When the occult powers can *match* the alleged Christian thing?
It's like counterfeit money.

It would take someone knowledgeable to know what is going on.
That is why gaining more and more knowledge of sound doctrine protects the believer from being ripped off.

A dupe will like it because he can buy things he could not purchase before.
Like "acceptance" and approval.
Don't be dishonest. No Christian should be dabbling in any occult practice. It is idolatry. That dog won't hunt. I don't. I don't have to use heroin or crack to discern it is demonic and bad for people. The word of God says not to have it named among you.

Light has no part in darkness. The devil is not able to remove the light of GOD. He is overcome by it.
When one knows what God's Word teaches, that is the case.....

Stop acting like you can not read English...
Maybe, you need an interpreter?

What power were these deceived people working under? For, they were convinced it was God!

They even call Him "Lord!"
And, you claim no one can claim to call Him "lord" except by the Spirit?
That passage is not being rightly understood.

For here are workers of the Devil calling Jesus "Lord,"and acting like they assumed they were definitely saved!


Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven,
but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.


On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name,
and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’


And then will I declare to them,
‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of iniquity.'



Matthew 7:21-23​

For everyone to see that you don't get the point.....
OK




LOL, Funny You go to Mediums and Hypnotist for entertainment and use them to explain the gifts of the Holy Spirit or liken them to secular experiences. You say things that are listed in the word of God are not for today, Yet you Validate THE DEMONIC PRACTICES OF DEVILS, lol, AND YOU THINK YOU ARE proving I don't get your point? Hahaha Biblically. You are a confused puppy.

I'm convinced the only reason you two are on this thread is to distract from the message the Lord has given me to share. You do everything in your power to bury it within a hundred empty responses.

You two could have literally just had a private chat conversation this entire time. You felt it was your mission to distract people from what the Lord has sent me to prophesy (or you felt like you could gain some kind of attention here so you continued to wave your hands and shout to everyone passing by - congrats on your success.)

Jon... you are not a prophet.

1 Corinthians 13:8-9​
Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease;
as for (the gift of) knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part.

You are convinced you are a prophet.
That much we can know....

You reject what Paul told us.
That too, we can know.

Temporary gifts threads always end up this way.
And, I did not need to be a prophet to know that.......

Premonitions are not the gift of prophesy......

There are no more prophets, sir.
Only witnesses who hold to the TESTIMONY of JESUS.
There is NOTHING that needs to be added to the STORY of our salvation in by and through THE SON..
And anyone who does...well that one is made manifest is a false witness...
please revere His Name is Yeshua it means Salvation when you call Him that He smiles 😃

Genez, CS1, I'm not going to spend my time arguing with you two. I have better things to do - and so do you.

Our Lord Jesus Christ did not say, "Sit online and argue your theology and your self-righteousness." He said, "GO!" [Matthew 28:19 and Mark 16:15]

Why are you so offended if God has called me to be a prophet? He sent me forth with the message on my sign, part of which reads: "God will destroy the USA." Why not wait and see if He fulfills what He has sent me to prophesy before you condemn me? If the USA is still here when our Lord Jesus returns, then call me a liar and a false prophet right in front of Him. If He destroys it as He has sent me to prophesy, then what is that between me and Him and you? He told me to GO share that message, and I did as I was commanded. If he told you to do it, would you? [I hope you would regardless of what someone on a chat board says to slander your calling.]
If the generations of America, wicked as they may be and deserving of the destruction you prophesy, I believe truly, show some repentance by electing Trump, will the Lord God give them four more years to repent further and thus in the least the Millennial and Gen Z generation, which men are now adults, be spared the destruction that they and their evil parents the boomers and gen x have earned?

Had a dream I was in some kind of fitness class and the teacher was forcing my head to the ground in submission.

Then someone said to me the word "Druze". I looked into my lap, and it was full of multi-colored gumballs. The "Druze" gumballs were colored red and pink in the midst of all the other colors.

Then I woke up.

[I believe the Lord wanted me to share this dream. I know nothing of the "Druze" and only remember hearing the word perhaps one time in my life.

Remember how the Lord told me to watch for "Beirut" in a dream in early August. Then on my birthday, 9/27, Israel bombed Beirut and killed Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of Hezbollah. Remember this post and the word "Druze".]

Sorry, "watch for Beirut" isn't a prophecy. Common sense could tell someone there's a possibility Israel's conflict with Hamas might spill over into Lebanon. Winter is approaching in the northern hemisphere; I could say "watch for snow." That doesn't make it a prophecy. That's just my opinion, not a personal attack.

Show me any evidence prior to August 1st in which someone - anyone - had predicted or foreseen Israel literally bombing Beirut and killing Hassan Nasrallah. And then it happened on my birthday.

Here's how I explained it on my Facebook page, which is available to anyone who wants to see because I've linked it in previous comments above if you feel inclined to look:

Now, let's say I'm a man the Lord has called to prophesy. I travel the country prophesying, telling people what the Lord is going to do to the USA. I wrote a book about prophecy. I have prophetic dreams. What are the odds the Lord would give me a dream about this particular city and that it would be in the news headlines around the world on my birthday? The bare minimum odds of this happening are (days in a year) 1/365 x (cities on Earth) 1/10,000 = 1 in 3,650,000. Factor in that the dream was given to me of all people: 1 in 8 billion.

It defies mere "coincidence."

But, I also realize it's pointless explaining it. You guys think I'm a false prophet and all that. I really wish you could understand how much I don't care. It's not my job to care what you think. It's just my job to share what our Lord Jesus Christ shows me and do what He tells me to do. He's my Master, not you or anyone else on this site or in this world.
