You have a lot to say about Pastor Arnold Murray. You tear down his belief of the scripture but don’t supply the scripture he is supposedly not interpreting correctly and you don’t supply why you think it is so incorrect. this article is full of YOU and OPINION but not much scripture to back up what you say he is teaching wrong.
I see you now have your own DENOMINATION now that you have learned there is actually a Jesus (who taught you that again?) Do you also take donations?

Comment:

"now that you have learned there is actually a Jesus (who taught you that again?)" 

My father, Michael S. Stringini taught me that, thank you.  It sure wasn't the Shepherd's Chapel.

Do you have something specific in mind?  I submit that Pastor Murray's teaching is full of "you and opinion"  I can substantiate whatever I have said (and have (to myself) and will (publicly) for you)) but it takes time, I'm pretty busy and You are the first person who has asked, so where would you like me to begin?
 
 "see you now have your own DENOMINATION now that you have learned there is actually a Jesus (who taught you that again?) "
 
Shepherd's Chapel is also a denomination.  To denominate means "to give a name" So?
 
"Do you also take donations? "
 
Not in the last few years, lol... it has been a while since I got one, but Pastor Murray Frequently brags about how he doesn't take a salary for teaching, but he lives the lifestyle of a millionaire off of money taken from the Chapel,  I don't grudge him his riches, but his bragging is disgusting, have you ever been to the chapel?

Further Comment:

I suppose I stepped into it a little that time,  as I stated at the outset, these conversations are unedited.  At the time I was writing this email I was being bombarded with material alleging all kinds of fiscal misdeeds by Dr. Murray and his sons.  I don't have any evidence or knowledge I can present here.  But for a long time I have personally suspected that Dr. Murray receives a salary as President of the Shepherd's Chapel Network, BUT (true to his word) not "for teaching."   He always says "I've never taken a dime for teaching" and has occasionally boasted about being "President of this network."  He never says I have never taken a dime from this church, or from this ministry, it is always "for teaching."   That is just my opinion, but go to Gravette, look at where the Murray's lie and what they drive.  I believe that he is entitled to be paid for his ministry, but I think that boasting about it, even if it is true, even if he was living in a shack, boasting about it is disgusting. "...Do not sound a trumpet before you..."
