“She lies and says she’s in love with him; can’t find a better man.” Eddie Vedder Was Santa at your church before Christmas? Did your church cancel Sunday services on Christmas? Is your church’s music a lower quality presentation of a K-Love radio playlist (or, even worse, a better one)? Does the youth area in … Read more
There’s no doubt about it. The Year of Censorship wasn’t kind to the Rolex of Polemics Blogs. After a decade of failed boycotts and blacklists by America’s leftwing of evangelicalism, Facebook managed to do what they could not; mute Pulpit & Pen. And so, our publishing group, The Gideon Knox Group, has been savvily maneuvering … Read more
“‘I feel like I haven’t preached the whole Gospel. And I repent. I repent.” said a visibly emotional Todd White to a group of students during his July 26 Encounter sermon, fighting to hold back tears as his voice cracked with conviction. It was a change of tone for the word-of-faith prosperity preacher, who has … Read more
In true charismatic false teacher fashion, Word of Faith Huckster Andrew Wommack announced that he was converting his in-person “Healing is here conference” to a livestream event only after several members of his staff got sick from the coronavirus and unsurprisingly, were not healed by Wommack. The act of canceling healing services due to sickness, … Read more
We told you last week how Bethel Church casts out the demon of racism with their wizard staff and mystical incantations. Well, it appears a new challenger has appeared to battle Bethel for ultimate staff supremacy. Equipped with dual offerings, symbolic of the rods of Moses and Aaron, will this newcomer emerge victorious in this … Read more
The International Association of Healing Ministries cancelled their massive conference that was to take place in Porta, Portugal this year, and instead will be having an online conference instead due to being constrained by the coronavirus. We reached out and asked the logical question of why not just have the event and heal everyone, given … Read more
Charismatic preachers are less accurate in their prophetic predictions than drunken meteorologists. In fact, coronavirus has proven that charismatics are far less accurate than that. Not a single charismatic leader prophesied the costliest health-related panic in history. Multitudes of charismatic leaders prophesied coronavirus would never come to America. Many more prophesied Christians would be immune. … Read more
A previously unknown and unseen form of worship was recently unveiled at a charismatic church for the first time Sunday morning. This startling display of fresh revelation that definitely doesn’t go against the Regulative Principle of Worship occurred when a muscular man in a tank top took the stage during the church service and started … Read more
While most people would not want their car and “fire” to have anything to do together, lest their insurance company sends their deductibles through the roof, Chuck Pierce, universally venerated charismatic prophet and the one that Dr. Michael Brown has thrown down the gauntlet and has made a wolfish-wager over the legitimacy of his coronavirus … Read more
After being featured and winning the “2020 Christian Apologist March Madness Tournament-” A fun little Twitter poll that pitted well-known Christian apologists against each other- and beating the inimitable James White for the crown, Ravi followed up his win by choosing to cavort with a cadre of sketchy spiritual characters on a worshipful live-stream happening … Read more
Well, this sounds like satire, but it’s not. The world’s largest gathering of notable faith healers are canceling the grand opening of a faith-healing center because of coronavirus. We reported on the grand opening of the Morris Cerullo Legacy International Center on Saturday, mostly because it has a design that looks like a dollar sign … Read more
Steven Strang over at Charisma Mag – who has posted more false prophecy relating to coronavirus than Wuhan has sick-beds – claimed today that “prophet” Chuck Pierce prophesied the coming of coronavirus. He’s also making the claim on his podcast. This claim is spurious and untrue. At the snake-oil blog, Charisma, Strang writes… I recently interviewed … Read more
Upon the top of Mt. Carmel in the 9th Century B.C., Elijah stared down the prophets of Ba’al and Ashera. They promised to be able to get their gods to move by decreeing and declaring positive confessions of their power. They beat their chests and screamed into the heavens. They cut themselves and bled to … Read more
Our intention at Pulpit & Pen is to log all the crazy things charismatic prophets have proclaimed about the coronavirus so that, if nothing else, God uses it to put an end to charismaticism. It really is a religion that needs to die a thousand deaths. The only vaccine is polemics. So far we have, … Read more
As we have been chronicling at Pulpit & Pen religiously (no pun intended), charismatic prophets are going to get people killed with their crack-pottery. It’s one thing to decree-and-declare an end to coronavirus with ineffectual blathering, but it’s another thing to offer horrible medical advice and instill confusion into the global discourse on this pandemic. … Read more
