I made this Blog to begin a commentary on the King James Bible. My goal is not to comment on every verse in the Bible, but to humbly share my knowledge of what I have learned in my 41 years as a born-again Christian. This will be an ongoing labor of love, with the goal of helping you dear reader to solidify your understanding of THE TRUTH. John 17:17, “Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.”
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.”
Andy Woods is the senior pastor of the Sugar Land Bible Church in Sugar Land, Texas. Unfortunately, with all his theological indoctrination and earned college degrees to wallpaper his office, he doesn't have enough spiritual discernment to either recognize or care, not to use and promote the Devil's corrupt Bible revisions.
The New American Standard Bible (NASB) is corrupt and Pastor Andy Woods shouldn't be using it. In the following video you can verify that Pastor Woods is using the New American Standard Bible (NASB). At 5:40 time in the video Woods uses the NASB, and also at 8:38 time in the sermon, but then at 28:11 time he quotes from the King James Bible. This is at best confusing, and at worst blasphemy against God. The man with two different watches never knows what time it is. The NASB is poison!!! The NASB and the King James Bible DO NOT agree! What is wrong with today's pastors that they tolerate Satan corrupting the inspired Word of God? ...
Acts 025 – The Spirit’s Power (Acts 4:1-12 - Dr. Andy Woods, 09-13-23)
Any so-called "Holy Bible" that removes the all-important word "begotten" from John 3:16 is a Devil's bible!!! The NASB removes "begotten" from John 3:16. To remove the word "begotten" makes the Bible a lie, because every born-again believer is an adopted son of God. 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.”
Every born again believer is an adopted son of God. Romans 8:15, “For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.” In sharp contrast, Jesus is the only "begotten" (biological) Son of God. So, we see clearly that Jesus in fact is NOT God's only Son; but rather, God's only BEGOTTEN (biological) Son. Jesus was born of a virgin. He did not have an earthly father. God Himself was Jesus' biological Father (Matthew 1:23). The modern Bible revisions attack the deity of Jesus. SHAME on any pastor who uses, supports and promotes the Devil's Bible PERversions.
The other day a religious woman scolded me on Facebook for preaching THE TRUTH that all modern English Bible revisions have been corrupted by Satan. She insisted that there are "other" English Bibles today (besides the King James Bible) that we can use. But when I asked her to name one, she refuses to carry on the conversation any further. The reason why is obvious, because she cannot name even one modern Bible today that isn't corrupt. You name one and I'll show you all the things wrong with it! I have several dozens comparison, like the following chart, that show how corrupt today's new Bibles really are. ...
Bible Changed To Obtain A Legal Copyright
Dear reader, I want to share a bunch more images that I have collected over the years, which show just how corrupt, unreliable and dangerous today's Bible revisions are. ...
ALL of the Modern Bible Revisions Are Corrupted
She is very wrong in what you say about there being other Bibles that are acceptable to read. Name one! The NASB is vile and corrupt, attacking Jesus' deity.
The serpent (Satan) caused the downfall of the human race by deceiving Eve. The serpent tricked Eve by starting off with the infamous question, "Hath God said..." (Genesis 3:1b). In the year 1881, Brooke Westcott and Fenton Hort introduced their so-called "new" and "more accurate" older texts to the world, which they claimed superseded the Textus Receptus from which our beloved King James Bible was translated in 1603-1611.
It is upon the perverse Westcott and Hort text that all modern Bible revisions are either wholly based, or partially influenced. You can tell quickly if your Bible is one of them, by checking John 3:16 to see if the word "begotten" is there. But that is not a perfect test though, because the New King James Version is also corrupt, but it does have "begotten" in John 3:16.
The NKJV in Matthew 7:13-14 says it is "hard" to get to Heaven. But the King James Bible says the way is "narrow," not hard. There's a big difference in meaning.
Just as the serpent in the Garden of Eden presented a new twist on God's Word, causing Eve to have to choose between TWO AUTHORITIES (God's Word and the serpent's word); so also do churchgoers have to choose today between the TWO AUTHORITIES of the inspired King James Bible (God), versus the non-inspired Westcott and Hort Bible revisions (the serpent).
We ought to make a fuss over the issue of the Bible. Sadly, 99% of clergy today couldn't care less. You are either not fully aware of the dangers of the Devil's modern Bible revisions, or like most churchgoers you don't care. I find that most churchgoers today just don't care. RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS! Since different Bibles says different things, they cannot all be God's Word.
I encourage you to read "False Bibles" by Pastor Jack Hyles.
Here is Pastor Al Lacy explaining that in any particular language there can be ONLY one true Holy Bible. As Dr. Lacy rightly preaches, there simple cannot be more than one Holy Bible, because they all same something different.
It matters which Bible version that we use. The King James Bible is not a "version," it is the inspired Word of God. I feel sorry for anyone who thinks that God wrote multiple Bibles, because the man with two different watches never knows what time it is. And the person with two different Bible versions will never know what THE TRUTH is. That is why the churches are full of heresy today (i.e., Lordship Salvation, misunderstood repentance, denying Jesus' deity, denying the Godhead, claiming that Martin Luther was saved, et cetera).
Once the Devil's bibles creep into a church or Bible college, it's just a matter of time until their doctrine becomes corrupt (which is what is happening at Bob Jones University (BJU) and Pensacola Christian College (PCC) today. I do believe that Andy Woods is a born again believer, simply because he teaches that salvation is obtained by faith in the Gospel of Jesus Christ without works. I was delighted to hear Pastor Dennis Rokser from Duluth, Minnesota preach at the Sugar Land Bible Church in Texas. The sermon is titled: 'Getting The Gospel Right And Wrong.' Yet, just because these pastors are correct on God's simple plan of salvation, doesn't justify or excuse their use and support of the Devil's Bible revisions.
If it is a small matter to you dear reader, that the NASB removed the word “begotten” from John 3:16 regarding Jesus, then you are foolish in your wrong thinking. RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS!!! Lest you don't know yet how wicked and corrupt the fathers of all modern Bibles were, Brooke Westcott and Fenton Hort, please listen to my dear friend Dr. Max D. Younce (1935-2023) these wicked religious imposters. Westcott and Hort were infidels who are today burning in Hell. Both of these men denied the most basic fundamentals of the Christian faith, yet they are wickedly held up still today as such brilliant Bible scholars by the apostate intelligencia.
So, kindly, there are no other Bibles that are okay to read today in the English language except the inspired King James Bible. All others are inferior or corrupt. I am saddened that Pastor Andy Woods has succumbed to Satan's plot to corrupt God's inspired Word. If today's preachers choose to go along with apostasy, refusing to contend for the faith once delivered unto the saints, then the churches are doomed. Revelation 3:2, “Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God.” Thank you for reading.
2nd Thessalonians 2:1-10, “Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.”
What Does The Bible Mean: "Except There Come A Falling Away First"?
There is great controversy over the interpretation of this passage of Scripture in 2nd Thessalonians 2:3-4, “Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.”
Let's begin by reviewing a helpful quote from one of my favorite Bible scholars, Dr. John R. Rice (18950-1980), who states in his Bible commentary on Revelation:
Note now the term “the day of Christ,” the same as “the day of the Lord,” when Christ sets up His Kingdom. It is not at hand until certain things occur (vs. 2).
1. First, there needs to be a “falling away,” literally a departure, that is, as we understand it the rapture of the saints, the “gathering together unto him” of verse 1. The Greek word here is apostacio, so it is natural for people to think that it means a religious apostasy, a falling from grace. But it can hardly mean that. The word is sometimes used for departure, and “the day of the Lord” is the time of Christ's return to conquer and reign. It waits not on a religious apostasy but on the departure of the saints. The Man of Sin cannot appear until that time. (See the book by E. Schuyler English entitled Re-thinking the Rapture.) Dr. Ironside and other scholars agreed that the falling away here means the departure of the saints.
2. Nothing here is preliminary to the rapture, but a regular schedule of events to follow the rapture. Since we are often warned to expect daily the rapture, the first phase of Christ's coming at any moment, “in the twinkling of an eye,” there cannot be and are not any prophesied events to come before that rapture. So before the rise of Antichrist, before Daniel's seventieth week of years can begin, before the tribulation period, must come the rapture of the saints.
3. But then Someone “who now letteth” or restrains the course of history so that the Man of Sin cannot appear—who is He? That Restrainer is the Holy Spirit. His worldwide influence through born-again Christians makes it so the restored Roman empire cannot rise nor the Antichrist appear until Christians are taken out and and thus the influence through them of the Holy Spirit is removed from its restraining power on the wicked world.
How many men have tried to build a world empire after the decay of Rome, as such an empire! Charlemagne, the pope,

Now, I have tremendous respect and admiration for Dr. John R. Rice, but I humbly disagree with his interpretation of 2nd Thessalonians 2:3. It is my humble opinion that to say that this is the Rapture is reaching. I've read Dr. Rice say elsewhere that where the Bible is silent we should be silent. I agree with that statement. Also, Dr. Rice has said elsewhere that the best way to interpret the Bible is to let the Bible interpret itself. Again, I fully agree with that wisdom.
I would now like to quote some commentary from Halley's Bible Handbook, with which interpretation I agree:
II THESSALONIANS Further Instruction About The Lord's Coming
Written, probably about A.D. 52, only a few weeks, or months, after the First Epistle. In that Paul had spoken of the Lord's Coming as being sudden and unexpected. In this he explains that it will not be until after the Apostasy.
Chapter 1, The Day of the Lord
The particular feature of the Lord's coming emphasized in this chapter is that it will be a day of terror for the disobedient. In 1 Thessalonians 4 Paul had said that He would descend from heaven, and, at the shout of the archangel, the Church would be caught up forever to be forever with the Lord.
Here he adds that the Lord will be accompanied with “the angels of his power in flaming fire” (7), rendering vengeance to the disobedient. Jesus had spoken of “eternal fire” (Matthew 25:41), and “unquenchable fire” (Mark 9:43). In Hebrews 10:27 “devouring fire” is connected with the day of judgment. In II Peter 3:7, 10 it is stated that the destiny of the earth is to be burned with “fire” (see note on the passage).
Chapter 2, The Apostasy The express purpose of this Epistle was to caution the Thessalonians that the Lord's Coming was not immediately at hand; that it would not be until after the Apostasy.
What is the Apostasy? It is called the “falling away,” in which a person called the “man of sin,” in the temple of God professes himself to be God, and exalts himself against God (3, 4). A False Church headed by an Imposter.
The early fathers unanimously looked for a Personal Antichrist, to be manifested after the fall of the Roman Empire.
The Protestant Reformers, being directly in touch with the awful corruption of the Church of the Middle Ages, believed the Papacy, an institution headed up in person, usurping to itself authority that belongs only to Christ and being itself responsible for the prevailing corruption to have been a manifestation of the man of sin.
In our own times, after 2,000 years of church history, there is still wide difference of opinion. There are many who think it refers to a period immediately before the Lord's Coming.
The spirit of the thing was already at work in Paul's day (7). The story of the Church as a whole, even to this day, makes a sorry looking picture. Taking a broad general view of the visible Church, as it has existed from the first century to the present time, it is not inaccurate to call it an Apostate Church. What the final culmination is to be is yet to be seen.
“That which remains,” (6), was general understood by the early father to have been the Roman Empire. Some take it to mean the Holy Spirit.
Paul's Ideas of the Second Coming. It is quite common among a certain class of critics to say that Paul “had to reconstruct his ideas about the Lord's Second Coming,” that his “earlier and cruder view” contradicts his later view. This is absolutely not true. Paul's earlier view was his only view, first, last and always. The Thessalonian Epistles are his earliest extant writings. In them he specifically states that he did NOT expect the immediate appearance of the Lord, and that it would not be till after the Apostasy, which in his day was only beginning to work. It may not have been revealed to Paul what the Apostasy would be. But whatever his idea of it, it did not preclude the possibility that the Lord would come in his own lifetime, evidenced by the expression “we that are alive” (1 Thessalonians 4:15; 1 Corinthians 15:52). First and last Paul looked for the Lord's Coming as a glorious consummation, meanwhile anticipating the eventuality of, in death, “departing to be with Christ” (Philippians 1:23); it not being any great matter whether he was in the body or out of it at the time of the Coming. In his last written word (II Timothy 4:6, 8), at the time of his “departure,” his mind was on the “appearing” of the Lord.

There is nothing, in my own humble opinion, in 2nd Thessalonians 2:3 which indicates that this passage refers to the Rapture event, when the Church is taken out of the world. Let us review the Scripture passage in question:
2nd Thessalonians 2:3-4, “Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.”
To be frank, we simply don't know for certain what the phrase “a falling away” means. Some Bible students think the phrase refers to the Rapture. (By the way, I always capitalize the word Rapture because it refers to a proper noun, in this case an event.) Other Bible students think it refers to worldwide Apostasy. Search the internet for articles about "vanishing Christianity" and other similar searches, and you will find umpteen disturbing articles; such as this one.
I also encourage you dear reader to visit the Pre-trib.org website, which contains hundreds of helpful articles in defense of a Pretribulation Rapture.
Why Gen Z is Leaving Christianity
The Decline of Mainline Churches in America (2023)
Listen to what occultist Alice Bailey (1880-1949) said:
“The new world religion is nearer than many think, and this is due to two things: first, the theological quarrels are mainly over non-essentials, and secondly, the younger generation is basically spiritual but quite uninterested in theology. The intelligent youth of all countries are rapidly repudiating orthodox theology, state ecclesiasticism and the control of the church. They are neither interested in man-made interpretations of truth nor in past quarrels between the major world religions.
At the same time, they are profoundly interested in the spiritual values and are earnestly seeking verification of their deep-seated unvoiced recognitions. They look to no bible or system of so-called inspired spiritual knowledge and revelation, but their eyes are on the undefined larger wholes in which they seek to merge and lose themselves, such as the state, an ideology, or humanity itself. In this expression of the spirit of self-abnegation may be seen the appearance of the deepest truth of all religion and the justification of the Christian message.
Christ, in His high place, cares not whether men accept the theological interpretations of scholars and churchmen, but He does care whether the keynote of His life of sacrifice and service is reproduced among men; it is immaterial to Him whether the emphasis laid upon the detail and the veracity of the Gospel story is recognised and accepted, for He is more interested that the search for truth and for subjective spiritual experience should persist; He knows that within each human heart is found that which responds instinctively to God, and that the hope of ultimate glory lies hid in the Christ-consciousness.
Therefore, in the new world order, spirituality will supersede theology; living experience will take the place of theological acceptances. The spiritual realities will emerge with increasing clarity and the form aspect will recede into the background; the new emerging truths. These truths will be founded on the ancient realities but will be adapted to modern need and will manifest progressively the revelation of the divine nature and quality. God is now known as Intelligence and Love. That the past has given us. He must be known as Will and Purpose, and that the future will reveal.” [emphasis added]
Alice Bailey was inspired by a devil. I don't know if you caught it in the preceding quote, but Miss Bailey teaches that Jesus doesn't care if people accept or reject the Gospel, just so long as they have what she terms, “the Christ-consciousness”...
“Christ, in His high place, cares not whether men accept the theological interpretations of scholars and churchmen, but He does care whether the keynote of His life of sacrifice and service is reproduced among men; it is immaterial to Him whether the emphasis laid upon the detail and the veracity of the Gospel story is recognised and accepted, for He is more interested that the search for truth and for subjective spiritual experience should persist; He knows that within each human heart is found that which responds instinctively to God, and that the hope of ultimate glory lies hid in the Christ-consciousness.” [emphasis added]
In other words, Alice Bailey is teaching people to reject everything that the Word of God teaches, except for Christ's life of sacrifice for others. In the shameful, satanic, world of Miss Bailey, Christianity is summed up and limited to living for others without being born-again. This is why we often hear new agers talking about Christ's love, helping others and forgiveness; but they reject Christ's preaching against sin (John 7:7), the need for the new second birth, His command to “SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES” (John 5:39) and the Lord's teachings on everlasting Hell, fire and damnation for the unsaved (Matthew 18:8; 25:41).
Effectively, new age retains the outer shell of Christianity, while hollowing out the interior and instead filling it with Luciferian doctrine. Or in other words, new age is repackaging Devil-worship in a Christian wrapper. The Bible warns us that this is how Satan normally operates...
2nd Corinthians 11:13-15, “For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.”
My Christian brethren and sisters, what I have just shared with you ought to complete some of the missing puzzle pieces to explain what is going on in the world today. I believe this worldwide departure from organized religion, into a personal form of spirituality without Bible theology is part of the Apostasy Paul mentioned in 2nd Thessalonians 2:3. Alice Bailey's plot to build a New World Order is premised upon drawing youth away from Christianity and preparing them to embrace the Man of Sin (the Antichrist) when he comes.
Again, I humbly agree with Dr. Henry H. Halley that the intriguing phrase in 2nd Thessalonians 2:3b, “a falling away,” doesn't refer to the Rapture; but rather, to a literal Apostasy in the end times. We are certainly seeing this in the world today. This Apostasy, I humbly think, simply refers to the world departing from faith in the God of the Holy Bible, to follow after what Commander William Guy Carr (1895-1959) termed it: a 'Godless Global Totalitarian Communist Police State.' To accomplish this sinister plot, otherwise known as a New World Order (NWO), Satan knows that he must corrupt the inspired Word of God, to remove it from people's lives. Amos 8:11, “Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD:”
It was mentioned in the news this week that NWO kingpin, World Economic Forum (WEF) chairman, Klaus Schwab is calling for a new Bible revision that will correct the religions. Klaus wants the Bible “rewritten” by artificial intelligence (AI) to create a globalized “new Bible.” Yuval Noah Harari, the senior advisor to the WEF and its chairman Klaus Schwab, argues that using AI to replace scriptures will create unified “religions that are actually correct.” Good luck with that... lol. Dear reader, the Devil is a liar and the father of all murders, liars and thieves!!!
With approximately 900 English Bible versions today (either in part or whole), this is Apostasy. With the Devil's lie of Lordship Salvation being preached in 85% of Baptist churches today, this is Apostasy. With youth worldwide leaving from the churches, this is Apostasy. The world as a whole is headed for something dark and sinister and evil, the coming of Antichrist, also known as, the “Man of Sin” (2nd Thessalonians 2:3).
Many Lost Sinners Will Be Saved During The 7-Year Tribulation
Many people will be saved during the 7-year Tribulation period. They will be saved by faith alone in Christ, just as lost sinners have always been. Some false teachers like Robert Breaker on YouTube, and the late Dr. Peter S. Ruckman (1921-2016) errantly teach that Old Testament saints, and those after the Rapture during the 7-year Tribulation, get saved by keeping God's commandments (i.e., the law). These false prophets (Robert Breaker and Ruckman, and William P. Grady sadly) teach that Old Testament and Tribulation saints get saved by faith plus works. But nothing could be further from the truth. Acts 10:43, "To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins." This Scripture passage plainly teaches that people have always been saved by faith without works.
I humbly believe that the 144,000 saints mentioned in the book of Revelation will be born-again believers, who will be Jews, and they will preach the Gospel throughout the world. Many people will be saved, likely tens of millions. I highly recommend reading some free online books by Pastor Max D. Younce...
Also, here is the helpful book: "SOME GOLDEN DAYBREAK" by Pastor Lee Roberson (1909-2007).
All saints, dead first, then the living, will be removed from the earth at the Rapture (1st Corinthians 15:51-58), which could happen at any time. I believe that the Bible teaches a Pretribulation Rapture, that is, the Church will be removed BEFORE the 7-year Tribulation happens. After the Tribulation, millions of people around the world will wonder what has happened. They will be confused, because MOST professed "Christians" will still be on earth, so how could this have been the Rapture? The Mormons, Jehovah's Witnesses, Roman Catholics, Seventh-Day Adventists, Church of Christ, Lordship Salvationist Baptists and Lutherans (to name but a few cults today) will still be here on earth. They won't get raptured because they are not saved, and never were at all. So very FEW people will be taken at the Rapture.
The inspired Word of God will still be here on earth after the Rapture. Many people will read the Bible, and hear sermons left behind by fundamentalist Bible, free grace Gospel, preachers (e.g., Pastors' Ralph Yankee Arnold, Jack F. Hyles, Harry A. Ironside and Steven L. Anderson), which lost sinners will listen to and be saved. So, yes, many sinners (likely tens of millions) will be saved during the Tribulation, and many of them will be brutally martyred for their Christian faith. At present, in 2023 we just surpassed the 8,000,000,000 population mark for the planet. That number could increase much higher before Christ returns, but we don't know for sure if this is true, since Jesus could come back at any moment. Even so, come, Lord Jesus!!!
Romans 10:11, “For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.”
What Does Romans 10:11 Mean? I have heard some radio preachers butcher this Scripture, teaching heresy. I've heard numerous preachers teach that a person is not saved if they are “ashamed” of Jesus. That is simply not true my friend. Peter was ashamed of Jesus, even denying that he knew Him (John 18:25-27). That is not what Romans 10:11 means at all. The Greek word for “ashamed” here is “kataischuno” and means “put to shame, disgrace.” God is saying that whosoever trusts upon the Lord will not be put to shame, i.e., he will not be disgraced.
Romans 10:11 is a quote from the Old Testament. Isaiah 28:16, “Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth SHALL NOT MAKE HASTE.” If we simply cross-reference the Scripture, then we easily find the correct interpretation of Romans 10:11. The Bible is not so lengthy that it cannot be read through in a few months by the average person. Certainly if we read the Holy Bible on a regular basis, we are going to read Bible passages that remind us of other passages, and that is how we learn the Bible.
I heard a sincere Baptist preacher claim that the 54 King James Bible translators made a mistake when they translated Romans 10:11, “For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.” According to this pastor, the scholars who worked on the King James Bible should have used the words “should not” instead of “shall not.” But respectfully, that pastor got it all wrong! As I have already shown you from Isaiah 28:16, this passage is not speaking about believers who are ashamed of being identified with Jesus (as was the Apostle Peter); but rather, this passage is about believers who will NEVER be ashamed in the future, if Jesus were to fail to keep His promises.
By the way, this is a good example of why I strongly discourage anyone from attempting to correct the Word of God. We are not supposed to CORRECT the Bible; the Bible is supposed to CORRECT us. The Bible doesn't need to be rewritten, it needs to be reread. The New Testament quotes the Old Testament HUNDREDS of times. Scholars set that number of quotes at roughly 300. In such passages, we already know that we need to refer to the Old Testament, if we want to correctly interpret that New Testament passage. The Old Testament is the New Testament CONCEALED; and the New Testament is the Old Testament REVEALED. Such is the case in Romans 10:11a, “For the scripture saith...” Romans 10:11 plainly tells us that the apostle Paul is quoting the Old Testament. Unfortunately, lazy preachers fail to look at what the Old Testament says and end up teaching false doctrine.
I heard a radio preacher years ago in Chicago say, that you are not saved if you're ashamed of Jesus, and then he quoted Romans 10:11 to prove his false teaching, taking the Bible verse out of context. Peter was ashamed of knowing Jesus (Matthew 26:70-75). The chief rulers who believed on Jesus were ashamed of confessing Him (John 12:42-43). Yet, they were saved securely. Being ashamed of Jesus doesn't mean you're not saved, it just means that you love the praise of men more than the praise of God (John 12:43). All of the apostles forsook Jesus during His darkest hour of betrayal and trial. They were scared.
Isaiah 28:16 plainly reveals what Romans 10:11 means—God PROMISES that whosoever trusts upon the Lord Jesus Christ for salvation will NOT be disgraced, will not be disappointed, will not be let down. JESUS NEVER FAILS!!!
Psalms 119:165, “Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.”
I hear preachers get the meaning of this Bible verse wrong all the time. The Hebrew word for “offend” in Psalms 119:165 is mikshol, which means “a stumblingblock; cause to fall.” This Bible verse means that if you abide in God's Word, you won't stumble. The psalmist David elaborates elsewhere in his writings:
Psalms 1:1-3, “Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.”
The Christian who loves God's inspired Word, so that he or she abides, nurtures and continually feasts upon the Holy Bible, will be grounded like a strong tree with deep roots nourished alongside a flowing river. In that believer's season (time) they will bring forth fruit (souls won to Christ). In The Parable Of The Sower And The Seeds, we read concerning the last and obedient fourth group in Luke 8:15, “But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.”
Psalms 119:165 is not teaching that if you love the Bible, you won't be offended no matter what people do to you. I heard a preacher recently teach this misunderstanding of the passage. Folks, people are going to offend us all the time! Jesus said in Matthew 11:6, “And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me.” I am not offended to let the world know that I am a Christian. That is what Psalms 119:165 means, no one can cause our faith to falter. I wear my “Jesus” and “John 3:16” hat everywhere I go, advertising to the world that I am a child of God, and I am not ashamed of Jesus!!!
The Bible is teaching in Psalms 119:165 that if we abide in the inspired Holy Scriptures, we won't go astray:
1st Timothy 4:10-16, “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. These things command and teach. Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine. Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery. Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all. Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.”
I love those last verses. The Apostle Paul is telling young Timothy that by taking heed to RIGHT DOCTRINE (not false teaching), he will not only save himself, but those who hear him preach. The Greek word for “save” in Verse 16 is sozo, which means “to deliver, or protect.” This is where consulting the Hebrew, Chaldean or Greek really comes in handy when trying to rightly interpret the Bible. Without looking up the word “offended” in Psalms 119:165 in a Strong's Concordance (or something similar; I like BibleHub.com), you'd never be able to rightly discern the correct intended meaning of the passage. This is why we are commanded in 2nd Timothy 2:15 to “Study” the Word of Truth, to shew thyself approved unto God.
You can read the Bible all day, and mediate upon it all night, and still be offended by inconsiderate, mean, rotten and selfish people. When Jesus healed ten lepers of leprosy, only one bothered to return to thank Him. Jesus was offended! Luke 17:17-18, “And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine? There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger.” The Lord's feelings were hurt. People can be such ingrates, especially toward those who help them the most.
Dear reader, Psalms 119:165 simply means that if you live, heed and obey the Word of God, you won't go astray! You're in good hands with Jesus!!!
James 1:22-25, “But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.”
When I went to San Diego, California in 2010 for my second neck surgery, I saw a homeless man looking through a garbage can for food. I handed him $20 and a Gospel of John. He humbly thanked me and said something I'll never forget. He quoted the preceding passage and said: “Thank you for being a DOER of the Word, and not just a HEARER!” Wow! That was so cool. I got much more of a blessing that day than he did. God is so good! ...
Proverbs 4:7, “Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.”
Proverbs 4:23, “Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.”
If we will obey the Bible with God's help (Galatians 2:20), and draw close to our beloved Great Shepherd (James 4:8-17), then we will not be led astray from the truth and the joy that comes with having faith in God. Happiness is what happens to us. So we may not be happy most of the time (I'm not), but we can still have joy and peace 100% of the time in our miseries. Jesus told us in Luke 10:20 to rejoice, not because of external circumstances that can change, but only because our name is written in Heaven in the Lamb's Book Of Life. Peace is quiet of mind. Many people have: 'A Noisy Soul' (a tremendous sermon by Pastor Ron Haese).
God bless you dear reader! So, remember, nothing can cause you to stumble and bring offence to your walk with God, if you love God's Word and apply it to your life. Proverbs 3:5-7, “Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.” It is only when we allow doubt to become the precursor to fear, that we start to go astray.
Either the Bible and prayer will keep us from sin, or else sin will keep us from praying and abiding in the Scriptures. Don't just read the Bible friend, think about what it means and what God intends for you to do with it. Meditate therein about the deep and dark sayings of God's Word. I don't know about you, but I enjoy trying to discern what God means in various passages. I great place to always start, if you are not sure where to begin, is either in the books of Genesis, Proverbs or the Gospel of John. Those are my favorites!
The $64,000 question is: Do you love God's Word? Jesus is the Living Word; the Holy Bible is the Written Word. Dr. John R. Rice (1895-1980) used to wisely call Jesus and the Bible “twins.” Jesus' name is called: 'THE WORD OF GOD' (Revelation 19:13; John 1:1, 14). Jesus said in John 14:15 that if we love Him, we will keep His commandments. So to the same degree that we love the Holy Bible, to that same degree we love Jesus, and vise versa. Psalms 119:165, “Great peace have they which love thy law (Jesus): and nothing shall offend them.” No one truly loves Jesus who does not heed the inspired Word of God in obedience!!! Our relationship the the King James Bible is synonymous with our relationship to Christ. No one can reject the Bible and accept Christ, for they are effectively one and the SAME (John 1:1-3, 14). When we study the Bible, we are learning the mind of Christ.
Jesus commanded us in John 5:39 to SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES!!! You won't go astray friend, if you make the inspired Word of God your lighthouse to guide you through life's raging storms! Psalms 119:104-105, “Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way. Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” That is what Psalms 119:165 means!!! Psalms 119:165, “Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.” Nothing will sink your battleship! Nothing will cause you to stumble spiritually and choke you from maturing to win souls (Luke 8:14). Nothing will quench your faith!
So keep that in mind when you read Psalms 119:165, “Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.” This doesn't mean that you'll never be offended, it simply means that you won't stumble if you are grounded in the inspired Word of God. I have heard some pastors, like Steven Anderson, discourage people from studying the Hebrew and Greek, but this is a good example of why it helps at times to study the ancient languages from which our beloved King James Bible was translated.
Ephesians 1:13-14, “In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.”
One of my favorite YouTube preachers is Onorato (Norm) Diamante. In the following video Norm refutes a heretical YouTube preacher named Mike Winger...
“When to be Scared You're NOT a Genuine Christian” (Ono Reacts)
Genesis 6:1-4, “And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose. And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years. There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.”
Someone recently messaged me on Facebook to ask if I'd heard about the “bloodline of hybrid fallen angel-humans” (Nephilim). They were referring to a theoretical secret bloodline (offspring) of fallen angels who allegedly had carnal knowledge with human females and conceived a race of literal physical giants. I've even heard a Baptist preacher teach that 600 foot giants existed back in ancient times. Uh, no, they didn't. And there is no secret bloodline of the Nephilim. I am sorry to rain on your parade, all you conspiracy theorists.
Pastor Curtis Hutson (1934-1995) preached a Wednesday night Bible study series in 1974 called: 'DEMONOLOGY.' It is an excellent series that I highly recommend. Albeit, I love and admire Brother Hutson, but as all preachers do, I disagree with him on a doctrinal point. In part 2B of the series, Dr. Hutson teaches that fallen angels (demons) had carnal knowledge (physical intimacy) with human women, and physical giants (monstrosities) were conceived, which he says were destroyed in the Flood of Noah's day. I do not believe this teaching.
The Scriptures plainly teach in 1st Corinthians 15:39-40, “All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds. There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another.” Angels do not have reproductive organs. Why would they need them? I have never understood why Bible preachers conclude that angels had intimate relationships with humans. It is not sound doctrine in my humble opinion. The Bible is very clear that angels are not capable of having carnal knowledge with women. Matthew 22:30, “For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.” What would be the reason to give angels reproductive organs, if they are not able to use them? This one thought proves that angels did not have sex with humans.
Unfortunately, Pastor John F. MacArthur also teaches this strange doctrine...
Demonic Invasion as explained in Genesis 6 by John MacArthur
Genesis 6:4, “There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.” The Hebrew word for “giant” is nephil, which simply means, “a feller, that is, a bully or tyrant.”
A feller is a person able or disposed to inflict pain or suffering upon others. We find confirmation of this meaning of “giants” (tyrants) in the next verse—Genesis 6:5-6, “And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.” Before the Flood, before courts and capital punishment existed, tyrants roamed the earth, committing all manner of thuggery and wickedness! This is what I believe to be the correct interpretation of “giants” in the Old Testament book of Genesis.
I concede that by the wording of Genesis 6:1-4, that it does seem (taken at face value) like compelling evidence that angels did have carnal knowledge with earthly women. However, carefully notice what the Bible says in Genesis 6:2b, “they took them wives of all which they chose.” This was not forced carnal knowledge by angels. The women freely chose to marry these men! Pastor Curtis Hutson (1934-1995) made this helpful statement:
“A good rule to follow when interpreting the Bible is to never use an obscure passage to contradict a clear one.”
Genesis 6:1-4 is an obscure passage. We don't know exactly what it means. Since the passage can (and has been) interpreted various different ways, we must search the Scriptures to find its true meaning. Matthew 22:30, “For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.” Mark 12:25, “For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as the angels which are in heaven.” I think this 100% settles the matter! The angels do not marry! The Bible says in Genesis 6:2 that the son of God took to themselves “wives.”
Here is further Scriptural evidence that the fallen angels did not marry women. Matthew 24:37-39, “But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.” I believe that the phrase in Genesis 6:2b, “they took them wives of all which they chose,” simply means that they were living in gross adultery, going from one failed marriage to another, having mistresses, and living in all manner if wickedness. That is exactly what Matthew 24:37-39 teaches it was like morally before the flood. Kindly said, I think Pastor MacArthur and Dr. Curtis Hutson are very wrong in this matter, who both teach that fallen celestial angels had sex with earthly women, and conceived literal physical giants.
Genesis 4-5 describes two lines of descendants from Adam—one through Cain and the other through Seth. In the Old Testament, God’s covenant people are sometimes referred to as God’s sons. Deuteronomy 14:1, “Ye are the children of the LORD your God: ye shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead. for thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God, and the LORD hath chosen thee to be a peculiar people unto himself, above all the nations that are upon the earth.” Jeremiah 3:19, “But I said, How shall I put thee among the children, and give thee a pleasant land, a goodly heritage of the hosts of nations? and I said, Thou shalt call me, My father; and shalt not turn away from me.” This explains why God forbade the Israelites from marrying pagan Canaanite women (Exodus 34:16; Deuteronomy 7:3). So we learn that the “sons of God” not only refer to the angels, but also to God's children (as evidenced in Deuteronomy 14:1). God didn't want His children intermarrying with pagans. We know that only eight human souls entered into the ark, but that doesn't mean there were no saved people since Adam. Clearly there were many. Enoch (the man who walked with God) in Genesis 5:22 was one such child of God. Every saved person is a child of God. So the suggestion that there were no human “sons of God” prior to the flood is silly.
Furthermore, we read in Genesis 1:24, “And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.” God created man in His own image. Genesis 1:26, “And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.” Just like all of creation, humans reproduce after their own kind. That is why bestiality cannot result in conception! Likewise, angels could not have mated with humans, lest humans no longer reproduce after their own kind, in the image of God. 1st Corinthians 15:39-40 clearly teaches that celestial life is different than terrestrial (earthly) life. The idea that fallen angels mated with humans is a strange doctrine, bizarre, and falls within the realm of good science-fiction!
Dr. John MacArthur contends in the preceding video that earthly “sons of God” would not do such things (i.e., mate with humans). Pastor MacArthur uses this erroneous assertion to prove that angels mated with women. However, the Bible is filled with the sins of the saints (e.g., Judges 16:1). Who are the sons of God? Yes, the angels (Job 1:6), but also every saved person. 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:” As we see in the preceding passage of Scripture, the saints are also “the sons of God.” I believe that Christian men took to themselves unsaved wives in Genesis 6:1-4.
I think this is the only logical conclusion that we can draw, in lieu of the fact that the angels are not given in marriage, and that humans can only conceive after their own kind. If angels and humans mated, and freak giants were produced, then mankind could not have reproduced “after his own kind.” Although Goliath measured in at a staggering 9' 6" tall, he was still within the realm of human limits. Farmer Sultan Kösen was born in 1982 to a Kurd family in the southeastern Turkey city Mardin, he is the seventh tallest man in history, measuring in at 8' 2 7/8". There were no giants hundreds of feet tall in the Bible, as the fictitious book of Enoch says.
Throughout the Bible we see the bad things that followed when God's children yoked together with the Devil's children. We see this truth bared out when the Hebrews settled in the land of Canaan. Instead of killing the enemy as God has commanded, they let them live to pay taxes. Consequently, idolatry and intermarrying among God's children with the heathens resulted. God's way is always the best way! God's way is chastity and abstinence before marriage. God's way is a proper holy courtship. God's way is a legal marriage. God's way is one man and one woman in a marriage, together for life. God's way is the traditional family. The “new kind of family” being promoted by liberals, kooks and sodomites today is of the Devil. God's way is always the best and right way.
Another argument that John MacArthur makes, in support of his view that angels mated with humans, is that two angels ate a feast with Lot (Genesis 19:3). I'm getting hungry already! Yes, angels do eat. However, carefully notice that there is not even one recorded place in the Scripture, where a demon appeared in a human body. I am a solid old earth advocate. I don't think anybody can honestly study the Bible diligently and conclude a young earth. Yes, the human race is only 6,000 years old, but the earth itself is very old. What saith the Scriptures? Psalms 102:25, “Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the work of thy hands.” David penned those words around 1,000 BC. How old could the earth have been at that time? Also, notice that David specifically mentions “the foundation of the earth.” That verse speaks concerning the age of earth itself, and not human civilization. Pastor Curtis Hutson does a great job teaching an old earth view in his Wednesday night Bible study series from 1974 called: 'DEMONOLOGY.'
The serpent (Satan) was already present in the Garden of Eden. In the Genesis account of creation, no mention is made of the angels being created, nor of Lucifer's rebellion and fall from Heaven (Isaiah 14:12-15). It is logical to conclude that Lucifer and one-third of the angels in Heaven (Revelation 12:4), were cast down to the earth prior to the creation of mankind. All Biblical evidence supports the “Gap Principle” (it is not a theory). The young earth nonsense is a theory! I mean it gets insanely bizarre—the crazy things young earth advocates teach!
I couldn't stop laughing after reading a book by Henry Morris III titled: '5 Reasons To Believe In Recent Creation,' in which he bizarrely claims that Noah took baby dinosaurs aboard the ark, and God stunted their growth to keep them from growing! Ken Ham's disgraceful, decorated, cinderblock building called: 'The Ark Encounter,' is a circus in Kentucky, in which Ken even displays fire-breathing dragons aboard Noah's ark. How do these money-hungry fools dare call this Bible doctrine? They are religious conmen, whom sadly most churches embrace today. Sadly, in 2016 Pastor Clarence Sexton at the Temple Baptist Church in Powell, Tennessee, invited and honored this religious clown, letting Ken Ham speak to thousands of impressionable students at Crown College! Right doctrine matters folks.
I believe that the angels that were cast down with Lucifer, instantly became disembodiment spirits. This explains why demons never appear in their own body in the Bible. Demons always either possessed a human or an animal. When Jesus cast the demons out of the man at Gadarenes (Mark 5:1-13), the demons begged to be sent into a herd of 2,000 swine, and they immediately ran down the hill into the sea and commit hogicide. Sorry, that is a joke a heard a preacher say years ago! The pigs all drowned! That is what demons will do to people too! Many Americans today are possessed with demons, and those victims ensnared by the Devil are drowning in sin! The Devil is a beautiful liar! Watch out!
Demons in the Bible always appeared in someone else's body, whether human or beast, and never in their own physical body, as did the angels of the Lord. God's angels always appeared in their own physical body in the Bible, such as when the two angels visited Lot. This teaches us, furthermore, that demons did not mate physically with women. And even if demons did possess human men (i.e., an incubus) in Genesis 6:1-4, inspiring them to mate with women, the offspring would still be human in every sense, and not freak giants. When a demon lives inside a human body, that demon cannot in any way alter that person's body, except to cause them to do bodily harm to them self or others. Also, if demons possessed men in Genesis 6:1-4, why could they not also possess women (i.e., a succubus)? This sound logic disproves that theory as false.
I find nothing in the Holy Bible to teach that physical “giants” roamed the earth. The popular Hebrew word Nephilim simply means “a bully or tyranny.” For example: We read that of the 12 spies who went into Canaan, only Joshua and Caleb had the faith to do as God had commanded, to conquer the land! The other 10 spies had no faith:
Numbers 13:31-33, “But the men that went up with him said, We be not able to go up against the people; for they are stronger than we. And they brought up an evil report of the land which they had searched unto the children of Israel, saying, The land, through which we have gone to search it, is a land that eateth up the inhabitants thereof; and all the people that we saw in it are men of a great stature. And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.”
Carefully notice that the 10 faithless spies exaggerated how bad it was. They said “ALL” the people we saw are of great stature! They cried out that they saw giants! The three sons of Anak were punks! They were the local motorcycle gang in town, bullies. Caleb went into the Promised Land, hunted them down, and killed all three of them! Amen and amen! I totally disagree that angels mated with humans, changing their DNA, so that giants were conceived.
That is science fiction! Someone told me that some great preachers disagree with me. Well, “great” is a relative term, isn't it. I would rather be the man who obeys my great God and Savior, than to be called “a great man of God” for my preaching. Over one billion hellbound Catholics consider their ungodly Pope “a man of God.” So much for the term “man of God.” We're not supposed to compare ourselves amongst ourselves. Jesus told us in John 5:39a to “SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES.” I have given you many Scriptures on this matter. What saith the Scripture?
Someone suggested that the “sons of God” in Genesis 6:2 couldn't have meant Christians, because God did not save them from the worldwide flood. They are making an unreasonable assumption that no Christians lived and died before the flood! You need to understand dear reader that between the creation of Adam, and the flood of Noah's day, there were approximately 1,500 years. Many people got saved and died during that time period. Enoch is one such proof that Christians did exist before the flood. Enoch was a man whom the Bible says, “pleased God” (Hebrews 11:5).
I always encourage my web visitors to do their own homework, and form their own conclusions, but make sure that you have a Bible verse for all of your beliefs. Otherwise it is merely speculation, which we should always announce if we teach others. I have given you several helpful passages of Scripture, to refute the idea that fallen angels someone mated with human women. In consideration of the whole counsel of Scripture, I think it is abundantly clear that the only logical explanation is that Christian men were marrying unsaved women in Genesis 6:1-4. Their children were extremely popular with the people, being both Christian and worldly in their roots, which made them celebrities of the day. It was a time of tyrants and unimaginable evil the Bible says, which is why God decided to destroy the earth with a flood.
I admit that it is intriguing to think that demons could have had physical intimacy with human woman, but as I have shown you from the Scriptures, it contradicts the plain teachings of the Bible. Jesus said the angels are not given in marriage. There would be no purpose for angels to have genitalia, since God did not create them to reproduce. God created a certain number of angels. There are no children angels, as there are human children.
Although some people might speculate that demons possessed men to impregnate female humans, even if that were true the offspring would still be 100% human. There is simply no biblical evidence to support the idea of Nephilim.
Revelation 3:15-16, “I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.”
But then why does PCC wickedly bid Godspeed to the demonic Bob Jones University cult? Why does PCC buddy-buddy and bid Godspeed to the hellbound Harvest Baptist Church on Guam (a cesspool of BJU graduates). Pastor Jeff Redlin's name appears on Harvest's KHMG 88.1 FM radio station's webpage. Redlin is senior pastor at PCC's Campus Church. Birds of a feather flock together! BJU uses, sells and promotes the Devil's Bible perversions. BJU preaches the Devil's lie of Lordship Salvation. BJU teaches the same false understanding of Bible repentance as do all the pseudo-Christian cults! In FACT, Mormons love and fully support John MacArthur's Lordship Salvation heresy, because they are all in agreement!!! The ungodly Harvest Baptist Church on Guam is an extension of cult headquarters at BJU.
What hypocrisy! What PCC is telling the world is that they have a problem with sodomites, but hellbound damnable false prophets are okay!!!
Would PCC allow their impressionable students (entrusted to them by caring and concerned parents) play intercollegiate sports with known butt-bumping homosexuals? No way! Yet, PCC allows their students to play intercollegiate sports with butt-head Calvinists, Lordship Salvationists, Bible corrupters and those who pervert the Bible meaning of repentance. RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS!!!
I was there at Harvest Baptist Church on Guam in 2014 when their unsaved pastor Marty Herron said, quote: "It is not enough to admit you are a sinner to get to Heaven, you must also forsake a lifestyle of sinning." That is WORKS!!! That is another gospel accursed by God (Galatians 1:6-9; 1st Corinthians 15:1-4). I went home and cried after church that Sunday. I decided to be a friend and help Harvest's pastors to see, so I spent hundreds of dollars for books authored by fundamentalist Bible preachers and handed them personally to Harvest's pastors, for which I was kicked out of church and permanently banned. Woe unto Harvest and the accursed Bob Jones University cult.
The ungodly pastors at Campus Church at PCC, in response to my faithful preaching against Harvest and the BJU cult, was to falsely accuse me in 2021 of "finding weaknesses in preachers." Jeff Redlin is a monster!!! Wake up Pensacola Christian College! Wake up PCC students!!! Wake up local complicit churches in Pensacola!!! You have all been hoodwinked and deceived.
The saddest thing of all is that I haven't found even one Baptist church in all of Pensacola who doesn't kiss up to PCC, fully complicit to their harlotry with the Devil's crowd in the Bob Jones camp. By the way, I have also been permanently banned from returning to Campus Church at PCC. SHAME on these wicked people!!! The name of their game is making money, money and more money. THE LOVE OF MONEY is the root of all evil (1st Timothy 6:10-11), which is what's wrong today with 99% of Bible colleges and churches, who sinfully go along with evil and refuse to contend for the faith.
Honestly, PCC are pennywise and dollar stupid. They hurt the feelings of The King's Singers by cancelling their scheduled performance in 2023 at the college, because a student at PCC discovered that one of the singers is secretly gay; but then PCC is perfectly fine with committing spiritual whoredom with the accursed cult at Bob Jones University? What rotten hypocrites!!! What religious phonies!!! What a disgrace to the cause of Jesus Christ!!!
Listen, I am being horribly shunned, hated and ostracized by PCC, because I am faithfully crying: "WOLF!" Meanwhile, PCC are spiritually fornicating in bed with the Bob Jones cult. What is happened is: THE LOVE OF MONEY has overtaken the PCC camp (and nearly all of today's Bible colleges and churches). They need money to pay their bills. Fear of not having enough money to pay themselves is a compelling temptation to avoid making enemies by taking a stand against falsehoods, corruption and sin.
PCC has decided to set the bar very low. Since PCC refuses to suffer reproach for the name of Christ and to be put outside the gate with Jesus, and Steven Anderson and truth-tellers like me; to protect their ungodly huge egos PCC chooses instead to put down, falsely accuse, belittle and shun people like me and Pastor Anderson. PCC's impotent style of cowardly Christianity is sending America to Hell!!! We need preaching preachers, not more Christian nurses, chemists and cops!
Taking a biblical stand against doctrinal error, corruption and indifference at Harvest Baptist Church on Guam and Pensacola Christian College has cost me everything!!! Only God knows the inexplicable pain of soul that I have suffered from losing my church family after one year of making friends, falling in love and losing it all in a moment of time, simply because I TOLD THE TRUTH. When Marty Herron kicked me out of church, I went home and literally fainted, falling back and crashing onto the floor. I was in excruciating pain for over one month. That is how adversely it affected me when Pastor Herron cruelly threw me under the bus, because I befriended him with THE TRUTH. I pray to God to be avenged of these wicked ungodly devils.
Just like the Apostle Paul, they immediately counted me as their enemy (Galatians 4:16-17). In 2021, I moved and flew 9,000 miles from Guam to Pensacola. I chose to attended the biggest church in Pensacola at PCC's Campus Church, just to be horrified to find out that PCC is in bed immorally sleeping with the heretical dogs at Harvest Baptist Church on Guam. I was sickened. No doubt Harvest's haughty pastors think it all humorous, but they will reap tears of horror and bitter regret, as they realize it is too late, and they are the hellbound self-righteous Pharisees in Matthew 7:21-23. They will cry out, “Lord, Lord,” but Jesus will deny knowing them as His sheep. Lordship Salvation is a perversion of the Gospel (an excellent writing by Dr. Curtis Hutson, 1934-1995).
Somebody's got to care!!! I care. Do you care? PCC doesn't care. What right does PCC's leaders (gods unto themselves) have to decide where to draw the line of ecclesiastical separation? The Bible is clear in 1st Corinthians 15:1-4 what "the Gospel" is. Nothing is mentioned about living a lifestyle of forsaking sinful bad habits. Nothing is said about surrendering "all" to Christ. Nothing is said about "turning away from past sinful ways" to be saved. Nothing is said about "being willing to turn from sin" to be saved. You simply need to BELIEVE that Jesus died on a cross for your sins, was buried and bodily resurrected three days later from the dead, to be saved.
I have been faithfully exposing Dr. John MacArthur's damnable false gospel. As I have shown you, MacArthur's Lordship Salvation heresy is required reading at the Mormon's Brigham Young University (Bring 'Em Young) for all students. That speaks volumes as to the deadly perversion of John MacArthur's counterfeit plan of salvation. I ask everyone to please use social media to help me expose Pensacola Christian College's wicked support of John MacArthur, Bob Jones University cult, and the ungodly Harvest Baptist Church on Guam.
PCC leaders have no shame! They are haughty, cocky, snobbish and arrogant, belittling anyone who dares to call them out (as I have done) for sinfully bidding Godspeed to false teachers, and in so doing making themselves partakers of their evil deeds (2nd John 1:11). RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS!!!
