CERM openly takes the stand against false teachers
and doctrine. The Word of God says that those
that love the Lord will Hate Evil (Psa
97:10) and will also hate
every false way (Psa 119:104). I seek no
association with the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead by
this page am exposing it (Eph 5:11). CERM has been challenged and
attacked by many. The biggest attacks have been from Charismatics and
Word of Faith Charismatics. Some well known leaders in Christendom
have attacked CERM. From the
King James Version Only Movement
(Peter
Ruckman), and from the Word
of Faith/Third
Wave movements both (Randy
Clark) and (Bill
Johnson). CERM has also been repeatedly
attacked by some cults. From the OneNess
Pentecostal cult an apostate named
(Steve
Winter). Although many have come against
this ministry the Bible says that God promises his protection. "No
weapon that is fashioned against you shall succeed, and you shall
confute every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the
heritage of the servants of the LORD and their vindication from me,
declares the LORD" (Isa 54:17, ESV).
Besides the attacks many have been blessed by the ministry of
CERM. One individual wrote the following which very accurately
describes this ministry
Dear Brother, First of all, I greet you in the most holy name of our dear Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. A big thank you for your web site, and above all, a big thank you to our almighty Father in heaven who makes your ministry possible. Your ministry has been a tremendous blessing to me. You tell the truth and expose the lies and deceptions of the forces of darkness.
This list will continue to be updated. By no means is the list below exhaustive or complete. NOTE I will REMOVE those on this list here who have repented of their false teachings or false ways.
1. Pastor
Fred Phelps
Church/Doctrines-Westboro Baptist Church/
Hyper Calvinist Protestant
False teachings- Preaches a message of hatred against unsaved people.
This pastor believes that God hates "fags" which is not Biblical. For
a basic exposure of Phelps person, please visit this
website.
2. Pastor
Steve Winter
Church/Doctrines - OneNess
Pentecostalism
False teachings- Denies the trinity, does not believe that Jesus
Christ is God, preaches a gospel of Hatred, and he teaches that
Baptism and Speaking in Tongues are required for salvation.
Also holds to the following doctrines
Jesus is God the Father.
Jesus is the Holy Spirit.
The name of God is "Jesus."
Denies pre-existence of the Word as the Son. Teaches that the He
existed as the Father.
Being born again means repentance, baptism, and speaking in
tongues.
Baptism must be administered by an ordained Oneness minister to be
valid.
Baptism must be administered with the phrase, "In the name of Jesus"
instead of the phrase, "In the name of the Father, the Son, and the
Holy Spirit" (Matt. 28:19).
Speaking in tongues is a necessary requirement to demonstrate that a
person has been baptized in the Holy Spirit, and is, therefore,
saved. It is claimed to be the initial sign of the infilling of the
Holy Ghost.
Restitution of all things, though the devil and the angels will not
be restored.
Women may be pastors. (Read 1 Cor 14, 1 Tim 2-3)
Only Oneness people will go to heaven.

Jakes
Church/Doctrines -Oneness
Pentecostalism
False teachings- Oneness
Pentecostalism
Denies the doctrine of the Trinity. (Makes them a cult)
Denies justification by faith alone by stating that baptism is also
required for salvation.
Jesus is God the Father.
Jesus is the Holy Spirit.
The name of God is "Jesus."
Baptism is necessary for salvation.
Denies pre-existence of the Word as the Son. Teaches that the He

6. Bill
Johnson
Church/Doctrines - Bethel Church/
Word
of Faith
False teachings- He teaches a Word
of Faith gospel, and as such is a false
teacher. Although I cannot say for certain that Johnson is unsaved,
what I can say is that the Word of faith movement is false, and
Johnson is in error for teaching some of the hellfire doctrines of
the movement. Johnson loves Benny Hinn, and Hinn is no question a
false teacher.
Exposure
Johnson's Word of Faith Theology in the Simpson University Newspaper
The Redding
Record Searchlight ran a series on Bethel.
I contributed my thoughts in one of the articles.
Article #1 Bethel

False teachings
That Adam was God manifest in the flesh.
God is the greatest failure in the Universe.

The death of Jesus on the Cross did not pay the price for sins.
Jesus Christ communicates directly with Copeland.

12. Darwin
Fish
Church/Doctrines-
Legalism
False Teachings-Thinks his church is the only
true church.
On his website as of 9/28/08 it is quoted from (http://www.atruechurch.info/faq.html)
the following.
1. Are you the only true church/believers?
We do not know. There was a church in Murfreesboro, TN, but that has since dissolved. Other than that, we have not yet, as of this date, found another church that is in the truth (1 John 4:6), and we have been to many. Will we find one? Actually, the real question is, will Christ find one?
Disobedient & Hypocritical Christians
The individuals in this list I do
not consider to be as dangerous as those in the list above. The
individuals below are misleading others in a immoral or bad doctrine
that must be addressed. Those who think it
is unloving to confront, admonish, or correct need to reexamine
Jesus' approach to the rich young ruler (The Jesus You Cant Ignore,
John MacArthur, 51). I have found it impossible to deal with
those in the list below on a one on one basis, and none of their
supporters hold them accountable so they have been included on this
page.
1. Rev
Angus Stewart
Church/Doctrines-Hyper
Calvinism
False teachings- Teaches that God HATES
people.
Negative Effect- Because of his example his supporters have or may
believe that God literally hates people, and hates them from the
beginning. His Hyper Calvinism must be addressed.

Also said this to me in a email
I'd like to respond to 2 points you made in the video:
1) God does not love everybody - this is not the gospel. He did not love,
but hated Esau (Romans 9:13).
