Last night on television, during the vice presidential debate, Mike Pence publicly gave his testimony regarding his faith. He stated, “My Christian faith became real for me when I made a personal decision for Christ.” Bear in mind that the aforementioned ‘statement of faith’ was seen and heard by an estimated viewership of over 50,000,000 people
As I watched these brief testimonies, I shed many tears. Tears of joy because they were saved out of their false conversions, before they died. Tears of anguish because of the many false converts that proceeded them in death. That went to hell, deceived into thinking they were saved; when they were not. As I’ve
Pastor Tim Conway’s wife Ruby shares how she was a false convert under that unbiblical sinner’s prayer, which also led to her own self-righteousness. However when she witnessed her brother later become “radically miraculously saved” from his false conversion, she then began to doubt her own salvation. As most of you know, this past weekend
Immediately prior to this sermon I had witnessed to an active prostitute. She claimed that she was a Christian because she “accepted” Jesus and got baptized. None of which are salvific. I used that experience as a Segway (or segue) into this sermon. The Scripture I preached from is ~ Everyone who makes a practice
Dr. Voddie Baucham shares a real bad experience he had at a particular conference. And yes he names the denomination.

Immediately after I attended a large funeral, that preached universalism, I went out with a righteous indignation. Here I am pleading too many young lost souls in downtown Redlands. Music ‘The King Crusade’ by Paradox Interactive & Andreas Waldetoft.
This last year the Lord has placed it on my heart to minister more to smaller crowds, that have already gathered. That enables me to place an emphasis on more ‘teaching’ along with the preaching. As well as more opportunities for ministering afterwards (perhaps we can call it open-air teaching). .
Shortly after I arrived at this location, another street preacher whom I’ve never met before arrived. Normally when this occurs, the pulpit is claimed on a ‘first come first choice’ basis. But in this case, we shared the pulpit, each preaching for ten minutes. I shared one of my police shootings with this crowd. And
On this day I preached in Rancho Cucamonga, then labored in Ontario, and then into San Bernardino. The first two were brief, and non-eventful (but Gods Word promises to never return void). There were several other preachers at the first location. But much happened in San Bernardino. After preaching this sermon, one lady asked some
