Annual Christmas Show At Prestonwood Baptist Is Indistinguishable From A Hallmark Movie While Being A Triumph Of The End Times Laodicean Church by Geoffrey Grider for Now The End Begins
The annual Christmas show at Prestonwood Baptist is Texas is virtually indistinguishable from a Hallmark movie, welcome to the Church of Laodicea!
The 19th-century Baptist preacher Charles Haddon Spurgeon was speaking of our day when he prophetically remarked ‘A time will come when instead of shepherds feeding the sheep, the church will have clowns entertaining the goats!’ Spurgeon was right on the money, and a quick trip to Revelation 3:14-22 shows you why he was. The Prestonwood Baptist megachurch in Plano Texas is uniquely qualified to be a poster boy for both Spurgeon’s statement and the revelation of scripture. If you keep on reading in Revelation 3, Jesus calls to anyone and everyone trapped inside the end times Laodicean Church to ‘open the door’ and He will come in and meet with you personally.
“Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.” Revelation 3:20,21(KJB)

In our day, the opinion by clergy of the power of the gospel is so low that they dare not trust it to operate on its own in their worship services, so they dress it up to make it more appealing to the masses. Prestonwood Baptist says that over 75,000 people will come to see their Hallmark-style Christmas Show that features a cast of nearly a thousand people, has Santa Claus flying in a real sleigh over their head, with elves singing a rocking version of ‘Santa Claus Is Coming To Town’. At the end, after they have satiated the carnal thirst of their audience for worldly spectacle, we see Joseph, Mary and the birth of the Baby Jesus. But how much you want to bet that, after watching this triumph of Laodicea, that all anyone walks away talking about was the flying Santa. I like a good Hallmark movie, just not at Church. Give me the gospel of the grace of God and give me Jesus. You can keep everything else.
