Behold, the worst attempt at curbing pornography in the history of emotionally manipulative, yet theologically vapid speech-making:

Lou Engle Doubles Down on Dumb Idea: "2020 is The Year of Stadium Christianity!"

Lou Engle is convinced that the Holy Spirit declared 2020 to be the “Year of Stadium Christianity” even as all public events are being canceled around the world.

Lou_Engle_the_Call_Nashville.jpg

In a recent article, where he called for a 3-day fast to end the coronavirus, Lou had a verital festival of irony, as he failed to see how unbiblical, contradictory, and presumptuous he was.

  • Lou is not backing down on his assertion that the Holy Spirit has “marked 2020 as a year of stadium Christianity and explosive advance of the kingdom.”

  • The gigantic Send event in Argentina scheduled for April 25 must be canceled because all public events have been banned.

  • Lou Engle should probably say something like this: “Oops. I was totally wrong about the plans of God…”

  • Instead of admitting he was totally wrong, he (you guessed it!) blames the whole global pandemic on Satan, because the Send was about to bring about “The Greatest Revival the World Has Ever Seen.” So now everyone needs to pray even harder than they already were. And don’t eat, either.

  • If you don’t believe The Send was about to conjure up the greatest revival in world history, just watch some of their emotionally manipulative videos and marketing material and you’ll change your mind.

  • Lou says: “It is our conviction that the storm of this pandemic has been stirred up by a high-level demonic principality…” Some might have guessed that this pandemic was stirred up by a low or mid-level demonic principality, but Lou has added clarity to this issue.

  • Lou was pretty sure he should call for a fast and then “a great evangelist from Europe, Jean-Luc Trachsel, texted me and said, "Lou, don't miss this moment. Call a fast across the world and shatter this coronavirus!" I felt it was the word of the Lord.”

  • So the coronavirus is shattered, according to Lou Engle and Jean-Luc Trachsel.

“Together, in the victory Christ has already won on the Cross, we will speak to this coronavirus, saying, “Be thou removed!” As we do, let’s believe together that this pandemic will abate, stadiums will be filled, elections shifted, and 2020 will go down in history – not as the year where the nations collapsed – but as the year of historic advance of evangelism and missions worldwide!”

— Lou Engle on March 18, 2020

“Thou shall prepare a stadium before Me, and I shall deliver unto you the great revival that you’ve been talking about for, lo, many decades.”

— Not In The Bible

“Every single day I see miraculous healings. It’s normal Christianity. I could have ended this world-wide pandemic, but I’ve been in my secret place.”

This article is being written on March 26, 2020, and the 3-day fast did not stop the worldwide virus pandemic, but Lou Engle will continue to revered as a top leader of the New Apostolic Reformation.

Todd White, Bill Johnson and Benny Hinn Race to China To End the Coronavirus!

Todd White, Bill Johnson, and Benny Hinn are going to demonstrate, once and for all, that they are doing “greater works than Jesus!”

In an unprecedented move of supernatural power and public relations, these three Apostles of Faith are dropping all of their lucrative speaking engagements in order to end the Coronavirus.

Here’s Todd White on his way to the airport, thinking about all of the many healings he will soon be facilitating in China.

Here’s Todd White on his way to the airport, thinking about all of the many healings he will soon be facilitating in China.

Bill Johnson, senior pastor at Bethel, Redding, took a few minutes to hold a press conference at the airport before rushing off to the catch his flight. “We know that there is no coronavirus in heaven, and we’re supposed to bring heaven to earth, so this is my chance to prove the validity of my beliefs by actually doing something supernatural-just like Jesus,” said Johnson. He continued in a tone of both pious reflection and pseudo profundity, “I know that I spend a lot of time on stages all over the world telling people how we’re all supposed to do greater works than Jesus, even though I have done nothing even approaching the miraculous works of our Lord, so this is my chance to either put up or shut up.” Reporters were not certain whether Johnson was holding back tears, or if he had accidentally swallowed his breath mint as he left the press conference and handed the keys of his Aston Martin to an assistant had had been struggling with “Papa Bill’s” overflowing cart of Louis Vuitton luggage.

The Holy Spirit is the spirit of the resurrection, and the Holy Spirit took up residence in every believer, and He wants to flow through us to demonstrate the resurrection of Jesus. Every miracle demonstrates & reaffirms that Jesus is alive. We owe the world an encounter with God, and I will give every person suffering with the coronavirus an encounter of God’s miraculous power. Talk is cheap, and I’m done making speeches.
— Bill Johnson

Benny Hinn, not wanting to let his declining age or dwindling crowds diminish his reputation as the World’s Greatest Healer, wasted no time catching a first class flight out of Los Angeles on his way to China. Although Pastor Benny did not make the details of his trip public, insiders in his organization, who wish to remain anonymous, reported that he demanded that no layovers in India take place, as he is known to hate the smell of that country.

The newcomer to this trio of Apostles is Todd White, who not only made a public announcement of his plans to end the coronavirus, he also broke into a beatboxing song about how healing the people of China is “normal Christianity.” Mr. White quickly ended his song when he noticed that most of the people in the room had left.

Here’s a photograph of Todd White, outside of the airport in Beijing, checking the first person he met for the coronavirus:

As soon as the coronavirus has been eliminated by these faith healers we will update this article.



On a related note, Kat Kerr was not able to raise the funds to buy a plane ticket to China, but she promises to do her part to end the coronavirus in much the same way as she has moved hurricanes.

Randy Clark: Global Awakening (to the Demonic)

Here’s a quick little video that shows how Randy Clark likes shocking people with his (very painful) anointing more than he likes the Bible:

UPDATE! The original video was removed from the global Awakening Facebook page right after this video went public.

We're Looking for the Harrisburg, PA, Pastor Born With Polio That Todd White Healed!

Todd White has recently appeared in a video where he tells the story of how he healed a pastor in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, of a leg that was three and a half inches too short. We want to hear from that man!

This man was the head pastor of a church in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, that taught against healing until Todd proved him wrong. Todd says that this man’s leg grew out immediately, and the pastor was forced to denounce his former disbelief in healing.

We want to meet this man and hear this amazing story directly from him!

This man must have been changed forever by this miraculous healing and we’re sure he would want to tell the whole world about what the Lord has done. We would love to see before and after photos and, of course, we’d really love to see the medical reports of this incredible miracle!

To help locate this man, here are the specifics of his story as told by Todd White:

  • This man told Todd White that he was “born with polio” but you CANNOT be “born with polio!” This medical impossibility alone should make him very easy to find, and on top of that, the Centers for Disease Control states that polio has been ELIMINATED in the United States!

  • Polio is spread through feces, so a mother cannot pass it down to her infant through conception. This pastor is probably listed as a bizarre anomaly by polio experts in the medical field-he’s probably easy to find in a database for polio research!

  • His leg was (very specifically) three and a half inches too short. Apparently, Todd White had a measuring device with him and decided to do a short leg documentation (“SLD”). This will make it very easy to find this man! Even if Todd White has helped lots of people grow out their legs in Harrisburg, PA, (while he was working for an ice delivery company), this is probably the only one who had a three and a half inch discrepancy. Good thing that Todd did a SLD!

  • The effects from polio do not always include having one leg too short, although the physical deformities resulting from polio could include such a condition. So not only was he born with polio (which is impossible), but he also had a shortened leg as a result. (Isn’t it funny how just about every illness that Todd White claims to heal involves a short leg? If only the medical field would catch on to this short leg epidemic!)

  • This man was the head pastor of a church in Harrisburg, PA, that (very specifically) taught that God never heals anyone. Ever. His church was “part of a denomination that didn’t believe in healing” and he “preached against it his whole life.” This particular denomination holds to a very strange and rare theological distinction, which should make it very easy to find. Although Todd White claims that he meets lots of pastors who “preach against healing” he probably misspoke, since pretty much all Bible-believing churches believe that God can, if He chooses, heal people today. Todd is probably a little confused, since he believes the Word of Faith teaching that says God always heal today, (if we give Him the right commands and exercise enough faith). Unfortunately, Todd White has had no theological training but has just read some books by Word of Faith expert, Kenneth Copeland (his mentor), so he doesn’t understand that God is sovereign and cannot be controlled by us.

  • This miraculous three and a half inch leg growth had to have taken place between 2004 (when Todd claims he was radically saved) and about 2007/10, because this was before he went into full-time ministry with Dan Mohler, which seems to be somewhere around 2007 or a little later. Todd says he was working a job delivering ice when he met the pastor and healed his short leg. So, just to put a time frame on this, the pastor had his three and a half inch leg miracle sometime between 2004 and about 2010 or so. This is just a 6 year window, making it pretty easy to nail down the specifics of this story!

  • In Todd’s retelling of the story, this pastor saw Todd in his dreadlock hairstyle and seemed to dislike it. This is a very peculiar detail since Todd looked like this in 2007/2008, according to Dan Mohler’s old website, which is shown here from web archives:

The "Young and Rich" Youth Conference at Encounter Christian Church (NOT Satire)

This is real…

This is the Word of Faith Movement & New Apostolic Reformation & The Encounter Gospel coming to full fruition.

Yes, this bad doctrine is horrible.

Yes, these young people are being lied to in the name of God.

Yes, this destructive teaching will ruin many lives.

But there is something even worse than all of that…

Bethel Promotes "Prophetic Uno" Card Reading Exercise

Dr. Michael Brown Thinks Private Jets SAVE Money

If you buy a jet for millions and millions of dollars you can save a lot of money… This is NOT satire, this is something that Dr. Michael Brown actually seems to believe.

After a two-minute Google search we learned that bus fare is cheaper than air fare. Wow! The things you can learn by doing a tiny amount of research! I guess if you want to learn something you shouldn’t Ask Dr. Brown…

Screen+Shot+2019-06-06+at+1.30.54+PM.jpg
Screen+Shot+2019-06-06+at+1.44.21+PM.jpg
Screen+Shot+2019-06-06+at+1.47.19+PM.jpg
Screen Shot 2019-06-06 at 1.50.33 PM.png

So, using the lowest annual cost of $700,000 and dividing it by 12 months the cost to operate a jet is at least $58,333.33 per month. That comes to $1,944.44 per DAY. A more expensive jet would cost $5,000 to $10,000 per DAY. If Kenneth Copeland bought a new ticket every single day, he would have to spend at least $1,944.44 on each ticket to equal the cost of running one private jet, and that doesn’t even figure in the cost of actually purchasing the jet.

Kenneth Copeland owns 3 jets.

Dr. Michael Brown is not good at mathematics. Do not Ask Dr. Brown about these things.

dollar-2387088_1920.jpg

Postscript: A number of people have suggested that the correct meaning of Dr. Brown’s tweet is more like this: airfare is more expensive than bus fare and yet it’s still okay for a minister to take a commercial flight, so why isn’t taking a privately-owned jet also okay?

Hmmm. That could be what Dr. Brown meant.

If that’s the way Dr. Brown intended it to be read, I apologize for mischaracterizing his tweet in that regard.

However, Dr. Brown’s conclusion is still a terrible one. Spending millions and millions of dollars on private planes to fly around in luxury for personal pleasure is what Kenneth Copeland is doing. Everybody can see what kind of manipulative and greedy man he is, and only the truly deluded believe he’s got three private jets to “spread the Gospel.”

Furthermore, Dr. Brown makes a huge mistake by teaching that an executive of a large corporation is in the same category as a minister of the Lord Jesus Christ. If a business executive can purchase and use a private jet it’s because he’s got money available from his own company for that purpose! Kenneth Copeland takes money from donations and treats himself to earthly pleasure at the expense of foolish people who send him money, often because they’ve been taught that giving to Copeland will cause God to shower them with money as well. This is really sick and twisted and Dr. Brown doesn’t seem to care.

Here is a critique of Dr. Michael Brown’s latest attempt to justify the “frugality” of owning a private jet:


Here are Kenneth Copeland and his mentor, Oral Roberts, making it 100% clear that they LOVE MONEY. Oral laughingly says (at :57 seconds in) “Silver and gold have we plenty” as Kenneth Copeland yells out “hallelujah!” This is a demonic reversal of the words in Acts 3:6, where the Apostle Peter said “silver and gold have I none.” Dr. Michael Brown will never watch this video. He will never watch any video, ever. Go ahead and try to send it to him. Dr. Brown, I KNOW that you will see this article. You are covering up the greedy, sinful, and blasphemous Kenneth Copeland. Shame on you.

Kenneth Copeland loves his airplane collection because he loves worldly wealth and possessions.

Here's what Jesus said about earthly riches:

Matthew 6:19-21 "Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."

Matthew 13: 22  "The seed falling among the thorns refers to someone who hears the word, but the worries of this life and the deceitfulness of wealth choke the word, making it unfruitful."

Mark 8:34-37  "Then he called the crowd to him along with his disciples and said: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me and for the gospel will save it. What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul?"

Luke 12:32-34  “Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father has been pleased to give you the kingdom. Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will never fail, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."

Luke 16:13-14 “No servant can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will hold to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money. Now the Pharisees, who were lovers of money, were listening to all these things, and they were scoffing at Him.”

Here's what the Apostle Paul said about preachers getting rich and the sin of greed:

2 Corinthians 2:17  “Unlike so many, we do not peddle the word of God for profit. On the contrary, in Christ we speak before God with sincerity, as those sent from God.”

1 Timothy 6:5, 9-11  “...and constant friction between people of corrupt mind, who have been robbed of the truth and who think that godliness is a means to financial gain. (9) But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. (10) For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs. But as for you, O man of God, flee these things.

1 Corinthians 5:11-13  "But now I am writing to you not to associate with anyone who bears the name of a brother if he is guilty of sexual immorality or greed, or is an idolater, reviler, drunkard, or swindler-not even to eat with such a one. For what have I to do with judging outsiders? Is it not those inside the church whom you are to judge? God judges those on the outside. Remove the evil person from among you."

Titus 1:7-11  “For the overseer must be above reproach as God's steward, not self-willed, not quick-tempered, not addicted to wine, not pugnacious, not fond of sordid gain, but hospitable, loving what is good, sensible, just, devout, self-controlled, holding fast the faithful word which is in accordance with the teaching, so that he will be able both to exhort in sound doctrine and to refute those who contradict. For there are many rebellious men, empty talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision, who must be silenced because they are upsetting whole families, teaching things they should not teach for the sake of sordid gain.”


Here's what James has to say about earthly wealth:

James 1:9-10  "But let the brother of humble circumstances glory in his high position; and let the rich man glory in his humiliation, because like flowering grass he will pass away." 

James 5:1-3  "Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries which are coming upon you. Your riches have rotted and your garments have become moth-eaten. Your gold and your silver have rusted; and their rust will be a witness against you and will consume your flesh like fire. It is in the last days that you have stored up your treasure!"

Here's what the Apostle Peter said about preachers getting rich:

2 Peter 2:1-3  “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.”


Here’s the Apostle Peter making it very clear that he was NOT wealthy:

Acts 3:5-7 “And he began to give them his attention, expecting to receive something from them. But Peter said, ‘I do not possess silver and gold, but what I do have I give to you: In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene—walk!’ And seizing him by the right hand, he raised him up; and immediately his feet and his ankles were strengthened.”

Here's what the book of Hebrews says about getting rich and earthly success:

Hebrews 11:13-16  "These all died in faith, not having received the things promised, but having seen them and greeted them from afar, and having acknowledged that they were strangers and exiles on the earth. For people who speak thus make it clear that they are seeking a homeland. If they had been thinking of that land from which they had gone out, they would have had opportunity to return. But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared for them a city."

Hebrews 11:32-40  "And what more shall I say? For time would fail me to tell of Gideon, Barak,  Samson, Jephthah, of David and Samuel and the prophets-who through faith conquered kingdoms, enforced justice, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, were made strong out of weakness, became mighty in war, put foreign armies to flight. Women received back their dead by resurrection. Some were tortured, refusing to accept release, so that they might rise again to a better life. Others suffered mocking and flogging, and even chains and imprisonment. They were stoned, they were sawn in two, they were killed with the sword. They went about in skins of sheep and goats, destitute, afflicted, mistreated-of whom the world was not worthy-wandering about in deserts and mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth. And all these, though commended through their faith, did not receive what was promised, since God had provided something better for us, that apart from us they should not be made perfect."

Hebrews 13:5  “Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, ‘I will never leave you nor forsake you.’” 

Here's what the Apostle John says about getting rich:

1 John 2:15-17 "Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you. For all that is in the world-the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride in possessions-is not from the Father but is from the world. And this world is fading away, along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever."

Here's what Jesus says in the Book of Revelation:

Revelation 3:16-19 "So because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of My mouth. Because you say, “I am rich, and have become wealthy, and have need of nothing,” and you do not know that you are wretched and miserable and poor and blind and naked, I advise you to buy from Me gold refined by fire so that you may become rich, and white garments so that you may clothe yourself, and that the shame of your nakedness will not be revealed; and eye salve to anoint your eyes so that you may see. Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline; therefore be zealous and repent."


Clayton Jennings: Sexual Predator or Christian Evangelist?

Screen Shot 2019-03-26 at 8.56.59 AM.png

Clayton Jennings has over 800,000 followers on Facebook. He has over 450,000 subscribers on YouTube.

And he’s been caught doing and saying some really disgusting things.

His response has been to fight back against those exposing his dark deeds and to attack the young women left in his wake. He has a knack for portraying himself as a victim to maintain the support of his (largely female) fan base. This is a man who clearly should be repenting for his sins and stepping down from his favorite place: the spotlight.

  • This is what happens in the “church” when attractive celebrities are valued above sound teachers.

  • This is what happens when the “church” only cares about being “relevant” and “transparent.”

  • This is what happens when the “church” abandons Scriptural authority and ecclesiastical authority, in order to pursue a “spiritual but not religious” path.

  • This is what happens when the “church” over-reacts against angry fundamentalists who only preach the Law and fail to preach the Gospel.

  • This is what happens when the “church” sees theology as an enemy of faith, and the manipulation techniques of egomaniacs are allowed to run wild.


UPDATE!

The website “The Clayton Jennings Files” has been hacked into and all that information is currently unavailable. Here’s a (very offensive) screenshot from that site that we’ve saved:

Shawn Bolz Does Google Cold Reading at The Send as Holy Spirit Takes a Nap.

In a recent press conference the Holy Spirit spoke about recent events at The Send, in Orlando, FL on Feb. 23, 2019. “After so many hours of hypnotic, mid-tempo, repetitive music I just had to lay down and close my eyes for a few minutes,” said the Holy Spirit in a somewhat apologetic tone. “Well, that few minutes turned into several hours of blissful, uninterrupted sleep. I must’ve really needed the rest after being conjured up repeatedly throughout the day.” A reporter from Charisma Magazine asked Him, “How did Shawn Bolz get such an accurate word of knowledge about Dennis Melnichuk if you weren’t even awake to feed him the information?” The Third Person of the Trinity shifted uncomfortably in His chair for a moment before replying plainly, “Mr. Bolz did what was necessary, under the conditions of the moment: he got a few names off of the The Send registration list and did a quick Google search to retrieve pertinent information for the purpose of building up the saints.” After a few whispered gasps could be heard, an awkward pause filled the pressroom as everyone considered the gravity of the situation.

A young reporter from the Orlando Examiner asked Him, “Sir, please forgive me if my question is out of line, but basically you’re saying that Shawn Bolz lied… and, and, he pretended to get supernatural help from you when it was really information he just found online??” The Sovereign God of the Universe seemed unfazed by the confrontational, yet legitimate, question. He answered without hesitation, “Look, here’s how this works: I’m a busy guy, I’m doing stuff for people all day long, so I’m not gonna sit here and apologize for anything. These people wanted to see a “sign from God” and they got exactly what they wanted. I’m all about results, and Shawn Bolz got results.” As if He was energized by His newly-found transparency He continued, “Do any of you people have any idea what it’s like to be shouted at all day long? Have you ever had a stadium full of people begging and pleading for you to do stuff all day long? In the hot Florida sun?? No, you haven’t. I was exhausted, I took a nap, Bolz did the right thing to appease the sign-seekers, and everyone was happy. Heck, they’re still happy! Even after they learn that the whole thing was fake they refuse to believe it because they like it so much. I call that a success. No more questions.”

The Holy Spirit then got up to leave, taking with Him a large glass of freshly-squeezed Florida orange juice. The roomful of reporters began to lightly applaud as Benny Hinn pulled up in his gold-plated Ferrari to provide taxi service, as the two were reportedly on their way to attend Lou Engle’s “Kundalini Workout Program.” Mr. Hinn could be heard to say “watch out-this thing doesn’t have cup holders!” as the two sped off, making their way through the Orlando traffic.

Christalignment Bethel Fortune-Telling New Age Naked with Jesus Extravaganza!

Last year we made a big deal about the Australian organization called “Christalignment” and its pagan practices covered in a sugary Christian coating. Well, there’s more.

Thanks to the Encounter Gospel of Christalignment, one lady had an encounter where “Jesus” petted her while she was completely naked. Here’s the latest Fighting for the Faith video on this topic.

Christalignment is a very small group that was briefly scolded by Bethel Super Apostle, Kris Vallotton, who thought the idea of “Christian tarot cards” was “insane” and whoever was doing this needed to “repent and stop the craziness…”

25158017_10105252177251690_7992169858875559773_n.jpg

Kris Vallotton removed his post the next day and did a 180 degree flip flop-he endorsed his new Christalignment friends, while he also attempted to blame the “fake news media” for creating the problem (you know, his post on his Facebook page). Read about the whole story here: Kris Vallotton RUNS From His Own Facebook Post!!

Bethel Church is one of the biggest, most influential churches in the world, and they support the New Age Fortune-Telling “ministry” of Christalignment 100%.

Here’s a post where Christalignment is welcoming the “lovely Bethel crew:”

To hear a very detailed (and disturbing!) interview with Jenn Hodges, check out this recent podcast:



The Christalignment team is convinced that their sort of “undercover” approach to ministry is the only way to reach the non-Christian world. While it is a great goal to reach unbelievers with the Gospel message of Jesus Christ, it does not do any good if they never hear the Gospel message of Jesus Christ. The foundational message of Jesus dying for the redemption of guilty sinners seems to be completely missing from the Christalignment “gospel.” In video after video, people who have an “encounter” in a “Destiny Reading” are always “at peace with who they are,” or they “feel encouraged to continue on the path they’re on.” What is the point of reaching people just so they can continue believing the same thing they believed all along?

We encourage everyone to go out and preach the Gospel, but it only matters if it really is the Gospel.

God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
— Romans 5:8
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.
— John 3:16-17
He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed. For you were straying like sheep, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.
— 1 Peter 2:24-25
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God put forward as a propitiation by his blood, to be received by faith. This was to show God’s righteousness, because in his divine forbearance he had passed over former sins.
— Romans 3:23-25
For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures.
— 1 Corinthians 15:3-4

Todd White Exposed-Fake Leg Lengthening Trick!

The following short clip was taken from the new movie The American Gospel: Christ Alone:

When this clip was posted to social media, most of the comments were positive, however, when we look at negative comments from Todd White supporters it is very revealing. Anyone who watches this clip (whether they’re a Christian or not) can see that Todd White is performing a cheap parlor trick-he is not making a leg miraculously grow. There are plenty of videos on YouTube that have exposed this fraudulent leg lengthening trick for years. Everyone can see the trick with their own eyes… except those who refuse to see it.

Here’s a harsh reality: We are, in many cases, dealing with the type of thought control and thinking patterns associated with religious cults. None of the Word of Faith/New Apostolic Reformation supporters will deal with the reality that Todd White is scamming people with his fraudulent leg-lengthening trick. Instead, they attack the critics (like me, Steve Kozar, or this film’s maker, Brandon Kimber) as “religious Pharisees.” Darren Wilson, who made the Holy Ghost films that helped bring Todd White to prominence, must retain his followers by avoiding any honest discussion of the obvious trick that Todd White is perpetrating. Todd White will probably never make mention of the American Gospel film by name in public, but we can expect him to make ad hominem attacks against it. We can expect to hear him say something like this: “There’s a heresy hunter movie out there that doesn’t think the Holy Spirit is active in the world anymore… but we know different, don’t we?!”

The Holy Spirit is truly active active in the world today, but He’s not doing street magic and performing psychosomatic healings.

Kevin Zadai Breaks HPM (Heresy Per Minute) World Record!

In the following video, you’ll see a strange mixture of:

  • A Twilight Zone episode,

  • A New Age training session,

  • An insurance salesman who is somehow turned into a carnival barker for the Yak Lady who also has a side job as a fortune-teller that specializes in acquiring retirement accounts from the elderly and senile (oh wait, that was simply a description of Sid Roth)…

    Kevin Zadai has set a new HPM (Heresy Per Minute) world record!

    Watch his video and be amazed:

Bonus points will be awarded to anyone who can make it through all 28:31 of this Festival of False Teaching!

In case you’re concerned that this man calls himself “Dr.” Kevin Zadai in spite of not being a doctor, you can rest assured, because he was ordained by “Dr.” Jesse Duplantis (who isn’t a doctor either):

James Goll Gets Discernment 100% WRONG!

TheDiscerner.jpg

The Elijah List sent out this promotion for James Goll’s new book:

The Discerner: Hearing, Confirming, and Acting on Prophetic Revelation -- by James W. Goll

Everything is backwards, upside down and twisted in this strange world of the NAR Super Apostles. Yes, discernment is truly something lacking in the Christian Church today, but with teachers like James Goll it is getting much worse.

Instead of looking to God’s all-sufficient Word, Goll is teaching people to become fortune-tellers and soothsayers, while tacking on a few Bible verse here and there to appear legitimate.

Here’s an awful and blasphemous quote from Goll:

Screen+Shot+2019-01-13+at+6.59.41+PM.jpg

“The Word became flesh” is a reference to Jesus Christ, but Goll gleefully attributes the qualities of God to himself. This is “Blasphemy 101.”

And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth.
— 1 John 1:14

This verse is all about Jesus being the Word that became flesh. Obviously! But James Goll turns it into a verse about us being the word that became flesh. What the?? This is so terribly wrong that maybe James Goll is some obscure cult leader, right?


Nope.


Here are some of the NAR leaders who endorse him and his latest book:

Screen+Shot+2019-01-13+at+7.23.42+PM.jpg

Discernment is what the Holy Spirit gives us THROUGH THE BIBLE! False teachers like James Goll are always giving speeches and writing books that claim to have new information that will help you learn stuff that goes beyond the Bible. On top of that, they end up taking God off the throne and climbing into the driver’s seat themselves.

For more of an explanation, here’s a similar article about Goll’s fellow NARpostle, Jennifer LeClaire:

Jennifer LeClaire Gets Discernment 100% WRONG!

By the way, we expect Dr. Michael Brown to remain silent as his fellow writer commits blasphemy…

God is "Releasing Audacious Exploits in People's Hearts" says Charismatic Clown Ryan LeStrange

person-show-profession-clown-illustration-disguise-683387-pxhere.com.jpg

Ryan LeStrange has a keen ability to say absolutely nothing while using a large number of words. Check out his recent article in Charisma Magazine:

Prophetic Dream: 'I Am Releasing Audacious Exploits in My People's Hearts'

LeStrange wants to be considered an important Apostle and he is doing all the right stuff to advance his standing among gullible Charismatics who desperately seek after the latest new thing. For instance, he pretends that being considered an Apostle is of no value to him, while he tries to validate his “Apostolic position” in the following quote:

I had received an email from one of the prophetic fathers in America. He made a reference to me about being a next-generation apostolic leader on the East Coast. I didn’t give it a lot of thought, but within a few days, I had a series of prophetic dreams about the East/West connection of glory in the United States and the implications for the nations...
— Ryan LeStrange (demonstrating the "Humble Brag")

See what Ryan LeStrange did there? When some big whig prophetic father suggested that LeStrange should be getting an Apostolic promotion he “didn’t give it a lot of thought.” But then God Himself assured him (and us, too, apparently) that LeStrange was really worthy of this Apostolic position (but only for the East coast, for the time being). But then LeStrange says this: “I believe the Father is showing us an East/West glory corridor that is opening up. There is an announcement of reform and glory traveling east to west and west to east. There is a merge of the apostolic and prophetic along with powerful miracle ministry that gets the attention of nations.”

In summary:

  • Ryan LeStrange is an East coast Apostle (but he is too humble to come right out and announce it directly).

  • God is: “releasing audacious exploits in the heart of my people” and “causing old wells to collide with fresh outpourings.”

  • There is an East/West glory corridor thingy opening up.

  • Ryan LeStrange had some dreams that meant something (that only he can really understand).

Do NOT doubt the words of Apostle Ryan LeStrange!

If you think he’s just a bloviating, self-promoting windbag, you really need to read his biographical description on Charisma Magazine (so you know it must be true!):

  • Ryan LeStrange is an apostolic and prophetic revolutionary, laboring to see global awakening.

  • He is the founder and apostolic leader of a global network of ministries known as TRIBE Apostolic Network.

  • He is the senior leader of the iHub movement, planting and overseeing a network of governing churches, apostolic hubs, and revival hubs.

  • Ryan is also a real estate investor who is active in the business arena.

  • Ryan is an accomplished author.

Francis Chan Invites Christians to Become "Wolf Food" at (Yet Another) Conference

Francis Chan is partnering and endorsing false teachers: Todd White, Heidi Baker, Bill Johnson, Mike Bickle, Lou Engle and others at the upcoming “The Send” conference. The Send is the latest version of The Call, except it has the word “Send” where the word “Call” used to be.

Here’s a video where Lou Engle disturbingly rocks back and forth as he explains the whole “The Call has Become The Send” thing; you’ll also see Daniel Kolenda and his gigantic muscles, as well as Benny Hinn’s son-in-law, Michael Koulianos and some YWAM guy with really cool hair as they all walk along the beach in slow motion (so you know this is of God):

The Send promises to be the most important, life-changing conference the world has ever seen-in fact, it’s more than a conference, it’s a double portion conference where everyone is going to be catalyzed to collaborate, so they can be activated with momentum… or something.

This is the conference where lives will forever be changed by getting thousands of people to hold up their shoes:

If my people, who are called by my name, will hold up their shoes in a large gathering, I shall hear their cry, and I will establish an unending speaker circuit where the young and gullible will hear much talk.
— 2 Expectations 6:1-3

Evangelical Superstar, Francis Chan, has fully embraced the New Apostolic Reformation speaker circuit and has become its newest crossover member. Once considered a mainstream, Bible-focused Evangelical, Chan has made it clear that he stands with Todd White, Heidi Baker, Bill Johnson, Lou Engle, Mike Bickle and the rest of the hyper-charismatic, New Order of the Latter Rain, NAR, Signs & Wonders fringe (except that now these people have become so popular that nobody thinks they’re the fringe anymore).

Francis Chan believes this is the kind of conference Jesus would promote.

Watch this video to see Chan’s pleading invitation, and then see the very disturbing manifestations associated with Heidi Baker, Bill Johnson and Mike Bickle:

Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. “You will know them by their fruits. Grapes are not gathered from thorn bushes nor figs from thistles, are they? So every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, nor can a bad tree produce good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. So then, you will know them by their fruits. Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter. Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you who practice lawlessness.’
— Matthew 7:15-23
