get to heaven, let us come together and save souls
Perhaps you have his contact information, because I don't. The best I could do is tag his channel which I've done. However, biblically, warning the body is not. predicated upon speaking to the wolf first
@@SmartChristiansLife I disagree that he’s a wolf, but I know for a fact that he is in error. Which can be corrected by a wise elder for sure. However I will pray for this young man
@@kaylasweet5431 If he is teaching water baptism is necessary for salvation or encouraging them to get water baptized in order for them to be saved, he most certainly is a wolf, that's a false gospel, we are not saved by water baptism.
Thank you Cory, not only does your channel calls out false teachers, but there is solid teachings at the same time. Guys like this will never humble themselves and admit that they are wrong.
You don’t know that. Maybe he will see the video and see the error of his ways. I was called a hypocrite and critical because I said if he is in error pray for him. I disagreed with a comment of the Christians that follow him is at fault because they may not know better, because they don’t fully understand their Bible yet. I am talking from experience.
Cory, I have to disagree about the baptism situation. The thief on the cross was the only one who didn’t need baptism. Every believer, and even the first Gentiles got baptized. Matter of fact, they even rebaptized a few believers because they were baptized under John’s baptism and not Jesus name. Why do people try to decouple baptism? If Jesus got baptized who was perfect and holy, all who have faith in him should. Are there exceptions? Sure! If someone is on their deathbed literally, I think repentance and faith alone will be enough. But all who are able to be baptized should be
Agree with you....Baptism is important as Christ point it out....if the thief on the cross had the opportunity to be baptized, he would, but his true repentance was enough for Christ to forgive him and accepted him into the Kingdom
@@Bruce.-Wayne exactly but then those who argue that we preach a works based salvation would say we are wrong smh. This is how satan divides. Little foxes
@@Bruce.-WayneWhat you guys are missing is that Jesus knew the Thief’s heart and he could have already been Baptized but not revealed to us in the translation. After all we only have 66 books. Not everything is in the Bible. Baptism is very critical to get into Heaven according to the many words of Jesus. We ought not to water it down because we lack full understanding or other false believers may have indoctrinated some with the same false belief. Jesus made it plain and simple yet the deceivers are making Baptism as a choice. 🤦🏽♀️ Nobody is Saved until Resurrection. Periodt. Are y’all gonna take Jesus word for it or what a RU-vidr tells you? MARK 16:16 “He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.”KJV JOHN 3:5 “Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.”KJV
Water baptism is NOT NEEDED AT ALL for salvation. Water baptism is more like a public declaration of faith. God doesn't switch up His rules. Either its necessary, or it isn't. No in between or exceptions
@@samirpernell2136 so why did Jesus get baptized? If anyone didn’t need it, he was the one who didn’t. Also, why did everyone on every account get baptized if it wasn’t necessary? The Ethiopian and Phillip, Cornelius, the jailer whom Paul witnessed to, and countless others. Why would you change what has been preached in Scripture? That’s very dangerous
I was saved, baptized, and received the baptism of the Holy Spirit, and gifts of prophecy and speaking in tongues on Microsoft teams. Does it still count if it’s not zoom?
What I would actually say is watch his sermons Tuesday, Saturday on repeat and see how many people get delivered. See how many people that get delivered, along with how many souls are brought to Christ and Christian’s that are filled with the Holy Spirit can have demons. The one saved always saved mindset is what leads people to live in Luke warm lives, (revelation 3:15-18) I was confused on it in the beginning as well then I was like wow the eyes really are the lamp the soul, and our battle is against darkened spirits and principalities, not flesh and blood. I started looking at scripture with spiritual eyes rather than just black and white philosophical paper. It does say in the Bible not to debate scripture. This isn’t a scriptural problem. It’s a spiritual problem. Jesus is love and all of these comments & video here do not come from love. I really hoped before you posted this video that you prayed to god and asked for guidance if this video was for his people to hear or if it was done out of flesh. Matthew 12:26 And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand? If you actually take one day to watch one of the sermons you will see, he never gives credit to himself. He said it’s the Holy Spirit working through him and Jesus Christ is the only one that can cast out demons heal the sick and save you. This message comes from love because I was in your shoes one time, I think you really need to spend time praying to God to reveal the truth to you because this video is not it. At the end of this life, we will not only be judged on our lives, but the ones that we let astray. There’s a difference between reading the Scriptures and reading the scripture with spiritual discernment. There’s a difference of reading the scripture black-and-white like the Pharisees did and reading it with the spiritual wisdom and discernment of the Holy Spirit that dwell inside you.
That’s super misleading…You really need to pray for truth because what you’re saying is not what the Bible teaches, What this man is doing is creating false converts..
@@billyhuey3182I see you replying to every comment and just want to leave you with this verse. You seem to be replying to comments with a spirit that comes off like a mocker & scoffer. “But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.” I Corinthians 2:14 NKJV
This is insane how spiritually lost the church is deliverance is real tongues is real this Pharisee spirit is running rampant Satan cannot cast out Satan for a kingdom divided cannot stand the power of god is at work and y’all can’t see it I don’t agree with extreme charismatic behavior however god never stopped working spiritually neither has Satan
Corey, you hurt some feelings with Lorenzo followers. This exposure to his false teachings hopefully opens their eyes and leads them to read and study the Bible for truth instead of following and protecting a false teacher that they apparently love. The truth hurts sometimes.
This has nothing to doth with this guy because you are against deliverance and baptism of the Holy Spirit. How many videos you done on these topics alone? Too many. You find what you disagree with & make a video on it. Have you done deliverance yourself? You believe in Once Save Always Save (you said it in your videos). The Bible speaks on two baptism: one in water & other in the Holy Spirit. Jude 1:20
I desagree. What is he doing wrong? Telling people to speek in tongues aldo scripture says not everione is speaking in tongues. It also say, thoes who belived will be blesed with power from holy spirit just like speaking in tongues. We are all not perfect but tell me what is that he did so wrong? Teaching people about power that was given to us and doing it in way that can be seen as somehow goofy but remember that on other side of the screan is soul
He's misleading people by giving false information. That's why we should read the Bible for ourselves so that when things like this happen, we know how to properly guide people to the truth.
Hey man!!! Why want you reach out to your brothers and invite them to have a conversation with you. You have a lot to say about your own brothers without ever sitting down with them. Show us some videos with you and the person you have an issue with actually sitting down dialoguing!! Peace To You Man Of God.
I ve watched him. He used to be involved in witchcraft and got saved. I believe some have good intention but need a lot of growth and don’t have good foundation. Smart Christian channel spend a lot of time criticizing, sometimes rightfully, but is not so spiritually knowledgeable.
I spend the majority of time in teaching. You may want to venture over to the main channel. Here's a video you may like. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2nHr7iMXLp8.html As far as not spiritually knowledgeable, please explain. In what way?
@@SmartChristiansLife Colossians 3:12 *As God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience* You judge from self righteousness at times, unable to discern the good from the bad.
I cannot argue with someone who will ignore the warnings of scripture while at the same time ignoring and defending heresy and false teachings. I wish you well.
@@alluringbliss4165Corey’s role is to warn believers and call them out or heretical churches, just like the Old Testament prophets did. Who are you to judge what God has called Corey to do? Take care of the log in your eye.
One saved is not always saved.. pray to God and actually ask him if this is a false prophet or not, and he will reveal it to you. Remember the Pharisees? Be careful of what you are saying… we will all be judged on judgement day. Don’t come at every pastor in the flesh. Pray in the spirit and pray to Jesus and all the answers will be given to you.
A lot of Religious people on here. I wonder if you all actually believe that the Gifts of The Spirit are for today - or does that sound too unbiblical for you too?
@@SmartChristiansLifeso where does it say in the bible that tongues aren’t for today? “For if you have the ability to speak in tongues, you will be talking only to God, since people won’t be able to understand you. You will be speaking by the power of the Spirit, but it will all be mysterious.” 1 Corinthians 14:2
Although I don’t agree with this from Richard it’s a lot of stuff I do agree with concerning the gospel that he has preached. I’ve followed him for awhile and I know truth. He doesn’t believe baptism saves you. Not taking up for him or anything but few things he does I don’t agree with but I can’t say he’s a heretic because I’ve listened to him preach. I think he focus so much of the supernatural because of his background of being a warlock. This vid was early on in his ministry. I sense Richard as an impulsive person. Which I think hurts him in the long run.
Why are these people so obsessed with tongues?. I dont get it. There are so many scriptures about studying, reading Gods Word, worshiping God, prayer etc....and very few about speaking in tongues!
He backs up and calls danial adams a strong man of God and he appeared on sid roths supernatural show and his wife is a pastor at his church and he is a wanabe rapper and speaking in tongues is not babbling. The fruit says it all
Brother I’ll be honest. You just make vids criticizing brothers and sisters in the body instead of praying 🙏 for them. You have a strong religious spirit. You need to repent for just tearing people down. Use your gift to uplift them in prayer. Reach out to them. This isn’t Christ like.
Ephesians 5:11 - And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. Romans 16: 17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. 18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.
I'd rather get baptized irl than zoom. We're no longer in lock downs and how much we're sucked into social media or anything like that is beyond scary for me, than to any end time prophecy, even if he's a false teacher or not, doing baptisms on zoom is kind of strange and wrong for me
I don’t like this. Honestly respectfully your causing confusion and discord in the body of Christ this is what draws people away from Jesus they get church hurt and it causes them to lose faith. Jesus said go out and make disciples.
Jesus as well as Paul, Peter, John, Jude, etc warned against false teachers and even called them out. No verse in the Bible teaches us to not warn against false teachers. Protecting the flock does not cause division. However, letting wolves in does.
Richard Lorenzo Jr. is biblical. Sure, this is unorthodox. But to call him a devil worshiper (as he actively preaches the kingdom) is bad. How can satan be casting out satan? A house divided against itself can't stand! He practices Ephesians 5:11 well. Psalm 105:15. Acts 5:39.
He's not casting out anything and he certainly is not biblical. I would not call him a devil worshiper, but he sure is not preaching the kingdom. This is some evangelical, charismatic, nonsense.
We can’t get on people about scripture when you are out of order, not every one has the Holy Ghost from salvation. The scripture teaches that the baptism of Holy Ghost is speaking in tongues
WRONG: Acts chapter 2 verse 38: Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off-for all whom the Lord our God will call.” Tongues is just one of the gifts of the spirit, not the only evidence of it. 1 Corinthians 14 1 Follow the way of love and eagerly desire spiritual gifts, especially the gift of prophecy. 2 For anyone who speaks in a tongue [1] does not speak to men but to God. Indeed, no one understands him; he utters mysteries with his spirit. [2] 3 But everyone who prophesies speaks to men for their strengthening, encouragement and comfort. 4 He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the church. 5 I would like every one of you to speak in tongues, [3] but I would rather have you prophesy. He who prophesies is greater than one who speaks in tongues, [4] unless he interprets, so that the church may be edified. 6 Now, brothers, if I come to you and speak in tongues, what good will I be to you, unless I bring you some revelation or knowledge or prophecy or word of instruction? 7 Even in the case of lifeless things that make sounds, such as the flute or harp, how will anyone know what tune is being played unless there is a distinction in the notes? 8 Again, if the trumpet does not sound a clear call, who will get ready for battle? 9 So it is with you. Unless you speak intelligible words with your tongue, how will anyone know what you are saying? You will just be speaking into the air. 10 Undoubtedly there are all sorts of languages in the world, yet none of them is without meaning. 11 If then I do not grasp the meaning of what someone is saying, I am a foreigner to the speaker, and he is a foreigner to me. 12 So it is with you. Since you are eager to have spiritual gifts, try to excel in gifts that build up the church. 13 For this reason anyone who speaks in a tongue should pray that he may interpret what he says. 14 For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is unfruitful. 15 So what shall I do? I will pray with my spirit, but I will also pray with my mind; I will sing with my spirit, but I will also sing with my mind. 16 1st Corinthians 12: 7 Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good. 8 To one there is given through the Spirit a message of wisdom, to another a message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit, 9 to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit, 10 to another miraculous powers, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in different kinds of tongues,[a] and to still another the interpretation of tongues.[b] 11 All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he distributes them to each one, just as he determines.
