( SIZE 5)Is the teaching of Pastor John Hagee, the senior Pastor of Cornerstone Church in San Antonio, Texas, faithful to the Scriptures (Part 1)? John Hagee is a Dispensational Premillennialist. I have shown in a number of posts that Dispensational Premillennialism is a false doctrine. In his book, In Defense of Israel, he writes concerning Jesus on the Emmaus road encounter with two of his disciples: He refused to be their Messiah, choosing instead to be the Savior of the world (Front Line (A Strang Company), Lake Mary, FL; 2007), p. 143. There is nothing further from the truth than Pastor Hagee’s statement. In fact, it is blasphemous. Jesus accepted their invitation to stay with them. He broke bread with them. In so doing , he revealed to them that he was their Messiah, the Savior of the world. We read: When he was at the table with them, he took bread, gave thanks, broke it and began to give it to them. Then their eyes were opened and they recognized him, and he disappeared from their sight (Luke 24: 30-31, NIV). (Please read John 3: 16-18). The two disciples were not despondent when Jesus disappeared. What did they do? They got up and returned at once to Jerusalem. There they found the Eleven and those with them, assembled together and saying, ‘It is true! The Lord has risen and has appeared to Simon’ (Luke 24: 33-34, NIV). The resurrection of Jesus was sufficient proof to his disciples that he was indeed their Messiah and Savior of the world. PLEASE READ AND STUDY YOUR BIBLE. DO NOT BE LED ASTRAY BY FALSE TEACHERS. SCRIPTURAL CONCLUSION The teaching of Dispensational Premillennialists is not faithful to the Scriptures. The following individuals and denominations teach Dispensational Premillennialism and are therefore false teachers. Tim LaHaye (Left Behind Series) Marvin Rosenthal (The Pre-Wrath Rapture of the Church) David Jeremiah (Turning Point Ministry) Hal Lindsey (The Late Great Planet Earth) John F. Walvoord (The Rapture Question) J. Dwight Pentecost (Things To Come) Jack Van Impe John Hagee H. H. Barber (Faith To Live By) The Southern Baptist Churches (U.S.A.) The Pentecostal Assemblies of Canada Pentecostal Churches worldwide Many other denominational churches and numerous Bible Colleges around the world (There are a few exceptions where pastors have abandoned their denominational beliefs and allowed the authority of Scripture to be their guide). PLEASE VISIT MY VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE. 777JEM333 A BOOK REVIEW by Reverend James E. Shaw (D.D.) (TITLE: THE GLORIOUS APPEARING- ISBN - 155306805X - AVAILABLE ON ALL AMAZON WEBSITES AND MANY OTHERS) With all the confusion within Christianity relative to the rapture and the millennium it is refreshing to see an evangelical pastor who pointedly states: We accept the theory that is consistent with the Word of God. I emphasize the word consistent. Too many theories have been advanced which are based on selected passages from Scripture.This is poor hermeneutics. The Rev. Mahabir sifts concisely through the many teachings and on the basis of the entire word of God refutes the incorrect ones (much as the biblical scholars of the Reformation era). He pointedly comes down on the eschatological truths of Scripture which the vast majority of Christendom espoused until the 19th century. This little book is substantive in urging those caught up in the Left Behind series, premillennialism, postmillennialism and dispensationalism to evaluate their position. While my Lutheran understanding of Scripture would lead to some disagreements on a few comments, the principal focus of the book which leads to affirming the historic and biblical view of amillennialism is irrevocably proved. It's a good book to have in your library. Reverend James E. Shaw (D.D) Georgetown, Texas {SIZE 5}
