Career
Campbell is popular in Historicist circles because of his Reformed theology in the identification of the Papacy as the Antichrist of Biblical prophecy. Campbell"s ministry, including his website, has now been closed. Campbell began preaching in May 1974, and preached his first sermon on Bible prophecy on 24 September 1978.
He was officially ordained to the ministry by Doctor Francis Thomas on 18 July 1988.
He graduated from the University of London with a bachelor"s degree in history, and from the Queen"s University of Belfast with a Certificate in Biblical Studies. He held the post of head of religious studies at Newtownabbey Community High School near Belfast where he was subject to at least one Ministry of Education inspection because of concerns about his teaching methods.
He holds fiercely anti-Catholic views (referring to Catholics as worshipping a "wafer God") and uses his website to disseminate these sentiments. However, his ministry was decidedly centred in Ulster, and many of his messages dealt with the political situation there.
Campbell has contact with the Christian Assemblies International.
Campbell was sent a death threat on 7 June 1999, in the form of some mailed ammunition and a warning to leave the country in seventy-two hours. The threat was disregarded by the police. Campbell opposes miscegenation.
In a lecture that he gave in the United States, he states that the white race is superior and that black people are the "beasts of the field" referred to in the Bible.
The Sunday Life reported in December 2013, that Campbell"s church had closed. Speaking to Sunday Life about the closure, Campbell said he had been seriously ill earlier that year.
