I love and respect Pastor Anderson tremendously. We don't agree on everything, just like you and I dear reader won't agree on everything. That is human. Brother Anderson has a right to believe and preach what he believes God wants him to say, and I respect that.
In 2025, the Faithful Word Baptist Church in Tempe, Arizona, led 10,121 souls to Jesus Christ. Pastor Anderson personally led 182 people to Christ. I thank God for Brother Anderson and his soulwinning ministry. We are laborers together with God (1st Corinthians 3:7-9). Gotta love faithful soulwinners!
Pastor Anderson has stepped on my toes at times, and I his, and that is okay. We're both mature enough in the Lord to understand that no two fundamentalist Bible preachers agree on everything. Dr. Jack Hyles used to wisely say that there are more opinions per square foot at Hyles-Anderson College probably more than anywhere else in the world. That being said, we do agree on the two big "deal breakers" (as Pastor Anderson rightly calls them, which is: 1) The inspiration of the King James Bible; and 2) A free grace plan of salvation (aka, "easy believism"). All other doctrines are minor issues.
I agree with Pastor Anderson that those preachers (e.g., Peter S. Ruckman, William P. Grady, David A. Hoffman and Robert Breaker) who teach multiple plans of salvation are damnable heretics! Pastor Hoffman in his 'The Common Man's Reference Bible' for 1st Corinthians 15:1-4 literally teaches that there are SEVEN plans of salvation. That's crazy!
I also agree with Brother Anderson that most believers who ascribe to a pre-Trib Rapture haven't done their homework, they are merely following what their pastor told them. And likewise, the same problem holds true of the New IFB as well. Sadly, 95% of churchgoers merely believe what they hear and go along with whatever their leader says, which is why over 90% of all Baptist churches today have been woefully corrupted with the deadly false teachings of Misunderstood Repentance (i.e., turn from your sinning to be saved) and Lordship Salvation (i.e., mixing works with grace; combining service with salvation). These are both damnable false teachings, doctrines of devils.
As Bible preachers we are continually challenging our followers to do their own Bible study and homework, so they can KNOW for themselves why they believe what they believe. I can respect someone who ascribes to a pre-Wrath Rapture position, just so long as they can take an inspired Holy Bible and show me why they believe as they do, even though I am strongly pre-Trib in my faith.
I also fully agree with Pastor Anderson that Dispensational teaching is heresy (all of the nuts I mentioned earlier in the Ruckman camp are dispensationalist wackos). Simple Scripture passages such as Acts 10:43, Romans 3:19-23, 4:4-7 and Galatians 1:6-9 prove that NO ONE has ever been saved by works, which would have made salvation by debt that God owed (Romans 4:4); instead of by grace alone through faith alone. I detest manmade theology and manmade dispensationalism, which just confuse the Bible study rather than edify.

Pastor Jack Hyles exposes Dr. Peter Ruckman's heresy on multiple plans of salvation...
“And I'm sick up to there, with people talking about three or four plans of salvation. Now you hear me and hear me well. And if you don't believe this, and you teach in our schools, get out! John the Baptist preached the same Gospel that Paul preached. And people will get saved in the Millennium the same way they get saved tonight. Never has been but one plan of salvation. Never will be but one plan of salvation. Why don't you decide to put up all those books by a bunch of pinkos and read the Bible. And I'll fight you to the finish over that! I'll close the doors of Hyles-Anderson College before we'll preach that kind of garbage. We'll padlock the doors! I'm sick of it! I hate it! And beside that, don't like it. That college wasn't put out there to preach a bunch of hyper-dispensationalism!” —Pastor Jack Hyles, “He Purposed In His Heart"
Here's a shocking heretical excerpt from Ruckman's sermon titled, "Repentance," in which you can hear him listing all the sins you must forsake to be saved. What an ignorant unlearned fool! Tragically, I am fully convinced that Peter Ruckman is burning in Hell forever.
Right doctrine matters!
I heard Pastor Anderson today in a sermon exposing "Hypostatic Union" and "Divine Simplicity," two complicated theological rabbit trails that lead nowhere—blatant hogwash, tomfoolery, balderdash, poppycock and ineffable nonsense. Just give me the old flat-black 66 — the inspired King James Bible. Thank you for reading my ministry blog. Jesus is precious!!!
