Ounce of Prevention
When the gorgeous actress Catherine Zeta-Jones decided to get married to the then-reigning champion of infidelity, Michael Douglas, she showed she’s not just a looker, she’s a thinker too. Their prenuptial agreement contained a $5 million-per-instance-of-adultery clause. Nothing like a strong contract. If you want a relationship filled with devotion and the knowledge you are cherished, it might be better to take a pass, or you could go for the money.
My church is following suit. Dancing around what looks like a good time, but with a binding contract just in case. When I told my pastor what I’m about to tell you he responded that she has been put under a firm contract to not deviate from solid Christianity. Forgot to ask if we get $5 million an occurrence.
Still, the burning question is why. Why venture into a relationship with someone you must contain with a strong contract? Go for a guy you know loves you enough to be faithful. Go for someone to instruct the women in your church who is well, Christian.
You see we invited a sparkly blonde darling of the American church to speak. Her name is Jennie Allen. You can visit her website and she’ll tell you all about herself. She’s a “Bible teacher, author, and the founder and visionary of IF: Gathering. I love God and I believe in this generation of women”.
Jennie is bursting with bubbly deliciousness and yet her IF: Gathering leadership team is a who’s who (not to be) of the current spiritual movement.
Jen Hatmaker has been a close associate but no longer publicly appears with the team, perhaps it’s because her open advocacy of homosexuality is getting cumbersome to explain away. If you think same-sex marriages can be sacred, as Jen asserts, by all means, hang with this crowd.
Ann Voskamp has written a book called One Thousand Gifts. Here’s an excerpt:
I Fly to Paris and Discover How To Make Love To God
“God lays down all of His fullness into all the emptiness. I am in Him. He is in me. I embrace God in the moment. I give Him thanks and I bless God and we meet and couldn’t I make love to God, making every moment love for Him? To know Him the way Adam knew Eve. Spirit skin to spirit skin. The intercourse of soul with God is the very climax of joy.”
My skin crawled to such an extent on this one, it disappeared for three days. I had to talk it out of a hole so that I could re-clothe myself and continue typing.
Less creepy but just as dangerous are the rest of the gals Jennie surrounds herself with.

I believe it’s safe to say, all are woke and completely asleep.
Yet, how about Jennie herself? Let’s use her own words. This is from her Dream Guide.
“It really is as simple as this. Do the best you can in this world and as you’re going, love God and give Him away to people.” (Not Christian, not even close)
“When we create and thrive for the good of others, you’re participating in God’s redemptive work of making the world better.” (This one neither)
If you think this is Christianity, you need to get a Bible and read the thing. Jennie should too because she said “the Enneagram is the tool that has helped my interior work most profoundly.” Don’t know what that is? It’s a guide to show you your deepest, purest essence, created under admitted demonic influence and developed for over 100 years with ‘spirit guides’. The creators admit it has elements of Kabbalah, Taoism, Buddhism, Islam, and as they put it ‘Christianity’. A witches’ brew of blended lies.
I like my Christianity the way I used to like my whiskey – neat. Undiluted, pure, strong. The good stuff. I’ve knocked off the whiskey but my taste in Christianity is only getting more discerning. I’m not going to swallow a cheap blend because in the end it’s the most expensive of all.
So it looks like we’re passing on prevention but using a contract as a safeguard. The pound of cure is still coming. God help us.
Yes, very upsetting to see many churches headed the same direction. We must read God’s word of instruction to us, daily and start by asking for Him to open our eyes to these things slowly but surely creeping into our church. And He will if only we listen.
I just saw a friend’s FB post today – she went to Texas and visited the location where The Chosen is filmed then went to an IF Gathering . . . an entire trip based on a fake Jesus. Heartbreaking.
Thank you for compiling and summarizing this information.
American churches are suffused with lies in the form of ‘worship’ music that is man-centered, watered-down teaching or outright false teaching that’s dressed up with a ‘fresh’ look at who God is. Sigh. I fear for many people.
