I know this pastor. I grew up with him and he is legit. He preaches the true gospel. We have been trained to think just because some churches are larger and use gimmicks to illustrate a point or even if they enjoy prosperity that they are corrupt. That’s not always the case.
@@cocopuffitupI mean a few things for you as someone who isn't religious. A) Child brides are still a very real and common thing in the world. If this comes as a surprise to you , I apologize but I also suggest you educate yourself. B ) You can't really judge the past by modern standards and you can't dismiss the whole of something off of one negative facet of it. It's disingenuous and weakens your point. C) There are far better ways to critique scripture, it requires more effort and research, but it makes the critique so much more meaningful. You'll find most of the biggest intellectuals who critique and argue against religion, study the subject matter extensively. Look at Bart erhman and Christopher Hitchens for example. Enjoy your day☺️
@@MM-pv5tp im atheists and i agree. Instead of elaborate plays maybe the church should start being a place that is useful to society. I mean Christians always claim the moral high ground and hardly any of them prove it. All that space can accommodate homeless or at least can host a feeding the homeless
You guys really need to get over yourself now you sit there and watch the whole Christmas play with the angel fly in on the rig. But now we gotta be doing something wrong. You all need to stop disparaging and keep your mouth off of these pastors, I have been in prayer and the thing I keep getting over and over is that God is not judging the people y’all clowning! He’s looking at your comments and the darkness of your hearts. I’ll go down swinging telling you that that is exactly what the Holy Ghost said clean up your heart because Jesus has to present without wrinkle or blemish and it’s the ugliness of us that he’s more worried about than it. Is somebody coming in OK if he had that on a angel thing and he played the angel in the play you wouldn’t have had no problem whatsoever. Folks, we really have to wake up and take a walk in their boots and their pumps. Would you want somebody clowning you is the thing that I just keep also wondering myself when I read the comments and say, God will not with this mean you got these for clowning the people you got this over here I’m just like Jesus, the hypocrisy of it all is what’s so crazy about it and that’s why kids don’t wanna come to church no more research sided reason why they consider themselves spiritual, and will never come to church is because of our hypocrisy. Think about it. Same rig cord.❤
Our church is also entertaining but it's still about God and shit like that, it's just not boring like everything else They even have programs for kids where they teach them Bible stuff too, but in a play style thing
@@B3lph3g0ryou have been misled if u don’t see a problem with this, let the Bible alone be your standard of what is holy. What is of the world cannot be of God.
@@Soyebakhtar0208Allah is false god, Jesus is king. 1. Muhammad was choked in a cave by a demon pretending to be an angel. I have done this before many times and can tell you by the testimony of Jesus Christ. 2. You follow a works based religion, as does every other religion on the entire world except Christianity. 3. Muhammad was a murderer (see 1 John.)
Yea I’m a Christian and I dont get why everyone is beating on the pastor. He was legit just having a bit of fun. It’s not like they spent church money to make it happen. I don’t see the issue here…

@@christopherwalkinalloverya5824 How foolish it is to hold to a belief without trying to see if you are wrong. If I am willing to listen to an atheist's claims, why can't you listen to a Christian's claims? If Jesus wasn't resurrected, and everything about it was false. Then that would make Christians the most miserable people on earth. And so likewise with anyone who doesn't believe in Him; making it extremelly important to seek the truth.
Exactly. I'm usually cautious and skeptical when it comes to people preaching false doctrines and I don't hesitate to call them out. But in this case, I don't see why people in the comments are insinuating malicious intent by the pastor. Yeah, I probably wouldn't do myself, but hey, this is just a guy who is trying to be relatable to his audience. It's not that deep. He was just doing something cool with HUMILITY. You can literally see his humility in the way he spoke after it. It's church. Yes, we should be serious with teaching. But, we don't have to always be uptight. Regardless though, I must add that the house of God isn't for buying and selling and nonsense. But I don't think God is against His people having a good smile once in a while during service.
@@vicadegboye684That's the problem I have is focus on the pastor , It's HIS CHURCH and wants all the ATTENTION ON HIM SO HE LOOKS 😎 Jesus didn't want ANY ATTENTION ON HIMSELF BUT ALL TO GOD ..ALSO IVE BEEN THERE TO THAT CHURCH AND THE FIRST THING YOUR MET WITH IS EVERYTHING FOR SALE , MUGS , SHIRTS , CD'S, TURNING GODS HOUSE INTO A STORE FRONT 😢
Pastor’s are not here for you to laugh. They are here to get you right with GOD. These full of the devil preachers 🤣🤣🤣do everything except preach the true words of the bible. God said i am holy, why are you all these other man made religion 😀🙏
Tell that to the pastors..... When i first saw an ATM machine in the lobby of one of my old churches, that was my cue to exit stage left and never go back again. Church TODAY is nothing but a fashion show & a huge piggy bank for the heads of the church.
Its God's house but Jesus established a new covenant. Whith, baptism, CONFESSION, and the Eucharist . This are the laws for God's new covenant. If we are dancing, and ignore what jesus ordained with His Apostles. We live millions of people to die in their sins. Which is exactly what is happening. According to Virgim Mary. A false gospel is going around the world. People are being told if they accept Jesus as our LORD and saviour they are already saved. This is an heresy. Jesus established, sacraments, for us to live in communion with God. By living what jesus ordained, we must believe Jesus is our God and saviour.
The Show! It’s all about the show! Churches should be lifting up Jesus and let the circus do the zip line. THIS is what is wrong with our churches today.
It is a sad day for the Christian church when pastors look to draw so much attention to themselves instead of so much attention to the Word of God and salvation.
I think it was just a Pastor having fun. sometimes I think people are so religious that fun is a sin. That's one of the reasons Jesus rebuked the Pharisees. 460 rules and regulations that were not in the bible. So many that they were keeping people from Jesus. I would have laughed and tried to take a turn.
@@JustinDAMusic Okay, got it. No fun in church. You have too go to the club to have fun, the football game, or a school. I will instruct my kids immediately that joking or having fun in church is not allowed only in secular places. Stop it.........

Every Church is a problem! Revelation 18:4 “COME OUT OF HER MY PEOPLE!” The Believers are the Church~ “LIVING STONES STACKED ONE UPON ANOTHER & JESUS IS THE HEAD~CORNERSTONE.” Jesus told Peter, "I will build my church" (Matthew 16:18). Jesus’ Church is NOT in a building & most who attend a church….”ARE NOT PART OF HIS TRUE & HOLY CHURCH.” You just witnessed 1 of hundreds of thousands examples. 🤦🏼♀️
@@JesusisLOVEJohn- Christianity, Religion and especially worship is supposed to humble us, give proper adoration to our LORD and teach us to obey His commandments of love more deeply. THIS video does not show anything close to that. THIS video is all about putting all eyes on the Pastor. The Traditional Christian worship has always put JESUS at the Center of the worship service and has downplayed the role of the Priest. American Protestanism doesn't even know what it is doing on Sunday morning and this is why they are in such decline.
@@PatrickSteil The 1st Paragraph I agree with. The 2nd Paragraph I can't say that's true or false because I don't know what the intent was. Was it Humor? IDK. Let God judge him. As far as the 3rd paragraph goes, I agree with the 1st sentence but I can't say the same about the 2nd. Are there bad Protestant churches? Of course. Are there good ones? Of course. Let God judge them. Are we supposed to be "fruit" inspectors? Again of course. But to presume something despite it looking a certain way I don't think is the best way to go about it. We should pray that if his intentions were askew then let the Lord correct him on that. God bless you, my brother, and have happy new year!!!😊

Demonstrate that a God exists. Scripture is not evidence. Anecdotal evidence is not evidence. Present verifiable evidence or your unverified claims will be rejected.
What’s the harm in having a good laugh at church? The video said the zipline was there for a completely different event, not for the church. What’s so bad about a good, funny joke?
Why do they make church a show and entertainment when the focus should be on Jesus alone not the pastor. Jesus is Lord and we need to respect the house of worship.
It is better to enjoy a fun church where you will eventually learn something by heart. Than church that you go to just hear but never learn anything. Like a child, they learn by playing and having fun and laughing together. Or when Jesus taught they were together, he taught them, they laughed together, they enjoyed being around him. Of if you still don't understand, you been to school. Who did you learn from the most? A. A fun teacher B. A strict teacher
Circus and clowns have a lot of entertainment. People is looking for what they want and that's exactly what they want. @BigSerg I'm agree with you. But this place doesn't represent Church of God.
@marcelol.folgar7443 I'm sure people did not ask for entertainment but it's a interesting way to grab the people's attention for the preaching, this does not offend God in any way, as a guy is just entering a church with a Zipline, he is not being specifically being a clown but he just wants to bring some joy to what life has to give
Very common now with buzz words for entertainment, especially with some of the songs. There is no reverence and they are not aware of the Holiness of God.and if He came into the room we would not be able to stand as he is so perfect and powerful.

Your supposed "real" father has done nothing about the warcrimes committed against humanity, has watched millions of innocent and defenseless people suffer, yet does not do anything or does not care? Maybe because your "real" father is a immoral, unjust god of many, that ordered an old man to kill his own son, stopped him right before he killed him and then ordered the genital mutilation of all his sons after him even after he obeyed and listened? The same god out of many that listened to the devil, knowing that a man by the name of Job was faithful, and still tortured him and took away everything he had including his family. And then the god of the bible gave him 10 times more...but the "almighty" god did not bother to resurrect his family? if you try to argue that god gave him more, why does it even matter that Job got back 10 times more than what he originally had if it's all materialistic? Out of the many events that have happened within the allegory of allegories that is the word of man, does your "father" really seem that loving to you or to anyone?

Madness what those rich celebrity mega church pastors do! I mean Kenneth Copeland who drinks his own blood, blasphemes many times, lies to the congregation by saying that God heals and blesses them if they donate thousands of dollars to a men already having 760 Mio while those people have nothing, and that's what all those rich celebrity mega church pastors do that preach a prosperity gospel!! Or they say that were equal with God, or another mega church pastor said while talking about his wife, that she can still "twerk for the lord" that's what he said, or Kenneth Copeland saying "who was the worst men to ever exist? Was it Satan, no it was God!" Or he lies about speaking in Tongues, as he just mumbles non sense, and there are various other ones doing such things, Joel Osteen, Joyce Meyer, TD Jakes (btw he was the one that said this about his wife), Benny Hinn (he said some of the worst lies to his congregation to get money, so that even families with sick children gave their last money because Hinn promised them healing from God if they donate all their money, thousands of dollars, Jesse Duplantis (he even got exposed by his own wife (not on purpos) for lying about the scriptures, and they we're live on TV, he looked so mad at her, as if his short before hurting her, I don't know anymore which scriptur, you can find the video online, but it was something like him saying that the scriptures say "don't be fraid if a Godly one gets his Money on Ungodly ways" or something like that, and his wife unknowingly corrected him saying that it says "don't be afraid if an Ungodly one gets his Money on Ungodly ways" he basically tried to justify himself in biblical way, and The Holy Spirit spoke through his Wife and saying what the scriptures truly say!

Don't trust him, I mean they even say that the bible says that 10% of your income belongs to God, therefore you have to donate it to them as your pastors, but the Scriptures mean 10% of your income to the poor, that's what God want, not to the Millionaire Pastors that already have hundreds of Millions of Dollars, like Kenneth Copeland having 760 Mio and all those other Mega Rich Pastors also have over 100 Mio dollars, so God would rather have that share to be given to the homeless or to the poor rather then to prideful and lying rich mega church pastors that use God's Name for Personal Gain, their Wolves in Sheep's Clothing, their what the bible meant with that, false preacher, stay wise, stay with the holy spirit, and don't trust any Mega Rich Mega Church Pastors, that preach a Prosperity Gospel, and don't even share money with the poor, they don't even believe in God, they just want your money, and use God's Name to accomplish that, stay wise and stay alert you will find your Church Community with trusting in the holy spirit, I myself found the Holy Orthodox church trough that, the pre-denominational church, the Church that exists since the beginning, and still follows the same Christianity as back then, the Church with Apostolic successio, what means that there is a complete lineage of Pastors from the Apostles on ordained till to this day our Pastors., A straight lineage, still does the same biblical worship, the same tradition and the same Christianity as back then, the Church that is completely biblical and uses biblical worship, and worship the same way as the Apostles did, orthodoxy which means true faith, as it is the Church, Christ founded for all of u, it's such a hidden gem nowaday, but it's definitely worth it, and the Holy Spirit and God brought me to the holy Orthodox church, as I grew up Croatian catholic with a great catholic history, my whole fam always was catholic, we even have a catholic saint that lived in our family, it was the cousin of my grandmother's mother, basically the cousin of my great grandmother, so I didn't came to faith trough my family, as I even became atheist once I was old enough to think, but when I had a supernatural encounter with Yeshua (Jesus Real Name) I started to follow him, but I was an Non-denominational Christian that followed Sola-Scriptura, till I found Holy Orthodoxy, I always heard something telling me Orthodox, which I believe to be the Holy Spirit, I saw more and more about orthodoxy and Orthodox churches, and then once entered the holy Orthodox church, I never wanted to leave ever again, I felt the complete peace, the tradition, even the aesthetics, just everything, I felt God more then ever, and since them I an Orthodox Christian, within an Orthodox church, and I can only recommend it to you, check it out, you will surely love it aswell!

Doing so we violating the law, which is sin, and because of sin there is a punishment…If a serial killer like Ted Bundy tells a judge of all the good things he’s done for society do you think the judge would let the serial killer off free? The same is with us; we’ve committed such crimes against God that we are separated from God forever; we are punished by suffering Hell for eternity, a place with no hope for us. But God loves us so much and with all his heart that he gave his only Son, Jesus Christ, to this cursed world to be crucified on the cross. (John 3:16-17) Now anyone who accepts Jesus Christ, God’s Son, as their Lord and Savior and believes he rose from the dead the third day will be saved from eternal damnation in Hell and live in Heaven in paradise with him forever. Many will choose to follow Satan, whether it be because they think they won’t succeed otherwise or won’t have any joy or friendships, but he will soon reveal himself as a murderer and a liar as he was since the beginning and he will curse all his followers as he cursed God and all of Satan’s followers will be cased into ever burning Hell. Don’t believe this lie I too believed in! Our God is a loving God full of compassion, yet he is a righteous God with righteous judgment. (Matthew 13:41-42)
Something that saddens me is when people feel like they need to say that “church is supposed to be a place for worship” or “we’ve lost touch of what church is really about”, there are “plays in the same building” which means this building is not only a church but some type of theater. The pastor was not trying to make the service all about him or do whatever mega churches are doing, he was simply trying to create a memorable experience for the attendees. Not everything someone does that’s different from what others do is done for malicious purposes, this was just a pastor who had an idea and wanted to make others laugh. This was not an every week occurrence but a one time joke for the church. For all the comments saying “I can’t believe churches” and “This is a mockery of our Heavenly Father” this is not a mockery of our Heavenly Father, but just a pastor wanting to make others smile. I know if this happened at my church I would probably remember the talk better!
@@KJfytbwhat he means is reverence, respect. That’s what the bible meant by the fear of God, reverence and respect for God not to literally be afraid of Him. God doesn’t operate by fear or with fear
Be aware of this kind of church and pastors.. they are praising themselves and showing off about themselves instead of God.. They don't preach the right word of God..
That’s what I was thinking. I know that God has a sense of humor, and I know that Hell is real. We need balance in everything. I have had loads of laughs in church with my Christian friends.
good you probably aren't a real good addition to a church, any church. you know nothing about the church or the man. I don't either but if you believe in the Bible it warms about attacking servants of the Lord.
2 Timothy 4:3 New international version 3 Because the time will come when people will not tolerate sound doctrine. (a) Rather, to suit their own desires, they will gather around themselves a multitude of teachers to say what their keen ears want to hear. (B)
Nevermind the naysayers. The showmanship and comedy hour disrespect is not perceived by everyone. Only the Righteous give Glory to God in the way that is pleasing to the Creator. Be blessed always
I have been to many of these churches on Sundays , where the Padtors are competing to see who has the most eye- catching, attention-getting-gimmick. Even in the music there is emphasis on attention getting gimmicks.
@@sarahbasto6520 it’s better just to give 10% to the poor and needy among us :) but some churches actually do good with the money they get. I had a pastor who was absent a lot and substitute pastors preached; the reason was because he constantly went to India once he saved up enough money and helped build fresh water wells around the poor. I’d give him 20% if I could afford ya know :/ 😇
@@MercenarySed well he’s not made of money and they need help. Is operating tax but actually building wells for impoverished people bad? Would you rather no one did anything to help anyone? Like why you gotta find a way to be negative that’s booty
Why should anyone care what the Bible says? It is a book of unknown authorship, and theres over 230 different versions of it in english alone. Not to mention the ridiculous errors starting on the very first page! It's 2023, you have access to the entirety of humanities knowledge in your pocket, and you are believing bronze age superstitions...
@@Yuki-qs5mt there is a huge line of division in that verse, it stipulates a serious condition; you must believe ON HIM, not just in HIM, and for those that don't, they get the Divine Justice of physical AND Spiritual death. John 3:16 is seen as a feel good verse by most believers, but the reality is, it's more of a warning.
@jamesproudlock1645 can you elaborate more on this comment? Why do you bring up that verse from Matthew 7 in relation to this video? (Genuinely curious)😅
It’s nothing with what he did their are things in the Bible I laugh at if Jesus can find humor in us why can’t you find humor in humor in yourself if you are not hurting anyone( overlook the silly mistakes)
@@nealamesbury7953 Maybe more people would go to your "church" if you would stop killing joy with your judgemental self righteousness. Fun aint a sin, get over it.
Don’t judge the church if you’ve never been there. You don’t know what the entire sermon looked like after that. You don’t know the pastor nor anything else about that church. Just a 5 second clip
