Why These Powerful MEGA CHURCH Pastors Fell From Ministry!

Why do we see so many highly influential and powerful men falling from ministry oftentimes leaving thousands of people devastated? Well, I believe it's because there is a common trap that many of them are falling into without even realizing it. Today in this video, I expose this Satanic trap for what it is and explain why many powerful men are falling from ministry.

I was told in seminary by my preaching professor the following: "When you believe you are as good as your congregation says you are, you are in trouble." Excellent video!! Thank you!!

Yes clergy must pray to remain humble and walk in Christ's footsteps. Too many people who have prominent positions, those who have material wealth, and many who are physically appealing allow praises by others to make them arrogant and lose all sense of humility. In many instances, that praise made them begin to exploit others for their personal gain. Power, material wealth, and physical appeal can be a blessing or a curse, depending on how they are used, or abused.

and just a quick reminder that the first amendment conflicts with the first commandment "thou shalt worship whoever you want" and that the declaration of human rights gives ME more rights than god. and a history lesson cos the USA is a secular nation, not many people seem to know that, and the founding fathers were at best deists and certainly not christian. hitchens became a naturalised american purely because of the constitution. the UK is officially christian, the US is officially secular. is it annoying that the satanic temple has the SAME RIGHTS as the church / mosque?

This was very well put together. This is definitely seen over and over as Leaders today seek fame and love the applause of man. Pride consumes them and they get blinded to it. It applies to all too. As I was listening I said Lord please keep me humble and felt led to thank my Supervisor and Director for leading our team humbly.

"His character needed to catch up with his calling." So true! Sometimes, what God has for you isn't yours to take yet because your character needs to be built, and sanctification must occur. When I was single, I used to resent that many people tended to listen to those who were married and had children. Being married and having my own kids, I see how God uses these hard things to sanctify us and build our character. It isn't the only thing, but I see how it can help us minister to others.

Pride is one of those things that no matter the warnings, no matter the effort made to avoid it, no matter how many people see it... it is one of those lessons you have to be brought down in a sorrowful way to recognize that it was or is an issue in yourself.

This is so true! I was wondering lately why pride is the worst of the deadly sins but it really does kill. Some people don't go to the doctors because of pride, they think they can do it theirself. Same thing that pride makes us think we don't have to call on God, we can do it ourselves 😬😬😬!!! I couldn't understand before why i found it so difficult to call on God, I was afraid of being "weak" but it really is the same as not calling on the doctors

HUMILITY! HUMILITY! HUMILITY! Sometimes success is blinding. Pride is blinding. If anyone thinks he stands, let him take heed, lest he fall. "I am rich, I have prospered, I need nothing." Arrogance. Thinking of ourselves more highly than we ought to think rather than with sober judgment. The brothers in my local church have been studying about finishing well the race that has been set before us. Jesus is coming soon.

These men are high ranking free masons. They are working for the enemy, and The Most High is exposing them, because they are extremely evil, money hungry, and have no fear of The Father, therefore they are not convicted and do not feel the need to repent. (T.D. Jakes, Mike Todd, Steven Furtick, Joel Olsteen, Joyce Meyer) just to name a few.

Started reading your book Misled today. I just cried. I was raised in church that was the same. There was child abuse by those who went to church all the time spoken in tongues, got up in church sang hymns. Anyway, I don’t want to say anymore but I just want to thank you for being honest. I’m 61 years old and I tried to forget it all but it’s been coming back since I’ve gotten older and since my dad passed away. I’ve always had a trust issue so it’s been really hard for me to trust Jesus. In my Bible, I underline all the promises. Thank you Jesus.

That’s the problem, people are going into ministry like a career and a job. Didvy’all forget that God calls, chose and ordained his servants. Man have no power to do this and appoint themselves after study in some Bible college. That is not God’s way. God doesn’t ordain anyone to preach and earn a salary. That is Blasphemous. Until we learn that we should never appoint ourselves as pastors, preachers, Bishops, apostles and prophet we will continue to be deceived and Jed astray. Y’all forget satan is on a mass recruit in these last days. Many belong to his church and don’t even realize it.

This video is spot on. It happened to Solomon, David, and other men in the Bible. For a long time I couldn’t figure why King David got involved with Bathsheba and ordered her husband to be killed. And then I realized, he was king. He had POWER. He was in a position to where no one could refuse him. Bathsheba had no choice but to go to him. They started off great but they didn’t end how they started. This is a warning for us.

Over 40 years ago, Dr. Roy Gray, at Bible College, let us know the real reason. Simple & profound - they get too busy to meet with God in prayer in morning Devotion. If one doesn't abide in the vine the branch falls off, men gather the fallen off branch and burns it. The problem is - too busy to spend time with God in prayer.

There have been mega pastors in the 80's and early 90's as well as an international ministry a couple of years ago that fell from grace as a result of money, sex and pride. But what about pastors who are teaching false doctrine (prosperity gospel, LGBT affirming, faith and works) that still remain influential? These men are more dangerous to the body of Christ because people's salvation may be in jeopardy. However, a great video, nonetheless.

Proverbs 27:17 Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall. ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭16‬:‭18‬ ‭ It is so important to humble ourselves before God. Whenever we have something we struggle with, it’s important that we turn to the Lord and ask for his guidance. It’s also important that we have mentors who can help us in our walk with God.
