Exactly ! ... We are definitely living the times of Elijah with this False Apostate Worship ... Ahab-Jezebel & ALL the Corrupt Teachings with it's Diversionary Deceptions . (John 14:26) ALWAYS PRAY for the MASTER-TEACHER THE HOLY GHOST ... He will lead , teach , guide & reveal ALL TRUTH ! ... Our CREATOR'S WORD speaks its 'own' TRUTH ...there is no need for 6th-day man to 'add-to' or take away from 'HIS' WORD , PERIOD ! ... 'UNLESS' , they have an Ulterior Motive or man's 'own' AGENDA 🤷♂️ ??? ! ...
It is not surprising that he doesn't want people studying the Word. If people are ignorant, he can tell them all manner of lies, and they will be none the wiser.
If people don't read for themselves he can also continue to pretend he understands scripture even though he just makes it up as he goes along. I guess he feels insecure now because people actually read the bible with comprehension 😂
The fact that you can find something new in the Bible every single time you read it is reason enough to continue studying it. We can't even understand GOD fully by all he's provided in scripture so you need to study until death! You can read a verse at 20 & learn something, again at 50 & discover even further and even at 80 & be baffled by what is revealed so much time after. Growth never stops and you'll always be a student.... There is always room.
preach, Psalms 119:11.. I have hidden Your word in my heart that I might not sin against You. Praise be to You LORD; teach me Your decrees. Praying and studying the Bible brings you into the presence of the LORD. The more time you spend praying and studying the Bible the more your character becomes like Gods character
I agree 💯. However, for some, it will never be a literacy issue more than it's a 'they're just spiritually dead' issue. 1 Corinthians 2:14-15 "But a natural man does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned. 15 The person with the Spirit makes judgments about all things, but such a person is not subject to merely human judgments,"
The problem with a relationship with God outside of Bible study is the devil can talk to you too. The devil is crafty and masquerades as an angel of light. The only way to discern between the devil and the Holy Spirit is to stay in the word.
@@KCRookieit’s implied when you say the study of God and theology is sophomoric and asinine like this preacher states. He was right in saying you can study the word and not really know God, but the only way to truly know God is through application of the studied text. If you just trust that “inner voice” and consider Bible study asinine then you can easily be deceived and drawn away by your own lusts.
He skipped the part where Eve too had heard a voice in the garden. Hearing a voice in of itself isn't sufficient. That voice has to absolutely match the Holy Word of God with no alterations and such in order to be trustworthy. John Grey is being absurd with his teaching. If we don't read the Word of God, then we wouldn't have the discernment to know when we are being spoken to by the Most High or when it's our own voice, or worse, the voice of the enemy.
@@TriciaPerry-ef7biSatan wants everyone to die without Jesus, not just you. You need to find a church and a group of people to walk with you in your faith.
I used to listen to him like 7 years ago when I was going through a terrible storm. I thought he was amazing but as I grew in my relationship with God and reading my Bible, the less I wanted to listen to this pastor. I couldn’t understand why because there wasn’t one specific thing but just a gentle check in my spirit to stop. Then all this stuff came out about his marriage, emotional affairs, court battles with the former pastor, and he and his wife’s IG looks like Hollywood photo shoots. Something is definitely off. Thank you for this video.
Same!! That gentle tug of the Holy Spirit that saves so many 🙌🏽🙏🏽. Praise the LORD! I also noticed his wife has (and it's probably old) a very large tattoo of an Egyptian Ankh on her chest. 😮💨😑 Blasphemy at its finest!
Just by listening to this video makes me want to study even more. John Gray is scary and hopefully individuals in his congregation will come to their senses because there is no way they are reading let alone studying the Word of God.
My mom says that phrase as well “just because you read the scriptures don’t mean you know God” and for me that just encourages me to keep reading, studying, and meditating on His Word! Please pray my strength in the Lord. Amen ✝️❤️
Sound doctrine is becoming less and less in churches. Now it seems everyone (almost) receives a revelation that God shared with them only and they spread their interpretations to the body. The revelation I get is to keep silent and become as proficient as I can in the scriptures and pray to have a better relationship with God. I also get convicted to share the gospel from time to time. Thanks Corey, keep it going.
I deal with knuckleheads all the time saying " you dont need the bible to have a relationship with God" but then they turn around and try to quote scripture to condone what they are doing. If they discredit the bible then they avoid accountability while claiming to know God😂
To me he preaches another gospel, he came from Joel olsteen church, that should say everything. Plus, more than 1 count of admitted adultery, and never took a significant break from ministry. For me, mark and avoid such false teachers . Thank you for this teaching !
When pastors try to be so deep but being spiritually ignorant 🙄 and leading those who do not study the word for themselves down an ignorant path🤦🏼♀️. When pastors Google words to use in their sermon 🤷🏼♀️
That’s one bad trait of prosperity preachers, ear ticklers, and those who rely on stirring up emotions more than stirring up hunger to walk in obedience to the Lord; they have a very horrible habit of trying to be profound with their incessant attempts to come across a “new revelation” instead of preaching what the Word says. As a result they end up twisting the Word and misinterpret it with whatever fleshly intellectual nonsense they think is from God without realizing that the so called new revelation is horrendously clashing with actual Scripture.
Accurately handling my foot. 2 Timothy 2:15 (KJB) Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
It's their vain imaginations from the deceiver, which encourages them to become puffed up and full of self righteous pride. All Glory to Almighty God in Christ Jesus' name through the Power of His Holy Spirit Amen
This man is against the study of sound biblical theology and will eventually make his people detached from studying scripture and depend on unbiblical experiences. Thanks so much Corey for that video.
Glory be to God Father Thank You for your word its the foundation of life, faith, truth, peace, love, knowledge and understanding Holy Spirit restore order in these pulpits of disobedience. Some of these Pastor's want you to worship them... Jesus Christ is LORD all must repent, forgive, pray and surrender unto HIS Will. All must be Baptized Born Again seek salvation, grace, righteousness and truth. Amen ♥️🛐🙌🏽🌎🙌🏽🙏🏾📖🙏🏼❤️
It is so funny that I had a young lady say to me today this is the reason why she doesn't like going to church is because it seems they don't want to teach or want us to know things. I apologized to her that this had been her experience. She is not wrong in her assessment. It is not a new practice. It is done to maintain ignorance and control. I told her it is important to read the Word of God regularly and use different study tools for understanding.
Thank you Brother Corey for exposing this. I always thought he was more of comedic type of pastor( preacher) when he was under Joel Osteen neither one of them use the Bible from what I saw. Again I thank God for you. Keep up the spreading the Gospel 👏🏾🤲🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾❤️
Thank you my brother for being apart of the body of Christ to expose the lies of dudes like this that are sending people to hell, May God continue to bless you and prayers go out to you and your family.
New subscriber here 🙋🏽♀ I appreciate the way you break down scripture coupled with your personality! You have a great sense of humor as well. I chuckled a few times lol After I watched your video, I listened to his sermon, and it was beyond...cringe. It felt like I was listening to an eisegetical rant coupled with babble... At one point, Gray went into Genesis 6 and had people come up afterward to "sow a seed". 🤦🏽♀ No wonder why people started to leave while he was preaching. Unfortunately, this was probably one of the most unbiblical messages I've heard in my life. Keep doing the Lord's work! Your channel is a breath of fresh air.
16:18-16:28 is hilarious to me! Your facial expression and the statement: “No he doesn’t” 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂 priceless. And honestly and respectfully John Grey should have invested in theology considering his background and scandals. Perhaps if he had theology & biblical studies, he would understand how to submit his flesh to the Word and teach and study sound doctrine.
We don’t just study for knowledge and preaching. Give us directions, connection, renewal and cleansing. And theses are benefits I can think of based on 2 scriptures.
"Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." 2 Tim 2:15 -- a clear and direct command in the Bible itself to study it. And adding credence to the notion that people like Gray actually believe they exist on a plane which is at or above the level of God. SMH.
Amen, thanks for calling these false Pastors, teachers etc. out brother Corey, they want you to focus on them not Gods Word Colossians 2:8 Romans 16:17 Galatians 1:6-9 2 Timothy 3:13 goes on and on
AMEN. Very well said and explained, sir!!! I hated to see him pull this caper. Bro. John cooked up a hot mess trying to be profound, and it wasn't necessary. That was really, really wretched!
I was thinking the same thing. How you gonna wear a football jersey to church to preach in front of a congregation?? I'm throwing penalty flags on this...😂
A lot of people who aren't knowledgeable in scripture don't like others who are. I've experienced this on a small level, and it's quite sad to know that people look down on you for wanting to study the word of God. Coming out of a lot of false teachings, I love to sit under godly pastors that can expound on scriptures, line upon line, precept upon precept. No confusion at all, just allowing the scriptures to speak for themselves. I'm done with hearing people having "a word from the Lord." Just open the word up, and let's read the bible and see what the Lord says... Amen!
Love it. Teach the word brother. I remember Brother John Gray from my old NewBirth days with Bis Long, The way you bring the word in the original text is awesome, thank you Sr. for being a man of God who teaches the word of God. By the way what bible software do you use? I teach the word myself and that looks like a very useful tool.
Knowing that Katt has already said this is the year of exposure, he should’ve stayed clear bc his own past tells us that at any moment he could very well be exposed AGAIN for something crazy & sinful!
@@mahoganymuffin2628 1. John Gray is that example. 2. Misinterpretation of the scripture judge not that you be not judged. Lots of people never read passed that first verse to understand what the first verse means. Lots of sinners use this verse to justify when someone is telling them they're doing something wrong in the eyes of The Lord.
@@mahoganymuffin2628 John 5:38-40 NASB95 - “You do not have His word abiding in you, for you do not believe Him whom He sent. “You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; it is these that testify about Me; and you are unwilling to come to Me so that you may have life. I wanted to start my response off with a scripture, we both understand that the Pharisees studied vehemently. There are people who attend seminary and study 8 hours a day which on the surface is good BUT! without the Holy Spirit leading us those scriptures are but mere knowledge sis. Here is another scripture that came in mind to share, "1 Corinthians 13:2 NASB95 - If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing." If a person is reading scriptures and they don't have the love of God in their being they are reading judgement against themselves because on that Day, Jesus will remind them of what they read and how they missed it. In essence when we read the bible for the wrong reason we are building a case against ourselves. Hopefully my response made some sense to you and I hope I communicated thoroughly.
”Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.“ 2 Timothy 2:15-16 KJV
Corey thank you for your faithfulness to God and His word❤i have'nt been to a church building in a long time mostly due to health issues,but want to get back to fellowshipping with true believers..i read the word daily and watch sermons online..i just want to know is it a sin to not fellowship with other believers?i've been really feeling guilty about that..thank you🙏
Hebrews 10:25 New International Version 25 not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another-and all the more as you see the Day approaching. Hebrews 3:13 New International Version 13 But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called “Today,” so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness. Yes its very important you congregate.let the Holy Spirit guide you and find a sound doctrine church where the word of God is spoken and not adulterated where they tell you where your sins will send you if you don't repent and turn from the sins you are commiting. John 3:3 New International Version 3 Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.”
Corey, although I can't say much good about self called "pastor" Grey, he is absolutely right on two points. The text is talking about the Voice of God walking. This is the same thing as scripture saying the Word was made flesh. How is it that we believe God made His Word flesh but don't believe His Voice can walk? The text is trying to tell us which person of God was in the garden. His second correct point is that some people think that their seminary degree can teach them scripture better than the Spirit of God. This is ridiculous. We should study of course, but knowing about God is not the same as knowing Him. Be blessed.
@pamd1342 Christ is God's voice as well as God's word. He is the messenger of God as well as the creative power of God. Scripture says everything was made by Him. If you look at Genisis, we see everything being created when God spoke and released His Word. Christ is literally God's living voice. That's how the word can walk and that's who was in the garden. God's voice took on flesh.
Scripture says to worship God in SPIRIT and TRUTH. SpIrit could be considered internal inspiration, feeling or perception. Truth is gathered by study, learning and accuracy. If we get stuck on one ore the other we can become imbalance. We need BOTH. Truth without spirit can leave us legalistic and judgemental. Spirit without truth can leave us wreckless and I’ll informed.
I LOVE this because both leads to RELATIONSHIP. If one gets stuck ONLY on theology and Bible study they can never comprehend Christ as the Living Word, Light & Revelation henceforth which is Spirit. So when you get one that is only “spiritual” without theology you spiritism. People in spiritism do not line up what they feel, hear, experience or discern with the Word so they lean to their own understanding. People who have ONLY theology or Bible study but lack spirit… they condemn those who don’t have theology and henceforth we get legalism, self righteous and puffed up with knowledge. So neither are correct because they do not have the fullness. But when we get the fullness we get Spirit and Truth which leads us into relationship with Christ and into the Kingdom of Heaven. From that space we can enter into fellowship with God and the Kingdom of God where power, authority and citizenship presides.
Love listening to the TRUTH through your videos! So appreciate your Berean-like reviews of these 'asinine" (looney, zany, inept, out to lunch, harebrained, nutty, screwball, kooky and then some) pastors and their heretical sermons! BTW, what study software do you use/show when referencing Hebrew words and such?! Blessings!
Less than 20 seconds and my heart was grieved. 😢 Because our Father is so long suffering, these IMpastors continue to impart this heresy to unsuspecting, Biblically illiterate pew warmers.
Corey, I am enjoying your RU-vid channel. Could you tell me what books you read to gain a more in-depth understanding of the holy scripture? I noticed you had a copy of “Interpreting The New Testament Text” in this video. Thanks!
Okay, I almost fell out when he said, "stupid Pastors!" But it's sad and yet so true that they would much rather hype you up on emotionalism than to just simply preach God's word and let the Holy Spirit do the work! And it reminds me of Jamal Bryant's message about "Jesus being 85% wrong, his entire life." In the beginning he hyped them up. Gotta 'em real happy. And then he came with the foolishness and nobody said a word. It was quiet. And poor Marvin Sapp, he just sat there with his black cloth, wiping his mouth. Man, just STOP! Stop lying to folk! Stop using the church to line your pockets! Stop leading the sheep astray! Stop manipulating! Stop, please! Please Stop! People are out here dying spiritually and literally and yet some pastors refuse to throw out The Life Preserver, Jesus Christ, The Way, The Truth, and The Life! SOS...Save Our Souls!!
They want to keep spinning scripture to fit their own desires , they don’t want to know what the scripture says because the scriptures condemn what they are doing
2 Timothy 2:15 says: Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth”. Sooooooo I don’t know what he’s talking about and neither does he!! These unlearned pastors are leading people straight to hell!!! Moreover, that’s why they hid because they heard God’s sound/voice … cause and effect!!!!
Thank you sir for your calling out false teachers! I'm thankful that I study God's word so that I understand for myself. We must study so that we aren't taken in by foolish men like John Gray..who is wanna be comedian!
When you said, “stupid” that was being quite nice. Im thinking more on the lines of Fred Sanford calling Lamont, a big dummy! Im just taken a back by him saying the study of God is asinine or sophomoric, WOW! But are we surprised, a lot of pastors are not called, leading people astray, lovers of self, full of pride and bringing the scriptures to life by being wolves in sheep clothing! Study to show yourself approved and I pray that these people pray for discernment and Godly wisdom to walk away from these ravenous souls!
Shalom man of God and many blessings to you and to your beautiful wife and families (personal/ministries). I understand where you are coming from Mr. Minor and I also understand where Mr. Gray is coming from. In Genesis 3:8 it says, 8 "And they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God amongst the trees of the garden." This event shows us that Adam and Eve were no longer in the same realm with The LORD God. They were in the garden yes, but they were no longer residing in the actual realm they were created to express life from, which is the realm where The LORD God resides, the eternal realm. Adam and Eve were in a state that was absent of carrying life.. They were in the realm that hosts darkness, which is the realm where the enemy satan resides. When they heard the voice of The LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, they both heard power moving, and it was moving with great weight and with a massive presence. This power was coming from the breath of God. It was His breath moving in the garden. As it was moving in the garden it was producing life as it moved. When Adam and Eve heard The LORD God's breath moving in the garden, they also knew a great shift had taken place. They realized they were no longer in the same realm with their Creator. They were afraid because they were in a realm that was absent of eternal life. The life they identified with carried darkness, which is a life that hosts shame, fear, guilt, and disgrace. And when The Most High's light and presence exposes the true condition of this particular existence, it can cause conviction and fear to manifest. Fear comes upon a person because that particular life contradicts The Most High's image. His presence carries the spirit of righteous judgement. The LORD knew they were no longer in the same realm with Him, because they were no longer connected to Him Spirit to spirit. It was His breath that was generating life in them while they were connected to Him. He felt the separation. This is why He came into the garden around that time. He felt the disconnect, the shift that was caused between them. And one more thing man of God. The Most High God desires for all of us (His sons and daughters) to be exposed to His mysteries and to His revelations. This is not about certain believers possessing higher realms of revelation than others. The Most High God longs to share greater and more intimate revelation with His people. There is so much to encounter with Him, especially when it comes to His Word. He shares His heart on that level with those who hunger for that kind of relationship and are building that kind of relationship with Him. There is no respect of persons when it comes to His sons and daughters. He loves it when we want to know more about Him, especially through the scriptures. So I get what you both were expressing. And when Mr. Gray mentioned the believer's ability to possess "oil", he was speaking about the power that The Holy Spirit gives us when exercising this walk in The Most High God. Even when studying the scriptures, we have to be led by The Holy Spirit and the power that He carries. Because He unfolds the scriptures to us. We cannot enter into the realm that The Bible came from without "oil." It is Holy Spirit that brings the scriptures alive. And He anoints us in this area. The Holy Spirit releases a real anointing upon born again believers. And it is that anointing that helps us to know The Most High God, especially through the scriptures. Thank you for allowing me to share this with you. God Bless you and Shalom unto you and to your beautiful wife and families.
First off, I don't need anyone preaching to me from the pulpit in a Jersey smh I need more reverence of the Lord that's just me. I just think all these things are connected, not saying that because of how you're dressed that your teaching will be sound, but it's just a respect thing to me. Then, from there, it gets worse with the bad doctrine!
