If you are a person that must be liked or approved of by others, you will have to refuse your flesh in order overcome churchianity. If you can answer an emphatic “yes,” to the following statements as conditions of your own flesh, refusal will eventually be in order, if you are going to effectively resist the devil:

• I try to avoid being alone

• I let other people decide what to do.

• I get upset when people don’t include me in their activities;

• I am stressed if I don’t include other people in my plans;

• I am easily led;

• I hate any form of confrontation;

• I can’t stand being left out of things;

• I am emotionally dependent upon people.

So one way to crucify your flesh is by refusing to act out its nature. Besides refusing your former nature without Christ, there are times when you also have to refuse your former perception or understanding as it relates to spiritual and religious matters. In fact, refusal is one of the ways that we cast down our imaginations, and every thought that is contrary to our obedience to the inner leadings of the Holy Ghost.

For example, if you have assumed that God would not allow the enemy to deceive you under any circumstances, to resist the devil that is assigned to you, you will have to refuse every thought connected to this false assumption.

Here is a personal example—just one of many.

It was revealed in 2008, that in 1996, when I founded a church, my decision was not led of the spirit but it was a walk in the flesh, coupled with the leading of a religious fallen angel assigned to me. As is the nature of deception, I personally believed that I was led by God at the time. However, with the discernment and the enlightenment that I have received over time, I can look back now with clear, objective understanding. For what  was confusing and complicated in 1996 is both obvious and simple today.

Consequently, once my eyes were fully opened in 2008, I had to exercise refusal by closing the church doors. It should be pointed out that the Lord did not tell me to close the church. Yet His revelation to me was so clear, that this was the action that must be taken, for if He did not cause me to open this church, it followed that i needed to cut off a bad decision at its root and close it down.

Certainly I had to face strong opposition to closing it. Even though I closed down the building, members continued to attend worship services re-located to my daughter’s home until God opened her eyes as well. So in 2008, doors of the church i founded and pastored for 12 years were permanently shut, never to open again.

The crucial point to observe in this example is that as soon as I took the first step of refusal,  two important events occurred: I resisted the devil and the next revelation followed. The Lord made it quite clear to me that since the enemy was the secret force that led me to start this church in the first place, it logically and spiritually followed that other than my family members, each and every person who played a significant role in its operation was sent by the enemy also.

In 12 years, several people were involved. Out of all of them, today, I have contact with three adults from the former church: My daughter, my son-in-law, and his stepfather. For one by one, even the most committed members were progressively proven to be hypocrites. So my word to people pleasers is simply to “let go and let God!!!”

One of the reasons that makes witnessing to churchgoers both difficult and unpleasant is because they have not yet heard from the Lord in a revelatory way. Most of religious believe that if your argument is not bible based, then it is not worth listening to. So, a way to get through to them is using the scriptures in red. In other words, “What did the Lord Jesus say?” Use the Lord’s own words to reveal the truth to them.

The Lord Jesus presented a group of kingdom of heaven parables, most of which He did not explain, but he left some clues. One of the clues as depicted in Matthew 13, is the birds. Therefore, when you’re keeping things very general, your focus should be to rely on what the Lord said, what the Lord shared. And you ask your religious churchgoer,” what do they think that parable means?”

Listen to what they say. You also can ask questions. First of all Ask them, “what do the birds represent?” They won’t know. So remaining focused and patient, you highlight the verse which most people know by taking him or her to the parable of the mustard seed, that grew into a large tree. Jesus interpreted the birds in the parable of the sower where He states that the birds who ate the wayside seeds were “the wicked ones” or evil spirits.

So if the birds mean one thing in that parable, they have the same meaning when used by Jesus in yet another parable.

The trunk of that tree is the Catholic church, and the branches of that tree that come out of that trunk are the plethora of Protestant denominations and non-­denominations. They are the branches of that tree. there should be no argument that the tree is the system of the Institutional Church. in this context you can also clarify that the Body of Christ is not the Institutional Church where believers gather together for Sunday morning worship. So it will be relatively easy to distinguish the difference between the body of Christ and the Institutional Church. you should be able to get agreement the body of Christ consists of every born again person who ever lived, who’s living now, and who ever will live. Clearly, the body of Christ and the institution of church and religion are not the same.

Back in 1979, pictures were taken in the church that I attended. On the pictures of the pastor, you could see demons in him and on him. HE LOOKED LIKE THE TRUNK OF A TREE AND THE THREE DEMONS IN AND ON HIM HUNG FROM THE TREE LIKE BRANCHES. FROM THOSE BRANCHES, THERE WERE IMPISH FACES Hanging FROM THE BRANCHES LIKE FRUIT!!! In 1979, I did not understand how this photo was symbolic of a demonic takeover of the institutional church but today, I do. According to the Lord’s parable, “the birds” or evil spirits are permeated throughout the institution or system that we call “church.”

In a nutshell, the prophetic warning expressed by the Apostle Paul to Timothy amplifies the Lord’s parable:

Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron,

1 Timothy 4:1-2 –

The deceiving or seducing spirits in Paul’s prophecy are the birds in the Lord’s parable.

This article will be continued in part 2. Suffice it to say in my conclusion is that It is very dangerous for churchfolk to be listening to and feeding upon doctrines of devils uttered from worldwide pulpits, as well as TV, radio and the Internet. One of those dangers is idolatry which occurs during worship when the 10 commandments are broken. For WHEN MEMBERS GO TO THE ALTAR FOR PRAYER, THEY ARE PRAYING TO THE FAKE JESUS. Idolatry produces the plagues. The following is a long scripture but the first few verses tell the tale:

“But it shall come to pass, if you do not obey the voice of the Lord your God, to observe carefully all His commandments and His statutes which I command you today, that all these curses will come upon you and overtake you: “Cursed shall you be in the city, and cursed shall you be in the country. “Cursed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl. “Cursed shall be the fruit of your body and the produce of your land, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flocks. “Cursed shall you be when you come in, and cursed shall you be when you go out. “The Lord will send on you cursing, confusion, and rebuke in all that you set your hand to do, until you are destroyed and until you perish quickly, because of the wickedness of your doings in which you have forsaken Me. The Lord will make the plague cling to you until He has consumed you from the land which you are going to possess.

Deuteronomy 28:15-21

By Pam Sheppard

I am not the only one who knows the dangers of inducing an altered state. I found the following statement in a book called “Knowing the Facts about the ASC”. By John Ankerberg and John Weldon:

There are no indications in Scripture that people should enter altered states or trances in order to draw closer to God, a common theme in New Age circles. According to 1 Peter 4: 7 (and other Scriptures), Christians are to be “clear minded and self-controlled” so that they may pray or study Scripture. Thus, the biblical means of spiritual growth and sanctification, e.g. meditation on Scripture, prayer, fasting, “are surely not meant to put us into altered states of consciousness” (2659: 79). Further, as we have argued all along, these states are clearly open doors to the intrusion of demonic spirits.”

THE ALTERED STATE AND THE DENOMINATIONS

I have written extensively about the altered state and the Charismatics. Yet even though the denominational side is different, it can be equally dangerous. Over the last few centuries in the US, particularly the southern bible belt and the migration of Southerners to the north, pagan belief systems and practices got mixed into church dogma for several decades. . For example, in 1979, I joined a denominational church where the members not only frequented root workers to deal with the vicissitudes of life, the founding pastor, a native Caribbean, was also a practicing Obeah warlock. Consequently, witchcraft influences coupled with the fact that most denominational pastors and ministers are also active members of a freemasonry lodge, denominational doorways to Satan are less obvious to pinpoint. Add to this mix the Hispanic influence on religion via the practice of Santeria as well as the pervasive mysticism of Catholicism, and denominational paganism, the denominational religious experience may even equal or surpass the pagan power of the Charismatic Movement.

I have found that the affinity for repetition and the stirring up of emotional outbursts, is the denominational doorway to the altered state. Personally speaking, I have seen preachers who hoop their message have the charismatic capability of transforming a quiet, sedate congregation to enter an emotional frenzy through provoking an ASC. Under the influence of the beat of the music and specific keywords within the lyrics, I have witnessed people literally ” go off”, when a soloist or a lead choir singer repeats Jesus over and over again. It goes from Jesus to JEAH, and then congregants start to literally fall out on or over the back of the pew or jump up into the aisle and do what is called the holy dance. Women dressed with fashionable hats, designer suits and high heels find themselves disheveled, hat and shoes knocked off, rolling around on the church rug. If you ask any of them to give a summary of the sermon, you will undoubtedly find that they cannot remember, as their minds went blank. Simply put, they were in the grips of an altered state of consciousness.

Now the denominational side is different but can be equally dangerous. How does one get into an altered state within a denominational church? Well, one of the ways is through repetition. There is a lot of repetition in traditional denominational worship services. I studied hypnosis decades ago. A part of putting a person into a trance involves repetition and visualization. Think of the songs. Many of them are hypnotic. Check out various preaching styles. When the preacher uses a repetitive cadence, it can cause people to enter an altered state. Repetition coupled with a hypnotic cadence can lead to the stirring up of emotional outbursts. For example, I have seen preachers who hoop their message, cause a quiet congregation to suddenly erupt into an emotional frenzy that provoked an ASC. I have seen people go off, when a soloist or a lead choir singer repeats Jesus over and over again. It goes from Jesus to JEAH, and then attendees start to literally fall out or jump up and do what is called the holy dance. You ask them to give a summary of the sermon and they cannot as their minds have gone blank.

Furthermore, the authors also warn about the influences and effects of paganism upon the modern world:

Altered states also have important commonalities. They can all impair one’s ability to test reality, to think critically and logically or to remember. They create a passive state in which mental events seem to develop on their own and are simply experienced rather that being controlled. Many also weaken emotional restraints, allowing moods to swing from wild jubilation to deep fear and depression. In addition, they can all create perceptual distortions and hallucinations and precipitate unusual bodily sensations like numbness, dizziness, tingling or rushes of energy…. They can make people hypersuggestible, so they are open to many strange beliefs and are easily influenced by the suggestions of other people. Altered states have the singular ability to make all kinds of improbable events seem exceptionally real and significant…. One final effect of altered states is their apparent ability to facilitate or enhance mystical experience … (2659: 69-70).

In conclusion, to develop ASCs is not to participate in a form of higher consciousness or true spirituality, as New Age proponents would have us believe. Rather, it often involves abnormal, regressive states of consciousness—ones particularly conducive to demonic contact and manipulation. The radical change in worldview is characteristically toward the occult, encouraging both occult practices and occult philosophy. The growing acceptance of altered states by millions of people, their use in psychotherapy, medicine, education, and many other fields is a reflection of the growing influence of paganism in our society. (Ankerberg and Weldon)

As evidenced and confirmed by my own experience with the occult back in the mid 70’s, I discovered by practicing the altered state through self-hypnosis and meditation, I opened a path of communication between myself and seducing spirits. I did not know this at the time as the spirits identified themselves as people I knew who had died– those whom I liked and wanted to communicate with. Then a sequence of events started to evolve in both the content and style of the communications, aka channeling. Through automatic writing, I received religious messages pertaining to both Hinduism and Buddhism. Since I was an atheist, I was neither interested or impressed with these prolific religious teachings. In those days, I simply wanted to know my future more than anything else.

My point is that evil spirits need the altered state in order to directly communicate with us. If you are not actively trying to enter an altered state through purposeful practice, YOU CAN ALSO ENTER AN ALTERED STATE TODAY THROUGH VARIOUS FORMS OF CHRISTIAN WORSHIP LIKE PREACHING OR SINGING. . The most obvious practices are tongues as a prayer language , fire tunnels, slain in the spirit, various forms of wild intercession prayer, even some deliverance ministry practices. Yet for the sake of this article, I focus on the art of PREACHING, particularly among the denominations, especially the Baptists, the Pentecostals and ever increasingly, the Methodists.

PREACHING AND AN ASC

The last time I went to church, I had a memorable experience. This denomination had removed my name off the rolls in June 2004. Therefore, I did not know why I was returning to a place the Lord revealed that I must leave in order to be used by Him. Yet somehow, I knew in my spirit that I had the Lord’s permission. As I write this, I realize that God sent me back to the denomination for the last time, to be tempted by the devil. I was aware that the churches in the Northeast had recently been assigned a different bishop so I decided to visit the conference. IT WAS JULY23, 2008, a Wednesday afternoon.So I said to myself, “I will just sell some books.” The Fake Jesus had just been published so I brought some paperbacks with me to sell. The denomination’s annual conference was being held just a short distance from my home. I had an inner leading to attend.

I thought I was walking in on the business meeting but the new bishop had changed the programming. I actually walked in on a sermon.

Looking around, I observed that very few was paying any attention to the preacher, a man I knew well. Yet the Rev. seemed to be preaching directly at me but he did not even know I was there. I felt something grab me in the chest. This “force” was trying to make me respond to the invitation, come from the back and walk down that long aisle. They would think that I was returning to them. Or that I was repenting or something. I did not want to do it but it was like hands were pushing me in the back, I gave in and walked that aisle. The music was playing loudly, there were about 10 ministers and the Bishop behind the altar rail. I was in a TRANCE!!! I SNAPPED OUT OF IT WHEN I WAS ASKED “ARE YOU BRINGING YOUR MINISTRY BACK UNDER US? I CAME TO MYSELF AND HOLLERED OUT. NO!!! I JUST LOVED THE SERMON!

Actually Rev. Washington seemed to be preaching directly at me but he did not even know I was there. I paid particular attention to him because Rev. Washington was actually the only minister out of 100 of them who called to support me within a few days after they removed my name from the rolls under the guise that I did not pay my annual dues of $660. He informed me that in 3 months, I could be re-instated.

So as Rev. Washington was preaching, I felt something grab me in the chest. This “force” was trying to make me respond to the invitation, come from the back and walk down that long aisle. They would think that I was returning to them. Or that I was repenting or something. I did not want to do it but it was like hands were pushing me in the back, I gave in and walked that aisle. The music was playing loudly, there were about 10 ministers and the Bishop behind the altar rail. I was in a TRANCE!!! I SNAPPED OUT OF IT WHEN I WAS ASKED “ARE YOU BRINGING YOUR MINISTRY BACK UNDER US? I CAME TO MYSELF AND HOLLERED OUT. NO!!! I JUST LOVED THE SERMON!

Two days later, the Lord explained what happened to me. IT WAS THE PREACHING THAT PUT ME INTO AN ASC. AS TO THE PRESSURE I WAS FEELING IN MY CHEST, THE PUSH ON MY BACK, THE LORD SPOKE AND SAID. “IT WAS NOT ME.” I KNEW IT WASNT ME. SO IT WAS SIMPLE TO FIGURE OUT THAT IT WAS A SEDUCING SPIRIT AKA A RELIGIOUS EVIL SPIRIT OR DEMON.

When THE HOLY SPIRIT made The next statement, I was literally SHOCKED.. He said, the 3 dreams that you had in 1979 that led you to that church and to that denomination “did not come from ME. I NEVER SENT YOU THERE. NEXT He said, “that same power that came on you that Sunday in September, 1979, which fell on you and brought YOU to your knees, causing you to groan, wail and weep, IS THAT SAME SPIRIT THAT CAME ON YOU 2 DAYS AGO!!! Both times, IT WAS NOT ME!!!!!

SO DON’T SLEEP ON THE DENOMINATIONS. The preaching coupled with the emotional worship of the flesh, can also induce an altered state of consciousness and put you in contact with religious demons!!!!!

In conclusion, this particular experience with its subsequent revelations caused me to humble myself and ask God if I was called to ministry. For I recalled yet a similar experience that had occurred in that very church on the day that I responded to the call to ministry in the summer of ’81. At that time, A power DID come on me. A joyous power! The difference is that it was not sudden. Actually for months, I had received at least 10 signs that clearly revealed that I am one of God’s anointed workers. In more than one of those signs, I was called a prophet when I did not even know what a prophet was.

The Holy Spirit answered my question basically out of the scripture. In other words, look at the fruit. Even though He called me while I was in the denomination, He did not send me there as I had believed for 25 years. –I was not to minister to them, or for them or under their religious authority. In fact, the Holy Spirit only revealed my ministry FOR CHRIST UNTIL AFTER I HAD LEFT THEM!!!!

We must try all things.

The words of the prophet Hosea ring true. The Lord’s people are definitely destroyed for
a lack of knowledge. With deliverance counseling, demons will often leave on
its own accord once they realize that through deliverance counseling, you have
been armed with spiritual truth. They leave because they sense that your faith
has increased to stand against them. In other cases, demons have been hidden
within a person’s personality for so long, that the Holy Spirit will set up a
situation so that the demons will be exposed and come out of
hiding.

bullet and withstand the test by fighting your feelings, dealing with my
straightfoward style, believe me—NO ONE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD WILL HAVE TO
TRAVEL TO NEW YORK, BECAUSE JESUS IS LORD OVER THE TELEPHONE!!!!! YOU TOO CAN BE COMPLETELY SET FREE!!!!

PRE AND POST DELIVERANCE COACHING

Coaching  before and after deliverance is extremely important. Both of these forms of counseling will be conducted by a combination of email and telephone. Be advised that we will not conduct a deliverance upon anyone without a commitment to pre-deliverance counseling. Post deliverance coaching, though optional, is highly recommended to maintain a lasting and continued freedom.
You may need deliverance coaching if the following applies to you:
A person is held captive when he or she has been brought under the power of something that would cause them to lose their God given self control. Even when drug free and not physically addicted, a captive is controlled by an obsessive and compulsive mind that will relive his addictive/compulsive behavior in his thoughts, keeping alive the experience with the help of memory cells in his body that create physical and mental cravings.
Satan and his demons are the unseen forces that send messages to an
unsuspecting mind. of this kind. The captive assumes that his thoughts and
feelings are his own, since he or she experiences powerful urges in his or her
flesh. Demons choose the weakest time and place to attack, and since a
captive’s impulsive and compulsive behavior is predictable, it is a simple
matter for demons to attract, lure and trap a person into addictive/obsessive/compulsive behavior.

The following moments, circumstances and or places of weakness may have acted as doorways to demonic influence that led to your captivity and/or a need for deliverance:
A family and or personal background in the occult or false religions.

False religions include those that are assumed to be Christian.

These so called Christian religions include Catholicism, Jehovah Witness, Christian Science and the Latter Day Saints. (Mormons)

Family or personal involvement with the occult or any form of witchcraft.

The occult also includes a family or personal background in freemasonry.

Pressures in early childhood, including but not limited to physical or sexual abuse.

Other negative family issues include rejection and sibling rivarlry.

Sinful Acts or Habits, including but not limited to the breaking of the 10 Commandments.

Addictions of all kinds.

COULD IT BE YOU???

1.Patterns and trends— Within your family tree is a long line of substance
abusers giving the appearance of a genetic predisposition. This is NOT a curse
but a predisposition or tendency toward a certain lifestyle. Social and
cultural factors have been influenced by unseen demonic forces wherein by
example, you have developed a vulnerability to the substance abuse demon. A
review of Deuteronomy Ch. 27 points to the following as open
doors:
…idolatry or witchcraft
…oppression of the weak
…sodomy
…dishonoring of parents
…incest …theft
…injustice
…perjury

2. A background in the occult or false religions—If you have practiced
divination, sorcery, roots, santeria, obeah or some form of witchcraft, ie.
astrology, yoga, acupuncture, hypnosis, transcendental meditation, chanting,
reincarnation and the use of a Ouija board, to name a few, you have opened a
demonic doorway. These practices have also been linked to religious idolatry
or involvement in mediumship or psychic phenomena. I would include in this
list a family history of Catholicism, Mormonism, Hinduism, Buddhism, any
religion that calls itself Christian, but in any way adds to or detracts from
the gospel of Jesus Christ, particularly the divinity of the Son of God.
3.Pressures in early childhood— When as a child you were denied basic
emotional needs for love, safety and self esteem, you became vulnerable to
demons. Physical and sexual abuse are included here.
4.Emotional shock or sustained emotional pressure. Traumatic events such as
violence, incest or rape as well as a sudden and frightening accidents. These
kind of episodes are breeding grounds for demonic activity. Intense fear can
also lead to denial and escapism.
5. Sinful
acts or habits—Demons have a right of access when you made a conscious
decision to practice sin. Whoever practices sin over a prolonged period of time
is actually imitating the devil’s nature and character and cuts himself off
from the power of God. In particular, demons are attracted to sins of long
duration such as sexual immorality, including not only fornication but sodomy or
homosexuality.
6. Negative emotions —Anger, hatred, un-forgiveness, rejection, and self-pity can lead to rebellion. Rebellion is as
“the sin of witchcraft.”
7.Character defects. Unaware of the impact of unseen forces on your
personality, demons have been empowered to develop your mind, emotions,
feelings, and will. Your personality has become a mixture of your own soul
under the influence of demons.
Our major coaching goal is to help you to recognize hidden battlegrounds in your own life so that you can find victory in the blood of Jesus. There is no such thing as a
generational curse. Why not? Because The blood of Jesus broke all curses at
the cross 2000 years ago.

If most of this applies to you, complete the contact form below as a first step to deliverance coaching.
