Pastor Jack Schaap's Betrayal Of God's Inspired Word

John 6:63, “It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.”

There is an ongoing raging debate in religious circles over what was inspired by God concerning the Holy Bible. There are three primary theories:
  1. THOUGHT INSPIRATION - Some say that God only inspired His thoughts (aka, Dynamic Theory). This includes most of the modern Bible translators, primarily the New International Version (NIV) committee. They deny that the actual Words of God are inspired. It is obvious with such horrible beliefs that you can literally manipulate the Bible to say anything.
  2. WORD INSPIRATION - Others, including myself and Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001), believe that the actual Words of God are inspired, and when they are accurately translated into another language; such as English, they continue to be inspired. I believe the King James Bible is 100% verbally (Word for Word), and plenary (the whole canon of 66 books) inspired by God, not merely man's best attempt.
  3. ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT ONLY INSPIRATION - And then there is a third group, which includes former disgraced Pastor Jack Schaap of the First Baptist Church of Hammond, who believe that God only inspired the original Hebrew, Chaldean and Greek Words. Adherents of this group claim that a translation cannot be inspired. They teach that the King James Bible is a great book, but not inspired, infallible, incorruptible or inerrant.
In 2018, by God's grace, I made this important documentary titled: “The Battle Of The Ages.” My goal in making this video was to gather all the information that I could for a couple months; anything in defense of the inspiration of the King James Bible; and then place it all into one video. I was able to gather enough information to make a 4:19 hour film. ...

The Battle Of The Ages

Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001) was the biggest champion of the inspiration of the 1611 authorized King James Bible. Dr. Hyles rightly said, “If you've seen one Westcott and Hort Bible you've seen 'em all.” That is, ALL of the Devil's modern Bible revisions share the SAME corruptions. Case in point...
Even a young child can clearly see that Satan's paws are all over the modern English Bible revisions. Pastor M.R. DeHaan (1891-1965) said it well...
“Be on guard against any tampering with the Word, whether disguised as a search for truth, or a scholarly attempt at apparently hidden meanings; and beware of the confusion created by the senseless rash of new versions, translations, editions, and improvements upon the tried and tested Bible of our fathers and grandfathers.” —Pastor M.R. DeHaan, 'THE TABERNACLE,' p. 101
One Book stands alone, the inspired KING JAMES BIBLE!

Dr. Jack Schaap Ruined the First Baptist Church of Hammond and Hyles-Anderson College

On a Wednesday evening (March 4th, 2009), Pastor Jack Schaap preached a disturbing sermon at the First Baptist Church of Hammond titled: “What Did God Preserve?” In this bizarre sermon he foolishly teaches that the Bible was not written for a lazy man. According to Dr. Schaap, you have to labor intensely to understand God's Word, and the only way to truly know the truth is to examine copies of original manuscripts in museums in England.

Pastor Schaap errantly teaches that God only inspired the original Hebrew, Chaldean and Greek Words, nothing else. He foolishly says that the King James Bible is a great book, but not without error and not inspired by God.

Pastor Schaap even went as far as to bizarrely say that starting in the fall of 2009 their schools would teach grade-schoolers Hebrew and Greek, and fly some of the kids to England to become linguist scholars, so that they could ensure the next generation would have the truth. Kindly said, I humbly think the guy lost his marbles!

Don't you dare tell me that a sweet dear grandma rocking on her front porch in a rocking-chair, with only a 5th grade education, cannot understand God's Word. God wouldn't leave us at the mercy of Hebrew and Greek scholars, most of whom cannot even agree with each other on the Bible, causing utter never-ending confusion (1st Corinthians 14:33).

Brother Schaap was my teacher for 4 years of Church Education at Hyles-Anderson College. When he preached, he reminded me of what George Whitfield (1714-1770) might have sounded like, who was dubbed: “The Preacher With A Golden Voice. George Whitefield was known for his powerful oratory and ability to command large audiences, often preaching to thousands without amplification. Jack Schaap was commanding with his voice when he preached. It broke my heart to learn that he wickedly changed his father-in-law's position on the King James Bible at First Baptist Church, which Bible inspiration Brother Hyles said he had dedicated the rest of his life to defending and champion in 1996. So sad, so sad.

Thank God for Pastor David Baker (1967-2024)

Brother Baker and I were ministry friends. After Pastor Jack Schaap in 2009 wickedly CHANGED the church's long held doctrinal position that the King James Bible is inspired, Dr. Baker created a needful website in defense of God's inspired Word called “HACalumni dot com (the website no longer exists). Thankfully, a few years ago I downloaded his entire ministry website to preserve it for future generations, in case the information vanished, and I am so glad that I planned ahead. I have all of Brother Baker's files.

Tragically, the Bible college that I attended for 8 years and graduated from with honors on the Dean's List in 1993, no longer exists today. It disgusts me that many people at Hyles-Anderson College and the First Baptist Church of Hammond blindly sided with Pastor Jack Schaap. This is sinful human nature to automatically take sides with one's corrupt leaders. Truly the love of money (a job or career) is the root of all evil. I have seen this disturbing trend all my adult life in churches, and it is a sore evil. The heathen world does the same thing. Bad cops protect bad cops. Bad lawyers protect bad lawyers. Bad church staff members protect bad pastors!

Inspiration: Temporal Or Eternal
(Dr. James Sightler, 1937-2019)

Pastor Baker wasn't a perfect man, just as neither are you or myself friend. We are all wicked sinners (Romans 3:10-23; Romans 7:14-25). There but for the grace of God, go I and you. I miss Brother Baker and his Fundamental Baptist Podcast. He did so much to help others for Jesus Christ. For 28 years he worked to help inmates in a prison ministry. Brother Baker had Christ's heart to help the bereaved, downcast and broken sinners of life.

As a young man who still hadn't found the Lord Jesus Christ, David Baker shares his testimony that he was very worldly and had a rough life, getting drunk and living in sin. It is a miracle that Brother Baker ever became a pastor after coming out of such a difficult wicked past. I THANK GOD for my ministry friend, Brother David Baker!!!

We are living in “perilous times” today when preachers are moving targets for haters, critics and the Devil's minions (2nd Timothy 3:1-7). Satan is “the accuser of the brethren” (Revelation 12:10b). As you can imagine, as a fundamentalist Bible preacher I receive my share of hate mail from wicked sinners. It's part of being a Bible preacher! It is Jesus whom they really hate, not me (John 7:7). When you are a Christian, the whole world is waiting for you to fall. Multiply that times ten for a fundamentalist Bible preacher!

Bible preachers are on the frontlines of the battle between good and evil today! I don't see hateful ungodly slanderers attacking company CEOs for the sins and crimes committed by their employees and employees families; Yet, the Devil's crowd blame a pastor for everything bad that anyone who has ever been connected to him in any way does. What hypocrisy!

The inspired Holy Bible sternly warns in Matthew 7:2, “For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.” Those wicked haters today who overturn every rock, examining every nook and cranny of a man's life, to scrutinize and destroy a preacher's name and testimony will absolutely be subjected to the exact SAME scrutiny by our omniscient and omnipotent God. Woe unto the wicked!

I am so grateful to Pastor Baker for making his HACalumni ministry website, “that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints” (Jude 1:3). I am so glad that I downloaded the website to preserve it. Dear reader, if you think this matter of King James Bible inspiration is a side issue or not worth dividing over, you are a darn fool who is not right with God. If you're not upset, you're not paying attention!!!

Pastor Jack Schaap Lost His Mind

Respectfully said, Pastor Jack Schaap strayed so far away from biblical teaching that he became enamored with sex. To the man with a hammer in his hand everything starts looking like a nail sticking up. And to the man with a perverted mind everything starts looking like sex. For example: Dr. Schaap said that the Hebrew meaning of the word “stuck means sexual intercourse in Psalms 119:31, “I have stuck unto thy testimonies: O LORD, put me not to shame.” That is insane! Pastor Schaap likened the Lord's Supper to sexual intercourse. The guy lost his way somewhere along life's journey as a preacher. There but for the grace of God, go I. That is why for as long as I can remember my favorite Bible verse has been Proverbs 4:23, “Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.

Whereas Pastor Jack Hyles called the issue of King James Bible inspiration, “The Battle of The Ages in 1996, his incompetent son-in-law Pastor Schaap in a moment of demon-inspired insanity forever CHANGED the church's long held position on the King James Bible in 2009. But don't take my word for it, read for yourself what Pastor Hyles said about Jack Schaap...
“And brother, any time anybody ever casts any reflection upon the accuracy and the inspiration—verbal inspiration—of this Bible, I'll guarantee you he was inspired by the demons. I'll guarantee you! I don't care if he's got a 'reverend' in front of his name. I don't care if he has a clerical collar on. I don't care what school he's been to. He's of the Devil if he says that the Bible is not verbally inspired by God!” —Dr. Jack Hyles, “Satan's Masterpiece
Brother Hyles had plainly warned the church not to allow a half dozen men to change what the church believes and preaches, but sadly that is exactly what happened in 2009.

Pastor Jack Schaap foolishly said the inspiration of the King James Bible is a "side issue" which "espouses Catholic doctrine." That is simply false! Brother Schaap was my teacher at Hyles-Anderson College for 4 years of Church Education in my 8 years there (I had Dr. Ray Young for the other 4 years). Dr. Schaap also taught me Basic Homiletics, Advanced Homiletics and Revelation and I will always cherish those memories.

Pastor Jeffrey J. Fugate of the Clay Mills Baptist Church in Lexington, Kentucky, admirably wrote an open letter to Pastor Jack Schaap, reprimanding him for ruthlessly attacking the King James Bible and Dr. Gail Riplinger. I couldn't agree with Pastor Fugate any more! God bless Brother Fugate. By the way, his Commonwealth Baptist College teaches their students that the King James Bible is inspired by God. Commonwealth Baptist College today is the new Hyles-Anderson College, which Dr. Russell Anderson supported at the time of his graduation to Heaven in 2023. Dr. Anderson also attended their Clay Mills Baptist Church for the latter years of his life. I THANK GOD for these dear saints of God and their zeal to contend for the inspiration of the KING JAMES BIBLE!!!

Pastor Jeff Fugate Rebukes Dr. Jack Schaap

In his open letter to Pastor Schaap, Brother Fugate makes these 9 vital points:
  1. You say that the King James Bible had “more than 20,000 errors of spelling...” (p. 85).
    “Now, for you technical worriers out there, we understand that there were more than 20,000 errors of spelling and typesetting in the first edition of the 1611 King James Bible.” (Quoted from page 85 of Where Are We Going?)
           The errors of spelling and typesetting in the first edition of the 1611 King James Bible only number in the hundreds. The number 20,000 does not apply to errors of spelling and typesetting in the first edition of the King James Bible. Even King James Bible critics admit this (see David Norton, A Textual History of the King James Bible, Cambridge University Press, 2005, pp, 167-172). No scholar uses the word “errors” when referring to evolving changes to orthography and typography.
  2. You say that the King James killed Baptists (p. 53).
    “There are also those men we hold high with respect, and yet they murdered and tortured our Baptist forefathers. Four such men include Martin Luther, John Calvin, John Winthrop, and yes, even King James.” 
    (Quoted from page 53 of Where Are We Going?)
           This is not only another negative statement in an effort to seemingly demean King James, but it is also just downright not true! This is a lie that you have repeated from those that hate the King James Bible! This is the language of the enemy, not one that should be working to strengthen people's faith in God's perfect Bible!
  3. You mention that you have a pamphlet entitled, “Why Stand Against The King James Bible?” (p. 58)
    “I am a strong believer in the incorruptible seed (please see my booklet, “Why Stand Against The King James Bible?,” but practically I believe that I can win a soul to Christ without his seeing a Bible.” 
    (Quoted from page 58 of Where Are We Going?)
           I have never read nor seen this pamphlet, but what do you think anyone is supposed to think about you and your position on the King James Bible to even mention this? Do you have such a pamphlet? Do you teach in some way to stand against the King James Bible? Perhaps, I am totally misunderstanding this, and I hope that I am.
  4. You use the words “foolishness” and “barbarianism” to describe those who have defended the King James Bible (pp. 84, 86)
    “Because of the amount of foolishness being bantered about on this subject by careless Bible students, such as teaching that the King James Version is inspired...” 
    (Quoted from page 84 of Where Are We Going?)
    “...a multitude of younger pastors who had been looking to us for a role model and leadership but became confused and disenchanted with our near barbarianism.” (Quoted from page 86 of Where Are We Going?)
           Admittedly, there have been some that have had a wrong disposition in their defense of the King James Bible. There are also those that have taken a stand that goes to the right - such as saying that you must be saved by the King James Bible or you are a two-fold child of Hell. However, I will guarantee you that there is a greater need to take a stand for the King James Bible because of the enemies that are printing perverted Bibles than there is a need to stand against the very few that might go to the right in this matter!
           I would rather have someone that is too zealous for God's Word than someone who sows seeds of doubt about God's Word. I am not for wrong either way, but I would be quicker to criticize someone for being negative about God's Word than for being over-zealous! I will take men like the Apostle Peter, who was often over-zealous, than a Rick Warren.
  5. You say that it is deceptive and ignorant to teach that the King James Bible is inspired (“Inspiration and Preservation,” sermon, Sunday, November 23, 2008)
           “We become confused when that word inspired is used by these ignorant or deceptive teachers when applied to the KJV. I believe the King James Version was not given by inspiration. It was given by hard work and diligent labor, and I believe that work was providentially superintended by God and that the KJV is the preserved Word of God, as the Scriptures promised that God would preserve His Words.”
     (Quote taken from “Inspiration and Preservation,” sermon, Sunday, November 23, 2008)
           I believe that my King James Bible is inspired! If you think it is heretical to say that the King James Bible is inspired, then there are many heretics, including myself and the preachers I have already named in this letter. Can you say that men like Bob Jones Sr., Jack Hyles, and others were stating heresy when they said it was inspired?
           Inspiration is more than a method. Inspiration means that the Spirit of God is within the Words. The Bible says, “All scripture is given by inspiration”! It does not say “was” but “is”! You can call me “ignorant,” “naïve,” “rat in the woodpile,” “uneducated” or anything else you want, but I am in good company.
           You always use the word inspiration in the past tense (i.e., “was given”). That is not what the Bible says. The Bible says, “is given by inspiration.” In saying this, you cannot deny that you believe the Originals were inspired but not the Bible we have today. Inspiration means that my Bible is alive! It lost nothing in preservation—including inspiration!
           You try to say that people who believe the King James Bible is inspired believe in “double inspiration.” My answers is, “The Bible never died! It did not need to be inspired again! If it 'was' inspired, then it 'is' inspired.” John 6:63 proclaims “...the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit and they are life.” 1 Peter 1:23 heralds, “...the word of God, which liveth and abideth forever.”
           If you cannot say that your Bible is inspired (not because it was inspired again but because it never lost its inspiration) then you must conclude that only the Originals are inspired. Inspiration with preservation means nothing! Preservation without inspiration means nothing! This is not a matter of semantics. This is a matter of getting it right!
           I have never heard a Baptist preacher say they have a “word of knowledge” (p. 85). Never! Perhaps you have. I do not think this danger exists, but perhaps you have heard this. I have heard some Charismatics say this, but we do not listen to them anyway. They are off on every major Bible doctrine. They would not be right even if they had the Originals!
  6. You say “there are nearly two dozen various KJV editions in this country, with more than 100 variant readings.” (“Inspiration and Preservation,” sermon, Sunday, November 23, 2008)
    “At this present time, there are nearly two dozen various KJV editions in this country, with more than 100 variant readings.” 
    (Quote taken from “Inspiration and Preservation,” sermon, Sunday, November 23, 2008)
           I am aware that there are some differences of spelling in some and that we should use the correct one, but I would like to see the list of the “nearly two dozen” different King James Bibles. Once again, however, you cast clouds of doubts over the King James Bible. Why do you work so hard to do this?
  7. You say that God's Word does not need defending (p. 86)
    “...our near barbarianism. Cursing, swearing, name calling, and character assassination were all considered fair play to 'defend God's Word.'”
           But God's Word did not need defending; it needed obedience. If we had used the King James Version to build strong, soul-winning, thoroughly indoctrinated churches, our works would have been all the answer that was needed. (Quoted from page 86 of Where Are We Going?)
           What were preachers supposed to do when their people were going to book stores to buy Bibles and they were getting everything from the New International Version to the Reader's Digest Version? If preachers had not taken a firm stand for truth then we would be in an absolute mess today concerning the Bible!
           The Bible tells me to reprove, rebuke and exhort! We are to admonish and warn! We are to cry aloud against transgressions and sins!
           I do agree that we are not to defend and polish the weapon, but we are to use it. But make no mistake, we are also supposed to defend and contend for the faith!
  8. You quote Dr. John R. Rice as saying that we are to, “...Be a Fundamentalist, But Not a Nut” (p. 44)
    “While Dr. Rice clearly linked the term Fundamentalism to vigorously defending the faith and to aggressive soul winning, he also wrote a chapter entitled 'Be a Fundamentalist, But Not a Nut,' in which he commented on the King James-only position and describes preaching for Dr. Harry Ironside at the famous Moody Church of Chicago. ” 
    (Quoted from page 44 of Where Are We Going?)
           After you give this quote by Dr. Rice you give the example of being a King James only person. Why would you put something like that in a book if you do not want preachers to think that they are a nut if they believe the King James Bible is THE Word of God? Dr. Rice was the preacher who preached the sermon, 
    “Bobbed Hair, Bossy Wives and Women Preachers!” If I am a nut for taking a King James Bible only position - then I am a nut!
  9. You said to me on the telephone that you would not listen to a woman, such as Gail Riplinger, and learn theology from a woman.
    Gail Riplinger is a woman who holds an honorary doctorate degree from Hyles-Anderson College for her work on the KJB. You sell or did sell her books in the Hyles-Anderson College bookstore.
           You did send four of your men to meet with her for four hours to get her opinion about your teaching. I have a question here, “Had she agreed with your uninspired opinion of the King James Bible would you have quoted her?”
           In light of these things, it appears to me that you are moving to the left of the stand that we, as Fundamentalists, have taken for these many years. I am not interested in moving to the left in any way. I want to remain firm on my position on the King James Bible and our Baptist Heritage. I will remain firm in my position on music that is Christ honoring and godly. I will continue to take a stand against perverted Bible versions, rock music, immodest dress and ecumenicism. I believe that it is time to take a difficult but necessary stand against this movement to the left. I will not be speaking at Pastor's School 2009 nor attending.
           I will be praying that you will recognize that your influence is strong and that you will use it to strengthen that which remains rather than weaken it.
The Ungodly Betrayal of Dr. Russell Anderson (1931-2023)

Sadly, that is exactly what happened, so that since 2009 the church and Hyles-Anderson College no longer believe nor teach that the King James Bible is inspired by God. Dr. Russell Anderson was so upset about the matter that he wrote an open letter to Pastor Jack Schaap in 2009. And also an open letter to Pastor John Wilkerson in 2015 (in this open letter Dr. Anderson demands that they remove his name from Hyles-Anderson College, since they refused to return to their former position that the King James Bible is inspired and without error).

Both open letters from Brother Anderson earnestly pleaded that they return to their former doctrinal position that the King James Bible is verbally (Word for Word) and plenary (the whole canon of 66 books) inspired by God, or else he would withdraw his support of both the church and college, and due to their ungodly rejection of his wisdom Dr. Anderson did just that!

Read for yourself what Pastor Jack Hyles said about the King James Bible.

Again, Brother Hyles warned the church members not to let this happen. Dr. Hyles wisely told each church member to appoint them self as a guardian of one against heresy creeping into the church.

Dr. Hyles warned the church in 1998...
“The biggest split that has ever come will come in the next ten years, if not sooner, over the King James Bible - and it couldn't come soon enough for me. I'm tired of colleges and universities advertising that they 'use' the King James Bible - tell the whole story! Tell everyone that you do not believe that it is inspired word for word.” —Pastor Jack Hyles, from the Wednesday night Bible study titled, “Revelation to Illumination” (1998)
Shockingly, it was exactly 10 YEARS later that his son-in-law Pastor Schaap denied the inspiration of the King James Bible. Dr. Schaap in his retarded stupid ungodly booklet titled, "Where Are We Going?," which was passed out at Pastor's School to over 5,000 delegates disparagingly called King James Bible only believers: "Rats in the woodpile," "Barbarians" and "Ignorant hillbillies." You can read Dr. Schaap's own self defense of his fallacy in this clearly twisted response, in which he is trying to hide behind his alleged "angry" wife and the "angry" deacons for his incompetence of denying the inspiration of the King James Bible.

The First Baptist Church of Hammond are ingrates! Even even giving $8,000,000 of his hard earned money to the Lord to build their new church auditorium in Hammond, they threw Dr. Russell Anderson under the bus in 2009. Then they backed up over him, treating him like a demented crazy old man. Pastor Schaap shamefully rebuked him, when all Brother Anderson did was TELL THE TRUTH.

Dr. Hyles told everyone to guard against changes creeping into the church. If anyone has a RIGHT to speak up it was the co-founder of Hyles-Anderson College. SHAME on the First Baptist Church of Hammond. I had hoped that they would make things right with Dr. Anderson before he went to Heaven, but they ostracized and shunned him.

I have tremendous admiration for Dr. Anderson. He was willing to lose 40 years of built-up prestige, honor and his reputation as the co-founder of Hyles-Anderson College, all to side with the inspired King James Bible. Wow! Who does that! I love that dear man!!! I thank God for Brother Anderson's courageous stand, that cost him everything. The guy literally went from being the most admired man on campus at Hyles-Anderson College (next to Brother Hyles), to being mistreated and shunned as just a crazy old man, a nobody in the eyes of the First Baptist Church of Hammond. All thanks to that wicked jerk Pastor Jack Schaap!

Pastor Schaap's Assault Against Dr. Gail Riplinger

in his childish rage, Pastor Schaap horribly went on a personal vendetta to ruin Dr. Gail Riplinger's good name and reputation, calling her a “serial adulteress” and a “witch.” If that wasn't bad enough, Brother Schaap instructed all his men on staff who were preaching at various churches across the country to slander Miss Riplinger, and they wickedly did. All because as Dr. Jim Vineyard rightly said, “She grabbed him by the short hairs, and it hurt!”

Pastor Schaap had sent a few of his men on his personal jet down to North Carolina to try to get Miss Riplinger to back up his heresy that the King James Bible is not inspired. She refused and sided with the truth! When Jack Schaap found out, like Herod who tried to kill Jesus, Dr. Schaap lost his mind and decided to murder Gail Riplinger with his words.

In fact, Brother Hyles presented Miss Riplinger with an honorary doctorate degree at Pastor's School in 1993 for her impeccable work in defense of the King James Bible. She's not a perfect woman, but she is a humble servant of God. I was present, the year I graduated from Hyles-Anderson, when Miss Riplinger received her honorary doctorate degree from Pastor Hyles. If it weren't for Miss Riplinger, most Baptist pastors today would still be in the dark regarding the history of our beloved King James Bible. I THANK GOD for Miss Riplinger, who is now 78 years old. Our local New Testament churches own her a debt of gratitude.

Shame On Pastor John Wilkerson

Sadly, Pastor John Wilkerson admitted to the whole church during his candidacy (to be their new pastor) in January of 2013, that he is a pastor not a preacher. When asked how he viewed the Devil's modern perversions of the Bible, he shamefully said he thinks it is disrespectful to criticize the modern Bible versions, lest it do more harm than good. What he was really shamefully admitting is that he doesn't see the Devil's corrupt Bibles as a threat. 

What Dr. Wilkerson incompetently said is no different than if you saw a man urinating in the church's nursery milk bottles, but chose not to say anything, lest it offend new mothers and they quit coming to church. I assure you that a corrupt Bible version is infinitely more deadly than a weirdo peeing in milk bottles! Sadly, communist Cuba has more Horsesense today than most pastors. Tragically, if you visited First Baptist Church of Hammond today and looked through the pews on a Sunday, you'd find people using dozens of different Bible versions.

I suppose that Brother Hyles too was being “disrespectful” to people when he preached against the modern Bible revisions. “I come from the future, I bring bad news!”

A deaf man from Long Beach, California, contacted me on Facebook. He said that he's personal friends with Brother Wilkerson. (I stayed at Brother Wilkerson's home for a wedding in the early 1990s. Pastor Larry Chapel did the ceremony. We drove all the way from Chicago and back.) The deaf man told me that John Wilkerson still believes that the King James Bible is inspired, just like Brother Hyles did; but he said the church's leaders control his preaching and insist that he uphold the position Jack Schaap established in 2009. I wrote back and said, “So you mean Pastor Wilkerson is henpecked!” Yep, that is exactly what is going on in Hammond today. Grow a spine, man! God pity a henpecked pastor!
“The only inspired Words of God are in the King James Bible!” —Pastor Jack Hyles (an awesome quote from the needful 1994 sermon: “THE REAL BATTLE!”)
I love Brother Hyles and thank God for his zeal for THE TRUTH. Damn the torpedoes! ...
“Every word in this Bible is inspired by God almighty!” —Dr. Jack Hyles, “A Friend At Midnight

Sadly, the church members voted 94% to hire Dr. John Wilkerson as their new pastor. He took the position in February of 2013. Pastor Wilkerson has shamefully chosen to continue denying the inspiration of the King James Bible. Consequently, in this open letter to Pastor Wilkerson, Dr. Russell Anderson insisted that they remove his name from Hyles-Anderson College, but they refused. Evidentially they legally don't have to, but God will avenge Brother Anderson.

The King James Bible is Inspired by God

Dear reader, don't anyone dare tell me that we all have to become Greek, Chaldean and Hebrew scholars to understand the truth of God's Word. I reject Dr. Jack Schaap's ridiculous heresy that we must travel to some museum in England to find the truth. I find no fault in the inspired King James Bible!!!

I agree 100% with Pastor Jeffrey Fugate that inspiration means God's Words are living Words! By “inspired,” I simply means that when you read the King James Bible, God's Holy Spirit is speaking to you, not the best efforts by a bunch of sinful flawed translators in 1611. The King James is the ONLY Bible that doesn't attack Jesus' deity and the Godhead.
Hebrews 4:12, “For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
The word quick in Hebrews 4:12 means alive.” When a man writes a book, it is mere words; but the King James Bible are God's living words! Inspiration means that my King James Bible is alive! It lost nothing in preservation—including inspiration! The Bible never died! It did not need to be inspired again! If it 'was' inspired, then it 'is' inspired.” John 6:63b, “...the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.”

For Pastor Jack Schaap to teach that the King James Bible is a “great book, but not inspired by God is to say that it is a DEAD BOOK! Clearly, he believes that the King James has some power to it. So is it half alive? Is it 99% alive? Did you know that deadly rat poison is less than 1% actual poison? The rest is 99% wholesome food that a human could eat and not get sick.

So, don't know tell me that my inspired King James Bible is faulty, less than perfect, full of errors and unreliable. No Sir, God has honored His solemn promise in Psalms 12:6-7 to preserve His “pure words” for us today. English is the fasting growing language on the planet, spoken in more countries than any other dialect. God knows what He is doing!

The Betrayal of Pastor Jack Hyles

By God's grace I enrolled in 1985 and worked my way through Hyles-Anderson College. I finally graduated in 1993 with honors. THANK YOU GOD!!! Brother Hyles is my hero of the faith! Read for yourself what Dr. Hyles taught us students at Hyles-Anderson...
“Students of Hyles-Anderson College, do not give your loyalty to Hyles-Anderson College. You give your loyalty to what we stand for today, and if tomorrow we don't stand for it, you withdraw your loyalty—loyalty to principle, loyalty to right, loyalty to character, loyalty to integrity, loyalty to conviction, loyalty to truth; not loyalty to institutions.” —Dr. Jack Hyles, “Filled With All The Fulness Of God
And that is exactly what I have done—withdrawn my support of both the First Baptist Church of Hammond and Hyles-Anderson College. It is tragic that Dr. Wendell Evans, Dr. Ray Young and countless other staff members at the church and college didn't follow Dr. Hyles' godly advice. I love and admire those men, but they sold out, for which I disrespect them. Both of those men are still in charge of Hyles-Anderson College today, going along with the betrayal of God, the King James Bible, Pastor Hyles and Dr. Anderson. They are going along with the new heretical position, denying the inspiration of our beloved time-tested 1611 King James Bible, bidding Godspeed to apostasy. It breaks my heart.
“We believe this King James Bible is the ONLY Bible!” —Dr. Jack Hyles, “I Find No Fault In This Man!
Pastor Hyles taught us to always be willing to move toward the RIGHT, but never to the LEFT. There is a journey of learning the truth for every Christian. Each preacher hones his preaching skills and Bible knowledge as he grows over the years. In the 1960s (in such books as: “Let's Study The Revelation”), Brother Hyles actually corrected the King James Bible, but he woke up and never did it again.

After Evangelist John R. Rice (1895-1980) graduated to Heaven in 1980, Dr. Hyles started championing the inspiration of the King James Bible. Dr. Rice was 31 years older than Brother Hyles (1926-2001), and Brother Rice was not always easy to get along with from what I've heard Pastor Hyles say. I humbly think Pastor Hyles was careful not to offend his friend, with whom he shared approximately 2,000 pulpit engagement over 20 years across the world. 

Unfortunately, Dr. John R. Rice did NOT believe the King James Bible is inspired (but we need to keep in mind that he didn't have access to the internet and all the wealth of information we have today). The ultra-corrupt New International Version (NIV) that shocked and opened the eyes of multitudes of Baptist preachers wasn't published until 1984. Dr. Rice died in 1980. I've read that the whole of man's knowledge doubles every 8 years.

In the awesome 1994 book:, “Attorney David C. Gibbs, Jr. Interviews Dr. Jack Hyles,” Pastor Jack Hyles teaches that every generation must rediscover THE TRUTH for itself:
“Our big battle is over the Bible. For the next ten years it will be an increasingly big battle – I mean over the preservation of the King James text. I think there will be no difference in the next ten years than in the last ten years. Every generation is a part of the same performance – same play, just different actors. Every generation has to rediscover the truth for itself. Every generation has to rediscover the Bible for itself. Every generation has to become fundamental. You are not born a fundamentalist. You become a fundamentalist. Every generation has to come out of its previous generation.” SOURCE
That is why we have the New IFB today. That is, the New Independent Fundamental Baptist movement. They have come out of the dead Old IFB and are starting new churches everywhere that are aggressive about soul-winning, contending for the faith and preaching hard against the wickedness of our generation. I THANK GOD for the New IFB!

As I said earlier, I think if John R. Rice were still alive today, there'd be a good chance he would have moved to the RIGHT and joined the King James-only camp. And with Artificial Intelligence now taking off, man's knowledge will now exponentially skyrocket even further to unimaginable heights over the next 20 years. Literally, A.I. is inventing new breakthrough drugs, better architecture, incredible software, new surgical procedures, amazing robot designs, genetic designs, even new A.I. itself, et cetera. If the Lord tarries His return, and we are still here by God's grace to see the world in 2050 (I'll be 83 years old), I think our minds will be blown. Even now, I am absolutely intrigued and amazed. I really doubt if I'll live to see 83. My Mom went to Heaven at age 65, my Dad 75. I am now age 59. Where did the years go?

Is There Not A Cause?

1st Samuel 17:29, “And David said, What have I now done? Is there not a cause?

Perhaps you are wondering dear reader why I am seemingly beating a dead horse? I mean, it's been 17 years now since 2009 and Jack Schaap is history. No doubt the First Baptist Church of Hammond would love to see this matter die with Dr. Russell Anderson and Pastor David Baker. NOT A CHANCE!!! I downloaded Dr. Baker's HACalumni ministry website for a very good reason, which is to remain 'A VOICE' for the next generation and beyond.

I will go to seed in this matter of championing the inspiration of the King James Bible. Pastor Hyles (1926-2001) is gone. Pastor Baker (1967-2024) is gone. Dr. Anderson (1931-2023) is gone. My dear ministry friends are in Heaven, “and their works do follow them” (Revelation 14:13b). I am not the mighty eloquent preacher as was Pastor Jack Hyles. I am not the giant of the faith as was Dr. Russell Anderson. Brother Baker's voice has been silenced because he is gone from the earth. Ah, but what saith the Scripture? Ecclesiastes 9:4, “For to him that is joined to all the living there is hope: for a living dog is better than a dead lion.” I am just a dog, but I am alive, praise God. I AM A VOICE!!!

Thank you friend for reading my ministry blog. To God alone be all the praise, credit and glory.
“I would not give, knowingly, one thin dime to a college that does not believe in the verbal inspiration of this Book I hold tonight.” —Pastor Jack Hyles, “YOU MUST GO THROUGH ARABIA”; preached October 11, 1981

Why The Train Wrecked

Galatians 1:8, “But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.”

I have been reading through an old classic book from my book collection, authored in 1945 by Pastor Harry A. Ironside (1876-1951) titled, “Illustrations Of Bible Truth.” On page 62, there is an illustration called, “WHY THE TRAIN WRECKED,” in which Dr. Ironside states...
“It is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul” (Leviticus 17:11). 
Some years ago a fearful railroad wreck took a dreadful toll of life and limb in an eastern state. A train, loaded with young people returning home from school, was stalled on a suburban track because of what is known as a “hot-box.” The limited was soon due, but a flagman was sent back to warn the engineer in order to avert a read-end collision. Thinking all was well, the crowd laughed and chatted, while the train-hands worked on in fancied security. Suddenly the whistle of the limited was heard and and on came the heavy train and crashed into the local, with horrible effect.

The engineer of the limited saved his own life by jumping, and some days afterward was hailed into court to account for his part in the calamity. And now a curious discrepancy in his testimony occurred. He was asked, “Did you not see the flagman warning you to stop?”

He replied, “I saw him, but he waved a yellow flag, and I took it for granted all was well, and so went on, though slowing down.”

The flagman was called, “What flag did you wave?”

“A red flag, but he went by me like a shot.”

“Are you sure it was red?”

“Absolutely.”

Both insisted on the correctness of their testimony, and it was demonstrated that neither was color-blind. Finally the man was asked to produce the flag itself as evidence. After some delay he was able to do so, and then the mystery was explained. It had been red, but it had been exposed to the weather so long that all the red was bleached out, and it was but a dirty yellow!

Oh, the lives eternally wrecked by the yellow gospels of the day—the bloodless theories of unregenerate men that send their hearers to their doom instead of stopping them on their downward road!

Beware of John MacArthur's Bloodless Yellow Gospel

When I read Dr. Ironside warn about “the bloodless theories of unregenerate men,” I immediately thought about Dr. John MacArthur, who errantly claims that Jesus' blood is not sprinkled upon the heavenly Mercy Seat. According to Mr. MacArthur, Jesus' liquid blood flowed from His body into the ground at Calvary and stayed there! Mr. MacArthur, when called out for trodding under foot the blood of Jesus Christ as an unholy (common) thing, he deceitfully tried to save-face, by claiming that he has the utmost respect and faith in the blood of Christ, BUT only as it symbolically represents Jesus' death.


I tell you, kindly but confidently, that Mr. MacArthur is a wolf in sheep's clothing. The largest independent Baptist church on Guam, who employ several dozen Bob Jones graduates on their staff for their school and college, aggressively promote John MacArthur (and also Ray Comfort and Paul Washer). These three men are all unsaved reprobates, Calvinists, who add discipleship to sonship, perverting the simplicity that is in Christ (which is THE GOSPEL).

John MacArthur preaches “ANOTHER GOSPEL.” His own words condemn him. On Mr. MacArthur's website, he plainly refutes the truth that Jesus had God's blood flowing in His veins. And I quote: “One pastor said to me, 'He had the blood of God.' ... It's heretical to call the blood of Jesus Christ the blood of God.” Please read Acts 20:27-28, “For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God. Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.” The preceding Scripture passage plainly refers to God the Father, Who purchased the Church with HIS OWN BLOOD!

Why should this be so hard to accept? I mean, Jesus was born of a virgin woman (Matthew 1:23), who never had carnal knowledge with any man. So if Jesus did not have an earthly father, then He must have had God's blood in Him, since the Lord was miraculously conceived by the Holy Spirit! Yes, Mr. MacArthur is correct that Jesus was 100% man, but He was also 100% God! The reason why Jesus was able to live His earthly life without ever sinning even one time, is only because He was God in the flesh, and did NOT have an earthly Father. For John MacArthur to deny that Jesus had the blood of God the Father is effectively to deny Jesus' deity!!!

Respectfully, Pastor John MacArthur further states concerning the blood:
“There are others who say that there's something magical in the blood, something in the blood itself that washes sin away, when the Scripture teaches it was the death of Christ that atoned for sin and He shed His literal blood in sacrificial evidence of the pouring out of His life for sin, but there was nothing magic about that blood itself that could wash sin. And so this heresy has begun to develop, strangely enough.”

SOURCE: Dr. John MacArthur, 'The Blood Of Christ,' January 1987
Kindly, Mr. MacArthur is a theological liar. In the preceding quote he says that it is Christ's DEATH, and not His BLOOD, that redeems us from God's Law and sin. But read for yourself what saith the Scripture:
Hebrews 9:11-12, “But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building; Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.”
1st John 1:7, “But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.”
Revelation 1:5, “And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood.”

In Mr. MacArthur's commentary on the Bible, which I have my own hard copy of, he comments for Hebrews 9:12 that Jesus' blood is merely representative, and is a reference, to His blood. THAT IS A LIE OF SATAN which Robert B. Thieme, William E. Vine and Merrill F. Unger all succumbed to. If God meant death, He would have said “death.” But He didn't, the Holy Bible says “BY HIS OWN BLOOD” He has “obtained eternal redemption for us.”

In MacArthur's same article “The Blood Of Christ,” he says that on Calvary Jesus “SPILLED” His blood. My friend, Jesus did NOT “spill” His blood, which implies it was an accident. Jesus shed His blood on the cross and He sprinkled it on the Mercy Seat in Heaven.

In the article MacArthur says he has no idea how Christ's blood has anything to do with believer's today. ...
“You say, "Well how can the blood of Christ who died nineteen hundred years ago have anything to do with me today?" I'll be really honest with you, I don't have the faintest idea...”

SOURCE: Dr. John MacArthur, 'The Blood Of Christ,' January 1987
Unbelievable! Folks, Jesus' precious blood is sprinkled upon the heavenly Mercy Seat, in the presence of God the Father (Hebrews 9:12, 24; 12:24). When you and I sin, God the Father sees Christ's blood instead of our sins!!! THANK GOD FOR THE BLOOD!!!

I feel sorry for those young people who died in the needless train wreck, who had no idea that their lives were about to suddenly end! Our nation's churches are infected with the Lordship Salvation heresy. If your church uses, sells and /or supports the modern Alexandrian-based Bible versions, you are pulling on the same rope as the Devil. All of the modern Bible versions corrupt the biblical meaning of repentance. Instead, these evil perversions of God's Word claim that a person must change their heart and life to receive God's gift of eternal life. Beware of the modern Bible versions!!!

John MacArthur summarizes his article by saying:
Well I hope all those excerpts from my past sermons have provided clarification where I stand on this issue is where the Bible stands. In summary, I believe that to speak of Christ's blood as it was shed on the cross is the same as referring to His death. They aren't two separate elements, as some people are trying to teach. The Bible just doesn't teach that. If they were, we'd be saying, "Christ's physical blood had some mystical saving quality to it that had to be added to His death." Thus saying His death was insufficient and His blood was insufficient. The sacrificial death of Christ was and always will be that which atones for sin.

SOURCE: Dr. John MacArthur, 'The Blood Of Christ,' January 1987
That is so wrong! The work of the Old Testament high priest was a prototype, a shadow, of things to come, of Christ's work as our heavenly High Priest (Hebrews 4:14-16; Romans 8:34). If Christ's death on the cross were all that is required for our salvation, then He didn't need to raise up from the dead as our High Priest. Jesus died on the cross as our sacrificial Lamb, but He raised up as our heavenly High Priest!!! Jesus needed to be born of a virgin. He needed to live a perfect life without sin. He needed to die on the cross in our place. He needed to raise up from the dead. He needed to ascend into Heaven with the blood (John 20:17; Hebrews 9:24; 12:24).

Dr. MacArthur is slick with his words, trying to make the issue one of diminishing the importance of Christ's vicarious (substitutionary) death on the cross, but no one ever said Christ's blood was more important than His death. The truth is that everything was leading up to the blood being sprinkled upon the heavenly Mercy Seat. This necessitated Jesus' virgin birth, because if the Lord had a human father then He would have also had a sin-nature, which means that He couldn't have been the spotless sacrifice for the sins of the world. Jesus is the Lamb of God, Who taketh away the sins of the whole world (John 1:29).

What expertise do today's pastors have? What makes me right? How do you know what I am telling you is the truth? Well, you need to investigate for yourself! “SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES” as the Lord commanded us in John 5:39. In fact, Jesus said the very reason for searching the Scriptures is to “THINK YE HAVE ETERNAL LIFE.” John 5:39, “Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.” You cannot show me anything in the Holy Bible to support the heretical teachings of Calvinists, who ADD reformation (a changed life) to regeneration (being born-again). I say this all kindly. I do not condemn anyone for their difference of opinion. I respect the right of others to disagree with me, for that is what makes America great! Albeit, the Word of God very plainly teaches that salvation is only for the ungodly man with faith, who “worketh not” (Romans 4:5b).

Just as the train flagman waved a yellowed flag, worn by the sun and elements over time, so also has a century of corrupt theologians, corrupt Bible study aids and corrupt Bible colleges deteriorated the purity of God's Word and the clarity of the Gospel message!!! The biggest problem is apathy, but who cares, right? The average pastor today is a coward, indifferent toward the ongoing Bible issue debate, indifferent concerning the battle over the inspiration of the King James Bible, indifferent concerning the heresy of asking Jesus into one's heart to be saved, indifferent toward the truth in general. The average pastor (although many are too proud to admit it), merely approaches his profession in the clergy as just that... a career! A genuine man of God prioritizes preaching the truth over financial security.

There is a very good reason why John the Baptist lived off the land, had no mortgage, owned no earthly possessions and needed nothing from the people that he ministered to, which is so that John could rip their faces off, preaching the painful truth that most people dread hearing, and there was nothing they could do about it!!! You cannot fire a man who doesn't work for you! You cannot starve a man who eats locusts and wild honey for his sustenance! You cannot threatened a preacher who wears camel skins and needs nothing from anyone!!! To the same extent that a pastor is attached to this temporary world, he will sellout!!!
DON'T GET ADJUSTED (an awesome MP3 sermon by Pastor Lester Roloff, “You lose out when you get adjusted to living down here!”
Please watch this awesome video sermon by Pastor Ralph “Yankee” Arnold titled, Calvinism Destroyed With A Parable.” Every Christian leader and believer ought to be against Calvinism, which is a doctrine of devils. Calvinism is a powerful weapon of the Devil, which combines holy living with faith, perverting the Gospel truth. The gift of God is eternal life, which is without works.

So you see, WRONG INFORMATION is deadly!!!

My friend, it is no coincidence that John MacArthur teaches a corrupt Gospel of partial faith in Christ plus works, along with his denial of the power of the precious blood of Jesus. One affects the other. From the shed blood of the innocent animal slain by God to provide clothing for Adam and Eve in Genesis, to the robes of the saints washed in the blood of the Lamb in Revelation, the Holy Bible proclaims the necessity, redeeming power and theme of the blood of Jesus! The book of Hebrews is all about Jesus' blood sacrifice! The following passage of Scripture cannot be ignored, as Mr. MacArthur ignores. The Holy Bible plainly teaches that Jesus APPEARED IN THE PRESENCE OF THE FATHER ON OUR BEHALF...
Hebrews 9:21-26, “Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry. And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission. It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these. For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us: Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others; For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.”
Clearly, Jesus Christ ascended into Heaven after His resurrection with the literal liquid blood that He shed on the cross, and appeared in the presence of God the Father in the Holy Place (Hebrews 9:12), to sprinkle that precious redeeming blood (Hebrews 12:24) on the Mercy Seat, to appease the Father's wrath (propitiation) against all them that believe the Gospel. Romans 3:25, “Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God.” Romans 5:9, “Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.” Contrary to Dr. MacArthur's false teaching that God really means “death” when He says “blood,” you have read for yourself that the King James Bible speaks about THE BLOOD!!!

John MacArthur preaches “another spirit” and “another Gospel” (2nd Corinthians 11:3-4).

Beware of Misleading Yellow Gospels in the Churches Today!

Billions of people worldwide are being horribly misled by yellow-flag-waving preachers like John MacArthur, Ray Comfort and Paul Washer! Humbly, I am diligently doing my best, by God's grace, to expose the yellow gospels of our day. Many preachers think they are preaching the Gospel, but are in fact teaching a watered-down, weather-worn, ineffective, corrupted, works-based, yellow gospel that cannot produce the new birth.

Billions of people will one day spend eternity burning in the fires of Hell, because they died in their sins without the righteousness of God, which is solely by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. 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.” The Devil's greatest weapon is to con people into living the Christian life without ever being born-again.

Kindly, when I hear Evangelist Paul Washer saying you cannot write the date, time and place that you were saved in back of your Bible, because your life must evidence your faith to be valid, then I know Paul is not saved. Paul predicates salvation upon a changed life, which is works for salvation. That is reformation, not regeneration!!! God saves a man, and then the Holy Spirit changes that man, not himself!!!

We've got a bunch of pansy's behind the pulpit today, who nonchalantly approach the theological soundness of the Scriptures. They are shallow, going along to get along with the most hideous of doctrinal perversion, supporting multiple conflicting Bible versions and gospels, which evidences their insincerity!!! God deliver us from Caspar Milquetoast preachers! I think one of the saddest commentaries of our time is the trend of pastors who are not preachers!

Becoming a pastor is a profession, a mere job; but being a preacher is a noble calling from God, a cause! I would 10,000 times rather be a preacher than a pastor, and the man who cannot PREACH ought not ever step behind any pulpit!!! Dr. Jack Hyles (1926-2001) is right, “Preaching is truth set on fire!” We need a lot more fire in our churches today, because all I see are refrigeration units!!! The churches are beyond lukewarm, they are dead!!!

The Bible plainly teaches that eternal life is a “gift” from God. Romans 6:23, “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Now, if I were to buy you a gift, and offer it to you on the condition that you improve your behavior in any way, it could not truly be a gift. It would be a reward, for your good behavior! If something is truly a gift, you can freely take it without obligation.

So, when any false preacher; such as, Paul Washer (who is a staunch Calvinist in doctrine), says that you cannot write your name, date, time and place in the back of your Bible that you were born-again, he is teaching an accursed false gospel (2nd Corinthians 11:3-4). That false prophet is predicating receiving the free gift of God upon reformation (or the intent to reform).

If eternal life (which includes the forgiveness of all our sins) is truly a free gift from God (and it most certainly is), then you can receive it instantly, confidently and without any obligation whatsoever, now or hereafter. You simply take a gift! Salvation is received, not achieved. Salvation is a take proposition, not a give proposition. Eternal life is the free gift of God, with which the heresy of Lordship Salvation is completely incompatible!!!

We Need to Pay Attention to the Details!

In the true story that Pastor Harry Ironside told early, I cannot help but hold the flagman accountable in my thinking. He was not colorblind. He just got lazy! The once red flag clearly was faded out and no longer vivid red in its appearance. A train traveling at full speed makes it difficult for the engineer to see, let alone a faded flag. This type of carelessness is very common amongst the human race. Commercial jetliners have fallen out of the sky because one maintenance employee slacked off on his duties, or in many cases, it was simply an innocent oversight.

Something as simple as leaving tape on a pitot tube has killed hundreds of people when the commercial airliner crashed. In one case in South America, a wasp had built its home in a pitot tube while the plane sat idle for a few days outside a maintenance hanger, which caused the plane to crash and hundreds of passengers died. Heaven only knows the horrifying consequences throughout history which ensued because of the smallest job that didn't get done. Pastor Jack Hyles is so correct when he says, “The most important job is the one that doesn't get done!”

In the case of the preceding helpful illustration given by Pastor Ironside, a flagman didn't pay close enough attention to the details of his job. I couldn't think of a better and more applicable illustration which describes the multitude of lackadaisical pastors and irresponsible churches today. Church and pastors today don't pay attention to the details of the Bibles they use and promote. They don't pay attention to the preachers they promote and follow. They don't pay attention to the clarity of the Gospel. The reason why is because THEY DON'T CARE!!! Their pastors and staff get paid either way. They enjoy attending their religious fun centers and social clubs, which doesn't require being doctrinally sound, so who cares, right?

I'm talking about the shallow Bob Jones University crowd who are infected with the toxic falsehood of Calvinism today. I'm talking about the ungodly cult at Harvest Baptist Church on Guam who preach Satan's lie of Lordship Salvation. I'm talking about the corrupt Moody Bible Institute in Chicago. I'm talking about the toxic First Baptist Church of Dallas and their modern Bible versions and Lordship Salvation! I'm talking about the cesspool of iniquity at Pensacola Christian College and their deadly Lordship Salvation heresy! I'm talking about any Bible college or church that uses, sells and/or promotes the Devil's counterfeit Bible versions!

We are at spiritual war ladies and gentleman, and it's lonely out here on the frontlines fighting for God. Where Were You During The Battle? (an MP3 sermon by Pastor Jack Hyles; the sin of neutrality in the Work of God). It hurts when fellow Baptists disassociate with me, shunning me away for telling THE TRUTH! Ladies and gentleman, there is only one Gospel. That “Gospel” (i.e., Good News) is that Jesus is the Christ Who DIED on the cross for our sins, He was BURIED, and He bodily RESURRECTED from the dead three days later (1st Corinthians 15:1-6). The only stipulation to believing the Gospel to be saved is that you realize your sinnership. That is, you need to know what you are being saved from, which is, from the curse of God's Law because of your sins, and your just punishment in a burning Hell forever.

It is easy to stand for truth when it doesn't cost you anything to do so, but it's a whole different story when there's a price to pay. I have been kicked out of several churches, called a “cult” along with Pastor Jack Hyles, told I cannot attend church services anymore, and mistreated horrible by umpteen wicked pastors, simply because I told THE TRUTH that the modern Bible versions are corrupted by Satan, and that Lordship Salvation is a perversion of God's grace.

I AM RIGHT about the King James Bible and the Gospel of free grace. I have been shunned away by pastors for giving hard-copies of the excellent book by Michael P. Bowen, “I NEVER KNEW YOU.” The apostle Paul was also greatly despised and hated for telling THE TRUTH. Galatians 4:16, “Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?” 2nd Corinthians 11:6, “But though I be rude in speech, yet not in knowledge; but we have been throughly made manifest among you in all things.”

I have paid the price for taking a stand for THE TRUTH! I know the pain of being rejected by my church family at Harvest Baptist Church on Guam in 2014, and banned from coming back simply to attend church.

I know the pain of being banned in writing by scumbag Pastor Jeff Redlin at Pensacola Christian College's Campus Church in 2022, told never to return because I exposed their damnable teaching of Satan's Lordship Salvation. God's wrath is upon the PCC cult. They are damned of God for preaching a counterfeit plan of salvation.

I know the pain of being deliberately mistreated and dissed by Pastor Bill Adam's feminist toxic wife and her henpecked husband at Smyrna Baptist Church in Pensacola in 2024. They made it very clear that I am not welcomed in their church. Sadly, they distribute Jack Chick's poisonous Chick Tracts at Smyrna, which pervert the Gospel of free grace.

I know the pain of being told in 2025 never to return to the shameful Family Baptist Church in Pensacola, because the pastor's ungodly wife wears her sexy worldly pants and made an issue of my preaching on social media against women wearing pants. Her immature henpecked husband and his verbally abusive hot-tempered father chose to kick me and my wife out of church, without even bothering to talk with us. That is the type of abusive people they are!

God will justly deal harshly without mercy with Bobby and Brad Moffett, the same way they showed us no mercy, grace or understanding (Matthew 7:1). God's judgment is upon Brad Moffett's ungodly wife for wearing the attire of an harlot in public (Proverbs 7:10). Shame on all of them! The incompetent leaders of Family Baptist Church in Pensacola at 5454 W, Mobile Highway are carnally-minded neo-evangelicals, but I am a faithful fundamentalist Christian. They hated me without a cause, like the Pharisees hated Jesus, merely because of who I am.

So, I don't have a church to attend, but God knows I want too, but they won't let me, go figure! I am despised by these churches because I sincerely told THE TRUTH.

At Harvest Baptist Church on Guam, they wickedly invited Ray Comfort to preach there long ago around 2007. Ray Comfort Hinders This Woman From Being Saved, By Pressuring Her To Stop Her Sinning!!! Ray Comfort is preaching ANOTHER GOSPEL!!! One of the associate pastors (Jared Baldwin) at Harvest Baptist Church told me in 2015 that he thinks John MacArthur, Ray Comfort and Paul Washer are all men of God! I seriously question the salvation of any fool who praises men who are corrupt concerning the Gospel. I say this all in a spirit of God's unconditional love, but also with a deep concern for the spiritual well-being of fellow Baptists. The pastors of Harvest Baptist Church are in league with the Devil. And so also is Pensacola Christian College, who are in bed committing spiritual adultery with the Harvest camp in Guam. Harvest's plays Jeff Redlin's toxic sermons on their KHMG 88.1 FM radio station, poisoning Micronesia with his damned of God Lordship Salvation garbage. Birds of a feather flock together. They're all rats in the woodpile!

Someone needs to speak up for God! Psalms 94:16, “Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?” Someone needs to make some noise as Malcom X said. Malcolm X was an unsaved reprobate, a Black Muslim, but he was correct that the way to be heard is to “MAKE SOME NOISE!” I want churches to stop supporting the Devil's counterfeit Bible versions. I want pastors to stop selectively caring about people. I want preachers to stop supporting a dozen different conflicting Bible revisions and use only the inspired King James Bible. It's okay to dream, right?

I want churches to stop dabbling with two different plans of salvation, and teach only the Gospel of free grace by faith alone in Christ Jesus. I want churches to rid themselves of false prophets like Dr. John MacArthur, who errantly says, “There is no such thing as a childhood conversion.” I want churches to stop promoting Evangelist Paul Washer, who errantly says, “No, no, if you don't have works, you're going to Hell!” I want churches to start caring enough to pay attention to the details, and rid their tract display of any garbage literature requiring people to “turn away from your sinful ways” or “surrender your life to Christ” to be saved. These things are NOT a part of the Gospel!!!

So, beware my friend, because most pastors and churches today are waving yellowed flags of a false gospel message, worn away by the apostate doctrinal decadence of our ear-ticklin', back-scratchin', penny-pinchin', soft-soapin', pink-tea-and-lemonade, pantywaist, cowardly and wicked generation. These are certainly the “perilous times” foretold in Scripture (2nd Timothy 3:1-7) in which we live today! Even so, come, Lord Jesus!!!

A GOOD SINNER (The grace of God is only for poor, vile, hell-deserving, no good, sinners!)

THANK YOU dear reader for your continued interest in my website ministry. To God alone by all the praise, credit and glory, for without Jesus we can do nothing (John 15:5).
