Only A Fool Is Slow To Believe The Inspired Words Of God

Acts 28:23-27, “And when they had appointed him a day, there came many to him into his lodging; to whom he [the Apostle Paul] expounded and testified the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Jesus, both out of the law of Moses, and out of the prophets, from morning till evening. And some believed the things which were spoken, and some believed not. And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one word, Well spake the Holy Ghost by Esaias the prophet unto our fathers, Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive: 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 should be converted, and I should heal them.”

The Apostle Paul was being horribly persecuted and prosecuted for preaching the Gospel. He calls for the chief leaders among the Jews to hear his petition This is the context surrounding our text passage from Acts chapter 28. I love this chapter of the inspired Holy Bible. Our text passage says that Paul expounded the Jewish leaders from morning until evening with the Word of God. Yet, at the end of the day only some believed, others did not believe.

I encourage you to read Acts chapter 28. It is an amazing passage of inspired Scripture! I find it disturbing that it was the Christian women, not Jesus' own chosen Apostles, who were the first to visit Christ's tomb after He was laid to rest. When Jesus' mother (called the mother of James), Mary Magdalene and the other ladies saw that the tomb was empty, and two angels in shining garments confirmed to them that Jesus had risen from the dead as He foretold, they immediately went to back to tell the Apostles.

You couldn't make this stuff up. Jesus' own Apostles didn't believe the report of the women. Luke 24:11, “And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not.” That is hard for me to process. These eleven men (Judas Iscariot commit suicide after betraying the innocent Son of God to death, who was the twelfth) who had seen Christ perform umpteen miracles—Who made the blind to see, the deaf to hear, the dumb to speak, the lame to walk, who healed the sick, and raised the dead—now refused to believe THE TRUTH that Christ has risen triumphantly from the dead. Jesus Christ is risen dear reader!!!

Two of the disciples who were present when the ladies testified of all they had seen at Jesus' empty tomb, walked to Emmaus with downcast saddened faces. We read in Luke chapter 24 that Jesus approached them and started asking them why they were sad. They engaged in a lengthy conversation as Christ expounded them in Moses and the prophets concerning Himself, yet the Bible says Jesus' true identity was kept holden (hidden) from them. The two disciples expressed their disbelief of all which had happened, which compelled Jesus to lovingly reprimand them in Luke 24:25-26 “Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken: Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?” Why are humans so stubborn to believe the plain truth that is right in front of them?

They invited Jesus to stay with them, but the Bible says Jesus pretended that He couldn't stay for the evening, but He really wanted to stay. Luke 24:28, “And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as though he would have gone further.” I am so grateful to God for being transparent in His Word, to allow us to see Jesus' humanity. They asked Jesus to stay, but He so: “No, than you anyway, but I must be going.” The Bible says they constrained (begged) Him to stay, and Jesus did. I love that. The Lord was being a true gentleman, not taking advantage of their kindness and hospitality. We serve an ethical Savior!

As the three finished their dinner, Jesus' true identity was revealed unto the two disciples and they marvelled. Luke 24:32, “And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?” Dear friend, you should read the inspired King James Bible each day until you get heart burn, that is, until your soul burns from THE TRUTH (Jeremiah 20:9).

So the two enlightened disciples (who now believed) went back to tell the eleven Apostles all that they had seen and heard. Then suddenly, Jesus appeared in the room, but they thought it was a ghost. Luke 24:36-37, “And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you. But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit.” Again, their woeful lack of faith is disturbing. Not once, but twice, the eleven Apostles express their foolish lack of faith. That blows my mind!

I mean, the Apostles had seen Jesus raise Lazarus from the dead, who stank with bodily rot after being dead for four days in the grave. They had seen Jesus feed 5,000 people with a little boy's lunch. They had seen the blind healed so that they could now see. They had beheld lame people walk again, and a woman with an issue of blood healed after 12 years of suffering. They witnesses miracle after miracle. Yet, after witnessing all of these hundreds (and perhaps thousands) of supernatural miracles by the Son of God, they still were not convinced. Good night in the morning folks, what does it take to convince someone to believe?

I have learned in my brief time on earth that in every circumstance, some sinners will believe the Gospel but other will not. The Bible teaches that even if some lost sinners were to see the dead raised, they still would not believe the Gospel. That is so sad and tragic! Luke 16:30-31, “And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent. And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.” The formerly rich man (now poorer than poor) begged Abraham to send Lazarus from the dead to warn his five living unsaved brothers, but his sincere request was denied. Abraham reiterates the truth that if lost sinners won't believe the written inspired Words of God, then they are beyond hope.

About thirty-five years ago, I shared the Gospel with an older man that I worked with as truck mechanics. His name was Andy. I'll never forget what he said to me: “I won't believe until God knocks on my front door, hands me a Bible and says, 'This is my Word'.” I have often felt sorry for Andy. His wife was a devout Catholic, but he was more of an agnostic (not sure what he believed). Andy was a good man, but lost in his sins without Jesus Christ. Dear reader, if you still don't believe the truth, despite the clear signs of God's existence everywhere we look in nature, then there's nothing that will change your mind (Psalms 19:1-3; Romans 1:20). 

There is an abundant amount of evidence showing that Jesus is who He claimed to be. History verifies the Holy Bible. Archaeology verifies the Holy Bible. Science verifies the Holy Bible. Nature verifies the Holy Bible. The dark sinful human nature verifies the Holy Bible.

The Greatest Faith In Israel

I love this precious true account in the Scripture...

Luke 7:1-10, “Now when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people, he entered into Capernaum. And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear unto him, was sick, and ready to die. And when he heard of Jesus, he sent unto him the elders of the Jews, beseeching him that he would come and heal his servant. And when they came to Jesus, they besought him instantly, saying, That he was worthy for whom he should do this: For he loveth our nation, and he hath built us a synagogue. Then Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying unto him, Lord, trouble not thyself: for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof: Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed. For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say unto one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it. When Jesus heard these things, he marvelled at him, and turned him about, and said unto the people that followed him, I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel. And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the servant whole that had been sick.”

Do you know why Jesus said this centurion (a commander over 100 soldiers) had the “greatest faith” in Israel? By the way, I cannot think of a greater compliment than for Christ Himself to bestow such admirable words of praise toward any man. Wow! I love this Bible passage, because it encourages me to have like faith. Why did Jesus say that this Roman centurion had the GREATEST FAITH in Israel? It was simply because the centurion believed that Jesus was who He claimed to be, God in the flesh (John 10:33; 1st Timothy 3:16 - cited only from the King James Bible). If Christ has been a mere mortal man, then He couldn't have commanded the sick servant to be healed. But Jesus was the God-man, 100% God and 100% man.

Pastor John MacArthur Denied Jesus' Deity

I heard Pastor John MacArthur (1939-2025) foolishly teach that if Jesus had God's blood flowing in His veins that he couldn't have been 100% a man. So, according to Dr. MacArthur Jesus DIDN'T have God's blood flowing in His veins. That is the sin of BLASPHEMY! John MacArthur slanders the inspired Word of God by denying Jesus' deity! Let me remind you dear reader that the Bible teaches Jesus was born of a virgin, meaning that God in Heaven alone is Jesus biological Father (Isiah 7:14; Matthew 1;23).

Pastor John MacArthur heretically teaches:

“It isn't human flesh, human bones, and divine blood. That's not a man. It is medically impossible to think of Christ's blood as divine. It is theologically impossible to think of Christ's blood as divine. It is Scripturally impossible to think of Christ's blood as divine. He would be less than man. His blood is human blood.” [emphasis added] —Dr. John MacArthur, 'The Precious Blood - Part 1'

GET THEE BEHIND ME SATAN!!! Evidently Mr. MacArthur forgot the VIRGIN BIRTH! What normal man has ever been born of a virgin? That's right, NONE! Jesus was 100% a man, but he had God's divine blood in His veins, making Him 100% God as well; otherwise Jesus would have had a sinful nature, just like you and me (Romans 5:12). Woe unto John MacArthur!

Woe unto Bob Jones University (BJU) for bidding John MacArthur Godspeed! Woe unto Dr. Steve Pettit (incompetent BJU president from 2014 to 2022), Marty Herron (former incompetent pastor of Harvest Baptist Church on Guam from 1999 to 2018), and anyone who else who bids this false prophet John MacArthur Godspeed. Woe unto the Harvest Baptist Church on Guam for bidding this ungodly reprobate Godspeed! 2nd John 1:11, “For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.” All of the aforementioned religious people and organizations have blood on their hands, for betraying the Lord Jesus Christ!!!

What saith the Scripture? Acts 20:28, “Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.” Did you catch it? The Bible says that GOD purchased THE CHURCH with HIS OWN BLOOD. There you have it in writing—Jesus had God's blood flowing in His veins! Woe unto Dr. MacArthur and any other theological liar who teaches that Jesus' didn't have God's blood flowing in His earthly veins. How could Jesus be the only begotten (biological) Son of God and not have His heavenly Father's blood?

Are you a fool dear reader? That is, have you been slow to believe all that Moses and the prophets, and all that Jesus and the Apostles, have spoken? I believe that Jesus is the only begotten Son of God, the very Christ, God almighty in the flesh!

The Big Lie

Acts 13:39, “And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.”

I found the following helpful information at the GraceAnswers.info website...

“Free Grace Gives People a Free Ticket to Sin”

Expose the Lie. Reveal What They Refuse to Say.

There is a charge constantly leveled against Free Grace theology:

“If salvation is free and eternally secure, then people are free to live however they want.”

• That statement sounds forceful.
• It sounds moral.
• It sounds protective of holiness.
• But it is not honest.

Because it deliberately ignores the other half of the biblical argument.

The Lie Is Not What They Say — It’s What They Omit

• They talk endlessly about salvation.
• They warn loudly about assurance.
• They threaten constantly with loss.
• But they say almost nothing about divine discipline.

That omission is not accidental. It is essential to keeping the accusation alive.

Remove discipline from the conversation, and grace looks reckless.
Restore discipline, and the accusation collapses.

This Is a Category Error, Not a Moral Concern

The argument assumes something Scripture never teaches:

“If salvation cannot be lost, then consequences disappear.”
That is not biblical logic.
That is philosophical fear.

Scripture never ties daily behavior to eternal destiny.

It ties behavior to fellowship, discipline, and reward.

Eternal life is a gift.

Accountability is ongoing.

Those are not competing truths.
They are complementary ones.

What Free Grace Actually Teaches

• Free Grace does not say sin is harmless.
• Free Grace does not say obedience is optional.
• Free Grace does not say God looks the other way.

Free Grace says something far more sobering:

• You cannot undo regeneration. But you can invite divine discipline.
• You can lose intimacy with God.
• You can suffer real consequences in this life.
• You can forfeit eternal rewards.

That is not leniency. That is seriousness without fear-mongering.

Divine Discipline Is the Missing Doctrine

God disciplines believers precisely because they are secure.
Discipline is not the threat of rejection.
Discipline is the proof of sonship.

A judge punishes criminals.
A Father disciplines children.

If God never disciplined His people, grace would be suspect.
But Scripture says He does — firmly, personally, and lovingly.
Grace does not remove God’s hand.

Grace explains why that hand belongs to a Father, not an executioner.

The Irony They Never Address
If fear of Hell were the only thing restraining sin, then assurance would be morally dangerous.

Yet, Scripture does not motivate holiness with terror of damnation.

It motivates holiness with:

• love
• identity
• accountability
• discipline
• future evaluation

Fear-based systems produce outward conformity and inward anxiety.

Grace-based systems produce responsibility grounded in security.

The Real Issue Is Control, Not Holiness

Threat-based religion needs uncertainty to function. Grace removes leverage.

When eternal life is settled, teaching must appeal to truth, growth, and responsibility — not fear. That makes grace dangerous to systems built on intimidation. So they call it license.

The Mic Drop

Free Grace does not teach: “Sin freely.”

Free Grace teaches:

“You are eternally secure —and therefore fully accountable to a holy Father who disciplines His children.”
The Big Lie is not grace.
The Big Lie is pretending discipline doesn’t exist.

You Still Have A Chance To Settle Out Of Court

John 3:1-7, “There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him. Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.”

Dear reader, please do not think that this matter of being born again is mere religious talk. This is a LEGAL MATTER! You have sinned against a holy God, your Creator. Thus, you are guilty according to Romans 3:10-20. There is a long criminal record against you in Heaven if you have not received Christ yet (Revelation 20:12). As such, there is a penalty for your wickedness, which is to burn in the fires and torments of the Lake of Fire (Hell) forever and ever without hope or rest day nor night (Revelation 14:11, 20:11-15, 21:8). John 3:18 declares that if you are not saved, you are ALREADY CONDEMNED, which means when you die you'll go straight to Hell.

God the Father loves all humanity. God loves YOU dear friend and He has made a way of escape (Romans 5:9). God is holy and His holiness absolutely demands justice! The wages of sin is death, not good works (Romans 6:23). Billions of foolish hellbound religious people think their good works can satisfy the wrath of God against sinners, but it cannot. God required a perfect sacrifice, which perfect sacrifice Jesus became on Calvary's cross, as a Lamb without spot nor blemish, who was killed for our sins (John 1:29; 1st Peter 1:18-19). JESUS PAID IT ALL!!!

To settle this legal matter out of court, so to speak, God the Father is offering you dear friend (and every human being) an incredible offer, simply because God loves you (John 3:16; Romans 5:8). God sent His only begotten (biological) Son into the world to die a criminal's death on a lonely cruel cross, as full payment for YOUR SINS and MINE (John 3:16). Literally, Jesus who knew no sin became as sin, so that we who knew no righteousness could be made the righteous of God in Christ (2nd Corinthians 5:21; Philippians 3:9). What a great Savior!!!

You still have an opportunity dear reader to settle out of court with God the Father. Jesus has already paid for your sins, but you must appropriate His gift by resting in (trusting) Jesus as your Savior. This means abandoning all false hopes of relying upon turning from your sinful ways (aka, the “repent of your sins” heresy), serving Christ, inviting Jesus into your life as “Lord,” water baptism, keeping sacraments, confessing sins to a priest, being willing to turn from your sins, and other heresies that pollute, pervert and complicate God's simple plan of salvation, which is obtained only through faith alone, by grace alone, in Jesus Christ alone. 

Hebrews 4:10-11, “For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his. Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.”

Trying to reform your own life by turning from your sinful behavior to be saved is NOT Bible repentance, it is manmade behavior modification. It is works, not grace (Romans 4:4). You don't have to be willing to forsake your sinning to get to heaven; Christ died on a cross to pay for your sins, so that you could freely go to Heaven. Matthew 1:21, “And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.” Again and again in the inspired Holy Scripture we read that Jesus died on a cross to save us from our sins (Luke 19:10; John 3:17); but nowhere will you find any Scripture that requires being willing to forsake the world and a lifestyle of sinning to be saved.

One of my favorite free grace preachers, Pastor Harry A. Ironside (1876-1951), wrote these prolific words of truth...

"Repentance is the very opposite of meritorious experience. It is the confession that one is utterly without merit, and if he is ever saved at all it can only be through the merits of our Lord Jesus Christ, 'who gave himself a ransom for all.' Here is firm footing for the soul who realizes that all self-effort is but sinking sand. Christ alone is the Rock of our salvation."

SOURCE: Pastor Harry A. Ironside, from his book: 'Except Ye Repent,' p. 36

Clearly, Ironside taught a Free Grace view of the Gospel. Pastor Ironside further states...

“The Gospel is not a call to repentance, or to amendment of our ways, to make restitution for past sins, or to promise to do better in the future. These things are proper in their place, but they do not constitute the Gospel; for the Gospel is not good advice to be obeyed, it is good news to be believed. Do not make the mistake then of thinking that the Gospel is a call to duty or a call to reformation, a call to better your condition, to behave yourself in a more perfect way than you have been doing in the past …

Nor is the Gospel a demand that you give up the world, that you give up your sins, that you break off bad habits, and try to cultivate good ones. You may do all these things, and yet never believe the Gospel and consequently never be saved at all.”

SOURCE: Pastor Harry A. Ironside, from his tract: 'What Is The Gospel?'

If you will simply by faith (taking God at His recorded Word), accept Christ's sacrificial death on the cross as full payment for your sins, believing that Jesus was buried but then physically resurrected from the dead three days later, then you will be instantly, irrevocably and permanently saved (i.e., born again, redeemed). This is 'THE GOSPEL' (1st Corinthians 15:1-6), by which all who BELIEVE IT are saved (1st Thessalonians 4:14; Romans 1:16). You have God's PROMISE of eternal life, IF you believe (Titus 1:2). God promises to “SAVE THEM THAT BELIEVE” (1st Corinthians 1:21b). What an awesome God, Creator and Savior!!!

Galatians 2:21, “I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.”

A Christian's Sins Can Never Jeopardize Eternal Security

Ephesians 1:12-14, “That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ. In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.”

Many foolish pastors, missionaries, religious authors and evangelists today associate living a changed life with the new birth, which is the heresy of 'Lordship Salvation.'

Most of them fail to make any distinction between someone who is saved or unsaved when they speak of living a changed life, but it doesn't matter even if they did because one's behavior has absolutely NOTHING to do with getting saved by faith in Christ alone.

Eternal life is a gift for the guilty, not a reward for the righteous. They need to get their Bible facts straight!

Many believers live horrible lives of open sin. The Bible is full of such sinful saints. That doesn't mean it is okay to live in disobedience to God, but we all do just that at time.

The truth is that no one is any less sinful or more righteous in God's sight than the next Christian. You're either saved or lost, period. If you are saved, then the ONLY righteousness you have is God's imputed righteousness. What saith the Scripture? Philippians 3:9, “And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith.” That is one of my favorite passages of Scripture. I love the great Bible doctrine of imputation, which beautiful word (and consequently doctrine) has been completely obliterated from the Devil's modern Bible versions.

Case in point is the toxic 'Amplified Version' which was published in 1965. Evangelist Ray Comfort based his popular 2001 'The Evidence Bible' on the Amplified Bible. Consequently, Ray fails to make mention even once in 1,984 pages of the great doctrine of IMPUTATION. Dear reader, Ray Comfort is an incompetent Bible teacher!!! I say that kindly but truthfully. No theologian or preacher is competent who totally ignores the vital doctrine of the imputed righteousness of God through faith alone, by grace alone, in Christ alone. Put another way, we are saved by HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS. That is what Jesus meant in Matthew 6:33, “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” To go to Heaven someday, you need GOD'S IMPUTED RIGHTEOUSNESS.

1st Timothy 5:24-25, “Some men's sins are open beforehand, going before to judgment; and some men they follow after. Likewise also the good works of some are manifest beforehand; and they that are otherwise cannot be hid.”

I love this tremendous passage of inspired Scripture. Some Christians do live above reproach, but there is no such thing as a Christian who can live above sinning. We are all guilty sinners in God's sight, even the best saints among us! As redeemed sinners we are still human. We still go by what we see, as the Bible concedes in 1st Samuel 16:7b, “for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.” So, we naturally form our opinion of others based upon their outward behavior and words.

And although some Christians have very lovely testimonies honoring to God, yet the Bible says those individuals still have Skeleton Closets full of sins, failures and misdeeds (we just don't see them). That is what the Bible means in 1st Timothy 5:24. No child of God can boast of our own turning from sin, serving Christ or walking faithfully in holiness because salvation is “Not of works, lest any man should boast” (Ephesians 2:9).

There are a great deal many false prophets today lurking in the churches, mission field, Bible colleges and social media who ascribe to the unbiblical idea that to get to Heaven your faith must produce works, which is the heresy of 'Lordship Salvation.' I like how Pastor Ralph Yankee Arnold defines Lordship Salvation in the following quotes...

“Lordship Salvation is the unsupportable and unbiblical belief that the performance of good works, the promise of good works, or the evidence of good works, must accompany faith in Christ to establish or provide evidence that such faith has resulted in eternal life.” —Pastor Ralph Yankee Arnold, 'Jesus Versus John MacArthur'

“Salvation is one thing and service is another, and never the two goes together. No man is saved because he serves, and no man has to serve because he is saved. Gotta keep them separate. And if you don't do it, the Scriptures will be confusing to you. You'll not rightly divide what God has to say.” —Pastor Ralph Yankee Arnold, "Why Lordship Salvation Is Wrong"

In the belly of the whale, Jonah pondered the great biblical truth that, “Salvation is of the LORD” (Jonah 2:9). And it sure is dear friend! If you ever enter through Heaven's pearly gates some glorious in the future, it will only be because you appropriated Jesus' sacrifice on the cross as full payment for your sins. JESUS PAID IT ALL!!!

To be born again my friend, you simply need to by faith (taking God at His recorded Word in the inspired Scripture) receive Christ's sacrifice on the cross as full payment for your sins, believing that He was buried, but then three days later physically resurrected from the dead. This is 'THE GOSPEL' (1st Corinthians 15;1-6) by which all who BELIEVE IT are saved instantly, irrevocably and permanently (Romans 1:16). You have God's Word on it (Titus 1:2).

The only righteousness that I have is God's imputed righteousness, which is by faith in Jesus alone. Literally, the moment I trusted Christ as a 12 year old boy man in the summer of 1979, Jesus took my sins upon Himself and transferred His righteousness to me by faith. 2nd Corinthians 5:21, “For he [God the Father] hath made him [God the Son] to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him [God the Son].” Dear reader, if you ever make it to Heaven someday, it will be solely upon the merit of the only begotten Son of God, and not because you tried to turn away from your sinning.

Just because I may sin more or less than you doesn't jeopardize my eternal security one iota. Biblically, I can live like the Devil and still have 100% assurance that I am going to Heaven. The reason why is because I wasn't saved by good works in 1979, I was saved by receiving Christ's sacrifice on Calvary's cross as full payment for my sins, trusting that He is risen. 1st Thessalonians 4:14, “For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.” I love that Bible verse!

By God's grace, I've been saved for 46 years and contrary to today's deadly neo-evangelical false prophets, I do know my facts as a fundamentalist Bible-believing preacher. Those reckless but sincere preachers are unfortunately caught between grace and works (a helpful sermon by Pastor Ralph Yankee Arnold). Sadly, neo-evangelicals with their Lordship Perversion won't be going to Heaven (Galatians 1:6-9; Matthew 7:13-14; Luke 13:23-24).).
