Ungodly Corrupt Authoritarian Neo-Fundamentalist Churches And Bible Colleges

2nd Corinthians 11:6, “But though I be rude in speech, yet not in knowledge; but we have been throughly made manifest among you in all things.”

Okay, dear reader, let me define some terms so we'll all be on the same page. The prefix “neo” simply means “new.” These are your modernized churches. Most churches today are neo-evangelical. For example: Hillsong's chain of about 100 campuses worldwide, Pastor Joel Osteen's Lakewood Church in Texas, Family Baptist Church in Pensacola, and First Baptist Church of Pensacola. All 47,000 Southern Baptist Convention churches are neo-evangelicals. Liberty University in Virginia, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Kentucky, and Moody Bible Institute in Chicago are all neo-evangelicals institutions. These neo-evangelical churches and colleges set low moral standards. All of their females wear pants. They sing Contemporary Christian Music (CCM). They are all wrong on God's simple plan of salvation.

Then there are truly independent fundamentalist churches. Examples of this are Pastor Steven Anderson's Faithful Word Baptist Church in Arizona, and Pastor Jeff Fugate's Clays Mill Baptist Church and their Commonwealth Baptist College in Kentucky. I love these biblical New Testament patterned, confrontational soulwinning, inspired King James Bible only, sin fighting, Christ-honoring, free grace Gospel only, churches! These churches and colleges are all correct on God's simple plan of salvation. They all believe that the King James Bible is inspired and without error. Their moral standards are kept high. Women wear dresses, skirts, culottes and other modest clothing; but never pants!

And then there are former fundamentalist churches and Bible colleges decades ago, that have transitioned (and are transitioning still today) into ungodly neo-evangelical cults. These are neo-fundamentalist organizations. Such corrupt churches include Campus Church at Pensacola Christian College, Smyrna Baptist Church in Pensacola, Harvest Baptist Church on Guam (all Bob Jones alumni), First Baptist Church of Hammond (and their Hyles-Anderson College) and Bob Jones University. In most of these places you'll find a mix of the old hymns and CCM. They all deny the inspiration of the King James Bible. You'll find damnable false doctrines such as “repent of your sins” to get to Heaven in many of these churches and colleges. I found four different conflicting plans of salvation at PCC. They are following the herd, changing for the worst. I keep getting burned by this crowd, thinking that I am attending a good church, just to find out that they are WRONG on repentance, and they are following the Satanic new-evangelical mess.

If You're Not Angry, You're Not Paying Attention or Don't Care

There has been an ongoing spiritual war for centuries over the Bible meaning of repentance. Because of this reality many preachers have shameful avoided the topic altogether, refusing to contend for the faith because they don't see the significance. Well, I do dear reader. There is nothing in this universe any more important than God's simple plan of salvation. RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS. 2nd Corinthians 11:6, “But though I be rude in speech, yet not in knowledge; but we have been throughly made manifest among you in all things.”

I have often said that the hallmark character trait of a Christian who is right with God is that THEY CARE! You show me a believer who doesn't care and I know they do not walk closely with God. Acts 4:13, “Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.” You won't find a more bold preacher than myself, or sincere to tell THE TRUTH. In fact, at times I can be highly offensive in my rants and hard biblical preaching.

By God's grace, I have single-handedly taken a strong, unapologetic, uncompromising, BIBLICAL STAND against the ungodly Bob Jones University (BJU) and Pensacola Christian College (PCC) camps, which today have deteriorated into dangerous religious cults.

Ephesians 6:10-13, “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.”

By God's grace I am standing. I am hated by their pastors and wives. I have been kicked out and banned from a half dozen of their churches. I may get sued. I may get martyred. That's okay, I won't back down! I won't be intimidated by wicked religious thugs. They have wrongfully slandered me. To their shame, I've been shunned, ostracized, mocked, avoided, mistreated, ignored and abused by these wicked neo-fundamentalists.

I Was Persecuted at Campus Church and PCC

Since I have moved from the island of Guam to the city of Pensacola in July of 2021, there has been a conspiracy to shun me from behind the scenes because of my fundamentalist website ministry, and because of my courageous David and Goliath fight against the Goliath PCC. When I attended Campus Church in 2021, their senior pastor Jeff Redlin shunned me. He told me that he and their other pastors looked through my ministry websites. I never told any of them about my ministry, but they claimed someone was “trying to contact the i-pad preacher.” Pastor Redlin said that since they didn't know how to contact me that they had no choice but to look through my websites. Jeff said he and the other pastors saw that I “find weaknesses in preachers,” for which they criticized my ministry.

Well, first of all, Pastor Redlin lied. I emailed him the very next day after I attended their 4th of July picnic at PCC in 2021, so he had my email to contact me. Furthermore, I find WICKEDNESS in preachers, not their weaknesses. For Pastor Marty Herron at the Harvest Baptist Church on Guam to preach hard core Lordship Salvation and bid Godspeed to infidel Dr. John MacArthur is not a mere weakness, it is utter deliberate wickedness!!! It doesn't surprise me hearing such incompetent foolishness from Jeff Redlin in lieu of the sad fact that none of them at PCC contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints (Jude 1:3).

Associate Pastor Timothy Zacharias at PCC's Campus Church, Jeff Redlin's incompetent side kick 'Boy Wonder,' is wrong on Bible repentance. I sat in the auditorium of Campus Church on July 21st, 2021. They were showing a Ken Ham series every Wednesday evening throughout the summer. Just so you know, Ken Ham of Answers-In-Genesis is a damnable FALSE PROPHET. See and hear for yourself what Ken Ham preaches! In December of 2022, PCC invited and honored Ken Ham, allowing him to speak to their thousands of students (victims). Ken Ham's plan of salvation DOESN'T match Jesus' plan of salvation (John 6:28-29). Nowhere does the inspired King James Bible teach that to get to Heaven you must “turn from your wicked ways.” NOBODY can get to Heaven by doing “works” (Isaiah 64:6; Romans 3:19-20, 4:1-7; Ephesians 2:8-9; Titus 3:5). Answers-In-Genesis is of the Devil!

As I sat there at Campus Church on July 21st, 2021, I almost fell out of my chair when Pastor Zacharias told thousands of people present that to be saved you must turn from your sins and live a changed life. He said that “repentance is a change of mind resulting in a change of behavior.” This is PCC's official position in their Foundations Class at Campus Church. I felt like vomiting. I was angry and concerned. The next morning I emailed Dr. Jeff Redlin to find out where he stood. To no surprise he fully supported Pastor Zacharias' damnable heresy. These religious clowns have no business being pastors or standing behind any pulpit. I say that kindly but truthfully.

Long story short, Pastor Redlin sent me a cruel email on August 2, 2022 permanently banning me from attending Campus Church. They persecuted me! I wrote two letters to PCC in a sincere attempt to reconcile, but in their arrogant pride they completely ignored me. We have been enemies since because of their cruel behavior. They are upset with me for calling them out on their WRONG teaching that repentance for salvation results in a change of behavior. THE TRUTH MATTERS!!! If Dr. Redlin were right with God as a church pastor, then he would have lovingly welcomed me to attend Campus Church, regardless of my ministry's preaching. Pastor Jack Hyles said it best, practically giving their address at PCC...

“The pastors have destroyed the churches, and they've been trained by people that have never built churches, and they have no compassion.” —Pastor Jack Hyles, “Many Pastors Have Destroyed My Vineyard”

Amen and amen and amen! They are educators at BJU and PCC, so they woefully lack compassion for hurting sinners, and that woeful lack of compassion shows in their incompetent and impotent pastoral graduates. Marty Herron is a graduate of BJU, which speaks volumes! Just in case you think I bumped my head or am having a bad day, take a look at the Satanic Calvinist garbage that their long time president Steve Pettit taught to several thousand students at BJU from 2014 to 2022. That is NOT the Gospel, not even close!!!

I Was Persecuted at Harvest Baptist Church on Guam

In 2014, after attending the Harvest Baptist Church for almost a year, I was called into the church office by Associate Pastor Joe Hensen (while Mary Herron sat in the dark in a back room). I was falsely accused of “causing confusion and divisiveness” in their church by sharing sermons and books by fundamentalist preachers with my friends at church. When I kindly asked Pastor Henson what was so bad about me sharing sermons by Pastor Jack Hyles with others, he literally shirked his shoulders that he didn't know. That was weird.

That's when I figured out that his boss, Pastor Herron, made him scold me. Pastor Joe was just doing his job! I asked him if Pastor Herron was sitting in the dark in the back room and he got this big smile on his face and motioned with his eyes toward the back room to let me know that I was right, Marty was back there (the coward). I let them both have it for over an hour! I told them that they have a Christian school with a church on the side. I told them that I wasn't the one causing confusion, they were already a house divided on many levels.

In that meeting, Joe Hensen admitted to me that on any given Sunday you'd find at least two dozen different Bible versions circulating in their pews. I told them how shameful their church is! When I left he wanted to pray with me, but I refused. I told them both that I was going home to pray for them to get right with God. Joe Hensen called me and Pastor Jack Hyles “a cult” for our belief that the King James Bible is inspired by God and the only reliable Bible today in the English language. Even a young child can clearly see that something is very wrong with all of the modern Westcott and Hort Bible versions (that includes all of them). I left the church that evening in tears. Pastor Herron later wickedly sent me an email banning me from attending Harvest Baptist Church. Hell is coming up to meet that ungodly false prophet!

Damnable Heresy at Pensacola Christian College

I am not the bad guy dear reader for TELLING THE TRUTH. If a free grace Gospel without works is correct, then I am right. Anyone who tells you that God will not save you unless you are first “willing to turn from your sin” is a damnable false teacher! That includes false prophet Jack Chick (1924-2016) and his toxic Chick Tracts! I am unjustly HATED by the PCC family and every ungodly corrupt church associated with them in Pensacola.

When I attended Smyrna Baptist Church in 2024, they shunned me. Pastor Bill Adams never once came over to talk with me in the 8 months that I attended their church. I even went to their Easter Sunrise Service at Bayview Park at 6 am. I attended their Memorial Day church picnic outdoors. Pastor Adams never bothered to welcome me. Then they showed a religious movie indoors. When I went inside and kindly asked Bill Adam's wife in the kitchen for some water, because I explained I was dehydrated because of my pain medications, she rudely and insensitively snapped at me, saying: “Why didn't you get something to drink outside?” You don't talk to a 55 year old man that way! She has an attitude problem!

It wasn't until after 4 months of attending their church that the Youth Director finally came over to greet me. Jared is the only one I have some remote respect for; the others are clowns. Smyrna Baptist Church is wrong on the Gospel. They teach that you cannot be saved unless you are willing to turn from your sins. The pastor's daughter goes to PCC. As far as I am concerned she is a victim! Read for yourself what PCC horribly teaches...

“REPENTANCE — Now is the time to turn from your sin and embrace God. The act of turning away from sin is called 'repentance.' This word implies an inward decision to follow and obey God's will instead of your self-serving sins. It means changing your mind about sin and seeing it as something that grieves God. The Bible says that God patiently waits for all people to make this decision.” [emphasis added] SOURCE: “John & Romans,” Campus Church at Pensacola Christian College, p. 60

“I repent of my sins. I realize that sin is something that God hates and I no longer want to hold onto sinful bad habits.” [emphasis added] SOURCE: “John & Romans,” Campus Church at Pensacola Christian College, p. 62

Does anyone think I have been barking up an empty tree? Folks, this is NOT part of the Gospel which the Apostle Paul preached in 1st Corinthians 15:1-6. ...

1st Corinthians15:1-4, “Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.”

I didn't see anything in the Apostle Paul's definition of 'THE GOSPEL' that includes turning away from your sinful bad habits, and to make a decision to follow and obey God's will instead of your self serving sins, DID YOU? For preaching these truths my website ministry has been brought into question and condemned, and I have been persecuted and shunned, kicked out of several churches. Psalms 118:6, “The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?”

I Was Persecuted at Family Baptist Church in Pensacola

In had attended Family Baptist Church for 45 months, until in June of 2025 their ungodly neo-evangelical pastors kicked me and my wife out. I was wrong to stay in that cult for so long. I was lonely to have a church family, and chose to overlook their heresy. In all the years that I attended their church they ignored and shunned me because of my website ministry. No one ever invited me out to eat, even though they went out together as a church group on a regular basis. It was “Us four and no more!” What selfish jerks!

The church is WRONG on the Gospel. In their official Statement of Faith the church requires you to “repent of your sins” to get to Heaven. But that is NOT part of the Gospel. Unless you are using one of the Devil's corrupted Bible perversions, you cannot show me any place in the inspired Word of God where it teaches to forsake your sins to be saved. That would be WORKS! Romans 4:4 says that salvation has always been by grace, never by works.

In April of 2025, the church's shameful pastor Brad Moffett met with me and my wife in his office. We had been invited for a different purpose, but Pastor Brad unethically and horribly decided to censure my website ministry instead during that time, which was very low class. In that unpleasant meeting Brad (I am old enough to be his father) was upset over my preaching against Pensacola Christian College. Sadly, Family Baptist Church (like Smyrna) is in bed committing spiritual adultery with PCC. Birds of a feather flock together!

Pastor Brad wickedly slandered Pastor Jack Hyles, accusing him of being a dirty old man with a carnal mind for saying in a sermon, quote: “I don't have a dirty mind, I have a man's mind.” What Brother Hyles said is 100% true. There is nothing wrong with his statement. Any honest man will admit he is tempted with sexual thoughts when he sees a woman bending over, or wearing tight, scant and revealing clothes. If you're a man and you don't have such thoughts, you should go see a doctor to see what's wrong, or perhaps you're a homosexual.

Yet, to our bewilderment in his office, Brad Moffett cited Galatians 5:16, “This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh,” using that passage as an excuse to justify his worldly wife wearing her sexy pants in public. Brad foolishly said it shouldn't matter if his wife wears her sexy pants, because a man who walks in the Spirit won't lust after her. What a darn fool! Brad ignores the fact that most men do not even have the indwelling Holy Spirit, because they are not saved (1st John 3:24).

Furthermore, just because a Christian man walks in the Spirit, doesn't mean that he won't be tempted by a wicked pastor's wife who defies the biblical commandment to wear modest attire. Pants are not modest! SHAME on Brad Moffett and his verbally abusive wicked father, Bobby Moffett. SHAME on the whole family for defending and promoting immodesty in the church and in public. Brother Hyles wasn't a dirty old man, he had a normal man's mind, just like me and any other honest fella. Brad Moffett is a henpecked liar!

I and my wife were grossly mistreated by Family Baptist Church in Pensacola, for which persecution they will give account to God almighty in eternity. They will reap the evils which they have sown (Galatians 6:7). They will be held accountable by God for perverting God's simple plan of salvation. They will give account for kicking people out of church left and right, in the pastor's spite and a vengeful ungodly spirit of hatred. They wicked kicked out Brother Tom and Sharon. They did Perry and his wife wrong. They did Bobby who lives across the street wrong. Family Baptist Church has blood on their hands, but they couldn't care less, which is their whole problem.

I've Been Persecuted for Telling the Truth

I have only shared with you some of the persecution, abuse and mistreatment that I have suffered at the hands of incompetent, angry, ungodly and foolish pastors and their ungodly wives. What was my great crime? Why, I just TOLD THE TRUTH. The fastest way to be wicked out of church and sent for therapy is to simply TELL THE TRUTH! I am hated by the Bob Jones University and Pensacola Christian College camps, for exposing them!!! These religious cults are money-driven, not truth-driven.

Dear reader, I will never back down, come what may. They'll never shut me up! They can sue me and I'll hire a lawyer and go to court, and I'll spend every penny I have to fight them. Unless a judge takes away my internet connection, I will be right back exposing them for the wicked FALSE PROPHETS and unloving religious hypocrites that they are. I didn't kicked them out, they kicked me out! I was actually nice to them, but they are authoritarian thugs.

I hate the 'Preacher Boys' YouTube channel that attacks fallen independent fundamental Baptist pastors and preachers, but I have far more respect for Eric Skwarczynski (a former independent fundamental Baptist in 2020, turned ex-Christian in 2021) than I do authoritarian bullies like Marty Herron, Sean Quinan, Jeff Redlin, Bill Adams and Bobby Moffett who throw hurting people under the bus, like all of them wickedly DID TO ME! I shared my personal health afflictions, painful unwanted divorce, utter loneliness and heavy burdens with all of those incompetent pastors, but they couldn't have cared less about me as a hurting human being, and they axed me. They blackballed me for exposing the lie that you don't have to “repent of your sins” to get to Heaven.

When dictator Fidel Castro (1926-2016) died in 2016, his brother became the leader of Cuba. His brother overturned the 47 year previous ban since 1969 which outlawed Holy Bibles in Cuba. Did you know that the communist government of Cuba in 2018 rejected a shipment of 17,000 NIV (New International Version) Bibles? It's true! Cuba's government said they only want King James Bibles. Isn't that something! We've got tens of thousands of stupid American pastors today who use, support, sell and endorse the Devil's modern perversions of God's Word, while a communist country has enough Horsesense to only use the inspired King James Bible. Wow! God bless Raul Castro who fought against his tyrant brother Fidel and gave the inspired Word of God back to the people. Cuba puts Bob Jones University to utter shame!

My Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will avenge me! I have fought the good fight of faith. Does it get personal at times? Yes, of course. How can it not be personal when they keep kicking me out of churches, taking away my friends? Each time it feels like a divorce. Again, my only crime was TELLING THE TRUTH. Every one of the pastors I just mentioned preach a counterfeit plan of salvation. They are all making money, every last one of them. Since 2002 when I began my website ministry 24 years ago, I have never taken a single penny from anyone for my hard work, to God alone be the glory.

When my ministry friend Pastor Max D. Younce (1935-2023) graciously mailed me a check years ago for $200, I didn't cash it and I kindly mailed the check back with a 5-page appreciation letter, thanking him but kindly letting Dr. Younce know that I have never and will never accept any money for my labors for Jesus Christ. My ministry is a work of love. Jeff Redlin at PCC's Campus Church gets paid $100,000 a year ($8,000 a month), with a net worth of one million dollars, which you can verify online. Spiritual crime pays well. That explains why Mr. Redlin was mean to me and I am banned from attending Campus Church. Proverbs 18:23, “The poor useth intreaties; but the rich answereth roughly.” Redlin is a rich snob.

I Was Persecuted at Lighthouse Baptist Church on Guam

When I attended the shameful Lighthouse Baptist Church on Guam in 2018, Pastor Sean Quinlan (a PCC intern pastor) was distributing that same Satanic Campus Church booklet that I quoted from at the beginning of this article, teaching that you must turn from your sinful bad habits and follow God's will for your life to be saved. That is NOT the Gospel! These clowns for the sake of making money (job security) go along with each other, afraid to step on one another's toes, so they remain silent and damn the souls of men with a false gospel.

Romans 16:17-18, “Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.”

What an indictment! Dear reader, I am not a hateful man. I love people, especially preachers. God knows my heart. But when pastors mark and avoid me for TELLING THE TRUTH, they are guilty of pulling on the same rope as the Devil. Perhaps you think that I am a troublemaker. Yes, absolutely, you'd be right, and by grace I intend to cause more trouble! 1st Kings 18:16-18, “So Obadiah went to meet Ahab, and told him: and Ahab went to meet Elijah. And it came to pass, when Ahab saw Elijah, that Ahab said unto him, Art thou he that troubleth Israel? And he answered, I have not troubled Israel; but thou, and thy father's house, in that ye have forsaken the commandments of the LORD, and thou hast followed Baalim.” So you see dear reader I am not the troublemaker, the ungodly pastors in this blog that I've mentioned are the troublemakers for perverting the Gospel (Galatians 1:6-7).

Telling the truth from the inspired King James Bible has become a crime in today's churches! I am the victim of a conspiracy among every church in Pensacola that supports and is associated with Pensacola Christian College. I am a marked man! They hate me. You should have seen Pastor Josh Thompson's face (he was literally sweating bullets) when I visited his Fairfield Drive Baptist Church (five minutes from my house) in 2023. His wife had hatred all over her face toward me. Thankfully, I came and left without any cross words. Pastor Josh wickedly teaches a class at PCC.

I had met Pastor Josh Thompson several months earlier at the Pensacola Interstate Fair at PCC's religious booth in the Exhibit Building (appropriately just next to the Jehovah's Witness' booth). I asked Josh if he was teaching the Gospel or Lordship Salvation? That wicked pastor told me that he teaches Lordship Salvation, citing Acts 16:31b, “Believe on the LORD Jesus Christ.” But carefully notice that the Scripture says to believe on the “Lord Jesus Christ,” it doesn't say to believe on Jesus as your “Lord.” There's a big difference!

I titled this article: 'Ungodly Corrupt Authoritarian Neo-Fundamentalist Churches And Bible Colleges.' You're not allowed to challenge their authoritarian leadership. When they opened their doors in 1927, you couldn't have found a more fundamentalist institution that Bob Jones College (which they changed in 1947 to Bob Jones University). After Dr. Bob jones Sr. (1883-1968) went to Heaven, his sons ran the institution into the ground spiritually. In 2001 after the 9-11 attacks on the World Trade Center, Dr. Bob Jones III decided to no longer call their college “fundamentalist,” claiming that the term had been demonized because of Muslim Jihadi fundamentalists. What a lame excuse for neo-evangelical apostasy and sinful compromise! By God's grace, I am proud to still be called a Christian fundamentalist! We are hated by wicked neo-evangelicals and neo-fundamentalists. Remember, fundamentalists don't change, people quit being fundamentalists!

That is why I call them “neo-fundamentalists,” because they have quit being true fundamentalists. The King James Bible is not merely another “version,” it is God's inspired Word. That is, they have quit adhering to the fundamental teaching of the inspired King James Bible. Today, BJU is a cesspool of iniquity. In 2018, their incompetent president Dr. Steve Pettit removed the institution's long standing policy (since 1927) against girls wearing pants. Woe unto that fool! Shame! SHAME!!! The Word of God teaches MODESTY for females (1st Timothy 2:9). Take a lustful look at Bob Jones today! Only a wicked fool would defend that!

When Pensacola Christian College opened their doors in 1974, they taught a free grace Gospel. Both Beka (1929-2020) and Arlin Horton (born 1928) who founded PCC are BJU graduates! That speaks volumes, because as BJU turned apostate, leaving a free grace position in preference of Dr. John MacArthur's Lordship Salvation garbage (MacArthur is also an alumnus of BJU), PCC followed BJU's downfall into apostasy.

Dr. Steve Pettit has wickedly honored John MacArthur! They are buddies and Mr. Pettit fully supports Dr. MacArthur's damnable Lordship Salvation heresy, because he is also guilty of preaching it! PCC has hired BJU graduates! Wolves have entered the hen house! This is what always happens over time, apostasy sets in like cancer. The first step to change for the worst is when an institution stops contending for the Christian faith! Whatever a pastor stops preaching against is what his church will full up with in five years. BJU went to the Devil a long time ago, and sadly so has PCC. One of the biggest lies you'll hear today is that PCC is a fundamentalist Bible college. No, they are not! They are neo-fundamentalists! They are all wrong on God's simple plan of salvation, pulling on the same rope as the Devil.

I am often reminded of singer Kenny Rogers' (1938-2020) popular 1979 iconic song, 'Coward Of The County,' in which he sings these powerful lyrics:

“I promised you, Dad, not to do the things you done.
I walk away from trouble when I can.
Now please don't think I'm weak, I didn't turn the other cheek,
and Papa, I sure hope you understand:
Sometimes you gotta fight when you're a man.”

The man's father had always rightly taught him that you don't have to fight to be a man, but there comes times in every man's life when he has no choice but to fight, because he is a man. I didn't pick these battles, they came to me. I had already formed a negative opinion of PCC before I moved to Pensacola in 2021, but I wanted to go see what they taught and find out firsthand their story. Well, I found out very quickly that they are WRONG on God's simple plan of salvation. Any preacher who places the burden of turning from sin upon the sinner's shoulder is robbing Christ who paid the price for our sins by shedding His blood on Calvary's cross. The true Gospel always points you to CHRIST; a false gospel always points to YOU.

Tyranny is rarely seen except by those who are oppressed by it.

Galatians 4:16, “Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?”

Don't Let People Guilt-Trip You For Not Going To Church

noreply@blogger.com (David J. Stewart) — Thu, 30 Apr 2026 06:30:00 +0000

Hebrews 10:23-27, “Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.”

We live in a world of self-righteous hypocrites. Sometimes religious people make me sick! Our text passage of Scripture from the New Testament book of Hebrews (particularly verse 25 about not forsaking the assembly of ourselves together) is perhaps the most abused and misused Bible verse today. I have had mean people cruelly throw this Bible verse in my face, trying to make me feel guilty for missing a church service due to my poor health, or for not going to church at all because I couldn't find an acceptable one to attend. That is a very ungodly thing to do to someone, guilt-tripping them.

According to PositivePsychology.com in the Netherlands...

Guilt tripping is a manipulative tactic where one person tries to make another feel guilty to influence their behavior or decisions. It often involves emotional pressure that targets the recipient's sense of responsibility or care for the person applying the guilt. SOURCE

A lot of religious people try to guilt-trip others to be unkind and a jerk. They should all SHUT UP in Jesus' name!

When I attended the Harvest Baptist Church on Guam in 2014, I stayed home the previous Sunday because my neck pain was overwhelming and I didn't sleep well at night. When a young Christian fella in the Navy asked where I was last Sunday, I told him the truth that I was in much neck pain. The jerk said, “Forsake not the assembling of ourselves together Brother!” What he said deeply hurt my feelings. What a selfish jerk! I am old enough to be his father. I am sick and tired of hypocrites! If you ever do that to someone, guilt-tripping them, you are the scum of the earth as a human being!

Several years ago I had another little tramp do the same thing to me. I was visiting the Lighthouse Baptist Church on Guam in 2018 for about a year. The young Christian woman asked where I was the previous Sunday and I told her the truth that I was at home in much pain and suffering. She looked down her long Pharisaical nose to condemn me, saying: “Well, we have a man in church that has high blood pressure, and he takes the same prescription medications as you do, and he is always here at church.” I wanted to call her a “stupid cold-hearted brat,” but I said nothing as a gentleman, knowing that she is immature as an adult. She had no idea what she was even talking about. In fact, we DON'T take the “same” prescription drugs, and how would she even know what medications we take? Listen dear reader, it is none of anybody's business who goes to church, or why someone stayed home, et cetera. People need to learn to mind their own business!

I have no doubt that some zealous churchgoer is going to criticize me for this article, but so be it, that doesn't mean that I am wrong. God understands each person's individual and unique situation. In his helpful book (that I cherish reading again and again), “I Never Knew You,” by Christian author Michael P. Bowen, he writes on page 115 that he cannot attend any of the churches in his town because they all preach a counterfeit plan of salvation...

According to many verses in the bible, especially those warnings God gave to us through Paul in the book of Galatians, you should never listen to anyone’s message that runs counter to the message given to us by Christ, and you should never attend a church where the pastor tells the flock that they must add works of discipleship to faith in Christ’s “finished work” as the way to enter heaven. That’s exactly the reason why I no longer attend any of the local churches in my current hometown. [emphasis added] —Michael P. Bowen, “I Never Knew You,” p, 115

For that very reason I have been expelled (kicked out) of the last five churches that I've attended, for merely TELLING THE TRUTH. Today's incompetent pastors are dingleberries!

Guilt-tripping is a form of emotional manipulation that can harm relationships and is not a healthy way to communicate. Ephesians 4:32, “And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.” We should be forgiving, kind to one another, encouraging the saints to treat each other with compassion rather than using guilt to control or influence actions. I understand that there are many different scenarios, so I am not addressing every instance in this blog.

In 2014 I heard Pastor Marty Herron at the Harvest Baptist Church on Guam tell hundreds of church members one of the most shameful things that I have ever heard. He said, “Once people are offended and feelings are hurt, it's over!” That's holding a grudge! What Pastor Herron should have said is that even though we are all sinful humans, the Bible commands us to forgive, to be kind, and to love one another instead of holding grudges. Marty Herron was henpecked by the rich people in Harvest Baptist Church, under their wicked control.

I am writing this particular article to encourage anyone who like me, has had much difficulty finding a doctrinally sound local church to attend; and who like me, has health afflictions which cause them to need to be at home most of the time. After all, that is why I receive medical disability. Yet, there are many complete jerks in churches today who will selfishly berate, scold, tear down, guilt-trip and criticize you for your situation, having zero empathy for you. I have heard preachers say that if you have to crawl, don't miss church. I humbly disagree. In these modern times we have plenty of solid Bible preaching available on social media.

When you put someone down for missing church, putting the guilt-trip on them for their situation, the Bible likens you to a monster who takes away someone's warm coat in the winter, leaving them to freeze to death in the cold. Proverbs 25:20, “As he that taketh away a garment in cold weather, and as vinegar upon nitre, so is he that singeth songs to an heavy heart.” That jerk at Harvest Baptist Church on Guam who guilt-tripped me for missing church was a perfectly healthy young man at the time, showing total disregard for my health afflictions. What a self-righteous hypocrite! Be nice to people.

And that young Christian woman at the Lighthouse Baptist Church on Guam who guilt-tripped me for missing church, she and her husband eventually quit going to church and stayed at home for years! What a little self-righteous hypocrite! To the best of my recollection, as a witness before God my Savior, I have never one time in my entire life guilt-tripped anybody for anything. If I have I am so sorry, but I don't think I have. I am pretty good at minding my own business. Proverbs 26:17, “He that passeth by, and meddleth with strife belonging not to him, is like one that taketh a dog by the ears.”

Sometimes people email me and ask, “Are you talking about me?” I never tell them because THEY KNOW if it's them. I tell them instead what I tell everyone: “If the shoe fits wear it!” If my preaching rings your bell, then I probably am talking about you. If it doesn't then don't worry about it and learn from other's mistakes and sins.

Don't Compare Yourself To Other Christians

I am not trying to upset or offend anybody, and if you are offended then you are missing the entire point of my sermon article. I am simply saying that we should mind our own business. What saith the Scripture?

2nd Corinthians 10:12, “For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.”

It is foolish to compare your life and circumstances to that of others. I used to feel bad when I compared myself to some of my peers that I graduated from Hyles-Anderson College with. Some of them are pastoring churches. Others are laboring on the mission field in foreign countries for Christ. Most of them have loyal wives by their side. But I have a website ministry that is not recognized as a legitimate ministry by most Christians. My wife divorced me in 2006 and left me all alone in my physical suffering and chronic pain.

That really depressed me, being alone and not having a recognizable ministry. If you look at church websites that link to other ministries, I can only think of ONE church website that lists my Jesus-is-Savior.com ministry, and that is the website of my long time ministry friend Pastor Max D. Younce (1935-2023). But God impressed upon my heart years ago that it doesn't matter what other people think, He is my only Judge (James 4:12). My website ministry work for Christ is exponentially reaching far more people than I ever could have as a church pastor or missionary to a foreign country. I am an evangelist to cyberspace, a missionary to the internet, and my ministry is 100% valid and recognized by Heaven's hosts.

I have been dealt different cards in life than others have. I grew up around Skid Row in Chicago, tagging along with my father who ministered to the bereaved, broken and destitute of life for over 30 years as a Skid Row Gospel preacher. That humbled me, allowing me to see where booze and sin can take a person, to the gutter! Thankfully, by God's grace, I have never drank a drop of booze, never smoked a cigarette, and have never taken any illegal drugs. I count myself very blessed, because many people have.

In 1992, I was severely rear-ended by a church bus that permanently misaligned my neck, leading to a diagnosis of Cervical Degenerative Disk Disease and Stenosis in 2004. Sadly, and painfully, I tumbled 15 feet down a conveyor slide at work in 2005, which worsened my injury, adding Radiculopathy to my list of afflictions. So, for a guy like me, God has given me the perfect ministry, that I can work on at home at my leisure. I often need to go lay down and rest.

By God's grace over the past 24 years, I figure I must have at least 50,000 hours invested into my website ministry. There have been at least three times that I remember, when I worked through for 37 hours straight, and thousands of days when I worked for 12 hours or more. It's hard to believe that there are 55,572 files just on my Jesus-is-Savior.com website; I've not been idle for 24 years. I give God alone all the praise, credit and glory (John 15:5).

So, I no longer compare myself to others, because it's simply not fair to myself. Everybody's situation, variables and plight in life is different. God is faithful (1st Corinthians 1:9).

Mind Your Own Business Friend

What do you care who comes to church and how often? What's it to you? You should mind your own business. My old boss used to wisely say: “If you've got enough time to watch what others aren't doing, then you must not have enough work to do yourself.” Amen to that! People should drive in their own lane and mind their own vehicle. Some of the most miserable, hateful and resentful people are the ones who always notice what everybody else is doing or not doing. Really, live your own life in obedience to the Lord Jesus Christ, and pray for others who are lagging behind in your opinion. It's not your jurisdiction to condemn others.

Ah, and then there's the religious hypocrite for a wife, who wickedly badgers her husband to go to church. I fully agree with Pastor Curtis Hutson, who teaches that if a Christian husband tells his wife to stay home with him from church, she should stay home. If you disagree with that, it is only because you have been adversely influenced by the evils of toxic feminism. Going to church makes you religious, it doesn't make you a good Christian.

I’ve been thinking about how feminism is destroying women and marriages. It’s everywhere now. I know a good man whose wife just left him. The guy would have done anything for her, bent over backwards, but she said she just wasn’t “happy.” So many women today have been sold the Devil's lies and they’re chasing something that doesn’t even exist. Many disgruntled wives are wearing rose-colored glasses, chasing unicorns and rainbows to nowhere. Proverbs 14:1, “Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands.”

With the blessing of the internet in these modern times it has never been easier to obey Hebrews 10:25b, “not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is...” It's not the same as physically attending a local church, I get that. But it is nevertheless possible to hear solid, fundamental, Christ-honoring, Bible preaching today via an internet connection. And you can tithe to a church online. And you can encourage and fellowship with the saints online. Praise God! So, you don't have to physically go into a concrete building somewhere to obey this Scripture.

That being said, please don't misunderstand me, I am a firm believer that everybody should attend a local Bible-believing, free grace Gospel only, inspired King James Bible only, sin-fighting, soulwinning, people-loving, separated, fundamentalist, New Testament church. Nothing can substitute for physically going to the House of God. I understand that only the believer's body is the temple of the indwelling Holy Spirit, but the local church is where we meet, the House of God.

Unfortunately, an increasing number of believers simply cannot find a doctrinally sound church in their local area to attend, and that's a big problem. It's becoming next to impossible anymore to find a Baptist church that doesn't preach the damnable heresies of Lordship Salvation (Calvinism) and Misunderstood Repentance (aka, the “repent of your sins” to be saved garbage). These are corrupt cults that you SHOULD NOT attend, nor even listen to, not for even one hour. Galatians 2:4-5, “And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage: To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.” Paul refused to hear the other side of the argument. False prophets are subverted of themselves, like the insane flat earth camp.

It is better to just stay home from church than to attend a cult where a counterfeit plan of salvation is preached, and the Devil's corruptible seed is used (i.e., the Devil's bibles).

So, please don't condemn me for my health afflictions if I stay home from church more than half of the time. You are wicked and a horrible person if you berate and guilt-trip anyone for missing church. What you ought to be doing is encouraging that person, praying for them and telling the individual (or family) that you love them in the Lord. Five minutes of praise will do more to help a person than a lifetime of criticism. Proverbs 27:21, “As the fining pot for silver, and the furnace for gold; so is a man to his praise.”

And please don't condemn someone for not going to church if all of the churches in their area are preaching damnable heresy! I tell you, you'd be ten thousand times better off staying home from church altogether, than to go to a cult that preaches Satan's fraud of Lordship Salvation, and the “repent of your sins” garbage to be saved that Ken Ham preaches; or they use the Devil's toxic modern polluted Bible perversions. RUN away quickly!

Furthermore, not everyone can drive for an hour to find a good church. I personally cannot drive for more than about 20 minutes due to my adverse health and prescription drug side effects, because I fall asleep behind the wheel. When I visited Tennessee in 2013, I fell asleep while driving from Knoxville to Nashville and I almost died, crashing my rent car into the roadway safety traffic barrier. Thankfully, those concrete safety walls are designed to lean back when you hit them, and toss your car's wheel back onto the roadway, which saved my life. I was lucky and blessed. My guardian angels were on the job watching over me that day! I couldn't believe that there was no damage to the car! That being said, I try not to drive more than short distances. So, I need to find a local church that is a short distance from me. I sure wish a New IFB church would come to Pensacola! The fields are ripe for harvest here!

Dear reader, my whole point in all that I have shared with you in this article is simply that you don't know what other people have to deal with. You don't know their whole story. You don't know what prescription medications they are taking, how many drugs, or how those various medications interact and impact that person's health, mind and life. You don't know their marital situation or family issues. Who am I, or who are you, to condemn others for staying home from church? Honestly, in view of today's pathetic church scene, I see a lot of people leaving the churches to find God. I am not kidding!

At present I am taking seven different prescription medications from two different doctors to control my Type II diabetes, triglycerides, neck pain, burning nerves and radiating sharp pain in my limbs. Thankfully, my A1C that was 10.8% in 2023 is now down at 5.5% (normal) thanks to my doctor. I cannot express in words how miserable I am, physically. The agonizing pain in my neck in a burning pain that radiates into my shoulders and upper back. It is debilitating. The entire right side of my body feels half asleep all the time, which feels like dead weight when I stand up to walk. I live in a lonely world of pain and discomfort. It is the “new norm.” God is good and I have no complaints. Pastor Jack Hyles is right that life is a veil of tears.

The sharp pain radiating down my right arm into my thumb is so awful at times. I love playing stringed musical instruments, but rarely feel the ambition to do so. I just need to often lay down and rest. Sadly, my own wife does not understand what I am suffering through, and she is unfairly demanding of me at times, lacking compassion and understanding to “put up with me.” Understandably, I get irritated and frustrated easily. That is why I strive to keep my life simple.

All I can do is take life one day at a time by God's amazing grace. I learned that we do not grow in strength as Christians, we grow in grace (2nd Peter 3:18). Not being able to obtain an adequate amount of prescription pain medication in Florida has made everything much more difficult for me. I am only provided 40 mg of OxyContin daily by my doctor, which is a joke compared to the 140 mg I received daily 15 years ago on Guam. I need at least 80 mg just to cope. Having only 40 mg a day is not near enough, but no one cares.

The federal and state governments certainly don't care about pain sufferers. The pain doctors are afraid of getting into trouble with the government, so they refuse to treat pain. Tyranny is rarely seen except by those who are oppressed by it. We are not anywhere near as "free" as we have been led to believe by the corrupt American media and White House. It is a shame that U.S. citizens suffering in pain are treated like criminals.

In conclusion, if you know a Christian who is not faithful to attend church, don't guilt-trip, berate, condemn or put them down. Instead, encourage them in the LORD by showing unconditional love toward them. How about giving them a big hug in the Lord? Cordially invite them to church, but don't pressure them. And if someone tells you that they have health problems, let them know you understand and and leave it alone. Pray for that individual. 1st Peter 4:8, “And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.” Please don't miss what the Bible just said... AND ABOVE ALL THINGS... love one another.

The Cult Of The Family

noreply@blogger.com (David J. Stewart) — Wed, 29 Apr 2026 05:30:00 +0000

Matthew 10:37-38, “He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.”

The heathen secular world says, “Family is everything!” But is that what the inspired Holy Bible says? No, not at all. Jesus said in our text passage of Scripture, “He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.” The things of God must come first.

Umpteen Hollywood movies often show scenes where men who miss their child's birthday party because they're busy working are demonized as being bad fathers. The world worships the family life, but we are supposed to worship Jesus Christ. Luke 14:26, “If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.” Family is not everything!

Too many people in the heathen world worship their spouse. That is unscriptural. You should love your wife or husband, but you should love God more. Your love for Jesus Christ should be a greater priority than your love for anything or anyone else in this world. Family time ought not be a greater priority than serving God. I don't want my wife to love me more than anyone else. I want her to love God more, because if she loves God then she will submit to me and not sass me. She won't pursue her own selfish plans and ideas without me. She will obey her husband.

The Christian Life is a Matter of Priorities

Your priorities in family life should be:

Christ
your spouse
children

If you get those priorities wrong, you'll find misery. The children will someday grow up and leave home, and then what kind of marriage will you have left? A wife who puts her children before her husband is a fool. The man of the house should always eat first, then the kids.

Many Dad's are demonized by Hollywood movies for missing their child's birthday, because the man's boss demanded that he either come to work or be fired. Hollywood and the ungodly media continually attack and demean fathers, husbands and boys. There is a Satanic agenda at work in the United States to undermine male authority and masculinity in society. That same Satanic agenda wants to destroy femininity and female submission to ruin the family. The evils of feminism can be seen in the skyrocketing divorce rate today.

Beware of the evils of feminism! We are headed for disaster in this country when clowns like Kamala Harris are running for the office of U.S. President. There is a group of Satanists who want a female in the White House as U.S. President, and it will be the downfall of our nation. Isaiah 3:12, “As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.”

The day that a woman becomes our U.S. President will be the nails in our coffin as a country. And you can be assured dear reader that when the demon-possessed Democrats retake the White House in a few years that they'll bring back all of the demonic Diversity, Equality and Inclusion (D.E.I.) filth, transgender confusion and wickedness with a vengeance to undo all that President Trump has accomplished for good. I've never seen such insane hatred of a political figure as toward President Donald Trump because of what he stands for, decency and righteousness, even though he is an unsaved man with many faults.

I fully agree with the phenomenal quote made by The Godfather (played by actor Marlon Brando in the 1972 Hollywood movie of the same title): “A man who doesn't spend time with his family can never be a real man.” Yes, I agree. What saith the Scripture? 1st Timothy 5:8, “But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.” A man is expected by God to take care of his own family, and to spend quality time with them. So, obviously we have to set priorities and seek to have a balance in our life. God must always come first!

Family is not everything! To the heathen person family is everything. The inspired King James Bible teaches that obeying God is everything. Ecclesiastes 12:13, “Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.” God only knows how many sinners will miss Heaven someday because they were unwilling to break away from their family's religious tradition (Mark 7:9).

Your Family May Reject Your Faith in Jesus

By obeying God, it is quite possible that your own family may turn against you and despise your faith. Matthew 10:34-36, “Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.”

I once led a Hispanic man to the Lord at work about 30 years ago. His name was Moreno. Shortly thereafter he told me that his staunch Roman Catholic family had rejected him. Moreno said his own mother mocked him for becoming a born again Christian. He said that she made fun of born again Christians with their storefront hole-in-the-wall churches, in comparison to the great Catholic cathedrals with their exquisite marble, architectural elegance and massive wealth. I felt sorry for my Christian friend at work, that his own Catholic family had cruelly turned against his new found faith in Christ. This is what Jesus meant when He warned in Matthew 10:36, “And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.”

So, when your family turns against you dear Christian, are you going to quit on God? When your wife abandons you, as mine did me twice, will you abandon God? The biggest mistake you'll ever make is to center your life around your spouse and your children, because they will be gone someday without warning, and then you'll be alone. God must be not only first in our life, but the central theme of everything (Hebrews 12:2).

The disloyal wife of famous evangelist Charles Weigle (1871-1966) abandoned him. Charles Weigle's wife left him because like my wife, she wanted to go her own way to do her own thing, refusing to obey her husband. This personal betrayal deeply influenced his songwriting, particularly in his hymn titled: “No One Ever Cared for Me Like Jesus.”

Dr. Weigle was a Baptist evangelist and noted hymn writer of more than 1,000 hymns. He entered heaven's gates December 3, 1966 at age 95, from Chattanooga, Tennessee. After he was called to be an evangelist, his wife came to him one day and said: “I’m leaving, Charlie. I don’t want to live the life you are living. I want to go the other way—to the bright lights.” Their only child, a daughter, left with her. That very night Charles saw them off on a train to the other side of the country. Five years passed before he wrote another song, but God healed him. His wife died as a consequence of a life of sin. SOURCE

God is faithful (1st Corinthians 1:9). I actually learned this truth about 'The Cult Of Family' from my ministry friend Pastor Steven Anderson in his latest sermon titled: 'Nehemiah 4: Building And Battling.' I fully agree with Brother Anderson that the heathen world idolizes the family, but Jesus Christ has no place in their lives. This is why the world is in such a mess today.

Family Is Not Everything!

Just Because You're Married To A Hard Working Christian Man Doesn't Mean You'll Share In All His Rewards

noreply@blogger.com (David J. Stewart) — Tue, 28 Apr 2026 10:00:00 +0000

1st Corinthians 3:6-8, “I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase. Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.”

I know this is kind of a strange title for a blog, but it's an important truth that I want to teach others. I used to think that if you're married to someone who works hard for the Lord, then that spouse will also have great rewards in Heaven. But then it occurred to me that the inspired Holy Bible does not teach that. In fact, not at all! What the Bible does teach is found in our text passage of Scripture from 1st Corinthians 3:8b, “...and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.”

Dear female reader, I don't care if your husband is the hardest work fella in town, you won't receive any rewards at the Judgment Seat of Christ if you are a lazy, unreliable, burden for a wife to your husband. God is not going to reward you for dragging down your husband emotionally, giving him a hard time, sassing him continually and making his life miserable. Serving your husband is the way that a wife serves God...

Ephesians 5:22-24, “Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.”

I know a Christian married couple. The man's wife is foolish. Whenever she gets angry at him, she goes to women's shelters for months and claims “abuse.” The man is not abusive toward her, quite the opposite. She is lazy and refuses to fulfill her duties in the marriage. Her husband has to correct her for leaving shoes, items and clothes in the middle of the floor. She is careless. Worse, his wife is rebellious and every time he corrects her (which he has a biblical right to do as her authority). She is defiant and punishes him by leaving for months at a time to go to shelters. Back centuries ago when people had marital struggles they had no choice but to tough it out, but that's not the case at all today. Many women are spoiled brats!

Her husband is a hard working fella in his work and ministry. I can assure you that his problematic wife will not share in his glory and rewards in Heaven someday, when all she did was make his life miserable. She never does his laundry. She rarely cooks him a decent meal. She has to be asked to do the things that a wife is supposed to do, but it goes back to her being as lazy as a hound. Laziness is a horrible sin!

Marriage is the only business contract where one party can fail to uphold their side and still receive benefits. Until marriage becomes a partnership and not a legal liability men will continue to keep saying, “No thanks!”

A Wife's Purpose is To Be Her Husband's 'Help Meet'

Dear female reader, if you are a wife it is YOUR JOB to be a help meet to your hubby. Genesis 2:18, “And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.” If you take issue with the biblical idea of your husband being your “boss,” then you need to get right with God. I say that humbly with kindness. I do not intend to be offensive, God knows my heart.

We have a serious problem in America today with feminism, which is rebellion against God-ordained authority in the home. What saith the Scripture? 1st Samuel 15:23, “For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king.” When you women mouth-off to your husband, sassing and making inflammatory remarks that push his buttons to anger him, you are on par with a witch who worships Satan! I didn't say that, your Creator did. The $64,000 question is: DO YOU CARE?

If at this point you are upset and asking, “Well what about my husband?,” then you really have some attitude issues that need to be addressed. I am being your friend. The main reason why so many married women are empowered, angry and rebellious today is simply because they can be. Our American culture has deteriorated over the past 75 years. Abortion is now legal. Homosexuality is everywhere in society today. Women only wear dental floss at the beach. The churches are empty because the pulpits are spiritually dead. Evil abounds.

U.S. women gained the right to vote with the ratification of the 19th Amendment on August 18, 1920. However, the struggle for women's rights began much earlier, with significant activism dating back to the mid-19th century. Now, I know that very few people will like or agree with what I am about to say, but it is 100% absolutely true nonetheless. I humbly think we were much better off when women had no rights.

Back in the old days of America men ran society, the way it ought to be. Women should have no place in politics. I realize that this statement will harelip every dog in the county, but God ordained that men and not women make societal decisions. God forbid the day when a rebellious feminist clown like Kamala Harris becomes our U.S. President (and she is talking about running again in 2028 for U.S. President). Isaiah 3:12, “As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.” I assure you that when the Democrats reclaim the White House, you will see evil flourish in our country like never before. They will bring back all the D.E.I. (diversity, equality and inclusion) perversion, transgender confusion and utter depraved wickedness! God's judgment will not sleep forever!

U.S. women did not have many legal rights until the late 19th and early 20th centuries. For example, women were largely considered property of their husbands and could not vote, own property, or access credit independently until various laws were enacted, such as the Married Women's Property Act in 1848 and the 19th Amendment in 1920. Like it or not, God wants men to lead society, the churches, the home and marriage. As Isaiah 3:12 warns, when women lead society bad things begin to happen and they ruin things! God said that!

I am not down on women, which some feminist is no doubt already accusing me of. I simply believe the inspired Holy Bible. 1st Timothy 5:14-15, “I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully. For some are already turned aside after Satan.” Again, like it or not, the Bible calls career when “turned aside after Satan.” God hates the vile shacking-up culture that bar hops from nightclub to nightclub, fornicating, having abortions and defying God.

A Rebellious Wife is Dead While She Liveth

I heard an interesting sermon today by Pastor Jack Hyles called: “Oh Brother, You're Inhuman.” I made this sermon excerpt from the message that I titled: “She Is Dead Living In Pleasure.” 1st Timothy 5:6, “But she that liveth in pleasure is dead while she liveth.” Dr. Hyles said this verse doesn't mean you're dead for drinking booze, stealing, smoking cigarettes, whoring around or committing other sins; but rather, it means if you are living outside of the will of God for your life, you are spiritually dead.

In the sermon, Pastor Hyles explains that there are three types of life:

plant (body)
animal (body & soul)
human (body, soul & spirit)

So, when we live outside of the will of God, we are spiritually dead and living at the same level as animals, who have no spirit. This is what Brother Hyles means by the interesting title of his sermon: “Oh Brother, You're Inhuman.”

God Will Only Reward You For Your Own Labors

1st Corinthians 3:8, “Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.”

I don't care how hard your husband works for the Lord Jesus Christ, you are only going to be rewarded ladies for YOUR OWN labors. So, yes, you will be rewarded in eternity for cleaning the house, doing the dishes, scrubbing toilets, mopping floors, carpet shampooing, loving on your hubby, spending hours preparing decent home cooked meals, washing and drying the clothes, helping the children with their homework, feeding the family's pet dog, praying, sewing, and a hundred other duties of a homemaker. It's all a part of being a HELP MEET to your husband. God takes this matter of a wife submitting to her husband VERY seriously...

Ephesians 5:22-24, “Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.”

Just because you are married to a Christian husband who labors night and day for Christ doesn't guarantee you rewards in Heaven ladies. The inspired Holy Bible is very plain that we will all be rewarded only for OUR OWN labors done for Christ. Since the Scripture plainly teaches that younger women (i.e., any woman of child bearing age) should be married with children and a homemaker, then that is God's perfect will for every young woman's life.

Every Christian wife and mother in Heaven will only receive rewards for what she did to help her husband and obey him. A wife that leaves her husband yet does many good works for others won't be rewarded by God because she was A.W.O.L. It is no different than if a military soldier abandons his designated post. That soldier can go do great things for others. He may go home and help his mother work around the house. He may go and save someone's life. But he will not be rewarded by the U.S. military because he went A.W.O.L. (absent without leave). A wife who abandons her husband is A.W.O.L. and won't receive any rewards from God.

There's No Greater Role Than Being a Homemaker

I read about a young Christian lady many years ago who chose not to get married or have children. Instead, she opted to work as the lifelong secretary for an evangelist. A doctor had proposed to her for marriage, but she turned him down. I personally don't like that at all. In fact, it bothers me a lot. That well-known preacher was married with a wife at home for companionship, but he allowed his young attractive secretary to forgo a happily married life with children and grandchildren.

After diligently working for that evangelist for over 40 years, the elderly preacher died when his secretary was 65 years old. She spent the last 27 years of her life all alone, with no children and no grandchildren. That selfish evangelist has six children and 28 grandchildren. In my humble opinion, God did not create a young woman to be the lifelong secretary for a preacher. I truly feel sorry for that secretary. I'm sure that she would disagree, but that is how I feel.

Call me whatever you want dear reader, but I am old fashioned and biblical in my mindset. I tell people that I am as narrow-minded as the inspired King James Bible. I firmly still believe in 2026 that a woman's place is in the home.

According to the BBC, women in the workplace, particularly those who achieve promotions, are statistically more likely to experience divorce compared to their male counterparts. This phenomenon is attributed to the stress and changing dynamics in relationships that arise from shifts in economic and social roles. No wonder the Bible calls career females “turned aside after Satan.” The inspired Word of God uses some powerful language that is no doubt highly offensive to feminists today. According to the Wheatley Institute in Utah, married mothers with children are TWICE as likely to be “VERY HAPPY” than single childless women.

God Uses Only Bad People

1st Corinthians 1:25-29, “Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: That no flesh should glory in his presence.”

I heard a life changing sermon today by Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001)...

The Tragic End Of 'Queen' Frontman Freddie Mercury

noreply@blogger.com (David J. Stewart) — Sun, 26 Apr 2026 05:58:29 +0000

1st John 2:22-23, “Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also.”

Rock band 'Queen' frontman Freddie Mercury (real name: Farrokh Bulsara) sadly died of A.I.D.S. in 1991 at only age 45. Mercury had homosexual lovers all round the world. Even more tragic is that Freddie Mercury almost assuredly died in his sins without Jesus Christ...

Freddie Mercury’s Family Faith: The Ancient Religion of Zoroastrianism

by Vasudha Narayanan | November 3, 2018

Professor of Religion, University of Florida

In the Freddie Mercury biopic, “Bohemian Rhapsody,” there’s a scene in which a family member scolds Mercury.

“So now the family name is not good enough for you?”

“I changed it legally,” Mercury responds. “No looking back.”

It might come as a surprise to some that Freddie Mercury was born Farrokh Bulsara. He came from a Parsi family that had roots in India and he was a Zoroastrian by faith.

In the world religion courses I teach at the University of Florida, we discuss Zoroastrianism.

Fleeing religious persecution from Muslims in Persia sometime between the seventh and 10th centuries, the Zoroastrians settled in India, where they came to be called “Parsis.”

Like Freddie Mercury, they worked to integrate into their new surroundings. Yet they also stayed true to the values, beliefs, and practices of their religion, which many scholars say had an influence on Christianity, Islam, and Judaism.
A precursor for Christianity?

The Zoroastrian faith is one of the world’s oldest religions, one that could date back as far as 1200 B.C.

Zoroaster, a prophet who lived in modern-day Iran, is viewed as the founder of Zoroastrianism. READ MORE

The inspired Word of God is very clear that there is only ONE WAY to the Father, which is through faith in His only begotten (biological) Son, Jesus Christ. John 14:6, “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” The Father's will concerning redemption is that every human being rest in Christ's sacrificial death on the cross, burial and resurrection (the Gospel) as full payment for our sins (1st Corinthians 15:1-6). There is no other way to Heaven (Acts 4:10-12).

In a bizarre 1973 song titled, “Jesus,” the band Queen (formed in London in 1970) sing the lyrics: “All going down to see the Lord Jesus.” Talk about strange and confusing! In itself, that song in no way indicates what the individual band members believed concerning the afterlife. Legendary Queen guitarist Brian May (born 1947) had this to say about the mysterious song...

“Freddie was obviously born a Parsi into the Zoroastrian faith, but he also attended a school in Zanzibar which I believe was a Christian school," Brian May told Mojo magazine. "The workings of Freddie's mind were interesting and sometimes obscure. I don't know where his lyrics for Jesus came from anymore than I know where 'Bohemian Rhapsody' came from.” SOURCE

We have no public statements from Freddie Mercury to lead us to believe anything other than that he perished in his false Zoroastrian religion. John 6:40, “And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.” Jesus because Queen released a song called “Jesus” in 1973, eighteen years before his premature death caused by his sodomite deathstyle, doesn't mean he was a Christian.

In Queen's 1975 famous song, “Bohemian Rhapsody,” Freddie Mercury writes in the lyrics: “Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me, for me!” That's no different than the band members of Black Sabbath all wearing cross necklaces. So also did Ozzy Osbourne wear cross necklaces throughout his Satanic career of glorifying sin, shame and the Devil. The Devil's crowd do this deliberately to confuse young people. Satan is the author of confusion.

During U.S. President Joe Biden's 4-year reign of debauchery, incompetence, shame and wickedness, the U.S. federal government strongly promoted demonic transgendered confusion in public schools nationwide. I shudder and cringe to think what evils the Democrats will return our nation to when they retake the White House in a few years. All that Diversity, Equality and Inclusivity (DEI) Satanic garbage is coming back, I assure you. Our children deserve better! God deserves better!

In a 2022 book titled, “The Stone Age: Sixty Years of the Rolling Stones,” by music journalist Lesley-Ann Jones, she reveals that The Rolling Stones homosexual frontman Mick Jagger had ungodly sexual flings with band guitarist Keith Richards, and former guitarist David Bowie. That is gross and sickening! If you don't think homosexuality is gross, you are not right with God. I noticed many years ago that even the heathen world are embarrassed by sodomites, so they will often refer to a homosexual like Mick Jagger as being “bisexual.”

The word homosexual is much more embarrassing than bisexual, because even the heathen world thinks there's something wrong with a homosexual man who doesn't still like women. The issue arises because of different understanding of the term homosexual. Technically, a “homosexual” is someone who only has sex with men, but to most people a “homosexual” simply refers to someone who has sex with their own gender.

In truth, all bisexuals are homosexuals with all the negative and shameful stigma that should go along with that sinful designation. There has been a Satanic agenda at work for the past half century that is trying to remove the stigma, shame and negative implications of being a homosexual. In short, those wicked reprobates are trying to change the laws of nature. ...

Romans 1:24-27, “Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.”

Please understand dear reader that I do not hate anybody. I believe homosexuals can still be saved, and that God loves them unconditionally. Christ died for all sinners (1st John 2:2). God hates the sin, not the sinner. We should never bash the homosexual community, but Bible preachers should preach against the sin of homosexuality, just as he must expose all sins. 1st Timothy 5:20, “Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear.”

It is not my place as a child of God to condemn anybody. James 4:12, “There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou that judgest another?” The Bible DOES teach us to judge as believers, but to judge righteous judgment. John 7:24, “Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.” That is to say, our opinions should always be brought into line (agreement) with the inspired Word of God. Any opinion that goes against God's opinion is heresy.

My heart goes out to Freddie Mercury, because unless there was a miraculous death bed conversion, he went to burn in Hell forever. John 8:24, “I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.”

The inspired King James Bible teaches in 2nd Peter 3:9, “The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” God does not want even the worst sinner on the planet to spend eternity suffering in a burning furnace in Hell. God wants all humans to repent (i.e., change our mind) from the sin of unbelief, to believing on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ (Acts 16:30-31). That is the only means to be born again.

Please understand that I didn't write this blog to cast a negative reflection upon Freddie Mercury, despite the fact that he lived a Sodomistic reckless life of open wickedness and disregard for God his Creator. I wrote this ministry blog in hope of reaching YOU dear friend for Christ. If you have never been born again, then please do so now before it is too late.

It is too late for Freddie, wherever he went in eternity, but it's not too late for you dear reader. At the heathen world's funerals, they always foolishly assume that “he's in a better place now” or “she's in a better place now,” with total disregard for the Holy Scripture. What saith the Scripture? Revelation 20:15, “And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.” Please make sure that you've been born again.

The Utter Hypocrisy Of Evangelist Scott Pauley

noreply@blogger.com (David J. Stewart) — Sat, 25 Apr 2026 06:30:00 +0000

Acts 15:7-9, “And when there had been much disputing, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Men and brethren, ye know how that a good while ago God made choice among us, that the Gentiles by my mouth should hear the word of the gospel, and believe. And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as he did unto us; And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.”

The Apostle Peter realized that there is no difference between how the Gentiles and Jews get saved. We all get saved the same way. Peter and Paul preached the same Gospel.

I heard a podcast sermon today by Dr. Scott Pauley titled: 'Everybody Gets Saved The Same Way,' in which he asserts the biblical truth that “everybody gets saved the same way,” which he says is “through simple faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.” Bravo, I agree! Here is Dr. Scott Pauley's Statement of Faith. He seems correct on salvation, although he fails to define what the Gospel is.

And then I noticed that Dr. Pauley is shamefully scheduled to preach at the convocation during August 30th through September 2nd of 2026 at Pensacola Christian College (PCC). Well, we have a big problem! We have a very big problem because in fact, PCC preaches multiple DIFFERENT counterfeit plans of salvation. ...

Four Different Plans Of Salvation At Pensacola Christian College: RUN From That Evil Place!

Here is one of their corrupt plans of salvation...

Damnable Heresy At Pensacola Christian College

I live in the city of Pensacola. In my mailbox in 2023 I found an envelope from Campus Church with my address and the words “To Our Neighbor” on it. I opened the envelope and inside I found a booklet of John & Romans. The booklet has 64 pages in it. The PCC Campus Church logo is printed on the front cover. I was shocked on page 60 when I read PCC's counterfeit plan of salvation. What I am about to show you is straight from Satan dear reader:

“REPENTANCE — Now is the time to turn from your sin and embrace God. The act of turning away from sin is called 'repentance.' This word implies an inward decision to follow and obey God's will instead of your self-serving sins. It means changing your mind about sin and seeing it as something that grieves God. The Bible says that God patiently waits for all people to make this decision.” [emphasis added]

SOURCE: “John & Romans,” Campus Church at Pensacola Christian College, p. 60

To make matters even worse, on page 62 of the “John & Romans” booklet, Campus Church tells the reader that to be saved you must:

“I repent of my sins. I realize that sin is something that God hates and I no longer want to hold onto sinful bad habits in my life.” [emphasis added]

SOURCE: “John & Romans,” Campus Church at Pensacola Christian College, p. 62

Oh My! Folks, this is NOT part of the Gospel which the Apostle Paul preached in 1st Corinthians 15:1-4...

1st Corinthians15:1-4, “Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.”

There you have it! The “Gospel” is the “GOOD NEWS” that Jesus Christ DIED on a cross for our sins, He was BURIED and after three days He physically RESURRECTED from the dead. In Paul's Gospel (which Paul said he received directly from Jesus in Galatians 1:12), did you see anything that reads: “follow and obey God's will instead of your self-serving sins.” No, that is not what Paul taught. So why is PCC and their Campus Church promoting this filth?

Do you still think I bumped my head? Folks, what you've just read is NOT the Gospel of free grace. It is a perversion of God's grace! PCC is distributing this garbage throughout the city of Pensacola, horribly misleading people concerning what they must do to get to Heaven. Part of God's simple plan of salvation does NOT involve turning away from your sinful bad habits! Look inside the Campus Church booklet for yourself, at these photos that I took...

Damnable Heresy At Pensacola Christian College

I've been exposing the cult at Bob Jones University (BJU) since 2014, and now I have been exposing the cult at Pensacola Christian College (PCC) since 2021. By God's grace, I will continue to expose these wicked organizations. And now, by God's grace, I need to expose Dr. Scott Pauley for wickedly bidding Godspeed to these devils at PCC who masquerade as Christians. PCC are arrogant, self willed, have huge egos and simply cannot be reasoned with. 2nd Thessalonians 3:2, “And that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men: for all men have not faith.”

Having faith in a counterfeit plan of salvation is not faith in the Gospel. Why does Scott Pauley wickedly bid Godspeed to these fools, when from his Statement of Faith he clearly does not believe you must turn away from your sinful bad habits to get to Heaven? The only answer that I can logically see is THE LOVE OF MONEY, and the PRESTIGE of being invited to preach at a large religious institution like PCC; but make no mistake dear reader, PCC are pulling on the same rope as the Devil. What PCC is teaching and promoting today does NOT agree with what the inspired King James Bible teaches. Jesus warned everyone in Matthew 7:15, “Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.”

Why does not Scott Pauley and his wife separate from these ungodly FALSE PROPHETS!!! 2nd John 1:11, “For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.” It couldn't be more clear to me that making money is their first priority (both PCC and Scott Pauley). I couldn't find a plan of salvation visible on Dr. Scott Pauley's website, but he has some big “Store” and “Give” buttons at the top of his website. Figures! What saith the Scripture? ...

Romans 16:17-18, “Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.”

Hey, I'm just going by what I see. Where is the clear Gospel on Pauley's ministry website? I mean, he makes the “Store” and “Give” buttons very obvious at the top. Why no Gospel? I am so sick and tired or today's professed Christians living for the almighty dollar! Since by God's grace I began my Jesus-is-Savior.com website ministry 24 years ago (this month) in 2002, I have never received a single penny. I have had countless people try to give me money, but I have humbly refused it every time with thanks.

By their tolerance of false doctrine, false gospels and false prophets they indict themselves! It is wickedness to knowingly bid Godspeed to anyone who perverts the Gospel truth. Wicked PCC leadership and their ungodly pastors (Jeff Redlin and Timothy Zacharias) have blood on their hands for perverting the Gospel of free grace! RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS!!!

PCC's $175,000,000 annual income won't protect them on Judgment Day when they are held accountable by God almighty for damning men's souls to Hell with a FALSE GOSPEL.

And as if that wasn't bad enough, Pastor Jeff Redlin at PCC's Campus Church even has his own exclusive COUNTERFEIT plan of damnation! What in the world is wrong with these people at PCC? You'd think they'd get together and decide once and for all what they actually believe and preach. I mean, folks, get on the same page at least! They've got at least four different conflicting plans of salvation at PCC. This is so shameful and utterly pathetic what is going on at PCC and their Campus Church. SHAME on Scott Pauley and his wife for supporting this crap! SHAME on Dr. Pauley for agreeing to speak at their upcoming 2026 Convocation at PCC. SHAME! I said SHAME!!! Call me what you will, I am just making an honest observation as a fundamentalist Bible believing Christian and telling THE TRUTH!

Dear reader, RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS!!! The very fact that PCC has multiple conflicting plans of salvation floating around in their camp shows just how disorganized, divided, apostate and contemptible their institution has become in 2026. You couldn't make this stuff up!

Dr. Scott Pauley and his wife are shameful neo-evangelicals, who like PCC, despise fundamentalist preachers like Pastor Jack Hyles and myself. When I moved to Pensacola in 2021 and visited PCC's Campus Church, their senior clown pastor Jeff Redlin treated me like garbage. He ignored me for 10 days when I kindly emailed him with some questions. When I kindly confronted him after a Sunday morning service about it, he brushed me off.

When I respectfully told Mr. Redlin (who gets paid over $100,000 a year) that he made me feel like “garbage,” that ungodly dingleberry said “that is your global view.” In other words, I am garbage according to Jeff Redlin. Well see what God thinks about that! I had made the sincere mistake of telling Pastor Redlin that I am a grateful graduate of Hyles-Anderson College, which evidently was worse that releasing putrid gas in his face. You see, there has been a rift for over 40 years between the Hyles-Anderson College and the PCC camp over the inspiration of the King James Bible (PCC denies that we have a perfect inspired Bible today, but Dr. Jack Hyles and myself think that we do in the King James Bible). Without saying a negative word to offend him in 2021, Pastor Redlin had it in for me, counting me as the enemy for merely having graduated from Hyles-Anderson College. SHAME Mr. Redlin, SHAME! Contrariwise, I was very nice to him.

Since that time God has shown me how wicked PCC is today. And by the way, I have been wickedly banned in writing since August 2, 2022 by Jeff Redlin from every attending Campus Church again. Real great people, huh? I wouldn't let my cockapoo dog take a dump on their lawn at PCC, lest my dog get contaminated by that hateful religious cult. Like Hollywood, PCC fall all over themselves with self praise, self glorification and self honor, but it is a false sense of pride to be sure. They cannot even come to agree on which version of their Gospel is right.

As I mentioned earlier, Dr. Scott Pauley preached a sermon titled: 'Everybody Gets Saved The Same Way.' I fully agree. So, then why is Dr. Pauley bidding Godspeed to PCC? They preach multiple different conflicting plans of salvation, which is alarming for a so-called “Bible college.” PCC has changed for the worse since they opened their doors in 1974. Sadly, today Pensacola Christian College has become more secular than Christian. If you hurry you can enroll in their new engineering classes to help save America!

I cannot and do not recommend Evangelist Scott Pauley. RUN from this man and his ecumenical ministry that wickedly hobnobs with the accursed neo-evangelical cult at Pensacola Christian College. The accuracy of the Gospel is no trifle matter to be glibly dismissed. Dr. Pauley has no earthly business speaking at PCC this coming August and September in 2026, sinfully bidding Godspeed to their damnable false doctrine. 2nd John 1:11, “For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.”

God Cares About The Outside As Much As The Inside

noreply@blogger.com (David J. Stewart) — Fri, 24 Apr 2026 07:00:00 +0000

Proverbs 7:10, “And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart.”

God wants the OUTSIDE to show, but He wants the outside shows to be on the INSIDE. God wants both the inside and outside to be consistent. There is a hypocrisy about just wanting the inside to be right, but not the outside. If either the inside or the outside don't coincide, there is hypocrisy.

Hypocrisy has to barrels to the gun. There are two types of religious hypocrites:

The man who is seemingly righteous on the outside, but on the inside is unrighteous. He is acting out something that he is not.
The man who has righteousness on the inside, but he doesn't show it on the outside. He is deep on the inside, but doesn't say it.

HYPOCRISY is when people get the wrong impression about who you are. God is just as concerned about the OUTSIDE, as He is about the INSIDE.

Liberals say, “We should accept a man as he is.” Okay, but how do we know what he is if it doesn't show? If God is not concerned about the outside, then why does He spend so much time in the Holy Bible talking about the outside? The outside conveys to others what we are. The inside should measure up to the outside, and vise versa. Either without the other is just as much hypocrisy. If a pastor's wife wears pants to look like a harlot, but she is not a harlot, she is a hypocrite! God is concerned by what you wear ladies.

Romans 12:1-2, “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”

Notice the word “bodies.” The word “conformed” (Greek: suschēmatizō) means “fashion.” Do not put the clothing of this wicked world upon your BODY! God is concerned about how we dress, how we appear and how we wear our hair.

No group negatively influenced a generation with the impact as did the wicked Beatles in the 1960's. They promoted fornication, revolution, substance abuse, communism, false religion and rebellion. The Beatles single-handedly turned a generation away from Christianity. Sir Paul McCartney boasted on national TV on The David Letterman Show of having their manager bring them two prostitutes each, to their hotel rooms while performing in Las Vegas. That is evil! Proverbs 14:9, “Fools make a mock at sin: but among the righteous there is favour.”

I am going to go to seed as a fundamentalist King James Bible preacher in this matter of women wearing their wicked pants. A Christian lady ought not wear pants in public. Ladies, conceal don't reveal! 1st Corinthians 6:19, “What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.” Jesus paid for our sins with His precious blood. We belong to God!

Now, we know that nothing is owed on our behalf in exchange for the free gift of eternal life. God offers salvation as a completely free gift to whosoever wants it. All you need to do to have eternal life is simply by faith (taking God at His written Word) accept Christ's sacrifice on the cross as full payment for your sins, believing that Jesus was buried, but then three days later He physically ressurected from the dead. This is 'THE GOSPEL' (1st Corinthians 15:1-6).

It is just as weird and wrong in God's sight for a woman to put on a pair of pants, as it would be for a man to put on a dress. If it is wrong (and it is) for men to wear dresses (women's attire), then it is equally wrong for women to put on men's clothes. We've all got to face God someday, and we all should desire to please our Creator.

Romans 14:10-12, “But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.” By the way, “judge thy brother” in Verse 10 forbids condemning each other on a personal basis, but this does not apply to the preacher in the pulpit who is exposing sin. It is every preacher's duty to PREACH THE WORD, which includes rebuking sin. 1st Timothy 5:20, “Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear.” Some people like to wrest the Holy Bible in a wicked attempt to justify their sinning. Outside of the pulpit I am a dirty sinner just like you and anybody else, but inside the pulpit I am a soldier for Christ fighting the good fight of faith.

Activist Jerry Rubin Told The Truth

Jerry Clyde Rubin (1938–1994) was an American social activist, anti-war leader, and counterculture icon during the 1960s and early 1970s. Jerry Rubin said that long hair was started by the hippies as a statement of their revolution! The phrase "everywhere we go our hair tells people where we stand" reflects Jerry Rubin's belief in the power of personal expression and appearance as a form of political statement. Rubin was known for using unconventional methods, including his appearance, to convey his anti-establishment views during the 1960s counterculture movement.

“Young kids identify short hair with authority, discipline, unhappiness, boredom, rigidity, hatred of life - and long hair with letting go. Wherever we go, our long hair tells people where we stand on Vietnam, Wallace, campus disruptions, dope. We're living commercials for the revolution. Long hair is the beginning of our liberation from the sexual oppression that underlies the whole military society.” [emphasis added] SOURCE

Need I say more? All you ungodly pastor's wives who wear your worldly pants, you are a WALKING COMMERCIAL FOR FEMINISM!!! You are a walking commercial for sexual liberation, depravity and immodesty. GET RIGHT WITH GOD FAMILY BAPTIST CHURCH IN PENSACOLA!!! Their wicked leaders actually kicked me and my wife out of their church in June of 2025 over the issue of modesty. They found my fundamentalist website ministry and it greatly offended them. They are ungodly neo-evangelicals and I am a God-fearing fundamentalist! They despise me for it! They hate me without a cause for my beliefs. They should listen to Jerry Rubin if they don't believe me...

“Young kids identify short hair with authority, discipline, unhappiness, boredom, rigidity, hatred of life - and long hair with letting go.” SOURCE

Isn't that something? The same exact thing can be said about women wearing pants. The ungodly heathen world has more Horsesense than neo-evangelical Christians today! Without speaking a single word, a woman wearing pants declares her female liberation, rebelling against God's high moral standards. It matters how we dress, look and behave!

The first thing long-haired hippies say is, “Well Jesus had long hair!” No, He didn't! Did you see the Kodak camera that someone used to photograph Jesus? No, I didn't think so. Some ungodly long-haired artist painted Jesus with long hair. When African American artists paint Jesus, they portray Him as being dark skinned. NO ONE knows what Jesus looked like, but if He wore long hair, the Apostle Paul said it would have been shameful (1st Corinthians 11:14-15). Leonardo Da Vinci painted Jesus with short hair, and so did Michelangelo. All Roman statues and busts of their emperors show them with SHORT HAIR.

Furthermore, some people claim that like Samson Jesus took a Nazarite vow. I mean, Jesus was from Nazareth, right? We know that Jesus could not have taken a Nazarite vow because He drank grape juice, and Samson was forbidden to drink grape juice his entire life as part of his Nazarite vow. Jesus did not take a Nazarite vow. Jesus had short hair.

Jerry Rubin nailed it, the OUTSIDE matters! Everywhere you go ladies, you are a walking commercial for the Devil when you wear pants, bikinis, halter tops and short skirts. Everywhere you go, your immodest attire tells people where you stand! And they know that I am right at Family Baptist Church in Pensacola, which is why they felt convicted and kicked us out of their worldly social club. Both pastors' Brad and his Dad Bobby Moffett's wives wear pants. SHAME!

In the 45 months that I attended Family Baptist Church, I never once mentioned anything about my beliefs concerning women wearing pants, because what they do is none of my business. I am a gentleman. But as a fundamentalist Bible preacher I take a biblical stand on social media against Christian females wearing pants in public, and it ate them like cancer. My very presence in their so-called “church” was like God showing up, which made them feel guilty. It wasn't about me, it was about them because they were living in sin. Listen dear reader, if you live godly in Christ Jesus the world (and worldly churchgoers) will persecute you (2nd Timothy 3:12). Neo-evangelicals HATE fundamentalists!!!

Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001) said the same thing during the worst attack against his ministry in 1989...

“This isn't over Jack Hyles, this is over fundamentalism! These are evangelicals fighting fundamentalists—that's what it's all about; and their effort is to destroy Hyles-Anderson College. Over my dead body they'll destroy Hyles-Anderson College; and their effort is to destroy the First Baptist Church of Hammond, Indiana; and I'll go to the finish before I'll let it happen! That's what's going on!” —Dr. Jack Hyles, “Weathering The Storm!”

I have been sinfully kicked out of the last few churches that I've attended, because they are wicked neo-evangelicals and my fundamentalist website ministry woefully offended them. Those shameful churches are; namely, the Harvest Baptist Church on Guam, Campus Church at Pensacola Christian College, Smyrna Baptist Church in Pensacola and Family Baptist Church in Pensacola. God alone will be their Judge! I have faithfully told THE TRUTH! All four of the disgraced churches that I've just mentioned preach the Devil's lie of Lordship Salvation!!!

It is becoming almost impossible anymore to find a decent church to attend. They're all wrong on repentance and therefore, the Gospel. They have low moral standards. The music they bring into the church is worldly and lame at best. The uncaring attitudes of their pastors and their wives is shameful. There is little genuine love for truth or people in today's dead churches!

Dear reader, God cares about the OUTSIDE just as much as He does the INSIDE, and He cares about the INSIDE just as much as the OUTSIDE. Let us strive not to be HYPOCRITES!

Romans 12:1-2, “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”

I have written this blog while listening to Dr. Jack Hyles' 1971 sermon titled: 'Should Men Have Long Hair?' I thank God for Brother Hyles and every fundamentalist Bible preacher like him who stands for truth, ethics and righteousness. Thank you for reading my ministry blog.

Matthew 8:16-17 Does Not Guarantee Physical Healing

noreply@blogger.com (David J. Stewart) — Thu, 23 Apr 2026 13:59:00 +0000

Matthew 8:16-17, “When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick: That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.”

Someone sent me this ridiculous video today after reading my article about my chronic neck pain, burning nerves and bodily afflictions...

This Prayer in Matthew DESTROYS Every Sickness (Pray This Daily)

(THIS VIDEO IS FALSE DOCTRINE!!!)

Kindly, this video is Charismatic junk theology. The Apostle Paul who once healed the sick in the power of Jesus lost his power by the end of the New Testament. 2nd Timothy 4:20, “Erastus abode at Corinth: but Trophimus have I left at Miletum sick.” So, it isn't always God's will to heal the sick. Healing is not always guaranteed.

The saint's body won't be redeemed until the Rapture. Romans 8:22-23, “For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.”

Matthew 8:16-17 does not guarantee healing for everyone; it shows that Jesus healed many during His time, but it does not promise that all will be healed today. The understanding of healing in this context is often debated, with many believing it refers more to spiritual healing than physical healing.

The creator of this video ignores John 15:24, “If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.” Jesus did works (miracles) that NONE OTHER MAN DID to confirm His Messiahship. No saint has this power today. We can influence and reach far more people with the Gospel than Jesus did, and in that sense do greater works than Christ did, but NO ONE today can heal amputees, raise the dead or empty hospitals of the sick.

John 15:24, “But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.”

One day at the Rapture, Jesus will give every born again saint a resurrected immortal body, fashioned like unto His glorified body (Philippians 3:21; 1st Corinthians 15:51-58). Kindly said, what this video is horribly teaching is dangerous, offering false hope to people who are sick, suffering in pain and hurting. Suffering is as much a part of the Christian life as salvation itself. It is God's will for us to suffer in this earthly life...

Philippians 1:29-30, “For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake; Having the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now hear to be in me.”

We've got enough Benny Hinn nuts in the world who offer false hope to his victims. The 700 Club have been raking in trillions of dollars for decades, using Satanic clairvoyance through the television to offer false hope of healing to their millions of victims. Those evil money hungry scammers all belong in prison! They are already damned of God according to 2nd Peter 2:1-3.

In this heretical video, it is very wrong for the narrator to lead viewers to pray a prayer assuming that God will automatically heal you because you commanded God to do it. No Scripture permits this. Praying such nonsense is optimism, not biblical faith. Faith is humbly asking God to remove your thorn in the flesh, but if it is not God's will to do so, you won't be healed. James 5:14-16 teaches that the prayer of faith shall heal the sick, but we know by comparing Scripture with Scripture that this passage does not guarantee bodily healing.

The Bible is full of people who died premature deaths (Rachael, David, John the Baptist, James at age 40, David and Bathsheba's baby, Trophimus, et cetera). Granted, the redemptive suffering of Jesus at Calvary is the foundation and source of every blessing from God, whether spiritual or physical. It’s a serious mistake to think every blessing Christ secured through his redemptive suffering will be ours at this present time.

All such blessings shall indeed be ours, but let us not expect—far less demand—that we now experience the fullness of blessings God clearly reserved for Heaven in the age to come (Revelation 7:15–17; 21:3–4). Are these healings, performed by Jesus in Matthew 8:16-17, the result of the atonement? Yes. To whatever degree we experience healing in this life, it is the fruit of Christ’s atoning death. But it doesn’t necessarily follow that where there is atonement there is always guaranteed immediate healing.

This passage in Matthew 8:16-17 affirms that whatever healing occurs is indeed a result of Christ’s redemptive work. But it doesn’t necessarily mean that healing will always occur now as a result of that work. This is proper Bible exegesis that I have given you dear reader. Physical healing is not always guaranteed in this temporal lifetime on earth.

Certainly, we should never cease to pray for the sick to be healed. We should also give thanks that there is bodily healing for us through, or because of, the atonement of Jesus Christ. And we should acknowledge that whatever healing and health we experience now is a blessing that flows from Calvary’s cross. But let us also remember there are certain blessings God intends to bestow in their perfect fullness only when the Lord Jesus Christ returns.

Thank you for reading my ministry blog. Jesus is precious!!!

Hillary Clinton Wickedly Blames Christianity For Division

noreply@blogger.com (David J. Stewart) — Wed, 22 Apr 2026 05:05:00 +0000

Proverbs 29:27, “An unjust man is an abomination to the just: and he that is upright in the way is abomination to the wicked.”

Bill and Hillary Clinton are two devils. The Clinton Chronicles. People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. Bill and Hillary Clinton have a sordid history of debauchery, hundreds of murders of people closely associated with them (including Vince Foster), and evil they've been involved with beyond belief (e.g., Mena, Arkansas, drug trafficking). Who is a contemptible witch like Miss Clinton to blame Christian white men for America's problems? ...

Hillary Clinton Says Religion Partly Fueling America’s Division, Weeks After Charlie Kirk's Death

September 25, 2025 - by Nayana Mena

Former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has sparked controversy after partly criticizing religion during an appearance on MSNBC’s Morning Joe, just two weeks after the assassination of evangelical leader Charlie Kirk.

Clinton suggested that conservative white men who hold traditional values are contributing to national division.

“The idea that you could turn the clock back and try to recreate a world that never was—dominated by, let’s say it, white men of a certain persuasion, a certain religion, a certain ideology—is just doing such damage to what we should be aiming for,” she told hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski. SOURCE

Unreal. You couldn't make this stuff up. If anyone is trying to save this country from utter destruction, it is fundamentalist Christian preachers, which it just so happens most of whom are white men. Hillary is clearly a liberal hateful racist!

In case you haven't figured it out yet, Miss Clinton is blaming people like Pastor Jack Hyles for the division in the United States. What saith the Scripture? 1st Kings 18:21, “And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word.” Men of God always bring division, because the battle between good and evil still persists in the universe. Hillary Clinton just wants the world to become evil, her way.

I thank God that there are still decent, caring, responsible, God-fearing Christians on the planet who refuse to stand idle while our children are preyed upon by lunatics, homosexual perverts, abortionist murderers, feminist rebels, sexually degenerate Satanists in the music industry and all the hordes of Hell beneath.

In case you haven't noticed dear reader, it is now open season on white Christian males in the United States. We are being blamed for everything!

“It is always open season on Christian and on White folks because they are the group you can kick and you can get away with it. It is politically correct.” —Jack Kingston, U.S. Representative, Georgia

Unbelievably, Hillary Clinton cites “traditional values” as the enemy for dividing America. Why doesn't she blame the homosexualization of our children and culture?

Homosexuality Is Being Forced On Americans

In 1962, homosexuality's was a punishable crime in all 50 states, but since 2015 same-sex marriage is now permissible in all states by federal law. Our holy God hasn't changed (Malachi 3:6). Jesus Christ is still the same (Hebrews 13:8). The Church hasn't changed. Local churches have certainly changed for the worse, but “the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth” hasn't changed (1st Timothy 3:15). These are the demons that Hillary Clinton blames for “division” in our nation today.

Interestingly, she doesn't blame the liberal heathen left for causing division. Oh no, she blames the conservative Christian right! From Hillary's ungodly perspective, the right who adhere to “traditional values” is to blame. So, because we white folks who were born in the United States don't want illegal aliens flooding into our country, she blames us. And because we white folks who hold to “traditional values” don't want to see little precious humans slaughtered in the womb, she blames us. Hillary is a child of the Devil.

Proverbs 29:27, “An unjust man is an abomination to the just: and he that is upright in the way is abomination to the wicked.” Biblically, there cannot and never will be harmony between the wicked and the righteous. John Lennon's (1940-1980) silly 1971 song, “Imagine,” is a pipe dream, not reality. John ignores the reality that we live in a fallen world. He glibly dismisses the sinful human nature. Lennon's foolish lyrics portray a rosy world without a Heaven or Hell, without possessions, national borders or religion. ...

IMAGINE (1971)

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people living life in peace

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people sharing all the world, you

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will be as one

John Lennon couldn't even get along with three other band members! The Beatles broke up in 1970, with lawyers at each other's throats over money, and they all went their own selfish ways. So, John's ridiculous song was written while he was wearing rose-colored glasses.

Things Are Not As They Appear

American heroes like the late Charlie Kirk (1993-2025), and conservative Christians who are trying by God's grace to MAKE AMERICA GODLY AGAIN, are not the enemy Miss Clinton—you are! Bill and Hillary Clinton have railroad tankers of blood upon their murderous hands—from the “Black Cocaine” Columbian drug trafficking empire in Mena, to The Clinton Death List, to the Oklahoma City Bombing in 1995—these two thug gangsters are into evil way over their heads. Isaiah 14:9, “Hell from beneath is moved for thee to meet thee at thy coming: it stirreth up the dead for thee, even all the chief ones of the earth; it hath raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations.”

The real reason why our country is divided is that there has been a war between good and evil going on since the beginning of human civilization, and it will continue until time is no more. Proverbs 29:27, “An unjust man is an abomination to the just: and he that is upright in the way is abomination to the wicked.” The wacky Democrat left blame the Republicans on the right. And the corrupt Republicans blame the left. As far as I'm concerned, BOTH parties are corrupt. At election time you've got a choice between Globalist puppet A or puppet B.

Both Legs Are Marching Toward A New World Order

The American People Are Being Played Like A Violin

I've closely followed President Trump's accomplishments since he took office in 2025. Food prices are still sky high. Homelessness is still an epidemic problem. Our National Debt is still stuck in the stratosphere. But Israel is being freed from the threat of Iran. It seems that President Trump's primary purpose for taking office was to deal with Iran and further the agenda of the Globalist's in the Middle East. But don't take my word for it. Read what General Wesley Clark said in a 2005 interview with journalist Amy Goodman...

So, what is going on today with overthrowing Iran was actually plotted long before 911. Dr. Ron Paul also expressed his grave concerns over President Trump's warmongering against Iran. One thing is abundantly clear—there is a Luciferian Globalist agenda at work! The stage is now being prepared for the coming Man of Sin, the Antichrist!

There is nothing new under the sun. Isaiah 5:20, “Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!” Hillary Clinton is wickedly calling evil “good,” and good “evil.” White Christian men such as myself who are working diligently to bring America back to faith in God, righteousness and integrity are not the bad guys! We are not the evil ones Miss Clinton!

It is the heartless and murderous abortion crowd, who have zero compassion or regard for the life of another individual living human being in the womb, who are evil. It is the ungodly homosexual community and Hollywood, who have plotted for over the past half century to corrupt our children with pro-sodomite curriculum, entertainment and filth who are evil. It is wicked pastor's wives who defiantly wear their pants in public, setting a horrible example of low morals for the other females in the church, who are evil. Those ungodly pastor's wives are walking commercials for the Devil, showcasing immodesty!

Proverbs 24:19-20, “Fret not thyself because of evil men, neither be thou envious at the wicked; For there shall be no reward to the evil man; the candle of the wicked shall be put out.”

Jesus said these comforting words in John 16:33, “These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” I love those words from our dear Lord, God and Savior. Jesus said to “BE OF GOOD CHEER,” knowing that He is triumphantly risen!!!

Dear redeemed saint of God, we are on the winning side through faith in Jesus Christ! I am humbly glad to accept the accusation of causing “division” if it means taking a biblical stand against the wickedness of our perverse generation. Miss Clinton made her ungodly comments with ill intent, blaming Christians as if we are doing something terrible. No, we are obeying God's will in Psalms 94:16, “Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?”

The sad truth is that if Hillary had her evil way, tens of millions of illegal aliens would be allowed to stay in the United States and continue to steal our jobs, taxes and community safety. Countless American families are cursing President Joe Biden, begging almighty God to avenge their dead loved ones of the blood shed by the illegal immigrants that Joe Biden allowed to flood into our country. It didn't surprise me that Biden was promoted to the Satanic level of Master Freemason in January of 2025 after he departed from office. Biden did the evil bidding of Satan while in office, and they honored him for being a good puppet.

If Hillary had her evil way, abortion would still be legal in all states. She is a left-wing monster! As our text passage of Scripture from Proverbs 29:27 says, there can be no harmony between the righteous and the wicked, because we are an ABOMINATION to one another. Hillary is an abomination in my sight; I am an abomination in her sight. God alone will be our only Judge!

Tolerating Sin & Error Harden People's Hearts Toward Evil

noreply@blogger.com (David J. Stewart) — Tue, 21 Apr 2026 13:00:00 +0000

Hebrews 3:13, “But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.”

The problem is that the churches have tolerated falsehoods (e.g., fake Bibles, misunderstood repentance, Lordship Salvation, immodesty, Zionism, false prophets like John MacArthur) for so long, that these evils are no longer viewed as a threat. The more that sin and error are tolerated, the harder people's hearts become, and the less evil these things appear.

This is why few preachers cry aloud against the evils of abortion anymore, murder has become commonplace. This is why Christian women wear pants in public nowadays, immodesty has become commonplace. Since everyone is doing it, it's not considered a problem. Yet, the inspired Word of God still warns that the lusts of the flesh war against men's souls. 1st Peter 2:11, “Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul.”

Kindly, there's a group of Bob Jones graduates who once lived close to me, and the females wore sexy spandex while out walking their babies. They don't understand what that does to a man's soul, and they don't care because they're cowardly pastor, Marty Herron, didn't care either, so he didn't preach against it. When I attended the harvest Baptist Church on Guam in 2013-2014, Pastor Herron wickedly insulted me in front of two other people, by calling me “old school” when I mentioned in a passive friendly conversation that women ought not wear pants. No, Mr. Herron is not right with God. I am in God's school, not old school. It is a sin for women to expose their thighs and buttocks in public, and tight black spandex shows it all!!! I don't have a dirty mind, I have a man's mind! If you den that, you are a fool.

Women don't think like men and only ungodly females dress sensually. Tight spandex and blue-jeans are sensual, fleshly and sexually alluring. When a woman walks and bends over in pants, men get a show! When a man sees a woman clothed in pants he is tempted with lust, horribly so, and that wicked woman is causing a war in his soul, grieving his spirit if he is trying to live for the Lord. That is not God's love in her soul that disregards the war that men face today.

In fact, many women enjoy causing such lustful passions and sinful desires in men's souls, which is demonic!!! What one man may be able to handle, may cause another man who is weak to go sin horribly and commit a crime! His blood will be upon your hands, you wicked women who cause lasciviousness in men's souls by your whorish attire (Proverbs 7:10).

One of the things that I get criticizing for more than anything else is my preaching against women wearing pants. I am not just old-fashioned, I am God fashioned!!! Anything can be justified!!! Every sin imaginable can be justified if you really want to do so, but it is still sin in God's sight. In the Old Testament, the wicked Hebrews committed all manner of evil and claimed they were doing “God's will” (it sounds like America today)...

Jeremiah 7:9-10, “Will ye steal, murder, and commit adultery, and swear falsely, and burn incense unto Baal, and walk after other gods whom ye know not; And come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, We are delivered to do all these abominations?”

Yes, LORD, Christian women are wearing pants today. Our Baptist churches are using corrupt Bible PERversions, teaching wrong repentance and perverting the Gospel, promoting heretics like Ray Comfort and John MacArthur, holding a grudge, banning truth-tellers from church, setting their brother at nought and claiming all the whole that they are doing God's will. GET RIGHT WITH GOD YOU HEATHENS!!!

You never know what a man is struggling with in his soul. It is careless, selfish and failing to love one's neighbour as thyself, anytime an immature Christian woman wears pants in public. And SHUT UP with your wicked arguments—all your ungodly hypothetical scenarios trying to justify when a woman can wear pants—You little hussy brat, GET RIGHT WITH GOD!!!

I'm not trying to be unkind, I'm telling THE TRUTH! The average female churchgoer today walks with a chip on her shoulder when it comes to woman wearing pants, ready to defend her immodesty and lack of love for others. Sexual immorality is encouraged by with immodesty. Feminism is the rot of American society, which has crept into nearly every church today, including independent Baptist churches. What America needs is persecution!!! We need God's harsh judgment!!! We are an unthankful nation of spoiled brats!!!

The great need of the hour is preaching Bible preachers! By God's grace I am answering that call. Ezekiel 22:30, “And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none.” Where are the 7,000 today who have not bowed their knee to Baal? God can use one man, but He'll take volunteers. Thank you dear friend for reading my ministry blog.

“Dear Dr. John: Where Is My Bible?” by Herbert F. Evans

noreply@blogger.com (David J. Stewart) — Mon, 20 Apr 2026 02:44:00 +0000

The following documentation is a heated debate in the early 1970s between Dr. John R. Rice (1895-1980) and a courageous layman named Herbert F. Evans (born 1936, age 90) over the inspiration of the King James Bible. Tragically, Dr. Rice denied the inspiration of the KJB, but Herb Evans defended it with passion, as I also do in my ministry. Is there not a cause?

Herb Evans put this dispute into a convenient 17-page booklet titled: “Dear Dr. John, where is my Bible?,” which booklet's contents you are about to read. God bless Mr. Evans! ...

“Dear Dr. John: Where is my bible?”

PREFACE
This pamphlet is a reproduction of a written dispute between John R. Rice and a layman Christian because of an article in the December 15, 1972 Sword of the Lord. It is reproduced with the conviction that truly born again Bible believers, led by the Holy Spirit, have the ability to judge rightly, when Bible issues are brought before them. Only the original correspondence is duplicated and that without biased comments. You dear readers are the judges. The intent of the pamphlet is to expose the NASV, ASV, and RV (a rose by any other name) translations as corrupt translations and also to present a case for the Authorized Bible (King James) being the infallible Word of God. It is noteworthy that, to the date of printing, my last letter and telegram to Dr. Rice have not been answered. I extend my deepest appreciation and thanks to the following men:

David Otis Fuller, Wealthy St. at Eastern S.E., Grand Rapids, Michigan, Author of "Which Bible" & "NASV and K.J. Compared"
E.L. Bynum, 1911 34th St., Lubbock, Texas 79411 Author of "Why we reject this version" tract

Sword of the Lord article titled, “Why Divide His People Over Greek Manuscripts. They Cannot Know About?,” which was published on December 15, 1972 (p. 5)

Dear Brother Evans,

You were kind to write me September 25. Please forgive my delay in answering.

You asked about my opinion on which group of manuscripts used principally in the translation of the Scriptures—whether the group used by the king James Version or the additional manuscripts used in the more recent versions are most reliable.

I have read the books by Dr. Peter Ruckman and by David Otis Fuller. I do not believe the matter has the IMPORTANCE which they give to it.

The simple truth is that the more recently found MANUSCRIPTS, CODEX ALEPH, CODEX VATICANUS and others MAKE VERY LITTLE DIFFERENCE in the translations and NO DIFFERENCE whatever in the doctrine taught in the Scriptures [Note: for later reference]. I prefer and use the King James Versions of the Bible altogether in my preaching, in my devotions, and principally in my study. I have, for years, checked up with Scriptures in the American Standard Versions, that is, the 1901 version, and find it very valuable. And many of the best Bible teachers, including Dr. R. A. Torrey, and others more recent, have regarded it as the most accurate of all translations.

I think it a mistake to divide churches and bring dissension over questions as to whether Origen set out to pervert the Scriptures, for example, or whether Wescott and Hort were really liberals who intend to sabotage the Scriptures. I think they may have made mistakes, since they were human. I do not believe it is proper Christian attitude to pass judgement on people’s motives and to make radical accusations about things which we could not possibly know very well.

In actual practice I use and prefer the King James Version and think it ought to he used always in public services because more people are familiar with it. And certainly I do not believe in using the Revised Standard Version, the New English Version, the Good News for Modern Man all of which are modernistic. I do not like Phillips because it is a paraphrase, not reliable. I do not think we ought to regard the Amplified Version as a strict translation but more as a commentary. I have about seventeen English versions of the Bible, and I sometimes check many of them. I think it is sufficient for us to say we prefer the King James Version, that we have a GREAT RESPECT for the American Standard Version and not to divide people over other INCIDENTAL differences.

In Jesus’ name, yours,

(signed) John R. Rice

******************************************************************************
Dear Dr. Rice,

I have read your letter/article, "Why divide Gods people over Greek manuscripts," in the Sword of December 15, 1972. I have read the books you mentioned by Peter Ruckman. You emphasize what he has to say about the Greek, which I have yet to see refuted or challenged for scholarship or Biblical fidelity, but what about what he says about the plain English (and demonstrates) of the ASV. Is the fact that Acts 8:37 is missing— UNIMPORTANT? Is the fact that Joseph is rendered Jesus’ father in Luke 2:33 INCIDENTAL?

Is the fact that the blood is taken out of Col. 1:14 a cause for GREAT RESPECT? Why are the real issues and challenges concerning the subject never met as other controversial doctrines and subjects? Why so much evasion? Why the appeal to stop dividing God s people over the NASV when all of us didn’t bat an eyelash at dividing over the RSV. Is the deliberate hiding of the issues by many a move to protect the rank and file Christian from doubts about the Bible? I think the silence and weak arguments of those in influential position will do much more harm to weak Christians who could be told they have a Bible that has been both inspired and PRESERVED.

I have written you before and you said you MISPLACED my letter. You also said you were very busy, which I believe, but you have had time to answer modernists and apostates, and I think myself as a blood bought brother deserve as much consideration. I appreciate the Sword and hope that I can continue to have confidence in its fundamental and conservative stand.

Thank you in Christ,

Herbert F. Evans

Dear Brother Evans:

Your letter is before me. I am sorry you did not take to heart the article in the SWORD OF THE LORD. You did not think I had done any research on it and did not think it was worth your attention. I think you should be more careful about the matter than that.

You are scandalized that Acts 8:37 is missing in the American Standard Version of the Bible. I have before me four copies of the Greek New Testament. One is the Textus Receptus, or Received Text; one is the edition of Westcott and Hort; one put out by the British and Foreign Bible Society combining the work of Nestle, Tischendorf, Westcott and Hort, and Bernhard Weiss; one is the Nestle Text. In two of these editions, footnotes very carefully and give any variations with other widely accepted Greek manuscripts. The Received Text has Acts 8:37, so does Westcott and Hort. The other two omit it.

Out of more than 2,300 copies of the New Testament, all of the copies, of course, and usually copies of copies of copies, all copied by hand, now and again, not often, somebody made a MISTAKE in copying or some copyist ADDED a word of comment and it was later INCORPORATED into the text; so godly men, earnest students, with an enormous amount of labor are TRYING TO FIND the EXACT wording of the original Greek text.

Many think that Acts 8:37 was a GLOSS added by some copyists. The truth is, I think so, too. It is not like the rest of the Bible and it SEEMS to teach DIFFERENT on the plan of salvation. I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God is not enough to make one saved. Many people believe that Jesus is the Son of God and are not saved. I THINK it is a GLOSS. However, I DO NOT MIND it being in the King James Version of the Bible. If you want it, all right, but do not put yourself above all the godly men who work much harder on this than you and think it is not necessarily in the original text. To arbitrarily worship the King James translation and to slander everybody who differs is a sorry business.

In Luke 2:33 the Received Text says "Joseph and his mother”; all the other three Greek texts mentioned say "his father and mother.” Now, as I said, I like the King James Version. And, of course, I know that Joseph was not literally the father of Jesus. But, of course, also, everybody knows he was His foster father, His legal father, and acted as His father. And if in the original text it turns out that the word “father" was used here, that should not be disturbing to anybody who knows the Scriptures well. In every one of those New Testament copies, as everybody knows, the virgin birth and deity of Jesus Christ is very plainly laid out and could not be misunderstood. But if verse 33 in the original text called Joseph "his father and mother," then even in the King James Version verse 41 of the same chapter says, Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year.

And in verse 48 Mary said, “Behold, thy father and I have sought thee sorrowing." And in Luke 4:22, the people who had known Him nearly all His life said, "Is not this Joseph’s son?" However, these Scriptures do not mean that Joseph was literally and physically the father of Jesus but only that he was His foster father, His legal father, acting as His father.

And that is the way we use the term all the time. My daughter Elizabeth and her husband, Dr. Handford, have seven adopted children. All of them call Elizabeth "Mother" and call Dr. Handford "Dad." Another daughter of mine, Grace, and her husband, Rev. Allan MacMullen, have two adopted children. Both of them call them "Dad and Mother." They are not deceiving anybody, they are not lying; they are simply using accepted language with a general meaning and everybody understands it. Why make something else out of statements in the Bible when the Bible so expressly and repeatedly says that Jesus was born of a virgin? We are not supposed to think that here another Scripture means something else.

Now you may PREFER one rendering of the Greek text, selected out of some 2,300 manuscripts, with occasional differences. I do not know, except I do know the scholarship of good men who worked on this and if you were familiar with the field at all you would know that tremendous labors, study, scholarship and intensive efforts to find the true text has been carried on by a multitude of good men and you would not feel like calling such people crooks and perverts and infidels as Dr. Peter Ruckman does. Two of these different editions of the Greek New Testament leave out the word for blood in Colossians 1:14. The scholars SIMPLY DECIDED since many manuscripts did not have that term it was INSERTED BY A COPYIST who wanted to make it plain. However, the American Standard Version is as clear as it could possibly be on the atoning blood, salvation by faith in the shed blood of Jesus, and it is obvious there was no intention to change the doctrine nor do any despite to the blood of Jesus here.

You may PREFER to have the term blood put in that verse. Since it is everywhere taught in the Bible, and since there is not any clear evidence that it was here in the original manuscripts, then it DOESN’T MATTER TO ME. I reserve the right to differ with the American Standard Version. I do not have the right nor allow anybody else the right to presume that the translation was done in ignorance or spite or perversion or infidelity. One who thinks that simply doesn’t know enough about it to pass judgment.

Now, the PLAIN, SIMPLE TRUTH is that there are many places where you could QUESTION the translation of the King James Version also. Again I say I PREFER IT to any other translation, use it continually, but the translation is NOT INSPIRED. It is only the BIBLE ITSELF that is inspired.

One MISTRANSLATION of the King James Version in Revelation 22:14 would make salvation by works and it is obviously wrong. It says, “Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.” But the Bible certainly does not teach that anybody earns a right to Heaven by keeping the commandments. And that MISTRANSLATION is corrected in the American Standard Version and the translation there properly is, “Blessed are they that wash their robes, that they may have the right to come to the tree of life, and may enter in by the gates into the city." The Episcopalian translators there, who did not fully understand the doctrine of salvation by grace, evidently DID NOT CHECK the manuscripts carefully enough to get the translation right in the King James Version. [this is not a matter of translation but a matter of using the correct Greek Texts]

The King James Version in Acts 12:4 says, ". . . intending after Easter to bring him forth." But the word there in the Greek is "passover” not “Easter." And if you are familiar with the history you will know that there was not any Easter celebrated, the term was not even used, until long after New Testament times. In that case the translation WAS WRONG. They did not have any "Easter" in New Testament times. [Note: In 1973, we did not know that the prior English Bibles, for the most part, used “Easter” even to the degree of the “Jews’ Easter” and the “Easter lamb.” —Herb Evans]

Now, following a false teacher, a man with an angry disposition who split his own church, BROKE HIS OWN HOME [SLANDER?] and now, I HEAR, is in worse trouble— following him you have made a big issue about a doctrine not taught in the Bible at all, that the King James Version itself is the exact and inspired translation of the Bible. You don’t know enough to do that kind of teaching and anybody who goes against the scholarship of all the great Christians in the world without even decent respect and without considering all the study that has been done on it has no business dividing brethren and causing trouble in the churches.

In Jesus name,
yours, (signed) John R. Rice

Dear Dr. Rice:
Thank you for your letter of Feb. 2, 1973. I have read the "Sword" for over ten years and have recently ordered 2 racks of your booklets for our church here. Please understand I have no personal ax to grind with you. However, I must take issue with your article and letter of February 2, 1973. To begin, I am quoting some strong words from Spurgeon. In this way you cannot take occasion with me for slandering good men or putting myself above them.
"The approved method of the present carnival of unbelief is not to reject the Bible ALTOGETHER but, to RAISE DOUBTS as to PORTIONS of it, and questions as to the uniform inspiration of it as a whole. C.H.S.

"If the Book be not infallible, where shall we find infallibility? We have given up the Pope, for he has blundered often and terribly; but we shall not set up instead of him a horde of popelings fresh from college. Are these correctors of Scriptures infallible? ls it certain that our Bibles are not right, but that the critics must be so? Now, Farmer Smith, when you have read your Bible, and have enjoyed its precious promises, you will have tomorrow morning, to go down the street to ask the scholarly man at the parsonage whether this portion of the Scripture belongs to the inspired part of the Word or whether it is of dubious authority . . . We shall gradually be so bedoubted and be criticized that only a few of the most profound will know what is Bible and what is not, and they WILL DICTATE to the rest of us. I have no more faith in their mercy than in their accuracy . . . and we are fully assured that our old English version of the Scriptures is sufficient for plain men for all purposes of life, salvation, and goodness. We do not despise learning, but we will never say of culture or criticism, 'These be thy gods, O Israel.’" C.H.S.

These words of Spurgeon are my sentiments in general. As for specifics, I have divided your letter into five categories of appeal in order to better answer you:

your appeal to the scholarship of godly men
your appeal to errors in the King James Bible
your appeal to my issue not being Bible doctrine
your appeal to dismiss Ruckman's arguments because of his personality and his personal life
your appeal to following false teachers

1. Scholarship
Is it scholarly to say as you do, "Many think Acts 8:37 was a GLOSS added by some copyist? The truth is, I think so too." I never considered it scholarly to be believe what people THINK. I am Interested in what people KNOW.

Is it scholarly to say as you do, ". . . it SEEMS to teach a different plan of salvation?” This sounds like a contradiction of your article of December 15, 1972 where you say the codices "make VERY LITTLE DIFFERENCE in the translations and NO DIFFERENCE in the doctrine taught in the Scriptures." If It does teach a different plan of salvation, why would you say, ". . . however, I DO NOT MIND it being in the King James . . .”

I hope it worthy of your attention that Acts 8:37 is in Tyndale’s Bible, The Great Bible, The Geneva Bible, The Bishops’ Bible, and also Martin Luther’s Non-Episcopal Bible. Is it scholarly to say that “Episcopalian translators 'mistranslated’ Revelation 22:14,” when the text they used says, “poiountes tas entoias autou?" The Tyndale Bible, the Great Bible, the Geneva Bible, the Bishops Bible, the Rheims Bible, and Martin Luther’s Non-Episcopal Bible agree with the King James rendering? Are you putting yourself above all these scholars?

Is it scholarship when, “The scholars SIMPLY DECIDED since many manuscripts did not have that term it was inserted by a copyist?" I must agree it was a SIMPLE decision, but a scholarly one? No! What about the scholars before 1881 who left the blood in Colossians 1:14? Did scholarship begin in 1881? What about the scholars that disagree with your scholars? Do we now argue over whose scholars are the best, or the godliest, or who has the most on his side? The Thessalonicans were noble because they searched the Scriptures not because they searched the consensus of the scholars.

2. Errors in the King James Bible
I have already covered the supposed mistranslation of Rev. 22:14 and how it is found in the early English Bibles and Martin Luther s Bible. I doubt whether Martin Luther was an Episcopalian, and I doubt he "did not fully understand the doctrine of grace."

Some people might get the wrong idea about 1 Jn. 2:3, 4; 3:24, Rev. 12:17 and 14:12 which have similar language, but removing difficult Scripture is not the answer. Besides all this, you say the codices "make very little difference in the translations and no difference in the doctrines taught in the Scriptures,” which contradicts your statement, "One mistranslation of the King James Version in Revelation 22:14 would make salvation by works and is obviously wrong." Is salvation by works no difference in doctrine or little difference in doctrine?

Much of what you say in reference to Luke 2 and 4:22 is true, but you well know that there is a great deal of difference between Mary speaking in a practical vein as you illustrated, the people speaking according to their limited knowledge, and the NARRATIVE being changed from “Joseph” to “father,” when it has textual support and has been around for over 300 years. There is no-good reason to do this.

Your best point, I would say, would be in Acts 12:4 where"after Easter" is better rendered "after Passover." Passover is in the Received Text. However, are you not stretching your point here, as both words are used as a chronological reference to the same period of time. There is no idea of bunnies and eggs implied. If the best you can do is “Easter,” I remain unconvinced of your position. *
*Note: At this early date, I did not know that mostly all pre—King James English Bibles used “Easter” extensively, even to the point of the “Jews’ Easter” and the “Easter lamb.”

3. Issue is not a doctrine of the Bible
“You have made a BIG ISSUE about a doctrine NOT TAUGHT in the Bible.”
“. . . godly men . . . ARE TRYING TO FIND the exact wording of the original text.”
“Intensive efforts TO FIND the TRUE TEXT has been carried on by a multitude of good men.”
“. . .the TRANSLATION IS NOT INSPIRED. It is only the Bible ITSELF that is inspired.”

If I understand your quotes correctly, you are suggesting the following:

We still do not have the true text yet.
We still do not have an inspired, tangible Bible.
All we have is an uninspired translation and an inexact not quite true text.

All scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction . . . that the man of God may be THROUGHLY FURNISHED unto ALL good works. — 2 Tim. 3:16, 17

Would ALL, here, mean even judging the good work of translating? But according to you a translation cannot be inspired. A translation therefore is NOT PROFITABLE for doctrine nor correction, unless you first learn Greek. However, if we go to the trouble to learning Greek, we still do not have the TRUE TEXT or the EXACT WORDING, and we are still in trouble as only “INSPIRED SCRIPTURE” IS PROFITABLE.

4. Dismiss Ruckman’s arguments because of his personality and personal life
You appeal to Peter Ruckman’s personal life and personality to discredit and dismiss his teaching [even though Rice’s booklet on “Divorce” exonerates Dr. Ruckman]. I have no way of knowing the truth or falsity or circumstances of your charges [Later, I found out what his wife had done to him, which constituted grounds].

However, if what you say is true, the way that you say it, and we should dismiss his teaching concerning the ASV being a perversion, shall we also dismiss his teaching of salvation by faith in Jesus Christ or shall we just dismiss that which you disagree with him about??? Is not truth the truth no matter who teaches it? In your article and letter of February 2, 1973, I read your complaints regarding SLANDER, lack of brotherly love, and lack of right attitudes on the one hand, and I then read on the other hand about Fundamentalist NUTS and attacks [SLANDER] on Ruckman’s personal life, and I can’t help sensing a double standard somewhere.

5. Following false teachers
As far as your suggestion that I am following Peter Ruckman, you should be more careful as the convictions, which I expressed were mine, before I read Ruckman’s books. If you remember, I sent you correspondence that reflected my views dated April 1968 concerning the Dewey Beegle issue. The books I read by Peter Ruckman are "Manuscript Evidence" and "The Devil s Masterpiece, the NASV" printed in 1970 and 1972.

You neither defined Ruckman’s false teaching specifically nor refuted it from God’s Word the only authority we may use in correcting someone’s false doctrine (2 Tim. 3:16,17). I shall now name two false teachers to you. I will define their false teaching, and I will refute it.

The False Teacher: Dr. Hort
The False Teaching: "I have been persuaded for many years that Mary worship and Jesus worship have much in common in their causes and their results.”

The Refutation: Matt. 5:l0 and 1 Tim. 2:5

False Teacher #2: Dr. Wescott
False Teaching#2: "No one now, I suppose, holds the first three chapters of Genesis, for example, give a literal history I could never understand how anyone reading them with open eyes could think they did."

Refutation #2: Matt. 19:4
Wescott and Hort developed the Greek Text that was the basis of the Revised version (R.V.), the predecessor of the ASV, which is essentially the same version. Perhaps you will find these two "godly" (Lord, forgive me) scholars and their false teaching worthy of your attention.

Well Brother Rice, we certainly do disagree and it certainly is unfortunate. I hope you do not now consider my views as arbitrary. Possibly you would consider an expense paid debate with Peter Ruckman over such a controversial issue????

Yours in Jesus Christ,

Herbert F. Evans

February 15, 1973

Dear Brother Evans:

Your letter has come and I am in the office today and so I take a bit of time to answer briefly.

1. In the first place, it is fine to quote Spurgeon, but you ought to be honest about it. For as you surely know that Spurgeon was speaking about the BIBLE ITSELF, not about some particular translation of it. I feel just as he did that our old English version of the Scriptures is sufficient for plain men for all purposes of life, salvation, and goodness. And against whom is Spurgeon speaking? He plainly says “the critics.” No one has a right to make Spurgeon mean what he didn’t say.

2. You disdain scholarship and the fact that the devoted Christian scholarship of the world, at least nine out of ten, disagree with you about the so-called manuscript evidence, and the radical claim by Ruckman, Fuller and the Trinitarian Society. And not more than one in one hundred would go so far as Ruckman does and, I suppose, as you do, in claiming perfection for the translation of the King James Version and for all practical purposes claiming inspiration to the translators. Then why do you quote scholars? And why do you go back to go over what somebody told you what somebody wrote but what you did not discover for yourself? If you do not have any faith in honest Christian scholarship, then don’t quote them or don’t rely on them.

3. You didn’t face honestly the claim which you make but which the Bible does not make— the man—made doctrine that the translation is inspired and perfect. You still have to deal with that if you are going to go on that basis.

4. Why would you go against the Byzantine manuscripts which you profess to think are true and reliable, I understand, on Acts 8:37 which they omit?

"It is true that the critical text omits Acts 8:37 but so do not only the early papyri, the early uncials, the lectionaries, the Syriac, and the Egyptian, but the Byzantine cursives themselves the very group of manuscripts these men professedly are following " (Marchant A. King in Bibliotheca Sacra, current issue page 39.)

Now since I do not claim that everybody whoever copied a manuscript or everybody whoever preached from one or everybody who translated it was therefore infallibly inspired then I do not have to defend the manuscripts nor the supposing infallibility of the translation of the King James Version. That is your dilemma, not mine.

A debate with Dr. Ruckman? No, the Scripture says, "Make no friendship with an angry man" (Prov. 22:24). His language, his spirit, are not the kind with which good Christians ought to fellowship, in my Judgment, and the very fact that you read his abusive words and are not offended is very sad. And I have far more important and better things to do than to enter into such a debate.

And now let me say again, why do you teach a doctrine not taught in the Bible? Why not face it honestly—the Bible does not teach that everybody who quotes the Bible will quote it correctly, everybody who copies the Scripture will copy it correctly, everybody who preaches the Scripture will preach it correctly, everybody who translates the Bible will translate it correctly? There is no such doctrine in the Bible about any of these things. Why not spend your time on things the Bible really teaches?

In Jesus name, yours,

John R. Rice

Feb. 27, 1973

Dear Dr. Rice:

Thank you for your letter of February 15, 1973. I am sorry that you see fit to discredit my honesty and misrepresent me by editorializing my comments. I am sorry you avoid most of my letter dealing with the erroneous charges of Feb. 2, 1973 (letter and article). You charged me with following Peter Ruckman. You charged Peter Ruckman with being a false teacher, but you did not define his false teaching nor refute it with Scripture as one should. You charged the King James translators falsely by saying they mistranslated Rev. 22:14.

You charged the King James Bible with teaching a different plan of salvation, contradicting your own statements that the codices, "make very little difference in the translations and no difference in the doctrine taught in the Scriptures,” "Do the various translations differ materially on any doctrine . . . , on the plan of salvation . . . No, they do not!" p. 355 your book "Our God Breathed Book the Bible." You do not answer to your contradiction nor to my defense of your charges against me and others. Your latest letter of February 15, resorts to misrepresentation and charges of dishonesty rather than facing the issues. Nevertheless, I will answer your charges:

Your #1 Charge: ". . . it is fine to quote Spurgeon, but you ought to be honest about it . . . No one has the right to make Spurgeon mean what he didn’t say . . . Spurgeon was speaking about the Bible itself, not about some particular translation of it . . . And against whom is Spurgeon speaking? He plainly says “the critics."

If you reread my letter, you will find the only comments that I attach to Spurgeon’s are as follows:

“I am quoting some strong words from Spurgeon. In this way you cannot take occasion with me for slandering good men or putting myself above them . . . These words of Spurgeon are my sentiments in general."

These words reveal my motive of expressing my general sentiments and avoiding occasion being taken. I could stop here, as your charge is unwarranted, but you raise some interesting points. You remind me that Spurgeon was talking to critics. Very well, let us go a step farther and find out what kind of critics. Also, let us find out what kind of Bible he was speaking of:

They were critics who, "raise doubts to portions of the Bible"
They were critics who, "raise questions as to the uniform inspiration of the Bible as a whole portion of
They were critics who, "are Correctors of Scriptures"
They were critics who judge "whether this Scripture belongs to the Inspired Word"
They were critics who judge whether a Scripture "is of dubious authority."
They were critics who "would dictate to the rest of us" what is Bible and what is not . . .

Now as far as your other statement, "Spurgeon was speaking of the Bible itself (?) not about some particular translation of it . . . " If I understand you correctly, as I have read your view, you mean the Original Autographs which have taken the form of a mystical Bible. I cite your statements. Ibid., p. 354, p. 356

“. . .when we speak of inspiration, we speak of the Original Autographs, the Original Manuscripts. We have none of the Original Manuscripts . . . therefore the various translations contain, together, the eternal, unchangeable Word of God."

I submit to you that the Bible Spurgeon was speaking of:

could be read by Farmer Smith—“Now, Farmer Smith when you have read your Bible . . . ”
had portions that could be questioned whether they were part of the "Inspired part of the Word."
was a Bible some were correcting. "Are these correctors of Scripture . . .”
was not called "Original Bible"nor"Original Autographs"nor"Mystical Bible."
The Adjective that was used in the quote was the "OLD ENGLISH Bible."

I hardly think Farmer Smith was reading the Original Autographs or your Mystical Bible. I hardly think the Autographs were being questioned as being part of the Original. Inspired Word, nor the Mystical Bible. I hardly think they were correcting the Autographs or a Mystical Bible. I submit that you make Spurgeon mean something else and not I.

Again, these words of Spurgeon are my sentiments against any kind of critics that fit the above qualifications, whether they be textual critics, higher critics, or ordinary curbstone critics.

In addition, I cite W.A. Criswell from your book. If he meant what he said, I heartily agree with him.

". . .with complete and perfect assurance I can pick up my Bible and know that I read the revealed Word of God. The God who inspired it [the bible he picked up??? This will eventually haunt the good doctor—see the last page—the final telegram] also took faithful care that it be preserved through the fire and blood of the centuries." Ibid., p. 366

Your #2 Charge: "You [Herb Evans] disdain scholarship . . .”

"If you do not have faith in honest Christian scholarship then don’t quote them or don’t rely on them."

You misrepresent me as disdaining all scholarship—all Christian scholarship. However, I am not against all scholarship. I am for honest Christian scholarship that does not conflict with the Word of God. I am, however, against conjecture and opinion that masquerade as scholarship. I disdain doctrinal or unbelieving bias, passed off as scholarship, and I am against some scholarship that dictates to me without good reason. You say in your book:

"Unbelief in Christ and the Bible disqualifies one to translate the Scriptures." — Ibid. p. 378,

What does that do to Dr. Wescott who wrote:

“No one, Now, I suppose, holds the first three chapters of Genesis, for example, give a literal history—I could never understand how anyone reading them with open eyes could think they did."

You seem to think that I disqualify myself from quoting scholars because I don’t go along with all of yours. I see neither your reasoning nor your failure to either affirm the above quote of Wescott as well as Hort’s or to challenge them, regardless of whether I did my own research or not.

YOUR #3 CHARGE: "You [Herb Evans] didn’t face honestly the claim which you make . . . the man-made doctrine that the translation is inspired and perfect."

I wish you were more specific, when you accuse me of dishonesty. My position is this. The translation that God places his stamp of approval on is inspired to the extent that things equal to each other are to the same thing equal. God inspired the Original Autographs once and for all. He then preserved the Text through a host of copies. He also preserved and assured their faithful reproduction into other languages. This in no way implies that the copyists were inspired nor the translators. This in no way implies that there were no copyist errors nor bad translations. It does imply accuracy to the extent that we now have an infallible Bible in our language. By infallible I mean (1.) free from error (2.) absolutely reliable; sure; that cannot be mistaken (Dictionary). This does not imply there are no archaic words nor phrases, nor does it imply that there are no renderings that can be improved as far as the way we speak today. I submit however that the modern day Greek and Hebrew nationals would have a similar problems, if they had the Original Autographs. Your test for inspiration would “flunk" the Original Autographs! Your test of inspiration would allow Greeks more of an inspired Bible than the English.

On p. 356 and p. 360 your book, you say:

"The Old Testament Scriptures which Jesus read and loved and quoted, He had only copies. Scriptures from the writing of Moses nearly fifteen hundred years before . . ." Ibid., p. 356
“ . . .The Lord here guarantees even the verbal accuracy of the translations and copies not of one particular copy nor of the particular translation but of the inspired Word IN ALL THEM TOGETHER.” - Ibid. p. 360

“. . . therefore the various translations CONTAIN TOGETHER the eternal unchangeable Word of God." --Ibid, p. 376

You charge me with man-made doctrine because of my position on Inspiration and preservation and all along you have this strange concept of a Mystical Bible in all the translations. What is worse, you claim in your book that Jesus faced the same situation and suppose there were different translations then. Do you find this doctrine taught in the Scriptures? Do you not have one standard for me and another for yourself? Why is it not man made doctrine to do what you do? As follows:

. . . not a single statement of fact, not a single command or exhortation, has been missed in our translationS." [???] Ibid. p. 355

Why is it all of a sudden man-made doctrine when I drop the "S” from “translations” of you quote??????

Your #4 Charge: "Why would you go against the Byzantine manuscripts which profess to think are true and reliable, I understand, on Acts 8:3 which they omit?

When did I profess this? Where in all my correspondence did I even mention Byzantine manuscripts? Edward Hill in his book, "The King James Version Defended declares Acts 8:37 Non Byzantine. It is included in the Textus Receptus, however. Even Wescott and Hort’s liberal text has it. Dr. Hills points out (p. 124, p. l25) that Irenaeus (180), Cyprian (255), Pacian (370), Ambrosiaser (380), Augustine (400), E2 (7th century). Harclean Syriac Bible, 20 miniscules, the old Latin and Vulgate all have it.

Your #5 charge: "Now since I do not claim that everybody whoever copied a manuscript or everybody whoever preached from one or everybody who translated it was therefore infallibly inspired then I do not have to defend the manuscripts nor the supposing infallibility of the King James Version. That is your dilemma not mine . . . 'Why not face it honestly [where have I heard this before?] . . .the Bible does not teach that everybody who quotes the Bible will quote it correctly, everybody who copies the Scriptures will copy it correctly, everybody who preaches the Scriptures will preach it correctly, everybody that translates the Bible will translate it correctly? There is no such doctrine in the Bible about any of these things. Why not spend your time on things the Bible really teaches."

Why do you misrepresent me so? When did I ever claim “everybody” who quoted, preached, copied, or translated the Bible was inspired? The fact that I condemned certain translations and translators make clear my position. The whole issue of this correspondence has been over the corrupt ASV (the issue we have departed from). Better yet, when did I ever claim that some of the copyists, translators, quoters, or preachers were inspired???? The Scriptures do not teach the translators to be inspired. They do teach however, that the scriptures were preserved. You take issue with what I didn’t say but avoid what I do say regarding Psalms 12:6,7 and Isaiah 59:21. Your dilemma is that you do not have a tangible, infallible Bible in Greek or English.

Summary:

You say in your letter, "A debate with Dr. Ruckman? No, the Scripture says, "Make no friendship with an angry man—Pro. 22:24.” I didn’t invite you to make friends with Doctor Ruckman, I invited you to an expense paid debate. Paul didn’t have to make friends to dispute in the temple. I think Pro. 22:24 is a bit overworked here.

You have chosen to misrepresent ne, discredit my honesty, failed to answer my defense of your charges, and departed from the real issue of the ASV being a corrupt Version. If you were right on your mystical Bible, you still would have to face the issue of corruption in the ASV versus no corruption in the KJV. The test is going to be whether you can with your full page ads get God’s people, Bible believers, to accept the ASV. I say you won’t. God has his stamp of approval on the KJV.

Yours in Christ Jesus,

Herbert F. Evans

Dear Brother Evans:

I am sorry you did not take more to heart my letter. I do not think an extensive answer will be profitable: you are not writing to ask for information but to try to correct me and teach me Thank you for the effort anyway. Will you note two or three things?

1. If God s inspiration of the Bible and His promise that Scripture cannot be broken and that the Scripture endures forever--if that guarantees the King James translation of the Bible, then it must guarantee equally some version in every language. You have no reason to suppose that God has certain methods of dealing with the Bible in America and doesn’t mind about the rest of it. I do not think you will claim this, but it is still inevitable: either among every nation there must be an infallible Bible, without any mistakes in translation, miraculously guaranteed, or your stand about the King James Version has no evidence at all.

2. You say, "The test is going to be whether you can with your full page ads get God’s people, Bible believers, to accept the ASV. I say you won’t. God has His stamp of approval on the KJV."

Well and good. You are saying almost exactly what I have said. I prefer the King James Version of the Bible. I do all my preaching from it. I do my private devotional reading from it and my memory work in thousands of verses and perhaps twenty whole chapters. In all my counsel I ask people to use the King James Version in their private devotions and in family worship. I certainly agree that it is the most useful and best version of the Bible for everybody. That dos not mean that I claim for it what the Bible doesn’t claim and does not mean that I slander and abuse everybody who admires the American Standard Version, even as I do.

I do not think it helpful for you to keep your mind full of argument, suspicions and charges. You were kind to write and thank you for taking the time. I am sure you meant to help me.

In Jesus’ name,

John R. Rice

Dear Dr. Rice:

Thank you for your letter of 3-21-73. I agree with you that extensive answers at this point would not likely be profitable. You evidently found some profit however, in duplicating your first reply of our correspondence in the Sword of the Lord. Of course your readers did not have the opportunity to read the rest of the correspondence. This seems to be standard procedure with the "Sword" and of course is your prerogative as editor. However, for the sake of fairness and objectivity, I hereby request your permission to duplicate all of the correspondence. [To date 3/15/03, we have not received permission, but then Dr. Rice did not seek our permission].

No, you are right, I did not write you as a disciple seeking information. I thought it clear from the beginning of the correspondence that I was taking issue. You seem to think it a humbling thing to be taught or corrected by me. I can’t say that I blame you as I survey and compare my abilities and accomplishments in comparison to yours. Let us be clear, however, I did not abuse or slander you (or call you a fundamentalist nut or radical). I only informed you of your error as brothers are instructed to do. As I see it, my responsibility to you is now fulfilled.

As for your two points:

1. you say:

"You have no reason to suppose that God has certain methods of dealing with the Bible in ‘America’ and doesn’t mind the rest of it . . . it is . . . inevitable: either among ‘every’ nation there must be an infallible Bible, without any mistakes in translation, miraculously guaranteed, or your stand about the ‘King James Version’ has no evidence at all.”

Following your line of reasoning and the rules of logic you have made, I say:

“You have no reason to suppose that God has certain methods of dealing with the Bible in ‘the original Greek’ and doesn’t mind the rest of it . . . it is . . . inevitable: either among ‘other’ nations there must be an infallible Bible, without any mistakes in translation, miraculously guaranteed, or your stand about the ‘Original Greek Autographs’ has no evidence all.”

2. I am thankful you still consider the King James Version the “best” and the most useful. So why bother with anything inferior? Why not use and recommend only the best? Why admire and recommend an inferior and erroneous version that quotes Isaiah in Mark 1:2, when all along it was Malachi who said it? (Mal. 3:l) The "best" version quotes "the prophets.”

I thank you for your response and your time.
Herbert F. Evans

THE SWORD Friday, April 13, 1973, page 5

“Now the Lord has prepared things for us, this wonderful truth. Don’t you see you are going to have to answer to God about the Bible? I have a miracle in my hands in this Book. I don’t mean the paper. I don’t mean the leather cover. I have in my hands a message from God, the infallible, eternal Word of God. And ten thousand years from now this will still be the Word of God. It abides forever. It is written in Heaven. Every word of it in the original manuscripts was breathed out from God. How foolish for me to ignore it! How wicked if I don’t read it!

END OF BOOKLET

I still have tremendous respect for Dr. John R. Rice (1895-1980), who founded the Sword of the Lord ministry in 1934 to contend for the Christian faith and lead lost sinners to Jesus Christ. The Sword was originally published in Dallas, Texas in the 1930s. They moved to Wheaton, Illinois in 1940. And finally, they relocated in 1963 moved to Murfreesboro, Tennessee. A lot of people don't know that Brother Rice fell down some stairs and severed his olfactory nerve in 1975. This incident significantly impacted his health and ability to smell.

That being said, as much as I respect Brother Rice, I strongly disagree with him that the King James Bible is not inspired or perfect. Pastor Jack Hyles had three mentors: Lee Roberson, Lester Roloff and John R, Rice. Brother Hyles preached approximately 2,000 times with Dr. Rice for 20 years, traveling the country together. It is my humble belief that Pastor Hyles held back on the King James Bible until his mentor went to Heaven in 1980, because that was about the time that Dr. Hyles became King James Bible only.

From listening to Brother Hyles over the years, and from our Saturday evening preacher's boy classes, he indicated that Brother Rice was difficult to get along with at times over their doctrinal differences (e.g., the issue of storehouse tithing). So, I think went Dr. Rice went to Heaven, Pastor Hyles felt like the mantle had been handed to him. I stand with Dr. Hyles and other King James-only believers today who believe that we do have an inspired, perfectly preserved, incorruptible, infallible, inerrant, Holy Bible today in the English King James Bible.

Pastor Jack Schaap's Betrayal Of God's Inspired Word

noreply@blogger.com (David J. Stewart) — Sat, 18 Apr 2026 07:00:00 +0000

John 6:63, “It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.”

There is an ongoing raging debate in religious circles over what was inspired by God concerning the Holy Bible. There are three primary theories:

THOUGHT INSPIRATION - Some say that God only inspired His thoughts (aka, Dynamic Theory). This includes most of the modern Bible translators, primarily the New International Version (NIV) committee. They deny that the actual Words of God are inspired. It is obvious with such horrible beliefs that you can literally manipulate the Bible to say anything.
WORD INSPIRATION - Others, including myself and Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001), believe that the actual Words of God are inspired, and when they are accurately translated into another language; such as English, they continue to be inspired. I believe the King James Bible is 100% verbally (Word for Word), and plenary (the whole canon of 66 books) inspired by God, not merely man's best attempt.
ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT ONLY INSPIRATION - And then there is a third group, which includes former disgraced Pastor Jack Schaap of the First Baptist Church of Hammond, who believe that God only inspired the original Hebrew, Chaldean and Greek Words. Adherents of this group claim that a translation cannot be inspired. They teach that the King James Bible is a great book, but not inspired, infallible, incorruptible or inerrant.

In 2018, by God's grace, I made this important documentary titled: “The Battle Of The Ages.” My goal in making this video was to gather all the information that I could for a couple months; anything in defense of the inspiration of the King James Bible; and then place it all into one video. I was able to gather enough information to make a 4:19 hour film. ...

The Battle Of The Ages

Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001) was the biggest champion of the inspiration of the 1611 authorized King James Bible. Dr. Hyles rightly said, “If you've seen one Westcott and Hort Bible you've seen 'em all.” That is, ALL of the Devil's modern Bible revisions share the SAME corruptions. Case in point...

Even a young child can clearly see that Satan's paws are all over the modern English Bible revisions. Pastor M.R. DeHaan (1891-1965) said it well...

“Be on guard against any tampering with the Word, whether disguised as a search for truth, or a scholarly attempt at apparently hidden meanings; and beware of the confusion created by the senseless rash of new versions, translations, editions, and improvements upon the tried and tested Bible of our fathers and grandfathers.” —Pastor M.R. DeHaan, 'THE TABERNACLE,' p. 101

One Book stands alone, the inspired KING JAMES BIBLE!

Dr. Jack Schaap Ruined the First Baptist Church of Hammond and Hyles-Anderson College

On a Wednesday evening (March 4th, 2009), Pastor Jack Schaap preached a disturbing sermon at the First Baptist Church of Hammond titled: “What Did God Preserve?” In this bizarre sermon he foolishly teaches that the Bible was not written for a lazy man. According to Dr. Schaap, you have to labor intensely to understand God's Word, and the only way to truly know the truth is to examine copies of original manuscripts in museums in England.

Pastor Schaap errantly teaches that God only inspired the original Hebrew, Chaldean and Greek Words, nothing else. He foolishly says that the King James Bible is a great book, but not without error and not inspired by God.

Pastor Schaap even went as far as to bizarrely say that starting in the fall of 2009 their schools would teach grade-schoolers Hebrew and Greek, and fly some of the kids to England to become linguist scholars, so that they could ensure the next generation would have the truth. Kindly said, I humbly think the guy lost his marbles!

Don't you dare tell me that a sweet dear grandma rocking on her front porch in a rocking-chair, with only a 5th grade education, cannot understand God's Word. God wouldn't leave us at the mercy of Hebrew and Greek scholars, most of whom cannot even agree with each other on the Bible, causing utter never-ending confusion (1st Corinthians 14:33).

Brother Schaap was my teacher for 4 years of Church Education at Hyles-Anderson College. When he preached, he reminded me of what George Whitfield (1714-1770) might have sounded like, who was dubbed: “The Preacher With A Golden Voice.” George Whitefield was known for his powerful oratory and ability to command large audiences, often preaching to thousands without amplification. Jack Schaap was commanding with his voice when he preached. It broke my heart to learn that he wickedly changed his father-in-law's position on the King James Bible at First Baptist Church, which Bible inspiration Brother Hyles said he had dedicated the rest of his life to defending and champion in 1996. So sad, so sad.

Thank God for Pastor David Baker (1967-2024)

Brother Baker and I were ministry friends. After Pastor Jack Schaap in 2009 wickedly CHANGED the church's long held doctrinal position that the King James Bible is inspired, Dr. Baker created a needful website in defense of God's inspired Word called “HACalumni” dot com (the website no longer exists). Thankfully, a few years ago I downloaded his entire ministry website to preserve it for future generations, in case the information vanished, and I am so glad that I planned ahead. I have all of Brother Baker's files.

Here are some of the preserved articles and letters from Pastor Baker's HACalumni website:

Pastor David Baker's Letter To First Baptist Church of Hammond in 2009

Tragically, the Bible college that I attended for 8 years and graduated from with honors on the Dean's List in 1993, no longer exists today. It disgusts me that many people at Hyles-Anderson College and the First Baptist Church of Hammond blindly sided with Pastor Jack Schaap. This is sinful human nature to automatically take sides with one's corrupt leaders. Truly the love of money (a job or career) is the root of all evil. I have seen this disturbing trend all my adult life in churches, and it is a sore evil. The heathen world does the same thing. Bad cops protect bad cops. Bad lawyers protect bad lawyers. Bad church staff members protect bad pastors!

Inspiration: Temporal Or Eternal
(Dr. James Sightler, 1937-2019)

Pastor Baker wasn't a perfect man, just as neither are you or myself friend. We are all wicked sinners (Romans 3:10-23; Romans 7:14-25). There but for the grace of God, go I and you. I miss Brother Baker and his Fundamental Baptist Podcast. He did so much to help others for Jesus Christ. For 28 years he worked to help inmates in a prison ministry. Brother Baker had Christ's heart to help the bereaved, downcast and broken sinners of life.

As a young man who still hadn't found the Lord Jesus Christ, David Baker shares his testimony that he was very worldly and had a rough life, getting drunk and living in sin. It is a miracle that Brother Baker ever became a pastor after coming out of such a difficult wicked past. I THANK GOD for my ministry friend, Brother David Baker!!!

We are living in “perilous times” today when preachers are moving targets for haters, critics and the Devil's minions (2nd Timothy 3:1-7). Satan is “the accuser of the brethren” (Revelation 12:10b). As you can imagine, as a fundamentalist Bible preacher I receive my share of hate mail from wicked sinners. It's part of being a Bible preacher! It is Jesus whom they really hate, not me (John 7:7). When you are a Christian, the whole world is waiting for you to fall. Multiply that times ten for a fundamentalist Bible preacher!

Bible preachers are on the frontlines of the battle between good and evil today! I don't see hateful ungodly slanderers attacking company CEOs for the sins and crimes committed by their employees and employees families; Yet, the Devil's crowd blame a pastor for everything bad that anyone who has ever been connected to him in any way does. What hypocrisy!

The inspired Holy Bible sternly warns in Matthew 7:2, “For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.” Those wicked haters today who overturn every rock, examining every nook and cranny of a man's life, to scrutinize and destroy a preacher's name and testimony will absolutely be subjected to the exact SAME scrutiny by our omniscient and omnipotent God. Woe unto the wicked!

I am so grateful to Pastor Baker for making his HACalumni ministry website, “that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints” (Jude 1:3). I am so glad that I downloaded the website to preserve it. Dear reader, if you think this matter of King James Bible inspiration is a side issue or not worth dividing over, you are a darn fool who is not right with God. If you're not upset, you're not paying attention!!!

Pastor Jack Schaap Lost His Mind

Respectfully said, Pastor Jack Schaap strayed so far away from biblical teaching that he became enamored with sex. To the man with a hammer in his hand everything starts looking like a nail sticking up. And to the man with a perverted mind everything starts looking like sex. For example: Dr. Schaap said that the Hebrew meaning of the word “stuck” means “sexual intercourse” in Psalms 119:31, “I have stuck unto thy testimonies: O LORD, put me not to shame.” That is insane! Pastor Schaap likened the Lord's Supper to sexual intercourse. The guy lost his way somewhere along life's journey as a preacher. There but for the grace of God, go I. That is why for as long as I can remember my favorite Bible verse has been Proverbs 4:23, “Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.”

Whereas Pastor Jack Hyles called the issue of King James Bible inspiration, “The Battle of The Ages” in 1996, his incompetent son-in-law Pastor Schaap in a moment of demon-inspired insanity forever CHANGED the church's long held position on the King James Bible in 2009. But don't take my word for it, read for yourself what Pastor Hyles said about Jack Schaap...

“And brother, any time anybody ever casts any reflection upon the accuracy and the inspiration—verbal inspiration—of this Bible, I'll guarantee you he was inspired by the demons. I'll guarantee you! I don't care if he's got a 'reverend' in front of his name. I don't care if he has a clerical collar on. I don't care what school he's been to. He's of the Devil if he says that the Bible is not verbally inspired by God!” —Dr. Jack Hyles, “Satan's Masterpiece”

Brother Hyles had plainly warned the church not to allow a half dozen men to change what the church believes and preaches, but sadly that is exactly what happened in 2009.

Pastor Jack Schaap foolishly said the inspiration of the King James Bible is a "side issue" which "espouses Catholic doctrine." That is simply false! Brother Schaap was my teacher at Hyles-Anderson College for 4 years of Church Education in my 8 years there (I had Dr. Ray Young for the other 4 years). Dr. Schaap also taught me Basic Homiletics, Advanced Homiletics and Revelation and I will always cherish those memories.

Pastor Jeffrey J. Fugate of the Clay Mills Baptist Church in Lexington, Kentucky, admirably wrote an open letter to Pastor Jack Schaap, reprimanding him for ruthlessly attacking the King James Bible and Dr. Gail Riplinger. I couldn't agree with Pastor Fugate any more! God bless Brother Fugate. By the way, his Commonwealth Baptist College teaches their students that the King James Bible is inspired by God. Commonwealth Baptist College today is the new Hyles-Anderson College, which Dr. Russell Anderson supported at the time of his graduation to Heaven in 2023. Dr. Anderson also attended their Clay Mills Baptist Church for the latter years of his life. I THANK GOD for these dear saints of God and their zeal to contend for the inspiration of the KING JAMES BIBLE!!!

Pastor Jeff Fugate Rebukes Dr. Jack Schaap

In his open letter to Pastor Schaap, Brother Fugate makes these 9 vital points:

You say that the King James Bible had “more than 20,000 errors of spelling...” (p. 85).
“Now, for you technical worriers out there, we understand that there were more than 20,000 errors of spelling and typesetting in the first edition of the 1611 King James Bible.” (Quoted from page 85 of Where Are We Going?)
The errors of spelling and typesetting in the first edition of the 1611 King James Bible only number in the hundreds. The number 20,000 does not apply to errors of spelling and typesetting in the first edition of the King James Bible. Even King James Bible critics admit this (see David Norton, A Textual History of the King James Bible, Cambridge University Press, 2005, pp, 167-172). No scholar uses the word “errors” when referring to evolving changes to orthography and typography.
You say that the King James killed Baptists (p. 53).
“There are also those men we hold high with respect, and yet they murdered and tortured our Baptist forefathers. Four such men include Martin Luther, John Calvin, John Winthrop, and yes, even King James.” (Quoted from page 53 of Where Are We Going?)
This is not only another negative statement in an effort to seemingly demean King James, but it is also just downright not true! This is a lie that you have repeated from those that hate the King James Bible! This is the language of the enemy, not one that should be working to strengthen people's faith in God's perfect Bible!
You mention that you have a pamphlet entitled, “Why Stand Against The King James Bible?” (p. 58)
“I am a strong believer in the incorruptible seed (please see my booklet, “Why Stand Against The King James Bible?,” but practically I believe that I can win a soul to Christ without his seeing a Bible.” (Quoted from page 58 of Where Are We Going?)
I have never read nor seen this pamphlet, but what do you think anyone is supposed to think about you and your position on the King James Bible to even mention this? Do you have such a pamphlet? Do you teach in some way to stand against the King James Bible? Perhaps, I am totally misunderstanding this, and I hope that I am.
You use the words “foolishness” and “barbarianism” to describe those who have defended the King James Bible (pp. 84, 86)
“Because of the amount of foolishness being bantered about on this subject by careless Bible students, such as teaching that the King James Version is inspired...” (Quoted from page 84 of Where Are We Going?)
“...a multitude of younger pastors who had been looking to us for a role model and leadership but became confused and disenchanted with our near barbarianism.” (Quoted from page 86 of Where Are We Going?)
Admittedly, there have been some that have had a wrong disposition in their defense of the King James Bible. There are also those that have taken a stand that goes to the right - such as saying that you must be saved by the King James Bible or you are a two-fold child of Hell. However, I will guarantee you that there is a greater need to take a stand for the King James Bible because of the enemies that are printing perverted Bibles than there is a need to stand against the very few that might go to the right in this matter!
I would rather have someone that is too zealous for God's Word than someone who sows seeds of doubt about God's Word. I am not for wrong either way, but I would be quicker to criticize someone for being negative about God's Word than for being over-zealous! I will take men like the Apostle Peter, who was often over-zealous, than a Rick Warren.
You say that it is deceptive and ignorant to teach that the King James Bible is inspired (“Inspiration and Preservation,” sermon, Sunday, November 23, 2008)
“We become confused when that word inspired is used by these ignorant or deceptive teachers when applied to the KJV. I believe the King James Version was not given by inspiration. It was given by hard work and diligent labor, and I believe that work was providentially superintended by God and that the KJV is the preserved Word of God, as the Scriptures promised that God would preserve His Words.” (Quote taken from “Inspiration and Preservation,” sermon, Sunday, November 23, 2008)
I believe that my King James Bible is inspired! If you think it is heretical to say that the King James Bible is inspired, then there are many heretics, including myself and the preachers I have already named in this letter. Can you say that men like Bob Jones Sr., Jack Hyles, and others were stating heresy when they said it was inspired?
Inspiration is more than a method. Inspiration means that the Spirit of God is within the Words. The Bible says, “All scripture is given by inspiration”! It does not say “was” but “is”! You can call me “ignorant,” “naïve,” “rat in the woodpile,” “uneducated” or anything else you want, but I am in good company.
You always use the word inspiration in the past tense (i.e., “was given”). That is not what the Bible says. The Bible says, “is given by inspiration.” In saying this, you cannot deny that you believe the Originals were inspired but not the Bible we have today. Inspiration means that my Bible is alive! It lost nothing in preservation—including inspiration!
You try to say that people who believe the King James Bible is inspired believe in “double inspiration.” My answers is, “The Bible never died! It did not need to be inspired again! If it 'was' inspired, then it 'is' inspired.” John 6:63 proclaims “...the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit and they are life.” 1 Peter 1:23 heralds, “...the word of God, which liveth and abideth forever.”
If you cannot say that your Bible is inspired (not because it was inspired again but because it never lost its inspiration) then you must conclude that only the Originals are inspired. Inspiration with preservation means nothing! Preservation without inspiration means nothing! This is not a matter of semantics. This is a matter of getting it right!
I have never heard a Baptist preacher say they have a “word of knowledge” (p. 85). Never! Perhaps you have. I do not think this danger exists, but perhaps you have heard this. I have heard some Charismatics say this, but we do not listen to them anyway. They are off on every major Bible doctrine. They would not be right even if they had the Originals!
You say “there are nearly two dozen various KJV editions in this country, with more than 100 variant readings.” (“Inspiration and Preservation,” sermon, Sunday, November 23, 2008)
“At this present time, there are nearly two dozen various KJV editions in this country, with more than 100 variant readings.” (Quote taken from “Inspiration and Preservation,” sermon, Sunday, November 23, 2008)
I am aware that there are some differences of spelling in some and that we should use the correct one, but I would like to see the list of the “nearly two dozen” different King James Bibles. Once again, however, you cast clouds of doubts over the King James Bible. Why do you work so hard to do this?
You say that God's Word does not need defending (p. 86)
“...our near barbarianism. Cursing, swearing, name calling, and character assassination were all considered fair play to 'defend God's Word.'”
But God's Word did not need defending; it needed obedience. If we had used the King James Version to build strong, soul-winning, thoroughly indoctrinated churches, our works would have been all the answer that was needed. (Quoted from page 86 of Where Are We Going?)
What were preachers supposed to do when their people were going to book stores to buy Bibles and they were getting everything from the New International Version to the Reader's Digest Version? If preachers had not taken a firm stand for truth then we would be in an absolute mess today concerning the Bible!
The Bible tells me to reprove, rebuke and exhort! We are to admonish and warn! We are to cry aloud against transgressions and sins!
I do agree that we are not to defend and polish the weapon, but we are to use it. But make no mistake, we are also supposed to defend and contend for the faith!
You quote Dr. John R. Rice as saying that we are to, “...Be a Fundamentalist, But Not a Nut” (p. 44)
“While Dr. Rice clearly linked the term Fundamentalism to vigorously defending the faith and to aggressive soul winning, he also wrote a chapter entitled 'Be a Fundamentalist, But Not a Nut,' in which he commented on the King James-only position and describes preaching for Dr. Harry Ironside at the famous Moody Church of Chicago. ” (Quoted from page 44 of Where Are We Going?)
After you give this quote by Dr. Rice you give the example of being a King James only person. Why would you put something like that in a book if you do not want preachers to think that they are a nut if they believe the King James Bible is THE Word of God? Dr. Rice was the preacher who preached the sermon, “Bobbed Hair, Bossy Wives and Women Preachers!” If I am a nut for taking a King James Bible only position - then I am a nut!
You said to me on the telephone that you would not listen to a woman, such as Gail Riplinger, and learn theology from a woman.
Gail Riplinger is a woman who holds an honorary doctorate degree from Hyles-Anderson College for her work on the KJB. You sell or did sell her books in the Hyles-Anderson College bookstore.
You did send four of your men to meet with her for four hours to get her opinion about your teaching. I have a question here, “Had she agreed with your uninspired opinion of the King James Bible would you have quoted her?”
In light of these things, it appears to me that you are moving to the left of the stand that we, as Fundamentalists, have taken for these many years. I am not interested in moving to the left in any way. I want to remain firm on my position on the King James Bible and our Baptist Heritage. I will remain firm in my position on music that is Christ honoring and godly. I will continue to take a stand against perverted Bible versions, rock music, immodest dress and ecumenicism. I believe that it is time to take a difficult but necessary stand against this movement to the left. I will not be speaking at Pastor's School 2009 nor attending.
I will be praying that you will recognize that your influence is strong and that you will use it to strengthen that which remains rather than weaken it.

The Ungodly Betrayal of Dr. Russell Anderson (1931-2023)

Sadly, that is exactly what happened, so that since 2009 the church and Hyles-Anderson College no longer believe nor teach that the King James Bible is inspired by God. Dr. Russell Anderson was so upset about the matter that he wrote an open letter to Pastor Jack Schaap in 2009. And also an open letter to Pastor John Wilkerson in 2015 (in this open letter Dr. Anderson demands that they remove his name from Hyles-Anderson College, since they refused to return to their former position that the King James Bible is inspired and without error).

Both open letters from Brother Anderson earnestly pleaded that they return to their former doctrinal position that the King James Bible is verbally (Word for Word) and plenary (the whole canon of 66 books) inspired by God, or else he would withdraw his support of both the church and college, and due to their ungodly rejection of his wisdom Dr. Anderson did just that!

Read for yourself what Pastor Jack Hyles said about the King James Bible.

Again, Brother Hyles warned the church members not to let this happen. Dr. Hyles wisely told each church member to appoint them self as a guardian of one against heresy creeping into the church.

Dr. Hyles warned the church in 1998...

“The biggest split that has ever come will come in the next ten years, if not sooner, over the King James Bible - and it couldn't come soon enough for me. I'm tired of colleges and universities advertising that they 'use' the King James Bible - tell the whole story! Tell everyone that you do not believe that it is inspired word for word.” —Pastor Jack Hyles, from the Wednesday night Bible study titled, “Revelation to Illumination” (1998)

Shockingly, it was exactly 10 YEARS later that his son-in-law Pastor Schaap denied the inspiration of the King James Bible. Dr. Schaap in his retarded stupid ungodly booklet titled, "Where Are We Going?," which was passed out at Pastor's School to over 5,000 delegates disparagingly called King James Bible only believers: "Rats in the woodpile," "Barbarians" and "Ignorant hillbillies." You can read Dr. Schaap's own self defense of his fallacy in this clearly twisted response, in which he is trying to hide behind his alleged "angry" wife and the "angry" deacons for his incompetence of denying the inspiration of the King James Bible.

The First Baptist Church of Hammond are ingrates! Even even giving $8,000,000 of his hard earned money to the Lord to build their new church auditorium in Hammond, they threw Dr. Russell Anderson under the bus in 2009. Then they backed up over him, treating him like a demented crazy old man. Pastor Schaap shamefully rebuked him, when all Brother Anderson did was TELL THE TRUTH.

Dr. Hyles told everyone to guard against changes creeping into the church. If anyone has a RIGHT to speak up it was the co-founder of Hyles-Anderson College. SHAME on the First Baptist Church of Hammond. I had hoped that they would make things right with Dr. Anderson before he went to Heaven, but they ostracized and shunned him.

I have tremendous admiration for Dr. Anderson. He was willing to lose 40 years of built-up prestige, honor and his reputation as the co-founder of Hyles-Anderson College, all to side with the inspired King James Bible. Wow! Who does that! I love that dear man!!! I thank God for Brother Anderson's courageous stand, that cost him everything. The guy literally went from being the most admired man on campus at Hyles-Anderson College (next to Brother Hyles), to being mistreated and shunned as just a crazy old man, a nobody in the eyes of the First Baptist Church of Hammond. All thanks to that wicked jerk Pastor Jack Schaap!

Pastor Schaap's Assault Against Dr. Gail Riplinger

in his childish rage, Pastor Schaap horribly went on a personal vendetta to ruin Dr. Gail Riplinger's good name and reputation, calling her a “serial adulteress” and a “witch.” If that wasn't bad enough, Brother Schaap instructed all his men on staff who were preaching at various churches across the country to slander Miss Riplinger, and they wickedly did. All because as Dr. Jim Vineyard rightly said, “She grabbed him by the short hairs, and it hurt!”

Pastor Schaap had sent a few of his men on his personal jet down to North Carolina to try to get Miss Riplinger to back up his heresy that the King James Bible is not inspired. She refused and sided with the truth! When Jack Schaap found out, like Herod who tried to kill Jesus, Dr. Schaap lost his mind and decided to murder Gail Riplinger with his words.

In fact, Brother Hyles presented Miss Riplinger with an honorary doctorate degree at Pastor's School in 1993 for her impeccable work in defense of the King James Bible. She's not a perfect woman, but she is a humble servant of God. I was present, the year I graduated from Hyles-Anderson, when Miss Riplinger received her honorary doctorate degree from Pastor Hyles. If it weren't for Miss Riplinger, most Baptist pastors today would still be in the dark regarding the history of our beloved King James Bible. I THANK GOD for Miss Riplinger, who is now 78 years old. Our local New Testament churches own her a debt of gratitude.

Shame On Pastor John Wilkerson

Sadly, Pastor John Wilkerson admitted to the whole church during his candidacy (to be their new pastor) in January of 2013, that he is a pastor not a preacher. When asked how he viewed the Devil's modern perversions of the Bible, he shamefully said he thinks it is disrespectful to criticize the modern Bible versions, lest it do more harm than good. What he was really shamefully admitting is that he doesn't see the Devil's corrupt Bibles as a threat.

What Dr. Wilkerson incompetently said is no different than if you saw a man urinating in the church's nursery milk bottles, but chose not to say anything, lest it offend new mothers and they quit coming to church. I assure you that a corrupt Bible version is infinitely more deadly than a weirdo peeing in milk bottles! Sadly, communist Cuba has more Horsesense today than most pastors. Tragically, if you visited First Baptist Church of Hammond today and looked through the pews on a Sunday, you'd find people using dozens of different Bible versions.

I suppose that Brother Hyles too was being “disrespectful” to people when he preached against the modern Bible revisions. “I come from the future, I bring bad news!”

A deaf man from Long Beach, California, contacted me on Facebook. He said that he's personal friends with Brother Wilkerson. (I stayed at Brother Wilkerson's home for a wedding in the early 1990s. Pastor Larry Chapel did the ceremony. We drove all the way from Chicago and back.) The deaf man told me that John Wilkerson still believes that the King James Bible is inspired, just like Brother Hyles did; but he said the church's leaders control his preaching and insist that he uphold the position Jack Schaap established in 2009. I wrote back and said, “So you mean Pastor Wilkerson is henpecked!” Yep, that is exactly what is going on in Hammond today. Grow a spine, man! God pity a henpecked pastor!

“The only inspired Words of God are in the King James Bible!” —Pastor Jack Hyles (an awesome quote from the needful 1994 sermon: “THE REAL BATTLE!”)

I love Brother Hyles and thank God for his zeal for THE TRUTH. Damn the torpedoes! ...

“Every word in this Bible is inspired by God almighty!” —Dr. Jack Hyles, “A Friend At Midnight”

Sadly, the church members voted 94% to hire Dr. John Wilkerson as their new pastor. He took the position in February of 2013. Pastor Wilkerson has shamefully chosen to continue denying the inspiration of the King James Bible. Consequently, in this open letter to Pastor Wilkerson, Dr. Russell Anderson insisted that they remove his name from Hyles-Anderson College, but they refused. Evidentially they legally don't have to, but God will avenge Brother Anderson.

The King James Bible is Inspired by God

Dear reader, don't anyone dare tell me that we all have to become Greek, Chaldean and Hebrew scholars to understand the truth of God's Word. I reject Dr. Jack Schaap's ridiculous heresy that we must travel to some museum in England to find the truth. I find no fault in the inspired King James Bible!!!

I agree 100% with Pastor Jeffrey Fugate that inspiration means God's Words are living Words! By “inspired,” I simply means that when you read the King James Bible, God's Holy Spirit is speaking to you, not the best efforts by a bunch of sinful flawed translators in 1611. The King James is the ONLY Bible that doesn't attack Jesus' deity and the Godhead.

Hebrews 4:12, “For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.”

The word “quick” in Hebrews 4:12 means “alive.” When a man writes a book, it is mere words; but the King James Bible are God's living words! Inspiration means that my King James Bible is alive! It lost nothing in preservation—including inspiration! The Bible never died! It did not need to be inspired again! If it 'was' inspired, then it 'is' inspired.” John 6:63b, “...the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.”

For Pastor Jack Schaap to teach that the King James Bible is a “great book,” but not inspired by God is to say that it is a DEAD BOOK! Clearly, he believes that the King James has some power to it. So is it half alive? Is it 99% alive? Did you know that deadly rat poison is less than 1% actual poison? The rest is 99% wholesome food that a human could eat and not get sick.

So, don't know tell me that my inspired King James Bible is faulty, less than perfect, full of errors and unreliable. No Sir, God has honored His solemn promise in Psalms 12:6-7 to preserve His “pure words” for us today. English is the fasting growing language on the planet, spoken in more countries than any other dialect. God knows what He is doing!

The Betrayal of Pastor Jack Hyles

By God's grace I enrolled in 1985 and worked my way through Hyles-Anderson College. I finally graduated in 1993 with honors. THANK YOU GOD!!! Brother Hyles is my hero of the faith! Read for yourself what Dr. Hyles taught us students at Hyles-Anderson...

“Students of Hyles-Anderson College, do not give your loyalty to Hyles-Anderson College. You give your loyalty to what we stand for today, and if tomorrow we don't stand for it, you withdraw your loyalty—loyalty to principle, loyalty to right, loyalty to character, loyalty to integrity, loyalty to conviction, loyalty to truth; not loyalty to institutions.” —Dr. Jack Hyles, “Filled With All The Fulness Of God”

And that is exactly what I have done—withdrawn my support of both the First Baptist Church of Hammond and Hyles-Anderson College. It is tragic that Dr. Wendell Evans, Dr. Ray Young and countless other staff members at the church and college didn't follow Dr. Hyles' godly advice. I love and admire those men, but they sold out, for which I disrespect them. Both of those men are still in charge of Hyles-Anderson College today, going along with the betrayal of God, the King James Bible, Pastor Hyles and Dr. Anderson. They are going along with the new heretical position, denying the inspiration of our beloved time-tested 1611 King James Bible, bidding Godspeed to apostasy. It breaks my heart.

“We believe this King James Bible is the ONLY Bible!” —Dr. Jack Hyles, “I Find No Fault In This Man!”

Pastor Hyles taught us to always be willing to move toward the RIGHT, but never to the LEFT. There is a journey of learning the truth for every Christian. Each preacher hones his preaching skills and Bible knowledge as he grows over the years. In the 1960s (in such books as: “Let's Study The Revelation”), Brother Hyles actually corrected the King James Bible, but he woke up and never did it again.

After Evangelist John R. Rice (1895-1980) graduated to Heaven in 1980, Dr. Hyles started championing the inspiration of the King James Bible. Dr. Rice was 31 years older than Brother Hyles (1926-2001), and Brother Rice was not always easy to get along with from what I've heard Pastor Hyles say. I humbly think Pastor Hyles was careful not to offend his friend, with whom he shared approximately 2,000 pulpit engagement over 20 years across the world.

Unfortunately, Dr. John R. Rice did NOT believe the King James Bible is inspired (but we need to keep in mind that he didn't have access to the internet and all the wealth of information we have today). The ultra-corrupt New International Version (NIV) that shocked and opened the eyes of multitudes of Baptist preachers wasn't published until 1984. Dr. Rice died in 1980. I've read that the whole of man's knowledge doubles every 8 years.

In the awesome 1994 book:, “Attorney David C. Gibbs, Jr. Interviews Dr. Jack Hyles,” Pastor Jack Hyles teaches that every generation must rediscover THE TRUTH for itself:

“Our big battle is over the Bible. For the next ten years it will be an increasingly big battle – I mean over the preservation of the King James text. I think there will be no difference in the next ten years than in the last ten years. Every generation is a part of the same performance – same play, just different actors. Every generation has to rediscover the truth for itself. Every generation has to rediscover the Bible for itself. Every generation has to become fundamental. You are not born a fundamentalist. You become a fundamentalist. Every generation has to come out of its previous generation.” SOURCE

That is why we have the New IFB today. That is, the New Independent Fundamental Baptist movement. They have come out of the dead Old IFB and are starting new churches everywhere that are aggressive about soul-winning, contending for the faith and preaching hard against the wickedness of our generation. I THANK GOD for the New IFB!

As I said earlier, I think if John R. Rice were still alive today, there'd be a good chance he would have moved to the RIGHT and joined the King James-only camp. And with Artificial Intelligence now taking off, man's knowledge will now exponentially skyrocket even further to unimaginable heights over the next 20 years. Literally, A.I. is inventing new breakthrough drugs, better architecture, incredible software, new surgical procedures, amazing robot designs, genetic designs, even new A.I. itself, et cetera. If the Lord tarries His return, and we are still here by God's grace to see the world in 2050 (I'll be 83 years old), I think our minds will be blown. Even now, I am absolutely intrigued and amazed. I really doubt if I'll live to see 83. My Mom went to Heaven at age 65, my Dad 75. I am now age 59. Where did the years go?

Is There Not A Cause?

1st Samuel 17:29, “And David said, What have I now done? Is there not a cause?”

Perhaps you are wondering dear reader why I am seemingly beating a dead horse? I mean, it's been 17 years now since 2009 and Jack Schaap is history. No doubt the First Baptist Church of Hammond would love to see this matter die with Dr. Russell Anderson and Pastor David Baker. NOT A CHANCE!!! I downloaded Dr. Baker's HACalumni ministry website for a very good reason, which is to remain 'A VOICE' for the next generation and beyond.

I will go to seed in this matter of championing the inspiration of the King James Bible. Pastor Hyles (1926-2001) is gone. Pastor Baker (1967-2024) is gone. Dr. Anderson (1931-2023) is gone. My dear ministry friends are in Heaven, “and their works do follow them” (Revelation 14:13b). I am not the mighty eloquent preacher as was Pastor Jack Hyles. I am not the giant of the faith as was Dr. Russell Anderson. Brother Baker's voice has been silenced because he is gone from the earth. Ah, but what saith the Scripture? Ecclesiastes 9:4, “For to him that is joined to all the living there is hope: for a living dog is better than a dead lion.” I am just a dog, but I am alive, praise God. I AM A VOICE!!!

Thank you friend for reading my ministry blog. To God alone be all the praise, credit and glory.

“I would not give, knowingly, one thin dime to a college that does not believe in the verbal inspiration of this Book I hold tonight.” —Pastor Jack Hyles, “YOU MUST GO THROUGH ARABIA”; preached October 11, 1981

Why The Train Wrecked

noreply@blogger.com (David J. Stewart) — Thu, 16 Apr 2026 14:00:00 +0000

Galatians 1:8, “But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.”

I have been reading through an old classic book from my book collection, authored in 1945 by Pastor Harry A. Ironside (1876-1951) titled, “Illustrations Of Bible Truth.” On page 62, there is an illustration called, “WHY THE TRAIN WRECKED,” in which Dr. Ironside states...

“It is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul” (Leviticus 17:11).

Some years ago a fearful railroad wreck took a dreadful toll of life and limb in an eastern state. A train, loaded with young people returning home from school, was stalled on a suburban track because of what is known as a “hot-box.” The limited was soon due, but a flagman was sent back to warn the engineer in order to avert a read-end collision. Thinking all was well, the crowd laughed and chatted, while the train-hands worked on in fancied security. Suddenly the whistle of the limited was heard and and on came the heavy train and crashed into the local, with horrible effect.

The engineer of the limited saved his own life by jumping, and some days afterward was hailed into court to account for his part in the calamity. And now a curious discrepancy in his testimony occurred. He was asked, “Did you not see the flagman warning you to stop?”

He replied, “I saw him, but he waved a yellow flag, and I took it for granted all was well, and so went on, though slowing down.”

The flagman was called, “What flag did you wave?”

“A red flag, but he went by me like a shot.”

“Are you sure it was red?”

“Absolutely.”

Both insisted on the correctness of their testimony, and it was demonstrated that neither was color-blind. Finally the man was asked to produce the flag itself as evidence. After some delay he was able to do so, and then the mystery was explained. It had been red, but it had been exposed to the weather so long that all the red was bleached out, and it was but a dirty yellow!

Oh, the lives eternally wrecked by the yellow gospels of the day—the bloodless theories of unregenerate men that send their hearers to their doom instead of stopping them on their downward road!

Beware of John MacArthur's Bloodless Yellow Gospel

When I read Dr. Ironside warn about “the bloodless theories of unregenerate men,” I immediately thought about Dr. John MacArthur, who errantly claims that Jesus' blood is not sprinkled upon the heavenly Mercy Seat. According to Mr. MacArthur, Jesus' liquid blood flowed from His body into the ground at Calvary and stayed there! Mr. MacArthur, when called out for trodding under foot the blood of Jesus Christ as an unholy (common) thing, he deceitfully tried to save-face, by claiming that he has the utmost respect and faith in the blood of Christ, BUT only as it symbolically represents Jesus' death.

I tell you, kindly but confidently, that Mr. MacArthur is a wolf in sheep's clothing. The largest independent Baptist church on Guam, who employ several dozen Bob Jones graduates on their staff for their school and college, aggressively promote John MacArthur (and also Ray Comfort and Paul Washer). These three men are all unsaved reprobates, Calvinists, who add discipleship to sonship, perverting the simplicity that is in Christ (which is THE GOSPEL).

John MacArthur preaches “ANOTHER GOSPEL.” His own words condemn him. On Mr. MacArthur's website, he plainly refutes the truth that Jesus had God's blood flowing in His veins. And I quote: “One pastor said to me, 'He had the blood of God.' ... It's heretical to call the blood of Jesus Christ the blood of God.” Please read Acts 20:27-28, “For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God. Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.” The preceding Scripture passage plainly refers to God the Father, Who purchased the Church with HIS OWN BLOOD!

Why should this be so hard to accept? I mean, Jesus was born of a virgin woman (Matthew 1:23), who never had carnal knowledge with any man. So if Jesus did not have an earthly father, then He must have had God's blood in Him, since the Lord was miraculously conceived by the Holy Spirit! Yes, Mr. MacArthur is correct that Jesus was 100% man, but He was also 100% God! The reason why Jesus was able to live His earthly life without ever sinning even one time, is only because He was God in the flesh, and did NOT have an earthly Father. For John MacArthur to deny that Jesus had the blood of God the Father is effectively to deny Jesus' deity!!!

Respectfully, Pastor John MacArthur further states concerning the blood:

“There are others who say that there's something magical in the blood, something in the blood itself that washes sin away, when the Scripture teaches it was the death of Christ that atoned for sin and He shed His literal blood in sacrificial evidence of the pouring out of His life for sin, but there was nothing magic about that blood itself that could wash sin. And so this heresy has begun to develop, strangely enough.”

SOURCE: Dr. John MacArthur, 'The Blood Of Christ,' January 1987

Kindly, Mr. MacArthur is a theological liar. In the preceding quote he says that it is Christ's DEATH, and not His BLOOD, that redeems us from God's Law and sin. But read for yourself what saith the Scripture:

Hebrews 9:11-12, “But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building; Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.”

1st John 1:7, “But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.”

Revelation 1:5, “And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood.”

In Mr. MacArthur's commentary on the Bible, which I have my own hard copy of, he comments for Hebrews 9:12 that Jesus' blood is merely representative, and is a reference, to His blood. THAT IS A LIE OF SATAN which Robert B. Thieme, William E. Vine and Merrill F. Unger all succumbed to. If God meant death, He would have said “death.” But He didn't, the Holy Bible says “BY HIS OWN BLOOD” He has “obtained eternal redemption for us.”

In MacArthur's same article “The Blood Of Christ,” he says that on Calvary Jesus “SPILLED” His blood. My friend, Jesus did NOT “spill” His blood, which implies it was an accident. Jesus shed His blood on the cross and He sprinkled it on the Mercy Seat in Heaven.

In the article MacArthur says he has no idea how Christ's blood has anything to do with believer's today. ...

“You say, "Well how can the blood of Christ who died nineteen hundred years ago have anything to do with me today?" I'll be really honest with you, I don't have the faintest idea...”

SOURCE: Dr. John MacArthur, 'The Blood Of Christ,' January 1987

Unbelievable! Folks, Jesus' precious blood is sprinkled upon the heavenly Mercy Seat, in the presence of God the Father (Hebrews 9:12, 24; 12:24). When you and I sin, God the Father sees Christ's blood instead of our sins!!! THANK GOD FOR THE BLOOD!!!

I feel sorry for those young people who died in the needless train wreck, who had no idea that their lives were about to suddenly end! Our nation's churches are infected with the Lordship Salvation heresy. If your church uses, sells and /or supports the modern Alexandrian-based Bible versions, you are pulling on the same rope as the Devil. All of the modern Bible versions corrupt the biblical meaning of repentance. Instead, these evil perversions of God's Word claim that a person must change their heart and life to receive God's gift of eternal life. Beware of the modern Bible versions!!!

John MacArthur summarizes his article by saying:

Well I hope all those excerpts from my past sermons have provided clarification where I stand on this issue is where the Bible stands. In summary, I believe that to speak of Christ's blood as it was shed on the cross is the same as referring to His death. They aren't two separate elements, as some people are trying to teach. The Bible just doesn't teach that. If they were, we'd be saying, "Christ's physical blood had some mystical saving quality to it that had to be added to His death." Thus saying His death was insufficient and His blood was insufficient. The sacrificial death of Christ was and always will be that which atones for sin.

SOURCE: Dr. John MacArthur, 'The Blood Of Christ,' January 1987

That is so wrong! The work of the Old Testament high priest was a prototype, a shadow, of things to come, of Christ's work as our heavenly High Priest (Hebrews 4:14-16; Romans 8:34). If Christ's death on the cross were all that is required for our salvation, then He didn't need to raise up from the dead as our High Priest. Jesus died on the cross as our sacrificial Lamb, but He raised up as our heavenly High Priest!!! Jesus needed to be born of a virgin. He needed to live a perfect life without sin. He needed to die on the cross in our place. He needed to raise up from the dead. He needed to ascend into Heaven with the blood (John 20:17; Hebrews 9:24; 12:24).

Dr. MacArthur is slick with his words, trying to make the issue one of diminishing the importance of Christ's vicarious (substitutionary) death on the cross, but no one ever said Christ's blood was more important than His death. The truth is that everything was leading up to the blood being sprinkled upon the heavenly Mercy Seat. This necessitated Jesus' virgin birth, because if the Lord had a human father then He would have also had a sin-nature, which means that He couldn't have been the spotless sacrifice for the sins of the world. Jesus is the Lamb of God, Who taketh away the sins of the whole world (John 1:29).

What expertise do today's pastors have? What makes me right? How do you know what I am telling you is the truth? Well, you need to investigate for yourself! “SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES” as the Lord commanded us in John 5:39. In fact, Jesus said the very reason for searching the Scriptures is to “THINK YE HAVE ETERNAL LIFE.” John 5:39, “Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.” You cannot show me anything in the Holy Bible to support the heretical teachings of Calvinists, who ADD reformation (a changed life) to regeneration (being born-again). I say this all kindly. I do not condemn anyone for their difference of opinion. I respect the right of others to disagree with me, for that is what makes America great! Albeit, the Word of God very plainly teaches that salvation is only for the ungodly man with faith, who “worketh not” (Romans 4:5b).

Just as the train flagman waved a yellowed flag, worn by the sun and elements over time, so also has a century of corrupt theologians, corrupt Bible study aids and corrupt Bible colleges deteriorated the purity of God's Word and the clarity of the Gospel message!!! The biggest problem is apathy, but who cares, right? The average pastor today is a coward, indifferent toward the ongoing Bible issue debate, indifferent concerning the battle over the inspiration of the King James Bible, indifferent concerning the heresy of asking Jesus into one's heart to be saved, indifferent toward the truth in general. The average pastor (although many are too proud to admit it), merely approaches his profession in the clergy as just that... a career! A genuine man of God prioritizes preaching the truth over financial security.

There is a very good reason why John the Baptist lived off the land, had no mortgage, owned no earthly possessions and needed nothing from the people that he ministered to, which is so that John could rip their faces off, preaching the painful truth that most people dread hearing, and there was nothing they could do about it!!! You cannot fire a man who doesn't work for you! You cannot starve a man who eats locusts and wild honey for his sustenance! You cannot threatened a preacher who wears camel skins and needs nothing from anyone!!! To the same extent that a pastor is attached to this temporary world, he will sellout!!!

“DON'T GET ADJUSTED” (an awesome MP3 sermon by Pastor Lester Roloff, “You lose out when you get adjusted to living down here!”

Please watch this awesome video sermon by Pastor Ralph “Yankee” Arnold titled, Calvinism Destroyed With A Parable.” Every Christian leader and believer ought to be against Calvinism, which is a doctrine of devils. Calvinism is a powerful weapon of the Devil, which combines holy living with faith, perverting the Gospel truth. The gift of God is eternal life, which is without works.

So you see, WRONG INFORMATION is deadly!!!

My friend, it is no coincidence that John MacArthur teaches a corrupt Gospel of partial faith in Christ plus works, along with his denial of the power of the precious blood of Jesus. One affects the other. From the shed blood of the innocent animal slain by God to provide clothing for Adam and Eve in Genesis, to the robes of the saints washed in the blood of the Lamb in Revelation, the Holy Bible proclaims the necessity, redeeming power and theme of the blood of Jesus! The book of Hebrews is all about Jesus' blood sacrifice! The following passage of Scripture cannot be ignored, as Mr. MacArthur ignores. The Holy Bible plainly teaches that Jesus APPEARED IN THE PRESENCE OF THE FATHER ON OUR BEHALF...

Hebrews 9:21-26, “Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry. And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission. It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these. For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us: Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others; For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.”

Clearly, Jesus Christ ascended into Heaven after His resurrection with the literal liquid blood that He shed on the cross, and appeared in the presence of God the Father in the Holy Place (Hebrews 9:12), to sprinkle that precious redeeming blood (Hebrews 12:24) on the Mercy Seat, to appease the Father's wrath (propitiation) against all them that believe the Gospel. Romans 3:25, “Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God.” Romans 5:9, “Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.” Contrary to Dr. MacArthur's false teaching that God really means “death” when He says “blood,” you have read for yourself that the King James Bible speaks about THE BLOOD!!!

John MacArthur preaches “another spirit” and “another Gospel” (2nd Corinthians 11:3-4).

Beware of Misleading Yellow Gospels in the Churches Today!

Billions of people worldwide are being horribly misled by yellow-flag-waving preachers like John MacArthur, Ray Comfort and Paul Washer! Humbly, I am diligently doing my best, by God's grace, to expose the yellow gospels of our day. Many preachers think they are preaching the Gospel, but are in fact teaching a watered-down, weather-worn, ineffective, corrupted, works-based, yellow gospel that cannot produce the new birth.

Billions of people will one day spend eternity burning in the fires of Hell, because they died in their sins without the righteousness of God, which is solely by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Philippians 3:9, “And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith.” The Devil's greatest weapon is to con people into living the Christian life without ever being born-again.

Kindly, when I hear Evangelist Paul Washer saying you cannot write the date, time and place that you were saved in back of your Bible, because your life must evidence your faith to be valid, then I know Paul is not saved. Paul predicates salvation upon a changed life, which is works for salvation. That is reformation, not regeneration!!! God saves a man, and then the Holy Spirit changes that man, not himself!!!

We've got a bunch of pansy's behind the pulpit today, who nonchalantly approach the theological soundness of the Scriptures. They are shallow, going along to get along with the most hideous of doctrinal perversion, supporting multiple conflicting Bible versions and gospels, which evidences their insincerity!!! God deliver us from Caspar Milquetoast preachers! I think one of the saddest commentaries of our time is the trend of pastors who are not preachers!

Becoming a pastor is a profession, a mere job; but being a preacher is a noble calling from God, a cause! I would 10,000 times rather be a preacher than a pastor, and the man who cannot PREACH ought not ever step behind any pulpit!!! Dr. Jack Hyles (1926-2001) is right, “Preaching is truth set on fire!” We need a lot more fire in our churches today, because all I see are refrigeration units!!! The churches are beyond lukewarm, they are dead!!!

The Bible plainly teaches that eternal life is a “gift” from God. Romans 6:23, “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Now, if I were to buy you a gift, and offer it to you on the condition that you improve your behavior in any way, it could not truly be a gift. It would be a reward, for your good behavior! If something is truly a gift, you can freely take it without obligation.

So, when any false preacher; such as, Paul Washer (who is a staunch Calvinist in doctrine), says that you cannot write your name, date, time and place in the back of your Bible that you were born-again, he is teaching an accursed false gospel (2nd Corinthians 11:3-4). That false prophet is predicating receiving the free gift of God upon reformation (or the intent to reform).

If eternal life (which includes the forgiveness of all our sins) is truly a free gift from God (and it most certainly is), then you can receive it instantly, confidently and without any obligation whatsoever, now or hereafter. You simply take a gift! Salvation is received, not achieved. Salvation is a take proposition, not a give proposition. Eternal life is the free gift of God, with which the heresy of Lordship Salvation is completely incompatible!!!

We Need to Pay Attention to the Details!

In the true story that Pastor Harry Ironside told early, I cannot help but hold the flagman accountable in my thinking. He was not colorblind. He just got lazy! The once red flag clearly was faded out and no longer vivid red in its appearance. A train traveling at full speed makes it difficult for the engineer to see, let alone a faded flag. This type of carelessness is very common amongst the human race. Commercial jetliners have fallen out of the sky because one maintenance employee slacked off on his duties, or in many cases, it was simply an innocent oversight.

Something as simple as leaving tape on a pitot tube has killed hundreds of people when the commercial airliner crashed. In one case in South America, a wasp had built its home in a pitot tube while the plane sat idle for a few days outside a maintenance hanger, which caused the plane to crash and hundreds of passengers died. Heaven only knows the horrifying consequences throughout history which ensued because of the smallest job that didn't get done. Pastor Jack Hyles is so correct when he says, “The most important job is the one that doesn't get done!”

In the case of the preceding helpful illustration given by Pastor Ironside, a flagman didn't pay close enough attention to the details of his job. I couldn't think of a better and more applicable illustration which describes the multitude of lackadaisical pastors and irresponsible churches today. Church and pastors today don't pay attention to the details of the Bibles they use and promote. They don't pay attention to the preachers they promote and follow. They don't pay attention to the clarity of the Gospel. The reason why is because THEY DON'T CARE!!! Their pastors and staff get paid either way. They enjoy attending their religious fun centers and social clubs, which doesn't require being doctrinally sound, so who cares, right?

I'm talking about the shallow Bob Jones University crowd who are infected with the toxic falsehood of Calvinism today. I'm talking about the ungodly cult at Harvest Baptist Church on Guam who preach Satan's lie of Lordship Salvation. I'm talking about the corrupt Moody Bible Institute in Chicago. I'm talking about the toxic First Baptist Church of Dallas and their modern Bible versions and Lordship Salvation! I'm talking about the cesspool of iniquity at Pensacola Christian College and their deadly Lordship Salvation heresy! I'm talking about any Bible college or church that uses, sells and/or promotes the Devil's counterfeit Bible versions!

We are at spiritual war ladies and gentleman, and it's lonely out here on the frontlines fighting for God. “Where Were You During The Battle?” (an MP3 sermon by Pastor Jack Hyles; the sin of neutrality in the Work of God). It hurts when fellow Baptists disassociate with me, shunning me away for telling THE TRUTH! Ladies and gentleman, there is only one Gospel. That “Gospel” (i.e., Good News) is that Jesus is the Christ Who DIED on the cross for our sins, He was BURIED, and He bodily RESURRECTED from the dead three days later (1st Corinthians 15:1-6). The only stipulation to believing the Gospel to be saved is that you realize your sinnership. That is, you need to know what you are being saved from, which is, from the curse of God's Law because of your sins, and your just punishment in a burning Hell forever.

It is easy to stand for truth when it doesn't cost you anything to do so, but it's a whole different story when there's a price to pay. I have been kicked out of several churches, called a “cult” along with Pastor Jack Hyles, told I cannot attend church services anymore, and mistreated horrible by umpteen wicked pastors, simply because I told THE TRUTH that the modern Bible versions are corrupted by Satan, and that Lordship Salvation is a perversion of God's grace.

I AM RIGHT about the King James Bible and the Gospel of free grace. I have been shunned away by pastors for giving hard-copies of the excellent book by Michael P. Bowen, “I NEVER KNEW YOU.” The apostle Paul was also greatly despised and hated for telling THE TRUTH. Galatians 4:16, “Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?” 2nd Corinthians 11:6, “But though I be rude in speech, yet not in knowledge; but we have been throughly made manifest among you in all things.”

I have paid the price for taking a stand for THE TRUTH! I know the pain of being rejected by my church family at Harvest Baptist Church on Guam in 2014, and banned from coming back simply to attend church.

I know the pain of being banned in writing by scumbag Pastor Jeff Redlin at Pensacola Christian College's Campus Church in 2022, told never to return because I exposed their damnable teaching of Satan's Lordship Salvation. God's wrath is upon the PCC cult. They are damned of God for preaching a counterfeit plan of salvation.

I know the pain of being deliberately mistreated and dissed by Pastor Bill Adam's feminist toxic wife and her henpecked husband at Smyrna Baptist Church in Pensacola in 2024. They made it very clear that I am not welcomed in their church. Sadly, they distribute Jack Chick's poisonous Chick Tracts at Smyrna, which pervert the Gospel of free grace.

I know the pain of being told in 2025 never to return to the shameful Family Baptist Church in Pensacola, because the pastor's ungodly wife wears her sexy worldly pants and made an issue of my preaching on social media against women wearing pants. Her immature henpecked husband and his verbally abusive hot-tempered father chose to kick me and my wife out of church, without even bothering to talk with us. That is the type of abusive people they are!

God will justly deal harshly without mercy with Bobby and Brad Moffett, the same way they showed us no mercy, grace or understanding (Matthew 7:1). God's judgment is upon Brad Moffett's ungodly wife for wearing the attire of an harlot in public (Proverbs 7:10). Shame on all of them! The incompetent leaders of Family Baptist Church in Pensacola at 5454 W, Mobile Highway are carnally-minded neo-evangelicals, but I am a faithful fundamentalist Christian. They hated me without a cause, like the Pharisees hated Jesus, merely because of who I am.

So, I don't have a church to attend, but God knows I want too, but they won't let me, go figure! I am despised by these churches because I sincerely told THE TRUTH.

At Harvest Baptist Church on Guam, they wickedly invited Ray Comfort to preach there long ago around 2007. Ray Comfort Hinders This Woman From Being Saved, By Pressuring Her To Stop Her Sinning!!! Ray Comfort is preaching ANOTHER GOSPEL!!! One of the associate pastors (Jared Baldwin) at Harvest Baptist Church told me in 2015 that he thinks John MacArthur, Ray Comfort and Paul Washer are all men of God! I seriously question the salvation of any fool who praises men who are corrupt concerning the Gospel. I say this all in a spirit of God's unconditional love, but also with a deep concern for the spiritual well-being of fellow Baptists. The pastors of Harvest Baptist Church are in league with the Devil. And so also is Pensacola Christian College, who are in bed committing spiritual adultery with the Harvest camp in Guam. Harvest's plays Jeff Redlin's toxic sermons on their KHMG 88.1 FM radio station, poisoning Micronesia with his damned of God Lordship Salvation garbage. Birds of a feather flock together. They're all rats in the woodpile!

Someone needs to speak up for God! Psalms 94:16, “Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?” Someone needs to make some noise as Malcom X said. Malcolm X was an unsaved reprobate, a Black Muslim, but he was correct that the way to be heard is to “MAKE SOME NOISE!” I want churches to stop supporting the Devil's counterfeit Bible versions. I want pastors to stop selectively caring about people. I want preachers to stop supporting a dozen different conflicting Bible revisions and use only the inspired King James Bible. It's okay to dream, right?

I want churches to stop dabbling with two different plans of salvation, and teach only the Gospel of free grace by faith alone in Christ Jesus. I want churches to rid themselves of false prophets like Dr. John MacArthur, who errantly says, “There is no such thing as a childhood conversion.” I want churches to stop promoting Evangelist Paul Washer, who errantly says, “No, no, if you don't have works, you're going to Hell!” I want churches to start caring enough to pay attention to the details, and rid their tract display of any garbage literature requiring people to “turn away from your sinful ways” or “surrender your life to Christ” to be saved. These things are NOT a part of the Gospel!!!

So, beware my friend, because most pastors and churches today are waving yellowed flags of a false gospel message, worn away by the apostate doctrinal decadence of our ear-ticklin', back-scratchin', penny-pinchin', soft-soapin', pink-tea-and-lemonade, pantywaist, cowardly and wicked generation. These are certainly the “perilous times” foretold in Scripture (2nd Timothy 3:1-7) in which we live today! Even so, come, Lord Jesus!!!

A GOOD SINNER (The grace of God is only for poor, vile, hell-deserving, no good, sinners!)

THANK YOU dear reader for your continued interest in my website ministry. To God alone by all the praise, credit and glory, for without Jesus we can do nothing (John 15:5).

A Godly Wife Submits To Her Husband As “The Boss”

noreply@blogger.com (David J. Stewart) — Wed, 15 Apr 2026 15:16:00 +0000

Ephesians 5:22, “Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.”

Some wives hate being corrected and don't want a boss for a husband. I saw this meme that Mrs. Marjorie Younce (Pastor Max D. Younce's wife) posted in May of 2022 on her Facebook page, in which she admirably calls her husband, “The Boss.” I love that loyalty! The biblical truth that a husband is THE BOSS in any marriage is a concept that most women resent, hate, reject and punish their husband for trying to be. Like it or not ladies, your husband is: “The Boss”!

“The Boss and Me”

No godly husband likes to be a “Boss,” to a lazy hound dog for a wife. Mrs. Younce has a godly attitude toward her husband, that he is her “Boss” and she submits to him. Pastor Younce went to Heaven on August 11, 2023. I miss my ministry friend. I pray for Mrs. Younce regularly. I wanted to share this godly woman's testimony with other women and wives, because feminist rebellion is the root cause of millions of divorces today in America.

1st Peter 3:1-6, “Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives; While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear. Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price. For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands: Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement.”

Can A Person Be Saved And Still Pray To Mary?

noreply@blogger.com (David J. Stewart) — Tue, 14 Apr 2026 17:06:00 +0000

1st Timothy 2:5-6, “For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.”

In my humble opinion, praying to Mary will not prevent you from going to Heaven, if you are solely trusting what Jesus did on Calvary's cross to pay for your sins—believing that He died, was buried, but then physically resurrected from the dead three days later. This is “the gospel,” the 'Good News,' by which all who believe it are instantly, irrevocably and forever saved (Romans 1:16). Faith is the only righteous thing that I can do.

That being said, Jesus is the ONLY Mediator between God the Father and humanity. 1st Timothy 2:5-6, “For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.” So, if you do pray to Mary, you are just wasting your time and going against the plain teaching of inspired Scripture. Mary was a sinner, just like everyone else, and she has no special power of influence with the Son of God. To pray to Mary is the horrible sin of idolatry.

Roman Catholicism is a prisonhouse of false religion. The wicked Vatican has sinfully fabricated many false teachings concerning Mary in an effort to venerate (worship) her. Mary was not immaculately born, she had a human mother and father.

Nor did Mary remain a perpetual virgin as Catholicism strangely teaches. The Bible clearly teaches in Matthew 13:55-56 that Jesus had half brothers and sisters by Mary and Joseph. Joseph was their biological father, but not Jesus' father. Joseph was his Dad that raised Him, but God the Father is Jesus' biological Father. Jesus was virgin born, a miracle wrought by the Holy Spirit without any physical contact with Mary (contrary to what pervert Mormons teach).

Pope Pius XII defined the dogma of the Assumption of Mary on November 1, 1950, stating that Mary was taken body and soul into Heaven at the end of her earthly life. This belief emphasizes her unique role in salvation and is celebrated annually on August 15. Here is a disturbing long list of false doctrines FABRICATED by the Roman Catholic cult over the past several centuries. God's curse is upon the Catholic religion, which sadly has 1.6 billion followers today. Since Catholics believe that Mary was sinless, and the Bible plainly teaches in Romans 6:23b that “the wages of sin is death,” they had to concoct another heresy that Mary never died, she was simply taken into Heaven by God. We know that is false! One heresy begets another false teaching, and another, and another; hence, Catholicism!

Getting back to the question question about praying to Mary. It is a sin. Praying to anyone other than members of the Godhead (Trinity) is the evil of idolatry. Catholic leaders are so evil that they've even removed God's second commandment from His Ten Commandments, which forbids bowing to graven images. It is perfectly acceptable to pray to either or all members of the Godhead, in lieu of the fact that there is only one true and living God (Deuteronomy 6:4).

It is difficult for me to comprehend how any thinking person could join such an obvious hoax of a religion. Reports indicate that since 1950, approximately 216,000 children have been sexually abused by clergy in the French Catholic Church alone, with similar patterns observed in other countries, including the United States. The issue has been widely documented, revealing systemic failures in addressing and reporting these abuses. All toll, MILLIONS of defenseless children worldwide have been sexually preyed upon by deranged Catholic leaders. And yet, wicked parents continue to feed their precious children to these wolves in sheep's clothing under the guise of religion.

I cannot warn you enough to steer clear of the deadly cults of Roman and Russian Orthodox Catholicism. They have different headquarter locations (Rome, Italy and Moscow, Russia), but they serve the same boss, Satan (2nd Corinthians 11:13-15). The Devil is a beautiful liar! Catholicism is of the Devil. We should never pray to patron saints like St. Anthony (his statue is often displayed with his dog) because the Bible strictly forbids it.

Revelation 22:8-9, “And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things. Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God.”

When I lived on the island of Guam for 17 years, I was at my neighbour's house one day and his wife invited some ladies over from their Catholic parish down the street (St. Jude's). At their parish they passed a 3-foot tall statue of Our Lady of Fatima around from house to house, where it stayed at each house for a couple months. Each family would decorate their living room as if God Himself were coming to visit. I saw that wicked group of women bow in prayer to that Satanic statue in idolatry, and I got out of there as fast as I could, because I could feel the Devil's presence. Idolatry is a horrible sin, which brings God's judgment.

I humbly believe it is possible for a Christian to foolishly pray to Mary in ignorance. However, if a person is genuinely born again, the indwelling Holy Spirit will convict that individual about the present sins in their life, including praying to Mary (Hebrews 12:6-8). God is not an absent parent. He will chastise His children. The inspired Word of God is abundantly clear that we are only to pray to the Father in Jesus' name. Someone has said that as believers we pray to the Father, through the Son, in the power of the Holy Spirit. I like that teaching.

That is what 1st Timothy 2:5 means. Man is sinful. God the Father is holy and perfect. Man was unable to fellowship with God, so Jesus (God the Son) came into the world to die on a cross 2,000 years ago to gap the bridge between man and God the Father. Now that Jesus is risen from the dead and has ascended into Heaven as our intercessory High Priest (Romans 8:32; Hebrews 4:14-16), we can access the Father's throne of grace at any time night or day 365.25 days a year. So, there is absolutely no need to pray to Mary. Again, to do so is fruitless. Mary cannot do anything to answer our prayers. Catholics have the weird idea that since Mary is Jesus earthly mother that she has special power of influence with Christ, but that is not true. Even Jesus downplayed such foolish thinking.

Matthew 12:47-50, "Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to speak with thee. But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren? And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren! For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother."

In this passage, Jesus plainly showed that his mother doesn't carry any special power of influence with Him. Jesus clearly said that whosoever obeys the will of the Father (to believe on Him - John 6:40) is equal to His mother. So, people who sinfully pray to Mary might as well pray to you or me. Mary is nothing with God. She was a dirty sinner, although a virtuous young woman as well. Mary needed to trust Jesus as her personal Savior too, or she would have gone to burn in hell forever. Thankfully, Mary did trust Jesus, calling Him “my Saviour” in Luke 1:47. Even so, come, Lord Jesus!

Thank God For Fundamentalist Christianity

noreply@blogger.com (David J. Stewart) — Mon, 13 Apr 2026 21:00:00 +0000

Jeremiah 6:16, “Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.”

I am humbled that a ministry friend made this photo using A.I. The photo is of his pastor Larry Lowe far left, then Curtis Hutson, John R. Rice, Jack Hyles, myself and Steven Anderson. He said these are his favorite Bible preachers. I don't think I am worthy to be in the same group of men, but it humbles my heart that the man who made this photo does. Jesus said without Him we can do nothing (John 15:5). If there is any greatness in me at all, it is the precious LORD JESUS CHRIST! Thank God for Christian fundamentalism!

The Wickedness Of Feminism Is An Ugly Thing

noreply@blogger.com (David J. Stewart) — Mon, 13 Apr 2026 11:30:00 +0000

I went through Whataburger's drive thru yesterday to get a Whatacatch fish sandwich meal. I enjoy eating those tasty sandwiches with a slice of cheese. Yeah buddy! As I sat waiting for my order, I noticed the license plate of the vehicle in front of me and took this

Nothing To Be Proud Of For A Woman

I couldn't help but chuckle in amusement. I mean, why boast to the world that you are a female who joined the U.S. military? Ooooh! Are we all supposed to be somehow impressed that a woman became a soldier? Dear reader, that does not impress me one bit. Anyone can enroll into the military. It actually irritates, frustrates and annoys me that many American women are shamefully abandoning their traditional roles as wives, mothers and homemakers. God pity the wicked career woman! 1st Timothy 5:14-15, “I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully. For some are already turned aside after Satan.” Today most American women are turned aside after Satan!

I would be very impressed if I saw a license plate which read: “Woman Homemaker” or “I'm a Mother.” But the message “Woman Veteran” is offensive to me as a man and a Christian. Why does she feel the urge to brag to others that she is a soldier? Clearly she has man issues. It is just a sign of the depths to which feminist wickedness has corrupted American women.

I know that this truthful article will offend some people, and so be it. I am sick and tired of feminism being forced upon society. Due to political activism and feminist bias, you cannot even watch a movie anymore with seeing women giving orders to men, women as top generals and the U.S. President, one woman defeating a dozen masculine men in combat, et cetera. It is as laughable as it is non-plausible. Why does the Devil's crowd feel so compelled to elevate women to ridiculous heights over men?

You are not right with God dear reader if the following ungodly TV trash commercials doesn't make you upset. These Satanic commercials shamefully portray boys and men as being dumb, incompetent and inept. Can you image if these commercials instead put down girls and women? There would be a war in society! But men and boys are being horribly disparaged and no one cares! This is just further evidence of the inherent rebellious sin nature of humanity.

Anti-Men Commercials | 2 | 3

The inspired King James Bible teaches that Christian ladies are supposed to maintain a low profile, having “a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price” (1st Peter 3:4b). Godly women don't go around bragging that they once became a soldier (which by very nature is a masculine thing to do). It just goes against the grain for a woman to join the military. Every female I have ever known to join the military had a bad attitude.

American society has strayed so far from God in 2026 that most women (including Christian women) don't even realize how much they've been adversely influenced by feminist ideologies.

22 Signs That You're An Ungodly Feminist

Here's a simple test to determine if you've been seriously negatively impacted by the evils of feminism ladies. You are entangled in the Devil's feminist trap if:

You esteem a career as being just as important as being a mother.
You don't believe in having big families.
You don't think you need your husband's permission to make big decisions.
You reject the Bible truth that your husband is your boss (Ephesians 5:22).
You wear pants in public (1st Timothy 2:9; Deuteronomy 22:5).
You do not show general respect for all men.
You defend pro-choice abortion rights.
You think homosexuals should be allowed to get married.
You support the Democrat party.
You resent Sarah in the Bible for calling her husband Abraham, “lord.”
You think women have a right to become pastors.
You do not feel perfectly at peace with being a Stay-At-Home wife and mother.
You approve of ungodly TV commercials that cast men as being dumb and unreliable.
You sass your husband and make inflammatory statements to upset him.
Your husband's laundry piles up but you do nothing.
Your husband doesn't eat home-cooked meals on a regular basis.
You slander and cast negativity upon your husband behind his back on your phone.
You show more respect for pastors than for your own husband.
You think it is a good thing for women to join the military.
You only submit to your husband when you feel like it.
You fail to understand that your whole purpose for existence as a woman is to be a “help meet” for your husband (Genesis 2:18).
Your response when reading an article like this is: “Well what about my husband?”

If the things I have just listed offend, shock, unsettle; or God forbid, even make you laugh in scorn, you are not right with God dear woman. A godly woman reverences her husband in the stead of Christ Himself. Ephesians 5:22, “Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.” The Bible doesn't command wives to obey a perfect husband, it says to submit to your own husband as if he were God.

Granted, this does not include if he tells you to do something illegal that will land you in prison. A wife is never obligated by God to do anything that is unsafe, illegal or immoral. God will defend your right not to obey under those extenuating circumstances as a wife. But if your husband dreads going to church and wants you to stay home with him on Sundays, you obey him and stay home from church! Perhaps you say, “That's unfair!” Sure it is, life's unfair, join the club! It wasn't fair that the perfect sinless Lamb of God was spit upon, beaten beyond human recognition and then crucified for our sins. Talk about unfair! Keep that in mind ladies before you call the cops on your husband, run to a women's shelter or file for divorce.

Feminism is a very ugly and wicked thing. That female's license plate which reads: “Woman Veteran” speaks 1,000 words as to her sinful pride, feminist bias and wrong attitude toward womanhood. Who cares if you served in the U.S. military as a woman! Why not add some bumper stickers to your car which read: “I had an abortion,” or “I murdered my baby!,” or “I'm a lesbian,” because bragging that your a “Woman Veteran” is nothing to be proud if in God's eyes. Big deal, you learned in Boot Camp how to toss hand-grenades over a wall. You learned how to fire an automatic weapon at other people. You just proved how tough you are as a woman who is commanded by God to be feminine, meek and quiet in spirit. WRONG WAY!

The very fact that she had the message “Woman Veteran” printed on her license plate shows her sinful arrogance, feminist spirit and wicked pride. She is boasting that she did something masculine, of which she is contemptible, not honorable. You may disagree, but that is how I see it as a fundamentalist Bible preacher. I see nothing meek or quiet in spirit about her stupid license plate. Christian ladies are supposed to maintain a low profile, having “a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price” (1st Peter 3:4b).

Godly women don't go around bragging that they are soldiers, the least most significant thing that any woman could achieve in her lifetime. We have enough shameful G.I. Janes today. What our dysfunctional generation today desperately needs is more stay-at-home mothers and submissive wives. Kindly said, if being a military veteran is the proudest achievement of your lifetime as a woman, as far as I'm concerned you're a LOSER!

It's Not Okay To Commit Adultery, Even If Your Wife Approves

noreply@blogger.com (David J. Stewart) — Sun, 12 Apr 2026 17:17:00 +0000

Exodus 20:14, “Thou shalt not commit adultery.”

The old adage is true: Be careful where you sow your wild oats or you may one day pray for crop failure. In our wicked American culture today, I have heard of numerous immoral situations where husbands and wives have an “open relationship.” Long time KISS rock band frontman and bassist Gene Simmons (real Jewish name: Chaim Witz) has publicly bragged of his philandering. Gene Simmons finally married his girlfriend Shannon Tweed on October 1, 2011, after dating her for 29 years. During those 29 years Gene Simmons publicly claimed to have slept with over 5,000 women, confirming the rumors surrounding his ungodly sexual exploits. Tragically, perverse American society today sees no problem with such a wicked lifestyle of fornication. What saith the Scripture? Hebrews 13:4, “Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.”

Dear reader, in any marriage, if a wife approves of her husband having a girlfriend that doesn't exempt him from God's commandment “Thou shalt not commit adultery.” If your wife gave you permission to have sex with another women, you didn't cheat on her, but you did cheat on God! The LORD never gives any married man permission to commit adultery. David was king over all of Israel, yet God punished him for committing adultery with Uriah's wife, Bathsheba.

A common excuse that adulterous married men make is that “I am oversexed.” No, Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001) was right, “You are under charactered!” No man or woman ever has God's permission to commit sexual immorality, regardless of your physical or emotional needs. People will come up with all kinds of crazy ideas to justify their wickedness.

Adultery is a horrible sin that must be shunned and avoided by implementing common sense rules for married couples. It is this humble Bible preacher's opinion that at no time should any married man or woman be alone with the opposite gender. You're just making a provision for the flesh if you do. Adultery often starts with seemingly innocent interactions, such as flirting or casual conversations, which can lead to deeper emotional connections. It's important to recognize that these initial actions can set the stage for more serious breaches of trust in a relationship. This is why I am 100% against younger wives working in the workplace. The Bible teaches that young Christian women belong at home; so if you don't like that, get mad at God because He said it (1st Timothy 5:14-15).

Marriages are destroyed from within, not without. All you need to fall in love is a pulse; but to stay married you need a plan. Earnest Hemingway was absolutely right, “All things truly wicked start from innocence.” If you are married and desire to please God by being faithful, then you need to declare war on flirtation, lust, neighing after your neighbor's spouse and other seemingly lesser sins that often lead to ruin. God deserves better from all of us.

“You're looking at tonight at as pure a man as you'll meet in your life!” —Pastor Jack Hyles, a quote from the May 14, 1989 sermon, “Weathering The Storm!”

The Omission Is The Most Powerful Lie

noreply@blogger.com (David J. Stewart) — Sat, 11 Apr 2026 16:55:00 +0000

John 8:44, “Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.”

Prolific writer George Orwell correctly said that the “omission” (leaving something out) is the most deadly form of lie, which is exactly what Satan has done to the Word of God...

“The omission is the most powerful form of lie, and it is the duty of the historian to ensure that those lies do not creep into the history books.” —George Orwell, author of ‘1984’

The most shady and dishonest business people, whether they be realtors, car salesmen, attorneys, pastors or Bible publishers, are the ones who don't tell you all the facts! We see this evidenced in the dialogue between the serpent and Eve in the Garden of Eden. The serpent (according to 2nd Corinthians 11:3 and Revelation 20:2) was Satan. The Devil didn't give Eve all the facts! The serpent tricked Eve, deceiving her.

The consequences were devastating! Oh, my friend, the serpent is still making empty promises today, perverting the meaning of repentance, and corrupting the plan of salvation, and distorting the person of Christ in the modern Bible PERversions. YOU CAN'T TRUST THE NEW BIBLE VERSIONS!!! Do you really think God is behind the insane Bible craze? One publisher claims, “This is it, this is God's Word.”

Another publisher says, “No, this is the one, this is God's Word!” Which one friend? This one? That one? Ask the average preacher and you won't get a straight answer. The average churchgoer today has a dozen Bible versions on their bookshelf at home! If they don't understand one, they consult another. My friend, God only authored ONE BOOK!

For example: You'll never learn about the threat of “Lucifer” in the new Bible versions, because they've removed his name completely. Lucifer is creeping into the churches right before our very eyes undetected, in the new Bible versions. The Devil doesn't mind if the naive world pictures him as a red devil with a pitchfork, who torments people in Hell. Nothing could be further from the truth. God torments unbelievers in Hell, not the Devil (2nd Thessalonians 1:8-9). The Bible teaches that Satan is very beautiful in appearance (Ezekiel 28:17).

We know that this prophecy in Ezekiel 28 against the Prince of Tyrus is a dual-prophecy (i.e., it has a double meaning), which also teaches about Lucifer (because Ezekiel 28:13-19 tells us that he was in the Garden of Eden, as well as placed in charge in Heaven, but his pride ruined him). Take note young people, Lucifer was destroyed because of his beauty and brilliance. Ezekiel 28:17, “Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.” Satan's primary targets are beautiful and handsome brilliant young people. SATAN WANTS YOU!!! Satan always goes after THE BEST!!!

Today's younger generation have been misled and wrongly taught to believe that the King James Bible was only for their grandparents, and is outdated, too prejudiced and old fashioned. I'm sick of hearing about “The Teen Bible” and “The Men's Bible” or “The Woman's Bible.” That “Women's Bible” nightmare is straight from the depths of Hell, teaching that God is actually “The Heavenly Mother” instead of The Heavenly Father. Boy, how wicked and dumb can people be? My friend, the King James Bible is everyone's Bible!!! I feel sorry for you if you have been deceived by the Devil and are using a water-down, modern, corrupted, counterfeit of God's Word. The inspired King James Bible, yes, that's the book for me!!!

The younger generation today, and bilingual Americans, are at the mercy of the counterfeit Bible versions, which change and pervert what it means to “REPENT,” thus corrupting the Gospel. WE ARE AT SPIRITUAL WAR WITH THE DEVIL!!!

“Now you say, 'Brother Hyles, you make an issue.' You dead sure better know I'll make an issue!” —BATTLE OF THE AGES (MP3, Dr. Jack Hyles, “The King James Bible crowd is going to come out on top!”)

Our Faithful Creator's Greatness Is Unsearchable

noreply@blogger.com (David J. Stewart) — Fri, 10 Apr 2026 09:00:00 +0000

Psalms 19:1-3, “The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge. There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.”

God is more than amazing! I've been watching astronomy videos on YouTube. The universe is absolutely amazing! The temperature in space is -454°F. Absolute zero is -459.6°F. Whereas one cubic yard of earth's air has quadrillions of atoms, one cubic yard of outer space has just one atom. That's why it is so cold.

When you look up at the stars at night, you're looking at light that has travelled trillions and quadrillions of miles. The nearest star to the earth, after our own sun, is Alpha Centauri, which is 25 trillion miles away (4.3 light years). The brightest star in the evening sky is Sirius, which is 50 trillion miles away (8.6 light years). The farthest known star from the earth is 164,601,510,449,141,016,463,851 miles away (165 sextillion miles; or 28 billion light years). Wow!

The intriguing beautiful planet Saturn has 146 moons! Wow!

Venus is the only planet in our solar system that actually rotates backwards. A day on Venus lasts about 243 earth days, which is longer than its year (equivalent to 225 earth days). This means that a single rotation on Venus' axis takes more time than the planet requires to orbit around the Sun. The earth takes 365.26 days to orbit the sun. I love astronomy!

I took these photos from my front yard this morning...

Psalms 145:3, “Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.”

Rebellious Wives Have No Excuses

noreply@blogger.com (David J. Stewart) — Thu, 09 Apr 2026 12:28:00 +0000

Genesis 3:6, “And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.”

Job 2:10a, “But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh...”

Proverbs 14:1, “Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands.”

If Eve were alive today and committed the same sin as she did in the Garden of Eden, I can just hear all the ungodly professional doctors making excuses for her sins. Today they would diagnose Eve with everything except THE TRUTH that she is not right with God.

“It's not her fault,” they would foolishly say, “She has a chemical imbalance of the brain.”

“It's not her fault,” they would foolishly say, “She has a hormonal imbalance.”

“It's not her fault,” they would foolishly say, “She is suffering from post traumatic stress.”

“It's not her fault,” they would foolishly say, “She has regressive anger from her teenage years.”

“It's not her fault,” they would foolishly say, “She has clinical depression.”

It ceases to amaze me how today's ungodly worthless so-called “professionals” and “experts” cannot see beyond their heathen training. To the man with a hammer in his hands everything starts looking like a nail stocking up. And today's medical quackery disguised as “seeking professional help” is nothing short of lunacy and snake oil salesmanship. The bogus concept of the “chemical imbalance” theory began to gain prominence in the late 20th century, particularly in the 1980s and 1990s. For the past half century neurologists and psychiatrists have been cruelly diagnosing people with a “chemical imbalance” of the brain, pumping their bodies full of potentially lethal drugs (and many have died). Those quacks for doctors should all be in prison! You simply cannot trust the medical industry. Be wise and use common sense.

I guarantee you that 99% of women who seek psychiatric help are rebellious and create their own problems. No doubt the so-called “professionals” and “experts” would disagree and make disparaging comments about my Bible preaching. I encourage you to listen to my long time ministry friend Pastor Max D. Younce (1935-2023) in this excellent 2-part sermon series...

Pastor Max Younce - Human Wisdom vs. Divine Wisdom, 1 of 2

Pastor Max Younce - Human Wisdom vs. Divine Wisdom, 2 of 2

Dr. Younce is absolutely correct that most people who seek psychiatric help are rebellious against God, which is their real problem. They're not crazy, they're rebellious!

“Insanity because we're in sin!” —Pastor Lester Roloff (1914-1982), “Steps In The Degeneration Of Our Nation”

There's nothing wrong in the United States that couldn't be remedied by a new generation of preaching fundamentalist Bible preachers who love people unconditionally with God's love (Jude 1:22), preach uncompromisingly without apology against sin (1st Timothy 5:20), earnestly contend for the Christian faith (Jude 1:3), preach a free grace Gospel (1st Corinthians 15:1-6), only from the inspired King James Bible (Proverbs 30:5-6), and go soulwinning door-to-door as did the early Christians (Acts 20:20).

We are living in a wicked generation of rebels who do not fear God. The vast majority of American women today have become angry, immodest, rebellious, spoiled rotten and empowered by the courts. But a godly woman rejects these trends and seeks to please God.

I know a Christian couple whose marriage was struggling. The fella's rebellious wife left him to go to an accursed women's shelter. Within one week those ungodly sinners running the shelter had convinced the man's wife to file for divorce. Psalms 1:1a, “Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly...” By the way, they professed to be “Christians.” Remember, even Satan appears as an angel of light (2nd Corinthians 11:13-15). Just because someone claims to be a “Christian,” doesn't mean you can trust them. Please don't let down your guard to trust their advice, they could be in league with the Devil.

Do you remember in the New Testament in Matthew 16:23 when Jesus called the Apostle Peter, “Satan”? Peter was thinking like the Devil. I wrote a needful article years ago called, “Satanic Christians.” We are living in a dangerous society today in America, surrounded by the never ending counsel of ungodly fools. If you are not grounded and settled in the inspired Holy Bible, you are vulnerable. And just like Eve was the weaker vessel in the Garden of Eden, so are women today more susceptible to Satanic deception (1st Timothy 2:11-15). Women are far more vulnerable to accept someone's demonic advice to file for divorce, than are men.

Rebellious wives have no excuses. I've seen irresponsible wives lift the carpet to sweep dirt underneath, instead of properly disposing of the filth. One teenage girl counted 50 beer cans underneath her mother's couch where she slept. The mother would finish another Old Style can of beer and just shove the empty can underneath the couch. These are Christian women. I am not condemning anyone, God forbid, I am simply saying that if the shoe fits, wear it.

What kind of wife are you? Proverbs 31:28, “Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.” Does your husband call you “blessed” Ma'am? Or does he say with millions of frustrated American men, “God damn my rebellious wife!” Woe unto you dear reader if you are the latter. God esteems a wife's rebellion as being equal to witchcraft. What saith the Scripture? 1st Samuel 15:23a, “For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry...” Are you in league with a witch?

Thank you for reading my ministry blog. Jesus is precious!!! To God alone be the glory.

God Is Good

noreply@blogger.com (David J. Stewart) — Wed, 08 Apr 2026 06:00:00 +0000

Psalms 145:9, “The LORD is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.”

I prayed the other day for the lost serviceman in Iran. The two Airforce soldiers ejected when Iran shot down their F-15E military jet on Good Friday. The pilot was rescued quickly, but the Weapons Systems Officer (WSO) was missing in action. Thank God, he was rescued 36 hours later by his peers in the U.S. military. The soldiers were both wounded in the incident from shrapnel when their jet was attacked by Iranian fire. The missing airman made the right choices. He climbed a 7,000 foot mountain and hid in a ridge to evade capture, and then using his radio made contact on Good Friday, simply saying: “God is good.”

At first the U.S. military thought it might be a trap, because of the religious fanaticism of Islam. But his commanding officers recognized his strong Christian faith and confirmed that it was him. Thank God they had enough sense to accept the soldier's message as valid. The U.S. military went in and rescued their peer on Easter Sunday, thank God! What a blessing!

You definitely know there will be some great movies made about this incident. What a great story! Those two soldiers are an American hero. I am so grateful to God that the Iranian Guard didn't capture him, because they would have slowly tortured him to death on world television.

I am not a Zionist and I am disgusted over the needless murder of 75,722 innocent Palestinians in recent years by Israel, but that doesn't excuse Iran's tyranny. Both Jews and Arabs in the Middle East hate each other with a passion. I remember years ago that some radical Muslims in Palestine had captured an Israeli soldier and tortured him to death. The evildoers had blood all over their hands, literally, and were smiling as they tortured the young man to death. That is something I have never forgot. You couldn't pay me to live in Palestine!

God is good! Amen and amen. God is so good to all of us, whether you realize and acknowledge it or not friend. Psalms 145:9, “The LORD is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.” Even if that Air Force soldier hadn't been rescued, God is still good. Thankfully he was rescued, and just in a nick of time. After being self-ejected from the jet, he was injured. Few people realize that the tremendous amount of ejection force can literally damage your spine. I am not sure what type of injuries he sustained, but I'm thinking he likely suffered some lacerations while landing hard.

I am so proud of that Air Force serviceman for honoring God during his hour of crisis. As far as the soldier knew, he was going to die on the Zagros mountain range. Of the thousands of things that he could have said over the radio, he chose to glorify God by uttering: “God is good.” The soldier didn't panic. He didn't lose it. He could merely have said: “Please help me” or “I'm okay guys” but he chose to say: “God is good.” What a beautiful thing! God is good dear reader.

U.S. military Secretary of War Pete Hegseth made a beautiful comparison between Good Friday/Easter and what happened to this Weapons Systems Officer. Their fighter jet went down on Good Friday and many people thought the soldier was dead, but then he resurrected alive on Easter Sunday from his situation. How fitting. Praise God!

The Safe Thing To Always Pray

noreply@blogger.com (David J. Stewart) — Tue, 07 Apr 2026 13:30:00 +0000

Philippians 4:6-7, “Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”

1st Thessalonians 5:17, “Pray without ceasing.”

I am making Puerto Rican pasteles today while my dog Pickles watches. I made the filling yesterday and am making the Masa today. Here is the recipe. I've been ordering ready-made pasteles (regular pork flavor) from New York from the Freakin' Rican restaurant, but they're so expensive, so I am trying to see if I can make them on my own. I love pasteles! I ordered the green bananas from Amazon. Unfortunately, stores don't sell green bananas in Pensacola. I thought you might like this too.

Onward! We are commanded by almighty God to pray continually. That simply means throughout the day as we think about things, we should take everything to the LORD in prayer. Supplications are long term prayer requests. When a sad thought enters into our mind, perhaps over something hurtful that somebody did to hurt us in the past, cast that care upon the Lord. 1st Peter 5:7, “Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.”

So often when I pray to the Lord, I become frustrated because God rarely seems to answer my prayers. In fact, at age 59, I cannot even point to even one case of God (no ifs, ands or buts) answering one of my prayers. When it seemed that God answered my prayers, it could just as well have been coincidence. There is nothing wrong dear reader with being honest. To me an answer to prayer needs to be a miracle, not something that could have happened anyway.

I have corresponded with my Christian believers over the 24 years of my website ministry and they have testified the same thing, that it seems like God never answers their prayers. To be very honest, if I looked at my prayer life alone, I would become an atheist. But when I behold the moon, the stars, our Milky Way galaxy and the unsearchable universe, I do not question the existence and omnipotence of our omniscient and omnisapient and faithful God.

When I hear braggadocios Christians (or rather said, professed Christians) boasting that God answers their prayers all the time, I am extremely skeptical and I simply don't believe them. Charismatics in particular really upset me, making bold bogus claims of healing (always in some remote place like deep in Mexico where no cameras were present). It sickens me to the point of wanting to barf when I hear wacky Charismatics boasting of their fake miracles, unbelievable answers to prayer and speaking in tongues nonsense.

Please don't misunderstand dear reader, I DO believe in a miracle-working all powerful caring God. I am simply saying that for whatever reason, I have not seen such miracles in my life, and I resent when religious ungodly hypocrites falsely accuse me of not being filled with the Holy Spirit, or not having enough faith.

In 2009, the scumbag pastor of Victory Chapel Church on Guam (a Charismatic hellhole of false religion) verbally attacked me in a local business parking lot. I had just come out of the House of Brutis' restaurant (no longer in business) and in front of two of his victim church members, the pastor told me that I wouldn't have needed neck surgery if I had been filled with the Holy Spirit. As the gentleman that I am, I kindly smiled and said nothing, but wanted to tell him in Jesus' name to go to Hell. Sadly, he's already headed there in his damnable heresy of Lordship Salvation.

As I mentioned, I often get discouraged when I pray. I am not saying that God has never answered my prayers. That would be presumptuous of me. I simply do not know. I am sure that the good LORD has answered many of my prayers, even before I asked for something, but He answered in ways that I did not anticipate. My mother use to wisely say that God works in mysterious ways. That is what the Bible teaches in Isaiah 55:7-9, “Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.” Don't try to figure out God, because you won't.

I thank God for His never-ending love, provisions and blessings. God has always provided for me and taken good care of this broken redeemed undeserving wretched sinner. I have absolutely no complaints to God. But when I go to pray and start to feel like it's just a big waste of my time, I always resort to a safe prayer. which is simply to ask God that His will be done. That way no matter what happens, I didn't set myself up for a disappointment. I still sometimes ask God for a specific thing, but I always add the words (as did Meshach, Shadrach and Abednego when about to be thrown into the fiery furnace), “But if not.” Daniel 3:18, “But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.”

By God's grace, I will continue to pray about everything for the remainder of my time on earth, because that is what God commands me to do to please Him as His redeemed child. If God answers my prayers, great; BUT IF NOT, blessed be the name of the Lord. Job 13:15, “Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him.” I refuse to sinfully place God on trial as the heathen world does, challenging His existence and power. Romans 1:20 warns that atheists are all WITHOUT EXCUSE, because even nature itself proves the existence of God.

I love Jesus and thank Him for dying on Calvary's cruel cross 2,000 years ago for my many sins. I am so unworthy of Christ's love and sacrifice. THANK YOU GOD!!!

By God's grace, I will continue to pray without ceasing for the spiritual needs of OTHERS, and for the Lord to work through my humble ministry labors to reach and build OTHERS for Christ. My only heart's desire all my life as a Christian has been for God to use me as a vessel to His purpose and glory. I am God's servant. Damn the torpedoes!

I suspect that a lot of my ministry blog readers feel like you're wasting your time when you pray, but I assure you on the authority of the Scripture that you are not dear friend. I don't believe that prayer makes a difference. You read right! I believe that GOD MAKES A DIFFERENCE!!! I don't believe in the power of prayer, I believe in the power of God.

Jesus acknowledged in Matthew 6:7-8 that even heathens pray, “But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.” Big deal if you pray. Do you have faith in God?

I used to feel that since God doesn't appear to answer my prayers, perhaps it was because there was sin in my life. Who doesn't have sin in their life? I worried that maybe it was because I listened to some secular music, or watched a Hollywood movie, or didn't do something that I should have done that was right to do. That kind of thinking will make you paranoid and nuts. Dear reader, religious scrupulosity will drive you crazy if you let it!!!

I encourage you to keep on keeping on in your prayers. Never stop asking God for what you need, and for the needs of your loved ones and the people you meet. Prayer is not preparation for the greater work; Prayer is the grater work! Never stop casting your cares, burdens and hurt feelings upon the LORD. NEVER!!! By casting your cares upon the Lord, you can walk away with “the peace of God, which passeth all understanding” (Philippians 4:7b).

But when you are not sure what to pray, or feel frustrated as I often do, just pray that God's will be done and then completely REST in the goodness and wisdom of God. The old adage is very true: When you cannot see the HAND of God at work, trust the great HEART of God.

In closing, when it comes to why God never seems to answer my prayers, I have two consuming thoughts to help you:

God In Luke 18:1 Jesus said, “And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint.” And then He tells a story about The Unjust Judge. A widow appeared in court before the judge, but the Bible says he was a heathen man who couldn't have cared less about avenging the widow. But she kept bothering the judge, coming back day after day, until he finally relented to give her what she wanted. This is called IMPORTUNITY, which the Bible teaches please God. Jesus used this story as an illustration of a Christian's prayer life. Literally, Jesus is teaching that GOD WILL IGNORE US WHEN WE PRAY, not because He doesn't care, but because a faith must be tested. Hebrews 11:6 says without faith no man can please God.
The Bible plainly teaches in 2nd Corinthians 5:7, “For we walk by faith, not by sight.” When we pray and become discouraged by not seeing visible results, we are walking BY SIGHT, not by faith. This is why I stopped looking for visible results several years ago. Now I just pray and TRUST the character of my faithful God and Savior, knowing that He is all wise, all loving and all powerful; and that is exactly what God desires for us as His saints, and why He seems to ignore us in the first place. God is still on His throne dear reader, and the good Lord knows what He is doing.

One of my favorite songs is Garth Brook's 1990 song, 'Thank God For Unanswered Prayers.' Just because God doesn't answer doesn't mean that He don't care. Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers. That is why I nowadays just pray for God's will to be done, because I know enough to be dangerous in my prayer life. Romans 8:26, “Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.” I sure don't know what to pray for. I need the good Lord's help.

I encourage everyone to keep praying, knowing that we walk by faith and not by sight. Trust the great heart of our good and faithful God.

Thank you for reading my ministry blog. To God alone by all the credit, praise and glory.
