Still More From the Gainsayer
Part I

Even though we are told by the risen Saviour to give these guys two chances and unless they are beginning to hear and see and understand and then reject - withdraw, etc.  We leave them alone with their brain and blindness because Paul says these guys ... well, listen to the sermon and see many scriptural reasons why we should leave the porch with these guys because they can't recognize the sunshine for what it is - the Risen Son!

However, in this sermon, I still do answer this guys questions and comments; not for his sake because he won't hear them, but for our sake to learn answers to questions and comments gainsayers make. For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart... and just like the Israelites, the Gentiles are following suit.  As interest in the goodness of God fades away more and more, the rapture draws closer and closer - when God will cut off the Gentiles. See Romans 11:22

Even More From the Gainsayer
But Now I Should Be Done With Him!
Part II

We continue to show this gainsayer that he even says some things correctly as he actually tries to disprove Paul Only.. he actually PROVES Paul Only.  It is hilarious.  But when someone is never able to come to the knowledge of the truth, we can see why when we look at their reasoning and observations.  It is like trying to watch this guy dock the Staten Island Ferry with his own thumb for a rudder!  It isn't going to happen nor is he going to understand Paul Only until he realizes and acknowledges the truth - a rightly divided KJB according to Paul only.  Then and only then will he see the purpose of the entire Bible together.  It certainly is not for personal application.  Amazing, eh!

Anyway, hear a few more of the gainsayer's sayings and see just how simple the answers are but to them - it doesn't matter... but we must try at first, anyway.

A New Year Challenge

I was not able to present a 'sermon' / lesson, etc. so Mark filled in for me.  I believe you would enjoy listening as well as learn from his testimony and teachings as he offers a challenge to the listeners as well as to himself for this new year.

Wisdom & Grief; Knowledge & Sorrow

The grief and sorrow we have 'for others' is because of the wisdom and knowledge we have "from" God and the KJB - NOT a grief and sorrow "because" of God, etc.  Let's look once again at Paul's manner of life when it comes to our concerns for others.  How can we be happy and jovial when we see our friends, family and neighbors reject the joy of God's goodness through Paul's teachings?  How can we just ignore the fact that they are caught up in their religion as we once were?  And when it gets to the reprove and rebuke or even to the reject stage of our relationships, does that mean we are grumpy and angry towards others?  Not at all.  It just means that we care and it is hard for us when we are not allowed to tell others or even show others the change in our life.  Our changes are more than 'just being saved' - we are to show a lifestyle change! 

Because our new knowledge and wisdom is a serious thing, Paul tells us to be soberminded!

Final Good-bye Comments to Our Gainsayer

His last comments showed us his unwillingness to accept my teachings showing that Hebrews to Jude is directed 'to'  the Tribulation saints.  We talk about it once again... and for the final time... I think.  Even in his own comments, he even comes to the proper conclusion with his proof verses - but he doesn't realize it.

 Where is Our Shame Today?
Part I

     We have no shame anymore these days. Even in 'accidental' or 'forced' situations, are we ever 'shamed' when something happens?  The leaven of TV, immodesty, language, etc. has taken us all down the dirty alley so far that nothing really shames us anymore. 

     Is there anything we can learn about shame in the Old Testament, Gospels, Paul's Gospel, the Tribulation and Millennium?  What applies to us and what is 'nature' in any dispensation, etc.  It is an interesting study... but more than that, it reminds us that even though 'all things are lawful,' there is still a shame we should be aware of that affects our testimony and judgment seat of Christ.  It is worth considering!

My Challenge, as a Pastor, 
to Change Direction and Emphasis
of My Local Church Family - 2002

This is the sermon that I gave to challenge the church families to change our direction and emphasis at Touchet Baptist Church, June, 2002.  It was part of my 'Garden Series' and as far as I can tell, this is the oldest sermon I have available.  I had been pastor for 6 years and was just starting to consider the seriousness of looking towards Paul with rightly dividing Paul's books, not just rightly dividing pick-n-choose by verse. 

Yes, the sermon is a "little" long... but that was the way in those days - and people stayed!  I recommend if you want to get the sermon as put forth, you should sit through it all in one sitting, as the people in Touchet did.  The unedited video will be online soon... (I hope).

The sermon begins with emphasis being put on the church family as a whole - how the community should see us as a local church.  We end the sermon by emphasizing the importance of our personal walk as that is what people see.  It was more important for our testimony to be one that is seen, not just heard!

This sermon began a 7 year 'pastoral experience' that was the most rewarding yet challenging and difficult time of my life.  At first, it was great as we learned the joy of "Paul Only;" however, the personal and family battles concerning the outward 'walk' in everyone's lives finally wore us all down.  As I have said for years, the 'truth of a rightly divided KJB following Paul Only" is what took us down. Not the devil - not a person - not the flesh - TRUTH!

See Romans 11:22

Remember, this was also presented before our years of serious Paul Only application  We were still a Baptist church, however we eventually dropped the 'Baptist' title.  We still did an occasional invitation, however we stopped them soon after this sermon.  We hadn't gone through Hebrew to Jude as Tribulation books or Acts 1-8 only as Great Commission, not to us today; now it is obvious! 

While we still believed the Baptist PSR/Gipp 'strong-arm' was the only way to preach, Paul changed us soon after.

In this case in 2002, this sermon was appropriately given and properly timed to get us all started looking on the outside walk, getting us off our brain collection of great doctrine!  It was good that I didn't know what was going to happen in the next 7 years after this sermon!

Dear Web-Family: Are you willing to accept the challenge given in this sermon?  I hope you are; and hopefully in one session - no potty or sandwich / coffee breaks - no stretches - no interruptions and I don't recommend you listen as you sit back in your recliner or bed.  It is even more timely and necessary today.  Paul's doctrine is fantastic, but his 'manner of life' is written to us directly and will be what our judgment seat of Christ will be based on.  Now is as good as time as any to put this sermon on!

Do We Have Our Shame Mixed Up?
Part II

     Are we ashamed of the testimony of the Lord?  All of it?  From Genesis to Revelation INCLUDING Paul's writings of the Risen Saviour?  Are we ashamed of Paul?  Are we ashamed of the gospel of Christ?  Are we no longer ashamed of what we wear, how we look, how we act, how we talk, who we are around, the things we do for entertainment, what we watch on tv / videos, etc.?  We used to do that 'stuff' before we were saved, etc.  Why do we still do it or why have we returned to some of it? 

     Let's go straight to the very words from the Risen Saviour and see how we should be looking at shame today!

 The Only Source of Godly Knowledge Today

One can read in the KJB the days when God gave preachers, pastors and people the knowledge He wanted them to have - but only in part, according to I Corinthians 13:8.  So where do we go today for that same knowledge?  Does God give it to them who are walking righteously?  To them who pray consistently?  To those who give regularly at church?  To those who always attend church when the doors are open? To those who confess their sins on a regular basis (that is, for those few sins they actually do)? Does God teach you in your heart?  Because the Bible says you have the mind of Christ, does that mean you now think like Christ wants you to?  Do you go by the 'instinct' of a Christian now?

No - not at all! 

Look to the King James 1611 Bible and ONLY to the KJB Bible.  The preacher / pastor / missionary, etc. who is preaching to you had better be preaching the King James Bible rightly divided or he is just preaching profane and vain babblings and so any 'inner' knowledge you are getting, you are getting from life's experiences (which is fine) and your own feelings (which is not fine!) or are man's wisdom of words, etc. not from God!

Amazing, isn't it!  All from "just" a book!  So many people think that we put God into a box when we 'limit' Him to a single Bible.  They just haven't rightly divided let alone read the KJB. Religion puts God into many boxes, depending on which box you choose.  God is NOT in a box - and the King James Bible is NOT A BOX!  The King James Bible is the spirit of wisdom and revelation, etc.  Listen to this sermon and see what that KJB truly is!

 Despise and Destroy the Magnificence
of Today's Pastors
Part I
Complete word for word transcription - click here.

Looking at the 'elect' from the Old Testament and seeing the dangers of being without a shepherd, we can also see today what the Pastors are doing to scatter their sincere church members.  We learn from Ezekiel 34; Jeremiah 23 as well as the Gospels along with Hebrews and Peter; but the direct application for today comes from Paul, of course, as we see what the Risen Saviour says about Pastors today. It isn't pretty! Acts 19 tells us to despise and destroy the magnificence of religion - and the leaders of religion are, of course, the pastors; so, let's study today's "beloved" pastors and see why they can be despised and their magnificence destroyed!

Despise and Destroy the Magnificence
of Today's Pastors
Part III
For though we have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers...

Complete word for word transcription - click here.

We begin the detailed look into Scriptures (as the final authority, etc.) to see what the Risen Saviour says about 'modern' pastors (including the Bible preachers, etc.) during Paul's Dispensation of Grace.  It isn't pretty at all.

We don't even get beyond the first 'description.'  We see how we have plenty of instructors but no pastors who care like a father.  Before any pastors think they do care about their congregation like a father, I suggest they see what the Risen Saviour says about fathering. 

Also, if a father could get the handle on these verses as a father, things might just turn out differently than today's results from what they currently believe and are taught - as it would for the pastors congregation.

I do believe this is a fantastic set of verses for fathers as well as pastors.  Are there any fathers and pastors who will take heed to these three 'things' for what it 'really' means to be a father and / or a pastor.

How about this bonus thought within this sermon:  We are sons of Paul!  That ought to stir a few anti-Paul folks!

Deceptions Taught from Today's Pastors!
Part I
Complete word for word transcription - click here.

When compared to a King James Bible, etc. we see that the pastors today are beguiling their congregation - people have been bewitched by their very own loving pastor.  By their good words and fair speeches, they are deceiving the hearts of the simple.

People in our churches today need to 'grow up and quit being children, tossed to and fro, carried about by every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness whereby they lie in wait to deceive... We need to speak the truth in love... and these sermons are the truth spoken in love to folks who are addicted to their church / pastor.

This morning we look at 1) ignorant worship; 2) the wrong reasons for the importance of church attendance.

Tonight, we look at 3) the purpose of the local church according to Paul, NOT Peter! 

Is the local church suppose to attract the lost so that they 'may be saved?'  Surprisingly, NO!  Check it out and then tell the truth to your family, your pastor and your friends.
