What genuinely is a Christian fundamentalist? You should be one.
I am a Christian Fundamentalist as I am totally opposed to Modernism and False Gospels of liberal theology. I refuse to compromise on the fundamentals of true Christianity. Fundamentalism as I am using the term is a 20th-century anti-modern/liberal orthodox Christian movement. This definition is drawn from the history of the movement, from its inception in the early part of the 20th-century until the present.
“‘Fundamentalism’ is the only consistently thought-out version of the faith, and the ‘Fundamentalist’ is the only Christian who uses his mind in a fully Christian way.” —J. I. Packer
“The deepest cleavages in Christendom are doctrinal; and the deepest doctrinal cleavages are those which result from disagreement about authority.”
“Sham unity is not worth working for, and real unity, that fellowship of love in the truth which Christ prayed that His disciples might enjoy, will come only as those sections of the wall which rest on unsound foundations are dismantled and rebuilt.” —J. I. Packer
People use the term “fundamentalist” in a disparaging sense because of a handful of bad apples who abuse the title At its core, fundamentalism is about nothing more than getting back to fundamental tenets and beliefs of Christianity, following what the Bible says and guided (but not reliant upon) the historical understanding of scripture by the early Church and Church Fathers.
What is The Gospel?
God Created all things and said it was good. He placed the first man and woman in The Garden of Eden. They were named Adam and Eve. Through the persuasion of an evil entity in the form of a serpent Adam and Eve died spirituality due to eating from a forbidden tree.
This caused the curse of the entire creation and all humans being born in radical depravity and separated from God (spiritually dead). A slave to sin and bound to physical death leading to eternal judgment in a place called hell. The justice we all deserve for our sin nature.
However, God so loved the world that He gave His only Begotten Son through crucifixion on a cross as an Atonement for the whole world He so loved. So, that whomsoever in the Whole World believes on Him (Jesus Christ) with a Godly repentance will not perish, but, will have eternal life.
Ones salvation is based on a genuine free will decision to accept or reject God's Grace and to thus not take part in God's desire to save you. The Atonement and Christ's Blood is for all! God's Grace frees you from your Depravity to respond by, repentance, belief and True Faith. This causes you to be placed in Christ's sheep fold and the Blood of Chris to be applied to you.
This leaves those that have not done so with actually only themselves to blame for going to eternal damnation and the fires of eternal hell. So, I plead with you to not ignore the call and drawing of The Father through His Holy Spirit. While Salvation has been provided for you it is up to you to accept God's Free Gift and Provision to you.
Christ is not a way, but, The Way, Truth and Life. No one gets saved; into the Kingdom of God and then on the New Heavens/New Earth. Until accepting your depravity and responding in repentance and True Faith on Christ and His accomplishments on Your behalf.
It is the most important thing you will ever do! Once you have True Faith God and His Holy Spirit has promised to keep you sealed as His Own Until the End of all things has come. Repent, believe today and come to Christ! While the time is at hand!

The Bible mandates free market capitalism. It is an anti-socialist document.
The essence of democratic socialism is this re-written version of God's commandment: "Thou shalt not steal, except by majority vote."
"Economic democracy" is the system whereby two wolves and a sheep vote on what to have for dinner. Christian socialists and defenders of economic planning by state bureaucrats deeply resent this interpretation of their ethical position. They resent it because it's accurate. When Christianity adheres to the judicial specifics of the Bible, it produces free market capitalism.
On the other hand, when Christianity rejects the judicial specifics of the Bible, it produces socialism or some politically run hybrid "middle way" between capitalism and socialism, where politicians and bureaucrats make the big decisions about how people's wealth will be allocated. Economic growth then slows or is reversed. Always.
Free market capitalism produces long-term economic growth. Socialism and middle-way economic interventionism by the state produce poverty and bureaucracy. If your goal is to keep poor people poor, generation after generation, you should promote socialism. But be sure to call it economic democracy in order to fool the voters.
The Bible is an anti-socialist document. Socialist propagandists for over four centuries have claimed that the Bible teaches socialism, but we have yet to see a single Bible commentary written by a socialist. If the Bible teaches socialism, where is the expository evidence?
When I say that the Bible mandates a moral and legal social order that inevitably produces free market capitalism, I have the evidence to back up my position. My critics -- critics of capitalism -- do not.
The next time you hear someone say that the Bible teaches anything but free market capitalism, ask him or her which Bible commentary demonstrates this. You will get a blank stare followed by a lot of verbal tap-dancing about "the ultimate ethic of the Bible" or "the upholding of the poor in the Bible." You will be given a lot of blah, blah, blah. Blah, blah, blah is not a valid substitute for biblical exposition.

Rejecting "Calvinism" and Embracing simply being a Christian fundamentalist
Lately I have been researching and rereading the Bible without any systematic of mankind's put on top of it. This has lead me to reject Calvinist soteriology. It is very clear by many passages which use the Greek term Kosmos meaning all entire world that the idea of limiting the Atonement and provision of the Blood of Jesus is not possible.
Of course, that is not the only thing that makes me need to reject the Calvinist TULIP. It was the inconsistency of what The Gospel message affirms and affirming the rest of the system. We cannot truly believe that God wishes for all to Repent and Believe if the offer is not genuine. Which if only the elect are saved they cannot do what they are called to do by God Himself under the unconditional election and limited Atonement doctrines.
Ones salvation is based on a genuine free will decision to accept or reject God's Prevenient Grace and to thus not take part in God's desire to save you. The Atonement is not limited and Christ's Blood is for all! However, the Grace which frees you from your Depravity to respond by, repentance, belief and True Faith is resistible not Irresistible as Calvinism maintains. Nor doss regeneration proceed Faith placing being Born Again before having Faith. Your repentance, belief and True Faith is what causes you to be placed in Christ's sheep fold and the Blood of Chris to be accepted by you.
This leaves those that have not done so with actually only themselves to blame for going to eternal damnation and the fires of eternal hell. So, I plead with you to not ignore the call and drawing of The Father through His Holy Spirit. While Salvation has been provided for you it is up to you to accept God's Free Gift and Provision to you. Christ is not a way, but, The Way, Truth and Life. No one gets saved; into the Kingdom of God and then on the New Heavens/New Earth. Until accepting your depravity and responding in repentance and True Faith on Christ and His accomplishments on Your behalf.

Fully Embracing Being KJV-only. However, rejecting separatism and judgment over The Textual Issue/differences.
First thing I want to distinguish between being KJV Only and being a KJV only-ist. One is you and or your groups or Churches standing on the KJV as God's Perfectly Providentially Preserved Word Accurately Translated for the English speaking people. That it has everything needed from the Word of God for His Children.
The other can be the idea that the translation itself is somehow secondarily inspired. Not just accurately translated from the Received or Confessional Text. It can also mean that you think non KJV users are heretical and damned. As well as, pushing for separation from Churches that do not use the KJV.
I am in camp A, but, definitely not B. I find after much prayer and research that the KJV is God's Perfectly Providentially Preserved Word Accurately Translated for the English speaking people. That it has everything needed from the Word of God for His Children. That no others have been made which surpass it nor do updates add things. If anything modern translations are missing passages due to Modernism and The Modern Critical Theory of textual translation.
I do not agree with people whom would or do push for me to biblical separation from others over the King James issue or position. Nor, do I think it is appropriate to judge fellow Christians faith/Born Again status based on their lack of KJV use. Thus I am solidly KJV Only, but, I am not that type of King James Only. Or a Kings James Only-ist; in that I am not joined in someway to a movement or the more radical members of that group. Nor do I agree with the nuttier defenders of the KJVO position. For their number is many and their views are not charitable at all.
