Is Jack Van Impe False Prophet?

By Maryanne Goff


It seems that one televangelist has changed direction in their ministry. He was once a part of the Jerry Falwell ministry. He says he no longer follows the fundamentalist views he formerly expounded. He now praises the Roman Catholic Church and approves of the Pope, spiritual leader of that religious institution. It is apparent that jack van impe false prophet has greatly altered his professed beliefs.

Unlike the opinions he previously expressed, he now applauds the dictates of the Catholic church. He made a statement that the Pope gave him new direction. Some people understand this to be placing the Pope above Jesus Christ and his dictates. However, it is simply that he views the Pope in a reverential way.

A rift developed between van impe and the broadcasting network that aired his weekly program. They could not tolerate his speaking against certain ministers. They forbid him to use their names when he spoke about them. When he had this restriction imposed on him, he made the decision to leave and find new networks to broadcast his show.

Not many fundamentalist Christians are in favor of liaising with Muslims to find common interests and promote peace. This subject created a dispute between Van Impe and the station he used for twenty years. He criticized their choices of what programs to offer. He criticized the idea of adding Islamic beliefs to any Christian organizations. It is predicted that the world will end up with one government and one religion.

When Van Impe introduced his beliefs that were so different, it caused a few problems. Other preachers spoke against him and he against them. He was known for his stance against Catholicism and now he was saying the exact opposite about it. He also hinted at acceptance of a new religious concept called Chrislam. As the name implies, it is formed for the purpose of uniting the Christians and the followers of Islam.

Van Impe has been mocked on one television talk show. Jimmy Kimmel pretending to be him, insisted the word computer had a connection to the numbers 666. He also commented on Van Impe talking against computers. In a complete turnaround, he supplied the public with the directions for downloading material from the religious website belonging to him.

Jack graduated from high school in 1948 and entered Detroit Bible College, which later became William Tyndale College. He financed his college education by working as a concert organizer. He began his profession as a church preacher early in life. His memorizing 14,000 verses from the bible is legendary.

He has traveled all over the country to preach the gospel truth as he sees it. From strict adherence to Baptist fundamentalism to his currently liberal attitude towards Catholicism, the Pope and Islam is a radical change. He went from preaching against them to promoting them as he does today.

His split with the Trinity Broadcasting Network occurred because they forbid him to use the names of the ministers he opposed. He did so because he thought they were preaching untrue doctrine. When the network imposed this restriction on his sermons, he left and found other networks to air his program. His new beliefs led to him being called jack van impe false prophet. He continued to speak his mind on the new networks. It was the truth as he saw it and he would not be prevented from expressing it.
