Preaching Salvation: In the Bible

 I have been going to a church in Columbia for about 3 years and agree with 95% of the pastor's doctrine, however he did something today that I cannot agree with.  Today the church was so caught up in worship that the pastor didn’t have time to preach: he opened the doors of the church without preaching first.

The Bible says that by the foolishness of preaching men are saved[1 Corinthinas1], so without preaching no one can be saved.  My wife admonished me for pointing out this discrepancy and said, "he didn't preach but he quoted a ton of scriptures"  Once again, the bible doesn't say by the quoting of scripture men are saved, but by preaching men are saved.

Another thing that bothers me is that in 3 years of going to that church, I hadn't seen as many people come forward to be saved as I did today, they were overcome with worship, and it bothers me because the pastor didn't even preach.  So what drew them to Christ; well, my wife believes that the spirit in the worship service and the scriptures quoted by the pastor, drew them to Christ; I believe that this points to the doctrines of the last days, doctrines of devils, stating that you can be saved without preaching.

I am positive that a few of you don't see anything wrong with the pastor not preaching., well, the bible says that in the end times, there will be all manner of false doctrine and crimes against the faith of  Christ and the people won't see anything wrong with it!!!

So, tell me what do you think?  Is the bible wrong, can you be saved without preaching Jesus Christ and Christ crucified?

Salvation is Personal: In the Bible

 God showed me in a dream, that we should never question/proclaim that someone is not saved.  I'll be direct here... the bible says that if you confess that Jesus Christ is the son of God, and believe that God raised him from the grave, then you are saved.  There is no other standard for salvation.

I say this because sometimes we look at people's actions and declare that they are not saved.  (1)For example, there was a pastor that I met when I was young that went around molesting young kids(I was one of them that he molested), I can't say that he wasn't saved, what he did was wrong and evil but he could have been saved. (2) In the bible, Paul was consenting that Steven(who is considered to be a Saint) should be killed, and did worse things than that in God's name, however no one will say that Paul wasn't saved(Paul did these things before he was saved by the way).

In my dream, I kissed a woman who was not my wife and all of my sisters attacked me and said that I was not saved because I had sinned.  It is my personal belief that a man can have more than one wife.  Now the bible does say that if you have a wife, seek not a wife [1 Corinthians 7:27], and when we are married we agree to forsake all others (which is not in the Bible); but as far was the Bible is concerned, we can have more than one wife.  In the bible David, who the bible calls a man after God's own heart, had three wives and his son, Solomon had 700 wives and 300 concubines(women who he slept with, who were not his wife)  There isn't a Christian alive that will say that David nor Solomon wasn't saved and they lived before they could confess Jesus(Read my book: Jesus in Hell four days, to find out how they were saved).

The point of this post is this; salvation is a personal thing; it's between a person and God; yes there are things we shouldn't do if we are saved but sinning does not mean that we are not saved...
