I am always amazed at the lack of
discernment and truth these false
emailer's have when reaching out to me.
Here is another very sad one I will
answer and
refute here as a teaching
moment for us all.
You can read the guile and anger in
this email; tragic really.

Jim,
You clearly do not understand biblical teaching or church history. Sunday is not unbiblical.
If only this emailer would read my website.
I say that Sunday as the Lords day is unbiblical ... you can gather any day of the week but do not call it the Lords day!
They have not checked the facts very well here....
See my article here:
The Catholic church did not create it, despite their claims to the opposite. Try reading early Christian literature and you will notice that before Emperor Constantine and before the existence of the Catholic system, the early church worshiped on the first day of the week -- Sunday.
Again... I teach that Sunday is NOT the Lords days and that it was early church fathers then the Roman pagans who made it the meeting day standard..... I never teach the RC church.... created Sunday but that they installed it officially! The emailer is void of truth...
But here's what you fail to grasp. Jews measured a day from sunset (6:00pm) to sunset. They met our Saturday evenings after 6:00pm, which was their Sunday. Multiple early Christian documents record this fact, as does Scripture.
Again the emailer misses truth here.....
I have no problem with this info as I teach it that way... except I reject that the bible makes Sunday the NEW Lords day as it does NO such thing. We do not go by early literature we go by holy scripture.... if you are biblical that is!
In Acts 2 .... they met DAILY....verse 46 .....
ouch to the emailer!
Second, house churches are not unbiblical.
Here the emailer falls right off the truth wagon here as I NEVER teach house churches were unbiblical. I do teach they were the correct biblical model.
I may have said here or there house churches in America are not biblical but that is a different point and taken out of context! Shame on them...
I suggest you try paying better attention to the New Testament. What is unbiblical is that "churches" we experience today. Our "church" systems today have their roots in Greco-Roman culture and Pagan ritual.
Again... if you actually read my website I teach how unbiblical todays church systems are. This emailer obviously did not study to be approved at all!!
2 Tim 2:15
Here is my article on religious buildings here:
If you don't believe me, I encourage you to purchase the book PAGAN CHRISTIANITY by Frank Viola and George Barna. It is extremely well-documented and rooted in historical fact. Read it, and discover how corrupt your idea of "church" actually is. The modern experience was NEVER what God intended, and it's not what you see in the NT or the early Christians. Come the A.D. 300s, the church became corrupt and got more corrupt.
While I agree with the premise as today's religious places are corrupt... this emailer recommends unbiblical men as a resource showing they lack truth and discernment....(Barna and Viola are a unbiblical heretical mess and I know well about their books and ill theology)
You have much in common with Joshua Chavez.
Here he mentions a worldly unbiblical heretic that I have exposed.... not sure what that has to do with the topics at hand... just an ad hom attack I guess?
So sad....
Both of you need to repent of your sin. You're no better than he is. You accuse him of lies and yet you are filled with just as many lies. You're ignorant of Scripture and church history. Try doing your homework.
If the emailer would do their home work vs lying about what I teach... he could have saved himself the sin of slander! See Prov 6
See my article on Liars here:
By the way, don't bother trying to reply as I won't read it. Reading through your site has given me enough info into you that you're not worth communicating with.
So Jesus says love your enemy and neighbor... I must be neither huh folks? Matt 5/
Matt 22
And the emailer is a liar as they communicate with me but said .... I am not worth communicating with????
You're not teachable and interested in learning the truth.
How would they know as they have not given me the chance to test what they said and reply to them.... so much unrighteous judgement here. See Matt 7
See my audio on judging right here:
Read PAGAN CHRISTIANITY and once your eyes have been opened to how far the church has fallen from God's original intent
Again they recommend heretic writers!
And my website already teaches that all over and its obvious they cannot or will not read what I teach vs just lying. God will judge them for this ..I pray they repent.
and once you repent, then perhaps I'd be willing to converse with you. But not while you revel in your pride and arrogance.
I am pretty sure this emailer.... if .....they are like 99.999999% of those that email me does NOT have any ministry to be seen .... yet they love tell others how it is to be done. How Pharisee like of them!
See Matt 23
Unless they repent of their lies I have no interest in communicating with them at all.
Paul said a little bit of sin affects much in Gal 5:9 so I will leave them be in their lies and leaven!
I hope this refuting has edified you in the full truth!
God be praised
Brother Jim
