Note my comment below (in blue), showing how Hagee deceived Trump into thinking he’s helping rebuild the temple for good; though, it will be an abomination where animal sacrifices will burn, and from where the antichrist will rule during the tribulation, giving the order to chop off Christians’ heads.
Hagee told Trump instead that Jesus will rule from the temple, but this can only happen after the end of the tribulation — if there really will be a millennium.
This is reverse-Christianity.

The Evangelicals Who Pray for War With Iran
Mike Pence and Mike Pompeo, who urged Trump to kill Qassem Soleimani, are ardent proponents of Christian Zionism.
Last Friday, a day after Iranian Maj. Gen. Qassem Soleimani and nine others were killed in a U.S. drone strike in Iraq, the Christian Zionist advocacy group Christians United for Israel emailed its millions of supporters to praise President Trump’s move. …
“First Love – A Historic Gathering of Jesus Music Pioneers”
I found this wonderful gem in which some of my favorite Christian musicians from my early walk with the Lord in the ’70s and ’80s gathered in this cabin in 1997.
[Those who influenced me in bold text]:
• Randy Matthews
• Barry McGuire
• Annie Herring
• Chuck Girard
• Matthew Ward
• John Fischer
• Andrae Crouch
• Jamie Owens Collins
• 2nd Chapter of Acts
• Terry Clark
• Keith Green tribute with Melody Green
• Randy Stonehill
• Love Song
• Paul Clark
• Darrell Mansfield
• Honeytree
One of my favorite albums in those days was “To the Bride,” a two record set of live concerts by Barry McGuire & The 2nd Chapter of Acts, released in 1975, my first year after finding Christ.
Excellent message about American Christianity verses real Christianity. How theologians have twisted the written word of God!
“Fear” means fear! Lukewarm is gross to God!
27:10 “I’m praying that something I’ve said through the years sticks, and especially this morning, that the Holy Spirit of God would light a fire in some of you to where you work out your own salvation with fear and trembling, right now.”

Ughhh!
We should have the “all healed” revival happening, instead of this stuff going on. Why are so few “Christians” interested in getting real Christianity going, the way it’s always supposed to be: Jesus’ prayer in John 17 and Paul’s standard in Eph. 4:11-16. What’s wrong with us?
No presence of God in churches, no healings, hardly any interest in prayer. Church leaders not getting right with those they hurt. [I’m not saying this was true with Bonnke. But it is true with many I know personally.]
Many years ago about, 35 years ago I was severely backslidden, I had turned away from Jesus and I was serving satan well. I was in corporate business and doing extremely well. …
Please go back to Him, because as long as you are away from Jesus, if there’s sin between you and Jesus, you are in danger of hellfire. We have to make sure that there is no sin between us and Jesus.
How is it okay that today’s ‘churches’ no longer have the presence of the Lord?
Melody says:
“In 1975…, I walked into a Bible study with Keith … during worship…, and I felt the presence of the Lord. And I thought ‘I don’t know what these people have, but I want it.’ … So it was the presence of the Lord that touched me before I ever heard the gospel. … So worship is an essential part. …
There’s something that the presence of God, and worship, and prayer touches in our spirit….”
James explains what has happened since 1975. God can’t live where people hate one another, raising unholy hands.
This is beautiful!
I heard a lot about Bob Jones (1930-2014) about 30 years ago. Mike Bickle especially talked about him a lot. This is the first time I’ve really dived in myself, soaking up every word, transcribing many.
Annie Herring, from the amazing 70s’ and 80s’ group “2nd Chapter of Acts” shares how Jesus set her free, empowered and equipped her!
I first me Henry Gruver in about 1990, when friend invited me to watch the Ron Wyatt discoveries video Henry was showing to a small group at Anchorage Christian Center (ACC).
Years later, I was able to participate in a short prayer walk that he led in Anchorage.
The last time I saw him was when he spoke at a hotel in Anchorage.
In the late ’90s, I got his Russian Invasion of America visions videos from The Prophecy Club, as well as Dumitru Duduman’s on the same subject. Russia and China is preparing to successfully carry this out, while our media is almost totally silent.
Henry Gruver’s Obituary 1942-2019
Keith was a child prodigy who had just signed a 5-year recording contract as a rock ‘n’ roll singer with DECCA Records.
His first record was “The Way I Used to Be” | side 2: “A Go-Go Getter.”
Melody Green posted this on Facebook, saying:
So worth another watch, Keith at 11 on “I’ve Got A Secret” TV Show. When we met, he always asked me if I noticed his lisp… I tried, but never did. It’s evident here. He must’ve outgrown it, but at first he was very self-conscious about it, with me. He is so cute. So confident. But needed a bit of help answering questions from the celebrity panel. On his way to a life in showbiz, but God had her plans!
True story. The year was 1965!
Keith found Jesus a decade later. He definitely was a go-getter!

Keith Green had a big impact on my life. He was only four years older than me, and actually became a Christian about the same time I did, ’74-75. He died at only age-28. It’s absolutely incredible what he, his wife Melody and their friends were able to in just seven or eight years! Melody says in the film they were in Woodland Hills, a suburb of Los Angeles.
Praise God they were able to attend Ken Gulliksen’s rich, Holy Spirit anointed meetings right away, which was the start of the Vineyard movement. I didn’t find a church I could relate to until 1981, when I moved to Alaska and found Abbott Loop.
I listened to all of Keith’s music, and still have all of their “Last Days Ministries Newsletter” issues.
His legacy was so big, the vision and momentum, that something was seriously lost when he died in 1982. Christianity moved forward for awhile, but then floundered. The Vineyard movement fizzled out in about 1991. [Our church was autocratic, and the founder never did fully repent or reconcile. Anyone who said something was considered anathema. We were like the church of Sardis in Rev. 3:1-6, having a “‘reputation’ for being alive, but….”]
Keith wouldn’t have put up with the world taking over the church like it has. Hardly anyone today seems to have his passion for doing whatever God wants no matter what — “no compromise.”
This story is wonderfully told by Melody, their friends, and the great people who once were Sparrow records, which was later bought out by a secular label. Christian music was wonderful in the ’70s and ’80s! It’s so spiritually dead now. Keith would have never put up with that, and he ended up giving his music away for donations of any amount. He wanted to make sure the world didn’t compromise him through the love of money, and fame too.
I wonder what the world would be like now had Keith not died so early. He showed the impact that one sold-out man for Christ with great friends can do.
Today’s ‘Christian’ radio stations in America like K-LOVE won’t even play even one of his songs. That’s how sad and pathetic ‘Christian’ music has become — deadsville. This needs to radically change. Instead of “no compromise,” their message is “go to sleep;” “Jesus loves you no matter how much you willfully sin and don’t repent or reconcile.” That’s ‘Christian’ music today, and what is preached from most pulpits today too. Churches have almost no holiness, no presence of God, no passion. We have fake churches right now almost everywhere. Keith Green would freak! Imagine how Jesus feels right now with almost everybody doing their own thing, and acting like it’s okay.
Quite a story here! We need to get serious. We need to live no compromised — which is just normal Christianity, the way it’s always supposed to be.
ABOUT THE FILM
This film was apparently released in 2002. This version is the best quality I could find online, and ends at 1:02:25, where it repeats part of it again, strangely. So it really is only an hour long.
Art Mathias, founder of Wellspring Ministries in Anchorage, Alaska tells his scary and wonderful story! I transcribed these quotes:
“Fear is the opposite of faith. If I’m in fear and worry I am not trusting God. So I had to repent for the fear, go back into faith, start believing God’s promises, then the pain levels would come down. As I got rid of my bitterness, as I got rid of my resentments, as I learned how to forgive and really fall into obedience to the scriptures, then my fear went away, my physical body settled down, my immune system healed. Then my physical body healed.”
“Forgiving from our heart is a choice. … I purpose and I choose to forgive from my heart. And the tormentors*…. The only way we can get rid of those heavy, negative emotions….
“We see literally thousands of people healed every year as we teach them how to forgive.”
* The “tormentors” (Mt. 18 KJV) are actually demons. My article, which has changed minds on this key subject:
Host: “Can a born-again Christian lose his or her salvation?
John Piper:
“The answer to that question biblically is a resounding, clear, emphatic, joyful, glorious no. … The life that is imparted in the new birth is precisely eternal life.”
“Perseverance in faith is the evidence that we’ve been made part of Christ. And when that perseverance doesn’t hold, then we were never in.”
“It’s assurance rooted in our confidence in an absolutely sovereign, covenant keeping God….”
This is erroneous because God sovereignly states His covenants are conditional. The new covenant is conditional upon us abiding in Christ, which dozens of New Testament scriptures say. See:
Only those who overcome, who didn’t defile their clothes will not have their names removed from the Book of Life (Rev. 3:1-6):
He who overcomes will be arrayed in white garments, and I will in no way blot his name out of the book of life…” (Rev. 3:5).

I met Henry three times when he was in Anchorage in the ’90s. My jaw dropped when he showed a few of us the amazing Ron Wyatt Discoveries video at ACC. Later, I saw him when he spoke in a nearby hotel, having had a bad experience in the local churches. We also did a group prayer walk.
Besides being known for prayer walking cities, he had an important series of dreams/visions of Russia and China invading the USA.

[2-hour audio] Henry Gruver with Steve Quayle: Visions of War – Visions of Heaven
Caspar McCloud posted this on Facebook, 7/11/18.
An update on Henry Gruver’s condition.
As many of you may have read on The Joseph Plan website Henry Gruver has been a friend and teacher of mine for many years. I have shared and learned a lot from Henry. Over the last month Henry has been deathly ill. He got sick while ministering in Toronto, Canada. The doctor said when Henry was admitted to the Toronto hospital that was within 1/2 hour of death.
Key points:
2:00 The bargain he made
3:50 Transformed after going to the crossroads
8:00 “Those early songs were like almost magically written.”
11:00 “I never said ‘I’m born-again.'”
14:20 “Bob Dylan was right about this: you’re either going to serve the Devil or serve the Lord.”
The Scofield Bible—The Book That Made Zionists of America’s Evangelical Christians
By Maidhc Ó Cathail
“For a nation to commit the sin of anti-Semitism brings inevitable judgement.”
—The New Scofield Study Bible
Since it was first published in 1909, the Scofield Reference Bible has made uncompromising Zionists out of tens of millions of Americans. When John Hagee, the founder of Christians United for Israel (CUFI), said that “50 million evangelical bible-believing Christians unite with five million American Jews standing together on behalf of Israel,” it was the Scofield Bible that he was talking about.
Although the Scofield Reference Bible contains the text of the King James Authorized Version, it is not the traditional Protestant bible but Cyrus I. Scofield’s annotated commentary that is problematic. More than any other factor, it is Scofield’s notes that have induced generations of American evangelicals to believe that God demands their uncritical support for the modern State of Israel.
