Looking piercingly into my eyes, as if he was seeing right through me, staring a hole through my heart, this God-fearing man, possessed with holy conviction, sternly declared…..
“You preach this Gospel JUST LIKE it’s written young man, you understand me!”
This word went through me like a lightening bolt from Heaven… further instilling in me the fear of God. As a young man, newly saved, I was blessed to be charged just as Paul charged Timothy to preach only God’s Word (2 Timothy 4:1-4).
The world has never more needed men like this man who boldly charged me to preach the Word – just like it’s written.
ANYONE else ever had a man like this bless your life? Like Paul charged Timothy to “Preach the Word”, this man charged me! He lit me up.
If you aren’t engrossed in God’s Word today, you aren’t being prepared to be mightily used of God.
The last thing the world needs is another coward “minister” of death who refuses to preach repentance and hell, the holiness of God, the judgment of God, the cross, and the return of Christ! If he doesn’t use the King James Bible, he’s in darkness. Get a clue.
IF YOU DARE speak for God, it must of necessity be the WORD of God – letting God speak for Himself by speaking Scripture! Otherwise, you will be a false teacher, misrepresenting Him.
Memorize: Psalms 19:7; Romans 1:16; 2 Timothy 4:2; 1 Peter 4:11 and Isaiah 8:20.
ATTEMPTING to talk someone into getting saved will NEVER work. Let’s cease such and let God speak for Himself saints.
“Lean not unto thine own understanding.” Proverbs 3:5
God’s Word is divine and eternal and converts sinners to Himself. Our own futile explanation is no patch on the words of Holy Scripture!
Divine truth is eternal, just like the One who spoke it. God’s Word “liveth and abideth for ever.”
“Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.” 1 Peter 1:23
This is YOUR hour to seek God and ask Him to use you! (Acts 1:8)
We can win the argument and lose the soul if we don’t wisely, lovingly speak the Word of God into the hearing of the precious eternal souls we encounter. “HOW shall they hear without a preacher?” (Romans 10:14) Yes we do this in God’s love and yet we do it in obedience to the LORD who commands His people to “Preach the word.” (Ephesians 4:15; 2 Timothy 4:2).
“He that SPEAKETH truth (as opposed to hiding, withholding it) sheweth forth righteousness: but a false witness deceit.” Proverbs 12:17
Some who espouse a false love foolishly believe that loving others means hiding, withholding the truth from them. Yet the Bible informs us that such withholding of the words of God comes from a cowardly “enemy” who is “deceitful.”
“Open rebuke is better than secret love. 6 Faithful are the wounds of a friend; but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.” Proverbs 27:5-6
Jesus says “Love your enemies” and by His life at times we know that the best way to “love” is to openly, harshly rebuke them. Compare Matthew 5:44 with Matthew 23.
“But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; … 15 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.” Matthew 5:44; 23:15
To withhold truth is devilish hatred!
Dear pastor, minister: IF you aren’t quoting and reading Holy Scripture (King James Bible) to your audience you have NO BUSINESS – NONE, ZERO – play acting like you’re ministering! Period! Repent and step down now until you are so full of God and His Word that’s ALL that flows from your life and lips! (2 Timothy 2:15; 1 Peter 4:11)
“No one ever went to hell for hearing the truth. For rejecting the truth, yes. For hearing the truth, never!” Phil Butler
Jesus sent no one to seminary – and NEVER will! Repent, learn the Word and walk in the Holy Ghost! THAT’s the divine prescription!
As is seen in the lives of the prophets and holy apostles of Jesus, authentic men of God are known in that they have no mercy on false doctrine. Rather, they plundered, dismantled and destroyed it with divine truth (Acts 17; Book of Galatians; 2 Corinthians 10:3-6, etc.). No, rather true men of God are men of holy conviction and “earnestly contend” against falsehoods! (Jude 3)
The true disciple has deep conviction. His conscience is captive to the Word of God which is the final authority of His life and therefore ministering. He says with Paul “Let God be true and every man a liar”! (Romans 3:4) The authentic disciple will be castigated by persecutors. He will be told that has a religious spirit, is judgmental, and is a legalist. Jesus says to “Rejoice.” (Matthew 5:10-12)
YOU can only be turned over to a “strong delusion” by God if you do not choose to love and devour and obey His truth! (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12) And you will be if you are not “valiant for the truth.” (Jeremiah 9:3)
“Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. 4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.” Jude 3-4
ANY minister or ministry that is not constantly calling you to repentance, to humble yourself, to lay down your life in this world, to live the crucified life, is misrepresenting Christ and is false. Run!
Men who are known of the LORD “HATE every false way.”
“Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way.” Psalms 119:104
“Therefore I esteem all thy precepts concerning all things to be right; and I hate every false way.” Psalms 119:128
Those who preach anything except the original Gospel given us in the Word of God, are “accursed.”
“I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: 7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 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. 9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.” Galatians 1:6-9
Fake Ministries are Everywhere: WHEN you hear people in “ministry” continue to hem haw and use words such as “I think,” etc., you should lose interest real quick. You know they are not in the Word and so you know it’s a fake ministry and they have no business pretending to do “ministry” for Jesus. “Preach the WORD.” (2 Timothy 4:2) We all have a Bible and so there’s no excuse and real kingdom ministry is simply putting forth God’s Word. Peter wrote: “If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles (written Word) of God;…Amen.” (1 Peter 4:11). God’s Word is the recording of the very “thoughts of HIS heart” and He’s not confused, amen? (Psalms 33:11; 1 Corinthians 14:33) Yet, the vast majority of “ministry” that goes on today is a lame, laughable excuse for kingdom ministry!
Un-repentant, sin-justifying compromisers want to act like we don’t have a Bible – to deny that God, the Judge, has spoken. So these children of Satan attempt to shut down the messengers of truth! Steam roll them with God’s Word and authority saints! SMH What ever we read in the Bible is from the JUDGE and if you don’t believe that, you are “not of God” according to Christ (John 8:47).
ARE YOU diligently and daily devouring, learning, and only preaching the WRITTEN Word of God? If not, cease all your false “ministry.” (2 Timothy 2:15; 3:16-17; 4:2; 1 Peter 4:10-11, etc.). God has not sent you but you have sent yourself. If you don’t repent you perish as a false prophet (2 Peter 2:1-3).
Hence the following WARNING:
“They have seen vanity and lying divination, saying, The LORD saith: and the LORD hath not sent them: and they have made others to hope that they would confirm the word.” Ezekiel 13:6
“Then the LORD said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart.” Jeremiah 14:14
Speaking of earnestly, contending against the many false teachers today who add to, take from, twist, and preach anything except the Holy Scriptures …. Wolves patty cake with you because they want your money and could care less about your eternal soul (Isaiah 30:9-10; 2 Timothy:2-4; 2 Peter 2:1-3).
3 Strikes and You’re Out!
Recently, a local pastor quoted from and endorsed 3 heretical extra-biblical authors/books. First he quoted from and endeared his audience to a psychology based book and he was confronted about it. Then, a month later, with total disregard to truth and the warning the LORD gave him, he quoted 2 obvious heretics in one message. This showed that he is in darkness, refusing to repent:
Mother Teresa (antichrist, works-based heretic who openly admitted she didn’t know the LORD – and spent her earthly life championing the cause of a false religion/cult)
Regrettably, so far, this “pastor” has refused to repent for selling out Christ for His very enemies. The man “bid Godspeed” to heretics and if he doesn’t repent, will perish with them (2 John 7-11; 2 Chronicles 19:2; 2 Peter 2:1-3, etc.). Those who in any way endorse an enemy of Christ will be going to the same hell as they are guaranteed (2 John 10-11).
YOU have no ministry other than to lay down your life – to be dead and buried – and only then will jesus raise you up and use you! Jesus will only conduct His ministry through obedient, crucified vessels! (2 Corinthians 4:10-12)
In other words, instead of pointing people to the unmatched books of the canon of Holy Writ – Genesis, Colossians, Ephesians, John, Matthew, Revelation, etc., (which he never does), this “pastor” pointed them to the rebellion of mere sinful men – to their failed human methods in books that are based on the antichrist rebellion of self-love.
“Behold, ye trust in lying words, that cannot profit.” Jeremiah 7:8
“Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.” Jeremiah 17:5
Make no mistake: ANY man who is teaching ANY thing except the Holy Scriptures is “accursed” and the very enemy of Christ – hell bound sure as you are breathing this moment (Galatians 1:6-9; 2 Peter 2:1-3, etc.). Nothing could be clearer from Scripture.
The refusal to simply teach the Word of God and get others into it is evidence, the fruit of evil-hearted men – wolves in sheep’s clothing – who refuse to truly turn their own lives over to the LORD in repentance, and how they remain in darkness as they look elsewhere – outside of God’s Word. Were we not warned?
“Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.” 2 Timothy 4:2-4
EVERY DIVINE Fix is in the 66!
Where are you looking?
Any person pointing people to other sources, especially those which are not Scripture-rich, are false teachers. They are denying Christ – and denying He gave us all we need in His Word. Scripture reveals to us that all spiritual wholeness comes from God’s Word/the Bible, Holy Spirit, and people of God.
The divine solution for all things pertaining to God and our own salvation and wholeness, is given to us in the 66 glorious books of the canon of Holy Scripture, God’s Word, the Bible! “ALL things that pertain unto life and godliness” are contained in the “exceeding great and precious promises” of Holy Scripture (2 Peter 1:3-4).
“According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: 4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.” 2 Peter 1:3-4
Forcefully, in the holy fear of God, an older, true man of God deeply infused my bosom with the holy fear of God and mandate to preach only the Holy Scriptures. By now, I’m sure this blessed man God used that day is with the KING. I met this man at a weekend Christian conference in Florida. During our conversation about Jesus, as we sat fellowshipping, this God-fearing man looked over at me and with great, holy sternness and piercing eyes of fire, looking me straight in the eye, declared “You preach this Gospel just like it’s written young man! Do you understand me?!”
Whew! Well, as a young Marine, I knew how to take a commandment! He didn’t have to repeat himself! I knew as sure as I was breathing that the Almighty was speaking to me!
Beware of the flesh-flattering, the sin-coddling devils! Are you one of them?
God is watching you. You are 100% accountable to preach the whole counsel of His Word – regardless of what you think will be the results of the lack thereof. Die to self. Take up the cross. Lay down your life! Repent and preach the gospel or stop feigning to be a follower of Christ (Mark 8:34-38, etc.). Who do you live and preach to please – God or mere sinful men? (Galatians 1:10)
In your ministering, are you accommodating/pleasing God or sinful men? (Galatians 1:10) The answer to this question proves whether or not you are a true or false prophet! (2 Timothy 4:2-4)
Whose Life is God Using You to Shake Up and Bless?
Gentlemen, may God infuse us with His holy boldness to fearlessly preach and plunder the works of darkness in this late hour! (Jude 3; Ephesians 5:11; Proverbs 28:1; Psalms 94:16
Notice the second part of this verse and how those who do not use the sword, the Word, the declared judgments of God to expose, to plunder, to attack the enemies of God will be “cursed.” THIS IS WAR. “FIGHT the good fight.” (1 Timothy 6:12)
“Cursed be he that doeth the work of the LORD deceitfully, and cursed be he that keepeth back his sword from blood.” Jeremiah 48:10
ANY man who is afraid to offend you is a compromised moral coward (Galatians 1:10; 4:16).
“Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets.” Luke 6:26
ANY person who speaks the truth is controversial. Jesus was very controversial. Read the Gospels. Why was Christ controversial? Because some hate the truth and attack the messengers of truth. A very few love the truth and few love Christ who is “the truth” and from which truth proceeds – divinely transmitted and recorded from Genesis to Revelation. If you are not controversial – causing uproars among the unrepentant – you are not speaking the truth and are unlike Christ. The truth is pure and divine. The problem is not the truth but rather the dark, unrepentant hearts it lands on and rebel instead of repenting (John 8:47; 2 Timothy 4:2-4).
When Jesus spoke things happened! When true men of God speak today, things happen. God’s men are set apart in contrast with the epidemic of spineless moral cowards we call “pastors” today.
Darkness and Light will Always Clash and Light Always Wins!
The kingdom of God is a kingdom of conflict – “And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.” (Matthew 11:12)
WHO did Jesus tell us is “of God” and who is “NOT of God”? Memorize John 8:47 (King James Bible)
“He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.” John 8:47
Jesus told us exactly who is “of God” and who is “not of God.” Jesus told us that those who shut off God’s Word – who are not eagerly seeking to learn it and live by it, are “not of God.” (John 8:47)
There’s no such thing as a follower of Christ who doesn’t hold God’s written Word as final authority for all manner of life and faith.
“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.” 2 Timothy 3:16-17
The LORD tells us that when a person doesn’t choose to love the truth, He will personally turn them over to “strong delusion” and that’s “after the working of Satan” himself (2 Thessalonians 2:10-12). Here is that all-important Bible passage:
“Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, 10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.” 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12
Quality, not Quantity
WHO do we seek to please?
“For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.” Galatians 1:10
In our humanity, we tend to judge everything by numbers – the mere number of people who are responding positively, repenting and obeying God. This is unlike the LORD. Jesus preached, desiring all to repent and believe upon Him and yet He also told us that only a “few” would. Jesus is not after everyone because, whether you like it or not, everyone doesn’t want Jesus.
Jesus is not a liar and He told us that His flock is “little.”
“Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.” Luke 12:32
“Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and MANY there be which go in thereat: 14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and FEW there be that find it.” Matthew 7:13-14
“Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.” John 17:17
NO, we do not seek to be controversial yet we are of Christ who is “the truth” and whose written Word “is truth,” and when we speak it, there will be conflict – dark hearts who do not wish to change, to get right with God, will rebel.
“And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.” John 3:19-21
Those who truly turn their hearts to the LORD will without exception see His holy face, in His Word. Any person who is not in God’s Word does not love Jesus and is rather rejecting Him for the false, futile god of self.
There are 4 types of soils God’s Word falls on. The condition, the state of heart soil is the choice, the decision of the individual (Luke 8:11-15).
Do You Love the Truth?
Who did Christ tell us is “of the truth”?
“Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.” John 18:37
“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” Psalms 119:105
“The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.” Psalms 119:130
God’s Word is Unchanging – and Anyone not Building their Life on it is Doomed to Eternal Damnation
Read Jesus’ words in Matthew 7:19-29.
“For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.” Psalms 119:89
“The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever.” Isaiah 40:8
“Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.” Mark 13:31
The individual who we truly, authentically be Christ’s, will non-negotiably declare from his heart “Let God be true and EVERY man a liar.” (Romans 3:4)
God said it
I believe it
That settles it!
WHEN we lay down our lives, we are truly hid in Christ, we fear NO mere man!
“For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.” Colossians 3:3
Receiving and Giving the Truth
ANY ole dead fish can float downstream. It takes a live one to swim upstream. Stand in and speak the truth (2 Timothy 4:2-4).
When God’s Word is in us, God’s Word will flow through us. Here’s a rich passage from Proverbs 22 I believe you are going to fall in love with:
“Bow down thine ear, and hear the words of the wise, and apply thine heart unto my knowledge. 18 For it is a pleasant thing if thou keep them within thee; they shall withal be fitted in thy lips. 19 That thy trust may be in the LORD, I have made known to thee this day, even to thee. 20 Have not I written to thee excellent things in counsels and knowledge, 21 That I might make thee know the certainty of the words of truth; that thou mightest answer the words of truth to them that send unto thee?” Proverbs 22:17-21
When we get into God’s Word, God’s Word gets into us!
God’s Word is Final Authority
God’s written Word “is truth” and without exception, every individual who is truly in Christ, lives by His written Word and final authority for all matters of faith and doctrine (John 17:17; 2 Timothy 3:16-17; Romans 3:4; 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12, etc.).
Got saved? You better be continuing in the truth or you will fall away:
“Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, IF IF IF ye continue in my word, THEN are ye my disciples indeed; 32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 8:31-32
THOSE who put aside the Word of God damn their own soul:
“Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing ye put it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles.” Acts 13:46
The Duty of Believers is to Imbue Other Saints with God’s Word – Get Them into it!
“Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples.” Isaiah 8:16
“If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained.” 1 Timothy 4:6
“Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.” 1 Timothy 4:16
When you see a man who is not getting others into God’s Word and I will show you a fraud who is not in God’s Word himself and is getting people trusting in himself! Is this not what we observe in the modern church world among those men posing as Christ’s representatives?
YOU GOT a King James Bible? Preach that only! Cease all additions and subtractions.
Puddle Jumping and Philippians!
On a short flight, a puddle jump flight, a dear fellow Marine who was an earnest believer, got me into Scripture memory. God richly bless that brother in Christ! This dear brother took up his duty as an “ambassador” for Christ by getting me into God’s Word (2 Corinthians 5:20). Before boarding that brief flight our unit was taking, this blessed minister of Christ lovingly and firming told me that I was going to memorize Philippians 4:13 on that flight, without exception. Man, that first and short memory verse took the whole hour and a half flight to memorize! I read it over and over and over out loud out of the King James Bible until it began taking root in my memory and heart. – “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.” (Philippians 4:13)
Beloved of God, IF GOD is doing a work in you, and you are acquiescing, it cannot and will not be stopped!!! “Abide” in Him! (John 15:1-6)
“Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.” 1 Thessalonians 5:24
Since that day, by the leading and grace of Jesus, I’ve hand written on index cards and memorized volumes of Scripture from God’s Word.
As I experienced and millions of other believers have discovered, that first verse is the hardest to memorize and then the ensuing verses become easier. It’s kind of like the mind needs the rust or cob webs knocked off.
I want to exhort the reader to always use the real Bible, the King James Bible – which is much easier to memorize and has nothing missing or diminished.
When we are learning and we know God’s Word, the LORD will be able to use us in a much more powerful fashion (2 Timothy 2:21).
Under the bless-ed weight of the true original Gospel, men are convicted, broken, and crushed to repentance! (Matthew 21:44; 1 Corinthians 1:18; 2:4; 2 Corinthians 4:20; James 4:8-10, etc.)
YESSSS JESUS!!!!! Beloved of God, IF GOD is doing a work in you, and you are acquiescing, yielding and abiding, it cannot and will not be stopped!!! “Abide” in Him! (John 15:1-6)
“Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.” 1 Thessalonians 5:24
AS you learn the Word and walk in the Spirit – GOD is going to use you!
“Let thine heart RETAIN my words.” Proverbs 4:4
PRAYER: Holy Father in Heaven, I come to You in the name of my LORD and Savior, Jesus Christ. Here and now I ask You to grant my heart Thy holy fear and lead me into the memorization and meditation of Thy truth, just as You prescribed and commanded in Your Word. I love You Jesus and know that I can only get to know You better through Your Holy Spirit and Word You graciously gave us in the Bible. Grant my mind to be photographic in memorizing Your Word. In the name of Jesus Christ, I ask, amen.
Enduring Sound Doctrine Enduring Sound Doctrine Enduring “Sound Doctrine” Reveals that You are following Jesus, you are abiding in Christ, enduring to the end, and therefore you are not falling away… as God’s Word prophetically foretold that many would (Matthew 24:8-13; 1 Timothy 4:1-2, etc.). “Sound doctrine” reveals Christ, the perfect, permanent portrait of God! Does rejecting, neglecting to learn and know God’s Word bring blessings or cursings on our individual lives? “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 […]
Teach the Bible [podcast]
JESUS IS COMING AND THE TRUE BODY OF CHRIST IS “HOLDING FORTH (BOLDLY DECLARING) THE WORD OF LIFE” “Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain.” Philippians 2:16 WHEN you speak God’s Word, you are speaking divine authority. “These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.” Titus 2:15 “And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all […]
Message to those Called to Ministry [podcast]
Key and Primary Reason for Man’s Creation Are you teaching this? “And this is life eternal (the chief purpose), that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.” John 17:3 The ultimate, the primary reason God created us, you, is to know Him. Christ’s apostle Paul declared: “That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death.” Philippians 3:10 As it has always been, the LORD has ordained that we enjoy a personal relationship with Him. All of our worship […]

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15 The man who is truly faithful to God will search out, diligently study, devour, and learn the words of God and be used of Him to communicate them to others. “So they read in the book in the law of God distinctly, and gave the sense, and caused them to understand the reading.” Nehemiah 8:8 They read the Word itself. They gave the sense to help the people understand it. Phillip was able to give […]
If you are waiting for me to let this subject alone, please don’t hold your breath!
Recently to a man who claimed to have a verse that the King James Bible translated incorrectly, I replied:
“You are parroting foolish lies. This is laughable and lame. Die to it. Stop it. Repent. Something is not right in your heart. The supposed “errors” of Satan’s detractors are laughable and most of the time easily dispelled. Satan is the first one who questioned and changed God’s Word as you are now doing and so it more than obvious that Satan is influencing you (Genesis 2:17; 3:1, 4). There’s always an evil spirit behind the questioning and supposed ‘correcting’ of God’s Word.”
Firstly, we should ask: Why do people question the Bible? When people judge the Bible or claim it has errors, or cast doubt upon the validity of it, they usually have no examples. Why? Hint: The unrepentant are seeking to dismiss themselves from personal accountability. Get to know John 3:19-21.
Some are so very self-centered that they believe that if they can’t personally understand something that it should not be in God’s Word or that it wasn’t translated correctly. Run from such a counterfeit!
WHENEVER you hear some fraud pretending to correct the preserved Word of God in English, the KJB, run (Psalms 12:6-7). “Beware of the scribes.” (Luke 20:46)
Beware of those who believe they can correct, they can change or decide what of God’s preserved Word is the truth, is accepted. The Bible reveals that such men are of the seed of Satan himself who was the first to cast doubt upon and change the words of God (Genesis 2:17 and 3:4 and Genesis 3:1). God put His Word in place and it is the final divine authority standard. He didn’t need the puny permission of Satan’s “scholars” of today.
NEVER foolishly pretend to correct the Bible! No, correct your own foolish self!
If I were you I’d be careful never to correct the Word of God, making an utter fool of yourself. It’s amazing how many arrogant and foolish “ministers” dare to attempt such. The King James Bible is God’s preserved Word to the English speaking people and when we hear some dupe say things like “a better translation” would have been ….. then we know we are dealing with a counterfeit who doesn’t fear the LORD and doesn’t believe God’s Word and that he is wiser than the Almighty and that he can decide what the Word of God should say.
The King James Bible is the preserved Word for the English speaking peoples. Beware of the arrogant dupes who because they don’t understand the words claim, pretend it’s a mistranslation. Their not understanding the use of a word or words in the King James Bible doesn’t mean it was not a good word, doesn’t mean it was a mistranslation. His lack of understanding doesn’t equal a mistranslation or bad translation. Much of the time you hear these pawns make such claims it’s due to their not liking what the Bible clearly states. Get a clue. Cease trying to correct the Word of God.
Jesus told us that it is “SATAN” who comes to take away the Word of God (Mark 4:15). He casts doubt on it as he did in the Garden. Read Genesis 3. Those who claim God didn’t preserve His Word call the Almighty a liar and manifestly reveal that they are of Satan (Psalms 12:6-7). They have no proof of such claims and are in damnable unbelief as agents of Satan himself who is behind all questioning of God’s Word (Genesis 3). The “Yea, Hath God Said?” Temptation
It’s utterly arrogant and laughable for amateurs to question God’s Word, correct it, and pretend to know a better translation for certain words and phrases in the Bible…. not only for the sin they commit before God but also the foolishness of vainly thinking they know more than the masterfully linguistic translators God assembled to give us the King James Bible. Some of those men mastered numerous languages before they were 8 years old.
Some among us are so deeply in sin and darkness that they have no idea just how puny they are and so they arrogantly attempt to correct God’s Word SMH. Repent sinner … They pretend to know Greek and Hebrew better than the most scholarly cache of scribes ever assembled, the 54 who translated the King James Bible in fulfillment of the promise of Psalms 12:6-7. Devils are manifesting.
Sherry Todd writes: “For the past week or so, Satan has been sending his agents to me, telling me, there is no infallible word of God. No pure word of God. I keep reminding him the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And 1 Peter 1:23-25 INCORRUPTIBLE is infallible. Now, perhaps these folks are born of the vine of Sodom. But I am born again of the INCORRUPTIBLE WORD of God. KJB. Satan is very busy during his short time. Repent for the kingdom of God is at hand. Amen. Thank you Lord for Your Word.”
IF YOU DARE seek to correct God’s Word, you reveal yourself as an arrogant, hell bound antichrist. Repent devil.
—– DEVILS OF THE DAY: ARROGANT BIBLE CORRECTORS WHO pretend to have more knowledge of the Hebrew and Greek than the 54 divinely-ordained translators whom God used to bring us His Word in English. The LORD always does what He says and He gave the English speaking peoples of the world His written Word in fulfillment of His promise found in Psalms 12:6-7.
BEWARE OF THOSE WHO PRETEND TO BE WISER THAN THE ALMIGHTY AND MORE LEARNED THAN THE 54 GOD-ORDAINED SCHOLARS WHO GAVE US THE BLESSED KING JAMES BIBLE. SOME OF THOSE MEN KNOW 4-6 LANGUAGES FLUENTLY BEFORE THEY WERE 10 YEARS OLD. THEY WERE COMPLETELY LEARNED IN HEBREW AND GREEK AS NO ONE IS TODAY, NAMELY THE NOVICES WHO ATTEMPT TO CORRECT GOD’S PRESERVED WORD TO THE ENGLISH SPEAKING PEOPLES OF HIS WORLD – THE KING JAMES BIBLE (PSALMS 12:6-7). THESE ARE GULLIBLE AND IGNORANT AS THEY VENTURE TO CORRECT THE BIBLE AND ARE LIKE A GNAT SHAKING HIS FIST AT AN ELEPHANT. THEY ARE BLIND, AND NEED TO SHUT THEIR MOUTHS, HUMBLE THEMSELVES IN REAL REPENTANCE, AND LEARN. THESE ARE WISE IN THEIR OWN EYES (PROVERBS 3:7; TITUS 1:13).
The King James Bible is the preserved Word of God for the English speaking people of the world.
MOST MODERN, SELF-PROCLAIMED “SCHOLARS” ARE MERE PAWNS OF THE FIRST ONE WHO BEGAN QUESTIONING AND PERVERTING, ALTERING GOD’S WORDS, SATAN (GENESIS 2:17; 3:1, 4). THEY ARE WILLINGLY BLIND AND YET POSE AS SCHOLARS BECAUSE THEY LEARNED TO SEARCH OUT A LITTLE HEBREW AND GREEK. ASK THEM: 1) “DO YOU SPEAK HEBREW OR GREEK?”, 2) “DID OR DID NOT GOD GIVE US HIS WORD IN OUR OWN LANGUAGE?” THE KING JAMES BIBLE TRANSLATORS, MANY OF THEM, FULLY KNEW NUMEROUS LANGUAGES BY THE AGE OF 10. GOD RAISED THEM UP TO GIVE US HIS WORD IN OUR LANGUAGE (PSALMS 12:6-7).
So, He’s calling you to simply and resolutely repent and shut the evil mouth that seeks to foolishly and groundlessly cast doubt upon His very Word …. following in the footsteps of your father the devil who was the first to cast doubt upon God’s Word – Genesis 2:17; 3:4; John 8:44. Make no mistake: Such an apostate undertaking emanates from an unrepentant heart of rebellion. Though they pretend to be God’s children, they have crept in unawares and their evil fruit reveals the real master of the Bible corrector puppets. The LORD is calling you to repent and correct your own wicked, sin-filled, depraved heart that seeks to justify your “right” to live as you wish vainly believing God gave us no certain Word (Proverbs 22:17-21). This is the very lie of hell and only bought by those who are headed there due to their rebellion against God (John 8:44). How dare you cast doubt on the Most High who gave us His Word! You have openly called Him a liar:
“The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. 7 Thou shalt keep them, O Lord, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.” Psalms 12:6-7
It’s one thing to read a new version (which I highly discourage) and it’s yet another thing to go so far as to defend Satan’s obvious counterfeits and to seek to cast doubt on the divine promise and Word of God!
Calling God a liar by saying something in His Word is not true is the clear evidence that one does not know Him!
The underlying sin of this evil unbelief is pride and rebellion ….. After all, if God didn’t give us His pure Word, we aren’t accountable, right? Wrong, because He did keep His promise and we have His Word. And no, the LORD’s promise to give us His Word in our language can’t possibly be the new versions because they butchered known truth from His Word which we have from the Majority Family of manuscripts (Textus Receptus which simply means Received Text). Could we call these people Bible agnostics? … You will notice that these very people crassly and conveniently ignore the obvious diabolical corruptions of the new versions while vainly attempting to nitpick God’s Word. Whether they know it or not, they are pawns of the enemy of Christ who is the enemy of all souls.
Little do they know, anyone who reads and defends the new versions is partaking with the Catholic cult from which the new versions all emanate in that they come from the butchered manuscripts.
Surely if one can rightly correct God’s Word, his own words are now justified and he will not be accountable, right? Wrong.
There is an eternal curse (includes irrevocable confinement in the lake of fire) pronounced upon those who add to or take away from God’s Word and I believe that could include anyone who dares cast doubt upon God’s Word which is paramount to taking away (the authority) of it.
“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.” Revelation 22:18-19
Antichrist snakes are the devils who refuse to believe God kept His promise to preserve His Word to all generations (Psalms 12:6-7). WHY? – Simple: They are rebels at heart who refuse to obey that Word. They want to consult with other antichrists by reading the new versions which make a new way, another way, a false gospel. They are “accursed” (Galatians 1:6-9). All who are true to the LORD “HATE every false way.” (Psalms 119:104, 128)
Recently I had the privilege of addressing a certain Bible corrector:
ANOTHER arrogant antichrist saying that “Holy Ghost” is a wrong translation. He sought to correct God’s Word due to his own puny understanding blocked. Here’s the rebuke he was sent before he was blocked:
“Holy GHOST” appears 183 times in God’s Word. “Ghost” simply means “spirit.” It’s only because of the modern words “ghost” being utilized 99% of the times when referring to a demon that people think it only refers to such. This ridiculous conclusion gives us a clue to who these people really are – to give this modern use of the word preference over God’s preserved Word! Repent. You are speaking against the LORD sinner… as you arrogantly seek to correct God’s Word instead of repenting… all because in your puny human mind you don’t understand.
MESSAGE RECEIVED:
“But the King James Bible added words.”
REPLY:
The only things the KJB added were bridge words to bridge the gap between languages in translations which is always necessary when translating from one language to another. AND, the KJB is the only Bible that put those added words in italics so the reader knows which words were added. And the verse you bring up is a good example. Take a look at the KJB on this verse and notice that I will all-caps the added word. Just 1 word was added and it’s “man”:
Luk 17:34 I tell you, in that night there shall be two MEN in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.
So, is “man” wrong to put here by the translators? NO, it’s the exact word that’s supposed to be here and the text proves that: “One shall be taken” can only be referring to a person!
MESSAGE RECEIVED:
“I believe the bible is the true word of GOD, but i believe some pastors are the ones who lie about what it says and then others are confused cause they never read it..i also believe the bible says knowledge will be revealed in the last days….but some think no other knowledge is needed.”
REPLY:
Well, God will never contradict His written Word. It’s the highest revelation so no other knowledge is needed. By His Holy Spirit He gave us His Word and by His Spirit in us He teaches us, leads us, and reveals “ALL things that pertain unto life and godliness” to His true children (2 Peter 1:3-4; 1 Cor 2:12-14). “Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. 21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.” (2 Peter 1:20-21) Also, closely read 2 Timothy 3:16-17. To say other knowledge is needed is to say that God lied to us and didn’t supply in His Word, by His Holy Ghost, “ALL things” His people needed for all times (2 Peter 1:3-4; 20-21, etc.).

Luke the physician’s style of writing included things that were indicators yet not sanctioned by the LORD in the worship of God. For example: “And after three months we departed in a ship of Alexandria, which had wintered in the isle, whose sign was Castor and Pollux.” Acts 28:11 Of this use of the “sign” of “Castor and Pollux,” the Believer’s Bible Commentary notes the following: “28:11 The figurehead of this ship was the Twin Brothers, that is, Castor and Pollux. These were supposed, by heathen sailors, to be the patron gods of mariners.” This is clear proof that everything in […]

There will not be even one rebel in glory …. The LORD loves and calls you to Himself today….. to settle down humbly in true repentance …. asking God to forgive your sinful stubbornness, rebellion, and self-idolatry, self-adultery. Ask Him to give you a heart of flesh and to take away every trace of a stony heart in you (Ezekiel 36:24-26).
If you had a real dad growing up, you know HE was large and in charge in his house…. and so is God!
He’s Large and in Charge!
He’s Daddy, “Abba Father”! (Romans 8:15).
He’s Your Father – yet only if you endure His chastening! (Hebrews 12:5-12)
“A land flowing with milk and honey” (Exodus 3:8) is a biblical phrase that describes a place of great abundance and prosperity, symbolizing the fulfillment of God’s promises and the richness of the Promised Land. It emphasizes a land that is fertile, nourishing, and provides an abundance of sustenance, with milk and honey serving as symbolic representations of this richness.”
“For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba (Daddy), Father. 16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: 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.” Romans 8:15-17
Growing up in daddy’s house, you did things his way, right? Not your way but his way…. he was the man of the house, not you. You abode under his provision and his care and love for you, as your daddy, right? Well, that’s how it is with God. He loves you beyond measure and yet you must simply humble yourself and do things His way. When you do, the blessings will flow, will overwhelm you, will consume you, will flood your life! BAM. Memorize Matthew 6:33 today.
Let’s get something straight …
NO DOUBT: There’s no doubt that God wants to bless your life! Yet, you must do it His way beloved. He wants to bless you and yet, you must ask yourself if you really want Him. Are you truly hungering and thirsting for more of Jesus, more of His righteousness?
“Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.” Matthew 5:6
The Old Testament summed up: In dealing with His people, His transactions, our LORD’s business concerned their salvation and restoration – promised land blessings! Read Numbers 13-14; 1 Corinthians 10:1-13. And, we are now “the Israel of God” (Galatians 6:16). All these things were written and are on record for us – for our learning, comfort, peace, and blessings (Romans 15:4; 1 Corinthians 10:11).
As was the case with Old Testament Israel, God brought you out of a life of sin in this fallen world (Egypt) in order to bring you IN – into His land of abundant blessings, walking victoriously in a cross-abiding relationship with Christ (John 15).
“And he brought us OUT from thence, that he might bring us IN, to give us the land which he sware unto our fathers.” Deuteronomy 6:23
There’s a promised land of blessedness, of abundant fruit, the likes of which we have not even begun to taste. Yet, appropriating, walking into this treasure house, this field, this gold mine of blessedness, requires that we closely, diligently trust and obey the Giver of “every good gift … every perfect gift” (James 1:17).
HE BROUGHT YOU OUT OF SOMETHING FOR GOOD REASON – TO BRING YOU INTO SOMETHING MUCH GREATER – WHICH HE PURCHASED WITH HIS OWN BLOOD ON THAT CROSS!
Many who read these words are seeking to get and to live out what God alone can provide – as you abide in a real relationship with Him, loving Him with all you are, wholeheartedly.
“Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.” Psalms 37:4
Delighting in the LORD assures that we will be possessed with His desires and they will be granted!
Truly Trusting and OBEYING God
Are you forgetting any of His “benefits” – the ones Jesus died to give? Are you neglecting to appropriate them by a real walk with Him? “Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits” (Psalms 103:2).
Jesus was the perfect example of delighting in God. In the days of His flesh, Jesus toiling as He faced going to that cross for us, cried “not my will, but thine, be done” (Luke 22:42). Have we cried out to the LORD today with a “Not my will but thine be done”?
“First” means First, not Second. Putting God where He Belongs in Your Life – “First”
“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” Matthew 6:33
If you are out of Bible order, you are out of Bible blessings!
If your life is not in Bible order where Jesus is literally FIRST, you will not walk in the blessings of God – the blessings Jesus died to give you!
“IF”
“If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land: 20 But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.” Isaiah 19-20
GOD DESIRES TO BLESS YOU – to bring you into “A Land Flowing with Milk and Honey.”
The phrase “milk and honey” appears 20 times in God’s Word and in every case, refers to God’s desire and declaration to bring His people into His land of rich blessings, flowing with the bounty of His goodness!
“And I am come down to deliver them (salvation) out of the hand of the Egyptians (the world), and to bring them up out of that land unto a good land and a large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey; unto the place of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites” (Exodus 3:8).
In other words, “I’m going to bring you into a land flowing with milk and honey right in the middle of your enemies!”
The LORD brings us OUT of sin, “OUT of darknessINTO his marvellous light”!
“But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar (special) people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you OUT of darkness INTO his marvellous light:” 1 Peter 2:9
“Unto a land flowing with milk and honey: for I will not go up in the midst of thee; for thou art a stiffnecked people: lest I consume thee in the way.” Exodus 33:3
The LORD brings, saves us out of the world and into His kingdom family and blessings!
“And I have said, I will bring you up OUT of the affliction of Egypt(sin; the lostworld) unto the land of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, unto a land flowing with milk and honey (salvation).” Exodus 3:17
The “Milk and Honey” of Christ’s Salvation!
God brought His beloved people OUT of Egypt (represents the world) to bring them INTO the promised land He ordained for them! In the same way, God has brought you and me out of sin, out of the kingdom of the world, in order to bring us IN to His promised land of blessing in Christ! Read Ephesians 1 afresh beloved of God.
“Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet (fit) to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: 13 Who hath delivered us FROM(out of) the power of darkness, and hath translated us INTO the kingdom of his dear Son: 14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:” Colossians 1:12-14
God never brings you OUT of something not to bring you INTO something much better! safeguardyoursoul.com
He made us to bless us and yet – will only do so as we walk with Him on His stated terms.
“That I may perform the oath which I have sworn unto your fathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey, as it is this day. Then answered I, and said, So be it, O LORD.” Jeremiah 11:5
“And that ye may prolong your days in the land, which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give unto them and to their seed, a land that floweth with milk and honey.” Deuteronomy 11:9
God Sent His Son to Bless Us – His People
“Unto you first God, having raised up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his iniquities.” Acts 3:26
Repentance Always Leads to Refreshing from Heaven!
“Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord; 20 And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you: 21 Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.” Acts 3:19-21
God Requires Repentance and Faith in All Who will be His and Receive His Ultimate Blessings
¨I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: 20 That thou mayest love the LORD thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he is thy life, and the length of thy days: that thou mayest dwell in the land which the LORD sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.¨ Deuteronomy 30:19-20
¨Numbers 14:8 says if He delights in us, then He will give us a land flowing with milk and honey. This means in order to receive a land flowing with milk and honey He must delight in us. This notes a condition of obedience and faith. We have to embrace and conform with His ways (the cross) to receive the spiritual blessings and to receive eternal life.¨ Karen Cochran
¨And now, I beseech thee, let the power of my Lord be great, according as thou hast spoken, saying, 18 The LORD is longsuffering, and of great mercy, forgiving iniquity and transgression, and by no means clearing the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation. 19 Pardon, I beseech thee, the iniquity of this people according unto the greatness of thy mercy, and as thou hast forgiven this people, from Egypt even until now.¨ Numbers 14:17-19
PRAYER: Heavenly Father thank You for being so unimaginably loving and benevolent to Your creation, to all those You made in Your very image. I love You LORD Jesus and here and now give You praise and thanksgiving for coming to die for my sins and then buried and raised again for my justification. Now dear LORD, please make me whole, from the inside out. Please pour out Your Holy Ghost on my life now and use this vessel to bring eternal glory to You. Bless Your people to abide in You Jesus, to have vital union with You and thereby the abundance of fruit, more fruit, and much fruit. In Jesus´ name. Amen.
You can Have a … Jesus is the Great Shepherd of His Sheep (Heb. 13:20; Lk. 15) A FRESH START WITH GOD (First, if you are not certain that you are genuinely born again, please go here first) Let’s get something straight…. the disciple, the mere man writing this message is more in need of JESUS than anyone who ever lived! No one needs Jesus more than I do and yet, we must do things HIS way, not our own (Ephesians 3:8). “There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.” Proverbs […]
Conditions and Consequences: Beware of False Prophets
God is not getting ready to bless any person who has not repented and put their lives in the hands of the nail-scarred risen Savior Jesus Christ. Beware of the promise peddlers who indiscriminately dish out promises and never mention the necessity of meeting the conditions. We’d better begin noticing the “IF“‘s in God’s Word – the conditions, the things God requires. Here you go, let me assist…. “Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be […]
"Fruitful in the Land of My Affliction" [podcast]
