Their knee-jerk reaction to this caller is to spend most of the time saying that anyone who disagrees with them is a tool of the devil in league with demons of darkness. An excerpt of that video can be seen here:Īlthough the caller didn’t really know what the main issues with Swaggartism are, Frances Swaggart and her panel members did a good job of indicting themselves as cultists. The caller, who was a new Christian, said that she had Christian friends that were concerned she was getting involved in a cult. What transpired is instructive about the nature of Jimmy Swaggart Ministries. On the Swaggart’s television program, Frances and Friends, a caller mentioned me and this website. “Do not be called leaders for One is your Leader, that is, Christ.” (Matthew 23:10) And the Apostle Paul said: “For when one says, “I am of Paul,” and another, “I am of Apollos,” are you not carnal?” (1 Corinthians 3:4) The New Testament teaches unequivocally that we are not to follow people. And Jimmy says we must follow “the Preacher.” Another sly way for Jimmy to say, “Everyone must follow me.” He claims he has been given a commission by God to restore the true gospel to the Church. Who is the “Preacher” with a capital P? According to what Jimmy has said elsewhere, he himself is the only one that has been given the new revelation about the cross. “People are following denominations…particular churches…with most leading nowhere…we must follow the Preacher who is preaching the Cross, who is living the Cross, and who understands the Cross and holds it up as the Foundation of Christianity and the throughway of blessing.” Jimmy Swaggart says you must follow him or you are not saved. NEW! The author’s latest book, Swaggartism is now released.
