Preachers & Plagiarism

[NotTheRock]

I saw a YouTube video of a preacher talking about "God's timing". Nice speech. A bit later I saw another preacher give the same speech. In neither speech did the preachers credit another for it. I'm guessing that this is very common. Is it?

Now i sure aint seen any of those vidoes .
But i sure by grace have seen .
DOES that really
IS that really what bothers you .
IF EVEN what they said is true
IF IT IS TRUE , WHO WAS IT that even revealed it to them .
IT WOULD BE GOD . SO THEN , LETS GIVE GOD THE GLORY and not men .
Of course if the vidoes are that false stuff i would in no way support it .
BUT the only reason i wrote this to you is
WHY is your concern so much on giving the credit , glory , reconginitoin to any man .
IF IT TRUE , JUST THANK GOD THEY ARE SPEAKING IT .

Using another's sermon and pretending you wrote it is wrong. Jesus's followers are supposed to be humble. Sharing the sermon is fine but give credit to the person who wrote it.

Probably an AI sermon.

Can't the Holy Spirit lead many preachers to give sermons on the same topic? I would expect it.

There is one body, and one Spirit.

I have heard that there are pastor/preacher clubs or organizations that provide readymade sermons. Not sure how true it is.

Of course. I think it's great. I also believe that preachers should give credit when sharing another's sermon. That's all.

Probably. Makes sense.

They should give credit . NO doubt about it . BUT TO GOD . This sheep knows what is in man
and beleive you me when i say , ANY GOOD that cometh outta me , any truth
It aint coming of the flesh or of man . IT cometh Of GOD . Allow me to introduce us
to what is known as the best tasting and healthiest pie for a man to eat , HUMBLE PIE . GET SOME and enjoy every bit
And let all give all the GLORY for anything good TO GOD . I know from whence i came
and i know that even now trapped in the flesh there is NO GOOD thing present .
BUT THE HOLY GHOST IS PRESENT , TO GOD I OWE ALL , MAY I SAY TO GOD WE OWE ALL .
ITS JESUS PREACHING TIME in the building . AND if any does desire to glory , LET IT BE IN GOD .

Congressional organizations of Church's usually keep a message consistent across Sunday Schools and Preachers. So, if this is a month to increase funds, an email is sent to all to preachers on this subject, with accompanying talking points. Nothing new, it been going on as long as I can remember. I used to hear Baptist preachers every Sunday preach about the same message on different radio and tv churches. There is no plagiarism here, just planned messaging.
