Love being part of Anointed Writers!❤
What an insightful and educated essay on Authorship responsibility and the ethics of a Christian platform, but also from someone who was there 1st hand.Wow I started texting tooooo soon😮Really enjoyed your video.I just went a long way in a short time.
Thank you for your kind feedback.
Lynn Saint - My heart breaks for those who have had their trust broken by a violation of the confidence placed in leaders and in others. My godly father used to pray that God would forgive our sins of commission and omission. May my heart be sensitive to the grief I cause Jesus. I appreciate your explanation of the platform as contrasted with grace. God’s grace is so abundant for us. However, His anointing may be withdrawn through our own negligence. Bless your vulnerable and open heart. 🙏♥️🙏
This was so helpful and encouraging! It was so fun to see you now and then! ❤
I couldn’t resist putting these out there!
I love this Nika! ❤ Thank you! He has tugged at me to do this since 2019, getting me prepared! 🙌🏼👑🎤
You got this!
I am not Christian or any religion but hank you for your insights and for your information about Bill Gothard. I just finished reading "A Well Trained Wife" by Tia Levings, whom I found on Instagram, and her book mentions Gothard devotees.
Love this video! What a great idea :) I learned a lot from both of you :)
Damn if ur LGBTQIA+ phobic just say so
My prescription glasses have helped me read the Bible and discover that theism is a load of crap. Put on your glasses and read the Quran, and you'll discover the same thing. You can't blame poor eyesight for a lack of critical thinking skills. You can temporarily forget that you're wearing glasses, but ultimately you realize that SCIENCE has clarified the space between us. There is no evidence whatsoever that gods or devils have anything to do with reality, no matter how much you try to squint it into existence. have more confidence in secular humanism and less in Dungeons an Dragons.
Oh wow, you have no idea what I was actually talking about, do you?
@@NikaMaples1 Oh wow, yes I do understand. Turn your eyeballs to the left and right, and you can see the frames! Hallelujah! If I wish to consciously ignore the fact that I'm wearing glasses, THAT'S PRIDE. (Or maybe it's early onset dementia). In either case, as far as I can see, there is no invisible magic sky-daddy materializing in front of me displaying an objective code of morality. There's only a filthy old book of supertitious fables and millennia-old bigotries. Maybe you're just cross-eyed. I hear that happens when you stare overlong at those sadomsochistic crucifixes.
It's very sad when it has to end this way. But as Christians let's continue to pray for them.We are all sinners who have fell short of God's Glory.😯🫢🤦♂️😢😢
What I have seen is not gloating about Robert Morris, but identifying the sin that was hidden because of his decision and actions. It’s not gloating, God is exposing Morris’s sin along with others. It’s called cleaning house not by us, but by God! Nothing was taken from him, his decisions to commit sins then hide the whole truth, all by himself. He is now paying the consequences for HIS actions.

Robert Morris was not serving the Lord period. he was deceiving everybody. He is a pervert. I wonder if you would feel the same way have that sweet smile on your face if that was your daughter or granddaughter he was molesting
Question: Is Robert Morris or any relative still receiving ANY monetary income from Gateway Church or affiliated entities? Why is the congregation not asking this question?
How do you know no one is asking?
This was an excellent analysis, Nika. Thank you so much for sharing from your experience and prayerful wisdom.
Another great and informative presentation Nika. Thank you : )
I totally & absolutely agree with you. In fact I said this to someone "a pastor" talking about Pastor Morris & i said to this brother "he that hath no sin cast a stone" Jesus said to the woman neither do i condemn you. We should encourage Morris not condemning him.
Thank you, Nika, so good. I am greatly blessed and encouraged by your words : )
He’s not suffering, at least in his fiance’s.the reason so many people came to that church is because James Roberson helped him get his teachings out there on TV. 📺 and people think that if you’re on TV. That means you are a good place to be and so they go look and when it’s still new, then there’s many positions to be filled and then there you have it!!And then there’s many types of personalities going on and when it gets so big the Pastor has to turn some things over to others and it’s a big thing that will explode at some point.. just saying I have 50 yrs. Watching these things that end up WRONG AND WE SEE THE $$ and it’s just wrong. They have millions of dollars & live like CELEBRITIES AND THERE ARE PEOPLE HURTING, starving right under their noses 👃 now tell me God is pleased with that..🤔🙆♀️😔
I ment gloting he should of went to jail .
Sorry most people aren't global but sad for you and many others Morris is always been a false teacher prosperity gospell and hyperchasmatic christans and false. Teaching he never should have been allowed after to be preaching and should of went to church God is reveling the wolf's he said if you don't give you are cursed wake up it's not all about books get back to your true Bible 😢
Throw out all teachings from Morris... He's a sick, twisted, and unrepentant predator, and all his teachings will be tainted one way or the other.
What about this? I respect and stand with thjs man. What more do people expect him to do? Didnt he quite the sin decades ago? I think Jesus forgave him decades ago. Prove me wrong with scripture. ruclips.net/video/l14PCQI6Xw4/видео.htmlsi=3vRZMOLPwg4O8aUQ
You’re welcome to prove yourself right with Scripture.
Present ongoing sin is one thing but decades ago? I don't think so. I respect and stand with thjs man. He is authentic. ruclips.net/video/l14PCQI6Xw4/видео.htmlsi=3vRZMOLPwg4O8aUQ
Excellent talk, thank you
I am sorry. It seems that you were too close to the man. Robert Morris did not have an effective ministry. He was a false teacher. You can not be a false teacher and effective in the same breath.
Nothing HAPPENED to him! Obviously he has always been sick!!!! 🤢
Our Pastor plans to lead a Bible study this fall on one of Robert Morris' books "The God I never knew". In light of Mr Morris' moral failings do you think this is a good idea? I would like to hear your opinion. Thanks
Robert Morris was a prosperity gospel teacher. Basically that god is Santa Claus who wants nothing more than to bless you with riches and wealth and health. God does not exist to give you everything you want and desire. Not to mention that God says that if a prophet is proven to be false, you do not need to follow that teacher. I don't listen to any pastor who proves themselves to be liars or false teachers. I stopped attending Marshill Church and listening to Mark Driscoll when he proved himself to be a liar and thief.
Be sure to compare what you study in RM book with the actual Word of God in the correct context. RM has problematic teachings and I would rather try watch some of the criticism of his teachings, which may offend you, but rather let that offend you, than go down a wrong path. You should rather do a Bible study on the books in the scripture.
I respect and stand with thjs man. He is authentic. ruclips.net/video/l14PCQI6Xw4/видео.htmlsi=3vRZMOLPwg4O8aUQ
I think it is dead wrong to dig up peoples past sins after they have repented, stopped, and been forgiven. So pathetic.
Is there a video clip of him calling God Santa Claus? Just curious if you are actually quoting.
let he who is without sin t0ss the first stone
@@nanasimms please remind me what Jesus said about the millstone.....
Judge not and you won’t be judged. I feel bad for Robert and I believe God isn’t done with him yet. Yeah he had a horrible past but so did King David, and so did Paul, yet they were forgiven. I feel bad for the victim and I hope she can forgive him one day because I know Jesus has.
Go back and reread what apostole Paul said; most people do not understand judgement. Paul explains that we believers are to hold accountable/judge the actions of those inside the church. Believers are to " purge the evil person from among you". God will judge non-believers . Cor 5:12-13. 1Cor 5:11 An adult married and with a child who molests a 12 year girl in her own home has committed a crime .
The difference between King David and Robert, King David was truly remorseful. Robert was only remorseful when he got caught. He did everything in his power to keep her story from coming out, including offering to pay her to keep her silent. He lied about her age. He lied and said that her father had blessed his ministry when he came back. Robert Morris never truly repented.
Morris is gonna be in jail before this is over.. God willing!
Thank you for touching on this. My book includes this church’s impact on my life during my journey of the memoir I’m writing. I wasn’t sure where and if it still belonged in my book. You gave me more to think about.
Yes! You don’t have to be afraid to share a positive impact that Gateway had in your life! No one can take away what God has done in you!
Your content episode is great
How does this logic apply to the apostle Paul?
Tell me more of what you are asking.
@@NikaMaples1 I am trying to think through my jumbled thoughts and questions about this whole mess. First of all it's not my circus or my monkeys and I'm not looking to delve deeply into the story. What I will do is attempt to write (you should like that) down my thinking and questions and get back to you :) Stay tuned! :)
How come the son is paying the price of the Father's sin. Is this according to the BIBLE?
@@NikaMaples19
@@joanhoffmann7478It’s a natural consequence. Wrong is wrong. He hurt his child and has continued to gaslight everyone. It is biblical to judge people by their fruit. Pointing out sin is not gloating. The prosperity gospel is not biblical, anyway.
Great information!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for the reminders and encouragement. The Lord uses you to keep me moving forward:)
I'm so glad!
Kudos for speaking out with clarity and gracious warnings. What a relevant and timely message for our times. The 'notice and note' advice is a direct affirmation of a word the Lord spoke to me in prayer just this week! And above all - "No one is as cute as you!" I thought that when you were 14, and I think it still. xo
Thank you, thank you! 🥰🥰🥰
It has been so helpful to me!!!!!🎉
I'm so glad!
I am speaking, with individuals, sharing the greatness of Hod through my testimony…the boldness to write is rising. I am so blessed by you & AW!!! Author development IS massive, like you’ve said 🦋
Great word!! Isn't the Lord good to us and thankful for discernment. Your three tips are GREAT guardrails. Sidenote: I watched that docuseries and was so sad for her, her family and the people she had influence with.
I know. It was really sad!!
Good word. Thank you❤
Love this❤🙏🏾‼
YES!!!
This is awesome! Thank you for boldly sharing! God bless! 🙏
Thanks for watching!
Video content is really amazing 🎉
Excellent content
Awesome episode
Hi Nika, very good conversation today. Luckily I learn a lot from your channel. Look, guys, I want to share with you about a new book that was released, THE MERCENARY RESCUE DOG, by D. Makienzy. I loved the story. It is a book for children, teenagers and young people. So, for those of you who like to write, I believe you will be inspired by this beautiful adventure and fiction story. The book is now available on Amazon, in two formats, ebook and paperback. And please review the book. Don't forget to share! Happy reading everyone!
Christ was never concerned about 'feelings'. He only spoke truth.
I’m so curious about your comment. Do you care to share more? I’d genuinely love to know your perspective on Jesus not caring about feelings.
Sorry, I meant to say not being “concerned” about feelings.
Excellent! I have found this to be so true! I love your exacting tips, Nika!
So glad!
I loved this - thank you for your blessing🥰
You are so welcome!
