The facebook page called "
Kent Hovind - public figure"
claims to be "the OFFICIAL KENT HOVIND page." However, Dr. Hovind has
no control over the contents of this page. He constantly sends out
messages that he says should be posted to facebook, but they never get
posted. Instead things are posted that he never actually said or
approved. Here is an example:
Someone seeing this post would obviously assume that this is
something that Dr. Kent Hovind is sharing, approves of, and wants
everyone to watch. However, that is NOT the case. Dr. Hovind has
REPEATEDLY demanded that he be in control of the contents of his
facebook page and blog. Here is what Dr. Kent Hovind actually says about
people posting things in his name.
Kent Hovind:
One more thot on the face book page issue you sent me this morning- I can already
predict the response, "Dad! You love Ray Comfort and sell his stuff
and recommend him all the time! You have stayed at his house and
preached with him! You sold his books. What is the issue? I never
dreamed that would be a problem!!"
Eric, and some in the
family, will NOT see, recognize or admit the real issue in all this.
The above will be the 'cover story' for why it was done as was. They
REALLY don't see it brother and they REALLY will have (feigned)
indignation over my statements on this. I thot I'd wait a few hours to
add this so my prediction will get there AFTER he responds (if he does)
or at least has the above internal reaction in his heart. Paul made it
PUBLIC in II Thes 2:1-3 that he did NOT send that letter about the Day
of Christ being past already. There are BILLIONS of copies of his
proclamation in print today!
All this sort of goes along
with those who feel complete freedom to change God's Words with new
'bible' versions and still call them "God's Words" or "Holy Bible" right
on the cover. It's just I Tim. 6:10 again! Neh. 8:8 gives the three
clear steps we should take with God's Words- 1. Read the Word as is, 2.
Explain the Word, 3. Cause the people to understand. We are NOT
authorized to change God's Words but we ARE authorized and encouraged to
read them as is and explain them and teach them (#2-3)! No one is
authorized to put words in my mouth, alter my words or sign my name
under things I did not write of make it appear that it came from me if
it didn't. No one is authorized to claim to speak for me or claim to
have "The Official Kent Hovind page" etc. without my permission. I hold
little hope this message will be understood or acted upon. :((
I'm NOT trying to cause trouble or make people mad! I'm just trying
to point out what I see and some others don't. :) I'm the innocent
victim here. I'm really a very nice guy! Actually, I'm the nicest guy I
have ever met in my HUMBLE totally unbiased opinion! :)) We will see
what God thinks about that one day soon! I HOPE He agrees and says,
"Well done..."
Thanks.
I'm Kent Hovind and I approve this message! This message may be shared if unaltered.
Here is what the "Kent Hovind - public figure" page says:
This is the OFFICIAL KENT HOVIND PAGE, under the operation of CSE & God Quest Ministries.
Well, there you have it. It is under the operation of GQ, and NOT Kent Hovind.
