Church-State Setbacks - What's Going On?!
.  
Informed Christian Digest (ICD) endeavors to inspire both Prayer and Action in our response to local and national events. Not just one or the other, but BOTH prayer and action, just as we need both faith and works (Jas. 2:20, 26). But, in light of recent Church-State setbacks and numerous other advances by the kingdom of darkness, we must examine the root causes of our losses to set our course straight and diminish a continued escalation of the same.
.  
Of course, we know that the Bible says that men will become worse in the latter times, but that does not excuse us to enter into passivity, hiding away in our fellowship meetings from the evil in our society. We are still called to be visible light in the midst of darkness (Matt. 5:15-16; Eph. 5:8). But, isn't it time that we examine our approach, which may be costing us so many defeats? If we are wise, we will open the eyes of our hearts, lest we become Ichabod -- an apostate people of God.

What's Going On?!
by Bob Sperlazzo, Editor
September 2003
.  
QUESTION: Why is the Church losing so many battles and court cases lately?
.  
You name it -- just read the headlines:
 • Losses of religious freedom
 • Sodomy & homosexuality rulings
 • IRS rulings
 • Abortion decisions
 • Government tyranny
 • Pornography advances
 • Twisted interpretations of the First Amendment
 • Attacks on public displays of the 10 Commandments or other historical Christian monuments
 • Etc., etc., etc.
.  
...We are losing badly in America (not to mention Canada and other nations, as well). With all our efforts to fight the forces of darkness, lately, the Gates of Hell seem to be prevailing!
.  
The Question is WHY???
.  
Perhaps, some understanding as to why can be found in 1 Samuel ... what a perfect picture of the Church today! Chapter 4 tells of a battle that Israel (the people of God) lost against the Philistines (representing the enemies of God). Israel fought hard, but lost badly -- about four thousand men were slain. As a result, they decided as an afterthought to bring God into the picture to aid them in their battle. So, they sent for the Ark of the Covenant.
.  
Notice, the Israelites clearly seemed to understand, although they forgot briefly, that the primary basis for victory was ultimately not found in the natural strength of either army alone. Rather, they knew that there were spiritual forces at work, which needed to be factored in before natural strength was ever considered and before victory would be assured.
.  
But, instead of inquiring of the word of the Lord and His blessing, they first went at it alone, and later (after being beaten), chose to send for the Ark of the Covenant. Although the ark was a symbol and resting place of the presence of God, it was not God Himself, and it did not ensure His hand in their deliverance. Yet, the Israelites actually said, "IT may save us" (meaning the Arc, not God, v. 3). Thus, they exalted the FORM of godliness above GOD Himself (2 Tim. 3:5). Like the heathen, they had religion and zeal in their fight, but they lacked the true power and presence of God. And, although the Philistines dreaded facing the God of Israel, they defeated them again and, astounded Israel by stealing the Arc of the Covenant itself!
.  
Is this not the way we, the people of God, have been approaching our battles against the forces of darkness today? We presumptuously rush into battle without inquiring of the Lord, using only natural weapons to fight (eg, the courts and the law). It's not that our cause is wrong or that the law is not in our favor. But, we often lose a sure case, because the victory was not FIRST won in the spiritual realm, BEFORE the natural victory could be realized.
.  
"For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh, for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses. We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ" (2 Cor. 10:3-5 NASB).
.  
"No one can enter a strong man's house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man. And then he will plunder his house" (Mark 3:27 NKJV).
.  
"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood (ie, people), but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places" (Eph. 6:12).
.  
The "strong man" represents the spiritual/demonic enemies of God. Thus, according to the Word of God, it appears that we've been going about it all wrong. Consequently, we are losing ground.
.  
We all know how frustrating it is when we don't see the immediate results that we would like to see when fighting against the evil in our society. Many Christians have given up totally and have retreated in hopes that it would all somehow change. But, the Bible says, "When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him" (Isaiah 59:19). That "standard" is the battle flag of the Army of the Lord, around which you and I and the rest of the Body of Christ who are called by His Name and have His Living Word within us gather for conquest!
.  
In the days when Rome ruled the earth, the Early Church recognized the fact that they were not battling against people, per se, so they took action by spiritually warring in prayer and destroying the strongholds, taking authority over the enemy in the spiritual realm FIRST, before seeing results to their subsequent efforts. Only then were they able to effectively bring all of Rome to a complete halt, and see the Kingdom of God reign in the earth!
.  
Our challenges are not much different than those of the Early Church, and if we would follow their example and plan of action, we might actually see more of the changes that we all desire in our dark world. We need to actively infiltrate every aspect of our society, wherever we are now and wherever we can eventually be. When we go up against the "principalities and powers and rulers of the darkness and spiritual wickedness in high places," we must use the Name and Authority of Jesus Christ to "bind the strong man," as He told us, and THEN we will be able to more effectively take the land. If we change the spirit of the land, God will move on our behalf, just as He did on many occasions for Biblical Israel and the Early Church.
.  
We've made a lot of noise and splashed around a lot, but much of it has been hopeless. We've been religious (our own efforts and external standards, like the Pharisees), which produces nothing but scorn from the world. Jesus often rebuked the "blind leaders of the blind," because they thought their religious efforts demonstrated that they had light and revelation within themselves.
.  
Just like the Israelites, we have taken on ourselves the name Ichabod, which means, "the glory is departed" (1 Sam. 4:21a). And, all that remains is our own efforts: dead works (Heb. 6:1; 9:14). We are like the foolish Galatians, who were bewitched into deception. And Paul asks them, "Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the Law, or by hearing with faith? Are you so foolish? Having begun by the Spirit, are you now being perfected by the flesh?" (Gal. 3:1-3). Yet, the weapons of our modern-day warfare are most often of the flesh, devoid of the power of God to have any effectiveness whatsoever.
.  
Jesus rebuked the Pharisees and Sadducees because they could discern the weather signs in the sky, but couldn't discern the signs of the times (Matt. 16:1-3). In that regard, I sense that, symbolically, it's as though God is using the present situation in Montgomery, Alabama to speak to the Church, if we'll hear Him. Chief Justice Roy Moore, a true believer, is not in any way wrong about the Church-State matters for which he is under fire. The truth is that Moore is 100% correct about the fact that the 10-Commandments are fully allowed and legal according to both the Alabama and US Constitutions. But, I believe that God is using this situation to give us a prophetic picture. God is allowing the symbol of "The Law" itself to be removed from our midst, to get our attention, just as He allowed the very Arc of the Covenant to be removed from Israel, in order to bring our dependency back to Himself -- because He is a jealous God.
.  
For too long, we've had our guns pointed at the EFFECTS of evil, rather than at the ROOT CAUSE of evil -- the ruling spirits that are subject to Jesus' Name. We spend all our time and money fighting people, who are bound up by these very ruling spirits, rather than taking the battle to a higher level FIRST, and then helping these blind and bound up people to be set free (Eph. 6:12). And when we don't see our carnal efforts make a difference, we give up, wondering why God didn't move on our behalf.
.  
Should we quit and go hide away in our meeting places while licking our wounds, or should we just get smarter and actually DO what Jesus said to do?! Most of us are so afraid of doing something that might associate us with the Charismatics, that we would rather ignore what Jesus clearly told us to do than to risk criticism from the others around us. We need to get back to the Word, as we have so often claimed that we do. We call Him LORD, and do not do what He says to do because our man-made denominational dictates don't allow us to be obedient to Him.
.  
If God has truly raised us up and seated us in heavenly places with Christ to reign with Him (Eph. 2:6), are we not working under HIS Authority to effectively accomplish these things. And if we do as He commands us to do in obedience, will we fail or will His Word fall to the ground void? NO! But, our problem has always been our failure to do the job as He told us to do.
.  
I'm all for marching against unrighteousness businesses or wickedness in our society and for contacting our governmental representatives -- but we need to work smarter by following GOD's lead instead of our own ineffectual plans, just as the Early Church did. We need to get God's strategy for each battle that we face, and stop wasting our time and money by following our substitute religious traditions, which are proving to be virtually ineffective.
.  
It takes BOTH prayer AND action, as we are led by God's Spirit. And when we do this, we'll start to see the changes for which we are all crying out. We'll see the prince over abortion come down. We'll see the rulers over homosexuality and pornography come down. We'll see the powers over Hollywood begin to crumble. But it won't be by our shallow efforts any longer -- it'll be by GOD's power and in HIS ways (Isaiah 55:8-9).
.  
For too long, we have been "holding to a FORM of godliness" (upholding righteousness by our own efforts and the law, like the humanistic Pharisees), "but denying the POWER thereof" (just as God said we would do in the last days, 2 Tim. 3:5). And, lately, we're seeing the results of our passivity, and we wonder why all our efforts have not been working.
.  
But it's not too late. Time is passing, but God is still on His throne. And, He can take ONE dedicated Christian to make a difference. Think what would happen if EACH ONE of the millions of Christians in this Nation alone would follow this plan of God for victory! We would see the Church revived, and the ruling darkness in the world would not be able to stand against us! But it's up to each one of us to make that choice.
.  
I pray that God will put it into the hearts of more and more Believers to have the courage to stand up and be counted among the "Mighty Men of David," who started out as a bunch of "distressed," "in debt" and "discontented" failures (1 Samuel 22:2), but were eventually changed to a valiant army that could not be defeated. May God grant us the willingness to do likewise!

History: Some Results of Our Passivity
.  
Editor's Note: Listed below are only a small sampling of the results of passivity on the part of the Church in responding to such spiritual attacks against our Nation. A coincidence? Hardly. But, before we point a finger of blame, let us accept the responsibility for our own failures as the Church to be salt and light in a dark and dying world (Matt. 5:13-16). And let us begin to use SPIRITUAL weapons to gain the upper hand....
.  
Economic Adversity
.  
On Saturday, 9/28/02, a ceremony called "Honoring the Sea" was performed on the beach of Santa Monica, to worship "Yemanja, the Brazilian Goddess of the Sea." Is it mere coincidence that the ports along America's West Coast were closed afterward, costing the US $1Billion a day?  Or, is the worship of other gods by witches causing our Nation to be cursed?
.  
As reported by National Public Radio KPCC-FM on 10/1 & 10/2, 2002: "24 ports from San Diego to Alaska had closed." Los Angles/Long Beach alone had 72 ships anchored out at sea, with 32 more due in the next couple days that could not enter the ports. Effect on the US economy is One Billion Dollars Per Day, which is more than the war with Iraq. The closing of these ports affects the entire world economy. Truckloads of produce and beef at the docks are rotting. This effect will start showing up at your local stores. California Governor Gray Davis put out an appeal. Taft Hartly Act requested by senators.
.  
Earthquakes
.  
1. June 28, 1992-Landers quake -- Gay Pride Day, followed by Supreme Court decision not to overturn Roe v. Wade (third greatest earthquake 20th century to hit mainland USA.)
.  
2. October  17, 1989-Loma Prieta quake -- Two days after huge pro-abortion march in San Francisco (tied as fifth greatest earthquake 20th century).
.  
3. October 16, 1999-Hector Mine quake -- Two days after California governor declared he wanted the state to lead America in homosexual domestic partnerships, and two weeks after the this legislation was passed (tied as sixth greatest last century).
.  
4. April 25, 1992-Petrolia quake -- Height of attack against the national Operation Rescue event  in Buffalo, New York (tied as sixth greatest earthquake last century).
.  
5. January 17, 1994-Northridge quake -- Day after Sanctity of Life Sunday and five days before  the twenty-first anniversary of Roe v. Wade (eighth greatest earthquake).
.  
6. June 28, 1992-Big Bear quake -- Gay Pride Day and Supreme Court decision not to overturn Roe v. Wade.
.  
7. April 23, 1992-Joshua Tree quake -- Supreme Court abortion case hearing and attack against Operation Rescue in Buffalo, New York.
.  
8. September 12, 1994-Next to last day of Cairo conference -- The United States through Vice President Al Gore tried to push for universal abortion rights throughout world (tied in magnitude with number 6).
.  
9. February 28, 2001-Seattle quake, Washington -- Seattle held a Mardi Gras event to coincide with the one in New Orleans, rioting, fighting, etc., during this event. Literally, at the very end of the Mardi Gras the earthquake occurred.

When the Power Departs
by P. Andrew Sandlin
July 21, 2003
.  
The High Cost of Powerlessness
.  
And she [Delilah] said, "The Philistines be upon thee, Samson. And he awoke out of his sleep, and said, I will go out as at other times before, and shake myself. And he knew not that the LORD was departed from him" (Judges 16:20).
.  
The power for godly cultural change is identical to the power for godly individual change -- the Holy Spirit (Zech. 4:6). It just so happens that the modern Church, by and large, has lost interest in the Holy Spirit -- or so grieved Him that, as in the case of Samson, He has withdrawn His holy presence, and we forge intrepidly ahead, so spiritually insensitive that we are not even aware of our bankruptcy (Rev. 3:15-17).
.  
When the power departs, we become especially skilled at techniques, tactics, and strategy. Evangelism becomes a blueprint for gathering sinners' scalps, rather than a byproduct of holy submission to the Lordship of Christ. Church growth becomes a well-conceived strategy rather than a Spirit-empowered revival. Church Leadership becomes a facade of warmed-over secular psychology cooked up in the organizational ovens of cutthroat CEO's. Cultural Christianization is a slap-dap program of back-room business deals, glitzy demographic charts, and high-powered political consultants. (And yet we wonder why the Holy Spirit is barely within praying distance.)
.  
When the power departs, we become increasingly clever and impressed with ourselves. We snicker at all-night prayer meetings as we devour our systematic theologies -- and everybody who doesn't agree with our Biblical interpretations. We imbibe the latest sociological data, assimilating it to the Lord's holy temple, and we scoff at the "old-timers" who had the temerity to think that obedience, holiness and faithfulness would suffice to fill the pews. We develop an ecclesiastical aesthetics, in love with the beauty of the Kirk -- and not the holiness of the King (Heb. 1:8-9). We criticize the "emotionalism" of the Pentecostals and revel in the error that intellect is more significant than emotion -- and less vulnerable to Satanic seduction. We fashion the Church as a well-oiled machine, a weekday bureaucracy and Sunday "worship service," in which the actions of all "participants" are carefully calibrated and choreographed. We don't need the Holy Spirit; we're pretty smart all by ourselves.
.  
When the power departs, we love to master the Bible, but the Bible no longer masters us. We parse verbs and exegete verses, but on Sunday we hear -- and deliver -- dry-as-dust sermons so bereft of Holy Spirit power that they couldn't convict a serial pedophile. We are quite confident theologically that the days of New Testament Holy Spirit power were historically unique and that we cannot expect much more than a highly "rational" faith and Sunday worship.
.  
And sure enough -- our experience mirrors our expectations: no holy, supernatural power; no dramatic conversions; no healings; nothing but a rational, aesthetic faith. And then, intuitively embarrassed, we draft theologies to justify our powerlessness in the eyes of the saints who read in the Bible a very different Faith than the one they observe in church every Sunday. This is the plight of a people who find clever substitutes for the power of the Holy Spirit. To be sure, getting that power is costly.
.  
Lacking that power is costlier.
.  
The cure for our ills? A new infusion of the power of the Spirit: "If 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?" (Lk. 11:13).

First Bind the Strong Man!
by DPM
August 2003
.  
"The Body of Christ fights the devil much more like Iraq's army fought the US: unorginized, unfocused, no communication between generals, no real objectives, no unity, hiding in the bunkers, running away, no compassion for the people of their territory, surrendering to the enemy. Maybe that is why things havn't changed much??"
.  
Question: Do you want just a few people saved or do you want nations saved? If you actually have the heart of the Lord, you will want the entire human race saved! Therefore, if you want to save nations, then affect Hollywood's programming. The programming is what is pushing them further from God. This is how the demonic realm controls people.
.  
To affect the programming, we need to find out what is "inspiring" these ideas into men. We need to rule and reign over the generational witchcraft in the Hollywood industry, bringing it into subjection to the Name of Jesus Christ. Jesus actually said, "...first bind the strong man" (Matt. 12:29)! Their salvations are a direct result of taking the strong man's spoils! Jesus didn't say: "First, get people saved." Getting people saved is a reward of taking dominion away from the demonic realm. It is dethroning powers and principalities that govern entire cities, until there is no longer a place found in the heavens for the devil.
.  
One ministry in Hollywood had a heart for cleaning up the prostitution on Sunset Blvd. They would labor and labor and struggle, and sometimes put their people in danger, even at gunpoint. Even though they would spend much money, they got very few people saved. This is the light or revelation in which the current Church trains us. God sent us to this pastor and explained that there were several ruling spirits on different blocks. After we identified the locations to him, he said, "That is strange, you know we can preach all day long to people in those locations, and we can never get them saved. However, if we take that same person down the street, they will give their life to the Lord."
.  
"Simple," I said, "you need to FIRST bind up the STRONG MAN over that area. Then, and only then, can you plunder his goods (the souls over which he rules)!" This pastor took this to heart and followed this simple three-step procedure:
.  
1.  Bind the strong man (Matt. 12:29)!
2.  Stop partaking of the world's cup. In other words, if you are trying to get women out of prostitution, stop sneaking away to watch Bay Watch. You cannot cast out that thing that you love!
3.  Stop preaching to them. Instead, pray for whatever they need, and let the power of God answer them. After all, we are not supposed to be selling our doctrinal take on our denomination, but rather, introduce them to the "tangible" presence of the Living God!
.  
Within a few months, all -- and I mean ALL -- the prostitution was gone from Sunset Strip in Hollywood! The pimps got saved and so did the girls! Is that all there is to it? No, that is not all there is to it, but this is already more than today's limited Church revelation will tolerate.
.  
What is the present condition of that area of Sunset Strip today? Jesus said, when a spirit goes out of a man (or city), if we do not fill that place with an occupational presence of the Holy Spirit, the devil will try to take back the territory seven times worse (Lk. 11:26). Today: Hustler Magazine's store is now on Sunset Strip, where the prostitution was. As far as we know, there was no "sustained" presence lifted up in that gap after the prostitution was removed. In other words, there was no spiritual authority or power-filled church plant. The ruling prince over that area simply morphed into a more established presence. We do not know of a Church, or even an anointed prophet, standing in the gap in that location.
.  
Just study real military warfare. It's simple. We are in a war, even if your pastor doesn't preach that. If he does, why isn't he then thinking and training like a military commander? Does he believe that there are actually demons just like Jesus demonstrated, or are demons just a figment of our over exaggerated imagination, as the psychology-based churches would have us to believe? We have plenty of religious hospitals catering to the soul or the broken emotions of the individual. There is just no properly trained spiritual army to rule and reign over ALL the works of the enemy, and occupy until Jesus comes!
.  
A Proven Strategy
.  
Getting the Church unified, trained and rid of the "religious" fear that controls many, and getting them focused, is yet another monumental work. The recent Argentina revivals had a strategy:
.  
1.  First bind the strong man
2.  Unify the churches
3.  Worship throughout the city (about the size of Santa Monica)
.  
The results?... 97% of the people saved including the top government officials! Are we so unlearned in the Word of God? Do we not realize: whatever spiritual kingdom is over a region, that ruling entity is what controls the unsaved people who respond to it? Why isn't the Church teaching us how to change the spiritual kingdom over the region we want to reach BEFORE we attempt to reach them? Maybe they don't know how ... blind leaders leading the blind? Where are those who will actually teach the strategy to first identify the strong men and then how to bind them? You want major territorial revival? Then first, bind the strong man (just like Jesus did), and then you can plunder his goods, i.e. the people over whom the demonic rules. Then, multitudes will be saved, thus fulfilling the great commission!
.  
There is tremendous demonic power being released today, because yesterday's Church would not deal with the decades of Hollywood witchcraft. And now, after years of this flood being spewed from the dragon's mouth (located in Santa Monica Bay) over the entire continent via the Hollywood media, if we the NEW "Church of David" do not learn to stand in the gap, we will begin to see this type of craziness and destruction all across our Nation.
.  
What is conceived in Santa Monica bay becomes reality in the rest of the Nation within two years! It is only those who have the revelation, as did many of those in the Bible, who understand the heart of God and do as He did and stand in the gap. This lack of revelation or motivation is rampant throughout the Body of Christ. Thus, the principalities have their way as they kill, steal and destroy (Jn. 10:10). The only problem is that this "judgment" also affects the Body of Christ and our families as well. Time to WAKE UP!
.  
God expects us to stand in the gap and shield our territories. Who is really following Jesus? The programming out of Santa Monica Bay is affecting the world... MTV, FOX prime time, Playboy, Universal, MGM, AT&T, World Media Communications and hundreds more located in Santa Monica. To affect the world, you must take the communications center first! Why else do you think the cults have focused here? Because the Church is under a religious spirit; that is why they won't come in here, plain and simple. Through a spirit of religion, the devil is directing the Church, and the Body of Christ is losing the battle. Don't believe me, just look at your TV and your kids. Time to WAKE UP!
.  
A Late Start
.  
Because of the Dalai Lama's head start for over 20 years in Santa Monica and Beverly Hills (while the Church was asleep tickling their ears on the latest "rapture" novel), we have had major portals opened where heavy demonic princes enter in to control these people, as well as jump on the video tapes and films that are now seeding our nations.
.  
Many people you meet in this Hollywood media territory think the Dalai Lama is god. I know you find that hard to believe, but all you need do is look at your TV and movie programs and notice the tremendous Hindu/Buddhist influence. (In the spiritual realm, these are all linked to the same demonic being.) You see, it didn't take getting many into this religion; just the "right" ones in the media control area. Then, they will work to convert the "spirit" of the Nation.
.  
Did you know that we have now lost the only three Spirit-filled churches next to MTV, one of the most powerful programming mediums against the youth of the world, which is also located in Santa Monica. Now, a Hindu group bought one of the church buildings, because we could not get the attention of the Body of Christ to understand how important it is to conquer and hold the ground next to MTV, FOX Prime Time, Playboy, MGM, Sony, Universal, AT&T, World Media Communications, etc., etc.
.  
For the record, Playboy, Fox Prime Time and MTV are the ones who lead the rest of the networks with depravity and destructive programming. Where are these located? Again, SANTA MONICA! We do not have any Spirit-led and Spirit-filled Church presence next to these any longer, and a spirit of Christian religion never could and still can't conquer ANYTHING! The American Film Market (AFM) fiasco blew several out of this territory.
.  
This is a War!
.  
Question: Will all this email petitioning by the Body ever really cause those judges to overturn the ruling on the sodomy laws not being upheld? While the Church had/has placed its faith in the Law, those judges responded to the "spirit" over the land. That "spirit" has been released and programmed as normal behavior into our society by focusing first on this media city. It is only by affecting the ruling prince over the man, situation or city will we ever actually be effective.
.  
Why could we stop Freakylinks and BlairWitch II and Bay Watch, but these other tactics that many fall back on never seem to work? What was the reason the Texas Supreme Court did not uphold the sodomy laws? Simple, somebody had been affecting the "spirit" of the land from Hollywood, while the Church, as usual, put it's faith in the Law, and pushing the Law, and trying to force others to come under the Law or acceptable doctrine. The point is that no law will stand when the demonic spirit or attitude prevails over a country. Look at Nazi Germany!
.  
When Dalai Lama was exiled from Tibet, he went to Nazi Germany. Haven't you ever wondered how such a small insignificant country could become so corrupted and such a world threat? How could an entire society go mad, seeking to "purify" out those with the spirit of God. Why were the Christians and Jews the target? The Dalai Lama is famous for his signature "mandala" ceremony. This event opens a "gate" and calls through major principalities. Once these principalities were strong over Nazi Germany, this craziness began. The more blood sacrificed, the stronger the demonically possessed these people became.
.  
Who stopped this demonic invasion? The American Army in World War II. Look at the facts: most were Christian, as that which had already taken a hold of Nazi Germany had not yet invaded our Nation. Perhaps China knew what it was doing when it evicted the Dalai Lama and the Tibetan masters who ascended from hell! Now, this Christian America needed to be conquered. What is the best way to change the "spirit" over a country? Through the media, that's how. From where is the media controlled? Los Angeles. What is the best port of entrance? Santa Monica Bay: the source of demonic power.
.  
Why Santa Monica?
.  
Santa Monica is the landing place for the Dalai Lama. For over 20 years now, he has been going all through this city and now others, including Pasadena, doing his infamous "mandala" ceremony, evoking major principalities. When we first arrived in Santa Monica specifically to affect the Hollywood Media, there were over eight principalities in one small city. Why? These same principalities twisted the Germans' minds and attitudes until they were killing Jews and Christians. Haven't you noticed how Hollywood hates the "Spirit" of God? Look at all the latest $100-Million movies and the Hindu push. THIS IS NOT A COINCEDENCE!

Who stopped that demonic extermination of God's people? The USA, that's who! So, now it is time to conquer the USA. What is the best way to control the USA? Release major principalities into the nation (as was done in Nazi Germany) by first entering into Santa Monica Bay/Beverly Hills and affecting the media that programs the people. This has been going now for over 20 years.
.  
The UN plans to set up the Dalai Lama as the world religious leader in the year 2005. Who will be our next president? Another Christian? Doubtful. Why don't Christians do what the cults do and focus on changing the "spirit" over our nation? Probably, because they do not have access to the media from where it all starts. So again, God in His infinite mercy sends in prophets to confront the giants, take them down. And then, usually, the Body of Christ ... does nothing!
.  
When will we, the generals in the Body of Christ, actually consider the entire battlefield, before launching an assault? And, even more so, when will we actually hear the intelligence briefings by the prophets who know these principality's personalities from their own in-your-face dealings with them? The few churches in the actual media territory, who "set the pace" for the rest of the studios and the world, were blown out or severely damaged.
.  
MTV is arguably the strongest programming weapon against the youth of the world. Because of our inability to capture the focus of the Body of Christ, these principalities have blown out all the spirit-filled churches from around MTV, Playboy, FOX prime time, MGM, Universal, Sony, AT&T, World Media Communications and a host of other major influencers. The nail in the coffin was during the 2003 film market, when Christians were lured away from this key position to distant Pasadena. Playboy, Universal, MGM, Fox Prime Time and hundreds more are in this territory. One important difference today: instead of any type of Spirit-filled Christian presence, we now have Hindu and Buddha around these studios. What kind of an influence will this have over these studios now?
.  
Since the AFM 2003 fiasco, Fox is shooting a brand new program and concept. That's right, now you can get the "Wet T-shirt" programming right on prime-time TV in your own home. More than likely, the other studios will follow suit, however, the effect will not touch your kids for at least 6-8 months, so just sit back and enjoy until this wave of wet T-shirts hit your young boys. Moms around the nation are contacting our ministries only AFTER their son sees something sexual on TV, and then sexually molests his sister. Another mom's daughter, after watching a witchcraft TV program created in Santa Monica, gets involved with witchcraft. Now multiply that by thousands upon thousands. Is it starting to register why some territories are more important than others?
.  
Why do parents wait until the problem hits their own household, until they are spending thousands of dollars on doctors, lawyers, counselors, etc., instead of spending only hundreds to support those few of us on the front line who are actually making a difference? Can't you see that if more became involved in "preventive" procedures, millions wouldn't need to walk through the problems in which they are battling today? Naw, that's too revelational... Let's just keep with our religion, and keep our "Eyes Wide Shut," until the problem enters our own home. The spirit of religion seems to have a knack at getting the attention and money from the sheep who will not have their eyes opened. This same spirit of religion is an expert at diverting the attention away from the "root" of the problem by throwing "retreats" as far from the battle zone as possible.
.  
What is produced in this city manifests into the reality of the streets across America within two years. Notice the witchcraft programming has been lightening up. That is from a constant warfare in Santa Monica Bay for the last eight years by the loud-mouthed ranting and raving prophet in that territory attempting to TRUMPET as loud as possible, so as to wake the Church out of its religious slumber to focus on the SOURCE!
