This is sad and horrifying. The Amazing Grace Baptist Church (AGBC) pastor thinks he is doing something great for the kingdom by getting rid of the “heretics,” but, unfortunately, he is unaware of his own heresy. This act will add another peg into the Body of Christ, to divide it even more. The KJV Bible that AGBC holds at high esteem states in Gal. 5:12: “I would they were even cut off which trouble you.” More recent Bible versions give a more specific, and more disturbing (in a good way) translation, but KJV statement fits the situation very well. I wonder if the AGBC pastor has thought of this passage yet? Hmmm…
Jesus Christ said, “By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another” (John 13:35, quoted from KJV for the sake of an argument). Billy Graham once was asked to define a “cult”; he started his response with these words: “Whenever any group claims that they, and they alone, have all the truth about God, then an alarm bell should go off in your heart and mind.” This is a powerful statement, but what can it do if the author of the statement is on the list of heretics?..
