The credentials of “Dr” Phil
Before reading the below article, please read the folllowing article.
Is Doctor Phil Pringle Really a Doctor?
To this date we are not familiar with Phil Pringle gaining any further theological qualifications.
Pringle says “people will heap up teaching because [their] ears [are] itching to hear the Word”?
There are some things that Phil Pringle does that are either flat out stupid or deliberately deceitful.
Here is a good example of Phil Pringle encouraging the church to use Satan’s church growth strategies.
Enough Said – Pringle Reveals All…
Pringle has done some something similar again just recently. You know someone is a false teacher when they twist God’s Word on false teachers.
To prepare you for this piece, we will put up a few different translations just in case C3s critics think it is us condemning Phil Pringle.
God says in His Word:
For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. New International Version
For a time is coming when people will no longer listen to sound and wholesome teaching. They will follow their own desires and will look for teachers who will tell them whatever their itching ears want to hear. New Living Translation
For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, English Standard Version
For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires, New American Standard Bible
For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; King James Bible
Now that you’ve read the scripture, ask yourself these questions:
- How do you think Phil Pringle will twist this scripture?
- Do you think Paul the Apostle wants us to be not only hearers of false teachers but doers of their false teaching?
Well here is Phil Pringle teaching how a person in Christ is a prepared person. Isn’t Phil Pringle fulfilling the above scripture accurately? There is only one scripture used which he twists and then proceeds to teach those with itching ears everything of the world but not “sound doctrine”.
PREPARATION
Paul says in the last days people will heap up teaching because they ears itching to hear the Word (2 Tim 4:3). However it is doing the Word that builds our lives, not just hearing it.
The person in Christ is a prepared person. They get ready. They’re set for everything. Nothing will move them because they’re settled firmly upon Jesus Christ, the rock. They’re doers of the Word, not just hearers only.
In Rich Dad’s Guide to Investing, Robert T Kiyosaki, says, ‘You are either prepared or you’re not. You’re either in position or you’re not. If you’re prepared, there is a deal of a lifetime being presented to you every day of your life.’
Benjamin Disraeli, the British Prime Minister in the late eighteen-hundreds declared ‘The secret of success in life is for a man to be ready for his opportunity when it comes.’
Louis Pasteur also of the late eighteen-hundreds , the famous French chemist and biologist and inventor of pasteurization and various vaccines, also understood the power of preparation – ‘Chance favours the prepared mind.’
See you in church!

Robert Kiyosaki said:
“Like Jesus Christ, I’m not really Christian, but he was a great story teller. The bible is nothing, the bible comes from the word bibliotheca, it’s a book of stories. That’s all it is, Matthew’s a story, they’re stories.”

Pringle quotes a guy who doesn’t see himself as a Christian. How is that helping to lead people to Jesus.
Benjamin Disraeli was an Anglican, and Louis Pasteur was a Catholic. It doesn’t take much of an internet search to find quotes from both men regarding their belief in God. Yet Pringle pulls out ‘opportunity’ quotes.
As for Pringle’s comprehension and writing skills, he surely wouldn’t pass a Year 6 English exam.
“As for Pringle’s comprehension and writing skills, he surely wouldn’t pass a Year 6 English exam.”
It’s true: Phil is a singularly clueless individual, which makes it astonishing that he had the effrontery to claim that he had received a PhD. Phil’s conduct with respect to his fake credentials is an insult to all those intelligent and talented individuals who have worked long and hard to gain genuine qualifications – which, in the case of PhDs, are awarded to the best of the best, and then only subject to them having measured up to the most rigorous and exacting standards.
Phil’s touting of his so-called PhD is to academia what his preaching is to the true Gospel: it cheapens it, and, in so doing, it casts an ugly slur on the character of all those who labour with integrity. While most learning has value in a utilitarian sense, academic pursuits are, at heart, about something much more – they are about deeper things, and this is particularly so in the case of theological studies. But Phil Pringle is not the slightest bit interested in erudition – he does not love knowledge any more than he loves the truth. For him, a PhD is about cachet: it’s about selling more books and receiving more invitations for speaking engagements. It’s about money, and it’s about “being greeted in the marketplace” and “sitting at the head tables at banquets”.
Just like your “movement”, Phil, you diminish and devalue every single thing with which you have the slightest involvement (if anyone doubts that, they should just ask Kong Hee). You denigrate those who criticise you, but the sad truth is that it is impossible to overstate the egregiousness of your multitudinous errors.
Hi there “Philz a Phrog” – PhD students, in my experience (I’ve met a few over the years,) go for their Doctorate on “Philosophy” because this allows them to wax eloquent during the writing of their Thesis and to get a shot at the national and/or international speaking circuit and charge top $ for their appearances after they qualify – a reward worthy of all the hard work done by them as students…
After study time is over, the Thesis is quite often converted into a book and sold so that they can either recover the cost of their study time (that can run into tens of thousands of dollars – more if the institution they studied at/through is a reputable one – quality lecturing, regular assessments, solid support and tuition etc) or so that the viewing public can get a taste of what they may have to offer after graduation and their lecture tours begin.
So, if Phil really did do a ‘Thesis’ and it passed with flying colours – where is it??? Did it get buried, never to see daylight again ? Is it on display at a website or other online media facility? I must confess, I am yet to hear of anybody on this blog or any other who has mentioned the fact that Phil’s ‘Thesis’ is somewhere on display – and pardon me if it is, but have the experts tested the quality of it yet, and if it is not on display (anywhere in the world,) then why not???
Can we have a peek at it please Phil, and more importantly, can those who are qualified to give out PhD’s please have a look too, and let’s hear from the experts on whether ‘Doctor Phil’ actually got his PhD legitimately, or whether the alleged degree mill that gave it to him should be shut down permanently???
Maybe it’s a book, still in the pipeline, entitled “Your Best life Now…”?
Total scripture twisting by phil, what a shocker! Twists Gods Word and talks about his favourite subject – worldly success.
Thanks c3 churchwatch for opening my eyes. The vileness of greed and manipulation that these wolves operate in
Robert Kiyosaki and Mike Maloney were heavily pushing silver investing a few years ago (at the same time as Gerald Celente, Max Keiser and Eric Sprott).
(Recall that Max Keiser was also pushing Bitcoin around that time, and he’s now got his own version called Maxcoin. These are crypto / virtual / digital – currencies.)
Phil Pringle referencing Kiyosaki during a ‘Christian’ teaching reinforces how ridiculous Phil Pringle is. His mind is NOT renewed (Romans 12:2). Pringle is a very lost soul.
Poor old phil is proving himself to be quite the philistine. No wonder he has to include references to famous, wealthy people in ‘church’..very 1990’s sales conference talk. Even phil knows that there just isn’t enough talk in the Bible about making yourself worldly wealthy. What a disappointment that must be for him.
