Only Indifferent Churchgoers Are Angry At Me

Galatians 1:6-7, “I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.”

Galatians 4:16-17a, “Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth? They zealously affect you, but not well...”

Sadly, I have made more enemies among pseudo-fundamentalist churches and Bible colleges over the past 12 years than I have my entire life. In 2014, I began attending the shameful Harvest Baptist Church on Guam which would in time open a Pandora's Box revealing a depth of spiritual corruption and ecclesiastical indifference, the stench of which reaches to the gates of Hell.

Since 2014, I have learned that Harvest Baptist Church is comprised of graduates from Bob Jones University (BJU), which today has deteriorated into a cesspool of Calvinism and apostasy. And then in 2021, I learned that Pensacola Christian College (PCC) is in bed committing spiritual adultery with the Bob Jones University (BJU) cult. Birds of a feather flock together!

The most important rule to keep in mind for anyone involved with these two apostate religious groups (cults) at BJU and PCC is to 'KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT'; just go along to get along, because if you don't you WILL BE kicked out, shunned, ostracized demonized, rejected, hated and avoided like the COVID-19 virus plague. That was my fate in both camps, punished for TELLING THE TRUTH! Galatians 4:16-17, “Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth? They zealously affect you, but not well; yea, they would exclude you, that ye might affect them. And please don't miss what the Apostle Paul says in Galatians 4:20, “I desire to be present with you now, and to change my voice; for I stand in doubt of you. Paul doubted their salvation in the Galatian churches, because they had been infiltrated by a cult who were preaching Lordship Salvation instead of a free grace Gospel.

Two Main Issues That Get Me Kicked Out of Churches

There are two great issues that have caused umpteen pastors and churches to reject, shun, ostracize, demonize and throw me under the bus:
  1. All modern English Bible revisions are corrupt. For that reason we have a duty and obligation as fundamentalist Bible preachers to cry aloud against Satan's corruptible seed, to warn people about the Devil's dangerous fake Bible versions.
  2. The Bible teaches Easy-Believism. It is tragic that a counterfeit plan of salvation is being preached from nearly every pulpit today. Biblical salvation does not mandate that you first be willing to turn away from your sinful bad habits to get to Heaven. That is works, not grace (Romans 4:4). In God's simple plan of salvation, you come as you are as a guilty dirty sinner, and you accept Christ's sacrifice on the cross as full payment for your sins, believing that He was buried, but then physically resurrected from the dead three days later. This is “the gospel” by which all who BELIEVE IT are saved (Romans 1:16; 1st Corinthians 15:1-6; 1st Thessalonians 4:14).
Now, what has happened in most churches today (including Independent Fundamental Baptist churches and Bible colleges) is that they have become INDIFFERENT toward heresy.

In January of 2013, Dr. John Wilkerson spoke as a candidate for the position of pastor at the First Baptist Church of Hammond, Indiana. I was sickened when a church member asked him for his stance on the modern Bible revisions. Brother Wilkerson said he thinks “it may do more harm than good to criticize a baby believer's Bible version. Dr. Wilkerson also said he thinks it is disrespectful to criticize their modern version.” I couldn't disagree more! Was Pastor Jack Hyles being “disrespectful” to people to expose Satan's modern Bible revisions? No, Dr. Hyles was faithfully warning people!

What has sadly happened in our Independent Fundamental Baptist churches today is that we've become complacent. We've become indifferent toward heresy, corrupt Bible revisions and damnable heresy. When refraining from preaching hard against sin and heresy is grossly mistaken under the guise of Christian love and having a Christlike spirit, you have apostasy!

Kindly said, Pastor Wilkerson's cavalier attitude toward Satan's corruptible seed is not fundamentalism, it is neo-evangelical apostasy! If I went to attend the First Baptist Church of Hammond today (I won't), and I started making an issue that their pastor denies the inspiration of the King James Bible, they'd kick me out faster than I could ask what happened. But that doesn't mean that I am in the wrong!

The only churchgoers who are angry at me are those who halt between two opinions. 1st Kings 18:21, “And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word.” Either a lost sinner must be willing to turn from his or her sinful behavior to receive God's free gift of eternal life, or else they do not; but it absolutely cannot be both. Things that are different are not the same. That is all I am preaching! I refuse to merely go along quietly with the insanity in nearly every church today that coddles multiple plans of salvation, as if what we believe to get to Heaven doesn't really matter. I assure you on the authority of the Scripture that it DOES (Galatians 1:6-9).

The 'Repent of Your Sins' To Be Saved Damnable Heresy

Another example are the dozens of rotten Baptist churches in the city of Pensacola who are associated with the cult at Pensacola Christian College (PCC). I have made enemies in all of these corrupt churches, detested and shunned by their pastors, pastors wives and congregations because I am TELLING THE TRUTH, exposing PCC for preaching another gospel. One church member from Smyrna Baptist Church got upset toward me last week, leaving an angry message on Facebook. He boldly asserted that Pensacola Christian College is not wrong on the Gospel. Well, take a look for yourself at the crap PCC mailed to me in 2024, which I found in my mailbox...
“REPENTANCE — Now is the time to turn from your sin and embrace God. The act of turning away from sin is called 'repentance.' This word implies an inward decision to follow and obey God's will instead of your self-serving sins. It means changing your mind about sin and seeing it as something that grieves God. The Bible says that God patiently waits for all people to make this decision.” [emphasis added] SOURCE: “John & Romans,” Campus Church at Pensacola Christian College, p. 60
My God in Heaven, why does Dr. Shelton Smith and the Sword of the Lord wickedly bid Godspeed to this blatant heresy? 2nd John 1:11, “For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.” This is a counterfeit plan of salvation on par with the Church of Christ, Seventh-Day Adventists and Mormonism! PCC's Campus Church further states:
I repent of my sins. I realize that sin is something that God hates and I no longer want to hold onto sinful bad habits.” [emphasis added] SOURCE: “John & Romans,” Campus Church at Pensacola Christian College, p. 62
None of that garbage is taught in the inspired King James Bible; yet this is the deadly tommyrot, balderdash, poppycock and flapdoodle nonsense being taught at PCC's Campus Church today. Do you still think I bumped my head? I am simply TELLING THE TRUTH, for which I am hated by the PCC cult and their spiritual blind followers throughout the Pensacola area. SHAME! God is on my side because I am in agreement with God's inspired King James Bible!!! RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS!!!

So, I am not the bad guy for calling out the carnal First Baptist Church of Hammond for denying the inspiration of the King James Bible since 2009, and for refusing to expose the Devil's corrupt English Bible revisions that have crept into our churches and Bible college as a Trojan Horse full of hidden death! I am not INDIFFERENT, they are!

I strongly rebuked that young foolish church member from Smyrna Baptist Church the other day, for which a friend of his (another foolish church member at Smyrna) falsely accused me of “slander.” So, now I'm a slanderer for TELLING THE TRUTH that Chick Tracts are “toxic,” and Smyrna Baptist Church is a “cult” for distributing Chick Tracts. These wilfully blind fools make God vomit (Revelation 3:15-17). They make me sick too! I ended up blocking both of them out on Facebook, because of their hostility toward me, and now they are angry at me. So be it!

They've got their priorities wrong at PCC and Campus Church. They're far more concerned about male and female students going to the same beach together (expelling them all), than they are about the accuracy and integrity of the Gospel. That is messed up! PCC is NOT a trustworthy Bible college. Sadly, PCC has become more secular than Christian these days, now offering engineering degrees. Boy, that's what we need to save America, more engineers! Tragically, making money has become the primary focus of the Sword Of The Lord, PCC, BJU and nearly every so-called Christian “ministry today. It is apostasy!

Even though it may harelip every dog in the county, I am going to go to seed exposing these corrupt religious institutions and spiritually dead churches today who continue to pervert the Gospel of free grace (Galatians 1:6-7). Not one verse in the Bible mandates being willing to forsake a lifestyle of sinning to be saved. That is the Holy Spirit's job in the life of a believer (Galatians 3:20; 5:22-25). Turning from sin is a matter of sanctification, not justification. Pilgrim's Progress author John Bunyan said it best, and this is my favorite quote...
“If you do not put a difference between justification wrought by the man Christ without and sanctification wrought by the Spirit of Christ within, you are not able to divide the Word aright; but contrariwise, you corrupt the Word of God, and cast stumbling blocks before the people.” —John Bunyan (1628-1688)

I love it! Amen and amen Brother Bunyan.

Salvation is not a reward for the righteous, it is a gift for the guilty.

Salvation is not doing your best, it is having Christ's best put to your account through receiving Him by faith.

Turning away from sinful ways would be a work. Faith puts all of the merit where it belongs, on the object of our faith, Jesus and His work.

If to “repent” means to forsake our sinful ways TO BE SAVED, but Jesus already paid for our sins by dying on the cross, then what are we repenting from?

The true Gospel always points you to CHRIST; a false gospel always points to YOU.

If salvation is truly by grace, then you don't need to start or stop anything to be saved. Eternal life is a free gift from God (Romans 6:23).

Some members of the Smyrna Baptist Church in Pensacola are upset with me for calling them out as a “cult.” Well, they are! If the shoe fits, then wear it. Not one verse in the inspired King James Bible teaches that God will not save you unless you first feel a deep profound guilt over your sins, so much so that it changes your heart and behavior, so that you will turn away from lifelong sinful bad habits. This is the ungodly crap they are teaching in so-called “fundamentalist” churches and colleges today.

This is exactly what I heard and saw Pastor Timothy Zacharias teach on July 21st, 2021, at Campus Church. I was sitting in the audience! Dear reader, there are NOT variations of God's simple plan of salvation. The only requirement to believe the Gospel is to know that you are a needy sinner. That is, you need to know what you're being saved from. You and I are guilty sinner in God's sight. Consequently, we all deserve to burn in the fires of Hell forever. That is all you need to know concerning sin to be saved. The remedy is to simply BELIEVE ON THE LORD JESUS CHRIST (Acts 16:30-31). Faith is the only righteous thing that I can do.

Contending for the Faith Versus Sinful Compromise

The FIRST step downward in any church or Bible college is when they STOP contending for the faith. They stop fighting for two main reasons:

  1. For the love of money. The more people you offend, the less support you'll have. I met with Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001) before I graduated Hyles-Anderson College in 1993. I asked Preacher for his opinion on going to work after I graduated in a neo-evangelical ministry that I was being offered in Chicago. Dr. Hyles kindly warned me not to do it. Brother Hyles said: “You don't realize it now, but in a thousand ways you are different from them. You're from our fundamentalist camp, and they are from the neo-evangelical Moody Bible Institute camp. If you raise a fundamentalist flag that ministry will lose all their support. I recommend that you don't do it!” Pastor Hyles sure was wise and knew from a half century of pastoral experience what he was talking about.
  2. Fighting is uncomfortable. Let's face it, nobody wants to be hated. If I would have just stayed quiet and never made an issue I wouldn't be outside the gate with Jesus. If I simply didn't speak up on social media against women wearing pants, false Bibles, corrupt gospels, evil in society, false prophets, et cetera, then everybody would like me. But I HAVE A BIG  MOUTH! At least that's what everybody keeps telling me! If you SPEAK UP for God to tell THE TRUTH, the world and carnal Christians will persecute and hate you for it (2nd Timothy 3:12; John 15:19).

Whatever a pastor stops preaching against is what his church will fill up with in five years! As a fundamentalist Baptist Bible preacher, contending for the Christian faith is my calling. You cannot be a fundamentalist Christian without taking a stand for truth and righteousness, I don't care who you are. And you WILL be rejected as a misfit like Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer, not invited to play in any of the reindeer games because of your bright glowing Christian stand. And I'm not kidding about that either. Rudolph is a perfect illustration of what fundamentalist Christians go through all the time. In my case I am not allowed to attend their churches to worship God, because I am a troublemaker in their view. Galatians 4:16, “Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?

We Were Kicked Out of Family Baptist Church in Pensacola Over Modesty

If you are a young Christian lady who wears dresses and skirts all the time, the ungodly worldly tramps WILL mock, make fun, tease and harass you. They are jealous jerks! And if you are not strong dear young person, they will drive you to your knees if you let them and keep you there. I have seen quite a few young people quit living for the LORD under pressure from ungodly worldly peers. It just becomes too uncomfortable for them to maintain their stand. That is why you need Christian friends who love Jesus and won't make fun of you for doing right.

Me and my wife were recently kicked out of Family Baptist Church in Pensacola in 2025. The issue arose over the pastor's wife wearing sexy pants, and my fundamentalist website ministry that preaches against Christian ladies wearing pants. It was this particular article that perturbed Pastor Brad Moffett and his worldly wife. So much so, that he called us into his church office to throw the article in my face. That was very unethical what he shamefully did!

I mention in my ministry article a quote from one of Pastor Hyles' sermon, in which he rightly says: “I don't have a dirty mind, I have a man's mind.” Pastor Brad slandered Dr. Hyles, accusing him of being a dirty-minded carnal man for saying what he did. No, Brad Moffett is a henpecked liar and a fool. Any honest man knows that men think very differently than woman when it comes to sex. The old adage is true: When it comes to sex men are like microwaves; women are like crockpots. Men are aroused by sight; women by touch.

Brad went further, claiming that since the Bible says a man who walks in the Spirit won't fulfil the lusts of the flesh (Galatians 5:16), it shouldn't matter if his wife wears pants. That is one of the most wicked, foolish, incompetent, ridiculous and irresponsible things I have ever heard a pastor say in my life. No man walks in the Spirit all the time, and his wife wearing the attire of an harlot cannot be justified by blaming men (Proverbs 7:10). SHAME on Brad and his wife! 

You see dear reader, this is what I am talking about. They are ungodly neo-evangelicals, hating on me because I am taking a biblical fundamentalist stand for what is right, in this case MODESTY! In the 45 months that I attended Family Baptist Church, I never once made an issue or said a single word about any woman wearing pants in the church, but they found my website ministry and they made an issue, which led to us being kicked out of their church.

On April 30th, 2025, in his office in front of me and my wife, Pastor Brad Moffett boldly declared with wicked defiance against almighty God: I am not a fundamentalist! We could hear the contempt for Pastor Jack Hyles and us in his voice. Woe be unto any pastor who would say such a wicked and contemptible thing! By the grace of God, I am a Christian Bible-believing fundamentalist and I am not reluctant to say it loud and clear with humility.

In summary, to the same degree that you CARE about the accuracy of the Gospel, the purity of God's inspired Words, and maintaining high standards of morality—you will be persecuted and thrown under the bus by today's apostate Bible colleges and spiritually dead churches. Galatians 4:16, “Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?” The only pastors, pastors wives and laymen who are upset with me are those who don't want to fight the good fight of faith. They refuse to join the battle. They don't want to suffer reproach for the name of Christ. They don't want to be put outside the gate with Jesus.

Today's Disgraceful Pastors Refuse to Fight

I have met umpteen irresponsible pastors over the years. Case in point is Sean Quinan, a PCC intern pastor at the Lighthouse Baptist Church on Guam in 2018. Pastor Quinlan was eavesdropping on my personal conversations at church. I was talking with Brother Bill one evening after church outside the church's front door, in the parking lot. I made the true statement that “Bob Jones University sells corruptible seed and Quinlan went ballistic in anger. He scolded me in front of his church members (and I scolded him back), wrongly accusing me of “bringing controversies into “his” church.” Unreal.

This is what I am talking abut folks. Pastor Quinlan (who has since quit and gone back to PCC thank God) was only concerned with growing “his” church (which he even stated to me), but he has no desire to contend for the Christian faith by exposing error. I mean, what are we building? What's the purpose of building a church if the foundation is crooked? Psalms 127:1, Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain. Unless a church is sound in the faith, you're wasting your time whatever you're trying to build. There is no greater threat to today's churches than the Devil's modern English Bible perversions!!!

In the first place, Mr. Quinlan should have minded his own business instead of butting into my personal conversation.

In the second place, if there is one place in the world where you should be able to warn others about who is corrupting the inspired Word of God, it should be in a New Testament church. SHAME on Pastor Quinlan for scolding a solider of Jesus Christ for talking like a soldier! 2nd Timothy 2:3-4, “Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.” Did I mention that Pastor Quinlan works for PCC!!! That whole college in Pensacola is a pathetic joke today, spiritually lifeless. Listen, you're not a good Christian who is pleasing to God just because you never get your hands dirty, and never say anything to offend anyone. PCC are training the impotent pastors of tomorrow!

THANK YOU dear friend for your continued interest in my ministry blog. To God alone be all the praise, credit and glory (John 15:5). Even so, come, Lord Jesus!

Popular Fundamentalist Heresies

1st Corinthians 15:1-4, “Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures.”

I cherish this needful sermon by Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001) titled, “FUNDAMENTALIST HERESY.” In this tremendous sermon (preached on December 1, 1985, at the First Baptist Church of Hammond, Indiana) Brother Hyles refutes the following things that are often added to God's simple plan of salvation, thus perverting it:
  1. Give your heart to Jesus
  2. Ask Jesus to come into your heart
  3. Pray a Sinner's Prayer to be saved
  4. Church membership
  5. Baptismal Regeneration
  6. Sacraments
  7. Good Works
  8. Believing Jesus is the Son of God
  9. Repent of all your sins
  10. Accept Jesus as your Savior and Lord
  11. Become a Baptist
  12. Tithe
None of those things can help you get to Heaven. Some of those items are not fundamentalist heresies per se, but half of them certainly are.

From listening to corrupt neo-evangelical preachers on social media, I would like to add several more things to Dr. Hyles' list, things that are being preached in pulpits today that will send you to Hell if you trust in them:
  1. Become a Christ follower (Pastor Dave Snyder preaches this heresy)
  2. Live a lifestyle of repentance (Evangelist Ray Comfort preaches this heresy)
  3. Faithfully run the Christian race until the end (Dr. Steve Pettit preaches this heresy)
  4. Forsake a lifestyle of sinning (Pastor Marty Herron preaches this heresy)
  5. Ask Jesus to be part of your life (Evangelist Billy Graham preaches this heresy)
  6. Be willing to turn from your sins (Evangelist Jack Chick preaches this heresy)
  7. Let God take control of your life (Missionary David Cloud preaches this heresy)
RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS!!!

Jesus warned, “YE MUST BE BORN AGAIN” (John 3:1-7).
My hope is built on nothing less
than Jesus' blood and righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
but wholly lean on Jesus' name.

Refrain:
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand:
all other ground is sinking sand;
all other ground is sinking sand.

Beware Of Attacks Against Easy-Believism

Acts 2:41, “Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.

On the Day of Pentecost, the Bible says that among the several thousands of people that attended, there were 3,000 Jews who “gladly received” the Gospel message which the Apostle Peter preached and they were saved. Then they were baptized as a public profession of their faith. No one was interrogated to see if they were first willing to turn from their sins. No one was monitored for 6 months to see if their life changed to prove that their faith was genuine. No, they simply BELIEVED and were saved. Done deal!

Someone sent me this meme that they found on Facebook and asked for my opinion. This is it!

Blatant False Teaching Attacking Easy Believism!

This meme is way off base. In fact, it is out of the ballpark!
  1. “Your Grace Covers My Sinful Lifestyle. Faith Alone.” Like it or not, this statement is 100% biblically accurate! Romans 6:1, “What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? As saints we fall IN GRACE, but never FROM GRACE! Since we cannot be saved by doing GOOD WORKS, then we cannot be lost again by doing BAD WORKS. We get saved by repenting (changing our mind) to turn from DEAD WORKS (which includes all works, both good and bad alike), to trusting in Christ's sacrificial death on the cross as full payment for our sins, believing that Christ was buried, but then resurrected from the dead three days later (1st Corinthians 15:1-6).
  2. “Yes, Keep Sinning! Your Works Mean Nothing.” Romans 6:1-2, “What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? The inspired Holy Bible plainly commands every saint of God to depart from iniquity and walk in the Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:22-25). Whoever made this heretical meme is deliberately misrepresenting what the Bible actually teaches. Clearly, the meme's creator is conveying the false idea that to get to Heaven you must modify your behavior, which is self-righteous works, not grace. We get saved by faith alone in the Gospel (Romans 1:16); then the indwelling Holy Spirit works to change us as we grow in the sincere milk of the Word (1st Peter 2:2), growing in the grace of Jesus (2nd Peter 3:18), sanctified by the truth of God's Word (John 17:17).
  3. 1st John 3:6 and 8b, “Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him. ...He that committeth sin is of the devil.” The indwelling Holy Spirit cannot sin. When we sin as saints (and we all do every day), we do so in the flesh (carnal). If we take these Bible verses literally, then none of us are saved, because we all still commit sin as God's children (Romans 7:14-25). It would be foolish to base a doctrine on a single passage of Scripture without comparing Scripture with Scripture. We read in 1st John 3:24, “And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.” The evidence that we are saved is not turning away from sin. Judas “repented” of his sins in Matthew 27:3, but still went to Hell forever without Christ.

    When a believer sins, the indwelling Holy Spirit convicts us about it. God is not an absent parent. The LORD scourges and chastises His children when we sin (Hebrews 12:6-8), and this is what 1st John 3:6 and 8 are teaching. If you can sin without any conviction whatsoever from God's Holy Spirit, then something is very wrong and you need to examine yourself to see if you are in the faith.

    One of the problems with these memes is that they are very limited in how much information they can provide, so it become very easy to create heresy. 1st John 3:9, “Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.” Nearly everybody ignores this verse; the Bible says “he cannot sin” who is born of God. Well, that is obviously impossible, because we all still sin. So, what does the Bible means? It means that the indwelling Spirit of God cannot sin. When a person is saved there is a continual conflict between the flesh and the Holy Spirit, which the Apostle Paul well explained in Romans 7:14-25, “So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin” (Romans 7:25b).
  4. James 2:24 and 26, “Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only. ...For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also. - Again, I dislike using memes because they leave out information. The memes creator fails to mention James 2:18, “Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.” The Apostle James plainly says “shew me” your faith, and I will “shew thee” my faith. James writes about being justified in the eyes of our neighbour by works; whereas the Apostle Paul in Romans 4:1-7 writes about being justified by faith alone in the sight of God. The LORD looks upon the heart of a man (1st Samuel 16:7); but our neighbour who cannot see our heart, judges us by our works (Matthew 5:16). Granted, this is only a general guideline. We see that the accursed false prophets in Matthew 7:21-23 boasted of their “many wonderful works” done in Jesus' name, but they were not saved at all. James is NOT teaching that works are necessary to validate our faith, which would go against the plainest teaching of the Scripture (John 6:28-29, 40, 47; Galatians 3:26; Titus 3:5; Ephesians 2:8-9; Romans 3:19-20, 4:4-6).
Clearly, whoever made this horrible unbiblical meme does not believe in Easy-Believism. They do not understand God's simple plan of salvation.

What is Easy-Believism?

Why, it simply means that it is very easy to be saved! Jesus likened salvation to simply walking through a door (John 10:9). He likened getting saved to drinking a cup of water (John 4:10). Jesus likened the new birth to eating a piece of bread (John 6:51). Jesus likened getting saved to looking (John 3:14-16). Those things are all super duper easy to do!

Getting saved is the easiest thing in the world. Since Jesus has already paid for everybody's sins with His precious blood, you don't even have to “ask Him to save you. That's right! God is already freely offering you eternal life, and whosoever else wants it, just for the taking. All you need to do to be saved is to by faith (taking God at His written Word), accept Christ's sacrificial death on the cross as full payment for your sins, believing that He was buried, but then physically resurrected from the dead three days later. This is the Gospel (the GOOD NEWS), by which all who simply BELIEVE IT are instantly, irrevocably and forever saved (1st Corinthians 15:1-6; Romans 1:15).

Richard Albert Mohler Jr. (born 1959) has been the theologically incompetent President of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Hillcrest, Kentucky since 1993. The man is a brilliant writer and loves to read many books. In that respect, he is a man after my own heart. I humbly think Dr. Mohler is a good man and sincere in his beliefs. That being said, he is unfortunately WRONG on God's simple plan of salvation. ...
“We don't affirm easy-believism.” —Dr. Albert Mohler Jr.
'Have We Really Misunderstood the Gospel for 2000 Years?' (23:47 time in YouTube video)
What a fool! Dr. Mohler is openly a 5-point Calvinist, an infidel, as was his late mentor Dr. John MacArthur (1939-2025). These men are theologically dangerous, despite both being likable personalities and good men (as far as sinful humans go). Although I admire certain aspects of both men, I also loathe their corrupt view of God's simple plan of salvation.

Do you know why Albert Mohler denies easy-believism? It is because he thinks MORE than simple childlike faith is required to be saved, which you can read for yourself in this article. According to Mr. Mohler, you must also “repent of your sins” to be saved, and that is not an easy thing for anyone to do. To pressure a lost sinner to forsake their sinful bad habits in order to receive God's free gift of eternal life is a cruel thing to do, when even God Himself tells us that it is IMPOSSIBLE. Isaiah 64:6, “But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.” Your best (and mine) is absolute filth to God.

The ONLY righteousness that I possess is the imputed righteousness of God through faith alone in Jesus Christ. Philippians 3:9, “And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith.” Nowhere does the inspired King James Bible teach that to get to Heaven YOU must first reform to clean up your own life of sin. To do so is wicked self-righteousness, not the “fruit of the indwelling Holy Spirit (Jesus living the Christian life through us) as we are taught in Galatians 2:20 and 5:22-25.

The correct Bible teaching is that you come to Christ just as you are (as a dirty, rotten, good for nothing, stinking, guilty sinner) and God saves you by faith alone in His only begotten Son, Jesus; and then as a redeemed child of God, He gives you the gift of the Holy Spirit who produces fruit as you obediently walk in the Spirit. So, and please don't miss this truth, a changed life is the result of the “fruit” of the indwelling Holy Spirit in you as God's child; and not a result of YOU being willing to forsake your sinful behavior to get saved. I hope that you see the massive difference fried, because it means the difference between salvation or damnation.

In this article I expose Evangelist Ray Comfort for perverting the Gospel of free grace, in which Ray teaches the same garbage as Albert Mohler, that you must turn away from a lifestyle of sinning to be saved. Watch this poor unsaved woman on an airplane refuse to get saved after Ray Comfort tells her that faith is not enough to be saved, that she must also LIVE A LIFESTYLE OF REPENTANCE, to turn away from her sinning for the rest of her life. I would have turned his impossible offer down too!
Matthew 11:28-30, “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
Dear reader, the inspired King James Bible teaches that it is free, easy and simple to get to Heaven. Jesus has already done, not only the hard work, but all of the work! John 6:28-29-29, “Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God? Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. Jesus has already done all the heavy lifting for you! All that you need to do now friend, if you've never been born again, is to simply BELIEVE that Jesus did it all for you through Calvary's cross 2,000 years ago. That's it, that's all, no more!

You Cannot Be Confused On The Gospel And Be Saved

Acts 15:1 and 24, “And certain men which came down from Judaea taught the brethren, and said, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved. ...Forasmuch as we have heard, that certain which went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls, saying, Ye must be circumcised, and keep the law: to whom we gave no such commandment.”

The apostles replied to the controversy in Jerusalem by confirming that they DIDN'T teach the garbage being taught in town by the false prophets in Acts 15:1. Those hellbound lying false teachers were guilty of SUBVERTING MEN'S SOULS!!!

Dear reader, there is a dangerous idea circulating in some churches, Bible colleges and on social media today, which says if you're trusting the name of Jesus you're saved, regardless of what additional things you add to your faith. The Bible does not agree with such nonsense! 1st Corinthians 15:1-6 plainly defines “the gospel” for the reader as three things:
  1. Jesus DIED on a cross for our sins.
  2. Jesus was BURIED.
  3. Jesus physically RESURRECTED from the dead three days later.
In particular, many Baptists today think that all Baptists are saved. I can tell you assuredly that many Baptists are NOT going to Heaven (Luke 13:23-24). Like other pseudo-Christian cults today, those Baptists who adhere to the foolishness of Misunderstood Repentance and Lordship Salvation have churchianity without Christianity. I have been a Baptist since age 12 when I received Jesus as my personal Savior. Thankfully I have had godly teaches who were doctrinally sound (Jack Hyles, Curtis Hutson, Max Younce, Hank Lindstrom, Harry Ironside, et cetera). So, I have a right to critique my own denomination for their increasing apostasy and doctrinal flaws. RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS!!! HIGH MORAL STANDARDS MATTER!!!

There are approximately 47,000 member churches belonging to the apostate Southern Baptist Convention (SBC). A ministerial student in the SBC recently told me that he is in a good conservative church in the SBC. He is attending Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky. The student told me that he highly regards their religious leader, Dr. Albert Mohler Jr.. But dear reader, Dr. Mohler is an unsaved reprobate if the Bible be true! Sadly, that ministerial student has been blinded by the Devil and is wearing rose-colored glasses.

Richard Albert Mohler Jr. (born 1959) has been the theologically incompetent President of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Hillcrest, Kentucky since 1993. The man is a brilliant writer and loves to read many books. In that respect, he is a man after my own heart. I humbly think Dr. Mohler is a good man and sincere in his beliefs. That being said, he is unfortunately WRONG on God's simple plan of salvation. ...
“We don't affirm easy-believism.” —Dr. Albert Mohler Jr. 
SOURCE: 'Have We Really Misunderstood the Gospel for 2000 Years?' (you can read what he said in the transcript article; you can also hear him say it at 23:47 time in YouTube video)
Kindly said, what an incompetent religious fool! Only a fool denies easy-believism. Coincidentally, I heard an awesome sermon this morning by Pastor Jack Hyles from 1990 titled, “God's Memorial Day,” in which he makes this beautiful statement...
“You know why good works can't save you, 'cause there's no such thing as good works. ...The Bible says in Isaiah 64:6, even our righteousness is like filthy rags in the sight of God.” —Dr. Jack Hyles, “God's Memorial Day” (1990)

I also made this excellent excerpt today from the same sermon, in which Dr. Hyles defends the biblical truth of how easy it is to be saved. I titled the excerpt, “Easy Believism Defended” (John 3:14-16 says the Jews simply LOOKED to the brass serpent Moses' made to be saved from death, and likewise you get saved simply by LOOKING TO JESUS).

Dr. Mohler is openly a heretical 5-point Calvinist, which makes him an infidel, as was his mentor Dr. John MacArthur (1939-2025). These men are theologically dangerous, despite both being likable personalities and good men (as far as sinful humans go). Although I admire certain aspects of both men, I also loathe their corrupt view of God's simple plan of salvation. Getting saved has never been hard; it's easy, free and simple.

On his website, Dr. Mohler praises Pastor MacArthur's book, 'The Gospel According To Jesus' as one of the top 10 most important books written over the past 25 years. Dr. Mohler chose to quote this excerpt from Dr. MacArthur's toxic demon-spawned book...
The gospel in vogue today holds forth a false hope to sinners. It promises them that they can have eternal life yet continue to live in rebellion against God. Indeed, it encourages people to claim Jesus as Savior yet defer until later the commitment to obey Him as Lord. It promises salvation from hell but not necessarily freedom from iniquity. It offers false security to people who revel in the sins of the flesh and spurn the way of holiness. By separating faith from faithfulness, it teaches that intellectual assent is as valid as a wholehearted obedience to the truth.
Dear reader, what you have just read is the damnable heresy of 'LORDSHIP SALVATION.'

I am a graduate of Hyles-Anderson College (1985-1993). Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001) strongly opposed and preached against the Devil's falsehood of Lordship Salvation. Yet, I have heard pastors (graduates of Hyles-Anderson College) wickedly endorse John MacArthur and his demonic ministry. SHAME!!!

Dear friend, you cannot be confused and wrong on God's simple plan of salvation and be saved. I understand that there's always a natural temptation to give everyone the benefit of the doubt. “Well, she just doesn't understand the Bible very good, but she is still saved.” No, she is not saved if she trusts in turning from her sins to be saved, or is following Jesus as the “Lord of her life to merit Heaven. This was the fatal mistake the people made in Matthew 7:21-23. In Acts 15:1 those people made the fatal mistake of adding keeping the law to their faith, which blunder cannot produce the new birth by the Holy Spirit of God.

I wrote this blog to warn you dear reader not to fall hook, line and sinker for the deception that you can be wrong on the Gospel and still be saved. You cannot! You don't get to Heaven by “becoming a Christ follower,” which is a popular false teaching in SBC churches today, like the corrupt downtown First Baptist Church of Pensacola. I visited their Contemporary Service at 8:15 AM on a Sunday a couple years ago just to see what they're about.

At the end of the service Pastor Dave Snyder (the senior pastor) announced that a 12 year old boy in the church had “become a Christ follower” to go to Heaven, and everybody clapped for the young man. Folks, that boy didn't get born again!!! Did not Judas Iscariot follow Christ? Yes he did, but Judas sadly died in his sin of unbelief and is in Hell forever. Did not the crowds follow Jesus for a food handout? Yes, they did, but they were not saved, just like the accursed followers of Christ in Matthew 7:21-23. They boasted of their “many wonderful works done in Jesus' name. They called Jesus Lord, Lord and had followed Him devoutly, but they were not His sheep. They had failed to simply REST in the finished redemptive work of Christ through Calvary's cross (John 6:40; Hebrews 4:10-11).

There are approximately 9 million Jehovah's Witnesses, 110 million Lutherans, 17 million Mormons, 1.4 billion Catholics and 2 million followers of the Church of Christ who all trust in the heresy of Baptismal Regeneration (i.e., you must be water baptized) to go to Heaven. Not one person in the Bible was ever water baptized to be saved, they were always baptized AFTER they trusted Christ. And many believers were never baptized at all, such as the repentant thief on the cross.

Dear reader, make sure that you are doctrinally sound on the Gospel. Your eternal destiny weighs upon it. Here is a helpful book by my ministry friend Michael. P. Bowen titled, “I NEVER KNEW YOU, which excellent book will solidify your salvation beliefs if not already. I hope you will at least read the introduction. The book is based upon Matthew 7:23. I also wrote this helpful blog titled, The Gospel In 45 Seconds.” Going to Heaven is free, easy and simple. Faith is the only righteous thing that I can do.

Salvation is not a reward for the righteous, it is a gift for the guilty.

Salvation is not doing your best, it is having Christ's best put to your account through receiving Him by faith.

Turning away from sinful ways would be a work. Faith puts all of the merit where it belongs, on the object of our faith, Jesus and His work.

If to “repent” means to forsake our sinful ways TO BE SAVED, but Jesus already paid for our sins by dying on the cross, then what are we repenting from?

The true Gospel always points you to CHRIST; a false gospel always points to YOU.

One is saved by God's grace, through faith in the finished Work of His only begotten Son on the Cross, as payment in full as our pardon for sin. Jesus is precious!!!

The Sin Of Indifference Toward Gospel Accuracy

1st Thessalonians 4:13-14, “But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.”

The inspired Word of God clearly defines “the gospel” for the reader in 1st Corinthians 15:1-6. Yet, you'll hear preachers behind nearly every pulpit today embellishing, changing and perverting God's simple plan of salvation, adding words to the Scripture that God didn't say. Proverbs 30:5-6, “Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him. Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.” Case in point...

Pensacola Christian College Preaches Another Gospel

For example: I live in Pensacola. In my mailbox in 2023, I found an envelope from Campus Church at Pensacola Christian College (PCC) with my address and the words: “To Our Neighbor” on it. I opened the envelope and inside I found a booklet of “John & Romans.” The booklet has 64 pages in it. The Campus Church logo is printed on the front cover. I was shocked on page 60 when I read PCC's counterfeit plan of salvation. What I am about to show you from PCC was inspired by Satan dear reader:

“REPENTANCE — Now is the time to turn from your sin and embrace God. The act of turning away from sin is called 'repentance.' This word implies an inward decision to follow and obey God's will instead of your self-serving sins. It means changing your mind about sin and seeing it as something that grieves God. The Bible says that God patiently waits for all people to make this decision.” [emphasis added]
SOURCE: “John & Romans” by Campus Church at Pensacola Christian College, p. 60
Do you still think I bumped my head? I've been exposing the Calvinist religious cult at Bob Jones University (BJU) since 2014, and now I have been exposing the cult at Pensacola Christian College (PCC) since 2021. By God's grace, I will continue to expose these wicked organizations for perverting the Gospel. Tragically, 99% of clergy today couldn't care less! They merely want to follow the herd, laboring in the ministry for the INCOME, not the OUTCOME. Today's churches are pathetic!

Smyrna Baptist Church In Pensacola Is A Bad Place

Here's another example: When I attended the shameful Smyrna Baptist Church in Pensacola in 2024, the place was spiritually dead. Their incompetent pastor Bill Adams is a Zionist, wrong on Bible repentance, and has zero love for hurting people. When I shared my broken life, divorce and chronic health afflictions with him, he just ignored me. What a lousy pastor! His wife is even worse, who deliberately dissed me in September of 2024 to offend me; that was her ungodly way of saying: “We don't want you here!” I kindly contacted Pastor Adams twice about what she rudely did, but as expected he just ignored me, so I reasonably never went back again. There is no genuine love at Smyrna. Our churches are dying folks.

I humbly think I know what their problem is too. They've been going through the lifeless motions of playing church for so long (decades) that it has become mundane, boring and repetitive. To them it's just a means of keeping the money coming in (Romans 16:17-18). The fact that they're willing to lose members shows me that PCC is likely paying Pastor Bill Adams' salary. PCC takes in $175,000,000 annually, so they certainly can afford it. I have no doubt that his daughter gets free tuition at PCC. This is just speculation of course, but something is very wrong when a pastor and his wife couldn't care less about losing church members. I never caused them the least bit of trouble and quietly attended their church for 8 months.

The leaders at Smyrna and PCC woefully lack God's unconditional love for people. No wonder Smyrna is always 85% empty, and I told that to Bill Adams the last time I contacted him in September of 2024. They also distribute toxic Chick Tracts at Smyrna, perverting Gods simple plan of salvation. I guess it shouldn't surprise anyone that if they don't care about the accuracy of the Gospel in these cults, why would they care about a hurting sinner like me?

Wicked pastors and Bible colleges are so busy today making money that they have no interest in making waves, splitting hairs and rocking the boat by contending for the Christian faith, which will draw attention to themselves. Sadly, these big religious institutions today just want to quietly take in tens of millions of dollars and let the world go to Hell. God's curse is upon PCC! They refuse to suffer reproach for the cause of Christ. They refuse to be put outside the gate with Jesus. As a fundamentalist Baptist Bible preacher, I am outside the gate with Jesus and have been for decades, despised and rejected by ungodly neo-evangelicals. To no surprise, now PCC is offering engineering classes, going secular. What a shame!

John 4:22, “Ye worship ye know not what...” To their utter shame, I actually found FOUR different plans of salvation at PCC, which just shows how little they care about right doctrine. Making money is what concerns them the most, whose God the Bible says is their bellies (Romans 16:17-18).

Apathy refers to a lack of interest, motivation, or emotional response, often associated with a specific condition or situation; while indifference is a broader term that describes a general lack of concern or interest in any matter. Both involve emotional detachment, but apathy is often more specific to an individual's state or condition. I'd have to honestly say that at PCC you'll find both indifference and apathy, toward people and the Gospel. The place is a spiritual mess!

Over the past 24 years of faithful website ministry since 2002 (by the grace of God), I have been saddened to see how few professed Christians care about the accuracy of the Gospel, the purity of God's inspired Word, or loving hurting and broken sinners. There is a disturbing vacuum of God's unconditional love toward sinners in the churches today. This is largely because many of today's pastors have been trained by corrupt Bible colleges—by educators instead of church builders who woefully lack compassion for people, by educated fools who deny that we have a perfectly inspired Holy Bible in the English language today, and who have succumbed to the Devil's falsehoods of Lordship Salvation and Misunderstood Repentance.

Acts 4:13, “Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.” I care dear reader! If you walk with Jesus you will care too. That gets me into trouble sometimes. When you care you get upset. When you care you make a fuss and throw a fit sometimes. I get angry over false teaching! I get angry over the evils of abortion, the evils of homosexuals adopting children, the evils of women wearing dental floss wherever there is water in America, the evils of over-taxation, the evils of open borders, the evils of publishing hundreds of different English Bible revisions, et cetera. I CARE!!!

It frustrates me that I am one of only a handful of caring Christians today who cry aloud against the perversion of “turning from your sins to be saved. No such teaching is found in the inspired King James Bible, which is the only trustworthy English Bible today. It frustrates me that your average professed Christian nowadays is completely apathetic toward false doctrine, false Bibles, false prophets and even false Christs. RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS!!!

It's Okay If You Don't Remember When You Were Saved

1st Thessalonians 4:14, “For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.

I think I was saved at the early age of 12. To be honest, I don't remember the year that I was saved. It is true. For many years I assumed I was 13 when I got saved. But last year I gave it a lot of thought. My parents had removed me from public school at the end of the 6th grade, and I attended a Christian school at a local Baptist church in Chicago for junior high and high school for 6 years. That was the best decision my parents ever made to steer my life into the right direction for Christ. If they hadn't done that, guaranteed, I would have gone to the Devil.

I got saved shortly after I began attending Christian school at a local Baptist church. So, I was 12 to 13 years old. I wish I knew the year I was saved, but I don't. I know it was early summertime. Pastor Jack Hyles was saved at age 11. Dr. Curtis Hutson was also saved at age 11. Pastor Ralph Yankee Arnold was saved at age 18. Pastor Steven Anderson was saved at age 6. Pastor Harry Ironside was saved at age 17. It was in church. I remember the experience, but since I didn't tell anyone that I had been saved, no one could tell me to write down the date in my Bible. I wish that had happened, but it didn't.

The important thing is that I am trusting Christ now as my personal Savior. I know I wasn't born believing, but I believe now, so I must have been saved at some point in my life. I remember an experience in church on a Sunday morning. I remember that it was summertime. I remember that I felt convicted by the pastor's sermon.

During the invitation after the sermon, I clinched the back of the pew in front of me with my hands, and for the first time in my life I felt the Holy Spirit's conviction. I knew that I was a sinner. I was too shy to walk forward down the church aisle, but the best I knew how from my pew I asked the Lord Jesus Christ to save me. I believed that He died on a cross to pay for my sins. I believed that He was buried, but then physically resurrected from the dead three days later. I believed that I was calling out from my heart to a risen Savior, asking Him to please forgive my sins and save me from Hell. I never prayed audibly out loud, just silently from my heart.

I remember that in the days, weeks, months and years to come, I feared greatly that I was not saved. I desperately grabbed every piece of literature regarding salvation that I could get my hands on, but every tract and piece of literature that I could find ended with a requirement to pray a stupid sinner's prayer. That misled and confused me concerning God's simple plan of salvation. Since no one had ever taught me God's simple plan of salvation, I couldn't settle my assurance of it. It wouldn't be until I met Pastor Max D. Younce (1935-2023) online 25 years later that the Lord would finally solidify my salvation beliefs, and give me perfect peace in the matter of God's free gift of eternal life.

Dear reader, although there is nothing wrong and it is quite natural to ask, call or pray for God to save you, it is NOT necessary nor required by God to get to Heaven. What saith the Scripture? John 6:47, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.” Repeatedly in the inspired King James Bible we are told to simply BELIEVE the Gospel of Christ to be saved. Acts 10:43, “To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins. This one Bible verse proves Peter S. Ruckman (1921-2016), Robert Breaker, William P. Grady and Bible Baptist Church in Pensacola all dirty damnable liars!!! No one was ever saved by WORKS under the Mosaic law, they were saved by faith in Christ just as Acts 10:32 declares.

Dr. Bill Grady preaches a perverted view of repentance for salvation. Beware of the Ruckmanite crowd who are corrupt to the core. The greedy Bible Baptist Church in Pensacola are militant reprobates, distributing their toxic damnable Chick Tracts, and preaching another gospel of partial faith in Christ plus turning from your sinning. What they preach is religious quackery, not a free grace Gospel message! If a man is wrong on repentance you simply cannot trust anything that he says. It is like buttoning a dress shirt, if you get the first button wrong then all the buttons that follow will be wrong too.

It's okay dear friend if you don't remember when you were saved, I don't either. But you should remember a moment from your past when you realized that you were a guilty sinner, and you by faith (taking God at His written Word in the Bible) placed your trust (faith, reliance) in the name of Jesus Christ, believing that He died in your place on Calvary's cross; and believing that He didn't stay dead, Jesus physically raised up triumphant from the dead the third day.

You get saved by coming to God as a guilty sinner (Romans 3:19-20), and you by faith (taking God at His written Word in the Bible) accept Christ's sacrifice on the cross as full payment for your sins, believing that He was build, but then three days later bodily resurrected from the dead for your justification (because if Christ is still dead He cannot save anybody). I believe, do you? And remember, if salvation is truly by grace, then you don't need to start or stop anything to be saved. Eternal life is a free gift from God (Romans 6:23). 

Always Explain What It Means To “Repent“ If You Mention It To A Lost Sinner

Mark 6:5-6 and 12, “And he could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them. And he marvelled because of their unbelief. And he went round about the villages, teaching. ...And they went out, and preached that men should repent.”

It is tragic that 99% of the people who read our text passage of Scripture from Mark 6:12 will wrongly assume that to “repent” means “to turn from your sins.” However, as I have already done for you, if you examine the passage carefully we find that the issue at hand is not one's sins; but rather, “UNBELIEF” as we see in Mark 6:6. What those people in Jesus' own country where He grew up needed to get to Heaven was to repent of their UNBELIEF, not their sins. 

Not one verse in the inspired King James Bible teaches to “repent of your sins” or “turn from your sins” to get to Heaven. Wicked religious men added those words to God's inspired Word. Proverbs 30:5-6, “Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him. Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.” Should God's saints repent of our sins? Yes, absolutely (2nd Timothy 2:19). But to be saved, someone need only repent of their unbelief (Matthew 21:32).

And yet, if you research the pseudo-Christian cults (e.g., Mormons, Roman Catholics, Seventh-Day Adventists, Jehovah's Witnesses, Church of Christ, et cetera), they all pervert the biblical meaning of repentance to teach that you must turn away from your sinful ways to get to Heaven. That is works, not salvation by God's grace through faith alone.

Romans 4:4, “Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt. I love that Bible verse! If salvation has ever been merited by works at any time in human civilization, then God owed a debt to that individual, and it wasn't by grace. The Bible warns that this has never been the case. From this passage alone we KNOW that no one under the Mosaic law was ever saved by works, nor by partial faith plus works. According to Acts 10:43 remission of sins has always come only though faith in Christ.

The writer of the preceding counterfeit gospel tells the reader to “repent,” but he doesn't explain what that means. In today's wicked American culture where most churches falsely require people to be willing to forsake a lifestyle of sinning to be saved (which is reformation not repentance), it is absolutely necessary nowadays to explain what it means to “repent.”

I personally never use the word “repent” at all, simply because the Gospel of John (God's Gospel track according to John 20:31) doesn't mention the word “repent” even once. That is simply because repentance is automatically included with believing. That is, you have changed your mind from unbelief to belief when you trust Christ. Bible repentance simply means to “change your mind,” nothing more. The context of a particular Scripture passage provides the necessary supplemental information to know what we must change our mind about.

By deceptively merely requiring readers to “repent,” the reader can go either way in meaning and the questionable webpage creator knows it. Repentance means different things to different people, which is why it is so vitally important to explain what the word means if you ever use it. Like I said, I just don't mention repentance because it is not necessary.

A good illustration of repentance is flying from Chicago to Los Angeles. I can simply instruct you to fly to Los Angeles. It is not necessary for me to first tell you to leave Chicago, and then secondly go to Los Angeles. The same is true with leading someone to faith in Jesus. You can simply preach the Gospel (which means “Good News) to a lost sinner, without first telling them to leave their unbelief. This is exactly why we find the word believe mentioned 85 times in the Gospel of John, but the word “repent” is not mentioned even once.

You don't repent AND believe to be saved; you repent TO believe. Repentance facilitates believing. Please do as Jesus commanded in John 5:39 to 'SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES,' because 99% of churches and religious colleges are WRONG today on Bible repentance and God's simple plan of salvation. There are not 50 different shades of the Gospel, there has alway been only one plan of salvation (Galatians 1:6-9).

If you tell lost sinners to “repent” without explaining to them what it means, you are sending them up a potentially deadly creek without a paddle. You are woefully ignoring the reality that many false prophets are gone out into the world” (1st John 4:1b). Don't you dare ever tell someone to repent to be saved without explaining yourself, because 99% of Americans have been lied to by the religious cults, to think that repentance means to turn away from your sinful bad habits. By the way, the meaning of “repent” in our English dictionary is based upon the Roman Catholic understanding of the word, which is NOT the biblical Greek meaning.

Behavior modification has absolutely nothing to do with the new birth. A changed life is the “fruit” of the indwelling Holy Spirit after you get saved (Galatians 5:22-25). A change of behavior has NOTHING to do with repentance to be saved. Whatever changes God wants to see happen in your life after you get saved is His department alone, and you can be assured that He will attend to it. God is not an absent parent (Hebrews 12:6-8).

Our only part in getting saved is just to believe the Gospel (1st Corinthians 15:1-6). All that God asks is that you believe Jesus did it all for you through Calvary's cross. Nothing more is required or allowed dear sinner! The only thing that you and I contribute to our own salvation is the sin that made it necessary. Salvation is of the LORD (Jonah 2:9).

THANK YOU for reading my ministry blog. To God alone be all the praise, credit and glory.
