Selfish Worship In Leviticus we read of two men who decided to offer worship to the Lord their way, ignoring God’s commandments. Today, we find the Church throughout the world returning to this attitude, offering God “strange fire” rather than the type of worship He asks for and deserves. And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the Lord, which he commanded them not (Leviticus 10:1).

11) What does Cardinal Suenens’ participation in the charismatic movement and the Louvain Conference confirm for us about the purpose of charismatic experience-based religion in the scheme of the New World Order? (00:33:05)
Joseph Suenens, as quoted in David W. Cloud, Flirting with Rome: Evangelical Entanglement with Roman Catholicism (Oak Harbor, WA: Way of Life Literature, 1993): Since I have had this [charismatic] experience, my allegiance to the Holy Father as the Vicar of Christ in the world has been heightened and strengthened. My appreciation for Mary as the co-redemptress and mediatoress of my salvation has been assured. My appreciation of the mass as the sacrifice of Christ has now been heightened.
“Louvain Declaration,” CIB Bulletin 6:9 (1990): 2:
Buddhists, Christians, Confucianists, Hindus, Jains, Jews, Muslims, Shintoists, Sikhs, Zoroastrians and still others, we have sought here to listen to the spirit within our varied and venerable religious traditions…We appeal to the religious communities of the world to inculcate the attitude of planetary citizenship.

Kenneth Copeland, Believers Voice of Victory Broadcast (July 9, 1987): And I say this with all respect, so that it won’t upset you too bad. But I say it anyway: When I read in the Bible where He says, “I AM,” “I just smile and say, “Yes, I AM, too.”
Benny Hinn, Our Position in Christ #2: The Word Made Flesh (Audio tape, 1991): side 2:
Don’t tell me you have Jesus. You are everything He was and everything He is and ever shall be...Don’t say, ‘I have.’ Say ‘I AM, I AM, I AM, I AM, I AM.
Unfortunately, the religion endorsed by many evangelicals today is based on needs and emotions rather than the Word of God and the saving work of Christ. We all need to examine our own lives to determine whether a heart-change is needed in this area.
My DECISION For Jesus Are you willing to abandon your search for mere emotional fulfillment and instead follow Christ, who said, “In this world you will have trouble, but I have overcome the world?”
