Today's church is often a luke warm church filled with comfortable apathetic, uncaring
"counterfeit Christians" who will not get involved and help stop the massive killing of unborn babies, who will not invest in the lives of our children to help stop our rising prison population, who have converted the pastorate into a revolving door(even though nowhere in the Bible does it tell a church that it has the authority to hire and fire pastors)and who refuse to financially support the Trumpet of the Lord.
Sadly, we have seeker driven churches that have abandoned their faithful, and we have other churches who are dying because they refuse to witness to the lost that also refuse to change. We have purpose driven churches with purpose driven members who need to become instead rather God driven churches with God driven members. The church is luke warm today because it is not so much a purpose driven church as it is a sucsess driven church. The church and the ministry today is driven by sucsess and popularity, not by faithfulness and godliness. In a few words, the church has become more like a buisiness run by wall street executives and less like the ministry that was established by Jesus. Today's Great Commission has become raise a lot of money so that you can live like a yuppie and be well respected. So many ministers and ministries will do just about anything today that we are often no longer shocked at what we see. One popular tv minister denies the trinity and claims he can raise the dead, while another revoked the ordination of a minister he ordained just because he and his church were protesting abortion clinics. God forbid!
We at the Trumpet of the Lord are a real ministry and we are not a buisiness like many other Christian music ministries. We do not run our ministry like a buisiness. Our name is not owned by a corporation of people seeking to use it just to make a profit. We will help you in any way that we can. We often do things that many sucsessful so called "Christian" music ministries think is a little crazy like giving out free c.d.'s and Bibles to the needy, and ministering to very small churches even if they tell us that they can not afford our minimum fees. We at the Trumpet of the Lord want you to know that we refuse to SELL OUT like most of the other Christian music and or trumpet ministries have.
We do not spend our donations on fancy private multi million dollar jets, and we do not drive luxury cars. We invest in people not promotion, and that is why you might not see us promoting ourselves all of the time in the "popular" southern gospel magazines. We believe that the "Star" was for Jesus not ministers of the gospel. We do not seek to be the most popular group, we only seek to be the most faithful. That is why after so many "popular" groups and singers who achieved more fame than we ever have come and go, yet the Trumpet of the Lord remains faithful to witness to the lost and we are still ministering to churches like we have been doing ever since 1981. We refuse to blow even one note on a trumpet unless we also are given a chance to share the gospel, and we have turned down chances to play where we were "asked" not to speak but just play.
Why would we turn down a chance just to play?
There are some activites that are so bad that the "OUTLAW MIKE" will not participate in them.
Because sharing God's word and worshiping Jesus, not entertaining people is our goal, we select music that gives all the praise, glory and honor to the Lord Jesus Christ. We seek to edify believers, and we do not compromise and get involved with counterfeit Christians like other Christian trumpet ministries have.
We at the Trumpet of the Lord want for you to know that things that are different are not the same, and we are not the trumpet player that played for the opening of Bill Clinton's Presidental library.This same Christian trumpet player even performed the finale "Battle Hymn of the Republic" August 17,2000 at the Democratic National Convention in Staples Center in Los Angeles California. This 'popular" Christian trumpet player who calls himself a "Prophet" of God Almighty was there to show his support for the pro choice pro baby killer/abortion supporter Al Gore's "vision for the future" which included continuing a womans so called "pro choice" right to kill "her" own baby.
The Trumpet of the Lord is not a political organization. Nevertheless, because the Trumpet of the Lord follows the Bible we could never support a group of people who support a womans right to kill "her" own baby.
In protest of this Christian trumpet player and other "CCM" artists performing for the Democratic National Convention Bruce Carter responded:
_____________________
"What a lame attempt by the democrats to throw Christians a bone - to
have a few CCM artists sprinkled in their convention. If I were a
Christian artist, I would have declined the invitation to play at
their convention. The voting records of both men are repugnant to
Christian believers. Even if I chose to call myself a Democrat, my
faith would not allow me to align myself with two fools who do not
honor Jesus Christ - one by his stands on issues, and the other by his
religion.
As far as religion and politics being separate - lets stick our heads
in the sand and ignore the one world government types like Gore
surrender our national sovereignty to the UN. Lets seal ourselves in
our churches and listen to Christian music while babies get ripped to
pieces in abortion chambers - because we didn't have the courage to be
Ceasar - and render unto ourselves - "We the people" the things that
are Ceasar's - OURS. And the things that are God's - like the
precious lives these monsters have supported snuffing out in the name
of "choice". Like the baby - which has already chosen to live - has
any choice! Selfish b------es goes in and have their babies ripped to
pieces and the skull crushed - just so their lives can be more
convenient. And Clinton and Gore think that is OK, and then say they
believe in God - who loves little children. Is there something wrong
with this picture?
OK - democrats - go listen to your CCM. Listen to
"A Baby's Prayer"
by Kathy Trocolli, then go vote for Gore and see how many babies he
can cause the slaughter of. I would hate to stand before the
judgement seat of Almighty God and say "I supported men who believed
abortion was right, because I am a liberal democrat". Can anybody say
"going DOWN"!
Politics has to do with how we live on earth. Religion has to do with
how we will live forever. I think it is time to talk about them.
Remind me to boycott the artists who played for the convention."

Bruce the Trumpet of the Lord agrees with you and we would have declined the invitation to perform there even though it would have given us a chance to become more popular and get more invitations to preach and play and thus build more wealth.
this is just one of the reasons why we at the Trumpet of the Lord Ministry think that you should think about us the next time that you are looking to invite a sold biblically based preacher and trumpet player to minister to your church.
We are not all the same.
