The people of Prescott Valley, AZ were not as open to the false doctrines spread by the New IFB movement as David Berzins had hoped. In a recent video posted by Framing the World, Berzins says that the church plant was not a failure, because there were “over 500 people saved” (although apparently none of these “new creatures” were willing to attend his church. He claims the ground just needs plowed more.
With that said, The New IFB directory no longer shows Berzins as the pastor:
Instead, Berzins has moved location to Norcross, GA. to start Strong Hold Baptist Church.
Interesting, because in this video an Andersonite preaches, that pastors are supposed to succeed the first time and can’t have multiple trials: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XxyXoLmd6bo. And here Anderson confirms his preaching: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CbLxjCvEjhQ.
I feel somewhat safer as an openly gay man with him out of the area. A neighbor and church member seems to have pointed Berzins in my direction, which led to him being trespassed from my property. The worry is less about what cowards like him do directly and more about what the more unstable cult members might be capable of doing, though.
