Sure sounds like it. And it is clear from his first post that he believes in the false prosperity gospel, and it is also clear that Episkopos and Laurina liked his post for the sole reason that he was siding with Episkopos. Which is always the basis of how they determine whether to like anyone.. It is very telling.
And this coming from someone who likes the incoherence of somebody like Amigo. You are a hypocrite of the highest order. And many will agree with me on that assessment because they can tell a hypocrite when they see one.
And you are so unloving and harsh to any newcomer here...using them as a foil against your religious hubris. You only care for yourself.
How you and Amigo spewed religious ideology at that atheist guy...confirming WHY he is an atheist. I would be an atheist too if I had to listen to your vapourings for any length of time.
About preaching the Gospel, following Acts, the keyword is REPENT.
Acts 2:38 And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Acts 3:19 Repent therefore, and turn back, that your sins may be blotted out,
Acts 8:22 Repent, therefore, of this wickedness of yours, and pray to the Lord that, if possible, the intent of your heart may be forgiven you.
Acts 17:30 The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent,
Acts 20:21 testifying both to Jews and to Greeks of repentance toward God and of faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.
Acts 26:19 “Therefore, O King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision,
Acts 26:20 but declared first to those in Damascus, then in Jerusalem and throughout all the region of Judea, and also to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, performing deeds in keeping with their repentance.

A false balance is an abomination to the Lord (in either direction)
We often overcorrect and sometimes it's even needed to bring a balance. The Key is being led by the Spirit. The Pharisees were a good example. Israel was destroyed for forsaking the law and not keeping the sabbath. The Pharisees came along and kept the sabbath to the point of killing Jesus because He didn't keep it their way.
Except that when I "like" any post of Amigo's it is not for the reason that he sides with me on anything. It is because I agree with him about the ecumenical interfaith phenomena that is not just causing the church to fall away, but IS in itself a falling away/apostasy and dreadful deception. All the false doctrines and methods that came before it in recent decades have only led up to this (combined with too much material ease and comfort in general that has deceived many). And Amigo has a very good grasp of doctrine and God's word, in my opinion. I know many tune him out because he repeats himself a lot, but if anyone takes the time to listen carefully he often has some excellent nuggets of truth I find.
I'll tell you what I believe is harsh and unloving.........drawing someone to oneself - instead of lifting up Christ so that He can draw them to Himself. And it is a mistake to try and intellectually persuade or prove to someone that Christ is true......being born of the Spirit is a matter of the heart/spirit, not the carnal mind. We would only make a nominal Christian out of someone through the carnal mind. That man is too much in his intellect with these things, and needed reminding that he has a heart and to seek the Lord that way. An appeal of the gospel needs to be made to the heart/spirit. The only proof there is, is the witness and revelation of the Spirit when a person receives Jesus. It is through the foolishness of preaching......the foolishness of God:
1Co 1:17-25
For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.
For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.
Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.
For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:
But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;
But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

A hypocrite criticizes someone for what they do themselves. You need to learn this if you want to really know yourself.
I am not soliciting any likes. I speak the truth. And if I get likes it's because people agree with Jesus and God, the truth and the bible.
You will not understand this...but you DISAGREE fundamentally with the bible, Jesus, God and the truth. When you get likes it's because of your defense of the religious ego. People like Amigo\s posts because they SOUND nice...they have bible speak in them...OUT OF CONTEXT. So those who can't discern will agree.
I post the words of Jesus and you say it sounds Catholic, (Receiving a righteous man or prophet) which to you is barely one step above atheist. You don't even acknowledge the possibility that Jesus died for others who claim Him as their Saviour. That's how far afield you are.
And that's just the tip of the iceberg.
I also disagree with the inter-faith movement. But you extremists judge from your own religious bent, so I am just as against you lot...the hypocrites.
It's like that other guy here who has a ministry AGAINST Mormons and Calvinists. If I post something that is beyond his understanding he immediately says I am either a Mormon or a Calvinist.
You and Amigo are so new age, that you think anything that is beyond you has to come from there...because you admire it so.
If you could read and were honest, you would see that I am the one lifting Jesus up...you are tearing Him down.
You are against the words of Jesus. Because you are anti Him.
Being a fool is not a good thing. And you and Amigo eschew any kind of intelligent discourse because you have not yet understood the IQ is not evil...it's just that you have given up any critical thinking in order to hold the preposterous positions you hold.
God gave you a brain, and a mind is a terrible thing to waste.
I can't explain to you what the mind of Christ is...you would agree only in principle...lip service, like you are not AGAINST the fear of the Lord, in theory. It's all dead.
But for others....
Having the mind of Christ is the willingness to suffer the loss of all things to uplift the truth. It centers on the honour and glory of the eternal God who doesn't change. The mind of Christ is a different mind. Full of mercy AND truth. All the ways of God are mercy and truth. In Christ mercy and truth have come together in one.
I don't care if you agree or not...you have proven your words to be worthless based on your carnal attitude and lack of intelligent reasoning. So you can't come over to the truth...you can't be converted into salvation. You are too indoctrinated. . You possess neither mercy nor truth.

The Book of Remembrance is not an escape for hypocrites. These are already judged, No, the Book of Remembrance is for those who truly fear the Lord...and who have an actual understanding of the truth...real knowledge of holiness and righteousness...real discernment. But these don't quite measure up to God's standard for the Bride of Christ. They SERVE the saints and the Lord. So we could say that they are like bridesmaids. There is the Bride...and the guests...but ALSO the bridesmaids.
This is a great comfort for those who recognize the truth and fear God, but who have not experienced the deeper walk of the overcomer in Christ.
The video is meant as a comfort to God's people...who place themselves in the sphere of God's mercy.

You are speaking absolute nonsense about me, as you so often do. I'll leave you to the Lord.
All who are not written in the book of Life are cast into the lake of fire. There is no book of remembrance in the new testament.
You are confusing judgments. The house of God will be judged 1,000 years BEFORE the general judgment of the world.
If you only had some reading skills... I wouldn't have to lead you around your faulty understanding ALL THE TIME.
lol. Judgment has been going on with the house of God since the church began....so that we will not be judged (condemned) with the world. This age now is the allegorical thousand years of Christ's reign, which is the time of His longsuffering that we are to account as salvation....meaning THIS age of grace. Or didn't you know He has been reigning already? The judgment of the world is coming very soon now.You are confusing judgments. The house of God will be judged 1,000 years BEFORE the general judgment of the world.

I see a church with our Lord's name on it, and the church is asking for donations.
Should I not donate?
A strong attachment to money is the reason why some people refuse to give tithes or donations, and this same attachment can cause them to speak negatively about every church of Jesus, they encounter.
They're the descendants of the ones who brought charges against Jesus.
Read the parable of sheep and goat.

The Lord instructs us to have no confidence in the flesh and the fruit of the flesh. We are to follow Christ not men.
Can you not hand out help to the poor in need directly. Rather then pass your money through a system, where the wealthy take a bite out of it?
We have this treasure in earthen vessels.
