From Christafari to Christafarianism to Christafarian, what you will find in this heavily documented and footnoted essay is that this carefully created culture turns out to be an Evangelical caricature of Rastafarian culture which puts Evangelical and Rastafarian Christians in a totally unnecessary state of war with each other and amongst themselves.
A MUST READ for Rastafarians, Evangelicals and Christafarians!

CONFRONTING CHRISTAFARI, AUGUST 22 2007
by Messian Dread
WWW, AUG 22/23 2007 - Bodyguards, a man beats a women, another man becomes agressive, the Star Artist makes kung-fu style kicks in the direction of a Dread just before he asks the complete audience on stage to protect him against the fire: welcome to another "great" performance of Christafari.
On august 22, Christafari held a concert in the "Destiny Church" in the Dutch city of Groningen. The Center for Research on Christianity (CRC) went to check out the spirits, and came back with a remarkable story.
Messian Dread reports.
When you're looking for a musical review of Christafari's concert, please don't read beyond the next few paragraphs. There really is not much to say about it, other than that Christafari is getting worse and worse each time I see them.
Besides, my brothers and me were not visiting the concert out of musical interests at all. We knew, that we would have to expect a terrible performance by a terrible band with a terrible sound in a terrible place, and we were not disappointed!
Of course, never go to a Christafari concert when you want to enjoy some good music. After all, it is carefully crafted in the laboratories of the Christian Industrial Complex and designed to serve as the "true Christian" alternative to "the ever enigmatic Messian Dread and Yabby You".
Not, that I want to compare myself musically with Yabby You. Yabby You is a true originator of Reggae Music and Christafari's Mark Mohr should be ashamed of himself that he talks about him and his musical clones as even being close to any "alternative" to Yabby You.
But it's not about the music at all, which is why this is not a musical review at all either.
It's about the spirits behind the music, that's why this is the report of a spiritual confrontation between spirits.
The Spirit behind Yabby You and Messian Dread's music, versus the spirits behind the music of the "true Christian" alternatives Christafari and Solomon Jabby.
The Spirit of the Most High JAH versus the spirits of the priests of Babylon.
The Spirit of the Most High JAH in His Temple, namely the bodies of those who are born of Spirit, versus the spirits of Baal in their temple.
And it would all take place on that one location, the city of Groningen in the Netherlands.
The confrontation was scheduled on august 22, in a "church", which claims to "walk with a mandate to claim dominion in earth" straight on the front page of their website.
Of course, what better place to spiritually confront the "pioneer of Gospel Reggae" than in one of the Temples of the Christian Industrial Complex?
After all, that's where Babylon's trading of souls is done in the name of the Saviour, which is Christafari's specialty!
As we prepared ourselves in the weeks before the spiritual confrontation, it seems like Christafari was especially drawn to visit Groningen, too.
According to a Dutch Message Board, Christafari had turned down several other offers as they felt they were led especially to the "Destiny Church" to show themselves.
The people at the "church" apparently expected trouble: they had hired security personnel. Because we didn't want to show any ID, we paid the ridiculous fee of EURO 12,50 to enter into the "place of worship".
I had already heard outside how the band Christafari was introduced. A Dutch voice read a long legacy of... Mark Mohr!
Inside, the first thing I heard was Mark Mohr saying: "We are not here to promote our new album". I looked to my ticket. It said: "Christafari, 22 aug, To the Foundation - World Tour"...
Then he said: "We are given the Gospel for free, so here we are giving it for free!". I looked to my ticket, that had cost me EURO 12,50. I looked to the merchandize in the hall that had their price tags on it.
Of course, I'm listening to a liar. A blatant liar. I'm used to document the lies as they are spoken by Mark Mohr.
In the meantime, we stood in the audience and observed Mohr as he had to turn on the automatic pilot. He was obviously not receiving any strength from his spirits, and turned to the audience instead for help.
He announced tracks like "Follow the Leader" (really), and desperately tried to get energy from the crowd, a small crowd by the way of about 150 at the most.
One interesting detail was that he told the audience "Flee Temptation!" (an unbiblical statement, as the good book says to resist and fight down temptation, but to flee fornication), and subsequently invited little girls on stage to dance before the crowd.
Flee temptation, huh?
Mark Mohr went on and told the audience that they really had to give their life to Jesus, even if they had already done so. "I've done it for 16 times now", he was recorded as saying from the stage.
He literally spoke out the first name of one of the brothers that had come with us, and said: "XXX, you are going to hell". Then he made kind of a karate-kick move towards another brother, a dread who had been observing Mark Mohr in his desperate attempts to receive strength from his spirits.
He was obviously trying to fight the Spirit that is in us by accusing the brethren. He was obviously aware of the spiritual war that was going on and had to make some phyisical movements to reflect his inner struggle.
In the meantime, I had been outside of the building for a while to check out what happened here and there. People who were smoking cigarettes outside were told to go meters beyond the sight of the entrance. If they would not do so, security would come and increasingly put pressure on the smokers.
People who had a little bit of weed had to give this to the security personnel before they could enter the building. One "elder" of the "church" later told me, that this was to "prevent" "drugs dealing".
There was a very tense atmosphere, both outside the building as well as inside. As I wanted to walk inside again, I saw a woman with pain in her eyes as she quickly walked out of the building.
I was soon to find out why.
A man followed her as she moved to a car. He pushed her toward the car and started to brutalize her, and screamed: "You made a disgrace out of me!". Security personnel dropped on the guy, but this is when another guy became hysteric and aggressive as well.
The demons were having a feast!
Or did they panique as they realized JAH people were in the house but couldn't see them?
It's not, that we hid ourselves. We walked around, talked to the people, asked questions, received answers. But why did Mark Mohr literally speak out the name of one brother who had come with us, and made karate kick movements from stage straight to another brother in the crowd?
Why did he, at a certain moment, ask the complete crowd to join him on stage in order to be protected against the lack of energy his spirits usually feed him with?
We did not ask ourselves these questions.
We knew.
We went there, fully armored and equipped and we knew we were going to see the priests of Baal on stage, even the "Gospel Reggae High Priest" himself, as they would desperately try to sell their "gospel", claiming that it's free, without the usual help of their spirits.
I was blessed to give him the answer after the concert.
Mark Mohr sat on a chair, and young people were waiting in a line to get an autograph. He was surrounded by security personnel like he was under some kind of heavy threat. It was actually a bit of a silly sight...
I walked passed the fans, passed the security, still invisible.
Then I stood next to him, and put my hand gently on his shoulder.
I spoke in his ear: "JAH is going to cut you down, man..."
In a shock, he turned his head and we looked each other straight in the eyes.
I continued and said: "...if you don't repent".
I showed him exactly what he had to do, in action.
I turned around, and walked out of Babylon. Out of the Temple of the Christian Industrial Complex. Out of the "church".
Mark Mohr stood up and quickly walked after me, shouting: "Dread, Dread, Can't We Reason?"
When I was outside, my brothers were already waiting for me.
I walked on and one of my brothers told Mark Mohr: "No More Reasoning, Mark..."
The High Priest of "Gospel Reggae" quickly went back into the Temple.
I hope he knows I could have cut his dreadlocks right there, just like Buju Banton tried to do so many years ago. I hope he realizes, that I didn't do it because I and I don't fight his flesh and blood and will not ever fight his flesh and blood as the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but spiritual.
Spiritual, like the reason why he was brought to Groningen in the first place.
I hope he realized why he was brought to Groningen. Christafari seems to acknowledge that they were supernaturally led towards this confrontation, just like that other time not so long ago.
That was when Mark Mohr contacted me a minute after I publicly announced I would no longer try to reach out to Christafari(ans) and he had to admit the supernatural nature of the event, but was unable to explain the reasons why.
Mark Mohr knows the reason why. He is a slave of the Christian Industry himself as he tries to keep as many souls under bondage of the Churchianity as he can possible can.
It would be a great joy to see him repent and step out of the Christian Industrial Complex, it would be great to see him walking out of that spiritual prison called "church" or "christian industry" where the faithful are the merchandize, just like he did so briefly in his flesh, when he walked after me and tried to "reason"...
Sure...
He could have "reasoned" for a long time. That time is gone.
There is only one word for Mark Mohr, and in fact for all those who work for Babylon Queendom in the Christian Industrial Complex. That word is, in the Name of Jesus Who is JAH: "Step Out Of Her My People, So That You Will Not Receive Of Their Plagues".
There is still time, even though it becomes shorter and shorter.
The "Gospel Reggae Industry" may flourish, Mark Mohr may sell another 400,000 CD's of his false gospel of submission to the dominionists. Mark Mohr may continue to do his evil works as the parasite who wants to rule over the flock of JAH as if JAH does not hear the souls that suffer bigtime.
Sure.
But one thing is definitely sure, and that date is set.
JAH Knows this date, we don't.
But the word is: "Jah Is Going To Cut You Down If You Don't Repent"
Step out of her JAH people!
One Love, Give Thanks,

HOW CCM TRIES TO KILL REGGAE MUSIC AND CULTURE
WWW, September 4, 2007 - August 26, Messian Dread was interviewed on Channel-Z Radio about Christafari. The following article wass written to explain the relevance and the history of this school example of Spiritual War in the 21st Century
Reggae Music was born somewhere in the 1960’s, on the island of Jamaica. A historical event, because it marked the start of what was going to be one of the most spiritual forms of music the world has ever known.
Thirty years earlier, Jamaica witnessed another historical event as the island gave birth to the Movement Of Rastafari. This movement has been a major influence throughout the history of Reggae and is responsible for the irremovable spiritual foundation of the music.
Reggae and Rastafarian Culture developed into a worldwide phenomenon as it reached out to countless sufferers with a prophetic message of hope and identified the world system as the biblical Babylon.
Reggae Music is often called “JAH Music”. JAH is a Biblical Name for the Creator. Christians sing this Name every time they say “HalleluJAH”, and the Name can be found in the King James Version in Psalm 68:4 as well.
Most Reggae artists will have one or more musical works that will contain worship of the Creator. Where the Bible says “Every Tong Will Confess”, you could say that in Reggae Music we see a prophetic foreshadowing of this truth.
Another prophetic foreshadowing becomes clear, when the Movement of Rastafari is observed from a spiritual perspective.
Every Rasta worships JAH Rastafari, which means: JAH, the Head Creator.
Ras Tafari was the name of the Ethiopian Emperor Haile Selassie before he became Emperor. This name Haile Selassie means “Power of the Trinity”, an obvious Reference to Jesus Christ.
The Ethiopian Emperor did not claim to be Jah Rastafari, did not claim to be Haile Selassie, but used these names because he was aware of the fact that since he was a son of Solomon, his very function as Emperor was a prophetic foreshadowing of that one King, Jesus Christ.
In spite of the common idea, popularized by many if not all “Christian Cult Experts”, not all Rastafarians believe the Emperor to be what his names mean. It was nobody less than the leader of the biggest Rastafarian Organization in the world, who said:
- "I am talking about the return of Christ who is going to sit on the throne of David. (…) I am making a differentiation (between Jesus Christ and Haile Selassie). Because Christ the same yesterday, today and forever. And even after His Majesty say, Him saved not by the man character but by the blood of Jesus Christ." http://rastafari.dubroom.org/audio.htm#gad
The spiritual roots and nature of Reggae music has appealed to countless of people worldwide throughout the decades, who where drawn to JAH, the Creator, without the mediation of a Church or any other form of prison by what is usually called “Christianity”.
Until recently, that is.
Until about ten years ago…
Where we have established, how the spiritual roots of Reggae Music was born thirty years before the music itself came into existence, we are now about to establish another fact, which took place about thirty years (!) after the event.
A fact that has a very spiritual nature too, but not a very positive one.
You could say, that a spiritual son of Christopher Columbus “discovered” Jamaica once again and established how there was money to be made by using the souls of the inhabitants for the glorification and enlargement of the “Judeo-Christian Civilization”: Babylon, Satanika…
Confused?
Let me explain.
Or even better, let him explain!
May I introduce you to “Pastor”, “President” MARK MOHR, self-proclaimed “pioneer and leader of the Gospel Reggae genre”, founder of the band “Christafari” and the philosophy of “Christafarianism”, first among many “Christafarians”?
Christafari is the name, and don’t we dare think that this is jus a slick word play on the word Rastafari. Christafari venomously denies this, and points out to the word “Christophorus” which they claim means “Christ Bearers” to explain where they’re coming from.
Well, that maybe so, you know…
Research will reveal, that CHRISTOPHORUS is the official name of the one we know as Christopher Columbus, and it will not take a rocket scientist to realize that Christopher Columbus is not really, let’s say, appreciated by most people in the Caribbean.
Especially not by Rastafarians.
Deep research will reveal, that indeed Christafari isn’t named after Christopher Columbus just because of the obvious similarity with the word Rastafari.
Deeper research will lead every Truthlover to the conclusion, that indeed Christafari has more in common with Christophorus Colonos than with Rastafari, even though the word indeed is a rather perverse and sickening imitation of the word that means Head Creator.
However, we are talking about the kind of research that takes years and years.
The kind of research you do after you engage something that doesn’t seem right. The kind of research you do, when you find out that people have made themselves an image that cannot be described as anything else but a perverse satanic imitation of what you know to be your Spiritual Identity in Jesus Christ.
This research is done, this conclusion is drawn.
It started in the mid 1990’s, when Frysian DUB Artist Messian Dread and the Californian Mark Mohr “met” each other over the Internet.
Both men initially thought they had met a spiritual brother.
Both wore dreadlocks, the mark of the Nazarite. Both produced Reggae Music. Both used the Ethiopian colors Red Gold and Green in their appearance. Both gave praises to JAH and both firmly proclaimed Jesus Christ.
Both men were doing it as a matter of expressing their spiritual identity.
Messian Dread knew himself to be part of Reggae and Rastafari Culture.
In 1987, JAH (Jesus) told him to grow his dreadlocks as an outward sign of his spiritual identity. After this, JAH told a black born again Rastaman originally from French Guyana but living in Belgium to visit Messian Dread and teach him the basics about his spiritual identity. Both men had never met and the details about this meeting are simply remarkable.
Mark Mohr knew himself to be part of the Christian CCM and Neo-evangelical Culture.
After he “came to Christ” in 1987, “God” told him to imitate the outward appearance of what he perceived as Rastafari and Reggae, and start calling himself a “Christafarian”.
He would study “cults” on the infamous BIOLA University and learned the finer details of his wolves-in-sheep’s-clothing-method at Bob Beeman’s Sanctuary Church, where he was also “ordained” as a “pastor”.
Bob Beeman, by the way, is well known for founding the Christian Heavy Metal Industry in the 1980’s by mixing “church” and “ministry” with business. His “church” produced bands like Stryper and Vengeance Rising, for example.
Bob Beeman would encourage people to dress up like Satanists, speak like Satanists, look like Satanists. The only difference would be the words.
Where the Satanist Heavy Metal bands would speak about “Black Metal”, Bob Beeman would speak about “White Metal”. You could say, that Bob Beeman’s “Christianity” was some form of “anti-Satanism” like Satanism likes to present itself as a form of “anti-Christianity”.
Mark Mohr learned to apply Bob Beeman’s approach of the Satanic Heavy Metal Culture to what he perceived as Rasta and Reggae Culture.
He learned to dress up like a Rasta, speak like a Rasta, look like a Rasta. Just outwardly, that is. Just to make a name for himself, a carrier in the Christian Industrial Complex.
This is how “Rastafari” became “Christafari”.
This is how Mark Mohr and Messian Dread would “meet” and initially think that they were spiritual brothers.
It went like this: Mark Mohr asked Messian Dread to help him out on a certain messageboard in the Internet.
Mark Mohr was quoted in the Christian Media as saying –for example- how it was an honor among Rastafarians to kill Christians. When people who knew better would start to address this issue in the public messageboard, he simply asked Messian Dread to tell these people that it was not Mark Mohr who was saying that. Messian Dread in his turn asked Mark Mohr to rectify his public statements, or to use his contacts in the Christian Industry to spread truth rather than lies about Rastafari and Reggae.
The rectifications never came, and when a third “incident” of this kind occurred Messian Dread woke up and smelled the coffee.
These were not isolated incidents; these were symptoms of a pattern!
Messian Dread started to contact Mark Mohr and tried to show him how he could not “apply the Bob Beeman method” to Rastafarians, so to speak. For you can say whatever you want about Bob Beeman and his method, you cannot compare Rastafarians and Satanic Heavy Metal fans spiritually.
Messian Dread had been blessed to transcribe the interview with Gadman, the leader of the biggest Rastafarian Organization in the world, quoted in this article as saying that he does not believe the Ethiopian Emperor to be what his names mean. This transcription became authorized by Gadman and is now spread all over the world.
Messian Dread sent Mark Mohr a copy of the audio as well as the transcription of the interview, and asked him to rectify the enormous amount of false information about Rastafari on the Christafari website.
Mark Mohr would respond increasingly in an aggressive manner, as he climbed on the ladder of the Christian Industrial Complex, where he proclaimed “God” told him to “plug a gap”, for: there was no “Gospel Reggae”!
In the meantime, Messian Dread had become kind of a pioneer in the field of independent computer-based artists releasing DUB Reggae over the Internet for free: the online DUB Artists…
Mark Mohr’s band “Christafari” had joined a Reggae tour with some well-known artists like Steel Pulse and Buju Banton. During this tour, they handed out booklets written by Mark Mohr in which he disdainfully insults Rastafarians and tells lies about the movement.
One artist, Buju Banton, got so angry at Mohr’s writing that he wanted to cut the dreadlocks of Mohr’s head.
Mark Mohr’s first encounter with true Reggae and Rastafari Culture was not so pleasant for the Christafarian at first, but it was broadly covered in the Christian Media where he was displayed a martyr for Christ in the fight against these “evil Rastas”…
He went on and “planted” a church in Trinidad, after failing to “plant” one in Jamaica. It was his attempt to start a “church” in the style of Bob Beeman’s Sanctuary Church: more a gateway to the Gospel Industry than a genuine Gathering on Jah People.
It failed miserably, and Mohr privately wrote what sources described as a “divorce letter”. However, he never made this public himself.
All of this gave him an opening to the Christian Industry bigtime, as he built his own little empire within the borders of CCM and has now (august 2007) sold over 400,000 CD’s in which he basically preaches a Purpose Driven Gospel and back-bites to people, such as people in Trinidad who he refers to as “cannibals” in his album “To the Foundation”.
Back in 2004, Messian Dread had privately tried to make Mark Mohr dwell on truth rather than lies, about Rastafari for example, for seven years.
To no avail.
This is when Messian Dread wrote a little booklet in December 2004 called “Christafarianism, or: Don’t Be A Rasta, Be Like A Rasta”.
It wasn’t received well by Christafari, who had been writing negative articles about Messian Dread years before the publication of the booklet “Christafarianism”.
They launched a campaign to kill the messenger, starting off by publicly handing Messian Dread over to Satan. All hell broke loose as the true nature of Christafari and the attached philosophy of Christafarianism was uncovered to a deeper level.
A year later Messian Dread published a second book: “The Mystery of Christafarianism” in which he revealed the spiritual identity of the “Christafarian” and wrote a detailed, heavily footnoted unauthorized biography.
Fast forward to 2007.
Mark Mohr is still considered to be the leader of the growing Gospel Reggae Industry. The Emperor in his Gospelreggae Kingdom is still naked, as he makes his dollars and paves the way for clones of himself: Artists proclaiming in their music and video clips how Jesus is going to make them rich with this “new style”, for example.
Messian Dread is still exposing Christafari, exposing the Christian Industrial Complex of which Christafari is only a little part. He has written numerous articles and has an extensive research archive on his website, where a special place is dedicated to the expose of Christafari.
He is hated by the majority of “Gospel Reggae” artists, who themselves are working towards a carrier in the Christian Industry while they spread lies about Rastafari and Reggae Music in order to justify their commercialization of Christianity.
Messian Dread’s struggle against the forces of the Christian Industrial Complex can be considered a school example of Spiritual Warfare in the 21st Century.
JAH Willing, he will be interviewed on Channel-Z on August 25, 2007 about this very subject.
Christafari to perform at Purpose Driven HQ
WWW, June 18 2007 - Just recently, "Gospel Reggae" band Christafari announced they will perform at Rick Warren's Saddleback Church in California. The concert will take place as a part of a $379 pp event.
This event is quite revealing, as it shows the true nature of Christafari's "Christianity" to a deeper level. After all, it has been thoroughly documented how Rick Warren and his Puropse Driven System is nothing short but the antichrist in the disguise of an evangelical Christian.
Christafari, who deny that their name is a mockery of the word Rastafari and refer to the root of Christopher Columbus' name instead to explain where they are coming from, have also been documented to be of exactly the same spirit as Rick Warren.
A "Christafarian" attempt to start a Purpose Driven church on Trinidad miserably failed when the people disaproved with the model. Christafari's "Pastor Mark" Mohr just recently refered to the people of Trinidad as "cannibals", in one of the tracks on their latest album "To The Foundation".
The event where Christafari will perform is a three-day conference, where people have to pay almost 400 dollars to "learn to worship" their "god".

Christafari's "Spiritual Snacks" A Gospel of Works
Since the second book on Christafari is out, and they changed their most important website into gospel reggae dot com, there is a new section called "Spiritual Snacks". Not only does it remind me of the fact that there is a book called "Spiritual Junkfood", it gave me also a bit of a closer look into the theology of Mark Mohr.
I must say: I weep over those who see Mark Mohr as a good Bible Teacher. His message is confused and contradictional.
The "snacks" allways end with Mark Mohr praying some holy prayer about himself. It reminds me of the Rabbi's who say their prayers in front of the public so that they can be respected once more.
I'm saving all the "Spiritual Snacks" into one big file, and I read them all. Everyday, there's another one. And sometimes, there's a repeat.
I wasn't going to comment on them, just reading them. But they shock me. If this is the "spiritual leader" that many think is so knowledgeable, I doubt if many will get saved.
Because, even though the Christafari website does not contain a page where the Gospel is explained in simple words, these "snacks" make it even worse...
When you want to become a Christian, the Christafari website will not tell you how to. And now, with these "snacks", more revelation comes as it is clear what kind of teaching "Pastor Mark" gives his "Cyber Parishioners"...
There are several instances in which I clearly saw how Mohr is preaching a gospel of works. Not salvation by faith, but salvation by works. Today was the most blatant one. Here it is:
- Action Talks
"For it is not those who hear the law who are righteous in God's sight, but it is those who obey the law who will be declared righteous." Romans 2:13 (NIV)
When it comes to God, action speaks louder than words. The Lord isn't fooled by your empty vocabulary. The only person that you are fooling is yourself. God does not desire your meaningless lip service. He requires obedience and adherence to His laws. We must act on what we have heard. If we do this and obey His law, He will declare us right with in His eyes through the work of His Son Jesus. Action talks.
God, let me not just be a hearer of your Word, but also a doer. Help me to truly live according to your Laws. Don't let my mind wander onto other topics when I read Your Word. Lord, please help me to retain your principles and put them into practice daily. Amen
Mark Mohr
Is it really so, that when we obey God's Law, that Yesus' Work will then become a reason for God to "declare us right"?
No, it's the other way around. Because Yesus declared us right, we will become right!
Please, take a closer look at this Christafarian absurdity. It is a gospel of works. For it is not by works that we are "declared right". A better word is "justified", but since Mark Mohr continually uses New Age Bible Versions that obscures the Gospel of Yesus Kristos even more, it has become "declared right".
The Bible does not say: "Obey the Law and be justified". The bible says: "Admit that the law condemns you and that you are unable to live up to it, and then gladly accept the fact that Yesus Kristos has lived up to the Law for us". The Bible says: "thou areth saved by faith alone, and not by works!"
Here is another one taken from the last "spiritual snacks", also clearly stating this other gospel, this gospel by works:
QUOTE: "We can only receive this gift and be forgiven of our sins if we acknowledge our sinfulness, confess and repent of our sins (I John 1:9). After we have done this, God can and will use us in tremendous ways."
COMMENT: Mark Mohr clearly says that in order to get eternal life you have to "repent of our sins". the Apostle John clearly says that if we say we are without sin we make God a Liar. Still Mark Mohr claims this has to be done in order to get saved.
He has it wrong. It is not so that you have to repent from your sins in order to become born again. No, it is so that in order to become born again you must believe that Yesus Kristos did the good work you cannot do, and that Yesus Kristos died the death you deserve! And when you then become born again, this is the moment in which the Lord Himself works out in you that you start to live righteous. For it is, according to the Bible: "No Longer I But Christ In I"!
Mohr is also influenced by the "Purpose Driven (R) Life", the gospel of the neo evangelicals who think that it is their methods rather then the Truth of Yesus which will "save people". Take a look at this, Mark Mohr even indirectly rebuking our Lord Yesus for not being simple enough to Nicodemus!
QUOTE: "Let’s face it, there are certain catch phrases that we say that just don’t make sense to the lost. It took Jesus a long time to explain the concept of being “Born again” to Nicodemus. And to be baptized in the blood sounds downright disgusting to a non-believer. It’s no wonder why we are not winning over converts left and right. So keep it real. Rethink your language. Be all things to all men."
So, if Yesus would only have been all things to all men He wouldn't have to spend all night explaining too difficult subjects with Nicodemus. I say, Yesus Kristos never made a mistake. I say, you don't need to have methods which will then make (quote) "over converts left and right"!
No, by looking at the spiritual junkfood coming from this "Pastor", I am weeping over those that see him as a spiritual authorityu. He leads them right to the the other Gospel that Paulus warned us about. A gospel of works. A blasphemic gospel that needs to give our Lord Yesus Kristos as an example of w "wrong method of evangelizing".
Someone better start telling Mark Mohr the truth!
