SONS of LIBERTY Radio with Bradlee Dean
They Can Preach Unrepentant Sinners Go To Heaven, But You Better Not Tell Them They Are Going To Hell, Hypocrites!
When Funeral Pulpits Promise Heaven Without Repentance
Summary
The Episode's Central Claim
Bradley Dean centers the episode on his objection to funeral preaching that assures heaven for people whose lives, in his view, showed no repentance or Christian fruit. He argues that many church leaders avoid the subject of judgment while confidently declaring that nearly everyone who dies is saved. Throughout the program, he contrasts that practice with passages he interprets as teaching a narrow path, moral accountability, and consequences for dying in sin. His criticism is directed especially at ministers he calls hirelings, whom he accuses of comforting audiences at the expense of biblical doctrine. The episode repeatedly returns to the question of whether a funeral message should reflect the deceased person's visible life and stated faith.
Judgment in Scriptural Context
A major portion of the monologue addresses the phrase "judge not" and the host's belief that it is commonly removed from its context. He reads Matthew 7 as a warning against hypocritical judgment rather than a prohibition against all moral discernment. He also cites Romans 2, John 7:24, and several passages from the epistles to argue that believers are instructed to examine conduct, teaching, doctrine, and spiritual fruit. Dean emphasizes that a person should first confront wrongdoing in his or her own life before correcting another person. In his presentation, righteous judgment must be rooted in Scripture rather than personal preference or selective interpretation.
Repentance, Law, and the Cross
Dean distinguishes between repenting merely out of fear of hell and repenting because a person recognizes that he or she has violated God's moral law. He presents the Ten Commandments as a means of revealing sin and describes the law as a schoolmaster that drives people toward Christ. According to his explanation, Jesus bears the sinner's guilt at Calvary, while the Holy Ghost brings conviction of sin, righteousness, and judgment. He says obedience should then flow from gratitude rather than from a simple attempt to escape punishment. The discussion also criticizes denominational interpretations that, in his view, add to or take away from plain biblical doctrine.
Hell and Moral Accountability
The host repeatedly affirms his belief in a literal hell and argues that denying it contradicts the teaching of Jesus. He cites Luke 12, Luke 16, Revelation 21, and other passages while presenting hell as the consequence of unrepented sin rather than the primary object of fear. In the account of the rich man and Lazarus, he emphasizes the rich man's recognition of torment only after death and his desire to warn his brothers. Dean also argues that actions cannot be separated from the person who chooses them, rejecting the saying that God loves the sinner while hating only the sin. These theological conclusions are presented as the host's scriptural interpretation and are not independently verified within the transcript.
Funeral Messages and Spiritual Fruit
To illustrate his concern, Dean describes a hypothetical young man killed during a drug deal at a strip club and asks what message is conveyed when a minister preaches that person into heaven. He contends that such assurances may encourage surviving friends to believe that conduct, repentance, and faith are irrelevant. He repeatedly invokes the teaching that people are known by their fruits and compares good and corrupt trees as images of spiritual character. The host also states that no minister can simply pronounce another person saved and cites the instruction to examine whether one is in the faith. His larger argument is that compassion at a funeral should not require abandoning what he understands Scripture to teach.
A Final Appeal to Test Teaching
The episode concludes with an appeal to rely on the Word of God rather than personalities, institutions, celebrity conversions, or comforting religious traditions. Dean opens the program by questioning highly publicized conversions and later applies the same demand for evidence to ministers, churches, and individual believers. He urges listeners to search the Scriptures for themselves, test doctrine, distinguish between the holy and the profane, and refuse teachings he considers counterfeit. The recurring promotional segments invite listeners to support the ministry, attend its online church service, schedule events, and use related Christian media resources. Dean closes by calling for allegiance to Christ over human opinion and by linking professed love with action.

Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: Celebrity conversions that just don't line up with Scripture. Dr. D. James Kennedy stated, "The vast majority of people who are members of churches in America today are not Christians. I say that without the slightest fear of contradiction. I base it on the empirical evidence of 24 years of examining thousands of people." In the early 2000s, I was the drummer in a band called Junkyard Prophet. We were voted the second-best unsigned band in the country, behind a band called P.O.D., which became an MTV favorite. And according to ReverbNation, we were in fact the number one Christian band in the country.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: Friends, we worked with Geffen Records and Warner Brothers and were endorsed by major musical-instrument companies on a global basis. After touring the nation, we played with some of the biggest names in the Christian scene, including Bride, Guardian, Disciple, Nouveaux, and others. We also played with major acts in the secular scene, including Drowning Pool, Creed, and Sick Puppies. I am bringing my firsthand experience to this topic. Before I get started, I want to address those who want to twist Scripture in an attempt to protect the gods they have created in their minds, such as favorite musicians, actors, and others.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: When they suggest that I am not to judge, I remind you that I am using the Judge's Word to make judgments. I am judging with righteous judgment and doing so out of love. Furthermore, I would add that if you are not zealous against error, it may be because you are not zealous for the truth. Yesterday, on my radio show, I highlighted celebrities who have been elevated to modern-day Christian stardom such as Kanye West, who was held up as a trophy on the heretical Joel Osteen's platform for his supposed conversion. You thought the political scene was filled with theater. Friends, the Lord warned us about both.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: This novice, unacquainted and unskilled in the Word of God, Kanye West, stated that he was the greatest artist that God ever created. He said, "I told you about my arrogance and cockiness already. Now the greatest artist that God has ever created is now working for Him." Folks, is this guy kidding me? I did not know it was about Kanye West anymore. Kanye was praising himself. Does someone want to give this guy a reality check on what talent truly is? Then again, the bar has been lowered so far that we can understand why he is deceived into believing that he is what he wants to believe that he is.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: First Timothy 3:6-7 says, "Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil. Moreover, he must have a good report of them which are without, lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil." Friends, you are to prove those who call themselves Christians. First Thessalonians 5:12 says, "And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you." Case in point: established churches up until the 1900s used to prove their members for one to three years before accepting their professions of faith. Friends, Kanye wants to evangelize America's youth with his music.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: That is a good initiative, but he first needs to be a partaker of the fruit and receive the understanding the Lord gives in all things. Time will show whether he is genuine or not. I bring up this point because others have claimed conversions, including Bono from U2, Brian "Head" Welch from Korn, Alice Cooper, Bob Dylan, and others. Friends, they return to the vomit from which they claimed to have been converted. How does that work? It does not. For example, Brian "Head" Welch claimed conversion but rejoined the band and the lifestyle from which he claimed to have been converted. I know - magic. Let me tell you how that works, friends.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: By feeding upon the hirelings of the day and refusing to conduct your own due diligence by searching the Scriptures for yourselves.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: According to Brian's worldview, you are to yield your... [The sentence is cut off in the source transcript.]
Speaker 2 - Program Announcer / Prerecorded Intro Voice: Here we go. Revolutionary soldier, judge, legislator, educator, and schoolmaster to America, Noah Webster, said: "The religion which has introduced civil liberty is the religion of Christ and His apostles. This is genuine Christianity. And to this we owe our free constitutions of government. The moral principles and precepts found in the Scriptures ought to form the basis of all of our civil constitutions and laws." He continued: "All the evils which men suffer from vice, crime, ambition, injustice, oppression, slavery, and war, proceed from their despising or neglecting the precepts contained in the Bible. Our citizens should early understand that the genuine source of correct Republican principles is the Bible, particularly the New Testament or the Christian religion." The Sons of Liberty is a politically neutral organization. We believe that the Christian ethic has provided the principles on which this nation was founded. It is our belief that these principles provide not only the foundation and framework for American government, but are also essential to the maintenance of a fair and just society. All program content is based on a Christian biblical worldview. One of you said to me recently, "Rock the boat." Well, ladies and gentlemen, I want to tell you that I am the boat.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: Hello, friends, as well as scoffers, atheists, skeptics, lunatics, weirdos, and assorted bad guys. And, of course, all of you good guys and girls out there, welcome to the Sons of Liberty. You have yours truly, Mr. Bradley Dean. Folks, I want to get to something that we didn't get to yesterday. The reason I am saying that is because, first of all, I want you to remember this. Listen carefully. I want to say this slowly. The Lord never sends any man who does not first trouble consciences. Let me say that again. The Lord will never send a man into a situation without first troubling men's consciences. Why do I say that? Well, it's true. Conscience means with knowledge.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: Since we do not know everything, we are going to be troubled by the revelation the Holy Ghost, given by our Creator, means to bestow upon us. But if we are hungry and thirst for righteousness, He promises to fill us. And that is exactly what He will do. But oftentimes when that happens, the Bible says that when the Word comes, it comes "in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Ghost" - much affliction, but with joy of the Holy Ghost. So listen again, the Lord never sends a man who does not first trouble consciences. Spurgeon, the Prince of Preachers, was exactly right. What we have become accustomed to today is the exact opposite. The hireling gets to the pulpit.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: We are talking about the counterfeits here. The hireling goes to the pulpit. John 10:12 describes him. He is ordained by man, not ordained by God - ordained by the devil, more like it. And what do they do? They get up there. They first start by telling everybody a joke to break the ice. That's not our job. As a preacher, we have a very serious job and we need to take it very seriously, holding to the doctrines of the Word of God and that alone and walking in the light that we have. I am saying this for a reason. Did you know that the Bible says in Hosea 6:5, "Therefore have I hewed them by the prophets."
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: That applies to all of us because the church is built upon the apostles and prophets, as Ephesians 2:20 says. The Lord sends the prophets to hew them by the words upon which the foundation is laid. We lay the axe to the root of the compromised, carnal tree so that what grows may come from the seed planted by Christ. The Lord says, "I have slain them by the words of my mouth, and my judgments are as the light that goeth forth." Well, someone will say, Bradley, that's the Old Testament. I know, I know. But the New Testament is the fulfillment of the Old and the New Testament message is, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand." What happens if we do not repent, friends?
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: Well, we go to where sinners go. I am moving to John 8:24. Listen carefully. Jesus said, "I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins." You will go where sinners go. Where are they going to go, people? Come on, you can say it. They'll go to hell. I am told that 60 percent of the people who call themselves evangelical Christians in America today do not even believe that there is a place called hell. In other words, they say they believe, but they disbelieve what Christ taught. Just think about that. And what do they preach? Well, what they preach, friends, is an ungospel. It's not a gospel.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: It's contrary to the gospel. It is interesting that, when we go to a funeral today, we see the hirelings of the day preach unrepentant sinners into heaven. They never repented, though the message is, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand." They've never been found in Christ. They've never brought forth the fruits of repentance. And yet somehow or another, the hirelings preach unrepentant sinners into heaven. Listen to me. Let me ask you a question: Have you ever been to a funeral where the man at the pulpit was faithful enough to preach the truth according to the fruits of the man or woman in that box? Have you ever heard that person preached into hell?
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: The answer is almost certainly no. Why would you say that? Are you telling me that a majority of people are going into heaven? The Bible says, "Few there be that find it," and that the way is strait, narrow, and difficult. Isn't that interesting? Folks, this is something we need to put before our eyes. Again, I ask: have you ever been to a funeral where the individual at the pulpit preached that the deceased died in his or her sins? And isn't it interesting that even for me to raise that question, which is completely biblical, we're told that you better not tell them that they're going to hell, but they can preach them into heaven regardless of whether they lived unrepentant lives.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: They bore the fruit hanging from the branches of their father, the devil - John 8:44, and John 10:10, the one who comes to steal, kill, and destroy. But again, they can preach everybody into heaven. But when you judge them according to the Word of God and their lives do not line up with those who go to heaven, somehow you are called judgmental for doing so. Again, keep in mind, 60 percent of the people in this country that call themselves Christians call Jesus a liar. They call Him a liar. They say they do not believe what Jesus said, but yet they say they are believers. That is a contradiction. Let me ask you a question. Is God a man that He should lie? What do the Scriptures tell us?
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: Absolutely not. How many times have I brought up to you, my listeners, my radio family, that you can clearly see in America that the report card given to us by the church is what we see in the culture. Does it look like we are becoming a more holy nation, a more righteous nation, a more upright nation? Or are we a nation that continuously promulgates and promotes sin, which is a reproach to any nation? Let me tell you this. Psalm 9:16-17 tells us, "The Lord is known by the judgment which he executeth." That is what is happening today.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: The wicked - those who know to do right but do it not, and those who say they are believers but do not believe the Word of God - are ensnared in the work of their own hands. Is it not interesting how the good guys today, somehow cannot do the right thing while the bad guys can. No, America is going backwards, not forwards, but then it tells us in Psalm 9:17, the wicked shall be turned into hell. Is that what we see becoming of our nation? In spite of that, 60 percent of the 81 percent who identify as Christians say that there's no such thing.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: Well, listen, if you do not believe in the afterlife Jesus warned about, you can get a taste of it right now because the Lord is turning this country into the hell that it deserves. Is that right? The wicked shall be turned into hell and all the nations that forget God. Stay with me on this thought, friends, because we are going to milk this one today.

If you are looking for a church that preaches the truth without compromise from the inerrant Word of God and the power of the Holy Spirit, then look no further than joining us every Sunday at 9 a.m. Central Time on the Sons of Liberty Radio live on Rumble.
Speaker 5 - Dave Krieger, Testimonial Voice: This is Dave Krieger, host of the Krieger Files and station manager of WEAG-FM, serving Starke, Florida, and the surrounding areas. Bradley Dean and Sons of Liberty Radio are a regular feature on this radio station as Bradley's ministry has touched tens of thousands of people who need to know the truth and know the Father and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. For that, and for Bradley Dean, we are thankful. Keep up the Lord's work, my friend.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: Welcome back again to the Sons of Liberty. Here is the phone number if you want to call in. 281-845-4704. 281-845-4704. I was just laying out for you, candidly, the fruit of a nation that turns its back on the living God. How the Lord said that He would turn that nation into hell. How many times have you heard people in passing saying this country is going to H-E-double-hockey-sticks? Keep in mind that many of those same people are apathetic and tolerant toward the evils they allow, which shows that they are not on the side of right but are on the side of wrong for submitting themselves to it. How many times have you heard, "This country is going to H-E-double-hockey-sticks"?
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: Of course you have heard it. And is it happening? Yes, it is falling under the judgments of God. "Decadence follows luxury," as John Adams said. And when the church fails to be the moral compass of society, this is what it is going to become. This is a nation of people who do nothing. This is a nation of people that call themselves believers but do not believe. If they did believe, they would have purged the leaven out of the lump a long time ago and they would not tolerate the things they tolerate. Why? Because they would love the Lord. By this we know that we love the children of God when we love God and keep His commandments. And this is the love of God that we keep His commandments.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: That is in 1 John 5. It is also found in 2 John and John 14:21. Okay? I am saying this, friends, to highlight what the Word tells us because I am a stickler for the Word. Period. I am going to hold to the Word. I have my feet on the Rock and I'm going to hold to it. Right now, I want you to see what it is and why your country is being turned into hell. And I was highlighting during the first segment that 60 percent of those who call themselves Christians - who, I say, are counterfeits - say there is no such thing as hell. What they are doing is basically calling Jesus Christ a liar. How many times, from the Old Testament to the New Testament, have we been warned about hell? Oh my goodness.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: By my last count, 55 times. But I guess the Lord - I speak as a man - lied to us 55 times, while the hypocrites somehow stand true and God is made a liar. That is what they would have you believe. Shame on them. Dangerous, dangerous business, my friends. Dangerous business. Dangerous business. Last week, somebody said to me, "Again, who are you to judge?" You know, and I say back, "Do not twist Scripture the way Satan twisted Scripture." Because they say, well, Bradley, you know, we heard from the hirelings in the pulpit, "Thou shalt not judge." Well, I know what the problem is, and I am going to tell you. It is because you are not taking the time to know the Word of God for yourself.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: You are listening to a guy from the pulpit that has never been converted, nor does he bring forth the fruits of repentance. Second Corinthians 7:10-11. Is that speculative? Absolutely not. It is absolutely 100 percent true. Now, if you look at Isaiah 42:21, you look at Psalm 40:7, you look at Hebrews 8:10 and Hebrews 10:7, we can see that the law of God has been written on our hearts. You can also see that in conversion in Ezekiel 36 and John 3:3, and again in 2 Corinthians 7:10-11. It is also interesting. Another thought just came to me.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: When we look at Isaiah 8:20, it says if they speak not according to the law and to the testimony - see also Revelation 19:10 - it is because there is no light in them. What is he saying? They have never been converted. That is why there is no light. But let me go back and let me highlight something that I brought up last week and then let me build upon it, line upon line and precept upon precept, as to what America needs to understand. We are called the light of the world because of the fact that we show zero tolerance for anything that kicks against Christ's sacrifice, while upholding the law and teaching the fear of God.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: It is both mercy and condemnation, depending on which side you are on: repentant or unrepentant. But let me go over to Matthew 7. What does it say? It says, "Judge not, that ye be not judged." Keep this in context, people, so that we have a proper balance. I am holding to the Judge's Word. I am making reference to the Judge's Word. Now listen, "Judge not, that ye be not judged." Jesus said this in Matthew 7. "For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again." Then He says - speaking to whom? That is the question I want you to answer. Who was Jesus speaking to?
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: Because people have not taken the time to ask whom He was addressing. They are parroting the hireling, not understanding that they are judging themselves. They are increasing the condemnation and the wrath of God upon themselves for allowing their ears to take heed to someone who is taking it out of context. Jesus says, "Why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?" Whom is He addressing? He is talking to the religious hypocrites who did not practice what they preached. Listen. Then He said in verse 4, "Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?"
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: Whom is He addressing, people? The unrepentant. Then He says, "Thou hypocrite." What is a hypocrite? A pretender - someone who claims to be what he or she is not. Then He said, "First cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye." Let us hold things in context, people and quit cherry picking Scripture to appease our consciences while allowing the hirelings to mislead us. That is not a good plan, and it is not good for anybody, neither temporally nor eternally. Okay. What is the first thing Jesus says immediately after that?
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: He teaches them judgment, and He says, "Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you." That is exactly what hypocrites do. It is exactly what the pretenders do. They claim to be the children of God, yet they do not even know His Word. They do not keep it in context. What do they do, being unconverted? Like carnal men, they war against the things of the Spirit because the two are at enmity with one another. Let me take you over to Romans 2, just to verify, to reaffirm and confirm the position of Scripture, which is not philosophy, it is doctrine. There is a big difference. Okay.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: What does it say? "Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things." Whom is He addressing? The unrepentant. "But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things." Then He says, "And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?" He is speaking to those who do not practice what they preach. Those are the people He is calling hypocrites, friends. Okay.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: Let me solidify a couple more things here concerning Romans 2, because you need to hear this. Okay. He teaches us, friends, "Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? Thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal?" Do you see what He is saying here? Friends, do you see what He is saying here? "Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery?" He asks them unrepentant individuals who are not practicing what they preach. Do you commit adultery? "Thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege?" Do you understand?
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: So again, what we need to do is keep in context as to whom the Lord is addressing when He speaks about judgment, friends, because we make judgment calls all day long. I also think it is important that people understand that when I said that America has been called a light to the world by other nations, it is because of our zero tolerance for anything that offends God because of our judgments. If anybody takes the time to understand like it talks about in the New Testament, namely in the epistles, it is interesting to know that we are of the seed of David. That is also found in the book of Romans, including chapters 1 through 4. If we are, we need to look to that seed. What did David do?
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: The Lord set David as a light to bring judgment upon unrighteous nations. People, that is the Davidic branch of righteousness that the Lord established. It is exactly who we are. Let me show you this: Deuteronomy 4:6, going back to the Old Testament and then to the New to show its fulfillment. What does it say? It says in Deuteronomy 4:6, "Keep therefore and do them," referring to the moral law, for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear all these statutes, and say, 'Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.' Americans, you lost that a long time ago. You lost it a long time ago. I am going to continue to go down this road.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: We are going to get to the point of why every time we go to funerals, we hear the hireling preach them into heaven even though they were unrepentant sinners. It is not scriptural. We are going to set that straight. SonsofLibertyRadio.com.

Speaker 8 - Quotation Montage Announcer: Every time we turn our heads the other way, when we see the law flouted, when we tolerate what we know to be wrong, when we close our eyes and ears to the corrupt because we're too busy or too frightened, when we fail to speak up and speak out, we strike a blow against freedom and decency and justice. - Robert Kennedy. "Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same. Or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free."
Speaker 8 - Quotation Montage Announcer: Martin Luther, the great reformer, stated, "When you get to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hold on."

Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: Welcome back to the Sons of Liberty, folks. I know I am a machine gun of information. But I will tell you, this one has been building up for some time. I am talking about unbelievers who call themselves believers. They are counterfeits; they are the goats. I will get to that in a moment. Sixty percent of them would have you believe that there is no such thing as hell. So in other words, they are calling the One in whom they say they believe a liar and they want you to accept their word for it. And yet all they exhibit is hypocrisy.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: Titus 1:16 says, "They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate," which proves to me that they are not saved. Do you understand? Okay. So again, you have annihilationists out there. That is what they are called: annihilationists. You know who Kirk Cameron is, right? He is an annihilationist. He is the one out there teaching people that there is no such thing as hell. He is the man who said he was saved. He is out preaching and all of a sudden he starts preaching this heresy that stands in contradiction to the Word of God. Okay. I want to make something clear before we move on.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: You need to understand and I brought this up before, but I am going to bring it up again because it is vitally important that you understand it. I am not preaching that hell, as a consequence, is the reason you repent before God. That is unscriptural, and you hear it all day long. It is unscriptural. What am I talking about? We repent because we see how we have violated God's moral law. See Exodus 20 and Acts 20:21. And when we go through the Ten Commandments, we see that we have violated His law and we have broken it a thousand times over and we need a Savior from our sin. Sin is the transgression of God's law. So every time I violate God's moral law, I am committing an act of sin.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: And the Bible tells us in Romans 6:23 that the end of sin is death. Therefore, I need a mediator. I need someone to stand in between me and the wrath of God, because I transgressed His law. Jesus steps into my place. He takes my sin upon Himself at Calvary, and that is the only sin He ever had. He gives me His righteousness upon repentance as I am driven to the cross of Christ by that law. And as I go to the cross, I repent of my sin that put Christ up on the cross. And thereby I receive the Holy Ghost, who works the conviction of sin, righteousness and judgment to bring me to Christ in the first place, John 16:8. Okay. And why do I do what I do?
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: I live unto Him who died for me, out of gratitude. I am thankful for what He did for me because I did not deserve it. On the other hand, those who have been forgiven much, like me, love much. And out of gratitude, we walk and we follow Christ and hold to His Word. When men begin to add to or take away concerning the doctrines, they create denominations. We do not need denominations. I am going to tell you why: because we already have 45,000 of them worldwide in Christendom. I want to tell you that every one of them is in error. Why? Because denominations are caused by man's interpretation rather than what plain doctrine teaches.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: We are to have the same mind, the same heart and the same judgment. 1 Corinthians 1:10. And when you look at Ephesians 4, we are to follow Him. Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." And He said it is going to be difficult. But we keep pressing into the kingdom of God as we hold to Christ and His uncompromising, unadulterated Word. Okay. So again, I want to make clear that we all understand. I am not saying that we repent merely because of hell, as you so often hear. This is prevalent in the church today. The common message is, "You had better repent, because if you do not, you are going to hell." Wait a second. Why do I need to repent?
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: I am going to tell you what they do not tell you. You need to repent because you violated God's moral law and look at what God the Father did on our behalf by sending Jesus Christ to die for our guilt and our transgressions. Hell did not do that for us. Jesus did that for us. Much of what you hear today, even in Zionism, says that either you support modern-day Rothschild Israel, which is not Israel of God, or you are not going to heaven at all. Wait a second. They remove Jesus and put geographic Israel in His place. Do you understand? You have to be extremely careful of that. It is called replacement theology.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: And I want to tell you something, people such as Jack Hibbs that are preaching replacement theology, the very thing he claims to preach against is the very thing that he is guilty of doing. That is exactly what he is doing. Okay. I do not want to get too far off base here, but I want you to listen to this and we are going to move to the next point. When you look at Luke 12:4, what does it say? Jesus said, "I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do." Then, in verse 5, Jesus says, "I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear Him, which after He hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear Him."
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: He did not say to fear hell. He said that hell is the consequence of unrepented sin. He said, "Fear God." Okay. Somebody needed to hear that. I am glad we got that out of the way. Now let us go to the next point. Because again, I want you to see this. Ezekiel 44:23 says - church, listen to me - "And they shall teach my people the difference between the holy and profane." Profane means irreverence toward the things of God. Okay. He is telling us to hold to the Word of God. When I go to 2 Chronicles 19:10, which just came to mind, what does it say? It says that the Lord is teaching us judgment.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: "And what cause soever shall come to you of your brethren that dwell in their cities, between blood and blood, between law and commandment, statutes and judgments, ye shall even warn them that they trespass not against the Lord, and so wrath come upon you and upon your brethren: this do, and ye shall not trespass." What is He teaching us? Justice in judgment. He is teaching us justice. That is what the law of God is for, friends. It is an instructor of babes. It instructs us to know a more excellent way. Can you imagine this country without any laws? People - the bad guys - are working on it. It is getting worse, is it not? You would have chaos without law, right?
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: Well, what happens when you have a spiritual law fulfilled by Christ? What do you have? A righteous law that produces spiritual freedom. 2 Corinthians 7:10. Read it when you get a moment. Now listen to this. When I go over to Luke - I am sorry, John 8:24 - in fulfillment of the Old, what does Jesus say here? Again, I am sorry; I have the wrong number. I am going to John 7:24. I want you to see it again for yourself before I relate it to today's topic. What does the Lord say here? This is Jesus speaking in John 7:24. He says, "Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment." Well, did he do that? As our exemplar, did He teach us to judge righteously? Constantly.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: He constantly showed, exhibited, and taught us justice in judgment. How many times, in Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, did Jesus rebuke the Pharisees? He said, "Woe unto you." Who can save you from the damnation of hell? Come on, church, you can say it. He was condemning them. Why? Because they were living under their own condemnation by the fact that they were not taking heed to Christ, the promised one that was foretold in the Old as He fulfilled it in the New while standing right before them. They denied Him. They rejected the counsel of God against themselves. And what happens when you reject the counsel of God against yourselves?
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: Well, you deserve the hell that you are going to receive, right? That is exactly what is going to happen. Folks, how many people are in hell today because they did not take heed and rejected the counsel of God against themselves. They wanted to cherry-pick what they believed and what they did not believe according to what they were told, rather than searching the Scriptures for themselves, John 7:17, 2 Timothy 2:15. Now, let me show you this, because when I go to 1 Corinthians 6:9, which just came to mind, I want you to see this. And again, before I drive home this message, you need to see a couple of things here.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: I am at 1 Corinthians 6, what does the Bible tell us in 1 Corinthians 6:9 here? It says, "Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God." What is the Lord teaching us? Do not be deceived, neither fornicators - sex before marriage - nor idolaters, anybody that serves anything or anybody before the living God - nor adulterers, friends with the world, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites - shall inherit the kingdom of God. What is He teaching us? Judgment. He is teaching us righteous judgment, right? Yeah, come on. Come on, we can say this. And then when we look at Galatians 5:19-21, now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are adultery, fornication.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: These are unrepentant fruits: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like, of which I tell you before, as I have told you in times past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. So if they do not inherit the kingdom of God, then where do they go? What do they inherit? I am asking because this is how simple it is, and how ridiculous it is that anyone would take heed to the contrary. What happens in the natural, friends? If you break the law, you go to the penitentiary - penitence, right?
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: A place associated with repentance. Man-made wardens and prisons are not the spiritual model; I am simply giving you an analogy. What happens when you break civil law? You have to pay; there are consequences. So, folks, where did we learn that? Well, the law is perpetual, it is always at work. We were taught it in the natural by the living God through the spiritual - first the spiritual, then the natural. And that is what we are dealing with. I want to show you one more thing. I am going to give it to you in just a couple moments here, friends, as far as a quick education. Concerning Luke 16, the man who ended up in hell and then understood that this was not a game.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: But after the fact, he wanted to go warn people of the place he had inherited. We will be right back in one moment. SonsofLibertyRadio.com, SonsofLibertyMedia.com.
Speaker 4 - Prerecorded Sons of Liberty Promo Announcer: Do not have a place to go to church on Sunday? Then come join us at the Sons of Liberty and Bradley Dean. For many people, finding a home church that preaches the gospel in accordance with Scripture can be difficult. Many churches today have become self-help centers and very humanistic without pointing people to Christ and the cross that all genuine Christians must bear, just as our Lord did. If you are looking for a church that preaches the truth without compromise from the inerrant Word of God and the power of the Holy Spirit, then look no further than joining us every Sunday at 9 a.m. Central Time on the Sons of Liberty Radio live on Rumble.
Speaker 9 - Sam, Testimonial Voice: This is Sam. Are you tired of listening to radio show hosts, public speakers, do-nothing politicians, and weak and effeminate men who do nothing but talk and talk about the issues we face in our country today, resolving nothing? So am I, and that's why I listen to Bradley Dean in the Sons of Liberty Radio Show. Bradley's message of hope and resolve is not only broadcast through the airwaves; it is also something that he takes to the enemy's front door with a vehement passion. Believe me, I know. I have witnessed it every step of the way as his son for the last 18 years.
Speaker 9 - Sam, Testimonial Voice: I don't know about you, but in our country today, we need men, now more than ever, who are willing to take action and not hide behind the safety of a Facebook post from a fake-name social-media account. Bradley demonstrates his words through actions by preaching nationwide at churches, prisons, high schools, event centers, college campuses, and so much more. Step up to the plate and be the man or woman God called you to be and join Bradley Dean and others in this fight. Do it for our generation and future generations alike.

Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: Oh my goodness. We have a lot to cover. One of the things we hear - and I think it is important to address - is this: "God loves the sinner, but He hates the sin." Yes, I know. Guess where you heard that, friends. Oh my goodness. Oh my goodness. "God loves the sinner, but He hates the sin." Yeah, yeah. Is that not interesting? How can the act be separated from the actor? God is not merely angry against sin abstracted from the sinner, but against the sinner himself. Who ends up in hell? The sin or the sinner? The one who made the choice to sin.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: [The following scripture reference is unclear in the source transcript.] What is sad is that some people have labored hard to set up this ridiculous and unscriptural and absurd abstraction and would fain make it appear that God is angry at the sin yet not at the sinner. What - God hates the theft but loves the thief? Really? Wow. Psalm 97:10. He abhors adultery but is pleased with the adulterer? Folks, this is supreme nonsense. Sin has no moral character apart from the sinner. The act is nothing apart from the actor. The very thing that God hates and disapproves of is not the mere event - the thing done in distinction from the doer - but the doer himself.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: The one who made the choice to do it. When someone commits a crime with the weapon, it is not the weapon thrown in jail. No, it is the person that made the choice to use the weapon to commit the crime. Folks, it grieves and displeases the Lord that a rational moral agent under His government should array himself against his own God and Father and against all that is right and just in the universe. See, this is the thing that offends God. The sinner himself is the direct and only object of His anger. The Bible says God is angry with the wicked every day. Psalm 7:11. Not the abstract sin.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: Scripture says, "If he turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready" - not to strike the sin, but the sinner because it is the wicked person who has done the abominable thing. This, I say, is the only doctrine of either the Bible or common sense on the subject. So let us get past that one. Let me show you Luke 16. In Luke 16, we look at the rich man who is clothed in purple and fine linen. Then there was a beggar named Lazarus. When we go down to verse 23, the rich man finds himself in hell. "And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom."
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: The man in hell cried, "Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame." He did not believe in hell until he got there. But Abraham said, "Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things; but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented." Now listen carefully. "And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence." Then, in verse 27, the man in hell said, in effect, "This place is real. Father, I know it now. I am in torment. Send Lazarus to my father's house, for I have five brethren, that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment." What does verse 29 say? This is the New Testament, people: "They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them." He said, "Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent." But what did he say in response? Verse 31: "If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead." How has that lawless, Moses-less preaching been working out for you, America? Understand that it is the law that serves as the schoolmaster to bring men unto Christ.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: But that is supposedly all a thing of the past. See, folks, you do not have to destroy the wicked because the wicked are destroying themselves. And again, remember who the wicked are. They are those who know to do right and do it not. They are the ones that reject the counsel of God against themselves. And they say, "There is no such thing." I know, right? Now this is what I want to lay out for you. How is it that a 20-year-old kid goes into a strip club, gets shot to death in a drug deal that went bad, has a funeral, and all his friends come and see his corpse lying there?
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: And the hireling at the pulpit has the audacity to preach into heaven an individual who brought forth nothing but evil and wicked fruit in his life? You had better get this right because the way to death is wide and broad. That is exactly what this is. Furthermore, what message did that hireling just give to the friends of the one that just got killed in a strip club concerning a drug deal that went bad? Is this not what is prevalent in America today? Oh, absolutely it is. That is why you need to find a different place to go. If this is the nonsense you are hearing, I have encountered this firsthand. You know, Jesus calls them "blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel."
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: Who am I talking about? Those blind guides that say it is not for us to say who goes to hell yet somehow they can tell all of us who goes to heaven. And according to them, everybody is going to heaven. Not scriptural, friends. Furthermore, it is not for any man to tell anybody that they are saved. Yes, it is scriptural for us to examine our salvation or whether we be in the faith or not. 2 Corinthians 13:5. These hirelings, for some reason, kick against those kinds of Scriptures. And I want to tell you why because they want you to succumb to their heresies and become subject to their heretical teachings. Read 1 Timothy 4.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: Hey, folks, the Bible tells us concerning the kid killed in a strip joint during a drug deal gone bad: we are to judge people by their fruit. Apparently these hirelings do not do that. You shall know them by their fruits. "Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?" "Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit." A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. "Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire." Was this young man bearing forth good fruit? Was Christ glorified by what he was doing in his life? Absolutely not.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: John 15:8, just the opposite. Folks, when you hear people say that we are not supposed to judge righteously, just make sure that you are practicing what you preach. Make sure that you have removed the beam out of your eye before you go around and correct anything else by the Spirit of God. But remember in Matthew 7:1-6, Jesus teaches us how to judge. Jesus commands us to judge righteously, John 7:24. Judgment requires the character and evidence of spiritual life. We are going to judge the world, friends. 1 Corinthians 2:15-16. We are to judge matters between the brethren. 1 Corinthians 6:5. We are to judge the truth concerning what is being preached within the church.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: Hello, 1 Corinthians 14:29. We are to judge doctrine and teachings. Absolutely. Love does not permit false doctrine to be preached. 2 Corinthians 11:4. We are to judge by reproving the deeds and workers of darkness. Ephesians 5:11. We are to judge false Christianity, the counterfeits. Nobody did that more than Christ Himself. 1 John 2:18-20. We are to judge false prophets and teachers. Scripture teaches us that Ezekiel 13, Jeremiah 23. Look at Matthew 23. Jesus told you to make distinctions over and over and over. Look at the major prophets. Look at the minor prophets. Christians are going to judge the world. 1 Corinthians 6:2, as I just said.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: These are just a few examples in the New Testament. I have already highlighted Deuteronomy 4:5-6. So, when I ask where unrepentant sinners go, friends, come on, I am asking you, they go to hell. It is not scripturally difficult to judge between the holy and the profane. Ezekiel 44:23. Are we not to emulate the Christ? John 14:6. Absolutely. Furthermore, is it not interesting? 60 percent of the people in this country say they do not believe in hell, but yet is it not interesting, friends, how they can speak out against the politicians they do not like?
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: Is it not interesting how they can speak out against people and things they do not like, but somehow or another, that does not apply to their spiritual walk. Huh. What does Matthew 25:32 say? "And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats." What does Revelation 21:8 tell us, friends? It speaks of those who will be rejected by God because they rejected His mercy. And what happens when you reject His mercy and His grace? You go where the sinners go.
Speaker 1 - Bradley Dean, Host: Now as I pondered this, I began to think within myself that the very people - the biblical illiterates - that are telling us that we are not to judge anyone by declaring that unrepentant or profane sinners ended up in hell make themselves the judges by telling us who is holy and who is going to heaven no matter what they did. Do you understand what I am saying, folks? Let us stick to the Word of God. In the Word of God alone, we will be safe. It is always safest in the will of God. Folks, nay to man; yes to Christ. Love you by what we do. First John 3:18. See you.
