I first came across this website maybe 3 years ago, and was intrigued, then appalled…

it’s guaranteed that whatever pastor uses these sermons pastors a carnal, weak house.

Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets, declares the Lord, who steal my words from one another (Jer. 23:30)

We’re not talking inspiration, we’re talking plagiarism, and laziness, and the unanointed. Taking the same message to a new church every night, not because it is an excellent message any church can learn from and apply, but because its more convenient and you just want to be on program. I’m sure at some point this month many a black preacher will recreate MLKs “I have a dream” or “mountain top” speech, but they should give the same respect to their regular Sunday “ghost writer” that is not the Holy Ghost, that they do MLK, Jr. and acknowledge them. They are not famous- unless you’re the guy repreaching Jakes as Observer mentioned- but they deserve respect.

Well, its seems to me that its a little hard to believe that God’s speaks (his actual voice) to Pastors every give and take 48 Sunday’s a year…my God thats probally more than God spoke to Moses his whole life….

I am really concerned when I hear Pastors or Preachers say that “God spoke to them”! Now, I God speaks through his word, through people, through our life experiences, even through nature…so in this manner I don’t believe it is so totally odd or sinful for other preachers to get inspiration from other preachers; at the end of the day preacher and Pastor’s are supposed to preach under the “anointing of God” and thus its the message, the anointing that destroys the yoke..an anointed preacher and get in the pulpit and just say Jesus, 4x and the anointing will fall and bring healing, deliverance and joy and strength to the body of believers….

Now as far as studying…every believer of God should be studying…spending 101 time with God; and again…its through God’s word that he begins to speak to us…thru the Holy Spirit that we are comforted and reminded of “what the Logos” spoke; the “Logos” being Jesus Christ…the word of God….its a duty we all have..regardless of who we are in Christ…

Wow. Quite sad.

I rembember in the 90′s I was working at a Christian bookstore, and I remember seeing pastors/preachers coming in buying books that provided such prepackaged sermons. One of the most popular of these books was one called “Preach For A Year” which had 52 sermons all laid out for the “man of God” to preacwh. Even as a baby Christian back then, something seemed kinda “off” about that. I rememeber thinking I’d never want to sit under a pastor who gets his sermons from a book he picked up for $9.99 in a bookstore!

(There was also the time a preacher at that store told me [unashamedly]that he had rented a TD Jakes preaching tape the previous Saturday and was so moved by it that he turned around and preached that same message to his church the next day at Sunday morning service.)

I really feel sad for anyone who goes to church on a Sunday morning hearing one of these canned sermons, who’s actually thinking they’re hearing “a word from the Lord”. Then again, in a lot of churches the so-called “saints” just want to hear a sermon that’s “inspriring”, and dont particularly care whare it came from.
