V
Acts 20:29-30 For I
know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not
sparing the flock. Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse
things, to draw away disciples after them. V 2 Corinthians 11:3-4 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtlety, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.

N In 1913, at a Pentecostal camp meeting, John G. Scheppe, spent the night in prayer meditating on baptism. “In the early hours of the morning he ran through the camp, shouting that the Lord had shown him the truth on baptism in the Name of Jesus Christ.” (David A. Reed, The Origins and Development of the Theology of Oneness Pentecostalism in the United States, 1980, page 99.) This new “revelation” from “God” would be the foundation of the United Pentecostal (Truth Tabernacle) cult. N “As their name implies, the United Pentecostals were once a part of the Pentecostal Churches, and the Assemblies of God. They were excommunicated from this fellowship for their denial of accepted Christian theology. United Pentecostals - Denomination or Cult, MacGregor Ministries. N The way of salvation according to the United Pentecostal (Truth Tabernacle) false cult: “The Original New Testament Plan of Salvation Is Still The Only Way To Be Saved. Step 1 Have faith in Jesus Christ as your Savior and repent…believing is absolutely essential, but only the first step! Step 2 Be baptized by immersion in the Name of Jesus Christ…Obtain remission of sins in baptism through obedience and faith in His name…not to be confused with repeating the titles Father-Son Holy Ghost Step 3 Receive the Holy Spirit baptism evidenced by tongues…know that tongues is the initial evidence of receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost.” Taken from a pamphlet printed by the Truth
Church, Life is full of Questions! V
Luke
13:5 I tell you, Nay: but,
except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. The Bible
also teaches that we need to be baptized. V
Mark 16:16
He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that
believeth not shall be damned. There is only one baptism. V Ephesians 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism John, who baptized with water said the real baptism was of God’s Spirit. V Matthew 3:11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire: This is confirmed by the writings of the Apostle Paul. V1 Corinthians 12:13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. N The United Pentecostals teach that one must be baptized by water before we receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. However Cornelius received the Holy Spirit before he was baptized by water! V Acts 10:44-48 While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word. And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost. For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter, Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have receivedthe Holy Ghost as well as we? And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days. NOTE: Acts 2:38 was the very beginning of the church age, when for the very first time, the Holy Spirit began to indwell in those who were already believers. N The United Pentecostals teach that we must be baptized in the name of Jesus only. This is because they deny the trinity. They follow the ancient heresy of modalism, that God exists in one person, which sometimes manifests itself as the Father, sometimes the Son and sometimes the Holy Spirit. V
Matthew
28:19 Go ye therefore, and
teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and
of the Holy Ghost: Although the United Pentecostals
deny the trinity, this doctrine is clearly taught in the Bible. V1
John 5:7 For there are
three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and
these three are one. The United Pentecostals might
deny that God exists in three distinct persons, but the Bible clearly teaches
that the Son is distinct from the Father and the Holy Spirit. V
Isaiah
48:16 Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken
in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am
I: and now the Lord GOD, and his Spirit, hath sent me.
V
Revelation
5:6-7 And I beheld, and,
lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the
elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes,
which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. And he came
and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne. the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. N The United Pentecostals teach that one needs to speak in tongues in order to be saved. Jesus warned of the dangers of
seeking after signs, wonders and miracles. V
Matthew
12:39 But he answered and
said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and
there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas: N
United Pentecostal believe that speaking in tongues proves that one is
saved. The Bible says that we walk
by faith, not by sight. V
2 Corinthians 5:7 (For
we walk by faith, not by sight:) V Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. John the Baptist was filled with the Spirit from birth. V
Luke 1:15 and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from
his mother’s womb. V
John
10:41 John did no miracle:
Paul taught that all believers do not speak in tongues. V
1
Corinthians 12:28-30 And
God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly
teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments,
diversities of tongues. Are all
apostles? are all prophets? are
all teachers? are all workers of miracles? Have all the gifts of healing? do all
speak with tongues? do all interpret? We will not be judged according to John Scheppe’s special
revelation, we will be judged according to Paul’s gospel!!! V
Romans 2:16 In the
day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my
gospel. V
Galatians
1:8-9 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. What is Paul’s gospel? The believer is saved by grace alone, through faith alone in Jesus Christ alone. V
Ephesians 2:8-9 For
by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it
is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. V
Romans
10:9 That if thou shalt
confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God
hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
V
Romans
10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord
shall be saved. V Romans 11:6 And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work. HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH V Romans 16:17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.
