So what do you think of the way Arnold Murray is always criticizing other
people? Generally, I find that his students are perfectly willing to
justify Arnold Murray's very negative commentaries against other
Christians. I think that is hypocrisy, what is your opinion?
You may not see anything wrong with Arnold Murray's teaching, and I'm
not going to speculate about that because I do not know you. But
I do see many things wrong with it and since I was once a student
of the Chapel I feel obligated to speak up. Moreover the bible calls us
to "mark" false teachers.
I do not think it is a sin for him to go around saying that everyone who
teaches the rapture is deceived, and neither is it a sin for me to say
that anyone who believes in the serpent seed is deceived.
Romans 16:17 Now I beseech you, brethren, MARK THEM which cause
divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned;
and avoid them.
18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own
belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the
simple.
You don't have a problem with his teachings As far as I am concerned,
that is YOUR problem. I do not expect you to bow to my judgments, so do
not expect me to bow to yours. But I have the right to speak up and
anyone who reads my page has the right to decide for themselves.
Your letter is the most common kind of letter I receive. The guy puts
himself out in the public eye and he sticks his face on TV all over the
nation and he does not want to be criticized so he teaches people that
it is wrong to be critical of "other ministries" even though that is
his BREAD and BUTTER. He loves to be critical of other Christians, he
mocks them and calls them names, I don't approve of the name-calling
but I do not see anything wrong with defending what you believe to be
the truth by attacking error.
Arnold Murray does not listen to rebuke, so he is subject to public
censure. No one has to listen to me, and plenty do not. I do not
regard Arnold Murray as a Christian brother, our versions of
Christian teaching and faith are so different so as to make the
differences irreconcilable.
Sincerely,
