I cannot believe his drivel. This is Marxism meets Christianity. I'll let others rebut this moron.

The rich and powerful assassinated Jesus for speaking out.

It's fairly obvious the author hasn't studied much Bible doctrine or theology. Jesus Christ went to the Cross in strict obedience to the will of the Father. All the injustice and hysterics by the crowds and those taunting Christ were merely efforts to distract our Lord from remaining in fellowship with God the Father through God the Holy Spirit.

Salvation is NOT morality, nor is or has any person of the human race ever been or will be saved by morality. Salvation is by faith ALONE in Christ ALONE.

Once one has eternal life, a regenerated human spirit and remains in fellowship with God through faith in Christ, morality happens by us following the commandments and our charity from our position of faith, not by legalism or making God a debtor.

The author might want to bone up on some good Baptist doctrines which came from the Reformed camp regarding the death of Christ on the Cross and who actually determined when his death would occur.

Rich people who fail in matters of generosity are going to hell.

Huh?

All people, rich and poor, will choose between God's Kingdom and Hell based upon one thing - whether or not they accepted Christ's offer of Salvation. That's it! Anyone that claims to be a pastor and preaches anything other than that fact is not worth listening. More than that, he's a danger to listen to. Wolf in sheep's clothing.
