Do you know why all those fancy soundsystems are set up? The so-called fancy everything? We are fighting with the Xbox generation. A generation that has not grown up with the bible at the coffee table, ripped out of schools. The generation X and Y's that have televsion, you tube, netflix, cable, satelite, nintendos galore, and everything else from hip hop music, to heavy metal. Pastor Steve is reaching a broad spectrum of people that ends with thousands a year getting saved and getting baptised. What's it too you? Did not Jesus say...if your not for me you are against me? Jesus's house cannot stand divided. No one here can honestly say anything bad about people getting saved, delivered, and healed. If God chooses to use the Family Christian Center to do that who are you to argue with God? There is a story that God sent so many laborers into the field, some produced 10, 5, and 2 more coins, others produced none. Be happy you get your 2 and 5, don't get mad because Pastor Steve has 10 plus. What has been given to him, is because he is multiplying for the kingdom of God. What a great responsibility. Obviously these are shoes not everyone can fill. I was there when he went to Westville Correctional Facility and watched 1200 prisoners bow there heads and get saved. He preached about Gomer and Hosea. I can't even begin to speak about that, it would fill this whole comment board, but read the book of Hosea for yourself and you would understand. His message is always about reaching a lost generation. There is nothing wrong with that. They are cleaning up the mess so many have left behind. I was at a store the other day listening to a Father talk about how he just got out of court, stating he wishes he could give up his custody rights so he would not have to pay child support. He doesnt even love what came from his own body. Men have lost thier love one for another. Now these children come to this church and are loved, shown they have a Heavenly Father who loves them. The moms are out there struggling. Sure this is not the case for everyone, but so many out there are suffering. This church is like a hospital, you come in, you will never be the same. You go out with a brand new out look on life. There is nothing wrong with that.

That house in Briar Ridge, he has had for over 30 years before Briar Ridge became the most expensive place to live. You could buy houses back then for pennies on the dollar before they were worth a quarter of a million dollars. Back then, volunteers helped build that house. Just like Lakes of the Four Seasons. Back in the 80s the same 2 story house was going for just $55,000 now $500,000! The cars were given to him by people who had the money to buy them cars so they could get around due to all the traveling they do. They were not bought with parish money. Is it far fetched to believe someone would be nice enough to just walk up to you and say here is a brand new car free and clear? People do that. Is that drinking Kool-aid? Famous people walk in and give because they see this man has an annointing on him and wisdom. Just like the Queen of Sheba gave gifts to King Solomon. Is it far fetched?

Okay, since no one is bold enough to say it, I am. How much good has this church done for it's people here in Northwest Indiana and the surrounding communities? Were you there Palm Sunday weekend listening to the testimonies of people who came in hopeless and the Pastor preached a message of hope and now they are saved, delivered, and healed? Were you there when Jesus aka YAHSHUA found those hopeless people and wrapped his loving arms around them? Were you there, when they were hungry and needed something to eat? Operation Care feeds hundreds of families weekly through out Northwest Indiana. Were you there when they had no clothes to wear? FCC clothed them! Were you there when they marched to the prisons telling the prisoners there is hope and gave them the message that someone does still love them and they can come home and be productive members of society? FCC was! The bible says what you have done to the least of these you have done to me. You all talk the talk but do you walk the walk? You claim mega churches are a show, but have you walked into FCC? I didn't think so. Do you know how many murderers, drug users and drug dealers, rapists, child molestors, and even fallen politicians have walked into this place and even famous people, and there lives have changed for the good? People talk too much garbage. Be greatful the times is not looking into your personal finances to see what garbage you have and have had in the past. Be greatful your money issues are not being posted in the Newspaper for the world to see. The IRS has went over FCC's finances with a fine comb and has found every cent went to a great cause. That is why you have not heard something like FCC found to be frauds because they are NOT! They do great things for the masses. Were you there Wednesday night when hundreds ran to the alter to get baptised? Did you know they could barely get into the hall way because of all the people who wanted to get saved? This church is the real deal and people give because they know it goes to good Godly purposes. God only asks for 10 percent. That is only $10 out out of 100 and the Pastor doesn't ask for more than that. If you can, give an offering, if you can't, oh well. Things happen. He has never asked anyone to forsake there home and life savings. This is not a cult. Find out the truth before you throw stones judging.

What kind of a sick twisted **** does that to a baby? Unreal! There needs to be a harsher penalty for such acts of perversion. They have ruined that poor baby for life! That baby didn't even get a chance! The therapy sessions that little one will have to go through, ugghhh! Makes me sick to my stomach! I am praying for that toddler! I mean good lord.

About judging others, the Bible was talking about sins against one another. Murder is something totally different than other sins that can be forgiven and forgotten, such as adultery, theft, etc.....but do not be deceived, there is a judgment. Revelation 13:10
He that shall lead into captivity shall go into captivity: he that shall kill by the sword must be killed by the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints. A jury convicted this young man of murder. So now, it is in the hands of God! Today Amanda, can truly rest in peace. Pray for the families, because in the end, both families lost a family member. No one dreams to wake up and find their son is a murderer.
