WHAT
DO DEVIL POSSESSED FUNDAMENTAL PREACHERS TEACH?
By
Steve Van Nattan
It
is very clear today that many Fundamental preachers are teaching doctrines
of devils. They punish and pummel the Lord's sheep mercilessly, and it is
time to expose them.
Just
before the Lord returns for his Church, we are told there will be "a great
falling away."
2
Thessalonians 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not
come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed,
the son of perdition;
This
falling away will not be by Episcopalians and Methodists. They were well fallen
many years ago. The falling away will be by those in what used to be Bible believing
churches.
And,
these falling churches will be lead by falling pastors. Wolves shall enter in
among the sheep, take over pulpits, and they shall lead gullible saints into a
profane and degraded form of Christianity.
Acts
20:29 For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in
among you, not sparing the flock. 30 Also of your own selves shall men arise,
speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.
In
this article I use the King James Bible word "devils" when referring
to an evil spirit taking over the life and work of a pastor. But, in the thinking
of people today the word "devils" is often used. They are one and the
same in meaning. So, if you think of this issue in terms of "devils,"
my use of the Bible word "devils" means the same thing
HOW
DO DEVILS BEHAVE?
When
we suspect devils, or devils, have invaded a church or its pastor, what qualities
of behavior are we looking for?
Answer:
The characteristics found in devils according to the Word of God.
1.
devils believe there is one God.
James
2:19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe,
and tremble.
The
fact that a pastor believes there is a God, the God of the Bible, proves nothing.
When Donald Trump was campaigning for President of the USA he told interviewers,
"I am very religious." He then went on to associate himself with a oligarchy
of "Christian" leaders, and millions of Bible believing Christians decided
Trump was God's great gift to America. Bah. President Trump's marriage doctrine
is NOT Christian, and his instructions on how to grab the ladies is extremely
vulgar. Also, he exalts sodomy and has appointed sodomites to positions.
But,
how about Christian leaders? Do their lives match their alleged relationship with
Jesus Christ? There are a lot of preachers waving a King James Bible, and shouting
and claiming to love Jesus Christ, who are as certain to be in Hell as Adolph
Hitler is. And, Jesus warned us that it would be so:
Matthew
7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom
of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22
Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name?
and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye
that work iniquity.
When
you come to the end of this article, and if you see clear signs that your pastor
is possessed of devils, will you take action, or will you leave your wife and
kids in that place to become twice the children of Hell he is?
2. devils are proud and self-willed
The
way to see this is in Satan himself. His name before he fell from Heaven through
sin was Lucifer. Isaiah the prophet was given a vision of Lucifer and the day
in eternity past when he made his self-seeking choices:
Isaiah
14:12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art
thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! 13 For thou hast
said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the
stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides
of the north: 14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be
like the most High. 15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides
of the pit.
When
a Christian leader shows serious indications of pride and self-exaltation, boasting
of his accomplishments, or even the accomplishments of his local church, he is
being inspired by devils. Pride is driving his mouth and mind. The clear proof
of this is that his instincts are all wrong. Who gets all the glory for the building
of the Church?
Matthew
16:18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will
build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
Revelation
5:12 Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power,
and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.
Jude
1:25 To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power,
both now and ever. Amen.
When
preachers boast of their own accomplishments, even when they flatter the members
of the local church, a devil is talking.
Ephesians
3:21 Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world
without end. Amen.
2.
devils are fallen from a better life.
Matthew
25:41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed,
into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
The
destiny of devils results from their fall. They fell from Heaven with Satan, and
they will finish their fall when they are sent to the Lake of Fire.
A
Christian leader who is possessed of devils will show indications that he is fallen.
His first love of the Gospel will not be the same as when he first started preaching.
He will not show the same zeal for the saints which he once had. He will not have
the same personal ethics he once had. His zeal for prayer will have been replaced
with other things.
When
you realize your pastor is falling, find another church at once.
3.
devils are unclean.
Matthew
12:43 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places,
seeking rest, and findeth none. 44 Then he saith, I will return into my house
from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished.
45 Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked
than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man
is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation.
A
Christian leader who is possessed of devils will develop a greater tolerance for
dirt in general. The church house may become tacky, and his home, automobile,
and his personal appearance will take on a shabby and cluttered look. Sin is dirty,
and devils specialize is dirt. Witness the filthy "holy man" of India
in the photo. He believes that being filthy and not taking a bath proves his zeal
to be holy. Saint Francis of Assisi never took a bath either, and he thought he
was much more holy that other people because of that. Fortunately, for the peasants,
he spent most of his time in a monastery secluded. Photo credit: Wiki Commons
In
"contemporary" churches, watch for the pastor to come up with tattoos
and bling bling. Devils cause the natives in heathen lands to mark and scar their
bodies. I grew up in Africa where many people have scars and signs of mutilation
of their bodies. The Church in Africa absolutely forbade this practice in born
again Africans. This is always of devils. God forbade this in the Law of Moses.
Leviticus
19:28 Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any
marks upon you: I am the LORD.
It
is inconceivable to imagine that God changed his mind about body marking and mutilation
just because we are now under Grace instead of under Law. God created Adam without
any tattoos of bling bling in his nose or ears.
When
your pastor, or his kids, turn up with unclean manifestations, a devil is in them
helping them justify their new standards.
4.
devils are violent.
Mark
5:1 And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the
Gadarenes. 2 And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him
out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, 3 Who had his dwelling among
the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains: 4 Because that he
had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked
asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him.
5 And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying,
and cutting himself with stones.
I
saw this in Africa when I was growing up there. Devils love to turn people violent.
And, there is both physical violence and mental violence. When a pastor talks
arrogantly about doing violence, even in self-defense, his mind is violent, and
he is under Satanic influence. He will teach your kids to become violent. A pastor
who is obsessed with the Second Amendment of the US Constitution is a violent
man. This is not to say that defending yourself or family is evil, but when a
Bible believer makes a cause of the Second Amendment, he is working for the devil.
But,
it gets much worse than that. Many pastors these days are violent to the sheep.
They work men to distraction around the church house, they demand giving which
causes poverty of some saints, and they rejoice in excommunicating members for
childish reasons. Then, these pastors go to pastor's rallies, and they stand in
the foyer and tell war stories about how they "churched" (excommunicated)
alleged trouble makers.
A
pastor who develops the persona of being the tough guy in the local church is
a beast. Evangelist Phil Kidd is famous for his look of an inner city thug. This
is Satanic. Can you imagine Jesus walking around Galilee looking at people like
this man in the photo?
Chapter
and verse please, that is, that we are to pray that anyone dies and goes to Hell.
God totally disagrees with Steven Anderson.
2 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.
Pastor
Anderson is NOT WILLING that transvestites get saved. This means that Anderson
is at war with the Word of God, and thus, he is devil possessed.
There
is also the violence of sexually abusing little boys and young woman. This is
only one thing- devil possession. When are we going to start calling things what
they are?
5.
devils teach doctrinal error.
1
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;
Any time
a Christian leader or pastor teaches a doctrine with a new and startling twist,
he is venturing into doctrines of devils. Devilish pastors will teach some totally
unique interpretation of some Bible text, a teaching which exists nowhere else.
This is so that they have a personally patented teaching that you can get only
from them. There are well known Bible teachers around the world who do this, and
we must call it what it is-- doctrine of devils. There is NO interpretation, in
2017, of some Bible text which the Holy Ghost just delivered to your pastor. The
Holy Ghost would not wait over two thousands years to hand out the truth on any
Bible text.
The
most grievous example of this in Fundamental Baptist circles is with "Baptist
Standards." These standards are meant, by Satan, to replace the convicting
work of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer. They are devilish, and the
pastor who promotes them is getting help from devils. If this persists, it must
be assumed that the pastor is not born again and is an agent provocateur for Satan.
This
is not to say that a Bible believer has no standards. But, the whole of the New
Testament is full of teaching given by the Holy Spirit to be taught by pastors.
Once a pastor correctly teaches these lessons, the Holy Spirit goes to work in
your heart and mind and convinces you of something in your life that is sin and
needs to be abandoned. God wants YOU to set the standards, not the pastor.
John
16:7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away:
for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I
will send him unto you. 8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin,
and of righteousness, and of judgment:
2
Timothy 2:19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal,
The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of
Christ depart from iniquity.
Your
pastor is not called of God to depart from iniquity for you. God wants YOU to
do that. When your pastor tells you it is his job to clean up your life, he is
being tutored by Satan, not the Holy Spirit.
A young married brother in a church I pastored told me one day, "Pastor,
please pray for me. I am addicted to soda pop, and I want to be delivered from
the addiction." My first thought was, "That does not seem like such
a big thing." But, the Lord convicted me to take the brother seriously. If
he thought he was in a sin of addiction, I don't care if it seems innocent, THAT
BROTHER us under conviction, and I need to help him win his battle. The brother
won the battle, and the victory was his because he did the right thing for Christ's
sake, not for me.
Another
ongoing curse in the Lord's Church is the man who teaches prophetic biblical texts
with a devilish twist. No example is worse than the myth that God allowed fallen
angels to develop penises when they fell from Heaven to earth. This doctrine of
penisology then claims that the Nephalim in the Old Testament were half human
and half devil giants. If your pastor is teaching this doctrine, he is getting
his inspiration from Satan. There are no penises in Heaven.
In
answering the Sadducees' tricky question about a woman who had seven husband,
and whose wife would she be in Heaven, Jesus said,
Mark
12:24 And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, because ye
know not the scriptures, neither the power of God? 25 For when they shall
rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as
the angels which are in heaven.
If
your pastor can give devils penises, can he give one to Michael the Archangel?
This is a fair question, and it illustrates the wickedness of taking your doctrine
from a devil possessed pastor.
WE HAVE ARRIVED-- JESUS CHRIST HAS PUKED.
Revelation 3:14 And unto the angel of the church
of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness,
the beginning of the creation of God; 15 I know thy works, that thou art neither
cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. 16 So then because thou art lukewarm,
and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. 17 Because thou
sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest
not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
Are you part of Christ's vomit? If your pastor shows most or all of the
following signs of devil possession, YOU ARE THE PUKE OF GOD. You better decide
if that is where you want Christ to find you when he returns for his people.
Here are the tell tale signs that a pastor of a Fundamental Baptist Church
is devil possessed. And, of course, this applies to other church groups, such
as Charismatic, Pentecostal, and Reformed churches which have otherwise had a
reputation of being biblically sound.
1.
Pastoral Rule
The
pastor will insist that he must rule the church as the only human authority. He
will even say such things as, "You follow me, and I will follow Jesus."
Or, "There is only one man standing between your family and Hell..... your
pastor." (Sam Gipp)
This
heresy is based on a deadly infectious disease among Baptist pastors..... Narcissisium
Ecclesiasticum.
Young
men go off to a Christian College. They are taught there that being a pastor is
the highest order of life on the planet. They are also introduced to preachers
who are flattered and exalted by their teachers. These famous pastors are held
up as examples to follow above the Lord Jesus Christ. Witness the cult of Jack
Hylesism. Long after his death the disease of man-worship still lingers.
Once
the young man is called by a local church, he is totally convinced that the sun
rises every day, circles three times around his shoulders, and sets. And, that
is a perfect day in Baptist or Pentecostal Land. Because of this warped view of
the godhood of the pastor of the local church, this man will never be a servant
to the Lord's Church, as the Apostle Paul taught and practiced himself. This pastor
will spend a lot of time making sure the sheep exalt him, and most of you out
there will do just that. Most members of Baptist and Fundamental churches fall
in wonder before their preacher boy, and when he abuses them, they thank him for
it.
Watch
how he tells a Mom he is the boss of her son. We talk about this later. What disturbs
me is the way these people accept this as normal Christian truth in progress.
This
doctrine of the pastor being the ruler of Christ's Church is not taught in the
New Testament. Jesus himself made it very clear whom you are to follow:
Matthew
16:24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him
deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
Any
man who insists that he come between you and Jesus Christ is a damned to Hell
devil. That is a fact, whether it comes from Pope Francis or from your Baptist
preacher.
Let
us review the Bible on who is Head of the Church:
Ephesians
1:19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe,
according to the working of his mighty power, 20 Which he wrought in Christ,
when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly
places, 21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion,
and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is
to come: 22 And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the
head over all things to the church, 23 Which is his body, the fulness of him
that filleth all in all.
This
means that Jesus Christ is the Head of your Sunday School. He is the Head of your
bus program. He is the Head of your music production. He is the Head of your church
government. And, Jesus Christ is the Head of your local church, bar none. Your
pastor, in claming to be ruler of your church, is a blasphemer of THE Head, Jesus
Christ. He is usurping the position God gave Christ, "head over all things
to the church."
There
is one text in the New Testament about pastors telling us what they are to do.
Ephesians
4:7 But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift
of Christ. 8 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity
captive, and gave gifts unto men. 9 (Now that he ascended, what is it but that
he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth? 10 He that descended
is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all
things.) 11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists;
and some, pastors and teachers; 12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the
work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: 13 Till we all
come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a
perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
Pastors
are to teach, teach, teach..... until the saints are "perfect," which
means mature in the Bible. Pastors are to WORK at the ministry, not sit and play
on Facebook and Twitter in their office. Pastors are to "edify" the
saints, and that, according to the Apostle Paul, means teach DOCTRINE. A born
again responsible pastor who does these things will clearly show, in his teaching,
that he has been plowing deep. The pastor who yells clichés and repetitious
word sets every time he preaches is a bastard son. Hebrews 12:8
The
Ephesians pastor will NOT be telling you he is head of anything regarding the
Church of Jesus Christ. He will not be claiming the position of ruler of anything.
There is one ruler of the Church, and that is Jesus Christ. If your pastor claims
the right to rule the church, he is possessed of a devil and getting his doctrine
from Satan.
Tyrannical
pastors will cite the following verse:
Hebrews
13:17 Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch
for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy,
and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you.
In
as much as the pastor is fulfilling his duty as a Bible teacher, and in as much
as he is one of the elders of the local church, he needs to be obeyed. But, when
this call for obedience clearly intrudes on the headship of Jesus Christ over
the believers, such a pastor must be rejected outright.
The
problem in nearly all Baptist churches is that they reject the plurality of elders.
Paul appointed "elders" (plural) when he left a church he had planted
and moved on. He told Titus to appoint "elders" (plural) in the church
he pastored. Timothy was told by Paul to give honor to the "elders"
in the local church. When a church has only deacons, not elders, and only one
pastor, that church is being ruled by a tyrant.
The
devil's pastor is an alpha male wolf, and he also has an alpha female wolf-- his
wife.
The
pastor enforces his headship over the church with sarcastic remarks and with direct
punishment. He will shun any man who is not trotting in the door every time is
is open, and he will be cool to the low givers. This is because he has taken up
with the doctrine of Balaam:
Jude
1:11 Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after
the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core.
Here
is a brother reviewing the characteristics of a tyrannical pastor who uses "pastoral
rule" as a weapon of Satan to destroy Christians. There is a good discussion
of recovery after leaving an abusive church:
Whole
sermons are frequently preached on women in pants and what a worldly man looks
like.
The
pastor brags to other preachers on his church's standards, not on the work of
the Holy Spirit to change people. I attended a Baptist pastor's rally in Detroit
one day, and during an open sharing time, a pastor got up and stated, "I
thank God that pants have never touched my wife's legs." This boasting has
the effect of exalting that pastor, and any pastor who was saved later in life
may well have been married to a lady who wore pants before she was born again.
This is how Satan sends the devil of pride into the heart of a pastor.
The
pastor fails to teach you how to determine what is profane and what is holy on
your own. He preaches a standards sermon and tells you what to do in this or that
situation in life. The Bible tells you something very different will be happening
during the Kingdom reign of Messiah Christ. The ministers of Christ then will
do this:
Ezekiel
44:23 And they shall teach my people the difference between the holy and profane,
and cause them to discern between the unclean and the clean. 24 And in controversy
they shall stand in judgment; and they shall judge it according to my judgments:
and they shall keep my laws and my statutes in all mine assemblies; and they shall
hallow my sabbaths.
A
born again pastor teaches his people to make judgments of what is profane or holy,
what is clean of unclean, with their own zeal without an official "standard"
being given out as an edict. Where a local church is ruled by "Baptist Standards,"
no Christian will ever rise higher than the pastor's standards. If the pastor
is a adulterer, you will soon be one too. From personal reports, I have to assume
that First Baptist of Hammond, Indiana is reeking with adultery after the manner
of Jack Hyles and the pastor who followed him, Jack Schapp. Adultery in these
pastors will have permeated the whole church like yeast in bread.
Baptist
Standards are not taught to make you holy. They are taught to enslave you to the
pastor. He makes the rules, and he enforces them, and he does not give a flip
what God thinks about it. You will obey, or you will be shunned and eventually
"churched," which means tossed out the door. You have seen other Christians
attacked by your pastor, and you will be next if you start doing your own thinking
based on the Bible.
3.
Tithing is the main sermon topic
Does
your pastor preach on tithing and giving about every third sermon?
There
is a reason for this.
Revelation
2:14 But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold
the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children
of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.
2
Peter 2:15 Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the
way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;
Balaam
agreed to curse the Children of Israel for Balac for a fat bribe. Balaam prophesied
for cash. That is what your pastor is doing if he preaches frequently on giving.
The New Testament says very little about giving compared to all the other doctrines
taught there.
Understand
this please. Tithing is NOT in the New Testament teachings of the Apostles. There
is NO obligation in giving in the New Testament. No preacher you know can preach
tithing without going back to Moses' Law, and the Church is not to live under
Moses' Law.
Balaam
was rebuked by a jack ass in Numbers 22:22-31. Maybe YOU need to be God's jack
ass and call out that money grubbing devil possessed pastor of yours. Be near
a door when you do it though. You will be summarily excommunicated at once.
You
really need to study to see what the Bible really says about giving and tithing.
I have a couple of articles on this journal for your edification:
Now,
leave that son of Satan and his money grubbing sermons, and go yonder to a Baptist
church where the whole Bible is taught, and begging for cash is not the main event.
4.
Shunning and haunting
Before
there was such a thing as a Baptist Church, during the 1500s the Anabaptists had
separated from the Reformed churches of Luther and Calvin and were preaching a
simple biblical Gospel. They also required their converts to be rebaptized because
the Reformed churches were accepting the baptism of their converts when they were
Catholics. This is clearly correct of the Anabaptists because baptism is always
AFTER confession of faith in Jesus Christ.
The
Anabaptists did many things right, and they taught the Bible literally. But, they
started adding rules. Clothing had to be plain and simple, and new methods of
work and farming were condemned. This is true of many Anabaptists, such as some
Mennonites and all Amish, until today. Well before the 1500s had passed, the Anabaptists
had started teaching "Shunning." This was a requirement of their members
to shun and totally ostracize anyone who left their churches or was excommunicated.
This shunning was vicious, and it is still practiced today. There are Hutterites
in Canada who shun one another because one group's ladies have red polka dots
on their head scarves, while the other Hutterites have green polka dots.
Shunning
is cruel, in that, it forces Christians to treat other Christians far worse then
they treat the lost in the world. The shunned person is cut off from family and
friends completely, and those who refuse to shun these victims are themselves
put on the shun list.
Fundamental
Baptists practice this devilish shunning teaching. Pastors will identify some
church member who is not attending, or who has moved to another church, and he
will tell his members to shun them at all times. Do not even greet them in the
market place.
Now,
if the issue were sound doctrine, we might agree with shunning.
Romans
16:17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences
contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. 18 For they
that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good
words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.
Verse
17 clearly teaches that there is a time to shun people, but it is only for false
doctrine. The fact that a member moves his membership to another church is not
false doctrine. Rarely is shunning, as practiced by Baptists, because of false
doctrine.
Verse
18 implies that Paul is mostly talking about preachers or teachers in the local
church.
But,
when some member is lax in attendance, or when some lady is seen in slacks during
the week, this is not a doctrinal issue. The preacher will claim is it, but the
truth is, it is all about Baptist Standards. This person has defied the pastor's
rule book for daily living, and she must be shunned. I have heard of Baptist Christians
being shunned for the smallest details of life, or even for not being dedicated
enough to the pastor. When some pastors are approached, alone and by a humble
man, about some teaching point, the end result is often that the seeker is "churched,"
which means excommunicated, and he is then shunned by the whole church. All this
for asking a question about the Sunday sermon.
Preachers
who rule the local church by the threat of shunning are possessed of devils. You,
sir, have NO business keeping your family in that church. It has been my observation,
from personal experience and from hundreds of pathetic stories in email, that
preachers who rule by shunning are either carrying on an affair with a woman in
the church, or these preachers are sodomites. When you see a church with a long
shunning list, that church is a habitation of devils.
The
latest and most ugly innovation on shunning, which came up in the life of a reader
of this journal, I will call haunting. Some pastors, and their men, will actually
follow the shunned person to intimidate them. This is done to terrify the victim
so that they stop trying to make contact with former church member friends or
family. One pastor and his youth director followed a lady home at night with their
car lights turned off. One man who had exposed a pastor's teaching errors was
visited by the pastor and a ex-Marine thug. We are getting to the point where
Baptists may soon need a permit to carry to protect themselves from former pastors.
I
cannot be strong enough about this. When someone you know is born again, and who
you love in Christ, is shunned and even followed and shadowed after being excommunicated
from a church, do whatever you have to do to intimidate that pastor and force
him to back off. It may come down to that pastor needing to be slapped around
somewhat to convince him. Many Fundamental Baptist preachers have a violent temper,
and they assume that no one in the community will touch a pastor, even if he is
being cruel and vicious. It is time to teach such a pastor with thorns.
Judges
8:13 And Gideon the son of Joash returned from battle before the sun was up, 14
And caught a young man of the men of Succoth, and enquired of him: and he described
unto him the princes of Succoth, and the elders thereof, even threescore and seventeen
men. 15 And he came unto the men of Succoth, and said, Behold Zebah and Zalmunna,
with whom ye did upbraid me, saying, Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna now in
thine hand, that we should give bread unto thy men that are weary? 16 And
he took the elders of the city, and thorns of the wilderness and briers, and with
them he taught the men of Succoth.
You,
you bastard son of Satan, who destroys families and offend the saints with your
devilish cult of shunning hate, I have a word for you:
Jude
1:8 Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and
speak evil of dignities. 9 Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with
the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing
accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee. 10 But these speak evil of those
things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in
those things they corrupt themselves. 11 Woe unto them! for they have gone
in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and
perished in the gainsaying of Core.
I
sincerely pray to God that this article will destroy certain wretched devil possessed
pastors among us.

You can lose your salvation during an altar call
"If
you are not here every time the doors are open, why should I believe you are born
again?"
"If
you never come forward during an altar call, are you even born again?"
These
preachers claim to believe that "once saved, always saved." But, during
their altar calls they do anything possible to cause born again people to question
their salvation. These hick burp preachers are desperate to see the altar full
of people. This gives them the self-satisfaction that they are really moving the
people and the church is "getting right."
The
reason for this is evident..... These preachers do not really believe the Holy
Spirit of God is the only one who does the convincing, as Jesus said he was for
the Church Age:
John
16:7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away:
for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I
will send him unto you. 8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of
sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:
The
Comforter is the Holy Spirit. It is not the preacher's job to convince men of
sin. It is not his job to bring on the results of preaching and teaching. I believe
that 95% or all Fundamental Baptist preachers simply do NOT believe the Holy Spirit
has the power to convince sinners of their sin and need for salvation. I suspect
YOU do not believe that the one preaching or witnessing should let the Holy Spirit
convince sinners. This is a heresy in the Church today. This practical doctrine
is why thousands of preachers give long knock down dragged out altar calls.
This
practice also is based on the premise that you are too stupid to understand the
message and the Word of God. The pastor believes that he has to massage your mind
with tricks and threats, or you will not catch on. This is not only an insult
to God the Holy Spirit- It is an insult to YOU. Your conscience is working just
fine. You caught the meaning of the Word of God and the message, and you have
already decided you need to take care of something in your life. But, the preacher
is absolutely convinced you are too stupid to reach this point on your own. You
need to "go forward" and weep and wail at the altar before he believes
you got it.
Jesus
was walking through town. He never said a word, and he was not even preaching.
Jesus simply invited himself to dinner with a fellow sitting in a tree nearby:
Luke
19:2 And, behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus, which was the chief among the
publicans, and he was rich. 3 And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could
not for the press, because he was little of stature. 4 And he ran before,
and climbed up into a sycomore tree to see him: for he was to pass that way. 5
And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said unto him,
Zacchaeus, make haste, and come down; for to day I must abide at thy house. 6
And he made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully. 7 And when they
saw it, they all murmured, saying, That he was gone to be guest with a man that
is a sinner. 8 And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord; Behold, Lord,
the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any
man by false accusation, I restore him fourfold. 9 And Jesus said unto him,
This day is salvation come to this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.
The
Bible says nothing about Jesus teaching. Jesus did not give an invitation to Zacchaeus
to repent, come forward, and weep white hot tears on a special piece of carpet
yonder. Zacchaeus voluntarily made his confession or repentance, and Christ blessed
him.
Having
said all this, perhaps your pastor is not like this. Do you ever go to him alone
and tell him some life change you decided to make after he preached a sermon the
Holy Spirit used to talk to you? That is a good preacher you have, and he does
need to hear that there is fruit from his zeal to teach. My most priceless memories
as a pastor have been when some saint told me, maybe weeks later, that they changed
something in their life because they were convicted by a sermon I preached. That
is pure gold to a real servant of God.
6.
Some saints are more special to God than others
This
is determined by perfect attendance, double tithing, coming out for visitation,
and enslavement to the pastor. I have email on file of a man whose wife had been
virtually held hostage by the pastor. She was the church secretary, and she taught
classes and did many other tasks to pamper the pastor. The man simply had no personal
time with his wife because she was exhausted. This pastor was possessed of devils.
How could a man of rational character do this without being driven to it by Satan
himself?
Groveling
before the mighty pastor is NOT what Jesus had in mind for pastors to be doing
in his Church.
Seldom
is a saint blessed by the pastor for witnessing on his own. Devil possessed pastors
demand that their men appear every Thursday evening like robots to do "door
to door visitation." This process produces nothing. I have tried it with
various twists and methods of approach and presentation. Most people are polite
because the man standing at the door is a local preacher, but they have NO interest
in the Gospel or going to church. They also feel obligated to convince the preacher
that they are very religious. This results in nothing but mockery of the victims
later by the pastor.
If
you are a man and fail to turn up to go on visitation, the pastor will mock your
zeal for Christ, and often in front of other men in the church. He will let you
know in sermons that, "I have no reason to believe you are born again."
Again, your personal confession of faith in Christ is attacked if you do not jump
when the preacher jerks your leash.
So,
if you are faithful to come out for visitation you will be praised openly from
the pulpit and used as an example of a faithful servant of Jesus Christ. You,
sir, are a blasted brat if you inhale the incense of this wicked flattery. You
are not to serve Christ so that you can receive the praise of men and be exalted
before other members. You are nothing but a sniveling brown nose to the pastor.
A
devil inspired pastor will teach that witnessing is to be done by bringing unsaved
visitors to church. You are not to invite them to consider Jesus Christ as the
Savior. You are not to use your home and work place to persuade men that Christ
will forgive their sins and give them eternal life. You are to convince them to
come to church with you. The only soul winner in most Fundamental Baptist churches
is the pastor, and the place to "get saved" is on the ten by twenty
floor section of carpet in front of the pulpit. The pastor wants it this way so
that he gets the credit for all the souls allegedly saved in his church. This
sort of pastor is a spiritual criminal and serving Satan well.
Almost
all of these people who walk the aisle to "get saved" never come back
again. When you visit them later, they are disgusted with the church and you for
doing a con job on them. This has been proven by students enslaved to this system
at First Baptist Church of Hammond, Indiana who were even spit on by victims of
Jack Hyles' altar call tricks.
Again,
you will be profusely praised by the pastor if you bring herds of suckers to visit
you church where the pastor can work his persuasive tricks on them to get them
down the aisle. You will be lifted up with Satanic flattery by the pastor from
the pulpit regularly. Some of you idiots love this and imagine you are doing God
a great service. You are in reality the slave of a pastor driven by devils. Your
pastor is using you to help him carve notches on his gun.
Elihu,
the only godly friend Job had, spoke about the flattery you crave from your pastor
for being his little porch monkey:
Job
32:21 Let me not, I pray you, accept any man's person, neither let me give flattering
titles unto man. 22 For I know not to give flattering titles; in so doing
my maker would soon take me away.
Solomon
said, Proverbs 26:28 A lying tongue hateth those that are
afflicted by it; and a flattering mouth worketh ruin.
Proverbs
29:5 A man that flattereth his neighbour spreadeth a net for his feet.
Your
pastor is digging a pit for you to fall into and make a fool of yourself before
God and man when he flatters you before the congregation. Unknown to you, some
of the more godly men in your church see right through this and have no respect
for your self-righteous folly.
Furthermore,
The Antichrist, the impersonation of Satan himself during the Great Tribulation,
will take in his followers by flattering them:
Daniel
11:21 And in his estate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give
the honour of the kingdom: but he shall come in peaceably, and obtain the kingdom
by flatteries.
Flattery
is one of Satan's most powerful tools. He used it on Eve by flattering her and
telling her she could become a goddess by disobeying God. You need to reject the
flattery of your pastor, stop being his slave boy, and leave that church to find
fellowship where the pastor is a truly godly man. Also, find a church where the
pastor rejoices when souls are saved between Sundays as a result of witnessing
members.
7.
The devil's church is measured by its numerical growth, bus program, and offerings.
This
is the impression I get from listening to preachers when they have their gatherings.
They stand around the foyer of the meeting place and brag on their numbers and
accomplishments, not on Jesus Christ. For years, men like Lee Roberson have been
called on to speak at preacher's conferences to tell how to get the numbers up
and grow a church from 75 members to 5000 in three hours and forty five minutes.
If your pastor thrives on numbers and demands that you help him get the count
up, your preacher is being inspired by devils.
David
numbered the people of Israel, and God punished him severely by causing 70,000
men of Israel to die of a plague. A pastor who is obsessed with numbers, but is
never chastened by God, is not being chastened because he is not born again and
belongs to God. God will not tolerate this numbers racket from any man of God.
Missions
giving is also a superstitious talisman to many preachers. A pastor will have
a deep lust for huge offerings. This is always because he is full of greed and
wants the church to pamper him with wealth. To try to cover up for his own greed,
a pastor like this will promote missions giving and boast of how much the church
gives to missions. The sanctuary will be surrounded by fifty flags from nations
around he world, photos of missionaries they support, and prayer letters posted
regularly from the missionaries. But, the church will give each of these missionaries
a measly $35 a month, as if the church is inhabited by big givers. There may also
be a huge map in the foyer with little red lights for each missionary.
Johnny
the Baptist, an evangelist friend of mine, told of arriving at one of these churches,
and there was the huge map with loads of missionaries around the margin and the
little red lights. Johnny realized one of the missionaries had died two years
before, and he took the pastor aside and cautioned him about this. Johnny thought
the pastor was unaware that the missionary was dead. The pastor became enraged
and at once canceled Johnny's meeting that evening. The pastor was clearly pocketing
the money being given to that missionary. Johnny told me he had seen this trick
more than once.
When
your pastor brags constantly about the giving in your church, he is possessed
by a devil of greed. He is flattering you and the members by making you believe
you are doing God a big favor by digging deep into your finances to fund the preacher's
spending programs.
What
is the measure of a sound Bible believing local church? Jesus found one such church
here:
Revelation
2:8 And unto the angel of the church in Smyrna write; These things saith the first
and the last, which was dead, and is alive; 9 I know thy works, and tribulation,
and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they
are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan. 10 Fear none of those
things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into
prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou
faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.
The
church at Smyrna was a poor church, but they were rich in that they stayed faithful
to Christ when they suffered.
Revelation
3:7 And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he
that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth,
and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth; 8 I know thy works:
behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou
hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name. 9
Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and
are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet,
and to know that I have loved thee. 10 Because thou hast kept the word of
my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come
upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. 11 Behold, I come
quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.
Twice
Christ commends the Philadelphian church for keeping his Word. I church that is
cruelly prospering is doing so in the teaching and preaching of the Word of God,
not in its offering plate.
The
Apostle Paul had harsh words for preachers who lust for riches, especially by
fleecing the Lord's sheep.
1
Timothy 6:9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into
many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.
10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted
after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many
sorrows. 11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness,
godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.
That
last word, "meekness," is the quality least found in greedy preachers
who preach on giving every other Sunday. They are full of themselves, and their
bombast, bluster, and bull is repulsive and overbearing. When a church is saturated
with money greed, especially from the pulpit, it is time for YOU to move on down
the road.
8.
Heresy: Women are to be subject to the pastor first, and then to their husbands
If
your pastor teaches that every member, including your wife and kids, are under
his authority first, he is possessed of devils. He also is hustling your wife,
sir. And, in some Fundamental Baptist churches this sort of pastor is hustling
your daughter. We saw a very raw example of that with Doug Philips of the Patriarchy
Movement and by Jack Schaap at First Baptist of Hammond, Indiana.
This
filthy doctrine of devils comes from a pastor who also teaches pastoral rule of
the local church. He wants this control of the wives of the husbands for a reason.
There is NO innocent motive going on here.
The
head of every family is the father.
Ephesians
5:23 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.
The
pastor is NOT the head of your wife. Nor is the pastor the head of the Church.
You are the head of your wife, and by implication, of your whole family. Throughout
the whole Bible we see examples of fathers taking the headship of their homes,
as with Abraham, Joseph, David, and Peter. It was when the first man, Adam, let
his wife lead that sin entered the Garden of Eden. If you let a devil of a preacher
at your wife, sir, you are wicked. She is to submit to no man other than you.
1
Corinthians 11:3 But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ;
and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.
There
is absolutely NOTHING obscure about that teaching. Any Baptist preacher who claims
he has the spot between the husband and his wife is a blasphemer. When a pastor
approaches any man's wife about anything the least bit sensitive, including asking
her to do some task for the local church, that wife has NO business paying any
attention to that pastor. She must at once report the pastor to her husband. The
husband must go to the pastor and rebuke him. If the pastor goes off in anger
or accusation, that husband must at once take his family out of all contact with
that pastor and find another local church to attend. No exceptions. If the pastor
makes a nuisance of himself, take out a restraining order against him.
9.
Certain Christian colleges are exalted
Is
you pastor a front man for Crown College, Tennessee Temple, or Pensacola Christian
College? Or, is he pushing some other school? This means your pastor is captive
to the ideology of that school. I say "ideology" because this is not
about doctrine. This is your pastor promoting a school because he exalts institutions
above Christ himself. I do not care it the school is a good one. The practice
of promoting schools from the local church is wicked. It belittles anyone who
went to another school, and it devilizes someone who went to a really wretched
school and repented of it. One of the most wretched cases of this is Bob Jones
University. Only the people who went to Bob Jones University are right with God.
Jude
1:16 These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their
mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men's persons in admiration because
of advantage.
Your
pastor, in exalting some school, and the leaders of the school, is flattering
them to you so that the school will keep your pastor on their "Approved List
of Pastors." That way, when he is done using your church to pad his resume,
he can check in with the President of the college, and the President will reward
his promotion of the school by helping your pastor find a bigger church.
That
is why your pastor invites that Christian college to send their singing group
to your church every year. This adds points to his score card back in the school
President's office.
The
last time I agreed to have a Christian college group sing in a church I pastored,
one of the young man and a young lady in the group were openly flirting with each
other to excess. Our church people saw it and asked me what was going on. I called
the college and reported it, and I vowed to never have another college group perform
in a church I pastored.
10.
Patriotism is preached, including the Divine Inspiration of the US Constitution
I
am writing this right after President Donald Trump was inaugurated. I have learned
that all over America pastors are claiming that God will use President Trump to
being revival, great blessing, and what amounts to a "New Age" of the
Church to America.
Is
your pastor waving the American flag in the pulpit? Is he telling you that President
Donald Trump is, "God's man for America"? John Newton, long ago, rebuked
ministers in England for preaching patriotism along with the Bible.
Patriotism
is profane in the true meaning of the word. In the Bible, everything which is
not holy is profane. The word "profane" in the King James Bible speaks
of "common". This means that some profane things are of this world but
are not sinful or intrinsically evil, like apples, and like patriotism. Other
profane things are wicked, like porn and pimps.
The
Bible speaks of this in regard to the time of the Kingdom reign of Messiah Jesus
Christ.
Ezekiel
44:23 And they shall teach my people the difference between the holy and profane,
and cause them to discern between the unclean and the clean. 24 And in controversy
they shall stand in judgment; and they shall judge it according to my judgments:
and they shall keep my laws and my statutes in all mine assemblies; and they shall
hallow my sabbaths.
Patriotism
is clearly common, for it is not holy. Patriotism is a mongrel retreat where filthy
minded and adulterous pastors hide behind a popular theme. They no longer have
the power of the Holy Spirit in their preaching, so they give the masses a rush
by wrapping the Bible in the American flag.
As
to the US Constitution, its only noble principal is that it was written in such
a vague manner that it can still be massaged around to fit the needs of our day
after over two hundred years. That, according to historians, is a well written
document. The Amendments are very specific and actually do guard certain rights.
But, the US Constitution is NOT written in the model of the Word of God, nor did
God inspire it. The last inspired writing was the last chapter of the book of
The Revelation in the Bible. God clearly chose to cut off inspired writing here:
Revelation
22:18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this
book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues
that are written in this book: 19 And if any man shall take away from the
words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book
of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this
book.
If
the US Constitution is inspired, then God lied. The above verses make it very
clear that he had no intention of giving any man inspiration from that day forward.
It is doctrine of devils to teach anything, written or spoken after the above
verses were given, is inspired of God.
For
you preachers whose devil now causes you to rage at me, I have an assignment for
you. Please tell me, in under 1000 words, how you would explain to the Apostle
Paul the difference between the three following patriotic videos. If you stay
with the first video you will see a demon possessed preacher preaching patriotism
and threatening physical violence against other Americans in the name of Jesus.
Two
of these patriotic events were in the public square, and one was in church. Not
even in the days of Israel did God call for the military to put on a show in the
temple or the tabernacle. Why has your preacher brought patriotism to your church?
For the
record, the Russian parade was the 2015 Victory Parade celebrating the deaths
of 27 million Russian soldiers who died fighting the Germans in WW II. SEE
THE WHOLE PARADE
Also, here is the MOST EMOTIONAL FIRST
VICTORY PARADE 1945
If emotion is the measure of patriotism, this parade tops them all. Nearly every
soul in Red Square had lost a good friend or relative in that war. In fact, emotion
is the most deadly aspect in patriotism. Feelings are leading, while the mind
follows, which is upside down.
Romans
10:2 For I bear them record that they
have a zeal of God , but not according
to knowledge .
11.
All other Fundamental Baptist churches in the area are suspect and should not
be attended
I
knew a pastor who was a personal friend of another pastor across town. They even
had one another speak in their pulpits as guests. But, if someone in the church
mentioned that they wanted to visit the other preacher's church, this pastor would
find some clever way to cast dispersion on the church of his friend. This was
done to keep his members from going to have fellowship with other Christians.
Why
is this? Most Fundamental Baptist preachers are totally possessive of their members.
They will tell any story that will work to keep their people from visiting another
church. The irony is, the Apostle Paul encouraged the saints to have fellowship
with one another.
Ephesians
3:8 Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that
I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ; 9 And
to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning
of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:
The
mystery of the Gospel is SUPPOSED TO create fellowship among believers.
1
John 1:7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship
one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all
sin.
The
Apostle John was not in any way limiting Christian fellowship to one local church.
The very instinct of a Bible believer is to seek, find, and rejoice in fellowship
with other Christians. And, your local church is not the only place to find that
fellowship.
So,
a preacher who discourages you from visiting another local church because you
like more fellowship is practicing a doctrine of devils. God wants you to find
more fellowship. And, you are owned by he who bought you with his precious blood,
Jesus Christ. Your pastor should rejoice when you find new Christian friends.
What your devil pastor is afraid of is that you will find some real Spirit lead
Bible teaching and want to leave for the real thing.
My
friend Jay Crosby was a wrestling promoter before he got saved. He said the slogan
in professional wrestling was, "Nickels and noses and a butt every eighteen
inches." A possessive pastor is on the same save length.
12.
Wednesday night is given over to children's clubs, while adults have "Bible
study"
During
the Wednesday evening service, prayer is perfunctory and impersonal, indeed, prayer
may be totally missing. The concept of a "prayer meeting" is gone from
most Baptist churches. Some pastors hand out a list of prayer requests, orally
or on a sheet of paper, but to spend time in real prayer is no longer important
to these pastors. This is because Satan has control of those preachers.
Satan
knows the power of a Bible believer in prayer, so Satan may actually lead a pastor
to teach the Bible so that prayer is eliminated. Bible teaching can be twisted
and made of none effect if Satan has control of the pastor. But, Satan has a real
problem trying to destroy "effectual fervent prayers" of true believers.
James
5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may
be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
You
will be tempted to believe that the program the church has for your children on
Wednesday evening justifies the lack of prayer. This is another lie of Satan.
Your kids are being shown that playing, hand clapping, and Christian entertainment
are better than prayer, so they will become as muddled as you are as to the nature
of true Christian zeal.
You
need to find a local church where prayer is a serious part of church life. This
means that there will be prayer on Wednesday evening, but it also means that there
is a prayer chain of some sort so that urgent issues of the members can be passed
around BETWEEN SUNDAYS so that people are in prayer for one another daily.
13.
Worship does not exist on Sunday morning
Singing
is fast, and much shouting comes off like a football game. In the most Satanic
Fundamental Baptist churches, hymn books are thrown across the room during singing,
and men ""run the bases and take off their coats and fling them around.
Congregational singing is very limited, and often the platform activities are
the main event. Offerings are long and often two or even three offerings are taken.
The pastor sits on the platform presiding over every minute of alleged worship.
There
is no time for "worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness." The pianist
and organist are often sex pots who dress in tight clothes. There is NEVER a point
during the service when the people are encouraged to spontaneously praise the
Lord and give prayer requests. The Holy Ghost is basically blocked from leading.
Another
sign of devils at work in your church is if you pastor is a clown and behaves
like a jerk during church services and while preaching. I hear of "running
the bases" where people, or the pastor himself, will take off running, and
go round and round the room yelling like an idiot. I hear of people in the congregation
throwing hymn books across the room. What is this goon show? How is the Holy Spirit
at work in this folly? And, if it is not the Holy Spirit, then is it not of devils?
Can you imagine Jesus at the temple throwing scrolls around the room? Can you
mentally see Jesus, with Peter on his back, running around and around the temple?
If you can, YOU are devil possessed.
14.
Devil possessed Fundamental Baptist pastors will usually be King James Bible Only
But,
they will not have any idea what the issue is. They may know that the NIV or NASB
take away texts from the Bible, but they will not know the history of the King
James Bible. They will also mock at those who want to discuss the two Greek Bible
heritages of the Bible. This is the real foundation of why the King James is the
Word of God. In other words, devil possessed Baptist preachers are lazy and refuse
to inform themselves why there is a battle raging in some area of Christian zeal.
A man possessed by a devil, will show himself up sooner or later by his self-satisfied
utter stupidity on certain matters.
15.
A devil possessed pastor is a dumb fool
When
your preacher says something like, "I'm just a dumb country boy....."
you better take his word for it. The man of God is not called to be dumb and satisfied
with his dumbness when it comes to the wisdom which is from above. God tells a
dumb Christian man how to cure his dumbness:
James
1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally,
and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
Proverbs
3:13 Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.
Ecclesiastes
7:12 For wisdom is a defence, and money is a defence: but the excellency of knowledge
is, that wisdom giveth life to them that have it.
Hang
around a dumb preacher long enough, and you will be just as dumb and repulsive
as he is to other Bible believers. You need to know that some of us out here,
when we listen to you talk, can tell that you have been sitting at the feet of
a preacher owned by the devil. And, if we can figure it out, you sure are not
going to fool God.
GET
OUT OF THAT CHURCH AT ONCE.
Do
you now think I am going too far to call some Fundamental Baptist preachers devil
possessed? Perhaps you will want to ask yourself if you REALLY agree with God
in the following Bible text:
2
Corinthians 11:13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming
themselves into the apostles of Christ. 14 And no marvel; for Satan himself
is transformed into an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is no great thing if
his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end
shall be according to their works.
Paul
was not talking about Buddhist monks, Benny Hinn, or some obvious heretics. Paul
was telling the church at Corinth that there would come to them men who behaved
just like the Apostles, minister righteousness, and seem to spread light where
ever they go. But, they are sent directly from Satan.
Is
that YOUR pastor? If so, why are you hanging around?
WHAT
DO CHARISMATIC DEVIL POSSESSED PREACHERS TEACH?
It
is urgent, and quite fair, to add a section here on Charismatic devil possessed
pastors. If you are Pentecostal, AOG, or in some Charismatic local church, all
of the above discussion still applies to you. Many of the devilish aspects found
in Fundamental Baptist churches are present in your kind of fellowships. This
is simply because Satan uses all his bag of tricks anywhere men will go for them.
The following is not meant to devilize the Charismatic Movement out of hand. It
is simply a fact that Satan has infiltrated your world the same as any other.
1.
Name it and Claim it- The Prosperity Gospel
Another
way to describe this is, "You Own God," or, "God is your slave."
First,
how did God tell us a Christian would prosper?
James
2:1 My brethren, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory,
with respect of persons. 2 For if there come unto your assembly a man with
a gold ring, in goodly apparel, and there come in also a poor man in vile raiment;
3 And ye have respect to him that weareth the gay clothing, and say unto him,
Sit thou here in a good place; and say to the poor, Stand thou there, or sit here
under my footstool: 4 Are ye not then partial in yourselves, and are become
judges of evil thoughts? 5 Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen
the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised
to them that love him? 6 But ye have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress
you, and draw you before the judgment seats? 7 Do not they blaspheme that
worthy name by the which ye are called?
This
doctrine of devils says that God will not bless you financially if you don't put
"seed money" into his work. That work, of course, is the pocket of the
preacher speaking to you on the subject. Nowhere in the Gospels did Jesus claim
that if his followers would give him an offering, God would be obligated to bless
them richly.
Micah
3:11 The heads thereof judge for reward, and the priests thereof teach for hire,
and the prophets thereof divine for money: yet will they lean upon the LORD, and
say, Is not the LORD among us? none evil can come upon us.
And,
here is a preacher blaspheming the name of Jesus Christ by exalting the rich and
demeaning the poor.
Luke
6:20 And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed be ye poor:
for yours is the kingdom of God.
And,
Solomon said, under inspiration:
Proverbs
15:17 Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred
therewith.
Who
would want to be poor on purpose?
2
Corinthians 8:9 For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he
was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might
be rich.
When
your pastor preaches that God wants you rich in worldly wealth and cash, he is
preaching a sermon straight from the Satanic bible from Hell. You are a great
fool if you hang around and cover the son of Satan with money.
2.
Healing and other alleged Faith tricks
The
clear proof that a devil is in your pastor is that people he heals are not COMPLETELY
healed. Jesus never only partly healed anyone. Check it out. And, he never told
people he healed, "You will get better in the morning." When Jesus healed,
he finished the job.
The
next proof that your pastor is devil possessed is that he will not heal everyone
who asks for healing. Jesus did not filter who he would heal the way modern "faith
healers" do.
If
your pastor will not heal people during the day and the week as he walks around
town, like Jesus did, he is devil possessed. Jesus healed people and cast out
devils where ever he found them.
Finally,
if your pastor will not raise people from the dead, like Jesus did with Lazarus
and the widow's son, your pastor is devil possessed. These preachers boldly claim
to have the same power Jesus had when he healed people in Galilee. Put up, or
shut up, preacher.
And,
it is wicked for YOU to defend a pastor who does not heal people the same way
Jesus did. Call him what he is..... a devil.
Matthew
7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly
they are ravening wolves.
3.
Prophecy
When
your pastor makes a prophecy, write it down. If it does not come to pass exactly
like he gave it, he is possessed of devils. Do not allow him to modify it later.
Do not allow him to explain why it did not come to pass. When one of God's prophets
in the Bible gave a prophecy, it came to pass in the finest details. If Bible
prophets made a false prophecy, they were stoned.
Beware
of prophecies given by pastors which are simply a rehash
of prophecies which already exist in the Bible. David Wilkerson gave a prophecy
long ago for which he is famous. He prophesied the downfall of America morally
and other prophecies which were already in the Bible and prophesied by the Apostle
Paul. Wilkerson simply added some details, and gullible fools imagine he got something
special from God.
Totally
reject prophecies about YOU and your future. If they do not come to pass, the
prophet will claim you failed to claim your blessings, or he will tell you there
is sin in your life preventing God from working. Be especially suspect of prophecies
about you doing great things for God. This is meant to flatter you, and the power
of suggestion may also push you to make that prophecy come to pass. This is pure
psychological manipulation by the alleged prophet.
Are
prophecies for the Church Age?
There
were a handful of prophecies in the New Testament which had to do with life at
that time, but they were ONLY during the period before the Bible was compiled
and the Epistles were written to the churches to guide them. Tongues and prophecies
were also strictly limited in number and were always accompanied by interpretation.
These mass jabbering session in tongues DID NOT EXIST IN THE EARLY CHURCH.
I
also have seen Charismatic prophets who gave prophecies but had not interpretation
or application of the prophecy. This is wicked. It leaves the church to rummage
around in their own imaginations to find a meaning for the prophecy.
Also,
tongues speaking and prophecies had a limited time period for their operation
in New Testament churches:
1
Corinthians 13:8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they
shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge,
it shall vanish away. 9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. 10
But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done
away.
Charismatic
leaders mock at Bible believers here. They ask, "Are we then stupid? Have
we no knowledge?" Stupid is the man who refuses to see what is being taught
here. Tongues, prophecies, and knowledge by special revelation are the subject.
Once the Bible was compiled by the Early Church Fathers, soon after the last Apostle
died, tongues, prophecies, and special revelation to edify the Church ceased.
Church history shows no tongues speaking from around 200 AD to 1900 AD when an
old Black preacher in Azuza, California put his head into a butter box, and when
he pulled it out he was speaking in tongues.
Any
Charismatic leader, preacher, or YOU who claim to be giving the Lord's Church
special revelation by speaking in tongues, or by giving prophecies, is possessed
of devils. You need deliverance if this is what you are doing. I am not claiming
you lost your salvation. What I am telling you is that the power of the tongues
you speak in is from a devil sitting on your shoulder, and you need to get rid
of that devil at once.
4.
Self-Exaltation by Mr. Wonderful
It
is typical that alleged prophets and faith healers talk a lot about all the people
they have healed and all the prophecies they have given. They boast of being 100%
accurate in prophecies.
Jesus
never exalted himself by boasting to the crowds about all the healings he did,
and he especially did not brag about being an amazing prophet. Jesus prophecies
either came true on schedule, or they are still in place and will be fulfilled
during the Great Tribulation or during Kingdom reign.
Also,
do not believe stories about "binding." Many Charismatic preachers and
evangelists claim to be able to bind the prince (Satan or a devil) in your city
or elsewhere. This is rubbish. Jesus never bound devils in Jerusalem or other
cities in Galilee.
One
Word of Faith creep claimed he was late for a meeting, and he bound all the stop
lights en route. He claimed they all turned green as he came to them so that he
never had to stop. Stop lights are timed to sequence for many blocks, so that,
if you drive along at the speed limit the lights will change to green as you come
along. This preacher was lying by claiming to have power over stop lights. Another
creep claimed he filled his gas tank in his car by prayer. This too is balderdash.
One
lady told me that her family lived on the same bowl of spaghetti for a week, and
it never went down. This is a case of the lady wanting to convince me that she
had the same power to produce food which Jesus had as he fed the five thousand.
If I was going to claim a miracle of making food I would make endless shrimp Étouffée,
not spaghetti.
If
you are a sucker for thrills, and if you refuse to hold preachers accountable
for their words and actions, you will become the slave of devils as they perform
tricks in front of you.
2
Thessalonians 2:8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall
consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of
his coming: 9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all
power and signs and lying wonders,
Matthew
12:37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be
condemned.
5.
Signs are for the Jews
Charismatic
leaders and preachers mock at Bible believer who question them. They ask, "Are
you telling God he cannot do miracles today?" They then claim that Jesus
wants to do miracles through faith healers the same way he did long ago in Galilee.
The
issue is not about restricting God. It is about God restricting himself. He has
chosen to work through faith today, but in answer to prayer, AND ON HIS SCHEDULE.
James
5:13 Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry? let him sing psalms.
14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let
them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: 15 And
the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and
if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him. 16 Confess your faults
one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual
fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
This
is happening inside the Lord's Church today as people pray for one another. God
answers these prayers in his time, and sometimes he withholds healing, as he did
with Paul when he asked to be healed of his "thorn in the flesh." The
big rally of thousands of people, with a famous Amos faith healer presiding, is
not what James was describing above.
Furthermore,
the healing which Jesus did was for a special purpose. The Church Age was not
destined to see the same signs and wonders that Jesus did. The Jews would not
believe in Jesus unless they say signs and wonders.
1
Corinthians 1:21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew
not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.
22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:
John
2:18 Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign shewest thou unto us,
seeing that thou doest these things? 19 Jesus answered and said unto them,
Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. 20 Then said the
Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up
in three days? 21 But he spake of the temple of his body.
Jesus
had to show signs to the Jews, or they would not have believed. Many believed
in him when they saw the miracles he did and the resurrection of Lazarus. But,
the Greeks seek wisdom. This is for the Gentiles. The evidence of the power of
God today is through preaching, not sign miracles.
1
Corinthians 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness;
but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
1
Corinthians 2:4 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of
man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:
If
you cannot stay on the path to Heaven and be content with Bible preaching that
is powerful, that is, if you cannot believe the doctrines of the Bible without
seeing healings and hearing prophecies, you are limping on both legs. You are
a rebel against the plan of God. God wants you to walk by faith, not by seeing
a big show put on by Benny Hinn, Kenneth Copeland or your pastor. Indeed, the
show of healing and prophecy your pastor produces is the work of devils.
6.
Dirty preachers and dirty preaching
Many
preachers today, especially in Charismatic circles, have a potty mouth. They talk
in profane language and curse anyone who questions them. Benny Hinn said on TBN
that he looked all through the Bible for a verse that told him he could get a
machine gun and kill all his enemies, like ME.
Furthermore,
these Charismatic leaders and preachers all too often LIVE dirty. They get divorces
and keep right on allegedly healing and prophesying for God. God hates divorce,
and he will not empower a divorced preacher. But, YOU keep right on following
the creep, don't you?
And,
these Charismatic leaders keep falling into bed with whores, like Jimmy Swaggart.
And, Paul Crouch settled out of court with a sodomite he had an affair with in
Lake Arrowhead, California. And, you keep right on watching TBN, right?
Any
special power shown in the life and ministry of a Charismatic preacher or leader
after one of these journeys into sexual sin and divorce..... that power it the
power of Satan and devils. God is NOT in them.
Isaiah
28:7 But they also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are out of
the way; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink, they are
swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way through strong drink; they err in
vision, they stumble in judgment.
Jeremiah
23:14 I have seen also in the prophets of Jerusalem an horrible thing: they commit
adultery, and walk in lies: they strengthen also the hands of evildoers, that
none doth return from his wickedness: they are all of them unto me as Sodom, and
the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah.
To
God, they are the same sort of people whom he destroyed in Sodom. They are faggots
to God. Who are they do YOU?
Jeremiah
5:31 The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means;
and my people love to have it so: and what will ye do in the end thereof?
7.
When the sign, prophecy, or wonder seems to come to pass
This
can still be devils. What goes with the sign or wonder? Are you being asked to
follow after teachings you know very well do not fit with Bible teaching? Are
you hearing new things in prophecies which contradict the Bible? Are tongues telling
you things that contradict the Bible or crate confusion? Are the signs you imagine
are genuine being done by a divorced or adulterous preacher?
God
speaks about this clear back in Moses' Law:
Deuteronomy
13:1 If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and giveth thee
a sign or a wonder, 2 And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he
spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known,
and let us serve them; 3 Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet,
or that dreamer of dreams: for the LORD your God proveth you, to know whether
ye love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul. 4 Ye
shall walk after the LORD your God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and
obey his voice, and ye shall serve him, and cleave unto him.
If
you cannot be content to walk after the Lord and his Word, which to you is the
whole Bible, you are a rebel brat, and God will soon be chastening you soundly.
Or, are you a bastard?
Hebrews
12:6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. 7
If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he
whom the father chasteneth not? 8 But if ye be without chastisement, whereof
all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.
CONCLUSION
It
is necessary to leave a church where most of the above prevail. There is nothing
in such a church to remind us of the order required by the Apostle Paul. The pastor
of such a church is the center of attention, and people even recruit around the
community by telling the lost, and other Christians, "We have a wonderful
pastor who preaches the Word." Or, "Our church has something for the
whole family."
No
one brags on Jesus Christ. It may well be that Jesus is truly outside your church
knocking to get back in.
Do
you? I mean, do you talk about Jesus between Sundays to the lost around you? If
not, you have the devilish infection which you got from your pastor.
I
have put together here one of the most depressing articles I have ever done for
this journal. I also know that I have offended most people who read this article.
It is very hard to hear that an alleged "man of God" is really a servant
of Satan.
If
your pastor manifests many of the above qualities in his life and ministry, he
has given place to the devil. He may actually be born again. That is, his spirit
is the Lord's. But he has yielded his mind and body to the devil, and Satan has
sent him a spiritual assistant, in the form of a devil, to manage his life and
ministry.
Ephesians
4:27 Neither give place to the devil.
Why
would God tell you that if it were not possible? And, it most certainly is possible
for a pastor to give place to the devil. Your pastor has given place to the devil
mentally and physically if you see several issues listed above dominating your
pastor's life and messages. The result is bad manners spiritually. Your pastor
has communications with devils, and they are corrupting him.
1
Corinthians 15:33 Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.
Your
pastor has been tempted or under evil influence at some point, and he yielded
to it.
Romans
6:13 Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin:
but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your
members as instruments of righteousness unto God.
Romans
6:16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants
ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
Your
pastor yielded to evil doctrine, or to passions of the flesh and pride. In any
case, he is now 100% under the supervision of devils. You may say, "Oh no,
Steve, Christians cannot be possessed of devils." That is true, but they
can be possessed WITH devils. That is always the way possession is spoken of in
the Gospels. This means that the devil need not be INSIDE the person. The person
comes to you WITH devils.
My
dog Roxie has lleas in the summer. The fleas do not possess Roxie, but Roxie comes
to me WITH fleas. I cannot see the fleas, but Roxie's behavior tells me she has
them. And, your pastor comes to you WITH devils managing him.
So,
what will you do, now that the Holy Spirit has shown you that you have a devil
possessed pastor?
Romans
16:17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences
contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. 18 For they
that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good
words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple. 19 For your obedience
is come abroad unto all men. I am glad therefore on your behalf: but yet I would
have you wise unto that which is good, and simple concerning evil. 20 And
the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our
Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.
If
you refuse to act upon what you have just learned, God will punish you. He may
allow you and your wife and kids to become possessed with devils just like your
pastor. Here is how God said it happened with Israel long ago:
Hosea
4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected
knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing
thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. 7
As they were increased, so they sinned against me: therefore will I change their
glory into shame. 8 They eat up the sin of my people, and they set their heart
on their iniquity. 9 And there shall be, like people, like priest: and I will
punish them for their ways, and reward them their doings. 10 For they shall
eat, and not have enough: they shall commit whoredom, and shall not increase:
because they have left off to take heed to the LORD.
Verse
9- "Like people, like priest." You will become like your pastor in his
defeat and in his service to Satan.
THE
FULL STORY ON JACK HYLES AND JACK SCHAPP Both of these men were possessed with
devils. I can say this based on the Satanic lies and heresies they taught, and
because of their devilish moral behavior.
WHAT
DO DEVIL POSSESSED 
A
Christian leader who is possessed of devils will develop a greater tolerance for
dirt in general. The church house may become tacky, and his home, automobile,
and his personal appearance will take on a shabby and cluttered look. Sin is dirty,
and devils specialize is dirt. Witness the filthy "holy man" of India
in the photo. He believes that being filthy and not taking a bath proves his zeal
to be holy. Saint Francis of Assisi never took a bath either, and he thought he
was much more holy that other people because of that. Fortunately, for the peasants,
he spent most of his time in a monastery secluded. 
But,
it gets much worse than that. Many pastors these days are violent to the sheep.
They work men to distraction around the church house, they demand giving which
causes poverty of some saints, and they rejoice in excommunicating members for
childish reasons. Then, these pastors go to pastor's rallies, and they stand in
the foyer and tell war stories about how they "churched" (excommunicated)
alleged trouble makers.

CONCLUSION
