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 Don't Need To Pray To Be Saved

Romans 10:13-15, “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!”

It is okay to “call” on the Lord [which doesn't necessarily mean audible prayer, but rather simply going to the Lord (invoking Him) in the silence of your soul to ask Him to save you]. That is what I did as a 13 year old young man. But then I learned many years later that I could have just as easily believed the GOOD NEWS of Christ crucified, buried and risen, and I would have been saved without calling.

It is important that you know this truth, because I needlessly worried for several years that I might not be saved, wondering if I didn't understand something correctly when I prayed. I knew that prayer didn't save me, faith did, but I was misled by ignorant Baptist pastors and cartoon evangelist Jack Chick to think that prayer was the vehicle by which you placed your faith in Christ, since every sermon and religious tract that I read ended with leading the reader or audience in a prayer. You don't need to pray to get to Heaven, you simply need to trust the dear Savior.

For that reason today I NEVER lead a lost sinner to pray to be saved, because they don't need to pray to get to Heaven. And anyone who teaches differently in woefully contradicting the Holy Scriptures. According to John 20:31, the Gospel of John is God's Gospel tract, which contains the word “believe” 88 times, but you won't find the word “repent” mentioned even once. That is because repentance is automatic! You simply need to acknowledge that you are a needy sinner, so that you will BELIEVE THE GOSPEL to be saved. That is repentance! Since we know that BELIEVING the Gospel is all that God requires to get to Heaven, then whatever repentance is, it cannot be something that we need to do in addition to believing. What do we need to change our mind about? UNBELIEF!

Regarding sin, you only need to admit that you are a guilty sinner in need of God's free gift of forgiveness, paid for by Jesus on the cross. Nothing more is required or permitted by God in His simple plan of salvation. Men always complicate things. God's plan of salvation is simple. To be saved you simply need to admit you are a sinner, and receive Christ's sacrifice on the cross as payment for your sins, believing that He was buried, and then raised up from the dead three days later (otherwise how could a dead Christ save anyone?). These three facts comprise THE GOSPEL (1st Corinthians 15:1-4). This is the ONLY way to get to Heaven dear friend.

“If Christ Is Not Lord Of All, He Is Not Lord At All” HERESY!

Romans 14:8-9, “For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's. For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living.”

I am so sick and tired of hearing the unbiblical cliché: “If Christ is not Lord of all, He is not Lord at all.” Nothing could be further from THE TRUTH of God's Word! The unbiblical idea that Jesus Christ is either in absolute control of your life, or else He is not your Lord at all, is of the Devil. Yes, in fact, Jesus can be only partial Lord of your life:

2nd Chronicles 25:1-2, “Amaziah was twenty and five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem.  And his mother's name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem. And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, but not with a perfect heart.”

King Amaziah only served the Lord half-heartedly! Christ was NOT the supreme Lord of his life. I think I can safely say that most genuine Christians today do NOT serve God with a perfect heart. And I can tell you assuredly with 100% Biblical certainty that ALL believers still commit sin every day (Romans 7:14-25; 1st John 1:8-10). No one has arrived. There's not one saint on the planet who can be lifted up as an example of what all the rest of us should be, if the truth be known. 1st Timothy 5:24, “Some men's sins are open beforehand, going before to judgment; and some men they follow after.”

Dear reader, the day that you became a born-again child of God (which is by faith alone in the Gospel of Jesus Christ), Jesus also became the supreme Lord of your life. That is, He became your Master! Jesus is “LORD,” you don't make Him Lord. Our text passage from Romans 14:8-9 proclaims that Jesus died on the cross, was buried and resurrected miraculously from the dead, so that He could be Lord of both the dead and the living. That is interesting, why the dead? It is because even the unsaved dead must acknowledge their mistreated Creator and spurned Savior:

Philippians 2:8-11, “And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”

I am fully convinced that guitarist Eddie Van Halen went to Hell. Eddie was a Roman Catholic, trusting in the manmade sacraments of the Vatican, and the empty words of some unholy priest to save him, but that is NOT the saving truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Salvation must be without human works! God doesn't save anyone who is trying to be saved, He only saves those who are trusting to be saved. Everyone will someday bow their knee before the God and Creator of the universe in eternity, and confess with their tongue that “Jesus is Lord!”

Thankfully, you don't need to make Jesus the “Lord” of your life to get to Heaven, you simply need to receive Him personally as your Savior. The Gospel of John is God's Gospel tract according to 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.” God authored the Gospel (Good News) of John, to convince the human reader that Jesus is the Christ, the only begotten Son of God, and that by BELIEVING we will be saved. That is the ONLY way to get to Heaven.

I feel sorry for members of the demonic Bahai Faith (of which singer Dan Seals, aka, England Dan, was a devout lifelong members), because in their religion they teach that there are many paths to Heaven. But what saith the Scripture? John 14:6, “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” No, Dan Seals, there are not many paths to Heaven, there is only one, and that is through faith in Jesus Christ. I am so sick and tired of this damnable heresy of “Lordship Salvation” today! You don't have to take Jesus as your Lord and Savior to get to Heaven, you just need to take Him as your SAVIOR!!!

What saith the Scripture? 1st Timothy 4:10, “For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.” Jesus is the Savior of ALL MEN, especially of those that BELIEVE ON HIM!!! So if you go to Hell forever, it will be by your own foolish choosing, because your rejected your dear Savior and His free gift of eternal life which was purchased for you with His blood.

So it is not true that: “If Christ is not Lord of all, He is not Lord at all.” That is a stupid thing for anyone to say, even though it does sound good. It is true though, that Jesus is either your Savior, or else He is not. But it cannot be both or partial. When false teachers say that Jesus must be “Lord of all” in your life—they mean that in order to get to Heaven you must faithfully serve God, follow Jesus no matter what the cost, repent and turn away from your sinful lifestyle, live a lifestyle of repentance from sin, faithfully run the Christian race until the end, count the cost and pay the price, carry your cross, et cetera. NONE of those things comprise THE GOSPEL by which we are saved (1st Corinthians 15:1-4).

I don't care who you are, if you are a redeemed child of God, blood-washed and your name is written in Heaven, JESUS IS NOT THE TOTAL LORD OF YOUR LIFE!!! I will be the first to admit that Jesus is not the absolute Lord of my life. Is Jesus my Lord? Yes, of course, absolutely. He became the Lord (Master) of my miserable life the day that I received Him as my personal Savior in 1980 at age 13 in Chicago. But I do not submit to Him very well. I have many faults, sins and short-comings as a child of God. I long for the glorious future day that my soul and spirit are no longer chained to the body of this death, and Jesus resurrects me with a new body fashioned like unto His resurrected glorified perfect body (Philippians 3:21). Even so, come, Lord Jesus!!!

No saint can honestly profess that Jesus is 100% the Lord of their life. I sure can't. And neither can you friend. You and I can only do our best in Christ's strength to live the Christian life by faith to please God. Galatians 2:20, “I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

Ga:2:21: I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.” A lot of Bible students only read Galatians 2:20, lifting it out of context. But there is a beautiful truth tucked away if your interpret Galatians 2:20 in the proper context.

The churches at Galatia had fallen prey to a works-based religious cult (Galatians 3:1-3), who insisted that in addition to placing one's faith in Jesus Christ, you still had to keep the law, turn away from your sinful ways, follow Jesus as “Lord” and live the Christian life faithfully to get to Heaven. This is exactly what the accursed Seventh-Day Adventists (SDA) teach today. Sadly, it is also exactly what Bob Jones University (BJU) and most of their corrupt graduates and affiliates are also teaching; namely, pastors' Marty Herron, Jared Baldwin, Joe Hensen, Gary Walton, Steve Pettit, Chuck Phelps, John MacArthur, et cetera.

And tragically, Pensacola Christian College (PCC) wickedly bids BJU Godspeed, hobnobbing with the wicked Harvest Baptist Church on Guam (which is a cesspool of BJU alumni). I had attended Harvest Baptist Church on Guam for an entire year, and I can tell you assuredly that they preach hardcore Calvinism (aka, Lordship Salvation). They use, sell and promote the Devil's corruptible seed (i.e., the damned modern PERversions of the Bible). They also preach a perverted understanding of repentance, unbiblically requiring lost sinners to give up their sinful bad habits as a prerequisite to going to Heaven (which is self-righteousness). Bible repentance is merely “a change of mind” (Greek noun: metanoia) from unbelief to BELIEVING THE GOSPEL. Forsaking one's sins is not repentance, it is reformation! Living a changed life is NOT repentance, it is reformation!!! Judas reformed and went to Hell.

So, yes, Jesus is the Lord of every believer's life, but that doesn't mean that I always follow Him as my Lord. You must understand dear reader that SERVICE (discipleship by works) is something entirely different than SALVATION (justification by faith). My favorite preacher quote is by Pilgrim's Progress author, John Bunyan (1628-1688):

“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.” —Evangelist John Bunyan

That is exactly what the heresy of Lordship Salvation is—a failure to put a difference between SALVATION (justification from without) versus SERVICE (sanctification from within). We must keep these two great doctrines separate, or else we corrupt the Word of God and utterly confuse the people (especially in the churches).

Another one of my favorite preachers, Pastor M.R. DeHaan (1891-1965) said it this way:

“There is a vast difference between coming to Jesus for salvation and coming after Jesus for service. Coming to Christ makes one a believer, while coming after Christ makes one a disciple. All believers are not disciples. To become a believer one accepts the invitation of the Gospel, to be a disciple one obeys the challenge to a life of dedicated service and separation. Salvation comes through the sacrifice of Christ; discipleship comes only by sacrifice of self and surrender to His call for devoted service. Salvation is free, but discipleship involves paying the price of a separated walk. Salvation can't be lost because it depends upon God's faithfulness, but discipleship can be lost because it depends upon our faithfulness.” —Pastor M.R. DeHaan, Hebrews; Zondervan Publishing House, 1959 (p. 117)

Boy that is good stuff! Dear friend, if you are saved Jesus is your Lord. Receiving Him as “Lord” has nothing to do with getting saved; but rather, after you are saved the dear Savior wants you to pick up your cross and follow Him. This according to Romans 12:1-2 is the believer's “reasonable SERVICE.” Please don't miss that, it is our SERVICE for Christ, not our SALVATION through faith in Christ.

And then if you are not saved, Jesus is still Lord. You may have rejected Him as your personal Savior, but He is still your Savior (you just don't want to be saved). That is what 1st Timothy 4:10 teaches. One day in eternity you will bow to Him as Lord, and confess with your tongue that He is Lord. Even Satan himself, old smutface, will bow his knee to confess that Jesus Christ is the King of kings, and Lord of lords. Oh yes, it will happen, you have God's promise of it dear reader. That is what Philippians 2:9-10 teaches.

The only fools running around saying: “Either Christ is Lord of all or He is not Lord at all,” is the Calvinist crowd, the Lordship Salvation cult! It is possible to become a born-again believer, and yet still choose to remain in sin, living like the Devil. Yes, you CAN accept Jesus as your personal Savior, but still not be willing to submit to Him as the Lord of your life. That is grace dear friend! Romans 6:1, “What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?” If you and I choose to continue living a lifestyle of sin, grace will abound.

Certainly, there will be some inner change when a person gets saved, because now that person has the indwelling presence of God's Holy Spirit in them (Romans 8:9), but those changes may not be visible outwardly. I have heard ignorant preachers say that where there is fire there is smoke. Their point is that you cannot have God's Holy Spirit living inside of your spirit, soul and body without some outward evidence becoming visible. Dear friend, that is simple not true. Some of the most evil people in the world go around smiling all the time. President George W. Bush murdered 1,455,590 innocent people in Iraq, but he was always smiling as U.S. President, like everything was a big joke to him. Remember, Satan comes to the world disguised “as an angel of light” (2nd Corinthians 11:13-15).

There is no way for you to determine if someone is really saved by examining their life. The only way to know for certain is by the direct testimony from their mouth concerning Jesus Christ. I like what my friend Pastor Ralph Yankee Arnold said:

“Lordship Salvation 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 to establish or provide evidence that such faith has resulted in eternal life.” —Pastor Ralph Yankee Arnold, "Jesus versus John MacArthur"

You don't have to take Jesus as the Lord of your life to be saved dear friend, you just need to take Him as your Savior. Always remember to keep SERVICE completely separate from SALAVTION. I went to the Pensacola Interstate Fair last night. The fair has been hosted in Pensacola since 1934. I had a good yesterday afternoon. I went to the circus and watched all the amazing acrobatics (and pretty girls...lol). I saw the fancy horses and amazing fire dances. I ate plenty of great food. I always enjoy going to fairs.

But then I walked into the exhibit building where all the religious nuts were The Jehovah Witnesses had a booth set up. Gideon's International had their own exhibit booth, promoting their corrupt Devil's Bible PERversions. And lo and behold, I met another heretic from of all places, Pensacola Christian College!!! Go figure! He was a younger fella with his own booth, with a big tattoo on his forearm. He handed me some little stupid booklet with a smiley face on the front, which didn't contain enough truth to convert a caterpillar! I asked him kindly and without hesitation... “You're not preaching Lordship Salvation I hope?” He replied: “If Christ is not Lord of all, He is not Lord at all.” SHAME on Pastor Jeff Redlin at Campus Church for not teaching his congregation better!!! It is actually God's flock (Acts 20:28), which God has entrusted to the incompetent pastors at PCC's Campus Church. Unbelievable!

Campus Church at PCC has their members at the Pensacola Interstate Fair preaching the Devil's Lordship Salvation!!! Go back to Hell Pensacola Christian College with your Lordship Salvation!!! I know exactly where they got that from too—from spiritually fornicating with the accursed Bob Jones University camp (who have become hardcore Calvinists in recent decades). Dr. Steve Pettit (president of BJU since 2014 is a dangerous false prophet!!!

The sad reason why that young man at the Pensacola Interstate Fair is promoting Lordship Salvation is because PCC's shameful leadership and pastors AREN'T contending for the faith. That young guy doesn't know any better! Pastor Phil Kidd is right, whatever a preacher stops preaching on is what his church will fill up with in 5 years!!! The PCC camp are filling up with Lordship Salvation because their rotten pastors refuse to PREACH AGAINST ERROR!!!

Six Perverted Gospels

Galatians 1:7 “Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.”

The following excellent article was authored by Evangelist Allen Domelle...

A Perverted Gospel 

Paul was amazed that the Galatian church was so quick to receive another gospel. These believers accepted the true Gospel to get saved, but they allowed the Gospel to be perverted by “smart” people who were smarter than God because what these “smart” people said was the Gospel was not the Gospel.

Paul said to them, “… there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.” The word “pervert” means twisted, distorted, misconstrued, and corrupted. In other words, they twisted the Gospel just a bit, but twisting the Gospel always makes it a false gospel. The Gospel doesn't need to be twisted or distorted to make it work; it is powerful enough the way God gave it to us to save any sinner.

Sadly, the same battle that Paul fought we still fight today. There are some who are considered “smart” people who pervert the gospel of Christ. The “smart” people are pretty dumb to think that their gospel is better than God’s. Always remember that the gospel of the “smart” people will send a person to Hell, but the Gospel of Christ will always take a person to Heaven. Let me point out to you several perverted gospels of which you must beware.

First, beware of a bloodless gospel. There are some who say only the death is necessary, but God says that the blood is needed for an atonement for our sin. A bloodless gospel is a dead gospel that will not pay for one sin.

Second, beware of a works gospel. There is no work that will ever pay for your sins. You can try to be good, but the problem is that you are still a sinner. You cannot work yourself to Heaven because Christ’s sacrificial death is the finished work and the only work needed for salvation.

Third, beware of a baptism gospel. Baptism has not saved one person. Just because you are baptized does not make you saved. You can get baptized many times, but every time you will come out of the water a sinner on your way to Hell. The waters of the baptismal have never paid for one sin and will never pay for anyone’s sin.

Fourth, beware of a selective gospel. There are some that say only certain people will get saved. The Gospel of Christ says that “whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) 2 Peter 3:9 says that the Lord is “not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” A gospel that says that only someone is selected before they are born to get saved is a perverted gospel.

Fifth, beware of a conditional gospel. The conditional gospel says you accept Christ as your Saviour, but you can lose it if you don’t work to keep your salvation. Let me remind you that the Gospel of Christ not only saves you, but it keeps you until you get to Heaven. 

Sixth, beware of a difficult gospel. There are some who want to make it so difficult for a person to get saved that they never lead a person to Christ. My friend, the hard part of the Gospel was done on Calvary, but the easy part is up to the sinner to simply trust Christ. Let’s be careful about making the Gospel difficult and let the power of the Gospel save those who trust Christ and call on Him to save them. SOURCE 

The Danger Of Embellishing The Gospel

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 am tired of hearing preacher after preacher embellish the Gospel, so that people cannot see the clear light of the truth of the Gospel. The Bible tells us in 2nd Corinthians 4:3-4, “But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.” The Devil's greatest weapon is to con people into living the Christian life without ever being born again. Hundreds of millions of religious people all across the world are living the Christian life. They attend churches. They sing hymns and religious music. They tithe. They love each other and serve in their church and community. They give money to missions and to help the needy. They can talk about religion for hours and hours. They are good people by all human standards of decency.

But they have never been born again, which happens only by faith alone in the Good News of Jesus Christ crucified, buried and risen the third day. God the Father sent His only begotten Son, Jesus, into the world to be despised, rejected, beaten beyond human recognition, and then brutally crucified as a common criminal. 2nd Corinthians 5:21, “For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.” Jesus paid a debt that He did not owe, because we owed a debt that we could not pay.

I fully agree with Pastor Curtis Hutson (1934-1995), who said:

“But we've so muddied the Gospel, that when men want to make a decision to trust Christ, we've made it so complicated that they can't make a simple decision to 'Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved.' We'll say, 'If you don't do this' or 'You don't do that' or 'You haven't done that,' you're not saved'; but the truth of the matter is that when asked in the Bible, 'Sirs, what must I do to be saved?,' one clear simple answer was given to him — 'Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved.'” — Pastor Curtis Hutson, “Things That Are Different Are Not The Same” (preached at Southwide Baptist Fellowship on October 3, 1994)

I know a local Baptist pastor who always teaches people to have a “relationship” with Jesus. Although every child of God does have an adopted child/father relationship with God, it is also true that Judas had a “relationship” with Jesus, as one of His very apostles, and yet Judas still went to Hell to burn in fire forever. So we ought not use such unbiblical terminology. You will not find the word “relationship” anywhere in the King James Bible. We not just use the term that Jesus used, which is to BELIEVE. John 6:47, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.”

Anyone who requires more than faith alone to get to Heaven is a liar! YouTube is filled with wannabe preachers, who are woefully ignorant of the Word of God. Sadly, they have tens of thousands of followers, a hundred times or more what the average church has in average Sunday attendance. Renee Roland is one them, a false teacher on YouTube. Renee has another spirit, preaching the Gospel while denying that an eternal Hell exists. That is another spirit, which the Apostle Paul warned us about in 2nd Corinthians 11:3-4. We should completely avoid anyone who denies the reality of a burning Lake of Fire (Revelation 14:11; 20:11-15; 21:8).

Dear reader, let's keep the Gospel message simple, so everybody can get saved who want to.

“There is power in this Gospel message. Most people just don't know how to present it... The clarity of the Gospel is what makes it easy for them to believe.” —Pastor Yankee Arnold, a quote from the excellent MP3 sermon titled, “WHY GRACE CAN SAVE THE WORST MAN!”

The Gospel In Just One Minute

(by Pastor Max D. Younce)

The Bizarre Teaching That People In The Old Testament Were Saved By Works

Romans 4:1-5, “What shall we say then that Abraham our father, as pertaining to the flesh, hath found? For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath whereof to glory; but not before God. For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness. Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt. But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.”

Perhaps the biggest fool who preached the Devil's untruth that people were saved by works under the Mosaic law was Pastor Peter S. Ruckman (1921-2016). Sadly, he has an army of dingleberry followers; such false teachers as, Pastor William P. Grady. This man is a dangerous false prophet who ought not be allowed to speak behind any pulpit. Listen to Dr. Grady for yourself teach that no one in the Old Testament ever had eternal security. Bill Grady teaches a salvation without Jesus. It is hard for me to know that Dr. Grady was one of my Bible professors at Hyles-Anderson College in the late 1980's, for “Biographies Of Great Men.” Dr. Grady is an excellent history teacher, but sucks as a Bible professor!

I cannot warn everyone enough to avoid Peter Ruckman, William Grady (a die hard Ruckmanite), Robert Breaker (a graduate of Ruckman's cult), Bible Baptist Church in Pensacola (founded by Peter Ruckman) and other infidel heretics in the religious world today. These are stooges, not men of God. Robert Breaker is extremely popular on YouTube, who has amassed tens of thousands of followers. In 2016, 2017 and other years Mr. Breaker foolishly set dates for the Rapture, which obviously didn't happen.

Only a false prophet sets a date for Jesus' return, which sadly includes Pastor Steven Anderson! Brother Anderson errantly teaches that the Rapture will happen 75 DAYS after the prophetic event known in the Bible as the Abomination of Desolation (Matthew 24:15). Kindly said, that is incompetence in the pulpit. Thankfully, Pastor Anderson is correct on a free grace Gospel, minus his false teaching that praying is the Bible method to be saved. RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS!!!

Romans 4:4 plainly teaches that if salvation at any time in human civilization had ever been by works, then God owed that individual eternal life as a debt reward, and it could not have been a gift given freely by grace. We know that salvation has always been solely by God's grace.

Acts 10:43 plainly teaches that “all the prophets” give witness that remission (Greek: aphesis, which means: “freedom”) of sins came only though faith in Christ. It has always been only through faith in the Messiah that anyone has ever received freedom from the condemnation of God, which our sins have brought upon ourselves. There is freedom in Christ dear reader! John 8:36, “If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.”

Please reject the strange doctrine that says people were saved by works during the Old Testament, because it is absolutely false. And please avoid any false teacher in the clergy who has succumbed to this Satanic damnable doctrine. Salvation has always been and always will be by God's grace without works. Galatians 1:6-9 is very clear that there has always been only one Gospel, not multiple plans of salvation.

Furthermore, I am tired of hearing liars claim that Peter and James preached a different plan of salvation than Paul and Jesus. It is simply not true; they all preached THE SAME plan of salvation for Jews and Gentiles alike, which is through faith in Jesus Christ. Nowhere does the inspired King James Bible teach that people were saved by works under the Mosaic law, nor that there were multiple plans of salvation. Galatians 3:26, “For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.”

Beware Of The “Have A Relationship With Jesus” Heresy

John 3:1-3, “There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him. 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.”

From nearly every church pulpit today, and on nearly every radio station, and in nearly every religious book written and throughout social media—you will hear the unbiblical rubbish taught, that to get to Heaven you must “have a RELATIONSHIP with Jesus.” It reminds me of a broken record that just keeps repeating over and over again. The big problem is that nowhere does the inspired Holy Bible require us to start a relationship with Christ to be saved.

In fact, Judas Iscariot did have a personal “relationship” with Jesus, but he still went to Hell in his sins to burn forever. How tragic and sad! The simple truth is that you don't get to Heaven by starting or maintaining a personal “relationship” with Christ. What the Bible DOES teach is that: YE MUST BE BORN AGAIN!

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.”

You can have a personal relationship with Jesus and still go straight to Hell when you die. What you had better do is GET BORN AGAIN! What saith the Scripture? John 1:12-13, “But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.” You receive the supernatural miracle of the new birth by placing your childlike faith (trust, reliance) in Jesus Christ alone.

Any needy sinner who by faith (taking God at His Word as recorded in the Scripture) receives Christ's sacrifice on the cross as full payment for their sins, believing that Jesus was buried, but then physically resurrected from the dead three days later is instantly, irrevocably and eternally saved (1st Corinthians 15:1-4; Romans 1:16). 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.”

It is very wrong, unbiblical and misleading to merely tell a lost sinner that they need to have a “relationship” with Jesus to have their sins forgiven. The Bible says that you must TRUST upon the name of Jesus to be saved! Since we have never actually met the person named Jesus, all we can do is to trust (rely) upon His precious name. God understands this, which is why John 1:12b says, “to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name...” It is perfectly okay to place your faith in Jesus' name, believing that He died in your place on the cross to pay your massive debt of sin. Thank God for the cross of Calvary that Jesus died upon for my sins!!!

Please don't ever mislead anybody by telling them to begin a “relationship” with the Savior. Although it is true that every Christian believer has a relationship with Jesus as God's adopted child (Romans 8:15), you don't acquire that relationship by starting the relationship. You acquire it by being BORN AGAIN, which is through faith alone in Jesus Christ. Galatians 3:26, “For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.”

When the unsaved Philippian jailor asked Paul and Silas how to be saved in Acts 16:30, they did not tell the man to have a “relationship” with Jesus. No, they said in Acts 16:31b, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.” The word relationship doesn't even appear once in the entire inspired Holy Bible! Satan has effectively obscured God's simple plan of salvation, by filling the churches with all sorts of unbiblical embellishments, religious jargon and the commandments of men (Mark 7:9).

In so do, well-meaning but wicked religious people have perverted the Gospel of free grace, blinding the lost to the light of the truth. 2nd Corinthians 4:3-4, “But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.” It is a very dangerous thing and a serious offense against God, to tamper with the plain Gospel as proclaimed clearly in the Word of God...

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:”

There you have it, 'THE GOSPEL':

1. Jesus DIED on a cross for our sins
2. He was BURIED.
3. Three days later Jesus RESURRECTED from the dead.

So where in the world do today's corrupt pastors get the WRONG ideas that to get to Heaven you must: turn from your sins, forsake the world, live a lifestyle of repentance, live a changed life to prove that your faith is genuine, surrender all to Christ as “Lord,” become a Christ follower, get water baptized, keep sacraments, observe the Sabbath Day, do good works, et cetera? They are all dirty infidel liars!

Some Dangerous Ideas Taught From The Pulpit Today

Mark 4:24, “And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be given.”

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.”

In this blog I want to write about three major false ideologies I have heard pastors teach, which are dangerous and unbiblical.

Lie # 1 - Christians Shouldn't Correct Someone's False Doctrine

I heard a local Baptist pastor in Pensacola say something last year that made me cringe. He said that no one has a right to judge another Christian's doctrine. He said that no one knows everything about the Bible, so it is arrogant to have a superior attitude that you're always right about doctrine. He warned the congregation that since they could be wrong in their understanding of the Word of God, they ought never correct other believers with whom they disagree doctrinally.

Kindly said, that pastor needs to get right with God! The inspired Holy Bible couldn't be more clear that we get saved by receiving Jesus as our Savior (John 1:12), not our Lord (Matthew 7:21-23). Billions of religious people have followed Jesus as their “Lord,” but went straight to Hell when they died. You don't get saved by following, serving, worshipping or loving Jesus. You get saved by receiving His 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 official “Gospel” as defined in the inspired King James Bible (1st Corinthians 15:1-6).

Tragically, most pastors today have been woefully deceived, so that they are now preaching the Devil's lie of Lordship Salvation. Pensacola Christian College is teaching the damnable heresy of Lordship Salvation. Bob Jones University is teaching the Devil's deception Lordship Salvation. Pacific Garden Mission and their 'UNSHACKLED' radio program are preaching the Satanic lie of Lordship Salvation. They are all deadly liars and false prophets, accursed by God almighty for preaching “another gospel” (Galatians 1:6-9).

I have been shamefully scolded, despised and even banned from attending numerous churches, simply because I befriended their incompetent pastors with THE TRUTH that Lordship Salvation and Wrong Repentance are NOT God's simple plan of salvation. And also because I told THE TRUTH that all modern English Bible revisions have been corrupted by Satan. The pastor I mentioned earlier is sincere, but he couldn't be more wrong that we ought not correct someone else's false doctrine. I will kindly warn anyone I come across who foolishly thinks that they must “turn from your sinful bad habits” to get to Heaven. That means Chick Jacks are dangerous and need to be exposed and shunned!

Kindly said, that Baptist pastor is effectively teaching that we ought not earnestly contend for the Christian faith. If I foolishly think that just because I am not God and might be wrong on some issues, that I should just keep my opinions to myself and not try to help some one who believes wrongly, then I am no friend at all. There are numerous issues that we cannot be dogmatic on; for example, where did Cain get his wife, how big is the universe, where did Jesus go when He died, et cetera. However, there is no controversy when it comes to God's simple plan of salvation, Jesus' bodily resurrection, Jesus' deity, the Godhead, et cetera. Shame on the pastor who makes excuses for not contending for the faith.

Bible preachers have a biblical obligation to warn everyone, as a Watchman. You had better believe that I am going to criticize, rebuke sharply and “earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints” (Jude 1:3; Titus 1:10-11). I am not arrogant for thinking that I am right that repentance DOESN'T mean to “turn from their sinful bad habits” to get to Heaven. That is not merely my opinion. It is what the Word of God doesn't teach! If you think I am being arrogant, it is either because you are a fool, or because you are woefully ignorant of the inspired Holy Bible.

Lie #2 - Lordship Salvation Falls Within The Realm Of Orthodox Theology

I heard Dr. Kevin Bauder from Maranatha Baptist Bible College insanely teaches that Lordship Salvation falls within the realm of orthodox theology, and we should accept false teachers like John MacArthur, Ray Comfort and Paul Washer as saved brethren. Dr. Steve Pettit (former long time incompetent president of Bob Jones University) ruined the religious college. Steve Pettit is a hellbound Calvinist who is personal buddies with heretic John MacArthur. Birds of a feather flock together!

Dear reader, Lordship Salvation is a counterfeit gospel that cannot produce the required new birth to enter into God's Kingdom (John 3:1-7). Also, the heretical idea that you must forsake a lifestyle of sinning to be saved is FALSE! Jesus came into the world to die on a cross to pay our debt of sin. God does not demand that you first be willing to reform (change your behavior) to receive His free gift of eternal life, which would be works instead of grace.

Lordship Salvation DOESN'T fall into the realm of biblical theology, not even close! Remember, the Bible identifies Satan as “the god of this world,” whom the Scripture warns us that he “blinds the minds” of unsaved people to hinder them from seeing the Gospel, “lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them” (2nd Corinthians 4:4b).

Lie #3 - Pick Which Bible Fits You Best

I was shocked when I heard an incompetent Baptist pastor actually tell his congregation to choose which Bible versions fits them best. No Sir, you are a lying fool! God's Word stands alone, you don't get to pick which tampered with, watered down, corrupted, perversion, best suits your carnal flesh. The inspired King James Bible is God's preserved, inspired, infallible, inerrant, holy Word for English-speaking people today. There can only be ONE true Bible translation in any particular language.

Look at what the Devil's Bible butchering henchmen did to corrupt Matthew 8:2.

Look at what Satan's little minions did to corrupt 1st Timothy 3:16.

Look what the Devil's clowns did to butcher Psalms 12:7.

I could literally show you hundreds more corruptions, omissions and blasphemy in the corrupt modern Bible revisions (and they're all corrupt). If you don't use only the KING JAMES BIBLE, then friend, you don't have an inspired Holy Bible!!! Please don't believe any demonic liar who tries to convince you that it is harmless to use the modern Devil's Bible versions. I have only read, memorized and studied from the King James Bible since I became born again at age 13 in 1980, and I will NEVER use any other so-called “Bible.” Remember, the King James Bible is NOT a mere “version,” it is the inspired Holy Bible.

By “inspired” I mean that they are God's Words. The Lord alone authored the Bible. Men were the mere penmen. I plead with you to RUN away from the modern corrupt Bible revisions. It is tragic that the Pensacola Christian College cult refuse to contend for the faith. I do not know even one of their graduates or affiliated churches that expose the Devil's corrupt bibles. The PCC camp couldn't care less.

They consider exposing false bibles as being “radical” at PCC. God is as radical as you can get! In the Old Testament, God killed a man for steading the Ark of the Covenant as it wobbled. The lesson is clear: Don't mess with God's Word! If you think I am guilty of splitting hairs, then you won't like God at all, because Jesus denied entrance into Heaven to a group of people who spent their lives serving Him (Matthew 7:21-23). The dear savior didn't let them slide, merely because they were sincerely misled about God's simple plan of salvation. If you trust in turning from your sins to be saved, Christ will deny knowing you too someday!

America is going to Hell because of INDIFFERENCE in our Bible colleges and churches today. No one seems to have zeal any more for the things of God. Faithful preachers like me (an evangelist to the internet since 2002) are labeled as troublemakers. My worst enemies over the past 22 years have not been witches, sodomites, abortionists and atheists; but rather, hellbound neo-evangelicals who profess faith in Christ, but add works to their faith. That is what Lordship Salvation does, it mixes works with grace (i.e., it combines SERVICE with SALVATION, confusing people).

My favorite preacher's quote is from 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)

In this needful blog, I have exposed THREE popular deceptions that are unfortunately being promoted in churches everywhere today.

The “Turn From Your Sins” To Get To Heaven Heresy

John 3:16-17, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.”

I heard a wonderful sermon today from which I gleaned this edifying quote:

“When it comes to salvation, if you're saved by grace, there's nothing to stop or start.” —Pastor Ralph Yankee Arnold, “Legalistic Judaism is Today's Calvinism”

This MP3 excerpt was taken from Pastor Ralph Yankee Arnold's helpful sermon titled: “Legalistic Judaism is Today's Calvinism.” Here is the sermon if you'd like to watch it...

Legalistic Judaism is Today's Calvinism

I love this guy! It is becoming extremely rare to find a free grace preacher in these perilous times. Tragically, I'd guess that about 85% of Baptist churches today have succumbed to the Devil's falsehood that more than faith is required to get to Heaven. In addition, they falsely teach that you must be willing to “turn from your sins” to be saved, which the inspired Holy Bible doesn't teach. What saith the Scripture? 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.”

The shameful pastor of Campus Church at Pensacola Christian College (Jeff Redlin) is a liar! His clown sidekick Timothy Zacharias is a liar! God says so, not me. Bob Jones University today and their longtime president Steve Pettit are liars! They have ADDED man's words to God's Words, perverting the grace of God. Jesus paid for everybody's sins, He doesn't demand that you forsake your sinning to receive His payment for your sins.

Salvation vs Service - Truth and Love

God is so very good dear friend. Christ died on that cross to pay for your sins. He was buried but then came back from the dead. All that God requires for you to get to Heaven is that you BELIEVE Jesus Christ did it all for you. I love this quote from Pastor Yankee Arnold...

“Christ paid for my sins. If He paid for my sins, why would I have to go to Hell to pay for my sins? All He wanted me to do was believe that He did it all for me. That is the greatest news in all the world! And no man, no preacher, has the authority to change the Gospel message. Just because you don't see how it works, or understand how it works, you don't have to know—it ain't none of our business; but God says there is a Heaven and a Hell, and if you want to go to Heaven this is what you do, and your opinion don't count.” —Pastor Ralph Yankee Arnold, “Legalistic Judaism is Today's Calvinism”

That's truthful preaching! We need more free grace preachers today.

Jeremiah 10:21, “For the pastors are become brutish, and have not sought the LORD: therefore they shall not prosper, and all their flocks shall be scattered.”

The Repent Of Your Sins Heresy Exposed

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.”

Someone sent me this excellent 3:50 hour video documentary today, which exposes the Devil's lie that you cannot go to Heaven unless you turn away from your sinful behavior (which is works and not God's grace).

REPENT OF YOUR SINS 2, The Hypocrites
(Documentary, false prophet exposure)

I encourage you to watch the documentary dear reader. Pastor Ralph Yankee Arnold said it best, I humbly think:

“There is power in this Gospel message. Most people just don't know how to present it... The clarity of the Gospel is what makes it easy for them to believe.” —Pastor Yankee Arnold, a quote from the excellent MP3 sermon titled, “WHY GRACE CAN SAVE THE WORST MAN!”

Pastor M.R. DeHaan (1891-1965) said it very well:

"There is a vast difference between coming to Jesus for salvation and coming after Jesus for service. Coming to Christ makes one a believer, while coming after Christ makes one a disciple. All believers are not disciples. To become a believer one accepts the invitation of the Gospel, to be a disciple one obeys the challenge to a life of dedicated service and separation. Salvation comes through the sacrifice of Christ; discipleship comes only by sacrifice of self and surrender to His call for devoted service. Salvation is free, but discipleship involves paying the price of a separated walk. Salvation can't be lost because it depends upon God's faithfulness, but discipleship can be lost because it depends upon our faithfulness." —Pastor M.R. DeHaan, “Hebrews”; Zondervan Publishing House; 1959 (p. 117)

Faith is the only righteous thing that I can do. I have received countless emails from web visitors who thank me, letting me know that they had previously been confused about how to be saved, but then God led them to my website ministry and they were saved when they saw a clear presentation of the Gospel.

The Blood of Jesus Saves, Not Making Christ Your Lord

Professor Gail Riplinger points out on pages 467-468 and 472 of her awesome book titled, “Hazardous Materials”...

John MacArthur's Roots: Bad Bibles

Well-known radio teacher and author, John MacArthur, wrongly believes that it is just Christ's death that saves sinners, not His blood sacrifice for the mercy seat. Could Jesus just have had a heart attack shoveling snow when He was old? What about the Old Testament examples of the blood sacrifice? They extend from Abel, to Noah, and all throughout the entire Old Testament. The Bible says, “Without shedding of blood is no remission” (Heb. 9:22). Heb. 9:12 tell us that “By his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us” (See also Rev. 11:19). Does MacArthur get his Scripture-twisters from sources such as Vine and new versions that often substitute the word “death” for the word “blood”? Why does Vine change, “through faith in his blood?” (vol. 4, p. 137). Vine says,

“The ‘blood’ of Christ stands for his death...”
“The blood does not simply denote the physical material, it stands for the death of Christ” (vol. 4, pp. 137,251).

Vine writes heresy about “the blood” in his essay entitled, “The Table of The Lord and The Lord's Supper.” He feels that the ‘blood’ is simply used to “illustrate” his death, just as the term the “table” of The Lord illustrates the communion. The blood was not merely a ‘picture.’ It was God's blood offered for our sins.

Vine and MacArthur share another subtle theological error. Tinges of MacArthur's Lordship Salvation mar Vine's interpretations (based on Vine's rendition of Rom. 10:9). Vine says,

“When he expounds the conditions upon which salvation is to be possessed, he stresses the necessity of acknowledging the Lordship of Christ: If thou shalt confess with thy mouth Jesus as Lord” (bold mine, vol. 4, p. 117; vol. 1, p. 403).

Vine changes the KJV's text from the reading, “confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus...” to “confess with thy mouth Jesus as Lord” (Vine and his R.V. contradict themselves by omitting “Lord” many times and also by demoting our “Lord” to a mere ‘Master’ (e.g., vol. 4, p. 130). ...

Vine's Other Corrupt Sources

When you read Vine's you are not reading ‘Greek’; you are really reading Westcott, Hort and Thayer. You are not reading ‘Hebrew’; you are reading Gesenius' and his Old Testament Lexicon. Vine's additional sources are listed here in bold type (vol. 1, p. 34). (All of these men's heresies have merited a chapter in this book or a discussion in the author's other books New Age Bible Versions, The Language of the King James Bible, or In Awe of Thy Word.)

Vine's An Expository Dictionary of Old Testament Words recommends the following materials which were available during Vine's life (Old Tappan, N.J.; Fleming Revell Company, 1978, see the bibliography of David Huttar, pp. 169, 172, 173, 176). 

• Rudolf Kittel's corrupt pre-Nazi German-propelled Old Testament Biblia Hebraica, with its notes critical of the pure Hebrew text.
• Gesenius' Hebrew Grammar
• C.A. Briggs and S.R. Driver's, The International Critical Commentary
• Francis Brown (Driver and Briggs), A Hebrew and English Lexicon of the Old Testament.

I highly recommend Dr. Gail Riplinger's books uplifting and defending the King James Bible, and which expose the corrupt New Age modern Bible versions. Our churches have been infected with the disease of so-called “higher learning.” Please see, HAZARDOUS MATERIALS—INTRO | CHAP 3 | CHAP 7 (by Dr. Gail Riplinger; online audiobook). What you need to fully understand is that Luciferian-worshipping occultists in the 19th century deliberately conspired to corrupt the Word of God, with the intent of infiltrating and corrupting the local new Testament Church into the 20th century and beyond. It has now become a frightening reality. But please don't take my word for it, read the statements of the pioneers of the New Age Movement for yourself.

NEW AGE BIBLE VERSIONS (1:23 hour MP3 interview with Dr. Gail Riplinger; you've got to hear this!).

Moses and Aaron in Exodus 12:13b, “When I see the blood, I will pass over you.” Moses and Aaron were instructed by God to tell all the people that if the blood of a male, innocent, lamb, having no blemish, were applied to the doorposts of the home, then the 10th plague upon Egypt (which is the death of all the first born) would be spared them.

That literal blood represented the liquid blood of the Lord Jesus Christ, applied to the heavenly mercy seat. Hebrews 9:12 says, “Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.” Heretics like Vine and MacArthur claim that the word ‘blood’ doesn't mean what it says; but instead, they say it merely means ‘death.’ But notice that God didn't say He'd pass over the home if He saw a dead lamb. No, God was looking for THE BLOOD APPLIED!!!

In the same way, the Old Testament high priest annually took the blood of a slain perfect lamb (representing the sinless Lamb of God, Jesus) into the holy of holies. The high priest sprinkled that liquid blood upon the mercy seat, between the two cherubims, in the presence of God almighty Who was looking down upon it. Again, the death of a lamb in the inner courtyard of the Tabernacle meant nothing unless that lamb's literal blood was sprinkled upon the mercy seat inside the holy of holies (or holy place). For an excellent detailed exegesis on the subject of the work of the high priest and the Tabernacle, please see Dr. M.R. DeHaan's book, “The Tabernacle” (one of my favorite books).
