"For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ." ~ JUDE, verse 4
The demonic "ecumenical" movement has been creeping into the church by way of celebrity preachers and ungodly gospel music artist as well as corrupt Christian television programming. Almost anything goes and everybody is to be accepted now no matter what they believe just like in Hollywood, except for what is right in the sight of God. When a ministry receives strange doctrines, ungodly celebrities, celebrity preachers, and talented "new additions" (new members who are reputedly in ministry) without checking their backgrounds or their practices against God's word it runs the risk of bringing in error and wolves in sheep's clothing to devour the flock of God. Big name preachers promoted by these corrupt networks and who run in these elitist packs, new eccentric choir directors, effeminate praise leaders, along with other prideful and ambitious ministers are too easily accepted and plugged into our churches because "they're so anointed", as we say, or will increase the profile and prestige of the ministry. Some truly are gifted and others are just "faking and shaking". Its not always the anointing but many times God given and developed talent. The anointing of God destroys yokes; while talent is a gift that alone only entertains. ISAIAH 10:27 says, "And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing." Watch their life and see how it affects others; then you'll see if it's truly the anointing. Are they looking for fans and a following or do they truly care about the work and not the spotlight or the credit? God gives gifts to everyone and talents can be developed to appear like the anointing, but when God's hand is on someone the affects will be felt way beyond a temporary feeling of euphoria. Don't confuse God's anointing with God given talents and man's appointing. This is how perverts take over the choir, and whore mongers run rampant in the pulpit and throughout the church, because we're blinded by talent and the leadership wont deal with sin; starting with themselves.
