Kim identifies heretics by three criteria — not observing Passover, celebrating Christmas, and having a cross — none of which relate to Jesus or the gospel

The False Teachings and Lies of Joo-Cheol Kim (Pastor of the Church of God) 00:51:07 – 00:52:39

Chapter 4 of Kim's book. Pages 113, 115, and 117.

Kim's three marks of a heretic: (1) not keeping Passover (page 113), (2) celebrating Christ's birth on December 25 (page 115), (3) having a cross in the church building (page 117). Mike notes the conspicuous absence of anything about Jesus — who he is, whether he died and rose, how one is saved. By Kim's definition, one can believe anything about Jesus and still be orthodox, as long as one attends the right services on the right days in a cross-free building.

What is the problem? It is common for Calvinists to argue that humanity can’t have free will because free will would necessitate a salvation based on works. Although the Bible does not make this claim, people have been subject to unfair accusations of heresy by overly zealous Calvinists.

Was Judas predestined to be lost?
