How I Overcame a False Conversion

To talk to you about what RESCUE has done and is doing for me, I have to speak about where I came from.  I’m not talking about my heritage per se, but my religious background.  We all have our stories and our journeys, but one thing rung true: God is the one who saves, not man.  God chooses when and under what circumstance to call people unto himself, man can do nothing to affect being born again.

It is common to hear of one growing up in church.  This was me.  Until my older years I “backslid” (these are in quotations because I considered if one can really slide back from God) and was doing almost everything a sinner would do.  I returned to the church system through a group called “Discipleship Group” which met weekly on Thursdays.  The purpose was for the pastor to disciple us, guide us in the way of truth.  One evening I was emotional and spoke to the pastor about what I was going through.  He decided to pray for me, and I prayed after him.  I remember telling God that I was sorry for the sins that I was doing and asking him to forgive me and come into my heart.  The next day I felt better, freer, it was a different kind of feeling.  I broke up with my live-in fiancée and just felt better.

People were proud of me for the conversion, and soon after I slid easily into different ministries prayer offering monthly, children’s church, choir, Friday meetings, Wednesday prayer meetings – everything that had to do with church activity, I was there.  However, like a poorly constructed house, my foundation was not solid.  I grew fruitless.  Actually, I grew fruit, but this fruit was of the prince of this world.  I knew this out of the things I felt against others in the church, I was jealous, angry, envious, very prideful, impatient, selfish all the sins of the flesh.  I had a soul tie with another in the church and it was a terrible thing to break, very painful for both.  I still attended church, still had communion because I thought I was “ok” with God and God was “ok” with me.  That was pride. Friendships ended, and relationships broke.  However, I still maintained that I was “born again” because in truth, all of the works I did, things I knew of the bible things I stopped doing in flesh were reasons why I was born again.  Although I could quote scripture to justify certain things or discussions, when one looked really close you could tell the fruit on the tree was worldly, and slowly others were beginning to see the fruit of the world in me – but only a few.

I met Pam through a friend of mine.  At the time of meeting Pam (or shortly thereafter) I left the organized church system.  The first or second meeting Pam went through the very essentials of salvation: Repentance, Rebirth and Resurrection.  I did not fully understand repentance and resurrection.  In fact, I gave very basic, textbook responses to repentance and rebirth, but when it came to resurrection, I had no real clue.  Pam knew that I had not been truly born again of God’s Holy Spirit, but I was afraid to accept that.  I was still very religious.  I still believed and held on to my working for salvation.

I know now that religiosity is not just the act of attending church buildings.  Some are there now that are truly born again and God would reveal himself to them to leave. It is almost like belief system that one has.  During the time with Pam, I was very much religious although having left the organized church the church (religiosity) was ingrained in me.  Religiosity was my belief system, although disguising it in the form of “godliness”.  But God knew that I was not of his flock.  During the time of officially leaving the organized church, I have had several false rebirths, where demons would either give Pam a feeling that my salvation was near and in one instance, she felt to speak in tongues.  In another instance demons would give me tingling sensations and good feelings, which I attributed to being born again.  But even the tingling feelings and sensations I came to understand are not of God.  On one occasion, I held a telephone session and toward the end of the session Pam simply asked me to call on the name of Jesus Christ.  But I found that I could not open my mouth to say with all my heart that Jesus Christ is Lord.  That was surprising to me, as I never would have thought much about religious demons or spirits would prevent a person from a simple act.  Of course, Pam spoke right to the demon with authority of Jesus Christ of Nazareth and commanded it out.

It took almost two years being in contact with Pam before God would save me.  During the two years I went through anguish, my flesh wanted to be born again – but wanted it for the wrong reasons.  I would cry out in anguish to be born again, but God did not hear me.

During the first year with Pam, I had a dream that stood out completely from everything else.  In the dream my surroundings was pitch black.  Not just in colour but in thickness also.  However, I could see me clearly.  I was alone and calling out to God, but God was not answering me.  He was not hearing me, yet I was calling and calling.  For the next few months I woke up every morning and went to bed every night with this heavy load on my shoulders – sin.  No matter what I did or said, I could not shake this load.  I went through many emotions, angry at God, angry at myself, angry at my friends/family.  I briefly went through a stage where I said well if I am a sinner then may as well be happy in my sin.  But I was not happy at all.  I was more miserable, and those “happy” times of things I did were just temporary and when those moments were over the load on my shoulders.  The kind of happy I needed was not a temporary thing.

Throughout this time Pam and I kept in contact, I was in counseling with her every month.  She was firm and direct, not the soft and pliable personality that I was used to.  But I realized over time that Pam was who I needed.  Someone who stood firm in the faith of Jesus Christ of Nazareth who was called of God to do what she does, and ready to rebuke and speak truth to things as they were.  Soon everything that I held on to for dear life fell off.

What I came to understand is that repentance is not turning away from the sins that I did, because let’s face it even people who aren’t born again can feel “sorry” for hurting someone and would turn away from doing that again.  So going back to the salvation experience I held on to and that Pastor and I praying, my belief then was that the types and amounts of sins that I considered sinful against God, was what I confessed to God.  Through my journey, I understood that sin was placed on me – those things that I did were symptoms of my sinful state.  I did try scrub myself clean by forcing myself to be emotional and cry and call out for God or vow to “do the right thing” but He knew better, and did not respond to those fleshly attempts.

What I worshipped before was another spirit, another Jesus.  Jesus said that we worship Him in Spirit and in Truth.  How could I have worshipped God before being unsaved and in the flesh?  Something else was receiving my praises and giving me good feelings, but it was not God.

Around Easter 2012, just before the holidays I was at work and felt a tingly feeling on my arms and neck and heard this song I used to sing while in the church called “God is an Awesome God”.  At first I wanted to praise and say Yes, I am saved!  But when the tingles continued I remembered what Pam taught, that those fleshly feelings are not of God.  So I refused to give in.  Some of you will think I was too presumptuous, that’s okay I don’t believe that God would save you through tingly feelings and a song.  The main thing that I needed was true repentance of godly sorrow an understanding and belief in the resurrection that Jesus Christ of Nazareth was in flesh like you and I, and died in flesh, and rose from death three days later still in flesh.  That can only happen by the power of God!  Yes, I know some happen these days that try to mock Jesus’ resurrection, but the power of God changed Jesus’ body after he ascended into heaven – a Glorified body that He will never die again!  He is the first to have a glorified body, and we will get those too when he return.  I had to understand rebirth, by the Holy Spirit that God puts into you.

On April 15, 2012 while at home doing homework, I began to feel upset.  Upset at the devil.  He deceived me into following him.  I followed him and worshipped “another spirit”, a fake Jesus calling that entity “lord”.  Deep down in my core I refused to worship the fake Jesus any longer.  I remember crying out to God in a sorrow that I had not felt before, thanking Him for Jesus Christ who died for this blotch that had been “me”.  Sin.  He died that even though I was following the fake Jesus, I the captive could be set free and be alive in Jesus Christ of Nazareth.  I knew that I knew of a different faith a saving faith, that God raised this Man, Jesus Christ from dead in flesh like I am in flesh and only because of this can I have life, and I knew that I knew that I knew that He lives and sits beside the Father.  He came to set the captives free.  I was captive and He came to set me free!!

I did not think often at why God chose that time to save me.  But in writing this post I now realize that: Salvation does not belong to man.  It belongs to God.  He chooses when or how or under what circumstance.  No amount of my crying out in flesh anguish or begging could budge what God had planned to show me.  This is the same for religious acts, no amount of serving in church or cleansing the outer body could affect being born again.  This is a “God” thing, though His Son Jesus Christ of Nazareth.   Since being born again, I’ve been in an online group called RESCUE.  RESCUE is a place that I could go to and speak about issues I was going through or things I didn’t understand and importantly learn the wiles and strategies of the enemy.  This group is not rigid and cold or religious, on the contrary it is warm, loving and open.  Recently, I realized that this group has been showing me how to be open to trusting and loving others in the Faith.  The walk in Truth is really never meant to be a stand-alone journey, Christ Jesus taught his disciples to really love one another with the love of God.  In the same way we strive to walk in truth, to love – and sometimes love means to correct and rebuke in Christ – and to keep ourselves until the day of Jesus Christ’s return.  RESCUE is a place of truth, and freedom.

Thank you Pam for the Truth you bring, for your love and strength in Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

Without the Resurrection, Preaching Is Powerless

I preached sermon after sermon from a denominational pulpit for 25 years. For 10 years as a travelling evangelist, I preached an average of 30 sermons a year. However the 15 years as a pastor, I preached at least 720 sermons a year. Consider also that I watched others sermonize for as much as 20 times a year for 20 years.

Consequently, I have seen the work and met the souls up front and personal. Yet sad to say, I can only remember how the human presentation of the unfathomable victory and power of Cavalry and the Lord’s empty tomb has blurred and even watered down the gospel message to such an extent, that it has spiritually thrown multitudes off the track to a solid and steadfast conversion and rebirth. In fact, when I look back in reflexion, I am horrified by the disastrous confusion produced by ALL of us preaching every conceivably human experience other than Jesus Christ of Nazareth crucified and raised from the dead.

Early in my preaching days, the Lord spoke to me in a dream and said ever so kindly, “Pam, don’t forget to call my name in your sermon on Sunday morning.” I could have been embarrassed but instead, I was deeply convicted.

I never forgot to call His name yet when I preached the resurrection, it seemed like everyone, including other ministers, were in a state of total religious blindness!!!!

As a seasoned preacher, I realize today that the problem with behind the pulpit sermonizing is the mind of the preacher. The enemy has done a masterful job in calling preachers whose minds are unclear about what being raised from the dead means. For as the serpent beguiled Eve, the mind behind the pulpit in this hour is corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.

It is a fearfully blasphemous thing to hinder the Holy Ghost from reaching those whom the Lord called and chose for Himself before the worlds were framed.

Woe be to all who scatter His flock by not preaching in every single sermon, the power of the Lord’s resurrection to raise the dead spirits into eternal life.

You can’t preach what you do not understand. If you do not understand the Lord’s resurrection, you need to watch the video above.

Moving Forward By Losing Baggage

20 Wednesday Jun 2012

, , , ,

In 1979, I was sent to the Institutional Church because of the urgency of 3 dreams that compelled me to find   a particular pastor.  In the book, “Come Out of Her, God’s People,” I describe the events of that particular time.

“I preached my first sermon with such fire and conviction that even my enemies in that church voted for me to be licensed.  They believed that this was the Lord’s thing and they did not want to mess with me.  Even though I was treated like an unloved step child for the next 25 years, my skill at preaching made room for me, no matter how uncomfortable the listener. A few hearers were bold enough to sit and do crossword puzzles right in my face, while others sat with bland faces, pretending that they were not convicted, but they were. I’d come out of the pulpit and stand at the aisles of the un-attentive—bible in hand,— preaching powerfully  through their resistance.  In the early days, some would not come to church if they knew in advance that I was the preacher of the hour. However, my skill caused those who did not like me personally to love the way I preached. These were those who were eager to have me prick their hearts. pg.70”

Consequently, when I left the Institutional Church in 2004, I was carrying a lot of baggage–particularly in the area of religious doctrine and various  practices. Yet the thing I loved the most was preaching.

 When I entered the IC in 1979, I did not know what a sermon was.  When I witnessed my first sermonic performance by my first pastor, Rev. Lester, all I could do was sit there on that pew and cry.  Once I entered ministry a few years later, I was required to preach a sermon.  I said to myself, “Sermon?  What in the world is that?”

Actually, the first sermon I preached was at night.  I preached it in a dream.  In fact, I awakened from sleep, “sermonizing”.  Since then, I have uttered  at least 2000 sermons in various pulpits. I went from long outlines, to short ones on index cards hidden in the bible, , to notes on little pieces of paper, to simply opening the bible and submitting myself to the flow of the text and what I believed at the time was the inspiration of the Holy Ghost.

Then one day—-the Monday  after my 25th anniversary of preaching–October 25, 2006, the Lord spoke.   On Sunday, I had  preached a sermon called “What Do You Have to Burn.” The irony is that when I preached “What Do You Have to Burn,” I did not have the slightest idea that what I had to burn was “preaching.” For those who have the time to listen, click the title link to hear my last sermon.

So as I sat before the Lord on Monday, “I heard Him speak into my spirit, “Preaching is not building 3 point  messages from isolated texts and creating a sermon.  Sermonizing or homiletics is not of Me.  It is manmade.”

 Immediately I knew that anything spiritual that is manmade is religious and that anything religious has a form of godliness that is without power to bear genuine spiritual fruit. I also had a great deal of experience with people who heard a sermon that they they could not remember shortly thereafter.  I may have been deceived but not blind. Clearly,  the one who got the most out of my sermons was ME!

That was all the Lord needed to say.

It is important to state that He did not ask me to stop preaching, nor did He say that sermonizing is of the devil. Yet I could read between His lines.   I began to  recall how uncomfortable I always was sitting in pulpits.  Then I remembered various  images of my colleagues who seemed to be “taken over” by a force that I  always suspected  was not the Holy Ghost.

   Instantly—-cold turkey—-I dropped the baggage of “sermonizing” and I have not looked back. It was not difficult.  Once the Lord revealed His heart, my desire to preach immediately left me.

  Do I utter today?  Yes, but I am very careful in how I use the scriptures when I teach, making sure that I remain in accord with the text within its original context.  However, if a pastor was to invite me to his or her church to speak, I would decline.  I do not step foot in churches.

 To look back is TO GO BACK. Anyway,  All I would say to the Harlot is “Come Out of Her, God’s People.”

Among those who have left the IC,  there are many of you  who are still carrying a lot of religious baggage and you need to be de-programmed.  I can help with that so call 518-477-5759.

I Was Set Up to Be A Signs and Wonders Seeker

12 Tuesday Jun 2012

 I started out for 33 years of life an atheist.  Once I had a ‘Damascus Road” type of experience with the Lord, I was sold out for Him.  And it was two years—1979–before I attended any church.  I went because I had 3 consecutive dreams of a local pastor, and all 3 dreams urged me to find this man, the late Rev. Lester.  (not his real name.) Not once in more than 25 years did I ever consider that it was NOT God who sent me those dreams.  I didn’t find out until AFTER I had finished my 4th book, “the Fake Jesus:Fallen Angels Among Us.”  How did I find out?  The Lord spoke to me and  quietly  said, “I did not send you those 3 dreams that sent you to that church.”  Simple.

Why did He wait so long to tell me this?

Well, I never asked Him.  I kinda “knew” without asking.  I needed to know the depth of perversion and depravity the organized church system actually is “from inside.”  You might say, “I was a spy.” I was never really a part of the system because the demons in it recognized that I was a spy before I actually knew it myself.  The Lord allowed a messenger of Satan to give me 3 dreams and several confirming signs that I was supposed to be there.  I was a church person for 25 years, in ministry about two years after I  first arrived.  I was in a denomination where several churches in a region are “connected.”  So I got to know about 200 ministers, about 10 percent of them as close regional associates.

Well, I knew it was depraved from the beginning.  My first pastor was a closet homosexual who also practiced a Caribbean form of witchcraft called “obeah.” He was one of the first to die of AIDS in the early 80’s.  Most of the ministerial elders that I had to submit my ministry to were depraved.  Thieves, drug abusers, fornicators, homosexuals, child abusers, you name it, undercover and sometimes openly, they did it.

I stayed as long as I did because the religious spirit assigned to me played  a convincing game to prove that  God had me in the system to cause the system to repent.  So I was on my knees, sobbing, wailing and travailing for 25 years.  When things only got worst, commonsense should have told me, “Hey Pam, Don’t you “get it?” God is not answering your prayers in this matter. Why can’t you ‘figure it out?’ If God has not answered your prayers for repentance for 25 years, perhaps it is because “the time of repentance is over.  It just ain’t goin to happen, Gurl!!! Get up off your knees!”

I was pretty comfortable in the denomination in 2003.  I had started my own church and I kept my self separated from the religious politics, and the Bishop did not particularly care WHAT I was doing.  He treated me like I didn’t exist, and that worked well for me.  Then one day, the Lord spoke to me in a dream.  He showed me that “it was time to go.” He said “but let them PUT you out.”  Since I was not in any kind of trouble with the upper echelon, it seemed implausible that they would put me out.  Well 9 months from the dream, my name was removed from the denominations rolls.

Once out, I devoted myself to my online ministry which had begun in 2002 and to the church that I had founded in 1996. From 2004-2007, I waited for the Lord to send me to a different denomination, with my eyes on Full Gospel, non denominational groups.  It didn’t happen.  Then in 2007,  the Holy Ghost spoke again.  He compared the organized church to an inner city condemned building.  In short, He said “I’ve judged it already and I am no longer there.”

I said to myself “this COULD be the devil.” It was too incredulous for me to believe that the Holy Ghost was not in the church.  I was in a state of shock.   So I tried the spirits through the study of church history for one year.  After that year, I knew I had heard from the Holy Ghost.  He is NOT there.

Since God is not there, no point in ME being there either!

 The details of my  story are in the book, “Come Out of Her, God’s People.”  It is an eye opener that should be a part of your library. It is an “ah ha” kind of book.  It explains a lot about the organized church, its ministers and its members as well as “it plagues.” Also if you want to discuss this, your comments are welcome.

 If you already know I speak the truth, you are invited to become a member of my online ministry. Once you register.  I will either  to mentor, train you or both, call 518-477-5759.

When You Come Out of the Institutional Church, Don’t Look Back!

24 Thursday May 2012

My personal testimony of how I came to leave  the church is in the first chapters of “Come Out of Her, God’s People”. in the ebook  www.lulu.com/content/10430823 and the paperback, www.lulu.com/content/7285131.

 In a nutshell, the Holy Spirit will inform you when it is time for you to leave church.  In fact, if it were not for Him, I would still be there.  When the Holy Spirit led me out of church, I was pastoring a work that I had founded myself.  So it had never crossed my mind to completely leave the church. For a minister of the gospel to leave church  after 25 years of faithful service sounded like a preposterous idea to me–absolutely inconceivable.  I was settled and comfortable in the denomination, in spite of the fact that I had never really been embraced with open arms. I had the best of both worlds: spiritual covering from a well-respected denomination that  left me to my own devices. So I had almost complete independence to bring forth pentecostal, word of faith teachings in a denominational setting.

So what happened?  First of all, I had a dream. A very clear, significant dream where the Lord actually spoke to me.  I wanted to believe it was the devil because I didn’t like what I heard and saw in the spirit.  I was called by name. the Spirit said “Pam, I cannot use you in this place. You are a light hidden under a bed.  You MUST leave.  But let them PUT you out!”

Put ME out?  This MUST be the devil, I thought to myself.  They can’t put me out.  I have been a faithful servant in this denomination for 25 years.!!!!

Well, I did not have long to wait. I was at the Y, doing my  afternoon lap swim  when my pregnant daughter came waddling in and screaming “they are after you, Ma! The denomination is investigating you.” I got out  of the pool, sat on its side and listened to my daughter’s emotional report.  She had run into the proverbial grapevine.  Yet this was not gossip.  It was true. The dream was confirmed in less than a week. The denomination was about to PUT ME OUT.

It took 9 months.  I had the dream in September 2003 and the denomination removed my name from its rolls in June 2004.It was June 25th, 2004. I had a dream that morning. I saw my head under the chopping block. I was beheaded. It came to me that I have the same ministry as John the Baptist: Preach repentance and prepare the way for the Lords SECOND coming.

Anyway, I still had my church that I had founded,  The denomination  had no authority or power to close it.  So I continued leading my church, expecting the Lord to send me to another church affiliation. Various sects and word of faith churches made some offers. However,  it was quite clear to me that all they wanted was my money and my attendance at their various meetings and conferences to obtain MORE money through conference fees and donations taxed my church.  We were small and poor. I could not rob my own congregation to send their  hard-earned dollars to an aloof, uncaring mega preacher, just to pay to sit on the front row of some conference.

So I waited 3 years. This time my sign  was more powerful than a dream.  I was wide awake.  I heard a voice in my head ask me this question, “Pam. would you put curtains up at the windows of a condemned building?”  I looked around to see if someone was there,  but I was alone.  I answered in my head “no.’  The voice continued.He talked for what seemed a long time.  Then He said “Pam. You are planning to travel around the world to conduct deliverance training seminars in any church that will open its doors to you.” I answered, “Yes.!”  By that time, I had been to a church in Lawrenceville Ga and one in Bermuda.

The voice then said “Well. Pam. conducting seminars in any church is like putting up curtains at the windows of a condemned building, I have already judged HER.”

After watching my video series entitled “False Conversions,” certainly you were startled, perhaps even horrified.  I understand.Clearly the adversary has had a religion, recognized by the Lord in His message to te church at Smyrna, called “the synagogue of Satan. Little did we realize that the profession of godliness without the inward witness of the new birth is in itself an aspect of Satan’s religion. under the delegated authority of the fallen angels Maitreya, Sananda and Mother Mary for the Catholics. Te Lord refers to “the deep things of Satan” in His word to the church at Thyatira.  Seducing spirits with doctrines of devils do not fail to mention the cross and the resurrection, yet they do so deliberately without understanding so as to eliminate their power.In a false conversion, the enemy hs taken the symbols of his defeat and used them against his conquerors where multitudes are unknowingly under  the sway and in the power of Satanic religion

So to unravel a false conversion, the first step is to disavow either Maitreya, Sananda or Mother Mary.  You may need some spiritual warfare help with that, so call me at 518-477-5759.

In this post, lets  take a look at point 2—-one must pass through the gateway of the cross. Since no one can lift himself out of the horrible pit of sin, it is impossible without the ministry of the Holy Ghost. Here is where faith and trust in God comes to te rescue. Once te captive is made aware of is or er need  and desires te true Jesus of the cross, the Spirit will unveil the Prince of Glory, hanging upon a tree and convict the captive of sin. He will also give te captive a measure of faith to truly believe and te ability to experience peace and assurance through the Lord’s blood sed on te cross for the forgiveness of is sin and the washing and cleansing of te newly created spirit. Once the soul learns the meaning of the cross in te deliverance from the bondage of sin, then the Holy Ghost will bring you to the Risen Christ as you—as a  former captive take your  seat in heavenly places.

How A Religious Spirit Sets Up a Demonic Soul Tie

By Wenona Russ

I can remember one time I was parked in a parking lot, needing a ‘WORD FROM THE LORD.’

Funny thing was it was regarding whether  or not I should stay at a church I was attending (that’s when I was still part of the organized church system).  I had just gotten off work and was bone tired and I had to preach that night.

I heard a voice so clear…”That is your church home.  I have a work for you to do there….”  Then this voice went onto tell me “…and the pastor is your husband…”

I won’t lie to you:  I did a Sarah when ‘God’ said that…LOL.  Yes, I laughed!  I was like ‘there is NO way that that man is my husband!  He is 15 years my junior…my oldest son is almost his age!’  Then some other things were said about how we were going to build ministry together, blah, blah, blah….

I got a LOT of confirmation on that ‘word’ from several different sources.  We would go to churches and people would prophesy marriage to us both. MANY ‘prophetesses’ and ‘prophets’ prophelied about how we were going to take the city.  The co-pastor of the church even came to me to ‘counsel’ me on several occasions to prep me for marriage to this pastor (who also happened to be her son!)

That word I got in that parking lot led me to stay with that church for a total of 5 years.  And we didn’t end up marrying:  come to find out he was on the DL…and had an incurable STD, all while STILL pastoring that ‘church.’

When that lying spirit of Baal saw that I was not going to fall for that, he sent a ( false) prophetess to this same church to prophelie to an armorbearer and the pastor -a ‘prophecy’ that set off a chain of events that would eventually lead to a church scandal and the pastor marrying a 19-year old…they are still ‘married’ and have a son.  And he is still in his lifestyle, and the young girl plays along as the dutiful first lady of the church…

And the prophetess of Baal that lied to those two has a church of her own now, too.

Let me tell you something:  there is a false spirit out there that knows the desires of our hearts.  It knows what we crave and desire the most.  No secret:  most of us go crying on the altar or blabbing on Facebook how bad we want a mate, or a ministry, or a car or a house.  So the devil heard your prayers.  So now all he got to do is send a prophet of Baal to lie to you, tell you what you want.  And then we get fooled into thinking these prophets of Baal are really from God because what they said does come true.

That is not the only prerequisite of knowing if someone is a TRUE prophet of God or not.

A TRUE prophet of God is not only going to be able to tell the future-fortune tellers can do that.  A TRUE prophet is going to utter what THUS SAITH THE LORD and THAT ONLY.  A TRUE prophet of God is going to be soaked in OBEDIENCE TO GOD.

When we get hooked on needing confirmation of words from God and seeking after a sign, we are treading on DANGEROUS territory.  VERY DANGEROUS.  Because the enemy mimics EVERYTHING God does.   The enemy can do signs, perform miracles, prophesy, speak in tongues, dance.

So if your diet of the Word of God is more of ‘I-gotta-see-a-sign-I-gotta-see-a-move-I-need-a-confirmation,’ then you are subject to be deceived by the devil.

STOP SEEKING CONFIRMATIONS!!!!

The Word says MY SHEEP KNOW MY VOICE AND A STRANGER THEY WILL NOT FOLLOW in John 10.

Learn to crack open the Word of God, study, get in the Presence of God and learn to Hear from God for YOURSELF.

Needing confirmations is a sign of YOUR UNBELIEF and LACK OF FAITH.  AND LACK OF RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD.  If you are not hearing the voice of God, then you are NOT HIS SHEEP.

The people in the Old Testament stayed in rebellion and disobedience, which is why they could never hear God for themselves.  So that’s why you always saw folks asking other folks to tell them what God said.  And the Holy Ghost was not yet given, so they had to rely on others…

But God promised there would come a time when He would write His Commandments on the tables of OUR HEARTS (Jeremiah 31:33).

That way when we sin, the law that is NOT DONE AWAY WITH, but WRITTEN IN OUR HEARTS, would convict us of sin…and-if one is submissive to the work of the Holy Ghost in their lives-will repent of sin.

An unrepentant heart can NEVER hear from God.

I repeat:  AN UNREPENTANT HEART CAN NEVER HEAR FROM GOD!

The only thing that that person will hear is God telling him to repent.  And if he waits TOO long to repent, the Word says God will give him over to a reprobate mind.

So I said all that to say this one thing:  if you need a word from God, make sure there is no unrepentant sin in your life or that you’re NOT walking in pride, disobedience or rebellion.  Because once you do, that’s when a deceiving spirit will come in and tell you THUS SAITH THE LORD…

And MOST OF THE TIME-IF NOT ALL THE TIME-those words and any accompanying ‘confirmations’ will ALL BE A LIE from the PIT OF HELL!!!!  SENT TO DESTROY YOU!!!!!

HE THAT HATH AN EAR LET HIM HEAR WHAT THE SPIRIT OF GOD IS SAYING….

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Are you hungry and thirsty for the WORD OF GOD, but long to learn to study for yourself?

Do you long to no longer be tainted by religion when hearing from God?  Do you want to make sure the Words you are hearing are not filtered through religious sifters?

Click here for resources that teach YOU how to hear CLEARLY from God for yourself! For example, the book “Faces of the Religious Demon” by Pamela Sheppard shed light on what happened to me and countless others.  Here is a short quote:

“I don’t believe that there is any area more conducive to demonic deception than in the area of love and marriage, particularly in the lives of women called to ministry or to female leaders within the laity. The most popular demonic strategy is to present individuals of either the same or the opposite sex in either a seductive or intriguing form, with the object of arousing various dormant thoughts in the captive, which he or she does not realize exist within.  The deceived believer will become smitten with thoughts of a particular person, as masked for the purposes of prayer, of increased fellowship, and where the opposite sex is concerned, for ministry and communion in the things of God. When the soul tie is romantic in nature, the religious demon or fallen angel will work in the realm of the passions and the affections of the captive to believe that the party upon whom his or her affections is fixed is also equally affected and mutually enamored.  This is accompanied with a counterfeit “love” or drawing to the partner, with a painful craving for his or her company which almost masters the captive.” (Faces of the Religious Demon)

PROTESTANT ERRORS

(An Excerpt from the Fake Jesus: Fallen Angels Among Us)

 PROTESTANTISM          

Protestants have contended that only the Catholic Church is a part of the Harlot because of the deification of Mary, the priesthood and the worship of saints. They believe that these practices hinder the salvation of Catholics.  Yet, what of Protestantism?    Are souls being saved among the denominations and the non-denominations of the Protestant faith today?  I am finding that even the best churches are hazardous, primarily because subtle deception is actually held in place by the sincerity and the commitment of its leadership. To be sincerely wrong can be almost as deadly as being obviously deceived or purposefully deceptive.

From my own vantage point from a deliverance perspective,I have been put in contact with several    demonized Catholics AND Protestants around the country and even the world. As such, there is one major sign that suggests that the church age may be coming to a close.  I am willing to bet that some of you are guessing that the most outstanding sign of the demise of the Protestant church is either dying churches, sinning preachers, the prosperity gospel or even false prophets. These are certainly signs that “Satan has a seat”. But   the most outstanding sign  that Satan may be standing behind the pulpits is one of his cosmic beings,  Jesus Sananda Immanuel.

Consider this. The main reason why the church was commissioned in the first place was to preach a gospel that the Holy Spirit could use to draw the elect to the cross of  Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Yet for 200 years or more, the gospel has been tainted with an insidious error that no one seems to be able to correct and most ministers are totally unaware of it. In a nutshell, the main error is that the people are being taught worldwide   that “God will save them once they make   a decision to choose Jesus Christ of Nazareth.—ie.that the ability to be saved lies in man’s hands.” e-book www.lulu.com/content/12044954 soft cover www.lulu.com/content/8761420

Such a teaching borders on blasphemy because if man is saved by “accepting Jesus,” then the decision is a work of man and not a gift from Godaccording to grace, “lest any man should boast  and declare “I am saved because I ACCEPTED JESUS! Whether denominational or non-denominational, pentecostal or Charismatic, practically the entire Protestant church upholds the “free will” decision approach to salvation.

Do you yourself believe that you can or could be saved any time that YOU wanted to? Do you believe that you are NOW saved simply because you responded to an altar call and/ or you repeated a sinner’s prayer where you “asked Jesus to come into your heart?” If you can answer in the affirmative, then you have been deceived and therein, defiled! You are in jeopardy on judgment day when the Lord looks at you and declares,”I NEVER KNEW YOU!!”

             Alarmingly,what is being preached in practically ALL of the Protestant churches is that through a personal decision–the volition and choice of human will—the lost  can ACCEPT Christ to be saved. This is a tenet that has so strongly grieved the Holy Ghost, that it is reasonable to wonder if He has left Protestantism entirely. Started by a preacher called Charles Finney about 200 years ago, this foundational error has pervasively spread like yeast throughout every corner of the Protestant church. Even the most renowned evangelist of our time, Billy Graham has also preached the ” make a decision”doctrine of salvation to millions upon millions.

Moreover, the church practices of the invitation to Christian discipleship through an altar call and the repeating of “the sinner’s prayer” are the main   anchors that hold the foundation of the “free will method” in place in its attempt to convince the lost that they must be saved by “choosing Christ” before it is too late. Some will even preach the doctrine of hell as a scare tactic to browbeat a “decision for Christ.” The essential root of the problem is that when a person sits in church, in a huge stadium, watches a TV evangelist, or even “is led to Christ” by another professing Christian, the lost are being taught that they can ACCEPTJesus into their own hearts and salvation is automatically theirs for the asking.

Interestingly enough, no where in the word of God is it written that “we accept Christ into our hearts.” Paul wrote to the Romans that we”believe in our hearts that Christ was raised from the dead.” However, Paul did not write that we must “accept Jesus into our hearts.”When we are born again, Jesus does not “enter our hearts.” How can He enter our hearts when He is at the right hand of the Father??? This is why the Lord told His disciples that it was better for them that He went away so that the Holy Ghost would come. The Holy Ghost is that part of the godhead who enters our spirits, causing us to become “temples of God.” The heart and the spirit are two distinctively different entities in man. Similarly, like the words “rapture” and “purgatory”,the phrase “accept Jesus”is yet another religious euphemism, not backed up by scripture.

Furthermore, the message of “I accepted Christ” is so preposterous that it is an offense to the triune Godhead. We DO NOT ACCEPT CHRIST. NO ONE CAN BE SAVED UNLESS GOD HIMSELF HAS ALREADY MADE THE CHOICE!!!! The Father and the Son have already done the choosing or the electing before the beginning of recorded time. When the sinner actually hears the call, he simply responds. Even when a sinner cries out for Jesus, it may appear to be an act of his own free will, yet the Lord said that no man can come to Him unless the Father which sent Him draws them. (John 6:44)

Subsequently, even when a sinner begs the Lord for mercy to save him, he does so because he has been drawn to the cross by the Holy Ghost. Therefore, even our repentance is not human but godly. Godly sorrow is a repentance for sin that has been divinely given to the sinner to cause him to repent, to sorrow over the Lord’s sacrifice.At the cross, a sinner’s spirit is washed, cleansed and forgiven by the blood of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

It is important to state here that nothing stops God, not even the church.When the Lord is ready for the elect, He calls them. If they are sitting on a church pew, He can still reach them, regardless of what they have been listening to. The problem is that many of the elect who are in church believe that they are already saved but they are not. The Father plans to save them. Nevertheless, for the Holy Ghost to draw them to a genuine salvation experience, the strong man must be bound with the light of truth. In this instance, the “strong man” is the religious demon, aka,the Fake Jesus. Jesus Sananda Immanuel.

Grieving the Holy Spirit

09 Thursday Feb 2012

By Pam Sheppard

The Holy Ghost has been reduced to what charismatics, Pentecostals and word of faithers call “the anointing.”  To most of this crowd, the Holy Ghost is “an it” that causes them to have goosebumps as they fall out slain in the spirit, speak in a language that no one can understand, and “get drunk in the spirit.” However, He is so much more than that.

DO NOT GRIEVE THE HOLY GHOST!

As a Person and not “a feeling,” the Holy Ghost speaks, teaches, witnesses, guides, comforts, convicts, commands, helps, converts, imparts faith to believe, brings the fear of the Lord and imparts godly sorrow to help a sinner repent. He can be obeyed, lied to, resisted, grieved, quenched, quenched, insulted and blasphemed.  The work of the Holy Spirit on earth is similar to that of the Lord’s earthly ministry. As Jesus lived to lift up and glorify the Father, the Holy Spirit’s work centers on lifting up the Son of God, Jesus Christ of Nazareth.  The Father also glorifies the Son.  The Holy Ghost is the Spirit of Christ and the Spirit of the Father.  All three Persons are One.  As our Teacher of spiritual truths, the Holy Spirit will enlighten your mind with insights into the mind of Christ as He unlocks the spiritual doorways to the secret things of God.

Just as the Holy Ghost drove Jesus into the wilderness to do battle with the devil, He does the same with the elect of God.  The Holy Ghost not only wants you to know the godhead.  He wants you to know your enemy and so He will arrange your wilderness experience, tailor-made to what you need to find out.  He knows that it is crucial that you be not ignorant to demonic deception, for the demons have access to our very souls.

Therefore, it is imperative that we learn how to tell the difference between what is spiritual, what is demonic and what is soulish or carnal.  The Holy Ghost is the Helper and as such, He provides us with self-knowledge as long as we don’t grieve Him. Self knowledge equips us to be able to discern thoughts and feelings that are alien to our character and personality. Demons love to snare their prey with half-truths rather than with complete lies because a half truth can set a more believable trap. You say to yourself, if this is true, then THAT must be true, and then you are trapped.  This is the scheme that is the foundation of all false religions.  There is at least ONE truth about God in all of them, perhaps more.

Nevertheless, 99% of truth is no truth at all.   It is a lie.  The Holy Ghost is 100 percent truth and there are no lies in Him. 99% of truth is a setup from the devil. Since our human struggle with the evil side of the spirit world is a daily event, and since Jesus revealed that the Holy Ghost is 100 percent truth, we need to resist grieving Him.  For Jesus said that the Holy Ghost will reveal truth as to what is to come.  In the times in which we live, we are helpless without the Holy Ghost.

How do we grieve the Holy Ghost? Well, when we actually believe that WE lead people to Jesus Christ, we grieve the Holy Ghost.  All we do is preach and testify, as led by the Holy Ghost to do so.  The Holy Ghost does the rest.  He knows who will be saved from who will be damned.  He is the one who dispatches angels to set up our wilderness experiences that He will use to draw us to the cross.   He is the one who provides faith to believe on the Son of God and His bodily resurrection.  You might call the Holy Ghost “THE MINISTER OF SALVATION.” So He is certainly grieved when we take the credit for our own salvation when we boast “I ACCEPTED Jesus.”  He is more than grieved with this. He is angry.  Perhaps that is why religious demons have been allowed to enter those who have said “Jesus, come into my heart.”

  • When He is grieved, He is also quenched. A fire is quenched when dirt is thrown on it.  The organized church has thrown lots of dirt on the Holy Ghost and perhaps that is why He left Her.
  • The Holy Ghost  is also grieved when He is reduced to a flesh experience.  He is a Spirit.  We must worship God in spirit and in truth and not by a sensation on our flesh.  The Holy Ghost imparts the truth by which we worship God Almighty.
  • The Holy Ghost is grieved when professing Christians bypass the Son of God and seek the Father to be saved.  He is quite grieved with that.
  • The Holy Ghost is grieved by those who do not try the spirits to see if they be of Him.  He will let you be deceived until you do.

Resurrection life—the same power the Holy Ghost used to raise the Lord from the dead—will be evident when you experience revelation, power, and discernment under the guidance and instruction of the Holy Ghost.  Revelation is to receive God’s own personal  knowledge and wisdom about YOUR life.  Power is His supernatural ability applied to YOUR human frailty.  We cannot do without  the resurrection life of the Holy Ghost in times like these.

THE FAKE JESUS:Fallen Angels Among Us

It was this video clip that birthed the book “The Fake Jesus: Fallen Angels Among Us.  I’m not sure, but I suspect the year was 2006.  I had recently heard a voice say to me that the entire organized church was akin to a condemned. boarded up dwelling and that the Holy Ghost had vacated it. As a pastor for 25 years at the time,  I wa truly s hoping that the message I had received ws not from God.  So I decided to take a year and do some research. As I was about to begin by studying church history, when I watched this particular video.

At that point, I had never heard of Dr. Cindy Trimm so I watched the video without any preconceived perceptions of  her ministry.

When the clip reached the 2 minute and 42 second point, my book “the Fake Jesus” was conceived, for it was at that exact moment that I heard Dr. Trimm “declare,” I THANK YOU FATHER THAT THE SPIRIT OF THE ASHTAR HAS FALLEN UPON THE PEOPLE at the people were falling slain in the spirit like ocean waves across the entire building where the congregation was assembled.

Astar? That sounded familiar.  I first went to my bible and found Ashtoreth, an old testament idol. Once I googled the name “Astar,”  Google  corrected my spelling  to ASHTAR. Beyond a doubt,  I was in a state of shock.  For the door to aliens, ascended masters, and fallen angels imitating our Lord  flung wide open. All because of the 2:42 slide of this video.

This is only one manifestation of Ashtar. He also appears as an alien.

False Signs In Endtimes

Satan-jesus

Thirty eight years of my life have been filled with signs to “wonder” about, several of them occurring in dreams. Before I was saved, I was demonized by a spirit of divination. I used to dream as many as 10 dreams a night, remembering MOST of them. Several dreams contained predictions that actually came to pass. When I went into ministry in 1981, I had a loose-leaf “dream book” where I had journaled about 3,000 dreams. I’ll never forget the day that the Lord asked me to throw out the dream journal because “I was fit to be tied!”. I complained, “Lord, I have been maintaining this journal for years because I plan to write a book about dreams.” He responded: “Pam, you have some dreams that I sent to you in your journal, but most of your dreams are from the devil. Throw it away. I’ll give you other books to write.” I reluctantly put the dream book in an outside garbage and went back 3 times to retrieve it, asking myself “was that REALLY God?” Finally, I let the garbage truck take it. Thank God, I finally obeyed.

In 1985, I had a supernatural sign—a dream where a 7 foot,bald-headed, muscular being loudly and boldly declared, “I am an angel sent from God to show you your future ministry.”This “angel” showed me a huge residential Christian rehabilitation center for ex-offenders and recovering addicts. In the center of it was a huge chapel. The rehab center was so large that I couldn’t figure out if it was one piece of land with several cottages and buildings on its grounds, or if the blueprint consisted of several individual sites around the country.Since my secular background includes writing proposals and obtaining large government grants in human services, I asked, ” Do I write a grant?” The “angel” bellowed loudly,”NOOOO!!!! This is God’s project and He shall fund it.”

Very religious, pious sounding, right? Well, it took me 20 years to find out that this being was a demon sent by the fake Jesus to derail me and “set me up.”. The religious demon even poured into me the desire and the zeal to do this kind of work—a desire that I took for granted came from God. As one example out of many, I remember having a supernatural experience in the parking lot of a prison, with travail and groanings that knocked me to the ground. Periodically over the years, I spent hours on my face, weeping and travailing for the salvation of prisoners. I actually preached and taught in prison every week for 8 years. Nevertheless, once the spotlight of truth hit me in the face, –that I was NOT called by God to a prison/substance abuse ministry,—- the wisdom received was not at all painful. I just said to myself “oh well.. I’m in the Lord’s hands. He will guide my next steps.”

Instantly I understood how and why a religious demon had been successful at deceiving me on this and other significant issues for so long. Simply put, the Lord knew that the deception would be good for me since “I had been in training for 30 years.” The truth is that the best way to learn Satan’s strategies is to be deceived,and then to watch the Holy Ghost unveil and expose the deception.  It was necessary for me to go down the trail of deception myself, so that I could yell back to those behind me, ” Hey, yall, go back!!! You don’t need to follow this path, I’ve seen what is ahead so turn around and start again.”

I don’t blame the people the enemy sent into my life to derail me. They had no idea what was going on. They were just pawns in a demonic chess game invisibly and secretly played out with my ministerial life as the chessboard. So I take full responsibility for being duped by the fake Jesus because clearly, the Lord never assigned me to work in a substance abuse prison ministry. I DID NOT TRY THE SPIRITS TO SEE IF THEY WERE OF GOD. Due to my impatience to “get things rolling” in what I believed to be the Lord’s work, I actually put myself into the devil’s hands because it suited my own purposes to believe a lie. I STRONGLY DESIRED THE WORK TO BEGIN,NOT REALIZING THAT I WAS BEING REFINED AND CLEANSED THROUGH WHAT I ENDURED AND SUFFERED.

One day I looked up and the zeal for prison ministry and substance abuse counseling was completely gone from my spirit. Vanished. With the zeal gone, I immediately withdrew from prison ministry. Shortly thereafter, my spiritual eyes were opened to the whole truth. I had been hooked by an intricate, demonic setup. I now know the truth, and the truth has set me free to complete what God has REALLY chosen me to do. So what is my divine assignment?  My assignment is to train ministers for the return of the Lord.

So if you have been given a specific blueprint about your spiritual journey in the Lord–if you have been shown signs of who you will marry and such, if your plan has lots of details with confirming signs, you’d better stop, look, listen  and STAND STILL.

Its the devil!

My testimony is primarily told in “Come Out of Her God’s People: Don’t Receive Her Plagues.”

We do not have much time left to prepare for what is about to unfold!

If you have left the organized church, then perhaps I am called to train or mentor you. I can be reached at 518-477-5759 Ask for Pastor Pam

Setting Captives Free

Setting Captives Free

In the beginning of my work in deliverance counseling in 2002 , I was  shocked and horrified at the manifestations that emanated from professing Christians. To hear even tongue talkers be used by demons to roar, growl and shout blasphemies that include 4 letter words is so astounding, that it can be rather “disconcerting” to say the least.  What I have found is that religious demons are now dwelling in the human spirit of professing Christians, the place which is intended for the Holy Ghost. I have also learned   that these demons must be cast out first, before the Holy Ghost will enter.

This is a formidable task because religiosity has become “a high 
tower” in the lives of the lost who insist that they are saved. This high tower must be pulled down by truth, brick by brick. Simply put ,to reach a churchgoers  who believes that he is saved because he repeated a sinner’s prayer and accepted Jesus “into his heart” is like trying to put a camel through the eye of a needle. But as the Lord declared,”what is impossible for men is possible with God.”

 I marvel at what the Lord is doing. Compelling case studies are presented in “Faces of the Religious Demon.”

Grieved and quenched, it has been my experience that the Holy Ghost will not move either the called or the chosen by the “free will” method because the gospel has not been properly preached. Since faith comes by hearing the gospel, we need to understand “what the gospel is.” The gospel is plain and simple yet very rarely heard in what is commonly known as “a sermon.” In fact, most sermons heard in churches today are “not the gospel of Jesus Christ.”

They may be interesting, inspiring, enthusiastic, joyous, dramatic, charismatic and even life changing relative to coping with the natural challenges and circumstances of life. Yet, unless the gospel of the kingdom is preached in every sermon, the Holy Ghost will not draw anyone to the cross and without the cross, no one will be saved. You may cry, shout, jump up and even fall on your face yet without the complete truth, there will be no   fruit that leads to eternal life.

Here is the dilemma. If you believe that you are saved but you have had a false conversion, you will not be delivered.  Deliverance is based upon truth. As Jesus said, when we know and accept the truth, the truth will MAKE us free. The acceptance of truth will cause fallen angels to walk away from you and cause demons to come out of their hiding place within your soul. Captives will be set free and deliverance  will be made EASY!
