Theme: Stone Tablet Prophesies Jesus Resurrection in 3 Days? (Gabriel’s Revelation)
Author: FIREKEEP
07 26th, 2008An interesting stone tablet surfaced in Israel.
As of now, testing has shown no reason to doubt its authenticity.
It has been called the “Dead See Scrolls in stone tablet form.
It would be the only artifact artifact that referenced a Messiah that would suffer, die and be resurrected.
see the english translation of it here:

Author: FIREKEEP
07 23rd, 2008For all the people out there voicing their opinions on Todd Bentley and using the opinions of others, hearsay, and their personal interpretations of the Word. For all of you looking for evidence that Todd is a false prophet, “tool of Satan” demon possessed etc. let’s settle this once and for all.
I challenge you to find a recording of Him denying Jesus came in the Flesh and post it as a link in a comment below. I would also ask if anyone has a recording of him acknowledging that Jesus came in the flesh to post it in a comment below. To take the Word literally if he confesses Jesus came in the flesh it will settle once and for all whether he is of God, or not.
1 John 4:1-3
1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 2 By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, 3 and every spirit that does not confess that[a] Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.
UPDATE: 7/28
I AM NOT SAYING THAT THIS IS THE ONLY TEST. BUT THE WORD STANDS ALONE AS A STATEMENT. I AM MERELY ASKING FOR EVIDENCE THAT HE DENIES CHRIST CAME IN THE FLESH. CERTAINLY IF HE WAS UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF DEMONS, OR A TOOL OF SATAN LIKE SOME BLOGGERS SUGGEST, HE WOULD NOT EXALT CHRIST. IT IS THAT PREMISE, THAT I CHALLENGE WITH THE WORD OF GOD.
I HAVE FOUND EVIDENCE THAT SHOWS HE EXALTS JESUS CHRIST, ACKNOWLEDGES HE CAME IN THE FLESH, AND FOLLOWS Mark 16:17-18

you decide if he is of God or not. It seems pretty obvious to me.
Theme: Todd Bentley Kundalini
Author: FIREKEEP
07 15th, 2008There are comparisons being drawn between Todd Bentley and the “manifestions” in the FL Outpouring relative to the Kundalini awakening found in eastern meditation, yoga etc.
see the article here: deceptionbytes.com
Here are some of my thoughts, but mainly just scripture on the topic.
Two Questions: Is Satan Stronger than God? Who are we praying to, Todd, or Our Father in Heaven? The answers to those questions will strike fear in your heart, or bring peace in light of God’s word. Most of these posts seem to imply that Satan can intercept the power of God and replace it with a counterfeit. Remember Moses, Aaron, and the Pharaoh’s Magii. Both could do the same miracle, but in the end, the Kingdom of God eats the Kingdom of Darkness. Be not afraid of the Devil to the extent that you lose your faith in God.
If we are praying to God, then what reason do we have to fear man, or devil?
Luke 11:5-54
9And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.
10For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
11If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent?
12Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion?
13If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
Can Satan intercept a prayer, and replace God’s answer with a counterfeit?
Luke 11:47
47Woe unto you! for ye build the sepulchres of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.
Luke 11:52-54
52Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered.
53And as he said these things unto them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to urge him vehemently, and to provoke him to speak of many things:
54Laying wait for him, and seeking to catch something out of his mouth, that they might accuse him.
I see this all as a heart issue. Who are we praying to? Are we seeking truth? Are we acting out of love, or out of fear?
Todd Bentley will answer to God, just like I will, just like you will. But if we go to a service and regardless of who is speaking we are compelled to seek God’s face, repent, turn from our sin, and run deeper into the arms of our loving Father then nothing can separate us from the love of God.
I invite the input of anyone who reads this. I seek truth.

Theme: John Crowder shares Jesus’ Love with Terrorists in Palestine
Author: FIREKEEP
07 15th, 2008Food for thought, from a guy who was offended when I first encountered John Crowder.
Confirmed by a leader of a mission trip to Palestine. Last year, John Crowder went with a small team of others to Palestine (Yes, the real Palestine, terrorist palestine of the nightly news). And they shared the love of Jesus Christ on the streets. Ultimately they ended up feeding the widows who were widows because their husbands were suicide bombers. The Israeli military escort would not even follow them into some areas they went into. However they remarked that they were impressed with the team — why? because they made it out alive.
Two ways to take this:
1. He was under God’s mighty hand of protection, and loving his enemies.
2. He is under the influence of the same pricipality/demon/spirit (whatever label you want to use) that governs terrorism, and as such was protected because he was “one of them”
you decide
If love is the greatest commandment, and a true measure of God working in us, and it alone is the standard of true fruit, then perhaps the assumptions and criticisms concerning the methods and mannerisms of John Crowder are based merely on ignorance concerning the facts.
Remember the prophet Ezekiel, and how he cooked his food over human feces to illustrate the point God wanted him to. (his actions were banned by the law).
Hosea married a prostitute. (again not something permitted in the law)
Jesus preached a sermon and told people they had to become cannibals - - - and did not explain it. All of the people listening to his sermon left considering him a heretic, except his disciples who only stayed because they had learned through relationship with Him that He alone had the words of Life.
Paul said: 1 Corinthians 2:4
My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power,
I am no longer content with just words being spoken by men with no answer from our Father in Heaven confirming with power.
Ask the Holy Spirit of God to lead you to truth.
Mark 16:17-18
17And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; 18they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well.”
On another occasion, (I believe in Atlanta) John Crowder was preaching at a service, and after the service was being mocked by a group of Satanists in a public area. He waited on God, went over to them and challenged them all (in a manner that actually took tremendous humility because it made him look like a buffooon) God answered with power and demons manifested, and some of the people were delivered on the spot.
For too long we have been content to sit inside the walls of our churches, and play our happy little church game, while a world rushes to Hell outside, and instead of rising to the occasion and doing the great commission ourselves, many of us decide to sit on our pants and analyze the warriors in the battle, calling it discernment. PLEASE
What would we say of David if we knew him today? He killed thousands of people, and was responsible for the deaths of countless thousands more. He saw a MARRIED, hot naked chic taking a bath. SLEPT with her, tried to get her husbnd to sleep with her so he could cover his own tracks, and then had the man killed because he would not sleep with his wife while the soldiers he was responsible for were still in battle.
Later, who is the child of David that GOD chooses to build his temple? None other than the second son of David and the adulteress Bathsheba: SOLOMON
This Christian life is not so simple and neatly packaged as many would like to present it.
Please hear my heart on this. My subpoint is God can use even our screw ups to accomplish His plans, if we aim our hearts his direction. I am not advocating that any of us intentionally sin. The last few years of my life I have been methodicaly and diligently seeking holiness, but in my quest for the same, I do not take license to start pointing the finger at others who are not measuring up to my interpretation of the Word of God.
Please let’s all seek intimacy with the Father, and pray for our leaders, and those who we call frauds. We can do more out of a heart for God, than a heart against people we disagree with.
