The UNDENIABLE truth of salvation by GRACE!
On this 9/11, I am reminded of the words of our Saviour Jesus Christ:
John 10:10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
Islam is a great thief in our world today. A heretical, false religion based on human works that celebrates and encourages death. It is not a religion of life. It is, in its very truest sense anti-Christ and is a great manifestation of the spirit of anti-Christ that is yet in the world today. We should not be deceived; it is not a brother, or cousin to the true faith of Christ Jesus. If 9/11 taught us anything, it taught us that Islam is devilish and of the Devil. It is a thief that continues to steal the lives and the joy of living of children of God worldwide who are caught in its snare of hopelessness, as well as those whose lives are under threat because of it. It is called by many one of the “great religions of the world”. This is false, it is one of the greatest deceptions to be perpetrated upon this world. While this deception goes on, the threat of heinous acts, such a 9/11, will continue. The politicians tell us this is not a “religious” struggle. This, too, is false. The heart of the conflict is a false religion - Islam, a false god - Allah, a false bible – the Koran, a false prophet – Mohammed, and the numerous false teachers that enslave much of the world’s population with false teachings and false hopes based completely on a works based system of salvation. Islam bears no resemblance to the religion of Christ or His finished work. Christ came that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. Islam takes lives, enslaves them, kills them, and is one of the greatest inroads of Satan into our world today. Only Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Be not deceived.
Grace & Peace

"We deny the charge as unjust made by the Arminians against the wise and good Ruler of the universe. God did elect His people before the foundation of the world, long before any of them had a being, and those not elected were left out, and God is not unjust. It is blasphemy to charge a God of purity and justice with being unjust. It is a wonder that He allows His depraved creatures to live who utter such vile epithets in denouncing Him while they pretend to worship Him." - Elder John R. Daily
"A philosopher is someone who studies more and more about less and less until he finally knows everything about nothing." - Elder Sonny Pyles
The parting words of the Apostle Paul to the elders at Ephesus, Acts 20:28-30, may they be heard all the more in our own perilous day. "Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them."
The Primitive Monitor--May 1906
IF I WERE GOING TO PREACH HERESY
The above may seem like a strange thing, but strange as it is other people
in whom the Baptists have had confidence have left the "old paths" and have
followed after "strange gods." I was thinking if I should do as others have
done I would,
First. Proclaim far and near that I am an "Old Baptist," and would get much
hurt if any should even think I was departing. I would ransack all the
writings of Baptists from away back and find something I could misconstrue
to make it sound like what I was saying. If that would not be enough I would
tell the people I had prayed to the Lord and would declare he had revealed
it to me.
Second. I would profess fellowship for everything the Baptists preached. I
would give everybody my hand on everything they preached and say aloud,
"Amen," when other preachers preached.
Third. I would say, "Let us have no war, and at the same time preach my new
doctrine. I would insist that war among our people would be ruin to us, and
say that we were already in a state of anarchy in many places. I would cry,
"Peace, peace," and all the time drag in trouble, trouble.
Fourth. I would say this is all preacher jealousy. I would, in my feigned
humility, declare I wished no one harm, but that for some reason the old
preachers were all trying to kill me.
I have other reasons to suggest to myself or any others who feel that it is
their duty to leave the principles of truth without leaving the church in
one jump. But I do not want to leave at present and so will not dream any
more just now.
The suggestions above are self-contradictory, of course, but the faith
revealed to the saints and the doctrines of men are contradictory. When any
prefer to leave let them leave by direct line. They will find ears to listen
to their tale of woe. If any are "blinded" by the perversions of truth may
God deliver them from the snares. If any hunger for truth may God bring them
to us and may the old gospel sound sweeter and sweeter to them.
The Lord bless our faithful, toiling, sacrificing people to go on in the
service as of old and keep us all from errors of every kind.
George A Bretz
“Avoid them.” Where men cause divisions in their own country where they live, let us not import them to carry out their designs with us. “Receive him not into your house nor bid him God speed.” I am sure this is a safe rule. Where men sow discord at home we may expect them to do so abroad. If we expect to have the love and confidence of Primitive Baptist let us stand up for their principles, and while others are deserting them, let us stand more firmly for them. Where men desert them, or seek to associate with them that do, they will not receive the cordial support of Primitive Baptists. I know our people are few, and generally of the lowest walks of life, but I prize their fellowship their confidence and esteem. I want to be understood by them. I love the doctrine of sovereign grace. I love our primitive methods. I have no fellowship for a progressive spirit, nor for them that urge it upon our people. I want to be plain and outspoken, and devote my remaining energies to the maintenance of Primitive Baptists. -- from Church Divisions by J.H. Oliphant
Old Line Primitive Baptists unequivocally believe in the eternal salvation of God's elect in Heaven and in the timely salvation of God's elect in this life. The gospel of Jesus Christ tells us how he secured the first and makes the second possible for God's people. If you are interested understanding the difference between these salvations please read the next article.
