Why Should You Be Concerned Who William Irvine is and What He Taught.......

Why People Leave the Worker's Way!

Religion which is begun in hypocrisy, will certainly end in apostasy.
~ ~William Spurstowe

There are basically only two kinds of religion in the world: those based on human achievement and those based on divine accomplishment.  One says you can earn your way to heaven; the other says you must trust in Jesus Christ alone.

~ ~John MacArthur

NOTE: If you were a messenger of the REAL TRUTH, you wouldn't have to tell SCARE STORIES to get people to profess. June Douglas (On left) always used lots of fake, scare stories to whip people into line, or to attempt to guilt them into "professing!"

Here is an EXCELLENT booklet in VOT'S Gallery by Kevin Daniel called, "Vigilant Learning." This is a vital book to read to learn how to critically examine the things you hear.

A diversion is anything that diverts or distracts the attention. Countless, ingenuous ploys have been used down through the ages to direct attention away from the subject at hand. Frequently , diversions are used when one is backed into a corner, losing ground or face, in the hot seat, or feels uncomfortable. DIVERSIONS may be useful, welcome, obvious, amusing, devious or creative. Everyone has at times deliberately created a diversion. When we offer candy to a crying child with a skinned knee, we are making an attempt to divert the child's attention away from his plan. Shoplifters often use an accomplice to create a DIVERSION and distract attention from the shoplifter.

In a conversation, changing the subject or focus usually diverts attention away from the subject.

If your goal is to get your QUESTION answered, you need to be a good judge of replies.

This questionnaire was sent to us here at VOT......evidently, it was meant to accompany Jack Carroll's sermon called, “The New Testament Ministry .” If anyone knows differently, contact us and we will make the correction. Please note how Jesus Christ, who IS God , is referred to several times as, “THE PATTERN MINISTER.”
