I Was Abused At Cedars-Sinai Hospital In Los Angeles

Ecclesiastes 5:8, “If thou seest the oppression of the poor, and violent perverting of judgment and justice in a province, marvel not at the matter: for he that is higher than the highest regardeth; and there be higher than they.”

Genesis 18:21, “I will go down now, and see whether they have done altogether according to the cry of it, which is come unto me; and if not, I will know.”

When I went for my first neck surgery at Cedars-Sinai Hospital in June of 2009, the nurses had about 40 probes connected to me before the surgery. I had asked the hospital what would be done with my wallet during the surgery and the woman the day before casually told me they'd just put it in a safe, no big deal. 
But what she didn't tell me was that a thug security guard would rifle through my wallet without even asking for my permission. My wife has never gone through my wallet because out of respect she feels funny doing so. I am glad I have a considerate wife. Yet, that creepy guard at Cedars-Sinai Hospital had no respect for me as a human being. Clearly he does not know God.

I laid there in a hospital bed with wires connected to my body monotiling my vitals. I was worried about my surgery just minutes away, and I felt helpless as I watched the guard remove every item from my wallet, writing the contents down on a sheet of paper. I felt like I was being raped in my hospital bed. I know why I remained silent as he violated my person, because I was being prepared for surgery and it seemed so much more important than my feelings at the time. I felt scared and overwhelmed. I didn't want to end up paralyzed if something went wrong.

Oh, how I regret staying quiet that day! I wish to God I had kindly told the guard that if he needed to go through my wallet, I would have cancelled the surgery until another day. I would have firmly told that abusive guard, “Excuse me, you are NOT going through my wallet!”

But the rotten ungodly guard did go through my wallet w
ithout my consent, examining everything (dozens of items) in my wallet, item by item, writing it all down (no doubt so I couldn't come back later and accuse the hospital of stealing my stuff). I have so often been angry at myself for letting that inconsiderate guard violate my privacy, when I should have kindly told him that there's no way in Heaven or Hell he is going into my wallet.

I was abused, violated and mistreated at Cedar Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles in 2009. I pray for God to avenge me of the years of suffering, grief and pain of soul that guard caused me that day. It's a painful memory that I've had a hard time shaking off to forget. My only consolation is that he is likely a child of the Devil, which explains his abusive Satanic nature; but I am a child of the King, my Lord Jesus.

After my surgery, due to the mental trauma I experienced that morning, the nurse said that my heart was racing 200 mph during the surgery and they had to slow it down to save my life. I was so overwhelmed that I remained silent. I should have told the nurses that their security guard just raped me before my surgery. NO ONE has ever gone through my personal wallet, not even my wife, except that POS rent-a-cop.

I humbly believe that God will some day avenge us of even deeply hurt feelings (Matthew 12:36; Proverbs 24:12). Romans 8:32, “He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?
 I want everyone who has ever hurt my feelings to be held accountable by God in my presence, and for those whose feelings I have hurt likewise I want to apologize to them (if I haven't already).

If I were the LORD I sure would avenge my children of hurt feelings, and I'm just a guilty sinner, but God is perfect an holy and omniscient. I want those mean people held accountable for what they caused, even if that guard thought he was just doing his job. To be ethical, he should have asked me first for my consent, to be sensitive and show some humanity. God gave me a big heart as a fundamentalist Baptist preacher, but the flip-side of having a large heart is that I very easily get my feelings deeply wounded. It doesn't take much. I don't give it out (i.e., Smart Alec comments), because I admittedly don't take such gesturing well.

This is one of many painful situations in my life where I regret not speaking up. It would have made all the difference in my world, if I had simply defended my own honor that day as a human being. Instead, I reluctantly allowed that guard to violate my privacy by not speaking up. I was overwhelmed concerning the major neck surgery just moments away. People can be so abusive and cruel without even realized it, but I firmly believe that the guard knew exactly what he was doing that day, being a heartless inconsiderate abusive thug!

Regarding that horrible incident and several other problems, I earnestly complained multiple times to the hospital's human resources office and doctors alike, but they all coldly brushed me off. The hospital mailed me an insincere form letter (that they purchase from the stationary store by the box full), saying essentially: “Too bad, so sad, see ya!” I was so deeply hurt.

I ended up back in the Emergency Room the day after my surgery, because the hospital abandoned me and stuck me in a cab instead of driving me home. To get into traffic, the cab driver gunned the gas pedal and my head lunged back. The pain was excruciating. I was readmitted into the hospital the next day, but they refused to give me enough pain medication for my agonizing neck pain.

So, I told the useless nurse that I was reluctantly leaving the hospital to go home, because there was no use for me to stay if they wouldn't treat my pain. They couldn't contact the doctor because she was away for the weekend having fun. As I began to leave, the witch nurse threatened to have security come grab me if I left the hospital. So, I laid back down, not wanting to deal with more Nazi guards. I was so angry with the whole damn hospital. They also mixed up my surgery chart with another man before the surgery.

16 years ago, I wrote dozens of angry articles against Cedars-Sinai if you want all the painful details. This is an open book. I pray earnestly for justice from God. I want the hospital and everybody involved to be held fully accountable by God. I want heads to roll...
There's a mountain of angry abused patients who are victims of Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles. In their utter incompetence, Cedars-Sinai Hospital killed actor Bill Paxton (1955-2017). They killed a man's pregnant wife, and they are racists at Cedars-Sinai Hospital! I could lists umpteen more injustices committed by Cedars-Sinai Hospital, many of which have become high profile lawsuits and federal investigations. What evil monsters!

What a dung hole at Cedars-Sinai Hospital! I would NEVER step foot into that accursed place again. I wouldn't trust them with our Cockapoo dog. Cedars-Sinai abuses, mistreat, victimizes and kills people! Ecclesiastes 8:12-13, “
Though a sinner do evil an hundred times, and his days be prolonged, yet surely I know that it shall be well with them that fear God, which fear before him: But it shall not be well with the wicked, neither shall he prolong his days, which are as a shadow; because he feareth not before God.

The Inspiration Of The King James Bible Matters

Proverbs 22:28, “Remove not the ancient landmark, which thy fathers have set.”

Revelation 3:2, “Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God.”

Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001) warned the members of the First Baptist Church in Hammond, Indiana, not to allow a half dozen men to change the church when he went to Heaven.

Dr. Russell Anderson (1931-2023) Took A Biblical Stand Against The First Baptist Church Of Hammond

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 (1931-2023) was so upset about the matter that he wrote an open letter to Pastor Jack Schaap.

And Pastor John Wilkerson (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 demanded 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!
The Betrayal Of Dr. Russell Anderson By The First Baptist Church Of Hammond
Read for yourself what Pastor Jack Hyles said about the King James Bible...
What Dr. 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.

Pastor Hyles warned 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 10 YEARS later that Pastor Jack Schaap wickedly 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.

Pastor Jack Schaap foolishly said the inspiration of the King James Bible is a "side issue" which "espouses Catholic doctrine." That is blatantly 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.

I still have all my notes from Brother Joe Combs [my favorite Bible teacher who used to preach week long revivals at my home church (First Baptist Church of Marquette) in Chicago when I was a teenager]. My heart breaks regularly when I stop to realize that Brother Combs is serving 114 years in prison for his sins. There but for the grace of God, go all of us! ๐—ฃ๐˜€๐—ฎ๐—น๐—บ๐˜€ ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฒ:๐Ÿฒ, “๐—ช๐—ฒ ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ ๐˜€๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐˜„๐—ถ๐˜๐—ต ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฟ ๐—ณ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐˜€, ๐˜„๐—ฒ ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—บ๐—บ๐—ถ๐˜๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ถ๐—พ๐˜‚๐—ถ๐˜๐˜†, ๐˜„๐—ฒ ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ ๐—ฑ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฒ ๐˜„๐—ถ๐—ฐ๐—ธ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ๐—น๐˜†.”

I still have all my college notes from all my teachers at Hyles-Anderson College, those who influenced me for God, righteousness and truth. Pastor Brad Strand was my second favorite Bible teacher, who is faithfully pastoring a small country church in Texas today. I love these men! My ministry website wouldn't exist if it weren't for Hyles-Anderson College. I am forever grateful to all of them.

I do not condemn Brother Schaap for his past sins, for we are all guilty sinners. I am the biggest sinner I know. I won't tolerate anyone bashing Brother Schaap either. I delete any such comments on my Facebook page. Satan is “the accuser of the brethren” (Revelation 12:10b). I pray for Dr. Schaap regularly as my dear Brother in Christ. Satan sifted him as wheat, as the Devil desires to do to every saint of God. But the damage Pastor Schaap did to First Baptist Church of Hammond by changing their position on the Bible is irreversible.

First Baptist Church of Hammond Still Corrupt in 2026

It also grieves me that in the church's desperation after Dr. Schaap was arrested, they called Dr. John Wilkerson to be their pastor because of his solid faithful past experience as a pastor, assistant pastor and principle of a Christian school; but knowingly hired a man who admitted upfront while candidating that he is not a preacher, and does not think it a good thing to expose the modern perversions of the Bible. In his own words, Pastor Wilkerson thinks it is "disrespectful" to criticize a baby believer's Bible version, which might do more damage than good. Are you kidding me?

That's equivalent to saying that if you see a deranged man putting deadly poison into the church nursery milk bottles, you wouldn't say anything lest you offend new mothers and they leave the church permanently. What Brother Wilkerson is really admitting is that he doesn't see the spiritual dangers of the Devil's modern perversions of the Bible, or he just doesn't care. Either way, he is partly incompetent as a spiritual leader! RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS!

I like Brother Wilkerson. I stayed over at his house in Long Beach California during my college days for a wedding of a friend in college. Brother Wilkerson and his wife treated us kindly. Pastor Larry Chapel performed the wedding. We drove for about 35 hours from Chicago to Long Beach and then back. From all I have seen, Pastor Wilkerson has done a tremendous job as a pastor, but in lieu of the fact that he refuses to return the church and college to their former position that the King James Bible is inspired and without error, I cannot endorse his ministry or the college anymore, and Dr. Hyles said that himself.

Brother Hyles warned about anyone who questions the inspiration and accuracy of the King James Bible...
“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, a great quote from the awesome MP3 sermon titled, “Satan's Masterpiece”
Respectfully, from the quote you just read, according to Brother Hyles, and I agree with him, Dr. Schaap was inspired by demons! Dr. Hyles is correct—a fundamentalist is not someone who simply believes the fundamentals of the Bible; but rather, it is someone who has separated from those who no longer believe the fundamentals...
“It is rather popular to define the term 'fundamentalist' as one who believes the fundamentals; for example, one who believes the verbal inspiration of the Bible, the deity of Christ, the virgin birth, the vicarious death, the bodily resurrection and the second coming. Now, to be sure, such a one believes the fundamentals, but the term 'fundamentalist' probably should not be ascribed to him if he is still a member of an apostate denomination. The term 'fundamentalist' is given not to those who simply believe the aforementioned fundamentals but to those who have separated themselves from those who do not. This brings the doctrine of separation into focus as a vital and necessary part of being a fundamentalist.” —Pastor Jack Hyles, “What is a Fundamentalist?”; Chapter 15, from the edifying book, “Jack Hyles Speaks On Biblical Separation”
Praise God for the minority of courageous fundamentalist Christians who have “come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord” (2nd Corinthians 6:17b). My heart is with FBCH and HAC, and always will be, but as long as they are presently denying the inspiration and accuracy of the King James Bible, I cannot stand behind them. I breaks my heart that my home college no longer stands behind me as one of their graduates, because I am preaching the same exact truth that Brother Hyles taught and preached!!! God help us!

During the nightmarish attack against Pastor Hyles and ministry in 1989, he said these tremendous words...
“There is a planned, plotted, plot, right now... This isn't over Jack Hyles—This is over fundamentalism! These are evangelicals fighting fundamentalists! That's what it's all about. And their effort is to destroy Hyles-Anderson College! Over my dead body...” —Dr. Jack Hyles, a quote from the May 14, 1989 sermon, “Weathering The Storm!
Amen and amen! I am grateful that I was there in 1989 to stand faithful alongside Brother Hyles during the darkest years of his life and ministry. By God's grace, I was a friend at midnight!
“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”
If the inspiration of the King James Bible is a trifle matter to you, then GET RIGHT WITH GOD dear reader. If we do not have a perfect inspired Holy Bible in the English language today, then we don't have the truth. Jesus said in ๐— ๐—ฎ๐˜๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ๐˜„ ๐Ÿฐ:๐Ÿฐ๐—ฏ, “๐—œ๐˜ ๐—ถ๐˜€ ๐˜„๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐˜๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ป, ๐— ๐—ฎ๐—ป ๐˜€๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—น๐—น ๐—ป๐—ผ๐˜ ๐—น๐—ถ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ ๐—ฏ๐˜† ๐—ฏ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—ฑ ๐—ฎ๐—น๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฒ, ๐—ฏ๐˜‚๐˜ ๐—ฏ๐˜† ๐—ฒ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐˜† ๐˜„๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ฑ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐—ฝ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—ฐ๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐˜๐—ต ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐˜ ๐—ผ๐—ณ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—บ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐˜๐—ต ๐—ผ๐—ณ ๐—š๐—ผ๐—ฑ” (Jesus is quoting Moses from Deuteronomy 8:3). If I am to live by EVERY WORD of God, then I need an EVERY WORD Bible! That is, a correct translation!!!

The King James Bible is Inspired by God

Don't anyone dare try to convince me that our omnipotent faithful Creator, who created two trillion known galaxies by the mere Word of His mouth, was too incapable, incompetent or inept to give us a perfect and inspired Holy Bible in the English language today.

And don't you dare try to convince me that God intended for us to all become Hebrew, Chaldean and Greek scholars so that we could find and grasp the truth of His inspired Words. Which Greek? Even leading language experts cannot agree on which ancient texts are inspired, non-inspired or corrupt.

In the Old Testament there is a remarkable true story of King Solomon and two women fighting over a living child, because one of the mothers unintentionally laid upon and smothered her baby to death. Solomon asks for a sword to cut the baby in half. The one woman agreed to kill the child, each taking half. But the other woman burst out in tears and told Solomon to give the child to the other woman, thus revealing that she was indeed the child's real mother. Likewise, only the King James Bible only crowd today are crying out not to divide, tamper with or change the Holy Bible, while the Devil's religious crowd incessantly call for another Bible revision, wanting to divide the Word of God into pieces. Case in point, read this article.

It couldn't be more obvious that Satan's paw prints are upon all of the modern English Bible revisions. Dr. Hyles was right, "If you've seen one Westcott and Hort translation you've seen 'em all." Dr. Douglas D. Stauffer is right that only the inspired King James Bible stands alone!

By denying the inspiration of the King James Bible, Pastor Schaap invited a deadly Trojan Horse into the church and college. And as I type, some of the members of the First Baptist Church of Hammond are using the Devil's modern revisions, and according to Pastor Wilkerson's own words he refuses to criticize those fake bibles, lest he be "disrespectful" toward baby believers. What a cop out! Those people should be warned!!! They're going to get serious spiritual food poisoning consuming the Devil's corruptible seed.

When I attended the shameful Harvest Baptist Church on Guam in 2014, I was driving one day while listening to their KHMG 88.1 FM radio station which is broadcast throughout Micronesia. I heard Jared Baldwin, one of their incompetent associate pastors, quote James 5:16 from the corrupt Easy-To-Read Version (ERV), which says to confess our "sins" one to another. That is what he admitted to doing, confessing his "sins" to Marty Herron, the senior incompetent clown for a pastor. The King James Bible rightly says to confess our "faults" (not sins) one to another. RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS!!!

Pastor Jack Hyles Rightly Taught That The King James Bible Is Verbally and Plenary Inspired

My dear ministry friend, Pastor David Baker Sr. (1967-2024), faithfully exposed the corrupt First Baptist Church of Hammond for trashing out the inspiration of the King James Bible, and I applaud him for doing it. Dr. I saved Pastor Baker's work, downloading his entire website for safe keeping, so I can continue his work. Here is one of his website's articles...
What Dr. Jack Hyles Said About The King James Bible

Dr. Jack Hyles began preaching at the age of nineteen and pastured for over half a century. At the time of his death, First Baptist Church of Hammond, Indiana, had a membership of over one hun­dred thousand. For several years, twenty thousand folks per year made public professions of faith and ten thousand of those were baptized. Dr. Elmer Towns declared First Baptist Church as the "World's Largest Sunday School."

Dr. Hyles has authored forty-nine books and pamphlets, exceeding over ten million copies in sales. He preached over sixty thousand sermons in every state in the union and in many foreign countries. He conducted an annual Pastors' School where thousands of pastors attended.

The following excerpts were taken from Dr. Hyles' book "The Need for an Every- Word Bible."

"This statement is from the chairman of Bible at one of our well-known Bible colleges. He said, 'There is no perfect translation.' What am I going to take soul winning? If there is no perfect English transla­tion, I have no perfect Bible. My mother was wrong, and so was yours." (Page 26)

"Don't tell me I've been preaching from an imperfect Bible for 50 years! Don't tell me First Baptist Church of Ham­mond is built on an imperfect Bible! Don't be loyal to some institution! Be loyal to God's Book." (Page 26)

"If the day ever comes that some teacher at Hyles-Anderson College teaches that we have no perfect English trans­lation in the King James Bible, that rascal will never walk on campus again. He'll never teach another class." (Page 27)

"If we have no perfect Eng­lish Bible, what am I going to preach? What seed am I going to take soul winning? How am I going to live? I have to live by every word. How am I going to get my prayers answered? How can I find the will of God? How can I live a life for Christ when I have to have every word by which to live?" (Page 27)

"There is a perfect English Bible - the King James Bible." (Page 31)

"Verse 16 says, "All scripture is given by inspiration of God..." If "all scripture" means "the total Scripture," then would every

book in that "all scripture" be inspired? Would every chapter in every book of that "all scripture" be inspired? Would every verse in every chapter in every book of that "all scripture" be inspired? Then would every word in every verse in every chapter in every book in that "all scripture" be inspired? Yes! (Page 38)

"God revealed His perfect will through a perfect, written revelation, the Bible - our final authority." (Page 41)

"We must have every word, so there has to be a perfect Eng­lish Bible or we cannot live." (Page 45)

"Brother Hyles, so what if a preacher boy goes down to a so-called Christian college where he sits in a liberal pro­fessor's class who teaches, 'We have no perfect Bible.' What difference does it make?"

It makes all the difference in the world! What that preacher better do is take the Bible rather than some institution to which he subscribes his loyalty. What he better do is stop and realize that if we have no per­fect English Bible, we cannot live because, ''...Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeded! out of the mouth of God." (Matthew 4:4) (Page 51)

"God has preserved His words for us in the King James Bible." (Page 51)

"Every generation has to redefine the Bible for itself. Every generation has to dis­cover for itself that the King James Bible contains the words of God. Every generation has to experience a split because every movement experiences a natural deterioration." (Page 53)

"The biggest split that has ever come will come in the next ten years, if not sooner, over the King James Bible, and it wouldn't come soon enough for me." (Page 54)

"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..." (Page 54)

"The issue that is dividing Baptists in my generation is the healthiest issue ever, the Bible. What better issue could divide? We're not going to divide over some piddling issue. We are going to divide over the founda­tion of our faith and that is, 'What is the Word of God, and where is the Word of God?'" (Page 54)

"Let me explain what I mean when I say that the King James Bible contains the words of God. I believe that every word in the King James Bible is God's Word." (Page 54)

"That means that the Bible I hold in my hands contains the very words of God Almighty. If I believed what most nonde-nominational, so-called Bible col­leges believe, I would close my Bible and never preach another sermon." (Page 57)

"I ask you theologian, 'Did Jesus have the very words of God or not?' If I don't, He didn't! If God could preserve His words for 4,000 years when they had no printing presses at all, don't you think He could preserve the words of God for 2,000 years with our modern ways of printing?" '(Page 58)

"If the people in the church at Ephesus had a perfect Bible with which to fight the Devil, 1 have to have a perfect Bible with which to fight the Devil." (Page 58)

"I will give my loyalty to principles and support the institutions that embrace those principles. I've been saying that for over 48 years. Don't be surprised because I've dropped my loyalty to some institu­tions." (Page 62)

"That revelation which God inspired has been preserved as He said He would preserve it for these 6,000 years, which means we still have those very words..." (Page 63)

"So saint of God who doesn't know any Greek, just open the old King James Bible and look up to God and say, 'I'm going to read it; now You teach it to me.' That is the best form of Bible study any person will ever have." (Page 64)

"If God did not preserve the Words of the Bible, then He is a respecter of persons, but the Bible says that God is no respecter of persons." (Page 67)

"Every preacher whom I know who does not believe there is a perfect Bible, and who claims to preach the Gospel went off to college with a King James Bible. There some dirty professor tampered with him and shook his faith in the Book from which his pastor preached..."(Page 68)

"Is God so weak that He could not preserve His words? Could not the God Who gave His Words to holy men of old preserve His words for our generation?" (Page 69)

"Would God give one gen­eration a sword but another generation a penknife?" (Page 69)

"I believe with all my soul that those preaching from a bunch of false Bibles are planting corrupt­ible seed." (Page 72)

"Would God give all pure words to one generation but impure words to another gen­eration?" (Page 72)

"If the Bible needs improv­ing, it isn't perfect." (Page 73)

"My Bible says that the words and the Spirit are the same." (Page 75)

"There never was a time when the Word of God did not exist. There never will be a time when they don't exist. (Page 77)

"We will have in Heaven the eternal words of God that we now have." (Page 79)

"God has provided today's Christian with a more sure word of prophecy,''' (Page 90)

"The Bible doesn't say, "Man shall live by every thought or every meaning." The Bible says, "'every word." (Page 96)

"God gave the words to Jer­emiah who gave the words to Baruch, and we still have all the words of the Lord." (Page 97)

"Every single word of God has been preserved in the King James Bible, the only Bible!" (Page 97)

"The word verbal means that every word of the Bible is inspired. Plenary means that the entire Bible is inspired word for word. Verbal inspiration says, 'Look at a word in the Bible; it is inspired by God.' Plenary inspi­ration says, 'Every word in the Bible is inspired by God; all of it is inspired by God.' Every Scrip­ture is inspired by God! The inspiration of the Scripture is being attacked." (Page 126)

"In our generation, there is nothing under attack more than the King James Bible. Nothing! "(Page 137)

"If the only place in the world where we have a word-for-word inspired Bible is in the original that means that today there is no book that contains the words of God." (Page 138)

"I believe that every word in the King James Bible is the word of God and I believe it always was." (Page 139)

"I'm talking about schools and professors who disguise themselves as fundamentalists, who do not believe that there is a book in the world that con­tains the very words of God." (Page 140)

"My Bible says that the Word of God is pure." (Page 141)

"Where are the words of God? I hold in my hand the words of God - the King James Bible." (Page 143)

"It comes back to the fact that we don't believe that we have an every-word Bible. What we have done is cater to whatever new fad comes out and give them a Bible to please them." (Page 144)

"Let's be people of the Book. Let's defend it. Let's stand for it." (Page 144)

"America needs to get back to the King James Bible." (Page 144)

"We just need one Sword -The King James Bible!" (Page 145)

"There has to be a book in this world somewhere that con­tains all the words of God with not one word added and not one word taken away. I believe I hold it in my hand - The King James Bible." (Page 150)

"The King James Bible is not copyrighted. It's available to everybody." (Page 150)

Thank God For Faithful Servant Pastor David Baker Sr.

I am so grateful to Pastor David Mark Baker Sr. (February 5, 1967 - September 11, 2024) of the lighthouse Baptist Church in Columbus, Tennessee, where he was the faithful pastor for 31 years from 1993 to 2024 Dr. baker faithfully served our Lord Jesus Christ. He admirably served in prison ministries for 28 years, helping men who were captured by Satan (Acts 26:17-18).

Dr. Baker was also involved in a ministry of restoring fallen preachers, called Restoration Care Ministries (RCM). God bless that dear saint of God! Preachers are on the front lines of the war between good and evil today, hated by the Devil's children. John 15:19, “If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.”

Case in point. Long time rock band KISS Frontman Gene Simmons (real Jewish name: Chaim Witz) has boasted publicly of having commit fornication with 5,000 women (Hebrews 13:4), which the American newsmedia sanctions and even rewards, continually praising Mr. Simmons for his musical success. Even U.S. President Donald Trump honored Gene Simmons in 2025. SHAME!!!

Yet, when Pastor Baker was merely accused in 2024 of wrong doing, the wicked media ran with the story as if it were Gospel truth and demonized him without mercy. The poor fella didn't even have his day in court yet before slanderers, haters and the wicked media tore him down. The truth is that they hated Brother Baker because he was a fundamentalist Bible preacher, just like the world hated Jesus (John 7:7). ...

“There is a planned, plotted, plot, right now... This isn't over Jack Hyles—This is over fundamentalism! These are evangelicals fighting fundamentalists! That's what it's all about. And their effort is to destroy Hyles-Anderson College! Over my dead body...” —Dr. Jack Hyles, a quote from the May 14, 1989 sermon, “Weathering The Storm!

Whatever happened to a person being deemed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law? Anyone would feel overwhelmed when the media and haters go after an accused man without mercy to slander and hated on them. Proverbs 11:9, “An hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth his neighbour: but through knowledge shall the just be delivered.” Sadly, Brother Baker took his own life on September 11, 2024. I miss my dear ministry friend!

I downloaded and improved the audio quality of these classic sermons by Pastor Baker in defense of the inspiration of the King James Bible...

  1. Inspiration Of The King James Bible (2009)
  2. King James Bible Inspiration (2011)

The Bible identifies Satan as THE ACCUSER OF THE BRETHREN! Revelation 12:10, “And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. Lucifer's day of reckoning is coming, when he will split Hell wide open for his crimes against God and humanity.

When you unjustly accuse someone without proof, you are behaving just like the Devil. That's why we have a proper legal court system! In the court of public opinion there is no cross-examination, you are automatically presumed guilty and your name and reputation are ruined before you've even been to court. That is as evil and Satanic as idolatry, murder, witchcraft and the Church of Satan!

The ungodly media in Columbus, Tennessee, published the slander of one bitter, angry, ungodly woman against Pastor Baker, and that became their sole opinion of Pastor Baker's entire life. SHAME on the media! Woe unto that news station on Judgment Day. If I, being a broken guilty redeemed sinner (like you are too), can see the utter hypocrisy of the secular media and the heathen, do you think our omnipotent, omniscient and just Creator doesn't see it? Hebrews 4:12, “Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

We are living in a wicked generation in the United States where people who go into sin are often kicked in the head by self-righteous haters. Our American news media is toxic! All they do is criticize, find fault, tear down and assume guilty before there is even a proper court trial.

Matthew 7:1-5, “Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

My heart goes out to Brother Baker's family. Pastor Baker is another unfortunate causality of this wicked generation, but be of good cheer dear saints of God because we are on the winning side through faith in Christ Jesus (John 16:33). No child of God has any charges against them in Heaven. Romans 8:33-34, “Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth. Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.” Brother Baker is safe in the Father's everlasting arms, rejoicing with the saints over souls saved, enjoying the calm and peace of Heaven. Proverbs 4:18, “But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.”

Satan calls us by our sins; God calls us by our name. The world remembers a man for his sins and faults; but concerning the saints, God looks at the entire life (Revelation 14:13). Dear reader, Pastor David Baker fought the good fight of faith in defense of the verbal and plenary inspiration of the trustworthy King James Bible, as I am continually to do.

If you don't have a King James Bible, you don't have an inspired Holy Bible! All of the modern English Bible revisions are corrupt. To God alone be all the praise, credit and glory. Jesus is precious!!!

Be Careful About Being Braggadacious

1st Corinthians 10:5-12, “But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness. Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted. Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play. Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand. Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents. Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer. Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come. Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.”

I cringe when I hear pastors being braggadocios, boasting of their success. I heard a sermon today by a popular independent fundamental Baptist pastor. If I mentioned his name everyone would instantly recognize him, if you are a fundamental Baptist. The sermon is about how him and his wife have stayed married for 25 years. Throughout the sermon he boasts that he and his wife have been careful to avoid bad friends, don't let the sun go down upon their wrath each day, take time for each other, go on cabin retreats with a fireplace, take vacations together every year, enjoy one another, et cetera. A few years later his wife was getting deep, damp and dirty with a staff member at the church where her husband was the pastor. She fell into the horrible sin of adultery for a couple months, until they were caught and exposed. The pastor resigned. That pastor is no longer braggadocios about his successful marriage.

I am thinking about another married couple. The fella was a well known pastor of one of the largest independent fundamental Baptist churches in the world. If I mentioned his name everyone would recognize him right away, if you are familiar at all with the independent Baptist movement. He and his wife were both braggadocios of their successful marriage. They both wrote books boasting about their successful marriage. In the wife's book she wrote, “I cannot believe the type of men that some women marry.” She bragged that her future was so bright that she needed to wear sunglasses, and she was wearing sunglasses to enhance her point.

The pastor and his wife relished in boasting publicly about their “happy marriage. The cocky pastor slandered other preachers, one in particular, hypocritically accusing him publicly of plowing with someone else's heifer (referring to Judges 14:18). Although the pastor didn't mention the man's name, everyone knew exactly who he was talking about because his details were so vivid. I knew who he was slandering, and so did the man's mother in the church.

Well, a couple years later that cocky pastor commit adultery with a 17 year old young woman. He was sentenced to over a decade in prison. His ungodly self-righteous wife divorced him and married a different man, a stranger, a bum. This is the arrogant woman who criticized other ladies, saying, “I cannot believe the type of men that some women marry.” Uh huh! Look to thine own ways Ma'am! Some of my ministry readers may have figured out the couples I am talking about. I won't mention their names. I am not anyone's judge (James 4:12).

I wrote this article to warn others not to become haughty and braggadocios in pride just because you've enjoyed good success thus far in life. The proper Christian attitude should always be, “There but for the grace of God go I.” Proverbs 16:18, “Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.”

Our text passage of Scripture teaches that God has intentionally shared with us the faltering and failure of the Jews in the Wilderness, and then again when 20,000 Jews were killed by God for the sin of complaining, as ensamples (examples). God hates complaining! Romans 15:4, “For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.” God has given us hundreds of edifying biographies of Old Testament saints for our LEARNING, that by examining their lives (before, during and after their life on earth), we will find comfort and hope in the Scripture. Whereas they couldn't see their hand in front of their face during their suffering and tribulation, we have been given a privileged look into their lives. We have the special privilege of seeing the outcome of their faith in Christ (Acts 10:43).

Our text passage of Scripture from 1st Corinthians 10:5-12 teaches that God has given us Old Testament examples of how easily we can falter and go into sin, ruining our testimony. 1st Corinthians 10:11-12, “Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come. Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.” To “admonish” means “to strongly warn; to put on guard.” God gave us these intriguing biographies of Old Testament saints as a blessing to help us live right, to warn us so that we will be on guard against evil. Proverbs 4:23, “Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.”

I cringe whenever I hear a proud pastor bragging about his successful marriage, his big ministry, his ten thousand sermons or his great character. Proverbs 16:18, “Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.” People compliment and thank me all the time for my website ministry, which the LORD has blessed since 2002 when by God's grace I started my Jesus-is-Savior.com website ministry. I always pass the praise onto the dear LORD. John 15:5, “I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

In 2003, by God's grace I started Lovethetruth.com. In 2004, I started Godlovespeople.com. In 2005, I started Dividedbytruth.org. In 2006, I started Soulwinning.info. In 2010, I started SteelC6th.com (since I preach the Gospel this music website is also a ministry). By God's grace, in 2013, I started my Jesusisprecious.org website. Amen and amen! I am not bragging, God forbid. It has only been by God's amazing grace, by His blessed Holy Spirit working through me as a wretched redeemed sinner, that all this has been possible.

Perhaps the greatest comment I have ever received from a web visitor was about 15 years ago. He said, “Thank you for allowing God to do all this through you.” At first I was taken back by his comment. I thought to myself, “Who am I to allow God to do anything?” But then I pondered over his compliment and realized that what he said is 100% biblical. Ezekiel 22:30, “And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none. We are not expendable as Christians to God. If we don't yield to serve the LORD, no one else can fill our shoes. For the past 24 years of internet ministry, by God's grace, I have humbly allowed God's Holy Spirit to work through me to preach the Gospel to the lost, and to feed Jesus' sheep.

The Sword of the Lord Is Becoming Toxic

I subscribe to the Sword Of The Lord (located in Murfreesboro, Tennessee), a publication founded in 1934 by the faithful soulwinning evangelist Dr. John R. Rice (1895-1980). Brother Rice's successor was Pastor Curtis Hutson (1934-1995). I cherish both of these faithful men of God. Today the ministry is led by Dr. Sheldon Smith, who I am not very impressed with. Dr. Smith values money more than truth. I kindly contacted the Sword of the Lord a couple years ago in 2022 to warn them about Pensacola Christian College (PCC), warning them that PCC is wrong on repentance and the Gospel. I actually found FOUR different plans of salvation at PCC. Tragically, the Sword of the Lord totally ignored me and couldn't care less about right doctrine. For years now the Sword has been promoting PCC in a large advertisement in each publication. 2nd John 1:11, “For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.”

In Volume XCII, No. 5, dated for March 6, 2026, an article appears on page 15 in the Sword of the Lord written by a pastor's wife, Janet Walsh. Her article is titled, “God Doesn't Need Me, But He Blesses Obedience.” Dear reader, that is junk theology! What do you mean God doesn't need us? You are the only Jesus that someone knows! To someone you are “the uttermost part of the earth” (Acts 1:8b). God does need you and me! There are lost sinners that only I can reach. There are lost family members that only you can reach with the Gospel.

Where did that pastor's wife ever get the erroneous idea that God doesn't need us? Get thee behind me, Satan! In Ezekiel 22:30 God said He sought for a man among the people who would stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none. God needed a man, but He couldn't find one. God didn't create another man to meet His need. There was no one! God wasn't looking for a woman. All women preachers are false prophets!

The Apostle Paul wrote in Philippians 2:20, “For I have no man likeminded, who will naturally care for your state. Paul couldn't find a man who shared his ministry vision and burden, just like God couldn't find a man to stand in the gap in prayer before Him for the land. We are all that God has to work with dear reader. If we do not fulfill God's will for OUR LIFE, there is no one else to fill our shoes. So, yes, God does indeed need you and me, very much.

Please don't ever let some ignorant pastor's wife convince you that God doesn't need you. Regardless of whether it is the Sword of the Lord, BBN (Bible Broadcasting Network), the local church that you attend, or some lifeless religious college—I encourage you dear reader to learn to THINK OBJETIVELY, questioning everything. 1st John 4:1, “Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.” Some of the most dangerous places to be on earth today is in Bible college or a local church. A counterfeit gospel is being preached from nearly every pulpit today. Preachers are like parrots merely repeating what other preachers say. I think for myself.

The Holy Bible prophecies in the Old Testament book of Amos that in the last days there will be a famine, not of food, but of the inspired Words of God. Amos 8:11, “Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD. With literally hundreds of English Bible revisions today, the inspired Words of God are being obscured, lost and replaced with Satan's corruptible seed (Genesis 3:15). Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001) uses Genesis 3:15 as his text for one of my favorite sermons titled, The Battle Of The Ages” (1994).

It Is Only By God's Grace That We Can Do Anything

The Christian life is all about God's grace. As believers we don't grow in strength, we grow in grace. 2nd Peter 3:18, “But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen. The inspired Word of God teaches that Jesus (our Creator according to John 1:3 - King James Bible only) “giveth to all life, and breath, and all things” (Acts 17:25b).

Jesus plainly said in John 15:4-8, “Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. that He is the Vine and we as saints are the branches, and without Christ we can do nothing.This Scripture passage is talking about soulwinning.

1st Corinthians 3:6-7, “I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.” I cannot save anybody! Romans 1:16 clearly identifies “the gospel of Christ” as “the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth.”

Carefully notice that no mention is made in Romans 1:16 of repenting of your sins, confessing Jesus publicly, getting water baptized, partaking of sacraments, inviting Jesus into your life, becoming a Christ follower, asking Jesus into your heart, being willing to turn from your past sinful ways, surrendering your will to live an obedient life, living a lifestyle of repentance, nor any other garbage; the inspired Scripture simply promises eternal life to “every one that believeth.” John 6:47, “ Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.

Dear reader, if my website and blog ministry have been a blessing to you, then know that it is only because of God's blessed Holy Spirit working through me as His child. I have no special in road to God. The very same throne of grace that is freely available to help me is also available to you friend, if you are a born again Christian. ...
Hebrews 4:14-16, “Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.“
I first read and fell in love with this precious passage of Scripture during my first year at Hyles-Anderson College while living in the dorms. Once I read this passage and it burned into my heart the confidence to approach God's throne of grace boldly, I have never forgotten what I learned. Whereas the unsaved sinner has no right to come before God's throne, every redeemed sinner whose faith is in Jesus Christ does. That is a great comfort and confidence!

I have tried carefully over the decades of my ministry not to become braggadocios. My life has been a trainwreck. My marriage has been a nightmare. My health afflictions are many and debilitating. I am a broken sinner saved by the undeserving grace of God. I do not claim to be a good Christian, but God knows that I do truly care. I CARE! The most important job is the one that doesn't get done! Little things are important. Here is a life changing sermon by Dr. Jack Hyles titled, The Importance Of Five Minutes.
“Nothing is unimportant! Nothing! Every little detail's important!” —Pastor Jack Hyles, “Unjust In The Least
The reason why Pensacola Christian College has FOUR different plans of salvation is simply because they don't care. Just like Romans 16:17-18 says, PCC are in the ministry for the INCOME, not the OUTCOME. Romans 16:18, “For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.” At PCC, they don't pay attention to the details because it's not a priority to them. The accuracy of the Gospel doesn't matter at PCC.

You'll find everything from a free grace Gospel to Lordship Salvation officially being taught at their dungheap for a college. I heard assistant pastor Timothy Zacharias on July 21, 2021 (at a Wednesday evening service) errantly teach that you must repent to change your behavior to get to Heaven. That is another gospel! Such recklessness clearly evidences that they are only in the religious business to make money. PCC take in $175,000,000 each year! I feel sorry for any parent who financially pays for their impressionable child to go to such a blatant cult.

Always Credit God For The Good Things In Your Life

I began this article by mentioning two married couples in the clergy who were braggadocios about their marriages, but years later when calamity struck home and their marriages fell apart, they weren't so cocky. If you have been married for 40 or 50 years, you had better glorify God and testify that it was only by God's goodness, mercy and grace that you didn't end up divorced. Ladies and gentlemen, we don't give God enough due credit...
Daniel 5:23, “But hast lifted up thyself against the LORD of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of his house before thee, and thou, and thy lords, thy wives, and thy concubines, have drunk wine in them; and thou hast praised the gods of silver, and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, nor know: and the God in whose hand thy breath is, and whose are all thy ways, hast thou not glorified.
I cringed today as I heard a fundamentalist Baptist pastor giving all the reasons in a sermon why he and his wife have been married for 25 years. A couple years later when his pretty wife was being banged in bed by another man in the church, he wasn't so arrogant and confident about their marriage success. I refuse to boast about any of my own accomplishments. God is the Potter; We are the clay.

Also, please do not ever commit the foolish sin of boasting that your child is an honor role student without glorifying God, because that child could someday break your heart and wind up serving life in prison, overdose to death on drugs, or shame you in a hundred possible ways. We live in a wicked humanistic society in the United States. McDonald's says, You Deserve a Break Today, but the Holy Bible says you deserve to burn in Hell forever (Revelation 21:8). Burger King says, Have It Your Way!,” but the Holy Bible says to follow God's way (Proverbs 3:5-7).

The food we eat is by God's grace. The roof provided over our head is by God's grace. James 1:17, “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. There are 10,080 minutes in each week. Have we thanked God with even one of those minutes?

Al Capone's Wife Mae Stayed Faithful To Him In Prison

The other carnal pastor's wife I mentioned earlier, who said in her book that she couldn't believe the type of men that some women marry, ended up abandoning her husband while he was rotting in prison and she cruelly married another man. What a wicked thing to do! Marriage vows mean nothing anymore! The marriage license is a worthless piece of paper these days, when courts nationwide allow no fault divorces for any reason. What do you mean no fault? You're both at fault!!!

And by the way, adultery is NOT biblical grounds for divorce. You mean to tell me that you couldn't divorce a spouse like Al Capone who murdered dozens of gangsters, but you can for adultery? You're a fool if you believe it is okay to divorce an unfaithful spouse! When Jesus spoke of divorcing in the case fornication, He clearly meant during the courtship phase (as is perfectly illustrated in the case of Joseph and Mary in the New Testament).

By divorcing her husband while he was alone in prison, that wicked pastor's wife I just mentioned a moment ago was being self-righteous. She is just as much a rotten sinner as her adulterous husband! She shouldn't have condemned her husband for sinning differently than she did. The wife of infamous gangster Al Capone (1899-1947) stayed faithful to him while he rotted in prison serving an 11 year sentence for tax evasion? What a gal!

Al Capone contracted the disease syphilis from his years of philandering with harlots. He entered into prison with the disease in 1931, but Penicillin (the cure) wasn't discovered by the military until 1939. So, he went untreated in prison. Capone's brain and bones were eaten with holes by the time he was released from prison in 1939. Yet, his wife Mae Capone stayed faithfully married to Al, until death did they part. Shame on that wicked pastor's wife for divorcing her imperfect husband, when the wife of the world's most notorious gangster stayed faithful to her husband all his life. Truly, Christians behave worse than the world sometimes.

There but for the grace of God, go I.

Please Remember My Health Afflictions In Your Prayers

Psalms 145:9, “The LORD is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.”

Please keep me in your prayers. I don't mention my own suffering very often, because I want to stay focused on the things of God. I was rear-ended by a full-sized 72 passenger school bus in 1992 while driving a church bus for the Lord, at the First Baptist Church of Hammond. I was also driving a full-sized bus. Someone irresponsibly left an abandoned car on the roadway, which set up the accident involving three church buses from Hammond. I slammed on the breaks to avoid hitting the car, but the guy behind me wasn't paying attention. The driver struck our bus so hard that his bus was totaled. His engine and transmission were shattered into hundreds of pieces on the ground. Vehicle fluids were everywhere.


At least two dozen ambulances came to the accident scene. The head of the bus worker sitting in the back seat of the bus went through the window. I saw blood and a big hole in the glass. The insurance company didn't even try to repair the other bus, they just bought a brand new bus for the Illinois Bus Company. Bus director Danny Club said it was the second to worst accident in the history of the First Baptist Church of Hammond. The worst was when a boy stuck his head out the window, and as the bus dipped over the curb leaving the church parking lot, his head was pinched between a telephone pole and the bus, and he died. His mother was sitting right behind him, spattered with his blood. It is so heartbreaking.

That's why there are rules not to lower the window below the halfway line, but I could mention some names (but I won't) of men that I went to school with, who are pastoring today, who broke the rules all the time. It sickens me still today, 35 years later. I actually had one bus captain ask me to drive the church bus over train tracks while the lights were flashing and the gates were down. I refused to do it. Sadly, a lot of young guys are IDIOTS!

Anyway, my driver's seat was broken off its hinges. Try to imagine the amount of blunt force energy required to pass through the chassis of a 72 passenger full-sized school bus, to break the driver's seat off its hinges. I went to the hospital and they took x-rays, but they weren't trained to look for misalignment of my spine. Nothing was broken, but my neck was crooked, and I didn't know it at the time. 
That misalignment of my cervical (neck) spine 12 years later led to Degenerative Cervical Disk Disease (which essentially means my neck is falling apart slowly as I grow older).

After 4 months of taking my money and doing nothing, I told the chiropractor that enough was enough. So, he sent me to Chicago MRI in 2004 and they diagnosed me with protruding disks at C4-C5-C6-C7. My chronic burning neck pain and stiff tension literally started over night. I had experienced mild tension previously, but it became much worse in February of 2004.

I wasn't a candidate for neck surgery at the time, because I didn't have any radiating pain, yet. In 2005, I tumbled 15 feet down a mailslide at the U.S. postal Service. Some packages on a conveyor belt had buckled, breaking two fluorescent bulbs. I worked in maintenance and was called to replace the bulbs, which I did. The packages had been sticking to the slide, so my boss in his infinite wisdom handed me some baby powder to give mail processing to make the packages slide better. Well, I slipped on the baby powder and as they say, "The rest is history!" I fell hard which worsened my existing neck injury. I now felt sharp radiating pain down both arms, and 80% on the right side of my body. I was then a candidate for surgery.

By 2009 I couldn't take the pain anymore radiating down my right arm. So I had my first Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF) surgery done at Cedar's Sinai in Los Angels. I lived on the island of Guam at the time. My primary care doctor on Guam said afterwards that they did the bare minimum, so in 2010 I had the surgery redone in Long Beach, California. That second surgery made me 100% worse, leaving both of my arms feeling inflated with air all the time. My right leg still today goes numb and the whole right side of my body feels half asleep all the time.

The constant agonizing osteoarthritic pain in the bony area of the back of my neck is debilitating. I also suffer from constant neck tension, which I've had for 34 years now. I had totally forgotten about the rear-end collision in 1992, and I remember that at work I used to often wonder why my neck was so tense, when nothing was wrong to make me tense. I had totally forgotten about the whiplash. After the accident, for about 2 weeks it felt like an iron rod was put inside my neck. I felt horrible tight tension until the trauma of the accident had diminished, and then I forgot about the accident, not realizing that my spine was misaligned.

It wasn't until 2004 that a chiropractor told me what had happened, and showed me from an x-ray that I have what is medically known as, "Reverse Cervical Curve." That abnormal alignment on my cervical spine caused the junction between the cervical and thorax spine to eventually deteriorate, which injury is permanent.

I also suffer from constant burning nerves throughout my upper body, which very unpleasant feeling I cannot express in words. It feels like I am on fire, not fire fire, but nerve fire. Both of my arms still feel pumped up with air, doubled in size all the time. I suffer from neck atrophy (stiffness), sometimes scraping the bald top of my head when I get into my car. I have to do regular stretching exercising to prevent further atrophy. There is no medical cure for my adverse afflictions. I've undergone 5 months of torturous physical therapy, 3 useless steroid injections, multiple worthless TENS unit, useless cold and hot packs, non helpful multiple chiropractors, two major surgeries that made me much worse, et cetera. I have prayed hundreds of times over the decades for the good LORD to heal me, but this is my thorn in the flesh. Blessed be the name of the Lord Jesus Christ!

To make matters worse, doctors are afraid of the government today. At one time on Guam (around 2011) I was prescribed 140 mg daily of OxyContin (and another 60 mg of Morphine Sulfate). The good ole days! Now, in Pensacola, Florida, the only pain doctor I could find who would accept me as a patient only prescribes 40 mg a day, which is not near enough pain drugs. Thankfully, she also prescribes 2 pills of Percocet 10/325, which helps for 5 hours a day. I have no complaints to the dear LORD. I see miserable people completely paralyzed in wheel chairs and hospital beds, totally incapacitated. So I count my lucky stars and bless the LORD. Pastor Jack Hyles said that when palsied people came to counsel with him, sometimes after they left he would jump up and down, praising and thanking God for his health.

By the time Dr. Hyles reached his 70's, he suffered from 10 different medical afflictions. He wore hearing aids in both ears. He had a hernia that he never had fixed and died with it. he suffered from cataracts in both eyes. He had a physical heart condition, which he learned about the very same day that his dear grandson was sadly killed in an accident in Florida. Brother Hyles had health issues with his feet. As we grow older, we collect injuries, scars and health problems. It's just the way of life. King David in the Bible speaks of his rotting teeth, the stench of his disease (likely venereal disease from all his philandering with women) and his poor eyesight. Getting old is no fun.

That all being said my ministry friends, please remember me in your prayers. I am hurting much. I rarely feel like going onto social media. I have had to kindly tell several dozen people on social media that I do not "chat" online. I don't have the patience for pen pals, buddies or making small talk online. I welcome and love answering Bible questions, by God's grace, but due to my health afflictions I don't have the energy to chat with people in conversation. I do it from time to time randomly, but try to avoid it as a practice.

One of my favorite sermons by Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001) is titled, “The Patient Waiting Of Christ,” in which he talks about having a burden that will never go away. My heath afflictions are permanent, 'til death do us part. It is only God's grace that sustains me day by day...
James 5:10-11, “Take, my brethren, the prophets, who have spoken in the name of the Lord, for an example of suffering affliction, and of patience. Behold, we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.”
Gratefully, God has given me the perfect website ministry, which I can work on night or day at my leisure. I can and often do walk away from my computer just to go lay down. I need a calm harbor in my life more than anything.

I just turned 59 years old, by God's goodness and grace, and I simply cannot process chaos like I could in my 30's. I live a simple life. I don't sign anything unless I have to. I check my mailbox once a week. I never answer my phone, I let T-Mobile's Voice Mail record all incoming messages. I have a sweet deal with T-Mobile. I only pay $15 a month for unlimited calls and text. I bought my Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus on Amazon refurbished for $250 and love it. I digress.

I rarely feel like doing anything, going anywhere or being around people. It is difficult for me to sit though a church service. I have to make myself doing anything. I love playing stringed instruments, but rarely feel like playing them. I have to make myself do it, but can only play for awhile before I need to stop and go rest. I push myself on some days, but due to my pain and related bodily afflictions I am easily irritated and frustrated. One of my all-time favorite sermons by Pastor Jack Hyles is titled, "At First You Just Exist."

I think about that sermon probably more than any other sermon by Brother Hyles, because it is very applicable to my life. Oftentimes I just have to exist, even though I don't want to. I am not suicidal, I just want to go home to be with Jesus. Philippians 1:21, “For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.” You won't hear me often complaining about my health afflictions. First, it doesn't make anything better. Second, people don't want to hear it all the time. Third, I have spent the past 24 years of website ministry focusing on helping others, which has given me strength to keep going for Christ. David said in 1st Samuel 17:29b, “Is there not a cause?” Yes, there is a cause and by God's grace I am fulfilling it for my dear Savior. Colossians 4:17, “Take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou fulfil it.” One day at a time!

Thank you for visiting my Facebook page and for reading my rants and posts. Also, for those of you who regularly visit my ministry Facebook page, blogs and websites, you know that I can get emotionally upset sometimes, which shows in my writings. I am a musician and musicians are emotional people. That is what drew me to the pedal steel guitar, because it is such an expressive instrument.

Add to that my health afflictions which cause constant pain, burning and suffering and it's not difficult to see why I get so upset at times. But I am doing the best I can by God's grace. I have always believed that when I get upset, that God is glad to see that someone else cares enough about right doctrine, the purity of the Holy Bible and the accuracy of the Gospel to get worked up and angry over it. Throughout the Bible God often got angry. He wanted to kill the Hebrews at Mount Sinai. The Lord wanted to kill Moses for not circumcising his son. God has a righteous temper (Psalms 6:1). Dr. Hyles had a righteous temper. God pity the Bible preacher who never gets angry over sin, heresy and corruption.

My constant debilitating burning neck pain, inexplicable horrible burning nerves, the right side of my body feeling half asleep all the time, stiff neck tension, adverse drug side effects and related bodily afflictions keep me humble in the LORD. God is faithful (1st Corinthians 1:9). Trying to explain to others what I am suffering through is like trying to describe what it feels like to get hit by a car versus getting hit by a car yourself. There is no comparison!

Thank you for your patience with this broken fundamentalist Bible preacher. Fundamentalists are much hated by ungodly neo-evangelicals today. That is why I have been kicked out of most of the churches I have attended over the past 15 years, including Campus Church at Pensacola Christian College and Family Baptist Church in Pensacola. Devils in the pulpit! Neo-evangelicals don't care! They're in the ministry for the income, not the outcome (Romans 16:17-18).

Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001) was so right...
“You can't love anybody until you love everybody!” —Pastor Jack Hyles, “The Test Of Spiritual Maturity

My favorite preacher, Brother Hyles, used to often sing this precious song to encourage the church and Hyles-Anderson College students, which I often sing myself... 

My Lord Knows The Way
Through The Wilderness;
All I Have To Do Is Follow.

My Lord Knows The Way
Through The Wilderness;
All I Have To Do Is Follow.

Strength For Today Is Mine Always,
And All That I Need For Tomorrow;

My Lord Knows The Way
Through The Wilderness;
All I Have To Do Is Follow.
My Lord Knows The Way
