A STORY OF MY JOURNEY FROM RELIGION, TO THE OCCULT, TO CHRIST:

leavingthechurch

Immersed in religion and church most of my life, I had NEVER heard the true Gospel, until June 26, 2012, delivered by Pastor Pam Sheppard. After being out of the institutional church for quite some time, I found Pastor Pam online, and was impacted by her interest in wanting me to have the truth, as well as the way she took the time to care about me and offer help for my transition out of religiosity and charismatic witchcraft.

No one else I knew who was in out-of-church ministry was doing this… I noticed various fruitless works of those who constantly bash the IC, yet offered no real solutions on how to move forward. I also had concerns about my salvation because even though I had a lot of Bible knowledge, I was NOT AT ALL impacted by the cross and resurrection….Being saved was all about ME getting into heaven. There was no Godly sorrow, no faith in the power of the cross and bodily resurrection. No faith=No Power.

Therefore, I was so grateful to finally hear the gospel of Jesus Christ for the first time. When Pastor Pam preaches and teaches the truth, she make sense of things. After watching the video, False Conversions 2, I finally GOT IT, and I was impacted by the Gospel of Jesus Christ like never before!!! I remember prior to this experience being “stuck” at repentance. I realized that in spite of my religious training through church attendance for decades, that I was not changed. While on a religious treadmill, I continued to search for the truth in different churches, but I could never find it… not until I STOPPED going to church and started my journey to truth.

While attending church , I ignorantly submitted myself to the enemy to follow the occult. thinking that my answers were perhaps there. The occult made me feel good and special, and was not boring like church, and so I had begun to put my faith in it…particularly because I had trouble accepting my life circumstances, and years later, my mother’s death. So connecting with Pastor Pam was especially beneficial to me because of her own former occult background. Once she showed me how all of those things that “appeared to be good” were actually of the devil, she also helped me denounce the occult.

Pastor Pam also helped me feel comfortable because she is relatable. Pastor Pam did not pass judgment on me because I claimed to be a “Christian” yet I also practiced the occult. She is the ONLY pastor I ever felt comfortable opening up to about my New Age involvement. She took time to educate me about ways the enemy uses the occult to trick people, and it wasn’t long after that, that I began to see for myself that the occult was not the answer. So the institutional church didn’t have the truth I needed, nor did the occult. I was left to just me…bare and naked before the Lord…which is right where he wanted me.

After being exposed to so many different denominations and types of churches most of my life, after being duped by the occult, and after being so confused about my salvation, all I wanted was the TRUTH. And through meeting Pastor Pam and becoming born again, I HAVE TRUTH!!!!!! NOT UNTIL PAM PREACHED THE GOSPEL TO ME ON THAT VIDEO ON JUNE 26, 2012. I stayed up late into the wee hours of the morning, watching her videos, and then the Holy Spirit did His work in me. It was like being transformed into a marvelous new thing that I had been waiting for all of my life, but just could never experience in the IC.

The fog has lifted! The blinders have been removed! The wool is no longer covering my eyes! I find myself on the other side of the looking-glass.

I am a founding member of RESCUE FELLOWSHIP ONLINE where Pam Sheppard has been my pastor for 5 years now. , I can NEVER go back to my religious past, knowing that I now live in truth…in reality. I am no longer asleep, under the enemy’s spell on the counterfeit side of the looking-glass. No more religion and no more false doctrines. No deception from the occult. No more confusion. I simply worship the Lord in SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH. I’ve got the REAL DEAL TODAY, and it feels so GOOD!!!!!!

by Pam Sheppard, Pastor of RESCUE Fellowship

 

What boggles my mind is the notion that NO ONE HAS GOTTEN SAVED IN OR BY THE institutional church  in at least 50 years because the Holy Spirit has not been there. Now church folk have been born again at home, ON airplanes, AT THE park, AT A FRIEND OR RELATIVES HOUSE, at the gym, BUT NOT seated on a church pew.

IT IS HARD TO FATHOM. Consider the SERMONS IN ALL THE CHURCHES GOING FORTH 52 Sunday’s, and studies on Weds, choir rehearsals, prayer meeting, AND NOT ONE BORN AGAIN!!!! In at least 50 or maybe more years. all the conventions, the TV watching of church services, AND NOT ONE BORN AGAIN!!!!

Formerly a pastor and an evangelist in the institutional church for 25 years, I cannot point to even one church member out of hundreds I have known  and declare with strong conviction  THAT I KNOW  “so and so” GOT BORN AGAIN IN CHURCH!!!!!!
It is scary. Almost as scary as death itself can be.

Churches were made to birth new BORN AGAIN  SPIRITS. BUT AS THE HARLOT,  SHE HAS DELIVERED NO NEW BIRTHS IN 50 years, perhaps a century.

What I share with you is not church bashing. I don’t bash the IC  because no one can pinpoint the human culprit, PRIMARILY BECAUSE the IC has been seized by cohorts of fallen angels and other seducing spirits. Corruption  has been spreading  for decades, perhaps centuries.

I watched the Academy Award movie, Spotlight. It was reported that the priests had been molesting kids in Boston for decades and more. The Boston Globe tried to focus on the Cardinal who covered up for all the priests under his charge. Yet when it all came out, the Pope promoted the Cardinal to a position in ROME!!!! This kind of cover-up is endemic not only to Catholics but to the entire institutional church.

SO WHO CAN YOU BLAME in SUCH A HOT MESS?

It makes me wonder if at the present moment,  there are 144,000 believers alive on earth in totality. AND HOW MANY OF them ARE IN CHURCH? There may be a few left among the elect of God still committed to the Harlot. Nevertheless,  I venture to estimate that the IC has very few born again members within Her.

If you would like to fellowship with faithful believers online, RESCUE may be for you.  Here is a short video description.  If interested, call 888-818-1117 OR EMAIL US AT rescueonfb@icloud.com

To Be Born Again, Wait on God’s Call!

By Pastor Pam Sheppard

 I have examined my salvation at least three times according to II Corinthians 5:13, seriously examined it, because it was so supernatural. And the reason my salvation is my only personal possession is because I never accepted Jesus into my heart. I never sought Him. In fact, I did not believe that He actually was a literal human being that lived on Earth. I thought He was a myth, made up by the white man to keep my black  people enslaved with all of His meekness and turn the other cheek behavior, which was not my  personality at all. I was not afraid of hell because I did not believe in hell either. I confess that I was both proud and adamant in my position as an atheist. 

So what I received was a call.

 The problem is that religious folk have “accepted”  Jesus before they heard His call. The call is not about going into ministry. The call is when God is reaching out to you to tell you, “I saved you before I created the foundations of the earth. I knew you when you were in your mother’s womb. Oh atheist Pam, you were an atheist for 33 years, but I knew you, and I called you.” And when you get a call, you get that call on a specific day and time. Now He may have been drawing you for years, and He definitely has sent angels to stand by and protect you to keep the devil from killing you before you heard the call. my day and time was Monday, March 29, 1977 at 4 pm. 

Everybody who is born again who is saved by God hears a call. And where does that call take you? It takes you to the cross. That’s where you gotta go. You gotta go to the cross. And you may not know then the victory of the Lord’s blood, the power of His blood to ruin all the enemy’s plans that he has for you, the power of that blood to keep you. That’s the meaning of baptism, you have been baptized into His death, into His cross and raised out of that water into His resurrection. Lord have mercy. The call will also take you to His resurrection.  The Holy Spirit will give you faith to believe that a dead man got up in the body He died in, and walked out of His grave alive, never to die again. 

It’s a call! So, those who want to argue with me on this subject, who want to say “well what about my will, what about my will and my decision to choose God?” You know that doesn’t even really sound right. How can we choose God while we are yet dead in our trespasses and sins?

Let’s see what the bible says about this. What about your willpower in this? 

I asked myself this question since I  was a person with a very strong willpower. In fact, I  stood against my grandmother every Sunday. There was a church and my grandfather was the pastor. As an eight year old, I stood with my willpower as a young child and said to Grandma Greta “NO, I’m not going to that church, I’m not going to your church. I don’t believe in Jesus, I WILL not go”, and I did not go!!! 

So what happened to my willpower when I got the call? It almost seems like it disappeared. I was just caught up, snatched up in the call. You say “prove it to me, show me in the bible.” Well look at Ezekiel the 36th chapter. This is the prophetic words of God about the new birth. He doesn’t mention Jesus by name, but He does mention Him. He says, “I will sanctify My great name, I will take you from among the heathen.” And that’s what happened to Me, the one my grandmother used to call a heathen. 

I was taken from among the heathen and gathered out. He says “I will sprinkle clean water upon you.” Look at God’s emphasis. On all the “I will’s.” He says “Iwillsprinkle clean water upon you. I will give you a new heart, I will give you a new spirit, I will put a new spirit within you, I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, I will put My Spirit in you, and I will cause you to walk in My statutes and you shall keep My judgments and do them.” 

And that’s what 40 years of my  life have been about. I  got caused to be where I am now. Why? Because He said “I will put My Spirit within you, and it is My Spirit within you that will cause you to walk in my statutes, and you shall keep my judgments and do them.” Lord have mercy. It’s the fear of the Lord, that Spirit within, that has caused ME  to be 40 years in Him. 

And then He says “I will also save you from all your uncleanness.” That’s what He does in Christ. Many have jumped out and said “I accept Jesus.” And so, since they accepted Jesus, then they have to cause themselves to keep the laws and the statutes and to obey God. It becomes a real work for them, but it’s a work without power. Why? 

They didn’t wait on the call. 

Wait on Him to call you. If you have a desire for Jesus Christ of Nazareth, then God is moving upon you. Wait for Him to call you. Don’t get duped into saying, “come into my heart.” Jesus Christ of Nazareth does not come into anybody’s heart. But the Fake Jesus does. If you need help, contact me at rescueonfb@icloud.com, because you are going to have to uninvite the Fake Jesus out of your heart, and you’re going to need some help doing that.

The Soul and False Conversion

HOW A FALSE CONVERSION OCCURS

Because the spirit and the soul are not separate but  tightly knitted or braided  around each other as are  the ligaments, marrow and jonts in our legs, it is difficult to discern the difference between the two.  The soul is easiest to recognize because the concerns and needs of “self” are generally apparent.  We recognize the “body” side of the soul because we can see the results through the activity of the natural frame.  We can see selfishness, ambition, competition, and jealousy  because the body,  through material and natural things, will engage in scenarios that expose self striving.   

However, where we fall short is in our ability  to discern the soul from the spirit, which is also “flesh.” I am considering a gospel account of the words of the Lord when a funeral procession went by. He turned to his disciples and said, “let the dead bury the dead.”  How can the dead bury the dead? What Jesus was actually saying is “let the spiritually dead bury the physically dead.” Meaning: those who are alive in both the body and the soul have a dead spirit.  A dead spirit is one that is separated, alienated, and without God in the world.  That is a dead spirit.  It doesn’t mean that there is no awareness or activity in the spirit.

The spirit of the lost is very much alive in the kingdom of darkness, but he or she is alienated from the kingdom of heaven. It makes itself known through various nightmares and irrational fears.  When it is active, man’s dead spirit is open to the hellish dark world of spirits ruled over by the Prince of darkness. When it is both active AND powerful, the spirit is capable of a variety of supernatural feats including but not limited to clairvoyance, clairaudience and astral travel or out of body experiences.

When a lost or alienated person “accepts Jesus” as Lord and Savior, it can’t be the spirit who does so because the spirit  of that person is dead, alienated, and walking according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that works in those who are disobedient by the lust of their flesh.  In such a condition, the soul has to take over.  In the lost, the soul fulfills the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and the lost person has the nature of self consciousness.

So since a dead spirit cannot “accept God,” the soul takes over in its parts: mind, emotions and volition or will and says, “I accept Jesus as Lord and Savior” and begins a religious ritual that imitates intimacy and relationship. The working of the enemy through the mind or ideas of man quenches the work of the Holy Ghost to quicken that person’s spirit.  For the powers of darkness are keenly clever in working alongside of and simulating the born again experience.

When a person is REALLY born again, the soul takes a back seat.  The Holy Ghost “quickens” the spirit through repentance. As defined by Paul to the Ephesians, to quicken means to be made alive.  As Jesus Christ was raised from the dead physically or bodily, to be born again is to be raised from the dead spiritually. In other words, a dead spirit has been raised to becoming a vessel for the Holy Ghost.  Since the spirit does not have a will, volition is a choice or decision made by the soul.  What the spirit has is intuition. Paul revealed that the reason the spirit is raised from the dead is because “God is rich in mercy.” So the resurrection of the spirit begins in the intuition and then translated into  understanding  by the soul.

When the soul “accepts Jesus,” the spirit remains dead but with great acting skills, the soul can religiously  imitate the things of God. The fallen spirit of man, alienated and separated from God is sunk down into the soul so that the soul manifests as intellect or sensuality, often in both. In such cases, the soul reigns over both the spirit and the body. The way that the new life reaches the spirit is shown in the Lord’s own words: You must be born again.  The Holy Ghost “breathes” where ever He chooses. This is not the decision of man but the will of God.

The believer who has been raised from the dead in the spirit to newness of like is born of the Spirit or “born again.” The Holy Ghost, who takes up a dwelling place in the reborn spirit, has given the believer a revelation of the Cross and the Lord’s resurrection. This revelation is first received in the spirit. As James indicates in his letter, the wisdom that is from above—from the Holy Spirit—is pure, peaceable, gentle, merciful—without any element of the life of the soul—opinions, self views, strife-jealousy. So when a person is born again, the spirit imparts  understanding  to the soul through the mind, will and the emotions.

What is happening among those who claim that “they accepted Jesus,” is that they have done so through the soul and therefore, their spirits have remained dead.  The intellect of one whose spirit is dead is decidedly fallible and becomes the most dangerous of the soul’s gifts because God seekers use their minds to understand spiritual truths.  The scriptures reveal that the soulish man cannot receive the things of the Spirit, because they can only be spiritually discerned.

According to the late great Jessie Penn Lewis, “It is the soulish element in teachers and professors of holiness, which is often the cause of separation and disunion.  There may be, it is true, love in the heart to those who ‘differ,’ but the ‘differences’ divide nevertheless, because the demoniacal powers, able to work upon the soulish element in the believer, always emphasize or exaggerate the difference in “views of truth,” instead of magnifying the points of union, and even drive eager believers to ‘fight’ for their view of ‘truth,‘ under the name of ‘witnessing for God.” It is also the soulish element in Christians which insists upon the minute correspondence of others its ‘views of truth,’ and ‘tithe mint and anise and cumin’, in words whilst leaving ‘undone the weightier matters of the law’—which in the gospel dispensation of the Spirit between believers as the condition of their growth into ‘unity of the faith. ‘In brief, the soul-life, influenced by evil supernatural powers, is the main cause of divisions and separation among the professing, and even the true children of God.”

For this reason as pointed out by Sis. Jessie, the churches are filled with nominal worshippers of Christ, who show no marks of a true Christian life within them. In a nutshell, influences that bypass the spirit and only reach the soul may prepare the way by bringing the seeker within the reach of the truth which is read from the scriptures.  Outer strivings may make for a kind  self righteousness that  has a value and place in the world.  However, by virtue of these outer trappings, such seekers  will be fooled into believing that the strivings of the soul is evidence that he or she is born again.  Not so.  Since God views self righteous as filthy rags, the spirits of such seekers is untouched. Dead.  Alienated.  Without God.

Those whose souls imitate salvation are diversified.  Dynamic personalities   sway and move the emotions of others.  Their fruit—like TD Jakes for example—is to move the emotions of the soul.  The problem is that the faith of the hearers stands in the influence or wisdom of people like TD, and not in the power of God.  Intellectuals uses schemes to reach men and bring them to God, some preaching hell and damnation to frighten people to God, others using heaven, prosperity, gospelfests, social fellowship, networking  etc.

The outcome is that people are attracted to the fake Jesus, and not of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. What happens is a dangerous thing, so dangerous, that I will have to address it in more detail Part III. Suffice it to say for now, that people who are deceived into believing that they got born again, STILL have a dead spirit.  When dead, the spirit is susceptible to the evil side of the spirit world where psychic power is mistaken for the gifts of the Holy Ghost. Consequently, unsaved people are speaking in tongues, laying hands on others, imparting demons into vulnerable people.  Also, when people with dead spirits pray to the Father in the name of His Son, the one who answers their prayers is the imposter, the Fake Jesus.

Can a person whose spirit has been quickened STILL allow his or her soul to dominate?  Most decidedly YES. These are those who have a sensual relationship with Jesus.  When they speak of “being in His presence,” they are not satisfied unless they can feel the presence of God continually upon their flesh, and almost bi-polar in the spirit, they experience loads of ups and downs akin to spiritual mood swings.  They need to be taught how to walk by faith and not by sight or feeling.  Although the Holy Spirit dwells in their spirits, they often allow the soul to predominate because they do not understand the spirit life and the actions of the human spirit in co-action with God.

The outcome is that people are attracted to the fake Jesus, and not of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. What happens is a dangerous thing, so dangerous, that I will have to address it in more detail Part III. Suffice it to say for now, that people who are deceived into believing that they got born again, STILL have a dead spirit.  When dead, the spirit is susceptible to the evil side of the spirit world where psychic power is mistaken for the gifts of the Holy Ghost. Consequently, unsaved people are speaking in tongues, laying hands on others, imparting demons into vulnerable people.  Also, when people with dead spirits pray to the Father in the name of His Son, the one who answers their prayers is the imposter, the Fake Jesus.

Can a person whose spirit has been quickened STILL allow his or her soul to dominate?  Most decidedly YES. These are those who have a sensual relationship with Jesus.  When they speak of “being in His presence,” they are not satisfied unless they can feel the presence of God continually upon their flesh, and almost bi-polar in the spirit, they experience loads of ups and downs akin to spiritual mood swings.  They need to be taught how to walk by faith and not by sight or feeling.  Although the Holy Spirit dwells in their spirits, they often allow the soul to predominate because they do not understand the spirit life and the actions of the human spirit in co-action with God.

rat-raceBy Pam Sheppard

I find that the easiest people for me  to work with in regards to  rational, commonsense conversations concerning   the evils within the institutional church  and the fact that their own local  church is not immune from Satanic deception, is when someone contacts me who is in torment, and who also is suffering from  the delusion that they are born again.  Does not the bible declare that  “God did not give us a spirit of fear and of torment, but He gave us a sound mind.” So if your mind is not sound and you are in torment, it becomes clear and logical to ask the question,  “How could I  possibly be   born again?

Furthermore, if you’ve been in a local church for several years , and the leadership  still has not recognized your problems, nor have they helped you with them,  it becomes a lot easier to ask yourself “how could  God be  in there?” When a churchgoer starts to think outside his or her religious box, the result is that  he or she is free to  also to take note of  how many people in his  local  church are patients in  the mental health system or the substance abuse system with all kinds of strange health and medical problems, yet  healing and deliverance is consistently preached.   Finally,  when you are free in your mind to  consider that  the pastor’s family is not delivered, aren’t these apparent contradictions signs that God is not there?

I find it  best to reason  with the deceived, rather than use  the bible as a weapon to   “bang, bang, bang, bang” folk over their heads.  People need to be encouraged to operate with a sound mind so as to come to their own conclusions.  When a sound mind is delivered from the bondage of passivity, churchgoers will pose their own questions like   ” how is this happening , and why  is that not happening?”Church folk quickly pick up the lingo, and will go about declaring  “I’m blessed! I’m blessed, I’ve got this, I’ve got that,  so  I’m blessed!” And most of the time, they either really don’t believe that; or they are in serious  bondage to  a delusion. And so, when I hear such a declaration, I enquire  “what does it mean to be blessed? ”  I will do a church folk thing and ask “how does the bible define the nature of being blessed?”  For example, in  Psalm 1. “Blessed is the man (or woman) that walks not in the counsel of the ungodly.” And then, I share with them that what their church is preaching is ungodly counsel. As the most important example of ungodly counsel, you have been taught that you can accept God.  The truth is that if you are to be born again, God has already chosen YOU and not the other way around.

 Then Psalm 1 continues with not  walking  in the counsel of the ungodly, or standeth in the way of sinners. Then I would ask the question,  “Can you  tell the difference between the folk in your local church  and  sinners by  the way they look, the way they operate, the way they talk, the places that they go? this is a subject for yet another post.

“Or sitteth in the seat of the scornful.” One of the things I get the churchgoer to notice   is that the devil loves to mock the church and people who present themselves as the pillars of the church. For example, with Benny Hinn, they haven’t been able to find anybody of all those people that he has waved his hands at, or prayed for, or declared healed. Among all those thousands upon thousands of people.  the last I heard is that there is no  proven record that even ONE really got healed.

So I think its important to ask church folk who come our way this important question.   “What is the I. C. really doing for you? Why do you say you’re blessed? Are you really? Is there any fear and torment operating in you or in your family? Are you in captivity to the devil? How can you be in captivity to the devil and you go to church every time the doors are open? Why are you suffering with this or that and you’re a faithful and committed churchgoer?” These are some of the kinds of questions that people will be offended by but they will ponder when the dust clears. . “Do you hear from God? Are your prayers being answered? Tell me some of the prophecies that have been said over you. Have they come to pass?”

When I was in the IC as a pastor, the devil was talking to me constantly.  I thought I was hearing from God.  He would make me promises in dreams that he KNEW would never come to pass. His motive was to cause me to weaken in faith and to distrust God.  Once my eyes were opened to the truth, I rarely hear from the enemy in this manner.  Once his tricks were exposed, he did exactly what the Apostle Paul wrote that he would do.  I resisted him and he fled from me.

So if you are constantly hearing things or receiving visions and you believe it’s the Lord, you need to check yourself by trying the spirits.  The devil was talking to me  just about every day, and every day I  thought it was God. His pattern was to  reveal 3 things about my future. When two things came to pass, I was duped into thinking the third and most important thing would transpire, BUT IT did not.

So what kind of blessing is that? To be mocked is NOT A BLESSING. 

So be bold and sincere enough to ask a deceived churchgoer this question.  “Are you being mocked as you sit there on that pew? ? Is the devil using sickness, disease, depression, substance abuse, pornography, to mock you?”

Well if he can mock you this way, without you figuring out the deception, and if you’ve been over to that church all this time, and you STILL  don’t see it, then perhaps you ain’t saved either, and God is not there.”

What stirred your own intellect that caused YOU to receive the truth and become  undeceived?

If the game is still being played, then why are you STILL stuck on stupid?

God is Not a Religious Spirit: It’s Time To Detox!

15 Wednesday Mar 2017

Posted by in addiction, altered states ASC, born again, carnal Christians, deception

≈ 1 Comment

One of the main purposes of the book “the Church of the End-time Zombies: A Guide To Religious Detox” is to prepare YOU to stand alone as the author did for 8 of the 11 years she has been out of organized religion. Once Pam Sheppard started the online Christian fellowship called RESCUE, she now has supportive friends from several American states and others from South Africa, Dubai, India, Antigua, Finland and Canada. A prolific writer, Pam’s books are really an outgrowth of her main passion: deliverance counseling and pastoring. So this book is a labor of love to all the people around the world that Pam would love to personally pastor, particularly those who have been damaged and deceived by religion as peddled by “the religious.”

Since she is without the resources and capability to personally pastor the millions who are in dire need, she is using this book to coach those who will one day have to stand alone as she did. So as a labor of love, Pam has jam-packed almost 300 pages with loads of truths to prepare you for the evil day. It was a book written a century ago that turned Pam’s life upside down and served as the catalyst to open her eyes to comprehend just how deeply the enemy’s infiltration into the institutional church had personally hindered her walk in the spirit. “War on the Saints” set her free from being a Christian zombie for 25 years.

So this her 7th book is motivated by her democratic belief in the free will of the individual to be un-deluded in this Laodicean age of deception where “Satan has deceived the entire world.” For those who have an ear to hear and an eye to see, this eye-opening book will take you on the narrow road to meet the true and real Jesus Christ of Nazareth for yourself, without the influence or the mediation of the blind controlling and leading the blind. This book will pull you out of your religious ditch and cause you to stand on solid, good ground that will prepare you to “really be born again.” In fact, You will be able to clarify for yourself what has kept you deceived and what you need to know to address your own vulnerabilities and triumph over them.

In her 6 earlier books, Pam established and presented a framework to unravel religious deception which she elaborates on and enhances in “the Church of the End-time Zombies.” Nothing is withheld that would be useful to you but one subject, demonic soul-ties, the subject of its own book. This book is conversational in its language style as Pam personally coaches you from each page.

Then there are those of you who do not have to stand alone, as RESCUE still has the capability to receive your membership. To know more about RESCUE, watch these videos.

Don’t forget to get your coaching book to help you stand alone.

Christian Mysticism and Accepting Christ by Pam Sheppard

Here is the testimony of a non churchgoer, who believes he became born again on his first church visit to a charismatic church:

Ethan’s Testimony

I would like to explain my conversion experience.I was using meth at the time and demons were tormenting me. I had been going through all I can explain it as a initiation to an endtime cult  and I had  submitted myself to becoming a member of the organization.  I was taken into the desert. I was shown at this place altars where human bones were burned to different facets of this cult. However on the Rock was written the word Jesus saves.

It was if I was at the crossroads of a decision right then. I decided in myself then that I would seek Jesus but I hid it in my heart so as not to alert those who were with me. On the return trip large pillars of smoke began to rise from the ground in the desert and I became fearful. The cult had already condemned me as what they called a spy and had sentenced me to death.

I prayed to God that if I could just come and say I was sorry for what I had done by submitting myself to this cult and apologize for my sin that I would come back and accept the consequences of my action. I asked one of the cult members who was driving to drop me off at a local church which it would seem that they had no choice but to accept my decision.

so I went to church.  In the church I went in and was taken by some of the disciples to a room where they had me orally confess my sin. I did not want to go back but was willing to keep my word. After my confession of these things I sat through a service in which the preacher basically preached about my situation directly at me.

After the service I went up to the front and asked God for forgiveness and to just say that I was sorry for what I did. I did not expect to live through the night and I was ready to face the consequences of my sin. At this time the men surrounded me. And laid their hands on me and many were speaking in tongues. but one was speaking plain English. At this time,  a felt a surge of electricity go through my innermost being as one of them proclaimed I baptize you in the Holy Ghost. There was a instant presence upon me.

Then one of them handed me a bible on the way out and as I touched the bible I felt a fire like surge go through my hand and into my spirit. On the way out I was ready to go back and face my death but a member of the Church told me that God did not want me to return and invited me to stay with him. The next morning as I awoke the doorway to the spirit realm that was opened was closed.

I went to church the next day and as the man preached he said not to take the devil on by myself. . I testify that the spirit within me is the Holy Spirit. While I am obedient and faithful to Him he leads me and I bear peace and the fruits of the Spirit are evident. I have been under the influence of demons and the Holy Spirit and they are polar opposites. The Holy Ghost is forgiving gentle and takes away the desires of the flesh as described in the bible. The demon spirits bring confusion, fear, self loathing, perversion etc.There is no way to confuse the two. While I understand now the origin of tongues and the deceptions in the church is it not possible that God dealt with me on a individual level in this situation. i am sure that I was born again but I think I have followed church doctrine after my conversion in which it seems the Lord has slowly been revealing the truth to me. I have went through many churches including Mormonism, Pentecostalism, Charismatic etc. but I was not comfortable in anyone of them. Is it possible that God allowed me to go through these things to build me up to receive truth. Ultimately I was lead to RESCUE through this process. I was not born again by saying a prayer but when I came to God with sincere sorrow and acceptance that I deserved everything that was coming to me is when I was born again and I cannot deny the power of the Holy Ghost manifest in me.

My Assessment

This is an example of Christian Mysticism at its finest because it ignores the essential components of the gospel of Jesus Christ and makes the Holy Spirit sensual.  The Lord Jesus Christ is not at the center of this so called conversion as there is no mention of the cross and true repentance  and nothing about the resurrection of the Lord.  What I perceive is a man concerned about his sin out of fear.  it begins with demons and it ends with demons, who play their own spiritual trickery and deception in a staged enactment  of good cop, bad cop.

Ethan jumped out of an witchcraft pot into a frying pan of Christian mysticism.

“How Does The Holy Spirit Work?” by Pam Sheppard

Posted by in born again, false conversions, growth and maturity, Holy Spirit, religion

“The only honest answer after 37 years being led by Him is to say “I do not know.”

All I can say is that he is just like how The Lord described Him. He is like the wind. You can’t really see the wind, but you see it’s effects. He is neither wild, boastful or drunk as He is displayed by charismatics. His main purpose is to exalt Christ and to conform us into the Lord’s image. He does that first by causing us to be born again. The Spirit uses a uniquely personal approach, first of all by reproving and convicting us—causing us to repent by making the cross real and personal in our lives, dropping faith into us to believe on the Lord’s resurrection. Every testimony of rebirth is different but all of the elements of His work are the same. If they are not ALL there, then the person needs to consider that he or she had a false conversion.

Once we are born again, He then teaches and guides us in ways that when we look up, we realize He was there by what he has left behind. For example, He speaks through me yet I am completely unaware of it. I noticed His work with two RESCUE members in phone sessions yesterday. With one member, I made a post, not even knowing how he would be affected. With another, I read some material a month ago that provided answers as to why she is not yet completely free in spite of all demons being cast out. How did I know what to say? How did I recall out of my memory information that I have never written about or discussed before? How was I able to ask this person questions that brought forth the information that coincided with something I read that applies to her situation?

My answer is “I don’t know. Must have been the Holy Ghost.”

Those who would suggest to you that He is an “IT” —an energy force that causes them to babble, have chills, get their teeth filled, sprinkle gold dust all over the place, fall out in a drunken, spiritual stupor, at their beck and call to do whatever they want, are in some deep trouble. Why? Because they are allowing the devil to use them to mock the Holy Ghost. Besides blasphemy, mocking Him is the worst thing in the world anybody could do.”

Here is an excerpt from Pam’s book “The New Idolatry”

“Without a worshiper’s understanding of the cross and the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ, the true father God allows Satan to receive prayers made in Jesus’ name. Consequently, prayer and worship has been imperceptibly commandeered by the fake fallen angel, who calls himself, “Jesus.” A devilish religious invasion into the doctrines and practices of the organized church is the worst form of the new idolatry, with spiritually blind, yet faithful Christian churchgoers in communion with a table of devils. More on this crucial subject in Chapter 9.”

All I got to say is WOW! So true! This is how the institutional church is treating their own. I find it interesting how Jesus specifically made reference to the “18 years.” Many are not helped because the ones ministering are very likely, in most cases, NOT TRULY CONVERTED. So, the ones who are truly tormented are not given the attention they need. I am sure glad to no longer be a part of such deception and that I am not accursed, since I no longer sit among them to receive everything that is NOT the GOSPEL. What a compelling video!

“Detoxing From The Supernatural” by Pam Sheppard

“My life had been supernatural since 1974.

It seems I got through life for decades without being bored due to my daily dreams and supernatural experiences. If I gave an account of a particular happening, people would have to ask me “was that a dream or did that REALLY happen? ”

Once I left the occult, the nature of the supernatural changed in the IC. I still had the dreams but while in the IC, I became hooked on what my destiny would be, well before I heard the messages of destiny preachers like TD Jakes.

So how did I detox?

It is quite simple. I just accepted the truth. Once I did, the dreams practically stopped all together.

A part of the process involves living in the here and now and not in some far off destiny. I reclaimed both my Will power and my commonsense. The word PALEEZE became a well used word in my vocabulary. I am a skeptic who walks by faith and trusts in God but I don’t expect to hear from God until He is ready to take me a step higher on my spiritual ladder. I don’t ask for anything supernatural. I leave it up to Him. What He wants me to know, He will share in due season.

it would seem that I would be bored without the supernatural to lean on. Not really. I enjoy the peace I have a lot more than the stress that comes from supernatural experiences. I actually lean more on God now than before. Sometimes you end up trusting more in a sign or a wonder than you trust in God himself. I don’t need to see Him, I don’t beg for a closer walk with Him.

I just BE!!!

After all, the biggest supernatural thing that ever happened to me, I did not seek? God just SHOWED UP!”

“Learning The Hard Way” by Pam Sheppard

“I had to learn the hard way all my life because I have been on the trail of the pioneer or the maverick. I had no examples and no teachers other than the Holy Ghost. So I had to learn predominately by making mistakes without any human help.

One of the mistakes I made when I first got born again has to do with the supernatural. I had been seeing into the future, healing and operating in the realm of the strangely miraculous for three years prior to being born again. So I assumed that since Jesus did the same, than what I was used to must be from Him also.

It wasn’t!

And it took 25 years for me to find that out!!!!

Consequently, I fully understand what it means to be a new WINESKIN. All other spiritual experiences must be left behind.

How do YOU learn? Can you learn from the mistakes of others or do you have to grab the bull by the horn and make your own mistakes?”

“On Becoming Deception-Proof” by Pam Sheppard

21 Sunday Jun 2015

“Just because a person is born again does not make them “deception proof.”

The Lord would not have warned His disciples to “take heed and be not deceived” if there was no danger that they COULd be deceived. It does not matter how many things you are or were deceived about. For 25 years, I was deceived about a few things in comparison to what other churchgoers were deceived about. Yet the Holy Spirit did not release me from the deception until He was ready to. He simply stepped in when He chose the time to be right and started unravelling things. What I remain cautious about is this. Just because I am undeceived NOW, does not mean that it is impossible for me to be deceived again. For me to think otherwise would be both pride and arrogance and I do not want God to resist me.

So what is deception?

Deception has to do with thoughts in the mind. Simply put, we believe a lie or a half truth. The worst of it is the assumptions. if you start off with even one little wrong assumption, everything else falls like dominos.

As I am reading some of the works of the RESCUE look alike leader, I am watching how a person can start out with truth and how the enemy can use the truth they have received and lead them into a lie. What happens is that the enemy takes advantage of our misconception of truth. He uses the weaknesses of our personalities to lead us into believing what suits us best.

This realization is humbling me quite a bit. I believe that once we are given truth, we have to seek God in prayer to help us not to misunderstand truth for our conception of truth may cause us to err.

So my question is “how do we make ourselves fool-proofed to deception?”

I think we can all answer this from experience. just examined how we got deceived, what was it about us that caused us to be open to the deception, and how did you come out of it?”

Angels on Assignment: Paul’s Thorn

“Paul’s thorn was a fallen angel and not a sickness or infirmity as some in the IC teaches. That is an expression similar to a pain in the ass.

The “thorn” was a fallen angel that caused Paul to be shipwrecked, bitten by a snake, imprisoned, stoned and left for dead, in peril from folk, etc. All in an effort to hinder Paul’s ministry. yet, because of God”s grace, Paul’s ministry has continued for 21 centuries because God”s grace was sufficient. The words reflects that God allowed the demon to continue because He did not want Paul to get puffed up concerning the supernatural power he walked in.

I have a fallen angel assigned to me. His image came out on a photo taken of me on 10/25/81. It was the day I preached my trial sermon and entered ministry.

Does every Christian have a fallen angel assigned to him or her? I don’t know. I suspect that assignments are based upon how dangerous one is to the enemy”s kingdom.

When you consider what I am really called to do, you will understand why Satan assigned one to me.

any questions?”

The Carnal Christian: Is There Such a Thing?

Posted by in black church, born again, carnal Christians, salvation, sin

≈ Leave a comment

 According to the institutional church, particularly Charismatics, Baptists, and other denominations where sin is prevalent among the membership, these folk have an explanation. The explanation is that carnal Christians are saved. They love the Lord but since they are carnal, or worldly, they are justified but not sanctified. they have accepted Jesus as Savior but have not submitted themselves to Him as Lord.

This perspective also contends that carnal Christians can remain so for the rest of their lives. Even though throughout a lifetime of faithful church attendance and service, it is believed that carnal Christians will certainly get into heaven but so as by fire, or by the skin of their teeth.

I have excellent recall of the choir in the church where I began as a member in 1979. These folk were faithful, always in church. some of them were heavy tithers. I recall that they were also the most demonstrative worshipers, shouting, crying, falling slain, testifying of the Lord’s goodness, leaping up in the Holy Dance, etc.

Yet, the elders habitually sinned, particularly fornication. Their daughters were constantly getting pregnant, proudly wearing their choir robes with their bellies sticking out for all to see, with no husbands in sight. The choir pianist was a gay drug user, beloved of the entire church. He died in his 40’s, never having changed his lifestyle.

Regularly, unwed mothers held baby showers in the church, like there was nothing wrong with this sort of behavior. I understand that nothing has changed among them.—in fact a tolerance of sin has so increased, that it goes more unnoticed today than it did 40 years ago. simply put, no change in character or in their values.

The explanation is that they love The Lord but that they are simply carnal Christians.

In our private blog, RESCUE members had some interesting things to say about this subject:

Member #1:

 I have been around these type of people the majority of my life. Growing up, I was raised in a Baptist church, where basically people just do certain things to claim they are sorry for their sin and want to be saved. Then, after they are so called, “saved,” they try to justify their sin by using works of the flesh to try to keep from sinning. But they can’t do it, so they make excuses for their sin, and say, “Well, since I am saved, I am under grace, so God will forgive me as a “christian,” for doing this sinful thing. Then, they live their lives as if they are in so many trials and tribulations, and God is supposed to do everything for them. Not once do they even consider that God is not sitting at the throne waiting to give them their every need and desire because their motivation for trying to change is “getting into heaven.” These people live their lives one way in front of certain people, and behind closed doors live another way. They are the worst sinners I know! lol I used to always wonder why people were saying they were christians, but their lives did not reflect a love for living a holy life. Honestly, I used to laugh at them, because I knew it was fake. How can you claim to love God in one breath, and act like the devil in another? Yet, the minute somebody calls you on it, you say, “God knows my heart.” PULEEEZZE!!! Yeah, he knows your heart alright! He knows that it is wicked! They came up for every excuse in the book. These type of people would always focus everything on the Prodigal Son parable, implying that you can leave God and then come back to him and still be saved. Hmmm…..

Member #2

Yes, I was one of those carnal Christians, but realized that this is wrong. Almost everyone I know is either a carnal Christian or they claim that their sins are not serious ones. So, I’ve seen either total acceptance of sin, or the condemnation and hyper critical judging of it. The greed, the politics, the discrimination, and the exclusion of others due to the fact that these others sin differently, is hypocrisy. I knew I wasn’t right, and found out why, but who knows how many are out there that do not know, and will never know the Truth. I am just glad that God has been showing me the Truth, and pulled me out of that nonsense. Now, I know I am not born again. With that knowledge it explains why I’ve not been able to overcome the flesh or sin on my own. It is impossible to do. When I am born again, I know the slate will be wiped clean and I will have the Holy Spirit to help me overcome the flesh and sin.

Member #3

I was carnal and did my best to hide it behind a religious mask in fear of judgement. I always felt very guilty inside and wondered why I could never break free. I would see others who didn’t exactly drink or smoke or engage in sexual sin but they instead were controlling and abusive to a very sinful degree which was quite acceptable. It was my constant carnality that finally helped me realize I wasn’t saved. My carnality was drinking, smoking and depression. Had my carnality been religiosity or jezebelliousness (lol) I would still be in her! No matter how hard I tried I just couldn’t keep up with them. I relapsed into drinking after close to 4 years again to ease the pressure of a very controlling Holiness church…I can trace a lot of problems occurring after going to that church including a botched suicide attempt. This is where I seen the image of sananda etched on a pew. I had seen an image of him before even reading Pams book. That’s why immediately I knew Pam was speaking the truth and was like this huge revelation. I didn’t want to accept that I was not immediately unsaved, but the truth and proof was there,,,,,,there are no carnal Christians those who are truly born again. I am sure sin will come for those born again but to be in that same sin for 6 years straight is a strong clue of a false conversion.

The Dilemma of Change

Wendys picture

Consider the Institutional Church.  In  this  very  hour,  Her  problems are so deeply entrenched within the overall religious system that it would need a total renovation from inside out.  I tried to do so myself, but it didn’t work.

  I started a  small, non-denominational church in 1996 , while  I was  still under the authority of the Denomination called AMEZ. I preached an excellent word and I was a faithful and true pastor.  My problem was that I WAS STILL IN THE SYSTEM, TRYING TO POUR NEW WINE INTO OLD SKINS. I looked around at the phonies in my congregation and I said to myself “what up wit DIS?”
I tried new things but they could not escape the system and neither could I.  The Laodicean lukewarmness could not be changed.    For example, I stopped  a passive  Wednesday night bible study where I did  all the work and the people just sat lethargically in front of me.  I taught four bible studies a week, two in the morning and two at  night.   Even  those  who  faithfully  attended  each bible study did so  merely  out of ritual and  I started requiring each member  to  do an independent study based upon the message that they heard the previous  Sunday morning.  I asked them to  prepare what they had learned and  “tell  ME  about  it”.   Congregants  were  assigned to prepare questions based upon what they did not understand in the teaching. To say the least, the response of the members was  sickeningly lukewarm. After trial and much error,  it  finally became clear to me  that no one really wanted to actually study the word of God for themselves.  Their intention was simply to be found in church. No one prepared  anything.  In  fact,  they  appeared  confused and annoyed  and  by  their  utter  passivity,  simply  did  not even try the assignment because they were too used to being spoon-fed. Undoubtedly,  they would have bible study no other way.
This is the reality of trying to change the religious system from inside Her.  You will end up with even more apostasy like the Emergent Church. Change without the Holy Ghost is utter chaos.  Church leaders will not change their traditional practices.  The sinner’s prayer, the invitation to Christian discipleship, the Holy Communion and all the craziness around it will continue.  Let us not forget the witchcraft  practices of charismatics.  Even when church  appears to be working, a close examination will find the same endemic problems from church to church, pastor to pastor, member to member.  The foundation is basically the same and that foundation is not the true Son of God. The foundation is actually the organization itself.
The church system will not change because it cannot change.  As the wine skins are old,  God is not pouring in new wine.
The wineskins example reminds me of the worldly premise.  How can you expect real change when you keep repeating old behaviors. Yesterday, a woman told me in a phone session that she prayed for 30 years that her two sons would be saved and it did not happen.  Hmmmmm.  Perhaps her son’s are not chosen for salvation or could it be that praying for someone’s salvation is USELESS?  I prayed for 25 years that I would receive an interpretation of my tongues or sent an interpreter.  It never happened, needless to say. Hmmmmm. It finally dawned on me once I became undeceived.  My tongues are not from God and that is why my prayer was not answered.
Think about this.  What are you doing over and over again in your spiritual walk,  while  you continue to expect  different results? Who remains in your life, doing the same things, yet you still have expectations that “a change is gonna come, by and by?”
