Matthew 7:20-23, “Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.”
On January 9th, 2020, the first person died in China from the much feared
Coronavirus (or COVID 19). The virus has quickly spread throughout the
world. We've even had 5 cases so far on Guam. In Italy, they've had tens of
thousands of people infected, and thousands have already died. Yet, the
mortality rate is surprising very low at 0.4 to 3.4 %, compared to
Ebola which has a mortality rate of about 50%. As Christians we ought
not fear anything except God. Matthew 10:28, “And fear not them which
kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him
which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.”
Only Christians Of Little
Faith Fear Coronavirus |
MP3 (Matthew 8:26, “Why are ye fearful?”).
Yet, there is something far more deadly than the Coronavirus or Ebola, and that is the Satanic doctrines of John Calvin (1509-1564). Mr. Calvin's heretical teachings are often referred to as “Calvinism.” Although everybody has a right to their opinion, you'll be surprised to learn that this is exactly what the word “heresy” means, “an opinion”! There is man's opinion, and then there is THE TRUTH of God's Word. John 17:17, “Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.” If I were asked to sum up the Bible in as few words as possible, it would be just one word—“TRUTH”!
Sadly, the mortality rate spiritually is very high with Calvinism. It spreads just like a virus, infecting people without them even knowing it. Before long, entire churches and Bible colleges become infected, and then they die spiritually. Case in point is Moody Bible Institute in Chicago. On their website they admit to being “Generally Calvinistic.” Since Calvinism teaches that you cannot be saved unless God first chooses you (i.e., Unconditional Election), and then God forces Himself upon you with (i.e., Irresistible Grace), the Calvinist sees no need to go soulwinning. I mean, they think you're either chosen or not, so why bother trying to lead anyone to Christ. That is one reason why I hate Calvinism, because it is an enemy of soulwinning.
I am warning everyone to stay away from Moody Bible Institute, who are admittedly Calvinists, and are strong supporters of other Calvinists like Dr. John MacArthur. Moody publishes Mr. MacArthur heretical books! Moody radio simply cannot be trusted! Also, please stay away from Pacific Garden Mission's 'UNSHACKLED' series, which are absolutely saturated with JUNK THEOLOGY! Don't get me wrong, their stories are awesome, and I enjoy listening to them, but if a man is wrong on the Gospel, he is WRONG ON EVERYTHING ELSE! It is like getting dressed, if you get the first button wrong, then all the buttons will be wrong! I was saddened today as I listened to Pacific Garden Mission's popular radio program called: 'UNSHACKLED' (program #3589 - aired in 2020 - the Story of Debbie Brooks). In the episode, Debbie meets with a religious friend named Sharon, and they share this brief dialogue:
SHARON: Trusting Jesus is the only thing that can make a difference in my messed-up life.
DEBBIE: I keep hearing that in church, but I don't get it—how something that EASY can be a life-changer.
SHARON: Oh Debbie, it's not easy—believing in Jesus means repenting and asking forgiveness for all the old ways, and then GIVING THEM UP FOR GOOD. When you find the COURAGE TO DO THAT, He'll help you CHANGE YOUR LIFE. [emphasis added]
DEBBIE: Huh, well, I'll have to think about it.
OH MY GOD!!! I cannot believe what I just heard, and that PGM sanctions this garbage theology! Sharon is telling Debbie that it is NOT EASY TO BE SAVED, because to be saved she says you MUST repent to give up all the old ways, GIVING THEM UP FOR GOOD! How is any of this a free gift from God? Dear reader, Pacific Garden Mission (PGM) are pulling on the same rope as the Devil. Literally, you can listen to five different 'UNSHACKLED' programs and get FIVE DIFFERENT PLANS OF SALVATION!!! Everything that PGM put out to radio bears their ministry's name, which makes them 100% responsible for every bit of content!!! Romans 3:4, “God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.”
Calvinism has infected Pacific Garden Mission.
Calvinism has infected Moody Church. Calvinism has infected John MacArthur's
'Grace To You' ministry and Grace Community Church in California. Calvinism
is a deadly virus, not The Gospel of free grace! Every Bible-believing
church ought to be an oasis of free grace! Instead, churches like Harvest
Baptist Church on Guam are a mirage, destitute of any life-giving resources,
a spiritually barren hole in the desert! Harvest Baptist Church shamefully
promotes Dr. John MacArthur, Unshackled, Moody Radio, and other Calvinists,
bidding them Godspeed! I think I'm even guilty of promoting some of
'UNSHACKLED,' so I am to blame somewhat too!
Believers Are Engaged in a Spiritual War Today
Folks,
we are engaged in spiritual warfare today over 'What is the Gospel?'
and the 'Inspiration of God's Word'!!! From all that I can tell, we
are losing the battle on both fronts! Literally, HUNDREDS of different
English Bible revisions have flooded into the churches today! Likewise, most
Baptist churches nowadays are teaching some variation of Calvinism, having
been infected with the virus! You don't have to turn away from sinful ways
to be saved, you get saved to be delivered from your sinful ways! No one
ever gets saved by turning away from their sins! In fact, to do so is
IMPOSSIBLE!
Sadly, Harvest Baptist Church on Guam has been infected with the Calvinism virus, spiritually killing half its members. I believe there are some saved people at Harvest, since the King James Bible is one of the Bibles they use; but unfortunately, as with the Coronavirus, a certain number of church members and staff have succumbed to the counterfeit Bible revisions, and the virus of Calvinism (aka, 'Lordship Salvation'). The test to see if someone has been infected with Calvinism is very simple—just ask them what a person must do to get to Heaven! I witnessed to one man on Harvest's staff, who teaches in their school. I asked him if realizing that one is a needy sinner, and believing The Gospel, is enough to be saved. He foolishly replied: “No, I think a little more is required!” Upon further examination of the patient, I realized that he was infected with the Calvinism virus, and thinks you must forsake a sinful lifestyle to be saved. THEREFORE, HE IS NOT SAVED!!! I know that for a fact, because the Bible says in Titus 3:5, “Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;” The 'washing of regeneration' and 'renewing of the Holy Ghost' are simply referring to the new birth, that is, being born-again. Have you been born anew my friend?
We've got a lot of people today living the Christian life, but they have never been born-again. You can identify who they are by their corrupt fruit. Jesus said this in Matthew 7:15-16, “Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?” What “fruit” did Jesus mean? He meant their doctrine...
1st John 4:1-3, “Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.”
Also, if we examine 2nd Corinthians 11:3-4 and Galatians 1:6-9, the apostle Paul warns us about three evils: ANOTHER GOSPEL, ANOTHER SPIRIT and ANOTHER JESUS! We see all three of these counterfeits in the so-called “churches” today! Mormons and Jehovah's Witnesses certainly preach ANOTHER JESUS! The Emerging Church Movement, which includes 'Hillsong' and 'The Elevation Church' (Pastor Steven Furtick) preach ANOTHER SPIRIT, not the Holy Spirit. And sadly, Harvest Baptist Church on Guam, along with John MacArthur, Moody Church, and 'UNSHACKLED,' all preach ANOTHER GOSPEL. I am going to go to seed over the Gospel and the King James Bible before I go to Heaven! I am tired of being a nice guy, who is treated like a bad guy, for telling THE TRUTH. I mean, when you simply want to sit in a local independent Baptist church, to be part of a church family; but they don't want you, because their pastors are at odds with you over the inspired Word of God, we've got big problems in our churches today!
I
fully agree with Pastor Jack Hyles, who said:
Folks, I'm going to go to seed [to become worn] before I die on defending this Book—I'm going to go to seed on it! I'm a little tired—by the way, every preacher in America, before he met a theologian, believed exactly what I'm preaching tonight! Theologians messed us all up—they messed me up for a while, I'll be honest with you—messed us all up! When I went off to college, I thought I had the words of God in this Book right here. When I was in college for awhile I found out I didn't. Not only that, I found out nobody did! Not only that, I found out you couldn't have them! Not only that, I found out there was no such thing as any book in all the world that had the words of God in 'em!
But my Bible said that we're supposed to keep His “WORDS”; not His truths, not just His doctrine, but His “WORDS”! ...
Mark 8:38,“Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.”
Folks, here's what's happening in America. The old-time preachers that built this country believed that this Book right here had the words of God in it! Your grandpa and grandma, that built this country, shed their tears on this Book, thinking they had the very words of God in their hands. And fundamentalists ALL believed what I'm preaching tonight, until we got our own Bible colleges, and seminaries, and sent our professors off to train at the feet of Karl Barth, and Reinhold Neuber, Emil Brunner, and others, who said that the Bible does not have the “words” of God, it is the Word of God, and that all the Bible is not inspired word-for-word. So we did not want to be considered “unintellectual” by the intellectual community; we're not willing to be called “nuts” and “fools”—just chalk me up as a nut! Chalk me up as a fool! Yea! Chalk me up as an uneducated illiterate if you want to, but I guarantee Ya—I'd rather study my A-B-C's in Heaven, then Greek and Hebrew in Hell!
Whosoever shall be ashamed of “ME AND MY WORDS”; it didn't say His “WORD,” it says His “WORDS”! —Pastor Jack Hyles, a beautiful quote from the sermon, “There Are Too Many Smiths In The Land.”
I say Amen and amen! They are GOD'S WORDS!!! Men should leave them alone!
Kindly,
the Harvest Baptist Church on Guam have at least 24 different Bible versions
in the pews on any given Sunday! (That is an exact number of translations
given to me by one of their former associate pastors) Officially, they use
TWO Bibles at Harvest: the King James Bible (KJB), and the
