(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.

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.

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.

Why False Teachers Have So Many Followers
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this article.
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.

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.

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.

vs. Interactive-style Christianity
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 article.
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 new. The righteous continue to live by faith, while the proud boast in their drunken state.

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.

Is a Warning to the TRUE Church Today
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this article.
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
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".

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.

"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.

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.

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".

I received a letter from Peter Popoff.

Occult Practices in the Churches
How the occult has been fully integrated into many Christian lives and fellowships

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, and the harvesters are angels.

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
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this article.
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.

The Lord's Prayer, Our Prayer

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 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.

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.

"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.

am not “anointed”, don’t understand the work of

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.

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.

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".

I received a letter from Peter Popoff. This infamous televangelist, in the past, was found to be guilty of wearing an earpiece so that his accomplices in his sound booth could feed him personal information on people in his audience while he was claiming to get personal messages directly from God. This letter proves that, not only is he back as a regular on TV, he is also back to his old tricks.

Occult Practices in the Churches
How the occult has been fully integrated into many Christian lives and fellowships

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.

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 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, and the harvesters are angels.

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
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this article.
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.

The Lord's Prayer, Our Prayer

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 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.

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.

"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.

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.

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

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

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".

Peter Popoff
Back to his old tricks!
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this article.
I received a letter from Peter Popoff. This infamous televangelist, in the past, was found to be guilty of wearing an earpiece so that his accomplices in his sound booth could feed him personal information on people in his audience while he was claiming to get personal messages directly from God. This letter proves that, not only is he back as a regular on TV, he is also back to his old tricks.

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.

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, and the harvesters are angels.

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

Bradford Pear Christianity
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this article.
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.

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 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"

Will 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.

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 mentioned in this booklet.

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.

One of Satan"s Final Masquerades
by Sandy Simpson
This DVD is a message based on this article.
2 Corinthians 11:14 And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.
Satan often disguises himself with the purpose of deceiving people. One way in which I believe he is putting on a masquerade is by appearing as "Mary" to millions of people worldwide.

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 source links as well.

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 Angley, John Bevere, Markus Bishop, Juanita Bynum, Morris Cerullo, Kim Clement, Paul Crouch, Creflo Dollar, Jesse Duplantis, Marilyn Hickey, Brian Houston, Rodney Howard-Browne, Larry Huch, Bishop Eddie L. Long, Clarence McClendon, Joyce Meyer, Myles Munroe, Steve Munsey, Mike Murdock, Rod Parsley, Peter Popoff, Fred Price, Oral Roberts, R.W.

His Name, The Only Name

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"?

Deceiving The Nations!
4-DVD Series
Critical Missiological Issue!
The "Indigenous People's" (IPM) or "First Nations" movement is an unbiblical movement teaching heresies and doctrines of demons. It is being spread worldwide by YWAM, Don Richardson, John Dawson, Richard Twiss, Terry LeBlanc, Daniel Kikawa and many other adherents. The IPM or World Christian Gathering On Indigenous People is full of the false teachings of the Third Wave, New Apostolic Reformation (NAR), Word-Faith, Dominionism, Latter Rain and many other false theological systems. But it does have it's own distinctives that are driven by the works of Daniel Kikawa, Richard Twiss, and Don Richardson in particular. They are teaching Christians to "redeem" their cultures by worshipping their former gods, pretending they are YHWH.

"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 leaders of the church. This is a 2-DVD set.

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".

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.

those who like to listen to programs in their car, etc.
and don't have time to watch a video. The audio

I am in the process of adding that feature to all the

same for a flash drive as for a DVD/CD ($10. plus

can put the HD version on a flash drive! This will
help those with the new computers that come without DVD

"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 or download here.

6/29/25 - Two
Important Books Now Posted! at Herescope,
6/29/25
We are happy to report that we have been given special
permission to post NEW EVANGELICALISM: The New World
Order by Paul Smith and From Which Well Are You
Drinking? Exposing the Dangers in the Emerging Church
Movement by David Winscott on our Herescope website.
Here is the back story. One day, several years after I
co-authored our 2004 monograph The Pied Pipers of
Purpose, I received a telephone call from Pastor Paul
Smith of Calvary Chapel, brother of Chuck Smith. He said
he was quite interested to read our factual information
and analysis about Peter Drucker, the business guru who
developed the 3-legged stool paradigm for social
transformation. Paul then told me a remarkable story of
how Peter Drucker was actively wooing megachurch leaders
and pastors during the 1980s to persuade them to join up
with his giant social experiment on evangelicalism. This
story of Peter Drucker’s pervasive influence, with key
background information, is told in Paul Smith’s book NEW
EVANGELICALISM: The New World Order. Paul Smith provides
an historical account of the deep compromises of the
past several generations of evangelical leaders. These
concessions have left the current church in a state of
“crisis and confusion.” Pastor Paul traces “the seminal
seeds that corrupted not only the major denominational
churches, but specifically the conservative believing
folks in these churches.” This is a book about the
history of the postmodern movement within
evangelicaldom, and especially the roles that Fuller
Theological Seminary, Bob Buford of Leadership Network,
and Peter Drucker played in shaping the leaders that
would guide the Emerging (Emergent) Church Movement,
Neo(New)-Calvinism, etc.

‘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.
Unfortunately, the authors have drunk heavily from the Spiritual Formation Movement that was invented by Roman Catholic monks and infused into evangelicalism via Richard Foster (p. 79). This includes Benedictine rhythms, (p. 68); praying the Psalms (pp. 76, 79), keeping the divine hours (p. 78); practicing silence (p. 79) so that the Holy Spirit’s voice can be heard (p. 80), and using other mystical spiritual disciplines (p. 87). The authors admit that in order to accept these ideas, one must have the presupposition that God still speaks today apart from Scripture (p. 80). Turning to mystical leadings supposedly from the Holy Spirit represents an important flaw in The Council. The danger is to rely on extrabiblical communication that a council assumes is from God and make decisions on that basis. This sets up any leadership team to make serious errors because it believes God has spoken directly to their hearts. The truth is that God has revealed His Word in Scripture and not in mystical voices, hunches, and feelings. Christian councils should carefully analyze biblical principles and directives and make decisions on this basis, not expect the Lord to speak to them beyond the Bible. These flaws render this book of limited value.

for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather
than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen” Romans
1:24-25 Want to know what happens when you combine the
false gospel of Rome with the warnings of Romans 1? You
get a rainbow-draped seance of self-worship, performed
in God’s name.
7/6/25 - Leaving
the Catholic Church Behind to Follow Jesus
by Anonymous, 7/6/25
I finally figured out that Catholicism is
merely a system of control, and I had to violently
rebel against the notion that I would go to Hell for
rejecting it. Over the past few years, I’ve seen so
many of my old classmates falling away from doctrines
Catholics believed in while continuing to attend Mass
regularly. Now so many of them are embracing gay
marriage, “love is love” at pride parades,
gay/predatory priests, abortion on demand, heavy
drinking, and acceptance of illegal drugs. The final
blow for me was being a part of a group called
Catholic Youth Renewal Team in Seattle back in
1984/85. Very strange things happened in that
charismatic organization, which allowed many teachings
involving cultish practices. Bluntly, most Catholics
don’t read their Bibles, and Catholicism does not lead
to any meaningful changes for the better in their
lives. In fact, it is even more dangerous than being
of no faith at all because Catholics feel they can
simply confess off their sins to a priest and continue
the same sins. That is so wrong. As for me, I’m done
with it, the whole thing.

6/11/25 - Rick
Warren Goes on Catholic TV to Call for Unity Between
Catholics and Christians by The Dissenter,
6/11/25
(Rick) Warren then goes on to argue that even though
Protestants and Catholics will never be united on
doctrine, they are still brothers and sisters in Christ
and should pray together, fellowship together, and join
hands together in unity. But what Warren, like so many
of his empty-minded kind fail to understand, is that
while Catholics may say they believe in these things, in
practice and in definition, they are completely
different. Catholics may say they believe Christ died on
the cross for our sins, but to them, that simply means
that Christ made it possible for them to earn their
salvation through good works—something the Scriptures
clearly teach is a damnable belief.

6/4/25 - Andy
Stanley’s Church Doubles Down on Transgender Ideology
by Alan Shlemon – Stand to Reason, 6/4/25
“A gender-dysphoric child who finds “comfort” at North
Point is likely to be encouraged to socially,
hormonally, and surgically transition.” After
attending Andy Stanley’s Unconditional Conference in
October 2023, I realized his church (North Point)
promoted pro-gay and pro-trans theology. I, among many
others, called out their unbiblical teaching. Many
prayed they would repent.
6/6/25 - N.T.
Wright Says “Adam” And “Eve” Were ‘Primal Pair Of
Hominids’ Living Among Other Hominids When ‘Some
Strange Force’ Called Them by Protestia,
6/6/25
Famed New Testament scholar N.T. Wright shared more
about his long-standing position on the early chapters
of Genesis, offering that not only is it poetry that is
not to be taken literally, but that “Adam” and “Eve”
were simply a primal pair of hominids (a type of
primates that first appeared 5-7 million years ago)
living among other hominids when “some strange force or
power” called to be a part of “the human” project. We
recently wrote about Wright after he suggested abortion
may be a tragic yet best allowable option in cases of
rape, incest, or for the mental health of the mother who
can’t deal with a child with physical and mental
deformities, and after he offered that belief in the
bodily resurrection of Christ is not necessary to be a
Christian.
6/10/25 - Theologian
N. T. Wright’s Atrocious Take on Abortion by
Ken Ham, 6/10/25
About five years ago, I blogged about a song with the
refrain, “Oh, I believe in Genesis,” performed by two
scholars: theologian N. T. Wright and scientist Francis
Collins, neither of whom actually believe Genesis.
Produced by the pro-evolution organization BioLogos
(which exists to convince Christians to abandon a
historical Genesis), the song made clear that they’re
both ardent evolutionists who simply tack God onto the
process. So I can’t say I was surprised when I saw a
recent headline about N. T. Wright! Dr. Wright was asked
a question about abortion on his Ask NT Wright Anything
podcast (I wrote last year about the terrible answer he
gave on that program to a question about science and the
Bible). And his answer was biblically and theologically
atrocious! But that’s not surprising because I find that
when a person compromises Genesis with outside beliefs
(like evolution/millions of years), it has a detrimental
effect on other areas such as we see here regarding his
answer on abortion.
6/18/25 - UPDATED!
The New Age teachings of Mike Adams by Mike
Oppenheimer, 6/18/25
Mike Adams who is known to many as ‘the Health Ranger,’
is popular and used on many alternative health and news
sites, and Christian websites. He says he has been
feeling a strong pull to study the Bible, to the degree
that he has started his own church and is preaching his
own unique, unbiblical interpretations. He apparently
did not prepare as other called pastors do to teach the
Word accurately. He went into ministry without being
grounded in the core doctrines; and it shows. Adams has
no statement of faith on his Natural Abundance church
website. Under articles, none are found (as of 4/2025).
We need to understand that Mike Adams is teaching the
Bible with a new age view, an open interpretation using
a combination of other spiritual concepts; both
traditional and untraditional. This will become apparent
as we look into the quotes from his sermons. Some
sermons are filled with these teachings, others are more
subtle. He does have a constant underlying theme, that
life is a simulation. Yes, much like the movie The
Matrix, he speaks of being red pilled to escape it.
“spiritual power through the teachings of Christ and how
Christ is like super red pill.”(028 Mark 5-6 God infused
us all with healing MIRACLES.) While Adams speaks of
himself as being a Christian and teaches the Bible (not
from it, but of it, by his own personal perspective). I
see there is something else operating in his
interpretations that has formed his worldview. Clearly,
it is not Christianity in the Bible. The majority of His
beliefs on Jesus, salvation, and the world are not what
Christians throughout history have believed from the
Scripture. Read Part 1.

Bethel Star Confirms Moral Rot And Cover-Ups In CCM
Worship Industry, Including Bethel by The
Dissenter, 6/27/25
In 2019, I wrote that the greased and lubed celebrity
machinery of modern Christian music wasn’t just
distracting—it was hijacking the very glory of God. I
pointed out how artists chase chart ranks, fame, social
media clout—and lose the weightier matters: God’s truth,
Christ’s exclusivity, the cross. I had mentioned Lauren
Daigle and Lecrae as case studies, frontrunners who
traded gospel clarity for applause, becoming idols unto
themselves and complicit in a gospel-lite, idol‑driven
pop culture. Fast-forward to today—and an insider at the
top of the heap is spilling the same tea.

Shawn Bolz continues to discredit himself more and

tongues. Once a prominent and beloved prophet, Bolz
has been canceled by several major charismatics over
multiple allegations that he has been using secretly
gathered social media information to make accurate
‘prophetic words’ over people, including one that
nearly led to the death of a young woman.

Counseling Ministry by The Dissenter, 6/5/25
“Vischer and The Holy Post have officially partnered
with BetterHelp—an online therapy platform that
moonlights as an LGBTQ affirmation ministry with a
therapy license.” So how did we go from talking tomatoes
with Bible verses and lessons on “doing unto others as
you would have them do unto you” to full on queer
theory, pronouns, and a gender identity crisis? Phil
Vischer, who is best known for creating the
Christian-themed-but-filled-with-bad-doctrine children’s
cartoon series, Veggie Tales, has made a new name for
himself among the rising Evangelical Beast of Revelation
known as the Woke Church.

Antisemitism and the Role of the Media Fueling Hate
Against the Jews by Jonathan S. Tobin, Jewish
News Syndicate, 6/8/25
It was no coincidence that on the same day that much of
the mainstream media swallowed Hamas lies about Israelis
slaughtering people in the Gaza Strip, that another
violent antisemitic attack occurred in the United
States. What happened in Boulder, Colo., on June 1, when
an Egyptian immigrant attempted to incinerate a group of
American Jews, many of them elderly, who were walking in
a public space on behalf of the remaining Israeli
hostages being held by Hamas, was a horrifying crime. Click

Sesame Street Is Grooming Your Children by The
Dissenter, 6/9/25
“The message is loud, the costumes are bright, and the
damage is deliberate. What used to be a quiet corner of
educational television has been hijacked by activists
with sock puppets and scripts from GLAAD.” Once upon a
time, Sesame Street was the gentle hum of a sunny day,
where Big Bird helped kids spell “apple” and Oscar’s
biggest sin was being grouchy. But somewhere between
Bert and Ernie’s friendship bracelets and Michelle
Obama’s kale evangelism, the street corner got bulldozed
and rebuilt into a glitter-soaked gender studies
classroom.

to bar churches with women pastors fails again at SBC
meeting by Bob Smietana, RNS, 6/12/25
For the second year in a row, a move to bar churches
with women pastors from the nation’s largest Protestant
denomination failed. A proposed amendment to the
Southern Baptist Convention’s constitution, which would
have kept any church that affirms, appoints or employs a
woman “as a pastor of any kind” from belonging to the
SBC, got 60.74% of the vote Wednesday (June 11), just
shy of the two-thirds majority needed to move forward. A
similar proposal failed last year on a second vote.
6/12/25 - Allies
no longer by Melanie Phillips, 6/12/25
Two members of Israel’s ruling coalition, Itamar
Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich, have been targeted with
sanctions by the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New
Zealand and Norway. You don’t have to support Ben-Gvir
and Smotrich to see how loathsome this move is. Never
before have these countries sanctioned members of an
ally’s government. And this during a global onslaught
against Israel in which it’s being accused of war
crimes, human rights abuses and genocidal extermination
of which it’s not only innocent but is itself the
victim. The statement by the foreign ministers of the
UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Norway underlines
the already all-too obvious fact that the UK, Canada,
Australia, New Zealand and Norway are very much part of
that onslaught.

by Clear Truth Media, 6/13/25
I reached out to Mars Hill producer Mike Cosper and CT
CEO Timothy Dalyrmple to ask about the BetterHelp
sponsorships. Neither responded by the time of
publication. The BetterHelp ads are hardly the only
signs of CT’s softening on the LGBTQ issue. Throughout
the Mars Hill series, Cosper turns to gay- and
trans-affirming theologians and academics to act as
experts. Feminist historian Kristen Kobes Du Mez, for
instance, spends much of her air time lamenting an
American church culture dominated by toxic masculinity
and patriarchy. The show also prominently features
pro-LGBTQ pastor Doug Pagitt, who once condemned Fuller
seminary for expelling a student for marrying someone of
the same sex.

The issue the world has always faced is control, self or
governmental control. But there is a third choice, our
maker - God. The only one who deserves control is the
Lord, whom we can trust with our lives; no man who is
well-meaning is perfect. When the subject of God is in
front of us, various views come into play, of utter
rejection or acceptance. Then the definition of God and
which religion becomes the main point.

Coalition Exposed: The Newest Liberal Curriculum
Infiltrating Churches by Ray Fava –
Evangelical Dark Web, 6/17/25
“The American Values Coalition recently hosted a
discussion between the extremely woke Richard Mouw,
president of Fuller Theological Seminary, and Adam
Taylor, president of Sojourners, a gay affirming,
illegal alien amnesty-promoting outlet.” Deep-pocketed
liberals have been trying to subvert Evangelicalism by
funding organizations that present themselves as
theologically sound for decades. A recent attempt worth
highlighting was The After Party curriculum, which was
put together by Curtis Chang, David French and Russell
Moore.
6/19/25 - Why
Do 70% of Young People Leave the Church in College?
by Ken Ham, 6/19/25
I’ve often shared the statistic that two-thirds of
young people will leave the church by the time they
reach college age—and very few return. I was reminded
of this recently when I saw a post someone shared on
social media that said, "Fact: 70–88% of youth born in
evangelical homes leave the faith after one year in a
secular college. Maybe. Just maybe. We start to focus
on more doctrine, more ability to explain what and why
they believe, and less performance, less trend, less
show, less entertainment." Now, I’ve basically been
saying the same thing for years—decades! There’s been
such a focus in American churches on entertaining
young people so they’ll want to come to church and
very little emphasis on doctrine, theology,
apologetics, and the gospel. So many young people grow
up with a shallow faith, no answers to the skeptical
questions of our day, and a worldview foundation that
says man determines truth (the same foundation our
culture has).
6/22/25 - Yes,
God is 'Anti-Gay' by Rosaria Butterfield
& Jared Moore – Clear Truth Media, 6/22/25
“God loves His creation and the created order, and
homosexuality is, at its root, rebellion against the
created order. Homosexuality is found in the fallen
flesh, forbidden by the law of God, and overcome in the
Savior, and this is part of the good news of the
gospel.” Is God anti-gay? Yes, God is anti-gay. The God
of the Bible is anti-gay, and the gods of this world are
pro-gay. We have walked the long road with prodigals and
their parents. Some have been led by the nose by the
false idea that homosexuality is a permanent feature of
some people’s humanity and that God loves
homosexuality…. This grievous heresy has denied an
entire generation of young people the repentance needed
to fight sin and grow in Christ. We want you to know the
truth: you need to hate your sin without hating
yourself.
6/23/25 - Left-wing
summer riot scheme laid out: Names, numbers and
receipts included by Refolver, 6/23/25
It’s become as predictable as heat waves and
mosquitoes: every summer, the radical left finds a new
excuse to unleash chaos on America’s streets. It
kicked off in full force with George Floyd’s so-called
“summer of love,” a blood-soaked, fiery spectacle that
left cities burned to the ground, a trail of injured
and dead bodies, and police departments damaged and
demoralized. Since then, like clockwork, they’ve
churned out one outrage after another. Climate
tantrums that block highways and ruin livelihoods. “No
King” protests that vandalize statues and harass
everyday Americans. And now, right on cue, they’re
rioting to protect illegals from ICE, turning US
neighborhoods into lawless war zones, all to keep
America’s borders wide open and the Dems new illegal
voting bloc intact. And it’s not just throwing rocks.
It got a heck of a lot more dangerous than that.
Meanwhile, the usual talking heads on cable news sit
there with a straight face and tell the American
people that white, male Trump supporters are the “real
threat” to their precious democracy. Not only does the
radical left whip up these mobs into a mouth-foaming
frenzy, but they also bankroll them, using your money.
Yes, you heard that right. They funnel taxpayer
dollars through an endless web of shady nonprofits,
activist groups, and lobbying arms, all feeding an
army of scrawny street soldiers who riot, block
traffic, assault police, and intimidate anyone who
stands in their way.

“When the arc of history seemed to bend toward

trans. Hard and soft power went all in on this
strategy. What happened is different. Transing kids,
platforming drag queens, and grooming children with
comprehensive sex education have tainted same-sex
marriage and the Gay Pride gambit among many. We are
passing Peak Pride as a result.” The air is coming out
of the Rainbow balloon. Pride parades and festivals
have suffered budget deficits, bled corporate
sponsorships and had poorer attendance since 2023, the

Pays $70K For Gay ‘Throuple’ To Get Their Mitts On A

“This isn’t just some lefty feel-good headline for
Amex’s HR department—it’s a well-oiled,
corporate-funded pipeline that makes the process as
easy as possible. According to Mitch, one of the
“throuples,” it’s all outsourced and systemized. You
just open a file, submit your paperwork, and voilà,
the reimbursements start rolling in….According to the
website, Amex is just the tip of the iceberg….other
corporations are doing the exact same thing, quietly
bankrolling these surrogate-for-hire baby mamas for
men behind the scenes.” There was a time when
corporate America supported families… real families,
and upheld traditional values that reflect the vast
majority of this country. But those days are clearly
gone. Today, companies like American Express aren’t
just bending to woke ideology; they’re twisting
themselves into pretzels to fund it, even when it
crosses extreme moral lines.

6/2/25 - John
calling Jesus the Word by Mike Oppenheimer,
6/2/25
God has spoken to mankind throughout history. To hold to
his Word is to hold to the Lord, this is why John calls
Jesus the Word. For all that God communicated to us in
history, his revelation of who He is, is found in the
Son who is ‘the Word who became flesh.” John uses the
synonym ‘the word’ for the Son using the term “the Word”
in John.1:1 to convey that the Son is the creator in
Gen.1:1. That this Word, is a divine person, has come
into the world to reveal the Father.John presents the
Logos as a pre-existent eternal being. By calling Jesus
the Word, it meant he embodied the full revelation of
God to mankind in a man. The Word is used in a
metaphorical sense, as a person accomplishing God’s
will.
6/7/25 - The
Genesis Seed conflict in the Scripture b Mike
Oppenheimer, 6/7/25
The apostle Paul makes it absolutely clear in Gal. 3:16
“Now to Abraham and his Seed were the promises made. He
does not say, "And to seeds," as of many, but as of one,
"And to your Seed ," who is Christ.” That law was
active, till the Seed should come. Gal 3:19 means the
Old covenant would be replaced by the new (Jer.31:30)
The seed comes from a specific people that God has
covenanted with, the Jewish people (Jn.4:22b). There are
those who do not understand the Scripture and what has
taken place and have invented a seed war from the Bible,
Christ defeated Satan’s rule by sins influence by his
crucifixion, (the gospel). We who believe the gospel are
given power to overcome as individuals, to rule over our
sin nature and spread to others the same message of
overcoming. Read Part 1

6/21/25 - The book
of Enoch compared to the Bible by Mike
Oppenheimer, 6/21/25
Enoch did not write any book, these books with his name
on them are not from him, there is no sequence of any
manuscript to arrive at the conclusion this book is
authentic. Why is the name Enoch assigned to it if there
is not authentic authorship? To have you think he is the
author, which he is not. Yet today many accept the false
information contained in it. There some parts of Enoch
that correspond with biblical truth in a few places and
there are just as many and more that do not correspond
with the Scripture. So one needs to dissect what is
correct from what is false. Once we do a biblical
comparison we can see why his book was not accepted as
canonical.
6/24/25 - Let
Us Follow the Good Shepherd Instead of Following Men
by Roger Oakland, 6/24/25
History has revealed many common patterns over time.
Often men and women are easily influenced. This is why
the Bible equates humans with sheep and preachers with
shepherds. For some unknown reason, humans are easily
misled. Men and women who desire power often gather
weak sheep into their folds and take advantage of
them. While the Bible makes it clear that strong
leaders must be biblical, Satan knows the weakness of
humans and provides apostate deceivers. Often,
pastors, teachers, and evangelists are clever
manipulators and use the Scriptures to trick the sheep
into thinking they are sound when they are actually
dangerous.

War on Masculinity: How are Men to Lead in a World
that Resists Male Leadership? by Gary Gilley,
6/30/25
To say that males are having a hard time functioning
or even figuring out their station in modern society
is an understatement. Men no longer know how to lead
or even if they should lead. They are accused
regularly of being toxic and “the problem.” As a
result, many men have abandoned their biblical roles
and become passive, or they have swung in the other
direction and have turned to self-absorption and/or
over-aggressiveness and even abuse. How did we get
here? What patterns and instructions for men are found
in Scripture? How can biblical masculinity be
regained, and what would it look like in the
contemporary setting? These are the issues this paper

You Left Your First Love? by Mike Ratliff,
7/5/25
1 Now the word of Yahweh came to me saying, 2 “Go and
call out in the ears of Jerusalem, saying, ‘Thus says
Yahweh, “I remember concerning you the lovingkindness
of your youth, The love of your betrothals, Your
walking after Me in the wilderness, Through a land not
sown. 3 Israel was holy to Yahweh, The first of His
produce. All who ate of it became guilty; Evil came
upon them,” declares Yahweh.’” Jeremiah 2:1-3
(LSB) Christian, think back to those early days
of your walk with the Lord. Your entire value system
seemed to be turned upside-down. You loved God and
your devotion to your Savior was the most important
thing in your life. Old sins had no power over you…
7/9/25 -The
Narrow Path and Walking by Faith by Mike
Ratliff, 7/9/25
4 For indeed while we are in this tent, we groan, being
burdened, because we do not want to be unclothed but to
be clothed, so that what is mortal will be swallowed up
by life. 5 Now He who prepared us for this very purpose
is God, who gave to us the Spirit as a pledge.6
Therefore, being always of good courage, and knowing
that while we are at home in the body we are absent from
the Lord– 7 for we walk by faith, not by sight– 8 we are
of good courage and prefer rather to be absent from the
body and to be at home with the Lord. 9 Therefore we
also have as our ambition, whether at home or absent, to
be pleasing to Him. 10 For we must all appear before the
judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may be
recompensed for his deeds in the body, according to what
he has done, whether good or bad. 2 Corinthians 5:4-10
(LSB) If you have read very much of what God has had me
post here then you know how much I admire John Bunyan
and his fantastic allegory The Pilgrim’s Progress.
Bunyan understood what real Christianity was all about.
He was surrounded by the empty religiosity of the state
church of his time and its leaders tried to silence him
through intimidation and imprisonment for refusing to
stop preaching the Gospel.

3/9/25 - Bradford
Pear Christianity by Sandy Simpson,
2/28/17
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

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 has attempted 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 their views of evolution and genetics and tends to prove the accounts in the Bible to be true.
A Pilgrim’s Egress by Sandy Simpson, 3/20/25 - Though, as born-again believers, we are set on a path of progression to holiness and maturity to which we must hold (1 Thes. 2:15, 5:21, 2 Tim. 1:15), we are also called to come away from the world, the flesh, the devil, false teachers and false prophets. Unfortunately, many modern churches avoid mature discernment topics dealing with distancing ourselves from false teaching and heresies. In their bid to accentuate the positive they neglect the consequences of not separating ourselves from sin in its many forms.

- 6/1/25 - Breath
Prayers” – Are They a Method by Which We Can
Become Best Friends With God? by Larry
DeBruyn, 6/1/25
To direct people on a spiritual journey for 40 days, Rick Warren wrote The Purpose Driven Life. The bestselling book has impacted millions of persons. Some of Pastor Warren’s purpose involves recommendations for “Becoming Best Friends with God.” To become God’s friends, the author shares six secrets, one of which is practicing God’s presence by being in “constant conversation” with him. After quoting 1 Thessalonians 5:17 (“pray without ceasing“), Warren asks how a Christian can practice unceasing prayer to which he answers: "One way is to use “breath prayers” throughout the day, as many Christians have done for centuries. You choose a brief sentence or a simple phrase that can be repeated in one breath. Then after providing ten examples of short biblical phrases that could work as breath prayers, Warren advises “Pray it as often as possible so it is rooted deep in your heart.”[1] In this context, Warren also cites the book of Brother Lawrence (c.1605-1691), The Practice of the Presence of God, who advocated experiencing God’s presence in the most menial of circumstances by praying short conversational prayers throughout the day. The Roman Catholic practice of praying the rosary is akin to breath prayers. -
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.

ACT Contributing Authors
Check It Out!
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)!
