Street Preacher Openly Rebuked [video]

STREET PREACHER REBUKED

To a supposed street preacher who sought to rebuke a man who is a faithful witness and servant of Christ, the following rebuke went forth. This angry, misguided street preacher (Gabe) sought to correct a brother in Christ (Glenn) for preaching the the Word, claiming “you can’t shove the WORD down their throat. You have to explain it to them!”

Here are his exact words of Gabe (errant, apostate street preacher) to another street preacher (Glenn, who is a faithful servant of Christ):

“Although vegetables are good for you, do you cram carrots and broccoli down a person’s throat? Certainly not. Babies need them pureed and need spoon feeding. Some people say they know God but are possibly babies in the faith. Don’t shove them with scriptures but break things down for them.” Gabe

RESPONSE:

Jesus tells us that we are all know by our fruits (Matthew 7:16, 20). He also stated that “out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.” (Matthew 12:34) Basically you are saying with your father Satan, “How dare you preach the Word of God to those people!” Yet you vainly attempted to cloak this deceit behind the thin veneer of being God’s wisdom. Wow.

“Get thee behind me Satan” as Jesus told Peter seems to fit here (Matthew 16).

HOW are those people going to be saved unless they hear the WORD of God as Glenn is preaching it to them? They aren’t. “How shall they hear without a preacher?” (Romans 10:14) God says the preaching of His Word is for what? – to “reprove, REBUKE, and exhort with all longsuffering and DOCTRINE.” (2 Timothy 4:2b)

Nonsense. The Holy Ghost and the WORD are our Teachers, not mere men (John 14:26; 16:13-14; 1 John 2:20, 27; Psalms 119:105, 130; 2 Timothy 3:16-16, etc.).

You used not one Scripture and what you stated is false. It was all human reasoning a misapplied truth, false. What’s driving you? This is not of God. ALL resistance to the preaching of God’s Word is straight from Satan. You showed which side you are on by siding with a man who is in sin and under the power of the prince of the power of the air (Ephesians 2:1-3). Brother Glenn is an example of a faithful servant of Christ, laboring in God’s love to sow the seed of the Word of God. It’s an easy opportunity, place for us to sow and to encourage and to rejoice. Yet instead of rejoicing that the Word of God is being sown into the hearts of many, you found reason to unjustly, erroneously seek to correct one of the very “few” laborers that Jesus has sent and is using (Matthew 9:35-38).This argument you make seems common among those who are hurting inside themselves.

Your own banner on your youtube channel states: “The harvest is plentiful but the labourers are few.” (Matthew 9:37) And also “THE SEED is the Word of God.” (Luke 8:11) Yet you find reason, not to encourage a preacher of the Word but rather to find fault. Wow.

Here you are, just like the hell bound pharisees who got mad when Jesus did something good for folk, when He healed people. Then the self-righteous religious devils were enraged which revealed exactly who they served – their father the devil.

When Christ had healed a man with the withered hand, the reaction told us exactly who those false professor false prophets were, didn’t it?

“And he saith unto them, Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath days, or to do evil? to save life, or to kill? But they held their peace. 5 And when he had looked round about on them with anger, being grieved for the hardness of their hearts, he saith unto the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched it out: and his hand was restored whole as the other. 6 And the Pharisees went forth, and straightway took counsel with the Herodians against him, how they might destroy him.” Mark 3

Jesus was much angered. He “looked round about on them with ANGER” as He looks upon you now “with anger” calling you to fresh repentance. Regrettably, these devils Jesus rebuked were unrepentant and plunged deeper into darkness (2 Thess 2:9-12).

God says the feet of those who preach His Good News are “beautiful” and by their preaching of HIS Word, no matter what part of it, faith comes for the hearers to be saved.

“… how shall they hear without a preacher? 15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! 16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report? 17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” Romans 10:14-17

Today God is calling you to repent so He can forgive and refresh you (Acts 3:19). If not you will be sent even stronger delusion.

This type reaction (yours) to the good work of God always has something evil behind it. Pride. Self-righteousness, etc.

Did Jesus follow your principle? did Jesus hold back the meat of the Word when He preached? No. WE still can’t understand things He said and we have been saved for decades, right? Right. Read the sermon on the mount and tell us how much His audience understood of what He said. Re-read the Gospels with this in mind. How much of what Jesus spoke did His audience understand at the time He spoke it. So you are bearing false witness here against the Son of God. All that matters is that Glenn is preaching God’s Word. “Preach the word.” (2 Timothy 4:2) Your ministry will never be powerful till you repent afresh, die doornail dead to self – to all the human reasonings (which has sinful roots).

Here’s but one of many instances of His Christ’s audience not understanding what He was saying at the time He spoke it.

“DO YE NOT YET UNDERSTAND, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?” Matthew 16:9

“DO YE NOT YET UNDERSTAND, that whatsoever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught?” Matthew 15:17

Clearly Jesus Christ, who created and knows all, didn’t preach His Word thinking it would be understood on the surface, on the immediate.

You are declaring that God’s Word DOES come back void – that it will not ultimately accomplish what He sent it forth to accomplish. This is a lie. Isaiah 55:11

Do you under exactly how your vehicle’s engine works? No. Yet you still drive your vehicle, right? Understanding is not the first priority – getting the incorruptible seed of the Word in the hearts of men is the priority and that’s exactly what brother Glenn and his wife are doing by preaching the WORD and passing out the Gospel tracts which are full of the Word.

We cannot save ourselves nor anyone else. GOD alone can bring that “increase.” He does so as we humble ourselves under His holy and mighty hand and faithful sow His Word into the hearts of men.

“I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. 7 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase. 8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour. 9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building.” 1 Corinthians 3:6-9

The proper response would be to go before God and confess this as sin. Then perhaps delete your comment which you did publicly. And apologize to Glenn for what you did here. – “let none of you imagine evil against his brother in your heart.” (Zechariah 7:10)

Here’s the video that this interaction transpired on. This is brother Glenn preaching our LORD’s Word.

Preacher Viciously Attacked for Speaking the Truth! [podcast]

There’s no doubt that every Christian sins and yet, does that mean we have the approval of God to continue in that sin? Does the LORD require that we confess all sin to Him in repentance? IMAGINE people who claim to be following Jesus attacking you for exhorting them USING Scripture to rid their lives of all sin (2 Corinthians 7:1; 2 Timothy 4:2-4; Titus 2:14; 2 Peter 3:10-14; Revelation 19:7-8; Titus 1:16; 1 John 2:4; Ephesians 5:25-27; Ezekiel 18:30; Isaiah 30:9-10, etc.). “Looking unto Jesus”, “striving against sin”, seeking to “Be ye holy” is not works salvation, it’s the […]

4 Preachers I Know who Departed from Christ! [podcast]

  You got saved? Good – STAY saved! And the only way to stay saved – to “abide” – REMAIN in Christ is to stay in His Word and in prayer. The proof is that your life will bear His good fruit (John 15:1-16) If you choose to neglect Christ in daily fellowship, you will grow weak and “fall away.” (Luke 8:13) And, it’s possible you will never be brought back to Him (Hebrews 6:4-6; 10:29-39, etc.). The lady who was most instrumental in leading me to Christ, who invited me to the meeting where I was saved, later departed […]

WHO Else is Tired of Wimpy Preachers?

“And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine: 29 For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.” Matthew 7:28-29 The scribes, the false leaders of Jesus’ day and our day, had/have no power. This was in contrast to the power Jesus walked in to declare His Gospel, the original Gospel! If you aren’t flipping the proverbial apple carts by speaking the truth with holy conviction, you are not a man of truth who is walking in the power of the Holy Spirit and truth of God […]
