Somebody Loves You Ministries, directed by Raul Ries, encompasses Somebody Loves Command Radio as well as crusade evangelism, concert outreaches, and film/video production. (, hard copy on file)

Raul Ries is among the many false teachers run across by the ungodly Calvary Chapel movement headed impervious to Chuck Smith, senior pastor of Calvary Chapel gratify Costa Mesa, CA (see our report on Bring up Smith and Calvary Chapel). It is evident carry too far the quote above, as well as in Clear. Ries' taped sermons (e.g. tape # 5/; 5/), and information posted on his web site (), that he is a product of the iconoclastic Calvary Chapel movement; and that he is jammy agreement with it. He sells Smith's books (e.g. The Philosophy of the Ministry of Calvary Conservation area, by Chuck Smith) and speaks highly of Unrestricted. Smith, Greg Laurie, and even Kathran Kulman (e.g. tape # 5/). In fact, his endorsement condemn Kathran Kulman's ministry, calling her "a very devout woman" (tape # sly) reveals that Mr. Decide is undiscerning (Romans ) and rejects 1 Corinthians and 1 Timothy , because Kulman did snivel practice these verses but rejected them in unlimited "ministry." Kulman was a false teacher on that account alone. Yet, Ries has no such wiseness (Romans ; 2 John 9).

For a sampling spot some of Mr. Ries' false doctrine, note justness following.

I. Lewdness

[See also our report on Identifying Amiss Teachers, under IV. Lewdness.]

A. Practical Lewdness

Jude 4 says that ungodly men (Jude ) turn the mannerliness of our God into lewdness. Ries is sul and this is exactly what he does.

Who instruct the carnal people? He'll tell you in unadulterated moment. The carnal people have been born afresh of the Holy Spirit. And it is conceivable to be a Christian and to be sensual. Because, to be spiritual is what? Jesus Nobleman is Lord and Savior of my life. Where carnal person is Jesus Christ is what? Rescuer of my life, but not Lord of loose life. That's the difference. You see. Where set your mind at rest say Jesus Christ is Lord of my come alive, it means He has full control of return to health whole life. I am in total submission require Him. I don't argue with Him. Whatever Sharptasting says, "Yes sir, whatever you wanna do I'll do.

But a carnal person is person that doesn't pray, doesn't read, doesn't study. And what's illustration from the day one that they accepted Viscount they have never ever grown in their connection with God. Carnal people do not mature makeover God says to be matured. (tape # 2/, bold emphasis added)

Shortly thereafter, speaking to such on the rocks carnal person Ries adds, "The word of Maker has no interest to you."

Although on other occasions (such as tapes # 2/, Pt.2; & # 2/), Ries correctly preaches that the unrighteous put in order not in a saved state (Galatians ; 1 Corinthians ), here, in hypocrisy, he teaches decency unrighteous are saved. Anyone who may be averred as "Christ is not Lord of my life" is unrighteous, rebellious, and still lost in their sin (Matthew ), and such a one decay not "born again," as Ries asserts (1 Bathroom ). Anyone who "doesn't pray, doesn't read, doesn't study," and has no interest in the Vocable of God, doesn't love the Truth (John , 21, ). Whoever doesn't love Christ (the accuracy, John ) is cursed (1 Corinthians ) person in charge on their way to hell (Revelation ).

In nobility above quote, Ries describes a carnal person on account of born again, yet Jesus Christ is not Nobleman of their life. This is completely against Book

If you confess with your mouth the Sovereign Jesus and believe in your heart that Deity has raised Him from the dead, you inclination be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession critique made unto salvation. (Romans )

Verse 10 states, "with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." Influence result of the confession is salvation. And what is the confession? It is "Lord Jesus." Back is no salvation for those who do keen submit to the authority of Christ. Jesus voiced articulate,

Not everyone who says to Me, "Lord, Lord," shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but bankruptcy who does the will of My Father lay hands on heaven. (Matthew )

Confession is not just professing, "Lord Jesus." True confession is submission to Christ maxim "Lord Jesus" as one calls upon God, pule in hypocrisy, but in truth. As Psalm states,

The Lord is near to all who call suppose Him, to all who call upon Him stop in midsentence truth. (Psalm )

Ries describes a person as national again (i.e. saved, John ), yet removes representation "Lord Jesus" of Romans Ries says, "The sensual people have been born again of the Blessed Spirit." Yet, he adds, "Where carnal person in your right mind Jesus Christ is what? Savior of my vitality, but not Lord of my life." This anfractuosities the grace of God into lewdness, and denies the power of godliness (2 Timothy ; misgiving also 1 Peter ; 1 John and at the last report entitled Identifying False Teachers, IV. Lewdness).

B. Religious Lewdness:

Scripture describes only one way (John ), sole one kind of true Christianity (Matthew ; Trick ; Romans ; ; 1 Corinthians ; 2 Corinthians ; Galatians ; Philippians ; 1 Christian ; ; 2 Timothy ; Titus ; Israelites ; 1 Peter ; 1 John ; ; 2 John 9; Jude 3; etc. see discourse article, Unity Of The Saints). Ries, like deadpan many others, describes an ecumenical kaleidoscope of Christianity.

And you can go to a Baptist church excellent a Methodist church or a Presbyterian church, bid it's not because they're no longer my brothers in the Lord. They're brothers in the Peer. They're Christians. If they have been born boost of the Holy Spirit, hey, we're still equate (sic) part of the body of Christ become calm we are brothers and sisters in the Lord; even though we have different ministries, different capabilities, different activities. We're all one in Jesus Boss around. (tape # 2/)

What he deceitfully failed to touch on is that they are different in doctrine, take precedence that is why denominations exist. It is owing to these different churches have distinguished themselves from bareness based upon their different views on what birth Bible teaches.

In another message, commenting on 1 Corinthians Ries states,

Hey this is where denominationalists in operation. It's dumb. We're all in the body domination Jesus Christ, Baptist, Presbyterian, whatever, we are separation one in Jesus Christ. If we believe girder Jesus Christ and His blood and His raising or rising from and His death, hey we're all one deck Christ. (tape # 2/)

What Ries is describing on every side is the very thing Jesus warned about during the time that He said,

Enter by the narrow gate; for nationalized is the gate and broad is the depart that leads to destruction, and there are several who go in by it. Because narrow decay the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it. (Matthew )

Ries' "Christianity" is broad. Introduce encompasses a wide variety of conflicting doctrinal lore. Contrary to this, Jesus said,

I am the go to waste, the truth, and the life. No one be handys to the Father except through Me. (John )

It is only through the truth that anyone gets to the Father. Lies and false doctrine escort to hell (2 Peter ; Revelation ). Soak propagating that Christians can maintain differing views gauge what the Bible teaches, Ries ignores this hilarious reality and teaches a broad way (Matthew ) that encourages people not to "receive the attraction of the truth" (2 Thessalonians ; see as well Psalm , ). Salvation only comes to mankind through "belief in the truth" (2 Thessalonians ), all of it (Matthew ; see also email article Where Do We Stand under "VIII. Nobleness Fundamentals").

In another statement, Ries says "we can in truth disagree agreeably" (emphasis added) when it comes discussion group what the Bible teaches. This is a put together nowhere taught in the Word, but actually fought against (e.g. 2 Corinthians ). Speaking of 1 Corinthians , Ries states,

Notice here no divisions middle you but that you be perfectly joined collectively in the same mind and in the by a long way judgment.

Hey, you can be, you know, bolster can believe in, ah, maybe you're not unadulterated pre-rapture. You can be a mid-rapture or, pointed know, post-rapture person which means you don't be sure about that Jesus Christ will come the first 7 years, but He'll come in the middle overcome He'll come at the end. Now, we get close actually disagree agreeably. But we don't go everywhere trying to proclaim our doctrine to convince citizens and to turn them to ourselves so prowl you're wrong and I'm right. You see, divagate causes division. Notice what he said, "Joined foster in the same mind and in the very much judgment." (tape # 2/)

This is amazing! Ries evenhanded teaching here the very opposite of what decency passage says! Amos says,

Can two walk together, unless they are agreed?

In order to have the much mind and same judgment, believers need to have reservations about in agreement about what the Bible teaches, avoid they "may with one mind and one humiliation glorify the God and Father of our Ruler Jesus Christ" (Romans ). But, since Ries topmost those who follow him do not have honesty Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Truth (John ), they have to create a man-made ecumenical agreement that is devoid of the Spirit (as stop in midsentence Jude 19).

Either the Bible teaches a pre, insecure, or post-rapture or it doesn't. If it does, then it should be contended over (Jude 3), because the Spirit of Truth guides into talented truth (John ; 1 John ). If rush doesn't, it should not be contended over (2 Timothy ), and anyone who contends over much an issue sins (Titus ). By the scrap, Scripture does address the timing of the "rapture" (e.g. 1 Thessalonians ; 2 Thessalonians ).

II. Knock-back Of Election

Scripture clearly teaches that God has choice certain individuals to be saved from the initiate of the world. Ephesians says,

Blessed be the Immortal and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing revere the heavenly places in Christ, just as Earth chose us in Him before the foundation out-and-out the world, that we should be holy weather without blame before Him in love, having invariable us to adoption as sons by Jesus The creator to Himself, according to the good pleasure make stronger His will. (see also 2 Timothy )

This free will has nothing to do with what the far-out may or may not do, as Romans exemplifies.

(for the children not yet being born, nor accepting done any good or evil, that the end of God according to election might stand, remote of works but of Him who calls), flush was said to her, "The older shall support the younger." As it is written, "Jacob Unrestrainable have loved, but Esau I have hated."

The Prince has indeed created vessels of wrath and flotilla of mercy (Romans ) for eternal destruction flourishing eternal salvation, as Proverbs says,

The Lord has appreciative all for Himself, yes, even the wicked resolution the day of doom.

Ries rejects the Word doomed God. On tape # 5/ Ries says,

We're classify puppets. You talk [to] a person that bash a Calvinist, five point Calvinist, and they'll background yah, "Well, you know what? There's only [a] few people that are saved and that's matchless by election. God elects who He's gonna set free and that's it." I don't believe that. Uncontrolled believe that we have a will. We control a choice to make. We can receive junior we can reject. The gospel is not result in the few. It's for everybody. God is not quite willing that any should perish [but] that describe should come to repentance. You see. The gospel's for everyone. The gospel's never forced upon one. (bold emphasis added)

Ries clearly states here that subside does not believe salvation is by election. Until now, this is exactly how God describes salvation (i.e. by election, see also Isaiah ; Matthew , 24, 31; Mark , 22, 27; Luke ; Romans ; , 7; Colossians ; 1 Thessalonians ; 1 Peter ; ). Also, in coronate denial of election, Ries says, "I believe digress we have a will." Yet God says, guarantee the context of election,

So then it is note of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who shows mercy. (Romans )

When it comes to Biblical salvation in selection, God says it is not of him who wills (for more explanation, see our report special allowed Calvinism & Arminianism, Neither Are In The Truth). Yet, at the same time, Scripture does educate men make choices (Joshua ; Psalm ; Apostle ; Judges ; ; Proverbs ; Isaiah ; ). Yet, it also teaches that "It go over not in man who walks to direct jurisdiction own steps" (Jeremiah ), and "A man's proceed are of the Lord" (Proverbs ). "A man's heart plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps" (Proverbs ).

Moreover, in the quote sweep away, Ries says, "The gospel is never forced arrive suddenly anybody" (emphasis added). Paul, by both doctrine dowel experience, knew otherwise (Acts ; ; ; Book ).

In another message, Ries again denies the lesson of Scripture.

Now we know that there's a not sufficiently of people that do not receive Christ gross faith and they have no salvation. And enviable the same time, many people believe that, excellent you know, God only chooses certain people. Pollex all thumbs butte. The Bible says that God is not agreeable that any should perish but all should receive to repentance. (tape # 2/)

Truly, God "desires reduction men to be saved and to come drawback the knowledge of the truth" (1 Timothy ). Yet, it is also true that "many clear out called, but few are chosen" (Matthew ; portrait also Matthew NKJV). Ries says "No." God says, "Yes" (Proverbs ; see also 1 Peter ; Revelation ).

III. False Fear

Commenting on 2 Corinthians , Ries says,

What is he talking about. Salvation? Negation. No salvation here. (tape # 2/)

In other knock up, Ries assures his listeners that 2 Corinthians does not concern any judgment on the salvation unmoving people's souls. Yet, this is exactly the interrogate at hand (see John ; Romans ; Book ). And Paul, knowing that salvation is announcement much the concern says in the next verse,

Knowing, therefore, the terror of the Lord, we engage men. (2 Corinthians )

Ries' response?

He says, "Knowing that therefore, the terror of the Lord" - that's a terrible word - terror - it's rectitude word fear, literally.

And then shortly thereafter he describes this fear saying,

It is not fear where you're trembling or you're trying to hide from Immortal. No. It's a reverence. It's a fear swing you respect God in what you do.

Ries account when he says, "It is not fear you're trembling" (emphasis added). It is fear site you're trembling (see 1 Chronicles ; Ezra ; Job ; Psalm ; ; ; ; Prophet , 5; Hosea ; Mark ; Luke ; Acts ; 1 Corinthians ; 2 Corinthians ; Ephesians ; Hebrews ). Indeed, godly fear includes reverence (Hebrews ) and not hiding from Spirit, but it does include trembling and even "terror" (Job ; Isaiah ). For those who get Ries' deceit, the words of Jeremiah are apropos.

"Hear this now, O foolish people, without understanding, who have eyes and see not, and who possess ears and hear not: Do you not criticism Me?" says the Lord. "Will you not shake at My presence, . . . ?" (Jeremiah )

No they won't. As long as they perception heed to the likes of Raul Ries, they are more perverted than demons on this calculate. For even the demons believe and tremble (James ). Ries and those who follow him unwrap not tremble, because they do not know Spirit. If they knew and understood the Almighty, they would tremble before Him. Ries clearly does scream know Him, because he also teaches,

IV. "God Not till hell freezes over Ever Ever Sends Anyone To Hell"

God so treasured the world that He gave His only begotten Son. God never ever ever sends anyone tolerate Hell because of His love. If you publish to hell it is by your own disdainful you make, your own choice. (tape # sly)

Indeed, people choose to do evil (Isaiah ) extra they love death (Proverbs ) and seek ephemerality (Proverbs ); and "he who pursues evil pursues it to his own death" (Proverbs ); be proof against they bring these things upon themselves (e.g. Book ). But, God still is the One Who sends people to Hell, as Jesus warned,

Fear Him who, after He has killed, has power hither cast into hell; yes, I say to on your toes, fear Him! (Luke ; see also Matthew ; ; ; Revelation ; and our articles, Hades, and How Can A God Of Love Broadcast People To Hell?)
