Issue 94 – Don’t Pick on MY Fake Exorcist & Special Announcements

By Kirby Robinson

Hello everybody!

Special Thanksgiving Week Blog Series

C.C. Starbuck, the author of the book, Children of the Paranormal: Psychic Kids: Fact or Fake? has given us permission to serialize the book from November 23 through the 25. This is being done because our bloggers are taking a break and gathering with their familes for the Thanksgiving weekend. Now, anyone will have a chance to read the book that exposes the fakery behind the claims.

November 21, 2012: The Countdown Begins

From November 21 to the night of Dec 21, 2012, we’ll be focusing on one of the biggest hoaxes in ages: the end of the world has we know it. The dark forces are having a high old time enjoying snaring millions in the lie. 

So we will take a look at what most of the public isn’t seeing and bring the truth to light. Be sure to hit Wal-Mart, Target, Toys R Us, and all the other stores that are having bargains, as there will be a Christmas Day this year!

Don’t pick on MY Pal, the Fake Exorcist

When I was a child, the old folks would say that the reason nothing ever changed in Washington DC is that while everyone wanted to throw out the bum representatives and senators out of office, but no one ever want to throw out THEIR bum representatives and senators.

Recently, I got a response from a well-known critic of highjinks by demonologists and other folk in the paranormal running about casting out fake demons and leaving those with real ones to fend for themselves. This individual was very upset with the facts I presented.

It might be true what you’re saying, but the guy was my pal, so I don’t want the book to come out.

It’s very odd if you think about it. Everything I point out that the fake exorcist did, his name by the way is Andrew Calder, and the book’s name is Never Mock God. Yet everything this critic has publicly said: you should never film an exorcism for TV, that only Catholic priests should recite the Roman rite, has been changed because: don’t pick on my pal the fake exorcist.

The paranormal and Washington are so much alike. Don’t pick on my bum and everything will stay the same.

Bob Larson’s Been Watching WAAAAY Too Much Paranormal TV

Each time I think that Bob Larson is fading away, he comes back with a vengeance, just like in those slasher movies. No matter how much bad PR the guy gets he keeps popping back up.

For those who do not know who Bob Larson is, at one time or another, Bob’s been an evangelist, an author, a talk show host, and now an exorcist. He is someone that Andrew Calder studied closely. Here’s a link that shares all his latest actions from having a stable of teenage girls performing exorcisms to his plans to launch an online school for exorcists.

The next link is Bob performing a fake exorcism in a church. If you’ve had a chance to read my recent book, you’d know the man shows no demonic signs at all. Also, note that Bob uses the name of Jesus very little but he sure uses the word I a lot!

His Holiness the Dalai Lama Reflects on Working Toward Peace

Today's world requires us to accept the oneness of humanity. In the past, isolated communities could afford to think of one another as fundamentally separate. Some could even exist in total isolation. But nowadays, whatever happens in one region eventually affects many other areas. Within the context of our new interdependence, self-interest clearly lies in considering the interest of others.

Many of the world's problems and conflicts arise because we have lost sight of the basic humanity that binds us all together as a human family. We tend to forget that despite the diversity of race, religion, ideology, and so forth, people are equal in their basic wish for peace and happiness.

Nearly all of us receive our first lessons in peaceful living from our mothers, because the need for love lies at the very foundation of human existence. From the earliest stages of our growth, we are completely dependent upon our mother's care and it is very important for us that she express her love. If children do not receive proper affection, in later life they will often find it hard to love others. Peaceful living is about trusting those on whom we depend and caring for those who depend on us. Most of us receive our first experience of both these qualities as children.

I believe that the very purpose of life is to be happy. From the very core of our being, we desire contentment. In my own limited experience I have found that the more we care for the happiness of others, the greater is our own sense of well-being. Cultivating a close, warmhearted feeling for others automatically puts the mind at ease. It helps remove whatever fears or insecurities we may have and gives us the strength to cope with any obstacles we encounter. It is the principal source of success in life. Since we are not solely material creatures, it is a mistake to place all our hopes for happiness on external development alone. The key is to develop inner peace.

Actions and events depend heavily on motivation. From my Buddhist viewpoint all things originate in the mind. If we develop a good heart, then whether the field of our occupation is science, agriculture, or politics, since the motivation is so very important, the result will be more beneficial. With proper motivation these activities can help humanity; without it they go the other way. This is why the compassionate mind is so very important for humankind. Although it is difficult to bring about the inner change that gives rise to it, it is absolutely worthwhile to try.

When you recognize that all beings are equal and like yourself in both their desire for happiness and their right to obtain it, you automatically feel empathy and closeness for them. You develop a feeling of responsibility for others: the wish to help them actively overcome their problems. True compassion is not just an emotional response but a firm commitment founded on reason. Therefore, a truly compassionate attitude towards others does not change even if they behave negatively.

I believe that we must consciously develop a greater sense of universal responsibility. We must learn to work not just for our own individual self, family, or nation, but for the benefit of all humankind. Universal responsibility is the best foundation both for our personal happiness and for world peace, the equitable use of our natural resources, and, through a concern for future generations, the proper care for the environment. . . .

A new way of thinking has become the necessary condition for responsible living and acting. If we maintain obsolete values and beliefs, a fragmented consciousness, and a self-centered spirit, we will continue to hold to outdated goals and behaviors. Such an attitude by a large number of people would block the entire transition to an interdependent yet peaceful and cooperative global society.

If we look back at the development in the twentieth century, the most devastating cause of human suffering, of deprivation of human dignity, freedom, and peace has been the culture of violence in resolving differences and conflicts. In some ways the twentieth century can be called the century of war and bloodshed. The challenge before us, therefore, is to make our new century a century of dialogue and of peaceful coexistence.

In human societies there will always be differences of views and interests. But the reality today is that we are all interdependent and have to coexist on this small planet. Therefore, the only sensible and intelligent way of resolving differences and clashes of interests, whether between individuals or nations, is through dialogue. The promotion of a culture of dialogue and nonviolence for the future of humankind is thus an important task of the international community. It is not enough for governments to endorse the principle of nonviolence or hold it high without any appropriate action to promote it.

It is also natural that we should face obstacles in pursuit of our goals. But if we remain passive, making no effort to solve the problems we meet, conflicts will arise and hindrances will grow. Transforming these obstacles into opportunities for positive growth is a challenge to our human ingenuity. To achieve this requires patience, compassion, and the use of our intelligence.

Vision of the Dark Cloud Coming

By V.K. Bronz

1987

And the Lord said, “Go and pray in the harvest with Mary.” Now, it was midnight in Bangor, Maine and Mary was sound asleep, but I trudged upstairs anyways and jiggled her. Then I shook her, and finally I shouted, “Mary!” Slowly she  responded,“ Uh.”- “The Lord said we were to pray in the harvest.” With a thick tongue, Mary began, “Uh, yah. Oooh, Lord. Uh, we prraay your harvest comes. Uh Amen.”

Ok, this is not working!

Downstairs I went, curling into the corner of the sunroom. Praying and crying out for the harvest, I was soon lost in a vision: I was standing upon a huge boulder with a thick mist surrounding me, so thick I lifted my hands in front of me and I could not see them. To the right of me was a harbor with the spirit of God brooding way, way out upon the ocean. To the left of me was a patchwork map of the United States, just like how you would see it if you were looking out of the window of a plane.

As I stood there looking, a massive black cloud stretched from Washington down to the bottom of California. The black cloud rolled across the United States as a solid black wall until the United States was completely consumed by it. When it reached the east coast, and the country was covered, in an instant, the Spirit of the Lord met it with a huge bang.

The Lord spoke to me and said, “Obedience, obedience, obedience. I am not a God with a chair and a whip ruling my sheep with force. I need obedience to guard and protect you.

Blow ye the trumpet, sound the alarm in my Holy Mountain. Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble, for the day of the lord cometh; it is nigh at hand.

Obedience, obedience, obedience.

A day of darkness and of gloom, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, a fire devoureth before them and behind them a flame burneth:  Obedience, obedience, obedience.

They shall run like mighty men; they shall climb the wall like men of war; and they shall march everyone in a row and they shall not break their ranks.

Neither shall one thrust another; they shall walk everyone in his path; and when they fall upon the sword, they shall not be wounded.

They shall run to and fro in the city; they shall run upon the wall, they shall climb up upon the houses; they shall enter in at the windows like a thief.

Obedience, obedience, obedience.

The earth shall quake before them and the lord shall utter his voice before His army: for he is strong that executeth his word.

Obedience, obedience, obedience.”

The Lord in his great mercy and long suffering has been calling to his sheep for a long time to come to wash in his blood. But we have been to busy; making money building our kingdom enjoying the world. Even Solomon had to stop building his kingdom and focus on the house of the Lord.

Saul was a man that was called by God but immediately took things upon himself and disobeyed God. He continued for a long time pretending he had God until the judgment time had come and there was no room to pretend anymore.

Samuel no longer heard from God so he sought other substitutes, the paranormal; a witch to bring up Samuel from the dead to tell him what to do. Saul had one up on the church today: he knew he did not hear the voice of God. The church today has substituted the voice of God for the paranormal without knowing it.

In the sixties when the Lord began to pour out mightily, Satan was right there to take that seed and twist it. The Love God wanted us to know he had for us became; free love, make love not war, be loosed from the bondage of marriage and relationship and have sex with anyone freely, as long as it feels good do it.

The loving hand of care and provision God wanted us to know we had in him became name it and claim it. Take God's word and claim your Cadillac. God was the great Santa Claus in the sky.

The healing God wanted us to know he had for us became the foundation of false prophets to build their name and wealth upon. Now after fifty years of the perversion of Gods word to us the Lord has come to bring judgment; judgment born out of love. He has not come to kill the homosexuals or the abortionist he has come to set HIS church straight. Then he judges the world.

I think of poor Jeremiah. That man suffered. He could see the coming judgment as clear as day and knew he would have to suffer along with everyone else. “Repent, please,” he was crying, “maybe God will still have mercy on us.” In the dungeon he would go. “Repent. Repent. The judgment is coming.” In the tar pit he would go. “Repent. Repent. Turn yourselves  over to the Chaldeans, and you will escape death.” Off he went as a captive. Bless his heart, no one would listen. They even went so far as to try to kill him because they thought his message would discourage the townspeople from believing their prosperity and blessing was coming.

In 1998 the Lord began to tell me of the separation that He was bringing. He said he was going to begin to make a distinction as to who belonged to the lord and who did not. Each year there would be a greater and greater chasm (divide).  Not only is the Lord showing a very clear division of morals, but He is also whittling down, going deeper and deeper into the hearts of the Christians, to make the distinction of just who really means it and who doesn’t. The Lord is causing us to be more and more responsible for our actions and our words. Just how committed to God’s ways are you? Which side of the chasm will you be on?  

Incident Report & Evaluation, Part 1

Gather around the fireplace everyone and we’ll share a tale with you, not of pirates on the high seas or of adventures in foreign lands. No, our tale is about para-celebrities [real and fake], behaving badly, in ways we’ve all come to expect but not appreciate. The story will take three weeks to share and we look forward to three weeks of denial and threats coming our way at the EYE ON THE PARANORMAL… ‘cause that’s how we roll!

We thank Reporter X for bringing this story to us.

Deliverance Prayer

By Stephen Piersall,
Deliverance Ministry Central, NY  

We read throughout the Bible of the presence of Satan and his evil workings, as well as the authority and Power of God over him. We have the guarantee of our power over evil through the Holy Spirit within us. As Christians, God calls on us to provide healing prayers for our families, friends, enemies, others, and ourselves as necessary. We can pray for healing in many ways such as for the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs in their lives. Deliverance Ministry is all about winning souls for God, healing, and removing of the demonic accordingly. Prayer is one of the most powerful forms of devotion for spiritual healing and demonic removal. Once assured of the existence of the evil one, we can step out in faith and in the power of God’s Holy Spirit to pray for others in this area and to take authority over Satan and his demons (ghosts).

A book I would recommend that has been helpful is the Deliverance Prayers from Joy Lamb, “The Sword of the Spirit, The Word of God”. This book based on God’s Holy Scripture includes many Prayers for different situations. Here are just a few examples with some paraphrasing:

“I bind Satan, the ghosts (demons), powers, and forces of darkness. I bind all interaction, interplay or communication of spirits as it may affect any of the people and areas for which I am praying. I command in the name of Jesus Christ that all these satanic and demonic forces go to the feet of Jesus. I call forth and lose the Holy Spirit of God and the Holy Angels to come and cleanse every place where Satan has had a foothold in the lives and situations of any of these people and areas, and to fill each cleansed area with the life and love of Our Lord Jesus Christ, in the name of Jesus Christ.”

“In the name of Jesus Christ, I rebuke and break any curses, hexes, spells, demonic activity, or any other evil thing that has been sent against me or passed down through the generations to me or to any of the people or areas for whom I am praying.”

“I renounce and ask forgiveness for any negative inner vows made by me or by any of the people for whom I am praying. I ask that Jesus Christ release us from these negative inner vows and from any bondage, they have caused us. I take the Sword of the Spirit and cut free myself and those for whom I am praying from all generational sins, weaknesses, character defects, and cellular and genetic disorders, in the name of Jesus Christ.”

“I cut all bonds of all relationships that are not of the Lord, and put His Cross between us. We are cut free and we are free indeed (John 8:36). We are now free to become the children of God the Lord intended us to be, filled to overflowing with the power of the Holy Spirit of God, and the life and love of Jesus Christ.”

God is the divine healer and I have committed Myself 100% to do his calling for me to be involved in the Deliverance Ministry. As I do my morning/evening prayers, I have seen many times over of God’s positive influence in other people’s lives. Furthermore, I have been blessed, and honored to be a part of our local Church’s prayer team. God still is doing miracles, healings, and removing the demons in our daily lives. Lastly, I would like to ask you to keep me in prayer as I am having major surgery on 11/14/12.

Musings on Energy ... Reiki

By Reverend Mark Hunnemann

Before I plunge in, it is vital that we see that there have been two major shifts in our lifetime, which have made the rise of Reiki, spiritism, and a long litany of other bizarre beliefs and techniques possible. It is at the presuppositional/worldview level that we must start or we will miss the forest for the trees. There has been a fundamental shift in epistemology (how we gain knowledge), and specifically in the nature of truth. Truth comes to us either via REVELATION OR SPECULATION. The latter is the new normal and is characterized by relativism and subjectivism. Look inside for truth is the mantra of our culture. Second, the most essential component of any worldview is the question: what is ultimate reality? For our entire nation’s history, until fairly recently, there was a monolithic consensus that ultimate reality was an infinite/personal God who is distinct from His creation. During our lifetime, ultimate reality has largely changed to one where the Creator/creature distinction has been obliterated…specifically, ultimate reality is an universal energy or life force that pervades all the cosmos. THAT is the forest; let us now look at the tree known as Reiki. What is it, and should Christians engage in it, as many do?

Contrary to popular belief, Reiki is as old as the hills, but was re-cycled into its current form in the recent past. It is one of a large number of “energy therapies” that has grown out of the New Age movement. According to The International Center for Reiki Training, “…it is the God-consciousness called Rei that guides the life force Ki (chi/China, prahna/India) in the practice we call Reiki.” (added) There are three things about Reiki that make it incompatible with biblical Christianity.

NATURE OF GOD--The language is misleading when it comes to God because, like all Eastern derivatives, god is “god-in-everything-ism” or pantheism. There is no infinite-- personal God that we pray to for healing. The prayer is NOT to God the Father in Jesus’ name. Instead, an impersonal force is manipulated with the intent of bringing about healing. Using the linguistic symbol “God” is a dishonest attempt to make the belief in an impersonal, all-pervading force more palatable to western tastes. Rei is simply the cosmic energy force that gives humans their life force…ki. Reiki healers attempt to remove obstructions to ki so that it may flow or vibrate in synchronicity with Rei. So, at the all-important point of WHO God is, the Reiki notion is antithetical to the bible.

SPIRIT GUIDES—perhaps someone will say that they simply adapt Reiki healing principles without adopting their notion of God. However, to assert that betrays a woeful ignorance of worldview thinking. Like ghosts, Reiki healing/beliefs will not fit in a biblical worldview; they are antithetical. (soon I intend on doing a series on how to think with a biblical worldview).  Many people who have been the recipients of Reiki say that they feel MANY hands upon them as the “energy transfer” is taking place. If you look at their material, they unabashedly claim that spirit guides are an integral part of the healing process; they either assist or channel through the healer—depending upon their level of expertise.

Within a biblical worldview, the spirit realm s populated only by varying ranks of angels and demons….nothing else. Since these spirit beings are not Christo-centric, then they must be demonic—it is as plain and simple as that. We know from the angel of Light principle (2 Cor. 11:14), that Satan and his crew can mimic and morph into any shape they want to…which explains the vast variety of supernatural phenomena. They are capable of performing signs and wonders, which includes “healing.” Not everything that glitters is gold in the spirit realm, and (this is key) we must be discerning of supernatural evil (1 John 4:1)

Nature of healing—again, someone may object, “All healing is from God.” Really, what is your biblical text to support such a belief? There is plenty of anecdotal evidence to support that Reiki sometimes does extraordinary healing. Folks see this and automatically assume that God must be behind it. Just because an event is extraordinary or supernatural does not mean it is true! Consider this…is it possible that a demon may heal someone physically, but harm them spiritually? The obvious answer is yes, and I am distressed at the large number of folks being severely spiritually damaged by this form of “energy transfer.” Once one grasps the energy-centric worldview change that has occurred, then they are much better equipped to spot individual expressions of it…like Reiki.

What Exactly are Historical Place Hauntings?

By Lisa Grace

Some people who have visited old buildings, cemeteries, battlefields, etc. where something traumatic has happened do report seeing the same images or appearances, like short videos, happening over and over again. Some are tied to even a specific time.

If we know ghosts- defined as the spirit of a person, are no longer on this plain, then what are people seeing?

The Holy Scriptures speak of different types of spirits: fear, anger, etc. This is most likely what people are encountering. Evil entities composed of emotion that are reliving a moment over and over. There is great anguish tied to the event, which they cling to. Unlike a possessed person where the destruction of the individual is the target, these beings attach to the emotion. In effect, taking a small emotional video or snapshot of the person living the event.

They are no more the person than a Youtube video of a person is that person.

If you manage to communicate with one, you are in danger of having them attach, and follow you. Since it takes strong emotion (“the bait” to attract them), this may be a slim chance, which is why so many stay put in the location they attained the strongest feeling.
