When The Ends AND The Means
Are Unjustifiable
by Sandy Simpson

This DVD is a message based on this article.
"... we ought to see clearly that the
end DOES justify the means. What else possible could
justify the means? If the method I am using
accomplishes the goal I am aiming at, it is for that
reason a good method. If, on the other hand, my
method is not accomplishing the goal, how can I be
justified in continuing to use it?"
(C. Peter Wagner, "Your Church Can Grow - Seven Vital
Signs Of A Healthy Church", 1976, pg. 137. - emphasis in
original)
Way
back in 1976 C. Peter Wagner had already expressed a
foundation of sand upon which his entire "apostolic" kingdom
is built. To back up his notions, he and his friends
such as John
Wimber, Paul
Cain and many others began to
get the cart before the horse. They tried to create
revival where there was none with unbiblical and even
heretical ideas. They imported occult ideas from false
religions into the churches, such as "slain
in the spirit" and called the
results "revival". The means they used were the
counterfeit revivals of the Word
Of Faith Movement, the Vineyard
movement, the Toronto
"Blessing", the Brownsville
"Outpouring" and on down the
line to latest Todd
Bentley "Lakeland Revival". The proof that
the means have all been unjustifiable is in the
unjustifiable ends. Lakeland has now come to an
apparent abrupt end due to false healing and dead raising
claims, many false teachings, a false "transferable"
anointing, and sexual misconduct. You can read about
these things in our Todd Bentley section.
Yet the leadership of the New Apostolic Reformation has
not even been slowed by yet another bad end brought about by
the self-destruction of the means. In the latest
ElijahList the false prophets are prophesying even greater
revivals to come.

The
Handkerchief Phenomenon
Addendum
to “A Whole Lot Of Wishful Thinking These Days”
by
Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this article.
There
is a new phenomenon especially among some island churches
where handkerchiefs are being handed around a congregation
claiming that they have an anointing that can cause people
to be healed and other miraculous things happen to them. The
problem with this idea is especially evident in two things:
(1) that this can and is being considered by many to be
Christian magic and (2) that it is being taught as being
something that should be a normal part of the Christian
experience. It is taught that if you have faith you
will believe in touching the handkerchief that you will be
healed, freed from demons, or get a special anointing.
But faith is not proven by signs and wonders.

Three
Fallacies Of Third Wave Spiritual Warfare Teachings
by Sandy
Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
When so-called Christians employ Biblical
pagan methods to rid themselves of demons, they end up
giving the enemy an opportunity to deceive them and a
foothold in their lives. When Israel disobeyed the
Lord's command to come down to Jerusalem and worship Him
in the temple under the Law, and instead chose to set up
altars in the high places, the result was that they ended
up worshiping demons. They thought they were
worshiping God, but ended up worshiping Baal and
Ashtoreth. You cannot live a life glorifying to the
Lord unless you obey Him.

The Duties of Christian
Leadership
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Christians, and especially Christian leadership,
are called to be salt and light in a dark world.
Matt. 5:13-16 "You are the salt of the
earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can
it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything,
except to be thrown out and trampled by men. "You are
the light of the world. A city on
a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp
and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand,
and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same
way, let your light shine before men, that they may see
your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.
When the Lord tells us to be salt and light, He
states both the positive and the negative. That is the
way with all Scripture. We can’t just take the
positive and be done with the subject. We have to
consider all the ramifications of being salt and
light. Salt is used to season food and make it taste
good. It was and still is used as a
preservative. In the same way Christians are to be
salt in the world. Without the witness of Christ,
without standing for the truth, life is ultimately tasteless
and rotten. Anyone here who was a sinner for any
length of time without the Savior knows what I am talking
about. But the flip side is that salt can lose its
saltiness. Christians can lose their saltiness by
diluting the Gospel message to the point where it is
useless. Let me give you an example of a washed out
Gospel often preached in churches today.

The New Powerless
Gospel
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
TI have been
challenged lately to think again about what the Gospel
message is all about. This has come as a result of
hearing what I considerto be, at the very least, "gospel
lite" and at the most no gospel at all being presented by a
number of neo-evangelicals, Third Wavers and
outrightheretics. The interesting thing is that many
seem to be preaching the same message. What is
most intriguing is that false teachers like Benny Hinn,
ecumenicals, and even some preachers I would considerto be
orthodox in their theology are preaching a "gospel" that is
very similar.The question is: Is this new gospel message
really the Gospel at all?

Leviathan
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
This creature that existed, and may yet
exist, is used as a description of the might and power
of the enemy.
Isaiah 27:1 In that day the LORD will
punish Leviathan the
fleeing serpent, With His
fierce and great and mighty sword, Even Leviathan the
twisted serpent; And He will kill the dragon who lives in
the sea. (NASB)
Speaking of the “day of the
Lord”, when the Lord comes back again to rule and judge
the earth, Isaiah says that the Lord will punish Leviathan
the dragon. Satan is
likened to leviathan, a serpent, and he is said to live in
the sea.
Revelation 13:1 And the dragon stood on the
sand of the seashore. Then I
saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten
horns and seven heads, and on his horns were ten
diadems, and on his heads were blasphemous
names. (NASB)
Again the dragon comes out of
the sea, which is symbolic of the nations of the world,
but perhaps is also tied to a literal meaning. He
has multiple heads which are symbolic of the heads of the
nations of the end times, but he is also said to have
multiple heads before the symbolism of the nations of the
revived Babylon come into being, as recorded in Ps. 74:14
and Job.

Pre
Millennial and Post Millennial Doctrines Do Not Mix
by Sandy Simpson

This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Many Christians today (having allowed themselves to be
diapraxed by false teachers on TV, in books, in seminars
and on tape) have begun to accept a mixture of Pre Mil and
Post Mil doctrines. Many claim they still hold to a
Pre Trib Rapture (or another Pre Mil scenario) and at the
same time would claim that Christians are in a great end
times revival, that "Transformation" is taking place all
over the world, and that our mandate is to retake dominion
over the whole world including its businesses, social
agendas and political arenas (a Post Mil scenario).
But what many "Christians" today do not realize is: the
mixture they have accepted is oxymoronic.

New Age

by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this

There are two kingdoms being taught in many

the decline while the other is being promoted all over the

have been reading and recommend on building "the kingdom",
the people they have been hanging out with at conferences,

Why False Teachers Have So Many Followers
by Sandy Simpson

This DVD is a message based on this
article.
1 John
4:4-6 You, dear children, are from God and have
overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than
the one who is in the world. They are
from the world and therefore speak from the viewpoint of
the world, and the world listens to them. We are from
God, and whoever knows God listens to us; but whoever
is not from God does not listen to us. This
is how we recognize the Spirit {Or spirit} of truth and the
spirit of falsehood.
The reason why false teachers, who deny one or more of the
core doctrines of the Faith, gain so many followers is
that they are saying what the world wants to hear.
They organize their churches so that they cater to
unbelievers, and once non Christians come in they are fed
a diet devoid of the essential nutrition of the Gospel and
sound doctrine. False teachers conduct surveys to
see what non-believers are looking for in a "church" and
then provide those things. False teachers claim they
are bringing people into the Kingdom when in fact they are
bringing them out of the world and back into the world,
the only difference now being that they are spending their
money in support of some apostate leader and/or group.

False
Apostles
of the New
Apostolic Reformation
by Sandy Simpson

This DVD is a message based on this
article.
The NAR proponents claim to be
foundational Apostles to the modern church. This claim
is exactly what Paul warned the Church about regarding false
apostles. The term "false apostles" is used only once in
the Bible in 2 Cor. 11:13. False apostles are identified
as those who claim they are equal with
the the foundational Apostles. The NAR proponents go
even further! They claim to be GREATER than
the original Apostles.

by Sandy Simpson

This DVD set is a message based on this
article.
Jude 1:1-2 Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ
and a brother of James, To those who have been called, who
are loved by God the Father and kept by Jesus Christ: Mercy,
peace and love be yours in abundance. Jude was the brother
of Jesus Christ. But it is significant that he calls himself
the brother of James. Jude wants everyone to know that,
though he is a half-brother of Jesus Christ through his
mother Mary, he considers himself to be a servant of Jesus.
I’m sure there were those who tried to idolize him for being
the brother of Jesus Christ. If he had the character of some
of the current large crop of false teachers, he would have
written “Jude, the brother of Jesus Christ.” I’m sure if
some of these modern heretics could trace their roots back
to Christ, they would use that information to get support
for themselves and power over people. But Jude does just the
opposite. He calls himself the servant of Jesus Christ. He
is addressing this letter to those who have been called, and
who are loved by God the Father and kept by Jesus Christ. So
he is addressing this letter to Christians. God has called
every true believer.

A Word of Encouragement
from Paul
Run the Race, Win the Prize
by Sandy
Simpson

This DVD is a message based on this
article.
But our citizenship is in heaven. And we
eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus
Christ, who, by the power that enables him to bring
everything under his control, will transform our lowly
bodies so that they will be like his glorious
body. Jesus Christ is coming again. We are
citizens of heaven, not this earth, and Jesus will come
to take us to our homeland. So true believers
eagerly await His coming, unlike those who oppose the
cross of Christ who think they must take dominion over
the earth or laugh at the idea of the Rapture.
There are many of them today. We know that when
Jesus comes, by His power, He will bring everything
under His control. We are not called to do that as
the Church. Jesus will do that when He comes, and
when He comes we will be changed and receive our
everlasting bodies that will never wear out.
1 Cor. 15:51-57 Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will
not all sleep, but we will all be changed in a flash, in
the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the
trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised
imperishable, and we will be changed. For the perishable
must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal
with immortality. When the perishable has been clothed
with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality,
then the saying that is written will come true: "Death
has been swallowed up in victory." "Where, O death, is
your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?" The sting
of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But
thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our
Lord Jesus Christ.

Entertainment-style Christianity
vs. Interactive-style Christianity
by Sandy Simpson

This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Today,
in
a majority of churches, we see the result of the
seeker-friendly,"purpose-driven", church growth,
Third Wave, New Apostolic Reformation methods and
teachings and their product I am
calling"Entertainment-style Christianity" (ESC).
But ESC churches are not only missing out on the cutting
edge of true Christianity, but areheading down the road
to apostasy.
True
biblical
Christianity is "interactive". Those in ESC are
taughtto be spectators at mega-church entertainment
events. They are not taught the Bible but rather
to be enamored with the oratoricalskills of the
preacher, and to not dare question anything that is
shoved down the throats of the "laity" by the ruling
"anointed"elite. They are treated to a circus
atmosphere including wild CCM music with people flailing
around and acting like they are on drugs, topreachers
who tell endless stories about themselves and joke about
everything while actually making profundity mundane, to
hula dancing,to banners and marching in the church and
around it, to the blowing of shofars, to slain in the
spirit and wild manifestations. Theirsears are
tickled by guest speakers who make up sermons out of
their own imaginations instead of the written
Word. They are entertainedwith gold dust, gold
fillings, "angel" feathers, "angel" footprints, drunk in
the spirit antics, and during these displays they can go
outand get a latte and a snack at the church snack
bar. They come into these mega churches and leave
without being personally challengedother than with tired
worldly psychology, and without anyone being able to
find out what they are doing in their private
lives. A smallpercentage attend "cell groups"
where they are diapraxed into consensus instead of
challenged to be Bereans and think and act
forthemselves. They live like the world during the
week, then come to church where the world is not only
welcomed but accommodated.

Saturate 2020 adherants are those who are
drunk and think they can save the planet
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this

Commentators
seem to think that this section of Habakkuk was addressing
the Ceasars and
their drunken desire for power. Seems
these two things often go together.
Those
who love drunk in the spirit are no exception. They
are trying to get others to share in their debauchery and
the false hope of an end-times worldwide revival,
currently through the Saturate 2020 events. Though
these were two of the heretical distinctives of
the New Order of the Latter Rain, these ideas are nothing

A Warning about Saturate 2020
by Sandy Simpson & Marco
Quintana
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Saturate 2020 is another in a long line of
Latter Rain revivals which do not meet the criteria of a
Biblical revival at all (Acts 3:19). The Toronto
“Blessing” and Brownsville “Revival” both came into towns
all over the world with the promise that people were getting
saved and nothing weird was going on at their
meetings. This was always a lie as the true
Gospel was not preached but instead people were invited
forward to have hands laid on them in order to transfer an
impartation. Meanwhile false doctrines were laid
down in order to get people involved in churches like Bethel
Church in Redding, CA. We are warned in Scripture
about this.
Galatians
2:4 But it was because of the false
brethren secretly brought in, who had sneaked in
to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ
Jesus, in order to bring us into bondage.
2 Peter
2:1 But false prophets also arose among the
people, just as there will also be false teachers among
you, who will secretly introduce destructive
heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing
swift destruction upon themselves.
The fact that some formerly Biblical churches have joined
this circus is a testament to their lack of teaching
discernment. Some of these denominations were
warned repeatedly about the Latter Rain, Word of Faith and
the New Apostolic Reformation yet they apparently wanted to
remain “willfully ignorant”. The people
advertised as being involved with this latest “revival” are
almost all associated with Bethel in some way and promoters
of what they teach. This is not a true Biblical
revival but rather a revival of the occult and New Age among
Christians. This meeting is actually hurting the
cause of Christ and will not have any real beneficial effect
on the culture of California, which has turned decidedly
evil for decades. These Dominionists
will not be saving the planet, but are rather setting people
up for the coming antichrist. Nor will they rid
the world of coronavirus, but rather likely add to it.

Should Biblical Churches Be Christocentric?
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Should biblical
Christian churches be Christ-centered (Christocentric)?
Should the doctrines of the Father (Patriology) and the Holy
Spirit (Pnematology) also be equally emphasized? Can a
church be Patriocentric or Pnemacentric and be biblical?
The answer to
these questions are quite simple from a biblical
perspective. There have been charges leveled at some
movements such as the Pietist Movement in Germany and other
movements that they place too much emphasis on Christ to the
exclusion of the Father and the Holy Spirit. This may be
true to a certain degree. The doctrines of the Father,
Son and Holy Spirit must be taught with equal emphasis so that
Christians will know what they believe.
But should a
church be Patriocentric or Pnemacentric? No. For
instance, there are far too many churches today, having been
influenced by hyper-Pentecostalism and the Latter Rain, that
are Pnemacentric. They spend most of their time focusing
on the Holy Spirit to the exclusion of preaching the Gospel
while, in fact, they don't even have a biblical doctrine of
the Holy Spirit. I believe that because classic
Evangelicals, to a certain degree, dropped the ball in
defining the Person and role of the Holy Spirit it gave an
opening to Third Wavers to step in with their erroneous ideas
of Pnematology.

The
Letter to Laodicea
Is
a Warning to the TRUE Church Today
by Sandy Simpson

This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Rev. 3:14-22
And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write;
These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true
witness, the beginning of the creation of God; I know thy
works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou
wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and
neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods,
and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art
wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: I
counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that
thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest
be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not
appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou
mayest see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be
zealous therefore, and repent. Behold, I stand at the
door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the
door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he
with me. To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with
me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down
with my Father in his throne. He that hath an ear, let him
hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
Much has been made of this passage, using it to point out
what is happening today in the apostate churches around
the world. It is true that they believe they are
rich in spiritual things when they are very poor. It
can be applied in one sense to the Word
of Faith movement.
It is true that the "River" movement of Latter Rain
teachings do think they are hot when actually they are
cold.
But this letter to the end times church
of Laodicea is actually talking to biblical Christians who
are born again. The apostate movements of the Latter
Rain, Third
Wave, Toronto
"Blessing", Vineyard, Brownsville
"Outpouring", Word
of Faith, New
Apostolic Reformation, World
Gathering on Indigenous People, Manifest
Sons of God, Seeker
Friendly, Church
Growth, Emerging
Church and many others have already
had their lampstands removed (Rev. 2:5) because of their
apostasy and have already been spit out of the Lord's mouth
(Rev. 3:16). We can know this because of what the
Bible says about those who teach false doctrines (1 Tim.
6:3-5, 2 Tim. 4:3) and make false prophecies (1 John 4:1).
These false churches, false movements and false brethren
(Gal. 2:4) are already under the judgment of the warnings of
the seven
letters, as all but two of the original first century
churches are today (only the two who Jesus did not warn
still survive today). Therefore the letters
to the churches apply to those
churches who have not had their lampstands removed and been
spit out of the mouth of God because of heresy and false
prophesy. So the warning to the true biblical churches
today remains. Why is this warning significant to us?
It is significant
because, by in large, it is the
true Church today that has allowed the movements mentioned
above to infiltrate and take over the agenda for what is
called "Christianity" today.

Jesus
Cares for You
by Sandy Simpson

This DVD is a message based o
n this article.
Read Passage: John 6:1-15
The story of the feeding
of the 5000 is found in all the gospels of Matthew, Mark,
Luke & John. When something is repeated in the Bible it
means that it is important and is something we must try to
understand. There is often a deeper meaning in sentences or
stories that are repeated.
In this same story
repeated in Mark 6:34 it says:
"When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion
on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. So
he began teaching them many things."
One of the main things that Jesus is... is compassionate. He
cares for His people. He was compassionate then and He is
still compassionate today. Jesus came and saw the needs of
the people. So He did two things. He met their physical need
of hunger for bread, and He also met their spiritual hunger
for the bread of life. As Jesus told us in John ... He is
the bread of life. The Bible, the Word of God, being the
word of the Father and the Son, is also the bread of
life. Jesus is the living example of the Word as it
also says in John "The Word was made flesh and lived among
us".

What Does The Bible Teach About "Synergy"?
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Synergy is also a concept being adapted and taught today
as a major tenet of the Third Wave, New Apostolic Reformation
(NAR) movement. Dutch Sheets was one of the first to
introduce this concept to that movement back in the National
School of the Prophets - Mobilizing the Prophetic Office
Conference at Ted Haggard's New Life Church in Colorado

Upgrade
Your Old Hymns For The New Paradigm!
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
HUMOR: Time for a rewrite of the old
hymns. In this day and age of Third Wave revival
movements and Word-Faith dominion, the old hymns just aren't
cutting it anymore. Not only are they old fashioned
musically, but the lyrics are, for the most part,
particularly depressing. They talk of sin, death,
repentance, the cross, the blood of Jesus and a whole host
of other disgusting subjects. There are also too many
lyrics in them, frankly, which takes away from the "worship"
atmosphere. Repetitiveness is what we need, not dead
doctrinal concepts. The old hymns are just too biblical.
Give us a beat to move our feet, not concepts to move our
hearts and minds!
Here is a list of some hymns that could be
"upgraded" to meet the criteria of the Third Wave,
Word-Faith, Latter Rain, Manifest Sons Of God, New Apostolic
Reformation. This list is by no means complete.
If you don't recognize the hymns mentioned perhaps it would
be worth your time to go back and read them, then compare
what they say to the new doctrines.

Almost
Saved
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
“To be almost saved is to be totally lost.”
– Adrian Rogers
There are many so-called
“Christians” today who are clearly “almost saved” by their
testimonies and/or actions.But
to be “almost saved” is to be completely lost.A
person who is drowning and almost saved drowns.A woman who is almost pregnant is not
pregnant.King Agrippa said, “You are almost persuading me to
be a Christian (Acts 26:28)” but being almost persuaded is
not enough to be saved.
The word
“almost” means “very nearly”, “not quite.” In light of this
we may conclude that to come close to the target, or
“almost” hit it, means to completely miss the mark. (Shalem Evangelical Church Bush Hall
Yard Gap, St. Michael)

"Silence
the
noise of your songs"
by Sandy Simpson, 5/26/19
Amos 5:21-27 “I hate, I reject your festivals,
nor do I delight in your solemn assemblies. “Even though
you offer up to Me burnt offerings and your grain offerings, I
will not accept them; and I will not even look at the peace
offerings of your fatlings. “Take away from Me the noise of
your songs; I will not even listen to the sound of your harps.
“But let justice roll down like waters and righteousness like
an ever-flowing stream. Did you present Me with sacrifices and
grain offerings in the wilderness for forty years, O house of
Israel? You also carried along Sikkuth your king and Kiyyun,
your images, the star of your gods which you made for
yourselves. Therefore, I will make you go into exile beyond
Damascus,” says the Lord, whose name is the God of hosts. When
I first reread this passage in Amos, a few things struck
me. First of all the Lord is bringing judgment on Israel
for carrying on religious ceremony without true dedication to
the Lord. They sing songs and present their offerings
while harboring idols. I was reminded of how the Lord
must view the heretical apostate mega church celebrations of
today. There is a lot of pomp and circumstance, yet
little or no obedience to the Word of God. The Lord does
not look favorably upon worship of that type, no matter the
hype, no matter the noise, no matter the show. He
actually “hates” it.

How To Find A Good Church
by Sandy Simpson, 2003
Here’s how to find a good church. What
you need to find is a church that not only has orthodox
doctrinal statements but teaches, both explicitly and
implicitly, in line with the core doctrines of the
Faith. These are Bible-believing Christ-centered
churches that are balanced in their theology. Be sure to
test all churches before you become involved. It is
acceptable to get involved with a house church or Bible study
as long as there is someone who has the gift of teaching there
to lead the study of God’s Word.
Hebrews 10:25 not forsaking our own assembling
together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one
another; and all the more as you see the day drawing near.
The Christian life is not one to be lived
alone. Trust me; I have sympathy for those who have been
spiritually injured by false churches, false prophets, false
teachers and false apostles. It is often a long road
back from the diaprax of heresy. But to undo the
brainwashing you will need help, especially from those who are
already ahead of you on your journey back. The first
century church was known for the following:
Acts 2:42 They were continually devoting
themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the
breaking of bread and to prayer.
This is a good gauge to tell if you are
involved in an effective assembly of believers, no matter how
small. Remember that the first century churches were in
homes. In my experience smaller churches are much better
at doing the above and more. Avoid mega churches.

This book was written by my mother and is about
my family's experience as missionaries in Micronesia.
Juanita went to be with the Lord in August of 2018. This
book has been a blessing to many people around the world and I
want to share it with you. - Sandy Simpson
This
is the story of a young woman who goes to the ends of
the Earth with her pastor husband and two small
children. While describing the hardships of living in a
remote village on a remote Pacific Island in the 60's,
it also gives us a vision of the joy the family
experienced as well. The heart of the book is the story
of how the author survives the death of her husband and
goes on to serve God and the Micronesian people in her
own right.This book reveals a woman of great
faith and courage. In addition, the book is well written
and a pleasure to read.Having met the author, I will add that
there are thousands of people throughout Micronesia who
love her and who have benefited by her faithfulness and
commitment over the years. Read the book and get to know
this wonderful woman. Review by Richard D. Shewman on Amazon.

A Short History of
Dominionism
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
In order to understand where the
modern fusion called “Dominioism”
comes from, I want to first give you definitions of
Kingdom Now, Dominionism
and Reconstructionism.
Dominionism is sparsely defined as follows:
“Dominion
Theology (also known as Dominionism)
is a group of Christian political ideologies that seek
to institute a nation governed by Christians based on
their personal understandings of biblical law. Extents
of rule and ways of achieving governing authority are
varied. For example, Dominion Theology can include theonomy, but does
not necessarily involve advocating Mosaic law as the
basis of government. The label is applied primarily
toward groups of Protestants in the United States.” [1]
It is more closely
defined this way:
“Dominionism, or Christian Dominionism is a
term coined by social scientists and popularized by
journalists to refer to a subset of American
Christianity that is conservative, politically active,
and believes that Christians should, and eventually
will, take control of the government. The term is
sometimes used as a “catch-all” by bloggers to describe
any politically active Christian, but not every
conservative, politically minded Christian is a Dominionist.
Christian Dominionists
believe that God desires Christians to rise to power
through civil systems so that His Word might then govern
the nation. The belief that “America is a Christian
nation” is sometimes called “soft dominionism”; the idea that God
wants only Christians to hold government office and run
the country according to biblical law is called
“hard dominionism.” [2]
“Hard Dominioism” as it is called in the
above definition, is what C. Peter Wagner (deceased) of
the New Apostolic Reformation (a term he coined) have been
advocating, following the teachings of the New Order of
the Latter Rain and Reformed Theology “Reconstructionism”.

Maturity Training
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Heb. 5:14 But
solid food is for the MATURE, who by constant use have
trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.
At the core of maturity in Christ is the issue
of training to be able to distinguish between good and
evil, right and wrong. But in today’s churches this
issue has not only been downplayed, but actually swept
aside.
I run a website and get hundreds of emails
every week. Since the website deals with apologetics
against false teachers and false prophets, about half
the email I receive is blasting me for even bringing up
the issue. These emails are from “Christians” who claim
I am not “anointed”, don’t understand the work of the
Holy Spirit, etc. I am forced to remind them of Hebrews
5 and Ephesians 4 and the biblical definition of
maturity in Christ. Maturity is not defined as following
dynamic speakers, running after people who claim the
ability to perform signs and wonders, those with wealth,
charismatic teachers with large numbers of followers,
those with name recognition, and prophets who make wild
prophecies. It is defined simply as training ourselves
to know the difference between good and evil.
Where do Christians get solid food? From
voices in their heads, intuition, imaginations, flights
of fancy, signs, wonders? No. Solid food is consumed by
feeding on the meat of the written Word of God.

The Use of Invective
in Apologetics
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
This article is about the use of invective
while attempting to do apologetics or teaching
discernment. Invective is defined as a noun: insulting,
abusive, or highly critical language ie. "he let out a stream
of invective". I admit to using invective at times in
the past. My goal is to stop that practice and focus on
the facts, not attack an individual’s ability to
comprehend.
In the case of Christians, the first thing to
consider when doing apologetics is our mandate to reconcile
people to Christ, no matter who they are.
2 Cor. 5:18-21 Now all these things are from
God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us
the ministry of reconciliation, namely, that God was in
Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their
trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word
of reconciliation. Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ,
as though God were making an appeal through us; we beg you
on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. He made Him who
knew no sin to be sin on our behalf so that we might become
the righteousness of God in Him.

Ten Questions
For those who Claim the "Supreme Beings" of the Nations are
the True God
by Sandy Simpson
This booklet is taken from this
article!
I have some questions for those of the World
Christian Gathering of Indigenous People (WCGIP) adherents
such as Don Richardson, Daniel Kikawa,
Richard Twiss
(deceased), Terry LeBlanc, Danny Lehman, Aloha KeAkua,
YWAM as well as many in the Emergent Church (EC) ... the
questions arise from their claim that the "supreme beings"
of the nations are all the True God, YHWH, the God of
Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. You can read more on this
subject in our book "Idolatry In Their Hearts"
or in the WCGIP
section of my site.
My
main question for them is this: When did ANY of the
Patriarchs and Prophets in the Old Testament and the
Apostles or Jesus Christ in the New Testament EVER claim
that the "supreme beings" of the nations were Elohim/YHWH, the one True God?

Real Revival
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Acts 3:19 Therefore repent and return,
so that your sins may be wiped away, in order that times
of refreshing may come from the presence of the
Lord;
There has been so much hype of "revival" in
our modern day that it is easy to forget the true biblical
criteria and definition of revival. Revival cannot be
brought about by signs and wonders or "laying" on of hands
to transfer apostolic or prophetic "anointings". In fact
there is no such thing in the Bible.The Biblical criterion
for revival has, as a precondition, repentance. The word
"refreshing" is also defined as "revive".

Occult Practices in the
Churches
How the occult has been fully
integrated into many Christian lives and fellowships
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
The Bible is quite clear about occult
practices.Neither Israel
nor the Church is to have anything to do with the way the
world tries to gain secret knowledge.The
Gnostics were and are known for promoting new revelation
that is either loosely tied to Scripture taken out ofcontext
or not at all.The
Israelites seeking information from the dead or in omens
were judged harshly by the Lord who had warned them numerous
times to stay away from that stuff.
Yet due to the influences of
heretical teachers in the New Apostolic Reformation, Word of
Faith, Emergent Church, and
the New Age many have been successful in getting lots of
churches and denominations into occult practices that have
been thinly disguised as “Christian"? Many
of those who follow these people, I’m sure, have no idea how far they have strayed
into the occult.
First I want to give the
dictionary definitions and then Biblical warnings against
these practices.Then I
will give examples in the churches taken mainly from
the ElijahList
e-newsletter.
List of Practices Detestable To God
Deuteronomy 18:9-12 “When you
enter the land which the Lord your God gives you, you
shall not learn to imitate the detestable things of those
nations. There shall not be found among you anyone who
makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, one
who uses divination, one who practices witchcraft, or
one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer, or one who
casts a spell, or a medium, or a spiritist, or one who calls up the
dead. For whoever does these things is detestable to
the Lord; and because
of these detestable things
the Lord your God will drive them out before you.
Isaiah 8:19 When they say
to you, “Consult the mediums and the spiritists who whisper and
mutter," should not a peopleconsult their God?Should they consult the dead on behalf of the
living?
Using the above list from
Deuteronomy and Isaiah, let’s take a look at each
individual practice.

New
Important Book!
Dominionism!
How Unbiblical Action Can Change The
Churches
by Dr. Orrel Steinkamp & Sandy
Simpson
Preface
By Sandy Simpson
The title and cover art of this work are a
play off of the book by C. Peter Wagner entitled “"Dominion!
How Kingdom Action Can Change The World". In contrast
to this specious claim we have titled this book
“Dominionism! How Unbiblical Action Can Change The
Churches". We think that is far more in keeping with
what we will present in this series of articles and essays
on the subject of Kingdom Now/Dominionism.
Indeed, many churches have already been
changed by accepting the false teachings that constitute
Dominionism. This started decades ago under Reformed
Reconstrucionism and Latter Rain theology, but even before
that in the Roman Catholic Church (RCC). The attempt
of Constantine to protect Christians from being persecuted,
since he claimed he had become one of them, turned out to
begin a journey in syncretism and Dominion. It wasn’t
long before corrupt church officials began to try to seize
power all over Europe and beyond as the “Holy Roman
Empire". The Reformation itself was a reaction to the
lengths to which the RCC had gone to take control over the
Scriptures, the nations, the kingdoms, and the people for
financial gain. They sold indulgences, promising those
who came up with enough money a much shorter time in
Purgatory. Those same ploys are being used today on
what has been loosely called “Christian television" by the
sale of trinkets and promises of healing, financial gain and
even salvation.
These ideas all coalesce in
Dominionism. If it were true that the Church needs to
take over the planet, then we would be seeing the
unstoppable plans of God’s physical Kingdom unfolding.
But we do not. All we see are failed prophecies, empty
edicts and declarations coming from false apostles and false
prophets. They love to fool Christians with talk of
the “kingdom" when it is clear they are talking about a
different “kingdom"; a Kingdom Now not a Kingdom come.
Jesus taught us to pray: “Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done
on earth as it is in heaven". The implication is that
we are to be about building His spiritual Kingdom while
praying for and expecting His physical Kingdom to
come. The only way we can do that is to continue in
the Great Commission till He comes, not attempt to rule
where God has not given the Church the authority to
rule. Jesus will do that when He returns. If we go off
on the tangent the Dominionists want us to go, we will not
only miss out on the blessings of His Kingdom to come, but
may well be deserving of judgment.

Seeds, Soil & Fruit
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Bad seeds from a bad tree yield bad fruit.
Matt. 13:38-39 The field is the world,
and the good seed stands for the sons of the kingdom. The
weeds are the sons of the evil one, and the enemy who sows
them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age,
and the harvesters are angels.
Matthew 7:17 Likewise every good tree
bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit.
Original sin is the bad seed in everyone.
We all start with a bad seed.
Jer. 17:9 The heart is deceitful
above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand
it?
Rom. 3:23 for all have sinned
and fall short of the glory of God,
Rom. 5:12 Therefore, just as sin
entered the world through one man, and death through sin,
and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned
We need to have the bad seed destroyed and
replaced with good seed.
Gal. 5:24 Those who belong to Christ
Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its
passions and desires.
Rom. 6:6 For we know that our old
self was crucified with him so that the body of sin might
be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves
to sin
1 Pet. 1:23 For you have been born
again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable,
through the living and enduring word of God.
The good seed is the Word, the Gospel.
Luke 8:11 "This is the meaning of the
parable: The seed is the word of God.
1 John 3:9 No one who is born of God
will continue to sin, because God's seed remains in him;
he cannot go on sinning, because he has been born of God.
Bad seeds are from the enemy and are full of
false doctrine and a false gospel.
Matt. 13:38-39 The field is the world,
and the good seed stands for the sons of the kingdom. The
weeds are the sons of the evil one, and the enemy who sows
them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age,

Will the Real Blasphemers Please
Stand Up?
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
This subject is one so serious that I do it
with great fear and trepidation. Nonetheless, because I get
so many e-mails accusing me and other Bereans of blasphemy,
among other serious charges, I felt it was necessary to
clear up some issues on this topic. Because of my stand for
the truth of God's Word juxtaposed against all the false
teaching that is going on today, I think it is important to
do a quick study on what blasphemy is actually all about
from a biblical standpoint. There are many references
to blasphemy in the Bible and from them we can find out how
and why that term was used.
You will see that the word "blasphemy" in the
Scriptures is the very definition of what the false teachers
and false prophets are doing today!

"Glitter Christians"
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Glitter Christians.
This is a name I came up with for people
attending and teaching at Oral Roberts University in the
70s. Even back then I had come to realize that their
way of representing Christianity was not in line with the
Scriptures. At that time I didn’t know that Oral
Roberts was carrying on the Word of Faith traditions of New
Thought practitioners such as Kenneth Hagin, Kenneth
Copeland, Essex Kenyan, Norman Vincent Peale, Robert
Schuler, and many other false teachers of the time.
Though I didn’t know anything about Word of Faith or New
Thought then I knew that the way they were representing
Christianity was just not right somehow. Their desire
to portray Christians as rich, beautiful, healthy, perfect,
and virtually sinless (holiness) went directly against the
example of Jesus, the Apostles and the early church.

Bradford Pear Christianity

I was driving along and noticing that spring
has sprung here in North Carolina. One of the first trees to
bloom is the Bradford Pear. I began to notice how that tree
has proliferated almost everywhere and then my wife looked
up the information on this tree on the web. As she began to
read the facts about this tree and its proliferation I began
to see an allegorical parallel to what is going on in much
of Christendom. But before I get into what the Bradford Pear
can show us about the churches, I need to present the facts
about the tree.

we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into
temptation, but deliver us from the evil one."

The future of apologetics and
discernment ministries
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
I admit that I am very
skeptical about the future of discernment and apologetics
ministries. I don't see the next generation coming up to
replace those who have stood for the truth for so long.
Fortunately many apologists have gone to be with the Lord
but who will replace them? I don't see replacements coming
up who will take the place of those who have been fighting
the fight the years. I run a web site where I collect
articles and materials from all over the world and present
them in a sort of Reader's Digest format so that people can
come to one place to get the latest information on heresies
in the churches as well as research past ones. What I've
seen in the last couple of years is that the production of
regular materials is declining to the point where it's
becoming difficult to find one article for my site to post
every day. Of course I write my own articles but don't have
enough time to write an article on a daily basis. I am very
concerned because of the tsunami of false ideas from the
enemy in the churches. At the same time, unfortunately, I
see a lot of younger people who don't even recognize anymore
that something is wrong.

Church History & The Core
Doctrines
by Sandy Simpson
This 4-DVD set is a combination of a condensed
study on Church History and the Discernment Toolkit series which
deals with the core doctrines of the Church and how to use them
to discern error. The Church History DVD takes a different
approach to Church History in that it does not celebrate the
Catholic Church but rather exposes it as false
Christianity. It covers World religions, false
Christianity and finally a study of the true remnant Church
through history following the story of the many martyrs who
stood up for true Biblical faith.

The "Weight of Glory"
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
2 Corinthians 4:17 For our light affliction,
which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more
exceeding and eternal weight of glory; (KJV)
This is both an incredible source of hope
for Christians who are downtrodden, and a source of
escalating heresy in many churches.It is critical that we
understand what Paul was talking about when he wrote the
phrase “weight of glory".Jacob Prasch has repeated this
phrase in his teachings over the years … “A text, out of
context, in isolation from co-text is always a pre-text."A
huge problem today is that individuals and movements tend to
yank verses out of their context and build a cult of heresy
around them.This is called eisegesis or plugging your own
ideas into the Scriptures instead of exegesis, gaining
understanding and interpretation of the Bible by studying it
in context and in the scope of the whole written Word.

Did God Put "Eternity In Their Hearts"
or "The World In Their Hearts"?
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
In the introduction to Mike Oppenheimer's
and my book "Idolatry In Thier Hearts" I exposed the fact
that Don Richardson pulled the phrase "Eternity In Thier
Hearts" to use as his book title from it's context in Ecc.
3:11. He did this to support his thesis, which
actually contradicts the second part of that verse, where it
states that man cannot fathom what God has done. Richardson,
rather, sets forth what has become the foundation for the
false teachings of the WCGIP, YWAM, a number of Bible
translation societies and the Emerging Church ... the
propostion that men from Gentile cultures have always been
seeking God and that Gentile cultures were already
worshipping the true God before missionaries came with the
Gospel.
But as I further investigated this verse I
found that Richardson even ignored the true meaning of the
FIRST half of the verse in favor of a few translations that
use the phrase "eternity in their hearts".

Christians who “turn away�?
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Jeremiah 3:10-11 And yet for all this
her treacherous sister Judah hath not turned unto me with her
whole heart, but feignedly, saith the LORD. And the LORD said
unto me, “The backsliding Israel hath justified herself more
than treacherous Judah." (KJV) Israel had turned away from the
Lord and had gone after the gods of Canaan, namely
Baal and Asherah. Because Israel had
prostituted herself with false gods in worshipping the
polytheistic gods that started at Babel, God had declared He
was divorcing Israel and would send them into exile until they
again returned to the true God. But Judah prided itself in
doing what God had commended as they had Jerusalem and the
Temple. They disdained Israel for setting up altars to
Baal and Asherah poles on high hills. Yet God was not
fooled by Judah’s pretence. In the KJV it says they were
not worshipping God with their whole heart but
“feignedly".

Prophets for profit
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
2 Cor. 2:17 Unlike so many, we do not peddle
the word of God for profit. On the contrary, in Christ we
speak before God with sincerity, as those sent from God.
There are many false teachers on TV these days
who peddle the word of God for profit. They make
promises of healing that do not come true by claiming if they
are given a financial gift the person will receive healing and
riches. When what they promised does not happen the
person is blamed that they did not have enough faith. This
often destroys the faith of people who fall into the traps of
these snake oil salesmen. I have no problem with people
charging for their materials if they cost to be produced, even
though it is hoped that when a person cannot afford to pay for
books and DVDs they will receive them free of charge.
But the charges levied on people for conferences and speaking
engagements is often excessive. A minister of God can
ask for support and deserves it if they are being diligent in
their study and proclamation of the Word. But
experiences and feelings often come with a price today and
that is not right.

"Mistake" or "Sin"?
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Today we often hear the word "mistake"
coming from pulpits, and especially in defense of false
teaching and false prophesy. "Cut him some
slack! He just made some mistakes". "We all make
mistakes, so don't judge lest you be judged." We even
hear the word "mistakes" being substituted for the word
"sin" in many presentations of what I have termed "Gospel
Lite" today. So is it proper to substitute the word
"mistake" for the word "sin"? We'll look at the
problem of one word "mistakenly" being used for the
other.

Upgrade
Your Old Hymns For The New Paradigm!
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
HUMOR: Time for a rewrite of the old
hymns. In this day and age of Third Wave revival
movements and Word-Faith dominion, the old hymns just aren't
cutting it anymore. Not only are they old fashioned
musically, but the lyrics are, for the most part,
particularly depressing. They talk of sin, death,
repentance, the cross, the blood of Jesus and a whole host
of other disgusting subjects. There are also too many
lyrics in them, frankly, which takes away from the "worship"
atmosphere. Repetitiveness is what we need, not dead
doctrinal concepts. The old hymns are just too biblical.
Give us a beat to move our feet, not concepts to move our
hearts and minds!
Here is a list of some hymns that could be
"upgraded" to meet the criteria of the Third Wave,
Word-Faith, Latter Rain, Manifest Sons Of God, New Apostolic
Reformation. This list is by no means complete.
If you don't recognize the hymns mentioned perhaps it would
be worth your time to go back and read them, then compare
what they say to the new doctrines.

Almost
Saved
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
“To be almost saved is to be totally lost.”
– Adrian Rogers
There are many so-called
“Christians” today who are clearly “almost saved” by their
testimonies and/or actions.But
to be “almost saved” is to be completely lost.A
person who is drowning and almost saved drowns.A woman who is almost pregnant is not
pregnant.King Agrippa said, “You are almost persuading me to
be a Christian (Acts 26:28)” but being almost persuaded is
not enough to be saved.
The word
“almost” means “very nearly”, “not quite.” In light of this
we may conclude that to come close to the target, or
“almost” hit it, means to completely miss the mark. (Shalem Evangelical Church Bush Hall

"Silence
the
noise of your songs"
by Sandy Simpson, 5/26/19
Amos 5:21-27 “I hate, I reject your festivals,
nor do I delight in your solemn assemblies. “Even though
you offer up to Me burnt offerings and your grain offerings, I
will not accept them; and I will not even look at the peace
offerings of your fatlings. “Take away from Me the noise of
your songs; I will not even listen to the sound of your harps.
“But let justice roll down like waters and righteousness like
an ever-flowing stream. Did you present Me with sacrifices and
grain offerings in the wilderness for forty years, O house of
Israel? You also carried along Sikkuth your king and Kiyyun,
your images, the star of your gods which you made for
yourselves. Therefore, I will make you go into exile beyond
Damascus,” says the Lord, whose name is the God of hosts. When
I first reread this passage in Amos, a few things struck
me. First of all the Lord is bringing judgment on Israel
for carrying on religious ceremony without true dedication to
the Lord. They sing songs and present their offerings
while harboring idols. I was reminded of how the Lord
must view the heretical apostate mega church celebrations of
today. There is a lot of pomp and circumstance, yet
little or no obedience to the Word of God. The Lord does
not look favorably upon worship of that type, no matter the
hype, no matter the noise, no matter the show. He
actually “hates” it.

How To Find A Good Church
by Sandy Simpson, 2003
Here’s how to find a good church. What
you need to find is a church that not only has orthodox
doctrinal statements but teaches, both explicitly and
implicitly, in line with the core doctrines of the
Faith. These are Bible-believing Christ-centered
churches that are balanced in their theology. Be sure to
test all churches before you become involved. It is
acceptable to get involved with a house church or Bible study
as long as there is someone who has the gift of teaching there
to lead the study of God’s Word.
Hebrews 10:25 not forsaking our own assembling
together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one
another; and all the more as you see the day drawing near.
The Christian life is not one to be lived
alone. Trust me; I have sympathy for those who have been
spiritually injured by false churches, false prophets, false
teachers and false apostles. It is often a long road
back from the diaprax of heresy. But to undo the
brainwashing you will need help, especially from those who are
already ahead of you on your journey back. The first
century church was known for the following:
Acts 2:42 They were continually devoting
themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the
breaking of bread and to prayer.
This is a good gauge to tell if you are
involved in an effective assembly of believers, no matter how
small. Remember that the first century churches were in
homes. In my experience smaller churches are much better
at doing the above and more. Avoid mega churches.

A Short History of
Dominionism
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
In order to understand where the
modern fusion called “Dominioism”
comes from, I want to first give you definitions of
Kingdom Now, Dominionism
and Reconstructionism.
Dominionism is sparsely defined as follows:
“Dominion
Theology (also known as Dominionism)
is a group of Christian political ideologies that seek
to institute a nation governed by Christians based on
their personal understandings of biblical law. Extents
of rule and ways of achieving governing authority are
varied. For example, Dominion Theology can include theonomy, but does
not necessarily involve advocating Mosaic law as the
basis of government. The label is applied primarily
toward groups of Protestants in the United States.” [1]
It is more closely
defined this way:
“Dominionism, or Christian Dominionism is a
term coined by social scientists and popularized by
journalists to refer to a subset of American
Christianity that is conservative, politically active,
and believes that Christians should, and eventually
will, take control of the government. The term is
sometimes used as a “catch-all” by bloggers to describe
any politically active Christian, but not every
conservative, politically minded Christian is a Dominionist.
Christian Dominionists
believe that God desires Christians to rise to power
through civil systems so that His Word might then govern
the nation. The belief that “America is a Christian
nation” is sometimes called “soft dominionism”; the idea that God
wants only Christians to hold government office and run
the country according to biblical law is called
“hard dominionism.” [2]
“Hard Dominioism” as it is called in the
above definition, is what C. Peter Wagner (deceased) of
the New Apostolic Reformation (a term he coined) have been
advocating, following the teachings of the New Order of
the Latter Rain and Reformed Theology “Reconstructionism”.

Maturity Training
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Heb. 5:14 But
solid food is for the MATURE, who by constant use have
trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.
At the core of maturity in Christ is the issue
of training to be able to distinguish between good and
evil, right and wrong. But in today’s churches this
issue has not only been downplayed, but actually swept
aside.
I run a website and get hundreds of emails
every week. Since the website deals with apologetics
against false teachers and false prophets, about half
the email I receive is blasting me for even bringing up
the issue. These emails are from “Christians” who claim
I am not “anointed”, don’t understand the work of the
Holy Spirit, etc. I am forced to remind them of Hebrews
5 and Ephesians 4 and the biblical definition of
maturity in Christ. Maturity is not defined as following
dynamic speakers, running after people who claim the
ability to perform signs and wonders, those with wealth,
charismatic teachers with large numbers of followers,
those with name recognition, and prophets who make wild
prophecies. It is defined simply as training ourselves
to know the difference between good and evil.
Where do Christians get solid food? From
voices in their heads, intuition, imaginations, flights
of fancy, signs, wonders? No. Solid food is consumed by
feeding on the meat of the written Word of God.

The Use of Invective
in Apologetics
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
This article is about the use of invective
while attempting to do apologetics or teaching
discernment. Invective is defined as a noun: insulting,
abusive, or highly critical language ie. "he let out a stream
of invective". I admit to using invective at times in
the past. My goal is to stop that practice and focus on
the facts, not attack an individual’s ability to
comprehend.
In the case of Christians, the first thing to
consider when doing apologetics is our mandate to reconcile
people to Christ, no matter who they are.
2 Cor. 5:18-21 Now all these things are from
God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us
the ministry of reconciliation, namely, that God was in
Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their
trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word
of reconciliation. Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ,
as though God were making an appeal through us; we beg you
on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. He made Him who
knew no sin to be sin on our behalf so that we might become
the righteousness of God in Him.

Ten Questions
For those who Claim the "Supreme Beings" of the Nations are
the True God
by Sandy Simpson
This booklet is taken from this
article!
I have some questions for those of the World
Christian Gathering of Indigenous People (WCGIP) adherents
such as Don Richardson, Daniel Kikawa,
Richard Twiss
(deceased), Terry LeBlanc, Danny Lehman, Aloha KeAkua,
YWAM as well as many in the Emergent Church (EC) ... the
questions arise from their claim that the "supreme beings"
of the nations are all the True God, YHWH, the God of
Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. You can read more on this
subject in our book "Idolatry In Their Hearts"
or in the WCGIP
section of my site.
My
main question for them is this: When did ANY of the
Patriarchs and Prophets in the Old Testament and the
Apostles or Jesus Christ in the New Testament EVER claim
that the "supreme beings" of the nations were Elohim/YHWH, the one True God?

Real Revival
by Sandy Simpson

Acts 3:19 Therefore repent and return,
so that your sins may be wiped away, in order that times
of refreshing may come from the presence of the
Lord;
There has been so much hype of "revival" in
our modern day that it is easy to forget the true biblical
criteria and definition of revival. Revival cannot be
brought about by signs and wonders or "laying" on of hands
to transfer apostolic or prophetic "anointings". In fact
there is no such thing in the Bible.The Biblical criterion
for revival has, as a precondition, repentance. The word
"refreshing" is also defined as "revive".

Occult Practices in the
Churches
How the occult has been fully
integrated into many Christian lives and fellowships
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
The Bible is quite clear about occult
practices.Neither Israel
nor the Church is to have anything to do with the way the
world tries to gain secret knowledge.The
Gnostics were and are known for promoting new revelation
that is either loosely tied to Scripture taken out ofcontext
or not at all.The
Israelites seeking information from the dead or in omens
were judged harshly by the Lord who had warned them numerous
times to stay away from that stuff.
Yet due to the influences of
heretical teachers in the New Apostolic Reformation, Word of
Faith, Emergent Church, and
the New Age many have been successful in getting lots of
churches and denominations into occult practices that have
been thinly disguised as “Christian"? Many
of those who follow these people, I’m sure, have no idea how far they have strayed
into the occult.
First I want to give the
dictionary definitions and then Biblical warnings against
these practices.Then I
will give examples in the churches taken mainly from
the ElijahList
e-newsletter.
List of Practices Detestable To God
Deuteronomy 18:9-12 “When you
enter the land which the Lord your God gives you, you
shall not learn to imitate the detestable things of those
nations. There shall not be found among you anyone who
makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, one
who uses divination, one who practices witchcraft, or
one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer, or one who
casts a spell, or a medium, or a spiritist, or one who calls up the
dead. For whoever does these things is detestable to
the Lord; and because
of these detestable things
the Lord your God will drive them out before you.
Isaiah 8:19 When they say
to you, “Consult the mediums and the spiritists who whisper and
mutter," should not a peopleconsult their God?Should they consult the dead on behalf of the
living?
Using the above list from
Deuteronomy and Isaiah, let’s take a look at each
individual practice.

New
Important Book!
Dominionism!
How Unbiblical Action Can Change The
Churches
by Dr. Orrel Steinkamp & Sandy
Simpson
Preface
By Sandy Simpson
The title and cover art of this work are a
play off of the book by C. Peter Wagner entitled “"Dominion!
How Kingdom Action Can Change The World". In contrast
to this specious claim we have titled this book
“Dominionism! How Unbiblical Action Can Change The
Churches". We think that is far more in keeping with
what we will present in this series of articles and essays
on the subject of Kingdom Now/Dominionism.
Indeed, many churches have already been
changed by accepting the false teachings that constitute
Dominionism. This started decades ago under Reformed
Reconstrucionism and Latter Rain theology, but even before
that in the Roman Catholic Church (RCC). The attempt
of Constantine to protect Christians from being persecuted,
since he claimed he had become one of them, turned out to
begin a journey in syncretism and Dominion. It wasn’t
long before corrupt church officials began to try to seize
power all over Europe and beyond as the “Holy Roman
Empire". The Reformation itself was a reaction to the
lengths to which the RCC had gone to take control over the
Scriptures, the nations, the kingdoms, and the people for
financial gain. They sold indulgences, promising those
who came up with enough money a much shorter time in
Purgatory. Those same ploys are being used today on
what has been loosely called “Christian television" by the
sale of trinkets and promises of healing, financial gain and
even salvation.
These ideas all coalesce in
Dominionism. If it were true that the Church needs to
take over the planet, then we would be seeing the
unstoppable plans of God’s physical Kingdom unfolding.
But we do not. All we see are failed prophecies, empty
edicts and declarations coming from false apostles and false
prophets. They love to fool Christians with talk of
the “kingdom" when it is clear they are talking about a
different “kingdom"; a Kingdom Now not a Kingdom come.
Jesus taught us to pray: “Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done
on earth as it is in heaven". The implication is that
we are to be about building His spiritual Kingdom while
praying for and expecting His physical Kingdom to
come. The only way we can do that is to continue in
the Great Commission till He comes, not attempt to rule
where God has not given the Church the authority to
rule. Jesus will do that when He returns. If we go off
on the tangent the Dominionists want us to go, we will not
only miss out on the blessings of His Kingdom to come, but
may well be deserving of judgment.

Seeds, Soil & Fruit

Bad seeds from a bad tree yield bad fruit.
Matt. 13:38-39 The field is the world,
and the good seed stands for the sons of the kingdom. The
weeds are the sons of the evil one, and the enemy who sows
them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age,
and the harvesters are angels.
Matthew 7:17 Likewise every good tree
bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit.
Original sin is the bad seed in everyone.
We all start with a bad seed.
Jer. 17:9 The heart is deceitful
above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand
it?
Rom. 3:23 for all have sinned
and fall short of the glory of God,
Rom. 5:12 Therefore, just as sin
entered the world through one man, and death through sin,
and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned
We need to have the bad seed destroyed and
replaced with good seed.
Gal. 5:24 Those who belong to Christ
Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its
passions and desires.
Rom. 6:6 For we know that our old
self was crucified with him so that the body of sin might
be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves
to sin
1 Pet. 1:23 For you have been born
again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable,
through the living and enduring word of God.
The good seed is the Word, the Gospel.
Luke 8:11 "This is the meaning of the
parable: The seed is the word of God.
1 John 3:9 No one who is born of God
will continue to sin, because God's seed remains in him;
he cannot go on sinning, because he has been born of God.
Bad seeds are from the enemy and are full of
false doctrine and a false gospel.
Matt. 13:38-39 The field is the world,

Will the Real Blasphemers Please
Stand Up?
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
This subject is one so serious that I do it
with great fear and trepidation. Nonetheless, because I get
so many e-mails accusing me and other Bereans of blasphemy,
among other serious charges, I felt it was necessary to
clear up some issues on this topic. Because of my stand for
the truth of God's Word juxtaposed against all the false
teaching that is going on today, I think it is important to
do a quick study on what blasphemy is actually all about
from a biblical standpoint. There are many references
to blasphemy in the Bible and from them we can find out how
and why that term was used.
You will see that the word "blasphemy" in the
Scriptures is the very definition of what the false teachers
and false prophets are doing today!

"Glitter Christians"
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Glitter Christians.
This is a name I came up with for people
attending and teaching at Oral Roberts University in the
70s. Even back then I had come to realize that their
way of representing Christianity was not in line with the
Scriptures. At that time I didn’t know that Oral
Roberts was carrying on the Word of Faith traditions of New
Thought practitioners such as Kenneth Hagin, Kenneth
Copeland, Essex Kenyan, Norman Vincent Peale, Robert
Schuler, and many other false teachers of the time.
Though I didn’t know anything about Word of Faith or New
Thought then I knew that the way they were representing
Christianity was just not right somehow. Their desire
to portray Christians as rich, beautiful, healthy, perfect,
and virtually sinless (holiness) went directly against the
example of Jesus, the Apostles and the early church.

has sprung here in North Carolina. One of the first trees to
bloom is the Bradford Pear. I began to notice how that tree
has proliferated almost everywhere and then my wife looked
up the information on this tree on the web. As she began to
read the facts about this tree and its proliferation I began
to see an allegorical parallel to what is going on in much
of Christendom. But before I get into what the Bradford Pear
can show us about the churches, I need to present the facts
about the tree.

The Lord's Prayer, Our Prayer
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Matt.
6:9-13 This, then, is how you should pray: "Our
Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom
come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our debts, as
we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into
temptation, but deliver us from the evil one."
This model prayer
that Jesus taught the disciples to pray contains many
important precepts. It should probably be called "The
Disciple's Prayer". It starts with a very important
concept in the first verse.

The new Universalists are not as vocal

The future of apologetics and
discernment ministries
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
I admit that I am very
skeptical about the future of discernment and apologetics
ministries. I don't see the next generation coming up to
replace those who have stood for the truth for so long.
Fortunately many apologists have gone to be with the Lord
but who will replace them? I don't see replacements coming
up who will take the place of those who have been fighting
the fight the years. I run a web site where I collect
articles and materials from all over the world and present
them in a sort of Reader's Digest format so that people can
come to one place to get the latest information on heresies
in the churches as well as research past ones. What I've
seen in the last couple of years is that the production of
regular materials is declining to the point where it's
becoming difficult to find one article for my site to post
every day. Of course I write my own articles but don't have
enough time to write an article on a daily basis. I am very
concerned because of the tsunami of false ideas from the
enemy in the churches. At the same time, unfortunately, I
see a lot of younger people who don't even recognize anymore
that something is wrong.

Church History & The Core
Doctrines
by Sandy Simpson
This 4-DVD set is a combination of a condensed
study on Church History and the Discernment Toolkit series which
deals with the core doctrines of the Church and how to use them
to discern error. The Church History DVD takes a different
approach to Church History in that it does not celebrate the
Catholic Church but rather exposes it as false
Christianity. It covers World religions, false
Christianity and finally a study of the true remnant Church
through history following the story of the many martyrs who
stood up for true Biblical faith.

The "Weight of Glory"
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
2 Corinthians 4:17 For our light affliction,
which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more
exceeding and eternal weight of glory; (KJV)
This is both an incredible source of hope
for Christians who are downtrodden, and a source of
escalating heresy in many churches.It is critical that we
understand what Paul was talking about when he wrote the
phrase “weight of glory".Jacob Prasch has repeated this
phrase in his teachings over the years … “A text, out of
context, in isolation from co-text is always a pre-text."A
huge problem today is that individuals and movements tend to
yank verses out of their context and build a cult of heresy
around them.This is called eisegesis or plugging your own
ideas into the Scriptures instead of exegesis, gaining
understanding and interpretation of the Bible by studying it
in context and in the scope of the whole written Word.

Did God Put "Eternity In Their Hearts"
or "The World In Their Hearts"?
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
In the introduction to Mike Oppenheimer's
and my book "Idolatry In Thier Hearts" I exposed the fact
that Don Richardson pulled the phrase "Eternity In Thier
Hearts" to use as his book title from it's context in Ecc.
3:11. He did this to support his thesis, which
actually contradicts the second part of that verse, where it
states that man cannot fathom what God has done. Richardson,
rather, sets forth what has become the foundation for the
false teachings of the WCGIP, YWAM, a number of Bible
translation societies and the Emerging Church ... the
propostion that men from Gentile cultures have always been
seeking God and that Gentile cultures were already
worshipping the true God before missionaries came with the
Gospel.
But as I further investigated this verse I
found that Richardson even ignored the true meaning of the
FIRST half of the verse in favor of a few translations that
use the phrase "eternity in their hearts".

Christians who “turn away�?
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Jeremiah 3:10-11 And yet for all this
her treacherous sister Judah hath not turned unto me with her
whole heart, but feignedly, saith the LORD. And the LORD said
unto me, “The backsliding Israel hath justified herself more
than treacherous Judah." (KJV) Israel had turned away from the
Lord and had gone after the gods of Canaan, namely
Baal and Asherah. Because Israel had
prostituted herself with false gods in worshipping the
polytheistic gods that started at Babel, God had declared He
was divorcing Israel and would send them into exile until they
again returned to the true God. But Judah prided itself in
doing what God had commended as they had Jerusalem and the
Temple. They disdained Israel for setting up altars to
Baal and Asherah poles on high hills. Yet God was not
fooled by Judah’s pretence. In the KJV it says they were
not worshipping God with their whole heart but
“feignedly".

Prophets for profit
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
2 Cor. 2:17 Unlike so many, we do not peddle
the word of God for profit. On the contrary, in Christ we
speak before God with sincerity, as those sent from God.
There are many false teachers on TV these days
who peddle the word of God for profit. They make
promises of healing that do not come true by claiming if they
are given a financial gift the person will receive healing and
riches. When what they promised does not happen the
person is blamed that they did not have enough faith. This
often destroys the faith of people who fall into the traps of
these snake oil salesmen. I have no problem with people
charging for their materials if they cost to be produced, even
though it is hoped that when a person cannot afford to pay for
books and DVDs they will receive them free of charge.
But the charges levied on people for conferences and speaking
engagements is often excessive. A minister of God can
ask for support and deserves it if they are being diligent in
their study and proclamation of the Word. But
experiences and feelings often come with a price today and
that is not right.

"Mistake" or "Sin"?
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Today we often hear the word "mistake"
coming from pulpits, and especially in defense of false
teaching and false prophesy. "Cut him some
slack! He just made some mistakes". "We all make
mistakes, so don't judge lest you be judged." We even
hear the word "mistakes" being substituted for the word
"sin" in many presentations of what I have termed "Gospel
Lite" today. So is it proper to substitute the word
"mistake" for the word "sin"? We'll look at the
problem of one word "mistakenly" being used for the
other.

Upgrade
Your Old Hymns For The New Paradigm!
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
HUMOR: Time for a rewrite of the old
hymns. In this day and age of Third Wave revival
movements and Word-Faith dominion, the old hymns just aren't
cutting it anymore. Not only are they old fashioned
musically, but the lyrics are, for the most part,
particularly depressing. They talk of sin, death,
repentance, the cross, the blood of Jesus and a whole host
of other disgusting subjects. There are also too many
lyrics in them, frankly, which takes away from the "worship"
atmosphere. Repetitiveness is what we need, not dead
doctrinal concepts. The old hymns are just too biblical.
Give us a beat to move our feet, not concepts to move our
hearts and minds!
Here is a list of some hymns that could be
"upgraded" to meet the criteria of the Third Wave,
Word-Faith, Latter Rain, Manifest Sons Of God, New Apostolic
Reformation. This list is by no means complete.
If you don't recognize the hymns mentioned perhaps it would
be worth your time to go back and read them, then compare
what they say to the new doctrines.

Almost
Saved
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
“To be almost saved is to be totally lost.”
– Adrian Rogers
There are many so-called
“Christians” today who are clearly “almost saved” by their
testimonies and/or actions.But
to be “almost saved” is to be completely lost.A
person who is drowning and almost saved drowns.A woman who is almost pregnant is not
pregnant.King Agrippa said, “You are almost persuading me to
be a Christian (Acts 26:28)” but being almost persuaded is
not enough to be saved.
The word
“almost” means “very nearly”, “not quite.” In light of this
we may conclude that to come close to the target, or
“almost” hit it, means to completely miss the mark. (Shalem Evangelical Church Bush Hall
Yard Gap, St. Michael)

"Silence
the
noise of your songs"
by Sandy Simpson, 5/26/19
Amos 5:21-27 “I hate, I reject your festivals,
nor do I delight in your solemn assemblies. “Even though
you offer up to Me burnt offerings and your grain offerings, I
will not accept them; and I will not even look at the peace
offerings of your fatlings. “Take away from Me the noise of
your songs; I will not even listen to the sound of your harps.
“But let justice roll down like waters and righteousness like
an ever-flowing stream. Did you present Me with sacrifices and
grain offerings in the wilderness for forty years, O house of
Israel? You also carried along Sikkuth your king and Kiyyun,
your images, the star of your gods which you made for
yourselves. Therefore, I will make you go into exile beyond
Damascus,” says the Lord, whose name is the God of hosts. When
I first reread this passage in Amos, a few things struck
me. First of all the Lord is bringing judgment on Israel
for carrying on religious ceremony without true dedication to
the Lord. They sing songs and present their offerings
while harboring idols. I was reminded of how the Lord
must view the heretical apostate mega church celebrations of
today. There is a lot of pomp and circumstance, yet
little or no obedience to the Word of God. The Lord does
not look favorably upon worship of that type, no matter the
hype, no matter the noise, no matter the show. He
actually “hates” it.

How To Find A Good Church
by Sandy Simpson, 2003
Here’s how to find a good church. What
you need to find is a church that not only has orthodox
doctrinal statements but teaches, both explicitly and
implicitly, in line with the core doctrines of the
Faith. These are Bible-believing Christ-centered
churches that are balanced in their theology. Be sure to
test all churches before you become involved. It is
acceptable to get involved with a house church or Bible study
as long as there is someone who has the gift of teaching there
to lead the study of God’s Word.
Hebrews 10:25 not forsaking our own assembling
together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one
another; and all the more as you see the day drawing near.
The Christian life is not one to be lived
alone. Trust me; I have sympathy for those who have been
spiritually injured by false churches, false prophets, false
teachers and false apostles. It is often a long road
back from the diaprax of heresy. But to undo the
brainwashing you will need help, especially from those who are
already ahead of you on your journey back. The first
century church was known for the following:
Acts 2:42 They were continually devoting
themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the
breaking of bread and to prayer.
This is a good gauge to tell if you are
involved in an effective assembly of believers, no matter how
small. Remember that the first century churches were in
homes. In my experience smaller churches are much better
at doing the above and more. Avoid mega churches.

A Short History of
Dominionism
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
In order to understand where the
modern fusion called “Dominioism”
comes from, I want to first give you definitions of
Kingdom Now, Dominionism
and Reconstructionism.
Dominionism is sparsely defined as follows:
“Dominion
Theology (also known as Dominionism)
is a group of Christian political ideologies that seek
to institute a nation governed by Christians based on
their personal understandings of biblical law. Extents
of rule and ways of achieving governing authority are
varied. For example, Dominion Theology can include theonomy, but does
not necessarily involve advocating Mosaic law as the
basis of government. The label is applied primarily
toward groups of Protestants in the United States.” [1]
It is more closely
defined this way:
“Dominionism, or Christian Dominionism is a
term coined by social scientists and popularized by
journalists to refer to a subset of American
Christianity that is conservative, politically active,
and believes that Christians should, and eventually
will, take control of the government. The term is
sometimes used as a “catch-all” by bloggers to describe
any politically active Christian, but not every
conservative, politically minded Christian is a Dominionist.
Christian Dominionists
believe that God desires Christians to rise to power
through civil systems so that His Word might then govern
the nation. The belief that “America is a Christian
nation” is sometimes called “soft dominionism”; the idea that God
wants only Christians to hold government office and run
the country according to biblical law is called
“hard dominionism.” [2]
“Hard Dominioism” as it is called in the
above definition, is what C. Peter Wagner (deceased) of
the New Apostolic Reformation (a term he coined) have been
advocating, following the teachings of the New Order of
the Latter Rain and Reformed Theology “Reconstructionism”.

Maturity Training
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Heb. 5:14 But
solid food is for the MATURE, who by constant use have
trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.
At the core of maturity in Christ is the issue
of training to be able to distinguish between good and
evil, right and wrong. But in today’s churches this
issue has not only been downplayed, but actually swept
aside.
I run a website and get hundreds of emails
every week. Since the website deals with apologetics
against false teachers and false prophets, about half
the email I receive is blasting me for even bringing up
the issue. These emails are from “Christians” who claim
I am not “anointed”, don’t understand the work of the
Holy Spirit, etc. I am forced to remind them of Hebrews
5 and Ephesians 4 and the biblical definition of
maturity in Christ. Maturity is not defined as following
dynamic speakers, running after people who claim the
ability to perform signs and wonders, those with wealth,
charismatic teachers with large numbers of followers,
those with name recognition, and prophets who make wild
prophecies. It is defined simply as training ourselves
to know the difference between good and evil.
Where do Christians get solid food? From
voices in their heads, intuition, imaginations, flights
of fancy, signs, wonders? No. Solid food is consumed by
feeding on the meat of the written Word of God.

The Use of Invective
in Apologetics
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
This article is about the use of invective
while attempting to do apologetics or teaching
discernment. Invective is defined as a noun: insulting,
abusive, or highly critical language ie. "he let out a stream
of invective". I admit to using invective at times in
the past. My goal is to stop that practice and focus on
the facts, not attack an individual’s ability to
comprehend.
In the case of Christians, the first thing to
consider when doing apologetics is our mandate to reconcile
people to Christ, no matter who they are.
2 Cor. 5:18-21 Now all these things are from
God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us
the ministry of reconciliation, namely, that God was in
Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their
trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word
of reconciliation. Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ,
as though God were making an appeal through us; we beg you
on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. He made Him who
knew no sin to be sin on our behalf so that we might become
the righteousness of God in Him.

Ten Questions
For those who Claim the "Supreme Beings" of the Nations are
the True God
by Sandy Simpson
This booklet is taken from this

I have some questions for those of the World
Christian Gathering of Indigenous People (WCGIP) adherents
such as Don Richardson, Daniel Kikawa,
Richard Twiss
(deceased), Terry LeBlanc, Danny Lehman, Aloha KeAkua,
YWAM as well as many in the Emergent Church (EC) ... the
questions arise from their claim that the "supreme beings"
of the nations are all the True God, YHWH, the God of
Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. You can read more on this
subject in our book "Idolatry In Their Hearts"
or in the WCGIP
section of my site.
My
main question for them is this: When did ANY of the
Patriarchs and Prophets in the Old Testament and the
Apostles or Jesus Christ in the New Testament EVER claim
that the "supreme beings" of the nations were Elohim/YHWH, the one True God?

by Sandy Simpson

Acts 3:19 Therefore repent and return,
so that your sins may be wiped away, in order that times
of refreshing may come from the presence of the
Lord;
There has been so much hype of "revival" in
our modern day that it is easy to forget the true biblical
criteria and definition of revival. Revival cannot be
brought about by signs and wonders or "laying" on of hands
to transfer apostolic or prophetic "anointings". In fact
there is no such thing in the Bible.The Biblical criterion
for revival has, as a precondition, repentance. The word
"refreshing" is also defined as "revive".

Occult Practices in the
Churches
How the occult has been fully
integrated into many Christian lives and fellowships
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
The Bible is quite clear about occult
practices.Neither Israel
nor the Church is to have anything to do with the way the
world tries to gain secret knowledge.The
Gnostics were and are known for promoting new revelation
that is either loosely tied to Scripture taken out ofcontext
or not at all.The
Israelites seeking information from the dead or in omens
were judged harshly by the Lord who had warned them numerous
times to stay away from that stuff.
Yet due to the influences of
heretical teachers in the New Apostolic Reformation, Word of
Faith, Emergent Church, and
the New Age many have been successful in getting lots of
churches and denominations into occult practices that have
been thinly disguised as “Christian"? Many
of those who follow these people, I’m sure, have no idea how far they have strayed
into the occult.
First I want to give the
dictionary definitions and then Biblical warnings against
these practices.Then I
will give examples in the churches taken mainly from
the ElijahList
e-newsletter.
List of Practices Detestable To God
Deuteronomy 18:9-12 “When you
enter the land which the Lord your God gives you, you
shall not learn to imitate the detestable things of those
nations. There shall not be found among you anyone who
makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, one
who uses divination, one who practices witchcraft, or
one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer, or one who
casts a spell, or a medium, or a spiritist, or one who calls up the
dead. For whoever does these things is detestable to
the Lord; and because
of these detestable things
the Lord your God will drive them out before you.
Isaiah 8:19 When they say
to you, “Consult the mediums and the spiritists who whisper and
mutter," should not a peopleconsult their God?Should they consult the dead on behalf of the
living?
Using the above list from
Deuteronomy and Isaiah, let’s take a look at each
individual practice.

New
Important Book!
Dominionism!
How Unbiblical Action Can Change The
Churches
by Dr. Orrel Steinkamp & Sandy
Simpson
Preface
By Sandy Simpson
The title and cover art of this work are a
play off of the book by C. Peter Wagner entitled “"Dominion!
How Kingdom Action Can Change The World". In contrast
to this specious claim we have titled this book
“Dominionism! How Unbiblical Action Can Change The
Churches". We think that is far more in keeping with
what we will present in this series of articles and essays
on the subject of Kingdom Now/Dominionism.
Indeed, many churches have already been
changed by accepting the false teachings that constitute
Dominionism. This started decades ago under Reformed
Reconstrucionism and Latter Rain theology, but even before
that in the Roman Catholic Church (RCC). The attempt
of Constantine to protect Christians from being persecuted,
since he claimed he had become one of them, turned out to
begin a journey in syncretism and Dominion. It wasn’t
long before corrupt church officials began to try to seize
power all over Europe and beyond as the “Holy Roman
Empire". The Reformation itself was a reaction to the
lengths to which the RCC had gone to take control over the
Scriptures, the nations, the kingdoms, and the people for
financial gain. They sold indulgences, promising those
who came up with enough money a much shorter time in
Purgatory. Those same ploys are being used today on
what has been loosely called “Christian television" by the
sale of trinkets and promises of healing, financial gain and
even salvation.
These ideas all coalesce in
Dominionism. If it were true that the Church needs to
take over the planet, then we would be seeing the
unstoppable plans of God’s physical Kingdom unfolding.
But we do not. All we see are failed prophecies, empty
edicts and declarations coming from false apostles and false
prophets. They love to fool Christians with talk of
the “kingdom" when it is clear they are talking about a
different “kingdom"; a Kingdom Now not a Kingdom come.
Jesus taught us to pray: “Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done
on earth as it is in heaven". The implication is that
we are to be about building His spiritual Kingdom while
praying for and expecting His physical Kingdom to
come. The only way we can do that is to continue in
the Great Commission till He comes, not attempt to rule
where God has not given the Church the authority to
rule. Jesus will do that when He returns. If we go off
on the tangent the Dominionists want us to go, we will not
only miss out on the blessings of His Kingdom to come, but
may well be deserving of judgment.

Seeds, Soil & Fruit
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this

Bad seeds from a bad tree yield bad fruit.
Matt. 13:38-39 The field is the world,
and the good seed stands for the sons of the kingdom. The
weeds are the sons of the evil one, and the enemy who sows
them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age,
and the harvesters are angels.
Matthew 7:17 Likewise every good tree
bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit.
Original sin is the bad seed in everyone.
We all start with a bad seed.
Jer. 17:9 The heart is deceitful
above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand
it?
Rom. 3:23 for all have sinned and
fall short of the glory of God,
Rom. 5:12 Therefore, just as sin entered
the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this
way death came to all men, because all sinned
We need to have the bad seed destroyed and
replaced with good seed.
Gal. 5:24 Those who belong to Christ
Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its

continue to sin, because God's seed remains in him; he
cannot go on sinning, because he has been born of God.
Bad seeds are from the enemy and are full of
false doctrine and a false gospel.
Matt. 13:38-39 The field is the world,

weeds are the sons of the evil one, and the enemy who sows
them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age,

Will the Real Blasphemers Please Stand
Up?
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
This subject is one so serious that I do it
with great fear and trepidation. Nonetheless, because I get so
many e-mails accusing me and other Bereans of blasphemy, among
other serious charges, I felt it was necessary to clear up
some issues on this topic. Because of my stand for the truth
of God's Word juxtaposed against all the false teaching that
is going on today, I think it is important to do a quick study
on what blasphemy is actually all about from a biblical
standpoint. There are many references to blasphemy in
the Bible and from them we can find out how and why that term
was used.
You will see that the word "blasphemy" in the
Scriptures is the very definition of what the false teachers
and false prophets are doing today!

"Glitter Christians"
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Glitter Christians.
This is a name I came up with for people
attending and teaching at Oral Roberts University in the
70s. Even back then I had come to realize that their way
of representing Christianity was not in line with the
Scriptures. At that time I didn’t know that Oral Roberts
was carrying on the Word of Faith traditions of New Thought
practitioners such as Kenneth Hagin, Kenneth Copeland, Essex
Kenyan, Norman Vincent Peale, Robert Schuler, and many other
false teachers of the time. Though I didn’t know
anything about Word of Faith or New Thought then I knew that
the way they were representing Christianity was just not right
somehow. Their desire to portray Christians as rich,
beautiful, healthy, perfect, and virtually sinless (holiness)
went directly against the example of Jesus, the Apostles and
the early church.

Screwtape Legacy

The book by C.S. Lewis called "Screwtape
Letters" was a clever idea in exposing a number of tactics of
the enemy. Those principles are still at work today in

Bradford Pear Christianity

I was driving along and noticing that spring
has sprung here in North Carolina. One of the first trees to
bloom is the Bradford Pear. I began to notice how that tree
has proliferated almost everywhere and then my wife looked up
the information on this tree on the web. As she began to read
the facts about this tree and its proliferation I began to see
an allegorical parallel to what is going on in much of
Christendom. But before I get into what the Bradford Pear can
show us about the churches, I need to present the facts about
the tree.

have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into
temptation, but deliver us from the evil one."
This model prayer

The future of apologetics and
discernment ministries
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
I admit that I am very
skeptical about the future of discernment and apologetics
ministries. I don't see the next generation coming up to
replace those who have stood for the truth for so long.
Fortunately many apologists have gone to be with the Lord but
who will replace them? I don't see replacements coming up who
will take the place of those who have been fighting the fight
the years. I run a web site where I collect articles and
materials from all over the world and present them in a sort
of Reader's Digest format so that people can come to one place
to get the latest information on heresies in the churches as
well as research past ones. What I've seen in the last couple
of years is that the production of regular materials is
declining to the point where it's becoming difficult to find
one article for my site to post every day. Of course I write
my own articles but don't have enough time to write an article
on a daily basis. I am very concerned because of the tsunami
of false ideas from the enemy in the churches. At the same
time, unfortunately, I see a lot of younger people who don't
even recognize anymore that something is wrong.

Church History & The Core
Doctrines
by Sandy Simpson
This 4-DVD set is a combination of a condensed
study on Church History and the Discernment Toolkit series which
deals with the core doctrines of the Church and how to use them
to discern error. The Church History DVD takes a different
approach to Church History in that it does not celebrate the
Catholic Church but rather exposes it as false
Christianity. It covers World religions, false
Christianity and finally a study of the true remnant Church
through history following the story of the many martyrs who
stood up for true Biblical faith.

The "Weight of Glory"
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
2 Corinthians 4:17 For our light affliction,
which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more
exceeding and eternal weight of glory; (KJV)
This is both an incredible source of hope
for Christians who are downtrodden, and a source of
escalating heresy in many churches.It is critical that we
understand what Paul was talking about when he wrote the
phrase “weight of glory".Jacob Prasch has repeated this
phrase in his teachings over the years … “A text, out of
context, in isolation from co-text is always a pre-text."A
huge problem today is that individuals and movements tend to
yank verses out of their context and build a cult of heresy
around them.This is called eisegesis or plugging your own
ideas into the Scriptures instead of exegesis, gaining
understanding and interpretation of the Bible by studying it
in context and in the scope of the whole written Word.

Did God Put "Eternity In Their Hearts"
or "The World In Their Hearts"?
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
In the introduction to Mike Oppenheimer's
and my book "Idolatry In Thier Hearts" I exposed the fact
that Don Richardson pulled the phrase "Eternity In Thier
Hearts" to use as his book title from it's context in Ecc.
3:11. He did this to support his thesis, which
actually contradicts the second part of that verse, where it
states that man cannot fathom what God has done. Richardson,
rather, sets forth what has become the foundation for the
false teachings of the WCGIP, YWAM, a number of Bible
translation societies and the Emerging Church ... the
propostion that men from Gentile cultures have always been
seeking God and that Gentile cultures were already
worshipping the true God before missionaries came with the
Gospel.
But as I further investigated this verse I
found that Richardson even ignored the true meaning of the
FIRST half of the verse in favor of a few translations that
use the phrase "eternity in their hearts".

Christians who “turn away�?
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Jeremiah 3:10-11 And yet for all this
her treacherous sister Judah hath not turned unto me with her
whole heart, but feignedly, saith the LORD. And the LORD said
unto me, “The backsliding Israel hath justified herself more
than treacherous Judah." (KJV) Israel had turned away from the
Lord and had gone after the gods of Canaan, namely
Baal and Asherah. Because Israel had
prostituted herself with false gods in worshipping the
polytheistic gods that started at Babel, God had declared He
was divorcing Israel and would send them into exile until they
again returned to the true God. But Judah prided itself in
doing what God had commended as they had Jerusalem and the
Temple. They disdained Israel for setting up altars to
Baal and Asherah poles on high hills. Yet God was not
fooled by Judah’s pretence. In the KJV it says they were
not worshipping God with their whole heart but
“feignedly".

Prophets for profit
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
2 Cor. 2:17 Unlike so many, we do not peddle
the word of God for profit. On the contrary, in Christ we
speak before God with sincerity, as those sent from God.
There are many false teachers on TV these days
who peddle the word of God for profit. They make
promises of healing that do not come true by claiming if they
are given a financial gift the person will receive healing and
riches. When what they promised does not happen the
person is blamed that they did not have enough faith. This
often destroys the faith of people who fall into the traps of
these snake oil salesmen. I have no problem with people
charging for their materials if they cost to be produced, even
though it is hoped that when a person cannot afford to pay for
books and DVDs they will receive them free of charge.
But the charges levied on people for conferences and speaking
engagements is often excessive. A minister of God can
ask for support and deserves it if they are being diligent in
their study and proclamation of the Word. But
experiences and feelings often come with a price today and
that is not right.

"Mistake" or "Sin"?
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Today we often hear the word "mistake"
coming from pulpits, and especially in defense of false
teaching and false prophesy. "Cut him some
slack! He just made some mistakes". "We all make
mistakes, so don't judge lest you be judged." We even
hear the word "mistakes" being substituted for the word
"sin" in many presentations of what I have termed "Gospel
Lite" today. So is it proper to substitute the word
"mistake" for the word "sin"? We'll look at the
problem of one word "mistakenly" being used for the
other.

Servant Authority
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
The world system has always been a "top down"
structure, starting at the apex of the pyramid and going down
to the bottom. In kingdoms we have the king at the top, then
the princes, common people, slaves. In a democracy we have the
President at the top, the VP, the Sec. of State on down to the
citizens. In business we have the CEO at the top, upper
management, lower management, office workers and the
janitors. Unfortunately, sometime in the third century,
the church started to have a top down structure. This is also
when the church began to be in error. The church of Rome began
to have a "top down" structure that started with the pope,
then cardinals, then bishops, then priests, then the people.
Well, what about that? Eph 4:11 It was he who gave
some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be
evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers, This
all sounds like a "top down" structure. But the problem is
that people have not seen an important fact about these gifts
of the Spirit -- man looks at function and title, God looks at
aim and goal! Read on. Eph. 4:12 to prepare God's
people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be
built up. These are not gifts given for title or to give
people job descriptions. They are given because there are
people out there who need our help! The church needed the
Apostles. They were the ones who were the foundation of the
church. They were the ones who saw Jesus in the flesh and were
taught by Him personally. They wrote the New Testament
Scriptures. Though the gifts of apostle and prophet are
different today than in biblical times, the gift of
evangelism, pastoring, teaching and others are still the same.
A person who is an evangelist does not just have a title so he
can rule over people. The reason that he has the gift to be an
evangelist is so that he can tell others the good news. Why do
we have pastors? Are they supposed to rule the church and get
everyone to support them and bow to their demands? No. They
are to serve the church by helping people to come to a fuller
knowledge of Jesus Christ, to equip the saints to become more
like Jesus every day.
The true structure of Christianity is
symbolized as an inverted pyramid!

"Overtake you like a thief"

they simply lose rewards but still gain the ultimate
reward? What is this darkness that the brethren are
not in? 1 Thessalonians 5:3-5 While they are
saying, "Peace and safety!" then destruction will come
upon them suddenly like labor pains upon a woman with
child, and they will not escape. But you, brethren,

Generic and Specific
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
In my article "Blasphemizing
the
Bible" I give a number of examples of how a lot of
modern Bible translation societies are putting the names of
"supreme beings" in the Bible in the place of God or YHWH. In
this article I'm going to examine two of the excuses they make
for making those substitutions in the Bible in many hundreds
of different languages today.
(1) They claim that God has many different
names and therefore they think they are justified in putting
the names of various gods of various cultures in Bibles, as
long as they are considered "supreme beings".
(2) The second excuse they give is that the
names of the "gods" they are placing in the Bible are generic
terms for God, like the words "God", "Theos", "Dios" and
"Elohim". By generic I mean a word that can be used for any
deity whether of the one true God or other false gods who
claim to be God.
I will go through both of these excuses and
show that they are both unbiblical, therefore the Bibles they
have translated with names of other gods in them, or names
they claim are generic, prove that they have "blasphemized"
those Bibles.

The Ugly Side of Diaprax
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
There has been a concerted effort by the false
teachers from many movements inside the church such as Word of
Faith, New Apostolic Reformation (NAR)/Latter Rain, World
Gathering on Indigenous People and Emerging Church among
others to diaprax people into thinking that the church has
been ineffective until they came along with their new and
improved ideas on how to take over the world. This is
always a feature of the Hegelian Dialectical process put into
action by praxis, thus diaprax. In order to form a new
paradigm or worldview the leadership of these movements must
vilify orthodox Biblical Christianity.

Healer?
Heal Thyself!
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
A good subtitle for this article might be
"Practice What You Preach!" There is no doubt that God
can and does heal people today. But the false doctrines
of the Word-Faith Movement about "declaring" healing,
"name-it-and-claim-it", etc. have been proven to be lies by
the very people who sell this deceit. If you don't know
about where these famous "faith healers" go when they need
healing, you may be surprised. Why couldn't they heal
themselves when they purported to be able to heal others by
virtue of their superior faith? What happened to the
extraordinary faith they claimed to have, enough faith to heal
and be healed? Since they are the ones who taught that
all you have to do is claim the healing that is in the
Atonement (Is. 53:5) why did they not do so? Don't their
deaths prove that what they were preaching was a lie and
pragmatic witchcraft rather than biblical relality?

God"s Attitude toward the "Supreme
Beings" of the Nations
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
It is quite clear from Scripture that YHWH does
NOT consider the "supreme beings" of the nations to be
Himself, the One True God. This is in opposition to the
teachings of Don Richardson, Daniel Kikawa, Richard Twiss and
many others promoting the World Christian Gathering of
Indigenous People movement, Emergent Church and Liberal
theologies. I have proven this time and time again in my
articles on the subject but I am going to consolidate the
information from the Bible in this article by studying the
false gods named in the Bible. I am sure I will not be
able to cover every instance of supreme beings mentioned in
the Bible but I (1) want to deal with some of the major ones
(2) show you where they are found in the Word, and (3) prove
that they were the "supreme beings" of those nations named by
the patriarchs, prophets and Apostles and that they were not
monotheistic gods but polytheistic in the tradition of Babel
where the false religion of polytheism first took root through
the worship of Nimrod and Semiramis.

You need to "nip it in the bud"!
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
I am writing this article to address a
subject that I have often observed. It is the fact
that if you do not get the leaven out of your church the
leaven will become the leadership.The Bible teaches quite
clearly that if you let the leaven in you will leaven the
whole lump.
Galatians 5:9 A little leaven leavens
the whole lump of dough.
We see this often in the case of many
"Christian" movements that have allowed a small error to
exist in their churches and have not dealt with those
issues. It then ends up metastasizing into worse and
worse problems as time goes by.

The New Panentheistic "God" Of
Christendom
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Now, I bet you read the title of this article
and thought I had misspelled the word "pantheism". Just
so that those of you who write to me advising me of words I
have misspelled in articles (and I do often) I want to tell
you that I am using the term "panentheism" as coined by Karl
C. F. Krause. You can read more about this word and
concept in an excellent book called "A
Time Of Departing" by Ray Yungen.
There is a new "God" being promoted in the
Third Wave, New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) and Word of Faith
movements whose teachers are regularly seen on TBN, Daystar,
SkyAngel, CBN and other "Christian" TV networks. Some of
those teachers even have, what would be considered, a fairly
typical statement of faith or doctrinal statement they
endorse. But by what they teach they end up promoting a
false unbiblical view of God, especially through their actions
and experiences. The whole phenomenon of "slain in the
spirit" and all the antics that go with it are brainwashing an
entire generation of Christians to put their faith in another
Jesus, another Spirit, another Gospel. This new "Jesus"
and "Holy Spirit" is clearly pantheistic or panentheistic in
nature. Though some of these teachers would claim to be
believing in the God who is One God in Three Persons, by what
they teach they deny the very revealed character of God from
Scripture.

What Should I Say?
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
booklet.
How do you answer an invitation to attend a
meeting where you know nothing about the speaker or what will
be done there? What happens if they want to announce the
meeting at your church and invite everyone? What do you say to
a person who tells you that you don"t have the Holy Spirit
even though you are a Christian? What should you do if you
think something is wrong, or your conscience is bothering you
about something that was said or done? The answer?
Go to the Scriptures!
The Bible has all the answers to your
questions. This little booklet is an attempt to deal with a
few of the typical statements you will hear from people who
have become involved in the Third Wave revival movement. By
"Third Wave" I am referring to teachers, "prophets" and any
meeting associated with the Toronto "Blessing", Brownsville
Assemblies of God, Rodney Howard-Browne, Benny Hinn, Kenneth
Copeland, Rod Parsley, Marilyn Hickey, Joyce Meyers, Bethel
Church, Lakeland and many others who appear on the Trinity
Broadcasting Network and the 700 Club on TV.
Hopefully the statements and answers in this
booklet will set you off on an investigation of your own in
the Word. If you need help, and you have access to the
Internet, you can visit my web site called "Deception In The
Church" that deals with these issues and has the articles

Luring People To Destruction
By The Unscrupulous Use Of The
"Gospel" Message
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Phil. 1:14-18
Because of my chains, most of the brothers in the Lord have
been encouraged to speak the word of God more courageously and
fearlessly. It is true that some preach Christ out of
envy and rivalry, but others out of goodwill. The latter
do so in love, knowing that I am put here for the defense of
the gospel. The former preach Christ out of selfish ambition,
not sincerely, supposing that they can stir up trouble for me
while I am in chains. But what does it matter? The important
thing is that in every way, whether from false motives or
true, Christ is preached. And because of this I rejoice. Yes,
and I will continue to rejoice,
If you see what I see in this passage, this
argument cannot be used for people like Benny Hinn, Kenneth
Copeland and the hundreds, even thousands of Third Wave
ministers today who are not merely envious and self ambitious,
but are also teaching outright false doctrine. Paul was not
talking about heretics in this statement, but "brothers in the
Lord" who preach the Gospel with wrong motives. Third Wave
teachers not only have wrong motives, they also have the wrong
message. This argument cannot be used for people like
Hinn, even if they manage to preach enough of the "Gospel" for
people to come to a saving knowledge of the Lord, because they
are also teaching and practicing heresy.

Attack Of The Enemy
On The Churches
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
So much heresy is entering the churches these
days. As you would suspect, sometimes it is due to a
pastor attending a conference or reading a book and becoming
diapraxed with unbiblical ideas. He then starts to weave
those ideas into his messages and begins to invite speakers to
the church who expound on those ideas. Then when
confronted by someone in the church who has reservations about
the new stuff being taught, they are told to not talk about it
and just go along with the program. If that person does
not they are ostracized, slander behind their back, and often
told to leave (which is what they should do in any
case).
But my observation is that it is not only the
pastor who causes unbiblical changes to influence a
church. Often the pastor is blissfully unaware of
influences coming into his church. They often come in
through (1) the worship team (2) women"s groups (3) bookstore
(4) children"s programs (5) interdenominational prayer efforts
and (6) relief and mission organizations. If unchecked
this type of infiltration is much more subtle and can become
deeply rooted.

Marks Of False Religion
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Colossians 2:8 See to it that no one takes you
captive through philosophy and empty deception, according to
the tradition of men, according to the elementary principles
of the world, rather than according to Christ.
In context Paul is especially addressing,
though perhaps not to the exclusion of other false religion,
what had become the false religion of the Pharisees and Jewish
leadership. There were many Jewish so-called
"Christians" making the rounds among the fledgling early
churches who were trying to get the Gentiles to come under the
Law from which Christ had purchased their freedom. John
Gill states this case well in his commentary.

Universalism in the World
has Permeated the Church
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
The current fad of interfaith solidarity and
unity is simply a thin guise of inclusivism, Universalism
and pluralism.
Universalism is defined by Dictionary.com
as: The doctrine that emphasizes the universal fatherhood of
God and the final salvation of all souls. (Source)
Universalism is a religion and theology that generally holds
all persons and creatures are related to God or the divine
and will be reconciled to God. (Source)
Pluralism is defined as: The doctrine that
reality is composed of many ultimate substances. " The
belief that no single explanatory system or view of reality
can account for all the phenomena of life. (American
Heritage Dictionary, (Source)
Inclusivism is: "Inclusivism posits that
even though the work of Christ is the only means of
salvation, it does not follow that explicit knowledge of
Christ is necessary in order for one to be saved. In
contrast to pluralism, inclusivism agrees with exclusivism
in affirming the particularity of salvation in Jesus Christ.
But unlike exclusivism, inclusivism holds that an implicit
faith response to general revelation can be salvific. God
expects from man a response proportional to the light given.
Saving faith is not characterized so much by its cognitive
content as it is by its reverent quality." (Ken Keathley,
None Dare Call It Treason: Is an Inclusivist a Paul
Revere or a Benedict Arnold? (Ken Keathley, Assistant
Professor of Theology and Philosophy New Orleans Baptist
Theological Seminary, (Source)
We deal with these old heresies brought
forward to modernity, these ideas that all men have have a
relationship with God that will cause them to be able to
avoid judgement in our book on the teachings of the World
Gathering on Indigenous People movement called "Idolatry
In
Their Hearts". The idea that all men who worship
a "god" are worshipping the true God, YHWH, has bubbled up
to the very top of our societies and religions, and even
Christendoom, and should sound a warning alarm to true
Biblical Christianity. Instead, as usual in our day,
most Christians are asleep at the wheel while Universalists
claim that you can pray to a "god" like Allah and be praying
to the true Trinue God, YHWH. I also dealt with the fact
that Allah is not YHWH, both in our book and in the article
"Is
Allah The Same As YHWH?".

What We Need Is A Reverse Paradigm
Shift!
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
I'm going to warn you now. I am going to
let you in on some information tonight that is going to
radically change your world view. You are likely going
to experience the beginnings of a reverse paradigm shift and
after tonight there will be no way to go back the way you
came. You will be faced with choices that you may never
have known you had. You will be faced with a new way of
looking at things that is going to cause you to rethink
everything that is being taught in the Emerging Latter Rain
churches. It is going to be radical because the basis
for this message doesn't come from Jesus Christ visiting my
room last night bodily, but from His holy written Word.
So buckle down your seat belts, you're likely in for a bumpy
ride!
Matt. 7:15-23 "Watch out
for false prophets. They come to you in sheep"s clothing,
but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. By their fruit you
will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes,
or figs from thistles? Likewise every good tree bears good
fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot
bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every
tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown
into the fire. Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them.
"Not everyone who says to me, "Lord, Lord," will enter the
kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my
Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day,
"Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your
name drive out demons and perform many miracles?" Then I
will tell them plainly, "I never knew you. Away from me, you
evildoers!"

False Teachers Revisited
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
I often receive requests to present updated
false teachings and false prophecies by the myriad of heretics
out there. We do try to keep up with all the
latest. But I have to remind people that those we have
exposed as false on our site have not repented of what they
have already done in the past, which is why they are still on
our site. So what they are doing now has no relevance as
to whether or not they are now to be considered a true
Biblical teacher. If and when they repent, that is
renounce their false teachings and false prophecies, make
restitution to those they have deceived, and begin to teach
sound Biblical doctrine we will give you that
information. As of now NONE of the people we have
exposed have repented of their Latter Rain, Word of Faith
teachings, heretical practices or their false
prophecies. But in the interest of helping you to
respond to a person who inquires by saying: "Those articles
are old and you need newer materials" well, here is some newer
stuff you can add to the pile. For you and me this
really makes no difference, but for those who are living in
deception perhaps it might demolish one of their arguments
against the truth.

Testing The Spirits
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Sometimes I really wonder why someone who
claims to be a Bible believing pastor, for instance, refuses
to listen to the truth. It frankly boggles my
mind. I don't know if it is as a result of the
postmodern paradigm or just that they have no love of the
truth left. I don't know how that can happen in a truly
regenerate person. You would think that the Holy Spirit
would confirm the truth to them, first in their conscience,
and finally through the written Word. But these days it
is a miracle if it gets that far. I don't know if their
conscience has been so seared that they don't hear the Spirit
or if they just don't want to know the truth because then they
would be responsible for it. I know that I cannot know
their motives or the reasons why they reject truth and refuse
to talk about false teaching, but I do know one thing: we are
called as true believers to test the spirits. We must do
this even if the result is not to our liking or befuddles us
as to the reasons.
1 John 4:1 Dear friends,
do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see
whether they are from God, because many false prophets have
gone out into the world.

Questions for Those Who Claim the
"Supreme Beings"
Of the Nations Are the True God
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
I have some questions for those of the World
Christian Gathering of Indigenous People (WCGIP) adherents
such as Don Richardson, Daniel Kikawa, Richard Twiss
(deceased), Terry LeBlanc, Danny Lehman, Aloha Ke Akua, YWAM
as well as many in the Emergent Church (EC) ... the questions
arise from their claim that the "supreme beings" of the
nations are all the True God, YHWH, the God of Abraham, Isaac
and Jacob. You can read more on this subject in our book
"Idolatry
In
Their Hearts" or in the WCGIP
section of my site. My main question for them is this: When
did ANY of the Patriarchs and Prophets in the Old Testament
and the Apostles or Jesus Christ in the New Testament EVER
claim that the "supreme beings" of the nations were
Elohim/YHWH, the one True God? Let's look at some
examples in the form of questions and you can check out the

How To Discern, Test & Judge
Rightly
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
In running a web site with thousands of
articles, 1-2 million hits per month from all over the world,
and hundreds of e-mails per week, I have come to realize, with
time, that there is a terrible problem in Christendom today.
The problem stems from an existential subjective view of the
world that has filtered into the church from secular society,
but also from the teachings of heretical wolves who have
taught an entire generation of churchgoers completely
unbiblical methods of discernment or to get rid of any
discernment altogether.

We need a firm foundation to weather
the storm of false ideas
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Matthew 22:29 Jesus answered and said unto
them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power
of God. (KJV)
Matthew 7:24 "Therefore everyone who hears
these words of Mine and acts on them, may be compared to a
wise man who built his house on the rock.
How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord,
Is laid for your faith in His excellent word!
" 1787 Joseph Funk & Robert Keene
A house built on the rock will stand. The
Rock is God and in particular, Jesus Christ. Therefore
His written Word is the teachings of the His Holy Spirit and a
Rock we can depend on. Anyone who wants to prove
anything theologically, historically, scientifically or
anything else needs to start with correct information.
If you start with a faulty foundation, as you build your
arguments, they begin to fall apart because they are not
supported in God"s truth. If you want to build on a firm
foundation, you need to start the process by a careful study
of God"s Word in context of the verse and according to the
whole counsel of God"s Word. The Bible is the best
commentary on the Bible.

Karma (by any other name)
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
According to Wikipedia:
"Karma means action, work or deed; it also
refers to the principle of causality where intent and
actions of an individual influence the future of that
individual. Good intent and good deed contribute to
good karma and future happiness, while bad intent and bad
deed contribute to bad karma and future suffering.
Karma is closely associated with the idea of rebirth in some
schools of Asian religions. In these schools, karma in
the present affects one's future in the current life, as
well as the nature and quality of future lives - or, one's
samsara. With origins in ancient India, it is a key concept
in Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism, Taoism, Shintoism,
Ching Hai and others."(emphasis mine)
Mirram-Webster defines it this way:
the force created by a person's actions that
is believed in Hinduism and Buddhism to determine what that
person's next life will be like: the force created by a
person's actions that some people believe causes good or bad
things to happen to that person
Given the definitions of "karma" above, this
same idea, usually without the reincarnation aspect in
Christian circles, has been taught for decades in New Thought
movements such as the Positive Thinking/Positive Confession
teachings of Norman Vincent Peale & Robert
Schuller, the Word of Faith ideas of Essex Kenyan, Kenneth
Hagin, Kenneth
Copeland and Benny
Hinn, the mixture of Eastern Mysticism and Christianity
by Korean false teachers such as the "force of faith" Paul
Yongii
Cho, and newer renditions and fusions by people like Joel
Osteen, Joseph
Prince, T.D.
Jakes (recently agreeing with Oprah Winfrey who teaches
karma on her WHO network), and others such as Ernest

by Sandy Simpson

Zechariah 14:9 NIV The LORD will be king
over the whole earth. On that day there will be one LORD,
and his name the only name.

Replacement Theology On Steroids
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
So, as you can see, the root of this
teaching is that Israel no longer holds the distinction of
being the tree from which the Root of David (Jesus-Rev. 5:5,
22:16) came. They are no longer the "natural branches"
(Israel-Rom. 11:21) on to which Gentile Christianity (the
wild shoots-Rom. 11:17 or wild branches-Rom. 11:24) are
grafted in (Rom. 11:17-24). According to Replacement
Theology, Christianity has now become its own branch apart
from Israel (the natural branch) that produced the Root and
all the promises of the Bible to Israel have been taken away
from them and given to the Gentile Church. This is why
you hear so many false teachers taking verses out of context
from the Old Testament and willy-nilly applying them to the
Gentile Church. This methodology has been going on for
decades in liberal churches and has been popularized by many
false teachers on TV. But the fact is that Replacement
Theology is utter false doctrine. It denies promises
made to Israel, some of which have already been fulfilled
and some which are yet to come to fruition. But when you add
the fact that the Inclusivist WCGIP proponents are now
saying that God planted hundreds of different trees,
cultures all over the world, that are not connected to the
natural branch, tree and Root, you have what can only be
termed Replacement Theology on steroids!

Those Who Do Not Lead Christians to
Maturity
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
The Scriptural definition of maturity is to
learn to discern truth from error so that the Christian will
no longer be double minded, blown about by every wind of
teaching and by the schemes of crafty people. But the
problem today is that so few Christian teachers are feeding
their flock's solid food. They are serving up milk and,
because of that, people are starving. Yet they often don't
even know they have been on a starvation diet. Amos 8:11
"The days are coming," declares the Sovereign Lord, "when I
will send a famine through the land - not a famine of
food or a thirst for water, but a famine of hearing the
words of the Lord."

"... and all liars"
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
Lying is a problem for all people (Ps.
116:11). We are all sinners (Rom. 3:23). Those of
us who are Christians are "sinners saved by grace" (Eph. 2:8)
indwelt by the Holy Spirit in our "new self" (Col. 3:10). But
we still live in our "old self" which we must "put off" (Eph.
4:20-25) by taking up our cross daily and following Christ
(Luke 9:23). The difference between unbelievers and
those who are truly born again is that believers no longer
"practice sin" (1 John 3:9, see my Bible study on 1
John!) They have the indwelling Holy Spirit (Rom. 8:11)
who convicts them when they lie (John 16:8). True believers
then repent (1 John 1:9) and go on to "practice righteousness"
(1 John 2:29) with the Lord's help. The unregenerate,
the false brothers, or those who have fallen away (Gal. 5:4,
Mark 4:17), practice lying. They practice a lifestyle of
lying because their consciences are seared (1 Tim. 4:2) and
the Holy Spirit, when convicting them, cannot break through
the hardness of their unrepentant hearts (Eph. 4:17-19, Heb.
3:13).

Four
Books That the Enemy Has Used To Corrupt Christianity
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
The four books that have changed the church by
giving an introduction to the false teachings of the New
Apostolic/Latter Rain (NAR), the Emerging
Church/Contemplative/Catholic Mysticism (EC), pragmatic Church
Growth (CG) methodologies of C. Peter Wagner, Robert Schuller
and Peter Drucker, and the teachings of the World Christian
Gathering on Indigenous People (WCGIP) are as follows:
Surprised by the Power of the Spirit by Jack
Deer, Celebration of Discipline by Richard Foster, Purpose
Driven Church by Rick Warren & Etnerity In Their Hearts by
Don Richardson.
These four books were widely read by
Christians from virtually every denominational background
before their ramifications and the movements they would spawn
were known. They lay error alongside truth so were
considered not to be a threat to churches. Therefore
these books then became part of the consciousness of many
Christians and churches, thereby laying the basis for the
introduction of the modern day false teachings of the NAR, EC,
CG and WCGIP that have become part of the landscape of
Christendom today.

Night Marchers and UFOs on the Big
Island
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
With the resurgence of the old religion of
Hawaii and the continual invocation of Pel" and other
"deities" for years in the secular culture and even in
churches with regards to worshipping 'Io, is it any wonder
that those beings are beginning to manifest again? In
a story called "Night
Marchers" on the Kawaihae site and in a YouTube
video on the same subject, eyewitnesses claim all
kinds of sightings that they think are the warriors,
ancestors and demi-gods of Hawaii coming back.
Interestingly the
first
book the Hawaiian Heritage site recommends in its
"Suggested Reading" list is "Perpetuated
in
Righteousness" by Daniel Kikawa that we reviewed in
our book "Idolatry
In
Their Hearts" by Sandy Simpson and Mike Oppenheimer.
Since Kikawa claims that 'Io is the True God and one that
the Hawaiians worshipped in secret, we have to wonder if
Kikawa also thinks 'Io is showing up in these night marches?
Since YWAM, Aloha Ke Akua and Hilo New Hope participated in
worshipping 'Io at the "edge of Hale-ma'uma'u Crater" it
sounds like they have all been inviting the old "gods" to
return to Hawaii.

"They Will Believe
The Lie"
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
I am doing a Bible study right now on what I
would call "renewing our minds". It is based on this
verse:
Romans 12:2 Do not conform to the pattern of
this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.
Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is
- his good, pleasing and perfect will.
The only way to renew our minds is to believe
on the Lord Jesus Christ, confess our sins, and be saved, then
to study the written Word and allow the indwelling Holy Spirit
to teach us. Our minds are corrupted by virtue of the
sin nature and what we have learned in life because our
filters are off. I gave an illustration of straining coconut
to make coconut milk. If you use a 1 inch screen
everything will pass through. Even if you use a quarter
inch screen you will get mostly coconut meat in your
milk. You have to use a fine screen in order to separate
the milk from the leftover. Our filters are off and the
first thing God begins to do is correct our worldview, because
if your worldview is off you will not understand God's
reality. We need to learn to see things from His
perspective. This is why I started this study by going
back to an original problem.
2 Thessalonians 2:9-12 The coming of the
lawless one will be in accordance with how Satan works. He
will use all sorts of displays of power through signs and
wonders that serve the lie, and all the ways that
wickedness deceives those who are perishing. They perish
because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. For
this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they
will believe the lie and so that all will be condemned
who have not believed the truth but have delighted in
wickedness.
This has always been an interesting passage to
me for a few different reasons. What is "the lie" that
is talked about here in verse 9 and 11? What are the
ways that "wickedness deceives those who are perishing" and
how long has this been going on or does this only begin to
happen at the coming of the lawless one? In what way
does "the lie" cause those who do not believe the truth to
"delight in wickedness"?

"Christians" Who Try To Poke Holes In
Sola Scriptura
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this article: "Christians"
Who
Try To Poke Holes In Sola Scriptura
There are a number of the leadership of the
Emerging Church (EC) who do not believe that the Bible is
the highest authority for the Christian faith. Most do
not believe that the Bible is inerrant in the original
manuscripts and many do not acknowledge that the Bible is
our highest revelation. Yet this is a core doctrine
over which true believers and false brethren must separate.
Those who try to poke holes in Sola Scriptura make excuses
like (1) we need to reinterpret the Bible through the lens
of postmodern culture and religion (2) the Bible never uses
the words "Sola Scriptura" therefore it is not a Biblical
concept (3) there is new revelation for the church through
the Holy Spirit apart from what is written and the precepts
of the Bible and (4) the Bible just doesn't address our
postmodern situation therefore we cannot rely on it for the
truth and answers for our problems today. I will prove
that all the above arguments, and more, from EC leaders and
others is exactly what they are teaching. I will give
you quotes from their teachings, videos and books. The
postmodern church and its "movements" are abandoning Sola
Scriptura in their rush to be like the Roman Catholic
Church, which takes its authority from a mix of Scripture
and tradition.
"As a result the Church, to whom the
transmission and interpretation of Revelation is entrusted,
"does not derive her certainty about all revealed truths
from the holy Scriptures alone. Both Scripture and Tradition
must be accepted and honored with EQUAL sentiments of
devotion and reverence." (Roman Catholic Catechism, Given
October 11, 1992, the thirtieth anniversary of the opening
of the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council, in the fourteenth
year of my Pontificate. Page 31).

The Question Of Dominion
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this article: The
Question
Of Dominion.
I am writing this article as an apologetic
against the Third Wave, Latter Rain, Word of Faith and
Reformed Theology teachings that the Church is to rise up
and take over the systems of government, businesses and
every other aspect of life. "See, the problem is, is that
Satan has had too much of his way in our society because he
has a government! And the only way to overthrow a
government is with a government. It won't happen
otherwise. So therefore the government of the church
has to get into place in the extended church just like we do
have it very well in place, we haven't reached our goal yet
..." (Transcript of C. Peter Wagner, Arise Prophetic
Conference, Gateway Church, San Jose, CA, 10-10-2004) Wagner
has substituted the "government of the church" for the
coming government of Jesus Christ in the Millennial
Kingdom. Wagner is "Kingdom Now" while the Bible
teaches "Kingdom Come". What I wanted to do with this
article is put the issue of dominion to rest by studying the
definition the Bible gives to dominion and ruling
authority. When we look at the subject we can easily
ascertain what is going on today and what God requires of
the Church.

Shepherd Or Hireling?
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on the article: "Shepherd
Or
Hireling?"
The Bible lays out the definitions of both
an overseer (under shepherd) and a hireling. John
10:11-13 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd
giveth his life for the sheep. But he that is an hireling,
and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the
wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf
catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep. The hireling
fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the
sheep. (KJV) 1 Tim. 3:1-3 Here is a
trustworthy saying: If anyone sets his heart on being an
overseer, he desires a noble task. Now the overseer must be
above reproach, the husband of but one wife, temperate,
self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, not
given to drunkenness, not violent but gentle, not
quarrelsome, not a lover of money. (NIV) Titus
1:7-13 Since an overseer is entrusted with God's work,
he must be blameless, not overbearing, not quick-tempered,
not given to drunkenness, not violent, not pursuing
dishonest gain. Rather he must be hospitable, one who loves
what is good, who is self-controlled, upright, holy and
disciplined. He must hold firmly to the trustworthy message
as it has been taught, so that he can encourage others by
sound doctrine and refute those who oppose it. For there are
many rebellious people, mere talkers and deceivers,
especially those of the circumcision group. They must be
silenced, because they are ruining whole households by
teaching things they ought not to teach - and that for the
sake of dishonest gain. Even one of their own prophets has
said, "Cretans are always liars, evil brutes, lazy
gluttons." This testimony is true. Therefore, rebuke them
sharply, so that they will be sound in the faith. (NIV) A
hireling does not really care about being a watchman, but is
more concerned with protecting his reputation, position and
income. A true watchman will guard the flock against
wolves from within (Acts 20:30) and without (Acts 20:29) no
matter the cost to his reputation, position or income.
Following is a little quiz you can take to see if you are a
true Biblical under shepherd as a leader in your church, are
becoming a hireling, or are one now.

Testing Music In The Church
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on these articles: Testing
Music
In The Church, Testing
Music
In The Church-Part 2, and Worship
Song
Ratings.
Too many churches today are allowing music
to be used in their services that is not glorifying to the
Lord and can actually be a hindrance to the teaching of
sound doctrine. Pastors and leaders should be using their
leadership role to test what is being played and sung in
their churches. Though some are quick to test preaching and
teaching from their pulpits, many ignore the music being
used in the same services. This is a tragic mistake. Music
is a powerful medium. It is something that effects deeply
the body, mind and emotions. It is a proven fact that music
often stays with a person far longer than what is taught or
preached. Songs roam around in our heads, especially if the
melody appeals to us. What is often overlooked is the
serious impression music makes on people, and the teaching
they are getting over and over again as they allow the song
to repeat in their minds and on their lips. Music teaches
things much more subtly yet sometimes far more effectively.
That's why the lyrical content of music in the church, as
well as its effect on the spiritual lives of those who
perform and listen, should be vigorously examined by the

Examine Yourselves & Hold On!
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on the articles "Examine
Yourself
To See If You Are In The Faith" and "Hold
On!"
2 Cor. 13:5 Examine yourselves to
see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves.
Do you not realise that Christ Jesus is in
you - unless, of course, you fail the test?
People who call themselves followers of Christ
or "Christians" and claim they are born again must believe
certain things. If they do not then they fail the test
of faith. They can claim they are born again all they
want and "once saved, always saved" but if they fail the test
of faith there is no eternal security. Only God knows
who will be saved, from beginning to end, because of His
foreknowledge and omniscience (Rom. 8:29, 1 Pet. 1:2).
God did not make an arbitrary judgment about who would be
saved and who would not. His Spirit is given to those He
foreknew, when convicted of sin by His Holy Spirit, would
choose to believe and commit themselves to Jesus Christ.
We are not God and we do not have His omniscience.
Therefore, according to Paul, we must be sure our belief
system is in the right place once our eyes have been opened to
the Truth. I am not saying we do not have assurance of
salvation, but our assurance comes not only because of His
Atonement and promises of salvation but from our continuing in
the Faith, which is always the Biblical criteria. Those who
would be Bible teachers must teach according to the whole
counsel of God's Word. Let me be clear. There is
only one way to salvation. That is by grace alone
through faith alone in Christ alone. I will deal with a
few of those issues following, but it is important to
recognize that being saved is not just a matter of believing
that Jesus lived, or that He was a man, or simply giving
mental ascent to His existence in whatever form.

"Blasphemizing" The Bible
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
I am going to go over an article I wrote back
in 2006 in preparation for the book I wrote with Mike
Oppenheimer called 'Idolatry in Their Hearts'. This book
is an apologetic against the false teachings of the World
Christian Gathering on Indigenous People movement, the
Emerging Church and the New Apostolic Reformation which got
their ideas from the book "Eternity in Their Hearts" by Don
Richardson. At the time that book came out no one really
saw the dangerous ideas Richardson was promoting. All
they would have had to do was look at the two subtitles of
that book to understand the implications. The first
subtitle in the 1981 edition read: The Untold Story of
Christianity among Folk Religions of Ancient People.
Those who read this book found some interesting cross-cultural
ideas but apparently missed the false premise of the book
starting with the subtitle. How could Christianity be "among
folk religions" where the Gospel had not been preached (Rom.
10:14-15)? At that time Christians who read the book were
apparently satisfied that, though there was some questionable
material present, it made for an interesting discussion on how
to do cross-cultural ministry. The subtitle it has today,
which was first published in 1984, is as follows: Startling
Evidence of Belief in the One True God in Hundreds of Cultures
Throughout the World. This should have been a red flag
for many Christians but then, who reads subtitles? But
how could the "One True God" be known to Gentiles who did "not
know God".

Resources For Pastors
including
"Good English Bible Translations"
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
I was talking with a pastor after a Wednesday
night service and he mentioned that I said I had done an
article comparing English Bible translations. He called
me up later and asked me to come back and present the contents
of that article I sent out in about 2002 to my mailing list
for the Pacific Waves Newsletter which, unfortunately, I can
no longer afford to publish and mail. However an archive
of past issues of that newsletter can be found here.
In that article I detailed a number of good and bad resources
for pastors including Bible translations, concordances,
commentaries, Bible dictionaries, etc. I present an
edited version of part of that article on this DVD,
particularly dealing with English Translations of the
Bible. Translation is a very detailed endeavor and
should only be undertaken by those with a proper education in
that subject and a sound doctrinal background. I read a
few books on that subject and it helped me understand the
complexities involved. Hebrew is a rich language so it
is hard to distill one Hebrew word down to one English
word. Greek is a very technical language and it is also
not easy to translate. This is why it is imperative to
use the good English translations out there for comparison
along with a good concordance and Bible dictionary.

A TALE OF TWO KINGDOMS
Kingdom Now or Kingdom Come?
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this
article.
There are two kingdoms being taught in many
churches today. Teaching about one of the kingdoms is on the
decline while the other is being promoted all over the
place. I am warning Christians that they need to check
out who is using the word "kingdom", the books they have been
reading and recommend on building "the kingdom", the people
they have been hanging out with at conferences, and what they
mean by "the kingdom".

A Whole Lot Of Wishful Thinking
These Days!

This DVD series is a teaching based on this

In this DVD series I want to detail a number
of beliefs people have these days that have no basis in
Scripture. I am going to roam all over the map, so to
speak, and try to give fairly short answers on a number of
topics and also give you useful links to articles that will

From Church To Emerging Church DVD
Series
by Sandy Simpson
The issue of the Emerging Church and it's
introduction into many churches and mission organizations has
reached a critical point. Many do not undersand what is
being leavened into churches by the EC leadership. Many
would be shocked to know their belief systems involve
Universalism, New Age, defense of postmodernism,
Interfaithism, and many other false doctrines. In order
to reach out to this generation the EC leadership is proposing
a whole new "map" to deal with what they perceive is a lack of
understanding on the part of the churches on how to
communicate. EC proponants believe the "scripture" for
today is evolving and must change in order to reach
postmoderns.

Idolatry In Their Hearts
Landmark Book!
by Sandy Simpson &
Mike Oppenheimer
Does having eternity in your heart mean that you
know God and are His child? Could Gentile cultures understand
the Gospel from the stars? Did God create man's cultures? Has
God always been in the process of redeeming cultures from the
time of Babel by placing in them a true revelation of Himself?
Is there the worship of YHWH in all cultures and religions
through the names of supreme beings? Have all cultures
always had a way to make things right between them and God?
These questions and many more are answered in this book that
addresses the false teachings of The New Apostolic Reformation
regarding missiological methods as being carried out by many
agencies including the World Christian Gathering on Indigenous
People, YWAM, and many Bible societies.

Lessons In Forgiveness
Great Study!
by Sandy Simpson
Through the years I
have been presented with many opportunities to forgive.
Sometimes the situation was so severe that it took me some
time to forgive and start the process of healing for
myself, and eventually for others. I learned that a
Christian needs to forgive other people even if they have
not repented of their sins. That can be really hard if we
let it be hard. But if we give our burdens over to the
Lord, He will carry them and that frees us up to treat
other people with love, compassion, and be in the right
frame of mind and heart to set them up for reconciliation
with Jesus Christ. That does not mean we tolerate their
sin. We simply forgive them for what they have done to us,
whether perceived or real, and move on to looking for ways
to redeem them. We can then present to them the "truth in
love" even when we have to rebuke them.

Reverse Paradigm Shift
by Sandy Simpson
We live in a topsy-turvy
world of opposing ideas.
It is easy to get lost and overwhelmed.
We as Christians often don’t realize how much we
have been diapraxed by the world, the flesh and the devil. Our paradigm has
been altered to such a degree that, without the solid
foundation of Scripture, we are often set adrift without
the anchor God has provided us.
Our paradigm is our worldview, our understanding
of reality. Without
the guidance of the Holy Spirit and the written eternal
Word, we really have no hope of understanding reality, our
cultures, or our lives.
I have written this book to clue the reader into
some of the issues that surround the modern born-again
believer and how to reverse the shift that has
exponentially changed our perspective in some cases. Fortunately, in
the foreknowledge of our Lord, He provided us with a
roadmap to navigate our fallen world.
We don’t need a new map, as Emergent Church
advocates claim. We
need the tried and true map of the ages.
There is “nothing new under the sun”.
There have always been false prophets and false
teachers who are there by the will of the enemy to mislead
and ultimately destroy the faith of many.
We are clearly living in the Apostasy foretold in
the Bible that has been growing preceding the appearance
of the Antichrist. We
need to carefully test ourselves to be sure we are in the
Faith, and then hold on to the hope we have in Christ.
Only $18. plus s/h. for US.

INSTANT DOWNLOAD
FEATURE!
I have had a number of my books available for download in
e-book format for a few years. I now have a number of my
DVD videos available for instant download via PayLoadz.
To see which ones we have available you will find the following
symbol next that item on the main pages of this site as well as
on the item order page:
The DVD videos available with this feature are in MP4 format,
playable on your computer or personal device as long as you have
a program on it that can play back MP4s. Due to storage
restrictions the instant download version of the DVD videos we
have available in MP4 format are of slightly less resolution as
the DVD version. However with this option you save
shipping and handling and delivery time. The videos are
$10. each and PayLoadz will send you to PayPal for payment. So
now you have a choice.
I am also now offering downloadable audio MP3s of the same
videos. Check the product page for the PayLoadz link to those
MP3s. This is a good option for those who like to listen
to programs in their car, etc. and don't have time to watch a
video. The audio MP3s are priced at $3. each.
New Method of Delivery!
You can now order our DVDs and CDs on flash drives!
I am in the process of adding that feature to all the product
pages, but in the meantime you can simply add a note to your
PayPal order if you want what you ordered on a flash drive
instead of a DVD or CD. The cost is the same for a flash drive
as for a DVD/CD ($10. plus s/h). The nice thing about a
flash drive is that I can put the HD version on a flash
drive! This will help those with the new computers that
come without DVD drives. If you want me combine more than
one DVD on one flash drive, you will still have to pay what you
would pay for each DVD.
Apostasy
1/1/25 - Feminization
And The Church by Joshua Farris – American Reformer,
1/1/25
“By taking deliberate steps to re-engage men, the church can
fulfill its mission more effectively, providing a space where both
men and women can thrive in their God-given roles…” Feminism has
reshaped the Western cultural landscape in profound ways,
influencing public education, media, corporate practices, and
societal norms. The church, particularly in evangelical circles,
has long sought to maintain a countercultural stance, but it has
not remained immune to these shifts. As feminism’s ideological
offshoots have permeated various aspects of society, their
influence has also seeped into the church.

"For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising
themselves as apostles of Christ." 2Corinthians 11:13 Sandy
Simpson, of the Apologetics Coordination Team, joins me to discuss
the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR). Sandy runs Deception in the
Church, an extensive library of resources on the NAR and related
movements and organizations. Sandy does a fantastic job of
describing in just an hour a movement that really needs many hours
to really understand properly. It is my hope that this episode
will inspire people to dig deeper to learn more about the New
Apostolic Reformation and the unbiblical practices that go on
within the movement. Please check out the show notes and visit the
additional resources section. The New Apostolic Reformation is a
dangerous movement that is carrying many Christians away from
orthodox, Biblical practices. This episode is available to stream

2/7/25 - The
Inclusive Universal Counterfeit god[s] (DVD) by Mike
Oppenheimer, 2/7/25
A new world religion is being formed, and it has everything to do
with the church compromising. I can’t think of a better
counterfeit to introduce the false Christ to the world, saying he
is the son of all the gods of the nations. While at the same time
diminishing the importance of Israel’s role in delivering us the
Son of God through its lineage. The whole bible is focused on God
and his Son, on his covenant with Israel and the lineage of whom
he would be incarnated through. Recently at a foursquare
conference some Hawaiian pastors spoke on the Hawaiian people
knowing the true God (Io, who they claim is Triune) before the
missionaries came. Some were mentored by Daniel Kikawa (whose
mentor is Don Richardson). Both who are pioneers in this inclusive
universal god movement. What does it mean when you hear someone
say that their supreme god from a nation like Korea, or Japan, or
Hawaii sent the Son of God? Biblically, It changes who the Father
is and gives the church a counterfeit son and gospel. In the last
days Jesus commends the church twice for keeping His word,
and not denying His name Rev 3:8. There is something important
about this applied to prophecy. If one uses another gods name for
the Father or the Son they are denying both. Why because these
other gods whom some call supreme are not the true God of Israel
that sent the Son. I made this video to convey in the simplest
manner possible what is taking place, so people understand this
movement the church is facing. This has become a road to
unity with all gods (Gods of other religions) and we need to know
about it. Over 45 minutes (with power point and video)

1/22/25 - Haunted
Souls – From Meditation Into Hallucinations (Booklet)
by Larry DeBruyn, 1/22/25
Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a
roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour. (1
Peter 5:8) As borrowed from the eastern mystical religions,
meditative or contemplative spirituality—the operation which
involves retreating into solitude (getting alone with God) and
silence (remaining quiet before God) and engaging in ascetic
practices—has emerged among evangelical Christians as a popular
way to experience God’s love and receive revelations from Him.1
Interestingly, this discovery among evangelicals about how to
find “spirituality” now parallels the “mindfulness” revolution
taking place in secular society. By shucking their ever-present
cell phones, tabloids, iPods, and other distractions, increasing
numbers of people from all walks of life—athletes, educators,
corporate execs and workers, politicians, government workers,
and members of the military—attempt to “de-stress” their lives
by attending “mindfulness” retreats where under the direction of
spiritual tutors, they learn to meditate with the hope they will
discover “a new consciousness” to help them cope with life.2 To
promote “mindfully” working, playing, parenting, test taking,
and even going to war, the practice of meditation has risen
significantly in America. Based on a report from the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention, over 35 million American adults
have practiced meditation.3 But amidst the rising popularity of
this mindfulness revolution, a dark secret lurks in the
background. One advocate of “Christian” contemplation, the
Quaker Richard Foster, recommends meditation as a means for
developing a deeper spirituality.

Tracts by Let Us Reason Ministries, 2/1/25
These tracts are meant to show the difference of what they
believe with true Christianity and to give a Christian answer to
various religions and cults (1 Pt.3:15). They can be used as an
outline that can be expanded if necessary. They are short so one
can make their point with 5-10 minutes. 1Pet 3:15- But sanctify
the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a
defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is
in you, with meekness and fear. 2 Tim 4:2- Preach the word! Be
ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort,
with all longsuffering and teaching. 2 Tim 2:24-26- And a
servant of the Lord must not quarrel but be gentle to all, able
to teach, patient, in humility correcting those who are in
opposition, if God perhaps will grant them repentance, so that
they may know the truth, and that they may come to their

Should we expect to hear the
voice of God? Let’s plunge into the Deeper Waters and find
out. My boss at the Post Office was surprised when I told her
that hearing the voice of God is not a part of normative
Christian living. It hasn’t been for centuries. It’s only been
in more recent times that Christians have been convinced they
are hearing the voice of God and that this is what everyone is
supposed to do. Someday, I would like to know where it
started.
‘The
Carpenter’ Film by Garrett Batty (Film) - Reviewed
by Protestia
“If you want to learn who Jesus is, open up your Bible. Plead
in prayer to God to reveal him to you. Don’t a watch a
ridiculous movie in which 100% of it is fabricated and made up
by some fool who thinks he’s being clever. My my, what a
terrible idea.” A film about Jesus of Nazareth having a Mixed
Martial Artist (MMA) apprentice is set to be released in
theaters this Friday. Garrett Batty is the writer, producer,
and director of ‘The Carpenter.’ A devout Mormon, he has a
small handful of indie films beneath his belt, including The
Saratov Approach in 2013, which is perhaps his best ‘known’
film, and Out of Liberty, which is a dramatic telling of LDS
founder Joseph Smith’s time in jail before an unruly mob
killed him.

Pope Promotes Migrants & Sends Trump-Trashing Cardinal To

“Cardinal McElroy, 70, strongly supports Francis’ priorities on
refugees, the environment, and welcoming LGBTQ Catholics. He
will succeed Cardinal Wilton Gregory, 77, who was the first
African-American Archbishop of Washington, DC. He’s in the right
place. D.C.’s a sewer of communism.” The Red Pope said Thursday
that migrants shouldn’t be seen as a “problem to be managed.”
They should be valued for their dreams and talents. He also sent

whined about the Trump administration’s deportations of illegal
alien criminals, lifelong Catholic and new border czar Tom Homan
searingly exposed the hypocrisy of a man who lives behind the
famed Vatican walls. Those who live in glass houses shouldn’t
throw stones, and those who live behind massive medieval walls
shouldn’t tear down other people’s fences.
1/29/25 - Why
Rome's gospel is NOT the true gospel in the Bible by
Let Us Reason Ministries, 1/29/25
Sacerdotalism is a term that means that salvation is mediated
through the priesthood. Rome claims it is by giving the
Eucharist that gives salvation, which comes by the hands of
their priests, which came to them through a bakery. Peter who
they claim is their first Pope said “Since you have purified
your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit ….having been
born again, not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, through
the word of God which lives and abides forever” (1 Peter
1:22-23). Instead of being regenerated by the Word, the
Spirit of God, Roman Catholics are taught a completely different
approach to salvation that uses biblical words and items. They
combine elements from the Old Testament (ie. priesthood, rituals
etc.), as the means of grace which is dispensed by their priest
through their church.

Since 2016, Lighthouse Trails has been sending out topical
booklets (usually two-three times a year) to a growing list of
pastors and Christian leaders. On Friday, January 17th,
Lighthouse Trails will be sending out our first mailing of 2025
to Christian leaders and pastors. Our current list has around
1100 names. If you would like your pastor or a church leader to
begin receiving these free mailings, please send the name and a
valid mailing address to us at editors@lighthousetrails.com. The
names and addresses on this list will remain confidential and
not be given or sold to anyone. Please note, if you are sending
a church address, we need a mailing address (which is not
necessarily a street address). Many churches do not have a mail
receptacle on location (and thus those envelopes are returned to
us, and we are charged a fee).
1/20/25 - The
Final Outcome of Practicing Contemplative Prayer by
Ray Yungen, 1/20/25
The final outcome of contemplative prayer is interspirituality
(i.e., all paths lead to God). If you have truly grasped the
portrait I have tried to paint in my book, A Time of Departing,
and articles I have written, you have begun to see what this
term signifies. The focus of my criticism of mystical prayer
must be understood in the light of interspirituality. Just what
exactly is interspirituality? The premise behind
interspirituality is that divinity (God) is in all things
(panentheism), and the presence of God is in all religions;
there is a connecting together of all things, and through
mysticism (i.e., meditation) this state of divinity can be
recognized. Consequently, this is a premise that is based on and
upheld by an experience that occurs during a self-hypnotic
trance linking one to an unseen world rather than to the sound
doctrine of the Bible. It is important to understand that
interspirituality is a uniting of the world’s religions through
the common thread of mysticism. New Age teacher Wayne Teasdale,
a lay monk who coined the term interspirituality, says that
interspirituality is “the spiritual common ground which exists
among the world’s religions.”

1/7/25 - Gavin
Ortlund Completely Collapses On Roman Catholicism by
Ray Fava – Evangelical Dark Web, 1/7/25
Over the Christmas season, Gavin Ortlund decided to fully
abandon the Reformation, and that’s no exaggeration. Once
considered to be a premier Protestant apologist with a focus on
countering Roman Catholic claims, Ortlund has lately descended
into theological liberalism and far left political views. Now,
he is completely undermining his entire apologetic ministry with
a video he published called, “Are Catholics Christians? Why
Protestants Can Say YES.” Gavin does so by making a three-part
argument. Ortlund starts off his video by claiming that the view
of Catholics being Christians is the historic Protestant view.
He does so by pulling various quotes from the reformers as well
as some post-Reformation theologians. To be frank, it’s very
dangerous to frame an argument this way ...

Bentley Says He’s Been Given The Authority To ‘Cancel Death’ +
Heal Terminal Illnesses by Protestria, 1/4/25
Todd Bentley, the famous false teacher and wolf extraordinaire
(see endnotes), has unveiled his latest scheme to capitalize on
his recent emergency hospital stay, claiming that his
experiences gave him the power and authority to “cancel death”
and cure terminal illnesses. Six weeks ago, Bentley was taken to
the hospital by ambulance after experiencing unexpected
seizures. Within a day he’d recover, claiming he’d been
miraculously healed. Apart from using this event as a
fundraiser, we wondered how he would spin this to take advantage
of the goodwill. And now we know.
1/5/25 - Timeline
And Resources On The REAL Dr. Michael Brown by Church
Watch Central, 1/5/25
For decades the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) have been using
the Pentecostal and Charismatic ‘sheep skin’ to take over
churches and suppress Christians or Christian groups/churches
that have opposed them. Dr. Brown is one of the best examples of
being one of its enablers who has used his ‘influential
position’ and ‘Pentecostal/Charismatic’ sheepskin to further the
cause of the NAR. This article is a repository of relevant
documents, videos, PDFs, reports, tweets and posts that are
relevant to the controversial life and ministry of [recently
disgraced] Dr. Michael Brown. Its timeline and resources are
available for everyone to use for their content creator needs.
Dr Michael Brown, his FIRE Church and Line of Fire (LOF) program
is a practical example as to why the New Apostolic Reformation
cult is quite prepared to lie for its cause to further spread
its tentacles across the USA and other parts of the world.
1/12/25 - We
have a doctrinal emergency in the church by Mike
Oppenheimer, 1/12/25
I came to your church but I did not recognize your Jesus. Yes,
his name was the same but the name was not proclaimed as the
only way and the people acted very differently under the
anointing of a different Jesus. Do you see this? Have you seen
people falling, squirming, yelling and crawling, out of control,
all under what they claim are the auspices of the Holy Spirit's
power? If so, run from this. Your spiritual life depends on it.
These teachers promoting these activities have descended like a
swarm of locusts eating up all the truth, and there is little
left. They are replacing it with the distortions of their own
interpretations, not ashamed to call it a new revelation.

Dominionism. I wrote that it was “a work in progress” and that
it would periodically be updated. As things worked out, the
Discernment Research Group simply continued posting articles on
the Herescope blog that expanded on the original themes. With
the help of Dr. Orrel Steinkamp, we wrote extensively about
Dominionist theology originating in the pentecostal and
charismatic wing of the Church, particularly as it intersected
with American politics.

Governance: Brian Houston and James Morris Create New
Non-Profit Organizations by Trinity Foundation,
1/31/25
Following their departures from Hillsong Church and Gateway
Church, Brian Houston and James Morris have established new
churches using different legal structures to determine how the
churches will be governed. Traditionally, articles of
incorporation and bylaws have determined how churches are
governed by specifying whether or not church attendees have
voting rights or if church governance is reserved for a board of
directors or board of elders. More recently, Brian Houston’s
prior church Hillsong popularized the practice of creating
churches as limited liability companies, based on legal advice
from attorneys.

Casts Out Satan, And Bethel Church Casts Out Shawn Bolz

“Here we are. Bethel Church, the great empire of counterfeit

of a fraud? For taking things too far? For doing the exact same
thing they all do, but with a little less finesse? It’s like
watching a con man get banned from a casino—not for cheating,
but for being too obvious about it.” It was only a matter of
time before Bethel Church, the grand cathedral of charismatic
charlatanry, decided to throw one of its own to the wolves. And
who better than Shawn Bolz—a man whose entire career has been
built on the kind of “prophecy” that conveniently aligns with
whatever the audience wants to hear?

Ten Evangelical Stories Of 2024 by Ray Fava –

[There’s a] disparity between the laymen and the clergy who are

between White Evangelicals and every other religious
demographic, especially Modern Jews, one of the few blocs that
Kamala Harris improved upon. This election further highlighted
the futility of the term “Judeo-Christians.” With 2025 here, we
can now give out top ten stories of 2024. It was difficult to
narrow down the list of scandals that made the cut. The list has
a lot of bad but also some reasons for optimism in 2025.
1/10/25 - “Los
Angeles Fires Push Crews to Limits as Critics Blame Government
Policy” by Brad Jones, The Epoch Times, 1/10/25
Some local critics have pointed to the council’s $17.6 million
fire department budget cut—initially proposed at $23 million by
the mayor—as a major concern.
As four massive fires engulf Los Angeles, critics are blaming
the government for putting lives, homes, and businesses at risk.
Amid it all, Sam Digiovanna, chief at the Verdugo Fire Academy
in Glendale, Calif., told The Epoch Times that more than 1,000
firefighters are doing their best “to stop the forward progress
of this fire” and “get a containment line around it.” “Our first
priority is the protection of life, which means a lot of times
we’re evacuating people and making sure people get out safely,”
said Digiovanna, a former fire chief in Monrovia, part of Los
Angeles County.

A deeply antisemitic, pro-Hezbollah imam is set to give a
benediction at Trump’s inauguration next Monday, and many Trump
supporters who had been happy to see Trump’s repeated
affirmations that he would support, not betray, America’s ally
Israel are now scratching their heads. What’s going on? Was this
just an oversight, a failure to vet the Dearborn Imam Husham
al-Husainy properly? Or does it herald a real policy shift in
the incoming Trump administration? There are other signs of such
a shift, with the chief among them being the fact that Israel
and Hamas are close to a ceasefire in Gaza.

Public Trust In The Church Continues To Erode by The
Dissenter, 1/19/25
“When you claim to represent the eternal and holy God, your
failures carry a weight that no financial guru or celebrity
influencer could ever fathom. A scandal in the church isn’t just
a lapse in judgment, it’s a betrayal of office on a cosmic
scale.”For centuries, at least in the West, the church held an
unparalleled position of trust and reverence. They were seen as
the stewards of moral clarity in a world ever-increasing in
cultural chaos. They were the shepherds who guided their flocks
with conviction and commitment to the unchanging word of God.
1/23/25 - The
Celebrity Pastor Phenomenon Is Selling Out The Gospel For 30
Pieces Of Silver by The Dissenter, 1/23/25
“This is the rot at the heart of the so-called “pastorpreneur”
phenomenon. These men—and, increasingly, women—have bartered
their pulpits for stages, their organs for smoke machines and
rock bands, and worst of all, their Bibles for TED Talks.”
Michael Jackson moonwalked his way into the hearts of millions,
perhaps billions, of people around the globe, a glittering icon
who could do no wrong in the eyes of his adoring fans. They
cheered, screamed, and wept at the mere sight of him, entranced
by the aura of untouchable greatness that surrounded him. But
then came the headlines—the lawsuits, the whispers, the
grotesque truths that couldn’t be silenced by a high note or a
perfectly timed spin.

Highly Paid Ministry Leaders Revealed (Franklin Graham Makes

Some of the organizations that have either partnered with
churches or changed their designation to identify on paper as
‘churches,’ thus enabling them to withhold their form 990
include “CRU/Campus Crusade for Christ, The Navigators, Gideons
International, Willow Creek Association, Billy Graham
Evangelistic Association, Joyce Meyer Ministries, Denison Forum,
and Ethnos360/New Tribes Mission.” MinistryWatch is an
organization designed to empower donors to Christian ministries.
They do this by “profiling public Christian charities, churches,
and parachurch ministries” and then reporting on the results to
“limit consequences of scams and prevention of fraudulent
activity, promote better allocations of giving, encourage
intelligent questions of organizational structure, financial
health, and advance the idea of organizational transparency and
best practices.”

A. Mcmahon Steps Down From Berean Call by T.A. McMahon
– Berean Call, 1/28/25
As I look back over the decades since I started The Berean Call
(TBC), there are three words that come to my mind: “Thank you,
Jesus!” Whoa! Hold on a moment. Many have mistakenly thought
that Dave Hunt was the head of TBC because they misunderstood
the ministry’s major function. From the beginning, its purpose
was to free Dave up to do research, write books, write articles,
debate those opposed to the gospel, confront those changing the
gospel, and expose those deceiving the body of Christ with
“oppositions of science falsely so called” (such as
psychotherapy) as indicated in 1 Timothy:6:20

“This is a pivotal statement that underscores the

not support these evil practices.” On Tuesday, President Trump
issued a new executive order aimed at safeguarding children from
the transgender cult. This order addresses one of the biggest
evils threatening our society today: the chemical and surgical
mutilation of children in the name of transgenderism.

Executive Order Seeks End To K-12 ‘Indoctrination’ by
Michael Katz – Newsmax, 2/2/25 - “The order also will reinstate
the 1776 Commission that Trump created during his first term to
promote patriotic education and counter lessons that divide
Americans on race and slavery.” President Donald Trump signed
three executive orders Wednesday that build upon his campaign
promises of fundamental changes to the U.S. education system.
The executive orders, the latest in a flurry of presidential
actions Trump has taken since Inauguration Day, focus on ending
“indoctrination” in K-12 schools, launching investigations into
antisemitic campus protests, and enacting a federal school
choice initiative.
2/6/25 - No,

“Enter Russell Moore, a man who abandoned his post at the ERLC,
because, get this, the Southern Baptist Convention wasn’t woke
enough, only to take up residence at the thoroughly apostate
Christianity Today, a publication that long ago exchanged
theological fidelity for 30 pieces of leftist activism. Leftists
love them some Jesus—so long as He can be twisted into a
progressive mascot for their latest political crusade. But the
moment He starts talking about sin, repentance, or judgment,
they promptly shove Him back into the box labeled “outdated
religious figure.”
2/8/25 - Trump’s
Appointment Of ‘Heretic’ Paula White As Leader Of White House
Faith Office Causes Stir by The Express Tribune,
2/8/25
“This is the worst decision President Trump has made since
taking office… Paula White is a heretic, who pedals the
prosperity gospel. Plus, women should not be pastors according
to The Bible.” President Donald Trump’s decision to appoint
Paula White, a controversial televangelist and longtime
spiritual adviser, as head of the reestablished White House
faith office has ignited widespread criticism, especially from
within the Christian community. White, 57, is known for her
association with the prosperity gospel movement, which teaches
that faith can lead to material wealth and personal well-being.
This belief has led many Orthodox Christian leaders to label her
a “heretic.” Her appointment has prompted sharp reactions across
social media, with critics questioning her qualifications and
theological stance.

1/5/25 - Gilgamesh
lied! by Sandy Simpson 1/5/25 - Biblical Genesis
account vs. the Gilgamesh story.
Gilgamesh was the ruler of Uruk and assembler of the Epic
of Gilgamesh about himself and his exploits.
He was a giant. By
modern measurements, Gilgamesh (allegedly) stood 5.5 metres tall
(approx. 18 feet). (https://uniavisen.dk/en/gilgamesh-the-4000-year-old-giant-who-speaks-to-our-times/)
The knowledge of giants from archeological finds has been
suppressed in the past few centuries, especially by the
Smithsonian, that hasattempted to round up every giant skeleton
found in North America for instance, presumably to store in the
warehouse at the Smithsonian (https://www.cnn.com/2023/08/22/us/smithsonian-apologizes-racial-brain-collection-cec/index.html). I believe the reason
for this is that scientists do not want this information in the
public square as it defies theirviews of evolution and genetics
and tends to prove the accounts in the Bible to be true.
1/9/25 - The
glory that awaits those who overcome by Mike
Oppenheimer, 1/9/25
John 16:33 “these things I have spoken to you, that in Me you
may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be
of good cheer, I have overcome the world." 1 John 4:3-4 “ And
this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was
coming, and is now already in the world. You are of God, little
children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is
greater than he who is in the world.” As we receive Christ's
nature from believing in the gospel we the by faith become
transformed from the inside out. As we have his light, the
Spirit of truth is in us; and it should be seen by all as a
witness in the darkness of this world. Matt 5:16 “Let your light
so shine before men, that they may see your good works and
glorify your Father in heaven.” Meaning we are on display as his
representatives. We are the light of the world until He returns.
1/15/25 - Follow
the Path by Herescope, 1/15/25
Why would a Christian want to warn about the dangers of heresy?
Are discerners just being busybodies, acting like know-it-alls,
minding other people’s business, looking for trouble, trying to
agitate, or being contentious? (We should work very hard to not
be like this!) A good motive for warning someone about the
dangers of heresy is because we love them and we are concerned
for their walk with the Lord. Another good reason for warning is
because it is a duty found in the Scriptures. The Apostle Paul
provides a good example to us of a loving warning in Acts 20:31:
“Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years
I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.”
Another good reason to warn is because we may happen to
understand the dangers of a particular heresy. We may have a
prior firsthand experience that cannot be easily discounted or
dismissed.
1/21/25 - Do
you believe in the God of the gospel? by Mike
Oppenheimer, 1/21/25
Will the real Jesus, the only Begotten Son of God be made known
to all? "the god of this age has blinded the minds" 2
Corinthians 4:4. Within the church, in America, despite more
than nine out of 10 Americans agreeing Jesus was a historical
figure, what do they actually believe about Him? A survey from
the Barna Research Group surveying more than 4,000 U.S. adults
online and by phone suggests Americans are not in agreement on
the Messiah of Christianity because of this they have failed to
successfully pass on their faith of the Bible to succeeding
generations.
1/27/25 - Understanding
who Jesus is by Mike Oppenheimer, 1/27/25
Jesus being God in-flesh is not just an important point but THE
point in all of Scripture. If you miss this you gain nothing
eternal from believing in him. You can believe or do all the
Bible says; you can say He died for you, that he heals and does
miracles, that he is the greatest of any human or any prophet in
history and you can still miss the salvation freely given
through his name! Why? Not knowing WHO actually is leaves you
out of the kingdom. Those that deny his deity and say he is only
a man. This is certainly the common belief of all the cult
groups, and schisms. For if you believed Moses, you would
believe Me; for he wrote about Me . But if you do not believe
his writings, how will you believe My words? " (John 5:46-47)
2/3/25 - Are
Jews the Synagogue of Satan? by Mike Oppenheimer,
2/3/25
The Bible separates mankind into two categories, Jews,
(Israelites, Hebrews, who received the law of God, the oracles
of God) and the Gentiles who did not. Everyone on earth is
either born a Jew (Hebrew) or a Gentile. The New Testament adds
a third category, spiritually; Christians (I Cor. 10:32), which
are made of people who believe the gospel from both groups.
Because of Jesus, the Jewish Messiah being crucified the middle
wall of partition was removed Eph.2:11. The Church is not a
nation like Israel but a spiritual entity of believers in
Israel's Messiah- Yeshua Ha Mashiach, called the body of Christ
on earth. 1 Cor. 12:13 “ by one Spirit we were all baptized into
one body--whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free--and
have all been made to drink into one Spirit.” Rom. 9:24 “ even
us whom He called, not of the Jews only, but also of the
Gentiles? REVELATION 2:9 To the church of Smyrna Jesus said Rv.
2:9 “ and I know the blasphemy of those who say they are Jews
and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan.” First, we need to
understand this is not a church but a synagogue, which is
strictly a Jewish place of worship formed by a grouping of Jews
in a city. What it is not referring to is all Jews everywhere.
The answer is found in the text, they say they are Jews but they
are not. Jesus is not condemning all Jews only those who lie
about it (Rv.3:9).

1/2/25 - A
sin offering - not an offering of Sin! by Mike
Oppenheimer, 1/2/25
So many complicate the simple gospel. This can take place for
various reasons, some from their own misunderstanding, others
try to ameliorate it. You can be sure that when they teach
Jesus became sinful or a sinner on the cross and then went to
hell to pay for our sins that is not the Bibles Gospel. They
either know this fact of the Bible and are unsaved by the true
gospel, or, they are in error, being mislead and misleading
others. However, when shown they are wrong from the Scripture
will they submit to the Word of God and the truth and admit
it? If not then they solidify they are not saved by the true
Gospel, nor the real Jesus. Because genuine believers want to
know what is true and not be misled. If you are listening to
their error (no matter what else right they have) you are
being misled and are participating in a false gospel.

Important! "His
Name,
the only Name" by Sandy Simpson, 9/5/14
Zechariah 14:9 "The LORD will be king over the whole earth. On
that day there will be one LORD, and his name the only name."
What are the implications of this prophecy in Zechariah?
(1) That before the return of Christ there have always been many
"gods" worshipped in many names. (2) That the saints who
return with Christ (Zechariah 14:5), those who were Raptured,
are the ones who had already believed in the name of the Lord
Jesus Christ. Those remaining are forced to acknowledge
that there is "no other name under heaven given to mankind by
which we must be saved" because they were left behind in the
Rapture and survived the Tribulation.
UPDATED! Questions
For
Those Who Claim The "Supreme Beings" Of The Nations Are The
True God by Sandy Simpson, 3/17/15
I have some questions for those of the World Christian
Gathering of Indigenous People (WCGIP) adherents such as Don
Richardson, Daniel Kikawa, Richard Twiss (deceased), Terry
LeBlanc, Danny Lehman, Aloha Ke Akua, YWAM as well as many in
the Emergent Church (EC) ... the questions arise from their
claim that the "supreme beings" of the nations are all the True
God, YHWH, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. You can
read more on this subject in our book "Idolatry
In
Their Hearts" or in the WCGIP
section of my site.

This list represents the best articles available to Christians
regarding issues having to do with the Third Wave/New Apostolic
Reformation and its influence on Christendom. ACT does not
endorse everything written by these authors, but the articles on
the DITC site represent sound biblical apologetics and every one
of these authors are teaching, both explicitly and implicitly,
the core doctrines of the Faith. They are all good
resources for information on what is happening in the churches
today, and so their contact information is presented for your
edification. We hope this will help those who oppose the
truth realize just how many biblical Christian authors,
missionaries, pastors, teachers, professors, and thousands of
others OPPOSE the heresy being taught in the Third Wave movement
today. We also hope that those who still love the truth will use
the vast resources available via this page to study to show
themselves approved workmen for the Lord Jesus Christ.
That means, pick up your Bible, dig deep into the Word of God,
and find out what is being taught and done in opposition to
those truths and who is doing it. Be a Berean (Acts
17:11)!
