The Church of Jezebel Quotes

“The word-faith and seed-faith doctrines are taught as ‘spiritual keys’ but they really serve to exalt man and eliminate God’s sovereignty. These ‘keys’ are used to extract, and some may argue, attempt to extort, blessings from God. They teach that a person who claims a Scripture verse with seed-faith can hold God hostage to His Word and therefore God must give them prosperity, power and miracles. It’s a demonic doctrine when man attempts to coerce or compel God to do anything. It’s shameful and repugnant! Christians need to understand that God is God and they are not.”

“People buy into it because they do not know their Bible and accept anyone who claims to be anointed by God. If they get ‘goose bumps’ or it ‘tickles their ears’ then all the better. This church, and others like it, is built on the trilogy of prosperity, power and miracles. The core of the church’s trilogy is man-directed and not God-directed.”
