‘Fatal Character Error’
When Scott Johnson calls people nasty names he does not reflex the character is Jesus Christ and does not follow his teachings. (John 13:35), (Col 3:1-11), (Rom 8:29), (Gal 4:19)
When Scott Johnson calls Pastor Joel Olson, ‘Smilly Joel’ or Someone who studies the Old Testament as ‘Hebrew Roots Guy’ or Melissa Scott as ‘Simple Scott’ or uses racial epitaphs to refer to President Obama and others is not reflecting the Character of Jesus Christ. (1 Peter 2:9, 21-24), (Matt 12:33-37), (Paslm 5:9), (Rom 3: 13-14,17-18), (James 3:9-12), (Rom 1:29-32), (Gal 5:22-23), (Eph 4:17)
Perhaps Scott was really not a born again Christian or Saved. (Rom 12:2), (John 3:1-21), (2 Cor 5:17) Since he calls everybody names who disagrees with him. (Matt 7:16-20) Scott doesn’t act like the Bereans and checks any Bible Truth Line by Line to see if is true. (Acts 17:11), (Isa 28:10) Seems like Scott Johnson really doesn’t know Jesus Christ or how to be a real Christian or ‘Chist like.’. (Matt 7:21-23), (Matt 23:15, 25-28), (James 2:14-24), (James 1:22-24), (1 Cor 6:17)
‘Fatal Character Error’
Mr. Hung:
Wow! Sounds like you really have me figured out but just let me know what you think about Jesus Christ calling the Scribes & Phar.:
Mat 23:13 But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!
Mat 23:16 Woe unto you, [ye] blind guides,
Mat 23:19 [Ye] fools and blind:
Mat 23:24 [Ye] blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel.
Mat 23:27 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchers, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead [men's] bones, and of all uncleanness.
Mat 23:33 [Ye] serpents, [ye] generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
By the way you judge me it sounds like you might have to accuse Jesus Christ himself of: “not reflecting the Character of Jesus Christ.” What about all the times Paul marked people by name like Alexander the Coppersmith, Demas, the Creatians etc. We are commanded to mark apostates in Romans 16: 17 & 18 and so many others places. But because the modern day church does not obey this command from the Word of God the Church is in the pathetic leavened state that it is currently in. People like you sir are the very reason the church has let wolves in sheep’s clothing, hirelings, ministers of Satan, servants of corruption into the pulpit & teaching positions across the world. You are also the very one who is way out of line in the way you have approached me:
Gal 6:1 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, yea which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.
I have never called Melissa Scott (who ever that is) “Simple Scott”. I have never used a racial epitaph regarding Obama.
Also this is a really blanket unsubstained statement: “Since he calls everybody names who disagrees with him.” You are falsely accusing me on so many levels: Luke 3:14 “..neither accuse [any] falsely”
Also this one is a real doozy: “Scott doesn’t act like the Bereans and checks any Bible Truth Line by Line to see if is true.”
Whereas I always intermingle Scripture with all my studies to confirm the very subjects I am presenting.
If I do a study on a false minister I back it up with documentation and attach it in a PDF format with every teaching. To get back to your true motives for writing this tirade against me it sounds like I have stepped on your toes because you actually hold people like Joel Osteen and Obama in high regard and to this I truly pity you as if you are this deluded you are already ripe to embrace the “Strong Delusion” of 2 Thes. 2 that God himself will and is sending.
Proverbs 17:15: “He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD.”
Isaiah 5:20: “Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil…”
People like you are the quintessential essence of why the Lord has convicted me to start & maintain this ministry.
Since you like throwing Scriptures out what do you do with the ones below:
Romans 16: 17&18: “Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. 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.”
II Timothy 4:14-15: Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil: the Lord reward him according to his works: Of whom be thou ware also; for he hath greatly withstood our words.
II Timothy 4:10: “For Demas hath forsaken me, having loved this present world…”
Titus 1:9-14: “Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers. For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision: Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre’s sake. One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies. This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith; “Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth.”
Titus 3:10: “A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject;”
Galatains 1:6-10: “I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed. For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.”
I Timothy 4:1&2: “Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron…”
Colosians 2:8: “Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.”
Ezekiel 22:25: “There is a conspiracy of her prophets in the midst thereof, like a roaring lion ravening the prey; they have devoured souls; they have taken the treasure and precious things; they have made her many widows in the midst thereof.
Deuteronomy 13:1-3,5: ¶ If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and giveth thee a sign or a wonder, And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them; Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams: for the LORD your God proveth you, to know whether ye love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul…And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death; because he hath spoken to turn you away from the LORD your God.”Deuteronomy 18:20-23: “But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die. And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the word which the LORD hath not spoken? When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.”
Matthew 24:23-24: “Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.”
Ezekiel 33:6: “But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman’s hand.”
Jude 3&4: “Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.”
Ephesians 5:11-16: “And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret. (Comment: In other words we don’t need to get into the gory details of their sin done “in secret” but at the same time we are commanded in the previous and following verses to “reprove” and “manifest” their wicked actions. See the definition below of “reprove” & “manifest”.) But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. (Comment: “Light” always overcomes and exposes darkness) Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light. See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.”
The 1828 Noah Webster Dictionary defines:
Reprove: To blame, to convince of a fault, or to make it manifest, to excite a sense of guilt.
Manifest: Plain, open, clearly visible to the eye or obvious to the understanding; apparent; not obscure or difficult to be seen or understood.
Circumspectly: Cautiously; with watchfulness every way; with attention to guard against surprise or danger.
II Corinthians 2:11: “Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.”
Psalm 94:16&20: “Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?…Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, which frameth mischief by a law?”
Matthew 7:15: “Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.”
Titus 1:15b-16: “…unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled. They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.
II Corinthians 11:13-15: For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
II Peter 2:17-19: “These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever. For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error. While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage.”
Jeremiah 5:26-31: “For among my people are found wicked men: they lay wait, as he that setteth snares; they set a trap, they catch men. As a cage is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit: therefore they are become great, and waxen rich. They are waxen fat, they shine: yea, they overpass the deeds of the wicked: they judge not the cause, the cause of the fatherless, yet they prosper; and the right of the needy do they not judge. Shall I not visit for these things? saith the LORD: shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this? A wonderful and horrible thing is committed in the land; The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means; and my people love to have it so: and what will ye do in the end thereof?”
II Timothy 4:3-4: “I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.”
Mark 13:22: “For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.
I Chronicles 12:32: “And of the children of Issachar, which were men that had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do; the heads of them were two hundred; and all their brethren were at their commandment.”
Acts 20:31: “Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.”
I Corinthians 16:13: “Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.”
I Thessalonians 5:6: “Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.”
II Timothy 4:5: “But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.”
Jeremiah 48:10: “Cursed be he that doeth the work of the LORD deceitfully…”
Matthew 16:11-12: “How is it that ye do not understand that I spake it not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees? Then understood they how that he bade them not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.”
Revelation 3:13-22: “He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.”
Scott Johnson
Hey V Hung. Why are you qoting from an ESV?
Lets look at the Bible (KJV) to see if you are following Jesus Christ of the Bible or “another Jesus”, and the consequences for doing so.
Didnt Jesus Christ call the scribes and Pharisees serpents and vipers?
Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
Matthew 23:33
Further, it is written
When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:
And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth [his] sheep from the goats: .
And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
Matthew 25:31-34
V Yung, are you a goat?
Does Joel Osteen smile all the time? Yes. So is it a lie to call him smiley? No.
So whats your point V Yung?
V Yung, you’ve obviously not listened. (Well maybe you have listened but you have certainly not heard) Scotts semons on the Hebrew roots movement. Clearly showing that it is not based solely on the Old Testament but rather on the traditions of men and other extra unbiblical sources.
Why were you not able to hear this when you listened to the sermons?
For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with [their] eyes, and hear with [their] ears, and understand with [their] heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
Acts 28:27
Or did you even listen to them?
He that answereth a matter before he heareth [it], it [is] folly and shame unto him.
Proverbs 18:13
V Yung. Are you simple?
The simple believeth every word: but the prudent [man] looketh well to his going.
Proverbs 14:15
A prudent [man] foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.
Proverbs 22:3
I see Scott warning people about the evil which is coming. I dont see you doing anything but showing your ignorance.
Maybe you have got a plan. So what do you suggest V Yung? Whats your doctrine? Do you do anything for the edifying of the Body of Christ?
Or is it the case that you are spiritually blind?
And if that is the case what does the Bible say about this
[Ye] blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel.
Matthew 23:24
And he spake a parable unto them, Can the blind lead the blind? shall they not both fall into the ditch?
Luke 6:39
Ill be honest with you. When I first read your comments I didnt know what “epitaph” meant. Its not a word I have ever heard before. Let alone used, so I looked it up on the internet and heres what I found
EP’ITAPH, n. [Gr. a sepulcher.]
1. An inscription on a monument, in honor or memory of the dead.
The epitaphs of the present day are crammed with fulsome compliments never merited.
Can you look forward to the honor of a decorated coffin, a splendid funeral, a towering monument–it may be a lying epitaph.
2. An eulogy, in prose or verse, composed without any intent to be engraven on a monument, as that on Alexander:
“Sufficit huic tumulus, cui non sufficeret orbis.”
(source http://1828.sorabji.com/1828/words/e/epitaph.html)
So I think I understand what an epitaph is now. But what exactly are “racial epitaphs refering to President Obama”? Just give me an example.
And I know you dont like name calling, but when your posting on this website just refer to President Obama as Barry. It might seem weird but do some research and Lord willing you will understand why.
V Yung. Are you a Christian? Is Jesus Christ your Lord and Saviour? Have you admitted that you are a sinner that deserves death and hell? And that only Jesus Christ can save you from this fate? That through his death, burial and resurrection. His finished work on the cross where he shed his blood to pay the price for your sins, that if you put your faith in him, you may have eternal life now and everlasting.
If you are not, then I pray that you will confess these things now, put your faith in Jesus and get saved.
But if you believe you are already a Christian, then you are deceived. And this is serious
Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
1 Timothy 4:1-2
Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them;
Deuteronomy 11:16
Because not only have you departed from the faith, but you are serving other gods. Namely Satan.
And right now you are cursed.
I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
As we said before, so say I now again, If any [man] preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.
Galatians 1:6-10
So you need to repent and be obedient to the word of God
And this will involve the following
Firstly, sort yourself out.
And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam [is] in thine own eye?
Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye.
Matthew 7:3-5
Then you will need to learn what the Bible says, and not what you think it says
Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
1 Timothy 2:15
And then you can start to live according to the Word of God and not as a hypocrite
Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, [then] are ye my disciples indeed;
And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
John 8:31-32
For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.
Matthew 12:50
Then you will be in a position to rebuke and reprove and do Gods work
Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.
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.
Romans 16:17-18
For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision:
Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre’s sake.
One of themselves, [even] a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians [are] alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.
This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith;
Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth.
Unto the pure all things [are] pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving [is] nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled.
They profess that they know God; but in works they deny [him], being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.
Titus 1:10-16
V Hung,
I have listened to almost every teaching Dr. Scott has ever done and he is not in the wrong! Jesus Christ rebuked the pharisees and sadducees! Therefore are you calling Jesus Christ unsaved? Maybe your just trying to start your own little occult just like SMILEY JOEL OLSEN! Joel Olsen is NOT a man of God he is a wolf in sheeps clothing! Dr. Scott Johnson is just doing his job as a born again saved Christian. You saying he is not a Christian is speaking on behalf of his part! What happened to not judging? It seems as though he can’t judge anyone but you can judge him and say he’s not saved… YOUR WRONG! Instead of judging him, why don’t you start by judging yourself. Maybe if you read your Bible (MR. DELUSIONAL) you would see your only supposed to not judge your brothers if you have a beam in your own eye and a speck in your brothers and you certainly have a beam!
Sincerely,
Sara
It’s sad that anything goes in todays society. If you warn of the wolves (who want to take your very soul to hell) in todays churches you are considered a hateful non-christian. They say you are not to judge or call out wrong. That is why the church is in the shape it is in today. Complacent!!!
Then you have the nerve to imply he is not born again because he is speaking boldly in the Lord. Joel Osteen has made so much money off the church that he could feed all of Africa for the rest of his life and then some with what he has already made. He chooses to live a life of greed and encourages that in others. Calling out false doctrine is not evil. If more churches were marking those who do evil we’d have better churches.
I would like to comment on the fatal character Error comment made above – Im just going to go through the list of people you mentioned – Joel Osteen is a wolf in sheep clothing, he has been on many interviews where he claims there is more than one way to Jesus, he does not preach on sin or repentance and leading millions away from heaven – with all due respect to the President of the United States but Im going to be honest with you, I belive the Lord Jesus Christ put Obama in his position as a judgement to this nation – a nation that has turned from the Lord Jesus Christ and taken HIM out of everything so HE placed a evil ruler over us, he supports and rallys on abortions and homosexuality which is an ABOMINATION to our God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. I have heard numerous times WATCHMAN Scott Johnson telling that he prays for Obama like all of us are called to do that follow Christ Jesus – that does not mean we agree with his beliefs or his actions whatsoever, we do as instructed by the Lord in hopes he will be saved.
I recall in the Bible where Jesus called the Pharisees and Saducees a BROOD OF VIPERS and called people stiff necked people because they would not listen – I call false prophets WOLVES IN SHEEP CLOTHING because that is what they are, its not hateful, its TRUTHFUL – the bible says to reprove the workers of evil -
Last but not least as I stand here before the Lord Jesus Christ right now today, I know within my spirit and heart that Scott Johnson has a personal relationship with our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and abides by his word and is truly born again and saved. Your spirit should bear witness to that and if not – check yourself, like Paul said check yourself daily to make sure you are in the faith.
I see it offends alot of peoples FLESH by hearing the truth.
Let him who has ears to hear what the Spirit is saying to the church in this hour -
We love you Scott and you keep pressing forward and perservering with what the Lord Jesus Christ shows you and leads you to warn us all about -
God bless you
Michelle
consider the character of Jesus in “Matthew chapter 23″
Mr. V Hung … the bible tell us in 1st john 4:1 to “try the spirits whether they are of God”… it go’s on further to say in vs. 5 to say “they are of the world there for speak they of the world and the world heareth them”
let me ask you a question, why do you sound just like the world, and yet seem to think you are so Christ like ?
Job 26:4 To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?
listen sir, the anti christ has enough followers already, why don’t you stop singing the song of fools and hear the rebuke of the wise (ecc 7:5)
look up Titus 1:9-13, and see how this fits in with your definition of Christ likeness
P.S. for the bible believers out there…. D.L. moody once said “be sure that if the world has nothing to say against you that God has nothing to say for you” when the grass burns the snake slither let our preaching set a fire the chaff round about use, and let the light of Jesus Christ continue to convict the darkness that flees from the truth…..
Brother Matt
psalms 138:4-5
I love you Dr. Scott!
“V Hung” — I must absolutely disagree with your assessment. Just because you think that you have certain verses to “support” your position, it doesn’t make you right and Dr. Scott wrong. The truth is, ultimately, the truth. Whether it makes you uncomfortable, or whether you don’t like it, doesn’t change the fact that it remains the truth.
I am guessing that you disagree with various positions that he takes. But if he backs it up with Scripture, then he is right and you are wrong.
Sorry.
But it is great for all of us to wrestle with these issues and penetrate through this cloud of deception in which we all live. So I pray that as you wrestle with Truth, our Lord Jesus will reveal to you what is really true and what is false.
