He’s getting cannier about knowing that people are going to fact check him. Notice that he makes a point of mentioning that this is “that this is only his opinion” and will be on YouTube.
But then he goes on to mocks the ‘freshman theologians’ who are going to disagree with them and says they haven’t ‘studied it as much as he has.’ He’s claiming it without claiming it to leave himself wiggle room. It’s subtle but it’s there.
I suspect that a lot of those skulls full of mush are going to leave that room telling it as fact because it’s what their preacher believes.
Since we’re in the season, this weeks’ FWOTW was selected for having one of the most over-the-top anti-Halloween pages that I could find.
Not content to merely call this Satan’s holiday, this author makes the case that Halloween actually hails back to Baal Worship, cannibalism, incest, and (worst of all!) Roman Catholics.
Of all the ways to celebrate a fundamentalist church’s 70th anniversary, I just wouldn’t have foreseen an entry for “Get a John Wayne impersonator” as being anywhere on the list.
One can only assume that Texas fundamentalists are a breed unto themselves.
If you’ve ever heard a preacher multiply the number of cubits in Noah’s Ark by the width of the wilderness tabernacle and then add the numeric equivalent of the Hebrew letters for the word “potshard” to come up with proof positive that there will be a pre-tribulation rapture…you might be a fundamentalist.
Admittedly the above example is a bit extreme. Therefore, in the interests of accuracy, please consider this real life example that I am not making up from the website of the good folks at Gethsemane Anabaptist Church.
Number 9
Fruit of the Spirit. (Galatians 5:22).
Galatians is the ninth book in the New Testament. It is spelled with nine letters.
Holy Bible is spelled with nine letters, as in King James.
Isaiah 9:6 promised fruit from God.
1611 adds up to nine.

A silly blog dedicated to Independent Fundamental Baptists, their standards, their beliefs, and their craziness.
