Just listened to a four tape series by Derek Prince. 1. spirit of witchcraft, 2. spirit of anti-christ, 3. Islam, religion of hate and deception, and 4. the church's victory.
Was surprised at how well this man taught the Bible.
I could not remember why we thought he was off, then I googled a clip and found he was into shepherdship teaching. Then I read where he said later on in life:
In 1969, he teamed with Bible teachers Bob Mumford, Charles Simpson and Don Basham, and later Ern Baxter, to lead what became known as the "discipling" or "shepherding movement." The movement became highly controversial as reports circulated of manipulation and control by leaders. Prince withdrew in 1983, saying, "I believe we were guilty of the Galatian error: having begun in the Spirit, we quickly degenerated into the flesh."
"In the light of this," he said, "I repented of my involvement and renounced the error. I deeply regret the damage that was done to the body of Christ and in the lives of many promising young men and women. "
This brother was a Bible scholar with an interesting background.
Prince was born in Bangalore, India, into a British military family. He was educated as a scholar of Greek and Latin at Eton College and Cambridge University, England, where he held a Fellowship in Ancient and Modern Philosophy at King's College.
According to his biography, as a student he was a philosopher and self-proclaimed atheist. His conversion came during service in the British Medical Corps during World War II, "through a powerful encounter with Christ," after he began to study the Bible as a philosophical work.
When Prince married his first wife Lydia in 1946, she had eight adopted daughters, six Jewish, one Arab and one English. Lydia, who died in 1975, went to Jerusalem in 1928 from her native Denmark to run a children's home.
He married Ruth Baker in 1978. She died in 1998 in Jerusalem where they had lived since 1981.
Its amazing how divided we were over doctrine in the body of Christ and no one ever considered praying for others that God would make a way of escape from any deception.
Anyway was blessed by this brothers messages.

I don't know if you have heard about the new documentary that is coming to theaters in your area. It is called: No Safe Spaces
Its about these groups of people going around america and telling us what we can say and can't say and they are working on taking away our freedom of speech.
I know someone who sat in a required government meeting and someone from one of these groups was telling them were not allowed to say "Sir" or "Ma'am", because this is offensive to people of various genders. It was a two hour long meeting telling them what was offensive and hateful speech. No longer can you refer to a boy as "he" or a girl as "she". The person was totally shocked by what they heard. This stuff is being taught in grade schools.
Any Rate this movie is exposing the removal of free speech in America. I got an email tonight saying that the movie would be in out area soon, and I noticed Alabama was on the list of states. I saw some clips of the movie, it seemed very informative. A lot of this New age thinking is being promoted on Campus's and they have courses on the subject of offensive speech. A lot of gay groups are trying to teach a new language and put fear on people who won't listen, they have the colleges working with them to supposedly stop all the hate speech.
You might want to check this one out when when it comes to theaters near you. I think you can google the movie trailer.
In Him,
Gary

Sad to hear Reinhard Bonnke passed away. He was 79 years old. We heard him preach here in Bloomington years ago. This brother had a very powerful anointing. I still remember the message he taught.

I'm picking my brother up at 5am in the morning and we are going to drive to Daphne AL to look at a motor home.
I'd invite you along but I'll be driving the Chevy Tracker and it doesn't have much in the way of a back seat!
Blessings,

Sorry about being offline last evening. I've been moving to a new server and it took awhile to get everything figured out.
I hope to update the software in the next few days so it might look a bit different but the content should be the same.
Blessings,

This is a sermon by David Platt, pastor of The Church at Brook Hills in Birmingham, AL. I have made comments over the years about the shallowness of the 'denominational system' and so quick to lump them all together. Here is an example of a sound, Biblical call to repentance and a turning unto God....in a Southern Baptist Church.

If the link doesn't work every time, just go to YouTube and type in "repenting of sin and returning to God" David Platt and it will bring it up.

The angel Gabriel told Mary………
37 For with God nothing shall be impossible.
38 And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word.
Luke 1:37-38 (KJV)
Behold your handmaid (your servant)
Tho I don't understand or comprehend this........
Be it unto Me according to thy word !
I pray as we read and study Gods Word that our attitude should be as
Mary’s was:
Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word.
Blessings

Another weekend of violence, sexual inuendos, reveling, lust, and greed has finally past.
I read an article that said they expected 100 million people would watch the superbowl. One third of this country and the number is more likely higher.
We can all see what is important to the American people.
And that is Sin and the pursuit of sin. I can see why so many in other countries keep saying judgement is coming to America.

Those Aussies...
This is a real exchange I witnessed today between an American, an Austrailian, and a New Zealander (on a Christian forum).
So the American (Yankee) guy is challenging a statement by the Kiwi and says to the effect, "saying that that is true doesn't make it true any more than saying I'm your Huckleberry."
So the Kiwi(New Zealand) says, "Sorry pal, but your colloquialism goes right over my head."
An Aussie chimes in with, "Sorry mate, but for us down under, isn't everything over our heads?"
Speaking of Aussies, a Sincere shoutout to our fellow Christians 'down under'...
btw: being someones 'Huckleberry' means 'your man for the job', or 'your guy'...saying made popular by Doc Holliday in the western movie 'Tombstone'.
“But God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us,”

Anybody heard of or seen the ad campaign that's sweeping the country? It's called 'I Am Not Ashamed'. Here's the link to their website, I found the comments viewers made down below interesting and some were a blessing.
Hey! It's better than a Nike 'just do it' ad...

I've removed the test area and the maillist associated with it and since
nobody liked my innovative initiative I've removed it as a public option.
I of course will still be able to leap over tall buildings using
the software (designed for superheros) while the masses will still need
to use the subway system. Never fear, I will only use my power for good.
I should have realized that most were not ready for change, but I must
press on... new challenges call for new solutions... and that my friends
is change we all can believe in!
<grin>
