Everyone, are we all done with this fellow “Pastor” Dan Long? I am.
Long first began with criticism of our stance on
house pets. His next
post was a denunciation of our posting of Glenda Lomax under False Teachers. He ended that post with, “You’ve been warned.” He calls himself a “watchman” appointed by the Lord.
He proceeded with many other posts we approved to let him have his say and so that others might be able to reason with him, thus helping him, while learning something in the process.
Have you all learned anything? Have any of you been adversely affected? Do you have any questions or doubts? Be free to ask and speak. I’d like to get your feedback.
There was no apparent gain for Dan. He staunchly continued to maintain his position in all misunderstanding, stubbornness, ignorance, arrogance, sarcasm, belligerence, and foolish defensiveness (none of those words do I use loosely or in vindictiveness but with thoughtful substance).
Dan surmised evil on our part, outright rejected any good counsel, couldn’t handle awkward or ill-advised retorts or criticisms coming his way, accused us of many things we were not guilty of, but of which he was guilty himself. Full of contradiction, he refused to give an inch on anything. This man is a lover of iniquity. He’s “free of the Law of God,” not because he has been granted grace to obey the Law but because he has trashed the Law of God as no longer valid or of worth.
Romans 1:28-32 KJV
(28) And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
(29) Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
(30) Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
(31) Without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
(32) Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
Nor did Dan Long acknowledge any reasonable answers from some at ThePathofTruth who responded with respect, kindness, understanding, and much Scripture to substantiate their arguments and doctrine. Nothing availed.
To this man, Dan Long, the Lord now says:
Matthew 7:18-23 MKJV
(18) A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruits, nor can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
(19) Every tree that does not bring forth good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.
(20) Therefore by their fruits you shall know them.
(21) Not everyone who says to Me, Lord! Lord! shall enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in Heaven.
(22) Many will say to Me in that day, Lord! Lord! Did we not prophesy in Your Name, and through Your Name throw out demons, and through Your Name do many wonderful works?
(23) And then I will say to them I never knew you! Depart from Me,
those working lawlessness!
Whom have we dealt with? Of whom do we speak?
2 Timothy 3:1-5 MKJV
(1) Know this also, that in the last days grievous times will be at hand.
(2) For men will be self-lovers, money-lovers, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
(3) without natural affection, unyielding, false accusers, without self-control, savage, despisers of good,
(4) traitors, reckless, puffed up, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,
(5) having a form of godliness, but denying the power of it; even turn away from these.
Dan has come declaring we’ve been warned. We will take the Way of the Lord as He has ordained and Dan will take the way he has chosen. As has been the case with so many others on record, we will see who is right and who is wrong, who is loved of the Lord and who is not:
Revelation 3:9-11 MKJV
(9) Behold, I give out of those of the synagogue of Satan, those saying themselves to be Jews and are not, but lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you.
(10) Because you have kept the Word of My patience, I also will keep you from the hour of temptation which will come upon all the habitable world, to try those who dwell upon the earth.
(11) Behold, I come quickly. Hold fast to that which you have, so that no one may take your crown.
Father, expose all presumption, all wickedness, for all to see. Do not delay.
Blessed be the Name of the Risen, Almighty Savior of all men, the Lord Jesus Christ, Creator of all. To Him be salvation, power, glory, honor, praise, blessing, thanksgiving, and worship forever more. Amen and Amen!
