Charismatic Witchcraft in the Churches

 

(Charismatic Witchcraft in the Churches)

An unholy spirit has replaced God's Holy Spirit in many Charismatic churches. Because of unsound doctrine, loose living, leadership living in sin, irreverent worship music and dancing, God has withdrawn His Spirit and Satan has moved in. The spirit of witchcraft is the antitheses of the Holy Spirit. Witchcraft is a counterfeit demonic spirit that produces false visions, dreams, as well as magic (false miracles and illusions). Witchcraft is a spirit of rebellion and control.

 The true gifts of the Holy Spirit are present in churches that preach, teach, as well as live in HOLINESS. An unfaithful bride is living in spiritual adultery, and this is rebellion. 

A number of years ago, the Lord spoke to me in an audible voice, he said, “Ichabod!  It bears worth repeating, Ichabod!” I asked the Lord what he meant, and he replied, “The churches are dead.” I said, “Surely you have a few that are not dead?” and he replied, “I have a few.” The word Ichabod means, the glory has departed (1 Samuel 4:21,22). God’s Word teaches that before the coming of the Lord there will be a great falling away (apostasy). 2 Thessalonians 2:3 Let no one deceive you by any means; for [that Day will not come] unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition.

A number of years ago, the Lord showed me that many churches are an unfaithful bride, and he said, “Divorce.” The Lord made it very clear that spiritual unfaithfulness to Christ without true repentance, will lead to spiritual death (divorce). The Lord spoke to me in an audible voice and said, “I am warning my children to get out!” This word was followed by a dream. I dreamed that I was in a convenience store and that nothing worked right, the gas pumps, food machines, as well as everything else within the store was malfunctioning. I then noticed that the lid was off the drink machine, and it was almost empty; there were also three, half-eaten bags of Fritos in the drink. I said, “This is nasty,” I then removed the drink machine and put it in the trash outdoors. Then an older man walked into the store, and he said that nothing worked right. The angel of the Lord then answered him and said, “The authorities are on their way.” I then saw hundreds of Law enforcement vehicles with lights flashing descending from Heaven in the sky above. 

  The convenience store in my dream was symbolic of the churches who are serving up spiritual junk food. The almost empty drink machine, with three half-eaten bags of Fritos in it, is the greasy grace doctrine (Grace without true repentance) taught by most churches. The gas pumps that do not work are symbolic of an unholy spirit, which has replaced God’s Holy Spirit. It is essential that we be filled with the Holy Spirit to have the power to live a faithful life to Christ. Working gas pumps are symbolic of churches that teach people the necessity of being filled with God's true Holy Spirit, as well as sound doctrine.

There are many counterfeit revivals producing demonic manifestations occurring worldwide. The Toronto blessing, Pensacola outpouring, Lakeland revival, Kansas City IHOP, Bethel Church in Redding Ca, Hillsong church etc. are but a few examples. False ministries to avoid, Rodney Howard Brown, Benny Hinn, Kenneth Copeland, Trinity Broadcasting Network, Creflo Dollar, Jesse Duplantis, Joyce Meyers, Paula White, as well as all other prosperity gospel preachers, and those that teach the unconditional eternal security doctrine. The New Apostolic Reformation preachers are also heretical, as well as of a false spirit.

Within these counterfeit revivals God’s Holy Spirit has been replaced by demonic manifestations. People are laughing uncontrollably, as well as making all different animal sounds. They are hissing like snakes, mooing like cows, roaring like lions, howling like wolves, as well as barking like dogs. These same manifestations occur within Kundalini Hinduism, as well as other forms of occultism. In a congregation in Boston, the pastor crawled on his hands and knees like a dog, barking, and his wife led him around on a leash fastened to a dog collar around his neck. The wife then said, “Where he leads, I will follow!”

People also claim to be drunk in the spirit; they display symptoms of physical drunkenness. After leaving one of these revivals in Florida, numerous people were pulled over by law enforcement officers for drunk driving. They all passed their breathalyzer tests, because they were made drunk by an unholy spirit. God’s Word is clear that God hates drunkenness, and no drunkard will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Satan is the lawless one, and he is making a mockery of God, within these revivals. After leaving this flesh fest, people were also seen displaying drunk behavior in local restaurants. They were falling on the floor in the restaurants, laughing hysterically. God is a God of order, and not foolishness. God will not make a person drive drunk or embarrass them in public. Where is the discernment? Why can’t Christians see that an unholy demonic spirit, is at work in their churches?

In some, so-called Christian rock concerts, many of the young people are going into trances, where they display tribal dancing. These are but a few of the demonic manifestations going on worldwide. The late pastor David Wilkerson warned the church about this invasion of demonic activity, as well as the need to return to holiness preaching, but most will not listen. It is time for the church to start using discernment and realize that something has gone wrong. God is withdrawing his Spirit from many churches, because they will not endure sound doctrine. If the churches will return to teaching and living in holiness once again, then maybe God’s Spirit will return!

Many of the leaders of these false revivals have been caught in adultery, as well as homosexual relations. I believe that in many cases physical perversion is a manifestation of spiritual perversion. The false prophet Todd Bently from Florida who led the well-known Lakeland revival, has a tattoo of a Japanese goddess on his arm. He claims that this goddess is really an angel by the name of Emma who accompanies him during his kicking sessions at his so-called revival. He claims that Emma has instructed him to hit or kick people in need of healing, as an act of obedience. The revival was shut down when it was revealed that he was having an affair during the entire time of this revival. This wolf in sheep’s clothing, divorced his wife and married his mistress. Now he is back at it again. A false prophet from Kansas City, claims that this same angel Emma came floating into his church to usher in their false revival. His church later removed him from his ministry position due to sexual misconduct with church members. Another false prophet from his church admitted to being a practicing homosexual. I could go on and on with examples of how perverted these revivalists are, but this should suffice.

Many of the television evangelists, as well as mega-church leaders, have also had their share of scandals. Benny Hinn has much darkness surrounding him. Channel six news from Orlando featured an expose on this minister. They showed on film a group of men sitting at a table together, and the evangelist handed a bong to his lead singer, as well as another man at the table. Both of these men smoked the bong. One of the men who smoked the bong, died later from a heroin overdose. While this married evangelist was in Rome, he was filmed walking and holding hands with television evangelist Paula White, who was wearing very short shorts. They both admitted to a friendship when the pictures were released but denied their obvious affair. In spite of this wickedness, their supporters chose to forgive them. If Christians would wake up and stop supporting these apostate ministers, they would shut them down overnight. God’s anointing is not on these reprobates, who use God for dishonest gain. Hell will be full of those who fleece the flock.

The Lord gave me a vision of over a dozen faces of television evangelists and mega-church pastors. Their images were spread out across my sight in this high-definition vision. The Lord spoke to me, "The apostasy runs deep, warn those in front of you and behind you!" For over thirty years I have been warning people about the apostasy, as well as the counterfeit revivals with demonic manifestations.

 Babylon is a term which means," wickedness". Mystery Babylon is the mother of all Harlots who rides on the back of the Beast. This is a reference to the Roman Catholic Church and her offspring. Her offspring are churches which will not endure sound doctrine, as well as Christians who are not faithful to Christ. Christians who live a compromised lifestyle are committing spiritual adultery. Salvation is a free gift of Grace which can never be earned through our works. God gives us grace to grow in him. However, we need to be filled with his Holy Spirit in order to live a Holy (set apart) life. There are many saved by Grace within the churches of Babylon, but Rev 18 tells us to come out of her!

 Rev 18:4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. 5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.

 A lukewarm church will be vomited out of God's mouth (Rev 3). We must press forward and grow in our faith. Study God's Word, scripture is protein! 

Many Christians are afraid of supernatural experiences because of the demonic manifestations. However, we need to allow God’s true gifts to be in operation within the church. It is not good to quench God’s Spirit, or to be afraid of it. For God does give visions, dreams, work miracles, heal the sick etc. (1 Cor 12). It is crucial that we pray over experiences, as well as use sound judgment. The reason for this unholy spirit which has invaded the church is loose living, as well as unsound doctrine.

(1 John 2: 3-6) And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him. He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.

John 8:11-12 KJV - She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more. Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

Luke 13:27 KJV - But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.

John 8:34-35 KJV - Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever.

Romans 6:16 NKJV - Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one’s slaves whom you obey, whether of sin leading to death, or of obedience leading to righteousness?

2 Timothy 2:19 NKJV - Nevertheless the solid foundation of God stands, having this seal: “The Lord knows those who are His,” and, “Let everyone who names the name of Christ depart from iniquity.”

1 John 3:6 NKJV - Whoever abides in Him does not sin. Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him.

1 John 3:9 NKJV - Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.

The Beatitudes

 

Matthew 5:1 And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:

2 And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,

3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.

7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.

8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.

9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.

10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.

16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

20 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.

21 Ye have heard that it was said of them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment:

22 But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.

23 Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee;

24 Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.

25 Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him; lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison.

26 Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.

27 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:

28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.

29 And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.

30 And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.

31 It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement:

32 But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.

33 Again, ye have heard that it hath been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths:

34 But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God's throne:

35 Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King.

36 Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black.

37 But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.

38 Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:

39 But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.

40 And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also.

41 And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.

42 Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.

43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.

44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.

46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?

47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?

48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

Earthquakes Today

 

Please be in prayer for those affected by the earthquakes today. Earthquakes are on the increase. The signs of the times are everywhere.

Demonic Christian Music and Worship

 

I have listened to contemporary Christian music the majority of my life. I was introduced to it by my church when I was a teenager in the early 1980's. I loved the religious rock style music as a young man. I was plagued by nightmares, as well as heard the voices of demons. The Lord showed my mother the demons in my bedroom. I threw the music away and was delivered from the tormenting spirits.

However, for many years I continued to listen to what I considered to be a softer, and more safe form of contemporary Christian music. The majority of contemporary Christian music is NOT anointed by the Lord. However, there are a few groups that are anointed. I now stay completely away from this type of music which reflects the world and NOT Christ.

The Lord gave me an audible vision of worship leaders, and groups, that were not pleasing to him. I saw a man in a popular band, beating on drums, and bobbing his head up and down to the fast beat music. The angel of the Lord told me that God is a holy God, and he does not accept this type of irreverent music. I also saw a worship leader playing a piano and singing from his heart to the Lord. The Lord was very pleased with his true worship. Many churches, as well as concerts, are offering up strange fire before a holy God. This music is worldly, irreverent, demonic, sensual, and deceptive.

Many bands, worship teams, as well as pastors, think they need to dress and look like the world to win people to Christ. They wear ripped jeans, tee shirts, man buns, long hair, ear and nose rings, gauge earrings, eye liner, biker jackets, and even shorts, on stage, and behind the pulpit. They reflect the rock music culture, as well as the darkness of sin. They are lewd, sensual, spiritually compromised, and dead. People dress nice for jobs, job interviews, weddings, and funerals, to show respect. Why not dress nicely to come before the Lord and show him respect? Where is the fear, and awe, for the God of all creation?

David Wilkerson was an amazing holiness preacher. He had a great gift of prophecy and discernment.  In 1987, David was invited to attend a Mylon LeFevre concert.  While at this concert, the band began playing a very popular song.  In the spirit, David saw Satan laughing at the crowd because they were doing this all in the name of Jesus, but they were truly worshiping Satan in their hearts. According to a well-known minister, David told him the rest of the story. David said that demons began to rise from behind the band and attached themselves to the backs of all of the people dancing to the music. David then shouted, "ichabod"!! Ichabod is translated, "the glory has departed". (Please read his profound article: http://tscpulpitseries.org/english/1980s/ts870803.html )

My wife Julie had a vision of a demon on stage at a community "Christian" concert we attended.  The demon replaced the drummer for a brief moment, it had a wide, sadistic grin on its face as if it was fully enjoying the fact that the audience was enjoying the very secular music that had nothing to even do with Christ. The worship leader had everyone sing, "Let's do the twist, and twist their hips.  We quickly left. Satan is making a mockery of God, his people, and God's house. There is zero discernment left.

Regardless of the lyrics, the beat and style of religious rock music is worldly, tribal, occultic, pagan, and demonic. God does not accept, or condone, any form of spiritual compromise.

I once had a dream where I was visiting a fancy mega-church.  I sat in the bleachers with some younger people, and the elders of past generations were seated to their right.  The worship leader began encouraging everyone to worship God by clapping and lifting their hands to the Lord.  Then he began telling them to dance before the Lord.  Don't be fooled that there is anything holy about the Holy Ghost Hop, for this is what they were doing in the dream.  Then he encouraged the congregation to take their clothes off before the Lord. He then removed his shirt and threw it.  This is symbolic of the shame of sin. The elders from previous generations began to point and chant, "Shame on you!  Shame on you!"

My wife and I are very careful about the type of music we listen to.  We pay close attention to any discernments the Holy Spirit may give us.  If either one of us feels uncomfortable, the music gets turned off.  We encourage you to also listen closely to the Holy Spirit when he warns you about what you allow into your home, car, or office.

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.   And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.  Romans 12:1-2 

Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! Isaiah 5:20 

For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.  Ephesians 6:12

In like manner also, that the women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with propriety and moderation... which is proper for women professing godliness, with good works.  I Timothy 2:9-10 

How can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. Matthew 12:34

C.S. Lewis and the Occult (Written by my Wife)

 A Study on C.S. Lewis

I am once again interrupting my writings through the Bible as I felt led to write this article. I know this is a long writing, but if you care about the history of one of the most popular Christian authors, please read it all even if you take a break in between.

I cannot tell you have often I hear or read Christian writers, singers, and other spiritual leaders quote the late author C.S. Lewis.  It is the continual quoting of Lewis that has inspired this writing. I have my own personal history with his fiction books that I first heard in 1979, so I decided to do some research on this very popular author.

Let me go back to my history for a moment before I share Lewis' story. When I was 7 years old, my father was a pastor, and we traveled (by car) from Michigan to Washington state. Either before we left or somewhere on the road, my parents purchased the Chronicles of Narnia series written by C.S. Lewis. My Mom read aloud to make the long car trip more entertaining. Our entire family fell in love with this series.  We thought it was good that the witch was the "bad guy," and evil was defeated.  Once we read the rest of the series, we learned that witchcraft was a very prevalent theme in these books. I am not writing a seven-book series book report and I am going to make this brief, but to state a few facts: it was witchcraft that got the first children to Narnia which later led to the enchanted wardrobe, there are books of magic that include speaking spells aloud, as well as curses, violence, and many characters ("good" and "evil") that represent demonic spirits/mythological creatures.     

I re-read the series on my own at least 2 more times between the ages of 17-37 (I am now 53). It was not until I got married in 2012 (I was almost 40 before I got married), that the Holy Spirit began convicting me of my love for novels and movies that were seeped in witchcraft.

I have been criticized for speaking against C.S. Lewis' well-loved novels, but, as I just stated, make no mistake, the entire series promotes witchcraft: I will repeat it, magic rings, magic wardrobes, books of spells, and a large variety of demonic/mythological creatures. Therefore, please do not be fooled into thinking there is anything innocent about even so-called "Christian" fairytales.  

By the way, did you know that even the term "fairytale" indicates the story revolves around demonic influences? In most cultures, fairies are often associated with demons and fallen angels and were said to also be cast out of heaven. They are often associated with mischievous spirits and cruelty and other traits of demons. Even the non-cruel ones are considered spirits, which is basically a "nice demon."

With that said, how could I possibly support anyone like CS Lewis just because he also wrote "Christian" devotionals. If you read the link listed below from John Gideon Hartnett's article, you will just how heretical Lewis' non-fiction books actually were. I was once told not to "throw the baby out with the bath water" because I refused to read any of Lewis' non-fiction writings.  But I will not support anyone who promotes the witchcraft God so hates.  Don't be deceived into thinking God is okay with such a compromise either.  It is no different than endorsing someone who writes "Christian" books but who also writes pornography or also claimed he was a Buddhist. No difference.   

(1 Corinthians 10:21) Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils.

We all know that people who practice witchcraft will not inherit the kingdom of heaven.

(Revelation 21:6-8) He said to me: “It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give water without cost from the spring of the water of life. Those who are victorious will inherit all this, and I will be their God and they will be my children. But... those who practice magic arts... —they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.”

I have mentioned before how God set me free from the sin of occultic entertainment. You can read more about that here: https://thankful-julie.blogspot.com/2025/10/the-slow-backslide.html  and  https://thankful-julie.blogspot.com/2025/10/follow-light-of-jesus-part-1.html

The Bible makes it very clear that we are not to call the dark things of this world Light:

(Isaiah 5:20 ) Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

When we watch movies or read books like Harry Potter, Star Wars, Frozen, The Lion the Witch & the Wardrobe, or even Cinderella and other fairytales, we open up our hearts and minds for all sorts of evil to walk through our door.

Note: As I was about to finish this article, I came across a writing that verified all I have said as well as learned a lot more information. Even if you ignore my writing, please, read his, here is the link to John Gideon Hartnett's article: https://biblescienceforum.com/2016/06/09/lupus-occultus-the-paganised-christianity-of-c-s-lewis/  I have included a few of that writer's quotes at the end of this blog as well, but I still encourage you to read his full writing so you can see I am not making this stuff up. 

If you consider yourself a true Christian, please quit endorsing, quoting, and supporting people like CS Lewis! 

Here is a brief biography of CS Lewis, and I will let you decide if you still think he was so innocent after all. P.S. You will see he was obsessed with different types of mythology, which is never innocent because they promote many false gods (There is only ONE true God) and introduce numerous demonic spirits, many of which that you will recognize in most of Lewis' works.  (I am leaving out his immoral history with women, but this is another reason not to promote him.  Even after he was supposedly "converted" he still had inappropriate relationships with women. None of these relationships were 100% proven but were likely based on what other people witnessed.) This is edited by me but not written by me. As you read, remember the above scriptures listed. 

C.S. Lewis was sent back to England to Malvern, Worcestershire where he attended the prep school. It was during this time that he abandoned the Christianity he was taught as a child and became an atheist. During this time he also developed a fascination with European mythology and the occult. 

One of Lewis' college friends, Donald Hardman, had mixed feelings about him. Hardman later recalled: "He was a bit of a rebel... When I knew him I can only describe him as a riotously amusing atheist. He really was pretty foul mouthed about it."

As a teenager Lewis was wonderstruck by the songs and legends of what he called Northernness, the ancient literature of Scandinavia. His teenage writings began experimenting with different art forms such as epic poetry to try to capture his new-found interest in Norse mythology. He also had a love of Greek mythology.

From boyhood, Lewis had immersed himself in Norse, Greek, and Irish mythology. 

In 1921 Lewis met [poet] Yeats twice. Lewis was surprised to find his English peers indifferent to Yeats and the Celtic Revival movement [which endorsed Satanic druidism) and wrote: "I thank the gods that I am Irish."

He became an atheist at age 15, though he later described his young self as being paradoxically "very angry with God for not existing" and "equally angry with him for creating a world". His early separation from Christianity began when he started to view his religion as a chore and a duty; around this time, he also gained an interest in the occult, as his studies expanded to include such topics. Lewis often quoted Lucretius, "Had God designed the world, it would not be A world so frail and faulty as we see."

He eventually returned to Christianity, having been influenced by arguments with his Oxford colleague and friend JRR Tolkien [who also wrote books heavily seeped in the witchcraft and mythology and who was also very Catholic]. Lewis vigorously resisted conversion, noting that he was brought into Christianity "kicking, struggling, resentful, and darting his eyes in every direction for a chance to escape... I gave in, and admitted that God was God, and knelt and prayed: perhaps, that night, the most dejected and reluctant convert in all England."

[But if he was truly "converted," why did he not give up witchcraft and mythology? Perhaps because, as he admitted, he did not really to really convert.]

Much of his scholarly work concentrated on the Middle Ages, especially its use of allegory. His works helped reinvigorate the serious study of late medieval narratives such as The Romance of the Rose which was both popular and controversial for its emphasis on sensual language and imagery, along with its promulgation of misogyny.

About his science fiction Space Trilogy (also called the Cosmic Trilogy or Ransom Trilogy): dealt with what Lewis saw as the dehumanizing trends in contemporary science fiction. The first book, was apparently written following a conversation with his Catholic friend Tolkien [who heavily promoted witchcraft]. Lewis agreed to write a "space travel" story and Tolkien a "time travel" one, but Tolkien never completed his. Lewis's main character is based in part on Tolkien, a fact to which Tolkien alludes in his letters.

The second novel in the trilogy was very heretical and depicts a new Garden of Eden on the planet Venus, a new Adam and Eve, and a new "serpent figure" to tempt Eve. The story can be seen as an account of what might have happened if the terrestrial Adam had defeated the serpent and avoided the Fall of Man, with Ransom intervening in the novel to "ransom" the new Adam and Eve from the deceptions of the enemy. The third novel, develops the theme of nihilistic science threatening traditional human values, embodied in Arthurian legend.

The Chronicles of Narnia, considered a classic of children's literature, is a series of seven fantasy novels. Written between 1949 and 1954. The books contain "Christian" ideas, BUT IN ADDITION to "Christian" themes, Lewis also borrows characters from Greek and Roman mythology, as well as traditional British and Irish fairy tales.

Lewis's last novel, Till we Have Faces, a retelling of the blasphemous myth of Cupid and Psyche, was published in 1956.  Lewis called it "far and away my best book." He thought of it as his most mature and masterly work of fiction but which was never a popular success. It is a retelling of the myth from the unusual perspective of Psyche's sister. It is deeply concerned with religious ideas, but the setting is entirely PAGAN, and the connections with specific Christian beliefs are left implicit.

Lewis wrote several heretical works on heaven and hell. One of these is a short novella in which a few residents of Hell take a bus ride to Heaven, where they are met by people who dwell there. The proposition is that they can stay if they choose, but many find it not to their taste. 

Very strangely, in 2024 an original poem was discovered in a collection of documents in Special Collections. Its Old English title, "Mód Þrýþe Ne Wæg", is not easily translated into modern English and references the mythic epic poem Beowulf.  It was written under the pen name Nat Whilk, meaning "someone" in Old English.
 

Lewis also portrays Universal Morality in his works of fiction. In The Chronicles of Narnia he describes Universal Morality as the "deep magic" which everyone knew.

CS Lewis often met with other writers and formed a group called The Inklings. 20 men were listed as either frequent or infrequent members, but all were a part of "The Inklings" and most (not all) of them wrote about the occult, new age practices/theologies, false/heretical religious beliefs, and/or false gods. I won't go into them all as it would take far too long, but you can look it up yourself as I did. Here is the list of all their names: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inklings You can link to them and read about them form that page.

Now here is part of John Gideon Hartnett's article (see link above for full article, this is only a small sample, it is a very long article, but worth the read):

What most Christians don’t seem to realize is that this ‘Christ’ – the C S Lewis version of Christ – is not the Messiah Redeemer, but an archetypal figure revered by pagans since ancient times, the perfected man or god-man, the pinnacle of human evolution.

In light of the evidence that I present in this paper, I submit that Lewis chose Christ, rather than Apollo, say, as his god-man archetype because he wished to draw a great many others into his system of belief. While the small circle of committed pagans whom he knew and with whom he met regularly – known as the Inklings – were already in step with his philosophy, there was enormous potential for spreading his ideas by linking them directly to just one ‘mythology,’ that of Judeo-Christianity.

This is why I was surprised to learn that millions of Bible-believing Christians in the US were looking to Lewis for guidance and edification. Most members of the New Age, especially those who have read widely and met with representatives of its various branches, know that C S Lewis is simply a vehicle for drawing new converts into paganism and the New Age movement. He does this by the time-honoured method – pretend to be a friend, use the right terminology, and slowly draw your audience in another direction.

I will shortly show how he did this, in his own words. But first I’d like to quote two high-profile, former practitioners of witchcraft – John Todd and David Meyer.

Testimony from Two Former Witches

[From John Todd] “How many of you read [books by] C S Lewis? How many of you read [books by] JRR Tolkien? Burn them. I’m going to repeat this – Burn them, burn them! Lewis was supposed to have been once allured [charmed into witchcraft] by Tolkien. Tolkien was supposed to be a Christian. And witches call all those books [i.e. the books of Tolkien and Lewis] their bible. They have to read them before they can be initiated, and it is well known in England and published in occult books that they both belonged to Rothschild’s private coven…They are not Christian books. We have found books that are outside of the Screwtape Letters where Lewis talks of the gods Diana, Kurnous and others as beings, as real gods. C. S. Lewis, who was supposed to be a Christian and his books are sold in Christian stores. Burn ‘em. They’re witchcraft books.”

[From David Meyer] “As a former witch, astrologer, and occultist who has been saved by the grace of God, I know that the works of C.S. Lewis are required reading by neophyte witches, especially in the United States and England. This includes The Chronicles of Narnia, because [they] teach neophyte[s], or new witches, the basic mindset of the craft… The story of the Narnian Chronicle known as The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe is one of clandestine occult mysticism and is not Sunday School material unless your Sunday School is a de facto witch coven…The main character of the book is a lion named Aslan, which is [derived from Arslan] the Turkish word for lion. Aslan the lion is the character that “Christian” teachers say is the Christ figure, but witches know him to be Lucifer. The lion, Aslan, appears in all seven of the books of The Chronicles of Narnia.”

Of course, one could ignore these warnings, possibly by doubting the occult bona fides of their authors. After all, how could someone as “nice” as C S Lewis be involved in anything of this nature. But believe me, some of the “nicest” people you could ever meet are practitioners of the occult. According to their philosophy, they are morally entitled to spread their beliefs in a disguised form, for the greater good of mankind.

The Narnia Chronicles are plain celebrations of white magic and its power to defeat black magic. They are occult throughout. And the number of magical ideas and pagan deities which they portray is quite extraordinary. These are dressed up and presented in such a jolly British fashion, and carefully geared towards the mind of a child, that our critical faculty fails to register the obvious – that the power of white magic and the power of Christ are NOT the same thing. Readers fall into an appalling trap when they confuse the two. However, it is precisely this confusion that Lewis is exploiting.

[About Lewis' Book Mere Christianity] There are a number of things about the book, Mere Christianity, which should immediately strike any Christian as exceedingly odd. To begin with, Lewis virtually ignores the Word of God throughout. One looks in vain for a scriptural verse to support even one of his countless philosophical observations... the reader has been lured into accepting, or at least being open to, a host of compromising assumptions: that Christ was mainly a supremely wise and kindly man; that the main goal of Christianity is moral perfectibility and that hell is the failure to achieve this; that Christian ordinances have sacramental power; that Christ is substantially present in the communion bread; that Christ was primarily a step in the evolution of mankind. And these are just a sample.

All of these propositions are in conflict with Christianity, but they are perfectly compatible with New Age philosophy. Alas, many Christians today are unable to tell the difference.

War with Iran will Resume

 

The memo of understanding has been signed between Iran and the US; this will start 60 days of negotiations. The real deal will never be reached. War will resume and US forces are going into Iran to seize the dust. Israel has announced that they are not pulling out of Lebanon. Both the US and Iran are already threatening one another with bombings.

Article from Headlines360:

 The United States was in an advanced stage of planning a high-risk ground mission inside Iran to seize the regime's enriched uranium stockpile before President Donald Trump paused the operation, according to a new CNN report. The specialized mission, which military planners categorized as carrying a "High to Extreme" risk level, was designed to secure near-weapons-grade uranium stored deep within fortified underground facilities like Natanz and Fordow.

In Honor of Juneteenth

 

In honor of June 19th please watch this powerfully beautiful rendition by Wintley Phipps. June 19th is also known as Juneteenth: Juneteenth is a federal holiday commemorating the emancipation of enslaved African Americans. It marks June 19, 1865, when Union troops arrived in Galveston, Texas, to announce the end of slavery—more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation.

Christian Marriage Principles

 

(Christian Marriage Principles)

Satan’s desire is to destroy the Christian family in order to ruin our testimony, as well as render us useless for God’s work. That is why it is important for our marriages to be grounded in Christ, for if Christ is the foundation, then when the storms of life come, our marriages will remain strong and unshakable. It is also important to remain clothed with the armor of Christ to be able to stand against the evil one in these dark times. Our society is trying to redefine marriage by legalizing gay marriage, but God is the author of the marriage covenant, and he has determined that it is between a man and a woman. It is sad that in our public schools today, gay marriage is being endorsed, as well as encouraged, I believe that this is a sure sign of the end of the age.

Choosing the spouse that we will spend our life with is the most important decision that we will ever make, only our relationship with the Lord is of more importance. That is why we should seek the Lord with fasting and prayer concerning whom we choose. It is also very important to thoroughly get to know the person before making that lifetime commitment. I have known young people who were in such a hurry to get married that they hardly knew their spouse and then suffered the consequences. It is a good idea for most people to get pre-marriage counseling from their Pastor or another Christian counselor before walking down that aisle. Spiritual, as well as emotional maturity is very important to a stable marriage. Women want a man to be confident, strong, as well as be a spiritual and physical leader, and men want a woman to be nurturing, loving, supportive, and Christ centered.

A Christian should be loyal to their spouse in every way and should never flirt with the opposite sex. I have witnessed many married people flirt with others in the workplace and it is very disturbing. Many of these people were professing Christians and one was even a pastor in his fifties. We live in a very promiscuous society where people are bound by lust, and believe that there is grace for everything. Many believe that it is okay for a married person to have friends of the opposite sex but this is seldom innocent. I have witnessed these friendships between professing Christians of the opposite sex and it always led to an emotional bonding, and the men always developed feelings for the woman. Your spouse is the person that you should be emotionally bonded to, not Joe or Sally in the workplace. Fraternization is the first step toward adultery.

Our so-called progressive society has blurred the roles of men and women. A man is called by God to be the leader of the family, and his wife is called to be submissive to him, but our society calls these old-fashioned values archaic. I don’t believe that a husband should be abusive, or a dictator to his wife, but should love her as his own body and be willing to give his life for her, Ephesians 5:22-25.  A spouse should put the needs of their mate before their own, as well as be tender hearted towards them. If biblical principles are applied to a marriage there will be harmony. Wives should honor their husbands and allow them to be the leader of the household and never be condescending or controlling. And children should respect their parents and not try to rule over them. A big reason for the dysfunctionality of the family today is due to what people view on television, as well as the internet. The liberal culture is shaping the lives of our children, and many men are addicted to pornography because of this technology.

Another big problem today is that families don’t spend quality time together. Our lives are busy and quite often both parents work and our children are being raised by babysitters, as well as television. Most jobs today require a person to be married to them instead of their spouse. If possible, a mother should stay home and raise her own children and the father should take a job where he has the time to spend with his family. Most kids today seldom see their fathers and this is not God’s plan for the family. Work is honorable but a paycheck cannot replace a parent. Sometimes it is better to live in a smaller house and drive a cheaper car in order to have more time with your family. Below is a list of scriptures on marriage.

 1 Cor 7: 1 Now concerning the things of which you wrote to me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman. 2 Nevertheless, because of sexual immorality, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband. 3 Let the husband render to his wife the affection due her, and likewise also the wife to her husband. 4 The wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. And likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does. 5 Do not deprive one another except with consent for a time, that you may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again so that Satan does not tempt you because of your lack of self-control. 6 But I say this as a concession, not as a commandment. 7 For I wish that all men were even as I myself. But each one has his own gift from God, one in this manner and another in that.

1 Cor 7: 10 Now to the married I command, yet not I but the Lord: A wife is not to depart from her husband. 11 But even if she does depart, let her remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband. And a husband is not to divorce his wife.12 But to the rest I, not the Lord, say: If any brother has a wife who does not believe, and she is willing to live with him, let him not divorce her. 13 And a woman who has a husband who does not believe, if he is willing to live with her, let her not divorce him. 14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband; otherwise your children would be unclean, but now they are holy. 15 But if the unbeliever departs, let him depart; a brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases. But God has called us to peace. 16 For how do you know, O wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, O husband, whether you will save your wife?

Ephesians 5:22  Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. 24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. 25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; 26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. 28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. 29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: 30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. 31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. 32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. 33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.

Another Dream of the Coming Judgments

 

Recently, the Lord gave me a dream. I dreamed that I was driving in the country, and I noticed a wild brush fire that was beginning. As I continued down the road, I noticed many homes, farms, mobile homes, sheds, and other outbuildings being consumed by wildfires. I noticed that people were inside some of the homes, either awake, or asleep, but oblivious to the fires approaching their homes. I felt the need to warn them to flee to safety.

Then I found myself standing next to a very large church. The church resembled a shopping mall. I could hear several prophetic utterances being given within the church. They were the usual generic nonsense that is commonly falsely given in the name of God. God is going to bless you, it is the year of jubilee, a great revival is coming, all false.

Then I saw a large mushroom cloud produced by a nuclear explosion go off, to be followed by many other mushroom clouds, as far as the eye can see. I then spoke into the church, although I was standing outside of the building. I cutoff the person giving the false prophecy and said, "Nuclear War is Coming, Wake Up", "You Need to Prepare Now"! I repeated this several times.

I also dreamed that I was standing behind a church that resembled a Walmart store. They were sending out meals in containers covered in dirt. This was symbolic of nasty, dirty, spiritual food. Most modern American churches will not endure sound doctrine and are dead in their sins. They preach grace without true repentance, as well as grace without holiness, bless me with riches and miracles. They offer up strange fire before God with their religious rock music and blaspheme God with their counterfeit revivals and demonic experiences.

I woke from the dream to a vision of President Putin of Russia bending over, looking at war plans, on a computer monitor. Nuclear World War Three is coming soon and the wise will prepare. The Lord will bring judgment upon the Empire of the Beast (United States), as well as the land of Magog (Russia), and the kings of the East (China/ North Korea alliance). One third of the earth shall be destroyed by wildfires, as well as nuclear fire. God is shaking the church and the world! Wake up and seek God!!
