Wolf Pastors among us!

 Let's follow along in the mind of a false pastor, a false shepherd, and how he shreds the truth of God while proclaiming to stand for Christianity.

This is the plague we have in Western society that allows secularism into our homes.

PART 3

NO HOPE IN ISLAM

 

It's a religion that's meant to keep people submitting and proving oneself in struggling for Islam as well as works and repetitious religious rituals.   However, if one looks into the historicity of the texts and the inconsistency of its claims, there's no way that having the FREEDOM of leave or deny this religion without compulsion, death threats and blasphemy laws... people would not break free even more than they are now. 

In many nations, freedom is happening (in the West, Iran, Yemen, Turkey, Africa, etc.).

Praying that The Holy Spirit of God will continue freeing people from the bondage of religious deception.

Is there assurance of salvation?

Is it a cult?

Is Muhammed a true prophet?

  

Once they learn, they leave!

Many are leaving Islam

Conversion by love or by the sword?

Jesus says, "love your wives", Muhammed says "beat your wives"...

The EO Church trend

 

Check out my YouTube video: "Is Eastern Orthodoxy the New move?"

There are many Protestants moving towards EO but there are also many coming BACK to Protestantism because they found out what's behind the glam-bam, bling-blam; holy murals and cool garb!  

The EO Church doesn't believe in the fallenness of man the way Protestants do.

They don't believe in Christ's atonement the same way.

Baptism and Salvation outside the EO church is not allowed... but it is, but not really.  Yet, they don't believe in an "invisible" Church.   It's complicated!

A BIBLICAL ANALYSIS OF THE EASTERN ORTHODOX CHURCH - Part 1

PART 2:

=========================

Here's the account of Cyril Lucaris, an Eastern Orthodox who dared to go purely orthodox and apostolic, and was treated equally as his Master, Jesus before pharisees.    

=================================

What Did They Get WRONG? Orthodox VS Stuart & Cliffe Knechtle

 *There's nothing more apostolic than The Word of God.

*There is nothing infallible but the Word of God.

*The ultimate authority is The Word of God.

=======================

Check out these other videos on EO vs. Protestantism, debates and personal testimonies from people who have come back to Protestantism from the EO church system.

==============

EO vs. Protestant Apologist, Matt Slick:

Another Matt Slick debate that later turns into a real dumpster fire.

Notice how the Roman Catholic can't stick to the agreed-upon debate topic, and immediately wants to appeal to the supposed infallibility of extra-Biblical sources.

=================

On The following video/podcast, Dr. James White and Pastor Jeff Durbin discuss the major problems with the Roman Catholic Church's stance on doctrines (in this case, the doctrine of eternal security but also other doctrines) where apostolic churches (in general) must regard tradition (as well as Church fathers and ecumenical church councils) as infallible instead of acknowledging that scripture alone is infallible, and sufficient as God's revelational truth.

REFORMATION DAY 2024!

 

Reformation Day celebrates the joyful beauty of the liberating gospel of Jesus Christ.

A single event on a single day changed the world. It was October 31, 1517. Brother Martin, a monk and a scholar, had struggled for years with his church, the church in Rome. He had been greatly disturbed by an unprecedented indulgence sale. The story has all the makings of a Hollywood blockbuster. Let’s meet the cast.

First, there is the young bishop—too young by church laws—Albert of Mainz. Not only was he bishop over two bishoprics, he desired an additional archbishopric over Mainz. This, too, was against church laws. So Albert appealed to the pope in Rome, Leo X. From the De Medici family, Leo X greedily allowed his tastes to exceed his financial resources. Enter the artists and sculptors, Raphael and Michelangelo.

When Albert of Mainz appealed for a papal dispensation, Leo X was ready to deal. Albert, with the papal blessing, would sell indulgences for past, present, and future sins. All of this sickened the monk Martin Luther. Can we buy our way into heaven? Luther had to speak out.

But why October 31? November 1 held a special place in the church calendar as All Saints’ Day. On November 1, 1517, a massive exhibit of newly acquired relics would be on display at Wittenberg, Luther’s home city. Pilgrims would come from all over, genuflect before the relics, and take hundreds, if not thousands, of years off time in purgatory. Luther’s soul grew even more vexed. None of this seemed right.

Martin Luther, a scholar, took quill in hand, dipped it in his inkwell and penned his Ninety-Five Theses on October 31, 1517. These were intended to spark a debate, to stir some soul-searching among his fellow brothers in the church. The Ninety-Five Theses sparked far more than a debate. The Ninety-Five Theses also revealed the church was far beyond rehabilitation. It needed a reformation. The church—and the world—would never be the same.

One of Luther’s Ninety-Five Theses simply declares, “The Church’s true treasure is the gospel of Jesus Christ.” That alone is the meaning of Reformation Day. The church had lost sight of the gospel because it had long ago papered over the pages of God’s Word with layer upon layer of tradition. Mere tradition often brings about systems of works, of earning your way back to God. It was true of the Pharisees, and it was true of medieval Roman Catholicism. Didn’t Christ Himself say, “My yoke is easy and My burden is light”? Reformation Day celebrates the joyful beauty of the liberating gospel of Jesus Christ.

What is Reformation Day? It is the day the light of the gospel broke forth out of darkness. It was the day that began the Protestant Reformation. It was a day that led to Martin Luther, John Calvin, John Knox, and many other Reformers helping the church find its way back to God’s Word as the only supreme authority for faith and life and leading the church back to the glorious doctrines of justification by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone. It kindled the fires of missionary endeavors, it led to hymn writing and congregational singing, and it led to the centrality of the sermon and preaching for the people of God. It is the celebration of a theological, ecclesiastical, and cultural transformation.

So we celebrate Reformation Day. This day reminds us to be thankful for our past and to the monk turned Reformer. What’s more, this day reminds us of our duty, our obligation, to keep the light of the gospel at the center of all we do.

What is the doctrine of the perspicuity of Scripture?

The word perspicuity means “clarity.” To say that something is perspicacious is to say that it is clear. The doctrine of the perspicuity (clarity) of Scripture is one of the basic tenets of Protestant evangelicalism regarding the Bible, along with the doctrines of the inspiration, inerrancy, and sufficiency of Scripture. In short, the doctrine of perspicuity means that the central message of the Bible is clear and understandable and that the Bible itself can be properly interpreted in a normal, literal sense.

The doctrine of the perspicuity of Scripture was a main belief of the Reformers. Martin Luther taught against the Roman Catholic claim that the Bible is imperspicuous, that is, too obscure and difficult for the common people to understand. The Bible, the priests and bishops taught, was unclear, and the people should not be trusted to interpret or even read it for themselves. On the contrary, the Reformers encouraged lay Christians to study and interpret God’s Word on their own. The Reformers believed that the Bible proclaimed itself to be inherently clear and that God is able to communicate His message to all men, even the unlettered. A main tenet of the Reformation is that Scripture is clear enough for the simplest person to live by. Because of their belief in the perspicuity of Scripture, men like John Wycliffe, William Tyndale, Martin Luther, Myles Coverdale, Thomas Matthew, and Pierre Olivétan went to great lengths to translate the Bible into the vernacular.

The Bible itself proclaims its own perspicuity. Deuteronomy 6:6–7 exhorts parents to teach the Scriptures to their children, indicating that they can be understood by children. The New Testament confirms this when the apostle Paul encourages Timothy to continue in the things he has known of the Holy Scriptures from childhood (2 Timothy 3:14–15a). Psalm 19:7 declares that the “testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple” (ESV). Surely, the simple cannot be made wise by something they are unable to understand. Psalm 119:130 further explains that God’s Word “gives understanding to the simple,” meaning that it is not necessary to be highly educated to comprehend its truths. The Bible’s meaning is clear to all.

The doctrine of perspicuity means the Bible is clear in its essential matters and able to expose to man that which is comprehensible to him about God—His nature, His character, His dealings with mankind in the past, and His plans for the future. The Bible is clear in all that is necessary for man to know in regard to his sinful state, his need for salvation, and the means of attaining that salvation, faith in Christ (Romans 3:22).

The doctrine of perspicuity does not mean that every passage of Scripture is equally clear as to its precise meaning. Certainly, there are passages that can be obscure to modern readers due to historical or cultural references. And some of the theology is difficult; Peter said that Scripture contains “some things that are hard to understand” (2 Peter 3:16). The perspicuity of the Word of God does not eliminate the need for interpretation, explanation, and exposition of the Bible by diligent scholars.

CANON and SOLA SCRIPTURA

 

-The Canon of scripture isn't something that was found, formulated or instituted in the early centuries of the church or by the church but instead it was what had already been devotional to the early Christians as they gathered and copied apostolic instruction from the apostles and eventually ran from area to area to escape persecution.

Early Christians already knew what they had in their possession from the beginning of the collecting of what we now know to be the Christian manuscripts.  They knew what was authoritative and what came from the apostles either by their own pen or the pen of those who were instructed by the apostles.

-The Canon of scripture was not created or instituted as authoritative by a church creed or council.  Instead, even early church fathers wrote concerning its self-authenticating authority of these books and differentiate them from others with regard to importance and sacredness.  

-The authoritativeness of scripture is not only seen in scripture directly (2 Peter 3:16; 1 Timothy 5:18, etc.) but easily perceived by the authoritative writing accounts of the Apostles and those they instructed to write concerning their witness of Christ's commandments and the gospel.

-Long before Emperor Constantine (300's AD), there were a core of (approximately 22 out of 27 books of our NT Canon) which were mentioned among the early patristic church fathers (starting from 101AD) demonstrating their sacred relevance. Among these were the gospels and Paul's epistles.

-Why NOT the apocryphal writings in the NT and OT?

Simply because Protestants wanted to use the Bible (scriptures) that was around during the days of Christ and what He would have used in the OT.

The NT quotes an extraordinary amount of the OT and the NT never quotes from apocryphal texts.

**It was only as a counter-reformation reaction that the Roman Catholic Church decided on their own official Church Canon of scripture.  

So, the idea that books at any time were "taken out" of the Canon is a gross misunderstanding of history.

The OT Canon which Jesus followed included The Law, The Prophets and the Psalms, and so these were what needed to be included within a complete Canon of scripture for Protestant Christians.  

*** Note that these decisions are ones that are made with a full scope on honoring and making SCRIPTURE exclusively authoritative above and beyond outward tradition, ecclesiastic councils, etc.

Not that apostolic traditional churches have less care or concern over scripture but that nothing FALLIBLE should get in the way of scriptural INFALLIBLE teaching and authority.

DO WE NEED AN AUTHORITATIVE CHURCH TO DECIDE WHAT BOOKS ARE IN THE CANON?

-NO.   When Jesus told the Jewish leaders, "Have you not read what God said to YOU.." (Concerning David, Moses, the resurrection, the prophets, etc.)

There was an already established OT Canon which was authoritative without an official COUNCIL to establish it other than God Himself.

Therefore, the same thing goes for our NT Canon:

Hebrews 1:1-2 -  

"God, having spoken long ago to the fathers in the prophets in many portions and in many ways,

in these last days spoke to us in His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds,.."

Which Old Testament books are not quoted in the New Testament?

The books of Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon, Zephaniah, Nahum, Ezra, Nehemiah, Obadiah, and Esther are not quoted in the NT. 

HOWEVER, ALL OT books in the Hebrew Canon were laid up by the Jews in their temple, and so early Protestants wanted to use the official canon which were accepted by the Jews.

*There's an argument  that claims that the OT depended upon oral tradition therefore, the NT church also depends upon oral tradition of the NT.   But this is not an adequate argument b/c The NT quotes the OT 283 times!

Included therein are the four books of Moses (Torah).  So if the OT is inadequate because it depended upon any oral traditions, then the NT can't be reliable either because the reliability of the NT is dependent upon the reliability of the OT.

Globalist Elite's Trans-Insanity!

 

 MAKE IT GO AWAY!!!

It's a globalist agenda that means to distract and to capture more and more people's minds away from reality, truth, and condition them into further cultural rebellion against God.

Crazy Wide-eyed woke woman is part of our American education system!  Say it isn't so yo! 

How sad!

Those who don't know or fear God influencing young folks on fluidity and crack-pot "science" to exacerbate the culture of death and suicide of those who are already confused. 

Remember the youth in your prayers saints!

Satan is having a field day on humanity!

Let's get out there and reach the lost.

What IS the Gospel of Jesus Christ?

 

Whereas some believe the gospel is found in the definition of what is a true Christian, the definition of a true Christian (among many defining characteristics) isn't just someone who believes they can be free from sin but someone who is indwelt by the Holy Spirit of God.

Unless one is born again (John 3:3) they can't see the kingdom of God let alone conquer their sins.

Desiring to be free from sin is obviously to be coveted but it's not the gospel.  

Our being free from sin is a consequence of believing the true gospel which is that we believe that Christ is the Son of God, The Creator, who came into the world to die for our sins and by faith, God, the Holy Spirit indwells us by God's grace.

Having made Him Lord of our lives.  We now walk in the Holy Spirit, purifying ourselves and growing in Christ to a mature stature towards the resembling of Christ's perfect moral standard, by God's grace and power.

We're saved by grace alone, through faith alone, and in Christ alone.   It is a gift of God and not of our merit or "good" works.

Spanking prohibited! (worldly wisdom)

 

Why would "the world" be against parents spanking their children? The research, the stats, the "experts" all say, it's unhealthy and counter-productive for good outcomes. But what do they mean by "good outcomes" and do they even care about the Biblical wisdom that instructs "spanking when necessary"? On this podcast, I try and bring clarity of the finer points of this argument.

"Born this way'ism" is a lie

https://youtube.com/shorts/PFenIT-V8jI?si=lP5CdqSGHVpEvqrj

Is homo attraction sin? (Orientation, born this way, etc.)  All that is a lie. Homo attraction isn't the same as hetero attraction.

The Bible calls it unnatural. Lust can come from attraction. The attraction to a painting, flower, etc. IS a natural attraction. 

One can change their mind on what once attracted them.

Can you change your mind on finding attraction in a flower? But can you change your mind about being attracted or infatuated to people. I believe we can.

To say it can't be done for homosexuals is to believe in the false "born this way'ism" being taught in the culture.  Even if an attraction persists, the grace of God will continue conforming a renewing mind to change. There can be no more attraction to money, women, sexual lust, lying, cheating, etc.  We wait on Him, until we're healed and/or until He comes!

Are we willing to believe it?

1 Corinthians 6:9-20:

9 Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals,10 nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God.11 And such were some of you; but you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.

FLEE SEXUAL IMMORALITY

12 All things are lawful for me, but not all things are profitable. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be mastered by anything.13 Food is for the stomach and the stomach is for food, but God will do away with both of them. Yet the body is not for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord is for the body.14 Now God has not only raised the Lord, but will also raise us up through His power.15 Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take away the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? May it never be!16 Or do you not know that the one who joins himself to a prostitute is one body with her? For He says, “The two shall become one flesh.”17 But the one who joins himself to the Lord is one spirit with Him.18 Flee sexual immorality. Every other sin that a man commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral man sins against his own body.19 Or do you not know that your body is a sanctuary of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and that you are not your own?20 For you were bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body.

Modern-day Canaanites!

 

The world lies in the power of the evil one (1 John 5:19).

The world wants to lie and cover-up its evils.  The proof of their evils is then covered up and denied.

This is what they're trying to do with the truth of the evidence of early child sacrifice while they indict God of evil.  

The Bible is SO TRUE how it depicts the human heart that strays from God:

"But he who sins against me does violence to his own soul; All those who hate me love death" --- Proverbs 8:36 

 Today it's no different.  Those who will be for sacrificing their children in our modern-day child sacrificing rituals for convenience make excuses to do it and defend it.    But one day, they'll deny that they were for it and continue turning to The God of Heaven to blaspheme His mighty name. 

Continue to pray for end of human abortion.

The days are evil.  Judgment is upon us.

Repent, The Kingdom of God is here!

The book of Galatians (overview message)

 

Reponse videos coming soon!

Lord willing, I'll be posting a response video to this brother who once again, in his ignorance is misrepresenting the character of all reformed believers, and the understanding of the doctrines of grace. There's so much false teaching out there and so much that inevitably needs to be challenged IN LOVE (within the body of faith), and we're FORCED to respond to it --- OR allow more and more ignorance to permeate.  As much as I don't want to continue this tug-a-war, it sometimes has to be done.  The rules of engagement, however, must be LOVE and HONESTY.

............

He calls himself "Helitutor" but I call him Hell-Tutor because he does the work of Satan - which is DECEPTION.  Mr. Hell Tutor hates "religion" but the fact escapes him that he is himself extremely religious because mankind is inherently religious.

Below is my response to these Bible passages which are here being used to argue against the fundamentals of Christianity. There are those who need to alter the proper scholarship and historical narrative of scripture in order to make their case against God. At the end of it all, it's about truth and those who commit to this dishonest scholarship end up with that light of truth shining on them which identifies their ignorance, bad motives and false presuppositions.

Shame! Shame! Shame!

Ignorance or Willful Denial or TRUTH?

 

The Council of Nicea (myth argument)

 

If I hear one more person say the Bible was put together or taken apart at the Council of Nicea.... 

Please people... spread the word..  It's been over 20 years since the fiction book came out and the movie starring Tom Hanks.

Who wants to keep embarrassing themselves? 

(from the article: No, Nicaea Didn’t Create the Canon (thegospelcoalition.org)

As our culture becomes increasingly secular, many will continue to cast doubt on the Bible’s origins and especially on early Christianity’s role in the canon’s formation. Although the history of the canon is a bit messy at junctures, there is no evidence it was established by a few Christian bishops and churches convened at Nicaea in 325.

Atheist MIT Professor Converts to Christianity

 There's science and then there's "scientism".  Science is a methodology, but many have made it their end-all-be-all to truth.  When the elites of the world need to push a narrative which they think will attack the big-ticket item questions of life, truth; and the why's of life, they'll use it to end the questions and bring on conformity.

You have to have FAITH in order to even DO science.

But that's not what's being taught in early education these days.

"Trust the science" is what's being taught early; especially during which our educational system seems to be failing.

If the dollar weren't being phased away, you might be seeing "In science we trust" on our dollar bills.  :)
