New Independent Fundamentalist Baptist Movement

The New Independent Fundamentalist Baptist Movement (New IFB for short) (also called Andersonism) is an extremist Fundamentalist Christian cult group made up of disgruntled Independent Baptists who believe that the old Baptists have lost their luster, value, and ability to preach the Gospel. The head honcho of the group is Steven Anderson of the Faithful Word Baptist Church, who is said to have started the movement around 2017, and his goal is for Christians to return to what they believe Baptists used to preach, thinking the modern churches have become too liberal. Even other Independent Baptists are considered too soft. The group's churches have essentially the same views that Anderson espouses, and they tend to hold multiple conferences each year, including the Red Hot Preaching Conference and the Make America Straight Again Conference. There are known to be over 32 churches worldwide, but due to the constant infighting, nobody knows who's actually part of the movement.

Beliefs
The New IFB's theology is largely controlled by Anderson. They view the King James Bible as the only legitimate Bible and believe in salvation through Jesus Christ. With a simple glance, this is where the similarities end with most Independent Baptists. They refer to homosexuals as sodomites and pedophiles that are reprobates beyond God's grace, and should all be executed per. Holocaust denial is also to be expected from New IFB churches, and their antisemitism mainly stems from the idea that God abandoned Israel as the chosen people, and now it's the Christians' turn. With salvation, they believe in faith alone and to an extent, believe repentance isn't as necessary as it is. They have even burned books and Bibles that mentioned it. With the views on salvation, their pettiness extends into running a dead, but archived, website called Repentance Blacklist, and they made a list of all those who disagree with them. The list includes other cranks such as Jack Chick, Ray Comfort, and Kirk Cameron. Sending out tracts for evangelism is discouraged because Anderson believes witnessing should only be based on dialogue. They also believe that the Pre-Tribulation Rapture is heresy, and that the Pre-Wrath Rapture is the real deal. Dispensationalism is also considered to be false doctrine by the New IFB wackos.

Former pastors
The New IFB is like a soap opera or reality show. These episodes are almost better than Gordon Ramsay. You guys are always in some sort of internal struggle for power, at least how it seems from an outsider like me.

Other figures

 * Richard Shawn Barnish (GodGunsGutsGlory) - Blog constantly chronicling New IFB talking points, or proving how gays are actually pedophiles, and even recently fell into COVID-19 denialism. The blog has been inactive since January 2021. Recently, Barnish, may have left the New IFB.
 * Sean Harrington - Known for God Hates Video Games In short, the video is a typical anti-video game rant that involves stereotypical talking points about them being a waste of time, and promoting violence with Mordern Warfare 2's "No Russian" mission being misrepresented to prove his point, and it then devolves into incoherent conspiracies about Jews and "Bill population control Gates".
 * Benjamin Naim - Once ran a channel called Ben the Baptist.
 * Paul Wittenberger - Filmmaker who worked as a crew member for The Green Hornet (2011), and minister of propaganda, with Framing The World as his platform. Has made documentaries including Deported, which is about how Anderson got deported from African countries such as Botswana, and What in the World are They Spraying?, a documentary about Chemtrails.

Documentaries
The Andersonites and Wittenberger produce "documentaries" that reaffirm their beliefs and use fancy-schmancy editing tricks. They can either be full blown documentaries or edited versions of sermons from New IFB pastors.
 * After the Tribulation - A documentary about why the Pre-Tribulation Rapture is a heresy and why instead there is a Pre-Wrath Rapture. The documentary also talks about New World Order. Kent Hovind was featured in the documentary.
 * AIDS: The Judgement of God - An anti-LGBT sermon by Anderson with some editing tricks and news reels to show how the AIDS epidemic is the judgement of God against LGBT people. Anderson said during the sermon that LGBT people should be executed by the government as the way to cure the AIDS.
 * Babylon USA - A documentary explaining how the United States will be essential for the establishment of the New World Order. Texe Marrs and Kent Hovind were featured in the documentary.
 * Failure to Obey - The story of how Anderson got beaten up by U.S Border Patrol.
 * Flouride: Poison on Tap - A documentary on how flouride in water is actually dangerous.
 * Going Back to the Greek - A documentary about the KJV and Greek. Got Anderson into some hot water among followers for discussing with a Calvinist named Dave Johannsson.
 * The Great Culling - A movie about depopulation.
 * Marching to Zion - Possibly their most controversial documentary. It is mainly about why the Jews are no longer God's chosen people, and actually worship Satan, and that their expected Messiah is actually the Antichrist. Also, Anderson straight up lied to rabbis for them to speak and appear in the documentary, claiming he was working with PBS. As long as the ends justify the means, otherwise, Steve and his buds could face a good heaping of . Also, Texe Marrs is in there too.
 * Marxist Lucifer King - A sermon by Anderson with some editing tricks and news reels to show that Martin Luther King Jr., was wicked and adulterous. Also mentions how his advisors were Commies. What's admittedly true was that he wasn't a saint.
 * New World Order Bible Versions - A documentary explaining why the KJV is the only legitimate Bible translation and how translations after 1611 are all corrupted by the New World Order.
 * SCIENCE Falsely So Called - Documentary that involves stereotypical creation talking points, and so many Nazi references that it’s embarrassing. Kent Hovind appears in it as well.
 * The Sodomite Deception - An anti-LGBT documentary by Shelley explaining how the LGBT people are contributing for the collapse of the modern society. The documentary praised historical laws that established death penalty for homosexuality and condemned more recent laws that favored the LGBT rights. Anderson, Jimenez, Mejia and Thompson were featured in the documentary.
 * The Truth About Birth Control - An mysogynist sermon by Anderson with some editing tricks and news reels to show how the birth control pills causes early silent abortion and how the birth control itself is sinful. Anderson claimed during the sermon that womens should stay at home multiplying babies and also claimed that womens working is from the Satan's agenda.

Present day deplatforming
Swirling controversies, infighting, and a social media crackdown on New IFB properties have considerably diminished the movement. Anderson's entire YouTube ecosystem was completely purged in the summer of 2020, reducing their online presence even further. The group continues to attract controversy because of its virulent hate speech and extreme opposition to homosexuality, and while their sphere of influence is far from what it was in the late-2010s, they won't be gone anytime soon.
