We Can't Allow Pastor Zeke's Sermons to be Plagiarized -
11-07-2021, 05:13 PM
A problem is creeping across the U.S. where lesser preachers copy down the words, gestures and jokes of great pastors and pretend they themselves wrote the sermons. Especially, these lessor preachers are plagiarizing sermons of our own Pastor Zeke. This is an outrage.
We at Landover Baptist pay big bucks for Pastor Zeke and his staff. This staff outlines each week's sermon, including the scripture, which Pastor Zeke then assembles in detail and delivers in a mesmerizing performance. Satan and his sin leave the building defeated.
We cannot allow these assets to be stolen and used to fill collection plates in other churches. I hope there is a law somewhere to prevent this.

Is there some way to copyright the Bible (including the godless ones) so that Pastor Zeke can take legal action more easily for this type of fraud?
No court in the land would rule against Landover in doing this, surely? Landover is known as God's only True Christian place on Earth after all.

Pastors need to keep a proper perspective on these things. I'm all for saving sinners by any means possible, but not at the cost of violating intellectual property rights.
If the Holy Spirit doesn't inspire original ideas for a preacher's sermons, he can always can always buy canned sermons from the many fine Christian publishing houses that sell them, such as CSS Publishing.

When I was a young boy, our pastor at Podunk Bible Baptist was Methuselah Graves. He held so strongly to Deuteronomy 4:2 that his sermons consisted exclusively of scripture reading. The old man had no sense of showmanship, and I frequently found my thoughts drifting. Jesus didn't come into my life until later on in my young adulthood, after my scandalous days. If my pastor had been Ezekiel Flint when I was a child, I know that He would have touched me early and often, whether I wanted Him to or not.

Amen, Brother Dnow. In the free market of ideas, the best product commands the highest price. Either that or they work for it. Pastor Zeke frequently has odd jobs available for those without adequate financial resources.

Just a caveat for future members: the Pastors are busy and there's no guarantee you'll be put alone in a room with one of them, however there is a bunkhouse for transitory visiting ministers that kids can be placed with.

What about slide shows? I've seen some quite good "magic lantern" displays but, considering the age of such devices, the material is very unlikely to be original. It would be possible to make new glass slides with moving elements to highlight the pitfalls facing Christians today, in fact that would be an interesting project, and the lanterns are still available. They don't really wear out, being of solid brass construction.
There is always a downside where technology's involved. In this case it's demons. Whether or not a magic lantern is used to explain Scripture or as a visual aid to get The Message across, other applications exist and remain available. Because of the traditional pigments and non-electric light sources employed for effects lighting, a very intense phantasmagoria can be achieved to heighten the psychedelic experience so beloved of demons. And the hardware is not difficult to find. Around the 1 minute mark in the clip [above] an example is shown. Here are two stills.
The lens [left] projects a spinning roundel [right] onto the wall, psychedelic efforts tending not to have screens, in this example two glass slides rotated for a kaleidoscope effect. An alternative is to sandwich two round glass slides together and dribble intense pigments down between them as they rotate. This is what opens minds to demonic ideas, in an enclosed room, everyone "on the stuff" hallucinating wildly and eager to become human screens standing in front of the magic lantern looking groovy.
Would using a magic lantern set up with Bible slides (whether antique or newly made and considering that when looking for supplies this psychedelic stuff is the most likely to be found) be a benefit for The Ministry? Or would the risk of curiosity about sandwiched oil-wheels and vivid dyes be too great, considering how demons found such easy ingress to souls by way of minds transfixed with the vibrant and dynamic display? I hope my question is not out of place.

As I'm in constant communication with JF Christ through the Holy Spirit who is Jesus, I consider all plagiarism of my Sermons to be blasphemous and blasphemous against the Holy Spirit. That's Matthew 12:31 to y'all even contemplating any theft against my immaterial and immaculate rights. And taking into account Matthew 5:28 that also becomes blasphemy against the Holy S.
I'll be seeing you all plagiarists from the lookout point, how you writhe in Hell and Satan slowly thrusts his barb-wire-clad tallywacker into your worn and scabby rectal tunnels. That'll be a sight to cherish. AND I'll cherish it for eons.
However. If you're willing to pay handsomely, you may recite some of my best Sermons from you less perfect pulpits but ONLY with appropriate citations. Fees (in the gold standard or platinum or palladium, silver won't do) for purchase and hired material available from my 14-yo Filipino houseboys during those times when they're not too busy but recuperating from my powerful revival moments.
Here is a partial list from just a few scripture verses:
Hypocrites (Matthew 24:51), The Unforgiving (Mark 11:26), Homosexuals (Romans 1:26, 27), Fornicators (Romans 1:29), The Wicked (Romans 1:29), The Covetous (Romans 1:29), The Malicious (Romans 1:29), The Envious (Romans 1:29), Murderers (Romans 1:29), The Deceitful (Romans 1:29), Backbiters (Romans 1:30), Haters of God (Romans 1:30), The Despiteful (Romans 1:30), The Proud (Romans 1:30), Boasters (Romans 1:30), Inventors of evil (Romans 1:30), Disobedient to parents (Romans 1:30), Covenant breakers (Romans 1:31), The Unmerciful (Romans 1:31), The Implacable (Romans 1:31), The Unrighteous (1Corinthians 6:9), Idolaters (1Corinthians 6:9), Adulterers (1Corinthians 6:9), The Effeminate (1Corinthians 6:9), Thieves (1Corinthians 6:10), Drunkards (1Corinthians 6:10), Reviler (1Corinthians 6:10), Extortioners (1Corinthians 6:10), The Fearful (Revelation 21:8), The Unbelieving (Revelation 21:8), The Abominable (Revelation 21:8), Whoremongers (Revelation 21:8), Sorcerers (Revelation 21:8), All Liars (Revelation 21:8)

As I see it, there are two types of Pastor:
1. God's Pastor who hears the direct Word of God, e.g. Pastor Zeke. You know you're getting the real deal as they are proof of Psalms:12:6 The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
2. The Cut 'n Pasta who gets some generic inspiration from what he vaguely remembers from Bible School, some old movie, Little House on the Prairie, random Bible verses, etc. These sources are quite limited and so it's not surprising that the same phrases keep appearing (unlike his congregation who keep disappearing.)

Well the Bible is a lot shorter when you cut out all the parts where God tells us to hate and kill, or does it Himself. Frankly I'm surprised these fluffy bunny plagiarist pastors don't just put on an episode of Veggie Tales and call it a day.

Let's get down to brass tacks here. Who exactly is stealing Pastor Zeke's sermons? I only attend his sermons so I myself cannot say I know the guilty parties. We do know who is suspicious.
One is Creflo Dollar. Zeke has always been a thorn in the side of Creflo. Creflo wants money and he knows Pastor Zeke is the reining champ of bringing in cash.
Then there is Joyce Meyer. She is so ambitious she would throw her mother under the bus. If someone can stand to listen to one of her sermons we might find something that would send her to The Big House.
