The Holy Bible teaches us to avoid churches and pastors who stray from the teachings of the Word of God. Although I am an Independent Fundamental Baptist, most Baptist churches today have been duped by the modern counterfeit Bible versions (which means they are no longer “fundamental,” unless you mean too much “fun” and not enough “da-mental”). Atheist and theoretical physicist, Stephen Hawking, correctly states: “The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge.” Today's apostate pastors have the illusion of knowledge in the new Bible versions, but in reality they have been woefully deceived by the Devil. All of the modern Bible versions, which originate from the corrupted Alexandrian manuscripts, maliciously attack the deity of Jesus Christ, remove the Godhead, diminish the preeminence of Jesus, and wrongly redefine what it means to “repent” to be saved. Have you been deceived?

Notice that these bad pastors do not really serve Jesus Christ; but rather, “THEIR OWN BELLY”! That is, it is just a career to them, a way to pay the bills. No pastor who approaches his duty as “a job” should ever be ordained nor allowed behind any pulpit. The pastor ought to be a man of God, who actually walks with God. That's why I love listening to Dr. Jack Hyles' preaching, because you feel like you've been with a man who's been with God when you hear him. I am always encouraged, lifted up and edified after hearing Dr. Hyles preach. Sometimes I get my face ripped off, and the shoe fits just fine (ouch!), but we all need that kind of scathing, blistering, loving, hard-preaching to keep us in line. Granted, nothing can substitute for the Word of God, which Dr. Hyles readily admits himself.

People who continually listen to music, text others, watch television, gab on their cellphone and surf the internet, without ever listening to any Bible-preaching are carnally-minded. What a foolish way to waste one's life! Hardly any of my web visitors take advantage of the great preaching videos that I promote. How tragic and sad! You can listen to the same music hundreds of times and never glean the least wisdom from it, but every sermon you hear increases your level of wisdom!!! Oh, how we all need wisdom.
