Beware Of False Prophet Jordan Riley On YouTube

Galatians 3:1-2, “O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you? This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?”

Kindly said, Lordship Salvation is a gross perversion of God's grace, which Jordan Riley has been caught up into. Jordan makes money from his website, YouTube channel and other social media sites. What saith the Scripture? Matthew 7:15, “Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.”

Jordan Riley in his list of 15 pastors that he recommends endorses damnable false prophet John MacArthur (1939-2025). Pastor MacArthur preached a counterfeit plan of salvation.

Sadly, Jordan Riley also preaches a counterfeit plan of salvation...

“What Must I Do To Be Saved | What is The Gospel”

THIS IS A FALSE GOSPEL BY JORDAN RILEY!!!

I am so tired of preachers misinterpreting 2nd Corinthians 5:17 to mean that every saved person must live a “radically transformed life” (as Jordan says in his video) to prove you are really saved.

Pacific Garden Mission in Chicago and their corrupt 'UNSHACKLED' radio program are horribly guilty of doing this, lying to their listeners, wresting 2nd Corinthians 5:17, “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” To the unlearned Bible student, this passage may be misinterpreted to mean that your life must change to prove you're saved. But that is not what this passage means, not even close. The Scripture is simply teaching that when you get saved God indwells and seals you with His blessed Holy Spirit. You have a new nature in Christ, but the enemy of your old untamable flesh is still present (Romans 7:14-25).

Your Salvation Did Not Change You A Bit

One of my favorite sermons by Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001) is titled: 'Your Salvation Did Not Change You A Bit.' In his sermon, Dr. Hyles likens getting saved to when the First Baptist Church of Hammond purchased a former Strip Club down the street. At the time of the purchase (the new birth), there was a transfer of ownership. When you come to Christ by faith to be saved, there is a transfer of ownership from Satan to God. But when the church bought the strip club, it hadn't been renovated yet. The building still had the stripper's platform and pole, the bar and dirty lewd images on the wall. The acquired building needed to be renovated.

The same is true with getting saved. The only thing that you receive at salvation is the gift of the indwelling Holy Spirit (Romans 8:9; 1st John 3:24). Your character hasn't changed one iota. You are still the exact same sinner, but now you are God's redeemed child. 1st Peter 2:2 teaches to grow on the milk of the Word. 2nd Peter 3:18 teaches to grow in the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ. If a local church merely preaches the Gospel to get sinners saved, but fails to mentor them so that their lives can be renovated and made useful for God's purpose, then that church hasn't fulfilled 'The Great Commission' (Matthew 28:19-20).

The ONLY thing that changes when you come to Jesus Christ in faith to be born again is that you receive God's gift of the indwelling Holy Spirit. There has been a transfer of ownership from Satan to God. But now this new babe in Christ needs to be renovated with the inspired Word of God (John 17:17). It is the church's job to mentor new converts according to 'The Great Commission' in Matthew 28:19-20. The sad truth is that there are carnal Christians everywhere who don't attend church. All it would require is for another believer to care enough to go knock on their door to invite them back to church.

Today's churches are pathetic! They've dropped the ball for Christ, failing to go out into the highways and hedges with the Gospel of free grace. I am talking about biblical soulwinning. Your salvation did NOT change you a bit. You need to grow in the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ by feeding on the milk of God's inspired Word (1st Peter 2:2; 2nd Peter 3:18). Without the love and support of a local caring Bible-believing church, lost sinners won't come to Christ, and what converts that do exist will continue to languish in mediocrity and carnality. We have dropped the ball as Christians!

Salvation Versus Service

Pilgrim's Progress author John Bunyan said it best, I humbly think...

“If you do not put a difference between justification wrought by the man Christ without and sanctification wrought by the Spirit of Christ within, you are not able to divide the Word aright; but contrariwise, you corrupt the Word of God, and cast stumbling blocks before the people.” —John Bunyan (1628-1688)

Pastor M.R. DeHaan (1891-1965) said it very well...

“There is a vast difference between coming to Jesus for salvation and coming after Jesus for service. Coming to Christ makes one a believer, while coming after Christ makes one a disciple. All believers are not disciples. To become a believer one accepts the invitation of the Gospel, to be a disciple one obeys the challenge to a life of dedicated service and separation. Salvation comes through the sacrifice of Christ; discipleship comes only by sacrifice of self and surrender to His call for devoted service. Salvation is free, but discipleship involves paying the price of a separated walk. Salvation can't be lost because it depends upon God's faithfulness, but discipleship can be lost because it depends upon our faithfulness.” —Pastor M.R. DeHaan, “Hebrews”; Zondervan Publishing House; 1959 (p. 117)

The heresy of "Lordship Salvation" wickedly combines and mixes service (discipleship) with salvation (sonship). We must always keep these two things separate lest we corrupt the Gospel and confuses people. Right doctrine matters!

RUN from Jordan Riley's dangerous theology, because he will lead you into Hell with himself.
