    From a personal perspective, I know this to be so! Istopped trying "to fix the old" about three years ago.

    As it pertains to "the new,"I recall that in the year 1981,--- afew months before I entered into ministry--- I heard theaudible voice of God call my name and say softly and

    quietly, " Pam, I am about to do A NEW THING with Mychurch. Can I use YOU?"

    I had no idea what the Lord was talking about 30 years ago,because as an unchurched, newly born again person, Ididn't even know anything at all about the OLD thing! Iwas completely in the dark. Consequently, I had to learnabout traditional "church" before I could even begin tounderstand why God would need to do "something new."

    Do I know NOW what the new thing is? No, I can't say forcertain. However, there is one thing I was shown before Ieven owned or worked on a computer, so that has to be in

    the early 90's. I was shown a 12 mile highway, ---fromSelkirk to Albany NY---with people standing single filed atarm's length. As I flew over that line on the highway, mytravel companion spoke:

    "Pam, you see that line down there? "Uh,huh, I responded.He then declared, you are going to minister to everyone othose people from that house over there, to the east."

    At the time of the dream, I was living westward of thathighway. I remember waking and thinking to myself, "howam I going to get ALL of those people into that little house?

    Several years later (by then living EAST of that highway),sitting in front of my monitor while ministering "on line," ----colloquially named "the super internet highway" called theworld wide web, the Spirit spoke again and whispered,"Remember your dream of the highway? Well you areministering "on line" right now!!!"

    So that is what I know, folk! THE LORD'S NEW THINGINVOLVES THE INTERNET!

    There is ONE other thing that I received. I saw in a dreamthat the Lord is going to bring down the word of faith,charismatic movement. Five years ago, I saw that ONE ofthe mega preachers would be publicly exposed, whichwould usher in a flood of exposures of the rest of them. Theprosperity message was at the center of the fall. It iscoming down!!!

    The mega preacher involved was NOT Eddie Long. It was

  • 8/7/2019 UNIVERSALISM AND SALVATION

    4/13

    Creflo Dollar. I understand that Eddie Long is doing thewise thing. Rather than go to trial for sexual misconduct, heis going through a settlement called "mediation." He will nothave to admit guilt, but eventually the alleged victims willreceive monetary compensation and Long will be able tohold on to his religious empire.

    Perhaps Creflo was only symbolic of the entire group ofthem. I don't know. All I know is that the man in my dreamwas Creflo Dollar and not Eddie Long. I saw Creflo broughtto poverty with keeloids---big sores--- all over his head. Hewas standing in an elevator in a ghetto project---feet in apuddle of urine--- trying to drum up a little choir, lookinglike he was homeless, with a cheap, tattered and wrinkledsuit on.

    In any event, what I was shown five years ago is verysimilar to the contents of the newsletter called "God'sBig Payback or Aflockalypse." The Almighty will expose

    ALL false doctrine by causing EVERYTHING to backfire. Forexample, when hands are laid on people for healing, thepeople will get sicker and die. When deliverance workers tryto cast out demons, they themselves will become"demonized." Those who believe that by "sowing theirhard earned dollars into the ministries of prosperitypreachers, will receive the curse of poverty and not thefinancial increase they are expecting. As a divinemockery of false gods, poverty will be released so as tocause some eyes to open and realize that they have beenscammed, bambuzzled, run a muck----fleeced by falseprophets, and they will run for cover, as sheep without apastor. Lord, have mercy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    PAM'S BOOK CORNER

    An Excerpt from "THE FAKE JESUS: FALLEN ANGELS AMONG US"

    PROTESTANTISM

    My suspicion that the age of the organized churchis either over or very close to ending has been growing overtime. One crucial, yet potentially damnable sign of the endof the gentile age is mounting evidence that souls are not

    being saved in the organized church. What is reallytroublesome is that I am finding that even the best churchescan be hazardous, primarily because subtle deception isactually held in place by the sincerity and the commitmentof its leadership. To be sincerely wrong can be almost asdeadly as being obviously deceived or purposefully

    deceptive.

    From my own vantage point from a deliveranceperspective, I have been put in contact with severaldemonized churchgoers around the country and even theworld. As such, there is one major sign thatsuggests that the church age may be coming to a close.I am willing to bet that some of you are guessing that themost outstanding sign of the demise of the Protestantchurch is either dying churches, sinning preachers, theprosperity gospel or even false prophets. These arecertainly signs that "Satan has a seat". But the mostoutstanding sign is that Satan may be standing behind the

    pulpit because one of his cosmic beings, Sananda, haspaved the way for him.

    Consider this. The main reason why the church wascommissioned in the first place was to preach a gospel thatthe Holy Spirit could use to draw the elect to the cross ofJesus Christ of Nazareth. Yet for 200 years or more, thegospel has been tainted with an insidious error that no oneseems to be able to correct and most ministers are totallyunaware of it. In a nutshell, the main error is that the peopleare being taught worldwide that "God will save them oncethey make a decision to choose Jesus Christ of Nazareth.---ie.that the ability to be saved lies in man's hands."

    Such a teaching borders on blasphemy because ifman is saved by "accepting Jesus," then the decision is awork of man and not a gift from God according to grace,"lest any man should boast and declare "I am savedbecause I ACCEPTED JESUS! Whether denominational ornon-denominational, pentecostal or Charismatic, practicallythe entire Protestant church upholds the "free will" decisionapproach to salvation. Do you yourself believe that you canor could be saved anytime that YOU wanted to? Do youbelieve that you are NOW saved simply because youresponded to an altar call and/ or you repeated a

    sinner's prayer where you "asked Jesus to come into yourheart?" If you can answer in the affirmative, then you havebeen deceived and therein, defiled! You are in jeopardy onjudgment day when the Lord looks at you and declares,"INEVER KNEW YOU!!"

    Alarmingly, what is being preached in practicallyALL of the Protestant churches is that through apersonal decision--the volition and choice of human will---

  • 8/7/2019 UNIVERSALISM AND SALVATION

    6/13

    6

    the lost can ACCEPT Christ to be saved. This is atenet that has so strongly grieved the Holy Ghost, that it isreasonable to wonder if He has leftProtestantism entirely. As previously mentioned, started bya preacher called Charles Finney about 200 years ago, thisfoundational error has pervasively spread like

    yeast throughout every corner of the Protestant church.Even the most renowned evangelist of our time, BillyGraham has also preached the " make a decision" doctrineof salvation to millions upon millions.

    Moreover, the church practices of the invitation toChristian discipleship through an altar call and the repeatingof "the sinner's prayer" are the main anchors that hold thefoundation of the "free will method" in place in its attempt toconvince the lost that they must be saved by "choosingChrist" before it is too late. Some will even preach thedoctrine of hell as a scare tactic to browbeat a "decision forChrist." The essential root of the problem is that when a

    person sits in church, in a huge stadium, watches a TVevangelist, or even "is led to Christ" by another professingChristian, the lost are being taught that they can ACCEPTJesus into their own hearts and salvation is automaticallytheirs for the asking.

    Interestingly enough, no where in the word of God isit written that "we accept Christ into our hearts." Paul wroteto the Romans that we "believe in our hearts that Christ wasraised from the dead." However, Paul did not write that wemust "accept Jesus into our hearts." When we are bornagain, Jesus does not "enter our hearts." How can He enterour hearts when He is at the right hand of the Father???This is why the Lord told His disciples that it was better forthem that He go away so that the Holy Ghost would come.The Holy Ghost is that part of the godhead who enters ourspirits, causing us to become "temples of God." The heartand the spirit are two distinctively different entities in man.Similarly, like the words "rapture" and "purgatory",thephrase "accept Jesus"is yet another religious euphemism,not backed up by scripture.

    Furthermore, the message of "I accepted Christ" isso preposterous that it is an offense to the triuneGodhead. We DO NOT ACCEPT CHRIST. NO ONE CAN BE

    SAVED UNLESS GOD HIMSELF HAS ALREADY MADE THECHOICE!!!! The Father and the Son have already done thechoosing or the electing before the beginning of recordedtime. When the sinner actually hears the call, he simplyresponds. Even when a sinner cries out for Jesus, it mayappear to be an act of his own free will, yet the Lord saidthat no man can come to Him unless the Father which sentHim draws them. (John 6:44)

    Subsequently, even when a sinner begs theLord for mercy to save him, he does so because he hasbeen drawn to the cross by the Holy Ghost. Therefore, evenour repentance is not human but godly. Godly sorrow isa repentance for sin that has been divinely given to thesinner to cause him to repent, to sorrow over the

    Lord's sacrifice. At the cross, a sinner's spirit is washed,cleansed and forgiven by the blood of Jesus Christ ofNazareth.

    It is important to state here that nothing stops God,not even the church. When the Lord is ready for the elect, Hecalls them. If they are sitting on a church pew, He can stillreach them, regardless of what they have been listeningto. The problem is that many of the elect who are in churchbelieve that they are already saved but they are not. TheFather plans to save them. Nevertheless, for the Holy Ghostto draw them to a genuine salvation experience, the strongman must be bound with the light of truth. In this instance,

    the "strong man" is the religious demon, aka,the FakeJesus.

    In the beginning or our work in deliverancecounseling , we were shocked and horrified at themanifestations that emanated from professing Christians.To hear even tongue talkers be used by demons to roar,growl and shout blasphemies that include 4 letter words isso astounding, that it can be rather "disconcerting" to saythe least. What we have found is that religious demons arenow dwelling in the human spirit of professing Christians,the place which is intended for the Holy Ghost. I have alsolearned that these demons must be cast out first, beforethe Holy Ghost will enter.

    This is a formidable task because religiosity hasbecome "a high tower" in the lives of the lost who insist thatthey are saved. This high tower must be pulled down bytruth, brick by brick. Simply put ,to reach a churchgoer whobelieves that he is saved because he repeated asinner's prayer and accepted Jesus "into his heart" is liketrying to put a camel through the eye of a needle. But as theLord declared, "what is impossible for men is possible withGod." I marvel at what the Lord is doing.

    Grieved and quenched, it has been my experiencethat the Holy Ghost will not move either the called or thechosen by the "free will" method because the gospel hasnot been properly preached. Since faith comes by hearingthe gospel, we need to understand "what the gospel is." Thegospel is plain and simple yet very rarely heard in what iscommonly known as "a sermon." In fact, most sermonsheard in churches today are "not the gospel of Jesus

    8/13

    Christ." They may be interesting, inspiring, enthusiastic,joyous, dramatic, charismatic and even life changing relativeto coping with the natural challenges and circumstancesof life. Yet, unless the gospel of the kingdom is preached inevery sermon, the Holy Ghost will not draw anyone to thecross and without the cross, no one will be saved. You may

    cry, shout, jump up and even fall on your face yet withoutthe complete truth, there will be no fruit that leadsto eternal life.

    In truth, Protestant preachers of all persuasionshave been using sermons to convict and to convince,sometimes through coercion. As such, some haveattempted to do a job that is only meant for the Holy Ghost.No, our job is simple. We are merely to "tell the story" andthe Holy Ghost uses our "story telling" of thegospel by convicting and convincing the lost Himself.Essential to the story we tell,---whether it be in a sermon, aconversation, a letter, or a personal testimony---we must

    "preach the gospel of Jesus Christ." Certainly, thegospel of Jesus Christ is routinely repeated on Sundayswithin various denominational affirmations of faith: Jesuswas born, crucified, buried, rose to life in His own physicalbody on the third day, ascended and He's coming back.

    In a nutshell, THIS IS THE GOSPEL---plain and simple.Yet preachers never seem to run out of subjects fora Sunday morning sermon. For example, if they preachabout faith, ie. what it is, what it does, how to get it, etc.,unless the message on faith is directly connected to Hiscrucifixion, His resurrection, His ascension and His return,the Holy Ghost will not use a great "faith" sermon to savenot one soul. Even though hell is real, a sermon that tries tocoerce a commitment to Christ out of a fear of going to hellwill not bare fruit either.

    So what are the essential ingredients to a bonafideconversion? Well, a crucial aspect of the gospel is that weare all dead in our trespasses and sins. So I ask you, "Howcan a dead man save himself?" He can't. A dead manneeds to be resurrected. As Jesus raised Lazarus from thedead in the natural, He did not raise Himself from the deadbecause "He was dead." The bible tells us that Jesus was

    raised by the glory of the Father. In another scripture itreads that Jesus was raised by the power of the HolyGhost. Therefore, it logically follows that "the glory of theFather is the Holy Ghost. If a equals b and c equals b, then aalso equals c. Simple.

    As Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead in the natural,and as the Holy Ghost raised Jesus from the dead in thenatural, we cannot raise ourselves from the dead in spirit by

  • 8/7/2019 UNIVERSALISM AND SALVATION

    9/13

    9

    making a "decision" or by repeating words. How does adead man in the natural make a decision when he can't evenblink an eyelash? Dead is dead. Death cannot raise itself tolife. No, only the Holy Ghost can raise US from beingdead in the spirit to eternal life. Jesus said that the HolyGhost would save us "like the wind." When the wind blows,

    it takes us by surprise. Then we see the results of the windby what has been left behind. When the Holy Ghost blows,someone is going to be "born again." (John 3) The sign thatthe Holy Ghost may have left the organized church is that"the wind is not blowing there."

    When we confess the Lord Jesus with our mouths, thewind has "already blown"on us and we have already been"raised from the dead" in the spirit. Repeated in anotherway, when we confess that we believe that Jesus was raisedfrom the dead, the Holy Ghost has already given us ameasure of faith to believe that a dead man lives again.Moreover, Jesus said that no man can come to Him unless

    the Father Who sent Him draws them. The Fatherdraws the elect to Christ by the Holy Ghost. Repentance,conviction of sin, coming to the cross and believing on theresurrection is the sole wrk of the Holy Ghost as Hetranslates the dead in sin into newness of eternal life.

    Therefore, the Holy Ghost does the entire job of callingthe lost whom God has chosen from the beginning of time tobe His elect." All we are required to do is PREACH THEGOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST! WE DON'T LEAD ANYONE TOCHRIST. The fact that the organized church has stood in theplace of the Holy Ghost, attempted to do what only He cando, is a sign that the Holy Ghost is NOT pleased. Has Hebeen blasphemed? I tremble at the thought. When Heis blasphemed, then we will see with our own eyes, yetanother sign, the Abomination of Desolation.

    So think about it. When have you really heard the gospelpreached?--- Jesus Christ as crucified, dead, buried,resurrected, ascended and "comin back." Most people whoare sitting on a pew every week do not even understand thebodily resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ, as they believethat He was raised merely as a spirit, in spite of the fact thatthe scriptures tell us that after Jesus was raised, He cooked,He ate and He told Thomas to touch Him, just to prove to the

    doubter that He was alive in His flesh and bone body.

    The confusion comes in the interpretation of a versein the 15th chapter of First Corinthians where Paul referredto being raised "a spiritual" body. Paul did not intend tosuggest that Jesus was raised as a spirit only. No, a spiritualbody is actually a physical body that has been glorified. Aglorified or "spiritual body" is not a spirit alone withoutsubstance. A glorified body is a material, physical body that

  • 8/7/2019 UNIVERSALISM AND SALVATION

    10/13

    10

    have been changed to immortality, incapable of dying APHYSICAL DEATH AGAIN. Once again, a spiritual body isnot "a spirit" or a ghost.

    Moreover, the lack of understanding of theresurrection among both traditional and particularly

    charismatic church goers is a sign that the church has failedprimarily because of the lack of preaching and teachingconcerning the bodily resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christof Nazareth. Pastors world wide assume that all of theirmembers understand the resurrection. And as quiet as itskept, there are untold preachers who don't understand theresurrection either. As is the crucifixion, the resurrection isparamount to salvation. Paul told the Corinthians that if theydid not believe on the bodily resurrection of the Lord JesusChrist, their faith was vain. Not only that but Paul warned,"you are STILL in your sins." In other words, if you don'tbelieve on the resurrection in the correct way, you are NOTSAVED.

    I use a simple screening test that in deliverance counselingwherein we ask the client to explain the resurrection. If theyare unable to explain the expression "He rose from thedead," then they are obviously NOT saved. So ask yourselffrom your own experience, "Is the gospel being preached onSunday mornings?" Rarely, during the Lenten season andrarely on Easter Sunday, and that is IT!!!

    In order for people to be saved, they need to hearmessages that focus on sin, being lost, repentance, thecross, the blood, the resurrection, and the Lord'sreturn. This is the gospel, plain and simple. The Holy Ghosthas been grieved a long time because He cannot use faultypreaching in either lofty, scholarly exhortation or a downhome "earthy" sermon to draw anyone to Jesus Christ. In anutshell, with what is being preached from the pulpits on aSunday morning, there is insufficient saving power in thetypical sermon. The Holy Ghost will not draw anyone toChrist with what is being preached. So we believe that thiscircumstance is a significant sign that He may have

    already left the premises. Ichabod!

    Sinning preachers can repent. False prophets can beexposed. False doctrine can be corrected. But how doesthe organized church fix an error that is actually built intothe language of the system, words that are heard comingfrom the mouths of practically EVERY professingChristian who proudly boasts, "I accepted Christ." It baresrepeating. No one accepts Christ to be saved. He has

  • 8/7/2019 UNIVERSALISM AND SALVATION

    11/13

    11

    already accepted us from the beginning of time and not theother way around. When every one of the elect is saved, theworld as we know it "will be toast." Why? Because the trueJesus will return and literally TAKE OVER!!!!

    So consider this. If our salvation was anchored solely

    in a decision of our willpower, wouldn't salvation beobtained by the works of our own flesh and not by the graceof God? We would be able to boast, "I made the decision toaccept Jesus Christ. It bares repeating once again that theelect were chosen in Jesus Christ before Adam and Evewere even created. We cannot even repent to be savedwithout the help of the Holy Ghost. The faith to believe onJesus Christ is not even ours. The Holy Ghost even gives usthe faith to believe on the Lord's resurrection. When weconfess that Jesus is Lord, we have already been saved, orelse we would not be able to utter those words.

    I could back up these words with many scriptures.

    Even though the scriptures suggest that the organizedchurch will continue to exist and operate until the Lord'sreturn, we suspect that few souls will be saved at its altarsbecause there are signs that the Holy Ghost has alreadyvacated the sanctuary and the organized church mayhave recently been judged or will be judged very soon. Oncethe Holy Ghost has left the organized church, then localchurches and denominations will becomeincreasingly defiled and eventually, fully apostate, as ittransforms into Mystery Babylon.

    In truth, I hope that I am wrong. However, one man,Charles Finney, has led to the greatest falling away thatprobably Paul himself did not even imagine it. So if souls arenot being saved in either the Catholic or the Protestantchurches, then the organized church has lost its usefulness.The make a decision, I accepted Jesus gospel is sopermeated within church tradition, that it seems that theorganized church is incapable of fixing a problem that hasbeen built deep into its foundation for about 200 years. Infact, most of the church is not even aware of this essentialproblem. So the enemy has had his seat in it for quite sometime.

    The scriptures point to a Satanic "take over" of the

    organized church through the clever work of one of his bestsoldiers, the religious demon, the spirit of the Anti-Christaka, Jesus Sananda Immanuel, aka "The Fake Jesus.". Whenthis occurs, we will experience "the abomination ofdesolation" and we must stand in the holy place. Where isthe holy place? Is the holy place in Jerusalem, the Rock ofthe Dome as some "endtime specialists" contend? If so,how could we "stand in the holy place?" There are notenough planes to fly every Christian there.

  • 8/7/2019 UNIVERSALISM AND SALVATION

    12/13

    12

    So where is "the holy place?" Well I suggest toyou that it is wherever you can find the Holy Ghost!!!! If mysuspicions are correct and the Holy Ghost has alreadymoved out of the church, then He is saving folk outside ofchurch walls. He has certainly not stopped His work---He

    has merely changed His location. The Holy Ghost is fallingon people in the streets, at home, on the job, at the club, onthe bus, you name it, He's there. And the lost will findthemselves at the feet of the cross and not be able to evenexplain "how they got there!"

    One clear, illustrative sign out of several, I recentlyreceived a testimony from a woman who sat in a Baptistchurch for more than 20 years, going through the circle offalling away and rededicating herself to Christ, over andover again.--baptized more than once. She herself admittedthat in 20 years of church attendance, she now realizes thatshe was duped into believing that she was saved, based

    upon what ultimately did occur. While on vacation a yearago in an airplane, this churchgoing woman was headed forLos Vegas to gamble no less. While 35,000 feet in theair, the Holy Ghost "breathed" on her. That's right. Shegot saved on the airplane.. In a split second, she gotconvicted of sin and new life entered into her. No longer agambler since that eventful day, she knows without a doubtthat she is now SAVED. She herself had nothing to do withit. Nor did her church. It was ALL the Holy Ghost. He couldhave saved her in church, but He didn't. Not for 20 years.Hear my serious warning:

    If I were not a "front line warrior,"driven out of the comfort zone ofthe organized church, I too would be asignorant of Satan's devices asanyone else. Simply put, myimpressions are based on one solidfact that I experience through my daily

    contacts on the web and throughtelephone counseling. The bottomline is that people are just not gettingsaved in church---no matter thesize, the denomination, the non-denomination, even the country, people

    are not getting saved inchurch. And I am counseling andpraying with people who have satunder the ministries of well known, tvmega preachers.

    Believe me, the size of the altar callresponse DOES NOT MATTER. Noone is being saved by motivational,

  • 8/7/2019 UNIVERSALISM AND SALVATION

    13/13

    13

    inspirational preaching, or by theprosperity gospel. As Jesus warned,what does it profit a man to gain thewhole world, yet lose his own soul?Heed the words of the Lord JesusChrist, Come Out of Her My People

    lest you receive of her plagues.!

    Note: This excerpt was written in 2008. BACK THEN, I was notcompletely convinced that ALL the churches were affected.However, in 3 years, I've come to realize that the fake Jesus, a fallenangel, has replaced Jesus Christ of Nazareth in EVERY ORGANIZEDCHURCH.
