I don't believe you and even in the link I attached he does really give all his glory to God on all of his achievements. Yet I doubt you would bother to watch the start to the finish of the link.

He stands there at the end of every show and says this---If you say 3 lines of prayer with me--you are born again---it is not truth, it is a deception making people think they are saved. He doesn't know 1% of those in the audience--most are walking the broad and spacious path that leads to destruction--this is the only way one is actually born again--Ephesians 4:22-24---one must strip off the old personality( practicer of sin= a worker of iniquity( lawlessness)and put on the new personality( righteousness)----- saying 3 lines does not accomplish that. Learning every utterance from God and applying them daily accomplishes that-- it takes quite awhile. He is a deceiver.

I wish I could give you some more rep.

A good rule of thumb to gauge if someone is speaking truth:

The more people who like him, the less truth he is speaking.

Correlates with what Jesus said:

Matthew 7:13
13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:

14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

That's your system? If someone is popular and well-liked you put him in the Liar, Liar Pants On Fire! category?

After reading some of his posts, I'm not surprised.

That's just a quick gauge.
Teachings should still be weighed against Scripture to determine accuracy.

But generally yes, the more well liked a person is by the masses, the less truth is coming out of his mouth.

John 3:19
19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.


2 Timothy 4
2 preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching. 3 For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, 4 and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths. 5 As for you, always be sober-minded, endure suffering, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.

I'm not familiar with what he has to say.
All I know for sure is, considering yourself a fundamentalist does not automatically mean you are a follower of Christ.

A Christian fundamentalist is someone who believes the Bible is true.
But many "Christian fundamentalists" don't even know what the Bible really says, let alone live it.

I am all about the Bible being the true Word of God... It is

The man is a false preacher. He partakes in Simony every day of his existence trying to sell salvation, and the masses are sadly dumb enough to eat it right out of his hands
