Observations on Roger Jimenez's Resignation

  

"I want to be clear: I stepped down due to moral sin."

 

How is this clear? This is the opposite of clear since no one knows what "moral sin" is. There is no such thing as "moral sin." "Moral sin" is literally an oxymoron since sin isn't moral.

 

Here is one possibility for what this means: modern churches will sometimes refer to sexual sin as "immorality," and modern Bible versions replace the word "fornication" with "immorality" or "sexual immorality." Maybe "moral sin" means "sexual sin"? Why not just say that then?

"I have not committed adultery with another person."

The last 3 words here are totally unnecessary and awkward. Why not just say, "I have not committed adultery"? Did you commit adultery by yourself? If this were simply porn, wouldn't it be much simpler to just say "porn"?

 

Did you commit adultery with multiple women? "Persons" plural instead of "another person" meaning one other particular person?

 

I am not claiming to know the answers to these questions, and I am not accusing him of anything in particular. I am just pointing out the weirdness of his vague, meaningless statements.

"This was a voluntary resignation that I initiated."

 

There are 2 facts that prove that he was busted this week, and that he did not know this was going to happen this week. He was caught off guard.

1. His last sermon was called "The End of Jeroboam: When Trouble Exposes Your Idols." If his resignation were premeditated, this would not have been his last sermon. Who ends his 15 year ministry with a sermon called "The End of Jeroboam"? Jeroboam was the bad guy in the story who split the kingdom and taught false religion. The timing was an act of God, not planned by Jimenez.

 

2. He was scheduled to preach at a church in Fresno this Sunday (1/18/26). This was abruptly canceled at the last minute. Pozarnsky uploaded a video saying that they were "actively" working on scheduling a new date for Pastor Jimenez to preach in a few weeks’ time instead (which clearly was not true). If he had planned on resigning, he would have canceled this meeting sooner or never scheduled it in the first place. It was canceled last minute with BS about rescheduling "a few weeks" from now due to Jimenez being caught off guard.

 

"My wife and children plan to remain at Verity."

 

So, his wife and children will attend church, but he won't? Will he simply stay home? Will they attend two different churches? How does that work? Are they splitting up? "She can leave" claims another victim?

 

"The church trustees are following the guidelines of our church bylaws to find a new pastor."

 

My hope and prayer for Verity is that they get the best possible pastor who can right the ship and lead them to future greatness. Stedfast went through a horrible scandal and went on to become far greater than ever and do incredible works for God. Verity can do the same thing.

 

You stay great the way you became great. Verity needs to get back to their roots. They need to get back to being a hard preaching, NIFB church. That's what made them great. Over the last year and a half, they have been going a bad direction and have been in decline. If they continue down that road, they will continue on that same course of ruin. They need to do something different to fix the problem. Hopefully the right element at Verity will prevail, and we will see them restored to their former greatness.

Verity Warsaw Teaches Stupid "Marital Rape" Doctrine

 These are excerpts from the sermon "Dangerous Marriage Doctrine in the American NIFB." They are auto-translated from Polish into English, so sorry about the rough translation. It's still easy to get the gist of what he's saying. 

c. 9:00 "even in Poland, well it's probably not a secret that most people found the church through that old new IFB movement. Well, now it's not like it used to be, and because they listen to it, if someone still listens, I don't want to forbid it, but I want them to be careful, especially about false doctrines. And lately, it's you who is afraid for a year, this man defends himself and defends himself and defends himself and says such things: there is no rape in marriage." 

c. 16:45 "But what do I hear all the time from this NIFB, what they say, these sermons, that it would be okay. Even if they don't say it directly, but this sentence, there is no rape in marriage, already applies such a thing, right? And this is a disgusting doctrine. This is simply a disgusting doctrine. He should rather talk about the problems that exist in marriage, that such a situation is that someone doesn't want all the time, because exceptionally it will always be, this is something normal, but if someone doesn't want all the time, there are some very deep problems in the marriage and that should be fixed, right? This should be fixed, not some quick fix for the problem with the mussing. No, you can't do something like that."

18:20 "Ok, so what can be compared to such a rape? Murder, right? What would it be like if I killed David's brother? It was murder. But this is my body. I can't kill myself, there is no such thing as suicide? No jest suicide. No, with the same logic, as there is suicide, with the same logic, there is also rape in marriage. And what is worse, if I killed David's brother or myself? What sin is worse? Well, some Catholics always say that suicide is the worst sin. Well, of course, killing someone else is even worse, because the whole family, the people who like brother David, and brother David will die. And with me, I, who wanted it anyway, who wanted to kill myself anyway, I will only hurt the people who love me, and one person, at least, wanted to, right? No, I decided that. That's why I think it's smaller. And of course, this is much worse for someone else, because it is rape, possibly also adultery, unification, everything together, right? I am in a marriage that is on another level. I understand, but it doesn't change the fact that how rape is used, rape is used. It still is rape. And that's why such sentences, they said, no, no, that we are mistaken. They say, well, they keep saying that there is no such thing. This doctrine is poison, it is simply poison for the family, for a healthy family. And that's why I stand 100% behind the churches that, well, for example, the Baptist Verity, or the Sacramento, Manila. They have a super good doctrine from the family."

 c 23:06 "I was rather listening to his sermon out of curiosity than to learn, because many years ago I learned a lot. I must admit, most of the doctrine, well, I have from IFB, or now Pastor Anderson, Pastor Stucky, Pastor Jimenez, even Pastor Mejia, I listened to him, I listened a lot and learned a lot of doctrines. Well, of course, I also learned a lot by reading the Bible myself, but I learned most of it through that. They were my teachers, just like yours, you also listened to a lot of this, but in the last year it was just preaching, forbidding, forbidding, forbidding, as if almost defending oneself, attacking other churches, and then also changing doctrine to fit things. I also said in this sermon, which I did not publish last year, that this pastor on this topic, whether it is okay, corporal punishment in marriage, whether it is okay, to be a wife, did not say either this side or that one. What does it mean when a person says that? No, I will tell you right away, you cannot be a wife, you cannot, it is not allowed. But what does it mean when a person simply remains silent on this topic? Why can't it be, as I said, that this cannot be done? Why?"

c. 25:45 "You have a really big problem. If there is suicide, then there is also rape in marriage. No, and despite the fact that suicide is, in some sense, both are terrible sins: murder, suicide. And despite the fact that compared to these, one murder is a little smaller than the other, both are still sufficiently great sins. And if a man, well I see that in some marriage a man has such a feeling to force his wife, then something really isn't working there. I should look for the problem. The root of the cause. And fix this, which is the problem. Where is the problem that such a situation occurred? But to fix this situation with violence. I really do, they always say: no, no, we don't say that, well, in the end, that's what they say. I to so many times."

c. 26:58 "And that's why, even though I am just an English teacher, I proclaim this for the people in Poland. I don't think that people from America will listen to this. Maybe there are some Poles there who are listening, okay? But this is, I don't want to fight with them. He does what he wants, but they say it for the people who are in Poland. I have asked questions from the internet so many times, how do you stand on this matter? Now it is clear how we stand on this matter, so I can provide a link to the sermons and the attachment. We are simply independent. No, not yet, we are still near Manila. But overall we will be independent. There will be a day when this church will be completely independent. And that's why I say this to those people who are members of this church. I say this to Poland so that everyone knows, knows what position we have on this topic."

c.33:56 "And for the same reason, as I am there and I take, when they fell to the ground, and other people were waiting, they were supposed to step back, so I step back, just like last year, when Pastor Stucky did it quietly, and Pastor Jimenez did it quietly, now we simply repeat it loudly, so that it is clear to everyone. We are going in that other direction, simply the Bible, and okay, we have this doctrine from that moment until a certain point, but where it goes into such absurdities, at that moment I think there is nothing new to learn there anymore. If you want to learn, I recommend old sermons, but with the new ones it will be difficult, because what can you learn from a lot of sermons that only speak against someone." 

c. 6:50 "Regarding Pastor Anderson, he always talks about how important doctrine is, and that's why I speak, because I know that people listen to his sermons, and as you listen, as I said, it's your business, I won't forbid anything here, I want to, well, I can't help it, I want to listen even to Joel Osteen, okay, so do it, but the thing is, when you listen to Joel Osteen or a Catholic priest, well, you at least know that they are saying nonsense, yes, but the thing is, if we listen to this at the moment of some new IFB person, possibly people have such an approach, they just eat, eat, eat and don't check, and even when I say, well, I say, as the Bible says, as it was also in the Bible, that they simply checked, no, where was it, in Berea, no, where? in Berea, yes in Berea, they made everything with the Bible, whether it will be preserved like this and just as I command, check it, check it and the same with every other evangelist."

"Private" NIFB Doctrine or Mainstream Christian View?


I was recently accused of teaching a strange doctrine with regard to Leviticus 20:10. What I said was that the verse is very specific in only prescribing the death penalty when adultery involves a married woman. 

The reality is that my interpretation is the mainstream Christian view, and every major Bible commentary agrees with me. 

Matthew Henry’s Commentary on the Whole Bible (1708–1714):

"The sin of adultery [Leviticus 20:10] is committed when any man lies with a married woman, defiling another man’s wife. The law does not reckon a married man’s commerce with an unmarried woman as the same offense, for the wife’s fidelity is the chief concern."

The JPS Torah Commentary (Baruch A. Levine, 1989):

"In Leviticus 20:10, adultery is intercourse between a man and a married woman, infringing on the husband’s prerogatives. The law’s asymmetry stems from a system where men could have multiple partners, but a married woman’s infidelity threatened family structure."

The Pulpit Commentary (H.D.M. Spence and Joseph S. Exell, 1890):

"Leviticus 20:10 prescribes death for both parties in adultery, defined as a man with another’s wife. The man’s marital status is not considered, as the law protects the sanctity of the husband’s marriage, not the reverse."

The Anchor Bible Commentary (Jacob Milgrom, 2000):

"Adultery in Leviticus 20:10 is defined as sexual relations with a married or betrothed woman, violating her husband’s exclusive rights. A married man’s relations with an unattached woman do not constitute adultery, as the law reflects a patriarchal concern for lineage and property."

Keil and Delitzsch Biblical Commentary on the Old Testament (19th century):

"The law [Leviticus 20:10] refers to the illicit intercourse of a man, whether married or not, with a woman who is another’s wife... The offense is against the husband’s rights, and the marital status of the man is irrelevant, as polygyny was not forbidden."

The Expositor’s Bible Commentary (R. Laird Harris, 1990):

"The offense in Leviticus 20:10 is a man lying with another man’s wife, regardless of his own marital status. A married man’s relations with an unmarried woman were not deemed adulterous, as the law protected the husband’s exclusive claim over his wife."

The Wycliffe Bible Commentary (Charles F. Pfeiffer, 1962):

"Adultery in Leviticus 20:10 pertains to a man, married or not, who defiles a married woman. The law’s focus is on the violation of the husband’s marriage, not on a married man’s actions with an unattached woman, consistent with Israel’s patriarchal structure."

The Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges (A.T. Chapman, 1913):

"The sin of Leviticus 20:10 is committed when a man has intercourse with a married or betrothed woman, infringing on her husband’s rights. The law does not penalize a married man’s relations with an unmarried woman, as polygyny was permitted."

The Torah: A Modern Commentary (W. Gunther Plaut, 1981):

"Leviticus 20:10 defines adultery as sexual relations involving a married woman, emphasizing the breach of her husband’s authority. A married man with an unmarried woman incurs no such penalty, reflecting the asymmetrical gender norms of ancient Israel."

The New Interpreter’s Bible Commentary (Walter C. Kaiser Jr., 1994):

"Leviticus 20:10 addresses adultery as a man’s sexual involvement with a married woman, violating her husband’s rights. The law’s silence on a married man with an unmarried woman reflects the cultural norm of polygyny, where only the wife’s fidelity was strictly regulated." 

Here is a video of me teaching this "privately" to hundreds of people in a sermon on October 3, 2021:
