“While both men and women are gifted for service in the church, the office of pastor is limited to men as qualified by Scripture.” The Baptist Faith and Message 2000
“Biblically, an apostle was someone who was involved with Jesus and/or knew of Jesus before his crucifixion and after his crucifixion…we can conclude biblically that a true apostle in the New Testament style is no longer possible because it would require that the person had been with Christ and/or have seen the risen Lord.” Christian Apologetics Research Ministry
Christian brothers and sisters of Cartersville and Bartow County, GA, are you serious about winning your city and county for Christ? Where do you go to do it? How do you go about doing so? How do you go about identifying those who are doing it with you? How do you identify those who only look like they are doing it with you? Unfortunately, there is at least one local church in Cartersville that is leading people down the wrong path in the name of Christ: All About Jesus Ministries, Inc., which is led by a self-proclaimed “Apostle” named Eric Mosely and his wife, Maydia, who has been deemed a “pastor” by that ministry.
According to the Bartow Baptist Association (BBA), approximately 80% of Bartow County residents do not attend church; that equates to approximately 80,000 people without a church home. The BBA further estimates that 50% of the population of Bartow does not having a saving relationship was Jesus Christ (these estimates are of 2011). Because there are so many lost and unchurched people in Bartow County, you may be tempted, when sharing Christ with a stranger, to take his profession of faith and church membership at face value and move on to next person. Please don’t do this. Just because someone says he knows Jesus and attends church doesn’t mean that he has a saving relationship with Christ and attends a church that is faithfully discipling him by rightly dividing the word of God.
Consider the example of All About Jesus Ministries, Inc. The church’s pastor claims to be an Apostle even though the biblical office of Apostle does not continue. His wife claims to be a pastor even though, according to biblical teaching, this office is reserved for men. The members of this church are under the yoke of unbiblical authority figures. Furthermore, the targets of this church’s “ministry” are some of Bartow County’s poorest and least educated people. Bartow County’s poorest are being preached to about first fruits and tithing by the “Apostle” Eric Mosley. What little they have to give is unfortunately being donated to this self-proclaimed Apostle, who apparently has no formal theological training. Do they know any better to listen to him, his “pastor” wife, and the string of Pentecostal preachers and self proclaimed prophets who are paraded through their church?
Cartersville Gardens is a low-income community near All about Jesus Ministries Inc. Will you leave the evangelism and discipleship of the people in this community to “Apostle” Eric Mosley?
An “Apostle”, a “Prophetess”, and even a “Psalmist” were invited to speak with female “pastors” to the women of Bartow County
“Hear What God is Saying to the Body of Christ”? It’s doubtful He spoke through the Apostle and Prophet and the “Prophetic Wind” Conference.
The Bartow Baptist Association is proud of the cooperation between local black churches and white churches. However, Christ’s people should not be united with false teachers for any cause. Rocky Abernathy is the pastor of the International House of Prayer (IHOP). IHOP is widely considered a cult and is a part of the dangerous New Apostolic Reformation movement. Gloria Gainor is a woman and cannot truly be a pastor.
James Black is an arch Pentecostal. He was formerly the proprietor of the “Open Door Christian Bookstore” in Cartersville. His store sold all manner of false teaching, including that of Benny Hinn, Joel Osteen, and Joyce Meyer.
Does All About Jesus Ministries Inc, host true prophets? Imagine the words spoken to Bartow County’s poorest by people claiming to speak directly for God.
Is this female “pastor” selling CDs to her own people in what is supposedly God’s house?
What is the “Apostle” influencing this young man to do or believe?
Eric and Maydia park up front.
You cannot look into the hearts of Eric and Maydia Mosely and know why they do what they do. They may be honestly unaware that they are unqualified for their offices. Whether they know it or not, the Bible is clear – Eric Mosley is not an Apostle and his wife is not a pastor. If the opportunity comes your way to point a member of All About Jesus Ministries, Inc. along the right path, take it. If the opportunity comes along to partner with this ministry, turn the other way.

Just out of curiosity, have you ever Sat down with the Moselys to try to form a relationship with them and get to know them? Perhaps you’re unaware but your comments and the way you describe “these people and those people ” sounds judgemental. Furthermore, How do you know if the folks living there are uneducated? Also, how do you know if the Mosleys aren’t inviting your neighbors to church (The Waterford) yes I recognize the neighborhood.
He came and preached a powerful word at a revival at Roselawn a few weeks ago and many of us were invited to join them. He mentioned wanting relationships with us (most of us white middle class folks) and invited us to their church.
1. I don’t have to form a relationship with with either of them to know that he’s not an Apostle and his wife is not a pastor. I just need a Bible to know that.
2. I have tried contacting him via phone. My call went unreturned.
3. How do I know folks living in Section 8 housing are uneducated?
4. It’s not that they aren’t inviting them, it’s the proximity. I imagine they would love to increase their
attendance (and influence and giving) from any demographic.
5. Simple question: Either Eric Mosley is a false teacher or his wife is a pastor. Which is it?
As a member of All About Jesus Ministries I KNOW you have it all wrong but if you’re looking to find out how this ministry operates come join us sunday…praying for you
Janarious,
Am I wrong that Eric Mosley’s wife calls herself a “pastor” and that Eric Mosley calls himself an “Apostle”?
Have you never read in God’s work about a prophetess named Anna in Luke 2:36? What about Aquila and Priscilla in Acts 18:26 ? Husband and wife that preached the gospel as a team. These was very good friends with Paul. So many more examples?
None of those people were pastors.
What is your definition of a pastor? Or the church for that matter? I’m confused. If a prophetess is a women prophet taking the gospel what’s the difference?
I think this is a biblical definition of a local church (“the” church is, of course, every Christian:
“A New Testament church of the Lord Jesus Christ is an autonomous local congregation of baptized believers, associated by covenant in the faith and fellowship of the gospel; observing the two ordinances of Christ, governed by His laws, exercising the gifts, rights, and privileges invested in them by His Word, and seeking to extend the gospel to the ends of the earth. Each congregation operates under the Lordship of Christ through democratic processes. In such a congregation each member is responsible and accountable to Christ as Lord. Its scriptural officers are pastors and deacons. While both men and women are gifted for service in the church, the office of pastor is limited to men as qualified by Scripture.
The New Testament speaks also of the church as the Body of Christ which includes all of the redeemed of all the ages, believers from every tribe, and tongue, and people, and nation.”
A pastor is a Christian minister in his capacity of teaching, spiritually nurturing, and caring for a local church.
Everything that has been said here is unfounded opinion. None of the “information” you have written comes from any direct source nor from information you yourself have seen nor experienced with your own eyes. Do you know ANYONE who attends this church? Have you spoken to ANYONE who lives in that neighborhood that attends that church? Does your church do ANY street ministry? Do YOU do any street ministry? Have you attended ANY of the events that for this church that you have advertised?
This being ONLY your opinion, is unsupported by actual evidence, personal experience, or interviews from actual people who know anything about this church…this is, indeed, false accusations and unsupported biases spread by a man who obviously has an evil agenda intended to slander an African American church that is focused on uniting ALL races and denominations in Bartow county. Your agenda is division.
In fact…it’s not even an African American church…because they have members who are non-African American.
Nitascia,
Everything is unfounded opinion? There are videos and advertisements from the AAJM’s own social media pages.
If you would like to be interviewed about AAJM, I would be more than happy to do it. Please send your contact info to geoffrey_dunn@yahoo.com and we can set something up.
Best,
Seth
Are you saying that the Gospal is not for the poor. Your about the most ignorant person do you not tithe your first fruits to your church.
Are you a racist? Iknow what it is to be poor. I know what it is like to have God to bless you with plenty. I know what it is like to be Baptist and not know any thing about the fullness of the spirit. If you want moor of The spirit of God seek him. Oh yes and at your church do you not have parking four your Minister. Do you know what the five fold ministry is Preachers teachers Apostals pastors Evangelist .
The gospel is for everyone, poor and rich alike.
I am not racist, why do you ask that?
Apostles, prophets, evangelists, shepherds, and teachers – which one gets his own parking space?
You most definitely are looking at this from head knowledge, not heart knowledge. Have you ever been to a church service that was led by the Holy Spirit and not by a program of “we are doing this at this time and that at this time.” I was raised in the Baptist faith and have to say that it felt like oppression to me. Once I was able to experience the fullness of God, I knew there was more. I felt judged my whole life in church and people that speak what you are speaking is what continues the feeling of oppression. I will pray for you that the Holy Spirit takes you from all of this “head knowledge and gives you heart knowledge.” We now have God’s grace.
My whole life is led by the Holy Spirit. That’s why, when I see a man claiming to he an “Apostle” with a “pastor” wife, I warn people.
