The Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches (FIEC) is now heretical

The Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches (FIEC) is a fellowship of Calvinist (mainly Baptist and Congregationalist) churches in Great Britain established in 1922. Today, FIEC has over 600 member churches across the country.

The FIEC is historically traditional and conservative. However, today they are increasingly liberal. In my survey of some of their member churches, I have discovered female deacons in some of them including the Westminster Chapel where Martyn Lloyd-Jones once preached. I have yet to find any FIEC member church (again including Westminster Chapel) where the Authorised Version (KJV) is read and preached from. Lloyd-Jones was a supporter of the KJV and yet it appears that even the Westminster Chapel has abandoned the KJV.

FIEC appears to be at war with the KJV. The leadership of FIEC member churches appears to be extremely hostile to the KJV. Any version is acceptable other than the KJV. Not only do they ban the reading and preaching from the KJV in their services, they effectively forbid godly men who read and trust only the KJV from serving in church leadership. 

The FIEC churches sing modernised versions of traditional hymns (no more 'thou', 'thee', and other KJV English) from the Praise! hymn book, all kinds of modern songs, and even songs from heretics (like Hillsong and Bethel Music) and charismatics but no song with KJV English is allowed.

Does FIEC know what they are doing? Opposing the KJV is opposing the Word of God. Opposing the Word of God is opposing the Almighty God Himself. 

By promoting and reading false bibles such as the ESV and NIV (the most common false bibles read in FIEC churches), the FIEC is now heretical. By banning the KJV and claiming KJV supporters as divisive, the FIEC is determined to remain heretical.

Without the KJV - the Word of God in English - in their hands, the FIEC has NO right to claim that they believe in Sola Scriptura (Scriptures alone).   

It is little wonder why Evangelicals in England are increasingly liberal.

Piper and MacArthur doubt the Bible

John Piper taught in his sermon on 6 March 2011 that Pericope Adultarae (John 7:53-8:11) is not the Word of God.  Meanwhile, in his sermon on 26 June 2011, John MacArthur taught that the traditional conclusion of St. Mark's Gospel (Mark 16:9-20) is not part of Holy Scriptures.

Both Piper and MacArthur have put their trust in the Modern Critical Text and the unbelieving scholars. It is a tragedy that these men have become supporters of unbelievers and false bibles.

I would now question if Piper, MacArthur, and all Evangelical pastors who read and preach from false bibles such as NIV, ESV, NASB, and CSB, have any right to teach us to have faith in the Bible when they themselves doubt the Bible.

Is it any wonder why Evangelicals are getting increasingly liberal?

Modern versions and liberalism

 A quick thought for the day.

It appears that the unbiblical liberal churches of the modern day that forsake biblical truth all read from modern Bible versions (such as NIV) translated from the Modern Critical Text (chiefly represented by the UBS Nestle-Aland Greek New Testament).

Is this a coincidence?

Absolutely not. It was unbelief, liberalism, and egocentrism that led to the forsaking of the Authorised Version (KJV) and the Traditional Text represented by the Greek Textus Receptus of the New Testament.

Therefore, there is certainly a direct link between modern versions and liberalism.

What do Modern Critical Text scholars, Mormons, and Muslims have in common?

The answer is very simple: They all deny the Divine Preservation of the Word of God.

Can you now see that by supporting and reading modern English false bibles (such as the NIV, ESV, NASB, and CSB) and the Modern Critical Text of the Greek New Testament, you are actually agreeing with Mormons and Muslims?

The Turin Shroud

There were reports over the last few days about Italian researchers supposedly proved that the Turin Shroud originated from the first century.

To readers who do not know about the Turin Shroud, it was claimed that the Shroud is the burial cloth of our Lord. The Shroud contains an image of a man (maybe visible only through certain types of camera) and was discovered in the middle of the fourteenth century.

I do not believe the claim that the Shroud is the burial cloth of our Lord.

First, the Gospels do not record whatsoever happened to the burial cloth after the Resurrection of our Lord other than:


Then arose Peter, and ran unto the sepulchre; and stooping down, he beheld the linen clothes laid by themselves, and departed, wondering in himself at that which was come to pass.

(Luke 24:12)


And he stooping down, and looking in, saw the linen clothes lying; yet went he not in.

Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie,

And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself.

(John 20:5-7)


Second, there is also no certain and proven explanation of whatsoever happened to the Shroud between the first and fourteenth centuries. Even the Italian researchers who somehow proved the Shroud to originate from the first century cannot explain whatsoever happened to the Shroud in the 1,300 years before its discovery.

Third, the authenticity of the Shroud was doubted by a bishop not long after its discovery in the fourteenth century while carbon dating done by scientists in the twentieth century suggested that the Shroud originated from about the time of its discovery.

Fourth, according to the same Italian researchers, for the conclusion that the Shroud originated from the first century to be true, certain specific conditions such as some temperature over 1,300 years prior to the Shroud’s discovery is required. In my opinion, the same Italian researchers are only suggesting a possibility (with very low probability) and not proving the Shroud to originate from the first century.

Therefore, with these four reasons, I do not believe about the claims concerning the Turin Shroud.

Trust God or unbelieving scholars?

 A question for those who read modern false bibles such as NIV, ESV, NASB, and CSB.

Do you believe in the Divine Preservation of the Holy Scriptures?

Or do you believe that unbelievers need to use their own understanding and methods to guess what is in the Bible?

Therefore, do you trust God or unbelieving scholars?

The editors of the Modern Critical Text that is chiefly represented by the Nestle-Aland text are unbelieving scholars. If you do not accept an unbelieving scholar preaching in Church, why do you accept the  unbelieving scholar telling you what is in the Bible?

Dear reader, you must reject modern false bibles such as the NIV, ESV, NASB, and CSB. The Modern Critical Text is used in the translation of these false bibles. It is unsurprising if modern false bibles bring doubts to their readers.

Evangelical work using the NIV (or any other modern version)

Handing out free copies of the Gospels and exhorting men to trust in the Bible are often parts of evangelical work.

I know of a church that is distributing free copies of St. Mark's Gospel and inviting unbelievers to Bible studies on the same Gospel every Sunday. The motivation is certainly very good. However, in an effort to remove the supposed language barriers due to the Biblical English of the Authorised Version (KJV) of the Holy Bible, the church chose the NIV St. Mark's Gospel to be distributed and studied.

Now a potential conflict arises.

The unbeliever is encouraged to trust in the Bible and while convincing himself to remove any doubt towards the Bible, the same unbeliever may turn to the final pages of the NIV St. Mark's Gospel that he was given earlier. 

What would the unbeliever see? 

There is a possibility that the unbeliever may see a statement such as 'the earliest and best manuscripts do not contain Mark 16:9-20' after Mark 16:8. What would the unbeliever think after seeing that statement?

Can modern version supporters not see that instead of promoting better understanding of the Bible, modern versions such as the NIV, ESV, NASB, and CSB are themselves obstacles to evangelical work and sources of doubt?
