Halloween Bible Burning Event
A North Carolina pastor plans to host a Halloween event at his church to burn heretical books. At the top of the list – the Bible. Read the full story here.
Feeling dark about your New International, English Standard, New Living, or New American Standard versions of the bible? Do you sense Satan’s presence when you crack open your New King James? If so, there is an event just for you! Join Pastor Marc Grizzard and the Amazing Grace Baptist Church in Canton, North Carolina for “Burning Perversions of God’s Word”, a good old fashioned book burning. If you own a version of scripture other than the King James 1611, this event is specifically for you. Own books authored by heretics like John MacCarthur, Rick Warren, John Piper, or Charles Swindoll, or James Dobson there is room at the fire for you too!

“We are burning books that we believe to be Satanic.” – Pastor Marc Grizzard

This is straight from their (1993) website:
This event is not open to the public. Only our members and those by special invitation from the pastor only. All others are tresspassing.
We will be serving fried chicken, and all the sides.
Questions That Have Been Asked
1. Do I know Greek and Hebrew?
I know very little, but that doesn’t matter.
7. Why don’t you include all the emails instead of just the ones who support you?
Because I don’t want to.
8. Why don’t you update your web site?
This is the typical question that one would ask who is more concern with the mis-spelling of a word on a sign than what the sign said. I used bad grammar on a church sign that we had that read, “All Abortions Is Murder.” Yes, I should have used “are” instead of “is.” Someone left a note at our church door saying that we used improper English and it bothered them. Murdering human beings didn’t bother them, but improper English did. This shows the mess we are in spiritually in America. Animals and trees have more rights that human beings.

Also, they said they are not burning versions based on the TR, but yet they are burning the NKJV which is based on the TR.

Obnoxious how some people can’t see the truth when it’s right in front of their face…Reminds me of “christians” killing Doctors who perform abortions. It’s sad to think these people truly believe they are doing God’s work. Guess they need to be added to our prayer lists!

Tonight the heavens opened and rain fell. Book burning didn’t take place. There were several news crews, reporters, Sheriff and protesters. If I had been the pastor I would have been embarrassed that more protesters came out than members. There may have been books destroyed but when the flock left the building it was the woman and children first, only five of them and then the pastor himself. As the woman and children left he turned out the porch light, as if trying to hide their identities and turned it on and then back off when he left.
During the service it was said the news crew and others were listening through the floor upstairs and could here yelling from the service. The only disappointing thing was that more locals didn’t attend the event. One came as far as Chattanooga, Tn and others an hour or so away. Was a peaceful event and most that were there didn’t agree with this radical man!
There were signs that read things like: What would Jesus do, Who are we to judge and several others. A gentleman that was dressed in an outfit of a Nazi soldier came out, gave an interview saying this promotes hate. He wouldn’t give his name and held two books, one was the Mormon bible and the other was not able to be seen. He did say that he was only wearing a costume and that is all it was. Protesters were unsure if he was there in support of the event or against it. Left most of us puzzled.
We are unsure if chicken and all the sides were served!
