The speaker was very difficult for me to listen to for the following 2 reasons:
1) He wrote a book about the authority and inerrancy of the King James Version of the Bible, but he does not honor God’s word regarding the office he holds:
1 Tim 3:1 (KJV) This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.
Evidently, he does not believe being a bishop is a good work, since he substitutes The Living Bible’s title instead of using the KJV:
1 Tim 3:1 (TLB) It is a true saying that if a man wants to be a pastor he has a good ambition.
The Living Bible replaces the KJV’s ‘bishop’ with ‘pastor’ every time (1 Tim 3:1 and 2; Titus 1:7, and Phil 1:1).
2) Although the speaker is a teacher by profession, his repetitive speech pattern was extremely distracting. I do not think he was actually inviting the congregation to audibly respond to his questions. But each time he asked, “What?” .... I made a tally mark. I did NOT count ANY time that those words were used in a normal interrogative sentence. Here is an example of how he ‘preached’ his sermon, “The law of _what?_ hath made me _what?_ from the _what?_ of _what?_.” He asked, “What?” 102 times; “How?” 2 times; “Who?” 13 times; and “Where?” 12 times.
Other than those two very high hurdles, the content of his message and his thoughtfulness of its subject were good.
