Neo-evangelicals are God's enemies, because they are using, defending, and promoting corruptible word from the Alexandrian Bible revisions. We fundamentalists only use the incorruptible Words of God, which have been preserved in the inspired King James Bible.

And their effort is to destroy Hyles-Anderson College! Over my dead body...” —Dr. Jack Hyles, a quote from the May 14, 1989 sermon, “Weathering The Storm!”

The Virtue Of Not Getting Too Close To People...
“All across America businessmen are destroying churches!” —Dr. Jack Hyles, a quote from the classic MP3 sermon, “I Find No Fault In This Man!”
Here is some great wisdom from the man of God:
“I love this man right here [Johnny Colsten]. I've been working with him for 32 years. I don't know him very well. I don't want to know him any better. Elaine tells me I'd be disappointed (laughter). I don't want to know him any better. We've never played golf together. We've never bowled together, played tennis together; We've worked together! But I don't want to know him any better. You say, 'Brother Hyles, what are you saying?' I'm saying, I know he has warts. I know he has weaknesses. But I'm convinced that, as people go, he is one of the best men that I know.” —Dr. Jack Hyles, a quote from the classic MP3 sermon, “I Find No Fault In This Man!”
If you're a critic, don't get too close to people, because we all have faults! If you're a critic, don't scrutinize your pastor, because he is imperfect. If you are a critic, don't scrutinize your church, because you'll find plenty of faults. If you are a critic, don't get too close to your neighbour, because nobody is perfect. If you are a critic, don't get too close to others, because you'll destroy them! We are all imperfect people! If you're a critic, you'll find fault with the preacher! If you are a critic, you'll find fault in everybody! Even the best churches cannot withstand the scrutiny of a critic! But even the worst critics will never find fault in Jesus Christ our Savior. They may lie about Jesus to defame His precious name, but there is no fault in the sinless Lamb of God (1st Peter 1:19).
“Nobody can withstand the attack of a critic!” —Dr. Jack Hyles, a quote from the sermon, “ I Find No Fault In This Man!”
“Faith is the only righteous thing that I can do!” —Pastor Jack Hyles, a quote from the MP3 sermon titled: “God's Reversal Of Psalm 51”
“God thought it, Jesus bought it, the preacher taught it, and I caught it!” —Pastor Jack Hyles, a beautiful quote from the MP3 sermon titled: “Yea, Yea, And Nay, Nay”
“All you have to do is accept His gift of eternal life and you'll go to Heaven when you die!”—Dr. Jack Hyles, a quote from the great sermon, “I Find No Fault In This Man!”
“If you want a church like this, we invite you to join our church, but I want to warn you—We can't stand close inspection, just like you can't—but if you as a sinner will come and join the rest of us sinners, we'll all try to be better people together!” —Dr. Jack Hyles, a quote from the great sermon, “I Find No Fault In This Man!”
“If we could ever hate the sin in ourselves as much as we hate the sin in others, we might have some idea what His Book is all about.” —Pastor Jack Hyles (a quote from page 322 of the awesome biography of Dr. Hyles titled, “The Fundamental Man”
“They've attacked our children. We love our kids! They're not all perfect, but we love 'em. We love them when they're good and we love 'em when they're bad. ... Mrs. Hyles and I love our children. We love them when they succeed, we love 'em when they fail. I've said through these years, our kids are growing up, it doesn't matter what our kids do when they get older, they're our kids! AND WE LOVE 'EM! AND YOU LOVE YOURS!” —Dr. Jack Hyles, a quote from the needful May 14, 1989 sermon, “Weathering The Storm!”
“If you want to never do anything that is terribly wicked, then you never do anything that is slightly wicked.” —Pastor Jack Hyles, a life-changing quote from the sermon, “Unjust In The Least.”
“Nothing is unimportant! Nothing! Every little detail's important!”
—Pastor Jack Hyles, a life-changing quote from the sermon, “Unjust In The Least.”“The same attention is given to the guilty, that's given to the innocent. I wish Christians were that way. A gun battle takes place—a criminal and a police officer—that criminal is shot in the gun battle, and so is the police officer. They both are critically wounded. The paramedics come. They give the same attention to that criminal, that they give to that police officer. Why? It's not their job to help the innocent wounded, it's their job to help the wounded. Sometimes they'll put a man in the hospital room, have an armed guard at his door, and have doctors on the inside trying to save his life. Do you know why, because the medical profession is not the judicial profession. You'll never hear a better statement than that! I wish Christians were like that... THE MEDICAL PROFESSION IS NOT THE JUDICIAL PROFESSION! The medical profession is given to the healing of bodies, —all bodies—self-inflicted wounds, as well as others-inflicted wounds! I wish Christians were like that.” —Pastor Jack Hyles, a quote from the awesome sermon titled, “The Hurting Sinner Hurts Just As Much As The Hurting Saint.”
