John 8:32 "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."
However also note this:
Galatians 5:19-21 "Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, impurity, licentiousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, strife, jealousy, wrath, selfishness, divisions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of which I tell you beforehand, as I have also told you in time past, that they who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God."
Yet all can rejoice:
Galatians 5:22-23 "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, self-control: against such there is no law."
Ephesians 5:9-10 "(For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;) Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord."
In the previous "exposures", we learned {as did I} that those Loyola Spiritual Exercises, opened up a a willing on your part, a pathway for Satan's spirit, to enter in your mind. All the while these" guides", "Directors" "Counselors", the "13th ONE", are NOT telling is that this allows Satan spirit to control you, all the they are telling you its the Holy Spirit, directly sent from god The Father!
It has been via this method that 96% of Protestants are rushing to back to the Roman Church, and all their non-Biblical doctrines!
Romans 10:17 " So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God."
Note: When God's Word is read by anyone out loud, then we, not only hear but see, and speak His Word, giving us the greater retention
However the so-called Spiritual Exercises, Contemplative Prayers, no matter the name, they call it, all are trying to get YOU to focus on a word, a place, and meditate, which gives evil spirits access to YOU! The groups may be called Promise Keepers, Alpha Groups, Charismatics, just as they say "All Roads lead to Rome," well all these outfits will also lead to Rome, and the doctrines of me, rather than of God! Now do these experiences feel real?
Oh, yes indeed they do, so real that you can see, and feel it,once Satan has you hooked! Therein lies the danger.But all with Satan shall share his fate and end in the Lake of Fire...
Ezekiel 28:16 " By the multitude of your trade they have filled the midst of you with violence, and you have sinned: therefore I will cast you as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy you, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire."
Revelation 19:20 "And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone."
Note Brimstone is sulfur and it burns at 2300 F. so death shall be near instantaneous for all but Satan, upon whom Christ shall place the weight of all sins, this the final Judgement after the 1,000 years, during which, this earth sees no sun, no light and no life but for Satan and his angels, and all the dead unjust, and unburied.
YET ALL THIS STUFF IS IN "VOGUE" TODAY. DOES POPULAR MAKE ANYTHING CORRECT OR TRUTH?
Sadly , no! Nor does it mean it's from God. The Reformation's reformers all rejected the "Spiritual Exercises" as a way of "finding one's relationship with God, through Christ, Jesus, and Luther taught that the Just shall walk by Faith!
PUTTING THIS INTO PRACTICE:
Paul Yonggi Cho, who heads up the worlds largest church in South Korea, wrote a book called "The Fourth Dimension".
Dr. Robert Schuller---- In the forward to the book he wrote the following in regard to 'Visualization', "I discovered the reality of that dynamic dimension (4th) in prayer that comes through visualizing. Don't try to understand it, just start to enjoy it. It's true It works! I tried it!"
VISUALIZATION IS HYPNOSES;
Psychologist, Micheal Yapko, explains: "Many times therapists are't even aware that they're doing hypnosis. The're doing what they call guided imagery [which IS visualization] or guided meditation, which are all very mainstream hypnotic techniques."
Source: Martin and Deidre Bobgan quoting Micheal Harner in Hypnosis: Medical, Scientific, or Occult . ( Santa Barbara, CA. EastGate Publishers, 2001 p82.
Note: If one needs hypnosis to gain a loved one, or to try to use it to find God's Truth, how can you come to the truth via a counterfeit method?
[WWW.BODYSOULANDSPIRIT.NET] INNER EXPERIENCE EXPLORED.
MYSTICAL EXPERIENCE REGISTRY {THEIR LOGO? A 5 CIRCULAR SPIRAL]
CARL JUNG (1875-1961- MYSTICAL EXPERIENCES OF...
Swiss psychologist and major contributor to psychotherapy, Carl Jung cultivated the ability to have visions from deep imagination. Some would label these as explorations as mystical experiences while others would say they are more akin to the sort of creative thinking artists do. In addition to these experiences, Jung had several spontaneous visions when he was recovering from a heart attack when he was 69. All of his visions are described in detail in his book "Memories, Dreams and Reflections."
Note: See how all these methods, are used to gain control and access to a can we say a "Vacant Mind"? One that is totally focused upon a word, an image, or just humming OHM over and over?
Source: Vintage edition of "Memories, Dreams and Reflections, p. 181-182. no date given.
Jung uses a visual technique that he has found helps him go deeper into active Imagination. This technique is realistic visualization of descending a great distance. In this experience he figures that he has descended about 1,000 feet. There he discovers a "cosmic Abyss.". Next he sees something like a moon crater and then he has the feeling that he is in the land of the dead. Near the steep slope of a rock he catches the sight of two people, one old man and the other, a beautiful young girl. He summons up his courage and approaches the. He listens carefully to what they say. The old man turns out to be the biblical figure of Elijah and the girl, Salome, "What a strange couple." he muses. But Elijah tells Jung that he and Salome belong together for all eternity. Along with the two is a third, a large black snake. Jung sticks close to Elijah and keeps his distance from Salome..CONT....
Note: Elijah was "Translated", never saw death as he was taken up by God to heaven, but this Salome, was the New Testament equal of the Old Book's Jezebel, both very wickedly sinful. a Very interesting typology, one stood for good, the other for evil!
This then is the"Fusion" of good and evil, which is Pantheism. Jezebel and Queen and a high Priestess for Ballim, and Salome,step daughter of Herod the great, he danced to him as the price for the head of John the Baptist!
Cont: Overtime, Jung holds conversation with Elijah who eventually changes into another figure, Philemon. Philemon teaches Jung about the nature of human consciousness. Jung begins to see how autonomous figures can act. It is the inner figure that seems to hold this knowledge, not Jung. (p;183). Again, Jung's inner figure changes. This time it alters to take on the form of the Egyptian notion of spirit, Ka. (p184-185) Vintage edition IBID.
Note: "INNER FIGURE," does this not speak of possession by an evil Spirit!Note he says its' autonomous, which must mean "IT", has a mind and will of its own, right?

"Many techniques such as visualization had to be specially tailored and specialized to suit swimmers otherwise they simply didn't work, as swimmers have a unique outlook quite unlike most other athletes...

NEW AGE: ASCENDED MASTERS RESEARCH CENTER. Gems from the Ascended Master's teachings:
TRUE VISUALIZATION-
An excerpt from I AM Discourses by Godfre Ray King.; True visualization is God's Attribute and Power of Sight acting in the mind of man. When one consciously pictures in his mind a desire he wishes fulfilled, he is using one of the most powerful means of bringing it into his visible, tangible experience."
http://www.ascendedmasters..sc/gems.html
Exodus 3:14 "And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you."
Note: Are we to "Visualize self, to God?
Dave Hunt-- "Occult Invasion" writes: "Occultism has always involved three {3} techniques for changing and creating reality: Thinking, speaking, and visualizing."
Note: There's no doubt, that this technique, is used across a broad spectrum of human activities, and it's no longer just a their religion, but a master plan for conversion! But to who do Occultist give allegiance to? Certainly not to the Creator God! So whose left?
However, if Y O U think this is not in the "Main-Stream" of U.S. Churches here's what Robert Schuller says:
"You don't know what power you have within you!...You make the world into anything you choose. Yes, you can make the world into what ever you want it to be" [Possibility Thinking Goals, Amway Corporation cassette Tape.;}
"It is important to remember that meditation in any form is the harnessing, by human means, of God's divine laws... we are endowed with a a great many powers and forces that we do not yet fully understand.
"The most effective mantras employ the "M" sound. You can get the the feel of it by repeating the words, "I am, I am," many times over.... Transcendental Meditation or TM... is not a religion nor is it necessarily anti-Christian." [Peace of Mind through Possibility Thinking, pp.131-132]
Is this not POWER RELIGION? In which it man who claims to have all the power? Does this fit with....
John 5:19 "Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise."
SCULLER: PRAYER: MY Soul's Adventure with God, he says, [pp. 141,151.]
"Move into mighty moods of meditation. Draw energy from centers of sacred solitude,serenity, and silence...Find yourself coming alive in the garden of prayer called meditation {note(jb)run by Satan & Co!].. Yes, the "New Agers" have grabbed hold of meditation...Hey, Christian, Heart Me! Let's not give up the glorious God given gift of meditation by turning it over to those outside of our faith."
Luke 21:14-18 "Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer: For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist. And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death. And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake. But there shall not an hair of your head perish."
Note: ANY, yes any form of hypnosis is NEVER from God. He speaks to all through His Word, the Holy Bible and some selected beings by dreams and visions, and fewer still directly via an Angel! Any other method is from Satan! PLEASE THINK... if the Occultists are doing this, why in Heaven's Name should we want ti emulate them? Remember, they fully believe, that Satan-Lucifer is the Good Guy, and that Christ is the evil one!
Please remember if God the Father is for it, Satan's against it, and vice versa! The word SATAN in the Hebrew means apposer!
Why is this important?
God Himself gave us a free-will, a mind to choose anything for ourselves. God NEVER intended for anyone's mind be to be subjected to the will of another which is what Hypnosis is! Most of us need no help to at times act as a monkey, without being put into a hypnotic spell to act as one!
TRUE MEDITATION IS BIBLE BASED ONLY: Unless YOU want to play with the devil, and YOU lose!
Psalms 119:148-149 "Mine eyes prevent the night watches, that I might meditate in thy word. Hear my voice according unto thy lovingkindness: O LORD, quicken me according to thy judgment."
Psalms 63:6 "When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches."
Psalms 77:12-13 "I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings. Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God?"
Meditate: siyach {see'-akh] a primitive Root; to ponder, that is, (by implication) converse (with self), and hence aloud or transitively utter; commune, complain, declare, meditate, muse, pray, speak, talk (with).
Note: When the Bible says TALK---SPEAK.. to God, He is your Heavenly Father, Whom breathed life into you, and me. He is YOUR friend, and Champion Protector against evil forces!
You see, all this spirit and spiritual stuff being pushed these days, are directly from Satan, and the ONLY way he has the power to hurt Christ, is to deceive people and take them with him to the Lake of fire!
Ezekiel 28:17-18" Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee. Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffic; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee."
Note: Ezekiel 28 is known as Satan's Funeral dirge! He has already been judged and sentenced, but sentence has been forwarded until the the end of the 1,000, year Millennium Age
WHAT DID PASTOR SCHULER REALLY STAND FOR OR BELIEVE?
Pastor Steve Mitchell , Garden City Grace Brethren Church, Roanoke, VA. quotes Schuler as saying:
"The secret of winning unchurched people into the church is really quite simple. find out what they would be impressed them, and then give it to them."
a QUOTE TAKEN FROM GARY GILLEY'S "This Little church went to the Market".
Note: FIND OUT WHAT KIND OF ADDICTION THEY HAVE AND SUPPLY IT TO THEM?????
He took his cues from Norman Vincent Peale and began an approach to ministry that all but did away with expository preaching centered on god's Word, and decided to address what he felt were people's psychological and emotional needs.......cont.
NOTE: We need only to tune into Oprah Winfrey for this thus no need to go to church!
Cont......thus the
approach shifted focus from God, to man and ultimately gave birth to a lot of what we sees today in terms of pragmatic or "Do what ever it takes to get people in" ,strategy regardless of whether see see these methods in the Bible or not."
http://www.sermonaudio.com _ details3asp? ID-9077
Note: (jb) These preachers I'll call "ONE VERSE JOES", as they use one verse of god's, and then the rest of the"sermon?" is man's hot air! This we hear, six days each week so why put up with it in Church? And that on the SUN-DAY the day of the venerable sun god?
Matthew 24:11 "And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many."
SCHULLER TAUGHT THAT: The Church's problem is that it has had a God-Centered theology for centuries, when it needs a man-centered one"
Self-Esteem: The New Reformation, Word Books, 1982, p.115.
Note: (jb) Sorry, dear reader, but NO man can save self, this is the purview of Christ and Him only! So all this man -centered worship is straight from Satan!
However, where did this idea originated from?
Malichi Martin's "Keys of this Blood", p, 259 we find this...... {a Professor at Rome's catholic university.}
"At the conclusion of Vatican ii Pope Paul VI told the Bishops that: 'Their Church had decided to opt for man; to serve man, to help him build his home on this earth. Man with his ideas and his aims, man with his hopes and his fears, man in his difficulties and suffering-- that was the center piece of the church's interest, said the Pontiff to his bishops."
Note: Again I ask, which man can save himself for eternal life? So where did Schuller get this idea from? His mentor the Pope! Yet YOU still think he was a Protestant? [in Name only!] This is part of their 'NEW" theology to get the whole world into one big religious soup tank, and Rome's in charge, just as she used to be!
"SELF-ESTEEM: THE NEW REFORMATION."
"Self-esteem, or 'pride in being human being', is the single greatest need facing the human race today... I strongly suggest that self-love is the ultimate will of man... that what you really want more than anything else in the world is the awareness that you are a worthy person... Do not fear pride: the easiest job God has is to humble us. God's almost impossible task is to keep us believing every hour of every day how great we are as his sons and daughters on Earth.
Matthew 24:11 "And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many."
Note: This self-esteem is heifer dust!
Mark 7:22 " Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride,
foolishness."
1 Timothy 3:6 "Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil."
1 John 2:16 "For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world."
NOTE: Why did Lucifer become The Devil?
Ezekiel 28:17 "Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee."
A: Pride in self! Thus follow man's guidelines is to follow Satan, into the Lake of fire and be blotted out, from all memory, as if YOU had never existed! That is the Outer Darkness, as life can NOT exist without God!
MUST we change our Hymnal, from How Great Thou Art, to How great WE are?
2 Timothy 3:1-5 " This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, high minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away."
Note: The idea of "SELF-LOVE" is thoroughly condemned, within the Bible, THEREFORE, ALL who preach it ,MUST have chosen Satan or have been totally deceived by him! I pray they soon will come to the truth of God!
WHY?
Well, just as Our Father's love is poured out upon others, so should we all pour out our love upon others, remember giving is better than receiving, and this is its beginning, of man's saying.
2 Corinthians 3:18 "But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord."
"By beholding Christ, you will become changed, until you will hate your former pride, your former vanity and self- esteem, your self- righteousness and unbelief. You will cast these sins aside as a worthless burden, and walk humbly, meekly, trustfully, before God. You will practice patience, gentleness, goodness, mercy, and every grace that dwells in the Child of God, and will at last find a place among the sanctified and holy."
E.G. White 1888- 1226.2.
Can YOU, dear reader, begin to see why this lady, who called herself the 'lesser light', actually put a bright spot-light on God's Word? Please read 2Cor. 3:18 above again! This readily shows the vast gap, between God's Word and the words of men! But look at what God showed her.....
Review and Herald June 18 1889 par. 2.
"It is through this avenue of self-esteem and self-sufficiency that Satan will seek to ensnare the people of God."
It should be very plain, that one follows the Bible, thus God, while the other follows the dark Power! Whom will Y O U chose to follow?
SCHULLER AND ROME.
Yes Schuller has passed and his son took over his Pastoral duties, in Garden Grove's CA., 's "Crystal Cathedral". which latter declared bankruptcy and the this beautiful edifice to man, was bought by the Catholic diocese.. (jb)
Schuller has sympathized with Catholicism in the past. In 1972, Schuller "Invited Catholic Bishop Fulton J. Sheen to his pulpit and joined with Catholic Bishops at their Mass at the Annual Mary's Hour at the Los Angeles Sports Arena" { David Beale, S.B.C. House on the Sand, p 144}
Schuller said: "It's time for Protestants to go to the shepherd {Pope} and say "What do I have to do to come home?" {11/15/1987 , Calvary Contender} When Schuller was planning to build his Crystal Cathedral, he made a special trip to Rome to ask the Pope's blessing on the building plans. {Foundation, March-April 1990]
ARE YOU A "BILLY GRAHAM" FAN?
In 1985, the Paulist National Catholic Evangelical Association and Tyndale House Publishers jointly published "What Christians Can Learn from One Another about Evangelizing Adults," Which contained a chapter by Billy Graham. This book called for greater cooperation between Protestants and Catholics in so-called evangelism, and also included articles by Joseph Cardinal Bernardin, Robert Schuller, Bill Bright, Jack Wyrtzen and others." [Flirting With Rome. p. 31.
Note: Please ponder on this point, "Why did the the Reformation happen"? Was there reasons, Biblically, that compelled people, to risk life and limb, to stand with Bible's Principles? Remember, this system is STILL the Little Horn of Daniel 7, and she has not changed from then to now!
Note: If all these well known people, embrace the Vatican II philosophy, formed by the Jesuits, how much Protestantism is left in them? Are they still "PROTESTING" Rome anti-Bible stands? Can you see the why of this passage......
Revelation 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."
A LETTER TO THE POPE... PIUS XI.
In May 22, 1934 J.L. Day of Thomaston, Georgia wrote a letter to Pope Pius XI.. He asked "is the accusation true, that the Protestants accuse you of? They say you changed the Seventh day Sabbath to the, so-called Christian Sunday: Identical with the first day of the week. If so, when did you make the change and by what authority?
RELIED BY-- PETER R. TRAMER- EDITOR OF...
"THE CATHOLIC EXTENSION MAGAZINE" The largest Catholic Magazine published in the USA, 180 Wabash Ave, Chicago, IL
Dear Sir:
Regarding the change from the observance of the Jewish Sabbath to the Christian Sunday, I wish to draw your attention to the facts: CONT:
{note Genesis 2:1-3 , and the word Jew did not appear in the Bible until the Book of ester, near 2000 years after Adam and Eve, Jewish Sabbath?
Mark 2:27 " And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:" Man is that inclusive or exclusive?}
CONT:
(1) That Protestants, who accept the Bible as the only...........rule of faith and religion, should be all means go back to the observance of the Sabbath. The fact that they do not...... but on the contrary observe the Sunday, STULTIFIES them in the eyes of every thinking man.
(2) We, Catholics do NOT.......accept the Bible as the ONLY. . . . rule of faith. Besides the Bible we have the living Church, the authority of the church, as a rule to guide us. We say, this Church, instituted by Christ, to teach and guide men through life, has the right to change the Ceremonial Laws of the Old testament and hence, we accept her change of the Sabbath to Sunday. We frankly say, "Yes, the Church made this change, made this law, as she made many other other laws, for instance Friday Abstinence, the unmarried priesthood, the laws concerning mixed marriages, the regulation of Catholic marriages, and a thousand other laws"
(3) We also say that of all Protestants, the Seventh-Day Adventists are the only group that reason correctly and are consistent with their teachings. It is always somewhat laughable to see the Protestant Churches, in pulpits and legislature, demand the observance of Sunday, of which there is nothing in the Bible.
Note: Again whom should we follow? God or Man? Please take note in (2)'s claiming the right to change the CEREMONIAL LAWS? Well excuse me but the Sabbath falls under the Ten Commandments, that God Himself wrote on stone for eternal permanence! {Exodus 20:7-11} So it comes down to "What do
Y O U believe or rather WHOM do you believe, God or man. Of course we all know, man does not lie, right?
Yet this idea of self-empowerment goes much deeper for instance in Robert Sc huller's words:
"I'm dreaming a bold dream: that positive-thinking believers in God will rise above the illusions that our sectarian religions have imposed on the world, and that leaders of the major faiths will rise above doctrinal idiosyncrasies, choosing not to focus on disagreements, but rather to transcend divisive dogmas to work together to bring peace and prosperity and hope to the world;;;" Robert Schuller, My Journey p. 502.
NOTE: DOCTRINAL IDIOSYNCRASIES?
1. MAN HAS AN IMMORTAL SOUL..is a stock and trade belief for 96% of Christians, yet false!
Genesis 3:4 "And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:"
The above is Satan's first recorded lie, yet most accept it as truth!
1 Timothy 6:15-16 "Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords; Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen."
2: The dead go directly to their reward. This is a Pagan doctrine from Babylon, thus false!
Genesis 3:19 "In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return."
If Y O U believe, that you can still have life, after death, as dust, please pray and study your Bible!
Genesis 2:7 "And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul."
Note: Man BECAME, WHAT? a LIVING SOUL! Anything breathing and still living is a soul!
Ecclesiastes 9:5 "For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten."
Psalms 115:17 "The dead praise not the LORD, neither any that go down into silence."
Acts 2:29 " Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day."
REMOVE DOCTRINES? WHAT'S LEFT BUT HUMAN LITURGY?
ANY TEXT, TAKEN OUT OF CONTEXT IS NOTHING BUT A PRETEXT, PERIOD! NO DOCTRINES, means to guide nor road map to Jesus, might just as well watch a Hollywood musical instead! As all that's left is ENTERTAINMENT, WITH ZERO SPIRITUAL FOOD!
Yet all these people stand around , scratching their collective heads, wondering why Church attendance around the world is way down? When they hunger for truth, but are fed lies?" Ecumenical lies? What do we get when we mix truth with error? Such as: "There are many paths to Heaven"? When YOU read...
John 14:6 "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."
So, why is Rome replacing Jesus with Mary? Because the world's man-made religions, have no problems with Queen of Heaven ideas that have been around since Nimrod's death, and His wife proclaiming self Heaven's Queen, with rabbits and eggs ans pine cones as her fertility symbols!
THE NEXT LEVEL.. WILLOW CREEK AND BILL HYBELS.."SPAWNING the CHILDREN."
Bill Hybel, Rick Warren { Saddleback Church "The Purpose Driven Life" book} as many of the other Mega-Churches today.
Willow Creek Community Church Understanding the new terminology.
Visualization, Formation, Mentoring [coaching], Spiritual Direction, Consensus, ecumenism, seismic shifts, inter spiritual community, the changing face of worship, Stemming the Tide.
When you hear these BUZZ_WORDS run ,don't walk, run! Their teacher is Satan!
What is taught at Willow Creek?
Meditation promoter Keri Wyatt Kent, writes positively about "monastic Communities" and " the emergent church".[ right out of I.Loyola's book the father of Jesuitism] in her Willow Creek article, "Rediscovering Spiritual Formation." she writes that while there are some "Conservative" Christians who are suspect of spiritual formation [note john b as well they should be, as none of this is Biblical] , by and large the term and"the practice" have become"mainstream"
{J.B. sadly tis true, but when is the majority always right? Just look how many are rushing back to Rome, with PROTEST AS THERE ARE FEW PROTESTANTS LEFT!
Kent I.D's Scot McKnight as part of this mystical shift. McKnight acknowledges the Catholic connection to contemplative practices, Kent also brings into her article Catholic priest Richard Rohr who is in the same camp as someone like Matthew fox who believes in pantheism {god in everything, rock trees etc.]and panentheism [The Divine and universe are separate] . Richard Rohr wrote the foreword to a 2007 Book called "How Big is Your god?" authored by a Jesuit Priest Paul Coutinha, In this book he describes an inter spiritual community where people of all religions [Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity] worship the same GOD!
Mixing truth with error equals truth????? They, all man-made religions reject Jesus Christ, so explain how they get around this .....
John 14:6 "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."
John 3:5 "Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God."
1 Timothy 2:5 "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;"
Romans 5:15 " But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many."
Without anyone being's full acceptance of Jesus Christ, for their forgiveness of sin, NO SINNER can enter into Heaven nor have God's Kingdom within them. Thus they are lost eternally so!
NOW Y O U know the reason why Jesus said......
Matthew 24:4 "And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you."
Most people, don't have a clue, not even most Catholics, that Mary has been steadily pushed upwards in stature to eventually replace Jesus Christ, as HE is far too specific, to be their "Universal and Cosmic Christ!" She is today,worshiped in Rome, as "The Queen of the Heavens," The Mediatrix" between God and man, yet there is not one smallest hint that she been resurrected, thus she is still as dead, as David!
All this proves its easy for Satan & company, to fool people who have not, and know not God's Holy Word!
They CAN NOT deceive anyone who knows God own truth! You see the truth of men from Rome, requires no commitment, but if we transgress, why just confess to man, say a few more "Hail Marys:" drop something extra into the Plate and, go do it again! Especially if you've paid a hefty sum for an 'indulgence'! Which I call PREPAID SINS ON THE CREDIT CARD!
As for the Jesuits love for Monasticism and Monastic life, Martin Luther called earth's most evil institution!
King Henry the Eight, who most certainly was not a prude, called the Monastic system, unfit for any discussion nor description, they, must have been houses of filthiness! Remember all the Priests and their alter boys? Nothing new under the Sun right?
SO....WHO...are these people? California Catholic Daily March 15, 2007.
"Bongos, Dancers, And Father_Mother God: Richard Rohr's Mass at the Los Angeles Religious Education Congress."
"Rohr changed some of the prayers of the Liturgy of the Eucharist [liturgy, having to do with literature]. Opening the preface, he prayed "Father and Mother God.." Before the consecration of the host, he said "Before he was given up to death he said, "YES" to... and before the consecration of the wine, Rohr prayed, "when supper was ended, he gave you thanks and praise, and gave the cup to his beloved...."
"Following the consecration, Rohr said that Christ's blood "Will be poured out for you, and for all, so you will know your sins are forgiven." In praying for the departed (dead), he referred to them as, "especially your own beloved who are already with the Lord" {Oops I guess he never understood Gen 3:19's from dust thou art, and to dust shalt thou return", Nor...Eccl 9:5's "...the dead know not anything.." but he fully believed and accepted Satan's lie in Gen.3:4 surely NOT die]
Rohr prefaced the Our Father, by saying "and now, knowing we are more than one that we are many, though we come from different places and races, we all share the same Father-Mother god. we call upon our god, together, in the words that Jesus gave us: Our Father
who art in Heaven..."
Well not knowing who this man's Father-Mother God is, it is not my Father-God I assure you all!JB

SO, WHAT IS WILLOW CREEK MEAN TO THE ALL THE PEOPLE?
Many institutions of worship, send their people to study, to be learned in the Word of god, find instead Jesuit's belief system, which is the Roman Catholicism most people are not even aware of why> It is found in Daniel 7:25 and Revelation 13:2 and 2 Thessalonians 2
Daniel 7:25 "And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time."
The above led to this:...
Matthew 24:21-22 "For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened."
Time frame 538 A.D. to 1798 A.D. The "Dark Ages" of tyranny by Rome's "Believe as we say , or die" mantra!.
THE WHY...
Revelation 13:2 "And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority."
Earth is still Satan kingdom, at least until Christ's return and destroys all man-made kingdoms.
Daniel 2:45 "Forasmuch as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it brake in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure."
2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 "Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God."
Pope Pius 10th: Ruled 4th Aug 1903- 20 Aug. 1914 said this: The Pope is not simply the representative of Jesus Christ. On the contrary he is Jesus Christ, under the veil of the flesh" "Does the Pope speak? It is Jesus Christ who is speaking, hence when anyone speaks of the Pope, it is not necessary to examine but to obey"
Pope Pius 9th: "I alone am the successor of the apostles. The Vicar of Jesus Christ. I am the way, the truth and the life."
John 14:6 "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."
OK, so who has been fully deceived by Satan? Know Please know the reason for this verse....
Revelation 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."
The better one knows the Holy Bible the easier it is to understand, especially when with prayers one asks for the wisdom to understand it! JB
WILLOW MAGAZINE, ISSUE 4, 2007.
KERI WYATT KENT:: Rediscovering Spiritual Formation: From monastic communities to the emergent church, spiritual formation continues to shift and change the new generation of Christians.
"Thirty years ago, most evangelicals had never heard the term "Spiritual Formation," today it's the subject of Christian Conferences, Retreats, even emphasis in countless seminary programs... SCOT MAC KNIGHT, New Testament scholar, author and professor of religious studies at north Park University in Chicago, says even the acceptance of the term "Spiritual; formation", represents a shift in thinking, especially among evangelicals. Richard Foster's 1978 best -seller "Celebration of Discipline, and Dallas Willard's 1988 Spirit of the Disciplines, re-introduced evangelicals to classic spiritual disciplines such as solitude, silence and fasting and offered a more contemplative approach to Scripture and prayer.
Such spiritual disciplines has been a part of the Catholic tradition for a long time,,
{ JB.yes for about 1400 years thus time makes all things correct? Man has murdered man for 6,000 years, so is murder now OK as part of the human traditions?] But who are all those people? They are New Agers, waiting for their Cosmic Christ!
....... Although they were often practiced primarily with the wall of the monastic community [ thus out of the public eye and scrutiny!], Foster and Willard brought them to the evangelical community, although it took a while for mainline and evangelical churches to embrace them.,..MacKnight says...
I point of fact many Bible Following people admit that about 96% of all Sunday keeping churches now are running, headlong, back to Rome! As for keeping Sunday worship they NEVER LEFT her laws nor side!
So we MUST change, and what about the Holy Bible, has it changed YES! In far to many location the NIV. translations negate Jesus Christ's mane, position and His workings for us, so often, that it must be printed by Jesuits, opps it has been!
All this is what Ignatius Loyola, the founder and first General of the Jesuits, re-introduced as a way to replace faith in the Holy Bible! Is this the why, the why of Rome's holding their traditions and early writings of the Fathers above the word of God....... their words not mine!
We would do well, to remember, that Satan, is the brains behind all this, and he's had 1,000 of years to practice his deceptions!
By the way, most of today's "Mega-Churches", are run by graduates of Willow Creek's program! Plus the why they are all man centered, in place of Christ centered! This forces a QUESTION YOU MUST ANSWER: Can man save man, or self? NO, this is Jesus work and power! Satan's greatest efforts is keeping people out of Heaven, now you know the why of this SATANIC, spiritual garbage! None of this is from the Holy Spirit, period! I mean who needs another to tell them what to believed, and how we run our relationship with Jesus our savior? Just read the Bible and with prayers to understand, God shall not fail to answer!
So who wants to follow Willow Creek deep into the Mystical Occultist practices of the Catholic Church hierarchy, that most members never hear nor see about?
IF this is hard to swallow for you, go to any large Catholic church and look at the symbols on the floors, walls ceilings and furniture, after you've Googled occult symbols, and be prepared to be shocked! You can even google Catholic Cathedral's interior views and see the same things, They are so proud of their history they feel they are above human reproach, it seems!
"These courageous pioneers are not compromising the teachings of the Bible, nor are they fleeing from the Historical Christian faith and the gospel of Jesus, they are discovering innovative and Spirit-anointed ways to make the message connect for emerging generations" Seismic Shifts by Kevin Harney!
Wow! After 1,000's of years, we have found a new and better way to learn about God and Jesus?????
However, God in His wisdom knew this was coming so....
2 Corinthians 11:14-15 "And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works."
Therefore Allow me to ask, Which SPIRIT are these folks listening to! Are they being told to follow Jesus or to follow the men in Rome? THINK!
To all PASTORS: Preach the Bible's truths and your churches shall soon be full!
MOST of us have heard of Rick Warren, Dr. Warren is a global strategist, theologian, pastor, and philanthropist..The media has often maned him 'America's Pastor, America's most influential spiritual leader". As a Global Strategist , Dr. Warren advises leaders on leadership development, in public and private areas, plus on poverty, health education, and faith in culture.
He has been invited to speak at the United Nations, [Earth's Central Occult headquarters, ], the World Economic Forum in Davos, the African Union, the Council of Foreign Relations, Harvard's Kennedy School of Government, Time's Global Health Summit, and numerous congresses around the world. Time Magazine named him one of "15 World Leaders Who Mattered Most in 2004." and 2005 one of the "100 Most Influential People in the world. Also in 2005 U.S. News & World Report named him one of "America's 10 Best Leaders"
Is this the same Rick Warren, as a Pastor said in T.V. "I'll not allow revelation to be taught in MY church?
Where did he get his training? Also from Robert Schuller one of the co-founders of Willow Creek!.
Note: (jb) Robert Schuller's Crystal Cathedral, when he died his son took over, who ran it into bankruptcy. It was bought by the Catholic Church!
Warren: as a member of the council on Foreign Relations and Oxford Analytical, I might know as much about the Middle East as you". November 20, 2006 World Net Daily article by editor Joseph Farah.
Question is this not the mixing of State and church, which is what Islam is and what Rome was and wants desperately to be again! But what is this Oxford Analytical? It's a collection of Oxford Ph.D.s that ALMOST do not believe that god exists! {Remember science can't prove nor disprove God's existence!
"The Purpose Driven Life" P. 286. R. Warren wrote: "If you want Jesus to come back sooner, focus on fulfilling your mission, not figuring out prophecy".
But excuse DOCTOR WARREN, 2 Peter 2:1 "But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction."
It is Prophecy that warns us about Rome's deception in 2 Thessalonians 2. it seems you have already embraced her dogmas! Was it due to your lack of study of Prophecy of Daniel 7?
WHY do I say this? Ezekiel 3:17-19 "Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me. When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand. Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul."
Note: Never, ever forget, dear reader, this whole scheme is designed for one and one only purpose to defeat the Reformation, the movement that stood against Rome and with the Holy Bible, on Pope called a filthy rag!
Lance Witt, a Saddleback Pastor: writes, about contemplative prayer {Visualizations] in his article titled: "Enjoying God's Presence in Solitude." "we are designed to enjoy the presence of god, but that's easier said than done." In the article, with uses Thomas Merton as an example of someone who knew about solitude. But Merton's solitude was connected to his Buddhist sympathies. Merton likened contemplative prayer to an LSD trip.
WoW! Is he comparing, contemplative prayer to an LSD trip? Is that from experience or here say?
http://lighthousetrilresearch.com /warren promoting Take a bag of salt, as a grain is not sufficient. As this man has fully embraced the New Age occultism. Synergy of energy, is this religion or hokes-pokus?
P.E.A.C.E. PLAN: is a massive effort to mobilize one billion Christians around the world into a "church to church outreach effort, It is a plan by small groups to attack global giants of our day. Spiritual Emptiness, Corrupt leadership, Poverty, Disease and Illiteracy. These global giants are attacked in a holistic manner first in the church's local community {Jerusalem} nearby communities { Judea} and regional areas crossing cultural barriers {Samaria}, and globally to the entire world"
ONE WORLD CHURCH< ONE WORLD RELIGION [run by the Popes.] Rick Warren has repeatedly said: "This is why God made me. everything else I have done was simply preparation for the P.E.A.C.E Plan! That is a 100% Social Program, no religion!
1 Thessalonians 5:3 "For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape."
Warrens' Peace Plan:
P. plant churches
E. equip leaders
A. assist the Poor
C. care for the sick
E. educate the next generation [to think as YOU DR.?] Where's the Holy Bible fit in this plan Dr?
He want all to work to establish God's Kingdom on earth now! But that does not fit anywhere in the Bible! But it is Roman Theology!
Daniel 2:44-45 "And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever. Forasmuch as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it brake in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure."
Part 3 is next.
