Liars and how they use labels
is a post about how false prophets want to identify as "one of the sheep," by using labels the sheep understand as being one of themselves, yet their actual lives prove them as liars.

Help Keep us on the Internet


I am Pastor David Cox, the Webmaster
of this site. I am an independent Baptist Missionary pastor working in Mexico City since 1984. Many churches reject a fundamentalist because we do not accept the many false doctrines that modern churches have in common. We believe the Bible, and we preach and teach it. I have written over 400+ tracts and more than 60+ books which are just an extension of my pulpit ministry. All are free. Please help us keep this good material on the Internet for the world.

If you like what you see on this website, please help us with even a small donation. These sites cost me about $10 per month per site. Please donate something to help with this burden.

Note: I am a local church missionary, and you can find my home church here (davidcoxmex.com) where you can write a check to our ministry and receive a tax-deductible receipt at the end of the year.

News


An article helps pastors and Christian workers in building a Christian Reference Library to use in producing sermons and classes. I introduce the new Bible student to three free Bible programs, and offer some considerations:
(1) When you have no books on a subject.
(2) When you cannot find information of a Bible subject.
(3) When you cannot discern how much the author discusses the subject.
(4) You are searching for the wrong key word.

Note: on my site, twmodules.com, I offer 2500+ free books for Bible study, and another 500+ books on thewordmodules.com. Also, I offer on https://theword-modules.com/ Bibles for theWord, theword-dictionary-modules.com 140+ dictionaries, concordances, lexicons, etc. for theWord, and on https://www.theword-commentary-modules.com/ I offer some 500+ Bible commentaries for theWord. All of these are free for the downloading, so if you have an Internet connection and some time and space on your hard drive, you can assemble a Christian library of around 3800 works. All free.
