Revelation 3:1-3, “And unto the angel of the church in Sardis write; These things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead. Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God. Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.”
I regrettably wish that I would have had a like-minded wife by my side all these years, who shared my passion for making websites, blogs and social media to preach the Gospel to get lost sinners saved. Sadly, I have been alone every step of the way, except for the partner that matters most, my blessed God and Savior, Jesus (Hebrews 13:5). I have gone it alone, just me and God, but also did Jeremiah the prophet in the Old Testament. Jeremiah didn't have a wife either. And neither did the Apostle Paul. I once heard Pastor Jack Hyles say that Paul was likely divorced, since Paul said he had been “loosed” from a wife (1st Corinthians 7:27). That has always encouraged me, since I was also loosed from my wife in 2006 when she cruelly abandoned and divorced me. That was the greatest pain that I have ever known. Thankfully, time does heal all wounds. The wounds never go away, but the intensity of the inexplicable pain and emotional trauma dissipates over time, especially if you are laying up treasures in Heaven. The best way to overcome evil is by doing good the Bible says in Romans 12:21. Romans 12:21, “Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.”
Having said all that, I truly am The Lone Ranger as a Bible preacher. I am alone without a wife. I am alone in my zeal to contend for the Christian faith. I am alone in my zeal to expose the Devil's modern Bibles revisions, expose the Devil's lie of Lordship Salvation, and to expose the Devil's lie of “turn from your past sinful ways” to be saved. Damnable heresy has crept into 95% of churches today, and that tragically includes so-called independent Baptist churches. It is unthinkable. The Devil is so clever and knows exactly how to jam his foot into the door, so that in a short amount of time he takes over. If you give the Devil an inch, he'll take a foot and become a ruler! Satan is a beautiful liar.
Beware Of False Prophet Ken Ham
One of the biggest theological liars today is Evangelist Ken Ham, founder of the ministry Answers In Genesis. Solely because of the world's interest in the subject of creation, Ken Ham takes in approximately $35,000,000 each year. That is the equivalent of the annual income of 222 average churches!!! Sadly, Ken Ham and his ministry team preach the Satanic lie that faith is not sufficient to get to Heaven, they say you must also turn away from your sinful ways to be saved. The big problem with that is the Bible doesn't teach it! In the following video clip you can hear the heresy from Answers In Genesis yourself...
The FALSE GOSPEL of 'ANSWERS IN GENESIS' and KEN HAM
One of my favorite Christian authors is Michael P. Bowen. In his tremendous helpful book titled: “I NEVER KNEW YOU: THE HORROR OF THE GREAT WHITE THRONE JUDGMENT AND HOW YOU CAN AVOID IT,” he says these words to refute Pastor Beth Moore's false plan of salvation...
While I appreciate what Beth Moore has done for so many people, and I am behind her all the way in continuing to help as many people as she possibly can through both bible and popular psychological concepts that provide real encouragement and healing in these desperate, uncertain times, Moore’s plan of salvation will not save anyone because the addition of “turning from sins” to singular, simple faith in Christ is not the plan of salvation according to the bible. Look at this: “And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses” (Acts 13:39). Here, God is speaking through Paul. Paul did not write the book of Acts, rather, God wrote Acts “through” Paul. God is literally telling us that we are made righteous through faith alone in what Christ did for us by His death and subsequent resurrection from the dead, and that deeds of the law, such as “turning from sins” will not justify us. Neither will any combination of partial faith in Christ coupled with partial faith in turning from your sins save you.
By implication, “believing on Christ” always refers to the fact of what He did for us at Calvary. The gospel message is the same throughout all of scripture. Those in the Old Testament looked “forward” to what Christ would do for them, and everyone from the time of Christ’s resurrection to this very day look “backward” to what Christ accomplished for us by His finished work at Calvary. The gospel message of Jesus Christ, i.e., the “plan of salvation according to Jesus Christ,” is always the same and it never changes. This message is: 1) we cannot save ourselves, 2) Jesus died for our sins, 3) His dead body was buried, and 4) Jesus arose from the dead three days later. “He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.
SOURCE: 'I Never Knew You,' Michael P. Bowen, Chapter 3, pp. 83-84
The author is absolutely correct, God is telling us that we are made righteous through FAITH ALONE in what Jesus has already DONE for us by His death and subsequent resurrection from the dead; and that deeds (WORKS) of the law (such as “turning away from sins” or “living a lifestyle of repentance” will not justify us. Neither will any combination of partial faith in Christ coupled with partial faith in turning from your sins save you.
Please don't miss that last statement... Neither will any combination of partial faith in Christ coupled with partial faith in turning from your sins save you!!!
Beware Of Pensacola Christian College Cult
I've said all of this as introduction so that you will understand why Pensacola Christian College (PCC) is so dangerous to send your young people to as parents. And I could just as easily say the same thing about Crown College in Powell, Tennessee, because these ungodly institutions and their associated churches wickedly promote, invite to speak, and bid Godspeed to infidel Ken Ham. RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS folks! It really does. I have made thousands of enemies among the camps at Bob Jones University (BJU), Crown College, Pensacola Christian College and others spiritually rotten institutions today who refuse to contend for the faith once delivered unto the saints.
The big problem with BJU, PCC and these other horrible religious institutions today is that they DON'T CONTEND FOR THE FAITH. Instead, THE LOVE OF MONEY has changed them! Ken Ham even lists PCC as one of over a dozen rotten religious colleges THAT HE RECOMMENDS because they promote him!!! PCC shamefully promote Ken Ham and his counterfeit plan of salvation. By extension that makes PCC and their Campus Church partakers of Ken Ham damnable false gospel. 2nd John 1:11, “For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.”
A fundamentalist is NOT a Christian who adheres to the fundamentals of the Christian faith. A fundamentalist is a Christian who SEPARATES from those professed Christians who no longer adhere to the fundamentals of the faith. Pensacola Christian College (PCC) do not contend for the faith. They go along with doctrinal error and sanction damnable false prophets like Ken Ham, and in so doing have brought God's wrath, disgust and judgment upon themselves. PCC's leaders (including Jeff Redlin and Tim Zacharias, shameful pastors of Campus Church) have much blood on their hands. RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS!
If Ken Ham is really saved, then so are Church of Christ, who require water baptism to get to Heaven. And then so also must be Seventh-Day Adventists, who require that you keep the Sabbath Day to get to Heaven. Where do you draw the line? How much “extra” can you add to God's simple plan of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ to get to Heaven. The Bible gives us the answer in Romans 3:20, “Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.”
If you read Matthew 7:21-23, a famous passage of Scripture, you will read a group of false prophets arguing with Christ. They died in their sins without Jesus as their Savior. But they argued with Christ, boasting of their “many wonderful works” and calling Jesus “Lord, Lord.” But Jesus denied knowing them, and the angels cast them into the fires of Hell forever (Revelation 20:11-15). God's will according to John 6:40 is that you BELIEVE ON JESUS, period; not believe on Jesus, plus something else. When anyone tells you that faith is not enough to get to Heaven, but that you must also give up your past life of sin and surrender to follow Jesus as “Lord” of your life, they have been inspired by demons.
I went to the Pensacola Interstate Fair in October for two nights. Both nights I stopped by the Pensacola Christian College booth at the fair, right next to the Jehovah's Witness booth. These two heretical groups go good together! At the PCC booth I spoke with Josh and some other nerd, who was an unfriendly fella. Josh seemed okay at first, but then when I asked him if they were preached Lordship Salvation, he said yes they were. Josh quotes Acts 16:31b, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.” He insisted that since the word “Lord” appears in this verse that we must accept Jesus as our Lord to get to Heaven. I like something that Pastor Curtis Hutson said: “A good rule to follow when interpreting the Bible is to never use an obscure passage to contradict a clear one.” Amen! That is some helpful advice for all Bible students, and I use that principle all the time.
In 1st Corinthians 15:1-4, God speaking through the Apostle Paul defines “THE GOSPEL” for us as three things:
- Jesus DIED on the cross for our sins according to the Scriptures.
- Jesus was BURIED.
- Jesus bodily RESURRECTED from the dead three days later.
We don't read anything in this passage about accepting Jesus as one's “Lord” to be saved. What exactly is Lordship Salvation? Pastor Ralph Yankee Arnold gives this helpful definition:
“Lordship Salvation is the unsupportable and unbiblical belief that the performance of good works, the promise of good works, or the evidence of good works, must accompany faith in Christ to establish or provide evidence that such faith has resulted in eternal life.” —Pastor Ralph Yankee Arnold, "Jesus versus John MacArthur"
What saith the Scripture? ...
Romans 4:4-7, “Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt. But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works, Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.”
God literally doesn't want you to do anything to get to Heaven, except completely rest in the finished redemptive work of His dear only begotten Son. You read right friend! God DOESN'T want you to give up even one sin in your life to get to Heaven. And if you try, you ain't going my friend. Any attempt to earn, merit or favor God's grace and you don't get grace!!! You had better just come to God as you are—as a dirty, stinking, guilty, rotten, needy sinner (just like me and everybody else in humanity). Yes, dear reader, God only saves BAD PEOPLE!!!
Faith is the only righteous thing that I can do. Lordship Salvation is of the Devil. The “turn from your sins” to be saved heresy is of the Devil. This wicked garbage theology is deadly today, which has subtly crept into BJU and PCC (to name but a few cesspools of iniquity). Here is an exact quote from PCC's Foundation's Class at their Campus Church: “Repentance is a change which results in a change of behavior.” No, that is so WRONG! Repentance is a change of mind which results in BELIEVING THE GOSPEL!!!
A changed life is the fruit of the indwelling Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:21-25), which is a believer's sanctification (growth in grace); an entirely separate matter from the new birth. Choosing to pick up your cross to follow Christ as Lord of your life is a second decision that God wants every believer to make. Your first wise choice was to receive Jesus Christ as your personal Savior (John 1:12-13).
Now that you are saved and secure in the saving grace of God (Romans 6:1), you must decide if you are going to obey God further as His child. Many believers choose not to obey the Lord, choosing rather to live in continued open sin. That is why we read in 2nd Timothy 2:19, “Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.” Now, if it were impossible to be saved without first “turning away from your sinful ways,” then this Bible verse would make no sense at all. I mean, we keep hearing corrupt pastors telling us to “turn away from our sins” to be saved. If that were true, then why is the Apostle Paul exhorting us here to DEPART FROM INIQUITY as God's children?
Clearly it is possible be get saved by faith alone in Christ, and then choose to continue living in willful open sin (e.g. shaking up in fornication, having an abortion, getting drunk, et cetera). This Bible passage proves that you DON'T have to turn away from your sins to get to Heaven. Beware of Pensacola Christian College and their damnable heresy which says your behavior must change to prove you are really saved. PCC also wickedly bids Godspeed to the Bob Jones University cult, which includes the cult at the Harvest Baptist Church on Guam (mostly BJU alumni). They are all yuppie types in the PCC and BJU camps, full of arrogance toward truth-tellers like me who befriended them with THE TRUTH of a free grace Gospel.
Something that I learn about neo-evangelicals a very long time ago is that they don't split hairs over doctrinal matters. That is, they don't stand for anything! PCC is spiritual dead today, and has been since they opened their doors in 1974. PCC refuses to expose the Devil's Bible perversions! PCC refuses to “REBUKE THEM SHARPLY” (as Titus 1:9-14 commands) in the accursed BJU camp for promoting Devil's Bible revisions, preaching the Devil's Calvinism and propagating the Devil's misunderstanding of repentance. PCC couldn't care less! When I attended PCC's rotten Campus Church, it was shallow and lacking Holy Spirit presence and power.
As of August 2, 2022, Pastor Redlin said in writing that I cannot attend Campus Church. It didn't matter that I apologized for offending them, they still chose to hold a grudge, which proves how distant from God they all are. I also mailed a lengthy letter to PCC leadership, to make sure they got involved in this matter. They didn't even have the decency to reply. God's judgment is upon the ungodly PCC camp. They are rotted too big for their britches!
There is a cocky spirit of hubris that permeates PCC leadership, to where they refuse to heed rebuke, warning or wisdom from anyone except themselves. They are a sinking ship spiritually at PCC and they don't even realize it. Jesus said that the church at Laodice was naked, wretched, miserable and blind; but they were utterly deceived the Lord said, instead thinking that they were prospering and doing good in the world.
That is PCC and Campus Church today. They are as a swollen dead rotting corpse spiritually, miserable and naked, wretched in their shallow and lukewarm spiritual condition; but worst of all, they are hateful and unforgiving toward people like me who dared to question and challenge them. I was only trying to help them, but you cannot speak wisdom into the ears of a fool the Bible says in Proverbs. PCC leadership are darn fools!!!
Regrettably, I will keep preaching against the PCC cult. I wanted to make peace with them in 2022, but they cold-heartedly refused for the aforementioned reasons. The sad truth is that PCC is so big that they think they are too big to fail. But God is the one who decides who is a success or a failure. I will continue to expose the cult at PCC for wickedly bidding Godspeed to the accursed Calvinist Bob Jones University cult. I will continue to expose the cult at PCC for wickedly bidding Godspeed to the Devil's helper Ken Ham, and his counterfeit plan of salvation. I will continue to expose the cult at PCC for wickedly not contending for the Christian faith as they ought. I was told by a 43 year old man (who has worked for PCC on staff for the past 23 years) that PCC hates Pastor Steven L. Anderson. Pastor Anderson tells us exactly why Pensacola Christian College hates him so much...
“I believe that the reason why I'm being banned and censored is that the truth is powerful. And wicked people are afraid of the truth, because it just takes one beam of light to cut through the darkness that's been created in these areas. The truth is so powerful, it can in just one fell swoop overturn decades of brainwashing. ...if the truth is heard, it will bear fruit. God's Word is not going to return void.” —Pastor Steven L. Anderson
That is why the BJU and PCC camps hate, despise, criticize, shun, ostracize and reject me as well—because I TOLD THE TRUTH and it harelipped every one of them in leadership!!! I was wickedly banned from attending the Harvest Baptist Church on Guam for the 7 years I begged them to allow me to please attend their church. In hindsight, I believe God was protecting me from a dangerous neo-evangelical cult. Pastors' Marty Herron and Gary Walton are their accursed cult leaders. The Lord wants me to continue to expose them as evildoers for promoting corruptible seed (i.e., Devil's bibles), and for preaching another gospel (aka, Lordship Salvation), and for perverting the Bible meaning of “repentance” (which is a simple change of mind toward God concerning the truth - Acts 20:21; 2nd Timothy 2:25).
It breaks my heart continually that I am the bad guy, the reject, the hated preacher, the man that few churches want attending their church. I have been banned in writing from attending the Harvest Baptist Church on Guam, and Campus Church at PCC. I have been banned for TELLING THE TRUTH. PCC doesn't contend for the faith. They refuse to get their hands dirty for the Lord. They refuse to rebuke false prophets sharply, as the Bible commands in Titus 1:9-14. Instead, PCC bids false prophets Godspeed, which makes them partakers of their evil deeds. I have shown you Ken Ham's false plan of salvation. Here is Dr. Steve Pettit's Calvinist false plan of salvation. Steve Pettit has been the incompetent president of Bob Jones University (BJU) since 2014.
Fundamentalism is dying in America! I am first and foremost a born-again Christian. But as a Christian I choose to be an independent fundamental Baptist, so people can know what my distinctives are that I believe. Fundamental Baptists come closest to what the Bible teaches than anyone else, both in doctrine and moral standards. I do not know of even one neo-evangelical church that discourages their females from wearing slacks and pants. It is shameful how most females dress in today's Baptist churches and Bible colleges. Although not technically “Baptist” by name, PCC is considered a Baptist college.
Most of their students at PCC come from shallow Baptist circles. I wouldn't enroll my dog at PCC. Parents, you can do so much better! Please do not send your impressionable child to PCC's cult, unless you want them to graduate (if they don't get expelled first for anything and everything), with a snobbish bad attitude and as shallow as can be in their spiritual growth. At PCC the system comes first, but individual people do not matter. PCC's graduates know how to play church real well, but they don't have the courage to stand against evil. They don't contend for the faith. PCC just wants to make money, so fighting against false doctrine and immorality are not on their priority list.
I do not know of even one neo-evangelical church that sings only the old hymns. Instead, they all sing the world's new Contemporary Christian Music (CCM), that is intended to stir people's emotions without edifying their soul with doctrinal lyrics. I love the old hymns; such as: “What can wash away my sin? Nothing but the blood of Jesus.” Today's neo-evangelical music is so wishy-washy, lacking in meaning and Holy Spirit conviction that it is really worthless. PCC now sing a blend of old hymns and CCM music, drifting slowly into full neo-evangelicalism. PCC is NOT fundamentalist and never has been since 1974.
The bottom line is that PCC and Campus Church are wickedly promoting the Calvinists at BJU. They are promoting Ken Ham and his damnable counterfeit plan of salvation, not to mention the fallacy of a Young Earth Creation (YEC). The Bible plainly teaches an Old Earth if you study the Hebrew in Genesis chapter one. Pastor Curtis Hutson (1934-1995) plainly believed and taught an Old Earth and so do I. Ken Ham is not only a cult leader regarding salvation, but he is part of a YEC circus that perpetuates a hurtful fallacy.
Dear reader, kindly said, if you believe that dinosaurs lived with humanity 5,000 years ago, you are just as gullible as those today who think that the earth is flat. Please tell me you are not that ignorant and foolish. God gave us intelligence and a thinking brain. Common sense tells us that dinosaurs did not live with mankind, because the Bible, secular human history, science, paleontology and archaeology all agree with an earth that is billions of years old. The human race has only been here for approximately 6,000 years, as the historical records prove. The earliest organized civilization (a world power) was Egypt, which existed about 3,500 years ago. There are no human records prior to that, because of the flood of Noah's time which destroyed everything (Wikipedia gives the year of Noah's flood). Most theologians agree that the flood occurred in the year 2348 BC.
Shame on PCC for promoting con man Ken Ham. The deadly consequence of promoting someone like Ken Ham and Steve Pettit who preach a corrupt plan of salvation is that like cancer, heresy spreads. Every institution gets corrupted in three stages:
- They stop exposing heresy and falsehoods
- They begin to embrace those who preach heresy and falsehoods
- They teach heresy and falsehoods themselves
Pensacola Christian College is now at stage three! Their official doctrinal position in 2022 is that repentance is a change of mind which results in a change of behavior. That is an exact quote from their Foundation's Class at PCC's Campus Church. In sharp contrast, my friend Pastor Ralph Yankee Arnold gets it 100% correct...
“Lordship Salvation is the unsupportable and unbiblical belief that the performance of good works, the promise of good works, or the evidence of good works, must accompany faith in Christ to establish or provide evidence that such faith has resulted in eternal life.” —Pastor Ralph Yankee Arnold, "Jesus versus John MacArthur"
PCC is a cult that errantly teaches that if your behavior hasn't changed, you are not saved. How did PCC get corrupted? It is because they refuse to expose evil (Ephesians 5:11). It is because they refuse to rebuke false prophets sharply (Titus 1:9-14). It is because PCC refuses to contend for the faith (Jude 1:3). SHAME on Pensacola Christian College!!! Dear friend, regardless of what you may think of this preacher and author, RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS!!! God knows my heart. My only heart's desire is to expose false teachers, falsehoods, evil and heresies to help people see THE TRUTH.
By God's grace, I haven't been paid a single penny since 2002 when I started my internet ministry. My ministry is a labor of love for Jesus, people and truth. I don't know the exact amount of hours I have labored on my ministry over the past 20 years, but I'd guess it is well over 50,000 hours. On average I work between 40 to 60 hours a week on my website ministry, and for many years I worked 70 to 80 hours a week. I walk with God during that time, and simply share the truths that I learn. To God be alone be ALL the glory, praise and credit. I am just a servant. I am the clay, God is the Potter. If anyone has ever been helped through my humble labors, it is only because of the blessed Holy Spirit working through me to help others. Thank you for reading my blog.
