16) For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

17) For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

18) ?He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

19) And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

20) For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed.

21) But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.?

14) What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him?

15) If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food,

16) and one of you says to them, ?Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,? but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit?

17) Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.

18) But someone will say, ?You have faith, and I have works.? Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works.

19) You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe?and tremble!

20) But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?

21) Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar?

22) Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect?

23) And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, ?Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.?And he was called the friend of God.

24) You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only.

25) Likewise, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way?

26) For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

(Dallas, TX) August 27th 2007 The Reuben Armstrong Show was dumped by Streaming Faith at the beginning of August 2007 because of a controversial book, Snakes in the Pulpit. The book exposes the alleged lies and deception of four megapastors, Bishop Eddie Long, TD Jakes, Joel Osteen and Creflo Dollar. Armstrong and his Attorney will be filing a multi million dollar law suit against Streaming Faith and its parent company Multicast Media Technologies.

According to a press conference that was held Armstrong said “Streaming Faith had no reasons to dump my show because of a book that exposes these so- called men of God. The contract clearly states that either party must give a 90 day written cancellation notice, and Streaming Faith failed to abide by their own contact.” Armstrong also went on to mention that he felt as though he was discriminated against because of his race.

Armstrong who is the author of Snakes in the Pulpit said “the book was due to be released August 29th 2007, but due to the concerns I am having with Streaming Faith, I have decided to postpone the release date to September 18th 2007. This decision is not one that I entered into lightly; I am deeply upset and disappointed by it.”

Armstrong said “these four pastors Bishop TD Jakes, Joel Osteen, Eddie Long and Creflo Dollar are twisting scriptures and taking them out of context for fame and fortune and they will be exposed.”

When asking Armstrong about Juanita Bynum he responded and said “I pray that the pimptress, Mrs. Bynum-Weeks, is doing well, but I have to admit that this comes as no surprise to me. When you are playing with God’s people, you need to understand that you are walking a thin line.”

Armstrong book which was schedule to be release August 29th has been rescheduled to September 18th 2007. All Books can be pre-ordered on www.snakesinthepulpit.com

43 ?You have heard that it was said, ?You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.?

44 But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you,

45 that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.

46 For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same?

47 And if you greet your brethren only, what do you do more than others? Do not even the tax collectors do so?

48 Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.

13) Now the Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

14) And He found in the temple those who sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers doing business.

15) When He had made a whip of cords, He drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen, and poured out the changers? money and overturned the tables.

16) And He said to those who sold doves, ?Take these things away! Do not make My Father?s house a house of merchandise!?

17) Then His disciples remembered that it was written, ?Zeal for Your house has eaten Me up.?

18) So the Jews answered and said to Him, ?What sign do You show to us, since You do these things??

19) Jesus answered and said to them, ?Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.?

20) Then the Jews said, ?It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and will You raise it up in three days??

21) But He was speaking of the temple of His body.

22) Therefore, when He had risen from the dead, His disciples remembered that He had said this to them; and they believed the Scripture and the word which Jesus had said.

17 For we are not, as so many, peddling the word of God; but as of sincerity, but as from God, we speak in the sight of God in Christ.

25) ?Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?

26) Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?

27) Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?

28) ?So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin;

29) and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

30) Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?

31) ?Therefore do not worry, saying, ?What shall we eat?? or ?What shall we drink?? or ?What shall we wear??

32) For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.

33) But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

34) Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.

And He who is coming will come and will not tarry.

But if anyone draws back,
My soul has no pleasure in him.?
