@as mathew, @sam mathew, or @all readers.Does any one know or have any clue of who this pastors kid is? That story sounds really scary and unbelievable.It is scary to read the facts, he has mentioned and unbelievable as almost all the pastors i know, are well off.If its true, i would love to help out in some way, with at least that kids education.

Even though many criticize the functioning of CGI,i personally fell it is much better than many other churches in Kerala.This time the election was in very proper way,just remember the elections in Kumbanad and all,(police,cases,stay and many such shameful things happens all there).Our early churches submitted to autority, Apostle Paul controlled or guided churches in Asia.So why cant we accept the leaders from abroad,remember the sacrifice they have taken to bring Gospel in our nation.I also read above someone worrying the ability of Pr.P.J James.He is a spiritual leader,those who have been to his ministry know that.

@sajan. brother you are really funny. i really laughed at ur comment.sorry about that. church is cursed. oh my god. i dnt know where do people get these teaching. growing in cog, i will tell u the problems. 1. its not an ingeniousness church,tat means its always considered as saypinte church nd overseers are considered people who act according to saypinte istam.because of tis most of the pastors nd believers never felt an ownership for the growth of cog. that nt the case in ipc. leaders, pastors & believers consider ipc as their mother church and they are committed for the growth. there is a strong faction in cog, whose only job is to critique any new development of cog. most of the leaders we had cared less to cast any vision for the overall growth of church. some did but their method were not correct but majority didn care. best examples are our mallu overseers in n.india most of them care only to keep their position, and gud name not really the growth of cog. cntd2

pastors kid: thank you for your comment and it is serious challenge
to be taken into consideration by the business minded pastors of
the modern times. they are not looking to god for the heavenly
provisions, but have all the tricks of the world to accomplish their
material goals like the insurance sales people scaring with the
imminent death, if not abruptly insured. they will deliver very
strong message of faith while holding millions of rs worth of assets in bank balance and real estate: and by preaching the hot sermons of faith, then collect more money to their trust fund. your father is trusting
in a living god who provided the needs of his children in the
wilderness. the pentecostal leaders of the old times believed as
your father believed. god bless your father, family and ministry.

@ pastor'skid- Praise god. Your experience is the real model of faith life, which the new generation believers can't believe. it is also much great thing that you are not disclosing your identity to claim greatness. Let all, whose desire of faith life is to reach the final goal, the eternity with Christ, understand the meaning of the life, 'separated' but in the world, fed and maintained by God in all reasonable needs.

@people of God. We as a family continue to serve Lord joyfully waiting the final reward in heaven one day. God was faithful to us. My dad fast every morning, 3-7 days a month, 21,40 days just drinking water for souls and revival in church.we knew our dad had no money pay donation so we studied hard and God Helped us to pass our schools with distinction and secure merit seats in colleges for higher studies. We were hungry, in need, never had any luxuries,ill dressed, lived with little means, still have utilities in house that we been using for more than 2 decades, yet never lacked the passion to serve the Lord. Our desire is to serve the Lord through generations, reaching nations for Christ. Romans 8 and 2 Corinthians 6 serves as the best chapters for our lives as we continue to serve the Lord. I have decided not to write our names as my only intention of this comment is to encourage people to continue serving the lord, irrespective of everything that's happening around us God bless.

@people of god. i read all the criticism against pastors here. can i tell, not all are same.can i speak for my own dad, if you will allow. my dad is serving the lord 4 more than 3 decades. even today we depend on lord for all our daily needs, god has never failed us. my dad got saved and called into ministry at age of 17. since then he has been faithfully serving kog under cog. he has won hundreds of souls, started many mission stations, build or rebuild multiple cog churches.he did all this without making any personal gain for him, not even cared to build a house to live after he retire, no bank balance, beaten by the anti christians(never cared to make money out of story), at times betrayed by church leadership, colleagues, and people yet he never complains. church has given him best pastor award 3 times. his passion is souls,evangelism,peoples deliverance.he is a man of prayer and faith .difficulties taught us to spend hours in gods presence and cry and tell lord everything.cntd 2

@all critique and all believers. cog members, its high time to gather together in prayer, and unity to build the kog. it is nothing wrong to take medicine and preach healing. it is same god who created man, gave him wisdom to make medicine. if not no pentecostal should be nurses or doctors or even work in medical field. i want to request every member of cog world wide to travel to a place in kerala, or in india meet a pastor nd family in person, talk to them hear their stories then verify their stories from other believers and pastors. then directly support them for a year or two with any amount holy spirit lays in your heart. i am saying as i have traveled and met many many pastors in cog who are suffering, but are faithful and passionate in their work for the lord. when i went to north india, stories were heart breaking. i decided to help as much as i can and gather people of god.i dont collect any money, all i want to do is find a person directly and help. harvest is plenty in india

@believer cog. i agree with u on certain things, but not all. i know pr kunjappy from the time he was living in his kudil in valakam. he grew in ministry due to the ministry god has given him. my point is to talk about cog nd not him as i dnt see any use talking abt an outset leader.mst of our pastors in cog are suffering and really in poverty. if u dont trust me, come with me i will take u to all the churches in two weeks and u can make a report. most of our churches have no parsonages, no good halls. pks are suffering for their education. this is not the case in ipc, majority of the pastors are well off because ipc believer give abundantly. gulf and american churches have taken extra care to support their pastors in india. we do not have even one gud bible college for cog, not one educational place why? true i can blame the leaders, but believers cannot wash their hands of it. why not stop criticism and gather up to meet the needs and help. if we cant help, keep quiet.

Believer:What is wrong for a criticism from the right spirit?In a sense the speakings of all the old testament prophets were critique in nature.John the Baptist was another example for it.Apostle Paul was a critic as well.
D.L.Moody was an inexperienced and uneducated shoe-maker.His sermons were patched together from what he heard here and there.He took note of these things and made up his sermons.Once, in a gospel meeting, a middle-aged lady came to him later and criticized him for saying the wrong thing.When Moody heard this, he said to her with tears in his eyes, "You know me the best.You should pray for me." She only knew how to criticize. While her words to Moody were right, her spirit was wrong.Moody was the opposite.His words might have been wrong, but his spirit was right.This should be the attitude of our criticisms.Good tree produces good fruit, corrupt tree produces bad fruit. What we see today in Pentecostalism is a corrupted tree producing only bad fruits!!(Matthew 7

Dear People of God, With much prayers and a burdened heart, i am requesting the entire Pentecostals to leave this evil habit of criticizing each other and focus on evangelism, fasting, praying, and preaching the word. Times are less infront of us. There are hundred thousand of Indian in america to be reached. For sure we should not tolerate adulterous people on our midst, we should throw them out of churches and leadership. However, it should be done within church and not to be publicly through media and news papers. By opening up these arguments to public we are really putting at risk those believer and pastors who are faithfully serving the Lord. Its true there are fake believers, pastors, and ministers at the same time God is the righteous judge and he will surely tell them, depart from me you evil and i do not know you and cast them in fire.So lets pls stop personal criticism and deal all this either inside the church. Else we are itself becoming stumbling block for Gods work

to brother-- we do not want to loose you, please keep writing ! there are few things in 'journalism" that we need to follow-- 1. always try to follow a courteous moderate path in writing, please do not go to extremes, even though you want to because it may hurt many people, not just one. 2. do not refer any writing pointed directly at a person, unless its something positive,because it may turn into 'character-assassination', 3. never use profane or curse words or languages in writing. not everybody can write good or be a good journalist, the whole world knows that! a lot of people can scribble things and that we know when we read them! bj-journal has not published my article too, which i don't really care, because i got other papers to write! so keep up your talent in writing-- we don't want to miss you, good luck, god bless !!!

need of spreading the gospel through the Believers Journal, because
the readers are believers. I am sorry that some of your comments
were not published; some of mine were not published because they were
exposing some of the old traditions being blindly followed in the
Episcopal Churches. Please don't stop writing comments. If there are
no comments, many will not read the Believers Journal.

brother the real need of today: thank you for your response. let us
all start praying very fervently to send a revival and new vision
in the hearts of the believers to have a new burden and passion to
spread the good news. also, we will have to discourage the business mentality of the christian leaders, and re-direct those
people landing here every three or six months to deliver the same
old sermons; tell them to go to north india or africa to preach the
gospel. by the vast number of religious leaders landing here
regularly from all the denominations, it seems like america is the second nineveh. i am deeply convinced that god is going to use
the believers journal as a tool in a spiritual awakening among the
believers. brother, keep on writing, and we will see the day of harvest one day.

the real need of today (February 5, 2012)
@AS Mathew. Thank you for understanding, the pain with which i was sharing the matter. I am rallying my friends, believer, and pastors for the same cause. Why dont you also start talking about this in churches, youth meeting, and make people aware of the need of the hour, at least in your sphere of influence.

TRUTH: I salute you for your forthright talk warning the brain washed and blinded followers of the preachers and prophets. The Catholic Church didn't allow the believers to read the Bible, so the Church traditions and the religious hierarchy totally controlled them. Now, believers are reading the Bible and coming out of the old and rusted chain. What is happening at the extreme end at the Pentecostal denominations in India is the mind control of the religious leaders. The belivers will have to open the Bible and study it with an open heart with prayer so that the Holy Spirit will guide and reveal the divine secrets to them.

@Kunjacha. It is true we serve a soveriegn God and he can use any way to do what he wishes. Read and study the bible carefull then you will understand. God love to do everything through his peoplpe and then when they dont listen to him, People do whatever they want and God will never be fulfilled. It goes the same with Sould winning, church growth, and everything. Study the words and read the word. God will guide u in your life to understand the whole counsel of God. Praying for you.

@Kunjachan. Understanding the context is not trusting in own strenght.It is called common sense and literacy. I grew up in Pentecost, but now that i have started studying the word systematically, i started understanding how much non-sense is being taught by our preachers, claiming on the Holy Spirit. i am not talkking genuine pastors, i am talking about people who will preach any point to make their sermon and say the Holy Spirit led. Holy Spirit is not only active when you are in the pulpit, the same Holy Spirit will guide when you study and prepare messages. It takes atleast 10 hours to prepare a good sermon, with prayer and study tools. Sadly we rarely have any preachers who do that in PEntecost and moreover, believers are not ready to accept such preachers as most of the time they will not hear what they liek and pleasing to their ears. That is why people like all thes fake prophets, beleiver and pastors shine so much in the church for new revelations all the time.

the real need of today: i do agree with you 101%. we have gone too far to the extreme in exalting many man-made holiness and blindly worshipping traditions. it is very very true as you have stated, if jesus is coming to our worship service, the holiness folks will not give him a place to sit down due to his different dress. another point you have stated is an urgent issue. our young people are not motivated to come forward in developing their talents and spiritual gifts because the older saints want to control everything. whether it is in the local church of national level, some sitting at the top don't want to shift the location of their seats to a new comer. that is pure selfishness, but they will not admit it.

Cond:- Is it Biblical? " Let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver" 2 Cor 9:7. Giving money to have their name on the wall is simply based on "necessity and pressure". On the other hand, if the name is not displayed, many won't give and the building won't be constructed. According to the communist ideology " the end justifies the means". How to make the proper conclusion of this situation?

BROTHER KUNJACHAN: You have pointed out your finger to a very urgent
spiritual crisis gradually taking over the religious world. Please
don't misunderstnad my comment, I am not talking about any individual
but talking about the situation as a whole.
In my younger days, after the convention, when the love offering
was counted, it was always far less and hardly any currency but
only coins. Even the spiritually high-minded person will look for
the coins to put in the offering bucket.
Then somebody will take the chicken egg, and put in an auction.
The 25 naya paisa egg is sold for Rs. 3.00, then that person will
give back the same egg, and somebody else will auction that for
Rs. 4.00. The financial balance sheet of the convention will turn
from red to blue very fast. Putting the name of the people on the wall contributing more than Rs. 50000.00 is the same technique.

"i think you are just over reacting" most churches publish in their church records as to who gave how much for what purpose and the church -members see and read it atleast in the general-body meeting. this verses only proves that you won't be rewarded and nothing else. i don't go by word meaning- contd_1

Contd....Appointed leaders in all sectors of believers must remember that their appointment is to teach and guide the God's chosen,by renewing of their mind always, to qualify for the rapture; not for the personal boasting, comforts and enjoyments. It is really a heavy cross loaded on them. but most of the leaders ignore this fact , give chance to Satan to make the sectors of believers a subject to laugh and shame among the worldly religions, blocking many from getting saved by Jesus in the real sense. They are blocking the Holy spirit too.in this situation all efforts under the name of gospel is added to shame. Please let all leaders to sit together to find out the falls and to have a renewal of mind to reach the real goal. Pr. kunjappy has nothing to bother on the present criticism. when he get right god will use him more effectively than he was. we pray.

@ 2nd'thotz. I don't think anybody is crucifying pr. kunjappy. really he is a man with proper capacity to organise. But when he declared the names of those contributing above Rs.50000/- will be written on the walls of the complex to exhibit for remembrance for generations to come, it was directly against the word of God, matt.6:1-4. This matter was pointed out to pr. kunjappy by email and write-ups,but not cared.also he is always preaching and writing about the need of perfect holy and separated Christian life of believers. but those are very liberal in these matters were also accepted as his right hands and projected them. by these he ignored the real fight in the spiritual world. being an appointed man by God to lead a sector of the believers, when the word of god was ignored, satan took the chance and claimed him to fall, making disappointment among the believers.

brother sam thomas: your comment was very timely. who is preaching
about the second coming of christ? who is concerned with the
evangelization? the church world lost those things, and it seems
like we are living in heaven on this earth; and adding up more and
more things for eternity on this earth. by watching all this religious shows of
arrogance in all the denominations, god is simply laughing at us.
we blame the idol worship, but many of these shows are turned like
"idol worship" but we will not admit that reality.

it is learnt here even the poorest pastor was crushed to contribute to the office complex fund of cog. Actually was the construction of a 'star' office complex(like "let us make a name for ourselves" gen.11:4), essential at this time where all are preaching the second coming of Jesus Christ is very near? this is the time to spend as much money as possible for preaching the true gospel, not with the presence of costly film people,but by the anointed God's men and to help the poor & needy. when the stage for proclamation of gospel is decorated by the socially prominent personality they will be the attraction point of the audience and the presence of the Holy Spirit is ignored. By this the time and money spend goes in vain. Projecting the human personality by words and photographs of preachers is another great hurdle to gospel. deivam thante mahathwam mattarkkum vittukodukkukayillallo!!

As we see in Acts 2 vs 45 and Acts 4 vs 32 to 37,says that the followers of Jesus shared and sold properties to give out to who ever it is needed.It can be for any need for the kingdom of god.whoever give will be blessed,he never forced any one to give.

They have tried to do nothing, except be happy with their salaries given by sayippu and act holy. Some of them have come to states multiples times and have amassed huge wealth for north india and use for personal expenses. Some others they prefer doing nothing, than keeping their chair and position safe. Massive amount of people are coming to the lord daily in North India, what are those COG leaders in North doing. Some of them have been in those position for decades, looking after few churches. i am sorry for my tone, but it really breaks my heart. Also i want to talk about those convention preachers who always condem projects and charities. How could you preachers say those, when you all have lakhs and lakhs of rupees invested in different avenues.

@Sam. Listen please give me your number. I want to talk to you. Pr. Kunjappy is corrupt, there is no second opinion about it. He stayed in power with the support of gundas&corrupt believers.I can name them all but dont want to.If needed i will. However, not all pastors who supported him are corrupted. Many respected him and obeyed him as their elected leader. Pls dont speak like balan, generalizing every one. Jesus,disciples,apostles etc hanged out with prostitutes, tax collectors, samaritans, but was he sinning with them, did he approve their sinful ways.No. It is right and just to support a selected official, so please dont call every one corrupt. Pr Kunjappy was not ready to correct his actions, so he got what he deserved. All he have done for COG before power was feeding some pastors during convention and conduct service with the presence of police at puthupally COG. He started aiming administration, when no church was ready to take him as pastor.However,he was an anointed man
@Sam. Listen please give me your number. I want to talk to you. Pr. Kunjappy is corrupt, there is no second opinion about it. He stayed in power with the support of gundas&corrupt believers.I can name them all but dont want to.If needed i will. However, not all pastors who supported him are corrupted. Many respected him and obeyed him as their elected leader. Pls dont speak like balan, generalizing every one. Jesus,disciples,apostles etc hanged out with prostitutes, tax collectors, samaritans, but was he sinning with them, did he approve their sinful ways.No. It is right and just to support a selected official, so please dont call every one corrupt.

@cog well wisher&all cog people. all the cog pastors and believers should learn from us. we support our pastors very well and have taken great care to build house of worship and parsonage. when we honored our pastors, who work for the lord. god has blessed us indeed.look at how many full time paid pastors we have in usa earning from $2000-$6000. we happily support them.we have brought so many pastors on r1.i dont think cog has even one full time paid pastor. most of cog members in usa either worship in ipc, ag or sharon.cog pastors who came here decades ago have done nothing or very little for cog. churches like queens,ebenezer,atlanta,east dallas,etc itself can support hundreds of pastors in india. we in ipc we fight, we disagree, we have politics but that does not stop us from serving lord and supporting gods work. if i am wrong please visit cog parsonages in kerala, most of them look like one bedroom "outhouse".

the first time i spoke with a translator was at grace bible college
in 2006. the students came from all the states and foreign countries,
students who spoke more than 40 different languages were in the
audience. after those great spiritual experiences of life, when i
landed in the u.s., i felt very moody. if we start visiting the
missionary fields of north india, it will totally change our visions
about the ministry as a whole. we can feel a minute dose of heaven
while meeting those delightful people; some of them don't have
a good pair of clothins or a full meal, but they are very happy in
the lord. we must do everything and anything possible to spread the
good news of the gospel to as many people as possible, which will
make us very happy and our brothers working in the field.

meet those people who are working through greater struggles and

i dnt know the salary scale in middle east. so let me talk about usa. on an average,almost 80% of pentecostal family in usa makes a minimum of 65k-80k annually. that means a tithe of $6500-8000 dollars annually.so, what if we decide to just separate $500-$1000 of tithe to support the ministry in india at large&use the remaining tithe of $6000-$7000 to support our church in usa. even, that small amount of $500-$1000 annually from each family can bring a total change in the living, and working conditions of our pastors in india. therefore, they will get more time to concentrate on the ministry than trying to spend time and effort to feed their own family. i dnt know if i can go &live in india, due to many reasons. the least i thought i can do is to pray and support those suffering pastors and believers. lets think big people of god. most of us started with nothing, but god has blessed us so much,that we forget we are blessed to bless others, otherwise we should never have become xtian.

He is still a servant of god plus he is the overseer. Give him some lax brothers. He may have used some gondas for his own personal safety. What is wrong with that? Even if he is lakhpathy what is wrong with that?

During the final message in COG Pr Kunju was saying that there was zero balance when he took charge. He was promising things with the Bible as well. However, the truth is there was more than 5olakh rupees in fixed deposit when he took charge as overseer. Where did that money disappear, if he claims that there was zero balance. He acted like a dictator through out his tenure as overseer with the strength of gundas and some forces from perumbavor. Now COG Pastors have clearly shown that, they do not need the influence of an external corrupt black mailing agency to outset corrupt leaders unlike IPC.

@kvphilip You are calling me wicked for what? What are you? Saint? Dont try to quote verses from bible and tell me to read it. When I talked about Kunjappy, it hurt your feelings right? That is pretty natural for someone who so attached to a person like him. You are like those fake preachers who like to quote verses from bible and have no real life of their own. There plenty in India as well in USA.

bro. k v philp how long you know pr. kunjappy. i do believe you and sam are correct, i have only one question, if you are real and preach against ornaments is it right to keep pr. p r baby in your church and allow him to preach in general convention, is it right to allow br. samkutty (ithratholam uyarthya deyvathunu stotharam)lic in the church for business. is it right to put banner of josco hospital in the convention ground and prach about a healing jesus. most of these preachers are came with a quilt to the cog and leaving with a ship or multiple ships. is this is what we call role models. if any church is affiliated with cog the pastors of the church should not be in any official position of cog. can you please find out pr. shibu's church is affiliated or part of cog. if it is affiliated can he resign from all positions, if not can you please officially handover the church in thiruvalla to cog. br. k v philip can you please work on this and let the forum know about this. please

Arunraj:- I truly understand your situation. But Bible does not allow anyone to be your role model whosoever it may be. It was impossible indeed even to those 12 disciples to fully receive Jesus as their role model even after following Him for three and a half years. Yet, when Christ became the "The Life giving spirit" at His resurrection He was blown into His disciples as Life.(1Cor.15:45) At the very moment onwards the disciples stopped the concept of "following" but began "growing" in Christ. Without knowing the difference between the spirit and the soul, we will never be able to experience Christ as life in a practical way. It is too shallow to say even Christ is our role model while He Himself is our life. "I am crucified with Christ; It is no longer I who live but it is Christ who lives in me."(Gal.2:20)

pr.m.k and pr. pcc(ranny)were two pastors who were never critcized by the pente anti corruption squad(pacs, perumbavor). the reason is very simple, its nt bcoz they were holy. its bcoz they agreed to the pacs terms and conditions like giving every council secrets after every meeting, banning the preachers pacs hated. i have been listening to pr. pcc and i guess he has gone around the world with just 5 messages which is on "your living manna". then, how did he get all these meetings. very simple, pacs had a great deal in that.
pr. pcc(ranny)have convinced the masses that his massive house was built by the donation of few people. thats alright, god bless those families. but has he given tithe to cog for all his donations, has he filed taxes according the indian governemnt rules.
to clean the cog from corruption we need to keep few more people out of power like pr pcc(ranny), pr. pgm(sleeping giant),pr.cct,pr. ppk,pr.benz a(motive good but nt method),pr.shibu(m

dear all,
its heart breaking to see guardians of faith/pastors sleeping in corruption and waking up without power, pleading to stay in power during their final message time in the general convention. cog pastors have proved that, we do not need the pente anti corruption squad(who blackmails, and writes against people who dont listen to them) to keep a corrupt leader out of power.
its true there is balance in the balance sheet presented to the public, but that does not match the balance in the bank. there is no doubt pr. kunjappy wanted to see the progress of cog, but he was acting democratic but was autocratic through out his tenure and totally defending the henious acts of his secretrary and charity director.
inorder to show that he is a great leader, he always shouts,yells, and verbally abuse fellow pastors, who serve god and cog inspite of all the challenges and difficulties they face. i dont deny there are corrupt(only a minority) pastors, b

brother oommachaeon: i am happy that the pastors of all denominations are enjoy better standard of living, because when we
follow christ, even though we may have to bear the cross and drink
tears, later on we are blessed and our posterity. but now the vast
majority in the ministry have gone too far to the
camp of material blessings, loving the material things and
pleasures of this world. some ministers are not touching the earth,
but either in the car or plane. they can't advance in this game
plan, if the believers won't pamper them blindly. if there is a
stipulation that the ministers of all denominations must carry a cross and walk one year
all across the state before the ordination, then how many will be coming forward for the
ministry? a few are called and ready to suffer for the cause of
calvary, but now the majority are jumping into the ministry for the
respect-prosperity and other good material thin
