The Constant Tension Between Truth And Cooperation

Jude 1:3, “Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.”

There is constant tension between a believer's duty and biblical obligation to stand for THE TRUTH, and our human desire to cooperate with others and get along. I don't like tension and conflict. I like to get along with everybody. Unfortunately, Satan uses that human tendency to infiltrate and corrupt churches. I've seen this my entire life, and it is a big problem today.

We are exhorted in Jude 1:3 to EARNESTLY CONTENT FOR THE FAITH, which means taking a strong stand against all heresies creeping into the church. It means speaking up for God when we see the Devil trying to sneak into the local church. Sadly, most professed Christians today (especially pastors and Bible colleges) prioritize making money and cooperating with their peers, over contending for sound Bible doctrine. This is why the Devil's lie of Calvinism (aka, Lordship Salvation) has so easily crept into thousands of Baptist churches, corrupting them. Preachers have failed to stand for THE TRUTH. They have failed to nip heresy in the bud, which has consequently allowed Satan to destroy local churches by perverting the Gospel.

The effort to promote better cooperation between religious groups is called “ecumenism,” and it is totally unbiblical. The reason why Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001) is one of the most hated preachers in America is because he stood for two main things: SOULWINNING and SEPERATION. Ecumenism is the opposite of ecclesiastical separation. Worldliness is the opposite of personal separation as a believer. The Bob Jones University crowd have dipped their sails drastically in recent decades, now permitting female students to wear pants, halter tops and tights in gym. BJU is no different than the unsaved world in their dress standards. BJU does NOT care about soulwinning or separation, by all indications they only care about is preparing young people for money-making careers. BJU is a curse upon America in 2021!

On their website Bob Jones University has a long list of all the religious institutions, Bible colleges and churches where their graduates have been hired. That is exactly why SOULWINNING no longer exists in these places, because of the demonic toxic deeper-life, Neo-evangelical, apostasy of BJU. Please don't hire anyone from Bob Jones, unless you want to see your church spiritually die too! Lordship Salvation is NOT the free grace Gospel, but that is all BJU preaches today, bidding Godspeed to Pastor John MacArthur (the modern godfather of Calvinism and Lordship Salvation, an accursed false prophet).

I wrote this article simply to enlighten you dear reader why there is so much tension in today's churches, to explain why I am constantly preaching against Bob Jones University and the cult of Harvest Baptist Church on Guam. These institutions are apostate! In Matthew 7:21-23, those religious folks were committed to Christ, they boasted of their MANY WONDERFUL WORKS, they boasted that the preached in Jesus' name, they even called Him “Lord, Lord.” But the Bible says Jesus did not know them as His sheep. Jesus denied them! Christ Himself will someday say to the Lordship Salvation crowd, as they weep and attempt to defend themselves, saying “Did we not serve you Jesus, calling you 'LORD',” but Jesus will say the most frightening words anyone could ever hear: “DEPART FROM ME YE THAT WORK INIQUITY: I NEVER KNEW YOU” (Matthew 7:21-23; Luke 13:23-24; Matthew 7:13-15; 2nd Corinthians 11:13-15; Titus 1:10-13; Jude 1:3; Galatians 1:6-9).

The reason why there is so much tension today between the churches, is simply because Satan is the enemy of God, and evil is always trying to destroy good. Most so-called “churches” are cults, and most professed “Christians” have never been born-again, and are not true believers (Matthew 7:21-23; Matthew 6:7-8; Matthew 15:8; 1st Peter 1:23). I have been horribly made the bad guy, the villain, counted as an “enemy” like the Apostle Paul (Galatians 4:16), by the shameful Harvest Baptist Church on Guam, told to (verbatim) “Go elsewhere” by their wicked Bob Jones graduate pastors, but I have had nowhere to go since 2014, staying home on Sundays. My blood is on their hands! My blood is on Marty Herron's hands. God will judge between me and them (Galatians 6:7).

Dear reader, the Bible teaches that we need false prophets. I was happy when I found this Scripture passage in 1st Corinthians 11:19, “For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you.” We need damnable false teachers like Steve Pettit, Marty Herron, Charles Phelps, Sam Horn, John MacArthur, Adrian Rogers, Gary Walton and Ray Comfort, so that TRUTH-TELLERS like me who preach Bible sound doctrine can be made manifest to all. It is not a matter of opinion friend, it is a matter of what the inspired King James Bible says (Romans 3:4). You cannot show me any of the garbage being taught today by the Wrong Repentance and Lordship Salvation crowd, from the inspired Word of God (Mark 7:9).
