    I went and saw the Christmas Chosen with my daughter who wanted to see it. There was something about it that made me very uneasy. I don't think that would have happened before seeing the teachings of Spencer. I recognize compromise alot more than I did.

    I was a student at Bob Jones in the mid-1990s, and I remember Dr. Pickering preaching at a Bible Conference. He was coming down to the end of his life at that time. While I do not remember the substance of the message and all that he spoke on, I remember that he quoted a lot of Scripture from memory. He did so because he was basically blind at that time. He was a faithful preacher who knew God's Word.

      If you've ever hear Raymond W. Barber (former pastor of Worth Baptist, and written several books) he has large parts of the bible memorized. He's in his 80's or 90"s now, but during this preaching he'd often start by reciting a lengthy passage
      You can find his sermons online

    God Word is the same as always and forever. All Glory to Jesus. Leave those Churches straddling the fence. You are ALL in with Jesus or Not at ALL. Preaching Christ and Him Crucified is what Paul desired to preach and that alone. Brother Spencer we love and appreciate you.

    It's kind of comforting to know that we aren't the first believers to deal with political and social pressure to compromise the Gospel. Since the beginning of time, compromise has always been an issue for truth. I would love to be a politician. I'm not sure it's impossible just may not have a long career.

    I attended Northwestern Bible college in Saint Paul Minnesota. I believe that Riley would be heartbroken to see what has happened to Northwestern College today. I was a false convert when I began attending there, and believe it or not got saved in a health wealth and prosperity Church, (if God can use a donkey 😉). my oldest child attended for a year and I can’t believe how far they have fallen. When I was there my senior year they began a program called REDOC, racial and ethnic diversity on campus. Now that I understand wokeness that was not a good move. They’ve even had pro-life groups runoff campus. They used to require holy living, no dance clubs, girls and guys could only go in each others rooms with doors open on certain days and chapel is always required. The slow deterioration makes me sad.

    "In-Betweenites" Christ himself give a stern warning of what's going to happen to "Them". Rev 3:16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue(G1692)(vomit) thee out of my mouth. Christ would rather you be an athiest(cold) or believer(hot) than lukewarm(compromise) as this goes straight to Mat 6 and Luke 16; "can't serve God and Mammon".
