David Wilkerson? Originalist, please take time to reread your post. Your only basis for this gentleman’s salvation are his “works” nothing more.

I quote myself..."The infilling of the Holy isn't just one of 3 steps to salvation. It is salvation." That is the basis of Wilkerson's and everyone else's salvation who belongs to Christ by virtue of the fact they have the Spirit of Christ. So yes, you are indeed acting like Sean.


Bro, the greatest testimony in the 20th century?

Again, you are pulling a Sean. And again, I quote myself..." you are completely poo-pooing one of the greatest testimonies for Jesus Christ of the 20th century." I did not say "the greatest testimony in the 20th century". You should apologize and repent.


I guess to you God is a respector of persons?


No, he is not. Peter mentions this concerning Cornelius in Acts 10. He was no respecter of persons in giving Wilkerson the Holy Ghost, just like he gave it to you.

Bro, if we are saved without the Word, then there is no foundation. If the foundation is destroyed, then humanity is lost. Esaias’ words were sober, why can’t you consider them in the light of your own? Can’t you see that the only reason you give these men heaven is because you view them as some great one?


So sad that neither you or Esaias see the harsh judgment you are setting yourselves up for. You are actually claiming doctrinal perfection. But know this, if there is even the slightest misunderstanding in anything you believe, then you are headed for hell. You guys think you are defending the word, but you are really puffed up with spiritual pride. We are talking about people who, like us, stand on the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ as their means of salvation. These are men and women who preach "washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Ghost" just like we do. Yes, I think they have misunderstood the timing of that work of God and further erred by thinking there are "2 works of grace". But God STILL bears witness of them, giving them the same gift he gave you. God is striving with them as they sort through doctrinal clarification just as he is striving with YOU. The sad part is, you don't think God is striving with you. After all, you know "the truth", and there is no more striving needed on God's part where you are concerned, right? I shudder sometimes when I read the things you guys post. I cry out, "Please have mercy on my brothers! Help them to understand just how dependent they really are on the grace you bestowed on them when you gave them your Spirit". Brother, I truly say these things out of concern. I look forward to seeing you in Glory. But I hate to think of the shame you will bear before the throne as much of what you taught is burned up as wood, hay, and stubble as it passes through the fire.
