JF was a baptist and it looks like he died a baptist.

Didn't I read where he had some Pentecostals evicted from Liberty Bible campus?

Wonder what he thinks now?

How long are you going to dodge this????

What is there to dodge?

Listen, I grieve for the man...and pray for his family. How can you attack OP with such vehemence, even saying he's not a christian????

Do you believe the salvation message of the church you attend??? If so then you should lament Jerry Falwell's stance, too. He was dead set against anyone who spoke with tongues. He refuted the doctrines you claim to preach.

So, what do you really believe???? That he's in heaven?

I know that there are many here who believe Falwell is in heaven and that is consistent with what they believe. It's your attack on OP that has me puzzled.

By the way, I don't rejoice at Falwell's demise. Neither do I pretend he was a great christian leader....or saved. I am deeply saddened by that, too.

Good question...this is sort of like the pot and kettle issue...lol or maybe he never heard two wrongs don't make a right.

Thanks, Josh....I was thinking the same thing.

All I know is, when James Wolfe pastored in Lynchburg, Jerry Fallwell put him through hell on earth -- trying to keep that church from growing.

I feel sorry for his family, though...I know what it is like to receive shocking news like that.

I'm sorry for JF's death, and I pray for his family. He was very conservative in a lot of political areas.

I didn't see anything wrong in Old Path's post. Like NLYP, he's very blunt in his writing. You pretty much know where they both stand on many issues. I'm puzzed that Dan is even surprised at OP's post.

Some of our young people were looking to attend Bible college at one time, so they were on many college's mailing list. They got one from Liberty College, and it plainly said if you believe in speaking in tongues, we strongly suggest you go to another school. So I guess he was against the Pentecostal belief.

Here's the FRINGE_NUTTER's 2 cents:

I do not believe that the diatribe against OP's question is justified.

Maybe "Wonder what he thinks now?" was the not the most appropriate thing to say at this time, but certainly OP does not deserve to be told that he is acting unChristian.

If any of us who believe in speaking in tongues applied to his unversity, he would not even allow us to attend. He may have taken some correct stances on abortion and helped Ronald Reagan and other conservatives to win political offices, but how can anyone who preaches Acts 2:38 hold him in such high esteem?

Let's pray for his family and stop attacking each other.

That's the FRINGE_NUTTER's two cents.

You missed the whole point!
The BIBLE will dictate if he is in heaven...the Bible will dictate where he stands in God.

IT BOILS me when some sanctimonious man tries to say..."yup...that another Baptist in hell"!

Let the Lord be the judge....he didnt need that rabid ultra con stuff then and does not need it now.

In my way of thinking..I KNOW HOW TO BE SAVED.....in my way of judging....Ill leave that up to a just God...but it will NEVER cross my lips.

Who said another Baptist went to Hell??? However Dr.Falwell died lost IF what we preach is right. YOU claimed to believe the new birth but honestly do YOU believe anything is my question?
