Romans 2 Condemns The Lordship Salvation Crowd

Romans 1:1, “Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things.” 

Many Bible students don't understand this Bible verse, but it is very simple. You have to read the whole chapter, Romans chapter 2, to rightly divide this passage. The Jews were trying to earn their way to Heaven by keeping the Old Testament law. Paul is frustrated with them, trying to teach them here that they are hypocrites for even trying to turn from sin, because they cannot...

Romans 2:21-24, “Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal? Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege? Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God? For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.”

Are you listening Marty Herron? Are you listening Gary Walton? Are you listening Charles Phelps? Are you listening Steve Pettit? Are you listening Bob Jones University crowd? You haven't turned from your sins!!! What you've done to abuse me since 2014 is proof enough of that fact! I still don't attend church because Pastor Herron threw me under a bus and left me for dead. So now Harvest Baptist Church of Guam is sinfully holding a grudge against me, because I loved them enough to tell THE TRUTH in 2014 to help them. Run you Bob Jones heathens with your umpteen Devil's Bible revisions! Run Bob Jones crowd with your Devil's lie of Lordship Salvation! I'll side with Pastor Jack Hyles and the inspired and infallible King James Bible...

“The King James Bible crowd is going to come out on top!” —Pastor Jack Hyles, a quote from the sermon: “The Battle Of The Ages”

If you want to be close to God, whoever you may be, then you must humble yourself to THE TRUTH. Use only the King James Bible. Be pure of heart! You cannot draw close to God through corruptible seed. The English Standard Version (ESV) is corruptible seed, which BJU uses, sells and promotes. Shame on Bob Jones University!!! God desires to be close to you friend, but you must first embrace the truth of the Gospel of free grace. We are saved by faith alone, without works of any sort (Romans 4:4-6). Your best human effort and goodness is filth to God (Isaiah 64:6). Marty Herron has never turned from his sins!!! And neither have I. And neither have you. Nor has anyone else. We are all either redeemed by the precious blood of Jesus, or else you are still wallowing in the Devil's hogpen of sin. All Marty Herron has done is take his sins underground, living above reproach, but Marty is still a swinging dirty sinner!!!

Oh, what's that, you want Scriptural support? You got it Chumley! 1st Timothy 5:24, “Some men's sins are open beforehand, going before to judgment; and some men they follow after.” We'll see what Marty Herron's Skelton Closet looks like in eternity, while he goes around hypocritically requiring everyone to turn from their sins to be saved. I cannot think of a worst crime against another human being, short of murdering them, then for a wicked selfish pastor like Gary Walton and Marty Herron to tell a hurting man like me that I am not allowed to attend Sunday church services. So I stay home on Sundays and watch The X-Files series and science fiction shows instead. Kindly, Fuddrucker them at Harvest! All I wanted was to quietly attend church services, but those religious cowards refused. What crappy pastors!

If I'm not right with God, then that is on Harvest's shameful pastors and foolish congregation who support them, because I haven't been allowed to attend church for 7 long years. My blood is on Marty Herron, Gary Walton and the entire Harvest Baptist Church of Guam. You guys define self-righteous hypocritical Pharisees!!! Romans 2:1 condemns you Harvest! Romans 1:1, “Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things.” What gives you the right to demand that other people “turn from their sins” to be saved (i.e., keep the law), when your lives are full of sin too? That is exactly what the Apostle Paul is saying in Romans 2:1. YOU BOB JONES RELIGIOUS HYPOCRITES!!! The whole idea of turning away from one's sins to be saved is flawed from beginning to end.

The Lordship Salvation crowd go around telling everyone to “repent and turn away from your sin to be saved,” but the Bible says in Romans chapter 2 that they are hypocrites. NO ONE has ever turned away from their sin. No one tries to live as upright as Muslims, yet they are all hellbound without Jesus Christ. If forsaking a lifestyle of sin brings salvation, then Judas should have been saved (Matthew 27:3). Judas even returned the 30 pieces of silver, knowing that he and the Pharisees had betrayed innocent blood. The Pharisees couldn't have cared less, just like the Bob Jones crowd today have betrayed innocent blood and couldn't care less. 

The truth means nothing to the Bob Jones social club. The accuracy of the Gospel means nothing to Harvest. The purity of the Holy Bible means nothing to Marty Herron. Gary Walton couldn't care less, while he spends the church's blood money at Home Depot. And I certainly mean nothing to any of them! Where dwelleth the love of God? (Romans 14:10). The Bob Jones crowd have no compassion, they're just a bunch of parasitical educators trained by academics, sucking a salary while the getting is good. God will have the ultimate say in all this, and their heads will roll (Romans 3:4).

Judas was a reformed man, he turned from his sins (Matthew 27:3), but he went to Hell forever. The Bible says Judas had a devil in him (John 6:70). Judas was one of Christ's very apostles, as close in a relationship as two people can become, yet they were light years apart. My point is that you can go to church every Sunday like Marty Herron and Gary Walton, and go through all the motions, even thinking you are close to God; and yet be so far away from God that Christ Himself will one day say the horrifying words to you: “I NEVER KNEW YOU” (Matthew 7:21-23). These people in Matthew 7:21-23 did many wonderful works and preached in Jesus' name. Yet Jesus denied knowing them. They failed to wholly rest in Christ, Who died as a sacrifice for our sins on the cross (John 6:40). Only those who completely REST in the name of Jesus will go to Heaven, and no one else!!!

The very idea that a person must forsake sinful living to be saved is rooted in self-righteousness. Pastor Herron, Gary Walton, Steve Pettit and Charles Phelps are looking inside themselves for righteousness, instead of wholly leaning on Jesus' name. You DON'T have to turn from anything to be saved except whatever has been hindering you from believing, which is UNBELIEF. To require a man to forsake his immoral behavior as a requirement to receive God's free gift of eternal life is to damn his soul to Hell forever. If you have turned from your sins to be saved, you might as well drive over a steep cliff at Glacier National Park in Montana to your death and go straight to Hell, because that is where you are headed friend.

Please understand that I do not write these articles to attack anyone, but to earnestly contend (fight) for the Christian faith (Titus 1:10-11; Ephesians 5:11; Jude 1:3). When men hurt me, deny me the opportunity to attend church, hinder me from finding a wife, and drive me away from my church family as an unwanted pest simply because I told THE TRUTH to help them, then I am most definitely going to preach against their wickedness! Something is wrong with Pastor Gary Walton. Something is wrong with the people at Harvest Baptist Church of Guam, when they permit Seventh-Day Adventist beliefs into their church. The truth matters folks, it really does! God desires to be close to you, but it must be on the basis of THE TRUTH. John 4:24, “God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.”
