Walter J. Chantry

A sober examination of the "ear Tickling" Preaching of another gospel, that is not the Gospel. Man pleasing entertainment. Men are not warned of their damned state, they are not told their thoughts are only evil continually.

God has been disrobed of his Majestic Sovereignty and is a good old buddy that likes everyone and hopes you will like him too.
