TOUCH NOT MINE ANOINTED |
Today if a survey was conducted to find out what are the
scriptures most quoted by Charismatic or Pentecostal
believers, it would definitely be Ps:105:15 and Mt 7:1:
''Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm''
and ''Judge not, that ye be not judged.''
The popularity of these two verses is indicative of the
radical turn taken by Pentecostalism and the Charismatic
movement shortly before the new millennium. Suddenly the
Churches of the Gospel of Signs and Wonders have embraced
an aggressive and offensive approach to the ever increasing
call for discernment in the Christian Community. These two
verses Ps:105:15 and Mt 7:1 have been used by Pentecostal
and Charismatic Prophets to rally their followers against
groups of Christians they call Heresy Hunters. Armed with
these two verses the Pentecostal and Charismatic believers
are called by their leaders to identify and wage
''relentless war'' against Christians that are said to be
possessed by ''fault finder demons''. According to these
prophets, Christians criticizing or questioning their
teachings are ''accusers of the Brethren'' who need to be
fought in ''most cruel battles''. Even though I am aware
of the danger that may result from investigating these
teachings, yet I felt lead to go to the Holy Scriptures
and search for the truth.
If we allow the menacing voices of these ''infallible''
doctors to control our judgment, even basic scriptures
that have been read over and over can easily be forgotten.
When night and day we are getting peppered with threatening
words of a new Gospel of hate and intimidation how can the
words of the good old Gospel of truth and love be still
remembered? When we continually listen on Television and
Radio that we should not judge the teachings of these so
called Lord's anointed Prophets, it became absolutely
impossible to remember these inspired words of the Apostle
Paul:
1 Corinthians 14:29 Let the prophets speak two or three,
and let the other judge. (KJV)
1 Corinthians 14: 29. And let the prophets speak by two or
three, and let the others discern. (American Standard)
I am pasting below the translation in the Strong Concordance
of the word 'diakrino' that was used in the original text of
1 Corinthians 14: 29:
diakrino
Pronounced dee-ak-ree'-no
to separate thoroughly, i.e. (literally and reflexively) to
withdraw from, or (by implication) oppose; figuratively, to
discriminate (by implication, decide), or (reflexively)
hesitate:
KJV--contend, make (to) differ(-ence), discern, doubt, judge,
be partial, stagger, waver.
Since we are called by revelation of the Holy Spirit to use
discernment and judge the words of the prophets, it is clear
that these men forbidding Christians to judge their teachings
are definitely not Prophets of God. Thanks to the great
wisdom and power inscribed in the Holy Scriptures, it is
given to all Christians the opportunity to discern that
these religious leaders speaking like a dragon and preaching
a gospel of destruction, delusion, deception and perdition
are beyond the shadow of a doubt the end time false Prophets.

Matthiew, the pentecostal movement is heavily infiltrated with
catholic spies that are really catholic but pretending to be
pentecostal; they take orders from the vatican, the seat of the coming
antichrist.
Jim Jones was a catholic spy, so was Kathryn Kuhlman and most probably
Benny Hinn, who took over her ministry after she died.
You can read about Jim Jones and Ms. Kuhlman being catholic spies and
about catholic infiltration into protestant churches in the magazine,

Galatians 2:4 And that because of false brethren unawares brought
in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ
Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage:
2 Corinthians 11:26 ... in perils among false brethren;
It seems to me, that the pentecostal preachers that try to use the
word of knowledge to say that someone in a particular area of the
church has a certain type of disease and he tells them to stand up or
come forward, - It seems to me that this is probably fake and it is a
technique used by fake catholic spy preachers. The person pretending
to be healed is probably a catholic spy that is in on the deception.
When the woman in scripture touched Jesus' garment, and she was
healed, He did not know who it was in the crowd that touched Him, and
he had to ask. Jesus did not use the word of knowledge the way these
fake preachers are pretending to do.
Luke 8:45 And Jesus said, Who touched me? When all denied, Peter and
they that were with him said, Master, the multitude throng thee and
press [thee], and sayest thou, Who touched me?
I suspect Pat Robertson, Jim Bakker, Jimmy Swaggart, Benny Hinn, Paul
and Jan Crouch, etc. of being catholic spies serving the vatican, the
seat of the coming antichrist.
Note: The Bakker and Swaggart scandals were probably fake to make
protestant churches look bad, the catholic controlled news media
pushing the story the way the vatican wanted it to go. The antichrist
system is already set up and waiting for the last pope to take the
throne.
The following quotes show just how far the churches of today have
strayed from the wisdom of their founding fathers.
Martin Luther
(1483-1546) (Lutheran)
"We here are of the conviction that the papacy is the seat of the true
and real Antichrist...personally I declare that I owe the Pope no
other obedience than that to Antichrist." (Aug. 18, 1520) Taken from
"The Prophetic Faith of Our Fathers," Vol. 2, pg. 121 by Froom.
John Calvin
(1509-1564) (Presbyterian)
"Some persons think us too severe and censorious when we call the
Roman pontiff Antichrist. But those who are of this opinion do not
consider that they bring the same charge of presumption against Paul
himself, after whom we speak and whose language we adopt...I shall
briefly show that (Paul's words in II Thess. 2) are not capable of any
other interpretation than that which applies them to the Papacy."
Taken from "Institutes" by John Calvin.
Cotton Mather
(1663-1728) (Congregational Theologian)
"The oracles of God foretold the rising of an Antichrist in the
Christian Church; and in the Pope of Rome, all the characteristics of
that Antichrist are so marvelously answered that if any who read the
Scriptures do not see it, there is a marvelous blindness upon them."
Taken from "The Fall of Babylon" by Cotton Mather in Froom's book "The
Prophetic Faith of Our Fathers," Vol. 3, pg. 113.
John Knox
(1505-1572) (Scotch Presbyterian)
Knox wrote to abolish "that tyranny which the pope himself has for so
many ages exercised over the church" and that the pope should be
recognized as "the very antichrist, and son of perdition, of whom Paul
speaks." Taken from "The Zurich Letters" pg. 199 by John Knox.
Thomas Cranmer
(1489-1556) (Anglican)
"Whereof it followeth Rome to be the seat of antichrist, and the pope
to be very antichrist himself. I could prove the same by many other
scriptures, old writers, and strong reasons." (Referring to prophecies
in Revelation and Daniel.) Taken from "Works" by Cranmer, Vol. 1, pp.
6-7.
John Wesley
(1703-1791) (Methodist)
Speaking of the Papacy he said, "He is in an emphatical sense, the Man
of Sin, as he increases all manner of sin above measure. And he is,
too, properly styled the Son of Perdition, as he has caused the death
of numberless multitudes, both of his opposers and followers...He it
is...that exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is
worshiped...claiming the highest power, and highest honor...claiming
the prerogatives which belong to God alone." Taken from "Antichrist
and His Ten Kingdoms" by John Wesley, pg. 110.
Roger William
(1603-1683) (First Baptist Pastor in America)
He spoke of the Pope as "the pretended Vicar of Christ on earth, who
sits as God over the Temple of God, exalting himself not only above
all that is called God, but over the souls and consciences of all his
vessals, yea over the Spirit of Christ, over the Holy Spirit, yea, and
God himself...speaking against the God of heaven, thinking to changed
times and laws: but he is the son of perdition (II Thess. 2)." Taken
from "The Prophetic Faith of Our Fathers" by Froom, Vol. 3, pg. 52.

On the web site of Morning Star Ministries Pastor Rick
Joyner confessed he was a member of the Secret Society
Kinghts of Malta. While reading Rick Joyner's testimony in an
attempt tounderstand his animosity toward those called Heresy
Hunters, I came across this interesting statement:
"Before I was knighted I thoroughly checked out the
OSJ to be sure that there were not secret vows or
rituals, which I am steadfastly against as I believe
that anything that has to be done in secret is of
darkness, and my resolution is to walk in the light."
Rick Joyner knows the history of the Knights of Malta also
called the Order of Saint John (OSJ), he wrote a book about
their exploits titled " Courage That Changed the World". So
before being knighted Rick Joyner knew perfectly well it is
recorded in History, how this secret Society the OSJ specially
targeted and persecuted Protestants. Through out the centuries,
Multitudes of Christians called Heretics were slaughtered by
those zealous and implacable Knights of the Order of Saint John.
Rick Joyner before taking the Oath of allegiance to this secret
Order, knew that the swords and spears of the Knights of Malta
were always covered with the innocent blood of Christian Martyrs.
On the web page that I pasted below, the extract of the Oath of
the Knights of Malta in the Congressional Record of the House of
Representatives dated February 15, 1913 does worth a thousand
historical books:
http://www.biblebelievers.org.au/jesuits.htm
If you are not an adult please stop reading right now because
I pasted below a portion of this recorded oath of the Knights
of Malta:
"I do further promise and declare that I will, when
opportunity presents, make and wage relentless war,
secretly and openly against all heretics, Protestants
and Masons, as I am directed to do to extirpate them
from the face of the whole earth; and that I will spare
neither age, sex, or condition, and that will hang, bum,
waste, boil, flay, strangle, and bury alive these
infamous heretics; rip up the stomachs and wombs of their
women, and crush their infants' heads against the walls
in order to annihilate their execrable race. That when
the same can not be done openly, I will secretly use the
poisonous cup, the strangulation cord, the steel of the
poniard, or the leaden bullet, regardless of the honor,
rank, dignity, or authority of the persons, whatever may
be their condition in life, either public or private, as
I at any time may be directed so to do by any agents of
the Pope or superior of the Brotherhood of the Holy Father
of the Society of Jesus."
I do not know the specifies of the actual oath that Rick Joyner
took when he joined the ranks of the Knights of Malta, I can only
quote the reasons he evoked in his testimonial:
"Great knights of the Spirit are now gathering, and are
likewise vowing to never retreat before the enemies of
the cross. They are taking their stand against the great
powers of darkness that even now seem to be covering the
earth, seeking to build their strongholds of deception
and corruption in every nation and culture. Brave
spiritual knights are gathering to take their stand
against these hordes from hell."
Even though Rick Joyner explained that he "knew there was a
coming great world conflict with Islamic extremists", and that
he "wanted the blessing of the Order of their courage and
resolve never to retreat before the enemies of the cross", in
his book THE HORDES OF HELL ARE MARCHING, in the visions he
claimed to have received from the Lord, guess who Rick Joyner
identified as the enemies of the cross:
"The most shocking part of this vision was that this
horde was not riding on horses, but on Christians!
Most of them were welldressed, respectable, and had the
appearance of being refined and educated. These were
Christians who had opened themselves to the powers of
darkness to such a degree that the enemy could use them
and they would think that they were being used by God."
For Rick Joyner this Crusader of the end times, the Enemies of
the Cross are innocent and respectable Christians reading their
Bibles and scrutinizing the teachings of his fellow Pentecostal
and Charismatic Ministers to the light of the holy scriptures.
Before waging relentless war against the new Heretics, Rick
Joyner wanted the blessings of the Order of the Knights of Malta
and also of one of the most powerful Arab Leaders:
"This was important for a significant prophetic/diplomatic
meeting with one of the most powerful Arab leaders in the
Middle East which would take place at a later date. This
was when I first realized how some of the knights of the
OSJ were being used for amazing spiritual-diplomatic
achievements that were in the interest of the kingdom of
God."
While Rick Joyner is preaching to Pentecostal and Charismatic
multitudes a manifesto of hatred against discerning Christians,
Paul Cain who is also a Knight of Malta was sent to apologize and
cry with Saddam Hussein, as it is revealed in the transcript of
the tape of Rick Joyner published by Paw Creek Ministries:
http://www.pawcreek.org/new%20world%20order.htm
http://www.pawcreek.org/newworldorder2.htm
In his book The Hordes of Hell are marching, Rick Joyner wrote the
Lord told him that he must now stand and fight, because there is
no longer any place to hide from the war against the enemies of
the cross, i.e. those Christians possessed by fault finder
demons. Rick Joyner also wrote that he was called by the Lord
to lead the fight against those Christians of the Hordes of Hell
who have in their hands arrows named "Accusations, Gossip,
Slander and Faultfinding". If you have a tender stomach please
skip the words of Rick Joyner that I pasted below:
"Even worse than the vomit from the vultures was a
repulsive slime that these demons were urinating and
defecating upon the Christians they rode. This slime was
the pride, selfish ambition, etc., that was the nature of
the division they were a part of. However, this slime made
the Christians feel so much better than the condemnation
that they easily believed that the demons were messengers
of God, and they actually thought this slime was the
anointing of the Holy Spirit."
After going through these old oaths of terrifying Military Orders
and reading the frightening and repugnant words of the Knight
Rick Joyner asking Christians to wage relentless wars against
other Christians, it was the following words pronounced during
these ordinations, as reported on this web site biblebelievers.org,
that definitely opened my eyes on the activities of the Charismatic
Popes in the Churches:
"You have been taught to insidiously plant the seeds of
jealousy and hatred between communities, provinces, states
that were at peace, and incite them to deeds of blood,
involving them in war with each other, and to create
revolutions and civil wars in countries that were
independent and prosperous, cultivating the arts and the
sciences and enjoying the blessings of peace."
Beware of the anointed followers of the chivalry Gospel who are
already patrolling the Christian Newsgroups relentlessly looking
for Christians they are calling accusers of the Brethren. You can
easily recognize the new Crusaders by their hateful posts
directed to Christians who they claim are possessed by fault
finder demons. To avoid trouble, it would be preferable that you
ignore their posts. If you have been buying books, cassettes or
videos from Ministries preaching the Gospel of the Crusaders look
carefully and you shall see that all their materials are stained
with the blood of Saints. If you are supporting these ministries,
now you are fully aware that your money is being used to organize
Crusades against future Martyrs of Christendom.

and His Ten Kingdoms" by John Wesley, pg. 110.
Roger William
(1603-1683) (First Baptist Pastor in America)
He spoke of the Pope as "the pretended Vicar of Christ on earth, who
sits as God over the Temple of God, exalting himself not only above
all that is called God, but over the souls and consciences of all his
vessals, yea over the Spirit of Christ, over the Holy Spirit, yea, and
God himself...speaking against the God of heaven, thinking to changed
times and laws: but he is the son of perdition (II Thess. 2)." Taken
from "The Prophetic Faith of Our Fathers" by Froom, Vol. 3, pg. 52.

Today if a survey was conducted to find out what are the
scriptures most quoted by Charismatic or Pentecostal
believers, it would definitely be Ps:105:15 and Mt 7:1:
''Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm''
and ''Judge not, that ye be not judged.''
The popularity of these two verses is indicative of the
radical turn taken by Pentecostalism and the Charismatic
movement shortly before the new millennium. Suddenly the
Churches of the Gospel of Signs and Wonders have embraced
an aggressive and offensive approach to the ever increasing
call for discernment in the Christian Community. These two
verses Ps:105:15 and Mt 7:1 have been used by Pentecostal
and Charismatic Prophets to rally their followers against
groups of Christians they call Heresy Hunters. Armed with
these two verses the Pentecostal and Charismatic believers
are called by their leaders to identify and wage
''relentless war'' against Christians that are said to be
possessed by ''fault finder demons''. According to these
prophets, Christians criticizing or questioning their
teachings are ''accusers of the Brethren'' who need to be
fought in ''most cruel battles''. Even though I am aware
of the danger that may result from investigating these
teachings, yet I felt lead to go to the Holy Scriptures
and search for the truth.
If we allow the menacing voices of these ''infallible''
doctors to control our judgment, even basic scriptures
that have been read over and over can easily be forgotten.
When night and day we are getting peppered with threatening
words of a new Gospel of hate and intimidation how can the
words of the good old Gospel of truth and love be still
remembered? When we continually listen on Television and
Radio that we should not judge the teachings of these so
called Lord's anointed Prophets, it became absolutely
impossible to remember these inspired words of the Apostle
Paul:
1 Corinthians 14:29 Let the prophets speak two or three,
and let the other judge. (KJV)
1 Corinthians 14: 29. And let the prophets speak by two or
three, and let the others discern. (American Standard)
I am pasting below the translation in the Strong Concordance
of the word 'diakrino' that was used in the original text of
1 Corinthians 14: 29:
diakrino
Pronounced dee-ak-ree'-no
to separate thoroughly, i.e. (literally and reflexively) to
withdraw from, or (by implication) oppose; figuratively, to
discriminate (by implication, decide), or (reflexively)
hesitate:
KJV--contend, make (to) differ(-ence), discern, doubt, judge,
be partial, stagger, waver.
Since we are called by revelation of the Holy Spirit to use
discernment and judge the words of the prophets, it is clear
that these men forbidding Christians to judge their teachings
are definitely not Prophets of God. Thanks to the great
wisdom and power inscribed in the Holy Scriptures, it is
given to all Christians the opportunity to discern that
these religious leaders speaking like a dragon and preaching
a gospel of destruction, delusion, deception and perdition
are beyond the shadow of a doubt the end time false Prophets.

B-I-G-O-T
Many influential Pentecostal and Charismatic Leaders have
been meticulously preparing a deadly ensnare for the
Christians who are exposing the scandalous practices of
these Churches. Rick Joyner of Morning Star Ministry is
one of the most radical advocates resolved to fight a
"great war" against Christian believers and Pastors who
are supposedly standing in his way:
"On February 23rd of this year I was shown for the third
time that the church was headed for a "a spiritual civil
war." I was first given an impression of this in 1988.
At the beginning of 1995 I saw it again in a dream,
which I wrote down as The Hordes Of Hell, Part I. On
February 23rd I was told that it was time to
straightforwardly warn the church, and to begin preparing
for this great war with the resolve to fight until there
was a complete victory. The definition of a complete
victory in this war would be the complete overthrow of
the Accuser of the Brethren's strongholds in the church."
Today Rick Joyner is not alone in calling discerning Christians
the accusers of the brethren, whole Pentecostal Congregations
have already learned from the Prophets of war this violent
manifesto of hatred. Francis Frangipane who serves on Joyner's
advisory board is another proponent of this campaign of
terrorization. He also compared to "demons" and "accusers of
the brethren" the discernment ministries within the churches.
In his book on taking the cities by spiritual warfare Francis
Frangipane wrote a whole chapter about the Christians he called
"fault-finders". According to Francis Frangipane these people
planted by Satan, are hindering the next move of God, he
consider them to be possessed by a "fault-finder demon":
"to mask the diabolical nature of its activity, the
fault-finder (demon) will often garb its criticism
in religious clothing. Under the pretence of protecting
sheep from a gnat-sized error in doctrine, it forces them
to swallow a camel-sized error of loveless correction".
With great disdain, the multi millionaires of the gospel Benny
Hinn and Paul Crouch fiercely refer to these "accusers of the
brethren" as "Heresy Hunters". United as one, Pentecostal
and Charismatic Ministers are continuously giving this austere
warning: to the "fault-finders" "Heresy Hunters": "TOUCH NOT
THE LORD'S ANOINTED". The incessant warning issued by these
fuming Ministers "JUDGE NOT LEST YE BE JUDGED" is still ignored
by the detested "accusers of the brethren". So far nothing
seems to deter the "fault-finders" from criticizing these so
called anointed men of God. Not even the menace of Law suits
that could initiate the highly paid Lawyers of the gospel
magnates, seems to discourage the "Heresy Hunters". More and
more the contested religious leaders are considering a drastic
solution to eradicate once and for all the fault finding curse
from the Churches. Among the numerous ring leaders calling for
an all out "Christian" Jihad against the "fault-finders", Rick
Joyner is openly threatening that his relentless followers will
forcefully fight the "accusers of the brethrens" in "the most
cruel battles":
"The accuser will arise from some of the most unexpected
places, and people. This will, in fact, be one of the most
cruel battles the church has ever faced. Like every civil
war, it will cause brother to turn against brother like
we may have never witnessed in the church before."
Determined to achieve the unity of the "Church" by force,
Rick Joyner and the Pentecostal War Lords are proclaiming they
are geared up to instigate a ferocious reprisal. Without
apprehension they openly declare they are on the verge of
implementing an apocalyptic Witch Hunt and inexorably reinstate
a new Inquisition of the Modern Era. They overtly swear that
nothing can stop them in pursuing their lethal artifice. They
are absolutely committed to go to the extreme in eliminating
any opposition in the midst of the Churches. With a
premeditated strategy of terror, they are resolute in achieving
their implacable goal. The gospel dictators have openly
confessed, they are simply awaiting an opportunity to
definitely get rid of "the accusers" who refuse to bow down
and worship their anointing of wonders:
"When we are shown impending negative events it is not
necessarily to prophesy them, but rather for the purpose
of thwarting the enemy's schemes. However, I do not
believe that this one can now be stopped, or that the Lord
wants it stopped. This battle must be fought. It is an
opportunity to drive the accuser out of the church, and
for the church then to come into a unity that would
otherwise be impossible."
Nowadays this Pentecostal extremism and Charismatic
radicalism are shockingly widespread in the inner sanctum of
the anointed Churches. Militancy and revolution have been the
most popular topics at the Pentecostal and Charismatic
conferences. From the "Take It by Force" conference in Phoenix
to the "Militant Church Conference" in Tulsa, this vociferous
exhortation has been repeated over and over: "PREPARE FOR WAR!
ROUSE THE WARRIORS!" The believers are not only indoctrinated
in the new gospel of elimination by all means of "the accusers
of the brethren", whole congregations have been receiving the
"Warrior Anointing" in anticipation to an upcoming offensive.
This anointing is also known as "the Sword Anointing". John
and Carol Arnott of the Toronto Christian Fellowship have been
promoting and dispensing this terrifying anointing. The
Pentecostal believers receiving the dreadful anointing roar,
and shout like a warrior. They grasp their hands above their
head, then in a slicing motion swing them up and down, right
to left as if they have been actually holding a sword, to
attack and kill the "enemy". Richard Kelly Hoskins wrote a
book entitled, Vigilantes Of Christendom, that can explain
the emergence of this drastic movement of anointed warriors.
Richard Kelly Hoskins wrote, "As the Kamikaze is to the
Japanese, As the Shiite is to Islam, As the Zionist is to
the Jew, So the Phineas priest is to Christendom." He also
claimed that the "Phineas Priesthood" are Christian guerillas
who will avenge Judeo-Christian traitors. Rick Joyner inspired
by the brutal creed of Hoskins stated:
"The dismantling of organizations and disbanding of some
works will be a positive and exhilarating experience for
the Lord's faithful servants . . . a great company of
prophets, teachers, pastors, and apostles will be raised
up with the spirit of Phineas . . ."
"To be distinguished from the 'stumbling blocks,' a great
company of prophets, teachers, pastors and apostles will
be raised up with the spirit of Phinehas. Just as the son
of Eleazar could not tolerate iniquity in the camp of the
Lord, this 'ministry of Phinehas' will save congregations,
and at times even whole nations from the plagues that will
be sweeping the earth. They will be moved by the jealousy
of the Lord for the purity of His people..."
"It was said of the Apostle Paul that he was turning the
world upside down; it will be said of the apostles soon
to be anointed that they have turned an upside down world
right side up. Nations will tremble at the mention of
their name..."
http://www.adl.org/backgrounders/an_phineas.html
Please read the verses upon which the new Priesthood of
Phinehas has been devised, and understand what exactly the
anointed warriors have been trained and instructed to do:
Num:25:7: And when Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of
Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose up from among the
congregation, and took a javelin in his hand;
8: And he went after the man of Israel into the tent, and
thrust both of them through, the man of Israel, and the
woman through her belly...
Kim Clementia declared on the Trinity Broadcast Network:
"We are going to kick some b---- in the new millennium."
Also he glady proclaimed, "We are going to stick spears
up the b---- of the Philistines."
http://bethuneinstitute.org/documents/killers.html
While these Pentecostal Warriors are feverishly preparing
to exterminate "the accusers of the brethren", ironically
it is still being preached in the Churches, it is antichrist
political figure who will kill the Christians refusing to
worship the beast! We need to urgently ask what could
possibly save, the true believers only armed with a Bible,
from this ferocious Charismatic army ready to destroy? The
Pharaohs of the gospel are extremely angry, they are very
worried by an eventual collapse of their financial Empires.
They could loose billions of dollars of revenue, if they
let "the accusers of the brethren" persuade the deceived
believers to come out of their Churches. These kings of
the gospel are willing to negotiate a compromise and make
alliance with any one willing to reject the true gospel of
Jesus Christ. Nevertheless they have orchestrated a new
theological revolution, to prevent the dangerous
"fault-finder demons" from propagating in the Churches. So
the Priests of Phinehas as a strike force have been
consecrated to eliminate the rebellious "Heresy Hunters".
Haunted by the eventuality of a massive exodus of followers
leaving their churches, the anointed Pharaohs even consider
Freedom of speech and biblical knowledge extremely
subversive. The order of Phinehas was created by the Rulers
of the Gospel, to police and maintain the necessary
stability for the survival of their financial Empires. The
new priests of Phineahas have been ordained to remove the
"stumbling blocks", this expression was used by Rick Joyner
in his book the Harvest to designate those who are resisting
the teachings of the Pentecostal and Charismatic Prophets.
http://www.cnn.com/SPECIALS/views/y/9804/pattillo.unholywar/#2
The fanatics of the order of Phinehas were not only
encouraged by unscrupulous Ministers to break the law, they
have been instructed that they are above any human laws.
According to the moguls of the Gospel, the Priests of Phinehas
have been chosen by God in an everlasting priesthood to rule
the world with a zealous revolution of terror. The adepts of
the new Gospel of war are mostly recruited among young
Christians, apparently the youngest are less hesitant in
receiving the license to commit violent acts in the name of
God. Michael Brown, president of the Brownsville Revival
School of Ministry in Pensacola, Florida wrote in his
publication Jesus Manifesto: A Call to Revolution: "There
is a generation out there that is ready to be radical, ready
to be crazy, ready to do anything, ready to break the rules".
The untouchable autocrats of the Gospel are not joking!
Believe it or not, every single Christian to escape the wrath
of their army of anointed warriors will soon have to make a
choice, either forsake the true Gospel of Jesus Christ for a
new religious world order, or endure the wrath of the Tyrants
of the Coalition of the Apostate Gospel.
Rv:14:13: And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me,
Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from
henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from
their labours; and their works do follow them.
Mt:10:26: Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing
covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not
be known.
27: What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light: and
what ye hear in the ear, that preach ye upon the housetops.
28: And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able
to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to
destroy both soul and body in hell.

The church is full of Satan's minions, those who call themselves
Christian but do the opposite from what Christ commanded, and always has
been such. If I were interested in destroying the church I would likely
start from within the church. Rick would have more success keeping Satan's
minions at bay by ignoring them. Giving them the time of day only encourages
them.
Francis Frangipane who serves on Joyner's

Don't we all know the habitual "fault-finders", our atheist trolls who
never find a solution to anything, only faults? LOL
According to Francis Frangipane these people

fault-finder (demon) will often garb its criticism

WRONG!!!! Fault finders NEVER even so much as suggest "corrections" of
any sort.

Yes. Quite often the fault-finders themselves are Satan's minions as
became clear in the Inquisition.
"The accuser will arise from some of the most unexpected
places, and people. This will, in fact, be one of the most
cruel battles the church has ever faced. Like every civil

Good idea to squash those who only find fault and never have a remedy
for any of the faults. Notice that when pressed for a solution to the
problems they list, Satan's atheist minions always and only suggest SILENCE,
i.e. -stop mentioning the name of Jesus. LOL By that you can tell who is
the Atheist Troll imposter immediately.

THE MINIONS OF SATAN
Jesus in John 8:44: Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your
father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in
the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he
speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
Mt:6:21: For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
Mt:12:34: O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things?
for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.
Mt:12:35: A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth
good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil
things.

Speaking In Tongues
George C. Clark, Sr. and John David Clark, Sr.
"I want all of you to speak in tongues." (Paul, in 1Cor.14:5)
If we believe Paul's words, then we must admit that there is such =
an experience as being empowered by God's holy Spirit to speak in a =
language which we have not learned. The Scriptures bear indisputable =
witness to the presence of this experience in the early church. =
Beginning in the second chapter of Acts and throughout the New Testament =
writings, there are references to this extraordinary blessing among both =
Jewish and Gentile believers.
A few years after the initial outpouring of the Spirit on the Jews =
at Pentecost, God began admitting Gentiles into the church by baptizing =
them with the holy Ghost. This grace, which Jewish believers did not =
expect to be shown to Gentiles, is recorded in Acts 10:45-46: "All the =
believing Jews who came with Peter were astonished because the gift of =
the holy Ghost was poured out on the Gentiles also; for they heard them =
speaking in tongues and praising God." Later, another group of Gentiles =
spoke in tongues when they received the Spirit: "And when Paul had laid =
his hands upon them, the holy Ghost came on them, and they spoke in =
tongues and prophesied" (Acts 19:6). These were not isolated events; on =
the contrary, the context in Acts 19 suggests that Paul was surprised =
that these believers had not already received the baptism of the Spirit. =
Further, in all his letters which speak of the subject, Paul speaks of =
this blessing as if it were a normal part of church life.=20
In reality, there is no church life without the language of the =
Spirit, for receiving the holy Spirit and speaking in tongues are =
indissolubly united as two parts of one experience in Christ. The moment =
one receives the holy Ghost, he is moved by the Spirit to speak in a =
language he has not learned. This is true in every case, as Jesus =
explained to Nicodemus (Jn.3:8). When all the evidence is rightly =
divided and justly weighed, it becomes clear that every person who =
receives the holy Ghost speaks in tongues when he receives it, and that =
if one has not spoken in tongues, then he has no basis on which to claim =
that he has received the Spirit of God.=20
The only way to receive the holy Ghost, my friend, is by =
repentance and faith toward God; and the divinely ordained proof that =
this has happened is tongues. Jesus said it this way, "When the =
Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the =
Spirit of truth, which proceeds from the Father, he shall testify of me" =
(Jn.15:26). Or as Paul would later phrase it, "The Spirit itself bears =
witness with our spirit that we are children of God" (Rom.8:16). The =
Comforter's "testimony", or the Spirit's "witness", is that inspired =
utterance which is unknown to those who are speaking, but not unknown to =
God, nor to whomever He might direct it. So, the chief purpose for =
tongues is to distinguish those who really have repented and received =
God's Spirit from those who only claim to have done so.=20
The "Unknown Tongue"
"Let him who speaks in an unknown tongue pray that he may =
interpret. For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prays, but my =
understanding is unfruitful. What is it then? I will pray with the =
spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also. I will sing with =
the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also" =
(1Cor.14:13-15).
When we speak of an "unknown tongue", what we mean is that it is =
unknown to the speaker. It is certainly not unknown to God, "for he who =
speaks in an unknown tongue speaks . . . unto God" (1Cor.14:2). Those =
who received the holy Ghost when it was first poured out spoke in =
languages which were unknown to them, but which were known to the Jews =
from various nations who heard them. Many Jews had travelled from great =
distances to Jerusalem to observe the Feast of Pentecost and marvelled =
that the "ignorant and unlearned" Galileans spoke fluently in foreign =
languages. They asked, "Are not all these who are speaking Galileans? =
Then how is it that each of us hears our own native language?" So, in =
this case, what was "unknown" about the tongues spoken on this day was =
that the speakers did not know the languages they themselves were =
speaking.
Speaking in Tongues Foretold
Long before Jesus suffered and died to make the holy Ghost =
available to men, God chose tongues as the sign of this new covenant; =
and He announced His choice through the prophets. Through Zephaniah =
(3:9) God promised, "For then will I turn to the people a pure language, =
that they may all call upon the name of the Lord, to serve Him with one =
consent." Through Isaiah (28:11 12) He said, "For with stammering lips =
and another tongue will He speak to this people, to whom He said, `This =
is the REST wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest', and `This is the =
refreshing', yet they would not hear." When a sinner hears someone =
speaking in tongues, the call of the Spirit is to his heart, not to his =
head; it is to his feelings, not to his understanding.
"There appeared to them cloven tongues like fire, and it rested =
upon each one of them. And they were all filled with the holy Spirit and =
began to speak fervently in other tongues as the Spirit impelled them to =
do so" (Acts 2:3-4). The purpose for speaking in tongues is primarily as =
a "sign". Referring to Isaiah's words, Paul wrote, "In the law it is =
written, `With men of other tongues and other lips will I speak unto =
this people, and yet for all that they will not hear Me, saith the =
Lord.' Wherefore", Paul concludes, "tongues are for a sign . . . to them =
that believe not" (1Cor.14:21-22). Notice the words, "tongues are for a =
sign", and ask yourself, "A sign of what?" It is a sign to men, God's =
designated sign, of the way of the Spirit. A singular beauty of the new =
covenant in Christ is that God Himself, through the Spirit, speaks when =
He enters our hearts; we are not dependent upon a man to tell us when we =
have been born of the Spirit.=20
There was a man of God who, in a dream, was carrying the crucified =
Lord to a cemetery to bury him. As he was lowering the Lord Jesus into =
the grave, Jesus opened his eyes and raised his hands, both of them =
holding a little money. Then he spoke. "Take this", he said, "You cannot =
bury this with me." Obeying the command, the man of God took the money =
from the Lord's hands, and saw that in one hand he held twenty-eight =
dollars and eleven cents, while in the other he held eleven dollars and =
twenty-eight cents. As he stared at the money in his hands, the =
twenty-eight dollars and eleven cents changed into the word "Isaiah", =
and the eleven dollars and twentyeight cents changed into the word =
"Matthew"; and he knew the Lord had shown him something of remarkable =
value from those two books. When he awoke, he turned with great =
anticipation to Isaiah 28:11 and to Matthew 11:28, wondering what this =
revelation should mean. In Matthew 11:28-29, he found Jesus pleading =
with his people, "Come unto me all ye that labor and are heavy laden, =
and I will give you REST. Take of my yoke and learn of me, for I am meek =
and lowly in heart, and ye shall find REST for your souls."
And what does this dream and this promised REST have to do with =
tongues? Everything, my friend, for the Scriptures from Isaiah 28:11-12 =
tell how one may recognize the REST of God when he sees it. "For with =
stammering lips and another tongue shall He speak unto this people. To =
whom He said, `THIS IS THE REST wherewith ye may cause the weary to =
REST, and this is the refreshing', yet they would not hear."
Reader, let's get real with God and accept the truth of the =
gospel. Only those who repent and receive the holy Ghost, with the =
evidence of speaking in tongues, have found the REST which God promised =
to His people. I know this is a hard saying, and I would not say it =
unless I knew it to be true. You see, the man who originally wrote this =
tract is he who had the vision of burying Jesus. He is the man whom =
Jesus taught with those two verses.=20
I should mention that another purpose for speaking in tongues is =
to enable us to pray more effectively. Paul explained, "Likewise the =
Spirit helps our infirmities. For we know not what we should pray for as =
we ought, but the Spirit itself makes intercession for us with groanings =
which cannot be uttered" (Rom.8:26).=20
The Gift of Diverse Tongues
In his list of a few gifts of the Spirit (1Cor.12), Paul mentions =
the gift of "diverse tongues". This is not the same thing as speaking in =
tongues when one receives the holy Ghost. It is an added measure, a =
deeper walk in the Spirit for those who already speak in tongues, just =
as the "gift of faith" is for those who already believe. It should be =
noted that Paul never says that "speaking in tongues is a gift." He knew =
better. The gift is "diverse tongues".=20
Many a Christian minister has attempted to excuse his lack of the =
Spirit by teaching that speaking in tongues is a gift that only some in =
the church have received. Don't you swallow that poison, my friend. It =
is the gift of diverse tongues that is given only to some. As for =
speaking in tongues, every member of the church does that, because every =
member of the church has the Spirit of God which testifies when it comes =
in. Multitudes received the holy Ghost and pray in tongues continually, =
but few have received the gift of "diverse tongues".=20
Speaking in tongues through a person is God's witness that He has =
given His Spirit to that person. It is God's sign of the new birth. =
Every born-again person speaks in tongues (or has "stammering lips"), =
beginning the moment of his new birth. If you have not received this =
experience, please do not take this message as a condemnation or a =
belittling of your faith in Jesus. It is not. There were sincere =
followers of Christ in the days of the apostles who did not receive the =
holy Ghost until someone came along and "taught them the way of God more =
perfectly". The baptism of the holy Ghost is for you, and so are we. It =
is essential that you know that nothing but the baptism of the holy =
Ghost will cleanse your soul. It is the baptism of the holy Ghost that =
makes a man a member of the church (1Cor.12:13), and it is the baptism =
of the holy Ghost that washes from our hearts the stain of sin (Acts =
22:16), removing even the desire for sin from the heart of man. The =
baptism of the Spirit is the experience which makes a man a new creature =
in Christ Jesus, fit to live in eternity among the saints.=20

"They Shall Lay Hands On the Sick"
BY GEORGE C. CLARK, SR.
- 1 -
As we read in Mark's true gospel
That "these signs will follow them",
I am wond'ring why they cannot understand.
Are they sure they're sent to preach
His loving truth which is divine?
Are they laying on the sick their humbled hand?
- Chorus -
"Oh, what strange, mysterious power!"
By so many now is said,
As they sit alone and look upon the scene;
But it's real, my friends and loved ones,
For our God has answered prayer;
He has sent us now to teach it plain and clean.
- 2 -
I am sent to give this message
To the preachers, I am sure,
For I see they're drifting now so far away.
Just to tell them of the virtue
That was shed on Calvary's tree
Is the reason that I ask them to obey.
- 3 -
Many days I prayed and fasted
In a church house and the woods.
Many days I was in hunger and in thirst,
Just to prove our Lord can heal
The crowds today who trust in him,
With his gifts and blessings as he did at first.
- 4 -
We will stand the trials and hardships
Just to prove the precious truth,
That the gospel of our Savior doth contain.
They may cast us out as evil,
But we love them yet the more,
For we're living now by faith in Jesus' name.
- 5 -
They may call us devil-workers
As they did our blessed Lord,
For they said the same of Jesus then, you see.
As we stand in final judgment
And 'tis said to us, "Well done",
Then with joy we'll leave this dear ol' battlefield.
- 6 -
I am feeling now the virtue
That was shed for you and me,
And I want to see you people all made whole.
But we must have faith in Jesus
As we come here to be healed;
Then I'm sure we'll reach the dear old gospel goal.

<CENTER><B><I>"I want all of you to speak in tongues." (Paul, in=20
1Cor.14:5)</B></I><
CENTER>
<P>If we believe Paul's words, then we must admit that there is =
such an=20
experience as being empowered by God's holy Spirit to speak in a =
language=20
which we have not learned. The Scriptures bear indisputable =
witness to the=20
presence of this experience in the early church. Beginning in the =
second=20
chapter of Acts and throughout the New Testament writings, there =
are=20
references to this extraordinary blessing among both Jewish and =
Gentile=20
believers.
<P>A few years after the initial outpouring of the Spirit on the =
Jews at=20
Pentecost, God began admitting Gentiles into the church by =
baptizing them=20
with the holy Ghost. This grace, which Jewish believers did not =
expect to=20
be shown to Gentiles, is recorded in <B><I>Acts 10:45-46: "All the =
believing Jews who came with Peter were astonished because the =
gift of the=20
holy Ghost was poured out on the Gentiles also; for they heard =
them=20
speaking in tongues and praising God."</B></I> Later, another =
group of=20
Gentiles spoke in tongues when they received the Spirit: =
<B><I>"And when=20
Paul had laid his hands upon them, the holy Ghost came on them, =
and they=20
spoke in tongues and prophesied" (Acts 19:6).</B></I> These were =
not=20
isolated events; on the contrary, the context in Acts 19 suggests =
that=20
Paul was surprised that these believers had not already received =
the=20
baptism of the Spirit. Further, in all his letters which speak of =
the=20
subject, Paul speaks of this blessing as if it were a normal part =
of=20
church life.=20
<P>In reality, there is no church life without the language of the =
Spirit,=20
for receiving the holy Spirit and speaking in tongues are =
indissolubly=20
united as two parts of one experience in Christ. The moment one =
receives=20
the holy Ghost, he is moved by the Spirit to speak in a language =
he has=20
not learned. This is true in every case, as Jesus explained to =
Nicodemus=20
(Jn.3:8). When all the evidence is rightly divided and justly =
weighed, it=20
becomes clear that every person who receives the holy Ghost speaks =
in=20
tongues when he receives it, and that if one has not spoken in =
tongues,=20
then he has no basis on which to claim that he has received the =
Spirit of=20
God.=20
<P>The only way to receive the holy Ghost, my friend, is by =
repentance and=20
faith toward God; and the divinely ordained proof that this has =
happened=20
is tongues. Jesus said it this way,<B><I> "When the Comforter is =
come,=20
whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of =
truth, which=20
proceeds from the Father, he shall testify of me" =
(Jn.15:26).</B></I> Or=20
as Paul would later phrase it,<B><I> "The Spirit itself bears =
witness with=20
our spirit that we are children of God" (Rom.8:16).</B></I> The=20
Comforter's "testimony", or the Spirit's "witness", is that =
inspired=20
utterance which is unknown to those who are speaking, but not =
unknown to=20
God, nor to whomever He might direct it. So, the chief purpose for =
tongues=20
is to distinguish those who really have repented and received =
God's Spirit=20
from those who only claim to have done so.=20
<P>
<CENTER>
<H2>The "Unknown Tongue"</H2></CENTER>
<P><B><I>"Let him who speaks in an unknown tongue pray that he may =
interpret. For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prays, =
but my=20
understanding is unfruitful. What is it then? I will pray with the =
spirit,=20
and I will pray with the understanding also. I will sing with the =
spirit,=20
and I will sing with the understanding also" =
(1Cor.14:13-15).</B></I>
<P>When we speak of an "unknown tongue", what we mean is that it =
is=20
unknown to the speaker. It is certainly not unknown to God, =
<B><I>"for he=20
who speaks in an unknown tongue speaks . . . unto God"=20
(1Cor.14:2).</B></I> Those who received the holy Ghost when it was =
first=20
poured out spoke in languages which were unknown to them, but =
which were=20
known to the Jews from various nations who heard them. Many Jews =
had=20
travelled from great distances to Jerusalem to observe the Feast =
of=20
Pentecost and marvelled that the "ignorant and unlearned" =
Galileans spoke=20
fluently in foreign languages. They asked,<B><I> "Are not all =
these who=20
are speaking Galileans? Then how is it that each of us hears our =
own=20
native language?"</B></I> So, in this case, what was "unknown" =
about the=20
tongues spoken on this day was that the speakers did not know the=20
languages they themselves were speaking.
<P>
<CENTER>
<H2>Speaking in Tongues Foretold</H2></CENTER>
<P>Long before Jesus suffered and died to make the holy Ghost =
available to=20
men, God chose tongues as the sign of this new covenant; and He =
announced=20
His choice through the prophets. Through Zephaniah (3:9) God =
promised,=20
<B><I>"For then will I turn to the people a pure language, that =
they may=20
all call upon the name of the Lord, to serve Him with one=20
consent."</B></I> Through Isaiah (28:11 12) He said, <B><I>"For =
with=20
stammering lips and another tongue will He speak to this people, =
to whom=20
He said, `This is the REST wherewith ye may cause the weary to =
rest', and=20
`This is the refreshing', yet they would not hear."</B></I> When a =
sinner=20
hears someone speaking in tongues, the call of the Spirit is to =
his heart,=20
not to his head; it is to his feelings, not to his understanding.
<P><B><I>"There appeared to them cloven tongues like fire, and it =
rested=20
upon each one of them. And they were all filled with the holy =
Spirit and=20
began to speak fervently in other tongues as the Spirit impelled =
them to=20
do so" (Acts 2:3-4)</B></I>. The purpose for speaking in tongues =
is=20
primarily as a "sign". Referring to Isaiah's words, Paul =
wrote,<B><I> "In=20
the law it is written, `With men of other tongues and other lips =
will I=20
speak unto this people, and yet for all that they will not hear =
Me, saith=20
the Lord.' Wherefore",</B></I> Paul concludes,<B><I> "tongues are =
for a=20
sign . . . to them that believe not" (1Cor.14:21-22).</B></I> =
Notice the=20
words, <B><I>"tongues are for a sign"</B></I>, and ask yourself, =
"A sign=20
of what?" It is a sign to men, God's designated sign, of the way =
of the=20
Spirit. A singular beauty of the new covenant in Christ is that =
God=20
Himself, through the Spirit, speaks when He enters our hearts; we =
are not=20
dependent upon a man to tell us when we have been born of the =
Spirit.=20
<P>There was a man of God who, in a dream, was carrying the =
crucified Lord=20
to a cemetery to bury him. As he was lowering the Lord Jesus into =
the=20
grave, Jesus opened his eyes and raised his hands, both of them =
holding a=20
little money. Then he spoke. "Take this", he said, "You cannot =
bury this=20
with me." Obeying the command, the man of God took the money from =
the=20
Lord's hands, and saw that in one hand he held twenty-eight =
dollars and=20
eleven cents, while in the other he held eleven dollars and =
twenty-eight=20
cents. As he stared at the money in his hands, the twenty-eight =
dollars=20
and eleven cents changed into the word "Isaiah", and the eleven =
dollars=20
and twentyeight cents changed into the word "Matthew"; and he knew =
the=20
Lord had shown him something of remarkable value from those two =
books.=20
When he awoke, he turned with great anticipation to Isaiah 28:11 =
and to=20
Matthew 11:28, wondering what this revelation should mean. In =
Matthew=20
11:28-29, he found Jesus pleading with his people,<B><I> "Come =

of my=20
yoke and learn of me, for I am meek and lowly in heart, and ye =

<P>And what does this dream and this promised REST have to do with =
tongues? Everything, my friend, for the Scriptures from Isaiah =
28:11-12=20
