Pacific Garden Mission Preaches A Counterfeit Gospel

1st Corinthians 15:1-4, “Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:”

I am horrified lately as I listen to 'UNSHACKLED' radio, which is produced by the Pacific Garden Mission in Chicago. Tragically, neo-evangelicals with their demonic Lordship Salvation have infiltrated, infected and damned countless churches, missions, Bible colleges and religious institutions with a counterfeit gospel that intertwines works with grace! Dear reader, anytime you attack the grace of God, you attack the God of grace! The Apostle Paul was upset in the Epistle of Galatians because someone was messing with grace. ...

Galatians 1:6-7, “I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.”

Pacific Garden Mission is troubling Chicago with their perverted gospel of partial faith in Christ plus works. Don't take my word for it, read this sickening transcript from 'UNSHACKLED':

Program #3625 - Aired in 2020 (the story of Cydanni Ade; she takes a stroll on the beach and meets a stranger, to whom she starts discussing her struggle with truth.) Here is some of their interaction....

Cydanni Ade: “I know, you're going to tell me He [Jesus] loves me unconditionally, and wants to be my Savior.” 

Stranger On The Beach: “Yes and no!” 

Cydanni Ade: “What?” 

Stranger On The Beach: “He does love people, but Him becoming your Savior HAS CONDITIONS!” 

Cydanni Ade: “I've always heard He loves everyone unconditionally.” 

Stranger On The Beach: “Then, why does He call us to repent? If God loves everybody unconditionally, then you can do whatever you want, and believe whatever you think.” 

Cydanni Ade: “I know that's not true!” 

Stranger On The Beach: “Right! So, God placed an absolute condition, by which He requires, commands all people everywhere, to repent of their sins and believe in Jesus Christ, and live for Him!” 

Cydanni Ade: “Huh.” [emphasis added]

SOURCE: Program #3625 - Aired in 2020 (the story of Cydanni Ade)

Dear reader, what you just read is the Satanic lie of Lordship Salvation. Almighty God doesn't require nor command that you repent of your sins to be saved! It is Calvinism repackaged! There are multiple heresies taught in the preceding dialog:

FIRST, God loves everyone. The stranger on the beach is a fool. What saith the Scripture? John 3:16, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” It was God's unconditional love that sent Jesus to be nailed and crucified on a cross to pay for our sins.

SECOND, there are no conditions for Jesus to become your Savior, except to receive Him. What saith the Scripture? John 1:12-13, “But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.” You receive Jesus by believing (trusting) on His name!

THIRD, Pacific Garden Mission (PGM) is woeful confused between justification by faith, and sanctification by the Holy Spirit. What saith the Scripture? Romans 5:1-2, “Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.” Romans 15:16, “That I should be the minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be acceptable, being sanctified by the Holy Ghost.” There you have it—we are JUSTIFIED by faith, and we are SANCTIFIED by the Holy Spirit. That is, God saves us by faith, and then the indwelling Holy Spirit changes us.

Preacher and author of Pilgrim's Progress, John Bunyan, got it right:

 “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)

Pacific Garden Mission (PGM) is pulling on the same rope as the Devil. They obviously aren't theologians, but are merely following the corrupt theology of dangerous men like Ray Comfort, John MacArthur, and Steve Pettit at Bob Jones University (all heretical Calvinists in their doctrine).

FOURTH, nowhere in the Word of God are we commanded to “repent of our sins” to be saved. That phrase doesn't appear in the Holy Bible, corrupt and dishonest men added it! PGM cites a verse from Acts 17:30, “And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:” A good rule to follow when interpreting the Bible is to never use an obscure passage to contradict a clear one. We have hundreds of clear Bible passages teaching that salvation is simply by believing. In fact, the Gospel of John mentions the word “believe” 85 times, without ever mentioning the word “repent” even once. That speaks volumes! It simply tells us that the man who BELIEVES has automatically repented (which simply means, a change of mind). A man repents “toward God” (Acts 20:31b), embracing THE TRUTH that he is a needy sinner, and believing THE TRUTH of the Gospel to be saved. Please 
notice Acts 17:34a, “Howbeit certain men clave unto him, and believed...” Nowhere does the Bible indicate that they turned away from sinning.

FIFTH, You don't have to LIVE FOR JESUS to receive God's free gift. That is why it is called “a gift” (Romans 5:15-18; 6:23; Ephesians 2:8-9). To obtain a gift, you simply take it. Salvation is a take proposition, not a give proposition.

In 1st Corinthians 15:1-4 the Apostle Paul mentions the phrase, “according to the Scriptures” twice. Everything that we believe as Christians must be ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES. Even false prophets know that, which is why PGM cited Acts 17:30 in an attempt to bolster up their Strawman heresy of Lordship Salvation. In fact, even the Devil himself knows that everything must be “according to the Scriptures,” which is why he subtly came to Eve and the first thing he said was, “Hath God said?” (Genesis 3:1). When the Devil came to tempt Jesus, he quoted the Scriptures, taking them out of context (which is exactly what Pacific Garden Mission is doing). PGM are basing a false doctrine on a misinterpretation of Acts 17:30, ignoring the entire Gospel of John (John 20:31). Pastor Max D. Younce preaches a helpful sermon called: 'TRY THE SPIRITS' from 1st John 4:1.

I cannot warn everyone strongly enough about the dangers of the Lordship Gospel, which is not Free Grace Theology! Here is a very helpful quote by Pastor M.R. DeHaan (1891-1965):

“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).

Here are more quotes differentiating between SALVATION and DISCIPLESHIP. Kindly said, the folks at Pacific Garden Mission and 'Unshackled' do not understand what Dr. DeHaan just said, for if they did they wouldn't teach the theological errors that they do! This is a serious matter, because if you're wrong on the plan of salvation, then people cannot be born-again! Satan's greatest weapon is to con people into living the Christian life without ever being born again! That is exactly what PGM and UNSHACKLED are doing!!! They are shackling people to a false hope! You don't get saved by forsaking sinful behavior AND trusting Christ. That is another gospel of partial faith in Christ plus works!

Dear friend, I am just a redeemed sinner on social media. I'm just A VOICE, as was John the Baptist (after whom my middle name is named, “John”), crying in the Wilderness of cyberspace. I hope someone is listening! I love you unconditionally with God's love, whosoever you may be, and I only desire that you come to the knowledge of THE TRUTH of the Gospel to be saved. Jesus warned us in Matthew 7:15, “Beware of false prophets...”

Did Joshua Teach Lordship Salvation?

Joshua 24:19-20, "And Joshua said unto the people, Ye cannot serve the LORD: for he is an holy God; he is a jealous God; he will not forgive your transgressions nor your sins. If ye forsake the LORD, and serve strange gods, then he will turn and do you hurt, and consume you, after that he hath done you good."

God said He wouldn't forgive their sins if they worshipped other gods. God is jealous! You cannot be a devout Roman Catholic, worshipped statues of Mary, and be forgiven by God at the same time. That is what repentance means in the Bible. Hebrews 6:1 speaks of "repentance from DEAD WORKS." Dead works include ALL WORKS that someone relies upon to get them to Heaven. We must change our mind from dead works, to trust the Savior. I believe that is what Joshua 24:19-20 means. Joshua was telling them that they cannot serve God and idols at the same time. 

That is what the Bible means in Ezekiel 18:22 and Ezekiel 33:13, "When I shall say to the righteous, that he shall surely live; if he trust to his own righteousness, and commit iniquity, all his righteousnesses shall not be remembered; but for his iniquity that he hath committed, he shall die for it." The Bible says if a man trusts in his OWN RIGHTEOUSNESS, then God will not pardon him. Romans 10:3-4, "For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth." We are saved by submitting to God's righteousness by faith. Matthew 6:33 says to seek "HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS."

Joshua wasn't telling the people to live righteously to get saved, he was telling them that God would not forgive them if they followed after other strange gods. Joshua 24:23, "Now therefore put away, said he, the strange gods which are among you, and incline your heart unto the LORD God of Israel." There we see repentance and faith (Acts 20:21).

Why Is Paul So Upset In The Epistle Of Galatians?

Galatians 1:6-7, “I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.”

Why was the Apostle Paul so upset in the Epistle of Galatians? The apostle wrote Galatians to several churches in the the region of Galatia (located in the country of Turkey today). Paul was upset because someone was messing with the grace of God! I want to give you FOUR REASONS WHY PAUL WAS SO UPSET:

1. WHEN YOU ATTACK THE GRACE OF GOD, YOU ATTACK THE GOD OF GRACE! Carefully notice in Galatians 1:6 that it is called “the grace of Christ.” Amen! Every believer is saved by grace, called by grace, and commissioned by grace. The Bible only backs-up salvation by grace! You cannot back-up a Lordship Gospel with the Bible. This is why false teachers like Ray Comfort, John MacArthur, Steve Pettit and Paul Washer all rely heavily upon quotes from Calvinist preachers from centuries past. They were heretics then and they are heretics now! Since they cannot use the Word of God to support their damnable heresy, they quote theologically corrupt men as a secondary authority, in a lame attempt to bolster up their Strawman argument.
2. WHEN YOU ATTACK THE GRACE OF GOD, YOU ATTACK THE GIFT OF GRACE. When I got saved as a 13 year old boy, I didn't promise God anything! Acts 16:30-31, “And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.” We rest in Jesus Christ alone to be saved (Hebrews 4:10-11). It is not what we have done or must do, but what Jesus has already done for us through the cross of Calvary! JESUS PAID IT ALL! Christ died for the ungodly, paying our debt of sin in full with His blood (Romans 5:6-9). Eternal life is a free gift from God (Ephesians 2:8-9). You don't earn it. You don't deserve it. You don't merit it. You don't qualify for it. You simply ACCEPT IT BY FAITH!!! Grace is not what I do, it is everything that God did and does.
3. WHEN YOU ATTACK THE GRACE OF GOD, YOU ATTACK THE GUARDIAN OF GRACE. The guardian of grace is the local New Testament church! 1st Thessalonians 2:4, “But as we were allowed of God to be put in trust with the gospel, even so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, which trieth our hearts.” What a lovely Bible verse! We have been entrusted by God in the local New Testament church with the Gospel. It is the greatest and most delicate treasure ever given to the world. The Apostle Paul was upset in Galatians because someone was messing with grace. Paul was upset that anyone “would pervert the gospel of Christ” (Galatians 1:7). If we don't guard the Gospel, then no one else will. Sadly, many false churches today have departed from the faith, preaching another gospel of making full surrender to Christ as “Lord,” forsaking your deliberate sinful behavior, faithfully running the race until the end of life, and committing your life to live for Christ, to be saved. What saith the Scripture? 1st Timothy 4:1, “Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;” The Apostle Paul warns in Galatians 1:6-9, that if any man preaches any other Gospel than what the Apostles preached, let him be accursed by God!
4. WHEN YOU ATTACK THE GRACE OF GOD, YOU ATTACK THE GOAL OF GRACE. The blessed goal of grace is soulwinning worldwide! God desires for all men to repent toward God and believe the truth of the Gospel (Acts 20:21). Why is Paul so upset in Galatians? It is because the Gospel is for everyone, and when a corrupt preacher like Evangelist Ray Comfort says you must forsake a life of fornication to be saved, he has excluded you from God's grace! If sinners must forsake their sinful bad habits to be saved, then grace has been corrupted, and not everyone is welcomed to it. My inspired King James Bible says, “whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely” (Revelation 22:17). That is so clear and beautiful. The Bible does not place any stipulations, obligations, requirements or warnings to be saved, it simply saves WHOSOEVER WILL. Romans 10:13, “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Again we read WHO SO EVER. In the Greek that means, “YOU” and “ME.” The proponents of Lordship Salvation add a bunch of junk to grace that is not found in the King James Bible. In so doing they ostracize tens of millions of people, who are not ready to “forsake all” to follow Jesus as their LORD, in order to be saved. God's goal is to witness to everyone, but you cannot do that if you place unbiblical demands upon sinners to clean-up their ways, and to commit to serving Christ, because that is not the Gospel. People cannot be born-again by religion.

In the Epistle of Galatians we learn about GRACE and the GOSPEL. 2nd Corinthians 12:9, “And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.” What a beautiful passage of Scripture! What a precious truth! Jesus said, “MY GRACE IS SUFFICIENT FOR THEE”!!!

Let him be cursed who adds to grace! Tragically, Bob Jones University (BJU) adds to grace. Sadly, Dr. Steve Pettit (president of BJU) adds to grace. Horrifyingly, Harvest Baptist Church on Guam adds to grace. Harvest promotes John MacArthur, BJU and Steve Pettit. Their lies are their truth at BJU and Harvest. When you attack God's grace, you attack the God of grace! Paul was upset because someone was messing with grace. Paul called them “foolish” and “bewitched” in Galatians 3:1. Paul said they had “fallen” from grace, meaning they hadn't lost it, but they had gotten away from grace. You cannot be saved when you get away from grace. The Apostle Paul said in Galatians 2:21, “I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.” BJU frustrate's grace. Moody Bible Institute in Chicago frustrate's grace, teaching the lies of Calvinism instead.

What is grace? Someone has accurately stated G.R.A.C.E. as an acronym meaning: “God's Riches At Christ's Expense.” Grace is God giving us what we do not deserve. Mercy is God withholding from us what we do deserve. As a sinner I deserve to die without Christ and burn in Hell forever as punishment, and so do you. Thankfully God made a way of escape through faith alone in the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. The Apostle Paul clearly defines the “Gospel” (Good News) in 1st Corinthians 15:1-4:

1. DEATH
2. BURIAL
3. RESURRECTION

That's grace! Anyone who receives Christ's sacrifice on the cross as payment for their sins, believing that He was buried and raised up three days later from the dead, is saved. We are saved solely by God's grace. When someone like Ray Comfort, Marty Herron, Steve Pettit, Sam Horn, Adrian Rogers, Billy Graham, Harvest Baptist Church on Guam, Bob Jones University, David Jeremiah and John MacArthur teach that MORE is required than childlike faith, they have corrupted grace. Romans 11:6, “And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.” Could the Bible speak any plainer? I think not. Works and grace must not be intertwined, which is what Lordship Salvation is. Pilgrim's Progress preacher and author, John Bunyan, made this excellent quote:

“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)

Marty Herron, Steve Pettit, Gary Walton of Harvest Baptist Church, Bob Jones University, and Moody Bible Institute today, are all casting stumbling blocks before the people. Back in 1944 when BJU still taught Free Grace Theology, Dr. Bob Jones Sr. (1883-1968) had this to say about the matter (and I agree 100%):

“He [Jude] said, well it was 'needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith, which once for all [was] delivered unto the saints.' 

Now wait a minute, you've got something worth contending for! Isn't it strange that something so valuable and so wonderful as saving faith is something we that have to be exhorted to contend for? Why, if you had a diamond worth $5,000 you wouldn't leave it just lying around anywhere. If you had $1,000,000 in gold, you'd go put it in a vault. [If] Anybody tried to get it, you'd fight to keep them from gettin' it. And we just sit down and just let people steal the faith that Christians have, and never bother about it. Some of us pay 'em to do that! Some of us pay preachers to stand in the pulpit and steal the faith of the saints of God, and send our children to Hell. The most crooked crook on God Almighty's earth is a preacher who stands in a Trinitarian pulpit, and steals the faith of people! 

You know I've said it many a time; if I was up in Heaven, fifty years from now (and the Lord tarried), and any religious liberal ever sat in a classroom in this institution, and tried to disseminate his infidelity, I'd ask God Almighty to excuse me for a little while, and I'd come back down to this school and get a stick of dynamite, and I'd blow it into smithereens! I'd rather see this school a heap of rubbish, just a little rubbish here and a little rubbish yonder, than see the time ever come we could be such softies, we'll sit down and let the Devil put his modernists and religious liberals in here to rob them of the faith. And yet that things going on in America, from one end of this country to the other!” —Dr. Bob Jones Sr.; YouTube | MP4 | MP3

As you just read, Dr. Bob Jones Sr. said he would rather destroy Bob Jones College, than to let modernists and religious liberals (like Dr. Steve Pettit) corrupt one student with infidelity that robs them of their faith! Professed Christians nowadays are so deceived by the Devil, that they even pay infidels to destroy the faith of young people in the Word of God and the Gospel of free grace! Bob Jones University sells, sanctions and uses multiple Bible revisions! They sanction the Devil's corrupt Alexandrian manuscripts! BJU horribly betrays the inspired Word of God. Sadly, Bob Jones University has been going downhill in spiritual deterioration for decades, hobnobbing with ungodly Neo-evangelicals. Consequently, they've been infected with ecumenism, Lordship Salvation, Calvinism, John MacArthur and corruptible seed at BJU!

We are living in woeful times of apostasy, when professed Christians are not really saved at all. Anyone who believes that they don't have eternal security, does not have eternal life dwelling in them. They don't have Jesus in them! 1st John 5:20 says that Jesus is eternal life, “And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.” I love that! JESUS IS ETERNAL LIFE!!! The Bible doesn't tell us to forsake our sinful ways to receive God's gift of eternal life, we are simply told to RECEIVE JESUS. The gift of eternal life comes wrapped in the wonderful package of Jesus!!! And that is why the Apostle Paul was upset at the churches in Galatia, because they were messing with grace! DON'T MESS WITH GRACE!!!

God Rewards Those Who Remain By The Stuff

1st Samuel 30:22-24, “Then answered all the wicked men and men of Belial, of those that went with David, and said, Because they went not with us, we will not give them ought of the spoil that we have recovered, save to every man his wife and his children, that they may lead them away, and depart. Then said David, Ye shall not do so, my brethren, with that which the LORD hath given us, who hath preserved us, and delivered the company that came against us into our hand. For who will hearken unto you in this matter? but as his part is that goeth down to the battle, so shall his part be that tarrieth by the stuff: they shall part alike.”

The Biblical reason why we suffer is because we live in a fallen world. When Adam sinned, he opened the floodgate for sin and death to enter into the world. Romans 5:12, “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” It is not God's will for a drunk driver to kill a pregnant woman and her child, but I stood over their caskets at a funeral. I'll never forget that small white coffin being lowered into the ground. The drunk driver sustained minor injuries. He should have got the death penalty! He is now free and enjoying his life. We have a sin problem in America! Jesus said in Matthew 24:12 that the love of many would wax cold because iniquity (unpunished evil) shall abound. Now the authorities are releasing convicted criminals onto American streets due to the Coronavirus scare! That is insane.

On page 59 of chapter five (“Why We Suffer”) by M.R. DeHaan (1891-1965) in his helpful book, “BROKEN THINGS,” he wonderfully says these words of encouragement for those who are suffering:

The greatest sermons I have heard were not preached from pulpits but from sickbeds. The greatest, deepest truths of God's Word have often been revealed, not by those who preached as a result of their seminary preparation and education, but by those humble souls who have gone through the seminary of affliction and have learned the deep things of the ways of God. 

The more cheerful people I have met, with few exceptions, have been those who had the least sunshine and the most pain and suffering in their lives. The most grateful people I have met were not those who had traveled a pathway of roses all their lives through, but those who were confined, because of circumstances, to their homes—often to their beds. They had learned to depend upon God as only such Christians know how to do. 

The "gripers" on the other hand, are usually those who enjoy excellent health. The complainers are those who have the least to complain about. But those dear saints of God who have refreshed my heart again and again as they preached from sickbed-pulpits have been the men and women who have been the most cheerful and the most grateful for the blessings of of almighty God. 

The Bible tells us distinctly that there is a special reward and a special crown which the Lord has prepared and paid up for those who suffer patiently. This principle is suggested by the incident recorded in I Samuel 30.  

David, along with four hundred strong, healthy men, had gone out to seek the enemy. Two hundred, however, had remained behind because they were weary and faint, probably because of some physical infirmity. These David had left behind to guard the camp and the equipment of those who went into the heat of the battle. After the victory had been won, the four hundred who had been active participants in the battle refused to share with those who had remained behind and said, “We'll give them just a little bit, but we're going to take the spoils.” 

At this point David stated the eternal principle in the words of I Samuel 30:24, “As his part is that goeth down to the battle, so shall his part be that tarrieth by the stuff: they shall part alike.” Those of you who remain by the stuff are not overlooked or forgotten by God: there is a very definite and special reward laid up for God's patient sufferers. 

If you, child of God, are upon a bed of illness, if you are being troubled by pain or discouragement, remember that God will always use our suffering for His purposes. Our suffering silences Satan, our suffering enables us to glorify God, our suffering makes us more like Christ, our suffering makes us appreciative, and, ultimately, our suffering teaches us to depend on God. —Pastor M.R. DeHaan, “Broken Things,” pp. 59-61; ©1948, Discovery House Publishers

Isn't that beautiful? One of my favorite Bible verses is Romans 8:17, “And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.” The moment we got saved, we became HEIRS with Jesus of all that God the Father is giving to Him. Romans 8:32 says God will give us “ALL THINGS.” I wish that included a wife, but the Lord said we'll be like the angels in Heaven, who don't marry. I guess it is because I'm still in my earthly body, but I cannot imagine Heaven without someone special to share it with. I know we'll all share Heaven with Jesus, but I wish I could have a wife in Heaven. That is just my thinking. I'll just have to wait and see how it all works, because I get discouraged thinking about being alone in Heaven too. I can only believe, by faith, that our God knows what is best, and He will make Heaven better than earth for us.

Since we are equal heirs with Christ, since we share in His sufferings here on earth, we shall also share in His glory in eternity. I am not sure exactly what that means, but I think it is safe to say that we will share in all the good times that are coming in Heaven. God wants us to be happy. I love this next Bible verse from Ephesians 3:20, “Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.” 

God already knows what we desire (Matthew 6:7-8). I want a new healthy body, which He has promised in Philippians 3:21. I want a wife, but the Lord said there is no marriage in Heaven, which makes me sad. There must be something that I don't understand. I am a man now, so I think like a man. But in my resurrected body I'll be like an angel (Mark 12:25). I am not sure what that means. I'll have to wait and see. I trust my good God! I know He wants me to be happy. Jesus is no respecter of persons, He doesn't favor certain of His children over others. We will all be equally loved, sought after, cared about, and cherished by our dear Savior in Heaven. I believe that with all my heart, and that encourages me.

God allows us to suffer because of sin. The serpent beguiled Eve, selling her a raw deal. The serpent told her she would become a god, and she did, but it wasn't in the way Eve imagined. Adam and Eve became gods in the sense of living and dying by their own decisions, which wasn't what Eve thought it would be. Eve must have hated the serpent, and felt stupid for the rest of her life. The serpent never returned to her. That is what malicious people will do. They give horrible advice and destroy someone's marriage, then go their own way and never be heard from again. Some people love to kill, steal and destroy, just like the Devil. 

Romans 6:23 says the wages of sin is death. It may not be for a sin we committed. Last month a 40 foot tree fell over and killed an 11 year old Girl Scout in southern Indiana. It wasn't for any particular sin that the little girl committed that killed her. We live in a fallen world because of sin. Bad things happen to good people. Good things happened to bad people. Scripturally, we are all sinners. Those whom we consider “good people” are still sinners. 

It doesn't seem fair to me, that God allows us to be born into a fallen world. I read yesterday a commentary by Dr. Oliver B. Greene, where he says we would have sinned just like Adam, if we were in his shoes. I totally disagree! Adam had no earthly father. God was Adam's father, just like Jesus. Adam had no sin nature prior to sinning. So I think each of us would have done differently. Adam had no predisposition to sin, just as Jesus didn't. I don't understand it all, but I don't believe Adam had no choice in the matter. Many atheists blame God for putting them into this situation. Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry, an atheist, said this:

“We must question the story logic of having an all-knowing all-powerful God, who creates faulty Humans, and then blames them for his own mistakes.” ―Gene Roddenberry

I actually agree with his feelings! It doesn't seem fair that God allowed me to be born into a messed-up world. But the Lord plainly said that His thoughts are above my thoughts. Isaiah 55:8-9, “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.” We cannot understand everything about God. We have the mind of Christ as believers (1st Corinthians 2:14-16), but we still cannot understand all things. 1st Corinthians 13:12, “For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.” Thankfully, we don't have to understand God to please Him, we simply just need to TRUST HIM (Proverbs 3:5-7). 

The great heart of God is seen in our text verse from 1st Samuel 30-24. God will reward those believers who fight in the heat of the battle on the front lines, but He will also reward those suffering saints behind the scenes, those unsung heroes who stay by the stuff!

America's Ever Changing Moral And Doctrinal Standards

Hebrews 13:8-9, “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever. Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein.”

I love Hebrews 13:8, which says JESUS CHRIST IS THE SAME YESTERDAY, TODAY, AND FOREVER!!! Malachi 3:6, “For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.” Our great, loving and omnipotent (all-powerful) God never changes. In theology, “immutable” means God's inability to change. God is absolutely holy and cannot be compromised. God cannot do evil, neither can He be tempted with evil. James 1:13-14, “Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.” One of my favorite sermons by Pastor Harold Sightler (1914-1995) is called: 'The Unchanging Church In A Changing World.' God is not the One who has changed, it is mankind who keeps changing!

America's Changing Moral Standards

As recent as 1962, the sin of homosexuality was a punishable crime in all 50 states, but since June of 2015 the ungodly U.S. Supreme Court ruled that homosexuals can get married in all 50 states. God's curse is upon our nation! Job 20:5, “That the triumphing of the wicked is short, and the joy of the hypocrite but for a moment?” God-fearing Christians are frustrated right now in America, seeing sodomites triumph in the courts and workplace (and it will become much worse  before Christ returns). But know this oh Christian, we are on the winning side in Jesus Christ! No one can escape death, and then cometh, “THE JUDGMENT” (Hebrews 9:27b).

Prior to 1973, the American Psychiatric Association (APA) considered and treated homosexuality as a pathological mental illness. But in 1973 the APA ruled: “'Homosexuality per se,' the trustees voted, should no longer be considered a 'psychiatric disorder'.” Go figure, the psychiatrists need psychiatrists! They've lost their minds!!! Brother Lester Roloff (1914-1982) is absolutely right: “WE'RE IN INSANITY BECAUSE WE'RE IN SIN!” The inspired Holy Bible hasn't changed since God gave the first five books (The Pentateuch) to Moses 3,500 years ago! The blessed and inspired King James Bible hasn't changed since 1611 when it was completed. We have changed, but God's Word hasn't changed. The churches have changed, but THE CHURCH hasn't changed!

What gives men the right to continually change what is good or evil? There are tens of thousands of people rotting in U.S. prison for the crime of growing, selling and possessing marijuana (the matured female hemp plant produces marijuana). Yet, the state of Illinois just legalized recreational use of marijuana in 2020. Dozens of states have already legalized the use of marijuana for either medical and/or recreational use. Why was marijuana a horrible crime 25 years ago, but today is legal and socially acceptable? 

Likewise, abortion wasn't even an option in the United States until 1973, when the ungodly U.S. Supreme Court (case: Roe vs. Wade) legalized murdering a human being in the womb. Our nation has the blood of 60,000,000 human beings on our hands! Think about all the people, who should and would have been with us today, but they were denied their right to life by a selfish mother, a cruel society, a monstrous mass-murdering doctor, and a Satanic court system that flaunts itself against a holy God, who created all those precious lives! I often wonder who should have been here today, but they were murdered!!! That human could have been your future wife that was murdered, or your future husband, your soulmate; or the child could have been the next U.S. President, or Bible preacher to lead us to sanity!

If the sin of homosexuality was wrong in 1962, it is still wrong in 2020. If the sin of abortion was wrong in 1972, it is still wrong in 2020. If the sin of public nudity was wrong in 1925, it is still wrong in 2020. If the sin of fornication was wrong in 1955, it is still wrong in 2020. If the sin of covetousness was wrong in 1890, it is still wrong in 2020. Our God hasn't changed!!!

America's Changing Doctrinal Standards

Likewise, our doctrines are sadly changing in the churches. The Devil has published and crept hundreds of English Bible revisions into the churches to confuse and corrupt everyone. I get disgusted at today's Bible colleges, who are the biggest culprit, sanctioning and promoting the Devil's Bible perversions! Consequently, the churches are changing for the worst, being pastored by incompetent graduates of apostate Bible colleges like Bob Jones University and Moody Bible Institute that promote counterfeit Bibles and a false gospel of Lordship Salvation. 

Please notice our text passage again, that the Holy Bible associates unwavering doctrine with an unwavering Savior who never changes...

Hebrews 13:8-9, “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever. Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein.”

The Bible teaches that the Word of God became incarnate (John 1:1-3 and 14). The Word of God became flesh, and we beheld His glory as the only begotten Son of God (John 1:14). In Revelation 19:13b Jesus is called “THE WORD OF GOD.” Dr. John R. Rice (1895-1980) used to say that Jesus and the Bible are twins! Jesus is the Living Word, and the Holy Bible is the Written Word. So when ungodly meddlers go tampering with the Word of God, changing the truth of God into a lie (Romans 1:25), and perverting what God said (Jeremiah 23:36), then effectively, we have another Jesus!!! The apostle Paul warned everyone against false teachers who would bring into the churches another spirit, another Jesus, and another gospel (2nd Corinthians 11:3-4). 

What I am saying ladies and gentlemen, is that doctrinal soundness hinges upon having an unchanging view of Jesus Christ, which is the inspired Word of God! All of these modern Bible revisions are of the Devil, literally redefining what it means to “repent,” changing it to a change of behavior instead of a change of mind to be saved. I'm not kidding! Take a look at Mark 1:15 and Hebrews 6:1 in the damnable Easy-To-Read Version (ERV) that Harvest Baptist Church uses on Guam. ...

EASY-TO-READ VERSION (ERV) — “So we should be finished with the beginning lessons about Christ. We should not have to keep going back to where we started. We began our new life by turning away from the evil we did in the past and by believing in God.” [emphasis added]

Here again is Hebrews 6:1 in the beloved, correct, King James Bible . . .

KING JAMES BIBLE (KJB) — Hebrews 6:1, “Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God.” [emphasis added]

Do you see how the new corrupt Bible versions are horribly changing theology in the churches? The King James Bible teaches that we must repent from our 'DEAD WORKS' to be saved, but the ERV teaches that we must stop living a life of deliberate sin (evil) to be saved. 'DEAD WORKS' includes all works! Romans 3:20 warns that no one can be saved by 'THE DEEDS OF THE LAW.' The Alexandrian Greek is of the Devil, teaching a works-based plan of salvation. Salvation is NOT by works (Romans 3:20; Ephesians 2:8-9; Titus 3:5; Romans 4:5-6). The doctrine of the imputed righteousness of God silences all the critics.


A baby believer won't see the major theological differences between the ERV verses the KJB, but I tell you that there are THOUSANDS!!! They've butchered the Words of God!!! Hebrews 6:1 in the ERV sinfully changes the entire plan of salvation, which now requires partial faith in Christ + human effort! No wonder our churches are so messed-up nowadays. Bob Jones University and Moody Bible Institute today (and umpteen more corrupt religious institutions) are like naive horses, who woefully lack understanding, so they behave like dumb animals. ...

Psalms 32:9, “Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest they come near unto thee.”

Are you like a senseless horse? Any thinking person sees a big problem with having more than one Bible version! The man with two watches never knows what time it is. God only authored ONE HOLY BOOK! 

America's Changing Plan Of Salvation

Ungodly ecumenical sinister ministers often make over $100,000 a year (e.g., Steve Pettit, Sam Horn, Marty Herron, John MacArthur), but God's curse is upon them for preaching another gospel. God's curse (literally they are DAMNED) is upon these wicked men...

Galatians 1:6-8, “I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.”

The Bible is very clear on the Gospel of free grace. You simple recognize yourself as a needy sinner, trust Jesus Christ as your Savior. Jesus died on the cross for our sins, He was buried, and three days later Christ raised up from the dead (1st Corinthians 15:1-4). Anyone who receives Christ's sacrifice on the cross as payment for their sins is eternally saved. It is that simple to be born again! Eternal life is a free gift (Ephesians 2:8-9; Romans 5:15-18, 6:23). When someone comes along requiring that you make full surrender to Christ's Lordship, follow Him regardless of the cost, persevere in holiness, run the race, count the cost, turn from your sin, and commit your life to Christ, they are preaching ANOTHER GOSPEL!

In the early days of Bob Jones College (founded in 1927), Dr. Bob Jones Sr. simply taught salvation by a childlike faith in the Savior. What happened? Who hath bewitched you oh BJU that you should follow another gospel of Lordship Salvation (i.e., Calvinism)? Sadly, as I mentioned, the apostate Bible colleges have influenced the churches, which includes the corrupted Harvest Baptist Church on Guam. The church began in 1975 when a Vietnam veteran was returning from war. Harvest started out on the right track, by faith alone in Christ, but then the Devil crept into their church when Pastor Marty Herron came along like a spider in 1999, bringing Dr. John MacArthur's damnable theology with him into the church, corrupting it with Lordship Salvation! Dear reader, the Gospel hasn't changed in thousands of years! In Genesis 15:6 Abram (later renamed to Abraham) was justified by faith alone (Romans 4:1-5). That was 4,000 years ago! God's plan of salvation HASN'T CHANGED!!!

Psalms 37:12-13, “The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth. The Lord shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming.” I love that Bible verse—FOR HE SEETH HIS DAY COMING! Oh, you Bob Jones University crowd who relish in your Devil's Bibles—YOUR DAY IS COMING! You Bob Jones' evildoers with your Devil's lie of Lordship Salvation that damns men's souls to Hell—YOUR DAY IS COMING! It may seem like a light thing to many people, but adding works to the Gospel is no trifle matter. You either have to repent (turn) from your sin to be saved, or you do not, but it cannot be both. Common sense tells us that! Since eternal life is a free gift (Romans 6:23), no payment can be required from the recipient. 

I saw a lying bank advertisement that said they'd give a “gift” to anyone who opens a new bank account. That is not a “gift,” it is a reward, because you are required to open a new bank account to obtain it. If it were a gift, I could walk into the bank and simply receive it without any obligation whatsoever. Likewise, to receive God's free gift of eternal life (paid for in full by Jesus' precious blood - 1st Peter 1:18-19), you simply take it! Salvation is a TAKE proposition, not a GIVE proposition. Salvation is received, not achieved. 

Dr. Bob Jones Sr. (1883-1968) told his students in 1944, that if the college allowed infidels and modernists 50 years later to rob us of our faith, he would take dynamite and blow Bob Jones College to smithereens! Bob Jones University is a cesspool in iniquity today, teaching Calvinism and Lordship Damnation! I sure wish I could talk sense to the Bob Jones crowd, especially on Guam at Harvest Baptist Church, but they refuse to heed THE TRUTH! Eternal life is a gift wrapped in Jesus!!! BJU is in denial. 

The key to living the Christian life is to anchor yourself to the precious unchanging Savior, and His unchanging inspired Word. In a world that is always changing, we need to cling to the unchanging King James Bible. My anchor holds! Amen! It is not mere coincidence that the Devil has been changing the Holy Bible since 1881. Satan wants to remove your anchor! That way you'll drift in the boat of life all over the place, eventually going over a waterfall to destruction! Satan's primary goal in 1881 (the year that Brooke Westcott and Fenton Hort introduced their “new” Greek New Testament to the world), was to set a precedent of CHANGING the Word of God. 

By introducing a SECOND authority, to compete with the FIRST authority (i.e., the Textus Receptus from which our beloved King James Bible was translated), it necessitated a THIRD authority to decide which of the first two authorities are correct. That third authority is corrupt manmade scholarship! Pastor Peter S. Ruckman (1921-2016) wrote some excellent writings on this subject, which is where I learned the preceding vital information from. The book is called: 'The Alexandrian Cult Series' (.pdf format). 

Satan did this very same thing in Genesis 3:1. God told Adam and Eve in Genesis 2:16b, “Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat,” but the serpent (Satan) CHANGED God's Word into a lie, saying in Genesis 3:1b, “Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden.” Do you see how the subtle serpent changed the Word of God to say the exact opposite of what God said? That is what the modern Bibles do. Take a look at what these devils did to corrupt the Word of God in Philippians 2:6. Folks, Bob Jones University sells, uses, promotes and sanctions this Satanic garbage in the English Standard Version (ESV)...

KING JAMES BIBLE (KJB) - Philippians 2:6, “Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:”

ENGLISH STANDARD VERSION (ESV) - Philippians 2:6, “who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped,”

For speaking out against these evils, I have been forced out, shunned, banned and ostracized by the Harvest Baptist Church on Guam since 2014. They are pulling on the same rope as the Devil at Harvest. SHAME ON ALL OF THEM!!! SHAME ON  BOB JONES UNIVERSITY!!! There is not a more arrogant bunch of reprobates concerning the faith today than the shameful Bob Jones' crowd. Does anybody care? Right doctrine matters!

Oh dear friend, the Gospel hasn't changed. God's commandment, “Thou shalt not kill,” in Exodus 20:13 hasn't changed (abortion is first-degree murder). Homosexuality is just as perverse and ungodly today, as it was when God destroyed Sodom and it's homosexuals (Genesis 19:1-15) with fire and brimstone. The preserved inspired Word of God hasn't changed (which is the inspired King James Bible). Right hasn't changed! Wrong hasn't changed! Truth hasn't changed! God hasn't changed! It is Hollywood that has changed! It is the White House that has changed! It is America that has changed. It is the world and humanity that have changed, not God or His Word. Hebrews 13:8, “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.”

The Modern Bible Revisions No Longer Worship Jesus

Matthew 8:2, “And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.” 

In the beloved King James Bible, we read repeatedly that people “WORSHIPED” Jesus. I quoted Matthew 8:2 above as just one example. Unfortunately, all of the Devil's modern Bible revisions corrupt these passages, changing the word “worshipped” to “knelt” or “bowed,” diminishing and attacking Jesus' deity. I quote the correct King James Bible first below, and then several of the corrupted Devil's Bibles...

KJV - And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. 

ESV - And behold, a leper came to him and knelt before him, saying, “Lord, if you will, you can make me clean.” 

ERV - Then a man sick with leprosy came to him. The man bowed down before Jesus and said, “Lord, you have the power to heal me if you want.” 

AMP - And a leper came up to Him and bowed down before Him, saying, “Lord, if You are willing, You are able to make me clean (well).” 

CEB - A man with a skin disease came, kneeled before him, and said, “Lord, if you want, you can make me clean.” 

CSB - Right away a man with leprosy came up and knelt before him, saying, “Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.”

More Comparisons

Why would all those Bible translators remove every mention of people “WORSHIPPING” the blessed Savior? The answer is obvious—because the Devil doesn't want you to WORSHIP JESUS!!! The Devil wants you to worship him instead. Look at all these famous people showing their allegiance to the Devil and coming Antichrist...

Matthew 4:8-10, “Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.”

Please pay attention to the following Scripture passage from Mark 15:17-19, “And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head, And began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews! And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon him, and bowing their knees worshipped him.” Carefully notice the distinction between “BOWING” and “WORSHIPPING.” They are not the same Greek words. They don't mean the same thing! 

This proves that the modern Bible revisions are utterly corrupt!!! The word “bowing” is the Greek word tithēmi, which means, “a place, i.e., the position of kneeling.” The word “worshipping” is the Greek word proskuneō, which means, “to kiss, like a dog licking his master's hand.” As you can see, these are two very different meanings. In every place where the modern Bible revisions change “worship” to “knelt” or “bowed,” the meaning is proskuneō. In other words, they are removing every place where people worshipped the Lord, saying that they merely bowed down and knelt, lying to you! If God meant bowed, then He would have used the word tithēmi, which means to assume a bowing position. But the Divine Author chose to use the word proskuneō instead, which means TO WORSHIP!!!

One of the most ungodly, compromised and arrogant religious institutions in America today is Bob Jones University (BJU) in Greenville, South Carolina. A long time ago, when Dr. Bob Jones Sr. (1883-1968) was still at the ship's helm at Bob Jones College (founded in 1927), they were the citadel of Christian fundamentalism in the world! Today in 2020 BJU is as the sinking ship Titanic, drowning in the depths of apostasy and theological corruption, with Dr. Steve Pettit at the helm recklessly steering the ship into the deadly icebergs of Lordship Salvation and the Devil's Bibles! 

Case in point is the English Standard Version (ESV) which BJU uses, sells, promotes and bids Godspeed to! Here is a comparison of Matthew 20:20...

KING JAMES BIBLE (KJB) - Matthew 20:20, “Then came to him the mother of Zebedee's children with her sons, worshipping him, and desiring a certain thing of him.” 

ENGLISH STANDARD VERSION (ESV) - Matthew 20:20, “Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came up to him with her sons, and kneeling before him she asked him for something.”

The Greek word for “worshipping” in this Bible verse is (you guessed it), proskuneō! The mother of the sons of Zebedee came and WORSHIPED the precious Lord Jesus Christ! It is Satan who has tampered with the inspired Word of God, removing every mention of people worshipping the dear Savior. As we clearly see in Mark 15:19, “And they [soldiers] smote him [Jesus] on the head with a reed, and did spit upon him, and bowing their knees worshipped him.” Do you see it friend? The Bible makes a clear distinction here between BOWING and WORSHIPPING! So in every other place in the New Testament, where the modern Bible revisions change the potent word “WORSHIP” to a mere impotent “BOWED,” they are sinfully corrupting the Holy Scriptures! They have committed a woeful evil, perverting the Words of the Living God, desecrating the deity of our Great God And Savior Jesus Christ!!!

I Am Despised And Rejected Of Men For Telling The Truth

My own testimony is the same as Jesus' testimony, who was despised and rejected by people. Isaiah 53:3, “He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.” I am now listening to the Old Testament minor prophet, Habakkuk, which is a tremendous book of the Bible. Habakkuk 2:16, “Thou art filled with shame for glory: drink thou also, and let thy foreskin be uncovered: the cup of the LORD's right hand shall be turned unto thee, and shameful spewing shall be on thy glory.” I immediately thought of Bob Jones University, and the Harvest Baptist Church on Guam, when I heard this passage of Scripture: THOU ART FILLED WITH SHAME FOR GLORY!!! 

BJU and Harvest falsely think they are prospering, but like the thriving church at Laodicea, they are naked and blind and in denial (Revelation 3:15-16). BJU and Harvest have a false sense of pride!!! Their glorying is not good, because it is actually SHAME! Those who preach the Devil's heresy of Lordship Salvation ought to be ashamed, and they will be when they stand before God in eternity as unsaved reprobates (Matthew 7:21-23; they said, “LORD, LORD,” but they we're not His sheep).

In 2014, the former pastor of Harvest Baptist Church on Guam, Dr. Marty Herron, taught me a Bible verse that I will never forget from Habakkuk 3:2b, “In wrath remember mercy.” I approached him in the main church auditorium after a Sunday evening service, and most people had already gone home. I had tears in my eyes, as I explained to him about my broken life. Pastor Herron kindly placed his hand upon my shoulder and said: “David, You deserve God's wrath, but He has shown you mercy.” He then prayed for me. I needed that compassion. I love Pastor Herron and he is a good man, as far as good men go. But he is deceived by the Devil, whose mentors are Pastor John MacArthur and Evangelist Steve Pettit. 

Due to my proper King James Bible only position, and for justly exposing the Devil's corrupt Alexandrian Bibles, and for righteously refuting the Devil's lie of Lordship Salvation, as a true friend who TOLD THE TRUTH—Harvest's pastor sinfully reprimanded me in the church office, and I was forced out of Harvest in 2014! I left in uncontrollable tears. I missed their nurse so much who liked me, and I fell in love with her. Everything just came to a screeching halt, because I TOLD THE TRUTH! In 2017, in utter loneliness I humbly pleaded with Pastor Herron (and Pastors' Joe Hanson and Jared Baldwin) to please give me a second chance, and to please let me attend church services, but Pastor Herron cold-heartedly told me to “Go elsewhere.” That was an evil thing to say to me. Romans 14:10, “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.” I had nowhere else to go as a born-again Baptist!

No doubt they think I should have let this matter go a long time ago, but this is my story. This is my life, good and bad alike! Acts 4:20, “For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.” While they've all been playing church at Harvest since 2014, I haven't had a church family. God will hold them accountable. I love them unconditionally, but they don't care about me at all. The ministry is about serving, which is what the word “minister” means, “a servant.”Matthew 23:11, “But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.” Tragically, they only serve themselves at Harvest and BJU! People are not that important to them, but money is of the utmost importance! 

Regardless of what they may say, I am living proof of what I just said. It is true! I begged for their compassion in 2017. I offered to humbly meet in the Pastor's office, and to comply with whatever it took to make things right with Harvest Baptist Church on Guam. Associate Pastor Jared Baldwin literally laughed in my face, and Associate Pastor Joe Hanson called me and Dr. Jack Hyles “a cult,” and Senior Pastor Marty Herron did what he does best—NOTHING! Pastor Herron cruelly told me to “Go elsewhere!” They left me for dead, when I desperately needed their love, help and guidance. Folks, these people are moochers! They parasite off of Christendom, but don't genuinely love or care about others. They only care about their little clique that pays their salaries. This is the apostate condition of today's ecumenical Baptist churches! This is the spiritually depraved condition of the Bob Jones University crowd nowadays! Did I mention that BJU is a cesspool of iniquity who are preaching Lordship Salvation? All they care about is the love of money (1st Timothy 6:10).
