This two-part video is the best examination I’ve seen of Todd Bentley thus far. And one of the most disturbing! I encourage all believers to watch this video, especially those who are following the pied pipings of Bentley.
This video is of Bentley recounting his experience he claims he had with beings that he calls “angels.” He tells of being beamed up through a ceiling and placed onto an operating table in Heaven (seriously) where these “angels” strapped him down and cut him open (seriously).
If you want to know more about what possesses Todd Bentley I believe this two-part video says it all. I’m thinking “Legion.”

Part Two: (This video has images depicting alien abduction that can be disturbing)
There are so many people, especially in my own denomination . . . because of the pathetic theology and pathetic preaching . . . on church membership rolls—and they are as lost as they can be. Because we have forgotten that salvation does not cometh by praying and asking Jesus to come into your heart; salvation does not come by going through four spiritual laws and saying a prayer at the end; salvation does not come by all these silly little mechanisms we’ve developed. It comes as a supernatural work of God through which God regenerates, makes the heart alive, He gives the man repentance, He gives the man faith, the man repents, he believes and is saved. And it is a supernatural work of God that manifests as much if not more of the power of God than when God stood on the first day and said, “Let there be light.”
Just when you thought Romanism had the market on stigmata and liquids oozing from statues, the signs and wonders wolves in this video are now giving the superstitious Roman Catholics and Charismatic Bentley-ites a run for their money.
Your Sermon of the Week is part three of a four-part family series by Paul Washer. This one is entitled Responsibility, The Duty of Fathers. Listen to it here or download it here. Paul Washer delivers a profound sermon on the family that should be heard by everyone. I encourage you to check out parts one and two.
We are too apt to forget that temptation to sin will rarely present itself to us in its true colors, saying, “I am your deadly enemy, and I want to ruin you forever in Hell.”Oh, no! Sin comes to us, like Judas, with a kiss; and like Joab, with an outstretched hand and flattering words. The forbidden fruit seemed good and desirable to Eve; yet it cast her out of Eden. The walking idly on his palace roof seemed harmless enough to David; yet it ended in adultery and murder. Sin rarely seems sin at its first beginnings. Let us then watch and pray, lest we fall into temptation.
After watching this video (especially after the five-minute mark) I am thoroughly convinced that this is nothing other than pure demonic possession and you are witnessing demonic manifestations taking place.
Especially look for the unnatural almost non-human way Todd Bentley’s head twitches, quivers, and shakes uncontrollably. You can also see this same phenomenon occur in this short video.
The following two short videos are of a Roman Catholic apologist leading a class on the defense of the Immaculate Conception. He starts off the conversation explaining his conversation with a Christian youth pastor (who evidently needs to spend less time playing games and organzing ski-trips with his youth group and more time studying the Word of God to know what he believes and why he believes it).
The speaker is interesting to listen to but my head really spun when this apologist and his class used the pure conjecture of worldly human wisdom (and very minimal Scripture) to dismiss Romans 3:23 . . . when “all” doesn’t mean “all.” He also provided us with his “most important verse in the Bible” in an attempt to justify his point.
Now things get really interesting when one student in the class named Frank brings up a great point: If Mary was sinless, then why did she die if indeed death is the wage of sin? If Mary was sinles then she would have never died.
The Catholic apologist teaching the class seemed to realize this was detrimental to his teaching so he provided the quick but incorrect reply “Mary was still human.” Allow me to remind the teacher that humans only die BECAUSE OF SIN! The teacher’s pious answer sounds humble but it fails to address the fact that if Mary knew no sin then she should not have died.
The teacher quickly moves on and just when he thinks he’s out of the woods, another student (who brought up the Romans 3:23 problem) directs the conversation back to Frank’s inquiry: If sin = death + Mary died = she must have been a sinner. Even with the valiant effort of another pupil who jumps in to help–trying to just explain the problem away with human reason–it still leaves the teacher a little perplexed. He tries to use the sinless Messiah as an example but obviously forgot that Jesus took on the sins of the world, Mary did not.
In spite of all the speculation and assertions hurling around the room (very little if any of it being Scripture) Frank didn’t give up so easily–still pressing the issue. Finally, after seeing the gaping hole in this Romish false doctrine of Immaculate Conception, the teacher decides to “shift gears.”
All in all, the two videos (6 minutes and 5 minutes respectively) are actually rather entertaining. If you’re going to watch these videos, however, be prepared to jump through some wild hoops as you follow along.

Apparently when Pope Pious IX proclaimed the doctrine of Immaculate Conception in 1854, he couldn’t imagine those pesky little verses (Romans 3:23 and Romans 6:23) causing so many problems.
Were it in anywise possible for something to occur apart from either the direct agency or permission of God, then that something would be independent of Him, and He would at once cease to be supreme.
Both in India and in my travels around Western countries, I constantly uncovered a preoccupation with so-called “ministry” activities operated by Christian workers, financed by church monies, but with little else to distinguish them as Christian. . . . Social concern is a natural fruit of the Gospel. But to put it first is to put the cart before the horse; and from experience, we have seen it fail in India for more than 200 years. Yet while I realized the intrinsic nature of the Gospel involved [in] caring for the poor, I knew the priority was giving them the Gospel. Meeting their needs was a means to share the love of Christ so they would be saved for eternity.
The oh so hip and relevant “church” that brought you The Gospel According to Bruce Springsteen, now brings you associate pastor Mike Moran’s sermon scheduled for Sunday, May 25th from his Relationships ‘R’ Us series entitled “Part 4: Sometimes You Have to Use the ‘F’ Word.” Seriously folks, I can’t make this stuff up.
And apparently this church’s youth activities include mixing teen boys and girls in a hot tub together. But whatever you may be thinking about Grace United Methodist Church, they recommend you don’t ask too many questions about the man dressed in drag in this flash presentation (which happens to be presented in the context of people who worship and praise God in all kinds of ways imaginable).
Leave your Bibles at home for this one folks; a whole month of sermons based on Bruce Springsteen’s lyrics await you at Grace United Methodist Church (and the descent into complete apostasy continues).
Read this article about the Reverend Morris Brown using Bruce Springsteen’s music to teach the Bible.
Brown says a lot of thought is being put into the sermons so as to not alienate non-Springsteen fans.
Whew, thanks Reverend Brown. Now what about not alienating those who expect faithfulness to the preaching of the Word, sound biblical teaching, a separation from the world, and a reverence for the things of God? Or have those “fundamentalists” already been run off long ago?
His past series offerings playing off pop culture have included a “Games People Play” summer series using board-game strategy and “Lessons from the Motley Crew,” in which the sermons played off the name of the popular rock band Mötley Crüe to talk about spiritual lessons to be learned from the lives of Jesus’ 12 disciples and Mary Magdalene.
I can only imagine what’s next.
Oh wait, I don’t have to imagine, there is more here.
When all is said and done, God is the Gospel. Gospel means “good news.” Christianity is not first theology, but news. . . . But what is the ultimate good in the good news? It all ends in one thing: God Himself. All the words of the gospel lead to Him, or they are not gospel. . . . This is crucial. Many people seem to embrace the good news without embracing God. There is no sure evidence that we have a new heart just because we want to escape Hell. That’s a perfectly natural desire, not a supernatural one. It doesn’t take a new heart to want the psychological relief of forgiveness, or the removal of God’s wrath, or the inheritance of God’s world. All these things are understandable without any spiritual change. You don’t need to be born again to want these things. The devils want them. It is not wrong to want them. Indeed it is folly not to. But the evidence that we have been changed is that we want these things because they bring us to the enjoyment of God.
The pastor in this video shows a clip from Rob Bell’s Nooma video Dust and then examines the lies that spewed from the mouth of this false teacher. After watching the video clip from Dust I have to wonder what the difference is between Rob Bell, Oprah Winfrey, and Dr. Phil.
The wicked boasts of his heart’s desire, and the greedy man curses and spurns the Lord. The wicked, in the haughtiness of his countenance, does not seek Him. All his thoughts are, “There is no God.”
Christian recording artist Steven Curtis Chapman suffered a great loss when his youngest daughter was accidentally killed after being struck by an automobile.Here’s the sad story.
Reverend José Gabriel Funes, head of the Vatican Observatory and a scientific adviser to Pope Benedict XVI believes so!
The Vatican’s chief astronomer says there is no conflict between believing in God and in the possibility of extraterrestrial “brothers” perhaps more evolved than humans.
Funes, also went on to say such things as, “The extraterrestrial is my brother,”and “Why can’t we speak of a ‘brother extraterrestrial’? It would still be part of creation.” Funes alsobelieves we were created billions of years ago by a big-bang.
Rene, a DefCon reader, sent me a post from another blog in which the writer told of his recent visit to a seeker-sensitive social club “church” and the prize his four-year-old daughter won in Sunday school. Check it out here.
