Pastor Greg Locke@pastorlocke
Dear Bro. Mike, when we officially met at Charlie’s funeral, you would barely shake my hand. I made a point to be kind and gracious. I even said I appreciate your ministry. You never cracked a smile and acted as if I was some homeless guy asking for a dollar. You have a difficulty being kind to those you disagree with. Don’t become another bitter and defiant Justin Peters. You’ve brought to light some things that needed to be addressed but the attention it garnered has sent you on a daily witch hunt to gun down every single person you have an issue with. I know you feel noble, and I won’t question your motives. I used to call out all sorts of people and say stuff that sounded bold and courageous. People clapped so I kept it up. God corrected me, I repented and stopped being a jerk for Jesus. Boldness is great! However, boldness without brokenness only makes you a bully. You have a solid group cheering you on for now but in a year many of them will turn against you and a number of them will also be exposed. What you’re doing is not sanctioned by God and is not part of the 5-fold structure of growth and correction for the local church. I would feel safe in saying that your Pastor, if you have one, is not a fan of your constant beating on the Body of Christ. I could literally arrange you sitting down with many of the people you are berating. I doubt that would be acceptable to you but I pray I’m wrong. By the way, I agree with the exposure of fake prophecies and sexual abuse and misconduct. But now, it’s literally the next person, and another church and somebody else you heard something about. This is unfortunate and destructive behavior. If you honestly think you will be commended by God for this at the Judgment Seat of Christ, you should pour another cup of coffee and read more Scripture. You are the “BibleThinker” but you’re becoming the BodyBully. The Charismatic movement has an abundance of problems and abuses. However, the SBC has more sex offenders than any denomination on the planet and your many of your Reformed friends have “chosen” (see what I did there) indecent exploits as well and some rank heretical positions. Where are those videos? You can hate me. You can make a whole video about me. I really don’t care. What I do care about is the FACT that you’re helping to create and foster a “dig up people’s skeletons” culture and the LORD plainly says you’ll eventually fall in the hole you’ve dug. Take it or leave it. You are quickly becoming the Candace Owen’s of Christian podcasting and it’ll not only make you irrelevant, it’ll only bring more eyes to what will inevitably be revealed about your own life. I don’t deny your desire to be holy or Biblical but there has NEVER been anyone in the history of the world that has judged and criticized so many others that did not have hidden indiscretions in their own life. You can say what you want. You can do what you want. However, you can’t decide the consequences and the outcomes. You should return to Bible teaching and stop trying to be the Jr. Holy Spirit for the Body of Christ. Exposure and exploitation are two very different things. You keep claiming, “I’m not making any money on these posts”. Maybe so, but you’re also not gaining any Heavenly rewards for it. Be blessed but SIT DOWN.
