Dear Fellow Believers,
If God is not responsible for EVERYTHING in His universe (including evil), then there must be some degree to which He is IR-responsible. And who wants to teach on "The Irresponsibility of God"? To be consistent, every single person who believes in human free will or denies the truth that God created evil (Isaiah 45:7) should be heralding the irresponsibility of God from the rooftops. But they don't. Why? Because they are all raging hypocrites.
Only as we realize that 1) evil is not the same as sin, and 2) evil is eventually banished from the universe, can we accept God's own admission concerning evil.
Twenty-three years ago this summer, five other believers and myself bought time on the largest Christian radio station in Cleveland, OH, in order to herald this and other truths. It was a bold move. I was sure that the station would revoke our contract as soon as we began unveiling our "hardcore" teachings, but it didn't. Rather, after our five-week run, the station managers eliminated forever the very platform ("Summer Nights") that allowed area "churches" to discuss their ministries. The
station never wanted to see us again.
In truth, this is what most churches did on this station: talk about their ministries. "Tell the people about our bus outreach, Pastor Dave." We blew the place up by talking about God and Jesus Christ instead. Apparently, no one had ever done that.
My friend and yours, Rodney Paris, has digitized these messages that were originally recorded on cassette tapes so that you can hear the truths that went across the Cleveland airwaves twenty-three years ago. The beautiful thing about truth is that it never ages.
Grace and peace to you all,
Martin
