Pope Francis

The Bible says:

"𝐋𝐄𝐓 𝐆𝐎𝐃 𝐁𝐄 𝐓𝐑𝐔𝐄, 𝐁𝐔𝐓 𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐘 𝐌𝐀𝐍 𝐀 𝐋𝐈𝐀𝐑!" (Acts 5:29b).

What does the Bible say about "popes"?

• The Pope trusted in sacraments, works, and a false church—not in the new birth through faith in Christ alone.

𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻:
Unless the Pope repented and believed the true Gospel of Jesus Christ before his death, he is under God's wrath. John 3:36, "He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him."

The Bible says:
"𝐖𝐄 𝐎𝐔𝐆𝐇𝐓 𝐓𝐎 𝐎𝐁𝐄𝐘 𝐆𝐎𝐃 𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐑 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐍 𝐌𝐄𝐍" (Acts 5:29b). I am truly sad that the Pope didn't go to Heaven. If the Bible is true (and I believe it is), then Pope Francis went to Hell forever in his pride and sins. Contrary to the damnable teachings of Roman Catholicism, you cannot get to Heaven via good works, sacraments and faithfulness to the Catholic church. Jesus plainly warned in John 3:3 that except a man be BORN AGAIN, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God.

You get saved by BELIEVING ON THE LORD JESUS CHRIST (Acts 16:30-31). This includes receiving Christ's sacrifice on the cross of Calvary 2,000 years ago as full payment for your sins, believing that Jesus was buried, but then after three days physically resurrected from the dead. This is the Gospel (i.e., the Good News) by which all who BELIEVE IT are instantly, irrevocably and permanently saved (Romans 1:16; 1st Corinthians 15:1-6).

The Devil's Master Plan For The End Times

2nd Thessalonians 2:7-8, “For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked be revealed.”

The Holy Bible foretells of the coming Antichrist, who will rise to power as a world leader. Satan's master plan (i.e., the working toward the coming Antichrist) was already at work even during the days of the apostle Paul. The preceding video sermon by Pastor Steven Anderson is excellent, but I disagree with his PreWrath Rapture (chart) position. I believe that the Holy Bible teaches a PreTribulation Rapture. This “mystery of iniquity” (the spirit of Antichrist) is still at work today, marching ahead in full force:

2nd Thessalonians 2:3-12, “Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth [hindereth] will let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.”

Today the spirit of Antichrist, and the spirit of iniquity, are at work, which already existed in New testament times. The Bible mentions a Beast that rises up out of the sea, having the characteristics of FOUR BEASTS:

Revelation 13:1-2, “And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads [world powers throughout history] and ten horns [modern world power nations], and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon [Satan] gave him [Antichrist] his power, and his seat, and great authority.” [added comments]

The book of Daniel coincides with the preceding passage of Scripture. The book of Daniel foreshadows the end times global (or world) government (aka, a New World Order). In the following prophetic passage from Daniel, the FOUR BEAST of Revelation 13:1-2 are individually mentioned. We see a prophetic snapshot of history spanning from Babylon to the Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ (I have added my comments in red type):

Daniel 7:1-9, “In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions of his head upon his bed: then he wrote the dream, and told the sum of the matters. Daniel spake and said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea. And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another. The first was like a lion [Babylon], and had eagle's wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man's heart was given to it. And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear [Medo-Persia], and it raised up itself on one side, and it had three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh. After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard [Greece], which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads [four kingdoms Alexander the Great's empire was divided into]; and dominion was given to it. After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast [Rome], dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces [the divided Roman empire], and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns [ten modern nations]. I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn [Antichrist], before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things [Revelation 13:5, “And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.”]. I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days [Jesus Christ] did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame, and his wheels as burning fire.” [added comments]

Isn't that beautiful? The Word of God tells us the future. Bible prophecy is history written in advance. The Holy Scriptures mention a coming global government, ruled by one man, the Antichrist... “POWER WAS GIVEN HIM OVER ALL KINDREDS, AND TONGUES, AND NATIONS” (Revelation 13:7b).

Except those who get saved during the Tribulation period, the entire unsaved world will worship the Antichrist (Beast). The Antichrist will make war with the saints and overcome them, killing them. Literally, the world will become a giant prison planet enslaved to the Antichrist and his Luciferian Illuminati who serve Satan:

Revelation 13:3-9, “And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. If any man have an ear, let him hear.”

Notice that “ALL THAT DWELL UPON THE EARTH SHALL WORSHIP HIM” (Antichrist), whose names are not written in the Lamb's Book of Life.

Revelation 13:10-14, “He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints. And I beheld another beast [False Prophet] coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb [symbolized by Baphomet, a major Masonic figure], and he spake as a dragon [Satan]. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men [I believe this is Star-Wars-like laser technology from space satellites... just my opinion], And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.”

The whole world is going to be brought into line with Judaism. That is the religion of the Antichrist! Everywhere today, professed Christians are claiming to have found their “Hebrew roots.” It is becoming a huge movement. Another popular term today is “Torah observing Christians.” It's a big buzz amongst homeschoolers. This is the satanic merging of Judaism with Christianity into a false religion of end time apostasy. You've probably heard a lot of talk about “blood moons” and celebrating “feast days.” Beware of it, it is of the Devil. Jews only comprise 2% of the American population, yet Jews account also for 30% of Buddhists in America (aka, JewBu's). There will be a uniting of Judaism and Buddhism in the end times.

We are hearing about Chrislam (Christianity merged with Islam). Satan is trying to dilute the different religions into one movement. The different religions won't lose their individual identities; but rather, will share a common religious view of Theosophical (Luciferian) spirituality instead of Biblical theology. This Luciferian dogma includes a tolerance for homosexuality. The Devil's message today is for everyone to unite in the name of peace. Daniel 8:25, “And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.” The churches are being destroyed today by the deception of tolerating wickedness under the guide of God's love for everyone. Although we are commanded to love (1st John 4:11), we are also commanded to refute all works of darkness (Ephesians 5:11). It is a sin to lack either! Psalms 97:10 tells believers to HATE EVIL!!!

Too many pastors, evangelists, missionaries, churches and preachers today are dipping their sails in sinful compromise, refraining from preaching against sin in an attempt to reach the lost with the Gospel. Consequently, churches have become soft on sin!!! When homosexuals feel comfortable attending church, something is VERY WRONG!!! We've even got pastors today who are blaming Christians for driving homosexuals away from God, allegedly because churches fail to love sodomites and baby them with a milk bottle, bib and pacifier. If people won't come to Jesus Christ apart from admitting being wicked sinners, they cannot be saved (John 3:20; 1st John 1:8-10). God only saves THE UNGODLY (Romans 4:5-6). There is a satanic agenda today to get the churches to embrace the homosexual community in the name of “love,” so that preachers no longer say anything offensive that may drive queers away! That is a wicked philosophy. Preachers must cry aloud against all sin and wickedness, without compromise and without apology!

Satan Is Deceiving The Whole World

Revelation 12:9, “And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.”

Here are several ways that Satan is deceiving the churches today. Satan has crept into the churches. I encourage you to read these many articles that I am linking to. I intentionally repeat many truths in my writings, because repetition is the key to learning. Every article that I write dilutes the total sum of all my articles. With that truth in kind, I am careful not to fill up my websites with garbage. I have visited countless websites, where there was so much information that I lost interest. It was too boring and overwhelming to read, in some cases. I want my articles to get read. I have one goal, which is to help you. I want people to get born-again. Then I want them to grow spiritually in the Lord. I want them to become a soul-winner, so they can win souls to Christ and be very happy in Heaven one day. I want you to better understand the world today, from a Christian perspective.

Satan is a beautiful liar, and his sinister ministers are everywhere, corrupting the churches (2nd Corinthians 11:13-15). Heresy is creeping into our fundamental Baptist churches by the hour. Please listen to the MP3 sermon by Dr. Jack Hyles titled, “FUNDAMENTALIST HERESY.” Watch your back Jack! Dispensationalism is a false doctrine, which has been used to sneak Zionism into the churches. Zionism is manmade Israel. By tricking the churches to support manmade Israel, the Illuminati (Luciferians who control the world) are exploiting the churches to support the forming Beast system of the coming Antichrist. The most effective attack by Satan has been the modern Bible revision movement. By incrementally changing the Bible, Satan is gradually corrupting the Word of God to destroy the churches. The church today has lost her authority!!! The modern Bible versions are a part of the Luciferian conspiracy to build a New World Order. NEW WORLD ORDER BIBLE VERSIONS (an awesome 1:46 hour documentary).

In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. Prolific author, George Orwell, said that in his book “1984.” He is correct. Deception abounds today, from the lying mainstream newsmedia to the counterfeit Bible versions flooding our churches. The most frustrating thing about deception is how easily so many people buy into it. Author Mark Twain rightly said, “It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled.” So true! If there is one thing I could teach you, next to the Gospel, it would be to think “objectively.” That is, question everything!!!

Satan knows that the most effective deception is the half-truth. Satan often hides a LIE between two TRUTHS. The half-truth is the most effective deception, because in part it can be defended with incontestable logic! This is the case today with many false prophets, who pervert the Gospel. For example: Consider Evangelist Paul Washer's corrupt plan of salvation. He teaches that eternal life is a free gift, paid for by Jesus' blood, but then he plainly says that you cannot know you're saved in a moment. Mr. Washer teaches that it is wrong to write down your name and the date you were saved, in the back of your Bible. The reason why is because he says you've got to prove you're saved by the life you live. Folks, that is not the simplicity that is in Christ (2nd Corinthians 11:3-4). Discipleship is not evidence of sonship! Do you see how Paul Washer hides a lie between two truths?

Beware of anyone who teaches that you cannot know you're saved immediately, right now, permanently. If salvation us a gift, and it absolutely is, then there's nothing that needs to be added. If you admit that you are a guilty sinner in God's sight (Romans 3:19), and you BELIEVE that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God (John 20:31), Who died on the cross for your sins, was buried, and then bodily resurrected three days later (1st Corinthians 15:1-6), and that is your only hope for forgiveness of sins and eternal life... YOU ARE SAVED!!! 

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.” Believe on the Good News [Gospel] of Jesus Christ and the work is done!!! We are saved by BELIEVING the Good News! That's it! It is that simple to be saved. How you choose to live is an entirely separate matter of discipleship (Romans 12:1). God scourges and chastises His disobedient children (Hebrews 12:6-8).

For a crash course on the New World Order, I highly recommend reading everything you can find by Commander William Guy Car (1895-1959). See, PAWNS IN THE GAME and SATAN: PRINCE OF THIS WORLD. Also, THE CONSPIRACY. You need to know that the ultimate plot of the Luciferian leaders of this world (aka, the Illuminati) is World War III. Also, please watch the 2:19 hour awesome, historical, eye-opening, documentary by Alex Jones titled, END GAME!

I believe the Antichrist is alive and being groomed to become a world leader. The Bible calls him the “man of sin” (2nd Thessalonians 2:3). Therefore, the Devil is promoting all manner of sexual perversion and atheism to prepare the world to receive the “man of sin,” the “Beast,” the Antichrist. Revelation 13:4, “And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?” A cashless society is coming. A highly technological police state is coming. The Mark of the Beast is coming. The Rapture is coming! Even so, come, Lord Jesus!!!

Get Busy For God My Friend, Time Is Running Out!

I encourage you to search the articles on this website. There's a search box function at the top of the main webpage. In these last days we as believers need to know what's going on. Satan is tricking everybody! That's exactly what Revelation 12:9 says. Have you believed a lie? I care about you friend. I've never made a penny, nor received a penny, for my online labors. I don't monetize my YouTube videos. I am not against others who do, but I want everyone to know my heart in this matter. This is a labor of love for God. You are my reward. You are my Epistle. 2nd Corinthians 3:2, “Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men.” I pray daily for God to work in the mind and heart of my web visitors, and to bless my labors for Christ, because in my own human strength I cannot help anyone. I am just a clump of clay with a spirit inside. Psalms 127:1, “Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.”

Don't make the mistake of turning information into a god. Many people today worship information, instead of God. God didn't save us to BE GOOD, He saved us to DO GOOD! First, if you do not know 100% certain that you are saved, you can KNOW right now. All you have to do is admit you are a guilty sinner in God's sight and BELIEVE the Gospel. Eternal life is a free gift, please make sure you have it! If you are saved, then get busy for God, because your happiness in Heaven will be determined by your life down here on earth. Daniel 12:3 doesn't say that people who live moral lives will shine as the brightness of the stars; but rather, they that turn many to righteousness. We all have a duty to preach the Gospel with others. You'll never be happy in this life as a Christian until you become a soul-winner. Only God can save a soul, but our part is to share the Gospel with them (1st Corinthians 3:8).

Please watch the video sermons, GETTING STARTED SOUL-WINNING (by Pastor Steven Anderson), and SOULWINNING (by Pastor Danny Castle). There is much that we can all do to get out the Gospel message to the lost. If nothing else, we can plant seeds, to get the truth of the Gospel into people's souls. May we redeem the time, laboring to win souls for Christ while we still can, for the night cometh when no man can work.

Make sure dear friend that you have been born again, by faith alone in the name of Jesus Christ. Simply by faith receive His sacrifice on the cross as full payment for your sins, believing that He was buried, but then ressurected from the dead three days later. This is the Gospel (i.e., the Good News) by which all who BELIEVE IT are saved (Romans 1:16; 1st Corinthians 15:1-6). If you have never read the helpful book “I NEVER KNEW YOU” by Michael P. Bowen, I encourage you to do so. I hope that you will at least read the introduction, which will reiterate what I just said to you from the inspired Holy Bible how to go to Heaven. Thank you for reading my blog.

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

The Antichrist Roman Catholic Pope Has Died At 88

Mark 7:7-9, “Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do. And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.”

Sadly, Jorge Mario Bergoglio (1936-2025), the 226th Catholic Pope, who served as Pope for 12 years, died on Easter Sunday. But I am saddened, not because he died, but because without a shred of doubt he went to Hell to burn forever in fire and brimstone. John 3:3, “Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

There is not a more diabolical and fraudulent religion on earth than that of Roman Catholicism. Tragically, over one billion lost souls are trusting in the counterfeit plan of salvation taught by the Vatican. Case in point, here is a disturbing article from 2018 titled, “Pope Francis tells us how to get to heaven.” Here is an excerpt from the poisonous article:

The pope writes that Jesus taught us what it means to be holy when he preached the Beatitudes found in Matthew’s Gospel (Mt 5:3-11). The same Gospel tells us that to get to heaven, we should feed the sick, give drink to the thirsty, welcome the stranger, clothe the naked, care for the sick and visit the prisoner (Mt 25:31-46). [emphasis added]

SOURCE: The Criterion, “Pope Francis tells us how to get to heaven”

What liars! Jesus tells the true account of a group of people who died and were standing before Him in judgment. They boasted of having done “many wonderful works” in Jesus' name, but Christ denied knowing them as His sheep (Matthew 7:21-23). Jesus plainly told them that they had failed to do the will of the Father, which according to John 6:40 is to BELIEVE ON JESUS CHRIST (cf. John 20:31; Galatians 3:26).

According to the Satanic tommyrot you just read from the archdiocese of Indianapolis in The Criterion, the way to Heaven is to live a holy life. But the inspired Holy Bible teaches something drastically different. According to God's Word, even our best works are grotesque  filth to God. Isaiah 64:6, “But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.” The only righteousness that I have as a human being is the imputed righteousness of God which is through faith alone in Jesus Christ. Philippians 3:9-10a, “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: That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection...” Salvation is of the LORD.

In 2013, Pope Francis told atheists around the world that they could still go to Heaven, even if they didn't believe in God, if they just sincerely followed their conscience. What saith the Scripture? Psalms 14:1, “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.” Proverbs 14:12, “There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.” Pope Francis couldn't have been more wrong!

It saddens me to know that Pope Francis is now burning in Hell forever. But you say, “Wait a minute Brother David, you don't know where the Pope went!” Yes, unfortunately I do, because the Bible clearly warns in Romans 3:20, “Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.” Pope Francis made it very clear that he was not trusting in Christ alone.

The False Christianity Of Vice President JD Vance

We are living in perilous times of woeful deception like never before in human civilization. A common deception is the fallacy that Roman Catholics are true Christians. Biblically, only those sinners who have been born again are Christians, that is, saved and on their way to Heaven (John 3:1-7). No one who follows the wicked false teachings of Catholicism is saved! The Catholic church is a prisonhouse of false religion!

It sickened me today to learn that U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance wickedly bid Godspeed to the ungodly Pope on his death bed. Albeit, when I learned that Vance himself is a hellbound Catholic, then I mourned for both of them. JD Vance met with Pope Francis the day before he died and made the following statements after he died:

“I just learned of the passing of Pope Francis. My heart goes out to the millions of Christians all over the world who loved him,” Vance wrote in a statement on X early Monday.

“I was happy to see him yesterday, though he was obviously very ill. But I’ll always remember him for the below homily he gave in the very early days of COVID. It was really quite beautiful.”

“May God rest his soul,” he concluded.

SOURCE: Independent, “JD Vance pays tribute to Pope Francis and recalls meeting with pontiff hours before death”

2nd John 1:11, “For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.”

I have a few important things to say about JD Vance. First, although he claims to be a Christian, he is not! As I just mentioned, Mr. Vance is a hellbound unsaved Catholic! There is no salvation in the religious cult of Roman Catholicism. Sacramental Salvation is of the Devil. Keeping the Seven Sacraments of the Catholic religion cannot produce the required new birth to enter into the Kingdom of God.

I have serious doubts about President Trump's claim to be a Christian. Sure, he speaks about Jesus' death, burial and resurrection (the Gospel), but he considers JD Vance a Christian too! Mr. Trump hired Paula White, who is a damnable false prophet, as spiritual advisor to the White House. I smell a dead rat! In a 2024 interview, Donald Trump revealed that he is trusting in being “good” to get to Heaven, which is a counterfeit plan of salvation.

Today should be a day of sadness and mourning over the eternal damnation of Pope Francis.

My Thoughts Regarding The Florida School Shooting

Isaiah 1:4-5, “Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the LORD, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, they are gone away backward. Why should ye be stricken any more? ye will revolt more and more: the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint.”

I just heard about the Florida shooting. The daily news is so negative that I try not to follow it too closely, but I do think it is important to stay informed to some degree. I usually watch Lester Holt weeknights on NBC.

I agree with President Trump, who said yesterday that guns don't kill people, people kill people. In this particular case in Florida (where a 20 year old young man took his mother's service gun and murdered two fellow students), it is the irresponsible mother's fault, who works as a deputy sheriff. She should have had her service gun locked up in a secure gun safe. Since we never know what is going through someone else's mind, we must take precautions. Always be on guard.

Guns aren't the problem. Our morally deteriorating culture is the problem! Kids and teens are brats today. I have been bullied at most jobs I have worked throughout my life. I was horribly bullied in school as a kid. I was beat up walking home from grade school, had my neck burned with a hot pen in 5th grade by a punk student, got beat up in the school coat room in 3rd grade, was pushed down in an alley by a gang on the way to the dentist as a teen, et cetera. It doesn't surprise me why kids, teens and adults snap. I was bullied even worse by wicked adults in the secular workplace. The kids do like their wicked parents. People are wicked sinners!

Our wicked government removed prayer and Bible reading from all public (government) schools, since 1962, which has been the nails in our coffin as a country. It's not hard to figure out why American society is a disaster today. Our culture's music videos and movies exalt sexual immorality and all manner of filth and evil. We've allowed the Devil to destroy us with our freedom. The Bible says in Daniel that "by peace" the Antichrist "shall destroy many." That is, Satan will destroy us with the very liberty that made us free. Humanity is doomed because of sin. Mankind is inherently evil, even though I think most people are good in character (as far as sinners go). Most people don't want to hurt their neighbours, but we all have the potential to commit horrible sins.

From what I have seen in the news, most of the active shooter situations involve youth today. Children need Jesus! Our government (federal and state) always seem to have money for the wrong things, but don't invest in our youth to keep them off the streets. Our foolish government spent a staggering $6,200,000,000,000 just on the illegal Iraqi war (2003-2011) that the U.S. congress never approved. George W Bush is an evil monstrous war criminal. His evil CIA father (who attended the Episcolapian church where Wiccan witches also attend) is already burning in Hell forever. Truly, Satan is the god of this world (2nd Corinthians 4:4).

Pastor Lester Roloff (1914-1982) said it very well: "America was 'great' when she was good, and she was good when she had great churches." Those days are long gone! The television since the 1950's has replaced the local church in popularity. The vast majority of churches thriving in attendance today are apostate cults! Sadly, 99% of local churches are spiritually dead. Most churches are almost empty and only elderly people attend. Nearly all of our churches died a long time ago. Pastors are no longer Bible preachers. Hardly any pastors contend for the faith anymore. They just want an easy life, and to collect their undeserved paycheck. There is a wicked spirit of lull over our churches and nation today, so that no one really cares anymore about fearing and pleasing God.

Things will only wax much worse! Homelessness is just getting started across the country. The economy will get worse. The Federal Reserve since 1913 is a massive Ponzi Scheme which is destined to utterly fail. The only way to keep the scam going is to continue the reckless government's debt spending. I honestly think President Trump's efforts to knock down our nation's $36,000,000,000,000 in debt will only encourage the next Democrat President to spend four times more (trillions)! Jesus warned that a house divided cannot continue to stand. Brother Lester Roloff was right: "We're in insanity because of sin."

Thank you James for sharing your spiritual insights with me. The public shootings are truly heartbreaking. I was shocked to learn last year that on average there have been at least 600 mass shooting across the United States every year, for over the past 10 years. Morality cannot be legislated! There are already over one million existing guns laws, codes and regulations, which hasn't stopped the murders. And if our government eventually does (and I assure you that THEY WILL) ban guns and ammunition sales, young people will simply use the family car to murder their victims instead. Since October of 2022, Canada has banned the sale, purchase or trade of guns nationwide. That tyranny will ultimate come to the United States. We will be in even more big trouble when only the government jackboot thugs have guns and the public doesn't. Look what happened in 1936 Spain when the people were forced to surrender their guns.

That scenario COULD happen again in America! The people found themselves helpless, unarmed. I refuse to own a gun because I don't trust myself with one, but I am a strong advocate for the Second Amendment right to arm bears, I mean bear arms. Right now we are experiencing the illusion of freedom in America. Tyranny is rarely seen except by those oppressed by it. Our elderly people in the United States, who have to take bus trips to Canada to purchase affordable prescription drugs, certainly don't feel "free." Pain sufferers like myself, who cannot obtain anything more than the least amount of pain drugs, certainly don't feel like we live in a "free" society.

Ask the 65,000,000 murdered American babies in the womb since 1973 if they feel like this is a "free" country. Or ask the afflicted man that I used to work with in Chicago, whose wife commit adultery and got pregnant by another man, and then the ungodly judge forced the woman's betrayed husband to pay child support for the bastard child, if he feels like this is a "free" country. Since 2017 Google has wickedly censored 95% of my web traffic for Jesus-is-Savior.com, reducing my annual total web visitors from 17 million in 2017 down to 1 million in 2024. I sure don't feel like I am living in a "free" country.

I Took This Selfie Last Week With A New Friend I Made In My Backyard

Only Cults Teach You Must Ask God To Forgive Your Sins

I just blocked out a troublemaker on Facebook for his hatred and harassment. He got upset with me today for sharing a sermon excerpt by Pastor Max D. Younce (1935-2023), which tells THE TRUTH that only cults teach you must "ask" God to forgive your sins to be saved. Here are two exact asinine quotes that the troublemaker made today in a message to me (the typos are his)...

• “you might deceive old ifb people, but not new ifb”
• “im not gonna let you criticize pastor anderson nor the sinners prayer.”

First, I never mentioned Pastor Steven Anderson in my post, I simply uploaded an excerpt from Dr. Max Younce. I love and promote Brother Anderson. Although I do not agree with him on several issues, I am his ministry friend and thank God for him.

Second, I dread the so-called “Sinner's Prayer.” For several years after I got saved at age 13 in 1980, I needlessly experienced inexplicable fear and worry in tears, not knowing if I was really saved or going to Hell, all because ignorant Baptist preachers and false prophets like Jack Chick had wickedly lied to me time and time again, by foolishly saying that you have to pray a Sinner's Prayer to get to Heaven. I was stuck in a no win situation in a pit of worry and despair, unable to settle my salvation. I prayed several dozen times, asking God to save me again and again, but I still didn't have the sweet blessed assurance of salvation that I so desperately desired and needed.

It wasn't until decades later that I finally learned from Pastor Max Younce that I didn't need to pray at all to be saved, BELIEVING was enough!!! That settled it all in my soul and I haven't worried for one second since. Finally, I had the sweet blessed assurance that my name is written in the Lamb's Book of Life in Heaven. There is no greater joy, peace and reason to live each day, than to KNOW beyond any shadow of a doubt that you are 100% saved certain. Thank you Jesus!!!

Also, by unwisely leading a lost sinner to pray a Sinner's Prayer, you are running the risk of confusing them. You cannot show me one place in the Bible where a Christian led someone to Christ by saying, “Repeat the following words after me...” That is superstitious tommyrot, balderdash, poppycock, flapdoodle, claptrap and blahblah nonsense. We need to get back to preaching THE WORD OF GOD!!! There are too many hands in the pot nowadays. It seems like every church has their own homemade recipe for salvation. The Apostle Paul sternly warned in Galatians 1:6-9 that there has always been only ONE GOSPEL.

Beware of religious nuts like Peter S. Ruckman, Robert Breaker, Samuel C. Gipp, William P. Grady and other heretics who FALSELY teach that people were saved by WORKS in the Old Testament under the law of Moses. They were saved by grace through faith in Christ, just like we still are today (Acts 10:43).

Therefore, you can now understand why I frown heavily upon the Sinner's Prayer, and so should you dear friend. I stopped using the Sinner's Prayer 15 years ago. I am not overly critical of pastors who choose to still use the Sinner's Prayer, but for the aforementioned reasons I don't like it. At what point in Baptist church history did we go astray to change BELIEVING to PRAYING to be saved?

And also let me kindly say that I believe lost sinners who pray a Sinner's Prayer do get saved, just so long as they understand that faith is what saves them, and not saying a prayer. It is perfectly fine to accompany one's faith with a prayer, or even ask God to forgive your sins, but these things are not required to be saved. The great danger comes when the New IFB mandate saying a prayer and asking God for forgiveness of sins to be saved, which at a minimum confuses people, and at worst hinders them from seeing the true Gospel. Faith is the only righteous thing that I can do.

Kindly said, the man who is upset with me and Pastor Younce is a darn fool, because he is following the perverse teachings of a man (Pastor Steven Anderson) instead of basing what he believes on the inspired Word of God. 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.” I love Brother Anderson, but he is very wrong to lead the New IFB (who are not independent at all because they all follow his doctrine) to believe that you must PRAY and ASK to be saved.

Third, I am not going to allow anyone to belittle me for preaching what I sincerely believe to be the truth. I had to block out the same troublemaker last year because of his horrible bullying, hateful spirit and arrogance. In an act of kindness, I unblocked everyone on Facebook on January 1st, 2025.

Unfortunately, people like him never learn. In his own world view, Pastor Steven Anderson can do no wrong and whatever he says is truth. We know that no preacher is always 100% right. Even though I humbly disagree with Pastor Anderson on several doctrinal points, I still love, respect and promote his soulwinning ministry. You don't have to agree with me on everything to be my friend.

I kindly warned the troublemaker (he lives in Canada) that I will not allow him to harass and bully me because I don't agree with the New IFB that prayer is required to be saved. The Bible plainly teaches that BELIEVING THE GOSPEL is enough to be saved (1st Corinthians 15:1-6). Anybody who insists that you must pray and ask God to forgive your sins to get to Heaven is a damned liar!!!

Jesus has already paid for everyone's sins with His precious blood 2,000 years ago on the cross of Calvary. Therefore, God is offering everyone forgiveness of sins and eternal life as a gift. All you need to do to obtain that gift is to receive it by faith. Simply take God at His word as recorded in the written Holy Bible. If you will simply believe the account, which God has recorded in His Word concerning Jesus Christ, you will be instantly and forever born again. It's that simple! We are the SINNERS; Jesus is the SAVIOR!

You do NOT need to pray, ask or confess to God to be saved. What saith the Scripture? 𝗝𝗼𝗵𝗻 𝟭𝟭:𝟮𝟱-𝟮𝟲, “𝗝𝗲𝘀𝘂𝘀 𝘀𝗮𝗶𝗱 𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗵𝗲𝗿, 𝗜 𝗮𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲: 𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲𝘁𝗵 𝗶𝗻 𝗺𝗲, 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝗮𝗱, 𝘆𝗲𝘁 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲: 𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗼𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝘁𝗵 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲𝘁𝗵 𝗶𝗻 𝗺𝗲 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗻𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗱𝗶𝗲. 𝗕𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀?” Believe, believe, believe!!! That is the only way you can be saved, to BELIEVE ON THE LORD JESUS CHRIST!

Shame on the troublemaker for his bullying. The New IFB have some lunatics in their cult who vehemently bully anybody who disagrees with them. Pastor Jonathan Shelley in Texas preached an entire sermon against me over this very matter of not having to pray to be saved. Shame on him! Pastor Shelley thinks you must pray and ask to have your sins forgiven to be saved. Sadly he is WRONG!

I am going to go to seed in this matter until the good Lord takes me home to Heaven. You DON'T have to pray, ask or confess in order to be saved, you simply need to BELIEVE that Jesus did it all for you through Calvary's cross. The price has already been paid. That 𝒑𝙧𝒊𝙘𝒆 was the precious blood of Jesus (1st Peter 1:18-19). The 𝒑𝙡𝒂𝙘𝒆 where it was paid is on the Mercy Seat in the heavenly Holy Place (Hebrews 9:12, 24; 12:24). It was 2,000 years ago that the risen and ascended Savior sprinkled His actual liquid blood upon the Mercy Seat in Heaven, in the presence of God the Father on our behalf; the price was forever paid. Anyone who places their trust in Christ is saved!!! You don't have to “ask” God to forgive your sins, because God is already offering you eternal life freely, if you will simply accept it from Him. Only religious cults teach that you must “ask” God to forgive your sins.

The inspired King James Bible exposes the New IFB as liars in this important matter. I didn't bring up the New IFB today, one of their zealous lunatic cult followers did. There are all types of cults. The New IFB are all members of Steven Anderson's cult. That is what it is. By definition, even Christianity could be considered a cult. The dictionary defines "cult" as: "Adherents of an exclusive system of religious beliefs and practices." The New IFB are very exclusive, all adhering to the personal beliefs of one man since 2006, Steven Anderson. I love the New IFB, but some of their lunatic followers are attacking me for disagreeing with their heresy that you cannot go to Heaven without asking to have your sins forgiven and praying a Sinner's Prayer.

Having said all that, I am not saying that people who accompany their faith with a prayer are not saved, just so long as they understand that BELIEVING (trusting) on Christ is what saves them, and not trusting in a prayer or repeating some religious words. I heard a fool say on a Christian radio station several years ago that she was saved at age 3 when she prayed, “The Jesus' prayer.” It was so obvious that she was mocking and blaspheming the Word of God, but this was said on a popular Christian radio station. She is obviously a child of the Devil. And even if she was serious, NO ONE has ever been born again by praying some stupid prayer.

Nowhere in the inspired Holy Bible, do we find a Christian leading someone to Christ by asking them to: “repeat the following words after me.” Such nonsense is superstitious rubbish. I am very much against the FALSE DOCTRINE that you cannot be saved without praying, calling or asking God to do so. Jesus has already paid in full our debt of sin. 1st John 2:2, “And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.” In view of this passage of Scripture, I don't see how anyone could accept the Calvinist lie of Limited Atonement (i.e., the heresy that Jesus only died for the saints). Clearly, this passage teaches that Jesus died for the whole world, and not just for “our sins.”

Much needless confusion, worry and pain has been caused by requiring lost sinners to pray an unbiblical Sinner's Prayer to get to Heaven. In God's simple plan of salvation, He only requires that you (by faith) receive Christ's sacrifice on the cross as full-payment for your sins, believing that Jesus was buried, but then miraculously resurrected from the dead three days later. This is the only “Gospel” according to 1st Corinthians 15:1-6.

It is not wrong to ask God to forgive your sins to be saved, nor to accompany your faith with a prayer, but these things are NOT necessary nor required to get to Heaven. The big problem I have is with today's corrupt preachers who wickedly teach that you cannot get to Heaven unless you pray, call or ask, when the inspired Holy Bible plainly teaches that all you need to do is BELIEVE ON THE LORD JESUS CHRIST (John 3:16, 6:28-29, 40; John 11:25-26; Acts 16:30-31; Galatians 3:26; 1st Thessalonians 4:14).

Any so-called “church” that perverts, complicates or confuses the simplicity that is in Christ is a cult. Sadly, most of our Baptist churches and religious colleges today have become cults, because they have strayed away from the true Gospel of free grace. Most of them now teach the Devil's lie of Lordship Salvation or Misunderstood Repentance. Others distort God's simple plan of salvation by foolishly teaching that you must pray, call or ask to be saved. May we all contend for the faith by making sure to expose those who tamper with the Gospel (Jude 1:3).

Dr. Bob Jones Sr. (1883-1968) said these wise words to set the matter straight about the Sinner's Prayer regarding the new birth...

“'Pray to be saved. Ask the Lord to save you.' This is what I heard a minister say to a convicted sinner who came forward for prayer at the close of an evangelistic service. Nowhere in the Bible are men told to pray to be saved. There are examples where men did pray and were saved. Men are told to repent, to believe, to obey the Gospel, but the Bible never says to pray for salvation. It does say that whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved, but nowhere does the Bible command men to pray to be saved. I think I know why, God, who made the human heart, knew that it was not necessary to tell convicted sinners to pray. If a sinner can see Jesus Christ on the cross, it is as natural for him to pray as it is for birds to sing or flowers to bloom. 'Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved.'” —Dr. Bob Jones Sr., “Comments On Here And Hereafter,” chapter: Prayer And Praise, page 163; Bob Jones University Press, Inc., © 1942

Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001) also set this matter straight regarding the Sinner's Prayer...

Dr. Jack Hyles on Sinners' Prayer for Salvation

Most Preachers Are Wrong On The Gospel

Acts 15:1 and 24, “And certain men which came down from Judaea taught the brethren, and said, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved. ...Forasmuch as we have heard, that certain which went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls, saying, Ye must be circumcised, and keep the law: to whom we gave no such commandment...”

I love this passage of inspired Scripture from the King James Bible. A group of unsaved false prophets came to Jerusalem preaching another gospel, saying that you must keep the law (i.e., turn from your sins) to be saved. As a result of this false teaching, quite a controversy was stirred in Jerusalem. The matter was brought to the attention of Jesus' disciples. The Apostle James clears up the matter in Acts 15:24 by confirming that the apostles DID NOT preach such damnable heresy!

I recently found this meme below, which is excellent. Truly a picture is worth a thousand words. The meme emphasis the many alterations and perversions which exist today concerning God's simple of salvation. ...

Thankfully, we do not have to wonder or speculate what the true Gospel (which means “Good News”) is because the inspired Word of God plainly tells us...

1st Corinthians 15:1-6, “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.”

The Gospel is comprised of THREE things:

1. Jesus DIED on a cross to pay for our sins
2. Jesus was BURIED
3. Jesus bodily RESURRECTED from the dead three days later

These are the FACTS which you must place your trust (faith, reliance) in to be saved. Simply take God at His Word as recorded in the inspired Holy Bible, believing the record which God has given to humanity concerning His only begotten Son, Jesus, the Christ. John 20:31, “But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.” The purpose for which God authored the Book of John is to convince you and me, the readers, that Jesus came to earth as God in the flesh, the only biological (begotten) Son of almighty God; and to convince us that Jesus is the Christ, the promised Messiah who would take away the sins of the world. John 1:29, “The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.”

It Is Easy, Simple And Free To Get To Heaven

God intentionally made his plan of salvation very simple because there are a lot of educible slow, uneducated and mentally challenged people in the world. I say that kindly, but realistically. Some people have permanent brain damage from a chronic childhood disease or a traumatic injury. The dear Lord wanted to make it super easy to get to Heaven. Christ paid for our ticket to Heaven in full with His precious blood (1st Peter 1:18-19). Jesus has already paid for everyone's sins! That is why it is very wrong for any preacher to teach lost sinners to pray and ask God to forgive their sins! You don't need to “ask” God to save your sins, because Jesus has already paid your debt of sin on the cross 2,000 years ago. John 6:47, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.” To go to Heaven, all you need to do is simply BELIEVE that Jesus has already done it all for you!

Bible Repentance Doesn't Mean To Turn From Sin

Jonah 3:10 says, “And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way. Turning from their evil way was WORKS.” Turning from sin is WORKS! That is a good work, but it is still a self-righteous work. And Titus 3:5 says, “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.” According to Jonah 3:10, turning from sin is a work.

If you tell a lost person that they must “turn from sin” (or be willing to turn from sin) to be saved, you are preaching a WORKS-BASED PLAN OF SALVATION. A lost person can turn from sin and still go to Hell as a reformed, religious person. Satan's greatest weapon is to con people into living the Christian life without ever being born again. That is tragically what Roman Catholics, Mormons, Jehovah's Witnesses, Churches of Christ, Lutherans, Seventh-Day Adventists and other religious cults are all doing—living the Christian life without having ever been BORN AGAIN. Jesus said in no uncertain terms in John 3:3b, “Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

I thank and praise our good God for the small handful of faithful Bible preachers who teach Bible repentance correctly. One such godly man was Mark Cambron (1911-2000), who penned these helpful words...

Dr. Mark G. Cambron Has Repentance 100% Correct

Here is an excellent and needful writing by Dr. Mark G. Cambron (1911-2000) on the subject of REPENTANCE. Please read the following quote carefully, because Dr. Cambron is one of few theologian who gets it, that is, he understands the simplicity of the Gospel and that repentance does not mean turning from sin as proponents of Lordship Salvation foolishly teach...

Repentance is necessary for salvation.

The Greek word for repent is metanoeo, which, translated into English is: to change ones mind. It does not mean to turn from sin. That would add works to salvation.

Repentance for salvation means a change of mind from men's ideas of salvation and religion, to an acceptance of Gods only way of salvation.

This results in a completely new creation, not a reformation of the old. The old nature remains as evil as ever after salvation and has not been reformed . . . The old nature can now be controlled by the indwelling power of the Holy Spirit.

God guarantees salvation. This is His gift to us.
God guarantees reward and fruit to the obedient son.
God guarantees chastening and loss of rewards to the disobedient son.

God does not cast out disobedient children, but in some cases, does take them home. He does not permit His children to live as they please without His discipline and guidance.

Many teach repentance for salvation incorrectly, by including some form of human effort or righteousness, such as willingness to turn from sin, or turning from sin. This is heresy and has confused many people. It adds works to salvation and causes many to not understand Gods great gift. It is probation, not salvation. It is completely unscriptural. It is Galatianism and a counterfeit of the gospel.

It is a tragedy that many Christians live shallow Christian lives. The Cambron Institute is dedicated to the task of training Christian men and women in the importance of total dedication and making Jesus the Lord of their lives not to be saved but because they are saved.

Shallow Christianity cannot be cured by adding works to salvation.

Salvation is not the result of what we do, but is by receiving what God has done for us. Acts 13:38, 39; Acts 20:20: Gal. 1:8,9; Gal. 2:4; Gal. 2:21; Gal. 3:1.3; Gal. 5:1-4; Eph. 2:8-10; II Cor. 5:21;John 3:16-18; Phil. 3:9; Titus 3:5-8:11 Cor. 11:13-1 5.

I’m really sick and tired of people corrupting the Gospel of Christ and God’s plan of salvation. Lordship Salvation is a LIE STRAIGHT FROM HELL. I’m all for turning from sin in Christ's strength as a Christian, but turning from sin is NOT what it means to repent to be saved. Matthew 27:3 tells us that Judas Iscariot repented of his sins, but sadly Judas died in his sins and went to Hell forever. Judas never changed his mind (which is what true repentance means) to admit that he was a guilty sinner, and that Jesus is the only Savior.

I’m sick and I’m tired of Lordship Salvation, Wrong Repentance, Baptismal Regeneration, Sacramental Salvation and ALL FORMS of FALSE GOSPELS. People are horrifyingly headed to Hell to burn in fire and brimstone forever. WAKE UP dear reader! False prophets must stop corrupting the Gospel. The old adage is very true: If the shoe fits, wear it!

God loves you and I do too dear friend. I have never received a penny for all my 50,000 hours plus of hard work day and night on my website and blog ministry since 2002 when I began by God's grace. It has been my joy and privilege to live for OTHERS as I serve my blessed God, King, Lord and precious Savior, Jesus. Jesus is precious!!! Ephesians 5:16, “Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.”

Why Secular Psychology Cannot Help You

Psalms 1:1-3, “Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.  And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.”

Secular psychologists are all false prophets! They offer no hope to their patients. Whereas the inspired Word of God teaches that faith in Jesus Christ is the ONLY source of true hope for humanity, secular psychology will NEVER mention the name of Jesus as the source of hope and healing.

1st Peter 1:3-5, “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.”

When a secular psychologist fails to tell their clients about Jesus, how can they offer anyone hope? 1st Corinthians 15:19-20, “If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable. But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.” Our text passage of Scripture from a Psalms 1:1-3 warns against walking in the COUNSEL of the ungodly. This is why you should never seek counsel from a secular psychology.

Now, if you have a mental health problem that is beyond the realm of biblical counseling, then you might need medication (drugs) to cope with your affliction. So, you may need help from a licensed psychiatrist who can legally prescribe drugs (a psychologist cannot prescribe drugs). I heard my favorite preacher, Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001), say in a sermon that some people do need help from a psychiatrist. I fully agree. There are some crazy people in this world who need help that is beyond the capabilities of the local New Testament church. Albeit, having said that, I firmly believe that at least 95% of people who go to a psychiatrist don't need to. Their problem is sin. There problem is rebellion against the God of the inspired King James Bible. My long time ministry friend, Pastor Max Younce (1935-2023), preached a helpful sermon on this very topic...

Pastor Max D. Younce Human Wisdom Verses Divine Wisdom 1 of 2

The heathen world (including secular psychology) doesn't recognize sin as the core culprit of humanity's problems and failures. Secular psychologists won't ever tell you the truth that your mental problems are likely caused by your unwillingness to receive Jesus Christ as your personal savior, and that living in rebellion against the inspired Holy Bible will ruin your life. Psalms 9:17, “The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.” A non-Christian counselor forgets God. He or she legally is not even allowed to counsel you on the basis of Scriptural teachings. If they did, they could lose their professional license as a psychologist, and risk rejection and scorn from heathen peers.

The Holy Bible teaches that in many cases God wants us to suffer. Yes, you read right (1st Peter 1:7-9). Suffering helps to conform us more into the image of Christ. The Apostle Paul teaches us as believers to rejoice in our afflictions, health problems and hardships, because when we are weak we are strong in Christ (2nd Corinthians 12:9-10). This is the exact opposite of what the foolish world teaches! The world teaches the foolish idea popularize by Charles Darwin in the 19th century that only the strong survive. But the Bible teaches that only the weak survive in Christ. God will use a proud Christian (James 4:6). Secular psychology won't tell you the truth that suffering is meaningful and even necessary for Christian growth.

Whereas the heathen world tells us to believe in our self, the inspired Holy Bible commands us instead to trust in God (Mark 11:22). Secular psychology won't tell you the importance of forgiving others on the basis that God forgives those who trust in His only begotten Son (Ephesians 4:32). Since all my sins have been forgiven by faith alone in Jesus Christ, I am commanded by God to forgive others. To refuse to forgive those people who have hurt us in the past may cause mental depression, frustration and anger issues. The first step to forgive others is to let God forgive you, by trusting Christ as your Savior. You will never be able to love others until you first allow God to love you (1st John 4:19).

1st Peter 2:2-3 tells us to “desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby: If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious.” A secular psychologist won't tell you this truth. Psychologists will often blame your parents, you, your spouse or other external factors in your life, but they won't tell you what the Bible says. Proverbs 14:27, “The fear of the LORD is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.” Only a fool tries to counsel someone how to live a happy life apart from faith in Jesus Christ.

I recently met a 52 year old woman who went to school in her youth to become a secular psychologist. She couldn't even carry on a normal conversation with me without speaking of God as merely the “energy” in the universe, and talking about maintaining proper “human frequencies” for good health and wellbeing. I discerned in less than a minute that she sadly has been sucked into the Devil's New Age movement. I shared the Gospel with her and offered a free hard copy of Michael P. Bowen's helpful book, “I Never Knew You.” Tragically, she rejected the book and said she wasn't interested in learning how to go to Heaven. One day in eternity she will rue the day that she turned down the Good News of Jesus Christ.

I have learned in life that secular psychology and New Age are often closely related. The problem is that the heathen world are attempting to solve their own dilemmas without the inspired Word of God. 2nd Timothy 3:7, “Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.” The inspired Word of God contains the answers to life's problems. Secular psychology fails to recognize the reality of sin, which is the core of man's miseries. In sharp contrast, the Holy Bible identifies the origin of sin in the Garden of Eden (Romans 5:12), and identifies the remedy for sin through faith in Jesus Christ (Romans 5:1).
