Worst Thing You Can Do As A Christian Is Stay Silent

by David J. Stewart | June 2020

       The absolute worst thing you can do as a Christian is to stay silent about heresy! As a general rule, we ought to keep quiet. Proverbs 10:19, “In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin: but he that refraineth his lips is wise.” The writer of the Proverbs, King Solomon, has much to say about keeping our mouth shut! So please don't misunderstand my article. Wisdom is knowing WHEN to speak and when not to speak! Proverbs 17:28, “Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding.” James 3:7-8 teaches that “the tongue can no man tame,” because our human “heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked” (Jeremiah 17:9) and “out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh” (Matthew 12:34). Therefore, a wise person generally keeps quiet, not speaking unless they have something good, edifying, informative or helpful to say that honors God. Oh be careful little tongue what you say, for the Father up above is looking down in love!

As I grow older, I am learning more and more to just keep my mouth shut! I am reminded of a great truth I learned from Pastor Jack Hyles called: “God's 'Get Character Quick' Plan.” If you don't know what you are talking about, then you should just keep your mouth shut;  but if you do open your mouth, you had better be able to back up what you are saying! Albeit, I have learned that there are times that you should ALWAYS speak up:

  1. SPEAK UP WHEN YOU LOVE SOMEBODY. Tell them! I always tell my family that I love them. I often say, “Love youse guys!” I told a woman across the street three years ago in 2017 that I loved her (and I meant it with all my heart). Unfortunately, she doesn't care. I have the perfect peace that at least I told her how I felt. You cannot talk reason or sense with them, because they are afraid to dare go against CULT HEADQUARTERS at Bob Jones University. I'm telling you, this is a damned religious cult!!! I thank God that I think for myself and am not indoctrinated by some heretical so-called “church” that functions in every way like a Satanic cult! Remember, Satan's ministers of unrighteousness are transformed to appear as ministers of righteousness (2nd Corinthians 11:13-15). Do you really think the Bible is referring to Anton LaVey and The Church Of Satan? Do they appear as minister of righteousness? No, they admit they worship Satan! The Bible is warning us about the Dr. Steve Pettit's and the Pastor John MacArthurs, and bewitched churches like Harvest Baptist Church on Guam that follow these damnable heretics into the fires of Hell! Don't you also follow the Pied Piper! Don't you do it! I said don't you do it!!! Don't be their fool!!! 2nd Corinthians 11:19, “For ye suffer fools gladly, seeing ye yourselves are wise.” I praise God that I am on the right side of THE TRUTH!!! Hallelujah!

  2. SPEAK UP ABOUT HERESY CREEPING INTO CHURCHES, HOMES AND BIBLE COLLEGES. The second time when you ought to speak up is over heresy creeping into ANYWHERE! Bob Jones University didn't just go to hell overnight. The change began at some point decades ago. I am not a David Cloud fan, because he also perverts the Gospel of free grace, but even Mr. Cloud saw that BJU was turning Calvinist as recent as 2004. I do not know when it started, but what BJU teaches today is light-years apart from what their dear founder preached in 1944. Dear friend, I KNOW what I am talking about. I've been around for 53 years and I've paid attention! We've invited the Devil's modernists and religious liberals right into our Bible colleges and churches, even paying them to rob us of the faith once delivered unto the saints! Dr. Bob Jones Sr. said that!!! According to Paysa, Steve Pettit as president of Bob Jones University is getting paid about $250,000 a year. I've said all along that these people are all about making money. Neo-evangelicalism is all about the love of money (although they would never admit such a shameful thing). Wake up people! I don't know Dr. Pettit's actual salary, but it is disgusting! Pastor John MacArthur's Masters Of The Universe is being Investigated by authorities for paying his son-in-law Kory Welch $7,610,399. The ministry is not about making money! You can tell a false prophet by his extravagant salary and lifestyle! They are being accused of being crooks! Read the disturbing news for yourself! Should it be surprising that crooked preachers in the pulpit, who pervert the Gospel of free grace into a works-based lie, should also be financially accused of being crooks? I haven't made a single penny since 2002 when I began my online ministry for the Lord Jesus Christ, and I never will take a penny! I do this because I love God, truth and you dear friend. I love Harvest Baptist Church on Guam, but they despise me for calling them out as heretics!!! Evangelist Billy Sunday (1862-1935) rightly said:

“I've stood for more sneers and scoffs and insults and had my life threatened from one end of the land to the other by this God-forsaken gang of thugs and cutthroats because I have come out uncompromisingly against them.” —Billy Sunday

And so it is with me and the Bob Jones University camp and their graduates! I am the sworn enemy of the Lordship Salvation heresy! I am the sworn enemy of the Bible-corrupting movement! I am the sworn enemy of crooked preachers. Listen to what Dr. Bob Jones Sr. warned everyone about crooked crooks for preachers, who rob God's people of their faith:

“He [Jude] said, well it was 'needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith, which once for all [was] delivered unto the saints.'

Now wait a minute, you've got something worth contending for! Isn't it strange that something so valuable and so wonderful as saving faith is something we that have to be exhorted to contend for? Why, if you had a diamond worth $5,000 you wouldn't leave it just lying around anywhere. If you had $1,000,000 in gold, you'd go put it in a vault. [If] Anybody tried to get it, you'd fight to keep them from gettin' it. And we just sit down and just let people steal the faith that Christians have, and never bother about it. Some of us pay 'em to do that! Some of us pay preachers to stand in the pulpit and steal the faith of the saints of God, and send our children to Hell. The most crooked crook on God Almighty's earth is a preacher who stands in a Trinitarian pulpit, and steals the faith of people!

You know I've said it many a time; if I was up in Heaven, fifty years from now (and the Lord tarried), and any religious liberal ever sat in a classroom in this institution, and tried to disseminate his infidelity, I'd ask God Almighty to excuse me for a little while, and I'd come back down to this school and get a stick of dynamite, and I'd blow it into smithereens! I'd rather see this school a heap of rubbish, just a little rubbish here and a little rubbish yonder, than see the time ever come we could be such softies, we'll sit down and let the Devil put his modernists and religious liberals in here to rob them of the faith. And yet that things going on in America, from one end of this country to the other!” [emphasis added] —Dr. Bob Jones Sr.; YouTube | MP4 | MP3

Read what heretic Dr. John MacArthur says for yourself, that salvation will COST YOU!!! ...

“Don’t believe anyone who says it’s easy to become a Christian. Salvation for sinners cost God His own Son; it cost God’s Son His life, and it’ll cost you the same thing.” —Pastor John MacArthur, 'Grace To You,' an updated quote from his book 'Hard To Believe', page 93.

LIAR!!! Liar liar soul on fire! Just as Dr. Bob Jones Sr. warned everyone, religious liberals have infiltrated and taken over his college 50 years later, robbing people of their FAITH. You don't get saved by paying the price of making full surrender to Christ! Nor do you get saved by paying the price of “being willing to turn from your sins”! That's what BJU teaches today in their corrupt Statement of Faith! Nor do you get saved by faithfully running the race and persevering in holiness, ministry and service to others! That's what BJU's new president, Dr. Steve Pettit, heretically taught 2,700 students on January 26, 2020 in chapel.

Tragically, Bob Jones University, Steve Pettit, John MacArthur, Sam Horn and Harvest Baptist Church on Guam all preach ANOTHER GOSPEL. Galatians 1:6-8, “I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.” I say this all with a broken heart, God is my witness, because I love you all unconditionally with God's love. You've all been deceived by the Devil. You really have! Galatians 4:16, “Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?” I love you Harvest Baptist Church on Guam, and there's nothing you can do about it! Jesus is precious!!!
