Well, I suppose you might have a point. I mean, it got me to think: Has Will ever claimed to understand the doctrine of repentance and faith, and is that what he teaches? Hmm... I don't know that I cannot remember anything specific. I presumed that was the case, that he understands godly sorrow and all that, but perhaps he doesn't.
I went back to Will's original introduction post, and interestingly enough, he doesn't mention anything about it:
http://www.creationliberty.com/forum/index.php?topic=432.0#msg3103Hmm. Now I am starting to see why he is so quick to defend Jeff. So, I think I would start having the same questions for Will that I have for Jeff. It's also interesting to note that I had to censor personal information for Will when he first joined too, except that Will did not respond with an attitude of strife that Jeff did. So Jeanne, that's why I said from a philosophical standpoint, you were right, but I just don't want to accuse him of teaching false doctrine until he actually teaches false doctrine. (I mean, he has taught false doctrine on this forum in the past, but just not yet in this instance; if he keeps quoting Scripture and speaking, he will reveal his true beliefs, it won't take long.)
I was doing some more cleaning house on Facebook this morning, and I think I have finally got my "friend" list mostly cleaned out, since I've had so many people "friend" me who are completely given over to the world. There was one account I ran into that, under normal circumstances, I would have removed from my friends list because of what was being posted (and due to the lack of anything about the Word of God), but I kept this person on the list just in case due to the current situation on this thread, and that person happened to be William. I am pretty certain this is him (both accounts are from the same city in Kansas with the same first and last name, which, by the way, I thought he was in Florida for some reason, so I apologize that I got that part wrong in a previous post), and if I am wrong about this being his FB profile, I very much apologize:
https://www.facebook.com/will.cullum.7Please notice that almost all of his posts are political. For someone who professes to be a Christian evangelist (as he has expressed to me many times that he preaches to the homeless and prisoners), that's kinda' odd don't you think? Why would his evangelism and the Scripture
NOT be front and center in his posts? I'm not saying that no Christian can post anything political, don't misunderstand, but the problem is that political things are almost entirely what William posts.
His "About" page has mostly nothing, so there isn't anything else to draw on. However, in December of 2019 alone, he made 12 posts. Of those, 11 are political. One of them was about fossils and evolutionism, or something to do with that; that was the odd one out. Nothing about Scripture, nothing about his evangelistic works, just stuff about media, environmentalism, etc. And to me, I find that very strange.
Ask yourselves this: You know that I do Bible teachings every week and I'm writing and studying in Scripture throughout the week; if I were to have nothing on my profile except worldly things, would you all not find that a little strange? Based on the evidence, it seems that William acts one way normally, but then tries to change his normal demeanor and speech when around those who are born again in Christ.
Of those 12 posts, he quoted two people. One was from Thomas Jefferson, who is man that did not believe in the miracles of the Bible, nor in the divinity of Jesus, but lacking discernment, William thinks that Jefferson's so-called "wisdom" is good for consumption, which is why he published it.
For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.
-1Co 1:17The second was from Frederic Bastiat, a Freemason who denied the Lord Jesus Christ, and again, William thinks his so-called "wisdom" is good for consumption.
I went back through the entire year of posts on his profile for 2019, and there is not one verse of Scripture, there is no discussion of doctrine, there is no promotion of evangelism;
NOTHING concerning Christ. It's all political stuff, and so on the one hand, Will comes here and deceives everyone by telling this story to make himself look good:
http://www.creationliberty.com/forum/index.php?topic=941.msg7804#msg7804Reading that, I decided to be charitable and take him at his word, but when I first read that, in the back of mind, I questioned whether or not that was even true. I could not put my finger on why something was wrong, but I ignored it and just went with it. Now that I can see other things that Will says and does, it helps me understand why I was seeing a problem, especially when we consider two important points:
1. Will almost never posts on this forum, and yet...
2. Will posted that the day before he sent me his original complaint against myself and Tim.
I don't believe that was a coincidence.
There are many more things I could point out about Will's profile that was very strange, but just to compare, here's Kenneth's FB profile:
https://www.facebook.com/kenneth.winslow.14You'll see that Kenneth published a lot of stuff on street preaching, he has Scripture, and all that stuff, right? In another example, here's Tim's profile:
https://www.facebook.com/tim.beasley.756Tim hasn't posted anything on FB in four years, but even his looks more Biblically solid than Will's, and you can tell Tim has a lot more emphasis put on the Word of God.
The purpose of me pointing this out is that what a man speaks shows his heart. We can only see what things that Will has told us, and so I am going by what I am seeing in his words and doctrine. However, when I look at more evidence outside of that, it verifies that my discernment about his words and doctrine is correct because what he is saying and doing in other places is reflective of the pride and lack of understanding I see in his words here.
And so far, Will likes to say that he "doesn't understand" these things. But now with more evidence, I think I'm starting to figure out why that is the case:
But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
-1Co 2:14
