Is There Such a Creature as a 'Carnal Christian'? (short - self-study - no audio or commentary)

Welcome to another one of my sermon/PowerPoint Presentations, with this one being a 'pause and study' version. By looking at a rightly divided King James 1611 Bible with Paul being our ONLY apostle, we will see how there is no such creature as a carnal Christian, no matter what your pastor or best selling author/pastor/religious personality tries to teach you with his guilt-trip ridden sermons and his profane and vain babblings from those modern bible versions today.

Within this presentation, I will show you another example of profane and vain babblings from today’s evil, seducing, deceived and deceiving pastors, who with their ‘good words and fair speeches’ about ‘another Jesus’ have truly robbed this world of the inspired and preserved words of God that teach the goodness of God as well as a true salvation with the risen, living and Holy Lord Jesus Christ.

I will show you, with scriptures, there is no such thing as a ‘Carnal Christian!’ People are either Carnal (lost) or Christian (quickened /saved), but there can be no such thing as a carnal Christian.

Based on today’s church doctrines from the modern bibles, most Christians today are in name only and are probably still lost because they are following a false gospel! Most people who call themselves ‘sincere’ religious Christians today are taught to think they must live a clean, pastorally obedient and ‘sinningless’ life in order to be ‘blessed’ by God along with supposed answer to prayer all the while fearing the punishment and severity of God needing those ‘occasional confessions of their sins’ that they think are still needed (after every sermon during the invitation) to stay in the grace and fellowship with God.

But honestly, they do not understand that no matter how special their pastor is to them and how skilled he sounds, there is no way they can still live good / holy enough to be ‘blessed by God’ in a materialistic way!” Do they think that even though Romans 3:23 says, “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God,” that now that they ‘have Jesus’ and have been ‘born again,’ that they can suddenly live that holy life ‘good’ enough to be blessed by God? Well, yes they do, actually!

However, by their hatred and rejection of the written word of truth, the ‘that which is perfect’ King James Bible along with Paul as their only apostle, they have completely tossed out their spiritual mirror and the sword of the Spirit!

Paul teaches us that our blessings today are spiritual only, not physical. See Ephesians 1:3.

These people think they are successfully living the religious ‘Christian’ life (as found in the Gospels and Tribulation books) because they believe they now have Jesus as their (magic) Saviour who indwells in them to give them the power to live a holy and victorious life on a daily basis, thus also giving them right to judge other Christians in their daily lives. These same "God is love" people also are judgmentally mean and critical people who couldn’t tell you the difference between ‘dead in sin’ and ‘dead to sin’ as well as what it means to be ‘dead to the law.’

In other words, people today hang their trust in their pastor’s worldly educated spoken word, while completely rejecting the written Word of God, the gospel of their salvation, even when they disagree with their pastor’s words. According to the KJB, these people are always hearing profane and vain babblings from over 300 bible versions (along with their feelings that they believe that the Holy Spirit is ‘talking’ to them in their inner self) which also is the only spoken words they can find that will scratch their itching ears - because their pastor and their own feelings are massively wise in their own educationally worldly ways and religiously trained deception, deceiving others as well as themselves.

Today’s pastor, music and media leaders, author, publisher, etc. has taught them to reject the one inspired and preserved set of written words in a KJB which, unfortunately for them, are the best words that anyone could learn because they would teach them the goodness of God and would lead them to repentance through growing and mature Christian manner of life. They also learn that while those things in which they ‘failed in their daily life’ will burn up in the judgment seat of Christ; there is no severity of God in this dispensation. (It will be returning soon, however!)

So with that said, let me now explain to you how there is no such thing as a carnal Christian. If you give this study an honest and scriptural appraisal, you will have to admit that your pastor is simply wrong – again.
