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.
