Any gospel message that fails to expound seriously on the ministry of the baptism by and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit is false.
Calvinism demands a (scheduled) water baptism.
Ask any Calvinist about HOW it is that they think they can “time” the work of the Holy Spirit in breaking the fleshly pattern of sin through a broken and contrite repentance leading to the death of the old life followed by a renewal and rebirth in Christ.
They can’t answer that due to the trappings of a theologian with a darkened history named John Calvin.
Augustinianism requires infant baptism; that’s why Calvinist Baptists are nuttier than Presbyterian Baptists. When you remove the infant baptism Calvinism gets nuttier, because the real meaning of Calvinism or Augustinianism is that everyone not baptized as an infant is for sure non-elect and only those baptized as infants have any possibility of being elect: If you were elect, God would have made sure your parents baptized you as a baby. Remove infant baptism and Calvinism now becomes extreme hyper antinomian legalism of working hard to make sure your faith remains forever alone. Calvinism in a Baptist cont3xt also leads to antibaptism, because if you get to choose your baptism, its a work, so if baptism is necessary (and you have to choose it) its works salvation to them, but if God predestines your parents to do it to you as a baby you can’t choose it so itsjust part of your predestination. This way od thinking remains latent in all Baptists due to their Calvinistic roots ehich is why they all remain (even after leaving Calvinism) anti-baptism heretics that teach “don’t get baptized! that’s a work and will damn you to hell!”
Interesting use of cap letters there by the PP. I have watched quite a few of their vidoes off and on. I know they take a diplomatic tone as though to be respectful, but the amount of energy, time and effort they spend refuting the uncourteous and erroneous views of calvinists – they know they recieve it. So it seems odd they would insist on using cap letters to make their point defending them as not having a false Gospel. But why? Surely they could say we think most of them trust in Jesus but it is a false Gospel. It can feel like a bit of false popular debate among the likes of James White and Leighton Flowers, along the lines of WWE.
Without agape love every “gospel” message lacks the discerning power provided by Christ thru the apostle Pauls writings.
Both Christ and Paul warned against the lure of money yet neither were doxxing the use of money.
LOVE OFFERINGS ONLY… AS EACH AND EVERY GOD HONORING NEED PRESENTS ITSELF are 100% key.
Becoming bivocational (as were the disciples) is the only way to avoid temptation to lie to a congregation and to one’s self about WHY the teacher teaches.
Get rid of compromised 501c3 pre-packaged arrangements and you’ll find the chosen ones.
Baptist churches are the #1 money laundering temples of today.

I ran out of church after they promoted that Gospel Project Sunday School curriculum. I read through it and thought this is a False Gospel Project! It literally left people feeling depressed. No thank you! I’ll take the free gift of grace and be on my way, walking in the Spirit.

how does it promote depression? what does it say?
What’s interesting to me is they charge money for it. If its about teaching kids about Jesus why is it not free?

Because fear is a prerequisite to depression.
