“I would always look up to these people getting “words from God” and wished that I could have this special relationship with Him as they did. I desired it – so why wasn’t God speaking to me the way He spoke to them?” Chrissy has allowed me to include her story in this series about […]

Leaving the NAR Church: Phil’s story
Something supernatural is going on in the NAR movement. I once thought this to be the Holy Spirit. I now believe it to be demonic, Satan disguising himself as an angel of light. Phil’s hunger for God was idolatry. He was focused on wanting more and more experiences of God’s “presence,” but instead received the […]
Leaving the NAR church: Jessie’s story
“I saw myself as a far superior Christian! I belonged to a church that was restoring prophets and apostles, and was right on the cutting edge of what God was doing on the Earth.” Jessie was fully steeped in the NAR (New Apostolic Reformation) movement without realizing it.

The NAR – You Will Know Them By Their Nuts
Church Watch Central has an exposé on Jesus Camp. In it, CWC demonstrates the unconscionable way children are indoctrinated into the New Apostolic Reformation cult by leaders such as “Apostle” Becky Fischer. CWC posted a video showing children being brainwashed by this woman that has been blocked. So Berean Research replaced it with two short Youtube videos […]
Gladiator-style takedown of demonic forces…naming names, Part 2
By Marsha West It really doesn’t matter whether or not people believe in angels and demons. And it doesn’t matter if skeptics think those who do are wingnuts. The fact remains that a large number of educated, intelligent people believe in supernatural beings such as angels, demons, spirit guides, fairies, ghosts, poltergeists and whatnot. It’s […]
Angels, Demons & Spiritual Warfare
Do not turn to mediums or necromancers; do not seek them out, and so make yourselves unclean by them: I am the LORD your God. (Leviticus 19:31). Do angels and demons really exist? The Bible says they do. Mentioned by name are two elect holy angels (the good guys): The Archangel Michael (Daniel 10:13) and Gabriel who […]
Sozo – a dangerous “inner healing and deliverance ministry”
Before I get to Kim Olsen’s blog post, those who are unfamiliar with Sozo prayer need to know more about it. First of all, Sozo prayer is the brain child of husband and wife team Bill (self-proclaimed modern-day apostle) and Beni (New Age guru) Johnson, both of whom are pastors of the infamous Bethel Church in Redding […]
