Has Glen Staples Really Been Preaching on Holiness or is it merely ' A FORM OF GODLINESS as a Means to Gain?" 1 Tim. 6

...Continued:

YOU SAID: “MAYBE YOU LEFT TOO SOON, BECAUSE HE HAS BEEN PREACHING ON HOLINESS FOR A MINUTE NOW.”

You are incorrect and deceived. TOP members have been uploading entire sermons by Glen Staples to the internet, and he is preaching less and less sound doctrine, and more and more error. For example, in a sermon entitled “authority and submission” Glen Staples twisted Scriptures regarding Moses, Miriam, and Aaron, and took them WAY out of context. He misused God’s Holy Word to manipulate and control the congregation, so that they would not listen to the concerns of Christians outside of TOP. The tactic that Glen Staples used is very common among wolves in sheep’s clothing. It is called “suppression of criticism” or “controlling the flow of information.” If I may briefly explain what this tactic is and why wolves in sheep’s clothing use it…

Wolves in sheep’s clothing seem very nice, and they have charming, electric, charismatic personalities. They are often good speakers and they are very intelligent. Wolves are strategic. Nothing that they do in front of their followers is on accident. Their body language, words, and even tone of voice are carefully calculated to obtain the desired affect or influence on their followers. This is manipulation and witchcraft.

Wolves in sheep’s clothing have a form of godliness, but they deny the power. Their form of godliness is their SHEEP’S CLOTHING. Remember…in the Bible, God symbolizes His holy saints as SHEEP. So wolves disguise themselves in sheep’s clothing to look holy and meek…but it is only a FORM. In Matthew 7:15-20, Jesus said that wolves in sheep’s clothing are RAVENOUS on the inside. Ravenous means “greedy, extremely hungry, starved, devouring, fierce, savage, and having a violent appetite.” This is their true nature, and we can discern this true nature if we look closely at their FRUIT (teachings, traditions, lifestyle, and behavior).

One of the characteristics of wolves in sheep’s clothing is that they LOVE money. They gain enormous financial wealth by attracting crowds to THEMSELVES (not Jesus) but THEMSELVES (their churches/ministries). Wolves start off teaching a lot of truth…this attracts true Christians to them and unsaved ppl who want to be born again. The followers give the wolf money (tithes, offerings, love gifts, etc). Then once the wolf has a large following and he feels more confident, comfortable, authoritative, and financially powerful…he “lets his hair down” (so to speak) and begins to teach less truth with more lies mixed in. Now that he has deceived ppl in the church, he begins to team up with false teachers and celebrities in the world to gain wealth from ppl in the world…he wants a secular audience…the church was just his training ground.

The true nature of a wolf is evil. Their fruit is BAD/Satanic, and they work VERY hard to keep ppl from seeing their true nature, exposing them, and questioning them. So wolves create a defense system by surrounding themselves with 2 types of ppl: 1) Insecure-gullible people who will believe the wolf’s lies and do anything to please the wolf and gain his approval. 2) People who are JUST AS WICKED as the wolf, and therefore will not rebuke or expose him, because they are just as evil. Wolves in sheep’s clothing keep these 2 types of ppl around them as “armor-bearers, ministry assistants, secretaries, spiritual sons, and spiritual daughters.” Wolves claim that they are “accountable” to their “spiritual covering” or “spiritual father”…but in reality, their spiritual covering or spiritual father is just another WOLF. Wolves run in packs. They stick together and cover up behind one another’s dirt…they are not accountable to one another, and they do not rebuke one another. They do conferences together and make money off of one another’s followers.

Now let’s get into the tactic called “suppression of criticism.” Remember…the true nature of a wolf in sheep’s clothing is RAVENOUS. They do not want anyone to discern/notice this, talk about it, expose it, or question what they say and do. The wolf does not want to be discerned/noticed, exposed, or questioned…because he will lose followers…and if he loses followers, he will lose MONEY, and wolves LOVE money. So…in order to suppress or SILENCE his followers from critiquing or biblically criticizing his teachings, traditions, lifestyle, and behavior…wolves get in the pulpit and preach sermons that DISCOURAGE or FORBID their followers from using discernment, questioning them, judging their FRUIT, rebuking them, or exposing sin. Wolves do this by taking Scriptures out of context, twisting Scriptures, adding to God’s Word, and taking away from God’s Word…in order to create sermons that threaten, belittle, manipulate, intimidate, guilt, and pump unholy fear of MAN into their followers. They get in the pulpit and say things like “Touch not God’s anointed and do My prophets no harm!” (but they are actually taking this Scripture WAY out of context). Wolves say “God gave Miriam leprosy for speaking against Moses & He’ll curse you if you put your mouth on the man of God!” They arrogantly put themselves on MOSES’ level (even though they are WOLVES, on Satan’s level), then they say that anyone who questions them, or speaks against their SINS will be cursed by God (that is just FALSE. God does not curse saints for speaking against WOLVES! Hello??). But since many ppl who follow wolves do not study their Bibles in depth and rightly divide it, they do not discern/notice that the wolf is twisting Bible stories and misusing Scripture to control them and SUPPRESS biblical criticism. Glen Staples used the “suppression of criticism” tactic in a sermon called “authority and submission.”

This is why wolves can say and do WHATEVER they want and no one will say anything…because they SUPPRESS biblical criticism of their FRUIT. This is a form of witchcraft—manipulating human beings, to silence them from holding leadership accountable to the Word of God.

“Controlling the flow of information” is another tactic of wolves (I have seen Glen Staples do this as well). As a Christian, I have freedom in Christ to listen to or read the INFORMATION of other Christians around the world, regarding false prophets. If a Christian brother in Japan sends me information about a false prophet, I have freedom in Christ to listen to or read this information and see who this false prophet is, what they are teaching, and how they are living. By listening to or reading this information for myself, I have the ability to draw MY OWN conclusions and make my own judgment whether this person is a false prophet or not….because no one is CONTROLLING my flow of information. People who follow wolves do not have the freedom to listen to or read information about false prophets. The wolf has taken that freedom away from them...he is controlling their flow of information about false prophets. Why? Because if the wolf’s followers read information about false prophets, they might learn the truth about their wolf/leader, and then they might leave the wolf, and the wolf will lose money if he loses followers…and we know that wolves don’t want to lose money! The wolf does not PHYSICALLY control his follower’s access to information by policing them when they read emails, watch videos, or listen to radio programs. The wolf controls his follower’s access to information by performing WITCHCRAFT--demonic manipulation over their mind/soul. The wolf gets in the pulpit and says “if anyone sends you an email speaking against me, don’t read it! If anyone sends you an article about me, tear the article up! People who speak against me are JEZEBEL SPIRITS! They’re touching God’s anointed! Don’t listen to them!” Thru sermons like this, the wolf portrays concerned Christians as “jezebels” and “Pharisees”…and he demonically manipulates his followers not to read information that exposes him and other false prophets. This is how he “controls the flow of information” to his followers. He doesn’t control his follower’s access to information thru PHYSICAL force…he controls his follower’s access to information thru DEMONIC force (witchcraft). The irony is that wolves tell their followers that anyone who questions them or exposes their sins is a “witch”…when in reality, the wolf is a witch.
