Life Changing To have come across this message is a divine favor. It’s life changing because I’ll never view this gift the same before. All that we are / have is a gift...we have no right to anything. God is good no matter what. Thank you so much for sharing your powerful and touching testimony of His goodness.
Jack Hyles: Self-Righteously Rude Jack Hyles was known for being rude, especially to his critics and fellow followers and associates. Of course, this is the character of self-righteous authoritarian legalists like Mr. Hyles. It was clearly evident that Jack Hyles was rude to his own fellow followers when he addressed them as "idiots." As we understand from Scripture, pastors are supposed to edify their fellow congregants according to Ephesians 4:11-12. There is nothing edifying about an authoritarian pastor addressing his fellow congregants as "idiots." Jack Hyles, like all other authoritarian pastors, are examples of people who are self-righteous.
Jack Hyles: Legalistic Authoritarian Jack Frasure Hyles (September 25, 1926 – February 6, 2001) or simply Jack Hyles, was a man known for his legalistic authoritarianism. This is something that he manifested even until his very passing. As a result, Jack Hyles created a legacy of legalistic authoritarianism which still continues to this day. This shows that the crops of authoritarianism in the pastorate create an atmosphere of legalism.
Jack Hyles: Misguided Man Jack Hyles was very similar to Diotrephes in 3 John 9-11. While Jack Hyles was a man with noble intentions, he was mostly known for his abusive authoritarianism. All of this shows that Jack Hyles was a deeply misguided man.
Great Sermon! I thank God for sound preaching and when the Lord leads me to one table, I stay at that table to feast on that good solid food.
Food that is rich in vital nutrition for the new man in Christ. There aren’t too many tables that I eat from because some of the food may be tainted with just enough poison to satisfy the flesh.
Brother, I’ve said all that to say, let God keep using you because there is a famine in the land and we need (those who desires) good, hot, tasty, holy food from the Spirit of our Lord.
Hearing at Lightning Speed
Unspecified name
You must hear at lightning speed to have heard and commented on so many messages in such a short, very short, period. Example: six sermons in ten minutes.
Community of compromise. Today's compromised churches are known as community churches (another name for new evangelical churches).
Here is a quote to ponder about.
Compromise is a wolf and a sheep deciding... the wolf will eat only half of the sheep.
Compromise with apostates only allows the apostate wolves to devour the sheep. We know that Jesus Christ, The Good Shepherd, warned His Sheep about false prophets in Matthew 7:15-20.
Until then, beware of apostate wolves in sheep's clothing.
Great Sermon! New evangelicalism has become the prominent mood of evangelical organisations like Promise Keepers, AWANA, Intervarsity, Campus Crusade, World Evangelical Alliance, and so forth. It is also clearly evident in popular evangelical personalities like Tony Campolo, Bill Hybels, Max Lucado, Chuck Smith, Billy Graham, and many others. As the speaker mentioned, new evangelicalism (theological liberalism) typically begins as a changing mood. This changing mood leads to the repudiation of separation from apostasy as well as dialogue with apostates, positivism, respectability in repudation, spiritual pacifism, and eventually, neutrality towards spiritual warfare.
The speaker also noted that the first new evangelicals were the children of Biblical Fundamentalists. Unlike their forefathers, they were determined to start a new generation of evangelicalism which became known as the new evangelicalism.
Of course, apostasy had been around since the days of the Apostles writing the New Testament Epistles for our comfort and our caution.
Theological liberalism became the standard expression of apostasy throughout the 20th century onwards. We must not partner with compromise, lest we become liberal new evangelicals.
Great Sermon! I love this message now just as I did when I saw preached in person. It still challenges and convicts me today. Thankfully I can say by the grace of God that I have done more than when I heard this preached years ago. Still got a lot of growing to do.
Great Sermon! Amazing, this covers the details and sets it in the light which many need to hear about this cultish denomination. I thank God for his deliverance out of the Pentecostal movement
