The Confusing Theology Of Charlie Kirk

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.”

I am convinced that the Catholics after Charlie's tragic assassination are LYING that he was about to convert to their Satanic false religion. New York Cardinal Archdiocese Timothy Dolan hailed Charlie Kirk as a “modern day Saint Paul,” as he praised the conservative activist as a “hero” and “evangelist.” I humbly believe that the Catholics are LYING that Kirk was ready to convert, based upon his own words. In the following video, Charlie Kirk himself points out THREE REASONS why he would NEVER become a Roman Catholic.

NO! Charlie Kirk Was Not Thinking of Converting to Roman Catholicism!

Although his wife grew up in a Catholic home and was baptized into their damnable cult, I seriously doubt if she was still attending the Catholic church at the time of her husband's death. That would make no sense at all, and mean that Charlie was going along with his wife's foolishness, which doesn't seem like Charlie at all. He ran his own home as the leader. Clearly, Charlie understood that the Catholic church is WRONG about Mary's Immaculate Conception (that she was sinless), her Assumption into Heaven instead of dying, and the sin of worshipping (venerating) Mary. There's just NO WAY that Charlie said he was "This close to converting" to Catholicism, unless it was a sick joke.

For the record, lest somebody unfairly get angry at me, I have never said that Charlie didn't go to Heaven. Nor do I hate the man, God forbid. I love Charlie Kirk. I am simply focusing on his ecumenical statements and shoddy plan of salvation that confuse everyone. The fact that Roman Catholics are trying to claim Charlie as one of their own proves the dangers of ecumenism. Ecumenism is laying aside doctrinal differences to promote better unity. But dear reader, it is better to be divided by truth than to be united over error.

Shame on Charlie Kirk for coddling false religions! He should have directly TOLD THE TRUTH that sacramental salvation is a path to Hell, fire and damnation! He should have TOLD THE TRUTH that Mormonism's works-based Lordship Salvation cannot get anyone to Heaven. Instead he boasted that half of his Turning Point staff are Mormons, and his wife was raised and baptized a Catholic, and he thinks we don't "VENERATE MARY" enough. SHAME on Charlie!!! ...

Charlie Kirk's Heartbreaking Last Take on Mary:
“We don't venerate her enough!”

Kindly said, Charlie Kirk talked out of both sides of his mouth. In one interview he says that Catholics are wrong to venerate Mary, but then in another speech he foolishly says that Protestants have "over-corrected" and "don't venerate Mary enough." Bullcrap! That kind of wicked cult-serenading talk just confuses lost sinners and does more damage than good. It couldn't be more obvious that Charlie was coddling the cults! If you think that is wise in an attempt to win the lost to Christ, you are a darn fool friend! You don't make a thief honest by telling him that law abiding citizens have over-corrected and we don't steal enough. Charlie Kirk was an ecumenical poster boy for Lordship Salvation. I am concerned about where he went in the afterlife, but I won't say he went to Hell at this point.

Someone upset today sent me an email and insisted that Charlie is in Heaven, because he never denied Jesus as his Savior. Well, every hellbound cult member believes that same thing. Mormons and Catholics all think Jesus is their Savior. They all believe that Jesus died on a cross for their sins, was buried and resurrected the third day. The problem is that they also believe MORE is required to get to Heaven, which apparently Kirk also believed from his statements.

“If your Christianity is nothing more than an insurance plan for the afterlife—that is not a conversion—that is not legitimate Christianity. If you're like, 'Hey, I went on Easter, I raised my hand—just in case the Christian thing is right—I'm going to Heaven because I did the thing; I signed the paper. That is an insult to God. ...it's you acting as if God is there like BlueCross and BlueShield in case you have a broken leg.” —Charlie Kirk, YouTube video titled: "Charlie Kirk STUNS hosts on Jesus Christ and the True Gospel (Must watch)"

That is not how a redeemed child of God talks folks! Charlie is clearly implying that Easy-Believism is false. He errantly teaches that if the only reason you came to Jesus Christ was to escape the everlasting fires of Hell, you're not legitimately saved. Someone may argue that Charlie Kirk was not s preacher or theologian. Folks, it doesn't matter! Jesus in no uncertain terms warned in John 3:1-7 that unless a man is “born again,” he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God. Charlie did thankfully claim to be born-again, which is why I am careful not to say he went to Hell. But the plain truth is that due to his series of contradictory comments, I simply cannot determine if he was saved or not. Remember, even hellbound Mormons, Roman Catholics and Jehovah's Witnesses all falsely claim to be “born again.”

In lieu of Kirk's blasphemous statements, it shouldn't come as a surprise that the Catholic world are wickedly claiming him as one of their own. At what point did Charlie ever say that his wife is NO LONGER a Catholic? Charlie didn't, and that's my whole point. Ecumenism is a cancer in our society today. Catholics love and support Charlie Kirk because he wickedly “showed deep respect toward Catholic faith.” Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001) was absolutely right, who said: One person with Mono (Mononucleosis) plus one healthy person equals two people with mono.” Kindly said, Charlie Kirk has spiritual Mononucleosis!

The inspired Word of God is very clear in this matter...

2nd Corinthians 6:14-18, “Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.”

By God's grace, as long as I have sanity, it will be a cold day in Hell before I ever praise hellbound Mormons, Roman Catholics, Seventh-Day Adventists, Churches of Christ, Lutherans, Jehovah's Witnesses or any other FALSE RELIGION! The idea that babying lost sinners in their damnable false religion is a flawed unbiblical concept. The Apostle Paul said that he refused to tolerate false teachers for even one hour. ...

Galatians 2:5, “And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage: To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.”

I love that Paul told them exactly WHY he refused to tolerate false prophets, no not even for an hour. It was so that THE TRUTH of a free grace Gospel would triumph victoriously among them, unpolluted. In other words, we don't need or want to hear the other side's opinion. No, I don't want to have an “open mind,” I am as narrow-minded as the inspired King James Bible!

Every redeemed child of God has a duty to speak THE TRUTH about the cults, not serenade them in hope that one day they might repent of their DEAD WORKS to believe the Gospel. It never happens that way! Coddling members of false religions doesn't work!

And to close, I am a Charlie Kirk fan myself. I watched and loved his college debates. Charlie was one of the best human beings who ever lived. I will miss him tremendously! That being said, I must speak up as a born-again child of God to TELL THE TRUTH. Mormonism and Roman Catholicism are of the Devil, both highways to the eternal Lake of Fire, which is what Charlie should have told them.

Whenever professed evangelical Christians sinfully hobnob, pander, coddle and partially go along with the accursed false religions, it ultimately always lead to apostasy, confusion and the Gospel being muddied to obscurity. Beware of Billy and Franklin Graham, Ravi Zacharias, Rick Warren, Joel Osteen, Robert Schuller, Chuck Colsten, Pat Robertson's The700 Club, CBN—to name just a few ecumenical heretics! Sadly, Charlie Kirk belongs on that list too.

Dear reader, kindly said, by giving satisfaction to members of a religious cult, you will NEVER win those lost sinners to Jesus Christ using such a lame strategy. They need to be told THE TRUTH. They have been entrapped by Satan in a damnable religious cult.

The Apostle Paul recounts his salvation experience, at which time God told Paul the purpose for his life would be to preach THE TRUTH of the Gospel to win the lost to Jesus Christ. ...

Acts 26:15-18, “And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest. But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee; Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee, To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.”

Paul was to preach the free grace Gospel to turn lost sinners from Satan unto God, so that their sins would be forgiven through faith in Jesus Christ. Paul didn't pander to the Judaizers who preached a counterfeit gospel, he rebuked them sharply (Titus 1:9-14).

Some of the churches which Evangelist Paul had started on his numerous missionary journeys had fallen prey to religious false prophets. Such was the case with the churches of Galatia (Galatians 3:1-3). Paul told them THE TRUTH (Galatians 1:6-9). He didn't pander to the cults, not for one hour (Galatians 2:5). Consequently, the deceived members of those corrupted churches became angry with Paul, counting him as their enemy. Galatians 4:16, “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.” Please don't miss that last sentence. Paul said, “They zealously affect you, but not well.” Charlie Kirk pandered to the cults and they favorably responded to him, which he liked, but that was not good.

There is a fine line between faith and foolishness. As with many truths in the inspired Word of God, there are numerous seeming contradictions and paradoxes. For example: In 2nd Timothy 2:26 that Bible teaches not to fight, war and debate with those who disagree with Gods Word. We are exhorted to be gentle, kind and meek toward unbelievers. Yet, in Titus 1:9-14 Paul exhorted young Titus when dealing with false teachers to “rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith.” The latter cannot be done without fighting and starting a war. So we must have wisdom and rightly divide the Word of God. Clearly we ought to do our best to gently and patiently teach lost sinners the free grace Gospel and Christ's teachings. And yet, there comes a time when we must SPEAK THE TRUTH without apology or compromise.

I do not believe when 2nd Timothy 2:26 teaches to be gentle and patient that it means to pander to, coddle or go along partially with damnable false religions. Paul said in Titus 3:10-11 that after warning a heretic TWICE, if that man still refused to repent to adopt the truth of a free grace Gospel, Paul didn't waste any more time on him. Paul knew at that point that the man was corrupted of himself, foolishly unwilling to obey the truth of God's Word.

I certainly do not believe it is required to stop talking with someone after two conversations; I humbly think this is just what Paul chose to do, and I think it is good wisdom to follow. There is a dying world all around us without Jesus Christ. We only have a limited amount of time on earth. I'd rather preach a sermon to a thousand people; than to preach a thousand sermons to one man who reuses to heed the truth. Paul said the man who still rejects the truth after two admonitions is subverted (corrupted) of himself.

A lot of people are saying that there is a great revival happening right now because of Charlie Kirk's untimely death. It's leading a lot of people to attend church, especially young people. That being said, because of Charlie's sinful ecumenical compromise and shameful pandering to Mormons and Roman Catholics, it is sadly not a revival of biblical Christianity. The lines between religion and a free grace Gospel have been blurred and obscured so badly that the false religions will benefit more than anyone from Kirk's tragic death. Beware of the dangers of ecumenism! We should have no desire as born-again saints to hobnob with false religions, nor with the damnable Lordship Salvation crowd at Bob Jones University and Pensacola Christian College (PCC), et cetera. I found FOUR different plans of salvation at PCC. SHAME! These ungodly institutions are spiritually rotten to the core! RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS!!!

Satan's greatest weapon is to con people to live the Christian life without ever being born again. John 8:45, “And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.” God intended that THE TRUTH offend those who are living contrary to THE TRUTH. The true Gospel always points you to CHRIST; a false gospel always points to YOU. Salvation is not a reward for the righteous, it is a gift for the guilty. Salvation is not doing your best, it is having Christ's best put to your account through receiving Him by faith. We must stay true to the simplicity of the Gospel! Repentance regarding salvation is a change of mind from unbelief to belief. We must earnestly contend for the faith (Jude 1:3). THANK YOU for reading my ministry blog.

Shameful Neo-Evangelical Pastor Defends Wife's Immodest Pants

Jeremiah 5:30-31, “A wonderful and horrible thing is committed in the land; The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means; and my people love to have it so: and what will ye do in the end thereof?”

The word “wonderful” in Jeremiah 5:30 means shocking, or astonishment. The prophet is saying that something shocking was happening in Israel. The pastors of their generation were full of crap, preaching lies to deceive the people. The Bible says in the end when they are judged by God, their pastors won't be there to bail them out of hot water! Jeremiah 5:31b, “what will ye do in the end thereof?”

I had reluctantly attended the neo-evangelical Family Baptist Church in Pensacola for 45 months between 2021 to 2025. I only attended there because the place was closer to where I live, and I couldn't find anything better. Moving forward I will never make that foolish decision again. I'd rather stay home on Sundays than attend a corrupt neo-evangelical cult like Family Baptist Church, or Campus Church at Pensacola Christian College, that is wrong on God's simple plan of salvation and defends worldliness in the church. In hindsight I feel like Job, who wisely exclaimed in Job 42:6, “Wherefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.”

In hindsight, I now sadly realize that during the entire 45 months that I quietly attended their damned so-called “church,” they were holding a sinful grudge against me because I am a fundamentalist Bible-believing Christian from Hyles-Anderson College (1985-1993). I had no idea that the pastor, Brad Moffett, and his verbally abusive father, Bobby Moffett, despise Dr. Jack Hyles and have very low opinions of him. SHAME on Brad and his abusive father!!!

On April 30th, 2025, I and my wife Alice met with Pastor Brad in his office. He had invited us for marriage counseling prior to our remarriage (we were previously married for 19 years, and then divorced for 19 years, and we got remarried in the Lord). Praise God! Little did I know that instead of talking to us about marriage, Pastor Brad would do a Bait & Switch on us, deciding to censure my website ministry instead, which was as low class as a pastor can get. I am fully convinced that his meddling wife (in my humble opinion) had something to do with that. Like Jezebel stirred up Ahab (1st Kings 21:25), she henpecks her husband, which I have seen her do in church, giving him orders. 1st Kings 21:25, “But there was none like unto Ahab, which did sell himself to work wickedness in the sight of the LORD, whom Jezebel his wife stirred up.”

During the meeting, Pastor Brad said some hurtful things about our hero of the faith, Pastor Jack Hyles, slandering his good name by falsely accusing Brother Hyles of ruining hundreds of families with perverse teachings on sex and marriage that were unbiblical. Me and Alice were horrified and deeply hurt. I had looked forward to introducing my wife to my pastor. Instead, the very first time that Alice met my pastor, he slandered her hero. Alice was born again in 1975 in Chicago while riding one of the ministry buses of the First Baptist Church of Hammond, Indiana. It didn't go over well with her to hear Pastor Jack Hyles being wickedly slandered by a foolish young pastor (we were married in 1987, just 19 days before Pastor Brad was physically born). Pastor Brad has no respect!

During the unpleasant meeting Pastor Brad Moffett criticized my fundamentalist Bible-preaching that homosexuality should be a punishable crime, my preaching against PCC, my preaching against infidel Ken Ham, my calling Bob Jones University's Calvinist Lordship Salvation preaching professors “God damned reprobates” (Galatians 1:6-9), and my preaching against women wearing pants. He saved the issue of women wearing pants for last, which turned out to be his biggest problem with my website ministry and me.

Pastor Brad sinfully challenged my fundamentalist Bible preaching, demanding a Bible verse that says a woman cannot wear pants. I kindly told him that 1st Timothy 2:9-10 is more than enough Scriptural support for women not to wear pants, “In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.” God shouldn't have to add detailed explanations to His Word, spelling out every thou shalt not for wicked people who don't want to live right.

I was listening this morning to an excellent sermon by Pastor Jack Hyles titled, “Bad Renters; Or necessary Evictions,” about not allowing sinful thoughts to lodge in our mind. I took this excellent excerpt from the sermon why women shouldn't wear slacks. In the sermon he properly preaches against women who sinfully wear slacks in public, helping to corrupt men's minds with lust.

When I and my wife met with Pastor Brad in April, he sickeningly tried to defend his wife's pants, by saying that the burden is upon men not to lust, not his wife to dress right. He said if men lust they are the ones doing the sinning, not his wife. Unbelievable! Folks, this is a pastor of a local Baptist church in Pensacola! We are disgusted by all of this. The pastors of the church take God's name in vain by preaching the unbiblical heresy that you cannot get to Heaven unless you first, “Repent of your sins.” No such nonsense is taught in the inspired King James Bible. Ungodly men added those words to the Word of God (Proverbs 30:5-6).

Pastor Brad further foolishly stated that he didn't lust upon women who wear sensual clothing in public because he walks in the Spirit. But dear reader, even if a man is walking in the Holy Spirit at any given time (so as to not fulfill the lust of the flesh), that simply DOESN'T excuse nor justify his wife (or any woman) wearing pants in public. It is sinful for women to reveal their thigh and buttocks in public, which pants immodestly do.

Then there's the whole issue of women being forbidden BY GOD to wear men's clothing (Deuteronomy 22:5). Pastor Brad wanted to argue about that passage of Scripture too, dismissing it as outdated Old Testament law that he says is not applicable today. I humbly contend that the Lord's commandment for women not to wear men's clothing is a moral law applicable is every generation. Deuteronomy 22:5, “The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God.” That is a permanent moral law, not merely a temporary ceremonial law for Jews only.

Pastor Brad particularly took issue with my article titled, “Why A Christian Lady Ought Not Wear Pants,” falsely accusing me of adding to the Scriptures something it doesn't say. In the preceding article I quote Pastor Jack Hyles. His enemies wrongly accused him of having a dirty mind, since he preaches against women wearing pants. Dr. Hyles replied, “You say, 'Brother Hyles, you must have a dirty mind.' No, I have a man's mind!” That statement from Pastor Hyles offended Brad Moffett. He also horribly accused Dr. Hyles of having a “dirty mind.” You don't have to have a dirty mind as a man to be tempted to lust.

I am so disappointed with Pastor Brad, and his horrible arrogant father (whose is also a bad pastor and his wife also sinfully wears pants). These people are shameful neo-evangelicals, which is their whole problem. They despise me, the good guy in this matter (2nd Timothy 3:3), because I am a fundamentalist preacher. By “fundamentalist” I simply mean that I follow the inspired King James Bible, I preach a free grace Gospel without works, I don't follow this ungodly world, and I am telling THE TRUTH. I am just a struggling sinner like everybody else, but I say with Joshua who said in Joshua 24:15, “And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.”

It is ungodly neo-evangelicals today who use the Devil's umpteen different Bible versions, corrupting the inspired Word of God. It is ungodly neo-evangelicals today who preach the Satanic lie that you have to “repent of your sins” to get saved; a teaching nowhere taught in the inspired Word of God. It is ungodly neo-evangelicals today who defend women wearing pants in public, blaspheming the inspired Word of God in their immodest shame.

I didn't have to say a single word, my website ministry shouted volumes at the guilty pastor's wife (the shoe fit and she wore it), who gets irked every time she sees me because I am effectively a sin-detector in her sight. And again, I couldn't care less if the pastor's wife wears pants, it's none of my business. But THEY MADE AN ISSUE of my Bible preaching, I didn't make an issue at their church. As Rambo would say, “They drew first blood, not me.”

What saddens me is that some people in the church will no doubt misunderstand and think I am being ridiculous to make an issue of the pastor's wife wearing pants, but that is absolutely NOT what happened. Pastor Brad made an issue of it!!! I was minding my own business and had never spoken or wrote a single word about any woman in their church wearing pants. But because his wife feels convicted and guilty for wearing her immodest pants in public, SHE has a problem with my fundamentalist Bible preaching. So, to be clear for anyone reading this blog from Family Baptist Church in Pensacola, it was your pastor and his wife who made an issue of this, not me.

The crux of the matter, when we lay the axe to the root of the tree, is that these ungodly people are neo-evangelicals at Family Baptist Church in Pensacola; but I am a Christ-honoring fundamentalist preacher, and born again free grace believer, and they despise me for it. There's not a topic that I preach about that riles up and upsets people more than that women shouldn't wear pants, slacks or miniskirts in public. And by the way, contrary to what Pastor Steven Anderson strangely teaches, kindly said, I am against woman breast-feeding in public where their nipples are showing for men to see. We need to have a revival of propriety and morality in this country. Get mad at me if you want, I am right.

Listen, it is a sin for women to wear pants in public. There wouldn't have been any debate a century ago in America, but in this wicked untoward generation society's morals have sunken to new lows. Look at how crazy things are getting! It was Russian dictator Vladimir Lenin who said: The best revolutionary is a youth devoid of morals. This explains why America's youth nationwide are being encouraged to riot, pillage and steal other people's stuff. Such horrible crimes in California are only legal punishable as a misdemeanor. Until the punishment fits the crime, our nation's youth won't behave. Ecclesiastes 8:11, “Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.” I sincerely believe that this epidemic of nationwide chaos and crime today is all intentionally being encouraged and nourished by the Luciferian elite behind the New World Order. If that sounds “crazy” to you, flip over any one dollar bill and look at all the Masonic occult symbols, shewing you who controls the United States from behind the scenes. Remember, the Holy Bible identifies Satan is the god of this world (2nd Corinthians 4:4).

Getting back to women wearing pants, it's not that hard to figure out. When a woman wears pants, she is revealing her lack of a feminine heart. Her soul is worldly. The Devil's crowd all wears pants. The “Jesus Freaks” youth wear pants. Only neo-evangelical women wear pants, and they're helping to ruin this country! There is a whole mindset that goes along with women wearing pants, and it is a sinful mindset of feminism (female empowerment), and not the meek and quiet Spirit of Christ. You can argue and disagree with me if you want, but you'd be wrong!

Christian ladies and girls should always wear modest attire when in public. You are a child of the King of kings and Lord of lords. So, shew it ladies! Conceal, don't reveal. There simply is no way for a Christian woman wearing pants in public to walk in holiness. No way!!!

God knows that I love everybody, I truly do. I didn't start this fight with Family Baptist Church, they did! The issue is far bigger than a nobody like me. The Bible says that we wrestle (fight) not against flesh and blood (people); but rather, we fight against the dark spiritual forces of Satan, against wickedness in high places, against the rulers of the darkness of this world (Ephesians 6:10-12).

During our unpleasant meeting in his church office in April, Pastor Brad felt compelled to tell me and my wife that he is NOT A FUNDAMENTALIST. Although he didn't have to tell me, I already clearly knew that he was not a fundamentalist Christian, the very fact that he felt compelled to say something so rebellious is loathsome and shameful. God is a fundamentalist folks! A Christian fundamentalist separates himself from those who are not separated. That includes moral, marital, civil, family and ecclesiastical separation from the wicked. I won't closely associate with worldly people. I don't want to wallow with pigs in the filth. I am the biggest sinner I know, so I do not condemn other sinners. God commands me as his redeemed child to walk in holiness, as God is holy (1st Peter 1:15-16).

I am sick and tired of the ungodly sneers, grudges, jokes, dirty looks, smugness of the ungodly neo-evangelical crowd. I'm talking about the wretched Bob Jones University crowd. I'm talking about the wretched Pensacola Christian College cult. I'm talking about the wretched hypocrites at Family Baptist Church who think they are better than broken sinners like me and my wife, and Tom and Sharon, and Lucretia, and Bobby across the street from the church, and others they have horribly mistreated. They should really rename their Family Baptist Church to the Moffett Baptist Church, because they run the place like they own it personally, which is wrong.

In hindsight, I am glad that they kicked us out of their damned cult on June 22, 2025. They got upset with us because of my Bible preaching on social media. The pastor and his wife were so irked at the church's Memorial Day picnic in 2025 when we arrived. They didn't bother to greet us. They didn't think we would come, but we did, in the sincerest of good will toward them. My wife was wearing a full length dress at the picnic, while the pastor's wife stood there wearing her whorish pants. She felt so convicted that she walked over 50 feet to mess with us while we were eating at a picnic table. The pastor's wife fully knows that I am a fundamentalist preacher, and that my wife wears dresses in public.

The Lord knows that I am not writing this blog to be unkind or vindictive; but rather, to draw important attention to the matter of modesty in society today. Right doctrine matters! Modesty matters! I listened to a knucklehead young pastor (Brad Moffett) wickedly slander Pastor Jack Hyles because of his stand against women wearing pants. I kindly rebuked the pastor. He should be ashamed of himself for criticizing one of the greatest soulwinning preachers who ever lived, Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001).

Tragically, neo-evangelicals are destroying churches all across America today. They're “repent of your sins” to be saved counterfeit plan of salvation is deadly. Their use and support of the modern Bible revisions is deadly. Pastor Brad Moffett told me that he supports the Modern English Version (MEV) which is horribly corrupted by Satan. Please, RUN from neo-evangelical Bible colleges and churches as fast as you can, because your spiritual life depends upon it. It really does friend. Thank you for reading my ministry blog.

Praying, Asking And Calling Are Not Required To Be Born Again

Acts 10:43-44, “To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins. While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word.”

The Apostle Peter preached the Gospel to Cornelius and his companions in Acts chapter 10. Peter didn't stop at any point in his sermon to give an invitation for the audience to ask to be saved. Peter didn't give an invitation for anyone to walk down an aisle to learn how to be saved. The apostle didn't tell them to pray a sinner's prayer. No, Peter simply told them about Jesus, the Christ, who was crucified on a cross for their sins, buried and then miraculously resurrected three days later. Peter said that all the Bible prophets gave witness in their preaching “that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins” (Acts 10:43b). Faith in Christ produces instant forgiveness of sins and eternal life.

In Acts 10:44 we read, “While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word,” signifying that they believed in their hearts to be saved. John 6:47, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.” When someone hears the Gospel correctly presented and BELIEVES IT, they are instantly and forever saved. Nothing more is required. Titus 3:5a, “Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us...”

Salvation does not include a probationary period to watch that individual's life to see if their behavior has changed. The hellbound false prophets in Matthew 7:21-23 boasted of their “many wonderful works” done in Jesus name, and by all outward indications it appeared that they were saved. Yet, to their utter horror Jesus denied knowing them as His sheep, and they went to burn in the Lake of Fire forever. Satan's greatest weapon is to con people into living the Christian life without ever being born again. Ninety-nine percent of religious people are going straight to Hell when they breathe their last breath on earth.

This beautiful passage from Acts chapter 10 will give you the sweet assurance of salvation. I was always troubled that I didn't pray right after I got saved at age 13. For several years I feared that I might not be saved, thinking perhaps I missed something when I prayed the sinner's prayer to be saved. Since I couldn't remember what I had prayed, I couldn't settle the matter of salvation. I used to cry many tears because my heart was full of worry and anxiety. I knew that saying a prayer didn't save someone, faith did, but I had been taught by every Baptist pastor and religious tract that you must pray to be saved. Boy was I lied to!

I wrote an article nine years ago based on 10:43 and 44 titled, “Peter Preaches The Simple Gospel.” I humbly think the main reason why people struggle with assurance of salvation is because instead of searching the Scripture as Jesus commanded in John 5:39, “for in them ye think ye have eternal life,” they search the teachings of men, following misguided preachers.

As we beautifully see in the biblical account of Cornelius, the Apostle Peter didn't tell his listeners to do anything to be saved, he simply preached the Gospel unto them and they BELIEVED what they heard and were born again.

This is what is meant in Hebrews 4:2, “For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.”

This is what is meant in Galatians 3:1, “This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?”

The inspired Word of God is so clear and plain to see in this important matter of salvation. The Gospel is not Good News to be lived; but rather, Good News to be believed. John 11:25, “Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live.” Again and again in the Scripture we are taught to simply believe on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ to be saved. John 1:12, “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.”

There are numerous unlearned preachers in the New Independent Fundamental Baptist (New IFB) movement today, who errantly teach that you cannot be saved without praying. Such nonsense is totally unbiblical. I and my ministry friend Onorato Diamante have been relentlessly attacked on social media by some nuts in the New IFB, because we uphold the biblical truth that you can be saved by simply believing the Gospel without praying a sinner's prayer. John 3:16, “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.”

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.” If people would just SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES instead of following the teachings of men, they wouldn't be misled. Mark 7:9, “And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.” Let God be true, but every man a liar (Romans 3:4).

Sadly, there is an army of fools today who adamantly follow Pastor Steven Anderson in the New IFB, idolizing his every teaching while totally disregarding the commandments of God when he goes astray. For example: Pastor Anderson recently denied that Jesus was omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent while upon the earth. Folks, that is heresy! I love Pastor Anderson, but like all preachers he sometimes strikes out when he bats.

Respectfully, Pastor Anderson is also wrong that you must call, ask and pray to be saved. In a futile attempt to justify his heresy, he cites John 4:10, “Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.” But if you read the rest of chapter 4 not one mention is made of any Samaritans asking Christ to save them. The Bible says “many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, which testified, He told me all that ever I did” (John 4:39). John 4:41, “And many more believed because of his own word.” No Samaritan asked Jesus to save them, the Bible says they simply BELIEVED and were instantly saved.

Modern Bible Versions Use The Same Alexandrian Text As Jehovah's Witnesses

2nd Corinthians 2:17, “For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.”

I have in front of me a book published in 1969 by the Jehovah's Witness titled, “The Kingdom Interlinear Translation Of The Greek Scriptures.” Here is a disturbing quote from the first page:

“Presenting a literal word-for-word translation into English under the Greek text as set out in 'The New Testament in the Original Greek'—The Text Revised by Brooke Foss Westcott D.D. and Fenton John Anthony Hort D.D.” (1948 Reprint) together with the New World Translation of the Christian Greek Scriptures, Revised Edition, a modern-language translation of the Westcott and Hort Greek text, first published by them in the year 1881 C.E., with which are included the valuable Foreword and the Appendix of the said translation, with numerous footnotes and an Explanation of the Symbols Used in the Marginal References.

You can easily verify on Wikipedia that Westcott and Hort's Greek translation came from the Alexandrian, Egypt manuscripts. These were corrupt texts. It shouldn't be surprising that Satan would corrupt the Words of God, as he has done so since the first humans were created in the Garden of Eve. In Genesis 3:1 the serpent (Satan according to Revelation 20:2) came to Eve and lied, changing God's Words. God told Adam and Eve in Genesis 2:16b-17, “Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.” Satan changed God's Word, lying to Eve in Genesis 3:1, “Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?”

Satan tricked Eve by making a false statement in the form of a seemingly innocent question. My dear friend, the Devil is much smarter than you or I. The Devil has been deceiving people, leading them into the fires of Hell for thousands of years. Don't think that Satan isn't a master liar and con artist (2nd Corinthians 11:13-15). The Holy Bible warns us about Satan's methods, telling us that he comes to us in sheep's clothing, appearing as an angel of light; and also Satan's ministers appear as righteous men (2nd Corinthians 11:13-15). This couldn't be more true than in the case of Brooke Westcott (1825-1901) and Fenton Hort (1828-1892).

Who were Westcott and Hort? They were two unsaved Bible critics! Both Westcott and Hort were two non-Christian Anglican ministers. They believed the Alexandrian philosophy that “there is no perfect Bible.” They hated the King James Bible and its Antiochian Greek text, the Textus Receptus. [The infidelity of Westcott and Hort is well documented in Evangelist Sam Gipp's awesome 1987 book titled, “An Understandable History of the Bible” (.pdf file). Proverbs 14:12, “There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.” The modern so-called “easier to read” Bible revisions may seem right, but they are of the Devil, corruptible word, that bring death.

There's a lot of heresy online written by Baptist preachers concerning the Word of God. Many foolish and woefully ignorant theologians defend and promote the Alexandrian texts, which clearly attack the deity of Jesus Christ. Look inside any modern Bible you'd like, and you will horrifyingly discover that they brutally attack Christ's deity in all key Scripture passages. It is tragic that so many Baptist preachers refuse to see this injustice to the Words of God. Even more tragic is that most Baptist pastors have plainly been warned of what Satan is doing, corrupting the Words of God, but like the chief rulers in John 12:42-43, “they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God” (verse 43). Only the trustworthy King James Bible upholds the Godhead, deity of Jesus, and His preeminence.

Thank God for the small handful of faithful Independent Fundamental Baptist preachers (and others) who uphold the incorruptible Antiochan (Antioch, Syria) text, the Textus Receptus (or Majority Text), from which our beloved King James Bible comes!

The satanic cult of Jehovah's Witnesses (JW's) officially began in 1874, founded by Charles Taze Russell. The JW's deny Christ's deity. They teach that Jesus is “a god,” but not “almighty God.” JW's believe Christ resurrected in spirit only, not bodily. JW's deny the Godhead (Trinity). They deny the Person of the Holy Spirit. JW's deny the existence of an eternal burning Hell for all Christ-rejecters. Similar to the satanic cult of Seventh-day Adventism (SDA's), JW's teach annihilation (you cease to exist).

Please understand that the Jehovah's Witnesses deny Jesus' deity and the Godhead. No wonder they love the Alexandrian text and the heretical Greek translation produced by Westcott and Hort. As I showed you earlier, JW's used the Alexandrian text for their New World Translation (NWT). Yes, it was named in lieu of the New World Order (NWO). In order for Satan to prepare the world to receive the coming Antichrist, he needs to destroy all existing religions and governments. To achieve this goal, Satan has used Luciferian occult groups to corrupt the Bible and infiltrate the churches.

Most of our Independent Baptist churches today are more interested in surviving, than they are fighting the good fight of faith. Shame on any pastor who uses, supports and promotes the modern Bible revisions! They are corruptible seed. Genesis 3:15, “And I will put enmity (make enemies) between thee (Satan) and the woman, and between thy seed (corruptible Bible revisions) and her seed (Jesus Christ, the incorruptible Word of God); it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.” All modern Bible versions are corrupted seed!

Wake up! Get right with God! Throw your Bible paraphrases into the garbage can! Use ONLY the King James Bible!!!

The apostle Peter had difficulty understanding some of the Pauline Epistles (don't we all). Peter didn't ask for a simpler Bible, or a revision, or a paraphrase. No, he left the Word of God as it was written! 2nd Peter 3:16, “As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.” It is evil to tamper with the Words of God. The fact that the word “sodomite” has been removed from the modern Bible revisions ought to raise a red flag! Oh, how foolish are many pastors today! Oh, how foolish are many church congregations today! Oh, how foolish are many deacon boards today!

And may I say, truthfully, if any church or Bible college remains silent on the matter of the “THE BATTLE OF THE AGES” (an awesome MP3 by Dr. Hyles) over the Holy Bible, they are cowardly and accomplices to Satan's evil agenda. Anyone who loves the Lord Jesus Christ can plainly see that Satan is intentionally corrupting God's pure words to deceive people. All of the modern Bible revisions remove every mention of someone “worshipping” Jesus, and instead changes it to “bow” or “knelt.” If I accidentally drop something on the ground and kneel down to pick it up, I haven't “worshipped” that object. Likewise, a person could kneel before a king in homage without worshipping him. The King James Bible wonderfully upholds Christ's deity, that He is almighty God. In the pure words of God, people “worshipped” Jesus because He walked this earth as God almighty in the flesh.

You need to understand how the New International Version (NIV) was assembled. The Committee On Biblical Translation (CBT) gathered together (by invitation) several dozen religious groups to get their opinions, to determine what Scriptures would be butchered, changing the Words of God to satisfy the whims and skepticism of differing religious groups. Consequently, the NIV is a watered-down manuscript of jibber-jabber, not the inspired and preserved Words of God. Even the most unlearned Bible student can clearly see that the modern Bible versions all disrespect, distort, damage and diminish the doctrine of the Lord Jesus Christ!!!

For example: 1st Timothy 3:16 in the King James Bible reads, “GOD WAS MANIFEST IN THE FLESH” (This refers to the triune Godhead becoming incarnate in the man Jesus Christ); but the New International Version ridiculously changes it to a meaningless, “HE APPEARED IN THE FLESH.” The former attests to Christ's deity, the latter says nothing! The popular Easy-To-Read Version (ERV) changes it to a meaningless, “CHRIST WAS SHOWN TO US IN HUMAN FORM.” The Voice changes it to a meaningless, “HE WAS REVEALED IN THE FLESH.” The New American Standard Bible (NASB) changes it to a meaningless, “HE WHO WAS REVEALED IN THE FLESH.” Only the authorized King James Bible, which is the inspired and preserved Words of God, teaches the truth that GOD WAS MANIFEST IN THE FLESH, fully proclaiming the deity of the Lord Jesus Christ!!!!!!! When you saw Jesus, you saw the Father! When you spoke with Jesus, you spoke with the Holy Spirit! Colossians 2:9, “For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.”

If you are using and supporting the modern Bible revisions, YOU ARE GOD'S ENEMY!!! That is what we read in Genesis 3:15. God said that He would make enemies between the corruptible seed of Satan and the incorruptible Word of God. 1st Peter 1:23, “Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.” You cannot be saved from the Alexandrian text! They are corrupted. The Alexandrian text teach Lordship Salvation in Romans 10:9.

The Alexandrian text perverts the meaning of repentance, thus changing the plan of salvation. The purpose of Westcott and Hort producing a Greek New Testament, based upon the Alexandrian manuscripts, was to begin the process of destroying America's churches. Few churchgoers realize that the most popular revision in churches today, the New International Version (NIV), changed its content by 38.8% between the NIV 1984 and the NIV 2011. Praise God, the King James Bible hasn't changed one bit!!!

If your church is using any of the modern Bible revisions, you are in the same boat as the Jehovah's Witness' satanic cult, using the same corrupted Alexandrian texts which attack the Lord Jesus Christ!!! If that's you, don't you dare sing about how much you love Jesus, because Jesus is the Word of God (Revelation 19:13; John 1:1-3 14 - All quotes are only from the inspired King James Bible). You might as well follow “ANOTHER JESUS” (2nd Corinthians 11:3-4) if you are using the New American Standard Bible (NASB), or The Voice (VOICE), or the Easy-To-Read Version (ERV), or Good News For Modern Man (GNT), or the New Century Translation (NCT), or the New Living Translation (NLT), or the New King James Version (NKJV), or the New Revised Standard Version (NRSV), or The Message (MSG), or the Modern English Version (MEV), or the New Life Version (NLV) or the Lexham English Bible (LEB), and hundreds more PERversions of God's Words!!!

DO YOU CARE? Bob Jones University doesn't care! Moody Bible Institute doesn't care! Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary doesn't care! Dallas Theological Seminary doesn't care! Bible colleges all across America don't care! WE'LL I CARE! GOD CARES!!!!!!! It matters which Bible we use, teach and support! It is sad to know that Bible colleges don't care about Satan corrupting God's Word (They might step on some important toes). If you care, speak up! 

If you don't believe the King James Bible is God's inspired, inerrant, preserved, Words, then tell me which one you think it is! But don't you tell me that the Creator of the universe was too inept to keep His promise to preserve His “pure words” unto every generation in Psalms 12:6-7, “The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.” All of the modern Bible revisions change (pervert) this passage of Scripture, saying that God preserves the saints instead of His pure words. Of course the Devil changed it, because if this promise is still valid (and it is), then the 900 English revisions of the Bible cannot all be the incorruptible words of God!!!

Have you believed a lie? If you use, support and teach from the counterfeit modern Bible revisions, don't you dare criticize the Jehovah's Witnesses, because you are using THE SAME Greek Alexandrian text that they have been using for over a century! And may I say kindly, you are just as woefully blinded and ignorant to the truth as the JW's are. But WOE UNTO YOU PREACHERS who have been warned, yet you still continue using, teaching, preaching and supporting Satan's corrupt seed!!! Mark 7:9b, “Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.” Using the corrupted Bible revisions has become a tradition amongst neo-evangelical churches in America. They're now the Devil's camps, using corruptible seed.

Thank God for the inspired, infallible, inerrant, perfect, preserved, authoritative, authorized, King James Bible!

Someone Who Once Believed In Christ But Now Denies Him Is Not Saved

1st John 2:18-19, “Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us. But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things.”

Respectfully, I humbly disagree with Pastor Tom Cucuzza, who is the senior pastor at Northland Bible Baptist Church in St. Cloud, Minnesota. I humbly disagree with Dr. Cucuzza in the following sermon excerpt that a person who walks away from salvation in unbelief is saved. The full sermon is titled, “Secure Forever! - Part 4: The Permanence of Salvation, Part 1.” Here is an excerpt...

Must a Believer Remain Faithful? - Pastor Tom Cucuzza

I agree with Pastor Cucuzza that salvation cannot be lost. I agree that you don't have to remain faithful to get to Heaven. I agree that salvation is permanent. But the inspired Holy Bible says in 1st John 2:19 that if someone leaves the church it is because “they were not of us” (i.e., they were never saved to begin with). The word “unction” simply refers to the work of the blessed Holy Spirit in the soul of a Christian, who teaches and guides every saint of God (John 16:13). Here is some helpful Bible exegesis from The Study Bible...

But ye have an unction (anointing) from the Holy One
The term "anointing" refers to the spiritual empowerment and consecration believers receive from God. In the Old Testament, anointing with oil was a symbolic act for priests, prophets, and kings, signifying their divine appointment and empowerment (Exodus 30:30, 1 Samuel 16:13). In the New Testament, this anointing is understood as the work of the Holy Spirit, who indwells and empowers believers (2 Corinthians 1:21-22). The "Holy One" is a title often used for God, emphasizing His purity and separateness from sin (Isaiah 6:3). In the context of 1 John, it likely refers to Jesus Christ, who imparts the Holy Spirit to His followers (John 14:26). This anointing enables believers to discern truth from falsehood, a critical theme in John's epistle as he addresses the presence of false teachers and antichrists (1 John 2:18-19). SOURCE: Bible Hub

Now, that being said, this doesn't mean someone who becomes disgruntled and leaves a church is not saved. Nor does it mean that someone who doesn't go to church is not saved. In my humble opinion, I believe this Scripture passage is referring to people who once professed faith in Christ, but then left and no longer profess Christianity. They were never saved at all.

I am NOT a Calvinist. I reject all 5 tenets of Calvinism. I do not believe in the perseverance of the believer to be saved, which would constitute works for salvation. I do however believe in the perseverance of the indwelling Holy Spirit (Hebrews 13:5). If you are saved, you will always be saved. If you are a born again child of God, then you were indwelt and sealed with God's Holy Spirit at the time of the new birth, who will never leave nor forsake you, no matter what you say or do. The new birth is irreversible and irrevocable.

That being said, I kindly reject the silly idea that someone is saved who formerly claimed to be a Christian, but now openly denies faith in Jesus Christ. They may have once ascribed to some philosophies of Christianity, joined a Christian organization, or lived an outward Christian life, but they were never born again to begin with (Matthew 7:21-23). They've never been saved. The Bible says that is why they left Christ. I think it is ludicrous for preachers to go around saying that some atheists today are saved, because 15 or 20 years ago they previously had claimed to have faith in Christ. RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS!

Satan's greatest weapon is to con people into living the Christian life without ever being born again. To clarify, I am not teaching that you are not saved if there is no works to prove it. We are saved by God's grace through faith alone in Jesus Christ, and this is all done without works. What I am teaching is that if someone says they used to be a Christian, but now are an atheist or simply no longer trust in Christ, there is no way that they were ever saved at all.

You Don't Have To Be Water Baptized To Get To Heaven

Mark 16:16, “He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.”

Romans 1:16, “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”

1st Corinthians 1:17, “For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.”

Pastor Curtis Hutson (1934-1995) rightly said that a good rule to follow when interpreting the Bible is to never use an obscure passage to contradict a clear one. That is absolutely right! One of our text passages from Mark 16:16, taken by itself, might give the wrong impression that water baptism is required to get to Heaven, but it certainly is not. We must never base a doctrine on a single passage of Scripture! The Bible teaches that the man who does not believe is damned, which is consistent with the rest of Scripture. John 3:36, “He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.” Baptism does not save!

The inspired King James Bible is teaching in Mark 16:16 that water baptism cannot save someone. Faith is the only righteous thing that I can do. What saith the Scripture? Galatians 3:26-27, “For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.” The word “baptized” here does not refer to water baptism; but rather, to being submersed by faith into Christ. Jesus plainly said in John 6:47, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.”

According to John 20:31, the apostle penned the Gospel of John to shew us the way of salvation. Yet, not once does John teach the reader to be baptized to be saved. John 20:31, “  ” Clearly, faith in Jesus Christ is all that is required to be born again. Any admitted sinner who receives Christ's sacrifice on the cross as full-payment for sins, believing that Jesus was buried, but then physically resurrected from the dead three days later is saved. This is “the gospel” (Good News) according to 1st Corinthians 15:1-6.

Water baptism is simply NOT a part of the Gospel of free grace. In literally hundreds of Bible passages we are taught to have faith in Christ to be saved, without any mention of baptism. Acts 10:43, “To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.” So, all of the Old Testament prophets gave witness that salvation came only through faith in Christ.

According to Galatians 1:6-7 there has always been only one plan of salvation, which includes both the Old and New Testaments. Anyone who comes to God as a needy sinner, and by faith places their reliance (trust) in Jesus, believing that He did it all for them through Calvary's cross, is instantly and forever saved. It is that easy, free and simple to be saved. Everything that is hard about getting saved is God's part. Our part is simply to BELIEVE ON THE LORD JESUS CHRIST (Acts 16:30-31).

Here are several biblical reasons why we know you DON'T have to be water baptized to get to Heaven...

1. No one in the Old Testament was water baptized to be saved.
2. The repentant thief on the cross was not baptized to go to Heaven (Paradise).
3. Nowhere does the Bible explicitly command anyone to be water baptized to be saved.
4. The Apostle John penned the Gospel of John for the purpose of convincing us that Jesus is the only begotten Son of God, the Christ; so that by BELIEVING we will be saved (John 20:31). John never teaches that baptism is required to get to Heaven.
5. In the Epistle of 1st John, the apostle states in 1st John 5:13 that the purpose of writing his epistle is help believers “know” that we are saved, yet John never mentions “baptism” once. If water baptism were required to be saved, then you can be assured that John would have emphasized the importance of making sure you've done it.
6. The Apostle Paul plainly said that Christ did NOT send him to baptize people, but instead to preach the Gospel. If water baptism were necessary for the new birth, Paul wouldn't have diminished baptism on his list of priorities as a missionary.
7. Many of the Samaritans believed on Christ and were saved in John chapter 4, but there is no mention of any of them being baptized. We know that Jesus' disciples did baptize some converts (John 4:1-2), but there is no evidence to confirm that all converts were baptized. Clearly, the thief on the cross didn't get baptized and it is very wrong to conclude that he was given an exception by God, which would constitute a different plan of salvation. Jesus taught in no uncertain terms in John 3:1-7 that unless a man is born again he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God. So, if water baptism is required for the new birth, then the repentant thief on the cross could not have been saved.

The inspired Holy Bible is full of examples of sinners who were saved without being baptized...

1. In Luke 7:37-50 we read about a woman who was saved without being baptized. Jesus said unto her in Verse 48, “Thy sins are forgiven.” And the Lord further adds in Luke 7:50b, “Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.” There is no mention of her being baptized. It would be wrong to attribute meaning to the Bible which it doesn't say.
2. The publican in Luke 18:13-14 was saved by faith without being baptized. He simply cried out, “God be merciful to me a sinner.” The Scripture tells us that the publican sinner was justified by faith. There is no mention of him being baptized. Luke 18:14a, “I tell you, this man went down to his house justified....”
3. In Luke 18:35-43 we read about a blind man who was saved by faith without being baptized. Luke 18:42, “And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath saved thee.” Faith is the only righteous thing that anyone can do.
4. In Luke 23:42 one of the dying thieves on the cross turned to Jesus and cried out, “Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.” Amidst His own pain and agony, Jesus replied, “Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.” The man's hands and feet were literally nailed to a wooden cross, so that he could do nothing to be saved except LOOK TO JESUS. Isaiah 45:22, “Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.”

The inspired Holy Bible plainly defines “the gospel” for us...

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 no mention of being baptized in Paul's gospel, which Galatians 1:12 says Paul received directly from Jesus Christ Himself. Then, how wicked and wrong it is for anyone to insist that someone must be water baptized to be saved. No such teaching is taught in the inspired Word of God. We are not saved by works. Salvation is not doing your best, it is having Christ's best put to your account through receiving Him by faith.

Those fools who errantly teach that baptism is required to get to Heaven wrest, misuse and pervert the Scripture, to their own destruction (2nd Peter 3:16-17). As Dr. Curtis Hutson wisely says, when studying the Bible we must never use an obscure passage of Scripture (like Mark 16:16) to contradict many clear passages. To the man with a hammer in his hand, everything begins to look like a nail sticking up. And to the man who views everything through a lens of baptism, he wrests the Word of God to agree with his false teaching.

The wicked Roman Catholic church does the same thing with the Bible, wickedly removing the second of God's Ten Commandments in a sinful attempt to hide their idolatry worshipping graven images and bowing to idols. Romans 1:25 warned that wicked people would change the truth of God's Word into a lie, and so it is. Beware of anyone who foolishly says that you cannot go to Heaven without being water baptized.

In every case of those who insist that you must be baptized with water to get to Heaven, they base their false doctrine on a tiny handful of cherry-picked Bible verses, obscure passages, while ignoring the vast majority of other Scripture passages that totally contradict them. The Bible makes it very plain that those who are trusting Christ are saved, and those who don't aren't. John 3:18, “He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” It is so obvious biblically that water baptism has no part in the new birth.

Dear reader, please beware of the deadly Church of Christ, Lutherans, Mormons, Roman Catholics, Jehovah's Witnesses, Seventh-Day Adventists and other religious denominations that foolishly require water baptism for salvation. What they are teaching was inspired by demons. There is no controversy if you believe the inspired Holy Bible. The required new birth to enter into God's Kingdom can be freely obtained through faith alone in Jesus Christ, not by water baptism. John 6:47, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.”

Beware Of The Corrupt 'New English Translation' (NET) Bible

2nd Corinthians 2:17, “For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.”

In 2001 a new corrupt revision of the Holy Bible was published, called the “New English Translation” (NET). After numerous subsequent updates the NET was completed in 2019. Tragically, it contains the same corruptions as all of the other Brooke Westcott and Fenton Hort based perversions. Pastor Jack Hyles was absolutely right, who said: “If you've seen one Westcott and Hort Bible you've seen 'em all.”

Here are eleven serious corruptions in the NET...

New English Translation (NET) - 2nd Corinthians 2:17, “For we are not like so many others, hucksters who peddle the word of God for profit, but we are speaking in Christ before God as persons of sincerity, as persons sent from God.”

King James Bible (KJB) - 2nd Corinthians 2:17, “For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.”

There is a big difference between peddling versus corrupting God's Word. The unethical modern Bible publishers are indeed guilty of peddling the inspired Holy Bible for profit, but they are moreover guilty for CORRUPTING God's inspired Word.

New English Translation (NET) - 1st John 5:7, “For there are three that testify.”

King James Bible (KJB) - 1st John 5:7, “For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.”

The Devil's modern Bible perversions obliterate the Godhead (i.e., Trinity). You won't find the word “Godhead” in most of the modern revisions of the Bible (cf. Acts 17:29, Romans 1:20 and Colossians 2:9 in the King James Bible). Why would they attack the fundamental doctrine of the triune nature of God? The answer is obvious, because Satan doesn't want people to come to Christ to be saved. No one who has “another Jesus” can be saved (2nd Corinthians 11:3-4).

New English Translation (NET) - John 3:16, “For this is the way God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.”

King James Bible (KJB) - John 3:16, “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.”

In fact, Jesus is not God's one and only son. Every born again saint is an adopted son of God according to John 1:12 and Romans 8:15. Jesus is the only begotten (biological) Son of God. Any Bible revision that removes the word “begotten” from John 3:16 is attacking Jesus' deity; it is demonic trash.

New English Translation (NET) - Psalms 12:6-7, “The Lord’s words are absolutely reliable. They are as untainted as silver purified in a furnace on the ground, where it is thoroughly refined. You, Lord, will protect the oppressed; you will continually shelter each one from these evil people,”

King James Bible (KJB) - Psalms 12:6-7, “The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.”

This is one of the most egregious corruptions in all modern revisions. Whereas the inspired King James Bible teaches that God keeps (guards) and preserves (protects, maintains) His pure Words, the Devil's modern perversions change the Scripture to say that God protects the oppressed or the saints. The reason why evil Bible translators change this passage is obvious, because they need to justify publishing hundreds of Bible revisions that all differ in meaning and context. If God has kept His solemn promise to keep and preserve His inspired Words, then there can be only one true Holy Bible in any particular language.

New English Translation (NET) - 1st Timothy 3:16, “And we all agree, our religion contains amazing revelation: He was revealed in the flesh, vindicated by the Spirit, seen by angels, proclaimed among Gentiles, believed on in the world, taken up in glory.”

King James Bible (KJB) - 1st Timothy 3:16, “And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.”

Who is “He”? This is another attack on Jesus' deity. Why change “God” to “He”? The answer is obvious—the Devil is denying Christ's deity, that Jesus is almighty God (Revelation 1:8). ...

New English Translation (NET) - Revelation 1:8, “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God—the one who is, and who was, and who is still to come—the All-Powerful!”

King James Bible (KJB) - Revelation 1:8, “I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.”

There is a difference between being all-powerful (omnipotent) and “the Almighty” (God).

New English Translation (NET) - 1st Corinthians 1:18, “For the message about the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. ”

King James Bible (KJB) - 1st Corinthians 1:18, “For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.”

There is a big difference between “are being saved” and “are saved.” Dear reader, if you have placed your childlike trust (reliance, faith) in Jesus Christ alone, then you are saved; you are not being saved, which implies an ongoing slow process. I hate all of the Devil's modern Bible revisions because they are very corrupt. They all attack Jesus' deity and the Godhead (Trinity).

New English Translation (NET) - Colossians 1:14, “in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.”

King James Bible (KJB) - Colossians 1:14, “In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:”

They removed the phrase “through his blood.” Why would they do that? These omissions may seem insignificant and trifle to some readers, but they strongly change the intended meaning of Scripture.

New English Translation (NET) - Romans 10:9, “because if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.”

King James Bible (KJB) - Romans 10:9, “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.”

The inspired King James Bible teaches to trust the Lord Jesus Christ. It doesn't teach to confess “Jesus is Lord” to be saved, which is the damnable heresy of Lordship Salvation.

New English Translation (NET) - Philippians 2:6, “who, though he existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God as something to be grasped,”

King James Bible (KJB) - Philippians 2:6, “Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:”

There is a 180 degree contradiction between the inspired King James Bible and all of Satan's modern Bible perversions! Whereas Jesus accepted His deity as God in the flesh, the modern corrupt versions teach that Jesus couldn't grasp being equal with God. I have even had deceived people try to convince me that Jesus is not God, citing from the modern perversions of the Bible. Burn your modern English revisions!!!

New English Translation (NET) - Isaiah 7:14, “For this reason the Lord himself will give you a confirming sign. Look, this young woman is about to conceive.”

King James Bible (KJB) - Isaiah 7:14, “Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.”

What kind of prophetic “sign” would a young woman that is pregnant be? What a joke! There have been billions of young pregnant women throughout history. But the inspired King James Bible rightly says that “a virgin” shall conceive. I hope you see dear reader how wicked, wrong and evil these modern English Bible revisions truly are. You can only trust your inspired King James Bible!!!

New English Translation (NET) - Matthew 8:2, “And a leper approached and bowed low before him, saying, “Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.”

King James Bible (KJB) - Matthew 8:2, “And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.”

You can kneel to propose in marriage without worshipping someone. You can bow before a king in honor without worshipping him. The Bible says that a man with the disease of leprously WORSHIPPED Jesus as God. Again, you can clearly see how Satan's modern Bible perversions attack Jesus' deity. Why do all of the modern translators have a problem with a leper worshipping Jesus? By the way, they change numerous other passages as well, replacing the word “worship” with a mere “bowed” or “knelt.”

It is absolutely tragic that ungodly Bible colleges, missionaries, pastors and churches today make light of this issue of fools tampering with God's Holy Word. I fully agree With Pastor M.R. DeHaan (1891-1965), who wisely said:

"Be on guard against any tampering with the Word, whether disguised as a search for truth, or a scholarly attempt at apparently hidden meanings; and beware of the confusion created by the senseless rash of new versions, translations, editions, and improvements upon the tried and tested Bible of our fathers and grandfathers."

SOURCE: THE TABERNACLE, p. 101

Bravo Pastor DeHaan! Folks, God only authored ONE BOOK; not two, not ten, not hundreds! 1st Corinthians 14:33 teaches that God is NOT the author of confusion, Satan is. God is not behind the insanity of having literally HUNDREDS of English Bible versions to select from today. According to the American Bible Society (ABS), there are approximately 900 different English Bible versions. ...

I am afraid no one can give you an exact number for the English translations and paraphrases of the Bible printed since Tyndale's New Testament of 1526. In part this is due to the difficulty of determining what should be defined as a new translation as opposed to a correction or a revision of an existing translation. There is the additional question of how we should count translations that include not a complete Bible or Testament, but just a group of books or even a single book. And then, of course, there is the difficulty of sheer numbers. With all these caveats in mind, the number of printed English translations and paraphrases of the Bible, whether complete or not, is about 900. [emphasis added]

Good night in the morning folks: 900 Bible versions? Great fluffy biscuits! Anyone who thinks that our good and faithful God approves, or is behind, this many English Bibles needs a reality check. The inspired Scripture teaches that THE LOVE OF MONEY is the culprit (1st Timothy 6:10). Sadly, the Bible publishing business has become a lucrative dirty racket. The sad and unpopular truth is that there's not a dime's difference between the New English Translation (NET) and all of the other fake Bible versions being sold today in religious bookstores.

Granted, the inspired King James Bible reads at a fifth grade reading level and does use some archaic English words, so you will need to study to learn it. That being said, I have never in my 45 years of being a born again child of God, been unable to learn what the King James Bible is saying. Shakespeare's literature uses archaic English language too, but we don't see the universities modernizing and rewriting Shakespeare to accommodate lazy students, do we. No Sir, we study Shakespeare in it's original form and beauty as intended. Likewise, the King James Bible doesn't need to be rewritten, it needs to be reread again and again.

We are living in a wicked generation of lazy readers, neo-evangelical apostates and unlearned fools who criticize the inspired King James Bible. The last thing that we need is another Bible revision! If you don't have a KING JAMES BIBLE, you don't have an inspired Holy Bible!!!
