Exposing the false doctrine of eternal Hell

Can't help but wonder if these people have been reading Ray's materials!! but make it seem like their revelations. I even mentioned it to my mother when watching a tv pastor that she likes preaching, and said this pastor confirms what I have been telling you what Ray Smith taught about that particular statement.
Wish I could remember some of those things (ST memory...lol) but thank God more truth is being exposed. :D

I thought the same thing.. I thought surely they were someone that had read Ray's teachings. I asked one of them if they had heard of him though, but they said they hadn't.. so i found that interesting. Especially since they sounded very similar to Ray, not just in the teaching but the delivery, the way they phrased things, etc. I haven't heard a "pray tell" yet though.. lol

For the first six or seven years advertising on Google did not cost nearly as much as it does now and we would get a lot of traffic for relatively little money. ALL the TV preachers knew us and disliked us a lot.
Beginning around 2004 I was a software contractor for a man I helped get started in business. He turned into an uber Christian and got to know some of these TV preachers quite well because he donated large amounts of money to them. But he was between the rock and a hard-place. He was grateful for my help and really needed it but he was also very aware of Bible-Truths. He once told me his main guy Kennith Copeland was very unhappy with us.
So any preacher that's been around more than 15 years most likely knows what Ray taught.
But in the beginning we were the only ones advertising. Tent-Maker, Concordant Publishing and a few others were on the Internet but very few went to their sites.
Also, in the beginning there were people copying Ray's writings, some word for word. I know because I caught several of them and asked them to simply give BT credit. But in poor countries like Africa I just let it slide because at least the truth was being preached.

Speaking of Kenneth Copeland.. I've heard some very sinister testimonies when it comes to that man. Even if none of them were true, just taking him at face value, i'm not surprised to hear that he (and others like him) were very unhappy with Ray's teachings. Especially when it comes to his paper on tithes..
Regarding money and advertising, i hope you're still doing ok as far as the upkeep for BT, etc. I'd encourage anyone reading this to help, if they feel led to. Patreon has been a useful tool to donate.
