EO Responds To Emails

(EMAIL) You should be ashamed of yourself for talking down about Hank Lindstrom. He backs everything he says and believes with chapter and verse. You choose to cut and paste audio without telling the whole truth to please the audience and/or your agenda. You are making a big deal out of him waiting a year to \“serve the Lord\” and leading your viewers to believe he just sinned left and right for a year and then up and decided to go serve the Lord because it was convenient. That\’s not at all what he did nor what he said before you cut from the audio. There are many people who have decided to serve the Lord long after their acception of Jesus Christ. You, I believe, have an agenda and your skull and bones image proves that you\’re not someone I wish to follow and you truly should be ashamed and should remove such hurtful comments and images. Only one who lacks confidence and possesses malicious intent would post such nonsense.
(RESPONSE) Greetings in Jesus’ name.
Hank is a false teacher, according to Scripture. Even though he might cite Scripture he is misusing those verses to teach a license for immorality under a banner of grace and the gospel. He MUST be exposed publicly because he is hurting precious souls by his teachings.
You must have us confused with someone else regarding what we have posted about Hank. We refute his eternal security doctrine, not what you said. Be assured our motives are pure and some people have been helped by our teachings.
Even though you reject us as genuine, the message of the Bible will continue to shine bright for a CONDITIONAL security:
By this gospel you are saved, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain. (1 Cor 15:2)
We have come to share in Christ if we hold firmly till the end the confidence we had at first. (Heb 3:14)
Many other verses could also be cited. GOD BLESS YOU. Mt. 10:22

(EMAIL) . . .I am convinced I am going to hell and I don\’t want to go there. Being blameless before the Lord is what I want in life but I need help?
(RESPONSE) Greetings in Jesus’ name.
The first step in coming to salvation is knowing you don’t have salvation, which is where you are. (You have this MAJOR advantage over many people.)
I could write something detailed about what you need to do, but it has already been written here http://www.evangelicaloutreach.org/salvationps.htm
YOU must make a RADICAL CHANGE or you will be damned! Salvation is worth any price. Please ponder Mk. 9:43-48.
Please consider signing up for our weekly email teachings, updates, etc. If interested, you can do that here http://www.evangelicaloutreach.org/contact.htm
Whatever you do—DO NOT GO TO HELL.
GOD BLESS YOU.

(EMAIL) Hi , my name is ____.
I would just like to comment on how wonderful, and beneficial your website has been searching through it. It is very re-freshing to see that this doctrine (of truth) is being supported and explained. Having been deceived by a cult (sacred name cult, similar to the one discussed hear) but more than a year ago, I had been struggling with whether I had really been \“chosen\” or not. Through much reasoning and attending a _________ style bible study I can truly understand how destructive the \“perseverance of the saints\”is .
Do continue to be of much encouragement to people struggling for answers.
(RESPONSE) Greetings in Jesus’ name.
THANK YOU for the kind words. It is great to know you are out of the so-called “Sacred name” group and free from Calvinism. ALL of the points in Calvinism are wrong with the fifth point (“the perseverance of the saints” or eternal security) being the most deadly. Most people, who profess salvation, are in a strong delusion regarding sin AFTER getting “born again.” Because of the HERESY of eternal security people tend to think the sins that were dragging them to hell before getting born again can NOT drag them to hell since getting born again.
People have also been taught God can’t see your sins anymore—He only sees grace, the blood or Jesus when he looks at us. Hence, people have no fear in sinning. Multitudes are on the road to hell thinking they are on the road to heaven, because of THE HERESY (as we call this doctrine around here)....
We also have weekly teachings which you can receive via emails. If interested, please sign up http://www.evangelicaloutreach.org/contact.htm
Even though you know eternal security is false please consider getting our 801 page book refuting eternal security entitled, “The Believer’s Conditional Security.” There is MUCH in it that can help you better understand this salvation related subject. http://www.evangelicaloutreach.org/whatsnew.htm This book is the most exhaustive and comprehensive refutation to eternal security ever written. Remember Gal. 6:8,9 is a SALVATION passage not a rewards passage. GOD BLESS YOU.

(EMAIL) I am doing some more study about Satan and I have said in the past that Satan does not have a kingdom nor is there a kingdom of darkness. I hear this taught and preachers are always speaking about the Devil’s kingdom or the kingdom of darkness. The question is am I overlooking something? I consider Satan a prince of this world but he does not have a kingdom nor is he a king. Would you please give me you opinion? Thanks.
(RESPONSE) Greetings in Jesus’ name.
Satan does have a kingdom (Mt. 12:26). He is the prince of this world. The Greek is “ruler” (John 12:31; 14:30; 16:11;etc.). That is very close to king. Also notice Rev. 9:11.
Have you read this http://www.evangelicaloutreach.org/angels.htm
. . . GOD BLESS YOU. 1 Tim. 4:16.

(EMAIL) I have started to listen to some of the teachings today by that distinguished and humble looking bearded fellow, and although he is not 100% I found great joy in the fact that his teaching on the once saved always saved nonsense that I believed for so long is actually resounding as seamless and accurate with me. So suffice it to say I am encouraged and will be tuning in regularly. I have a degree in _________, and for ages have faltered because of sin and a wrong intellectual type of attitude which has caused me to stumble over Christ many times. Not that alone, I have guests in my body that are not supposed to be there, and have somehow managed to travel, work, live, study and brave the condition, but I want them to leave permanently so that I can be whole. Please keep in touch so that I can share some things with you. I need to open up more, some of my shame is still covered because of pride and not wanting to look bad in front of mere men. Something I need to dispose of, and quickly. . . . I hope and pray that I will live to see the Son of Man come, literally, after he protects me from all these things. . . . We are living in exciting times. Thank you for your correspondence.
(RESPONSE) Greetings in Jesus’ name.
WOW! You stated you have guests in your body which shouldn’t be there. Are you referring to demons? If so, why do you think so? How do you think you got those unwanted “guests”? Regardless your answer, there is HELP, VICTORY and DELIVERANCE for you in the Lord Jesus.
You must sincerely and humbly repent to find forgiveness and freedom from sin addictions, etc. GOD CAN AND WILL SET YOU FREE LIKE HE HAS MILLIONS OF OTHERS. Your faith in JESUS must be a submissive and trusting faith.
Don’t give up. Please read this http://www.evangelicaloutreach.org/salvationps.htm
Remember the hope held out for you as cited here in Rev. 21:4:
He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.
GOD BLESS YOU.

(EMAIL) Greetings:
I read your rationale re Mary and you are correct in concluding that Mary is the mother of Jesus...not the mother of God. If at some time in the future you do a rewrite of your article you may wish to include the fact a woman is mother only
of the individual who is conceived in her womb. Jesus the man was conceived
in Mary’s womb by the power of the Holy Ghost. Jesus God was not conceived in her womb because He is an eternal being without beginning or end. The council that declared Mary Theotokos was seriously in error.
(RESPONSE) Greetings in Jesus’ name.
We are glad you reject the Mary of Catholicism. The chief reason Catholicism stumbles over the motherhood of Mary is because of John 19:26,27, which they misunderstand. John was to take her home to care for her as his mother, because Mary’s other children were then unbelivers. That is all that is being stated there. Later John is not caring for her because they became believers.
If you reject eternal security as the HERESY which it is, write back. Too many ministries and authors speak out on Catholicism, but embrace the DEMONIC lie of once saved always saved. We hope you are different and know the real gospel.

(EMAIL) Dr. Charles Stanley is one of the smoothest toung wolves in sheep’s clothing I have ever had the displeasure to watch. His entire sermon leads right up to the point/s of putting money in his bank account. Only stupid people belive that mans teaching. Or as the word tells us the believer who does not study the bible stays stupid and can run on the wrong side of the tracks for along time because of spiritual ignorance. I will pray things will lighten up for you.
(RESPONSE) Greetings in Jesus’ name.
Charles Stanley is a handsome, smooth-talking and friendly DANGEROUS false teacher. Many INTELLIGENT people have been deceived by him as well as by other false teachers in different groups: Catholicism, Mormonism, Jehovah’s Witnesses, Church of Christ, etc.
His teaching of eternal security is a candy-coated piece of spiritual poison. He is the NUMBER ONE eternal security teacher in the world. He has done more damage in our day than any other. Are you aware that we have a powerful booklet exposing and refuting his version of once saved always saved? http://www.evangelicaloutreach.org/StanleyEbook.exe
. . . GOD BLESS YOU. Heb. 3:14.

(EMAIL) Your emails mean so much to me. I know that everything you say is backed by scripture - nothing is just your opinion. You don’t see much of that in this day and age. I pray that many souls will be saved from falling back into an ungodly lifestyle because of your stand for the Christ of the Scriptures! I was so touched by the video 40 Brave Soldiers for Jesus - I have watched it 3 times, so far. Again, thank you so much!
(RESPONSE) Greetings in Jesus’ name.
Thank you for the kind email. What happened to those 40 brave soldiers is touching/stirring and based on reality! MANY have died because of remaining faithful to JESUS. Our turn might come before this life is over!!!! We MUST remain faithful regardless the cost. If we don’t have SALVATION, we don’t really have anything.
GOD BLESS YOU. Heb. 3:14.

(EMAIL) I always thought I was a Christian, yet I don’t know anymore. How can you tell? How can I know Jesus personally? I’ve said the prayer come into my life a lot . I realize I have been living a mostly moral life, but I don’t think I am following Christ. I sure am not living a sacrificing life. I just kind of do what I want. NO one cares or notices anyway. When I do good or when I do bad it comes out the same. I feel so lost and empty inside I don't believe God is in me. Thanks for any help you can give me. I do read the bible but I feel like I’m in a vacuum. I don’t hear God.
(RESPONSE) Greetings in Jesus’ name.
One of the BEST ways to know if you are a Christian NOW is answer the following for yourself: ARE YOU ADDICTED TO ANY SIN—porn, drunkenness, any type of sexual sin, lying, etc.? Are you listed in these verses: 1 Cor. 6:9,10; Eph. 5:5-7 and Rev. 21:8? Gal. 5:19-21 also has a listing.
JESUS must be first in your life—even before your own natural family and physical life! Also you might benefit by listening to the sermon “Evidence of Saving Grace” http://www.evangelicaloutreach.org/sermons.htm
Are you serving him somehow? Are you bringing forth good fruit? Are you zealous for the things of the Lord? Are you ashamed of Jesus or the gospel before others?
This should be very helpful also http://www.evangelicaloutreach.org/newconverts.htm

(EMAIL) I do not believe once saved always saved. Would God hold me responsible if I attend a church whose pastor is in line with God’s teachings but he does teach once saved always saved. He is __ years old who is also from a Pentecostal back ground but is preaching from an independent Baptist pulpit. I realize as we all do, he has some maturing in Christ to do but I do not want to hurt or mislead others. Please respond at your earliest convenience.
(RESPONSE) Greetings in Jesus’ name.
Let me first answer your question with this: How serious is it for a Christian to attend a Catholic mass, Mormon church or Jehovah’s Witness kingdom hall? Should that Christian SUPPORT that message with their money and presence? The same holds true with you.
Please know there is something VERY WRONG with any so-called “pastor” who teaches eternal security. The Bible is GLARINGLY conditional security. Please for your sake, and others, do NOT support such wickedness.
BTW, a pastor is already supposed to be sound before he starts to preach or hold that position....
GOD BLESS YOU. Heb. 3:14.
