Preaching Hallelujah Diet Heresy

Pastor Jonathan Crosby of Greenville, S.C., has added another voice to the never-ending Hallelujah Diet chorus... or maybe I should say cacophony.

You see, every week for months now in his newsletter, "Christian" George Malkmus has been attacking "Christian" Jordan Rubin. According to Malkmus, Rubin, author of The Maker's Diet, attacked the Hallelujah Diet in his book so Malkmus opted not to turn the other cheek.

And now Jonathan Crosby, the leader of a self-described "congregation of baptized saints of Jesus Christ," rips into fellow "Christian" George Malkmus.

Didn't Jesus say somewhere in the bible these guys all claim to understand so well that people should "love one another"?

In any event, with biting and entertaining prose, Crosby exposes the multitude of biblical contradictions in Malkmus's wild claim to be teaching "God's Diet."

For example, in the prologue to the document, the South Carolina pastor writes, "George Malkmus, a self-proclaimed reverend, turned wild vegetarian ideas into a mass-marketing business to prey on gullible Christians. He sells juicers, distillers, supplements, books, and gimmicks to fleece the simple... This document exposes his heresy for Bible Christians by the infallible Word of God. If you think it too harsh, read Psalm 119:128 and Isaiah 8:20. Amen!"

Although I don't agree with much of what Crosby has to say about diet, I do appreciate his commentary on a program that is hurting a lot of Christians (especially expectant mothers, nursing mothers, babies, children, and teen-agers).

If you or anyone you know on the Hallelujah Diet is having problems, I have answers for you at

These are answers you won't get from Hallelujah Acres.

In fact, Hallelujah Acres and their PhD researcher Michael Donaldson have still not answered the objections raised about their diet over two years ago in the article by former Health Minister
