Joseph Prince Vs Derek Prince, Peter Tan-Chi, Martyn Lloyd-Jones & Michael Brown on the Fear of the Lord – By Rev George Ong (Dated 21 June 2024)
Announcement No 1:
There are 7 videos on Derek Prince
& 1 video each on Peter Tan-Chi,
Michael Brown & Joseph Prince.
Announcement No 2:
I believe after an absence of 4 consecutive Sundays,
Joseph Prince would most likely be preaching this Sunday.
If not this Sunday, then definitely, the next.
Please see the Appendix
for the Featured YouTube comments.
Excerpt No 1 from the Article:
In a teaching session, Derek Prince said;
“Proverbs 10 verse 27 says this,
“The fear of the LORD prolongs days,
But the years of the wicked will be shortened.”
So, listen, if you have the Fear of the Lord in your life
you will live longer than you would have without it.
Doesn’t tell you how long you will live,
but you will live longer than you would have lived
without the Fear of the Lord in your life.
And I’ve lived a long life
and I need some more years of life
because my job on earth is not finished.
And I tell you I’m very careful
to cultivate the Fear of the Lord
because it prolongs life.
Who would turn that down?
The only people who would turn that down
are people who are totally unbelieving or totally ignorant.
You cannot afford to live without the Fear of the Lord.”
George Ong’s comments:
Derek Prince brought to our attention
that the condition of long life
is the Fear of the Lord:
Proverbs 10:27 NLT
Fear of the Lord lengthens one’s life,
but the years of the wicked are cut short.
Since Joseph Prince has not even met the condition
of fearing God
because he teaches against it,
how can he be qualified to teach on long life
and inherit such a blessing
in the first place?
Joseph Prince’s claim that he would live a long life to 120
is pure garbage that is fit for the dumps.
Excerpt No 2 from the Article:
@desmondteng3025
“The congregation laughed
when Joseph Prince said, ‘Tian Ah’.
Is it a joke?
Where is the fear of God?”
@desmondteng3025
“Derek Prince preached on deliverance,
Joseph Prince preached on prosperity.
Derek Prince preached on the fear of God,
Joseph Prince preached on hyper grace.
Two different Princes.”
@joyceliew4352
“@edmundsim6251
Years ago, we opened up The Bible
and showed it to our care group members
about errors in Joseph Prince’s teachings.
But we were shocked to hear they said
that the Bible were written by men
and therefore, there might be some errors
whereas Joseph Prince teaches accurately
and they rather stand with Joseph Prince’s teachings.
What else is still needed to say for us?
We left with much grief.”
@lindsaylim5806
“@joyceliew4352
So sad to read this.
The National Council of Churches of Singapore (NCCS)
should read this and weep!”
(This article was also sent to Rev Dr Ngoei Foong Nghian, General Secretary, National Council of Churches of Singapore (NCCS) office, and for the attention of the Executive Committee Members.)
In 2 sermons, Joseph Prince said;
“Come children. Listen to me.
I will teach you, this is how it starts,
what it means to fear the Lord.
Notice it begins with children,
the Father is talking to you.
I want to teach you the Fear of the Lord.
So, we have all kinds of ideas
about the Fear of the Lord in the Body of Christ.
In fact, there seemed to be a revival of teaching
on the Fear of the Lord,
the Old Testament way.
God has moved mountains; they don’t even realise.
They are camping in old ground.
They are in New Covenant.
Many Christians, unfortunately, are in the New Covenant,
Old Covenant mentality.
They still have the wrong kind of fear of God.
And Jesus defined the Fear of the Lord as,
in the wilderness temptation,
as the worship of God.
Thou shall worship the Lord thy God.
Well, you look at that verse He quoted from
is from Deuteronomy 6:13
where it says thou shall fear the Lord thy God.
So, Jesus defined the Fear of the Lord (Deut 6:13)
in the Old Testament as worship (Matt 4:10).”
George Ong’s comments:
Joseph Prince creates a false dichotomy
between the Old Testament and the New Testament’s
understanding of the Fear of the Lord.
His view is that we must never fear God
the Old Testament way,
as Jesus Himself had defined
the Fear of the Lord as the worship of God.
in the New Covenant
This false dichotomy generated by Joseph Prince
is exposed by Derek Prince, Martyn Lloyd-Jones,
Michael Brown and Peter Tan-Chi
as I will unveil in the ensuing discussion.
In ‘Power of Right Believing,’ Joseph Prince wrote:
“When the devil tempted Jesus in the wilderness, he said,
“All these things [all the kingdoms of the world and their glory]
I will give You if You will fall down and worship me.”
Jesus, quoting from the book of Deuteronomy, replied,
“Away with you, Satan! For it is written,
‘You shall worship the LORD your God,
and Him only you shall serve’” (Matt. 4:9-10).
Now, if you do a quick check
on what Jesus quoted in the book of Deuteronomy,
it actually says,
“You shall fear the LORD your God…” (Deut. 6:13).
So Jesus defined the “fear” of God
as the “worship” of God.
In other words, the only “fear”
that you should have in your life is the worship of God.
Worship Him and all your fears will fade away
in the light of His glory and grace.”
George Ong’s comments:
Even if it is true that Jesus understood the Fear of the Lord
in Deuteronomy 6:13 as worship in Matthew 4:10,
what about the many other verses
that contain the Fear of the Lord
in the New Testament?
Many of such verses
that comprise the Fear of the Lord
is speaking about fearing God per se
and not strictly about the worship of God.
Three of such examples
are Matthew 10:28, Acts 9:31 and 1 Peter 1:15-19.
In a teaching session, Derek Prince said;
“Now, I’m going back to the theme which I announced,
The Fear of the Lord.
So many Christians have got the idea,
“Well, that was something from the Old Testament.
It was under the Law.
We don’t need the Fear of the Lord in our lives at all.
That’s old fashioned.”
That’s totally unscriptural and uncorrect.
I want to give you just a few simple facts from Scripture
about the Fear of the Lord.
Psalm 19 and verse 9 says this.
“The fear of the LORD is clean,
enduring forever…”
So, there’s never a time
when the Fear of the Lord ceases to be relevant.
It endures forever.
And in Proverbs 23 verse 17, the writer of Proverbs says:
“That you may continue all day long
in the fear of the Lord…”
So, the Fear of the Lord is forever and it’s for all day long.
In other words, there is no time in your life
when you should not be in the Fear of the Lord.”
George Ong’s comments:
Derek Prince has debunked Joseph Prince’s lie
that the Old Testament’s understanding
of the Fear of the Lord
is no longer relevant in the New Covenant.
Since the Fear of the Lord endures forever (Psa 19:9),
this means that the Old Testament’s conception
of the Fear of the Lord
continues into the New Covenant
and through all of eternity.
In a teaching session, Derek Prince said;
“First of all, it is fear of a special kind, but it is fear.
You’ll notice quite a number of the modern translations
don’t use the word fear.
That, I think, is partly under a humanistic influence
which would indicate we don’t have to fear God.
Believe me, we do have to fear God.
God is to be feared
and there’s nothing in the Bible
that ever suggests that’s done away with.”
George Ong’s comments:
Derek Prince has again stated
that since the Fear of the Lord
has not been done away with,
God is to be feared
for all New Covenant believers today.
In a teaching session, Derek Prince said;
“Psalm 19:9, which says:
“The fear of the Lord is clean,
enduring forever.”
I believe the Fear of the Lord is not merely clean,
it is cleansing.
It purifies; it keeps us clean.
And that passage says it endures forever.
Not merely for this life but for eternity.
The Fear of the Lord
will always be a mark of all the true people of God
– whether human or angelic.”
George Ong’s comments:
Since Derek Prince states
that the Fear of the Lord will
always be a mark of all the true people of God,
Joseph Prince, who deliberately does away
with the Fear of the Lord
for the New Covenant,
does not belong to the true people of God.
In a teaching session, Derek Prince said;
to view the 1-minute-40-second video:
“Well, I’m saved.
I don’t need the Fear of the Lord.”
That’s when you need it most.
Let me show you in 1 Peter.
1 Peter chapter 1, verses 15 through 19,
and remember this is written to people
who’ve been redeemed by the blood of Jesus.
“But as He who has called you is holy,
you also be holy in all your conduct,
[all your conduct, not some of it.]
because it is written,
‘Be holy, for I am holy.’
And if you call on the Father
who without partiality judges
according to each one’s work,
conduct yourselves throughout the time
of your sojourning here in fear.”
Whom was it written to?
People redeemed by the blood of Jesus.
What did it say?
Conduct the time of your sojourning here in fear.
And why?
“Knowing that you were not redeemed
with corruptible things, like silver or gold,
from your aimless conduct
received by tradition from your fathers,
but with the precious blood of Christ,
as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.”
The very fact that God paid our redemption
with the blood of Jesus,
the most precious thing in the universe,
is a reason why we should always walk in fear.
Fear that we somehow betray our Redeemer,
fear that somehow, we lower the price of our redemption
to something cheap and insignificant.
That’s the mark of a committed Christian.
That’s the mark of a Christian
who understands what it cost God to redeem him.”
George Ong’s comments:
Derek Prince by his exposition of 1 Peter 1:15-19
has dealt a death blow
to Joseph Prince’s teaching
that the Fear of the Lord under the Old Covenant
no longer applies to the New Covenant.
Derek Prince went on to say
that walking in the Fear of the Lord
is the mark of a Christian.
This means Joseph Prince
who teaches against the Fear of the Lord
cannot be considered a Christian in the first place.
In a teaching session, Derek Prince said;
to view the 1-minute-30-second video:
“Then it’s very informative
to study the Fear of the Lord in the life of Jesus.
And these are found in Isaiah chapter 11
beginning at the first verse.
“There shall come forth a Rod from the stem of Jesse,
And a Branch shall grow out of his roots.
[that’s the Messiah, the descendant of David.
Now, this is the mark of the Messiah,
the mark of the Son of God.]
The Spirit of the LORD Shall rest upon Him,
The Spirit of wisdom and understanding,
The Spirit of counsel and might,
The Spirit of knowledge
And of the fear of the LORD.”
The final manifestation of the Holy Spirit
that marked out Jesus as the Messiah
and God’s beloved Son was what?
… the fear of the Lord.
And then the next verse says this.
“His delight is in the fear of the LORD.”
Dear brothers and sisters,
surely, we cannot improve on Jesus.
If Jesus, God’s beloved Son, Messiah and Savior,
was marked out by the Fear of the Lord
and if He delighted in the Fear of the Lord,
how can you or I ever dare to say
we don’t need the Fear of the Lord.
It’s a terrible thing to say.”
George Ong’s comments:
By teaching against the Fear of the Lord,
Joseph Prince is categorically denying
that the Fear of the Lord
is one key distinguishing mark of the Lord Jesus.
How can one who denies
that the Fear of the Lord
is a key mark of the Lord Jesus Himself,
be said to be Christ-centred
and a true teacher of God’s word?
What is worse is that
Joseph Prince tried to ‘delete’ the Fear of the Lord
from God’s word
when he deliberately left out exegeting the concept
when he preached on the same text of Isaiah 11:1-3.
As for the details,
please refer to a previous short article,
by clicking on the link below,
In a teaching session, Michael Brown said;
“It is not a servile fear.
1 John 4 tells us that fear has to do with punishment,
the type of servile fear; God’s out to get you.
God’s looking for one wrong thing that you do.
God wants to expose you.
God wants to humiliate you.
One wrong – caught you, caught you, caught you.
No, no, no.
That is a destructive fear.
There is a fear that has to do with punishment.
There is a servile fear.
And there is no fear in love.
Perfect love casts out that kind of fear.
But there’s a holy fear, a reverential fear.
Jesus said Matthew 10:28 to His disciples,
don’t fear those who kill the body but can’t kill the soul.
Rather fear Him who can destroy both soul and body in hell.
Jesus said that.
Hebrews 12:25-29, as everything around us is shaking
and there will be a final ultimate shaking
at the end of this age,
and the only thing that will last is the kingdom of God.
What does it say?
Let us then serve God acceptably with reverence and godly awe
for our God is a consuming fire.
Even a positive description of the Church
in the Book of Acts,
thriving and growing in Acts 9 (v31);
they were walking in the Fear of the Lord.
There is a healthy fear.
There is a reverential awe.
There’s a recognition for who He is and who we are.
Friends, if our God is a consuming fire,
Deuteronomy 4:24 in the Old Testament,
Hebrews 12:29 in the New Testament,
same God, the same God.
Our heavenly Father, who so deeply loves us
through the blood of Jesus
and who receives us by His grace as His sons and daughters,
that God is a consuming fire.
You don’t play games with a consuming fire.
You don’t play games with a holy God.”
George Ong’s comments:
Michael Brown asserts that the Fear of the Lord
is not just an Old Testament idea in Deuteronomy 4:24,
but it is also a New Testament reality
in Hebrews 12:29, Matthew 10:28 and Acts 9:31.
Michael Brown also highlighted
what the fear of the Lord is not
– it is not a servile or slavish fear.
This was also highlighted by Joseph Prince in his sermons.
But, there again, Joseph Prince has told a half-truth.
While Joseph Prince told the half-truth
that the Fear of the Lord is not servile or slavish fear,
he craftily hides the other half of the truth from you
that the New Covenant teaching on the Fear of the Lord
goes beyond worship to actually fearing God.
A case in point is Acts 9:31.
In a teaching session, Peter Tan-Chi said;
“Today, many people don’t understand the Fear of the Lord.
We like to focus on the love of God,
which is very important.
But the Bible talks about the reality of the Fear of the Lord;
it is a healthy fear.
It is not the idea of you shudder;
you’re scared of God.
No, but it has the idea of you don’t want to displease Him.
You honour Him.
You know the consequences of disobeying Him.
So, this idea of fear is very healthy.
The Bible often talks about the double motivation,
the dual motivation of the Christian life.
Love and the fear of God.
In the Old Testament,
we are commanded to love God and to fear Him.
In the New Testament,
we are commanded to love God and to fear Him.
What about you?
Do you have a healthy Fear of the Lord?
Do you have love for the Lord?
These are not in opposition;
they go together.”
George Ong’s comments:
By Peter Tan-Chi’s teaching
that we need to both love God and fear Him,
Joseph Prince’s half-truth teaching is again exposed.
While Joseph Prince teaches that we are to love God,
he teaches against fearing Him.
Peter Tan-Chi’s teaching that we are to fear God
in both the Old and New Testaments
has exposed Joseph Prince’s doctrine
that we are no longer required to fear God
in the Old Testament way
as the fear of God for New Covenant believers
is now reduced to just worshipping Him.
In ‘Exposition of Romans Chapter 11, To God’s Glory,’
Martyn Lloyd-Jones said:
“Let me say finally that every failure
to realize the truth of Romans 11:22
leads to a lack of godliness,
a lack of ‘the fear of the Lord’.
It leads to a lightness, a glibness, a superficiality, a self-contentment,
and finally, this ugly boastfulness.
… How often do you hear people talking about ‘the fear of the Lord’?
But, you see,
those are the terms that are used in the Bible.
Take for instance in that most lyrical book,
the Book of the Acts of the Apostles;
I read this in chapter 9 and verse 31:
‘Then had the churches rest
throughout all Judaea and Galilee and Samaria,
and were edified;
and walking in the fear of the Lord,
and the comfort of the Holy Ghost,
were multiplied’.
Why is this so true of us today,
that there is not much evidence
of ‘the fear of the Lord’?
We all must be bright and breezy,
back slapping and happy.
That is not in the Bible!
‘The fear of the Lord’.”
George Ong’s comments:
Martyn Lloyd-Jones has rightly taught
that the Fear of the Lord
is taught in the New Testament in Acts 9:31.
This has nothing to do with worshipping God per se
that Joseph Prince tries to deceive us with
but fearing Him.
In ‘A Merciful and Faithful High Priest, Studies in the Book of Hebrews,’
Martyn Lloyd-Jones said:
“Noah believed God about the flood,
and then we are told
that he was “moved with fear.”
What a wonderful statement that is.
“Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet,
moved with fear …” (Heb. 11:7).
This does not mean a craven fear.
“Perfect love casteth out fear” (1 John 4:18).
But there is a right kind of fear.
What does the statement in Hebrews mean?
Noah was given a realization, vaguely and dimly,
of the greatness of the glory
and the holiness and the purity of God.
The trouble with us is that we do not fear God.
“There is no fear of God before his eyes,”
says the psalmist (Ps. 36:1).
… We are told about the early Christians in Acts 9:31,
“Then had the churches rest…
and walking in the fear of the Lord,
and in the comfort of the Holy Ghost,
were multiplied.”
“Walking in the fear of the Lord.”
That is Christianity.
Or listen to Paul again:
“Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord,
we persuade men” (2 Cor. 5:11).
George Ong’s comments:
2 Corinthians 5:11 NASB
11 Therefore, knowing the fear of the Lord,
we persuade people…
Martyn Lloyd-Jones highlighted the fact
that Paul had, in fact, taught on the Fear of the Lord
in Acts 9:31 and 1 Corinthians 5:11.
There is no indication
that Paul was alluding to the worship of God
in both of these passages
that Joseph Prince would have us believe.
Since Paul taught against Joseph Prince
on the Fear of the Lord,
he ought to be ashamed of himself
for lying that Paul was his mentor
whom he had learned all his grace theology from.
In a teaching session, Derek Prince said;
Job 28:28.
“And to man God said,
‘Behold, the fear of the Lord,
is wisdom.’”
True wisdom is inseparable
from the Fear of the Lord.”
George Ong’s comments:
One of Joseph Prince frequent themes of his grace theology
is that we must have the wisdom of God.
If true wisdom is inseparable from the Fear of the Lord
that Derek Prince asserts,
the wisdom that Joseph Prince claims to possess and teaches
is nothing but Pseudo-wisdom
as he teaches against the Fear of the Lord.
How could Joseph Prince be said to possess true wisdom
when he constantly teaches that we are not to fear God?
In a teaching session, Derek Prince said;
“Proverbs 10 verse 27 says this,
“The fear of the LORD prolongs days,
But the years of the wicked will be shortened.”
So, listen, if you have the Fear of the Lord in your life
you will live longer than you would have without it.
Doesn’t tell you how long you will live,
but you will live longer than you would have lived
without the Fear of the Lord in your life.
And I’ve lived a long life
and I need some more years of life
because my job on earth is not finished.
And I tell you I’m very careful
to cultivate the Fear of the Lord
because it prolongs life.
Who would turn that down?
The only people who would turn that down
are people who are totally unbelieving or totally ignorant.
You cannot afford to live without the Fear of the Lord.”
George Ong’s comments:
Derek Prince brought to our attention
that the condition of long life
is the Fear of the Lord:
Proverbs 10:27 NLT
Fear of the Lord lengthens one’s life,
but the years of the wicked are cut short.
Since Joseph Prince has not even met the condition
of fearing God
because he teaches against it,
how can he be qualified to teach on long life
and inherit such a blessing
in the first place?
Joseph Prince’s claim that he would live a long life to 120
is pure garbage that is fit for the dumps.

“I was a die-hard of Joseph Prince until God took me out…
For 10 years, I ate, slept and shit on Joseph Prince’s sermon
in my MP3 player.
One day, I found out that I couldn’t listen anymore,
not even 5 minutes…
I thought it was a demon attack, but no.
I only realised that it was God
who took me out of New Creation Church after 5 years
because of the false prosperity gospel.
Thank God…”

“I think there is no difference
between the National Council of Churches of Singapore (NCCS)

They seek to maintain ‘pseudo’ unity

they all fall short and compromise.
This is the sad state of Christianity in Singapore.”

all these years.
Joseph Prince will certainly be accountable to God one day.
Please continue with the good works
and I believe you will certainly not labour in vain.
Pray for all those who have been
and are still being brainwashed till this day
by his false teachings
and REPENT and be saved from hell.”

“I have a friend who has a terminally sick family member.
Her pastor and cell leader came down

But he died and my friend said she didn’t understand
how come he died.
I met her a few years later
and reminded her of the incident,
and she said there was no such incident.
I am thinking what caused her memory block?
She is from New Creation Church.”

“Really appreciate Rev George Ong
for warning all of us
about the false teachings of Joseph Prince.
Matthew 7:13-14
Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat. Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
New Creation Church is so big, crowded and rich
because Man like
and be enticed to listen to feel-good preaching
which is not the truth.”

“Methinks Charles Spurgeon, if he were alive today,
would be doing what Rev George Ong is doing now.
Charles Spurgeon:
“I cannot endure false doctrine,
however neatly it may be put before me…
It makes me indignant when I hear another gospel
put before the people with enticing words,
by men who would fain make merchandise of souls;
and I marvel at those
who have soft words for such deceivers.”
In Galatians 1:8-9, Paul twice pronounced God’s curse
upon those who preached another gospel (like Joseph Prince’s edition).
He didn’t say don’t judge them, love them.
But some New Creation Church members,
maybe indoctrinated and brainwashed,
paralysed in thinking, would say, ‘Don’t judge.’
They had better judge themselves first.”

“When I was with New Creation Church many years ago,
which was my first church,

Thanks to Rev George for standing up

No, they are not wolves

John 10.12-15.ESV
[12] He who is a hired hand and not a shepherd, who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees, and the wolf snatches them and scatters them. [13] He flees because he is a hired hand and cares nothing for the sheep. [14] I am the good shepherd. I know my own and my own know me, [15] just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep.

Essentially, those who choose to stay on in New Creation Church

It’s never about living for Christ and exalting Christ.
False gospel and false Christ promoted in New Creation Church.”

God’s word did not say right believing to get right living.
This is Joseph Prince’s doctrine.”

“This is what is happening in New Creation Church
and any other churches that don’t continue in God’s truth.
2 Thessalonians 2:9-12 ESV
[9] The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of Satan with all power and false signs and wonders, [10] and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. [11] Therefore God sends them a strong delusion, so that they may believe what is false, [12] in order that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

“When I was attending New Creation Church regularly,
I said to myself,
if what Joseph Prince preaches in the pulpit is not true,
there are so many Christians before me and well learned,
surely, he can’t spout nonsense week in week out?
He can smoke me, but wouldn’t someone step out
to point out the inaccuracies
if what he preaches is incorrect?
It didn’t happen until so many years later;
thank you, Rev George Ong!
Now I am beginning to think was I being hinted
when someone told me why don’t I read the Bible myself.”
@joyceliew4352
“@tanky815
I had a similar experience while in New Creation Church.
To me, at that time, I was walking by my sight.
Since the church is so big and well-known internationally
Therefore, it should be the correct gospel.
Yet, within me, I had many questions to enquire
because of unexplained teachings of the word
by Joseph Prince and his other pastors as well.
When I finally took the courage to ask my care group leader,
it was immediately interrupted by him
and were told my question will be privately discussed later.
I was later asked
why did I want to question Joseph Prince’s teachings?
It was from that time I knew something was amiss
and all the while it was the Holy Spirit convicting me
to wake up and return to God.
Today, if anyone here also experiences the same convictions,
know that it is the goodness of the Lord
that wants to lead us to repentance
so that we can return to Him from our rebellion.”

“Joseph Prince should check his own leaders and faithful followers.
How many, despite following the instructions
to take Holy Communion regularly
for health and vanity reasons, ended up sick,
needing surgery and in and out of hospital
in the last 5 years?
Please have the guts to check
and see if Holy Communion is indeed working
for these gullible followers?”
@vijayrem-mn6id
“In his book, Joseph Prince wrote that the Holy Communion
“is more powerful than any medicine, antibiotic, or medical procedure”.
The question arises
why didn’t he or his coterie declare to the world,
boldly and loudly, during the pandemic
that Holy Communion is more powerful than vaccination?
They could have constantly and insistently
reminded the world of their teaching.
That could have been a golden opportunity
for him to seize the crown of glory
and show the world he is THE true apostle and prophet.
Why did he forsake that opportunity?
In fact, one of the New Creation Church preachers
did mention he contracted covid.
Most likely, he had forgotten at that moment
his master’s Holy Communion preaching,
unwittingly poking holes in his teaching.
A crisis does indeed test and reveal his sincerity.”
@WordsofGodThe
“If you still think that Joseph Prince is a great ‘disciple’
or the ‘disciple whom Jesus loved’,
please hear from his own mouth what he has to say here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RlDJEF7PHGo&t=13s
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QugpCLY9Jb8&t=12s
I don’t think we need to say much to CONCLUDE that:
1. he is not a disciple anymore,
2. and, he is not saved at all,
He has said it all from these 2 videos
that he can’t follow and won’t follow the teaching of Jesus,
and that he will change His words,
remove (or hinder) the conviction of the Holy Spirit,
and lie against the Holy Spirit.
What other proofs do we need to confirm that he is an antiChrist?
Obviously, until now he can’t answer and won’t answer
any question or criticism raised against his lies or heresies here.
He can only keep quiet
and hope that his fans will never check any social media
that expose him.
However, I think God has given us enough proofs
to decide if we should follow an antiChrist (like him),
or follow Jesus Christ.
Ultimately, salvation is BY HIS GRACE;
it is also BY OUR CHOICE!
Now what is your choice?”
@joyceliew4352
“What does the Bible say about False Prophets?
God speaks harshly against false prophets,
occult practices, and other means of sorcery.
God describes a false prophet
as one who “presumes to speak in My name
anything I have not commanded,
or a prophet who speaks in the name of other gods” (Deuteronomy 18:20).
In Jeremiah 14:14,
God says these evildoers prophesy lies,
offering “false visions, divinations, idolatries,
and the delusions of their own minds.”
I know Joseph Prince has denied himself as a prophet many times.
He wants us to believe a pastor like him
is different from a prophet in the OT.
Now let’s see what we can understand a prophet roll
and what it does.
“Prophet” in Hebrew = nabi
Strong’s Concordance
nabi: a SPOKESMAN , SPEAKER, PROPHET
Original Word: נָבִיא
Part of Speech: Noun Masculine
Transliteration: nabi
Phonetic Spelling: (naw-bee’)
Definition: a spokesman, speaker, prophet
Joseph Prince is hiding many truths from his congregation
while he washes his hands clean
thinking he could conveniently get away with it
by simply denying he is a prophet.
To God, no matter how many times
or how hard Joseph Prince has washed his hands
thinking he and the rest of his pastors
could get away from these evil lies,
it shall never be cleaned.
It is just temporarily covered up.
Those who still wants to follow his teachings
despite so many warnings, solid, proven testimonies
and solid evidence from Godly pastors
then they shall also fall into the same destruction
God has prepared for them.
Therefore, do not let our hearts be hardened
when God is speaking kindly to us to Repent
from our wicked ways.
Now there’s still time before it is too late.”
@WordsofGodThe
“Joseph Prince says that the Holy Communion
is the FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qe43TFojh-E&t=601s and therefore, you can take it like it is a MEDICINE
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GNNMHaol1gE&t=357s
Obviously, he wants you to believe it totally;
otherwise, why would he take Botox,
take health supplements, take hair treatments,
take advice from his hair stylists,
take branded clothing and shoes,
take good care of himself to look young,
and even take ‘cat walk’ to the pulpit?
Obviously, he takes a lot more ‘self-effort’
to ensure that he always looks good
every time he walks to his pulpit.
However, do you know that immediately
after he promoted his FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH,
he said that you must still take medicines,
see the doctors, or listen to the advice of the doctors
WHEN YOU GET SICK?
What???
It’s a shock to me when I heard that.
I thought if we really have the FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH
or a MEDICINE that can cure all kinds of sickness,
we should never get sick and never need to see any doctor.
Obviously, he is lying to you
when he tries to ‘promote’ his FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH to you.
Let’s assume that you went to a health product company
and really bought such a FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH
or MEDICINE at an exorbitant price
from a good-looking salesman
who convinced you that he has the youthful look
because he drinks it too,
would you just drink it occasionally?
No, of course, you would want to take it every day
because you were totally convinced by him
and you bought it with an exorbitant price.
Now, please think again.
What if that salesman tells you (immediately after you bought it)
that you must still continue to take your medication
because of your conditions
(e.g. high blood pressure, heart attacks, diabetes, or old age symptoms)
and that you must see your doctor
if anything goes wrong too?
I don’t know what you will think,
but I will just throw his FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH
into the dustbin and ask for a refund.
Similarly, if a preacher told me that what he preaches
is a FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH
and I believed him totally
and paid an exorbitant sum of money (to his ‘God’),
I would tell him that his ‘God’ is a liar
and ask for a refund too.
Of course, he would tell us
that we should go and get the refund from his ‘God’;
not from him.
So, in the end, we have only ourselves to be blamed
when such a ‘snake-oil seller’
or false preacher knew how to cover his back
and shift all the blame to his ‘God’
when his ‘God’ could not even perform the miracle
or deliver the FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH effects
as promised in the ‘sales’.
However, I think it is still possible to do something
because, for real commercial transactions,
we can just bring it up to CASE (The Consumers Association of Singapore
which is a non-profit, non-governmental organisation
that is committed towards promoting consumer interest).
However, for the cases
which do not involve commercial deals or direct cheating,
we can only pray that there is such an ‘association’ or ‘council’
which is similar to CASE and that they are willing to help us.”

“I may be a Christian for 40 years
and in your eyes, I don’t mind being a non born again Christian
and one that is with the flesh,
if it means exposing a false teacher like Joseph Prince
that is corrupting and twisting the words of Jesus Christ and his Apostles.
When Jesus went to teach in his father’s place (the synagogue),
he was furious that the merchants
had turned the temple grounds
into a place for the merchants.
New Creation Church did the same precise thing at Star Vista.
With the donations, New Creation Church
didn’t build God a house
and instead seek to invest and profit from it.
Not only that, Joseph Prince didn’t even keep the hall for sermons
as a consecrated place for the Lord alone
but he rent it out to the Drag Queen.
You don’t mix Devil Teaching with Christians
that feel grievous for Jesus
that our Lord’s teaching has been so twisted
into a counterfeit Bible
for you are not of Christ
when you are defending false teachers.
Whether we are flesh or not,
it doesn’t change the tongue-twisting nature of New Creation Church
and the people that it corrupted with its new teachings
against the right teaching of Jesus and his Apostles.
False teachers such as Joseph Prince
are Satan’s agents to lead people away from Jesus.
They seem to preach Jesus, the gospel and the Spirit,
but in reality, they are seducing people
with a counterfeit Jesus, gospel and spirit.
In other words, it is the doctrine of the demons.
By denying sound doctrines of the Bible
and to go into another version of the Bible,
can you still call yourself a follower of Christ and our brothers?
Despites so many evidences?
Joseph Prince has been using the Lord’s name in vain.
In his numerous sermons,
he often says, the Lord says to me, the Lord says to me….
do you think it is true?
Where are the signs to show
that he is a true prophet
and that the Lord really says to him?
Study your Bible! Strengthen your Spirits!

with an equal brutal comment

but he remained unrepentant
and instead became worse
and boasted against God and God’s Words.
He reminds me of Lucifer who thinks he’s smarter than God.
Changed all the original meaning of the Bible to his Satanic heresies.
That is why Joseph Prince doesn’t encourage New Creation Church folks
to read their own Bibles.
He behaves as the ‘un-holy spirit’
for New Creation Church folks
and interpret all the heresies to poison them.
True believers depend on the Holy Spirit
to read and understand the Bible.
So, it’s plain to see New Creation Church
is nothing but a cult that embraces Joseph Prince’s heresies.”

“How do you know others are carnal

Have you given the same “non-carnal” advice

Are you saying unity at all cost
and truth plays second fiddle?
Are you saying confront the false preacher
but do not reveal to the public
and the thousands deceived to alert them,
and keep all deception under wraps?
Are you doing justice to the multitude
that do not realise they are deceived?
Have you prayed about it and told Jesus and Paul
that, for the sake of unity,
they should not have publicly warned of false teachers
for then no one would know false teachers are a fact
and there would be unity?”

Don’t take this propagation of false teaching casually,
especially in this internet age
when lies spread with lightning speed.

Hope you are not implying
that whilst preachers be confronted,
the multitude be kept in the dark, be not alerted;

Joseph Prince is a proven heretic multiple times over

He is evidently biblically not saved
because no one alive by the Spirit of God
would spew out almost countless heresies etc.
He is serving Mammon and not God

He lets LGBTQ performance on the same stage
