The Lordship Salvation Cult At Pensacola Christian College

There is a deadly misunderstanding being preaching today from nearly every pulpit concerning what it means to "repent" to get to Heaven. Whereas the biblical meaning of repent is a simple "change of mind" unto the Gospel itself, most religious seminaries and churches today have adopted the falsehood that repentance means to turn away from your sinning. This damnable heresy perverts God's simple plan of salvation, preventing lost sinners from being born again, which is by faith alone in Christ.

Although this heresy of having to turn from your sinful bad habits to be saved exists in various forms, the basic gist is always the same, which is that faith is not enough to get to Heaven; you are also required to be willing to forsake a lifestyle of sinning, to give up your past sinful ways to be saved. Although this may sound reasonable to the carnal human mind, it is 100% unbiblical. The Bible teaches that Christ came into the world to die on a cross to pay for our sins. Jesus paid a debt that He did not owe, because we owed a debt that we could not pay. Christ bore the total weight of our sins on the cross so that we wouldn't have to, by burning in the fires of Hell for eternity which we all deserve.

The very idea that a sinner is required by God to turn away from their sinful bad habits as a requirement to receive God's free gift of forgiveness of sins and eternal life is salvation by works. That is not how God's plan of salvation works. The truth is that you come to God just as you are (as an ungodly sinner), and God saves you by faith alone in His only begotten Son of God, Jesus, the Christ.

Then God seals and indwells you with the gift of His indwelling Holy Spirit, and the Spirit begins to work to change you with the inspired Word of God. John 17;17 says we are sanctified with the truth of God's Word. It is Jesus Christ Himself who lives through the believer (Galatians 2;20), and not self reformation that changes a believer. These wicked preachers today who falsely say that you must turn from your sins to be saved are preaching another gospel of partial faith in Christ plus works. They are placing the burden of change upon the sinner's shoulder as a prerequisite to get to Heaven, instead of allowing God to do all the saving and then for the Holy Spirit to change that believer's life. The true Gospel always points you to CHRIST; a false gospel always points to YOU.

Salvation is not a reward for the righteous, it is a gift for the guilty. Salvation is not doing your best, it is having Christ's best put to your account through receiving Him by faith. Turning away from sinful ways would be a work. Faith puts all of the merit where it belongs, on the object of our faith, Jesus and His work.

The works-based heresy that I have just explained to you is commonly referred to as "Lordship Salvation," which is rooted in the damnable false teachings of John Calvin (1509-1564). That is, Calvinism! The video you are about to watch exposes Pensacola Christian College (PCC) who preach the false doctrine I just mentioned, as you will hear for yourself in the presentation. RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS! God knows that I love the people at PCC, and I don't hate any living soul. Having said that, I love God and truth more, as the Bible commands all of us to do. Nothing in our life should take priority over our love for God and His truth in the Holy Bible. I love PCC enough to rebuke them for preaching lies! I love you enough dear reader to warn you about PCC, and any other false prophets who corrupt the simplicity that is in Christ. A counterfeit gospel cannot produce the new birth that is in Christ. The only way to be saved is by wholly leaning on Jesus' precious name. Faith is the only righteous thing that I can do.

Here is a helpful quote from one of my favorite preachers, Pastor Ralph Yankee Arnold, in which he defines "Lordship Salvation" for us:

“Lordship Salvation is the unsupportable and unbiblical belief that the performance of good works, the promise of good works, or the evidence of good works, must accompany faith in Christ to establish or provide evidence that such faith has resulted in eternal life.” —Pastor Ralph Yankee Arnold, “Jesus Versus John MacArthur”

Yes, amen, that is correct! Tragically PCC's Campus Church officially teaches in their Foundation's Class, and I quote: "Repentance is a change of mind resulting in a change of behavior." That is Lordship Salvation! Behavior modification has absolutely nothing to do with receiving God's FREE GIFT of eternal life. You simple TAKE a gift, without any stipulations or obligations, if it is truly a "gift." God said what He meant, and He meant what He said.

To God be the glory. Thank you for reading this, and I hope you will watch this one hour presentation. My only goal is to preach the truth. Like the Apostle Paul, "I am set for the defence of the Gospel" (Philippians 1:17b). And always remember dear friend, people just want to be loved.
