Matthew 15:7-9, “Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying, This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me. But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.”
Ah yes, religion and more religion. Come one, come all, pick up a song book
at church and sing praises to God. It doesn't matter which Bible you use,
pick your favorite, they say. It doesn't matter if some preachers add
“turning from sins” to the Gospel, and others don't. “It is a matter of
semantics,” they cry, no big deal. This is the average neo-evangelical
church today.
Sadly, this includes Baptist churches, even once trustworthy independent Baptist churches. Most so-called “independent Baptist churches” these days have completely lost their independence, following the corrupt teachings of internet ministers and apostate ministries; such as, Pastors John MacArthur Rick Warren, and Evangelists Ray Comfort and Ravi Zacharias. I wouldn't give you a dime for any of those men, who all do more to help Satan than God.
The average minister today has sold out to the Alexandrian Bible butchers. Any pastor who has been warned about the corrupt modern Bible revisions, and chooses not to do anything about it, is either totally deceived by the Devil, or is a big coward!!! That pastor is NOT right with God, to say the least. It is tragic and unthinkable that any professed “of God” would search through umpteen Bible “versions” trying to find the truth. Such a man either woefully lacks spiritual discernment, or else is filled with arrogant wicked pride.
Dr. Jack Hyles was correct when he said that “THE BATTLE OF THE AGES” is over God's INCORRUPTIBLE SEED verses the Devil's CORRUPTIBLE SEED. Most pastors today use BOTH. Their lame excuse is that bilingual people cannot understand the King James Bible, so they need an easier-to-read version. Sadly, the truth is that such pastors and churches are handing people a PERversion of God's Word... CORRUPTIBLE SEED!!! Those pastors and churches have BLOOD ON THEIR HANDS!!!
Anyone who truly loves the Lord Jesus Christ gets upset when they realize that ALL of the modern Bible versions (which are all based upon the Alexandrian manuscripts), attack the Deity of Jesus Christ. Look how the new versions remove Jesus Christ from the plan of salvation. Every modern PERversion changes all mentions of people “worshipping” Jesus to a mere “knelt” of “bowed.” Why would any believer, especially pastors, tolerate such malicious attacks against our precious Lord? The only logical conclusion is that they simply don't care. They are going-along-to-get-along with apostate evangelicalism. They don't want to suffer reproach for Christ.
They are superficial religious adherents, but they don't truly love God in their heart. Matthew 15:7-9, “Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying, This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me. But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.” The Alexandrian Bible texts, from which the Jehovah's Witness' New World Translation was translated, is manmade. Every modern Bible revision today that is used in the churches, is based upon this same corrupt Greek text. Why don't pastors care? Why aren't they warning people? Why doesn't Bob Jones University care? Why doesn't Crown College care? Why doesn't Hyles-Anderson College care? Why doesn't Moody Bible Institute care? Why don't preachers get mad at the Devil's crowd for tampering with God's inspired Word?
