Indeed, that essentially is what Masters is doing.

“For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him. For I suppose I was not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles. “ (2 Corinthians 11:2-5)

The church doesn’t teach the truth about why Christ died on the cross.”(Tape 1, “The Cross of Christ,”)

“Christ gave us the perfect example by suffering the physical stress without resenting torment—earning life eternal.” (Secret of Life, p. 74.)

If a charismatic Christian does not smoke or drink, it is only because he does not need to, being high on what he thinks of as his Jesus. (No One Has to Die, p. 75)

It is the wordless Truth Who will save you from the evil you see. ( How to Control Your Emotions, p.98)

The whole process of growing is not from words but from realizing and then you can throw your Bible in the garbage can and there’s no sin in that. (tape, “The Mystery of Golgotha”)

Words should never teach you. (How to Control Your Emotions, p. 305)

Masters asserts that the death of Christ was literally “a divine comedy or trap or trick,” “to cause the devil to transgress the law” by killing a man he didn’t legally own (Jesus). (http://www.theworldviewcenter.org/encyclopedia_foundationforhumanunderstanding.html)

"The whole process of growing is not from words but from realizing..."

That would depend on whose words we're talking about...

Isaiah 55:11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart

Ephesians 5:26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word

Maybe I'm misunderstanding Master's meaning here but you have to wonder at a statement such as "...and then you can throw your Bible in the garbage can and there’s no sin in that". Especially considering he has (presumably)a large audience which no doubt contains many who don't 'get it' like he thinks he does.

Ephesians 6:17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God

I don't care who you are,you will not win any real battles if you throw your ONLY weapon in the bin!
