100% Proof that Todd Bentley is a False Teacher!
A greater delusion is coming at some point. Do not forget what we saw happen at Lakeland with the apostacy unfolding before our very eyes. If you are looking towards Tod Bentley, RUN! Flee from the likes of the rebellion, deceit and witchcraft in this man.

Rick Joyner – No Grace for Grady
I realize this thing between Lee Grady and Rick Joyner happened a while back — unless a new event occured between them — but with Tod Bentley on the rise again, I think it needs to be known that Rick Joyner, is infatuated with TB and still endorses him. Joyner calls everyone else into accountability but NEVER yet has held TB accountable for the lies and heresies he taught. Truly it is a hypocrisy in the most highest and manipulative way.

Evil sign and wonder — “jesus” helps surgeon
Following photo and info gotten here: http://heisback.com.au/Maitreya_and_Jesus.html#top at a maitreya site. Supposingly the left hand on the doctor’s shoulder is a supernatural picture of “jesus.” Do you see the long claw-like finger nails? If this photo is legit — meaning an actual supernatural photo of something – then I ask, would you want that “jesus” over you? One not only with long claws but one who also is the embodiment of maitreya — who is a liar and a deceiver? Church, these are the signs and wonders the anti-christ will come with. For this is NOT the real Jesus below! Continue to test all things.
A doctor from Nicaragua came to the United States to study. He prayed to Jesus for help with his final exam — on surgery. A photograph was taken in the operating theatre, and when developed showed the figure of Jesus in the centre, between the doctor on the right and the anaesthetist on the left (not shown here). Jesus’s left hand is placed on doctor’s shoulder for support.
(Benjamin Creme’s Master confirms that the Master Jesus Who helped with the operation, is the figure on the left.)

Amazing Cartoon from 50 years ago predicted today!
Parents, want to be able to explain what is going on in politics today? Then get your children to watch this old cartoon from 50 years ago! This is absolutely amazing! It’s for everybody; young and old, all races and creeds, both conservative and liberal! There’s only one thing wrong with it. The cartoon characters had much more guts at the end of it than we do!
Obama Cult is building a new religion
Once again, music as a powerful force to hypnotize and indoctrinate it’s listeners. Being a music lover, my flesh so wanted to get up and boogie to this. BUT I know wickedness when I hear it. Lucifer comes as an angel of light. Lucifer will ALWAYS appeal to the flesh. He will always appeal to pride.
The chants of “yes we can” reminds me of spolied brats smart mouthing their parents after being told “NO!” Think about that one!
Don’t think for one moment this man is not building his own religion. He most certainly is! And it revolves all around HIM!
If you are a Christian and follow this man, there is absolutely NO excuse for your ignorance at this point. Don’t anyone come here telling me, “Uh, you ain’t speaking in love.” Don’t do it. I will delete your comment over this. I will not waste my time defending the truth with you. Some of us don’t have time or the intestinal fortitude to give you a spoonful of sugar to help the medicene go down! Get over yourselves and start testing things for yourself! WAKE UP!
The Truth Divides
Our brother, ProclaimHisWord, gives us this. Thank you brother for speaking truth!
10 things you are not suppose to know about the swine flu!
Ignorance of the people is what enemies use to get in power and eventually leads to our bondage. Let us get educated, people.
Think about this: Suppose, just suppose the “mark” is right around the corner in the near future. If government can condition us all now, to just line up like dumb sheep and get a shot anytime they say so– how much easier at some point, to get us all to line up to get micro-chipped like cattle?
Barack Obama – Narcissist or Merely Narcissistic?
Truth Speaker Mike Savage tells it like it is. I believe this is the truth and nothing but the truth about the man who is in the Whitehouse. Wake up America!
No Explanation Needed
What does Hitler, Jim Jones, Charles Manson and others like them have in common?
Watch and see.
Some quotes from Charles Manson. Clean it up a little bit, give it a hair cut, put a suit and tie on it and well…no need to explain.
Symptom 1: The Narcissist has grandoise fantasies with an exaggeration of accomplishements and their place in the world.
“Why do I want to go out and work for. I’ve got all the money. I’m the king, man. I run the the underworld, guy. I decide who does what and where they do it at…I make the money, man. I roll in nickles. The game is mine. I deal the cards.”
“I don’t break laws. I make laws…I’m the king of this whole planet. I’m gonna rule this whole world.”
“I’m the pope. I’m ten times the pope. Fifty times the pope.”
Symptom 2: Extreme selfishness and self-centeredness with lack of empathy for others and a sense of entitlement.
“Remorse for what? You people have done everything in the world against me. Doesn’t that give me equal right? I can do anythng I want to do to you people at anytime I want to.”
Symptom 3. Overly sensitive to criticism or any challenge to their false sense image.
“You mean you’re gonna put your importance up–like you’re somebody? Shut up and keep your mouth shut…You don’t run a damn thing. You don’t run nothing here.”
Symptom 4: (One they did not show) Paranoid. With good reason, for they KNOW they have messed over people big time!
WARNING! PANDEMIC AND OBAMAS PLAN TO VERICHIP YOU
Christian or not, Republican or Democrat, rich or poor, black or white, old or young — I can only pass along what I believe is the truth. If I am wrong, then the only thing I’ve lost is any credibility. But, I am willing to look like a fool in order to warn of a potential danger or threat. But if this is the truth, we are in some trouble. It appears this man has done his homework.
This is shocking information. Please at least look at it.

WARNING! H1N1 VACCINE AIDS RISK WARNS TOP INFECTIOUS DISEASE DOCTORS
Vials will hold multi-doses of the vaccine, which will cause a risk of AIDS and other infectious diseases! Ask yourself if you thnk Obama and his family will be “SHARING” a vial with anyone!
It is done this way to innoculate people QUICKLY!
This alone reminds me of Jim Jones when he told his followers, “Quickly quickly!” in getting his people to take the poison. This whole scene is being manufactured to make people not even use their brains and even think about it. One day it will come upon us SOON. Be deciding now how you will respond!
The way I see it is, refuse it and take our chances of getting the “flu.” Praying that God protects us. Or take the vaccine and pray like all get out we don’t get sick from it. Be ready for quarantine or FEMA camps if you decide not to get it. IF that is part of their plan, also. We will know within a few weeks. In the meantime do not be apathetic about this. Your life and the life of your loved ones depend upon you knowing the truth and what God would have you to do.
WAKE UP AMERICA! RESIST this evil! That is unless you trust it.
Please pass this on to everybody! At least give people a warning on what is to come!
Sustainable Development (part 1)

America’s Pledge of Allegiance: what it means
You don’t like my country? You want to change it? Then GET OUT! I do not care who you are. Family, friend, foe, … makes no difference to me. You will never have my respect. Some of us are being prepared to spill our blood for our beliefs because the people YOU trust will want to kill us. But we will not give up. We will not lay down without a whimper. Some of you are so hypocritical, you will not even come out and say what you are; Socialist, communist, Fascist PIGS. You think you can send an occasional funny email while ignoring the great divide between us. Not anymore. America; my country. Not yours. Want something different? Then GET OUT and move to Cuba or Russia.

UN Chiefs Warning: 4 Months To Prevent End Of The World
Airing date of this video clip August 12, 2009
People, we need to wake up. If this United Nations chief said this, then what is the United Nations plan to “save the world” if we only have “four months” to do it in?
Depopulation, anybody? Oh but wait…I’m just one of those conspiracy nuts. Maybe, but I’m trying to read between the lines here. What are you doing?
Also, we may want to ask why does Sean Hannity treat it so lightly? Is it because he is just clueless? (You have to know he knows more than we do.) OR is Hannity some kind of puppet with his apathetic, frivolous and joking view, meant to dumb us down more?
Put your thinking caps on people!
The COMING NEW AGE- ONE WORLD RELIGION-1
Saints, you must know — in order for these wicked people to get their plan going, they will depopulate the earth, and kill christians.
——————————————————————-
Lucifer Publishing formed in 1922. It was and IS TODAY the publisher for the United Nations. They changed the name to Lucis Trust when it raised suspicions. They named the company after their god. They have a radio station called Lucis Trust and a website where they will teach you the ‘Esoteric meaning of Lucifer’. You will discover how the government and this religion and the NWO all fits together and is coming to a head SOON. They want Christianity GONE. It is in their way and it is holding them back. Some have came out and plainly said Christians should die. A few of those names involved with this thinking and religious government are: Barbara Marx Hubbard, Helena Blavatsky, S. Acharya, Foster and Alice Baily (The Secret Doctrine, The Spirit of Freemasonry), Manly P. Hall who was a 33 degree Mason and wrote America’s Assignment with Destiny. Blavatsky was an occultist and worshiper of satan yet the Masons wrote a book about her theosophical writings and called her a ‘mason.’
They have said the end is going to be their religion against us- Christians. They choose to believe satan’s fall was a “sacrifice” and he was from Venus. They are being deceived by Satan who is lying to them GREATLY. Some of the people fighting the NWO are actually helping through this religion. Jordan Maxwell, you will find out plays a BIG part in this religion-he gets defensive when you point out the connection. He is blinded by the spirits involved. Zeitgeist’s Peter Joseph is also in this religion and is having a Z day in March for Venus but he talks about the NWO in his films. He too gets very defensive when you connect his religion and the NWO.

Imagine a World with no God
Imagine a World with no God
PSALM 37:32
The wicked watches the righteous, and seeks to slay him.
Years ago, Lucifer gave John Lennon the song, “Imagine.” If you don’t know it, pull up the words on the internet, for I dare not defile my blog with his words. The world listened to and heard that song of Satan, so today, I’m asking all of you who hate God, His people, and his values, to imagine a world without God.
Oh, but I don’t hate no one,you say. It’s just that you and I believe differently. You are just a fanatic.
Oh yes, we do believe differently. And yes, I am a fanatic. Your idea of love is so different from those of us who love God. See, we believe in God so much that we would dare speak the truth to you, in spite of you hating us, in spite of you ridiculing us, mocking us. And in some cases, in spite of you murdering us.
Love does not always shut up for the sake of peace.
Your idea of love is can’t we all just get along? But if not, for the sake of peace, just shut up! And some of you secretly working behind the scenes to make people like me shut up. But you are too much of a coward to come out and say it. Reminds me of that old song, “Smiling faces sometimes pretend to be your friend.”
You are this way because you are vile, wretched, miserable, blind and poor and do not know it. All because you have hardened your hearts to the truth of God.
You have set up for yourselves your very own image of who and what God is. You do this without having a clue who He is because you follow other gods; gods man makes, making them in images meant for you to follow. Because well, uh Oprah said so — or some other wicked elitist who cares absolutely nothing for your wretched deceived soul.
So in your “quest for God” you go and buy the latest book written by lying devils! Thinking you will find the truth there when God Himself has given us His Word — The Holy Bible. Oh, yes! You are vile, wretched, miserable, blind and poor and you do not know it!
Somehow the Word of God is not good enough for you. Has it ever occurred to you, that maybe just maybe it is something the devil would NEVER want you to read? Stop being a coward and pick it up and open it! There is no other way!
Yes, so imagine. Imagine right now all those in your life who stand for truth and light suddenly being taken from you in the middle of the night. Imagine them being killed for the sole purpose because they are “in the way” of vile evil wicked men and women in higher places than either of us can imagine creating the “perfect” world among yourselves.
And there will be many of us that will not love our lives to the end. We are being prepared for the wickedness of hell to come against us. We hear the voice of our Shepherd and we will follow no other. Even if it costs us our lives. For we know in Whom we believe and we are not persuaded to follow the wicked abominations coming upon the earth..
Imagine maybe a friend, or a family member or a neighbor or that nice stranger at some time who you knew something was just different about them, but could not put your finger on it — and now they are gone.
Would you be one of the ones who would be rejoicing because after all, “All those people who loved God now are gone. We can change the world!” Or would you be sad?
I suspect if you say sad, you will get over it soon enough because the Holy Spirit, the Discerner of hearts has just left the earth in a big way and you would be left morbidly alone with what is left of your wretched conscious. But not to fear — government will offer you programs on how to deal with the “loss” of those who “were in the way.” You’ll get counseled. But you will be counseled by devils! And you will know it not because there will be no one around to tell you any differently! You’ll get the latest drugs to help you “cope.” Free of course! You will stay doped up until all you know is what government wants you to know!
Imagine a world of no kindness, no sweetness. If there is anything that even resembles it — guess what? It will probably be a devil still out to deceive you.
Perhaps God in his mercy will open your eyes. But that will depend upon how much you actually want the truth. If not, then expect more deception coming at you. For when you love lies, God sends delusions.
Some are thinking this very minute: She thinks she is better than me. No. But rather, it is YOU who think yourself better than me. I KNOW I need a Savior. I KNOW I am a sinner. But YOU — whoever you are, wherever you are, it is YOU who thinks you are better than I when you reject what Jesus Christ did on the Cross for all of mankind! It is YOU who think yourself better when you try to find “another way.”
God said the road is narrow and few be that find it. That is the truth. Jesus said, “I am the Way, the Truth and the Life.” But you call Him a liar when you try to find another way. You will be judged one day for rejecting His Son.
Imagine this world of no God. You will find it is a dog-eat-dog world with those in power holding the strings to everything. Your soul will begin to experience such complete darkness. It will take a Holy God at this point to even keep your soul. That is if He even wants to. You would have to repent and tell him you are sorry for following other gods and for not getting on that narrow road He told us to get on.
Imagine everybody around you is just like you. Selfish, proud, abominable, liars, greedy, out for their selves. Oh yes, you will be like them. You will have to be in order to survive. Imagine needing one kind word, one word of encouragement. You will not get it. If you do, it most likely will not be sincere. It will just be a lie to get you to continue to follow their plan of submission to their wicked government.
Just think: Finally all us God people are out of the way! Look at all the fun you’ll have though. You can have all the homosexual parades you want, all the vile porn and nudity you desire, all the drugs, sex and booze. You can sit in front of the T.V. day after day and get to watch Oprah! Yeah! And let us not forget the likes of Madonna and other celebrities. You will get to hear how important they are and gee, well, you just should thank your lucky stars they care so much about you that they would even take the time out of their precious day to point them to the god in you.
Oh and let us not forget — the unborn babies — that you and the others will want dead. You will continue in the abortions. Only a few will be able to have babies anyway. Government will end up deciding if you are worthy or not to be a parent.
Oh, and if you do have a baby and at some point may be developing some kind of conscious (not a good thing to the government) then they will call you unfit and take that baby from you!
But it won’t matter. All the people that stood for your rights are gone by now.
At some point YOU will not even matter to those in power. Once they are done using you, you’re dead too. But, the difference will be you will burn in hell for not repenting for following the gods that have been set up on earth.
Know this all inhabitants of the earth: The day will come when all those who have been slain for the truth of God — all those whose lives meant nothing to this world, the unborn babies, the true martyrs from age to age to present time — their very blood will cry out for vengeance. And a Holy, awesome, terrible God will hear their cries of His people and He Himself will come against all the inhabitants of the earth.
You can run and try to hide but He sees you. You will BEG for the mountains to fall upon you to escape his holy awesome terrible wrath against you!
But God says to you NOW…. Come now, and let us reason together, though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
ISAIAH 55:6,7 Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:
Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
“Progressive” New World Order agenda for you Child
What is the purpsoe of Obama wanting your children? They are to lead the world in the direction he and the New world Order want. A world of no compassion for the elderly, weak, infirmed and those not useful to their agenda. A New Age of enlightenment for man. A New Age of no God. A New Age of man realizing the “god” in them, therefore all that represent the truth of the real God is hated.
They make light of the fact of microchips in the brain — do not let their levity fool you, people. This admistration is vile.
Satan comes after your children with a vengence, parents! Parents start teaching your children the truth. The day may come when you may not be around them to teach them the dfference between a truth and a lie. Their souls are at stake!
God cast down the wicked in high places who exalt themselves over You! Cast down and remove them from the very earth and cast them into the very depths of hell!
Lord come quickly!
Magnify the Lord oh Saints of God! Magnify His holy Name for He is still greatly to be praised!

Lucifer’s very own “bible”–The GREEN Bible!
I wonder if this is the bible Rick Warren and other “greenie” preachers use? We have the right to know, don’t we, because people like Rick Warren are helping to lead this movement! He is false, he is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. He is an apostate and an heretic.
The ”green” movement is about saving the planet. It is about something called “sustainable development” where man kills millions of people in order to “save the earth!” It is the same as sacrificing people for the sake of the earth! Does Rick Warren and the other so called “men of God” involoved in this in ANY way, know this? I would think he does as deep as he has gotten in it and if he does know, he is out to save his very own skin, people! For those who are not part of this NWO of saving the earth will be killed. Christians mainly because we care more about souls than we do the planet. Watch the video and see where their allegiance lies. It is not with God or with saving souls! It is all about the earth. No mention of a holy God, Jesus, or sin and wickedness or salvation. Just saving the planet.
“…we’re hoping a very wide swath will come in and we’re certainly seeing it in the culture of evangelicals, mainline protestants, even Roman Catholics. Really starting to get on board with the sustainability (means people must die to balance the earth!) green movement… mostly on the conservative side, why are we so concerned with saving the earth, protecting the earth and the next life is most important? And that’s been the biggest critisim and so and we’re focusing here and the critisms are we’re focusing on the wrong thing on things of this world and not the next…the second critisim is… and again I’m speaking for mostly conservative christians when I say this, that the goal here is to save souls, not save the earth and anything that destracts from saving souls is wrong headed.”
You had better believe it is wrong headed you lying devil! Do you not know what this means? It means the aposotacy has gotten SO bad that there are those right now WITHIN the church being esteemed by the wicked for heir allegiance with them!
See how his words were to divide? “Mostly conservative christians.” Yep, that means me. Because I happen to believe in worshipping GOD over your new age earth agenda! You worship Baal!
Colossians 3: 1-2 If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth.
The first mention of worship is with Abraham: Genesis 22:4-6
Then on the third day Abraham lifted his eyes and saw the place afar off. And Abraham said to his young men, “Stay here with the donkey; the lad and I will go yonder and worship.”
Abraham was going to worship GOD not the earth.
The very last mention in Revelation 22:8-9
Now I, John, saw and heard these things. And when I heard and saw, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel who showed me these things.
Then he said to me, “See that you do not do that. For I am your fellow servant, and of your brethren the prophets, and of those who keep the words of this book. Worship God.”
From the beginning to the end, the Bible tells us to worship God. Not the hosts of heaven and not the earth or the creation, but God. Yet we have preachers this day helping this Luciferic doctrine take over the world. Rick Warren is one of them! You can try and paint it real pretty and say, “well he just cares about the earth, that is all.” No. He has compromised the truth of the Gospel in so many ways. For him or any other christian be part of this is an abomination! It is more of the falling away, church. If you are in this, come out of it. Lest you follow doctrines of demons.
To see this vile work of Lucifer, go here: http://greenletterbible.com/about.php
Are they actually selling this in “christian” bookstores? I can’t remember the last time I even went into one because they are too depressing. But if I go in one, and find this, you can bet I will say something!
They have corrupted the Word of God! I will not apologise for my anger. If God tells me not to be afraid of lying deceivers, then I will not and will not bow to this abomination. For they lie! They lead people to destruction with their lies!
Gaia Worship — The New World Religion that hates Christianity
Follwing article gotten here:
http://contenderministries.org/UN/gaia.php
Anyone who has studied the global environmental movement has no doubt heard the term “Gaia”. Gaia is a revival of Paganism that rejects Christianity, considers Christianity its biggest enemy, and views the Christian faith as its only obstacle to a global religion centered on Gaia worship and the uniting of all life forms around the goddess of “Mother Earth”. A cunning mixture of science, paganism, eastern mysticism, and feminism have made this pagan cult a growing threat to the Christian Church. Gaia worship is at the very heart of today’s environmental policy. The Endangered Species Act, The United Nation’s Biodiversity Treaty and the Presidents Council on Sustainable Development are all offspring of the Gaia hypothesis of saving “Mother Earth”.
RedeemedHippie:[Please know anytime you hear or see these words, Sustainable Development, it means literally killing thousands and millions of people to sustain THEIR world. This is nothing short of human sacrifice in order to save the planet.]
This religious movement, with cult-like qualities, is being promoted by leading figures and organizations such as former Vice President Albert Gore, broadcaster Ted Turner, and the United Nations and it’s various NGO’s. Al Gore’s book “Earth in the Balance” is just one of many books that unabashedly proclaims the deity of Earth and blames the falling away from this Pagan God on the environmentally unfriendly followers of Jesus Christ. The United Nations has been extremely successful in infusing the “Green Religion” into an international governmental body that has an increasing affect and control over all of our lives.
RedeemedHippie:[You may get mad at me, but we can put Rick Warren in there now with his greenie outlook on everything. The question we need to ask, is he aware of sustainable development? Is so, then why has he not come out with it? It is impossible for me to believe he knows nothing about it as he is so tied into the greenie movement now. Would he even listen?]
So, what is this new cult of Gaia? It is basically a rehashed, modernized version of the paganism condemned by God in the Bible. Science, evolution theory, and a space age mentality have given it a new face, and made it sound more credible to a modern world, but it is the same paganism in all of its evils. There have been other religious movements that have presented similar revelations about the deity of a living earth, but Gaia has succeeded in uniting the environmental movement, the new age movement, Eastern religions, and even the leaders of many Christian denominations behind a bastardized version of paganism where the others weren’t able to.
The Gaia hypothesis can be credited to James Lovelock. Lovelock worked for NASA during the 1960’s as a consultant to the “life on Mars” Viking spacecraft project. Lovelock’s theory claims that the earth’s “biota”, tightly coupled with its environment, act as a single, self regulating living system in such a way as to maintain the conditions that are suitable for life. This living system, he believed, was the result of a meta-life form that occupied our planet billions of years ago and began a process of transforming this planet into its own substance. All of the lifeforms on this planet, according to Lovelock, are a part of Gaia – a part of one spirit goddess that sustains life on earth. Since this transformation into a living system, he theorizes, the interventions of Gaia have brought about the evolving diversity of living creatures on planet Earth. From Lovelock’s perspective in space he saw not a planet, but a self-evolving and self-regulating living system. His theory presents earth not as the rock that it is, but as a living being. He named this being Gaia, after the Greek goddess that was once believed to have drawn the living world forth from Chaos.
RedeemedHippie:[Red flag! If this is what they believe, then it will take more chaos to appease their god -- one of creating such chaos in order to balance the earth once again.]
The idea of Earth as a living, divine spirit is not a new one. Plato said “We shall affirm that the cosmos, more than anything else, resembles most closely that living Creature of which all other living creatures, severally or genetically, are portion; a living creature which is fairest of all and in ways most perfect.” As today’s version of paganism, Gaia is eagerly accepted by the new age movement and fits neatly into eastern mysticism, but science was needed to gather in the evolutionists and science-minded humanists. For these people, Gaia was made palatable by Lovelock’s Daisyworld model, a mathematical and scientific theory designed to refute the criticisms of Darwin’s groupies. Just as evolution eliminates the need for a divine creator, the Daisyworld model provided a theory of evolving life on earth that incorporates natural selection with a world that is interconnected. It eliminates a personal yet separate God, and makes humans a part of the divine spirit that is Gaia.
More appealing to the New Agers and the interfaith movement is the mystical side of Gaia. They can easily relate to the belief that humans can have mystical experiences or a spiritual relationship with Gaia.
RedeemedHippie:[Kind of reminds me of last years' revival of all the out of body experiences and we were to believe it was of God! Reminds me of the New Age Mystism that has crept into the church. Reminds me of so many things that have been taught as THE Gospel of Christ.]
A connectedness to nature and the belief that humans are a part of this collective consciousness called Gaia appeals to them. Gaia teaches that an “Earth spirit”, goddess, or planetary brain must be protected. It is this belief that fuels the environmental movement, sustainable development, and a global push for the return of industrialized nations to a more primitive way of life. Just as with the evolutionists, the humanists, and the other pagan religions of the world, Gaia has named Christianity as the obstacle to human evolution and our spiritual destiny. A document mandated by the U.N.-sponsored Convention on Biological Diversity, the Global Biodiversity Assessment, explicitly refers to Christianity as a faith that has set humans apart from nature and stripped nature of its sacred qualities. The document states:
Conversion to Christianity has therefore meant an abandonment of an affinity with the natural world for many forest dwellers, peasants, fishers all over the world …The northeastern hilly states of India bordering China and Myanmar supported small scale, largely autonomous shifting cultivator societies until the 1950’s. These people followed their own religious traditions that included setting apart between 10% and 30% of the landscape as sacred groves and ponds.1
RedeemedHippie:[Reminds me of the whore who pretends to be the Bride of Christ calling anyone that would dare test their teachings -- religious. You can bet there are those who are embedded with this.]
While condemning Christianity as the root of all ecological evil, the document goes on to praise Buddhism and Hinduism as they “did not depart as drastically from the perspective of humans as members of a community of beings including other living and non-living elements”. Non-Christian religions are definitely favored by the global government as good stewards of Mother Earth.
Members of this “Green Religion” will all agree that the Earth is in a crisis state and this ecological emergency is the result of Christian traditions. They believe that the Judeo Christian belief that God assigned man to rule over the earth has caused us to exploit and abuse it. Monotheism, they assert, has separated humans from their ancient connection to the earth, and to reverse this trend governments, the media, our education system, artists, and other areas of influence must revive earth-centered myth and reconnect us to Earth’s spirit. Al Gore, in his book Earth in the Balance, expounds on this view:
“The richness and diversity of our religious tradition throughout history is a spiritual resource long ignored by people of faith, who are often afraid to open their minds to teachings first offered outside their own systems of belief.
RedeemedHippie:[This is blatant compromise to a Christian. We believe Jesus told the truth when He said, "I am the way, the truth and the life." Period.]
But the emergence of a civilization in which knowledge moves freely and almost instantaneously through the world has spurred a renewed investigation of the wisdom distilled by all faiths. This panreligious perspective may prove especially important where our global civilization’s responsibility for the earth is concerned.” (pp. 258-259)
Gore praises the Eastern religions and new age spiritualism, while blaming Christianity for the elimination of the ancient goddess religion, and calls for a new spiritual relationship between man and earth.
“The spiritual sense of our place in nature predates Native American cultures; increasingly it can be traced to the origins of human civilization. A growing number of anthropologists and archaeomythologists, such as Marija Gimbutas and Riane Esler argue that the prevailing ideology of belief in prehistoric Europe and much of the world was based on the worship of a single earth goddess, who was assumed to be the fount of all life and who radiated harmony among all living things. Much of the evidence for the existence of this primitive religion comes from the many thousands of artifacts uncovered in ceremonial sites. These sites are so widespread that they seem to confirm the notion that a goddess religion was ubiquitous through much of the world until the antecedents of today’s religions, most of which still have a distinctly masculine orientation…swept out of India and the Near East, almost obliterating belief in the goddess. The last vestige of organized goddess worship was eliminated by Christianity as late as the fifteenth century in Lithuania.”
RedeemedHippie:[The New World Order intends to bring it back.]
If Gore had read the Bible he would know exactly why Christians will not open their mind to these other beliefs as he suggests. The Bible very clearly warns us not to.
“So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness. See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the basic principles of this world rather than on Christ. For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, and you have been given fullness in Christ, who is the head over every power and authority.” Colossians 2:6-10
Gore also might want to read Romans 1:18 – 25:
“The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness, since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities – his eternal power and divine nature – have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse. For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles. Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the creator – who is forever praised. Amen.
When men began to worship the creation instead of the Creator, the wrath of God was revealed. As societies begin again to turn from the truth of the creation and worship nature, “Mother Earth”, or any other deceiving spirit, the evil and deception in their new religion will be made evident by God’s response.
Romans 1:26 – 32
Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion. Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless. Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.
Our societies today are becoming a picture of this wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. As the Christian church is brought into the fold by organizations such as the National Council of Churches and the National Religious Partnership for the Environment, we can be sure the results will be a further decline into immorality and chaos. There is a drive by these organizations and others to meld Earth worship with Christianity in the name of tolerance, biodiversity, sustainability, and the preservation of Mother Earth. It is a battle for Christianity and an attack on biblical truth. When this pagan agenda reaches your church or your community, how will you respond? Will you speak up for the truth of God or will you exchanged the glory of the immortal God for a global compromise that is leading countless people into spiritual darkness? As followers of Jesus Christ we know the truth and must boldly proclaim it. The opposition is fierce and to those who don’t know the joy of a relationship with God, it is an appealing proposition. It is accepting of everything, intolerant of nothing, it deifies the environmentalist, worships the feminist, eliminates all responsibility for sin, and frees you to embrace your sinful nature. The truth of the Bible must first be taught in our churches, and then shared with the world. As churches begin to fall away from the faith and corrupt the Word of God, it is left to Bible-believing Christians to stand up for the truth, contend for our faith, and offer to the world an alternative to God’s wrath. If we are ashamed of our faith, if we compromise our beliefs, and if we hide in our churches and ignore what is going on outside of them, we are aiding in our own destruction and countless souls will be lost because of our complacency, selfishness, and inaction.
“For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of god, which is in you through the laying on of my hands. For God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power, of love and of sound mind. So do not be ashamed to testify about our Lord, or ashamed of me his prisoner. But join with me in suffering for the gospel, but the power of God, who has saved us and called us to a holy life – not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace.” II Timothy 1:6-8
ALERT! Doctor warns on vaccine: “They want to kill off the world.”
IF you can ignore this, then you simply want to be deceived. I beseech you to pass this on to others whether you believe it or not. Give someone else a chance to know the truth, even if you refuse to look at it.
For unless GOD intervenes, we all have just a short time to get ready with God. Within a matter of weeks, people. Prepare your hearts, for the day will come when it will be so dark, you may not be able to find Him should your eyes be opened to the terror around you. Cry out to Him now! Today is the day of salvation!
“There are people out there who really believe in population control. They really want to kill off the majority of the people in the world. It was in June this year in New York city, that a group of billionaries met.”
Who was there? Mayor Michael Bloomberg, David Rockerfeller Jr., George Sorros, Ted Turner, Bill Gates.
On Warren Buffett>> “who has spent hundreds of millions of dollars for population control throughout the world. He’s alos financing programs of vaccinating little black children and brown children through out the world with mercury laden vaccines to destroy their virtility. They know exactly what they are doing. Warren Buffett was there, Oprah was there.”
“They’re going to target children and pregnant women. Why? This is where it will do the maximum amount of harm. It contains mercury…no safe dose of mercury.”
“You have to understand there are evil and wicked people out there. It is these people behind the occult that is going on all the things that are going on today…”
Russell Blaylock on Swine flu Vaccination
People, please watch and pay attention. It’s all a lie! It’s about money, fat cats in high places, pharmacuticals companies AND about controlling you and your family. It is about killing you.

Everybody is going to have to decide for themselves what they will or will not do. Some may be called to take the shot while looking the potential killers in the face and declaring, “I shall not die but live and declare the works of the Lord.”
Others may be called to be quarantined in their home. (We should be so blessed.)
Others may be called to leave family, home and friend for whatever reasons the Lord purposes.

The Following was composed by Dr. Russell Blaylock as a method to reduce autoimmune reactions to the flu vaccines only. Do not use this if you have the flu itself. These are just general observations and not medical advice. You should work with your doctor for a specific program.
Treatment for Toxic Vaccine Exposure
- All Children — 5000 IU a day for two weeks after vaccine then 2000 IU a day thereafter
- Adults — 20,000 IU a day after vaccine for two weeks then 10,000 IU a day thereafter
- Take 500 mg to 1000 mg of calcium citrate a day for adults and 250 mg a day for children under age 12 years.
ALERT! DON’T EXPECT HELP IF VACCINE DAMAGES YOU!
Please listen to this woman and share this message. This is Barbara Loe Fisher. She has been the most believable source I have seen. Parents you must at least listen to this for the sake of your child. We have only a little while to decide what we do if they force this upon us.
Written on the sidebar:
It is amazing how considerate and caring our governments are to the vaccine companies but NOT to the electorate that voted them in. No one is liable if the vaccine damages you, our governments have put those laws in place NOT to protect you but to protect the vaccine companies. NO COMPENSATION. Yet, our governments want everyone one vaccinated against a relatively mild flu, the one that is circulating at the moment that is, NOT the one they are ignorant of preparing to release through the vaccination program itself. Our governments do NOT know the evil people who have been placed into prominent positions of power.
RedeemedHippie:[I believe our government DOES know the evil people behind this because they are part of it!]
Who are these vaccine companies ?
What financial support have they given to political institutions ?
Why are they donating 100 million doses of vaccines to third world countries ?
RedeemedHippie:[To DEPOPULATE. EUGENICS, anyone? Hello?]
Why are they allowing such a mass vaccination program to go ahead ?
RedeemedHippie:[See above statement.]
Why have they put all the laws in place since 9/11 to prepare for our present so called pandemic ?
Why are they still in power ?
The whole political system has FAILED and our governments are being controlled by some pretty nasty people who couldn’t care less if you died.
If they want population reduction WHY do they want everyone vaccinated?
Please please do NOT rely on anyone filing charges because it will not happen and will NOT stop what is coming.
When is this s— going to STOP and people say enough is enough.
IT IS GOING TO GET A LOT WORSE THAN THIS.

“And by the way, we’re going to have to, if you’re very old, we’re not going to give you all that technology and all those drugs for the last couple years of your life to keep you maybe going for another couple of months. It’s too expensive. So we’re going to let you die.”

“…less new drugs on the market which means you will probably not going to live that much longer than your parents.”
Applause?! What is wrong with these people!?

I know a few months back, I said I was done with Tod Bentley. But in light of being around sick people once again the past week, I have noticed a few things that Tod Bentley and Obamacare have in common:
http://redeemedhippiesplace.wordpress.com/2009/10/10/robert-reich-were-gonna-let-you-die/
It is the same spirit at work when one does not regard the suffering and the elderly.
Being at the hospital the past week, I have had a few chances to pray with complete strangers for their loved ones. When ever I am in a hospital, it is not hard for me to look around and see the suffering and the worried looks on family and friends’ faces. I ask the Lord to direct my footsteps in showing me who is open for prayer. I have never been turned down. Never once has God told me to punch someone or kick someone. Never. Unlike Tod Bentley, — the deceiver and liar, the one who creates Jesus in his image.
He is a liar and a deceiver who creates God in his own image. He is a mocker that would say the Holy Spirit tells him to punch or kick someone. Not once is it mentioned in the Bible that Jesus EVER kicked or punched someone. NEVER!
Galatians 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.
Paul talks to the Corinthains about the stuff they were putting up with with false teachers:
2 Corinthians 11: 19-20 “For you put up with fools gladly, since you yourselves are wise! For you put up with it if one brings you into bondage, if one devours you, if one takes from you, if one exalts himself, if one strikes you on the face.”
There were false teachers even back then going around and bringing people into bondage to themselves, stealing from them, exalting themselves as someone great and even slapping them! And the christians put up with it! WHY? Because they did not test things. Much like today.
Some people told me last year in defense of TB, “But Smith Wigglesworth did it. He hit people.”
I do not give a royal rip what Smith Wigglesworth did. Go do a search and you can find he was false too. The main point is, JESUS DID NOT kick or punch people!
Partial transcript of video:
TB says, “God, why is the power of God not moving? He said, ‘Because you haven’t kicked that woman in the face.’ “
And the crowd smile as if they are senseless robots. This is the stupid spirit within the church!
“And there was this older lady worshipping right in front of the platform. and the holy spirit spoke to me, the gift of faith came on me, he said, ‘kick her in the face — with your biker boot.’ “
And the crowd stupidly laugh again with moronic faces! Note: the woman was worshipping! She was worshipping God and the devil said to kick the woman who was worshipping God!
“I inched closer and I went like this.” And he shows us how he kicks her. “Bam! And just as my boot made contact with her nose, she fell under the power of god.”
No, TB it was not the power of God, it was your biker boot and you are a devil to even suggest God would do such a thing.
I tell those of you now, if anyone went to my dear mother right now and said “God told me to kick her in the face” I would fight them with my bare hands and physically throw them out of the hospital with the strength of God on my side!
Oh, but you are touching God’s annointed, I can almost hear some of you say in shock. NO! You touch Gods’ annointed when you come against the Son of God who is gentle and lowly, who has told us, “All you who are weary come unto me and I will give you rest.” WHAT KIND OF GOD DO YOU FOLLOW if your god kicks you in the face when you come to him?! You follow a devil! A lying deceiving abomnible devil and you dare not question it!?
You follow mockery and blasphemy and you care not, because if you did you would be a Berean and search a matter out and repent for your vile beliefs and for creating a jesus in your image! It is HERESY to create a jesus that would kick the elderly or punch sick people!
So just as TB helped usher in an anti-christ: http://redeemedhippiesplace.wordpress.com/2009/10/10/todd-bentleys-fake-prophetic-eagles/
he also helped to usher in a spirit of the sort that has no regard for human suffering or the elderly with his revival.
Keep following his sort and when THE anti-christ comes, you will not even be able to seperate the holy from the profane!
It Will Cost You Everything
A few months ago, the Lord began giving me a revelation of what it meant to love Him above all on this earth. I thought I had “arrived” until recently I had been tested and realized if I can not forgive or/and love, then I am nothing. To put Jesus above all means even accepting His will in times of pain and tribulation. In short; the willing to suffer along with Him for His sake and for His Kingdom.
Oh Lord, where else can I go?! I believe Lord, help me with my unbelief!

Members of all branches of the United States Military will soon be facing a most critical decision. The European Union Times is reporting here that Obama is using the deployment of additional troops to Afghanistan to cover for the movement of some 200,000 troops, presently on duty in countries other than Iraq and Afghanistan, to USNORTHCOM to prepare for the “expected outbreak of Civil War within the United States before the end of winter.”
It would appear those who call themselves “public servants” believe the people they supposedly serve have become dissatisfied with their job performance and will resort to some form of civil disobedience, which will necessitate military intervention. According to the article, Obama believes the reason for this civil unrest to be an expected “implosion” of this country’s financial systems. Should these events occur, members of the military would be forced to decide whether they would support their government, which gave hundreds of billions to government cronies in the financial sector, or their country.
A prudent man would speculate if the government so fears coming civil unrest, will they move to seize firearms throughout the country and use these military forces along with law enforcement to do so? I believe the answer can be found in the events surrounding the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Government forces there not only seized firearms from private citizens but also relocated many citizens against their will.
Millions of Americans have prayed for the safety of the military as they fight the government’s wars all over the planet. Many believe the military to be defending the country from enemies that would take our weapons and our freedoms. What will their actions be when the US military becomes that enemy? Will the military willingly participate in such acts? Such are questions the future holds.
The government has spent decades defining those who oppose its unlawful exploits as enemies of the state. Those who can or will not differentiate between the government and the country have fallen hook, line and sinker for this demonization of those who demand the government operate within the constraints of the Constitution and moral law. Most of those who blindly support the illegal actions of the government have been bought and paid for with the taxes of those who actually produce something. Unfortunately, primary among those bought-and-paid-for entities are law enforcement and the military.
Both political parties have conducted this demonization of true Patriots. While the democrats have been traditionally anti-gun and liberty, the republicans bought into the program with the fascist Patriot Act and the illegal, unconstitutional War on Terror. The two dominant political parties in this country are two wings of the same vulture: blatant in-your-face socialism. There are no answers to our problems to be found in either political party.
Many on the right have bought into the ideas expressed by leaders of the military that all who oppose the state and its illegal agenda should be treated no differently than the “insurgents” the military has been facing in Iraq and Afghanistan. Nowhere is that better illustrated than here where a law enforcement publication is advocating military tactics promoted by General David Petraeus be used against those whom the state defines as its enemies. While the article in Guns and Weapons for Law Enforcement speaks specifically of gangs and drug activity, don’t forget the Department of Homeland Security has defined millions of patriotic Americans and veterans as possible domestic terrorists in its report sent to LE agencies on April 7th of 2009. If you wonder if you fit the definition of possible domestic terrorist, you should check here.
If the European Union Times report is correct and Obama is moving to strengthen USNORTHCOM with anywhere near the numbers mentioned, indicates the fedgov fears its own citizens much more than it fears al Qaeda. Either the government is anticipating a total financial breakdown, there are plans to confiscate firearms, a new false flag event is in the works, or any combination of the three. Either way, they plan on this event occurring before spring of 2010.
On the minds of many Americans and politicians is exactly how will the military and law enforcement react if told to confiscate firearms or move American citizens to FEMA camps.
Consideration must be given to the militarization of law enforcement entities in this country over the past few decades and our gradual decline into a police state, thanks to the bogus War on Terror. That being said, some police blogs such as this one indicate not all law enforcement personnel are on board with these illegal and corrupt practices. When considering possible actions of military personnel one must be aware of the felons and gang members who became part of the military when recruiters were falling short of their goals. Nothing could be better for a felon or a gang-banger than to actually be ordered to commit crimes with impunity. At some point in time, any true American serving in the military will be forced to ask themselves exactly what and whom they are defending and exactly what became of the “home of the free?”
What will be the reaction of the soldier from Colorado who is confiscating guns and placing so-called domestic terrorists in detention camps in Ohio when he gets word other soldiers are doing the same to his family and friends back home? Who will soldiers and law enforcement officers side with when push comes to shove: the government who has given over a trillion dollars to their cronies in the financial industry, failed to provide their brother/sister veterans competent medical care, denied disability benefits, denied compensation for treatment as prisoners of war, placed single parents in confinement and taken their children, or their family and friends who have lost their jobs and are seeing their homes and farms foreclosed by the same bankers who received huge bonuses from the bailout money? If military and law enforcement personnel begin to side with the citizens, will the fedgov call in United Nations forces to subdue those who cherish personal freedom and will fight to retain it?
Regardless of which series of events occur, Americans will be the losers. Brace yourselves and prepare, this is going to get real ugly.

ALERT – PLEASE WATCH! THE END OF AMERICA?!
People, whether you are Republican or Democrat, black or white — it really is not mattering much anymore — we ALL are Americans IF you value our freedom. It is time to wake up, stay alert and be vigilant. You must stop trusting this government. Why oh why do you continue to trust a government whose role models have been communists and desire for the destruction of life as we have known it? It is time to either get on one side or the other. The side of freedom or the side of oncoming tyranny. Some of us may die trying to defend our freedoms. But that has always been the price of freedom in this great land.
It is time to look around and see how you will survive should tyranny and lawlessness start to abound. What will you eat? What will you drink? Where will you stay? If you think I am just fear mongering, then so be it. I tell you these things because I believe something is coming. Please do your own homework. Get rid of any and all pre conceived notions of what you think about any political party. ALL of them have their turn coats to the American people. Truth of the matter is, not many, if any really give a darn about us.
I risk being a fool by continuing to tell you these things and turn out wrong. But I would rather be a fool in trying to warn you than staying silent and have something happen in the future. May God give us all HIS timing, wisdom, discernment and TRUTH.

How BIG Is God An Incredible Perspective!
When I was a little bitty thing, my earthly father taught me about a big God. Sitting in his lap in a lawnchair, he would point to the moon and stars and tell me, “God made the moon and the stars, baby?”
“How big is God, Daddy?”
“Big enough to make the moon and the stars.”
Daddy is gone now. He died December 16, 1997. But I want to share this video in memory of part of his legacy to me.

Where Is Satan’s Anointed?
Bride of Christ, we are told we will be hated for His Name sake. So in knowing that, why do so many still try to gain the world’s favor? Ought we not to plow on ahead in what we believe no matter the cost? They — those in the world and of the world — already hate us for the simple fact we serve the One True God (Jesus) so why try to get them to love us? It is either God’s favor resting upon us or the world’s. Which one are you going to choose?

SLAIN IN THE SPIRIT – The Absolute Biblical Truth
Much, if not all, that we have seen in the practice of being slain in the spirit is contrived through manipulation; which is a form of witchcraft. Some of it may even be occultic in nature. Other times it is a result of peer pressure in desiring to look spiritual.
If after watching this, you want to debate this, please do not bother. Unless you can come up with Biblical proof that this video has overlooked; which I doubt very much you do, please don’t just argue for the sake of arguing.
After seeing this and coming to the full truth, you still want to cling to this belief, please ask yourself why.

First off what is “it?” Second, just because something touches kids and old folks does not mean it is of God. WHERE in the Word are we taught this? We are not. Satan can “touch” us very well in all kind of ways. SHOW me IN THE WORD where this behavior is of God and acceptable and pleasing in His eyes.

When Britain woke up on the first day of the New Year it was met with freezing cold temperatures, feet of snow in places and the promise of travel chaos.
And now, three days into 2010, forecasters have warned to expect continued snowfall for the next 10 days – bringing with it added stress for commuters heading back to work after a festive break and children returning to school tomorrow.
Yet as Britain struggles to cope with the freezing weather conditions, other countries throughout the world are also finding themselves in the same predicament.
CHINA
Snow storms today have caused chaos in China’s capital of Beijing, grinding aeroplanes to a halt and causing severe traffic delays.
Around 90 per cent of all flights were either delayed or cancelled, leaving thousands of passengers stranded.
In addition, major roads in Beijing and Tianjin, as well as nearby provinces Hebei, Shanxi and Inner Mongolia, were forced to close due to the heavy snow.
The snow shows no sign of stopping, however, and temperatures are expected to drop to -16C in Beijing on Monday and Tuesday, causing more problems for those attempting to returning to work after a three-day New Year holiday
Authorities in Beijing and Tianjin announced today there will be no classes at primary and middle schools tomorrow as the snow had caused traffic chaos.
INDIA
Not a country usually associated with snow, India has experienced severe problems since Saturday when snowfall and a dense blanket of fog began to cause chaos.
More than 30 people died in cold-weather related incidents in Northern India over the past 24 hours, with 10 of those losing their lives in train accidents caused by the fog.
Meanwhile, 24 homeless people have also died in the Uttar Pradesh state since Saturday due to the severe drop in temperature.
Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir were all hit with heavy snow, while Gujarat, Rajasthan, Punjab, Haryana and Delhi also recorded snowfall over the past 24 hours.
Flights from New Delhi were grounded or delayed yesterday because of poor visibility, Shashanka Nanda, a spokesman for the Delhi International Airport Limited said, before adding that conditions had improved today.
RUSSIAA country much more used to dealing with high levels of snow, Russia saw temperature lows of a chilling -20C in Moscow today.
Those travelling on trains at stations near the Russian city of Vorkuta, attempted to continue their journeys despite the freezing conditions.
Workers also tried to sweep snow from the train tracks, but found it was falling too fast to clear.
However, two men making the most of the snow were Russian President Dmitry Medvedev and Prime Minister Vladimir Putin who decided to take to the slopes in Krasnaya Polyana near the Black Sea resort of Sochi in southern Russia.
The duo donned heavy jackets and goggles as they skiied together, with Putin looking serious as the pair indulged in some seemingly serious political conversations.
GERMANY
The snow caused more problems with flights in Germany, with one jet veering off the runway at Dortmund airport in western Germany.
The Air Berlin Boeing 737-800 broke to abort the take-off due to a ‘technical irregularity’, but none of the 165 passengers and six crew members were injured.
The plane was not damaged but flights from the airport were cancelled or diverted for a large part of the day.
Airline spokeswoman Diane Daedelow said: ‘A combination of the snowy weather and the speed the plane was travelling at forced the plane to skid off the runway.’
Over 30 flights from Frankfurt airport were also cancelled this morning.
AUSTRIA
While they are much more accustomed to dealing with snow, even native Austrians were struggling to cope with the freezing lows of -8C at night and -3C during the day.
But one creature happy to bound around in the fluffy snow was a mix breed dog called Lotta, who seemed entirely unconcerned as she became coated in snow during her run in Unken, in the Austrian province of Salzburg.
Meteorologists have predicted continued light snowfalls for the upcoming days in Austria.
False Foundation of the Five-Fold Ministry
Too many churches and Christians have a false notion that we must be submissive to anyone who calls themself an apostle, prophet, teacher, pastor or evangelist. This sets up little kingdoms of men with their little powers that be, that we must line up under them or else we are rebellious, etc.
Let’s say I have no pastor now (in which I don’t), do I go out and run myself crazy trying to find one? Knowing all along no doubt this pastor more or less will have been infected one way or another with the modern day gospel teachings of Rick Warren, Joel Osteen, Kenneth Copeland, Kenneth Hagin, etc?
And if I do decide to sit under his teachings, then am I to keep my mouth shut because well golly gee, he is just so important because the powers to be over him say so?
I recently was told I need a “shepherd.” Excuse me, but Jesus is my Shepherd. I also have a husband who loves me as Christ loves the church. I know my place. If and when my husband ever tells me I need a pastor, then I will take it a little more seriously. But until then, I will use my brain and continue to test all things that come my way.
It does not get any more simple than this; Hello! The church is in a state of apostacy. I will not line up under those who teach abomnible things and who want sheeple to help build their little kingdoms.
Following article makes sense to me.
http://www.discerningtheworld.com/2009/12/16/false-foundation-of-five-fold-ministry/#more-7193
by Robert M. Bowman, Jr.
It has recently become popular to speak of “the five-fold ministry,” a system of church government with apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers. The neo-Pentecostal “Restoration” movement and its offshoot, “kingdom now” teaching, claims that one of the things which God is “restoring” to the church is this five-fold ministry. The sole prooftext used to support this concept is Ephesians 4:11-13, which states that Christ gave “some as apostles, and some as prophets, and some as evangelists, and some as pastors and teachers,…until we all attain to the unity of the faith and the full knowledge of the Son of God.” The word “until,” it is argued, proves that the church today needs apostles and prophets as much as evangelists, pastors, and teachers. However, it is the “building up” of the church (v.12) which must continue until the church is mature, not all five of the offices listed in verse 11. This is clear when the whole text is read as follows: “And He gave some as apostles, and some as prophets, and some as evangelists, and some as pastors and teachers; [these offices were given] to equip the saints for the work of service, [which work has as its goal] to build up the body of Christ until we all attain to the unity of the faith…” The offices of apostle and prophet would naturally cease in the church once their role in “equipping the saints” was completed; that is, once the New Testament canon was completed.
Some have objected that there is no reason to bracket off the apostles and prophets from the other three offices listed in verse 11. However, in the very same epistle, Paul states that the church has “been built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets” (Eph. 2:20) and that Christ’s mystery concerning the church was “revealed to His holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit” (3:5). These statements indicate that the role of apostles and prophets was fulfilled in the first century.
The New Testament is particularly clear about the temporary role of the apostles, since they were chosen to give eyewitness testimony of the risen Christ (Acts 1:21-26; 5:32; Luke 1:1-4; 1 Cor. 9:1). Paul indicated that he was the last person to see the risen Christ and receive an apostolic commission (1 Cor. 15:8). The epistles of 2 Peter and Jude, among the very last New Testament writings to be penned, exhort the readers to avoid false doctrines by recalling the teachings of the apostles (2 Pet. 1:12-15; 2:1; 3:2, 14-16; Jude 3-4, 17). Peter and Jude did not say, “Listen to the apostles living today,” but instead urged believers to “remember what the apostles said.”
I am not arguing that only the Twelve and Paul were apostles. Barnabas (Acts 14:14), Silas (1 Thess. 2:6; cf. 1:1), and Andronicus and Junia (Rom. 16:7) all were apostles of Christ, and thus were no doubt among the more than 500 witnesses to the Resurrection (1 Cor. 15:6). However, none of these persons was chosen as a successor to an earlier apostle (Matthias was Judas’s replacement, not his successor, since Judas had forsaken his apostleship, Acts 1:21-26).
There are other senses in which the word “apostle” is used in the New Testament. Certain individuals, including Epaphroditus, were “apostles of the churches” (2 Cor. 8:23; Phil. 2:25). These “apostles” had no authority over the church; they were messengers sent by and subject to their churches. In this latter sense it would be perfectly legitimate to speak of church representatives as “apostles,” were it not for the confusion which might result from such usage.
Therefore, in the usual biblical sense of the term, there are no apostles today. Nor are there any prophets in the usual sense, as they were part of the “foundation” laid in the first-century church. This is not to deny the continuing validity of the gift of “prophecy,” since Paul does refer to prophesying as a basic activity in which all Christians are urged to participate to the extent God gifts them (Rom. 12:6; 1 Cor. 11:4-5; 12:10; 13:2, 8-9; 14:1-6, 20-33; 1 Thess. 5:20), and in a general functional sense persons exercising this gift are even called “prophets” (1 Cor. 14:32,37). Yet Paul also speaks of specific persons who occupied an office of “prophet” which was second in authority only to apostle (1 Cor. 12:28-29). It is this office of “prophet,” not all prophecy, which I am arguing passed away around the end of the first century.
Finally, some errors on this matter are worse than others. The loose use of the word “apostle” to refer to missionaries or church planters is not a serious error as long as this usage is sharply distinguished from the concept of an apostle who brings new doctrinal revelations and wields unquestionable authority. Nor is it a grievous error to interpret Ephesians 4:11 to refer to “apostles” in this sense of a church planter. The same would apply to those who hold that Ephesians 4:11 refers to the ongoing charismatic activity of prophesying. I do believe these interpretations are mistaken, but they are not in any way antagonistic to Christian faith.
On the other hand, to interpret Ephesians 4:11 as a call for a restoration of the office of apostle of Christ is not only a mistake in exegesis, it opens the door to heresy. To claim that the church today needs visions and revelations through modern apostles and prophets of Christ is to deny the sufficiency of the Bible (2 Tim. 3:16) and to place the church at the mercy of false apostles, the likes of whom the apostle Paul warned us about in no uncertain terms (2 Cor. 11:13-15).
The teachers of the “five-fold ministry,” in seeking to “restore” a foundation which has never been moved, are actually laying a false foundation which will not support the building up of the body of Christ.
Ineptness of man or the mercy of God?
Those acquainted with this blog know that a few months ago I spent a lot of time searching and exposing what I thought to be a fiendish plot; depopulation by vaccine or/and the H1N1 pandemic. Well, nothing has happened and for that I am so grateful. If my specualtion was well founded, was it man’s ineptness at not being able to pull it off just yet or did God intervene? I do not know the answer to that. Personally, I believe God had mercy and even now is making man look the fool; mocking him with all the cold weather across the world.
Even so, man’s intentions ARE to depopulate the world for their new religion; one of earth worship. When and how this will take place? Only God knows. Until then, I pray He continues to mock wicked men with evil intentions.

Truckloads Of Unused Swine Flu Vaccines
After months of fear, media coverage and government warnings there wasn’t as much demand for the swine flu vaccine in New York state as expected.
Truckloads of swine flu vaccines are being returned by counties that say the expected demand for the shots never happened.
When the state’s H1N1 vaccination program kicked off in the fall there were fears that there wouldn’t be enough of the new vaccine to go around.
The flu strain has not spread as wide as feared and some people were also unsure of pumping a quickly developed vaccine into their bodies.
On January 1, state health officials urged people who haven’t been vaccinated to get a shot.
“When it’s in a shortage, everyone clamors for it,” said Dr. Richard Daines, commissioner of the state Department of Health. “Now that it’s abundant, people don’t think they need to fight for it.”
RedeemedHippie:[Awww, so the people are not fighting for it. This is what they wanted all along, people. They wanted us like sheeple fighting for it but they were not able to pull it off. What will they do the next time to make us feel like we have to fight for it?]
New York is among 11 states that has widespread flu outbreaks. Daines says another wave of flu could hit the state.
The swine flu first turned up in New York last April at St. Francis Preparatory School in Queens.

Sheep Gives Birth to Human-Faced Lamb in Turkey
Is this for real????? If so, then the world is in for some STRANGE signs and wonders. Watch out Church.
Following article gotten here:
http://english.pravda.ru/science/mysteries/12-01-2010/111621-sheep_human_face-0
A sheep gave birth to a dead lamb with a human-like face. The calf was born in a village not far from the city of Izmir, Turkey.
Erhan Elibol, a vet, performed Cesarean section on the animal to take the calf out, but was horrified to see that the features of the calf’s snout bore a striking resemblance to a human face.

“I’ve seen mutations with cows and sheep before. I’ve seen a one-eyed calf, a two-headed calf, a five-legged calf. But when I saw this youngster I could not believe my eyes. His mother could not deliver him so I had to help the animal,” the 29-year-old veterinary said.
The lamb’s head had human features on – the eyes, the nose and the mouth – only the ears were those of a sheep.
Veterinaries said that the rare mutation most likely occurred as a result of improper mutation since the fodder for the lamb’s mother was abundant with vitamin A, CNNTurk.com reports.
RedeemedHippie:[Is it safe to assume that the mutation may have occured because someone had some perverse act with the lamb's mother? Is it even possible?]
A goat from Zimbabwe gave birth to a similar youngster in September 2009. The mutant baby born with a human-like head stayed alive for several hours until the frightened village residents killed him.
The governor of the province where the ugly goat was born said that the little goat was the fruit of unnatural relationship between the female goat and a man.
RedeemedHippie:[Well, that answers my question!]
“This incident is very shocking. It is my first time to see such an evil thing. It is really embarrassing,” he reportedly said. “The head belongs to a man while the body is that of a goat. This is evident that an adult human being was responsible. Evil powers caused this person to lose self control. We often hear cases of human beings who commit bestiality but this is the first time for such an act to produce a product with human features,” he added.
The mutant creature was hairless. Local residents said that even dogs were afraid to approach the bizarre animal.
The locals burnt the body of the little goat, and biologists had no chance to study the rare mutation.
RedeemedHippie:[Wickedness is growing and evil surely abounding.]
Pat Robertson stupid comment on HAITI EARTHQUAKE
Video below:
Is Pat Robertson correct with his judgments? IS God judging Haiti for any pact they may have made with the devil? I don’t know the answer to that and neither does PR. If God is judging Haiti, what makes America or any other nation better? NOTHING.
I’m only reminded of what Jesus told those who thought the tower that fell on some people were worst people or something. What did he tell them? He told them no, but unless they repent, something worse would happen to them.
Pat Robertson is “optimistic that something good” will come from this event. I’m sorry, I can not be that optimistic. I think it is easy for anyone who is not having to survive under such conditions to say, “something good will come.” I believe it is the beginning of great sorrows. It’s ok if you want to disagree. But go ask the inhabitants of Haiti what they believe right now.
PR’s STUPID comment about all the buildings been down so therefore it must be a good thing because they can start to rebuild. Just who does he believe will do the rebuilding? The United Nations? What a joke! Any man who appears on the scene will more than likely be an anti-christ!
Pat Robertson, do not take it on yourself to think you speak for the majority of Christians just because you re a high profile figure. Your ignornace brings reproach to the Church.
So Pat Robertson, you had better be careful, be very careful if you believe this nation somehow deserved this horrible catastrophe. Do you dare believe you are somehow exempt from such tragedy in your own life because you live in the United States? America — home of MANY idols and gods. Home of the godless and profane. Home and breeding ground of the harlot and the apostates! But no, you better be careful… we ALL better take heed! The judgements of God do come but there is NONE righteous, no, not one!
God in heaven, have mercy and help the people of Haiti!
DESTRUCTION is coming to the USA – What are you doing about it?
God is telling his precious Bride to, “Awake! Awake! Prepare your hearts. Get oil in your lamps! I come quickly.”
If you love Jesus, won’t you please watch and ask the Lord to begin changing everything in us that is not pleasing to Him? That we would learn to lay down and die so that He may live! Live in us and arise in us, Almighty God.

Joyce Green: The Wedding Supper
Joyce Green was a remarkable Godly woman. No thrills with her. Just simple Godly truth delievered with grace and mercy. I never got to meet Joyce personally. But I did get to talk to her a few times over the phone. When the church was teaching me to rebuke everything that was coming between me and my dream of being a mother, Joyce made it clear that God was trying to get at something in me. She told me, “You have created an image of yourself as a mother and God may never have meant for you to be a mother. It is possible that God is trying to get at something in you that you can’t take to heaven.” Her words delieverd so mercifully, rung like bells of truth. I began to weep and weep and told her, “Yes, yes, I have created an image. And the image is not true. Whatever Your will is, Lord, let me cling to that.” See, I had to die at what I thought was God’s will for me. When I did, THEN only was I able to move on and live in the present.
Since that time many years ago, Joyce has gone to be with the Lord.
Her teachings still remain with me. She was the first woman I could receive anything from after trying to receive from the many on TBN and other “teachers.” I hope she will be a breath of fresh air to you and may her words ring as truth and set you free!
“Some of you are trying to confess yourself out of your crucifiction. You’re trying to make positive confessions, financally you’re in a mess and you’re trying to make positive confessions to get yourself out the crucification God has ordained for you. In case you haven’t noticed it, it’s not working…the positive confession He wants you to make is, ‘Oh Lord, I’m in a mess. I’m not even sure how I got here. But Lord, the only way out of this mess is for You to deliever me after You have taught me what You want me to learn from this experience.”

“His invitaiton for you and me, is ‘Come and die. Come and give up all your dreams and aspirations. Give up all of your idols. give up all the addictions. Come and give up all of the things that have bound you.’… You know what an idol is? An idol is anything or any person that you love more than you love Jesus.”
Part 2:
“One of the things we forsake is fear. Isn’t that good? When you come to Jesus, then He becomes your fear. He becomes your dread, then He becomes your sanctuary…We give up the things that are killing us so we can recieve and partake of His life. which flows through us.”

John Murtha — DEAD and JUDGED by the Almighty
PSALM 147:5-6 Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; His understanding is infinite. The LORD lifts up the humble; He casts the wicked down to the ground.
Another ungodly politician has died. I will not be shedding any tears. Just like Ted Kennedy before him, John Murtha has now met his Maker. Unable to lie, bribe and buy his way to high places in this world, he now has died and he has trembled before almighty God until God cast him in hell. That is unless he repented before he died for his wicked ways.
Fear the Lord, you wicked politicians. Your days are numbered. Like those before you, you WILL stand before God and answer for the evil you have done with the roles entrusted to you.
PSALM 37:9-13 For evildoers shall be cut off; But those who wait on the LORD, They shall inherit the earth. For yet a little while and the wicked shall be no more; Indeed, you will look carefully for his place, But it shall be no more. But the meek shall inherit the earth, And shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
The wicked plots against the just, And gnashes at him with his teeth.
The Lord laughs at him, For He sees that his day is coming.

Part 2: What Tod Bentley has in common with Jim Jones
Following article gotten here:
http://toddbentleyjimjones.blogspot.com/2008_07_23_archive.html
In addition to the fact that the Voice of Healing Revival provided a theatrical means for Jim Jones to build his following in the People’s Temple, it also produced two very dangerous heretical movements which are infiltrating Christianity to this day. These two movements are the Latter Rain Movement and the Word of Faith Movement. Bentley, like Jim Jones has quite obviously been influenced by the theatrical show of the movement- thus taking it to an entirely new level. He has also been influenced by both movements as clearly seen when looking into his preaching!
The Word of Faith Movement gained its popularity through the ministry of Oral Roberts- who had his ministry launched to success through the Voice of Healing Movement in the 1940’s. The basic heretical teaching of the movement is that faith is a force which is put into motion by our words. God himself is bound by the force of our words. For example, if I were to say I am a millionaire- God would be bound by the my words to make me a millionaire.
While most churches that would have to be termed Word of Faith do not claim such, their teachings reflect it. One thing the Word of Faith Movement has done effectively is have a statement of faith consistent with church history on the essentials so that they can make it look like they are within the realm of Orthodox Christianity. From an examination of the teachings taught from the actual pulpit- it is apparent that such a statement of faith is nothing more than a means of window-dressing. 2 Peter 2:1 we are warned that there will be false prophets among us that will secretly introduce destructive heresies. Whereas most cults will tell you straight up what they believe in a statement of faith, the Word of Faith Movement sugarcoats it by giving it to you in bits and pieces. Most of the controversial and heretical statements are spoken from the pulpit. Statements like the following: “Satan conquered Jesus on the cross.” “Jesus had to pay a ransom to Satan in order to purchase our atonement.” “We are little gods.” “The Trinity is composed of nine persons.” Word of Faith teachers include teleevangelists like Benny Hinn, Kenneth Copeland, Kenneth Hagin (whose movement Bentley is a part of), Robert Tilton, TD Jakes, Joel Osteen, Morrus Cerillo, Creflo Dollar, Paul and Jan Crouch, Jesse Duplantis, Eddie Long, Richard and Oral Roberts, Marilyn Hickey, and David Yonggi Cho among many others too numerous to name. Most of them can be seen on TBN or the Inspiration Network.
While TBN and INSP showcase many Word of Faith teachers, GodTV highlights teachers of the Latter Rain Movement like Rodney Howard-Browne, Patricia King, Rick Joyner, Mike Bickle, Bob Jones etc. Much like the Word of Faith Movement, you will very rarely find a church that actually claims to be Latter Rain. Most churches like Morningstar Ministries in Rock Hill, S.C. have a statement of faith as a means of window-dressing but is contradicted or expanded upon if you take the time to listen to the actual preaching and teaching.
The Latter Rain Movement is not much different than other cult that has existed throughout history. Its teachers claim that the church has been in an apostate state for years and that they are called to restore the church to perfect truth by means of their prophecies and revelations in order to pave the way for the return of Christ who will come once the church is perfected. Though the teaching appears new, like most heresies it actually has its origins in the first few centuries of the church when a heretical teacher named Montanus proclaimed himself as the prophet sent for the End to restore the church to all truth.
The primary heretical teachings of the Latter Rain Movement are the tangible anointing, the Restoration of the Tabernacle of David, and the Manifest Sons of God doctrine. The idea that the anointing is tangible is the driving force behind the success of revivals like the Pensacola Outpouring, the Toronto Blessing, and currently the Florida Healing Outpouring. That is why people feel that they have to go to these places in order to receive a special touch from God. In truth I John 2:20 tells us that the anointing of the Holy Spirit abides withus from the beginning of our salvation and therefore is not something that can be touched or transferred.
The Restoration of the Tabernacle of David teaches that there is a perfect form of worship which will lead us into perfection. In places like Morningstar, Mike Bickle’s International House of Prayer, and the Florida Healing revival- this form of worship is used with much repetition of the choruses. In actuality, it is more like a chant than anything else- thus imitating the worship of Eastern/New Age Religions. That is not such a surprise these days since we see someone like Bentley claiming New Age practices under the banner of the Christian faith. The New Age invasion of Christianity has long been attempted but never has it been so successful as with Bentley. In the same way that the Socialist message in America was attempted long before Jim Jones, but was never used to gain such a huge following in the way that he did before he led 918 people to drink koolaid laced with cyanide in the greatest mass cult suicide in history.
Finally, the Latter Rain Movement teaches that instead of Christ returning in glory- he is actually waiting for the church to become perfect so that he can literally incarnate his body in the form of the corporate church. This is the manifest Sons of God doctrine. None of these teachings come out directly in a statement of faith but there is clear evidence of them in the reading of the leaders’ books and bulletins. In The Final Quest, Rick Joyner for instance states that the whole Christian community is about to be consumed by a bloody Civil War. He uses such a statement to validate that there will be a new way of worship and ministry to replace the old. While methods change throughout history, God’s word must remain as supreme authority. In the teachings and practices of the Latter Rain Movement- it clearly has not. As an example to show how Joyner often departs from his window-dressed statement of faith there are a couple of quotes he has made in which he says that Jesus was not a man, but rather a spirit. Such a teaching was the basis of the cult of Gnosticism from which the writings of Nag Hammadi (including the Gospel of Thomas emerged).
Recently in defense of Bentley’s frequent experiences with angels, Rick Joyner posted a Q & A bulletin in which he stated “The Bible talks about angels far more than anyone. Having encounters with angels is more normal than not having them. Some people I think are concerned because they are not having encounters themselves. Biblically the lack of encounters with angels should be more of a concern than having encounters with them.” In other words according to Joyner, if you are not having encounters with angels- there must be something spiritually wrong with you. I am currently looking into the teachings of Gnosticism as I think that idea is consistent with the teachings of Gnosticism. I will verify as soon as I have more information.
Both of the above movements are a very dangerous shift away from historical Christianity. Looking at them now, I get a good chuckle. I am reminded of a time when I myself had to come out of some of the darkness I have written about here. It is very dangerous. This ideology threatens Christianity’s foundation in the same way that Communism/Socialism did 50 years ago. Now a leader like Todd Bentley who holds to the beliefs of these two movements has gained popularity and notoriety with many followers who would die for his cause. In much the same way that many followers were willing to die for the cause of Jim Jones. That is why we must beware and we must warn everyone about this dark and deadly deception.
Part 1: What Tod Bentley has in common with Jim Jones
Following article gotten here:
http://toddbentleyjimjones.blogspot.com/2008/07/voice-of-healing-movement.html
Both Jim Jones and Todd Bentley were influenced by the Latter Rain Movement which sprung forth from the Voice of Healing revival that took place in the 1940’s. The leaders of this Voice of Healing revival were William Branham A.A. Allen, Jack Coe, Oral Roberts. There were other leaders like O.L. Jaggers who as mentioned before laid hands upon and pronounced over Jim Jones a very special prophetic ministry. However, the four listed above are the most prominent of the movement.
In Branham (whose mantle and angel Bentley claims), we find very dangerous doctrines like a denial of the Trinity, the teaching that Eve had sex with the serpent and from that union Cain was conceived, further taught that God gave man 3 books (Zodiac, pyramid, and Bible), believed that he was Elijah returned, also the latter day angel to the church of Laoidecea, and prophesied that by 1977 the rapture would take place. Branham was notorious for his ability to discern the details of people’s lives. He would call out these details as they came up on stage and he prayed for them. We know that years later Jim Jones had creative ways of learning info about people before services so that he could use the same tactics. I’m not sure if the same was true of Branham. We have seen in recent history in teleevangelist Peter Popoff exposed for having a mic in his ear to assist with his “words of knowledge.” After Branham’s death in a car accident in 1965, his followers waited by his gravesite for one week convinced that he would rise from the dead. However, it never happened. Yet, today there is a cult built around William Branham called the Branhamites who believe that “He was the greatest prophet that ever lived.”
While Branham was known for words of knowledge, Jack Coe was known for picking people up out of wheelchairs to try to convince them they were healed. If they fell, he would say that it was because they did not have enough faith. Coe warned there was a coming a day that anyone who went to see a physician would have to take the mark of the beast. However, when he himself came down deathly sick- he would take the mark of the beast and consult a doctor. He died of bolbar polio at 38 years old. When he died, O.L. Jaggers (who would later lay hands on Jim Jones) tried to convince his wife Juanita that he could raise Jack from the dead. Juanita declined to accept Jaggers’ offer. Jaggers offered this because he claimed that God had revealed to him the formula for how to attain physical immortality in this world.
A.A. Allen was known as “God’s man of faith and healing power.” Allen’s healing services looked more like a sideshow. He was most known for his “ability” to build the faith of the crowd in order to see someone healed. I watched this personally on the God’s Generals video series compiled by Roberts Liardon. Allen taught that God had given him the ability to turn $1 bills into $20 bills. He was of one the first ministers to promise financial blessing to those who gave to his ministry. In 1955, Allen was arrested for drunk driving in Tennessee. After the arrest, he was stripped of his credentials with the Assemblies of God (AoG). After being stripped of his credentials, Allen would play the role of martyr claiming that he was knocked unconscious and framed by men who poured alcohol down his throat. Many followers bought Allen’s alibi, and his ministry continued. However he died in 1969 with cirrhosis of the liver, and was found to be drinking yet again on the night that he died as he had a high level of blood alcohol content.
I have yet to watch a video on Jaco Coe. However, I have seen the videos on William Branham and A.A. Allen. Allen’s video especially appears to be more of a theatrical sideshow than anything else. I am convinced that that is what he was was nothing than a theatrical sideshow. The video I watched looked too staged for me to believe that it was real. Branham on video appeared humble, but he himself claimed some outrageous stories like a tree talking to him to confirm his calling. I’m not saying that that is impossible, but we must test things in light of scripture. We know that Branham taught dangerous doctrines and therefore we must call into question the claims of his supernatural enccounters. If he did indeed have supernatural encounters, the bad fruit of false doctrine which spread from his ministry must make us question the source of those encounters.
I’m not disputing that some people did get healed in the meetings of the above men. However, healing does not validate a ministry as being from God. Jesus verifies that in Matthew 7:22-23 when he says “There are many who will say to me on that day ‘Lord, Lord did we not drive out demons in your name and in your name perform many miracles’ and I will say to them ‘Away from me, you evildoers, I never knew you.’
The theatrics seen in the Voice of Healing Revival Movement impressed a young 24 year old pastor, Jim Jones, who later used the same theatrics in order to build his following at the People’s Temple which as I have mentioned eventually led to the death of 918 people in the greatest mass cult suicide in history. Years later, we see Todd Bentley using the same theatrics and taking them even further than we could have ever imagined. I am hoping the day never comes that he says, “God told me we must all drink koolaid laced with cyanide if we want revival to break out.” But given the extent to which he has already gone with his violent ministry claims, it is sadly not that unlikely that he would indeed go that far- and people would still believe him.
The Voice of Healing Movement is also where Oral Roberts got his start in ministry in the 1940’s. I do not have much information on his involvement other than the fact that it did launch him to success in ministry. Oral Roberts is a prosperity preacher and one of the main figures in the Word of Faith Movement which sprung forth out of the Voice of Healing Movement. Roberts is notorious for his claim in 1987 that he needed to raise $8 million in three months are God was going to bring an end to his life. I remember watching that as an 8 year old little boy.
As noted, the Word of Faith Movement sprung forth from the Voice of Healing Movement. Most of the preachers on TBN are a part of that movement. The Word of Faith Movement did not seem to miss a beat even in the midst of the controversy of the Voice of Healing leaders. It has dominated our television screens for years. On the other hand, the Latter Rain Movement which also was a product of the Voice of Healing Movement all but vanished for a couple of decades before being revived in the 1980’s.
In my next post, I will detail in specific the dangerous doctrines of both the Latter Rain Movement and the Word of Faith Movement as I trace their history from the 1940’s to the present. I will also provide a list of ministers currently on your tv screen that hold to the teachings of these movements.

Tod Bentley = Anton Lavey Look-a-like
Thank you to the person that let me know I had posted the wrong video earlier. Please accept my sincere apologies. This here is the correct video of Tod Bentley looking like a modern day Anton Lavey or Uncle Fester from the Adams family:
In a video that can be seen here for the moment:
we can see Tod Bently once again with two flames behind his bald head, dressed up in black looking like an Anton LaVey Wannabee.
Notice his eyes and then tell me what you see. Listen to him talk and tell me what you hear with his fake preacher accent. Watch for the micro-second smiles that shout, “I’m a fake and you people don’t have a clue.”
Bride of Christ, this is what will help bring in the anti-christ. This apostate, fake, phoney compromising, rebellious, ungodly, fornicating, adultress, tatooed-let’s-look-like-the-world-so-we-can-save-them bunch who believe themselves to be the eletists in the Church.
Playtime for Kids and It’s Called Divination
Thank you to the person taht sent me the following.
By: Jan Markwell of OliveTree ministries
I was planning to write about a current event issue when this story hit my in-box. I am no longer shocked by issues like what I am about to report. Our kids and teens have been seduced for decades. Harry Potter hasn’t helped nor has Twilight. Both kids and adults have been introduced to the paranormal in dozens of TV programs and movies. So much so, in fact, that the paranormal is the new normal.
So now ToysRus has a cute little pink Ouija board and one that glows in the dark, both marketed for children. They advertise that kids as young as 8 need to have these new sorcery objects! (Well, they don’t call them “sorcery objects” but the Bible does.) I know it is billed as a “toy” but I have enough personal experience that I can tell you it is blatant divination.
The Bible speaks extensively about “divination” and “sorcery.” Entire civilizations have been wiped out because of sorcery. Those perpetrating this are aiming at younger kids every day. Serious reproach against witchcraft and divination is given in Deuteronomy 18:9-15.
Are Christian parents going to say that this new kids’ Ouija board is “just a game,” just like they say Harry Potter and Twilight are “just fiction” and can’t hurt anyone? You can bet some will!
Let me tell you my personal ordeal with a Ouija board.
I was 23 years old. (I know that was back in the Bronze Age, but divination hasn’t changed.) I was addicted to a Ouija board. I had people driving 100 miles to put their hands on the glass object, ask the board questions, and have it spell out answers. I was so good at it that the glass object could move with no hands on it.
It made predictions and many of them came true. It instilled power in me that was stunning. The glass object that spelled out words would often spin around the board in a frenzy, and it was always talking about dark, evil things. All predictions were negative. It scared many participants. It has supernatural power, but since it is of the devil, not all predictions came true because the devil does not know the future.
When I asked the board where it got its power, it spelled S-A-T-A-N.
One evening I put the board away and felt a presence in my apartment. I did not want to open my eyes because I knew I would see a demon.
If you think I am doing this for sensationalism, I can tell you that it has not been easy reliving my experience. I do it only to spare some of you from my mistakes.
I had roots in a solid church in my teenage years and I sensed I had crossed a line. I seriously repented, took the board and glass object out to a bonfire and forever said good-bye to its evil. That was in accordance with Acts 19 which says that those who practiced magic gathered up their instruments and burned them.
Sadly, I had obtained almost a lust for the paranormal from the Ouija board and that is why most participants then move to deeper and darker occultic practices. The Ouija board is stepping stone number one.
But isn’t this just a game like Monopoly? you ask. Going back to my personal experience — the glass object was profane, cursed God, and sometimes flew off the board in a rage. Evil spirits were present to be sure. So no, it’s not just like Monopoly. This is playing with FIRE.
If anyone you know, child or adult, is playing with this force of evil, warn them. March on over to ToysRus and register a complaint.
There are many Web sites that speak of people getting obsessed/addicted to this so-called game. Others say this was the start of their paranormal journey. Sadly, most toy stores will put profits before protecting children, but speak up nonetheless.
This is just another sign of the times and of the lateness of the hour. In these last days, evil will wax worse and worse. That is why we as believers are called to be salt and light in a dark world. If a Christian feels they can dabble in darkness and still be “light,” they are seriously deceived.
Sold his soul: Bob Dylan
I find Bob Dylan’s behavior troublesome. He almost appears afraid.
When asked who he made the bargain with to get where he is, he answered, “With the chief commander…”
The interviewer asks with a smile, “On this earth?” Pause the video at 2:40. Does the interviewer have a tooth missing??? What the heck??? How does a big shot interviewer get by with that???
Dylan goes on, “…in this world and in the world we can’t see.”
Mocking song from Lucifer to your daughter
The video with all it’s fluffy clouds and Barbie dolls is marketed for your little girls! It is mocking what could be a child’s confusion, yet at the same time pushing them into homosexuality! Warning: it gets graphic at the end. They pervert Barbie and Ken. And to think chances are your child may have already seen this video while you were about your everyday buisness of cooking, cleaning and making a home. Parents, do not trust Katy Perry or anyone else in the music industry with your child. No one will ever love your children the way you do.
Video seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tWbLkXhGEmo
Putrid words and music here:
Lucifer’s song to your daughters: Kiss a Girl
Parents, do you know what your children are listening to? Do you care enough to listen to the words? There is an agenda for your children. It is one of blatant wickedness and evil. If you do not teach your child in the way they should go, then you have opened up the door to let the music industry do it for you.
Katy Perry has even admitted to selling her soul to Satan:
http://redeemedhippiesplace.wordpress.com/2010/02/05/sold-her-soul-katy-perry/
Do you want this influence in your child’s life? It is not enough to just say, “No!” You must teach them the truth. If not, they will fall for all kinds of lies.
If for some reason the video did not convince you of the wickedness behind this song, then perhaps this will convince you:
Sold her soul: Katy Perry
Katy Perry grew up in a Christian home. Yet, she admits she sold her soul to Satan. The music industry is evil. Who else but Lucifer can be behind it?
Child Indoctrination of the Homosexual Agenda

Leonard Ravenhill: The Annointing
How many of us at one time or another, knew that God had put something so deep, so rich in us, that we wanted to be able to shout it from the rooftops? Only to begin having it squelched by man. When this happens, it is man setting up THEIR image of what we are to look like. Never let man put their yoke on you! Never! Whatever God has called you to do, do it with all your heart. If He has called you to sit with the sick, do it. If He has called you to take a meal to someone, do it. Whatever it is. There is none great or small. The only One great is Jesus.

The Truth of Tod Bentley’s Roots
http://www.eternalpath.com/lakeland.html
Compiled By S. E. Ray
Canadian Todd Bentley doesn’t look like a minister as some would expect. The 32-year-old openly sports body piercings and tattoos on his arms and neck, which has caused many to question his purpose and motivations.
On April 2, 2008, Bentley was invited by Stephen Strader, pastor of Ignited Church, Lakeland, Florida, to lead a one-week revival. The revival quickly became a religious and media phenomenon, attracting up to 10,000 attendees nightly. It continued after the first week. In addition to showcasing Bentley’s evangelism, the revival features colorful light shows and power-chord Christian rock music.
The Ignited Church quickly hired A New York public relations firm to send out press releases claiming “documented healings.” Information and webcasts were made available via their website and the revival is streamed live via stream – which received over 1 million hits in the first five weeks of transmissions. After the initial weeks, GOD TV, a religious satellite channel, decided to pre-empt its primetime programming and broadcast the Lakeland meetings nightly.
Stepping back to 1998, the FreshFire Ministry Group asked Bentley to give his testimony at one of their weekly meetings. Soon after, Bentley took over the leadership of the group, which became more of a revival movement. He works with and/or otherwise promotes Patricia King of Extreme Prophetic, and he is also very close to aberrant Kansas City prophet Bob Jones, supports Rick Joyner, as well as such churches as the Toronto Airport Christian Fellowship. Todd Bentley’s neo-Pentecostalism is Latter Rain influenced and Bentley now claims to have William Branham’s ministry angels helping him.
To understanding Todd Bentley’s origin of power, one must understand the genealogy from which it sprang. William Branham was born in Berksville, Kentucky, in dire poverty. At the age of 5, he heard “A Voice” who directed him to abstain from coffee, smoking and alcohol. This disembodied Voice was later given credit for his unusual healing powers by William himself. William Branham was fascinated with the Zodiac and Egyptian occultism as his mentor was occultist Franklin Hall. Branham’s obsession with the occult is evident even in his death: his grave is marked by a Masonic occult pyramid atop his grave.
He taught his “Serpent Seed” doctrines in the 1950’s, of how Eve had intercourse with the Serpent, and all the seed from Cain are predestined for hell. He even called the handsome serpent the missing link between man and monkey. Branham later declared himself the angel of Rev. 3:13 and 10:7 and prophesied that in 1977, all denominations would be consumed by the Roman Catholics, the rapture would take place and the world would end. Before his death in 1965, his occult healing spirit was transferred to hundreds by the laying on of hands. These people include almost all the major names who operated as “healing” evangelists during that time, and who are still at work today. They took Branham’s mantle through the period known as the Latter Rain, endued by the power of his demonic occult entity. William lived his life in fear and acted under a compulsive-type behavior associated with his life-long demonic oppression.
William Branham is an important figure in modern day charismatic, Pentecostal, and emerging church circles. The reason is that not just his latter rain theology, but also his “spirit”, and (allegedly) his ministering “angels” have been passed onto a new generation of prophets. A “badge” of elitism and favor in the new prophetic movement are those who can boast of having met or seen Branham’s angel. Testimonies to these angelic encounters are included on Todd Bentley’s website. Paul Cain, closely linked with William Branham, as well as claiming he works directly with Branham’s angels in a similar manner to Branham. It is he who passed the power onto John Wimber and his Vineyard with the prophetic spirit which in turn infected the multi denominational wider church through the Toronto Blessing.
The beginnings of the prophetic movement goes back many decades. In the 40’s there was a flurry of activity. Between 1947 and 1957, the so-called “Healing Revival” led by Oral Roberts, T.L. Osborn, A.A. Allen, Jack Coe, and Orval Jaggers enveloped America often with large tent campaigns. William Branham was the central figure in this era. But he also became a catalyst for the contemporary Pentecostal Movement we call the Latter-Rain. It appeared in Canada and was given the blessing of Branham who actually laid hands on the Canadian leaders of the Latter-Rain. The Latter-Rain had developed an entirely new end-time teaching of “salvation history.” The Latter Rain is where the so-called ‘Toronto Blessing’ began. The movement is characterized by a plethora of unorthodox teachings and questionable practices — encouraged and promoted by alleged ‘words,’ ‘prophecies’ and ‘visions’ from God, and accompanied by anything from outbreaks of uncontrollable laughter, people acting as if they were drunk, and claims of having received gold dust or other ’supernatural signs’ from God. Bentley’s teachings and practices place his ministry squarely among the controversial renewal and revival movements.
Another figure in the healing movement who was to have a profound impact on the development of the “healing tradition” or movement within Pentecostalism and, by implication, the Charismatic movement, was Mariah Woodworth-Etter. She was a forerunner of people like Aimee Semple Macpherson, Kathryn Kuhlmann, Oral Roberts, Paul Cain, and scores of other Pentecostals and Charismatic’s who have the so called “anointing”. Woodworth-Etter was no ordinary “woman preacher.” Indeed, the argument can be made that her powers, which were potent and real, bore more resemblance to those acquired by the Shamans and Magicians of primitive cultures, who are able, on occasion, to wield tremendous preternatural powers; such powers can be executed even over certain geographical regions. People being “struck down along the highways,” who happened to be in the vicinity of this woman does not testify to her being anointed by the power of the Holy Spirit, but more likely to the fact that she was able, through the power of suggestion, manipulation, or diabolical intervention to project power. Woodworth-Etter, as is well documented, would preach to Quakers, Mormons, and Universalists. She primarly considered scripture secondary to her gifts, which is the primary marker of a cult mentality. “Trance Evangelist” like Woodworth-Etter, as well meaning as they may have been, precipitated a different gospel by confusing the seeking after “power” with the following of Jesus.
Paul Cain met the leadership of the Kansas City prophets in 1990 led by Mike Bickle. Bickle, Jones and others in Kansas City, received him as their “spiritual father” and he was recognized as the chief among all the prophets. At this point the Vineyard movement, led by the late John Wimber, stepped in and took Bickle’s church and the prophets into the Vineyard movement. Not long after this the Toronto Vineyard church introduced the world to the “Toronto Blessing” with all it’s strange phenomena. Bob Jones, a controversial Kansas City prophet, Jim Goll, Rick Joyner, and John Paul Jackson, now Vineyard prophets, endorsed the Toronto phenomenon. Later there was a cross-fertilization (their term) with similar movements linking others with this orbit, including C. Peter Wagner and his apostles and prophets of the New Apostolic Reformation, who include Cindy Jacobs, Dutch Sheets, Chuck Pierce, Ted Haggard, and others.
Michael Horton, who wrote “The Agony of Deceit,” which documents fraud among televangelists, said at an interview, “I have not yet encountered a ‘faith healer’ who failed to preach a different gospel than the one that we find clearly presented in the New Testament.” Many of the faithful are understandably grieved by this bold resurfacing of Apostolic/Third Wave/Latter Rain teaching, which is a mix of New Age teachings and altered Pentecostal methodologies.
Even those sympathetic to Pentecostal theology are apprehensive. Mark Balmer, pastor of the 8,000-person Calvary Church in nearby Melbourne, FL, received so many questions about Bentley that he finally spoke up. He said he believes “in all the gifts for today, including healing.” He also asserted: “We are not heresy hunters.” He nonetheless told his congregation “not to attend this counterfeit revival.” Lee Grady of Charisma magazine said “Charismatic and Pentecostal leaders are divided over its legitimacy.”
As background information, Todd Bentley is relatively a new Christian with no formal training or experience in the exposition of scripture. Bentley openly acknowledges the rougher parts of his juvenile past, including his near-fatal drug overdoses, criminal burglaries, assault, physical abuse of his mother and several stints in prison. In 2001, an article in a secular, conservative political magazine called The Report, prompted a mother to reveal about his molesting her 7 year old boy when Todd was 14. Bentley admitted to The Report “I was involved in a sexual-assault ring.” Lieutenant Jeff Johnston, a Salvation Army pastor in Port Alberni, B.C said “It’s one thing to be forgiving, it’s another thing to be stupid,” Lieut. Johnston says. “If you, as a pastor, had someone in your church ministry who had been involved in these things and they ever re-offended, the fact that you knew and didn’t disclose it to parents, take every precaution, would be a huge liability issue.” Christians realize that a soul can be saved by grace from any sin, however he personally claims that he was demon possessed after having been born-again, which poses a problem considering his self-acclaimed position.
A visit to one of Bentley’s services suggests that he knows how to turn the big crowds into big money. ATM machines were set up alongside food booths, providing attendees with readily available cash for the offering plate and book purchases. At Todd’s revivals, he sells “anointed” handkerchiefs, and takes money from people so that he may pray over them. This is normal with the people on the Elijah list, who believe God condones taking money from people so that they can prophesy over them.
Todd wrote on the etpv.org website in 2003 “Now let me talk about an angelic experience with Emma. Twice Bob Jones asked me about this angel that was in Kansas City in 1980: “Todd, have you ever seen the angel by the name of Emma?” He asked me as if he expected that this angel was appearing to me. Surprised, I said, “Bob, who is Emma?” He told me that Emma was the angel that helped birth and start the whole prophetic movement in Kansas City in the 1980s. She was a mothering-type angel that helped nurture the prophetic as it broke out. Within a few weeks of Bob asking me about Emma, I was in a service in Beulah, North Dakota. In the middle of the service I was in conversation with Ivan and another person when in walks Emma. As I stared at the angel with open eyes, the Lord said, “Here’s Emma.” I’m not kidding. She floated a couple of inches off the floor. It was almost like Kathryn Khulman in those old videos when she wore a white dress and looked like she was gliding across the platform. Emma appeared beautiful and young-about 22 years old-but she was old at the same time. She seemed to carry the wisdom, virtue and grace of Proverbs 31 on her life.”
Without any exception that I have found, every questionable spiritual movement is marked by intervening Angels giving guidance, not necessarily God’s Word or the Holy Spirit of Truth. Muhammad, Joseph Smith, Jose Luis De Jesus Miranda, Jerry and Esther Hicks, Rhonda Byrne, Helen Schucman, JZ Knight… the list is long for those who are popular and have spirit guides from the fallen realm. Bob Jones and Todd Bentley and their spirit guide “Emma” are no different. Todd attributes his “miracles” according to his own testimony, is from an angel that he says is called “Emma”. It should be interesting to note, in the book of angels, Emma (Imma Ila’ah, feminine, in the Kabbalah) means “Embrace Everything.” Also closely related, another name used is “Emma-O“, which in Japanese mythology means “King of Hell” or Satan.
Todd’s progressive “body suit,” which is a term for a complete body tattoo, is covered with Japanese symbols, occultism and Christian depictions. Shown in this photo is the warrior Apollo, who in mythology and alchemy, his spiritual and symbolic significance is identical with that of the sun. The spreading golden hairs which crown the god’s head have the same meaning as the bow and arrow (sun rays). The Greek name for Apollo is Apollon, which means ‘from the depths of the lion”. Apollon was the great Olympian god of prophecy, oracles, healing, and the aversion of plague and general harm. He is also call Apollyon in scripture, or Hebrew “Abaddon” (Rev. 9:11) also identified as the king of the demonic “locusts” described in Rev. 9:3-10. The locust was a delivery method of this god, who poisoned his victims. Why would Todd choose to embellish a fierce god of destruction on his body?
One of the tattoos that have puzzled people are the three large Japanese Kanji symbols on his left arm. Eternal Path turned to expert Takanori Tomita, a native speaker of Japanese and fluent in English, who translates Kanji, Hiragana, and Katakana Symbols. Kanji are ideographic characters. Each Kanji character represents an entire object, idea, or meaning in a visual character(s). Many Kanji characters are similar to each other, and some can have different meanings depending on context. The first letter on Todd’s arm means DAI=Big or Great, the middle one EI=Protect or Defend, the last one OU=King or Monarch. In Japanese, DAIOU is often added to provide honor to the subject of mention. In proper order, it would seem to read “Protect Great King,” however not only is the order wrong, but the character in the middle is incorrectly rendered. Furthermore, even if the middle character is used at the top, there’s no such word combination like “Protect the Great King”. It doesn’t make any sense in Japanese even if the order of the characters are corrected and the middle character is properly written. It is not unusual for Western tattoo translations to be in error. The middle symbol does not represent the Chinese character “David” in this context, as is widely speculated.
Alex Mizuno, another individual versed in Japanese tradition and writing styles, who produces Japanese documentaries, revealed that there is a Japanese word “Emma Daioh” which means “Emma, the Great King”, which is used very commonly in his culture. This God is sometimes simply called “Emma-sama (sama is added for respect)” or “Emma.” Buddhists recognize Emma-sama as Yama, who rules the spirits of the dead in Naraku (hell). He said Todd’s erred tattoo was in favor of the latter translation. The tongues of flame accenting the Kanji symbols also support his position depicting the god of Naraku.
After Todd’s alleged conversion, he had tattooed under his arm a depiction of Jesus’ crucified upside-down face with a subliminal monkey in the beard. Above the tip of the head, is a tattoo of what is said to be Oni, a “Buddhist guardian devil” of Hell. An argument is lifted up against Todd’s ongoing tattoo additions. Under the old law, it was written:”You shall not make any cuts in your body for the dead nor make any tattoo marks on yourselves: I am the LORD.” Leviticus 19:28. Even though Christian’s are not under the law to fulfill righteousness, as they are saved by grace, they are to uphold it (Romans 3:31). The question has been asked, why does Todd continue to add graffiti to his body in opposition to the Biblical standard?
The leaders of this revival in question have fruits that should be examined. For example, Bob Jones “was removed from the Vineyard Anaheim because of sexual improprieties, which consisted of encouraging women to undress in his office so they could stand ‘naked before the Lord’ in order to receive a ‘word.’” I am sure as a man; he was moved by pure motivations. Todd “Bam” Bentley runs and kicks people in the stomach with metastatic stage IV colon cancer while ignoring children lined up in wheelchairs, who hope in vain that the revival is real and they might get healed. Instead people leave in a hypnotic state from the charismatic frenzy. Similar events are plaguing Asia, thanks to the West’s influence (video – video).
Some attendees speak of new oppressions and those who purported to be healed from a malignant condition die shortly thereafter anyway. It has been questioned by some critics of Todd’s ministry, all Biblical divine healings lasted for the rest of the person’s natural life, why doesn’t his? Todd and those serving with him claim documentation to support numerious healings, 50,000 in 90 days, however when pressed by Geraldo Rivera on FoxNews (video) and ABC Nightline (P1 – P2), nothing has been provided to date, despite Todd’s promise to reveal proof.
In Jesus’ time, healings were not debated over as if they were legitimate. It was undeniable and plainly evident to all, skeptics and believers alike. In Matthew 11:5, Jesus was recording as responding to John the Baptists question “Are you the one who was to come, or should we expect someone else?” Christ responded, “The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those who have leprosy are cured, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is preached to the poor.” No regenerative miracles are evident at Todd’s revival, despite his claims, however some non-regenerative type healings are reported.
How does one explain minor healings if there is in fact a question regarding the authenticity of Todd’s manifestations? We are warned explicitly in Scripture that the devil transforms himself into an angel of light”, and that in the last days will come ‘Lying signs and wonders’ that will “deceive if possible the very elect.” Paranormal healing has been in existence in the world since the creation, performed by shaman and faith healers. It is the oldest healing art. But the problem with this type of healing is that it is a lying wonder and opens the door to demonic influence, demonization, even possession. A lying wonder is not necessarily a false wonder or false miracle, but it is, more importantly, a miracle claimed to be from God but whose source is really from the realm of darkness. This type of healing leads the person into bondage to the enemy, symptoms that some recipients have reporting under Todd’s revival.
Rev. Jeff White, a pastor at a local Missionary church in Lakeland, heard so much talk about Todd Bentley and the revival tent that he wanted to see it for himself. He struggled with what he saw. “I’ve had to fight skepticism and cynicism because I truly believe that God heals. I really believe his powers are real and it is for today,” White said. “I can’t say that my spirit enters in and joins in with some of the things we’ve seen here tonight.”
Attaining a trance-like state as many do at these revivals, doesn’t immediately reveal anything about the origin of the manifestation. Every spiritual manifestation can have one of three different origins (divine, demonic or human). The discerning of spirits is necessary to identify the origin. Because the same manifestation, like falling down and shaking violently or tongues for example, can be caused either by God’s Spirit, by a demonic influence or merely by the person’s own propagations. Trances, prophetic ecstasy and manifestations are expounded from both the Old and New Testament. Interesting occurrences of ecstasy can be found in the biblical stories of Adam, Abraham, David and Saul, Daniel, Peter, and Paul.
Undisputedly, there have been revivals in Europe and other parts of the world since the Early Church. A very long time before John Wesley, Jonathan Edwards, Smith Wigglesworth or the Pentecostal awakening, Europe has experienced the gifts of the Holy Spirit, healing, deliverance, manifestations of the Holy Spirit. The gifts and manifestations of the Holy Spirit have been present non-stop since the Apostles. Church history clearly reveals this fact. However, a believer must be wise as a serpent, but gentle as a dove regarding the testimony of the leaders of such movements, comparing their words and actions to the Word of God. We are to test all things and hold fast to what is good.
Much of what is touted as Spiritual anointing by the charismatics is merely the awakening of the Kundalini by means of ancient occult methods. Kundalini is a well known occult practice, deriving its origin from India. It involves bodily manifestations as a consequence to the ‘Awakening of the Kundalini.’ This is not a mystical fabrication or belief system, but a practice that is strongly promoted by the New Age Movement (2006 Article Here). The Kundalini awakening does contain the most unbelievable expanded states of reality, enlightenment, and absolute ecstasy and it is extremely contagious. However, like crack stimulates dopamine, a Kundalini awakening opens wide a person’s spiritual core, removing safeguards placed by the Creator. The end results can traumatize one’s spiritual fabric, leaving a soul scarred for life.
At the beginning of the Florida Outpouring, Todd claimed that God had requested that he lay hands on everyone present for ten nights of special transfer or impartation. This power in the occult is called the shaktipat. “Shakti” means power or energy, and “pat” means transfer. Kundalini awakening or (shaktipat) is the infusion of energy from the spiritual master to the seeker, bringing about the awakening of the seeker’s own inherent spiritual power, called “Kundalini.” Todd described this transferable “anointing” as the most contagious he had ever experienced. He said “I used to feel the anointing in my hand; now I feel it in my spine.” It is true that the occult Kundalini awakening does indeed start in the lower spine.
The meetings which mystic Hindu gurus hold are called ‘Darshan’. At these meetings devotees go forward to receive spiritual experience from a touch by the open palm of the hand, often to the forehead, by the guru in what is known as the Shakti Pat or divine touch. In a group setting, the transfer of this power will spread like fire to all in attendance who are mentally open and receive the touch which results in all manner of physical manifestations. Involuntary bodily movements; jerking, tremors, shaking; spontaneous vocalizations; burning sensation; sounds in the head; confusion and stupor; gyrating and pulsating; or when slain, unable to move. These manifestations are called ‘Kriyas’ by the Hindus. Often devotees move on to higher states of spiritual consciousness and become inert physically and appear to slip into unconscious stupor. This state is called ‘Samadhi’ and it leads to a deeper spiritual experience. The Buddhist suttas mention that samadhi practitioners may develop supernormal powers that can lead to very uncomfortable occult manifestations.
There will be many false workers, or many “Who are called by His name”, but very few will be genuinely authentic, this is just the facts (Matthew 7:22). The anointed servant are those who work without seeking recognition or fanfare as Christ and the Apostles humbly served. The Holy Spirit filled doesn’t seek fame, recognition, money and may never be known, such is the humble and contrite of heart. Those of the Pharisee spirit, egocentric and endued by principalities and powers, seek an exuberant audience, accolades, affirmation, financial gain and make a spectacle of the precious gifts of God like a side show circus. Those given to the extreme charismatic (emotional or fleshly) bent are susceptible prey to these types of leaders, whereas such is the power of hypnotic manipulation through the drone of their voice.
Let us stop for a moment and ponder, least we forget, “God is not the author of confusion, but of peace. As in all the churches of the saints.” 1 Cor. 14:33. The Lord told Elijah to stand on the mountain “Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the LORD, but the LORD was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake. After the earthquake came a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper. When Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face…” 1 Kings 19:11-13. God’s spirit does not reside in chaos or the dramatic shaking of the physical, His Spirit dwells in the quiet, gentle, calm, and peaceful.
A. W. Tozer sums it up perfectly in his normal etiquette and precision: “Many tender-minded Christians fear to sin against love by daring to inquire into anything that comes wearing the cloak of Christianity and breathing the name of Jesus. They dare not examine the credentials of the latest prophet to hit their town lest they be guilty of rejecting something which may be of God. They timidly remember how the Pharisees refused to accept Christ when He came, and they do not want to be caught in the same snare, so they either reserve judgment or shut their eyes and accept everything without question. This is supposed to indicate a high degree of spirituality. But in sober fact it indicates no such thing. It may indeed be evidence of the absence of the Holy Spirit. Gullibility is not synonymous with spirituality. Faith is not a mental habit leading its possessor to open his mouth and swallow everything that has about it the color of the supernatural. Faith keeps its heart open to whatever is of God, and rejects everything that is not of God, however wonderful it may be. Try the spirits is a command of the Holy Spirit to the Church. We may sin as certainly by approving the spurious as by rejecting the genuine. And the current habit of refusing to take sides is not the way to avoid the question. To appraise things with a heart of love and then to act on the results is an obligation resting upon every Christian in the world. And the more as we see the day approaching.”
A.W. Tozer: Discernment

Tozer sums it up perfectly in his normal etiquette and precision: “Many tender-minded Christians fear to sin against love by daring to inquire into anything that comes wearing the cloak of Christianity and breathing the name of Jesus. They dare not examine the credentials of the latest prophet to hit their town lest they be guilty of rejecting something which may be of God. They timidly remember how the Pharisees refused to accept Christ when He came, and they do not want to be caught in the same snare, so they either reserve judgment or shut their eyes and accept everything without question. This is supposed to indicate a high degree of spirituality. But in sober fact it indicates no such thing. It may indeed be evidence of the absence of the Holy Spirit. Gullibility is not synonymous with spirituality. Faith is not a mental habit leading its possessor to open his mouth and swallow everything that has about it the color of the supernatural. Faith keeps its heart open to whatever is of God, and rejects everything that is not of God, however wonderful it may be. Try the spirits is a command of the Holy Spirit to the Church. We may sin as certainly by approving the spurious as by rejecting the genuine. And the current habit of refusing to take sides is not the way to avoid the question. To appraise things with a heart of love and then to act on the results is an obligation resting upon every Christian in the world. And the more as we see the day approaching.”
“I actually live about 45 minutes away from Lakeland, FL where Todd Bentley has set up his camp. Though I did not see him personally, I went just yesterday to Ignited Church that he is connected with. I visited a 10 am service that occurs daily, and there were probably 1,000 people there. Keep in mind that I am a worship leader/young adult pastor at a large non-denominational church, and consider myself a charismatic with a seatbelt on. I do believe in the spiritual gifts, including tongues, prophecy (which I have), and miracles or healing. I prayed to God to let me have an open mind, and for His Holy Spirit to guide me in worship and also in discernment. As I entered the lobby/ cafe area I noticed something right away: No one greeted me and there were no crosses or anything that made me feel like I was at a Christian church. As I walked into the main worship area (that had no hint of anything Christian) the music had just begun and was very hypnotic, building up with chants in tongues by the worship leader and his other vocalists. Right away I felt like I was at a Hindu, Buddhist, or New Age meeting. It was creepy to say the least. Again I prayed to God to help me have an open mind, but I was very distracted by people speaking in a deluge of tongues, and dancing around through the rows of seats. The music went on for about an hour, with the worship leader laughing and jerking uncontrollably, and chanting in tongues between singing and playing a piano. A man then came on stage to introduce a prophetess who was to bring a message from God, a prophecy that she had been given for the church. She immediately began by speaking in tongues, and calling down the glory of God into the room. By this time the congregation had been worked into a frenzy from an hour of hypnotic music and babbling tongues, and was crying out and shaking, and laughing, and crying, and screaming, and dancing, it was all going crazy at once. Again I tried to pray and ask God to help me have an open mind and discernment. It was tough to hear God, to feel God through all the chaos…but then the Spirit quickened a word to me. He reminded me of what Paul wrote in 1 Corinthians 14 about orderly worship. It was then that I left that “church” building as quickly as possible…”

“Eternal Path, thank you for the honest and correct discernment about the Lakeland Revival. I know all of these people you have mentioned and you are very correct. I laid hands on Baptist pastors Wes and Stacy Campbell for the Baptism of the Holy Spirit of which they and their leadership received. Shortly after, they joined a Vineyard church where they began to get involved in all the stuff they are currently into. I have watched these people become more and more deceived and have humbly approached them about it. They want nothing to do with me anymore. Todd was a baby Christian with a testimony when he went into full time ministry. After being touched by Todd and Bob Jones, young people have become oppressed by demon spirits which torment them with intense fear. I have had to pray over and lay hands on a number young people in spiritual bondage. It required deliverance of their minds and a healing of their souls that had been opened up to the evil spiritual realm. I have preached against these antics for years now and have endured much persecution. Bob Jones is said to astral travel into women’s closed rooms when they are undressing. I have had several come to me with that traumatic experience. I could go on and on, but I just want to say “Thank You” for speaking truth and know that you are in my prayers. Some of these people are dangerous, they are known to sending evil curses against those who oppose them, Bob Jones in particular. He has mentored Todd and most of the others also. They became spiritually damaged after traveling with him. Stick to your message and let’s pray that God will bring a true revival of Jesus, the cross, holiness, and repentance to the USA. Thank you for your comments about William Branham. I always discerned his gifts as false, coming from familiar spirits and healing demons. I am 70 years old and have watched this movement grow and grow over the last 40 years. You have been raised up by God for such a time as this. For so long, I did not hear a voice but mine in opposition to this deception, now I am hearing many and you are one. Thank You!”

Pastor Jon Speed:
As of August 2008, the Canadian preacher announced the end of his visits to Lakeland, he told his staff that his marriage is ending. Without blaming the pace of the revival for Bentley’s personal problems, his board released a public statement saying that he and his wife, Shonnah, are separating. The news shocked Bentley’s adoring fans and saddened those who have questioned his credibility since the Lakeland movement erupted in early April 2008. One can only pray that Bentley responds humbly to a process of stepping out of ministry for a season of rehabilitation.
We are weathering an unprecedented season of moral failure and spiritual compromise in our nation today. Those in they way of discerning faith still believe that God desires to visit our nation in supernatural power. We know He wants to heal multitudes, and we must continue to pray for a healing revival to sweep across the United States. But we must contend for the genuine, not an imitation. True revival will be accompanied by brokenness, humility, reverence and repentance—not the arrogance, showmanship and empty hype that often was on display in Lakeland. Let’s pray that God will turn this embarrassing debacle into an opportunity for miraculous restoration.
“Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way.” Psalm 119:104
“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.” 1 John 4:1
“Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.” Matthew 7:15
“At that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or, ‘There he is!’ do not believe it. For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect—if that were possible. See, I have told you ahead of time.” Matthew 24:23-25
“For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.” Jude 1:4
“But the Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons.” 1 Timothy 4:1
“But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will also be false teachers among you, who will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them bringing swift destruction upon themselves. Many will follow their sensuality, and because of them the way of the truth will be maligned; and in their greed they will exploit you with false words; their judgment from long ago is not idle, and their destruction is not asleep.” 2 Peter 2:1-3
“I know that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock; and from among your own selves men will arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them.” Acts 20:29-30
“See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the basic principles of this world rather than on Christ. Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you for the prize. Such a person goes into great detail about what he has seen, and his unspiritual mind puffs him up with idle notions. He has lost connection with the Head, from whom the whole body, supported and held together by its ligaments and sinews, grows as God causes it to grow.” Colossians 2:8, 18-19
Is this the Maitreya?
Following video does offer us some interesting info. My main question at this point is, how old is this man? Benjamen Creme has been touting Maitreya for over two decades. Is this man even old enough to be the Maitreya? Just a thought.

WIKI had this to say about Raj Patel:
Born in London to a Kenyan mother and a father from Fiji, Patel received a B.A in Philosophy, Politics and Economics, from Oxford, a Masters Degree from the London School of Economics and gained his PhD in Development Sociology from Cornell University in 2002. He has been a visiting scholar at Yale and the University of California, Berkeley. As part of his academic training, Patel worked at the World Bank, World Trade Organization and the United Nations. He has since become an outspoken public critic of all of these organizations, and claims to have been teargassed on four continents protesting against his former employers. Patel was one of many organizers in the 1999 protests in downtown Seattle, WA, and has organized in support of Food sovereignty. More recently he has lived and worked extensively in Zimbabwe and in South Africa. He was refused a visa extension by the Mugabe regime for his political involvement with the pro-democracy movement. He is associated through his work on food with the Via Campesina movement, and through his work on urban poverty and resistance with Abahlali baseMjondolo and the Landless Peoples Movement. He has written a number of criticisms of various aspects of the policies and research methods of the World Bank and was a co-editor, with Christopher Brooke, of the online leftist webzine The Voice of the Turtle.
He is currently a visiting scholar in the Center for African Studies at the University of California at Berkeley, a Fellow at Food First, also known as the Institute of Food and Development Policy, and a Research Associate at the School of Development Studies at the University of KwaZulu-Natal in South Africa.
In 2007 he was invited to give the keynote address at the University of Abahlali baseMjondolo graduation ceremony. In 2008 he was asked to testify on the global food crisis before the House Financial Services Committee in the USA. He is regularly interviewed on the BBC, NBC, Al Jazeera, NPR etc.
In 2009 he joined the advisory board of Corporate Accountability International’s Value the Meal campaign.
Patel became a US citizen in January 2010.
Has Maitreya been revealed?
The following article gotten here http://www.share-international.org/magazine/old_issues/2010/2010-01.htm tells us that Maitreya has given His first interview on American television. Millions have heard Him speak both on TV and the internet. Hmmm, wonder who it was?
Maitreya steps forward
The way prepared by His Herald the ‘star’, Maitreya, the World Teacher, has given His first interview on American television. Millions have heard Him speak both on TV and the internet.
His open mission has begun
He was introduced not as Maitreya, the World Teacher and Head of our Spiritual Hierarchy, but simply as a man, one of us. In this way He “ensures that men follow and support Him for the truth and sanity of His ideas rather than for His status.”
RedeemedHippie:[What this means is, he is coming in through the backdoor -- like a thief. He wants everyone to know him BEFORE he reveals himself in hopes that people will have accepted him by then. This is deceitful in and of itself.]
He spoke earnestly of the need for peace, achievable only through the creation of justice and the sharing of the world’s resources.
This is the first of many such interviews which will be given in the USA, Japan, Europe and elsewhere, bringing His message of hope to the world.
——————————————————————————–
Benjamin Creme made this announcement at his public lecture at Friends House, Euston Road, London, on 14 January 2010.
Please note: Share International has no further details about this interview (date, time, network, etc), for the following reason: it is very important that everyone has the opportunity to respond to Maitreya because they want for the world what He is advocating — sharing, justice and peace — rather than because they think He may be the World Teacher.
Redeemedhippie:[Ah, the appearance of humilty is nothing more than a treacherous deceit. I wonder how many christians will be taken in by this man of peace?]
When humanity sees Maitreya, whether they recognize Him or not, they will feel obliged to support Him or to reject Him and all He stands for: sharing, justice and peace.
Redeemedhippie:[But of course. Who wants to appear they are not for sharing, justice and peace? If people are not testing things, they will fall for this. Unfortunately, many within the body of Christ WILL fall for it. Many leaders -- secular and church -- will fall for it. But we are to test all things and make the word of God our plumbline.]
Thus will men be divided and known. Thus will the Sword of Cleavage perform its destined task, and thus will Maitreya know the readiness of men for change. Appearing before men as one of them, the Great Lord ensures that men follow and support Him for the truth and sanity of His ideas rather than for His status.
RedeemedHippie:[Whoever this man is, the truth is not in him. He is NOT Jesus Christ, Buddah or the 12th Iman or any other religious leader the world may be looking for.]
Nevertheless, it matters not whether they recognize Him as Maitreya, as the Christ, or simply as a man Whose wisdom coincides with their own aspiration for justice and peace, for a better world for all men.
Redeemedhippie:[Oh but it does matter. It matters very much who we end of following.]
Gradually, we must assume, many will begin to see Maitreya as the One awaited by all religious groups under their various names, and will call Him thus. Some will say: “He must be the Mahdi,” while others will declaim: “Krishna has come again, the law is fulfilled!” Others will ask: “Surely he is the Messiah, come at last,” while still others will see Him as the Christ or Maitreya Buddha. All will see Him as their Expected One, fulfilling their hopes and come to fulfill their needs.
RedeemedHippie: [He is an imposter, a liar, a fake, a phoney. Whatever your religous beliefs are right now, be forewarned -- this is NOT who you are looking for.]
Maitreya will neither affirm nor deny these claims nor should those among His workers who believe they have recognized Him. Not until the Day of Declaration will Maitreya acknowledge His true identity and status.
RedeemedHippie:[By then it may be too late for some. If you have not tested this man, you will embrace him as truth.]
On that glorious day men will know, beyond all gainsaying, that their long wait has not been in vain, that help, indeed, is at hand, that the Teacher is ready to aid and guide. That He comes as an Elder Brother rather than a Saviour, ready to take the lead to save our planet, and to enable men themselves to restore sanity to their lives and ways of living.
RedeemedHippie:[LIAR. To take one of the many names of Jesus -- the Elder Brother -- and give it to an anti-christ makes Maitreya and Benjamen Creme imposters. He comes not as a Savior but he comes to save the planet? Sounds like he is coming as a savior to me. There is only One who saves. That is Jesus Christ. There is no other name whereby men can be saved.]
Solution
Maitreya will show that our problems are many but solvable. That the solution to all is already in our hands. That the simple act of sharing, alone, has the power to transform life on Earth for the better. He will ask for man’s trust, as an Elder Brother, that He will not lead them into other than their destined path of harmony and love, that they have nothing to fear but their fear, and that the way ahead already has the blueprint of the Divine.
Thus will Maitreya ease the way for men to embark on a transformation huge in scope, involving all men and women everywhere, a transformation which will launch humanity into a glorious enterprise, the restoration of Planet Earth to its rightful place among its sister planets of our system.
RedeemedHippie:[Do not be deceived, for many anti-christs have gone out into the world. Maitreya is a thief, deceiver and a liar. Be watchful and continue to test all things.]
EVIL – LUTION – How Embarrassing! (More Questions Evos Cannot Answer)
Got kids? Let them see this.
I’ve come to a conclusion that most evolutionists just want to appear intelligent or cool. When in truth, they could not look more stupid and UNCOOL.
