A word from Allen the Beloved
🌿 Children of the Promise
God’s children are not defined by the flesh, but by the promise. As Isaac was, we are heirs not by human lineage, but by faith in Christ. ✝️ “And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” (Gal. 3:29). ✨ “The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint-heirs with Christ” (Rom. 8:16–17).
🛡️ God’s Protection and Victory
The Lord assures His servants: ⚔️ “No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against you in judgment you shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is from Me”(Isa. 54:17). 🌟 In Christ, “all the promises of God are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us” (2 Cor. 1:20). Nothing can separate us from His love. 💖
🏃 Persevering in the Faith
The Christian life is not a sprint but a long race. ⏳ Jesus declared: “But he who endures to the end shall be saved”(Matt. 24:13). 📖 Hebrews reminds us: “For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise” (Heb. 10:36). 👀 “Let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith” (Heb. 12:1–2). 🏅 Paul wrote: “I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus” (Phil. 3:14). Perseverance is not optional—it is the evidence of true faith.
⚠️ Warnings Against Falling Away
Scripture also warns us of the danger of turning back: 🚨 “Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall”(1 Cor. 10:12). 🔥 “Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God; but exhort one another daily… lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin” (Heb. 3:12–13). 🕳️ Peter speaks strongly: “For if, after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the latter end is worse for them than the beginning…” (2 Pet. 2:20–21). 📌 Hebrews exhorts us: “We desire that each one of you show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope until the end… imitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises” (Heb. 6:11–12).
👑 Conclusion
We are children of the promise, heirs of an unshakable kingdom. 🌍 We have the assurance of God’s protection and victory, but also the solemn call to persevere in faith until the end. 🕊️ The Christian life is both a glorious inheritance and a race of obedience and vigilance. ✝️ The Holy Spirit keeps us, and the Word continually reminds us to walk firmly, for only those who endure will inherit the eternal promise. 🌟

Steve Gregg: The Seamless Fit with Calvary Chapel & Ecumenism — The Gandalf Clown Effect
If you strip away the veneer of “independent Bible teacher,” Steve Gregg slots almost perfectly into the Calvary Chapel mold. His method of verse-by-verse exposition, his casual radio Q&A persona, his itinerant teaching across churches of all stripes—these mirror the Calvary Chapel brand DNA:
Non-denominational by name, denominational by practice. The movement loves to brand itself as “simply Christian” while functioning as a tightly aligned network. Gregg embodies that posture—avoiding denominational labels yet operating comfortably in their pulpits.
Ecumenical drift disguised as balance. Calvary Chapel’s power has always been to blur the lines—absorbing charismatic energy, Baptist conservatism, and evangelical pop-culture cool into one package. Gregg has mastered the same “blurring act,” presenting competing views as if neutrality were virtue. The effect: doctrinal edges are dissolved in real time.
Prophet of the moment, not prophet of the Lord. Instead of drawing hard lines, he reassures audiences that “many sincere Christians disagree” and “the Bible isn’t always clear.” This is not illumination but sedation—people come away pacified, not awakened. It is a prophet’s posture stripped of fire, functioning as anesthesia.
The result? A ministry that feels safe across the evangelical spectrum, yet functions as a gateway to ecumenism. Instead of calling out compromise, Gregg normalizes it by endless “options-lists,” treating heresies and historic faith alike. In this sense, he is not standing against the current but surfing it—a perfect Calvary Chapel clone, even if he never took their badge.
Why call him the “Gandalf clown”? Because his role is myth-maker and pacifier at once.
Like Gandalf, he positions himself as the wise guide, the seasoned traveler through many realms of doctrine. His followers see him as the man who has “read it all” and can hand down measured interpretations.
But unlike a true prophet who draws the sword of the Word, he waves a staff of smoke—grand storytelling, calm voice, reassuring neutrality. The result: people are lulled, not stirred. The “wizard aura” hides a clownish effect: the congregation laughs, nods, and goes home unchanged.
In practice, he is a central piece in the sleep-machine: not outside of Calvary Chapel, but in symbiosis with its ecumenical instinct. His “balanced” approach validates their core compromise: unity at the cost of truth, breadth at the expense of depth.
Thus, the Gandalf-clown banner isn’t caricature—it’s diagnostic. He is the mascot of this moment: the wizard-sage who turns out to be a jester, mesmerizing the crowd into accepting a world with no drawn lines. Instead of calling the church to repentance, he lulls it into spiritual slumber while standing at the very crossroads of evangelical ecumenism.
Public Statement of Separation
After prayer and careful discernment, we announce a clear separation from the ministry of Steve Gregg. Though he often teaches with the appearance of orthodoxy, his pattern reveals compromise. He honors and defends figures such as Chuck Smith, Calvary Chapel, Greg Laurie, Lonnie Frisbee, and Kathryn Kuhlman, while refusing to condemn Alexandrian Church Fathers and Catholic mystics. This silence leaves room for universalism and syncretism, promoted even within his own household. His ecumenical posture, broadcast across many radio stations, strengthens the illusion of soundness while spreading confusion.
Financially, he insists ministries should never state their needs, yet he accepts contributions through credit cards, stocks, bonds, inheritances, and personal gifts—always under his own control—while criticizing others who raise support differently. This creates a façade of humility while consolidating power and resources.
For these reasons, we can no longer support him or his ministry. Although we have kept online some of his more orthodox teachings for the benefit of the Spanish-speaking world, we strongly urge that they be heard with discernment.
Why We Differ from the Ministry of Steve Gregg
(2 Timothy 4:2–4)
Paul charged: “Preach the word… reprove, rebuke, exhort… for the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine.”
The ministry of Steve Gregg:
- Presents options instead of preaching with urgency.
- Mentions error but avoids reproof (Calvinism, Catholicism).
- Normalizes compromise (universalism, annihilationism, syncretism).
- Emphasizes tolerance over holiness and doctrinal clarity.
This reflects the very climate Paul warned about: itching ears, teachers who will not endure sound doctrine.
Our stance:
We choose clarity, not neutrality. We will preach, reprove, rebuke, and exhort in truth — even when unpopular.
About Steve Gregg en Espanol
A circus needs clowns, and syncretism always finds them. They juggle Scripture and culture, smiling as puppets, while the dialect does its work. The show feels harmless, but the end is deadly.
Un circo necesita payasos, y el sincretismo siempre los encuentra. Malabarean las Escrituras y la cultura, sonriendo como marionetas, mientras la dialéctica hace su trabajo. El espectáculo parece inofensivo, pero el final es letal.
The Chuck E. Smith Circus Script
Lonnie Frisbee – Hippie Clown
“I brought the flowers, the hair, the acid-trip visions, the free-love vibe. I turned counterculture rebellion into revival kitsch — and they called it the Spirit.”
Chuck Smith – Ringmaster Clown
“Step right up! I’ll package the Jesus Freaks into a church franchise, build a network, sell it as holiness while running the tent like a business.”
Steve Gregg – Academic Clown
“I’ll hold the commentary, the lectures, the debates. I’ll never separate fully, just keep the circus respectable with intellectual gloss.”
Greg Laurie – Stadium Clown
“All in black, lights and cameras on me. I juggle stadium spotlights, make decisions look like discipleship, and call it a harvest.”
Kathryn Kuhlman – Theatrical Clown
“Flowing robes, swoons, drama on stage. Every gesture exaggerated, every sigh turned into spectacle. Showbiz packaged as anointing.”

Steve Gregg: El encaje perfecto con Calvary Chapel y el ecumenismo — El efecto “Gandalf payaso”
Si le quitas la capa de “maestro bíblico independiente”, Steve Gregg encaja casi perfectamente en el molde de Calvary Chapel. Su método de exposición verso por verso, su tono casual de preguntas y respuestas en radio, su itinerancia enseñando en iglesias de todo tipo: todo eso refleja el ADN de marca de Calvary Chapel.
No denominacional de nombre, denominacional en la práctica. El movimiento se vende como “simplemente cristiano” mientras funciona como una red estrechamente alineada. Gregg encarna esa postura: evita las etiquetas denominacionales pero opera cómodamente en sus púlpitos.
Deriva ecuménica disfrazada de equilibrio. La fuerza de Calvary Chapel siempre ha sido borrar las líneas: absorber la energía carismática, el conservadurismo bautista y el “cool” de la cultura pop evangélica en un solo paquete. Gregg ha dominado el mismo “acto de difuminar”, presentando posturas competidoras como si la neutralidad fuera virtud. El efecto: los bordes doctrinales se disuelven en tiempo real.
Profeta del momento, no profeta del Señor. En lugar de trazar líneas firmes, tranquiliza a las audiencias con que “muchos cristianos sinceros discrepan” y que “la Biblia no siempre es clara”. No es iluminación sino sedación: la gente sale pacificada, no despertada. Es una postura profética despojada de fuego, que funciona como anestesia.
¿El resultado? Un ministerio que se siente seguro en todo el espectro evangélico, pero que funciona como puerta de entrada al ecumenismo. En vez de denunciar el compromiso, Gregg lo normaliza con interminables “listas de opciones”, tratando por igual a las herejías y a la fe histórica. En este sentido, no está resistiendo la corriente: la está surfeando—un clon perfecto de Calvary Chapel, aunque nunca haya llevado su insignia.
¿Por qué llamarlo el “Gandalf payaso”? Porque su papel es a la vez creador de mitos y pacificador.
Como Gandalf, se posiciona como el guía sabio, el viajero curtido por muchos reinos de la doctrina. Sus seguidores lo ven como el hombre que “lo ha leído todo” y puede entregar interpretaciones mesuradas.
Pero, a diferencia de un verdadero profeta que desenvaina la espada de la Palabra, él agita una vara de humo—gran cuentista, voz calmada, neutralidad tranquilizadora. El resultado: la gente es arrullada, no estremecida. El “aura de mago” oculta un efecto de payaso: la congregación se ríe, asiente y se va a casa sin cambio.
En la práctica, es una pieza central de la máquina del sueño: no está fuera de Calvary Chapel, sino en simbiosis con su instinto ecuménico. Su enfoque “equilibrado” valida su compromiso nuclear: unidad a costa de la verdad, amplitud a expensas de la profundidad.
Así, la bandera “Gandalf payaso” no es caricatura: es diagnóstica. Es la mascota de este momento: el mago-sabio que resulta ser un bufón, hipnotizando a la multitud para que acepte un mundo sin líneas trazadas. En vez de llamar a la iglesia al arrepentimiento, la adormece espiritualmente mientras permanece en la encrucijada misma del ecumenismo evangélico.
Declaración Pública de Separación
Después de oración y discernimiento, anunciamos una separación clara del ministerio de Steve Gregg. Aunque a menudo enseña con apariencia de ortodoxia, su trayectoria muestra compromiso con el error. Honra y defiende a figuras como Chuck Smith, Calvary Chapel, Greg Laurie, Lonnie Frisbee y Kathryn Kuhlman, mientras se niega a condenar a los Padres Alejandrinos y a los místicos católicos. Este silencio abre espacio para el universalismo y el sincretismo, promovidos incluso dentro de su propio hogar. Su postura ecuménica, difundida en muchas estaciones de radio, refuerza la ilusión de solidez mientras siembra confusión.
En lo financiero, insiste en que los ministerios nunca deben declarar sus necesidades, pero recibe contribuciones mediante tarjetas de crédito, acciones, bonos, herencias y regalos personales—siempre bajo su control—mientras critica a otros que levantan apoyo de manera distinta. Esto crea una fachada de humildad mientras concentra poder y recursos.
Por estas razones, ya no podemos apoyarlo a él ni a su ministerio. Aunque hemos mantenido en línea algunas de sus enseñanzas más ortodoxas para beneficio del mundo hispanohablante, exhortamos firmemente a que se escuchen con discernimiento.
Por Qué Nos Diferenciamos del Ministerio de Steve Gregg
(2 Timoteo 4:2–4)
Pablo encargó: “Que prediques la palabra… redarguye, reprende, exhorta… porque vendrá tiempo cuando no sufrirán la sana doctrina.”
El ministerio de Steve Gregg:
- Presenta opciones en lugar de predicar con urgencia.
- Menciona el error pero evita redargüir (calvinismo, catolicismo).
- Normaliza el compromiso (universalismo, aniquilacionismo, sincretismo).
- Enfatiza la tolerancia sobre la santidad y la claridad doctrinal.
Esto refleja exactamente el clima que Pablo advirtió: comezón de oír, maestros que no soportan la sana doctrina.
Nuestra postura:
Escogemos la claridad, no la neutralidad. Predicaremos, redargüiremos, reprendemos y exhortaremos en la verdad — aun cuando sea impopular.
