Don't Let People Guilt-Trip You For Not Going To Church

Hebrews 10:23-27, “Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.”

We live in a world of self-righteous hypocrites. Sometimes religious people make me sick! Our text passage of Scripture from the New Testament book of Hebrews (particularly verse 25 about not forsaking the assembly of ourselves together) is perhaps the most abused and misused Bible verse today. I have had mean people cruelly throw this Bible verse in my face, trying to make me feel guilty for missing a church service due to my poor health, or for not going to church at all because I couldn't find an acceptable one to attend. That is a very ungodly thing to do to someone, guilt-tripping them.

According to PositivePsychology.com in the Netherlands...

Guilt tripping is a manipulative tactic where one person tries to make another feel guilty to influence their behavior or decisions. It often involves emotional pressure that targets the recipient's sense of responsibility or care for the person applying the guilt. SOURCE

A lot of religious people try to guilt-trip others to be unkind and a jerk. They should all SHUT UP in Jesus' name!

When I attended the Harvest Baptist Church on Guam in 2014, I stayed home the previous Sunday because my neck pain was overwhelming and I didn't sleep well at night. When a young Christian fella in the Navy asked where I was last Sunday, I told him the truth that I was in much neck pain. The jerk said, “Forsake not the assembling of ourselves together Brother!” What he said deeply hurt my feelings. What a selfish jerk! I am old enough to be his father. I am sick and tired of hypocrites! If you ever do that to someone, guilt-tripping them, you are the scum of the earth as a human being!

Several years ago I had another little tramp do the same thing to me. I was visiting the Lighthouse Baptist Church on Guam in 2018 for about a year. The young Christian woman asked where I was the previous Sunday and I told her the truth that I was at home in much pain and suffering. She looked down her long Pharisaical nose to condemn me, saying: “Well, we have a man in church that has high blood pressure, and he takes the same prescription medications as you do, and he is always here at church.” I wanted to call her a “stupid cold-hearted brat,” but I said nothing as a gentleman, knowing that she is immature as an adult. She had no idea what she was even talking about. In fact, we DON'T take the “same” prescription drugs, and how would she even know what medications we take? Listen dear reader, it is none of anybody's business who goes to church, or why someone stayed home, et cetera. People need to learn to mind their own business!

I have no doubt that some zealous churchgoer is going to criticize me for this article, but so be it, that doesn't mean that I am wrong. God understands each person's individual and unique situation. In his helpful book (that I cherish reading again and again), “I Never Knew You,” by Christian author Michael P. Bowen, he writes on page 115 that he cannot attend any of the churches in his town because they all preach a counterfeit plan of salvation...

According to many verses in the bible, especially those warnings God gave to us through Paul in the book of Galatians, you should never listen to anyone’s message that runs counter to the message given to us by Christ, and you should never attend a church where the pastor tells the flock that they must add works of discipleship to faith in Christ’s “finished work” as the way to enter heaven. That’s exactly the reason why I no longer attend any of the local churches in my current hometown. [emphasis added] —Michael P. Bowen, “I Never Knew You,” p, 115

For that very reason I have been expelled (kicked out) of the last five churches that I've attended, for merely TELLING THE TRUTH. Today's incompetent pastors are dingleberries!

Guilt-tripping is a form of emotional manipulation that can harm relationships and is not a healthy way to communicate. Ephesians 4:32, “And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.”  We should be forgiving, kind to one another, encouraging the saints to treat each other with compassion rather than using guilt to control or influence actions. I understand that there are many different scenarios, so I am not addressing every instance in this blog.

In 2014 I heard Pastor Marty Herron at the Harvest Baptist Church on Guam tell hundreds of church members one of the most shameful things that I have ever heard. He said, “Once people are offended and feelings are hurt, it's over!” That's holding a grudge! What Pastor Herron should have said is that even though we are all sinful humans, the Bible commands us to forgive, to be kind, and to love one another instead of holding grudges. Marty Herron was henpecked by the rich people in Harvest Baptist Church, under their wicked control.

I am writing this particular article to encourage anyone who like me, has had much difficulty finding a doctrinally sound local church to attend; and who like me, has health afflictions which cause them to need to be at home most of the time. After all, that is why I receive medical disability. Yet, there are many complete jerks in churches today who will selfishly berate, scold, tear down, guilt-trip and criticize you for your situation, having zero empathy for you. I have heard preachers say that if you have to crawl, don't miss church. I humbly disagree. In these modern times we have plenty of solid Bible preaching available on social media.

When you put someone down for missing church, putting the guilt-trip on them for their situation, the Bible likens you to a monster who takes away someone's warm coat in the winter, leaving them to freeze to death in the cold.  Proverbs 25:20, “As he that taketh away a garment in cold weather, and as vinegar upon nitre, so is he that singeth songs to an heavy heart.” That jerk at Harvest Baptist Church on Guam who guilt-tripped me for missing church was a perfectly healthy young man at the time, showing total disregard for my health afflictions. What a self-righteous hypocrite! Be nice to people.

And that young Christian woman at the Lighthouse Baptist Church on Guam who guilt-tripped me for missing church, she and her husband eventually quit going to church and stayed at home for years! What a little self-righteous hypocrite! To the best of my recollection, as a witness before God my Savior, I have never one time in my entire life guilt-tripped anybody for anything. If I have I am so sorry, but I don't think I have. I am pretty good at minding my own business. Proverbs 26:17, “He that passeth by, and meddleth with strife belonging not to him, is like one that taketh a dog by the ears.”

Sometimes people email me and ask, “Are you talking about me?” I never tell them because THEY KNOW if it's them. I tell them instead what I tell everyone: “If the shoe fits wear it!” If my preaching rings your bell, then I probably am talking about you. If it doesn't then don't worry about it and learn from other's mistakes and sins.

Don't Compare Yourself To Other Christians

I am not trying to upset or offend anybody, and if you are offended then you are missing the entire point of my sermon article. I am simply saying that we should mind our own business. What saith the Scripture?

2nd Corinthians 10:12, “For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.”

It is foolish to compare your life and circumstances to that of others. I used to feel bad when I compared myself to some of my peers that I graduated from Hyles-Anderson College with. Some of them are pastoring churches. Others are laboring on the mission field in foreign countries for Christ. Most of them have loyal wives by their side. But I have a website ministry that is not recognized as a legitimate ministry by most Christians. My wife divorced me in 2006 and left me all alone in my physical suffering and chronic pain.

That really depressed me, being alone and not having a recognizable ministry. If you look at church websites that link to other ministries, I can only think of ONE church website that lists my Jesus-is-Savior.com ministry, and that is the website of my long time ministry friend Pastor Max D. Younce (1935-2023). But God impressed upon my heart years ago that it doesn't matter what other people think, He is my only Judge (James 4:12). My website ministry work for Christ is exponentially reaching far more people than I ever could have as a church pastor or missionary to a foreign country. I am an evangelist to cyberspace, a missionary to the internet, and my ministry is 100% valid and recognized by Heaven's hosts.

I have been dealt different cards in life than others have. I grew up around Skid Row in Chicago, tagging along with my father who ministered to the bereaved, broken and destitute of life for over 30 years as a Skid Row Gospel preacher. That humbled me, allowing me to see where booze and sin can take a person, to the gutter! Thankfully, by God's grace, I have never drank a drop of booze, never smoked a cigarette, and have never taken any illegal drugs. I count myself very blessed, because many people have.

In 1992, I was severely rear-ended by a church bus that permanently misaligned my neck, leading to a diagnosis of Cervical Degenerative Disk Disease and Stenosis in 2004. Sadly, and painfully, I tumbled 15 feet down a conveyor slide at work in 2005, which worsened my injury, adding Radiculopathy to my list of afflictions. So, for a guy like me, God has given me the perfect ministry, that I can work on at home at my leisure. I often need to go lay down and rest.

By God's grace over the past 24 years, I figure I must have at least 50,000 hours invested into my website ministry. There have been at least three times that I remember, when I worked through for 37 hours straight, and thousands of days when I worked for 12 hours or more. It's hard to believe that there are 55,572 files just on my Jesus-is-Savior.com website; I've not been idle for 24 years. I give God alone all the praise, credit and glory (John 15:5).

So, I no longer compare myself to others, because it's simply not fair to myself. Everybody's situation, variables and plight in life is different. God is faithful (1st Corinthians 1:9).

Mind Your Own Business Friend

What do you care who comes to church and how often? What's it to you? You should mind your own business. My old boss used to wisely say: “If you've got enough time to watch what others aren't doing, then you must not have enough work to do yourself.” Amen to that! People should drive in their own lane and mind their own vehicle. Some of the most miserable, hateful and resentful people are the ones who always notice what everybody else is doing or not doing. Really, live your own life in obedience to the Lord Jesus Christ, and pray for others who are lagging behind in your opinion. It's not your jurisdiction to condemn others.

Ah, and then there's the religious hypocrite for a wife, who wickedly badgers her husband to go to church. I fully agree with Pastor Curtis Hutson, who teaches that if a Christian husband tells his wife to stay home with him from church, she should stay home. If you disagree with that, it is only because you have been adversely influenced by the evils of toxic feminism. Going to church makes you religious, it doesn't make you a good Christian.

I’ve been thinking about how feminism is destroying women and marriages. It’s everywhere now. I know a good man whose wife just left him. The guy would have done anything for her, bent over backwards, but she said she just wasn’t “happy.” So many women today have been sold the Devil's lies and they’re chasing something that doesn’t even exist. Many disgruntled wives are wearing rose-colored glasses, chasing unicorns and rainbows to nowhere. Proverbs 14:1, “Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands.”

With the blessing of the internet in these modern times it has never been easier to obey Hebrews 10:25b, “not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is...” It's not the same as physically attending a local church, I get that. But it is nevertheless possible to hear solid, fundamental, Christ-honoring, Bible preaching today via an internet connection. And you can tithe to a church online. And you can encourage and fellowship with the saints online. Praise God! So, you don't have to physically go into a concrete building somewhere to obey this Scripture.

That being said, please don't misunderstand me, I am a firm believer that everybody should attend a local Bible-believing, free grace Gospel only, inspired King James Bible only, sin-fighting, soulwinning, people-loving, separated, fundamentalist, New Testament church. Nothing can substitute for physically going to the House of God. I understand that only the believer's body is the temple of the indwelling Holy Spirit, but the local church is where we meet, the House of God.

Unfortunately, an increasing number of believers simply cannot find a doctrinally sound church in their local area to attend, and that's a big problem. It's becoming next to impossible anymore to find a Baptist church that doesn't preach the damnable heresies of Lordship Salvation (Calvinism) and Misunderstood Repentance (aka, the “repent of your sins” to be saved garbage). These are corrupt cults that you SHOULD NOT attend, nor even listen to, not for even one hour. Galatians 2:4-5, “And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage: To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.” Paul refused to hear the other side of the argument. False prophets are subverted of themselves, like the insane flat earth camp.

It is better to just stay home from church than to attend a cult where a counterfeit plan of salvation is preached, and the Devil's corruptible seed is used (i.e., the Devil's bibles).

So, please don't condemn me for my health afflictions if I stay home from church more than half of the time. You are wicked and a horrible person if you berate and guilt-trip anyone for missing church. What you ought to be doing is encouraging that person, praying for them and telling the individual (or family) that you love them in the Lord. Five minutes of praise will do more to help a person than a lifetime of criticism. Proverbs 27:21, “As the fining pot for silver, and the furnace for gold; so is a man to his praise.”

And please don't condemn someone for not going to church if all of the churches in their area are preaching damnable heresy! I tell you, you'd be ten thousand times better off staying home from church altogether, than to go to a cult that preaches Satan's fraud of Lordship Salvation, and the “repent of your sins” garbage to be saved that Ken Ham preaches; or they use the Devil's toxic modern polluted Bible perversions. RUN away quickly!

Furthermore, not everyone can drive for an hour to find a good church. I personally cannot drive for more than about 20 minutes due to my adverse health and prescription drug side effects, because I fall asleep behind the wheel. When I visited Tennessee in 2013, I fell asleep while driving from Knoxville to Nashville and I almost died, crashing my rent car into the roadway safety traffic barrier. Thankfully, those concrete safety walls are designed to lean back when you hit them, and toss your car's wheel back onto the roadway, which saved my life. I was lucky and blessed. My guardian angels were on the job watching over me that day! I couldn't believe that there was no damage to the car! That being said, I try not to drive more than short distances. So, I need to find a local church that is a short distance from me. I sure wish a New IFB church would come to Pensacola! The fields are ripe for harvest here!

Dear reader, my whole point in all that I have shared with you in this article is simply that you don't know what other people have to deal with. You don't know their whole story. You don't know what prescription medications they are taking, how many drugs, or how those various medications interact and impact that person's health, mind and life. You don't know their marital situation or family issues. Who am I, or who are you, to condemn others for staying home from church? Honestly, in view of today's pathetic church scene, I see a lot of people leaving the churches to find God. I am not kidding!

At present I am taking seven different prescription medications from two different doctors to control my Type II diabetes, triglycerides, neck pain, burning nerves and radiating sharp pain in my limbs. Thankfully, my A1C that was 10.8% in 2023 is now down at 5.5% (normal) thanks to my doctor. I cannot express in words how miserable I am, physically. The agonizing pain in my neck in a burning pain that radiates into my shoulders and upper back. It is debilitating. The entire right side of my body feels half asleep all the time, which feels like dead weight when I stand up to walk. I live in a lonely world of pain and discomfort. It is the “new norm.” God is good and I have no complaints. Pastor Jack Hyles is right that life is a veil of tears.

The sharp pain radiating down my right arm into my thumb is so awful at times. I love playing stringed musical instruments, but rarely feel the ambition to do so. I just need to often lay down and rest. Sadly, my own wife does not understand what I am suffering through, and she is unfairly demanding of me at times, lacking compassion and understanding to “put up with me.” Understandably, I get irritated and frustrated easily. That is why I strive to keep my life simple.

All I can do is take life one day at a time by God's amazing grace. I learned that we do not grow in strength as Christians, we grow in grace (2nd Peter 3:18). Not being able to obtain an adequate amount of prescription pain medication in Florida has made everything much more difficult for me. I am only provided 40 mg of OxyContin daily by my doctor, which is a joke compared to the 140 mg I received daily 15 years ago on Guam. I need at least 80 mg just to cope. Having only 40 mg a day is not near enough, but no one cares.

The federal and state governments certainly don't care about pain sufferers. The pain doctors are afraid of getting into trouble with the government, so they refuse to treat pain. Tyranny is rarely seen except by those who are oppressed by it. We are not anywhere near as "free" as we have been led to believe by the corrupt American media and White House. It is a shame that U.S. citizens suffering in pain are treated like criminals.

In conclusion, if you know a Christian who is not faithful to attend church, don't guilt-trip, berate, condemn or put them down. Instead, encourage them in the LORD by showing unconditional love toward them. How about giving them a big hug in the Lord? Cordially invite them to church, but don't pressure them. And if someone tells you that they have health problems, let them know you understand and and leave it alone. Pray for that individual. 1st Peter 4:8, “And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.” Please don't miss what the Bible just said... AND ABOVE ALL THINGS... love one another.

The Cult Of The Family

Matthew 10:37-38, “He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.”

The heathen secular world says, “Family is everything!” But is that what the inspired Holy Bible says? No, not at all. Jesus said in our text passage of Scripture, “He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.” The things of God must come first.

Umpteen Hollywood movies often show scenes where men who miss their child's birthday party because they're busy working are demonized as being bad fathers. The world worships the family life, but we are supposed to worship Jesus Christ. Luke 14:26, “If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.” Family is not everything!

Too many people in the heathen world worship their spouse. That is unscriptural. You should love your wife or husband, but you should love God more. Your love for Jesus Christ should be a greater priority than your love for anything or anyone else in this world. Family time ought not be a greater priority than serving God. I don't want my wife to love me more than anyone else. I want her to love God more, because if she loves God then she will submit to me and not sass me. She won't pursue her own selfish plans and ideas without me. She will obey her husband.

The Christian Life is a Matter of Priorities

Your priorities in family life should be:

1. Christ
2. your spouse
3. children

If you get those priorities wrong, you'll find misery. The children will someday grow up and leave home, and then what kind of marriage will you have left? A wife who puts her children before her husband is a fool. The man of the house should always eat first, then the kids.

Many Dad's are demonized by Hollywood movies for missing their child's birthday, because the man's boss demanded that he either come to work or be fired. Hollywood and the ungodly media continually attack and demean fathers, husbands and boys. There is a Satanic agenda at work in the United States to undermine male authority and masculinity in society. That same Satanic agenda wants to destroy femininity and female submission to ruin the family. The evils of feminism can be seen in the skyrocketing divorce rate today.

Beware of the evils of feminism! We are headed for disaster in this country when clowns like Kamala Harris are running for the office of U.S. President. There is a group of Satanists who want a female in the White House as U.S. President, and it will be the downfall of our nation. Isaiah 3:12, “As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.”

The day that a woman becomes our U.S. President will be the nails in our coffin as a country. And you can be assured dear reader that when the demon-possessed Democrats retake the White House in a few years that they'll bring back all of the demonic Diversity, Equality and Inclusion (D.E.I.) filth, transgender confusion and wickedness with a vengeance to undo all that President Trump has accomplished for good. I've never seen such insane hatred of a political figure as toward President Donald Trump because of what he stands for, decency and righteousness, even though he is an unsaved man with many faults.

I fully agree with the phenomenal quote made by The Godfather (played by actor Marlon Brando in the 1972 Hollywood movie of the same title): “A man who doesn't spend time with his family can never be a real man.” Yes, I agree. What saith the Scripture? 1st Timothy 5:8, “But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.” A man is expected by God to take care of his own family, and to spend quality time with them. So, obviously we have to set priorities and seek to have a balance in our life. God must always come first!

Family is not everything! To the heathen person family is everything. The inspired King James Bible teaches that obeying God is everything. Ecclesiastes 12:13, “Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.” God only knows how many sinners will miss Heaven someday because they were unwilling to break away from their family's religious tradition (Mark 7:9).

Your Family May Reject Your Faith in Jesus

By obeying God, it is quite possible that your own family may turn against you and despise your faith. Matthew 10:34-36, “Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.”

I once led a Hispanic man to the Lord at work about 30 years ago. His name was Moreno. Shortly thereafter he told me that his staunch Roman Catholic family had rejected him. Moreno said his own mother mocked him for becoming a born again Christian. He said that she made fun of born again Christians with their storefront hole-in-the-wall churches, in comparison to the great Catholic cathedrals with their exquisite marble, architectural elegance and massive wealth. I felt sorry for my Christian friend at work, that his own Catholic family had cruelly turned against his new found faith in Christ. This is what Jesus meant when He warned in Matthew 10:36, “And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.”

So, when your family turns against you dear Christian, are you going to quit on God? When your wife abandons you, as mine did me twice, will you abandon God? The biggest mistake you'll ever make is to center your life around your spouse and your children, because they will be gone someday without warning, and then you'll be alone. God must be not only first in our life, but the central theme of everything (Hebrews 12:2).

The disloyal wife of famous evangelist Charles Weigle (1871-1966) abandoned him. Charles Weigle's wife left him because like my wife, she wanted to go her own way to do her own thing, refusing to obey her husband. This personal betrayal deeply influenced his songwriting, particularly in his hymn titled: “No One Ever Cared for Me Like Jesus.”

Dr. Weigle was a Baptist evangelist and noted hymn writer of more than 1,000 hymns. He entered heaven's gates December 3, 1966 at age 95, from Chattanooga, Tennessee. After he was called to be an evangelist, his wife came to him one day and said: “I’m leaving, Charlie. I don’t want to live the life you are living. I want to go the other way—to the bright lights.” Their only child, a daughter, left with her. That very night Charles saw them off on a train to the other side of the country. Five years passed before he wrote another song, but God healed him. His wife died as a consequence of a life of sin. SOURCE

God is faithful (1st Corinthians 1:9). I actually learned this truth about 'The Cult Of Family' from my ministry friend Pastor Steven Anderson in his latest sermon titled: 'Nehemiah 4: Building And Battling.' I fully agree with Brother Anderson that the heathen world idolizes the family, but Jesus Christ has no place in their lives. This is why the world is in such a mess today.

 

Family Is Not Everything!

Just Because You're Married To A Hard Working Christian Man Doesn't Mean You'll Share In All His Rewards

1st Corinthians 3:6-8, “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. Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.”

I know this is kind of a strange title for a blog, but it's an important truth that I want to teach others. I used to think that if you're married to someone who works hard for the Lord, then that spouse will also have great rewards in Heaven. But then it occurred to me that the inspired Holy Bible does not teach that. In fact, not at all! What the Bible does teach is found in our text passage of Scripture from 1st Corinthians 3:8b, “...and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.”

Dear female reader, I don't care if your husband is the hardest work fella in town, you won't receive any rewards at the Judgment Seat of Christ if you are a lazy, unreliable, burden for a wife to your husband. God is not going to reward you for dragging down your husband emotionally, giving him a hard time, sassing him continually and making his life miserable. Serving your husband is the way that a wife serves God...

Ephesians 5:22-24, “Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.”

I know a Christian married couple. The man's wife is foolish. Whenever she gets angry at him, she goes to women's shelters for months and claims “abuse.” The man is not abusive toward her, quite the opposite. She is lazy and refuses to fulfill her duties in the marriage. Her husband has to correct her for leaving shoes, items and clothes in the middle of the floor. She is careless. Worse, his wife is rebellious and every time he corrects her (which he has a biblical right to do as her authority). She is defiant and punishes him by leaving for months at a time to go to shelters. Back centuries ago when people had marital struggles they had no choice but to tough it out, but that's not the case at all today. Many women are spoiled brats!

Her husband is a hard working fella in his work and ministry. I can assure you that his problematic wife will not share in his glory and rewards in Heaven someday, when all she did was make his life miserable. She never does his laundry. She rarely cooks him a decent meal. She has to be asked to do the things that a wife is supposed to do, but it goes back to her being as lazy as a hound. Laziness is a horrible sin!

Marriage is the only business contract where one party can fail to uphold their side and still receive benefits. Until marriage becomes a partnership and not a legal liability men will continue to keep saying, “No thanks!”

A Wife's Purpose is To Be Her Husband's 'Help Meet'

Dear female reader, if you are a wife it is YOUR JOB to be a help meet to your hubby. Genesis 2:18, “And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.” If you take issue with the biblical idea of your husband being your “boss,” then you need to get right with God. I say that humbly with kindness. I do not intend to be offensive, God knows my heart.

We have a serious problem in America today with feminism, which is rebellion against God-ordained authority in the home. What saith the Scripture? 1st Samuel 15:23, “For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king.” When you women mouth-off to your husband, sassing and making inflammatory remarks that push his buttons to anger him, you are on par with a witch who worships Satan! I didn't say that, your Creator did. The $64,000 question is: DO YOU CARE?

If at this point you are upset and asking, “Well what about my husband?,” then you really have some attitude issues that need to be addressed. I am being your friend. The main reason why so many married women are empowered, angry and rebellious today is simply because they can be. Our American culture has deteriorated over the past 75 years. Abortion is now legal. Homosexuality is everywhere in society today. Women only wear dental floss at the beach. The churches are empty because the pulpits are spiritually dead. Evil abounds.

U.S. women gained the right to vote with the ratification of the 19th Amendment on August 18, 1920. However, the struggle for women's rights began much earlier, with significant activism dating back to the mid-19th century. Now, I know that very few people will like or agree with what I am about to say, but it is 100% absolutely true nonetheless. I humbly think we were much better off when women had no rights.

Back in the old days of America men ran society, the way it ought to be. Women should have no place in politics. I realize that this statement will harelip every dog in the county, but God ordained that men and not women make societal decisions. God forbid the day when a rebellious feminist clown like Kamala Harris becomes our U.S. President (and she is talking about running again in 2028 for U.S. President). Isaiah 3:12, “As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.” I assure you that when the Democrats reclaim the White House, you will see evil flourish in our country like never before. They will bring back all the D.E.I. (diversity, equality and inclusion) perversion, transgender confusion and utter depraved wickedness! God's judgment will not sleep forever!

U.S. women did not have many legal rights until the late 19th and early 20th centuries. For example, women were largely considered property of their husbands and could not vote, own property, or access credit independently until various laws were enacted, such as the Married Women's Property Act in 1848 and the 19th Amendment in 1920. Like it or not, God wants men to lead society, the churches, the home and marriage. As Isaiah 3:12 warns, when women lead society bad things begin to happen and they ruin things! God said that!

I am not down on women, which some feminist is no doubt already accusing me of. I simply believe the inspired Holy Bible. 1st Timothy 5:14-15, “I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully. For some are already turned aside after Satan.” Again, like it or not, the Bible calls career when “turned aside after Satan.” God hates the vile shacking-up culture that bar hops from nightclub to nightclub, fornicating, having abortions and defying God.

A Rebellious Wife is Dead While She Liveth

I heard an interesting sermon today by Pastor Jack Hyles called: “Oh Brother, You're Inhuman.” I made this sermon excerpt from the message that I titled: “She Is Dead Living In Pleasure.” 1st Timothy 5:6, “But she that liveth in pleasure is dead while she liveth.” Dr. Hyles said this verse doesn't mean you're dead for drinking booze, stealing, smoking cigarettes, whoring around or committing other sins; but rather, it means if you are living outside of the will of God for your life, you are spiritually dead.

In the sermon, Pastor Hyles explains that there are three types of life:

1. plant (body)
2. animal (body & soul)
3. human (body, soul & spirit)

So, when we live outside of the will of God, we are spiritually dead and living at the same level as animals, who have no spirit. This is what Brother Hyles means by the interesting title of his sermon: “Oh Brother, You're Inhuman.”

God Will Only Reward You For Your Own Labors

1st Corinthians 3:8, “Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.”

I don't care how hard your husband works for the Lord Jesus Christ, you are only going to be rewarded ladies for YOUR OWN labors. So, yes, you will be rewarded in eternity for cleaning the house, doing the dishes, scrubbing toilets, mopping floors, carpet shampooing, loving on your hubby, spending hours preparing decent home cooked meals, washing and drying the clothes, helping the children with their homework, feeding the family's pet dog, praying, sewing, and a hundred other duties of a homemaker. It's all a part of being a HELP MEET to your husband. God takes this matter of a wife submitting to her husband VERY seriously...

Ephesians 5:22-24, “Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.”

Just because you are married to a Christian husband who labors night and day for Christ doesn't guarantee you rewards in Heaven ladies. The inspired Holy Bible is very plain that we will all be rewarded only for OUR OWN labors done for Christ. Since the Scripture plainly teaches that younger women (i.e., any woman of child bearing age) should be married with children and a homemaker, then that is God's perfect will for every young woman's life.

Every Christian wife and mother in Heaven will only receive rewards for what she did to help her husband and obey him. A wife that leaves her husband yet does many good works for others won't be rewarded by God because she was A.W.O.L. It is no different than if a military soldier abandons his designated post. That soldier can go do great things for others. He may go home and help his mother work around the house. He may go and save someone's life. But he will not be rewarded by the U.S. military because he went A.W.O.L. (absent without leave). A wife who abandons her husband is A.W.O.L. and won't receive any rewards from God.

There's No Greater Role Than Being a Homemaker

I read about a young Christian lady many years ago who chose not to get married or have children. Instead, she opted to work as the lifelong secretary for an evangelist. A doctor had proposed to her for marriage, but she turned him down. I personally don't like that at all. In fact, it bothers me a lot. That well-known preacher was married with a wife at home for companionship, but he allowed his young attractive secretary to forgo a happily married life with children and grandchildren.

After diligently working for that evangelist for over 40 years, the elderly preacher died when his secretary was 65 years old. She spent the last 27 years of her life all alone, with no children and no grandchildren. That selfish evangelist has six children and 28 grandchildren. In my humble opinion, God did not create a young woman to be the lifelong secretary for a preacher. I truly feel sorry for that secretary. I'm sure that she would disagree, but that is how I feel.

Call me whatever you want dear reader, but I am old fashioned and biblical in my mindset. I tell people that I am as narrow-minded as the inspired King James Bible. I firmly still believe in 2026 that a woman's place is in the home.

According to the BBC, women in the workplace, particularly those who achieve promotions, are statistically more likely to experience divorce compared to their male counterparts. This phenomenon is attributed to the stress and changing dynamics in relationships that arise from shifts in economic and social roles. No wonder the Bible calls career females “turned aside after Satan.” The inspired Word of God uses some powerful language that is no doubt highly offensive to feminists today. According to the Wheatley Institute in Utah, married mothers with children are TWICE as likely to be “VERY HAPPY” than single childless women.

God Uses Only Bad People

1st Corinthians 1:25-29, “Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: That no flesh should glory in his presence.”

I heard a life changing sermon today by Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001)...

God Uses Only Bad People

“God may allow sometimes evil to bring about good, but God never purposes anybody to do wrong to do something that's right. He never does at all. It never is the purpose of God to do wrong. Never!” —Pastor Jack Hyles, “God Uses Only Bad People”

“You'll never be happy; never, never, never, never, never be happy 'til you find the will of God and the purpose for your life and get there and stay there.” —Pastor Jack Hyles, “God Uses Only Bad People”

“God doesn't need beautiful girls, He needs dedicated girls.” —Pastor Jack Hyles, “God Uses Only Bad People”

“God uses morons.” —Pastor Jack Hyles, “God Uses Only Bad People”

“You know, when God had changed our nation and had sent great revival in our nation, He never has taken a man out of seminary to do it.” —Pastor Jack Hyles, “God Uses Only Bad People”

“Billy Sunday, never went to school. Billy Sunday was never ordained. Do you know why? He flunked the ordination test.” —Pastor Jack Hyles, “God Uses Only Bad People”

“God uses little people . . . God uses the nobodies.” —Pastor Jack Hyles, “God Uses Only Bad People”

The Tragic End Of 'Queen' Frontman Freddie Mercury

1st John 2:22-23, “Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also.”

Rock band 'Queen' frontman Freddie Mercury (real name: Farrokh Bulsara) sadly died of A.I.D.S. in 1991 at only age 45. Mercury had homosexual lovers all round the world. Even more tragic is that Freddie Mercury almost assuredly died in his sins without Jesus Christ...

Freddie Mercury’s Family Faith: The Ancient Religion of Zoroastrianism

by Vasudha Narayanan | November 3, 2018

Professor of Religion, University of Florida

In the Freddie Mercury biopic, “Bohemian Rhapsody,” there’s a scene in which a family member scolds Mercury.

“So now the family name is not good enough for you?”

“I changed it legally,” Mercury responds. “No looking back.”

It might come as a surprise to some that Freddie Mercury was born Farrokh Bulsara. He came from a Parsi family that had roots in India and he was a Zoroastrian by faith.

In the world religion courses I teach at the University of Florida, we discuss Zoroastrianism.

Fleeing religious persecution from Muslims in Persia sometime between the seventh and 10th centuries, the Zoroastrians settled in India, where they came to be called “Parsis.”

Like Freddie Mercury, they worked to integrate into their new surroundings. Yet they also stayed true to the values, beliefs, and practices of their religion, which many scholars say had an influence on Christianity, Islam, and Judaism.
A precursor for Christianity?

The Zoroastrian faith is one of the world’s oldest religions, one that could date back as far as 1200 B.C.

Zoroaster, a prophet who lived in modern-day Iran, is viewed as the founder of Zoroastrianism. READ MORE

The inspired Word of God is very clear that there is only ONE WAY to the Father, which is through faith in His only begotten (biological) Son, Jesus Christ. John 14:6, “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” The Father's will concerning redemption is that every human being rest in Christ's sacrificial death on the cross, burial and resurrection (the Gospel) as full payment for our sins (1st Corinthians 15:1-6). There is no other way to Heaven (Acts 4:10-12).

In a bizarre 1973 song titled, “Jesus,” the band Queen (formed in London in 1970) sing the lyrics: “All going down to see the Lord Jesus.” Talk about strange and confusing! In itself, that song in no way indicates what the individual band members believed concerning the afterlife. Legendary Queen guitarist Brian May (born 1947) had this to say about the mysterious song...

“Freddie was obviously born a Parsi into the Zoroastrian faith, but he also attended a school in Zanzibar which I believe was a Christian school," Brian May told Mojo magazine. "The workings of Freddie's mind were interesting and sometimes obscure. I don't know where his lyrics for Jesus came from anymore than I know where 'Bohemian Rhapsody' came from.” SOURCE

We have no public statements from Freddie Mercury to lead us to believe anything other than that he perished in his false Zoroastrian religion. John 6:40, “And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.” Jesus because Queen released a song called “Jesus” in 1973, eighteen years before his premature death caused by his sodomite deathstyle, doesn't mean he was a Christian.

In Queen's 1975 famous song, “Bohemian Rhapsody,” Freddie Mercury writes in the lyrics: “Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me, for me!” That's no different than the band members of Black Sabbath all wearing cross necklaces. So also did Ozzy Osbourne wear cross necklaces throughout his Satanic career of glorifying sin, shame and the Devil. The Devil's crowd do this deliberately to confuse young people. Satan is the author of confusion. 

During U.S. President Joe Biden's 4-year reign of debauchery, incompetence, shame and wickedness, the U.S. federal government strongly promoted demonic transgendered confusion in public schools nationwide. I shudder and cringe to think what evils the Democrats will return our nation to when they retake the White House in a few years. All that Diversity, Equality and Inclusivity (DEI) Satanic garbage is coming back, I assure you. Our children deserve better! God deserves better!

In a 2022 book titled, “The Stone Age: Sixty Years of the Rolling Stones,” by music journalist Lesley-Ann Jones, she reveals that The Rolling Stones homosexual frontman Mick Jagger had ungodly sexual flings with band guitarist Keith Richards, and former guitarist David Bowie. That is gross and sickening! If you don't think homosexuality is gross, you are not right with God. I noticed many years ago that even the heathen world are embarrassed by sodomites, so they will often refer to a homosexual like Mick Jagger as being “bisexual.”

The word homosexual is much more embarrassing than bisexual, because even the heathen world thinks there's something wrong with a homosexual man who doesn't still like women. The issue arises because of different understanding of the term homosexual. Technically, a “homosexual” is someone who only has sex with men, but to most people a “homosexual” simply refers to someone who has sex with their own gender.

In truth, all bisexuals are homosexuals with all the negative and shameful stigma that should go along with that sinful designation. There has been a Satanic agenda at work for the past half century that is trying to remove the stigma, shame and negative implications of being a homosexual. In short, those wicked reprobates are trying to change the laws of nature.  ...

Romans 1:24-27, “Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.”

Please understand dear reader that I do not hate anybody. I believe homosexuals can still be saved, and that God loves them unconditionally. Christ died for all sinners (1st John 2:2). God hates the sin, not the sinner. We should never bash the homosexual community, but Bible preachers should preach against the sin of homosexuality, just as he must expose all sins. 1st Timothy 5:20, “Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear.”

It is not my place as a child of God to condemn anybody. James 4:12, “There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou that judgest another?” The Bible DOES teach us to judge as believers, but to judge righteous judgment. John 7:24, “Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.” That is to say, our opinions should always be brought into line (agreement) with the inspired Word of God. Any opinion that goes against God's opinion is heresy.

My heart goes out to Freddie Mercury, because unless there was a miraculous death bed conversion, he went to burn in Hell forever. John 8:24, “I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.”

The inspired King James Bible teaches in 2nd Peter 3:9, “The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” God does not want even the worst sinner on the planet to spend eternity suffering in a burning furnace in Hell. God wants all humans to repent (i.e., change our mind) from the sin of unbelief, to believing on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ (Acts 16:30-31). That is the only means to be born again.

Please understand that I didn't write this blog to cast a negative reflection upon Freddie Mercury, despite the fact that he lived a Sodomistic reckless life of open wickedness and disregard for God his Creator. I wrote this ministry blog in hope of reaching YOU dear friend for Christ. If you have never been born again, then please do so now before it is too late.

It is too late for Freddie, wherever he went in eternity, but it's not too late for you dear reader. At the heathen world's funerals, they always foolishly assume that “he's in a better place now” or “she's in a better place now,” with total disregard for the Holy Scripture. What saith the Scripture? Revelation 20:15, “And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.” Please make sure that you've been born again.

God Cares About The Outside As Much As The Inside

Proverbs 7:10, “And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart.”

God wants the OUTSIDE to show, but He wants the outside shows to be on the INSIDE. God wants both the inside and outside to be consistent. There is a hypocrisy about just wanting the inside to be right, but not the outside. If either the inside or the outside don't coincide, there is hypocrisy.

Hypocrisy has to barrels to the gun. There are two types of religious hypocrites:

1. The man who is seemingly righteous on the outside, but on the inside is unrighteous. He is acting out something that he is not.
2. The man who has righteousness on the inside, but he doesn't show it on the outside. He is deep on the inside, but doesn't say it.

HYPOCRISY is when people get the wrong impression about who you are. God is just as concerned about the OUTSIDE, as He is about the INSIDE.

Liberals say, “We should accept a man as he is.” Okay, but how do we know what he is if it doesn't show? If God is not concerned about the outside, then why does He spend so much time in the Holy Bible talking about the outside? The outside conveys to others what we are. The inside should measure up to the outside, and vise versa. Either without the other is just as much hypocrisy. If a pastor's wife wears pants to look like a harlot, but she is not a harlot, she is a hypocrite! God is concerned by what you wear ladies.

Romans 12:1-2, “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”

Notice the word “bodies.” The word “conformed” (Greek: suschēmatizō) means “fashion.” Do not put the clothing of this wicked world upon your BODY! God is concerned about how we dress, how we appear and how we wear our hair.

No group negatively influenced a generation with the impact as did the wicked Beatles in the 1960's. They promoted fornication, revolution, substance abuse, communism, false religion and rebellion. The Beatles single-handedly turned a generation away from Christianity. Sir Paul McCartney boasted on national TV on The David Letterman Show of having their manager bring them two prostitutes each, to their hotel rooms while performing in Las Vegas. That is evil! Proverbs 14:9, “Fools make a mock at sin: but among the righteous there is favour.”

I am going to go to seed as a fundamentalist King James Bible preacher in this matter of women wearing their wicked pants. A Christian lady ought not wear pants in public. Ladies, conceal don't reveal! 1st Corinthians 6:19, “What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.” Jesus paid for our sins with His precious blood. We belong to God!

Now, we know that nothing is owed on our behalf in exchange for the free gift of eternal life. God offers salvation as a completely free gift to whosoever wants it. All you need to do to have eternal life is simply by faith (taking God at His written Word) accept Christ's sacrifice on the cross as full payment for your sins, believing that Jesus was buried, but then three days later He physically ressurected from the dead. This is 'THE GOSPEL' (1st Corinthians 15:1-6).

It is just as weird and wrong in God's sight for a woman to put on a pair of pants, as it would be for a man to put on a dress. If it is wrong (and it is) for men to wear dresses (women's attire), then it is equally wrong for women to put on men's clothes. We've all got to face God someday, and we all should desire to please our Creator.

Romans 14:10-12, “But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.” By the way, “judge thy brother” in Verse 10 forbids condemning each other on a personal basis, but this does not apply to the preacher in the pulpit who is exposing sin. It is every preacher's duty to PREACH THE WORD, which includes rebuking sin. 1st Timothy 5:20, “Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear.” Some people like to wrest the Holy Bible in a wicked attempt to justify their sinning. Outside of the pulpit I am a dirty sinner just like you and anybody else, but inside the pulpit I am a soldier for Christ fighting the good fight of faith.

Activist Jerry Rubin Told The Truth

Jerry Clyde Rubin (1938–1994) was an American social activist, anti-war leader, and counterculture icon during the 1960s and early 1970s. Jerry Rubin said that long hair was started by the hippies as a statement of their revolution! The phrase "everywhere we go our hair tells people where we stand" reflects Jerry Rubin's belief in the power of personal expression and appearance as a form of political statement. Rubin was known for using unconventional methods, including his appearance, to convey his anti-establishment views during the 1960s counterculture movement.

“Young kids identify short hair with authority, discipline, unhappiness, boredom, rigidity, hatred of life - and long hair with letting go. Wherever we go, our long hair tells people where we stand on Vietnam, Wallace, campus disruptions, dope. We're living commercials for the revolution. Long hair is the beginning of our liberation from the sexual oppression that underlies the whole military society.” [emphasis added] SOURCE

Need I say more? All you ungodly pastor's wives who wear your worldly pants, you are a WALKING COMMERCIAL FOR FEMINISM!!! You are a walking commercial for sexual liberation, depravity and immodesty. GET RIGHT WITH GOD FAMILY BAPTIST CHURCH IN PENSACOLA!!! Their wicked leaders actually kicked me and my wife out of their church in June of 2025 over the issue of modesty. They found my fundamentalist website ministry and it greatly offended them. They are ungodly neo-evangelicals and I am a God-fearing fundamentalist! They despise me for it! They hate me without a cause for my beliefs. They should listen to Jerry Rubin if they don't believe me...

“Young kids identify short hair with authority, discipline, unhappiness, boredom, rigidity, hatred of life - and long hair with letting go.” SOURCE

Isn't that something? The same exact thing can be said about women wearing pants. The ungodly heathen world has more Horsesense than neo-evangelical Christians today! Without speaking a single word, a woman wearing pants declares her female liberation, rebelling against God's high moral standards. It matters how we dress, look and behave!

The first thing long-haired hippies say is, “Well Jesus had long hair!” No, He didn't! Did you see the Kodak camera that someone used to photograph Jesus? No, I didn't think so. Some ungodly long-haired artist painted Jesus with long hair. When African American artists paint Jesus, they portray Him as being dark skinned. NO ONE knows what Jesus looked like, but if He wore long hair, the Apostle Paul said it would have been shameful (1st Corinthians 11:14-15). Leonardo Da Vinci painted Jesus with short hair, and so did Michelangelo. All Roman statues and busts of their emperors show them with SHORT HAIR.

Furthermore, some people claim that like Samson Jesus took a Nazarite vow. I mean, Jesus was from Nazareth, right? We know that Jesus could not have taken a Nazarite vow because He drank grape juice, and Samson was forbidden to drink grape juice his entire life as part of his Nazarite vow. Jesus did not take a Nazarite vow. Jesus had short hair.

Jerry Rubin nailed it, the OUTSIDE matters! Everywhere you go ladies, you are a walking commercial for the Devil when you wear pants, bikinis, halter tops and short skirts. Everywhere you go, your immodest attire tells people where you stand! And they know that I am right at Family Baptist Church in Pensacola, which is why they felt convicted and kicked us out of their worldly social club. Both pastors' Brad and his Dad Bobby Moffett's wives wear pants. SHAME! 

In the 45 months that I attended Family Baptist Church, I never once mentioned anything about my beliefs concerning women wearing pants, because what they do is none of my business. I am a gentleman. But as a fundamentalist Bible preacher I take a biblical stand on social media against Christian females wearing pants in public, and it ate them like cancer. My very presence in their so-called “church” was like God showing up, which made them feel guilty. It wasn't about me, it was about them because they were living in sin. Listen dear reader, if you live godly in Christ Jesus the world (and worldly churchgoers) will persecute you (2nd Timothy 3:12). Neo-evangelicals HATE fundamentalists!!!

Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001) said the same thing during the worst attack against his ministry in 1989...

“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 they'll destroy Hyles-Anderson College; and their effort is to destroy the First Baptist Church of Hammond, Indiana; and I'll go to the finish before I'll let it happen! That's what's going on!” —Dr. Jack Hyles, “Weathering The Storm!”

I have been sinfully kicked out of the last few churches that I've attended, because they are wicked neo-evangelicals and my fundamentalist website ministry woefully offended them. Those shameful churches are; namely, the Harvest Baptist Church on Guam, Campus Church at Pensacola Christian College, Smyrna Baptist Church in Pensacola and Family Baptist Church in Pensacola. God alone will be their Judge! I have faithfully told THE TRUTH! All four of the disgraced churches that I've just mentioned preach the Devil's lie of Lordship Salvation!!!

It is becoming almost impossible anymore to find a decent church to attend. They're all wrong on repentance and therefore, the Gospel. They have low moral standards. The music they bring into the church is worldly and lame at best. The uncaring attitudes of their pastors and their wives is shameful. There is little genuine love for truth or people in today's dead churches!

Dear reader, God cares about the OUTSIDE just as much as He does the INSIDE, and He cares about the INSIDE just as much as the OUTSIDE. Let us strive not to be HYPOCRITES!

Romans 12:1-2, “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”

I have written this blog while listening to Dr. Jack Hyles' 1971 sermon titled: 'Should Men Have Long Hair?' I thank God for Brother Hyles and every fundamentalist Bible preacher like him who stands for truth, ethics and righteousness. Thank you for reading my ministry blog.

Matthew 8:16-17 Does Not Guarantee Physical Healing

Matthew 8:16-17, “When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick: That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.”

Someone sent me this ridiculous video today after reading my article about my chronic neck pain, burning nerves and bodily afflictions...

This Prayer in Matthew DESTROYS Every Sickness (Pray This Daily)

(THIS VIDEO IS FALSE DOCTRINE!!!)

Kindly, this video is Charismatic junk theology. The Apostle Paul who once healed the sick in the power of Jesus lost his power by the end of the New Testament. 2nd Timothy 4:20, “Erastus abode at Corinth: but Trophimus have I left at Miletum sick.” So, it isn't always God's will to heal the sick. Healing is not always guaranteed.

The saint's body won't be redeemed until the Rapture. Romans 8:22-23, “For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.”

Matthew 8:16-17 does not guarantee healing for everyone; it shows that Jesus healed many during His time, but it does not promise that all will be healed today. The understanding of healing in this context is often debated, with many believing it refers more to spiritual healing than physical healing.

The creator of this video ignores John 15:24, “If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.” Jesus did works (miracles) that NONE OTHER MAN DID to confirm His Messiahship. No saint has this power today. We can influence and reach far more people with the Gospel than Jesus did, and in that sense do greater works than Christ did, but NO ONE today can heal amputees, raise the dead or empty hospitals of the sick.

John 15:24, “But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.”

One day at the Rapture, Jesus will give every born again saint a resurrected immortal body, fashioned like unto His glorified body (Philippians 3:21; 1st Corinthians 15:51-58). Kindly said, what this video is horribly teaching is dangerous, offering false hope to people who are sick, suffering in pain and hurting. Suffering is as much a part of the Christian life as salvation itself. It is God's will for us to suffer in this earthly life... 

Philippians 1:29-30, “For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake; Having the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now hear to be in me.”

We've got enough Benny Hinn nuts in the world who offer false hope to his victims. The 700 Club have been raking in trillions of dollars for decades, using Satanic clairvoyance through the television to offer false hope of healing to their millions of victims. Those evil money hungry scammers all belong in prison! They are already damned of God according to 2nd Peter 2:1-3. 

In this heretical video, it is very wrong for the narrator to lead viewers to pray a prayer assuming that God will automatically heal you because you commanded God to do it. No Scripture permits this. Praying such nonsense is optimism, not biblical faith. Faith is humbly asking God to remove your thorn in the flesh, but if it is not God's will to do so, you won't be healed. James 5:14-16 teaches that the prayer of faith shall heal the sick, but we know by comparing Scripture with Scripture that this passage does not guarantee bodily healing.

The Bible is full of people who died premature deaths (Rachael, David, John the Baptist, James at age 40, David and Bathsheba's baby, Trophimus, et cetera). Granted, the redemptive suffering of Jesus at Calvary is the foundation and source of every blessing from God, whether spiritual or physical. It’s a serious mistake to think every blessing Christ secured through his redemptive suffering will be ours at this present time.

All such blessings shall indeed be ours, but let us not expect—far less demand—that we now experience the fullness of blessings God clearly reserved for Heaven in the age to come (Revelation 7:15–17; 21:3–4). Are these healings, performed by Jesus in Matthew 8:16-17, the result of the atonement? Yes. To whatever degree we experience healing in this life, it is the fruit of Christ’s atoning death. But it doesn’t necessarily follow that where there is atonement there is always guaranteed immediate healing.

This passage in Matthew 8:16-17 affirms that whatever healing occurs is indeed a result of Christ’s redemptive work. But it doesn’t necessarily mean that healing will always occur now as a result of that work. This is proper Bible exegesis that I have given you dear reader. Physical healing is not always guaranteed in this temporal lifetime on earth.

Certainly, we should never cease to pray for the sick to be healed. We should also give thanks that there is bodily healing for us through, or because of, the atonement of Jesus Christ. And we should acknowledge that whatever healing and health we experience now is a blessing that flows from Calvary’s cross. But let us also remember there are certain blessings God intends to bestow in their perfect fullness only when the Lord Jesus Christ returns.
