Beware Of The Occult Practice Of 'Contemplative Prayer'

Philippians 4:6-7, “Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”

The Bible simply teaches that prayer is asking God for something. When we talk with the Lord, that is fellowship, not prayer. Prayer is asking. The unbelieving world doesn't believe in prayer or God, so if you pray aloud someone will accuse you of being insane and call security on you. I know because I have had it happen to me.

I was at the U.S. Postal training center in Norman, Oklahoma in 1999. I was walking outside and talking aloud to the Lord, as I often do. Two thug security guards approached me and said some woman said some crazy guy is talking to himself. I told the guards I was praying. I couldn't believe what he said next. He actually told me to go pray in my room! Folks, that is a violation of my Bill of Rights. I could have hired an attorney and sued the U.S. Postal Service for millions of dollars, but I didn't. The U.S. Postal Service is one of the most incompetent, ungodly and irresponsible organizations in the world! Homosexuals dominate the management and labor workforce alike. One of the best days of my life was leaving that hellhole for a better life elsewhere!!! I hated working for the U.S. Postal Service for 15 years. 

After have my rights assaulted at the Norman, Oklahoma training center in 1999, I never went back to school there again. My manager on Guam tried to get me to go numerous times, but I refused, based on health reasons. My health concerns were legitimate, but I also refused because of having my freedom of speech violated at the training center. Friend, you can pray (or even talk to yourself) out loud at any time, at any place you want in public or private, and it is your God-given as well as legal right to do so freely. Obviously you shouldn't talk during a movie or while listening to someone else preach a sermon, but you have a right to pray anywhere out loud. If anyone ever tells them different, warn them that they could be sued.

It is important to first define “contemplative prayer.” Contemplative prayer is not just contemplating, thinking or meditating while you pray. Praying with our mind is not what “contemplative prayer” has come to mean. Contemplative prayer is very popular in apostate churches today. A recent popular religious film is called: “The War Room,” in which Pastor Tony Evans' daughters Priscilla Shirer (born 1974) stars. Miss Shirer is also a preacher, which automatically makes her a demonic false prophet. The Bible strictly, in no uncertain terms, forbids women from usurping authority over or teaching men in the church. Shame on Priscilla Shirer for disobeying God's Holy Word. She will be judged and shamed in Heaven!!!

Priscilla Shirer stars in the 2015 religious film, "The War Room." Sadly, Miss Shirer promotes the demonic occult practice of 'Contemplative Prayer.' Prayer itself is Biblical. What is prayer? Prayer is asking. If you are not requesting something from God you are not praying. Talking with the Lord is fellowship. I do both and so should you. I tell Jesus each day out loud that I love Him. I often talk in my car outloud to the Lord, and I also think out loud oftentimes.

A study was done decades ago that revealed that people who talk to themselves are more intelligent than the average person. I was encouraged to learn that, since I have always (even as a child) talked to myself. My father came into a room one day and asked me who I was talking to, and I said: “No one.” I have always loved talking to myself. Now if I ever start answering myself then I'll start to worry...lol. Talking to yourself is quite normal and acceptable, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

New age occultism includes speaking in tongues, which has its origin in witchcraft. Dear friend, NEVER speak in tongues. I once worked with a Christian black man who confided in me that he once spoke in tongues. I knew that he was deceived by Satan, because the evil tongues spoken by Pentecostals and Charismatics is nothing more than pagan mumbo-jumbo. It is a cheap form of entertainment (which makes false prophets very rich). On the Day of Pentecost, the Bible says that thousands of people HEARD the Gospel preached in their own native language, but the Apostle Peter only preached in the Greek language. So no one SPOKE in the miracle of tongues, the people HEARD in their own native tongue (language).

Contemplative prayer is not taught in the Holy Bible. I am sick and tired of hearing carnally-minded people say that prayer is a "good therapy." Heathens only see prayer and religion as something good in the sense that believing in a higher power has self-improving benefits. Because of the pathetic and lifeless condition of 97% of churches today, ruined by corrupt and lifeless Bible colleges like Pensacola Christian College (PCC), Americans are abandoning religion completely and forming non-religious community groups.

I do not like nor sanction the GotQuestions.org website, because they preach the Devil's lie of Lordship Salvation and Wrong Repentance, but they provide this helpful information exposing Contemplative Prayer...

Contemplative prayer begins with “centering prayer,” a meditative practice where the practitioner focuses on a word and repeats that word over and over for the duration of the exercise. The purpose is to clear one’s mind of outside concerns so that God’s voice may be more easily heard. After the centering prayer, the practitioner is to sit still, listen for direct guidance from God, and feel His presence.

Although this might sound like an innocent exercise, this type of prayer has no scriptural support whatsoever. In fact, it is just the opposite of how prayer is defined in the Bible. “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” (Philippians 4:6). “In that day you will no longer ask me anything. I tell you the truth, my Father will give you whatever you ask in my name. Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete” (John 16:23-24). These verses and others clearly portray prayer as being comprehendible communication with God, not an esoteric, mystical meditation.

Contemplative prayer, by design, focuses on having a mystical experience with God. Mysticism, however, is purely subjective, and does not rely upon truth or fact. Yet the Word of God has been given to us for the very purpose of basing our faith, and our lives, on Truth (2 Timothy 3:16-17). What we know about God is based on fact; trusting in experiential knowledge over the biblical record takes a person outside of the standard that is the Bible.

Contemplative prayer is no different than the meditative exercises used in Eastern religions and New Age cults. Its most vocal supporters embrace an open spirituality among adherents from all religions, promoting the idea that salvation is gained by many paths, even though Christ Himself stated that salvation comes only through Him (John 14:6). Contemplative prayer, as practiced in the modern prayer movement, is in opposition to biblical Christianity and should definitely be avoided.

Amen and amen! I fully agree with that information. We are now living in perilous times because of false prophets (2nd Timothy 3:1-7). Jesus warned that most people are going to Hell, and very few people are going to Heaven, because of false prophets (Matthew 7:13-15). People by nature are very impressionable, like sponges. Humans by nature are not objective. I encourage you to become objective, that is, start questioning everything. This is 100% Biblical. 1st John 4:1, “Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.” We are exhorted to "try" (test) the spirits. Satan is a spirit without a body. Demons also are disembodied spirits. Angels are spirits with bodies. Likewise, humans are spirits with bodies.

Our great and omnipotent God is a Holy Spirit (John 4:24). Hence, we live in a spiritual world. Every book, movie, play, school course, song, recording, speech, Bible revision, religion and anything produced by man has an induced spirit about it, inspired by the entity which produced it. Have you ever seen a scary movie that gave you a creepy and evil feeling? That is why humans enjoy (or don't enjoy) watching horror movies, because of the spirit which it conveys. But sometimes the Devil, and those who serve him, will intentionally put an evil spirit into movies and music. So the Bible exhorts us to test every spirit, to see if it is of the Devil or God. Contemplative Prayer has the evil demonic spirit of New Age and Occultism.

Satan is the god of this wicked world (2nd Corinthians 4:4)

A Beautiful Truth About Jesus From Isaiah Chapter 61

Isaiah 61:1-11, “The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn; To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.”

I love that! We read about, “The planting of the Lord.” What does this mean? God planted a tree of righteousness of Jesus Christ being virgin-born into the world. The Word of God took on flesh (John 1:1-3, 14). Jesus lived a perfect life as the sinless Lamb of God. Of all the people ever born into human civilization, only one was without sin, and that is Jesus Christ! God said that this seed, Christ, would grow into tree of righteousness (the saints) to bring beauty out of ashes. Christ is the seed which God the Father planted, to bring beauty out of the ashes of the destruction of Israel. As only God can do, He always takes lemons and makes lemonade. Friend, God can take all the bad choices you and I have made, our sins and failures, and the horrible things we have done, and use it all for His glory in ways we never could have imagined. We serve a very good God.

No good works that we could ever do could satisfy the holiness of God which demands justice. Most people think that going to Heaven is a matter of our good outweighing our bad. But what they don't understand is that God won't tolerate ANY bad. God is totally righteous, and His righteousness demands justice, punishment for sin. No matter how good we are, we have no evidence that we are perfect. To the contrary, all of the evidence shows that we are imperfect. We have all come short of God's glory (Romans 3:23).

Isaiah 61:10-11, “I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decketh himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels. For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Lord GOD will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.”

There is no God like unto our God!

Trusting And Loving Christ Are Two Different Things

John 14:15-17, “If ye love me, keep my commandments. And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.”

If a man truly loves his wife there should be some evidence to prove it. But if a husband doesn't love his wife, does that mean they are not legally married? No, it doesn't mean that at all. They are still married, even if they don't love each other as they ought. Obviously, one thing has nothing to do with the other. Salvation is the same dear friend. Every believer ought to love Jesus and there should be some evidence of it in our lives. But if that evidence doesn't exist, and we don't love God as we ought, that doesn't mean we are not a child of God.

I love this helpful quote from Pilgrim's Progress author, John Bunyan:

“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)

The only way you'll ever get to Heaven is to believe Jesus did it for you! Whether we love God as we should is not relevant. But wait, doesn't the Bible says that all believers love Jesus? 1st Corinthians 16:22, “If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anathema Maranatha.” The Bible simply means that if you are saved, Jesus is precious to you. 1st Peter 2:7, “Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,” But is it possible that you can get your priorities wrong, so that your love for the flesh is elevated as a higher priority than your love for Christ? Yes, you know it!

1st John 2:15, “Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.” Now, does this Verse in 1st John 2:15 means that a man is not saved if he loves the sinful world. No, it doesn't mean that. Consider Paul's fellowhelper in the ministry, Demas. 2nd Timothy 4:10, “For Demas hath forsaken me, having loved this present world, and is departed unto Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus unto Dalmatia.” Demas loved the world. Does that mean he wasn't saved? No, of course he was saved. Demas just had the wrong priorities in life.

It is important that you understand this truth, so you don't start doubting God's gift of eternal life if you choose to go live in the world in sin. Jesus said that if we love Him, we will keep His commandments, but that doesn't mean we aren't saved if we fail to love Christ as we ought. Anytime we choose to sin (and we ALL do), it evidences at the moment that our love for Jesus is not perfect.

Can a man cheat on his wife, but still love her? Yes, of course, but his love is corrupted, not perfect toward her. A man may provide for his wife, love her, care about her, and desire to do good things for her; yet, he may still elevate his lust of the flesh as a higher priority in his life than his love for his wife. The same is true of every believer's relationship with our heavenly Father.

By the way, this is a good time to mention the proper way to discipline children. When a child disobeys his or her parent, the child should feel a broken spirit, knowing that they disappointed Mom and Dad. A child being raised properly will feel remorse because they let down Mom and Dad, not angry because he is getting another spanking. Before any corporal discipline (a discipline method in which a supervising adult deliberately inflicts pain upon a child in response to a child's unacceptable behavior and/or inappropriate language, i.e., spanking), there should be an admission of wrong doing on the part of the child.

If you discipline a child who thinks you are being unfair, you will harden that child's spirit and make them bitter. It is very important that parents establish set rules in a home, and then when violated, have the child admit what they did wrong, and only then chastise them. If a parent has successfully convinced their child that they truly love and care about them, and have built a proper relationship with the child over time, the child should feel sorry and cry because they disappointed the parent, even before any discipline is administered.

By the way, NEVER use your hand to spank a child, lest they fear YOU! Use an appropriate device that won't harm the child physically. Proverbs 13:24, “He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.” The word “betimes” means “at an early age,” while there is still hope. Proverbs 19:18, “Chasten thy son while there is hope, and let not thy soul spare for his crying.” A father emailed me the other day, and said that his 7-year-old son confided in him that he thinks he is a homosexual, has thoughts of murdering his father, and thinks a demon is in his head. I am not kidding!

The father asked for my Christian advice. I kindly responded that I could guarantee one of two things: 1) the boy is enrolled in the Devil's public school system, 2) the boy has been watching garbage on TV. A 7-year-old child doesn't think in such evil ways unless that garbage was put into their mind by someone (wrong influences). I advised him while there is still time to enroll the boy into a Christian school, attend church as a family unit, listening to Bible preaching in the home as a family, and spend time going fishing, playing ball and building the masculine father/son bond. I sent him Pastor Jack Hyles' helpful book titled: "How To Make A Man Out Of A Boy."

But if a child rebels and grows up to break a parent's heart, are they still your child? Of course they are! Likewise, an adopted child of God may rebel against our heavenly Father, yet we are still born-again of the Holy Spirit (John 1:12-13; 1st John 3:24). We see evidence of this in 1st Corinthians 5:1-5, concerning the saved man who was living in a lifestyle of sexual immorality. The Apostle Paul advised the church leadership to confront the man about his open sin, and hopefully he will repent; but if not, Paul said “To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus” (1st Corinthians 5:5). There will be many believers who receive no rewards in Heaven, “but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire” (1st Corinthians 3:15). That is, they barely escaped Hell's fire by faith alone in Jesus, despite have no rewards for service.

1st Corinthians 3:13-16, “Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is. If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire. Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?”

This passage conclusively proves that the teaching of “Lordship Salvation” (i.e., Calvinism) is false. Pastor Ralph Yankee Arnold gives this accurate definition of Lordship Salvation:

“Lordship is the unsupportable and unbiblical belief, that the performance of good works, the promise of good works, or the evidence of good works, must accompany faith in Christ in order to establish or provide evidence that such faith has resulted in eternal life.” —Pastor Ralph Yankee Arnold (a quote from the sermon: “JESUS vs. John MacArthur”)

If Lordship Salvation were true, then the pitiful scenario in 1st Corinthians 3:11 couldn't exist. If such a believer hadn't persevered to faithfully run the race, he wouldn't have made it to Heaven, but HE DID anyway!!!

Salvation becomes ours when we trust Christ to SAVE us. Effective service is ours through OBEDIENCE. Salvation primarily involves the spirit and our eternal destiny; it is a gift (John 5:24). The only way you'll ever get to Heaven is to believe Jesus did it for you! Service involves the body and our present earthly life; it is labor for which rewards are given (Romans 12:1-2; 1st Corinthians 3:8-15; Luke 10:2).

How Do You Know You're Saved? (Pastor Yankee Arnold)

“Nobody goes to Heaven because he is good; you go to Heaven because you know you're bad, and you flee to Jesus Who died to save sinners.” —Pastor Jack Hyles (“God Only Saves Bad People”

Dear reader, if you are saved, how you choose to live as a child of God evidences how much you love your Savior; but it has nothing to do with the fact that you are justified on the sole basis of Christ's sacrifice on the cross, as payment for your sins.  

Jackie Gleason's Worst Fear Was Not Making Heaven

John 3:3, “Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

Known as “The Great One” (a nickname given to him by Orson Welles), famous TV personality Jackie Gleason (1916-1987) made some heartbreaking comments in an October 28, 1984 '60 Minutes' interview...

Jackie Gleason Errantly Says God Won't Send Him To Hell For One Sin

Here is some sad transcript from the interview:

60 Minutes: You did tell an interviewer once that your greatest fear in life was not making Heaven.

Jackie Gleason: Yes, if there is a Heaven and Hell, certainly anybody's fear is not making Heaven. Who wants to go to Hell?

60 Minutes: If you didn't make Heaven, I suspect you could hustle your way in though.

Jackie Gleason: I don't think so, no, that's too much for real to con your way in.

60 Minutes: Do you think you'd deserved it?

Jackie Gleason: Go to Heaven?

60 Minutes: Yeah

Jackie Gleason: If the rules are true of what you have to do to get to Heaven, I certainly don't deserve going there. But if God is what He has been said to be, I'm sure that He isn't vengeful. I'm sure that if you've committed a sin He's not gonna to send you to Hell for eternity.

SOURCE: Jackie Gleason,' 60 Minutes' interview on October 28, 1984; time - 25:01 minutes in video

Oh how wrong he was! Sadly, The Great One (as Gleason was famously nicknamed) didn't know The Great Physician! Although Jackie Gleason correctly understood that he was a sinner who didn't deserve to go to Heaven, he utterly failed to understand that even one sin can indeed send him to Hell for eternity. What saith the Scripture? James 2:10, “For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.” Whether you break all of God's commandments in the Holy Bible, or just one of them, it matters not because you become GUILTY in God's sight!

1st Corinthians 6:9-11, “Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.”

The two great truths you should take away from the preceding passage of Scripture is: 

1. Even one sin is enough to keep you out of Heaven.
2. Your sins must be washed away by the precious blood of Jesus.

You don't have to be good to get to Heaven, you've got to be completely perfect. Obviously no one is perfect. Jackie Gleason got that right. When he speaks of the “rules,” Gleason is talking about the Old testament law. There is actually TWO ways to get to Heaven. The first is to perfectly keep God's laws, never sinning one times, and you will deserve Heaven. But if you cannot live a sinless life (and no one has ever done so except Jesus), then you need someone else to pay your way. That is what Jesus did for you and me dear friend.

Jesus had no sin (Hebrews 4:15). All men are sinners (Romans 3:23). But Jesus was born of a virgin, having no earthly father. Jesus' Father is God in Heaven (Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:23). Jesus is the only begotten (biological) Son of God (John 3:16). 2nd Corinthians 5:21, “For he [God the Father] hath made him [God the Son] to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.” To get into Heaven, we need GOD'S RIGHTEOUSNESS, which is by faith in Jesus Christ.

It broke my heart watching this interview, seeing how ignorant Jackie Gleason was of the light of the truth of the Gospel. The Bible teaches in 2nd Corinthians 4:3-4 that Satan (the god of this world) blinds the minds of men to hinder them from seeing the light of the Gospel, lest they should be saved and go to Heaven. The Devil hates you dear reader, and has no plan for your life except to kill, steal and destroy you (John 8:44; 10:9-10).

Unfortunately, Gleason sincerely believed that God wouldn't cast Him into the Lake of Fire for eternity, taking vengeance upon him for his sins. Proverbs 14:12, “There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.” I don't think any rational person would assume that Gleason truly believed he had only sinned one time in his life. Gleason was just using a figure of speech, expressing his sincere opinion that God only punishes really bad people, not good people who sin here and there. I have no doubt that Mr. Gleason was a good guy, a friend to his friends, and an honest man, but I didn't know him. 

What I do assuredly know if that the Bible says all of our righteousness is as FILTHY RAGS to God. 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.” Why does the Bible say that? Why does the Bible teach that all the good things we do in life are worthless in God's sight. I mean, we know that God is a good, merciful and loving God. So why would He say in the Holy Bible that our best goodness is worthless to Him?

The answer is very simple. It is because no amount of good can make up for the bad we have done. Let's use an earthly example: The infamous gangster Al Capone (1918-1947) was a wicked man. His reign of crime only lasted for 7 short years! He went to prison at age 33, suffering from syphilis which eventually rotted his brain away! Capone was also a generous man. During The Great Depression, Al Capone set up food pantries in Chicago to give free food away to hungry Chicagoans. He distributed clothing and helped the people. 

Unlike most criminal gangsters, Al Capone did a lot of good too, and the people loved him. But dear reader, no matter how much good that Al Capone did, it couldn't compensate for the illegal brothels (prostitutes), speakeasies (illegal saloons), murder of fellow gangsters, and worst of all in the eyes of Uncle Sam... TAX EVASION!!! Capone was arrested, convicted and sent to prison for 10 years for not paying his taxes!!! Go figure!

Likewise, no amount of good that a human being may do can make up for the bad, not even if we had just committed one sin. Yes, God is love, but He is also a holy God, and His holiness absolutely demands justice! All sin must be punished! Someone must pay the price for wrong doing. That penalty is to burn in the fires of Hell forever. That rubs a lot of people the wrong way, because they'd prefer rather only to think about God in terms of His wondrous love. But what saith the Scripture? 2nd Thessalonians 1:8-10, “In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day.” Those who BELIEVE on the Lord Jesus Christ have been rescued from Hell.

Jackie Gleason was very wrong, God is a vengeful God, as we just read. God WILL send a person to Hell for eternity for just one sin. Unrighteousness cannot inherit the Kingdom of God. Every sinner must have his or her sins WASHED AWAY by the blood of the Lamb of God. 1st John 1:7, “But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.” Dear reader, have your sins been washed in the blood? Mine have, since I got saved at age 13 in 1980. The moment that you put your childlike trust (faith, confidence) in the Gospel (Good News) of Jesus Christ crucified on the cross, buried and bodily risen three days later (1st Corinthians 15:1-6), you are saved. That is, your sins (past, present and future) have all been cleansed in the blood of the Lamb of God. John 1:29, “The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.” Do you trust Him dear friend? If not, please don't delay another second, because today could be the last day of your life on earth!

I am firmly convinced that Jackie Gleason's worst fear came true, he missed Heaven. I am sad and grieved about that, because it means that he went to the only other place a person can go, which is to Hell forever (Revelation 20:11-15:21:8; Psalms 9:17). The Bible teaches in 2nd Peter 3:9 that God does not want anyone to perish in their sins and go to Hell. Our blessed Creator and Savior desires for all men to repent of their unbelief and come to Christ in faith to be saved. The choice is yours alone to make dear friend. God cannot be blamed if you or anyone else goes to Hell. 2nd Timothy 2:13, “If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.”

The Bible teaches that somehow, someway, everyone gets a chance to get saved during their lifetime. Titus 2:11, “For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,” But as we read in the parable of The Sower And The Seeds (Luke 8:11-15), the Devil comes along and captures the seed (the Word of God, the Gospel) from a person's mind and soul, so that they don't get saved. Have you believed a lie dear reader? Satan is a beautiful liar! Just as the conniving serpent beguiled Eve in the Garden of Eden, even so does Satan attempt to deceive everyone he can with another gospel, another Jesus and another spirit (2nd Corinthians 11:3-4). Please do not be deceived. How do you avoid being conned? Jesus tells us in John 5:39, “Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.”

In 1st Corinthians 15:1-4 the Apostle Paul defines “the gospel,” which he twice mentions is ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES! In John 20:31, the Apostle John says BUT THESE ARE WRITTEN (the entire Gospel of John), to convince the reader that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, so that we might BELIEVE and be saved. John 20:31, “But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.” Again and again, we read that the way to Heaven is ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES, and is WRITTEN in God's Word. In other words friend, if it ain't in the Bible it's garbage! Anybody who requires you to do something to get to Heaven, which is not found WRITTEN in the Scriptures, is false and a lie of the Devil!

He Died For Your Righteousness Too!
(a wonderful MP3 sermon by Pastor Jack Hyles)

There Is Only One Gospel

1st Corinthians 15:1-6, “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: And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.”

There is a massive dangerous religious cult all across America and the world today, who errantly preach that the Biblical Gospel includes repenting of your sins. By repenting “of your sins” they mean that you must turn away from sin with all your heart, hating and regretting your sin, feeling sorry for committing them, and be firmly committed to stop living a lifestyle of sin from now on. If you don't have this attitude toward sin, so that you will no longer wilfully commit lifelong sinful bad habits, they teach that God will not save you no matter how much faith you have in Jesus Christ. This is another gospel, accursed by God (Galatians 1:6-9).

Pastor Lester Roloff (1914-1982) rightly said:

“The worst pervert in America is the Gospel pervert!”  

—Lester Roloff, “The Gospel Perverts Or Jesus?”

Not one mention is made in 1st Corinthians 15:1-6 about repenting of your sin, turning away from sinful bad habits, forsaking the world, turning over a new leaf, surrendering all to Christ as “Lord,” running the race, exchanging all that you are for all that Jesus is, making public confession, water baptism, keeping the Sabbath, repenting of sin for the rest of your life, persevering in holiness, doing good works, or anything else. “THE GOSPEL” as Paul defines it in our text passage, which he received directly from Jesus Himself (Galatians 1:12), plainly teaches:

1. Christ died on the cross for our sins.
2. He was buried.
3. Jesus resurrected three days later.

This is the Gospel, meaning “Good News,” by which all men are saved who BELIEVE it. The Gospel is so simple that most men cannot help in their sinful pride but embellish it to include more. Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001) made these profound helpful statements:

“More people will die and burn in Hell, because they're trusting too much!”
—Pastor Jack Hyles, “Yea, Yea, And Nay, Nay!”

“Everything that's hard and complicated about salvation is God's side of it!”
—Pastor Jack Hyles, “Yea, Yea, And Nay, Nay!”

I encourage you dear friend to take the time to listen to the preceding sermon. It is wonderful.

Again, when a Roman Solder asked the Apostle Paul in Acts 16:30 what he must do to be saved, Paul's reply was profoundly simple, just BELIEVE on the Lord Jesus Christ! ...

Acts 16:29-31, “Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas, And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.”

Paul didn't tell the man to repent of his sinning, did he? No, Paul simply told him to BELIEVE. Paul didn't tell the Roman soldier to surrender all to Christ as “Lord.” Nor did Paul tell him to go get water baptized, join a church, run the Christian race faithfully to the end, forsake a lifestyle of sin, pray a sinner's prayer, live a lifestyle of repentance, count the cost and pay the price, or anything else!!! Paul simply said: BELIEVE ON THE LORD JESUS CHRIST AND THOU SHALT BE SAVED!!! The reason why is so obvious if we simply take the Bible at face value—because JESUS PAID IT ALL!!!

Why oh why do foolish preachers pervert the Gospel, corrupting the grace of God, complicating the simplicity that is in Christ? Dear friend, we are saved by GOD'S RIGHTEOUSNESS, which is by faith 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:” You see, neither you nor I have any righteousness to offer God. Our best efforts to please God are filth in His sight (Isaiah 64:6). That is why Jesus Christ, the sinless and perfect Lamb of God (John 1:29), went to the cross and took our burden of sin upon Himself, paying a debt that He did not owe because we owed a debt of sin we could not pay (2nd Corinthians 5:21). What a Savior!!!

You Could Be The Next Dwight L. Moody

Daniel 12:3, “And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.”

I had the blessed privilege of attended Hyles-Anderson College (1985-1993). It has been without comparison the greatest blessing and joy of my life. I decided as a teenager to enroll in Hyles-Anderson College for one reason alone—Pastor Jack Hyles!!! I loved and admired the man, because Dr. Hyles was a modern-day Dwight L. Moody, reaching the Chicagoland area with the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. ...

Chicagoland Youth Reached by Pastor Dwight Moody for Jesus

I had the wonderful privilege of voluntarily serving in the Bus Ministry for all 8 years at Hyles-Anderson College. I dearly cherish my memories of those times, and all the thousands of broken families, hurting lives and needy people who were impacted for Christ by our ministry labors in Chicago. I could tell you hundreds of great true stories of my years working in the Bus Ministry. May I say, every church should have a Bus Ministry! It is bar none the most effective method of reaching families and building men for Christ!

If we are to better the future, we must disturb the present.

I remember a particular day in class at Bible college. The teacher was teaching, smiled and looked at me, saying: “You David, could be the next John R. Rice!” I was humbled in my soul. I blushed a bit in front of my classmates, captivated by what my Bible teacher had said. I would never dare to compare myself to such a great man of God as Dr. John R. Rice (1895-1980). The Bible teaches that it is not wise to compare our self to others (2nd Corinthians 10:12).

Yet, I know that God's indwelling Holy Spirit can do the same great work through me that He did through John R. Rice, making an eternal impact for God. It is not about you, or me, dear friend, but about God. Zechariah 4:6, “Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.” I love a precious sermon by Pastor Jack Hyles called: “THE SPIRIT'S ABIDING,” in which Brother Hyles makes this excellent statement: “All is vain unless the Spirit comes down!” Yes, amen! I cannot do anything on my own to make an impact for eternity. I need God's Holy Spirit power.

What saith the Scripture? John 15:5, “I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.” We don't hear enough preaching from today's lifeless pulpits about praying down the power of God. Before I sit down to write and work for hours each day on the ministry God has entrusted to me, I pray for two things: God's wisdom, and God's Holy Spirit power. The Bible says that God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace (help) to the humble. James 4:6, “But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.” We are only humble when we are on our knees before God. Dear reader—GOD ANSWERS KNEE-MAIL!!!

After our class ended, we all exited the room and entered into the college hallway. One of my class peers approached me and sarcastically said: “The next John R. Rice, yeah, right!” He wasn't kidding, made evident by his unpleasant demeanor. That struck my heart with sadness, not because another student doubted my potential, but because he doubted God's potential. Dear reader, is there anything too hard for God? No, there's not!

What a great quote!

Pastor and Mrs. Moody and their children

Dwight Moody as an elder preacher.

Dwight Moody as a younger preacher

Here is some helpful biographical information about Pastor Dwight L. Moody (1837-1899):

Dwight L. Moody didn't attend school beyond the fifth grade; he couldn't spell, and his grammar was awful. His manners were often brash and crude, and he never became an ordained minister. Once, before his conversion, he so outraged an Italian shoe salesmen with a prank, that the man chased him with a sharp knife, clearly intending to kill him. Yet, Dwight L. Moody was used by God to lead thousands of people to Christ. Moody's life of Christian service began with his conversion on this day, April 21, 1855.

Dwight came to Boston as a teenager from Northfield, Massachusetts, and he felt all alone in the big city. The boy was desperate for work. An uncle took him on as a shoe salesman--on condition that he be obedient and that he attend Mt. Vernon Congregational Church. The young man had been raised in a Unitarian church which denied the full divinity of Christ and did not emphasize human need for salvation from sins. Now Dwight heard about those things. But he decided that he wanted to enjoy the pleasures of the world and wait to get saved until just before he died.

However, the kindness of his Sunday School teacher, Edward Kimball, turned young Moody into his life-long friend, and encouraged him to persist in his church attendance and regular Bible reading. Though Moody did try to read the Bible, he couldn't understand it. Kimball later said he had never seen anyone whose mind was as spiritually dark as Dwight's.

That changed on this day, April 21, 1855. Kimball came to the shoe store to ask Dwight to commit his life to Christ. Dwight listened closely and became a Christian that day. Immediately he began sharing his faith with others, including his own family. They wanted nothing to do with his faith. "I will always be a Unitarian," his mother said. (However, she converted shortly before her death.)

And at first Dwight Moody wasn't allowed to become a church member. Asked what Christ had done for him, the nervous boy replied that he wasn't aware of anything particular. Leaders felt that was an unacceptable answer.

When Moody later moved to Chicago he wandered the streets to find young boys to bring to his Sunday School class. He had a passion for saving souls and determined never to let a day pass without telling someone the gospel of Jesus Christ. Often he irritated strangers on the street by asking them if they were Christians -- but his pointed questioning stirred the consciences of many. God used the converted shoe salesman to become the leading evangelist of his day.

Estimates vary, but Dwight Moody is thought to have led as many as a million people to confess faith in Christ. Among his many achievements on either side of the Atlantic was the founding of Moody Bible Institute.

SOURCE: Dwight L. Moody Was Converted

Amen and amen! You my dear friend could be the next D.L. Moody! Now, let me say that God DOESN'T want you or me to become the next Dwight Moody. Yes, you read that correctly! God wants me to be the best D.J. Stewart that I can be by His grace and power. God doesn't expect me to try to be anybody else.

I love musical instruments! Specifically, I love all kinds of stringed instruments. I love harps! I bought one and started to learn to play it, but ultimately gave it away because it just wasn't for me. I started playing acoustic guitar at age 15. I also tremendously love playing the 5-string banjo. By God's grace, I'm pretty good at it. At age 25 I took up pedal steel guitar, which has been (and continues to be) the musical passion of my life. I can jump in with a band and play along, with no practice whatsoever. God has given me a good understanding of the steel guitar, and an equal burning passion to play it! I absolutely LOVE the steel guitar!!! When I someday get to Heaven, God knows that my great heart's desire is to make music with other musicians and singers, playing pedal steel guitar, banjo, lap steel and guitar on a regular basis (Romans 8:32).

My favorite lap steel guitar artist is Jerry Byrd (1920-2005). My favorite pedal steel guitar artist is Lloyd Green (born 1937). Having said that, I learned a long time ago that I shouldn't try to become these men in my playing. It is as frustrating as it is impossible!!! But what I do is learn from them, by studying their techniques, licks and song arrangements. By doing so I can incorporate their ideas into my own steel playing, to enhance my knowledge and skills.

Humbly said, I think this is a good illustration of the Christian life. I cannot be Dr. Jack Hyles, who is my hero of the Christian faith. But I can learn principles, wisdom and character lessons from him, to apply to my own life. That is why I love listening to Bible preaching so much, because I am learning valuable truths that I can apply to my own life, and also to share with others. Believe me, it is well worth the time spent listening to preaching during fair weather, so when tragedy strikes and the storms of life suddenly come, you will have a reserve of Biblical truth to guide you through the storm.

Dear friend, God can use you in a great way, just as He did Pastor Dwight L. Moody. That is my message to you in this blog. I am just a humble guy with a website. I make no claims of being an apostle, or even of being a good Christian. I am just a struggling redeemed sinner, who desires in my soul to help others, and be a blessing for God. I like what the Gospel preacher John Wesley said: 

“Do all the good you can. By all the means you can. In all the ways you can. In all the places you can. At all the times you can. To all the people you can. As long as ever you can.” ―John Wesley (1703-1791)

I feel exactly the same! I just want to be a blessing for Christ to everyone I can. God can, and desires to, use anyone who is yielded to Him. James 4:7-8, “Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.”

'The Great Commission' Is More Than Soulwinning

Matthew 28:19-20, “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.”

God's ultimate desire is for EVERY believer to mature to win souls. God didn't save us just to give us fire insurance to escape Hell. God didn't merely save us so that we could remain idle, Sitting On The Premises at church instead of Standing On The Promises in our daily life. God desires for all saints to obey The Great Commission. 

Sadly, for most Christians it is The Great Omission!!! The Great Commission is fourfold:

1. Go ye into all the world.
2. Teach all nations the Gospel to get them saved.
3. Water baptize converts as a public profession of their faith.
4. Teach them all things concerning Christ, so they can go win souls.

The idea behind The Great Commission is to perpetuate the Gospel from one generation to the next. If you were to take a single penny and double it every day for 30 days, you'd have over $1,000,000. It is true, if you do the math for yourself you will see. Likewise, there is exponential power in obeying The Great Commission.

I hear so many Baptist preachers boast of the number of souls they got saved, but how many of those converts have matured in the Lord to go soulwinning? I am not being unkind or criticizing soulwinners, I am simply saying that The Great Commission is more than getting people saved; we are also supposed to mentor our converts, to teach them how to go soulwinning as well. I praise God for every soulwinner. But greater is the soulwinner who trains his converts to win souls too.

Certainly, we cannot save anybody. God alone saves the lost. God gives the increase (1st Corinthians 3:7-9). Our job is to preach the Gospel, and pray for God's Holy Spirit to convict the minds and hearts of unbelievers, so hopefully they will be turned from darkness unto light.

I am leery every time I hear a preacher bragging about the number of people he led to Christ. I won't mention the guy's name, but if I mentioned the name of a Baptist missionary, nearly everyone would recognize his name. I read online where he was bragging that throughout his ministry he has led 200,000 people to Christ. I wonder how many of those alleged 200,000 people saved are attending a church somewhere? I wonder how many of those alleged converts are serving God today, following Jesus as His disciple? I wonder how many of them have matured to preach the Gospel with the lost? I am not being critical of soulwinning preachers, but I have a problem with showboat preachers who go around bragging to everyone about their own success, with no evidence whatsoever to back up their claims!!!

I praise God for soulwinners! But whether we plant a seed of the Gospel, or water that seed which someone else planted earlier, or have the blessed privilege to reap a soul saved to Christ, God alone must get ALL the credit, glory and praise, for without Jesus we can do nothing (John 15:5). I highly recommend a soulwinning seminar by Pastor Roger Jimenez. Winning souls is not an option for the Christian believer, it is a royal command from our blessed Savior (Matthew 18:19-20; Proverbs 11:30; 1st Corinthians 9:16). Mark 16:15, “And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.”

If You're Not Upset And Angry, Then You Are Not Paying Attention

 Matthew 12:34, “O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.” Matthew 23:33, “Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?” Galatians 1:6-8, “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. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.”

I sometimes apologize to God for my anger. I really get upset over false doctrine, ignoramus Bible professors, and foolish pastors who stand behind the pulpit each Sunday to lie to people with their tommyrot foolishness. Dear friend, I love people. I LOVE EVERYBODY! I do not hate anyone, not even my worst enemy. Quite the contrary, I love them. The Bible commands us as God's children to love our enemies. Luke 6:35, “But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.”

But having said that, the Bible also commands us as believers to HATE EVIL. Psalms 97:10, “Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.” If we spend time reading and studying the inspired King James Bible, we WILL HATE EVERY FALSE WAY. Psalms 119:104, “Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way.” I make no apologies for hating the Devil's false Bibles. I make no apologies for hating the Devil's Calvinism (aka, Lordship Salvation). I make no apologies for hating the Devil's Misunderstood Repentance, which says God won't save someone unless they first desire to forsake a lifestyle of sin.

I am so sick and tired of ignoramus preachers, who won't let people get saved without sacrificing something in return to get that gift. Folks, salvation is the free gift of God (Romans 6:23; Ephesians 2:8-9). Salvation is not a trade or an exchange!!! Salvation is not a reward for the righteous, it is a gift for the guilty. I make no apologies for hating the things which God hates! Proverbs 6:17 says that God hates a LYING TONGUE! Proverbs 6:19 teaches that God hates a false witness that speaketh lies.

Pastor Marty Herron is a false witness. Herron destroyed the Harvest Baptist Church on Guam as their senior pastor between 1999 and 2018. The Bible says that one sinner destroyeth much good. Ecclesiastes 9:18, “Wisdom is better than weapons of war: but one sinner destroyeth much good.” Today Mr. Herron is the spoiled executive vice president of the Faith Baptist Bible College And Theological Seminary. I hate Marty's lies! I do not hate Marty! I love him with Christ's love, and he knows it; but I love Jesus more, therefore, I am compelled Biblically to REBUKE HIM SHARPLY (Titus 1:10-14) because Pastor Herron is subverting whole households with his damnable heresy. Marty Herron preaches a false gospel, requiring people to repent of their sin to be saved. With my own two ears, I heard Pastor Herron tell hundreds of people at the Harvest Baptist Church on Guam in 2014, that they must forsake a lifestyle of sin before God will save them. Dear reader, forsaking your sin equates to KEEPING THE LAW, which is a counterfeit plan of salvation (Romans 3:19-20).

I was sickened on July 14, 2021 at Pensacola Christian College's Campus Church, as Pastor Tim Zacharias lied to thousands of people, requiring them to change their behavior to prove that their repentance and faith were real. That is another Gospel. The Bible says God's curse is upon anyone that preaches another gospel (Galatians 1:6-9). Friend, there are not variations of the Gospel. The Devil is so subtle. Somehow or another Satan tries to ADD works to the Gospel. If he cannot add works before salvation, he will add works at the time of salvation. If Satan cannot add works either before or at the time of salvation, he'll add works after salvation. But this is not salvation at all dear reader, it is a counterfeit plan of salvation. WORKS have no place in God's plan of salvation. Pastor Jack Hyles gets it 100% right, in this beautiful excerpt from his classic sermon titled: “A Burden Versus A Call.”

Folks, right doctrine matters! That is the jest of what I am saying. We've got a bunch of shallow pastors who are dropping the ball for God. I'm talking about Jeff Redlin. I'm talking about Timothy Zacharias. I'm talking about Marty Herron, Steve Pettit, John MacArthur, Gary Walton and Charles Phelps!!! These wicked men all preach a skewed gospel message that confuses people. Jeff Redlin and Tim Zacharias sinfully bid Godspeed to the accursed Bob Jones University camp with their Calvinist counterfeit gospel.

While I'm faithfully REBUKING THEM SHARPLY (Titus 1:10-13) for preaching damnable heresy, the PCC camp are sinfully going alone with BJU like everything is okay, but it's not. Nothing is okay at Bob Jones University when they are damning student's souls to Hell with a false gospel of Lordship Salvation!!! Why am I being belittled by Pastor Jeff Redlin for doing what he doesn't have the backbone to do, TO STAND against evildoers (Psalms 94:16)? 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.”

Pastor Jeff Redlin will one day have to give account to God for critiquing my website ministry (Galatians 6:7; Matthew 12:36; Romans 14:10-12), for falsely accusing me of finding “weaknesses in preachers,” while Redlin sat idle and did absolutely NOTHING to “earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints” (Jude 1:3b). Dear reader, that is what happens when you pay a shallow man like Jeff Redlin over $100,000 per year as the senior pastor of a giant lifeless barren church!!! Luke 16:13, “No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.”

Pensacola Christian College (PCC) is lifeless today, far more focused on making money than soulwinning. They cannot even get repentance correct, errantly teaching, and I quote verbatim: “Repentance is a change of mind which results in a change of behavior.” No Sir, you are mightily mistaken! Repentance unto life compels a man to BELIEVE the Gospel, and nothing else! The changes in a new believer's life are produced by the indwelling Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:22-25). The woeful great danger in what Campus Church is falsely teaching, is that naïve people in their religious cult will associate a change of behavior with salvation.

So when they sin (and we ALL continue in sin as believers), they will doubt their salvation, thinking that they didn't repent enough of their sins at the time of salvation. I know what I am talking about folks, because I get thousands of emails every year, many from people who were confused after being corrupted by ignoramus pastors like Jeff Redlin and Timothy Zacharias at Pensacola Christian College's Campus Church. SHAME on them for perverting the grace of God. Repentance does not result in a change of behavior. And for that matter, neither does salvation always result in a change of behavior. The Holy Bible is full of carnal Christians who continued in A LIFESTYLE OF SIN (e.g., Cain, Lot, Samson, Rahab, Solomon, Demas). Samson chased immoral women his entire life and ministry, shaming the name of Christ (Judges 16:1). But he was still God's man! We must NEVER tell anyone that the way they choose to live, has anything to do with the free gift of God, which is eternal life. One thing has nothing to do with the other. We are saved by grace through faith alone. Likewise, Jesus lives the Christian life through us by faith alone (Galatians 2:20).

Dear friend, if you are not upset and angry, you're not paying attention. My regular blog readers know that I am always harping in my preaching against the perverse Bob Jones crowd, and the complicit Pensacola Christian College crowd. I didn't go looking for these fights, they came to me. When I first started attending Campus Church in July of 2021, I never said a single word about my website ministry to Pastor Jeff Redlin, yet he learned about my ministry from someone else who criticized my work to him, and Redlin took the liberty to speak evil of my labors for Christ. So that left me no choice, if I am to be true to my preaching, but to expose Campus Church along with the Bob Jones crowd because they are wickedly fornicating in bed with them!

The man who operates their radio show at PCC, has a son who operates the radio station at the corrupt Harvest Baptist Church on Guam. Harvest is a cesspool of Bob Jones nitwits, who preach the Devil's Lordship Salvation, and promote the Devil's corruptible seed (there's your fake news). In fact, Harvest Baptist Church on Guam has over TWO DOZEN different Bible versions circulating in their pews on any given Sunday, a house of confused people. Those poor people don't know which way is up spiritually, being foolishly led by corrupt men of Belial. 

But they all label me as the troublemaker, the bad guy, because I was the ONLY ONE who cared enough to warn them, to TELL THE TRUTH!!! I know that my blessed Savior is very proud of me, and is very angry at Pastors' Marty Herron, Joe Hansen, Jared Baldwin, Gary Walton, Jeff Redlin, Sean Quinlan and all of the incompetent pastors who side with heresy. Folks, the PCC camp is deep in bed with these infidels at BJU, looking the other way as Calvinism is being preached and taught to tens of thousands of unfortunate people. RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS!!!

I care because God cares. Satan wants us to SHUT UP, but God wants us to SPEAK UP!!! Calvinism is not the Gospel of free grace. Lordship Salvation is not the Gospel of free grace. Misunderstood Repentance is not the Gospel of free grace! It is high time that we as believers stop hobnobbing with the Devil's religious crowd, and start becoming defenders of the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. What they are preaching at the Harvest Baptist Church on Guam is tommyrot! What they are preaching at Bob Jones University today is balderdash, claptrap, flapdoodle and poppycock!!! See, I know my Greek...lol.

Dear reader, I love people, which is why I am compelled by the indwelling Holy Spirit of God to PREACH THE WORD. 2nd Timothy 4:2, “Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.” I am being instant in season and out of season, saying it like it needs to be said. Yes, I may mash on someone's toes quite often, but I only do it because as the humble shepherd boy David said in 1st Samuel 17:29b, “Is there not a cause?” Yes dear friend, there is a cause! The souls of men, women and children are at stake. If this is all just a big money-making game, we might as well all become atheists. Christianity was never intended by God to be deteriorated into a stinking business. Campus Church alone at PCC last year took in $3,500,000. Yet they cannot even get the doctrine of repentance right. That is disgusting!!!

Listen, repentance is simply a change of mind. It is a change of mind about whatever it is that has been hindering you from being saved. Repentance is NOT something that you need to stop doing, or give up, or forsake, to be saved. As long as you BELIEVE, you have repented. It is that simple dear friend. That is why we read the word "believe" 88 times in the precious Gospel of John, but not once do we find the word "repent." That is because repentance and faith go together, like love and marriage, like a horse and carriage, as singer Frank Sinatra would say...lol. You can't have one without the other!

Yes, you do need to repent to be saved, but the person who BELIEVES has repented. If you hadn't repented (i.e., changed your mind), then you wouldn't have believed. The insane idea in thousands of churches today, which says that your faith is not genuine unless you have repented (turned away) from your lifestyle of sin, is of the Devil. That is NOT the Gospel of free grace! It is no less than requiring people to KEEP GOD'S LAW to be saved, which is another gospel accursed by God almighty (Galatians 3:1-3). You get saved by coming to God as a guilty needy sinner, receiving the virgin born Son of God's sacrifice on the cross as payment for your sins, believing that He raised up 72 hours later (1st Corinthians 15:1-6). John 20:31, “But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.”

Right Doctrine Matters!
