Ryries heresy goes beyond the false gospel and into many other realms. His go-to sermon is excessively heretical, Blowing the Whistle on Wolves which ironically contains exaltation of wolves such as Curtis Hutson and Clarence Sexton, etc, and lots and lots about the bigness of big churches and big men, including himself (even though he is a little man in stature), how many hundreds were saved here and there and how he was running thousands in his church and so was so and so, etc. Just.
