But the Brethen of course have used the camera for another reason altogether. But now the claim to frame is to show others "How To",When in fact it displays how not to,Hence making them[the preacher] an expert.I only woder how Paul could have made it so far without the help of the camera?I guess Paul had to trust God.Where are God's Men?Really I think these poor fools are seeking the glory that comes from men.It really is just that simple.The failure of these men to see this is overwheming,I have known quite a few who have gone the way of the camera, For those who used the Camera, WHY?Is this your proof you will used before God to show Him your works of righteouness?Is this your potection?your safety?After all we see you, your lack, your error,But We never see you Preach the Cross Of Christ1corht1:18, All we see is you in the center of the shot,showing off for the camera.

This seems to be the reason why some go out, for the pat on the back,or the praise of men, This nevers brings God Glory, He will not share His glory with any man.I hope your suggjestions were to be helpful only,The internet is full of these self called preachers, They never offer any hope to the Lost , Only take great joy in condeming the lost in a public way.Shame on them!Now A preacher should make an open stand againist sin and should rebuke all that think it does not matter, But God's Man will be balanced in His Message as in Romans 2:4,The Whole counsel Of God, Men die in their SIns and they love to have it so. Preachers of The Cross Of Christ are to stand in the WAY and Declare that this is not so,Trying to snatch them out of the fires of Hell, We need no more pictures.

Let us ever be mindful of the motive behind preaching to people in public. It should be purely obedience to The Lord and also, having the mind of Christ - "not willing that any should perish", a earnest concern for souls on their way to eternal damnation. Maybe we should not be photographing ourselves when we preach. If we don't do it, we might not be inclined to stand back and admire our own (albeit feeble) attempts in serving Christ. Just somewhat of a "check" to becoming vainly puffed up in our own mind. Well said brother McRae. Let us ever be mindful of the motive behind preaching to people in public.

I visted these young mens web site,low and behold what did I see.I saw these same two men who dress in thier gay apparell dressed in three piece suits.No sunglasses,no shorts,no t shirts.I could'nt believe my eyes.They must have two stlye's.one for the preacher's they are trying to impress,and one for the Lord when they preach for him.When I first meant them I really thought that they where poor street preachers,they had on thier best clothes.Now that I have seen thier website I think they have been less than honest.I thought that maybe they didn't know any better,But after reading some of thier materials I know that they do.I hope all men who decide to be used of God to preach His Holy Word would realize that God has called us.We preach for His Majesty The Lord Jesus Christ.not some man but for The Lord God.how dare you preach and you don't wear your best.If you would better clothes to take out the little woman .than you do when preaching for the Lord ,shame on you repent.Brother tim brother Ron,This is well done.Could i add a little?

This article should be a wake up call for us all to examine what we are doing and what wisdom there is in what we are doing. We do have an effect on all other street preachers because we are all lumped in together. Let us make the Lord pleased by presenting ourselves as ambassadors of Jesus and as his children. Let us not bring shame to the name of Christ. Thank you Brother McRae for this article. It will cause me to examine myself as well. In Christ, Brother David Ickes Brother McRae, well done.
