Calvinism Destroying Christianity Justifying US Others > *PROOF*: JOHN CALVIN had Servetus MURDERED, REJECTING Jesus' Teaching of ENEMY LOVE — Calvinism is a theological system designed by someone who had no moral or theological objections to killing those who disagreed with him

No wonder that so many Calvinists are ‘Christian’ Zionists, promoting murder in Jesus’ name.
John Calvin was a reverse-Christian who lived and taught a perverted version of Christianity.

The Execution of Michael Servetus & My Primary Deal-Breaker with Calvinism

by Benjamin L. Corey

Burning Wizards 16th

…many modern Calvinists have never actually read what John Calvin taught. Calvinist writer and pastor Tim Callies completely agrees:

Many, and no doubt most Calvinists have never read a word of John Calvin. Instead they reluctantly call themselves Calvinists because they feel John Calvin was gifted by God to understand and interpret the Scriptures and that he restored to the church doctrine that had been lost for hundreds of years.”

Perhaps one of the chief issues in modern Calvinism is that many don’t understand what their founder taught, or how he lived. …

When reading Calvin there’s no shortage of problematic stuff one will find, as Zack Hunt articulately wrote about recently. From teaching that God not only picks who will go to heaven but also picks who will go to hell (before they’re even born!) and that God is the agent who ordains every act of evil in the world….

My primary point of departure from Calvinism is looking at how Calvin lived, and being able to see that he didn’t grasp (or was just completely unwilling to obey) one of the most basic things Jesus taught: enemy love. And this brings us to the execution of Michael Servetus– my primary “do not pass go” moment with Calvin.

Michael Servetus (1511-1553) was a theological enemy of Calvin and the two had mutual disdain for the other (Servetus thought Calvin was obnoxious and in return, Calvin felt Servetus was pompous). Servetus rejected orthodox Christianity (issues such as the trinity), holding what would correctly be called heretical views. In those days heretics were executed, and at one point Servetus was arrested- but released for lack of evidence. Soon after, he was re-arrested by the Catholic church and convicted of a capital offense– thanks to John Calvin, who sent some of Servetus heretical writings to the authorities. However, Servetus escaped from prison and was free to write again.

Calvin had previously vowed that if it were at all possible, he’d have Servetus killed, but his escape from prison thwarted those hopes. It wouldn’t be long however before Calvin could fulfill the vow he made against Servetus in 1546:

“Servetus wrote to me a short time ago, and sent a huge volume of his dreamings and pompous triflings with his letter. I was to find among them wonderful things, and such as I had never before seen; and if I wished, he would himself come. But I am by no means inclined to be responsible for him; and if he come, I will never allow him, supposing my influence worth anything, to depart alive.” [1]

As much as I dislike Calvin, Servetus was either an idiot or had a death wish, because instead of fleeing to safety he showed up at church one night in Geneva to hear Calvin preach (he’s certainly guilty of antagonizing Calvin). Calvin of course, didn’t miss the opportunity and had his friend Nicholas de la Fontaine arrest Servetus on 40 capital charges of heresy. During the trial, Calvin wrote that he hoped the verdict would come back as death[2], and it did. Servetus was ultimately burned at the stake– atop a pyre of his own books and green wood to draw out his death– which reportedly took 30 minutes.

And thus, John Calvin was responsible for having his enemy killed.

Now, both sides tend to overplay their hand on the death of Servetus. Those who stand against Calvin will often call it murder, and those strongly in the Calvin camp will try to explain it away as just the “culture of the time.” (Aren’t we supposed to stand against evil in culture?) Certainly this was not murder in the sense that Calvin walked up and personally killed Servetus– but he did collaborate with the local government to have him killed on two occasions. Also, it is true that Calvin tried to get Servetus to repent of his theology and when that didn’t work, he sought to have him beheaded instead of burned alive. However, I find the Calvinist tendency to play the “he tried to have him beheaded as an act of mercy” card a bit disingenuous, as if beheading an enemy is somehow morally superior to burning one.

In addition, Calvin wasn’t simply an innocent bystander in a violent culture– he was actually one of the folks promoting it. Calvin once wrote that those who objected to killing heretics were just as guilty as the heretics themselves:

“Whoever shall maintain that wrong is done to heretics and blasphemers in punishing them makes himself an accomplice in their crime and guilty as they are…” [3]

So, not only does he argue killing theological enemies to be good, but Calvin argued that one was not even morally free to oppose it. Furthermore, Calvin argued that the blood of no one– not even a person’s own family should be spared:

“… we spare not kin, nor blood of any, and forget all humanity when the matter is to combat for His glory.” [4]

Got that? We must not spare our own families of bloodshed– in fact, we must “forget all humanity” when doing combat for God’s glory.

(And don’t even get me going on the fact that Calvin was somewhat famous for his abusive speech toward others— aka, the sin of reviling as condemned by Paul.)

Calvinism is, by definition, the teachings of John Calvin– a man whose actions show me either (a) he didn’t understand Jesus or (b) he didn’t want to obey Jesus. Why in the world would I want to build the totality of my Christian theology on a foundation erected by such a person?  If Calvin didn’t understand something so basic as torturing and killing people is something a Jesus follower probably shouldn’t do, I have zero confidence that he ever understood the more complex theological issues.

And this is my primary deal breaker: before any discussion on sovereignty, evil, or predestination, I am unable to move past the fact that Calvinism is a theological system designed by someone who had no moral or theological objections to brutally killing those who disagreed with him.

1873 Charles Finney: THE PULPIT IS RESPONSIBLE for the Decay of Conscience — "If the public press lacks moral discrimination… If the church is degenerate and worldly… If the world loses its interest in religion… If Satan rules in our halls of legislation… If our politics become so corrupt that the very foundations of our government are ready to fall away, the pulpit is responsible for it"

THE DECAY OF CONSCIENCE

BY PRESIDENT CHARLES G. FINNEY.

THE INDEPENDENT.

NEW YORK, DECEMBER 4, 1873

Brethren, our preaching will bear its legitimate fruits.

If immorality prevails in the land, the fault is ours in a great degree. If there is a decay of conscience, the pulpit is responsible for it. If the public press lacks moral discrimination, the pulpit is responsible for it. If the church is degenerate and worldly, the pulpit is responsible for it. If the world loses its interest in religion, the pulpit is responsible for it. If Satan rules in our halls of legislation, the pulpit is responsible for it. If our politics become so corrupt that the very foundations of our government are ready to fall away, the pulpit is responsible for it.

Let us not ignore this fact, my dear brethren; but let us lay it to heart, and be thoroughly awake to our responsibility in respect to the morals of this nation.

Pastors are destroying relationships and the church by teaching what the world says about men and women — instead of boldly teaching the pure word of God

I wrote this on my Facebook timeline:

And a HUGE factor today is the rebellious idea that husbands are not designed by God to lead their wives. Women are being influenced by the media to take control everything, including churches, which the Bible says men are to lead. Men, now, are to be mocked and diminished: “God didn’t design men to be different with different graces. Women can do everything men can do, and even better. God’s order is to be rejected and replaced.”

This rebellious bucking is destroying many relationships and society — as many pastors give in to culture, instead of boldly, without shame, teaching the pure word of God.

We need to stand up for what’s right, and not censor ourselves to be politically correct.

Hardly anyone is addressing the root of what is really going on, which is rebellion to how God made us and how we should function together as one, having different roles by design.

Most relationships don’t die from natural causes.

They’re killed by selfishness, neglect, lack of consideration, lies & secrets!

Let's Be Like Paul, so we can be Together as 'ONE' — Paul worked out his own salvation through fear and trembling, running his race to win — and so can we. 'ONE' Can Happen!!!

Sadly, virtually all churches today have disqualified leaders who are not blameless, and who teach diabolical false doctrines that are putting the church into bondage.
But we can be like Paul, overcoming by God’s grace, running our race to win!!!
I put together this list:
– –
Paul worked out his own salvation by God’s grace/enablement/empowerment, as he taught others to do:

 …work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. For it is God who works in you both to will and to work, for his good pleasure. – Php. 2:12-13

I beat my body and bring it into submission, lest by any means, after I have preached to others, I myself should be rejected. – 1 Cor. 9:27

Those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its passions and lusts. – Gal. 5:24

Paul didn’t just say it, but actually made Jesus Lord of his life, ‘pressing on’ to take hold of ‘that’:

I count all things to be loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus, my Lord, for whom I suffered the loss of all things, and count them nothing but refuse, that I may gain Christ and be found in him…. that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed to his death; if by any means I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.

Not that I have already obtained, or am already made perfect; but I press on, if it is so that I may take hold of that for which also I was taken hold of by Christ Jesus. Brothers, I don’t regard myself as yet having taken hold, but one thing I do. Forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to the things which are before, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, think this way. If in anything you think otherwise, God will also reveal that to you. Nevertheless, to the extent that we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule. Let us be of the same mind. – Php. 3:8-16

As Paul predicted, most are on the highway to hell. We, however, can overcome like Paul:

For the time will come when they will not listen to the sound doctrine, but, having itching ears, will heap up for themselves teachers after their own lusts; and will turn away their ears from the truth, and turn aside to fables. …

I have fought the good fight. I have finished the course. I have kept the faith. – 2 Tim. 4:3-4, 7

Paul made sure he was ALWAYS right with God and men:

Herein I also practice *ALWAYS* having a CONSCIENCE VOID OF OFFENSE toward God and men. (Acts 24:16).

The writer to Hebrews was in complete sync with Paul:

Therefore let us also, seeing we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising its shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

For consider him who has endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, that you don’t grow weary, fainting in your souls. …

Therefore, lift up the hands that hang down and the feeble knees, and make straight paths for your feet, so that which is lame may not be dislocated, but rather be healed.

Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man will see the Lord, looking carefully lest there be any man who falls short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and many be defiled by it; lest there be any sexually immoral person, or profane person, like Esau, who sold his birthright for one meal. For you know that even when he afterward desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no place for a change of mind though he sought it diligently with tears. – Heb. 12:1-3, 12-17

When Paul saw Jesus face to Face, he had no condemnation. Why, because he made sure he walked according to the Spirit. He put to death the deeds of the body so he could live:

There is therefore now *no condemnation* to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don’t walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. …

the mind of the Spirit is life and peace….

…if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. 14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are children of God.

we are children of God; and if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if indeed we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified with him. – Romans 8:1, 6, 13-14, 16-17

Let’s be like Paul, overcoming by the Holy Spirit’s grace/enablement, running our races to win!:

…let us walk by the same rule. Let us be of the same mind. – Php. 3:8-16

Jesus desires not only that we abide in Him so we can live eternally with Him, but that we’d be ‘ONE’ with Him and each other that His joy would remain in us and that OUR JOY WOULD BE FULL!:

1 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the farmer. 2 Every branch in me that doesn’t bear fruit, he takes away. Every branch that bears fruit, he prunes, that it may bear more fruit. 3 You are already pruned clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. 4 Remain in me, and I in you. As the branch can’t bear fruit by itself, unless it remains in the vine, so neither can you, unless you remain in me. 5 I am the vine. You are the branches. He who remains in me, and I in him, the same bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. 6 If a man doesn’t remain in me, he is thrown out as a branch, and is withered; and they gather them, throw them into the fire, and they are burned. If you remain in me, and my words remain in you, you will ask whatever you desire, and it will be done for you. 8 “In this is my Father glorified, that you bear much fruit; and so you will be my disciples. 9 Even as the Father has loved me, I also have loved you. Remain in my love. 10 If you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and remain in his love. 11 I have spoken these things to you, that my joy may remain in you, and THAT YOUR JOY MAY BE MADE FULL.

12 “This is my commandment, that you love one another, even as I have loved you. 13 Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends. 14 You are my friends, if you do whatever I command you.

Jesus promised to give us His glory as we become ‘ONE’ with each other in Him that the WORLD WILL KNOW!:

Not for these only do I pray, but for those also who believe in me through their word, that they may all be one; even as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be one in us; that the world may believe that you sent me.

The glory which you have given me, I have given to them; that they may be one, even as we are one; I in them, and you in me, that they may be perfected into one; that the world may know that you sent me, and loved them, even as you loved me. Father, I desire that they also whom you have given me be with me where I am, that they may see my glory, which you have given me, for you loved me before the foundation of the world. that the love with which you loved me may be in them, and I in them.” – John 17:20-26

‘ONE’ is what we should be focusing on — overcoming, like Paul, strong together:

‘Let Us Be ONE’ Prophecy Continues 10/8/08: “It’s TOO LATE to REVERSE what’s been done for MY MEN have been REJECTED … Now is the Time to OVERCOME and GET RIGHT With ALL … FREEeeeeeeeeeeeee———DOM at last … Your HEART will SWELL with LOVE and it will be EASY to REMAIN In Me when others are On The BOAT With You”

Again, the pastor when facing his congregation on Sunday morning, dare not think of the effect his sermon may have on his job, his salary or his future relation to the church. Let him but worry about tomorrow and he becomes a hireling and no true shepherd of the sheep. No man is a good preacher who is not willing to lay his future on the line every time he expounds the Word. He must let his job and his reputation ride on each and every sermon or he has no right to think that he stands in the prophetic tradition. The Size of the Soul, 146-147.

Texe Marrs: THE SCANDAL OF CHRISTIAN GHOSTWRITING — Among the big names pulling this stunt: Hal Lindsey, Chuck Colson, Jim Bakker, Billy Graham, Pat Robertson, Oral Roberts, Benny Hinn, John Ankerberg, Hank Hanegraaff, David Jeremiah and Jerry Falwell

From: scionofzion.com

THE SCANDAL OF CHRISTIAN GHOSTWRITING

by Texe Marrs

“…Readers pay exorbitant prices for the books of Christian superstars, never knowing that the volumes are actually written by no-name “ghosts.” Among the big names pulling this stunt: Hal Lindsey, Chuck Colson, Jim Bakker, Billy Graham, Oral Roberts, Benny Hinn, John Ankerberg, Hank Hanegraaff, David Jeremiah and Jerry Falwell.”

Are some of the most cherished books in your personal Christian library written by ghostwriters, some of whom may be homosexuals, atheists, and New Agers? Before you answer “no”, please read this article very carefully. A tragic and disreputable hoax is being perpetrated on unsuspecting Christians. …

The Reverend Mel White is a homosexual activist who lives with his male lover, Gary Nixon, in Dallas, Texas. “I am gay, I am proud, and God loves me without reservation,” White recently told David Calker, a Los Angeles Times reporter. White, who “pastors” a militantly gay church, is also a writer of many Christian books. But though he’s the author, his name doesn’t appear on the front covers. Instead, a Christian celebrity’s name appears on each of Mel White’s books. White is what the book industry fondly calls a “ghostwriter.”

Ghostwriting Rampant in “Christian” Publishing
The scandalous practice of an unnamed and concealed person ghostwriting a book for a celebrity is rampant in Christian publishing. Virtually all the larger book publishing firms do it. The question is, is this practice immoral, dishonest, and deceitful?

After all, the buyer of these books thinks he or she is getting inspired information direct from the hearts and pens of men like Billy Graham and Pat Robertson, each of whom has used ghostwriters. The reader pays good money for a beautifully packaged book with the hero celebrity’s picture and name on the jacket. Never would the buyer suspect that the book is actually written by a homosexual, an atheist, or a New Ager. Thinking that he or she is taking in digestible spiritual food, the book buyer has no idea the ghostwritten book may contain poisonous and insidious views hostile to Christianity imbedded in its text.

Big Name Personalities Use Ghostwriters
Homosexual activist Mel White has been an influential, behind-the-scenes ghostwriter for many big name personalities. He’s written speeches for Lt. Col. Oliver North. White has also authored at least two of evangelist Jerry Falwell’s books, including, unbelievable as it may seem, Falwell’s autobiography, Strength for the Journey. Falwell could well afford White’s fee to ghostwrite his books. The Moral Majority preacher was given a one million dollar advance by the publisher! The Reverend Mr. White has also been the secret force behind some of Billy Graham’s best known books, including Graham’s prophetic bestseller, The Approaching Hoofbeats. Indeed, White once even closeted himself in a luxurious condo for weeks with the famed evangelist down in Acapulco, Mexico, writing a book.

However, you’ll search in vain to find author Mel White’s name on either the cover or the title page of the books he wrote for Billy Graham. Nor is Mel White’s name openly connected with Jerry Falwell’s books. “It was important,” White now reveals, “that Jerry Falwell not be scandalized because his biographer was a queer.”

Ghostwriter White also wrote Pat Robertson’s book, America’s Dates With Destiny but the gay reverend is not the only “ghost” whom the veteran host of TV’s The 700 Club has used for his chart topping books. Reportedly, Robertson’s recent #l Christian bestseller, The New World Order, was also ghostwritten by a CBN staffer.

In The New World Order, “Pat Robertson” correctly warns readers that Freemasonry is an evil, Luciferian conspiracy. Yet, incredibly, Robertson’s Christian Coalition subsequently held a “Road to Victory ’93” conference in Washington, D.C., at which high-level Freemasons gave the keynote addresses! Pat Robertson’s guest speakers at the conference included Senator Bob Dole, 33rd Scottish Rite Mason, and Senator Jesse Helms, yet another 33rd Mason.

Pat Robertson’s book, The New World Order, also fingered the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) as a Satan led, conspiratorial project. But at his “Road to Victory ’93” gala, Robertson’s keynote speaker was none other than Congressman Newt Gingrich. One worlder Gingrich just happens to be a loyal member of the same group which Pat’s book exposes as a devilish front the CFR! The title of Gingrich’s speech for the Christian Coalition conference was “Renewing American Civilization.”

We are thus faced with these two alternatives: (l) either Pat Robertson did not even bother to read the best-selling book, The New World Order, that sports his celebrity name as author on its glossy cover; or (2) he allowed his name to be placed on a book, the contents of which he does not even believe in. …

Another prime example is prophecy teacher Hal Lindsey. Very few people know that Lindsey’s mammoth bestseller, “The Late, Great Planet Earth,” was actually written by a woman, Carla Carlson. To his credit, Lindsey has publicly admitted this. The question remains, however: Who is Carla Carlson? Why was she involved in writing Lindsey’s book? Why is her name not highlighted on the cover, in bold letters equally as large as those of Hal Lindsey? And finally: Are all of Hal Lindsey’s books similarly written by unknown ghostwriters?

It is shameful that such vital and basic information is withheld from the book buyer. Shouldn’t truth-in-packaging rules apply to publishing the way they do to other consumer product industries? Anything less would be a scam on my readers.

How to Make a Bundle from Ghostwritten Books
Now please understand: I do realize that in a few cases, it is perfectly acceptable for a talented professional writer to work with an expert or authority on a technical subject. …

This is rarely the case with celebrity Christian authors. Publishers are continually searching for “hot,” new topics for books that can make them a lot of money. Usually, they, not the celebrity, choose a title for the book and only then contact and recruit the chosen celebrity. Publishers have been known to hire entire teams of writers and researchers to produce books.

Often, the greedy celebrity author merely gives the finished product a cursory look-over and adds his verbal blessing to the project. The celebrity is pleased because he knows he will make a bundle, with only minimal effort on his part. His name goes on the cover, and millions of Christian buyers are deceived into believing the celebrity, inspired by God, personally wrote every word in the book.

The Profit Motive is Paramount
It thus becomes crystal clear why publishers and celebrity authors conspire to produce ghostwritten books. The reason is simple: money, money, money! A best-selling, hardcover book with the glittery name of a Graham, Robertson, Colson, or Lindsey on the cover can bring in five to ten million dollars or more in income.

The celebrity “author” also profits – he can rake in as much as two million dollars per book. No wonder the rush is on by publishers to constantly create new, mostly fluff titles and to line up their ghostwriters with name celebrities known to be guaranteed money-makers in the Christian marketplace.

Truth Telling is in Order
So what’s to be done about the lucrative, yet unethical and dishonest, practice of the ghostwriting of Christian books? I believe it is time for some truth telling. Thomas Nelson, Word, and all the other wealthy conglomerates who disguise themselves as “Christian” publishers should step up to the plate and give us a list of which books have been written by “ghosts” and which were really penned by the authors listed on their covers. That’s the least they should do to come clean. Better yet, these greedy publishing houses and their celebrity stable mates should quit trying to fatten their coffers and make bucks off gullible Christian readers. They should cease their publishing of ghostwritten books entirely.

Talmudic Judaism is viciously anti-Christian — Jesus in the Talmud.

God only keeps covenants with those who obey Him — conditional

“..because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord” (Heb. 8:9)

7:30 “This is still going on today. Jewish power kept Graham and Nixon from speaking to Gentiles publicly what they said privately.”

Paul, speaking to Christians in 1 Thess. 2:14-16:

“You suffered from your own people the same things those churches suffered from the Jews who killed the Lord Jesus and the prophets and also drove us out. They displease God and are hostile to everyone in their effort to keep us from speaking to the Gentiles so that they may be saved. In this way they always heap up their sins to the limit. The wrath of God has come upon them at last.”

7:45 “Every single priest in this church has been spat on. It happens day and night.”

Many Christians are now told that Christians must support Israel and even support Jewish power in America because “God has covenant with the Jews.”

In fact, this goes against the fundamental teachings of the New Testament!

In the first place, the Covenant talked about in the Old Testament was always “Conditional.” That is, God said that he would honor it to the 1000th generation, BUT, that they did not keep the commandments of God, or rejected him, that God would requite them and “destroy” them.

The traditional and correct Christian view is that by hating and rejecting Jesus, the Son of God, they have rejected God and broke the Covenant. The New Testament says that very clearly!

The New Testament gives us the very words of God himself in the clearest of language.

Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers, in the day when I took them by the hand out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord. (Hebrews 8:67, 910)

Christianity from its founding has always held that Jews hated Christ, caused his crucifixion, rejected God’s son and have rejected Jesus every since. Therefore, they broke God’s Covenant. God made a NEW Covenant for those who accept Jesus Christ.

Jewish extremist power has been this biggest enemy of Jesus Christ and Christians for the last 2,000 years. They lead the destruction of our Christian values with Hollywood, and lead every kind of degeneracy from Porn to Abortion, to destruction of every Christian value. Jewish extremists led the legal fight to ban prayers in school, even ban Christmas carols.

It is not every Jew, of course, but the Jewish power structure has led the fight for abortion, for homosexual degeneracy and marriage and for the de-Christianization of America.,

It is a tragedy that some Christians have been deluded into thinking that they are being good Christians by supporting these anti-Christian Jewish enemies of Christ himself.

When you see this film, you will understand why Billy Graham said what he said about them, and you will understand why he to, in his own words, crawl to them. That’s how much power they really have in America. He can’t say publicly what he says privately. He is afraid they will destroy his ministry.

It breaks my heart to see Christians deluded into supporting the worst enemies of Jesus Christ and really themselves.

Christ may have said turn the other cheek, but he never said to support evil deeds.

This video is dedicated to my Christian friends, who deserve to hear the traditional Christian view and not the brand new view of Judaism and Jewish extremists promoted by the same establishment which is in Graham’s words, are causing America to “go down the drain.”

We must inform our fellow Christians and wake up our brethren before it is too late.

Posted by Chuck Baldwin on Facebook, 2/22/17:

President Trump has said he wants to see the infamous Johnson Amendment expunged. Of course, this would take an act of Congress. But for the record, I absolutely agree with Donald Trump on this one.

The Johnson Amendment (introduced by then Senator Lyndon B. Johnson in 1954) is the amendment to the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) which requires churches that organize under article 501c3 fall under “non-profit organization” status and, therefore, are restricted by law as to political speech and activity. Failure to comply theoretically threatens their tax-exempt status.

There are MANY components to this issue, which I will have the opportunity to address should Congress begin acting on Mr. Trump’s wishes. Right now, I will merely address one element–the BIGGEST element.

Here is the plain truth: the 501c3 tax code is a tree that most pastors and churches are hiding behind. They use the tax code as justification for not speaking out on the salient issues of the day–as if the government has ANY right to tell or even suggest what they may and may not preach. I guess these men never read the verse of Scripture where the apostle told the powers that be, “We must obey God rather than man.” I guess the never read the stories of Daniel and the three Hebrew children.

Yes, I would very much like to see Trump succeed in leading Congress to repealing the Johnson Amendment, but not for the reason most might think.

I already know what will happen should Congress repeal the Johnson Amendment: the vast majority of pastors and churches that are hiding behind the IRC 501c3 will simply find another tree to hide behind. The problem is not the tree; the problem is the cowardice of the man who hides behind it.

Do away with the Johnson Amendment and no one will even notice. Pastors will go on cowering in timidity, because the truth is: more than the fear of offending the IRS, pastors fear offending a carnal, temperamental, finicky, feeling-on-their-shoulders bunch of babies that comprise a large percentage of almost every church congregation. Pastors are much more fearful of tithes and offerings walking out the back door than they are of the IRS walking in the front door.

I want to see the Johnson Amendment expunged so that these timid and compromising pastors can be exposed for the cowards that they are. Without the Johnson Amendment, they will be forced to find another reason why they refuse to be the spiritual watchmen they are supposed to be, because there is absolutely no doubt that should the Johnson Amendment go away, they will quickly find another tree to hide behind.

Again, the problem is not the tree; the problem is the cowardice of the man who hides behind it.

I wrote this comment under the video:

Really good, except, please be careful about praying (or James-3 cursing) that the existing “Christian” bookstores would close. It may be better to pray that real Christians buy them, and then sell SOUND DOCTRINE: real Christian books and real Bibles and gifts (especially plaques that have JESUS’ GREATEST TWO COMMANDMENTS — what we’re supposed to be focused on obeying in the NEW COVENANT — which these “Christian” stores rarely sell. They focus on old covenant gifts instead, and on worshiping modern day, Talmudic Israel).

@11:50, transcribed by me:

“This stuff [false doctrine books] will bring you to hell. And the people who are selling this stuff (that did sell this stuff) are going to have to give an account for the amount of souls that they sold this stuff too, and made available to these people.

(3 min video) I Deceived Many People — I was a paid PASTOR. I made them believe that I was truly doing God a big favor and that I was so righteous and holy, but I was lying to myself and I was deceiving people • The Lord Jesus woke me up a little over a year ago, and He told me that I was NOT bearing good fruit • Are you content with bearing fake, phony fruit for the Kingdom of Heaven? You may fool a bunch of people, but you certainly will NEVER fool the KING

I was once someone who deceived many people. Who made them believe that I was bearing good fruit for the kingdom of God because I was a paid pastor and I was preaching for money. I made people believe that I was doing God a BIG favor by speaking to junior high students and preaching to adults and doing these day camps. I made them believe that I was truly doing God a big favor and that I was so righteous and holy, but I was lying to myself and I was deceiving people. I was pushing forward the agenda of Satan and his kingdom.

The Lord Jesus woke me up a little over a year ago, and He told me that I was NOT bearing good fruit for His Kingdom. He said to me; “Can you name Me ONE person who has truly come to ME because of your ministry?” And I could not name Him ONE name. The Lord Jesus then called me to preach the gospel FREE of charge, and I had to resign from my job if I was going to truly follow Jesus.

And I chose to resign from my job, even though I didn’t know what I was going to do next. But the Lord Jesus guided me by the POWER of His HOLY SPIRIT, and He continues to guide me into HIS Truth. I no longer speak what is a lie. I no longer speak for money, but I only speak what the Lord Jesus speaks to me.

If you want to be led by the same Holy Spirit, then you need to seek of Jesus. You need to go to HIM in prayer and seek HIM with all your heart all your soul all your might. Are you willing to do that? Or are you just content with bearing fake, phony fruit for the Kingdom of Heaven?

You may fool a bunch of people, but you certainly will NEVER fool the KING, you will NOT fool Jesus! Are you lying to yourself and lying to others? Or are you willing to truly come to Jesus as LORD and KING? Are you willing to accept the Holy Spirit in your life? Are you willing to be LED by the Holy Spirit?

May the grace of Jesus be with you.

From: Richard Anderson on Facebook

Sin causes instant spiritual BLINDNESS… Sadly, most Christians will make a deal with the Devil to gratify the desires of the flesh; truly believing that Father God will forgive them for their wanted/Planned sin after they’ve enjoyed it for a while….This is a PLAGUE in our modern churches…Sin-Repent. Sin-Repent. Sin-Repent….All PLANNED SIN (((INIQUITY))) NEEDS TO BE MOURNED OVER; REPENTED OF, AND DONE AWAY WITH FOREVER IN ORDER TO BE FORGIVEN!!! This is the Plague that causes Blindness in our churches today!

Pastors REFUSE TO (((WARN))) ANYONE OF THIS PLAGUE—ALL THE WHILE TEACHING A (((FALSE-GRACE))) MESSAGE THAT IS LEADING EVERYONE TO HELL in their congregations!!! (((THERE IS NO FORGIVENESS/MERCY/ OR GRACE FOR ACTIVE SIN)))!!!

Let me put it this way: (IF) you accepted me into your home; gave me a place at your table, and I started ((knowingly)) doing the things you hate, in your house…..Then, feeling guilty and ashamed; I asked you for forgiveness and you forgave me, BUT…..I started doing it again, and again, and again…Wouldn’t you KICK ME OUT OF YOUR HOUSE UNTIL I HAD A TRACK-RECORD OF RIGHTEOUSNESS???

Father God will NOT EVER let anyone into Heaven with WANTED-SIN in their hearts….((THE TRUTH!))

Why Progressive ‘Christians’ Are Ineffective and Unpersuasive — Loving like Jesus means caring about what He cared about

Jesus didn’t support a welfare state and ObamaCare. Jesus called people to take up their cross and follow Him. And churches then helped the people directly, spiritually and physically, often supernaturally, because they abided in Christ, living holy together.

Jesus didn’t support the government forcefully extracting money from the people to make Big Pharma rich as they drugged up the people with pharmakeia, and performed the most expensive operations possible.

Jesus dealt with the demons that caused the illnesses, and certainly would support eating the proper nutrients to take care of our bodies so we don’t need doctors.

These guys are out to lunch, teaching a different gospel.

From: The Christian Post

Why Progressive Christians Are Ineffective and Unpersuasive

One of the most fascinating speeches in the Bible happens in Acts 5 with Jewish Pharisee Gamaliel addressing the Sanhedrin. He warns them that if the message being preached by the Apostles of Jesus was of man, it would fail. But if it was from God, it couldn’t be stopped.

(Photo: Sojourners/Brandon Hook) Jim Wallis, president of Sojourners, holding up a “Poverty and Justice Bible” at the “Faithful Filibuster” protest, Washington, D.C., Oct. 10, 2013.

It was of God, and it wasn’t stopped.

I find that passage particularly relevant today within American Christendom.

There is a reason that liberal Christian movements like those championed by Jim Wallis, Rachel Held Evans, Shane Claiborne and others are so ineffective and unpersuasive in American culture. Rather than seeking to glorify and build the Kingdom of God, they regularly appropriate the language of Scripture to advocate for earthly, largely political causes that never address the principal need of humanity: redemption from sin.

For instance, preaching the words of Scripture when it comes to our nation’s policy towards refugees is admirable (provided it is done in context) only if you don’t ignore, downplay, or reject the counsel of Scripture when it comes to policy regarding abortion, marriage, and human sexuality. So-called progressive Christians have long chastised their conservative brethren for cherry-picking Scripture to support certain political causes. And to the extent that conservatives have done that, it has been to our detriment.

One need only walk through the graveyard of the “Religious Right” for confirmation of that reality. The Religious Right did not fall apart because it sought to apply the truth of the Bible to politics. It was when it tied the message of the Gospel to a political agenda. Before long, the Republican Party became an idol, and its success was seen as the most effective way to advance righteousness in the land. The Religious Right ceased to be about God, and thus it ceased to be.

But the same is happening with the Progressive Christianity of Wallis, Evans, Claiborne, Brian McLaren, and Tony Campolo that so desperately wants to be a formidable political force in America. In an effort to become such, they use the Bible as a weapon not against the sin and unrighteousness that plagues humanity, but against those who don’t share their politics.

Loving like Jesus means caring about what He cared about, wanting what He wanted, acting like He acted. And any rational reading of Scripture reveals that Jesus always cared first about the spiritual health of the individual, second about their physical health. Healing the physical was His way of demonstrating He had authority to heal the spiritual — which was far more important.

Progressive Christians who focus only on physical poverty while ignoring spiritual poverty are not contending for the faith. They are a political movement that finds themselves in a flesh-driven struggle for power rather than a spirit-driven struggle for Kingdom building. They mistake seeking social “justice” for the poor with seeking eternal justification for the sinner. That is a tragic confusion. …

Until that changes, they will remain a movement of man, not the cross. Gamaliel tells us how that story ends.

Exposing a Heretic: Joseph Prince — How can anyone be this deceived and still be watched on TV?

This is a Jaw dropping and very sad list; though, I have to give this one caveat:

We’re supposed to teach Jesus’ GREATEST TWO COMMANDMENTS as the NEW COVENANT requirement, not the old covenant law.

Jesus increased the salvation requirement in Matthew 5. So now we actually have to have pure hearts to avoid going to hell, not merely acceptable outward actions.

For example, Jesus proclaimed in Matthew 5 that ‘adultery’ now includes adultery in the heart (thought life). And now, not only must we not murder people, but we also cannot hate them, and etc..

Prince’s real name is Xenonamandar Jegahusiee Singh.

This list appears to be originally from Chace Gordon.

EXPOSING A HERETIC: JOSEPH PRINCE

“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.”–Romans 16:17-18 (KJV)

“Look to yourselves (take care) that you may not lose (throw away or destroy) all that we and you have labored for, but that you may [persevere until you] win and receive back a perfect reward [in full]. 9 Anyone who runs on ahead [of God] and does not abide in the doctrine of Christ [who is not content with what He taught] does not have God; but he who continues to live in the doctrine (teaching) of Christ [does have God], he has both the Father and the Son. 10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this doctrine [is disloyal to what Jesus Christ taught], do not receive him [do not accept him, do not welcome or admit him] into [your] house or bid him Godspeed or give him any encouragement. 11 For he who wishes him success [who encourages him, wishing him Godspeed] is a partaker in his evil doings.”–II John 8-11 (Amplified)

I don’t believe Joseph Prince was always a heretic; but as he describes in his book, “Destined to Reign”, there was a point in his life and ministry where he turned away from the doctrine he had originally believed and taught himself.  He still today is eloquent, charming, and gifted.  He has a mastery of the language of “Word of Faith” having been groomed by some great men of God.  He is also proficient at quoting scripture.  Nevertheless, he is utterly self-deceived having demonstrated a willful ignorance of truth and having cultivated a warped understanding and severely twisted and irresponsible method of Biblical interpretation.

Here is a short summary of some of the many deadly heresies advocated by Joseph Prince in “Destined to Reign”:

1-Grace and law are opposites (this lie was advocated by 2nd century heretic “Marcion”)

2-Grace is one-sided and unfair (downplays faith and obedience and misunderstands divine justice)

3- Christianity is effortless (the kingdom of heaven is a welfare state)

4-Asking forgiveness for sin is unnecessary for “believers”

5-Moses and Jesus taught opposite doctrines

6-The law brings condemnation (to the wicked) and therefore Jesus removed it

7-Preaching the law makes people sin more, therefore it should not be taught at church because it will harm your church congregations (better to leave them ignorant I guess)

8-The gift of righteousness means we are righteous even if we are not

9-Unconditional forgiveness

10-God was perpetually angry in the Old Testament and perpetually happy in the New Testament

11-God does not judge nations for wickedness

12-If God judges people, cities and nations today, then He should apologize to Jesus for the cross

13-Believers aren’t punished for sin

14-We never truly stop sinning but God’s ok with that

15-We are not held more accountable to God when we know more, nor do we face greater punishment if we fail having known the truth, nor will we go through greater trials or tribulations as we draw close to God

16-The Word of God doesn’t produce faith, only the Word of Christ

17-The Word of God and the word of Christ don’t agree on some things

18-Christian’s cannot commit the unpardonable sin

19-Once a person is saved they can never be lost

20-Part of Jesus’ teaching is not applicable because it’s “Old Testament”

21- We can’t take doctrine from the gospels because Jesus had not yet risen from the dead yet

22-Paul’s the lead authority on doctrine because he addressed the church

23-Confession of sins for believers is about “being open” with God, not about repentance because we are already forgiven

24-Even though the book of I John was written to the church, the opening chapter is only for Gnostics and therefore we can disregard the instructions to confess our sin

25-Confession of sin is unnecessary because we would have to confess all the time (inferring we would never stop sinning)

26-Paul didn’t teach confession of sins

27-Christ died to save us from the Old Testament covenant

28-Not only should we not teach “the law” from the pulpit, we should only teach grace (even though the New Testament gives 1050 commands for believers to obey, we should still skip that part)

29-Condemnation is the deepest root of all our problems (actually condemnation is caused by sin, hence the deeper problem is sin)

30-An evil conscience is one that convicts you of sin and failure (in other words a WORKING conscience)

31-The Holy Spirit does not convict us of sin or of judgment

32-The Holy Spirit only convicts us of righteousness (when we sin)

33-Satan likes the Ten Commandments

34-The law caused Paul to be deceived in sin

35-Paul continued in sin but realized he was not condemned anyway

36-The prodigal son didn’t really repent, he was just conning his father for food

37-We shouldn’t talk about sin, repentance or judgment from the pulpit, we should only talk about the goodness of God

38-Jesus frequently broke the law of Moses to help sinners

39-God didn’t unconditionally protect rebellious sinners in the Old Testament who were bitten by serpents but He will unconditionally protect rebellious sinners (“Christians”) in the New Testament

40-God had Israel put the Ten Commandments in the Ark of the Covenant to “hide” the law under the mercy seat

41-Abraham had a covenant of grace, but Moses’ had an inferior covenant of works

42-Repentance doesn’t involve mourning or sorrow (or confession) for sin, it just means you changed your mind about something

43-The doctrine of repentance from sin is not for believers

44-Grace is a teacher so we don’t need the law

45-Grace-preaching is the only means of effective evangelism

46-Paul “winked” at the sins of Corinth because they were under grace but firmly rebuked the sins of Galatia because they taught the law

47-“Falling from grace” doesn’t mean sinning, it means reverting to the law.”

48-If you teach the law you are a “man-pleaser”

49-Fasting is unnecessary and is only in the New Testament because fasting enthusiasts added it in later manuscript copies

50-“When Satan tempted Jesus to “turn the stones to bread”, he was actually tempting Jesus to get nourishment from the law instead of trusting in the love of God!!!”

51-Fasting is unnecessary and is only in the New Testament because fasting enthusiasts added it in later manuscript copies

52-When Satan tempted Jesus to “turn the stones to bread”, he was actually tempting Jesus to get nourishment from the law instead of trusting in the love of God….

The Truth About Depression: Drugs Cannot Solve a Spiritual Problem

This video is not from a Christian perspective, but I find it interesting, and decided to write this:

Actually, demons cause a lot of depression. How come no one talks about demons anymore? In the New Testament, when people were sick they cast out demons. But we don’t have demons??

Many people are depressed because they rightfully feel condemnation because they’re not in Christ Jesus. They’ve hurt people and refuse to admit it and make amends. Pills don’t solve spiritual and rebellion problems.

Vitamins and minerals can help, absolutely, when there are deficiencies, but shutting off the conscience chemically with drugs cannot make us right with God and men — and don’t get rid of the demons.

Reconciliation is the unpreached message because most preachers refuse to reconcile to be free. Many preachers, possibly the majority, James-3 curse people who call them to repent, even wishing that people would die. “How can this be,” James says in chapter 3.

Paul worked out his salvation through *fear* and *TREMBLING* (way more than just “reverence”). Paul ran his race to win, so was able to say: “Herein I also practice ALWAYS having a conscience void of offense toward God and men” (Acts 24:16).

Paul could relax while on earth, and died with a clean conscience, so is now in heaven.

Are we in Christ Jesus, having no condemnation because we walk according to the HOLY Spirit and not according to the flesh?

Pharmaceuticals don’t solve spiritual problems. Repentance, forgiving, reconciliation and praying in the Holy Ghost does — being right with God and people — demon free!!!

“Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the assembly, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord, and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. Confess your offenses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective.” – James 5:14-16

There is therefore now NO CONDEMNATION to those who are IN CHRIST Jesus, who don’t WALK according to the flesh, but ACCORDING TO THE SPIRIT.”  – Romans 8:1

28 One of the scribes came, and heard them questioning together. Knowing that he had answered them well, asked him, “Which commandment is the greatest of all?” 29 Jesus answered, “The greatest is, ‘Hear, Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one: 30 you shall LOVE THE LORD your God with ALL YOUR HEART, and with ALL YOUR SOUL, and with ALL YOUR MIND, and with ALL YOUR STRENGTH.’ This is the *first commandment*. 31 The *second* is like this, ‘You shall LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.” – JESUS in Mark 12

John is also loudly anti-charismatic and strongly teaches the once-saved-always-saved heresy, including in his study Bible.
