Thank you for your concern but I promise you, I'm more than confident and happy in my church affiliation. There is no doubt in my mind. So thank you for the recommendations but I am filled with the Truth, happy as a clam and completely disinterested in the testimony of disgruntled ex-Catholics. I have done plenty of reading, and do not wish to fill my head with anti-catholic propaganda. But again, thank you for your concern.

Hi VP,

 

If you are so sure that you have chosen the right "church" which can assure you eternal life; I am happy for you.   However, I do not put my faith in any church; only in my personal saving relationship with Jesus Christ.  Therefore, only what we find in His Written Word, the Bible, can have authority in my life.   Yep, Sola Scriptura all the way!

 

And, I can understand you not wanting to read the writings of others who have found this same Truth.  After all, what one reads CAN affect his/her belief structure -- and that can feel threatening to many.   On the other hand, those who are secure in what God has written in His Bible -- will have the courage to read others who disagree.

 

As an example, I know that the churches which spun out of the old Worldwide Church of God (Herbert W. Armstrong) when its new president removed its cult teachings and brought that church in line with mainstream Christian teachings from the Bible -- are still cult churches.  There are about six or more of those who remained in the cult teachings.

 

Yet, I receive magazines from several of those cult churches.  Why?  For two reasons:  (1) their theology is cult; but, their analysis of world events as they relate to Biblical teachings is smack on.  So, I read what they have to say about these world events.  And, (2) it is always good to know what the world is saying which is in opposition to the Written Word of God.

 

I suppose it is like the old maxim:  "Keep you friends close; but, keep you enemies even closer."    Why?  What better way of knowing when they have a knife to your throat -- than to be watching them.  Now, you know why I have never Blocked or Ignored any of my Forum Friends.

 

God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,

 

Bill

Hi Bill. I and my wife are missionaries here in the central Philippines. Back in 1997 we sponsored Dr.Pezzotta to come to Cebu and give a number of Seminars that contrast sound biblical teachings with the contradictory traditions and dogmas of the RCC, including the idolatrous use of religious images. It was a great success here. Unfortunately, his book (and booklets) which were mostly at that time printed by Church Strengthening Ministries, are no longer available in the Philippines. And they are also difficult to obtain by way of the Internet. What can we do to remedy this situation ? His outstanding research and very readable print ministry is no longer to be found almost anywhere, and this is a tragedy that needs to be corrected. As I recall, he also had about a dozen excellent booklets printed on the following topics: The Pope; Authority; Mary; The Priesthood; Images; and many other important topics. His well researched information should be available on Amazon and many other resources.  We must pray and ask GOD how to get this literature & research back in circulation. 

Thanks and GOD bless.

Pastor Len Hummel

Hi Pastor Len,

 

Dr. Tony Pezzotta was indeed a great man of God.   Unfortunately, a few years ago he became ill and had to retire and live with his children in Denver.   His daughter, Marie Pezzotta Foote and husband, Jordan, are missionaries in San José, Costa Rica.   His son, Dan, lives in Denver.  Both Dan Pezzotta and Marie Pezzotta Foote are on Facebook.  I know they would love to hear from you.

 

My Facebook page is:   https://www.facebook.com/bill.gray.5 

 

Tony passed away last year and his wife moved back East to live with her family there.

 

Before his illness, Tony worked with the Conservative Baptist Association (CB) of Southern California, which is now known as the Pacific Church Network.

 

Their web site is:  http://www.pacificchurchnetwork.com/#welcome

 

Their Facebook page is:  https://www.facebook.com/Pacif...rk/info?tab=overview

 

The executive secretary there is Laura Harder.  If you would like her e-mail, you can Message me on Facebook and I will give it to you.  Laura can tell you if they still have Tony's book "Truth Encounter" available or if they are going to reprint it.  I have his 4-page pamphlet titled "Should I Leave My Church?"   I can scan it to a .pdf file and e-mail it to you.

 

Another good book which first introduced me to Anthony Pezzotta many years ago is "Far From Rome, Near To God, Testimonies Of Fifty Converted Roman Catholic Priest" published by The Banner Of Truth Trust.  It is available in most Christian bookstores.

 

Last year Tony's daughter, Marie, and I chatted via e-mail about his book and I also expressed a desire to see it published on line so that more folks would have access to it.  She mentioned that there was some work being done toward that.   Maybe by now it is closer to being published.   Let's both encourage her to have that finished, if it is not already.

 

Pastor Len, thank you for contacting me.  I look forward to having more exchanges with you.

 

I believe I found you on Facebook.  Are you in Cebu City?  If so, I sent you a Facebook Friends Request.  If that is not you -- then I may have another Friend named Len Hummel.

 

God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,

 

Bill

Thanks Bill. we're now friends on fb.

 

I hope to see Tony's book available online and also both the book and the booklets re-printed soon. Especially the four booklets titled, THE POPE; MARY & MARIOLATRY; IMAGES; and AUTHORITY. I hope both his family and the Pacific Church Network get behind this project as even a priority because this kind of solid, biblical information is badly needed among Christians. In today's world: VERY badly needed.

 

 

Hi Pastor Len,

 

I am happy that we are not Facebook Friends.  And, I would encourage you to contact Tony's daughter, Marie, about getting his book published online and to contact Pacific Church Network to encourage them to put Tony's book into a new printing.  The more of us who ask, the more likely it is to happen.

 

I will post their e-mail addresses in your Facebook Message page.

 

God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,

 

Bill

Vic, my Friend,

 

Why are YOU so dishonest that you attempt to change what another has written -- to make it seem as though that was the original?  

 

Are you NOT smart enough to know how to show the changes as your work, and not the original writer?

 

Maybe you need to enroll in a "How To Use The Computer 101" class -- OR possibly an "English 101" class OR, most likely, a "Morally Ethical 101" class.

 

Most likely, you will need ALL THREE to bring you up to a seemingly competent level of normal human communications skills.

 

But, all in all, it is good that you keep bumping this article about Dr. Anthony Pezzotta to the top.  That way, more folks can know of him and his work.  Thank you.

 

Bless your dishonest little heart!

Hi Bill. I must admit: you tend to be more patient and longsuffering with nasty people who only want to attack or provoke or make trouble. I tend to simply ignore them.

 

I enjoy discussion and even civil debate, ... but when people get nasty over on my forums: they are warned and then if they continue: their posts are moderated, or they are gagged, or even banned.

 

Being on a computer or being "anonymous" does NOT give someone the right to harass or attack others in any way that is personal or out of bounds. - but those are just my rules; I think you generally (as far as I can see) have a very gracious way of moderating your forum.

 

GOD bless.

Bill isn't here for discussion and civil debate.  He is here to street-corner preach.  If you disagree with him, he denigrates you and your beliefs.  He's run more true Christians away from this forum than can be counted.

 

I guess when he says "bless your _______ heart", that is what you would call gracious. 

 

Bill has had more of his posts and topics removed than anyone else here on the forums.  His "graciousness" has caused him to be banned.  He is usually the person who casts the first stone.

 

We all have become quite sick of his childish antics.

 

Most of us would love to come to your forum where civil debate is encouraged, instead of having one person try to tell everyone else what to think and believe, or suffer his denigration and ridicule.

 

I hope you will stick around and contribute.  We need someone that Bill has some respect for to show him how a true Christian behaves.

Hi Pastor Len,

 

Let me introduce you to two of my Forum Friends.  Chick is an agnostic who is working toward her Ph.d. in atheism.   She tells us that, as a young girl, she was a believer.  But, she got mad at God for not answering a prayer -- which we all have done at one time or another.  Yet, she believes that a person can just get mad at God and evict the indwelling and sealing Holy Spirit.  As I have told her, God, the Holy Spirit, cannot be evicted.  Once He seals a person, that person is sealed until the day of his/her redemption (Ephesians 1:13, 4:30).  However, if that person is only on the verge of committing to Christ -- yes, that person can walk away.

 

And, she continually swears that Bill Gray has condemned her to hell.  Once again, I explain to her that NO ONE, not even God, can condemn a person to hell.  The ONLY one who can condemn a person to hell -- is that person.  

 

God offers two doors:  heaven and hell.   We all MUST make the choice between which eternal door we will enter.  God will not force us to choose heaven, or hell.  That is a decision that ONLY we individually can, and MUST, make.  No decision -- is a decision.  

 

However, the default choice is hell.   To enter heaven a person MUST purposely choose to follow Christ.  Yet, no matter how many times I explain this to my Friend, Chick -- she swears up and down that Bill Gray has condemned her to hell.   I pray that she does change before it is too late; for Jesus Christ will give her the same explanation at the Great White Throne Judgment.  The bad news is -- if she stands before Him at that judgment, it is too late.

 

And, my Friend, Crusty, tells us that he is a Christian -- but, has absolutely refused to enter a church for many years -- because he does not like the people who go to church.   To him, the Bible is not to be viewed and read as the literal Written Word of God -- because it is so full of errors and contradictions.  According to him, all the Pauline writings should be tossed out, along with most of the other epistles.  And, he may accept the four Gospels -- but, within limits.  

 

Crusty tells you in his latest post:

 

Bill has had more of his posts and topics removed than anyone else here on the forums.  His "graciousness" has caused him to be banned.  He is usually the person who casts the first stone.

 

While I will admit that a number of times when Crusty or Chick complain to the forum Mod, some of my posted discussions have been moved to other forums - Politics, Misc, etc.   But none that I recall have been deleted by the Mods for being in bad taste nor for being malicious.

 

Matter of fact, when I first came on the Religion Forum in Jan 2007, the Mod and I exchanged Private Messages -- he suggesting that I not use my real name nor post my e-mail address.  I agreed with him about the e-mail address.  That I will only give now in a Private Message.  However, as I explained to him, "I cannot come on this forum, or any forum, to share the Word of God -- and hide behind a phony pseudonym.  How can anyone accept the Gospel as true -- when the one sharing it is hiding behind a phony posting name?"

 

That Mod did tell me, "I have read many of your posts and I have never seen you to be nasty or malicious to anyone."   

 

I did get banned for one week.  My reason for coming on the Religion Forum in 2007 was because two atheist, DeepFat and GoFish, were using it a their platform to sell their religion of atheism.  So, I became a member to refute those teachings.

 

As I said, early in my posting days,  I was also including my e-mail address.  So, GoFish, who is in the computer business and knows about the industry -- tried to send an e-mail to my wife.  In this e-mail, he pretended to be a woman I had met at a computer conference, telling my wife that she and I had an affair at that conference.  

What the foolish man did not know is that my wife ALWAYS traveled to the computer shows with me.  We viewed these trips to other cities like a second honeymoon.  And, after a few years, Dory could walk around the convention floor alone -- and many folks would greet her, "Hi Dory, How's your real estate business doing?"   It soon became obvious that more folks knew her at the conventions -- than knew me.

 

So, after Dory and I had a good laugh at GoFish's attempt to cause trouble, I wrote him a Private Message asking him how he would feel if I did something like that to him.  And, I told him, "Since I know who you are behind your GoFish pseudonym -- how would you like it if I told folks on the forum your real name?"    I did not  say that I was going to out him, only asked how he would like that -- since he had attempted to cause trouble between me and my wife?

 

He reported my Private Message to the Mod (Elizabeth) and she banned me for one week for just suggesting that I could out him.  She and I talked on the phone and even though I explained that I had not threatened to out him, only asked how he would like it -- I accepted her decision.  And, for one week out of the last seven plus years, Bill Gray did not post on the TimesDaily Religion Forum.

 

Pastor Len, you wrote in your post:

 

Being on a computer or being "anonymous" does NOT give someone the right to harass or attack others in any way that is personal or out of bounds.  But those are just my rules; I think you generally (as far as I can see) have a very gracious way of moderating your forum.

 

I realize that you were not really calling this MY forum, nor saying that I am the Moderator.   However, these two Friends, along with their small handful of buddies -- will twist everything we write.   And, as sure as honey draws flies -- they jumped on your post with both feet,  in an attempt to make it seem to say what I know you had no intention of saying.

 

Writing on this forum and, for years, on The Conservative Voice "Faith and Family" web site -- I quickly learned that words and phrases we normally would use -- might need to be changed due to the secular nature of such forums.

 

For many years, when writing on a secular forum, instead of saying that a Christian is indwelled by the Holy Spirit -- I will say that a Christian has the Holy Spirit living within him/her.   It means the same, but it does not give those wanting to throw stones as much ammunition.

 

So, once again, welcome to the Religion Forum.  Before entering, make sure you have put on your FULL Armor of God -- for the rocks do get thick at times.   But, He who is in us -- is greater than he who is in the rock thrower.  

 

God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,

 

Bill

Thanks for the intro. I am a veteran in deal with (or ignoring) trolls and hatemongers that spit contempt and personal attacks at people.

 

I can say I much prefer your posts & company to hatemongers that act like fourth-graders with a nasty chip on their shoulder.

I'm sure you know these types well.

 

Anyway, I suspect you are not a moderator here, ... just a regular poster with solid Christian views.

I will drop by now and then when there is time. ... I tend to do quite a lot of work on facebook, youtube, and delphiforums. ... that's aside from my wife & I counseling those who drop by the house. we are now semi-retired, ... but almost as busy as when we were in full-time in ministry.(!) ... you probably know how that works. 

 

btw, back on the original topic: Tony Pezzotta was a fine, truly bright, articulate, and humble man of GOD. It was a real honor and a blessing to meet the man some 20 years ago. [wow! how time DOES fly-by! two decades gone by!]

 

Anyway, he researched his material very thoroughly & well and his work probably contrasts the serious differences between Roman Religion [as it evolved from the 4th Century] and the actual biblical record preserved down through the ages by the Hebrews and the early church fathers [who lived long prior to Emperor Constantine of Rome]

I know for a fact that when his books and booklets were available on the book shelves of the two main Christian book stores here in Cebu, the managers of the same reported to me that a Nun would sometimes come in: buy ALL of Pezzotta's books & booklets in order to *keep them OUT of the hands* of catholics and others who might read them. I have no doubt that his literature was burned and destroyed by certain groups with an agenda to suppress THE TRUTH.

 

Well, THE TRUTH prevails, ... no matter how many people oppose or despise it.

TRUTH ENCOUNTER is a book that should be distributed worldwide. ... looks like it has been something like ten years and more since it was available on Amazon. ...6 New from $58.75

1 Collectible from $88.02

While I will admit that a number of times when Crusty or Chick complain to the forum Mod, some of my posted discussions have been moved to other forums - Politics, Misc, etc.   But none that I recall have been deleted by the Mods for being in bad taste nor for being malicious.

 ______________________

Your recall is faulty. You've had several yanked recently for being ugly.

 

And here again is one of your lies.  I haven't complained to the mods about a post in years, have only done so twice, and never about one yours.  In fact the last post I complained about was the one where Fish or whoever cross the line and was banned for whatever he said about you. 

 

If I point out that you are posting off topic, I always do it here, in the thread.

 

Let's discuss your take on me.  Show me where I say that Paul and all the Epistles should be thrown out.  Who says I haven't been in church for years? 

 

I hope your FRAN, Pastor Lemming, will stick around and contribute to this forum.  So far he has only told us how we are all trolls and that our posts constitute a cesspit.  Hoping for better.

Crusty, my Friend,

 

You declare:

 

Your recall is faulty. You've had several yanked recently for being ugly.

 

If that were true, then your recall must be better than mine.  So, please tell us which discussions or posts of mine have been removed for being, as you call it, "ugly."    I am interested to know what I wrote that got the post deleted.

 

Then, you write:

 

Let's discuss your take on me.  Show me where I say that Paul and all the Epistles should be thrown out.  Who says I haven't been in church for years?  

 

It is amazing -- that your recall is so good when you remember that some of my posts have been deleted by the Mod for being nasty.  Yet, you cannot recall the MANY times YOU have denigrated the Bible.  Would you say that is very selective (and defective) recall?

 

Bless your selective little heart!

Now, show me exactly where I have denigrated the Bible.  While you are at it, show me the post I made where I said I was divorced.  Show me the post where I claim to put my wife before God.

Bill long ago decided what to do about his critics.  He calls them his "friends,'" even when they renounce any notion of friendship with him.  He closes his smarmy little replies with a bogus blessing of their "_____________little hearts," (fill in the insulting word from may choices going back through the corpus of Bill's unctuous offerings), and he tacks onto his posts, as additional childishness, little cartoon clips intended as cuteness but coming off in context as additional insult. Bill also is fond of characterizing his "friends" as a "cabal," a choice of terminology that reflects both his persecution complex and the magnification of his distorted self-image as someone important enough as to have engendered a conspiracy against him.

Contendah, my Friend,

 

You tell Pastor Len:

 

Bill long ago decided what to do about his critics.  He calls them his "friends,'" even when they renounce any notion of friendship with him.  

 

Friendship can be bilateral or unilateral.  You may not like me, but that does not stop me, as a Christian believer, from liking you.  Therefore, in my Christian faith, you are my Friend.

 

In the Bible, God instituted both bilateral covenants which depended upon both parties being in agreement -- and He instituted unilateral covenants which were based solely upon His action.

 

So, when I call you my Friend, spit if you like -- but, as a Christian, I still see you as my Friend.

 

Then, you declare:

 

He closes his smarmy little replies with a bogus blessing of their "_____________little hearts," (fill in the insulting word from may choices going back through the corpus of Bill's unctuous offerings),

 

That is true.  Normally, I close with "God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day."  However, there are times when the actions or writings of the person I am addressing is so distasteful and often deceitful, that I cannot bring myself to say, "God bless you" -- so I close with, "Bless your silly little heart" or something similar.

 

You add:

 

and he tacks onto his posts, as additional childishness, little cartoon clips intended as cuteness but coming off in context as additional insult. 

 

Haven't you ever heard the old maxim:  "A picture is worth a thousand words"?   And, that is true. Often a graphic will illustrate the point I am making much better than all my written words.

 

Most often, I will end a writing by using a photographic scene which I find pleasing, and appropriate to the Scripture verse or passage I add to it.   The Scripture verse makes a point -- and the graphic/photo shines light upon it.  As a Christian believer, should I not do all in my power to make sure the Biblical point is brought to the forefront?

 

When I taught computer classes or gave computer seminars -- I often used photos and graphics to enhance my teachings.  Sharing God's Word is much more important that computer classes and seminars.  Therefore photos and graphics are useful tools.

 

Finally, you write:

 

Bill also is fond of characterizing his "friends" as a "cabal," a choice of terminology that reflects both his persecution complex and the magnification of his distorted self-image as someone important enough as to have engendered a conspiracy against him.

 

No, only a small handful of my Forum Friends do I include in the Cabal -- maybe about ten.  Most of my Forum Friends are just that -- Friends.

 

But, Contendah, the really sad thing is that, while most of the Cabal are atheist, agnostic, or just vanilla-flavored non-believers -- YOU and Dove tell us that you are a Christian believers -- yet, you two are the most harsh in your attacks against what I write and share.  

 

Since we all believe in the same God, we all have decided to follow the same Jesus, we all use the same Bible -- why are your disagreements so vicious?

 

As I have written many times, as long as we believe and share the same Essential Biblical Doctrines: the Bible is the inspired Written Word of God -- Jesus Christ is preexisting deity, the Son of God -- God is a Triune God: Father, Son, Holy Spirit -- salvation is by faith alone -- heaven and hell are real and the only eternal destinations for all people -- why can't we agree to disagree on some of the Non-Essential Biblical Doctrines without animosity?

 

You tell me you attend some church -- but hide with a fierceness the church you attend, as though you are ashamed of your church.  I attend a Baptist church and happily share that information.

 

You believe you were saved through baptismal regeneration.  I believe I was saved by grace through faith alone.  

 

You believe in an Amillenniall or PostMillennial eschatology -- while I believe in a PreTrib Rapture of the church and a PreMillennial Second Coming of Christ to establish His 1000 year Millennial Kingdom on earth.

 

Regardless of which of us is right -- we both will be going to heaven when we die -- or, as I believe, when Raptured -- whichever comes first.

 

At death, or the Rapture, we both will be going up together.  So, why should you get so upset at me because I believe in a PreTrib Rapture and a PreMillennial Second Coming -- and you do not?

 

So, what I am asking both you and Dove is:  Why the angry responses?

 

God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,

 

Bill

Dove, my Friend,

 

As I asked Contendah, I will ask you:

 

So, what I am asking both you and Dove is:  Why the angry (and childish) responses?

 

What is it about your church and Contendah's church that makes you both too ashamed and in need of hiding its identity?   If I were ashamed of my church affiliation -- I would find a new church.  But, to come on the Religion Forum and bash another person's Christian beliefs -- when YOU are ashamed of the church you attend, or supposedly attend -- does not make sense.

 

The only reason I can think of -- is that you do not attend any church and dislike folks who do belong and follow the teachings of Jesus Christ.

 

Of course, I realize this will bring forth another "very adult" response from you. Whatever!

 

God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,

 

Bill

Stay well and stay strong, Bill. It's obvious you have at least half-a-dozen juvenile trolls and pretty nasty people snarling and snapping at your heels nearly every time you post.

I confess you have more patience with trolls and slandering attack-artists than I do.

 

carry on as you see fit and feel led by GOD.

 

GOD bless.  

Hi Pastor Len,

 

These are the latest I have on Tony's book "Truth Encounter":

 

On Facebook Message:  May 24, 2013, Marie wrote:

 

Marie Pezzotta Foote:  And yes, we are working on an online, downloadable PDF version of my dad's book. Stay tuned.

 

But, as you know from personal experience, being a missionary is a full time job.  And, just last year is when Tony passed away.  So, I guess we just have to be patient and pray for them to have help in converting the book to PDF format on the internet.

 

Received this from Laura Harder at Pacific Church Network (previously named Conservative Baptist Association of Southern California):

 

Hi, Bill! Always great to hear from you!  I don’t have any news, yet, on the reprint of Tony’s book, but we do expect that project to go forward from our office here this year.  I don’t know if Marie and her husband have progressed on the pdf version either.  So on my end, I’m sorry I can’t help right now.  However, please keep an eye on our website or ask me again later this year, as I do expect the book to be reprinted this year. I am on Facebook: J

 

https://www.facebook.com/laura.harder3


This is the latest info I have at this time.   But, God willing, Tony's book will be available one day soon.

 

God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,

 

Bill
