Its Supernatural

Life After Death

Sid:  Now you don’t have to go to Heaven or experience Hell to be red hot for the Messiah, but I’ll tell you the truth it would help for a lot of you to experience the reality of Hell, and the reality of Heaven.  I can tell you as a fact that although I have never experienced the reality of Hell; I have never experienced the reality of Heaven it’s as real to me as if I have.
Why?  Because I have intimacy with God through Jesus, but I believe God has raised up witnesses in our day that for His purposes many have died from a medical viewpoint, gone to Heaven and have been sent back to tell what Heaven is like.  And many have experienced Hell, I have put together the ten best stories that I have had over the years of experiences in Heaven and in Hell, nine different people and I decided you better listen to this excerpt.

Well, we hear lots of shows about heaven, lots of shows about angels, lots of shows about healing, lots healing, lots of shows about deliverance but what about Hell, whatever happened to Hell?  Well, we don’t talk a whole lot about Hell, it’s not the right thing socially correct to do in most circles, but I believe if you had the experience that my guest had you would not be lukewarm anymore, let’s go to the interview with Bill Wiese.

On November 23, 1998 you went to a prayer meeting obviously, figures and it’s like 3:00 in the morning or so, and what happened?

Bill:  Alright we came home from the prayer meeting the night of the 22nd and at 3:00 in the morning the Lord picked me up and dropped me off in a prison cell in Hell, I found myself in a prison cell with stone walls and bars just like you would image in a cell.  And I didn’t realize where I was at that moment but I noticed immediately the heat was incredible heat and I should have been incinerated and died right away, but I was still living through this heat.  I looked and I noticed that there were these two creatures in the cell, they were reptilish in appearance, huge about 12 or 13 feet tall, large jaw, big teeth, huge claws and they were pacing like a caged bull in this cell. They were talking amongst each other, blaspheming God and cursing God.

Sid:  Now you told me that Jesus had told you later then that He took all memory that you were a Christian so you went to experience what it was like as a non-Christian in Hell.

Bill:  He withheld it from my mind that I was a Christian and explained it on the way back, but also so I was there as a unsaved person would be just like someone that had not accepted the Lord.  So when I saw these creatures I didn’t realize immediately that they were demons, but that’s what they were; fallen angels or demons.  And they had hatred for God and for myself and they immediately directed their hatred toward me and picked me up threw me against into the wall. I felt my bones break and the other one picked me up and shredded my flesh with his claw, just tore up my flesh.  And you know my wife and I like to work out and take care of ourselves and eat right and now none of that mattered the body was just being destroyed.

Sid:    You know what kind of pain were you feeling when this was going on?

Bill:  I felt pain, I felt quite bit of the pain, but again on the way back the Lord explained that He withheld a lot of the pain from me so that I wouldn’t have to experience full brunt of it, but enough of it to let people know there is literal pain felt in Hell.  You will feel pain and the heat and the torments are tremendous in Hell.

Sid:  Now, could you hear anything going on.

Bill:  The screams were deafening overwhelming screams it was terrible to even endure that, but you couldn’t escape it was so loud it was piercing. So that was one of the things.

Sid:  So, it’s got to be almost like say a Vietnam Veteran that remembers those things; it’s something you could never forget those screams.

Bill:  No, you’ll never forget them, I know I won’t. I managed to move I noticed I had no strength in my body at all, you have no strength in Hell so I managed to somehow crawl, that’s as much energy that I could get to make a move and apparently they let me, I crawled out of the cell and one direction it’s completely pitch black.  A darkness that was beyond any darkness that you could feel here on earth; and it as a darkness that you could feel, like it talks about in Exodus in 10:21. I looked the other direction and there was flames of fire leaping high into the sky, it was off in the distance, I knew that it was about 10 miles away this huge raging pit of fire.  And it  light up the sky line just enough to see the desolate barren wasteland, nothing green, no life of any kind, just all barren and desolate.  So at that point I was drugged back into the cell by the demons and more torments. After that I was picked up and taken out of that cell and placed over near the pit of fire and it was enormous about a mile across ragging fames. I could see the outlines of people in this fire screaming, they were being burned in the fire and torment.  I didn’t want to go in there it was already hot enough, but I knew that I just didn’t want to go into the flames.  That’s a terrible thing to have to suffer and these people were burning.  There were demons all around this cell pushing the people back in it if they tried to claw their way out.  They really couldn’t get out anyway, but the demons were just there shoving them back in.  I felt so awful for the people, but also for myself.

Sid:  Has that thought ever crossed your mind what it would have been like to be there for all of eternity?

Bill:   I just can’t imagine, I mean when I was there I did imagine it and it was horrible to live with that thought to never get out, and I just felt so bad for the people.  But He allowed me to feel a little bit of His heart what He feels for the people and He wept over people going into Hell, He doesn’t want one person to go there it hurt Him so much that the amount He allowed me to feel I couldn’t stand it.

Sid:  As many of you know I was raised in a traditional Jewish home. When I was young my earliest recollections are my parents being away and me being home alone at night and being very afraid. One day a thought popped in my mind, and the thought was “What happens when you die?” I began to speculate “What happens when someone dies?”  Because in Judaism it’s l’Chaiyim a language of life, but although we believe in life after death we don’t talk about it so what a young kid to conclude?  I concluded since we didn’t talk about it the answer to the question “What happens when you die?” Is you cease to exist.  Well then I started to ponder, what would life be like if I ceased to exist, whatever was me, the real me was going to be snuffed out and it was such an objectionable thought I blocked it, I stopped thinking about it until many years later and I reached appoint where life was too hard.  And I really I didn’t want to live like that anymore. Some Christians in the first time in my life had told me that I could know intimately, I could have intimacy with the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.  And they told me a prayer to pray, and the worse night of my life I had prayed the prayer the day before I didn’t feel anything but you know we get fooled by feelings.  Something happened, God heard my prayer and the next night when I went to bed I was so fearful I was so fearful of life that I didn’t care if I ceased to exist and I yelled out a two word prayer, I said, “Jesus, help.”  And I went to bed and when I woke up the next morning I was filled with such Shalom. Now many people that say this prayer do experience the presence of God and feelings.  Many that say this prayer like myself when I said it the first time, didn’t experience anything. Whether you experience anything or not you have got the attention of the creator of the Universe and a change will occur in your life if you just say this prayer out loud and mean it to the best of your ability.  Dear God, I have sinned and I am so sorry. With Your help I turn from my sins, please forgive me, in Yeshua’s Name.  I believe that Yeshua died, rose from the dead, and is at the right hand of God, now that I’m clean I make Yeshua my Lord, and ask Him to live inside of me.  Amen.

Our Guest James Goll

Sid:  I’ve been blowing my brand new shofar that I got from Israel; I haven’t been blowing it enough but it’s still working praise God I was so excited the last time I blew it on the air because I wasn’t sure anything would come out.  My guest this week is Jim Goll, we’ve had him on the air several times, but he has a new book that is a must mentoring it is a must mentoring tool it’s called “Dream Language.”  Did you know that God speaks to us in a personal language based on speaking to us individuals and our experiences that might be different from someone else, but God wants to speak to us in dreams and visions and supernatural wisdom.  And this is a handbook that is a requirement if you really and truly want to hear from God and be obedient in the days that we’re living in.  And I want to start out with a scripture, it’s from Joel the 2nd chapter and it’s quoted in the Book of Act’s, but before it’s quoted there is some interesting scripture in Joel chapter 2 verse 23.  “For he has given you the former rain faithfully and he will cause the rain to come down for you; the former rain and the latter rain in the first month.”  And of course Peter quotes this at Pentecost, that’s Shavuot, but that wasn’t the end that was just the beginning.  And I don’t know that we have had the former rain and latter rain coming down at once but he says that when this gusher hits this is what we’re going to see in verse 28.  “And it shall come to pass afterward that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh.”  I’m glad it says all, but then it specifically says “Your sons,” by the way speaking to Jewish people, physical Jews, “Your sons and your daughters shall prophecy; you’re old men shall dream dreams; your young men shall see visions.  And also on my men servants and on my maid servants, and in other words on every one; “I will pour out My Spirit in those days;” And I believe James Goll we’re in those days and I believe that too few believers understand their dreams and visions and as a result as you talk about in your book the dreams are snatched from them. Its supernatural with Sid Roth ministry

James:  Yeah, right I call it you know there’s dream drainers and dream snatchers, but we can be dream catchers because the word of God says so.  Just as you’re reading to us from the book of Joel and it’s from the book of Acts; God is the one who told us, He prophesied to us “That in the last days,” those days that we’re living in right now. “That He will pour forth His Spirit upon all flesh.”  And that’s old, that’s young, that’s men, that’s women, that’s boy, that’s girl, that’s whether you’re living in free countries or living in closed countries.  He will pour forth His Spirit on all flesh and He will do it in such a manner that He’ll put the Spirit of Revelation on us. A couple of the forms that takes is dreams and visions.  So already you who are out there listening I want you to know that you should expect to receive from God in the night seasons while you simply go to sleep.  The book of Proverbs says “God” and Psalm’s says “God will give to his beloved even in their sleep.”  And so hey guys this is just absolutely outrageous!  This is about a God who will overwhelm us out of His love and He will hotly pursue us and put the Spirit of Revelation upon us and give us dreams.  Dreams to instruct us, dreams to build up our faith, dreams to enlighten us, dreams to give us maybe witty inventions; I tell you this is an outrageous day we live in and God is pouring out His Spirit on all flesh.

Sid:  By the way, I recently was in Israel and do you know they’re leading the world in computer technology, and all types of types of technology.  I would think that if God doesn’t give you a dream or vision of a witty invention, just invest in an Israeli company, it will be just as profitable.

James:  That’s really great I agree with you; I tell you we need to wise up in how we use our money; how we use our time; how we invest ourselves.  And I tell you God is giving breakthrough technologies in the medical.  God’s giving breakthrough technologies into the energy issues, and He has breakthrough revelation to give to your life to help solve difficult problems.  Do you know that when Solomon got his whole realm of like the wisdom poured out upon his life it was that God came to him in a dream, and in a dream God asked him a question of what is it do you want?  And it was in the dream, an interactive dream, can you imagine that an interactive dream and He asked for wisdom.  And I tell you because he asked for wisdom God said, “I’ll give you everything.”  I tell you God wants to come and invade our space. He wants to give us revelation, illumination and inspiration for the sphere’s of authority that we each have.

Sid:  You know one of the things I love is you have written a prayer in your book that is a Hebrew prayer that you’re supposed to say before you go to sleep; tell me about that. Sid Roth supernatural 2012

James:  Yeah, you know as I was preparing for this and I had read three different times the over 300 scriptures in the Bible on dreams.  You see this is just not a sidelight issue, this is one of the major communication tools of God in scripture.  And if Jesus is the same; Yeshua the same yesterday and forever as the book of Hebrews we should expect the same kind of activity today as we did in the Bible.  And I was given a lost just great insight and part of this deals with prayers to lift up before the Lord before you go to sleep.  And I got some this from Jewish dream practices and Jewish bedtime prayers, and it’s actually just awesome.  And in it you’re saying “Blessed are You our God gracious One, Keeper of the world, Who makes my eyes sleepy and causes my eyelids to close.  God of those who came before me, (See now that’s import, there’s your reciting History), and your saying, “Oh God of Daniel, oh God of Abraham; God of Moses; God of Esther you who have led them by the Spirit of Revelation in the past lead us again, God of those that came before me.  Help me to lie down peacefully and rise up peacefully.  While I sleep, may I not be disturbed by troubling ideas, bad dreams, or scary thoughts that come to me in the night.  May my sleep bring both rest and insight.  Blessed are You, God for illuminating the whole world in glorious ways.”  And then there’s another prayer and in it you’re asking for God to release His angels to come to you to release the Spirit of revelation upon your life.  And I tell you if God did it before He will and is doing it again.

Sid:  Well, are you find that people start praying that prayer before they go to bed they have  better sleep, and they have better insight from God in their dreams and in their visions?

James:  Oh absolutely, you see the Kingdom of God is righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit the Book of Roman’s says.  And so if we pray very simple prayers before we go to asleep our state of our inner being will be more calm, will be more in alignment with the Kingdom of God.

Sid:  What if we do the reverse; we watch television and we watch a blood and guts war movie, does that really upset our spirit to the point that it affects our dreams?

James:  It can, it doesn’t always but it can.  See our eye is it’s called the eye gate and what we behold we in a sense become.  The book of proverbs says “What so ever you think” you see, “As a man thinks so he will he be.”  So what we meditate on what we dwell upon, what we think or even look upon affects our thought processes and if those aren’t calmed or cleansed before we go to asleep then you will end up having what you call it will be more of a soulish dream or a body dream versus an inspired Holy Spirit dream.  And so we do need to be careful; you know there’s a la la song, you know I grew up in church so “You be careful little eyes what you see,” you know.

Sid:  No, because I grew up in the synagogue but go ahead. [Laughing]

James:  Yeah, but you see you got to be careful what you see, what you listen to and where you go.  Now but the real key is just get lost in the blood of Yeshua, get cleansed in the blood of Jesus before you go to sleep.  Pray invoke the Kingdom of God upon your thoughts, upon your mind, upon your soul and then you will be inviting the King to rule over this area.  And I tell you it is just awesome, there are times that see, I want people to understand something though I’m known as the seer and dream language and angelic encounters and these realms; I didn’t start out this way and some have.  But I didn’t and I prayed the scripture over my life and I saw how God spoke to Daniel, and how he spoke to Joseph, and how He spoke to different ones in the Bible and I just flat out just said, “Lord, if you did it for them You can do it for me.”  And I just kept praying the word of God for the Spirit of wisdom and revelation to be grated to me, the book of Ephesians chapter one.  And as I did that I had a gradual increase of the Spirit of Revelation upon my life and the ability to retain.  Here’s part of the issue that you were touching you see, if you go to bed all stirred up, even if you get something from the Lord it’s harder to retain it and remember it.  But if you go to sleep in the place of Kingdom of God righteousness, peace, and joy not only is it easier to receive revelation, but it’s a whole easier to retain and then capture, release, recall, what the Lord has done in the sleep season.

Sid:  Now James we’re making your book available “Dream Language” briefly what kind of feedback are you getting on this book?

James:  You know there is an impartation that is on this book, and as you read this you will go on a journey with me that it won’t just be with me; you will go on a journey with the Holy Spirit.

Our Guest David Herzog

Sid:  As I’m sharing this I’m interviewing my good friend David Herzog. The anointing is so strong on him, and I mean I pick up people’s anointing when I interview them that I’m literally hearing words of knowledge of people being healed David as I’m doing my standard introduction, which makes it really difficult.  But what I heard is that anything that you need from the neck up in your head area, sinus problems, allergies, deafness, blindness, migraines, anything you need in the head, the neck healed it is yours.  David just before we went on the air we were talking about some of the miracles that you’re seeing in Asia and this is almost hard to comprehend, you saw more miracles in the first trip to Asia in perhaps years of ministry.  Tell me some of the things that you saw.

David:  Yeah, we were just amazed we got to Singapore and the very first night the first few miracles blind eyes opened up, deaf ears opened up and paralytic began to walk, tumors disappearing, just all kinds of stuff begun to happen.  And then we moved to Indonesia and it continued on in Jakarta, there were about 3,000 people and three people looked like zombies walking towards me I thought that they were demon possessed so I asked the translator “Who are these people coming toward me?”  And he said, “Don’t worry these are paralyzed people they walk funny.” So they started walking, and those were their wheelchairs and they started walking up onto the stage from their wheelchair and I said, “Wow, that’s great then bring them up.”  Just a lot of creative miracles begin to happen; the guy testicles were recreated supernatural in the meeting.

Sid:  Well, you’ve had this happen to body parts you were telling me about another meeting where thyroids were recreated.

David:  Yeah, that just happened a few days a later it just happened in Maui last week.

Sid:  Tell me about that.

David:  Yeah in Hawaii in Pukalani, they believe that is where the heavens are thinnest, that’s what the Hawaiians’ believe there is like a glory there.  And this girl came and she had her thyroid pretty much, most of it cut out by the doctors and it grew back supernaturally. She began crying and weeping she could feel it anyone could feel it and the thyroid is back.  So a lot of creative miracles are going to happen; we always see it but it just seems to be especially 2008 there is an acceleration of the frequency of those miracles.  Where instead of seeing a few every night you might see many more in one weekend of meetings.

Sid:  You told me a strange thing that happened with a man that was bald his hair grew back, but it was a different color?

David:  Yeah a guy, he wanted, actually there is two different stories, but this one his hair was white and he said, “Lord I want my new hair color.”  And I said, “Lord restore peoples’ hair colors back to the original hair color, youth renewed like the eagles.”  But he said, “No Lord, I want a different hair color, instead of black I would like brown.”  And in the meetings the first time that I had ever seen this, I’ve seen people’s hair colors change, but not to a different color than an original, it went from white to brown, his original color was black.

Sid:  Now one of the things that you’re known for teaching on is the glory, how did you first begin understand that when the glory shows up anything you believe and speak it happens.

David:  What happened when I was in a revival meeting in Paris it was a six month revival that broke out on Father’s Day, I was preaching the whole six months.  After that revival I began seeking the Lord for even a greater glory, He led me to the book of Genesis and He basically told me this is the blue print for all miracles, creative miracles.  So I began to read it and it was so simple, wow.  In the beginning the Holy Spirit or the presence or whatever you want to call it the glory hovered over the waters and then God spoke.  So if I can get the glory and the presence of God first before trying to get a good sermon before anything else Lord we need You, we need Your presence, we need Your glory without You we can do nothing.  Once that glory begins to come then I noticed how easy it was to simply wait on the Lord until you get a word of knowledge because Jesus said, “I do nothing but what I see or hear the Father do.”  So if you can hear or see God do something and simply speak it while the glory is present things are created instantly.  The old fashion way is just get into a meeting, get some good worship you know and just pull up people and lay hands on everybody and hope that some of them get healed.  And we can still do that but also I believe when you get in the glory realm and you wait on the Lord you can get more targeted pin pointed bull’s eye words of knowledge that hit and it’s exciting.

Sid:  You were also telling me last time we spoke on the telephone that this operates not just in physical healing when you are in the glory but actually and especially in the times that we’re living in operates in the financial arena, give me some examples.

David:  During Revival Week, we call it the Denver Outpouring it started June 29th there was a lady that came the first couple of weeks of revival and we had all kinds of healing and miracles.  A lady with no teeth on top, she pulled out her dentures and new teeth appeared.  But in those meetings you know we had offerings, people gave in that offering and I began to declare in the Name of Jesus that same power that’s causing physical miracles let it cause financial miracles.  And the next day a lady was in debt $60,000. Had a woman that she just met but maybe knew a little bit not that well came up to her and said, “I feel I’m suppose to give you $10,000”, and she ripped up the check and said, “no I’m supposed to pay all of your debts.  Add up all of your debts and let me know what they are”, and they were $60,000. She paid off the whole thing.

Sid:  Now is this just a fluke or does this really happen a lot?

David:  It’s happening a lot like every week, as often as there are miracles there are financial miracles.  So if you are seeing a lot of physical miracles in meetings simultaneously God is doing financial miracles. Another lady came, she is a young girl, well I say young, but she’s in her early twenties.  She bicycles to work, she has no car, barely pays her rent and she gave whatever she had in the offering while the miracles are moving, I mean she didn’t have much, it was like the widow’s mite she gave whatever she had.  I didn’t know that, in the meeting I said, “There is someone here that needs a car, stand up.”  She stood up and then I proceeded to say, “Does anyone want to give her a car?”  Well no one in that meeting gave her a car, but the next day a lady gave her a car, a person that she just met.  She barely knew the person gave her a car, and about two weeks later gave her a second car.  Now that was a month ago but I just came back from Denver last week and the Pastor told me, you don’t understand, someone just gave her $200,000 and a brand new house.  I mean she’s like totally, and she was super totally no car, barely getting to work, and she said too “She wanted to be blessed to be a blessing to help other people.”  So it’s amazing, especially those that are really really poor struggling barely making it.  It’s back in the Bible the widow with Elijah God can turn everything around very very quickly if we just obey His voice.

Sid:  David, I’ve been excited about your books in the past, but your latest book literally it’s seems as though we are interviewing  people where the book is just literally right off the press, we’re the first people to be offering these books.  But I’m very excited about your latest book it’s called “The Ancient Portals of Heaven.”  How did this book come into being?

David:  Well the Lord told me to write a book about the gateways into heaven.  Originally I was going to call it supernatural wisdom of the ancients basically it’s about what did the ancient peoples know that we lost?  The patterns of the supernatural, how did Elijah just get transported almost at will it seems?  How did Enoch get so close to God that he just was not?  How did these, you know what are these ancient patterns and pathways to the heavens that is supernatural to, what did the ancient Israelites know, and Solomon the wisest man on the earth. What do they know that maybe we lost in our modern day era?  So I go back and research this and it’s just amazing, amazing things that you find out how to retap back into the ancient paths.  The Bible says to follow the ancient paths, go back to the ancient ways.

Sid:  When you use the word portals of heaven explain what you mean by that.

David:  Yeah, basically gateways to heaven, just like I don’t know if you know this, but a lot of people know that in the demonic realm for instance which is only a copy of the real, they have witches, I’ve never been one so I’m not going by experience, but I know from talking with people that people have that they transport themselves.  Let’s say a witch wants to go from here to there they do that all the time there’s these demonic gridlines that connect in the demonic realm but Satan is only a copier.  In the Spirit realm it’s the same thing, there are pathways that open up the glory realm, there are seasons of time where things open up, there are geographical locations on the earth where there are like direct portals to heaven.  The Celtics’ used to say that the air would be thinner in some places on the earth than others, meaning there is like an open heaven.

Sid:  And when you can find a place like this what difference does it make in say your ministry?

David:  Oh yes, well when you are there if you are in a place where the heaven are already opened or it’s very easy to open you go there to pray and you hear from God, you get visitations and you get experiences from God that are life changing.  One experience from God or one visitation from God can alter the next twenty or thirty years of your life.

Sid:  Now some of these ancient portals have to do with not just the physical location and I’ve never seen this before but the minute I saw it I said, “Why haven’t I seen this before?”  It has to do with the Biblical festivals.  And over certain times, certain seasons are there portals to heaven.

David:  Exactly, well it says in the Bible also many times when there as a visitation I was in the Spirit of the Lord’s day, that’s a code for certain patterns and times where God promises to visit more than in other times.  Well, the feasts for instance there is the Passover feast, there is the Feast of Tabernacles, Succot, there’s Pentecost.  For instance we do our conferences in Sedona purposely during the feasts.  We do one at Esther’s feast at Purim, we did one at Passover and we do one at Pentecost and now we’re doing one at Succot.  And at Pentecost just to give you an example, and we live in Sedona which is known as a town supposed darkness and there is some New Age things over here. So it’s known as a hard town to open up and yet we did it during the feast, the glory came, the awesome praise and worship, we worship God and literally everybody in the room suddenly began to hear angels singing into the room suddenly began to hear angles singing into the room.  No one was playing keyboard, the keyboard player didn’t have his music on, and it was so supernatural the unsaved people from the hotel and waiters and the workers they ran in, they could hear the noise from far away. This very interesting angelic sound was coming out of somewhere and you just felt like your hair went up on the back of your head. So something opened up in the Spirit realm because we hit it during a feast time and God promised to visit during those feasts He said, “I’ll visit my people.”  And so a lot of people don’t realize that you don’t have to be Jewish to be His people.”   We’re all grafted in. If you’re not Jewish you’re grafted into the commonwealth of Israel so you’re also God’s people.  Anyone can tap in to these seasonal portals if they’re a believer.

Our Guest Steven Brooks

Sid:  We want everyone everywhere to receive the end time generation mantels that are being released, and ready to be released right now if not now what good they are going to be because we are in the last of the last days.  My guest Steven Brooks has just written a brand new book, the subject is the release of mantels to the end time generation.  Steven if they’re not going to be released now what good is it?

Steven:  I tell you Sid, you are right it’s time for these mantles, these anointing’s to fall upon the end-time church and I believe the Lord Jesus has timed it just right the double portion and even a greater anointing rest on the end-time church to do the works of the Lord Jesus.

Sid:  And you made an interesting point in your book that many of the mantles that people will be receiving they’re going to fulfill what perhaps the person that originally had the mantle did not fulfill.

Steven:  That is true Sid and you know we see interesting stories in the Bible you know there’s also the story of Elijah with Elisha how in the ministry of Elijah a person can also go through the Bible and count up the miracles that were done in his ministry, and you’ll see that Elijah there’s are eight miracles recorded in His ministry.  And then with Elisha you know he asked for the double portion and you count all the miracle up and he accomplished in his life time and there’s fifteen.  And people say “Oh he fell short of the double.”  But you remember in the Bible after he died they had buried Elisha and some men were out one day, they were going to bury somebody and a band of raiders was coming on the scene they had to quickly bury this man.  They lowered him down same tomb that Elisha was buried at, he touched the bones, was raised from the dead. That is number sixteen so he got the double.

Sid:  You know I never thought about it that way, but that’s absolutely correct.  Let’s start with some basics, define a mantle.  What is a mantle?

Steven:  Sid back in the Old Testament a mantle usually was an animal skin or sometimes a piece of cloth that a holy man or woman of God would wear over their shoulders representing the authority or an anointing that God had placed upon their lives.  We see this particularly with the ministry office of the prophet because back in the Old Testament that was the only ministry office that was operating was the prophet’s ministry. You know we often think about Elijah how he had that camel’s skin over him and he was a rough type of man.  And so many times in the Old Covenant it was represented something that was physical whether it was animal skin or a piece of cloth. Of course over in the New Testament and under the age of grace we’re living, what we would refer to as the anointing or the Holy Spirit resting upon someone.

Sid:   Now one of the things that you do in your book about the mantles is that you teach on them but tell me how you happened to write this book in the first place.

Steven:  Well Sid, I had studied the subject of mantles for quite some time.  I felt like the Lord had a mantle, a special anointing for me, and you know the Lord’s called me into the ministry.  There’s many types of anointing, but I just in my heart I knew that the Lord had something special a special anointing for me, and I began to seek the Lord in prayer regarding that.  I actually sought the Lord for two years and after two years I said, “Lord I said, I’ve asked you for a special anointing and I don’t believe anything has ever happened to me that would be an answer to that prayer, but I said Lord, honestly I’m a little bit discouraged.”  And I remember that evening I went to bed after two years I prayed and sought the Lord, and nothing Sid had ever happened that would have answered that prayer.  But that night when I went to sleep later that night the Lord came to me and took me up into what we would call the second heaven up into the Spiritual atmosphere up above us about six or seven miles straight up.  I know sometimes when you see a beautiful airplane flying way up there that’s the enemies camp area up there where it says Satan whose the God of this world that’s where he has his control center.  But the Lord took me up into that spiritual atmosphere, placed me behind the large rock out cropping and I was able to look down into a valley.  Now this was in the spiritual realm up in the second heaven and Sid as I looked down into the valley I saw an enemy camp.  I saw evil spirits marching around something that they were patrolling and protecting.  These were huge evil spirits with enormous spheres eighteen feet tall and they were marching around whatever it was they were protecting and guarding.  And over the top where demonic creatures that had big huge wings, they looked like big huge bats.  They were flying over the top patrolling the airways guarding something.  And Sid as I looked at this I said, “Lord I sure would like to go down there and see what it is they are protecting.  And when I had said that Sid, two huge white angels with wings, these were angels of the Lord they flew right over might left shoulder and went down into that camp, they circled around that camp with tremendous speed and when they did that it stirred all of those evil spirits up into a frenzy it made them very mad.  And then those two angels took off with incredible speed and when they did that all of those demonic beings were chasing after those two angels.  And the Lord spoke to me and said go quickly those are my two decoy angels.  And Sid it was then that I was able to go down and see what was in that camp.

Sid:  And what was there?

Steven:  It was interesting I ran down that hill as fast as I could and I came up to my surprise what was a stack of clothing.  Sid the clothing was stacked up about five feet high, about eight feet long and it looked like it was stacked in a rectangular block.  And I looked at it I saw hats and gloves and scarves and boots, and all types of pieces of clothing and I said, “Lord, what is this?”  He said, “These are unclaimed mantles.”  Then He began to talk to me, he said, “My Saints that have come home to be with Me,” He said, “Many of them did not transfer on their mantle, they did not pass on their mantle.”  And so many of the great mantles of people in histories past that belong to the Lord they went over into the enemy’s camp because they were never used or never passed on.  And it was a remarkable experience, that’s actually where I received my first mantle.  Sid I took my right hand stuck it into that big pile of clothing and pulled out the mantle that the Lord had for me. It was amazing it was a blue sweatshirt.

Sid:  Now just out of curiosity did you just reach your hand into a pile or did He direct you to a particular one?

Steven:  No, it is very interesting Sid because in the Spirit realm knowledge comes very very quickly especially when the Lord’s there.  It’s like revelation knowledge is flowing so I somehow knew exactly where the mantle the Lord had for me was at.  So I just reached right into the right spot and I reached in so far I stuck my arms so far in I could feel the clothing pushing up to my shoulder.  But I yanked out the mantle and when I pulled it out and looked at it and held it up it was a blue sweatshirt.  But Sid you have to understand that blue is my favorite color and it also represents the prophetic ministry, it represents the open heavens.  And Sweatshirts are something I just always loved and enjoy to wear when I’m not ministering, when I’m traveling on an airplane or going to a meeting it’s always nice to be comfortable.  And I pulled it over my head, pushed my arms through the sleeves and it was a perfect fit.  And then the Lord told me exactly who use to wear that mantle, He said, “The person that use to wear this mantle was one of my trusted prophets.”  He told me where he lived at which was over in Europe, He told me when he lived in history, which was hundreds of years ago and He even told me His name.  And a few weeks later I was actually able to find old books written about this man, he’s actually recorded in church history.

Sid:  Now just out of curiosity these mantles that are being protected by the enemy was it the fault of the person that had the mantle for not transferring it?

Steven:  Sometimes it can be Sid because maybe there’s jealousy, maybe a person wants to keep it to himself, maybe a person thinks nobody else could do it like I could do it.  And sometimes they fail in raising up somebody to carry on the legacy. So sometimes people they want all the attention, they want it to be all about them and so they never raise up a successor.  But there are other situations beyond that persons control where that person would not be at fault and that’s the case when there’s somebody who’s not qualified.  So if there’s nobody qualified to receive the mantle it’s going to lie dormant and can lay, it can lie dormant for hundreds of years and we see that happening with Elijah passed the mantle to Elisha, but we wonder who got Elisha’s mantle.  But because Gehazi was next in line but Gehazi ran after money after the healing miracle of Naaman tried to tell Naaman to give him money and he actually took it the wrong way and he lost the opportunity to walk in that prophetic mantle that  had rested upon Elisha.  And the next time we see that mantle which originally started with Elijah is all way down the line with John the Baptist, and that’s 800 years later.  So that mantle had lied dormant for about 800 years before it fell on a person that was qualified to wear it; and that was John the Baptist.

Sid:  And what change occurred in your life from this specific mantle that you received?

Steven:  Sid, what happened is that when after this experience happened everything was normal for a few days and then I an angelic encounter. I began to see angels, the Lord began to open up my spiritual eyes and I could see and hear into the spiritual realm. This had never happened in my life before, and so it was tremendous shift for me.  And I didn’t even tell people things but I would go out and minister in meetings, the gifts would operate in my ministry like never before, and people would say without even me asking they would say “Steven there is something different about your ministry now; it’s at a much deeper level and the words of knowledge that you are operating in you certainly something has changed with you.”  But you know Sid when I found this book, and actually several books written about this man that actually record the history of that man’s ministry whose ministry I received I found out that he was known for having have angelic visitations; and being able to see into the spirit realm.  So that’s what’s wonderful about a mantle or anointing, it will fit for the calling and the purpose that the Lord has assigned for that individual.

Sid Roth welcomes Mark Virkler

Sid:  My guest, Mark Virkler challenges you, you’ll spend a third of your life sleeping, how would you like that third of your life redeemed by the Lord where he will literally speak to you; give you warnings of perhaps destruction or disaster that’s coming your way; telling you what to invest in give you solutions to problems; redirect your life.  Doesn’t that sound a whole lot better, well I gave you a challenge yesterday, I told you to put a little piece of paper and a pencil next to the lamp stand by your bed and write down your dreams.  Now assuming that someone did it or they will do that tonight; Mark Virkler now they have they’re dream.  The key is for the Holy Spirit of explain to them that dream.  For starters how are they going to hear the Spirit of God to give them this revelation?

Mark:  All right so what does God’s voice sound like?  I’m going to suggest that God’s voice sounds like spontaneous thoughts that light up on your mind while your eyes are fixed on Jesus, while your heart is fixed on His Son Jesus.  So I’ve written down this summary of the dreams, I’ve got these images here and then I start asking some key questions and I tune to flowing thoughts and flowing pictures, believing that they’re going to bubble up from the River of God within me and they will.  And I jot down what’s coming to me and I jot down the summary of it; I like to work together.  One can put a thousand to flight, two can put ten thousand, I hate learning stuff alone, I like to get my spouse in with it, my kids in with it, my home group with it, just learn together and we share what we found and people offer other pieces in and we get a bigger picture; a more complete picture and my heart bares witness and finally leaps and says, “Bingo, that’s it.”  And no one should ever except an interpretation to their heart does not leap to and say yes, yes, yes!

Sid:  And that’s what happened to me off the air when I shared the dream that I had and you told me, what it meant and I said, “That’s what I believed it meant!”  You were just confirming what the Holy Spirit had shown me, but I didn’t have enough confidence to believe it.

Mark:   Yeah, and that’s the value of a couple people sharing together because they help spur ideas, but the final analysis is when your heart leaps and says yes.  And if your heart doesn’t leap you should not accept any interpretation to your dream that your heart does not leap to and say yes, yes, yes!

Sid:  Mark, I want you to give me some of your real life experiences; I want you to tell me certain dreams that you recall and the process that occurred for you to understand your own dream.

Mark:  Alright Sid, let me just share a couple dreams; dreams come out of the day that you just lived in.  Alright that’s a Biblical principal and Paul had that, he was wondering where to go on his missionary journey and the Spirit forbid him to go to Bithynia and Asia and then he had a dream at night, that night of a Macedonia man saying, “Come on over.”  And so he woke up in the morning, acted on his dream and said, “God told me to go to Macedonia.”  So I’m going to assume that my dream is answering the question I went to sleep with.  So this night I went to sleep having just began a brand new endeavor in my life, I had learned how to hear God’s voice for the first time, I had learned the four keys: Quiet yourself down, fix your eyes on Jesus, tuned to spontaneity and to write.  And I journaled for five hours and wrote out five hours of God talking to me which was a life changing experience.  Now that night I put a piece of paper next to my bed and even though I had not recalled a dream for nine months, I recalled three dreams that first night; and the first time, it is simple again, you just ask for a dream and you expect it and you put paper there.  The first dream I have a new job, I’m a care taker of a house, I’m going up the stairs into the bathroom getting cleaning supplies; getting back down the stairs and I’m riding a horse.  And that’s pretty awkward and so I journaled about it, I said, “Lord, what is this?” Well, you know the questions you want to ask are, “What are the key symbols?”  Well the first symbol is I have a new job.  Well okay what might that symbolize in light of the day I just lived,?” Well, hey I did get a new job yesterday, I got a job of hearing God’s voice, learned to use four keys.  Quiet myself down, fix my eyes on Jesus, tune to flow and write.  And so my dream said, “Okay you did something new yesterday,” I said, “Yep, how comfortable does this dream indicate I feel about this new job?”  “I feel like a horse on the stairway, I feel like a bull in the china closet.” I said, “God, I’m a theologian, I’m not into visions and dreams and flow and I feel really awkward.”  But the next symbol of the dream said “Yeah, but if you stay with this even if you feel awkward, it’s going to take you up a flight of stairs.”  Well, a flight of stairs a higher plain, yeah, so it’s going to take me to higher place in God, and when we get there we are going to go into the bathroom, get some cleaning supplies out and were going to clean some things up and you know that’s true too.  If I hear God’s voice, He’s going to clean up some areas of my life, He’s going to say, “Mark, love your wife; don’t be so judgmental.”  Trust me those are things He said, over and over, fifty times a piece during that first year of journaling.  And those are cleaning supplies, so this dream is a message from God, saying, “Mark I know you feel awkward about what you’ve began today, stick with it, it’s going to take you to a great place in me and clean up the marriage of your life.”  And the second dream I had that night, I pulled my car into a parking lot, turned it off and it won’t turn off and it won’t turn off.  So hear is another kind of question you can ask, you can ask, “In what way am I experiencing that symbol in my life right now?”  So if I paraphrase that question I say, “Fine, so what is in my life yesterday that I tried to turn off that it wouldn’t turn off?”  And I tuned to flow and it pops into my mind just like that, and I said, “I know what it was, I tried to turn off my left brain logic and reason and say “Look, I’m going to go with heart flow here for a little bit and picture in my left brain reason said, “Your not shuting me off.  Ha-ha, you can try to turn me off but I’m not turning off because I rule in your life.  I’m the god you worship.  And I had to dethrone it and say, “No, rationalism is not the God I worship.”  Christianity is heart to heart, not head to head.”  And so those dreams were examples of me having to battle through and show the issues in my heart when I went to sleep and learned how to process and properly so I can move forward a step in God.  So here’s what Proverbs chapter 20 verse 5 says, “Counsel in the heart of a man is like deep water, but a man of understanding will draw it out.”  And of course when God says, “When I give you a dream, I’m the Wonderful Counselor giving you counsel in your heart.”  So the Bible says okay great, how do you get it out?  So you have counsel in your heart, how do you get it?  Do you yank it out, do you demand it to come, He says, “No, I’m a man of understanding will draw it out.”  You ask the right question, you tune to flow and you let the Holy Spirit, draw out the understanding of that which your heart was communicating to you.  So that’s the process we use in Christian Dream Interpretation.

Sid:  Mark, as you do in your course, give me some examples of dreams that changed destinies of people, even destinies of country.

Mark:  All right, well you know we all remember Joseph’s dreams, alright and “Sun, moon and stars bowing down, it was showing him his future; that there was going to come a time in his future where he was going to rule and even his parents and brothers and sisters would bow down to him.  He believed it; he ended up living that out.  Pharaoh was given dreams of seven fat cows and seven skinny cows.  The next fourteen years saying look, you’re going to have seven years of plenty, stock up because there is going to be seven years of famine after that and if you’re not stocked up your going to be hurting.  So he stocked up.  Nebuchadnezzar, he has a dream, you know he goes to bed saying, “I’m the greatest King whose ever lived you know and my kingdom will go on as an everlasting kingdom.  And he has a dream that night of a tree being chopped off at the roots.  Well knowing what was on his heart that night, that he was full of pride that dream says, “You’re an arrogant fool and if you don’t repent you’re going to be cut down.  And he took his dream to Daniel.  Daniel interpreteted it and Daniel said to him, “You know what?  The dream is saying that if you do not recognize that the most high is Ruler over all mankind and you do not repent, God’s going to cut you down; you’re going to be like a wild beast in the field.  And then Daniel pled with him, he said, “Please, please repent so that this calamity does not befall you.  And the next verse says, twelve months later he didn’t repent for twelve months, twelve months later, the king does lose his mind and he goes out for seven years and eats grass.”  God is pleading with us to repent; he’s showing us things in our dreams.

Sid:  So, that kind of brings the next question that I have, and that is, let’s suppose someone has a dream that they are going to die of cancer, what would you do?  Or what should they do if they had such a dream, is it totally fatalistic, is it going to happen?

Mark:   No, dreams are not fatalistic there just warnings, just like Herman Riffle had a dream you know, if you stay on this path it’ll take you down, but the dream the Bible says, is very clear, that the dream is a warning encouraging us to get off that path.  Job 33:14 and following says God speaks once or twice in a dream and a vision of the night and He says, the purpose of this is to keep his life from perishing.  So God isn’t saying this is fatalism, he says look, I’m warning you, all right.  And if you can heed this warning, you don’t have to perish.  So I would never accept the dream as fatalism, I would say hey, here’s a warning, it’s a mid course correction, change your step so that you do not fall into this calamity and instead you walk into the blessing that the Lord has for your life.

Sid:  I’m thinking, what would happen if the President of the United States was to have a dream from God of which God would redirect his thinking from political thinking to God thinking?  That would change the destiny of America.

Mark:  Let’s pray for that to happen, we’re to pray for our…

Sid:  I agree in Yeshua’s Name right now, that President Obama will have and you agree with me…

Mark:  Yes.

Sid:  Will have a dream from Heaven about Israel, about the United States, about the economy, about the morality of this nation and would become radical in his steps for You.

Our Guest Kathie Walters

Sid:  My guest, Kathie Walters has been walking in the supernatural for many years, what is unusual for most Christians is normal for Kathie.  She says, “Everyone should become normal.”  Tell me about the angels that look like Israeli soldiers that you saw in Israel.

Kathie:  Okay, can I say something first because I’m feeling something on today’s broadcast, I can feel like heaviness on the mind.  And I feel like people listening today have been under, a lot of people have been under some real heavy religious mindsets and a lot of condemnation.  And so when you feel that people tend not to feel worthy of seeing angels, or not to feel worthy of seeing the supernatural, but the supernatural realm is for every single Christian, it’s supposed to be a normal part of our life.  You just have to decide to believe this is for me this supernatural realm, my inheritance.  Jesus died that we would all walk in it, not just a few special people, so I just wanted to say that because I feel there’s heaviness on the mind; it’s good to be light headed.  You know, you have your mind full of the Holy Spirit and you can be light headed and then it’s much easier for God to speak to you and then you begin to see the things of the Spirit much more clearly and easily.  But when I was in Israel and I saw this friend and she wanted to ask a rabbi some questions about a festival that was happening but we couldn’t get near the rabbi because there was a crowd around him.  So she said, “Oh I just wanted to ask these questions and suddenly in front of us appeared an angel, but he was dressed like an Israeli soldier.  And we were in the middle of a courtyard, there was nowhere for him to come from, but he just stood in front of us and he began to answer my friends questions in perfect English.  Now she hadn’t asked him the questions, but he just came and stood over us in front and answered the questions.

Sid:  We’re going to have more and more reports of experiences with angels with this brand new outpouring of God’s spirit, I believe that Kathy.

Kathie:  It’s happening, it’s happening.

Sid:  And you know something else that is pretty interesting, you talk about there are angels for ministries, angels for churches, and sometimes when someone is ministering that has their own angel, the angel of the church sort of sits down and lets the angel with the guest minister demonstrate the power of God.  Give me some examples. 

Kathie:  Okay, can I just finish that other little story, because what was interesting about that angel in Israel was, he answered the questions then totally disappeared.  Then my friend said, “Oh I forgot to ask, and he immediately was back again.”  But when he left the anointing on us was so strong, that people that came near us after that literally were not able to stand up.  So those angels are all over Israel.  Anyway, you were asking me about a meeting and I saw something very interesting in a meeting one time and there’s a principal.  I was in a meeting of end time handmaidens with Gwen Shaw and I saw an angel standing in the balcony watching over the meeting; he had his arms folded just watching.  And I said to the Lord, “Who is that?”  And the Lord said, “That’s the angel that’s over this ministry and he is under and Arc Angel Michael who is over Jerusalem.”  Well, I thought that is interesting; the next day he was there again but he suddenly moved over to the other side of the balcony and another angel came and stood in that place where he had been.  But the other angel was like a glory cloud with a figure of a man in it and I thought, “What is going on?”  And the next thing Gwen Shaw introduced Ruth Heflin’s going to speak.   So Ruth Heflin came and I realized the angel that I saw, the glory angel had come with Ruth.  Ruth ministered to the people and then she left, and when she left that angel went with her and the first angel came and stood back in his place.  So I saw that when, like if you are invited somewhere to minister at a church or conference of whatever, the angel over that church stands aside so that your angel can take control of the meeting.  And when you leave the first angel comes back again, that’s why you shouldn’t do things without being invited.

Sid:  Oh, well you end up being there by yourself.  There’s another interesting story that I think is fascinating about being translated in a mosque and knowing things about people.

Kathie:  Yeah, I actually was in a prayer meeting in Florida just praying with these ladies, I didn’t really know them very much and the Holy Spirit said to me, “You need to go and stand in the next room, the living room.”  I said, “I can’t walk around someone’s house that I don’t know.”  And so He said, “Just do it.”  And so I went into the next room and this light came down; it was kind of like being beamed up or something; this light came down and hit me.  I actually fell on the floor, but the nest minute I was walking in the streets in Jerusalem with Jesus and we were walking around.  He started to tell me about different people that we saw. The next minute I was standing in back of the mosques, well I’ve always been very careful to avoid the mosque, but I was standing in the back and Jesus was there and He said, “Just wait there.”  And there were a lot of men kneeling on mats on the floor and He went and touched three or four of them on the shoulder and He came back to me and He said, “These men are going to be saved and I’m sending someone here to minister to them.”  Then we walked out of the mosque and walked down the Via Delarosa, we walked in the old city.  And then He suddenly, I don’t know how long I was there, but He suddenly turned to me and said to me, “You have to leave now.”  So I said, “Oh no, I’ll stay you know this is interesting future move by different people.”  He said, “No, you have to go because I’m going to visit the prayer meeting in the convent.  That’s where Mother Barbara was who had that very famous Russian prophecy in 1904.

Sid:  Quickly, I’m not familiar with that prophecy from 1904.

Kathie:  It was given to a Russian Monk in 1904 and Mother Barbara brought it with her to Jerusalem, she went to Jerusalem and it was a prophecy about the nations.  But it said, “That the rivers of blood will flow in Russia, it said Germany would be divided in two, Great Britain would lose her empire and I don’t want to try to remember off hand but it’s very famous prophecy.  Anyway, He said, “I have to go and the next minute I was back on the floor in Florida but I don’t know when you have those experiences you actually do kind of leave your body. Sometimes in revival we say, “Talk about going away, they went away” and that’s happened to me several times I’ve been away somewhere, but when you come back the presence of God is so strong that you can’t move.”  I don’t know if you’ve had that experience but you can’t even move your eyelids; the people think that you’ve kind of died or something.  When I came back all these people were praying over me you know and it takes a little while to kind of come back again.  But yeah I went to different places that way and I perceive that that’s increasing too; but like I say, “It’s for everyone, everybody, everybody, everybody not just a few special people.  I wish people would start believing that and start believing that it’s for me.  You start declaring this is my inheritance, this realm of the spirit.

Sid:  Kathy, something very special is going to happen on tomorrows broadcast.  How do I know that?  Because there is, I don’t know if an angel came into this studio but something significant happened in the Spirit just about oh, five minutes ago into our conversation that wasn’t present before.  But even as you were talking about getting a little woozy I was getting a little woozy as you were saying that.

Kathie:  Well, there’s the angels that came around you with the blue lights you remember?

Sid: …Kathy we are going to talk on tomorrows broadcast about the Honey Angel, but give me just a little bit a preview of the Honey Angel.

Kathie:  Well, it finally represents the Spirit of revelation and so the Lord, I have known Him to release that Honey Angel, He’s been given honey to everybody that wants it and that’s the spirit of revelation and I’ll explain that.  And I’ll explain what happened when he came and how he’s been released everywhere now to bring the honey.

Sid:  Well, start just a little bit.

Kathie:  Well, the honey, you see people have had lots and lots of head knowledge even though it’s been kind of like charismatic head knowledge or something but the real revelation of the Spirit comes to take you into the spirit realm.  Not just to catch little glimpses, not just to have a vision now and again, but to actually be caught up and taken up into the spiritual realm which is the Spirit revelation and God is pouring that out.

Sid:  And one of the things when I think about you Kathy, I think about you in the Spirit you go on chariot rides.

Kathie:  Yes!

Sid Roth:  I mean you literally did that one time when we were having dinner together.  It’s, I don’t want to confess this, but I haven’t had that yet and you provoke me to jealousy.

Sid Roth welcomes Melanie Hemry & Gina Lynnes

Sid:  My guest has to be red hot for the Messiah because she had a disease that is a death sentence and she is one of the testimonies in the book that we are featuring this week called “Anointing for Healing.”  And the thing that I love about this book is that all of these testimonies are so well documented and researched.  All of these miracles and it’s the type of book that if you need a faith injection, I mean I’m amazed that how these authors got such unusual testimonies, I mean a child with autism was totally healed.  A pianist with Multiple Sclerosis totally healed, a young man with one of rarest and the deadliest forms of Leukemia, actually it is so rare it comes from Africa totally healed.  And my guest right now is Wendy Moore, I’m speaking to her at home in Flint, Michigan.  And Wendy, “You were a paramedic so that means you had to be a pretty active person, why did you feel that you had to go to a neurologist?”

Wendy:  Well Sid, I started experiencing some weakness in my legs that for a twenty-seven year old young active woman, wife & mother that I was was just not normal.  And I could sense that something wasn’t right with me, I was having trouble lifting patients; I was tripping, falling a lot and so after a battery of tests from a neurologist locally here in Flint they sent me down to the University of Michigan a hospital in Anne Arbor.  And the University of Michigan is one of the only fourteen ALS centers in the country so they specialize in this disease and after they ruled out several other neurological diseases they did an EMT on me and it actually had showed nerve death within fourteen days that the tests were performed.  So that is how they make the diagnosis of ALS.

Sid:  So when you found out what you had wrong, Lou Gehrig’s disease or ALS what did the doctor prepare you for?

Wendy:  Well, I was with my husband and my Mom and Dad and they came into the room and I wasn’t expecting to be told that I had any kind of disease.  You know I thought be something that they could go in and fix, maybe I had something wrong with my back you know, I wasn’t sure.  But they come in and she “Wendy, the disease that you have is ALS or you may better know it as Lou Gehrig’s disease. Then, I just broke down crying because they were telling me I had a disease and I asked them, I said, “Can you tell me, you know am I going to die?”  And she said, “Do you really, you know do you really want to know?”  I said “Yes, I do.” I had a baby that was four weeks old; I had my son four weeks earlier.  My son was born March 15th of 2001 and I was diagnosed April 17th of 2001 and a two year old.  And she said, “Well 50% of people live two to five years” and the whole family just broke down bawling and you’re just in disbelief; total shock, just overwhelmed with just sadness, a burden, heaviness I just can’t describe it to you unless you’ve actually been through something like that.

Sid:  Beyond it being a death sentence, it’s a horrible death sentence, what happens to someone with Lou Gehrig’s disease?

Wendy:  When somebody has Lou Gehrig’s disease you know typically they start falling, and your muscle, which I started to do, I obviously had nerve damage happening throughout my body but in my legs in particular and my muscles were not operating the way they were supposed to.  Lou Gehrig’s is a debilitating disease where the muscles actually waste away and a person becomes paralyzed.  You just get weaker and weaker and weaker until you’re in a wheelchair and eventually bed ridden.  And then death usually incurs when the diaphragm, you know you no longer can breathe, so basically you suffocate to death.

Sid:  Now, you were a Christian, but you didn’t understand anything about healing so I imagine you had literally no shred of hope and you started getting a lot of understandably so dark thoughts.

Wendy:  Absolutely your mind, you know you are totally controlled by what your mind thinks and my mind was just, I had nothing positive in my mind at all.  But I had an Aunt, my Aunt Jan that came along and told me “Windy, this is, this is not going to happen, you are going to get into God’s Word and were going to see and we’re going to agree together as a family for your healing and stand on God’s healing promises.  And she said, “You need to get into this Bible College that I went to and go see what God’s word has to say about healing.  So my family, my Mom and my Dad and Husband and my Brothers, we all went together and went to Bible school and learned what God’s promises were about healing.  And eventually when you start putting that into your heart and into your soul and you start mediating on God’s word, you know the Bible says that that faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God.  And eventually your faith starts to rise up as that goes on.

Sid:  Well, you began to do things like posting scriptures all over your house.

Wendy:  Absolutely, we took scriptures and because, I had negative thoughts Sid, you know the devil comes to rob, kill and destroy you know and he came as often as he could.  And I would call my Mom and Dad crying and cried on my Husband and whenever I would trip and fall and I was having a bad day and not feeling well, and we would cast my thoughts down and replace it with the Word of God.  And I would put, we had scriptures posted in my bathroom, it was on the refrigerator, in the bedroom, anywhere you could go, so I couldn’t get a spare second without mediating on God’s Word.

Sid:  But then you were taught that you had to mediate, but sort of a faith without a corresponding action is really dead faith; so you wanted your faith to be alive so what did you do?

Wendy:  Well, I decided that faith without works is dead, exactly like the scriptures says and if  I was going to believe that God healed me and that He took care of it on the cross back when he died for our sins and our healing.  It wasn’t just for sins you know He died for our physical healing as well, and I think that’s where Christians you know the Bible says “That My people perish daily for lack of knowledge.” So that was a… you know, because I always use to wonder this other person was a Christian and they died of something.  You know my people, I think that there are a lot of good Christian people out there that just believe that God died on the cross for our salvation and there are tons of things in the Bible that talk about physical healing that Jesus still heals today.  And when you stand on those healing promises and your faith rises up manifestations of that physically start to happen.  So I decided that if I was going to act on my faith, I went back to work fulltime, I’m a dispatch supervisor at the 911.

Sid:  But how could you do that, you don’t even have your balance, how would they even take you back?

Wendy:  Yeah, my boss told be you come back however you can come back you come back to work; we want you here we support, they had faith with me and we support whatever your decision is.  And I went back to work full time and you know what I had my days Sid; I had my days, but eventually as I kept just flooding myself with the Word of God and there’s power in agreement and I had every member of my family and friends agreeing for my total healing with me you know there’s power in agreement.  And I wouldn’t listen to any… I wouldn’t read any negative articles, I wouldn’t watch any negative programs as far as death and dying and all that type of thing; I only put in my mind positive, life filled, healing scriptures.  Eventually the manifestations of what I was doing started coming to pass.

Sid:  When was the first time you saw something little happen that was positive in your body?

Wendy:  We had a baptismal service for my son and one of the woman in the church got a Word of Knowledge and she came up in front of the church and she said…basically when I was up there with my son she said, the Spirit was moving her to come up and tell me that everything was going to be okay and that this disease was going to be eradicated.  And she didn’t do it; she said “Lord if it’s meant to be that I tell Wendy this, let me see her face again.”  Well, a few weeks later I went up to the front of the church for everybody to lay hands on me, and she saw my face again and she came up and gave me a Word of Knowledge.  And she said, “Dolores told me that this disease will be eradicated within your body within thirty days.”  I don’t understand what the thirty days was because it was about two years later that I was told and it was confirmed by doctors that I didn’t have this anymore, but I think that God requires us to stand…

Sid:  How did the doctors respond to you being healed if you’re not supposed to be healed of Lou Gehrig’s!

Wendy:  No, I went down to the doctor I started out going every three months and you know I would see a team of doctors, a respiratory therapist, a social worker and I was doing so well and we told them how I believe.  We told them how we were going to cooperate with them and that we wanted them to treat me or you know to keep track of my strength or whatever, but that we told them we believe that God is going to heal me; that’s how we’re believing and they’d never looked at us funny they never; they supported us 100%.  But really why wouldn’t you when this is a death sentence and there was nothing they could do to help me.

Sid Roth:  Well, listen there are people listening to us right now and they’ve been given death sentences or they know people that have or they want to be able to pray for the sick…

Sid Roth welcomes Mark Blitz

Sid:  This week we’ve been pointing out the Biblical Feast that God says to observe forever, in fact I have a question for you. “If we know as a fact and we know this from the New Testament that that the First Church observed all these biblical Feasts; we know in the Millennium we’ll be observing the Biblical Feasts, why did we stop?”  Pastor Mark Biltz, that’s a good question for you, “Why did we stop observing the Feasts?

Mark:  Well, I think we stopped observing the Feasts Sid, because we wanted to cut off our relationship with God’s people, with Israel.  And it’s amazing there’s a verse in Jeremiah that says that the Gentiles are going to come and say “Our Fathers, we have inherited lies.”  And I think part of what’s happened is tradition among us that we need to get away from man’s tradition and get back into the Biblical Tradition Sid.  I really think that the devil doesn’t want us to keep the appointed times because He doesn’t want us to be aware of what God is trying to do.

Sid:  Well, we’ve been talking all this week on showing to the exact day, the exact hour if you will the first coming of Jesus, the dress rehearsals were in the early Feasts, the spring Feasts, but then the fall Feasts predict the exact return of Messiah if we have eyes to see.  Give us some clues on His return.

Mark:  I believe people believe in Devine appointments and like you said, the spring Feasts are the dress rehearsals for his first coming; the fall Feasts are the dress rehearsals for His second coming.  Why wouldn’t we want to learn about the fall Feasts, because they all speak of His Second Coming?  Now, we don’t set dates by any means, but the Feast of Trumpets, do we hear the word trumpets in the Book of Revelation?  Of course we do, and so the Feasts of Trumpets is very key to understanding, when you understand the dress rehearsal, when you do these things all of a sudden the scriptures begins to come to light.  And I don’t set dates, but I believe some year on the Feast of Trumpets is when the Tribulation will begin, and then on Yom Kippur I believe scripturally some year on Yom Kippur that’s known as face to face I think that’s when Messiah will remove the blinders off the nation of Israel and they’ll come to realize that He is the Messiah; they will look upon Him whom they have pierced one.

And then the Feast of Tabernacles speaks of His coming back and tabernacling among men for a thousand years, the thousand year sabbatical rest.  So all three of these Feasts speak of His Coming and so that’s why I think that it’s so important that we begin to realize that and understand they’re dress rehearsals.

Sid:  Now you’ve recently uncovered some strange signs that tie in with the Feasts.

Mark:  I definitely did and these are definitely supernatural signs.  In Genesis 1 God said, “He put the sun and the moon and stars in the heavens for signs;” that’s the number one reason.  He has four reasons; He says for first and foremost they were for signs and the Hebrew word is Ote and it means a signal, for an appearing.  So that’s why even the Magi and they were looking at the stars and so He wanted to signal us.  Then He says not only for signs, they’re for seasons; well we think winter, spring, summer, fall, but the Hebrew word is Moahd the same word translated as Feasts.  So the sun and the moon were signals for on His Feasts days, when they should be kept.  Well, what’s amazing to me is I went to NASA’s web site, the National Aeronautics Space Administration, this is our government, NASA’s web site, because they list all the solar eclipses for the last several thousand years and the next several thousand years.  And I noticed in Joel and the Gospels, God talked about how there would be signs in the sun and the moon and so I looked and low and behold in 2014 and 2015 there are four total lunar eclipses back to back with no partial eclipses between.  And as I’m looking at that I’m looking at April, you know March, September, October and all of a sudden, it hit me like a ton of bricks.  I need to look at when these fall on the Biblical calendar because that’s what God uses to communicate.  So I looked and low and behold, the total lunar eclipses in 2014 fall on the first Passover and the first day of Tabernacle.  And then on 2015 it was the same thing, they fell on the first day of Passover, the first day of Tabernacle.  And so I thought oh my, this must be a sign God’s trying to tell us something.  Well, the next thing was “How often does this happen?”  and so I looked and in the 1600’s  there are no four blood moons back to back, NASA calls them Tetrads, in the 1700’s there were none, in the 1800’s there were none.  And so then I looked to the 1900’s, this last century, low and behold it happened twice; so I was interested to see when they fell.   Well, they fell in 1967 and 1968 and in 1967 is when they recaptured Jerusalem and then I went back more and they fell in 1949 and 1950 which is right after Israel became a nation in 1948.  And so I thought, “Oh, my goodness these supernatural signs of the sky falling on these Feasts days that are tied to the nation of Israel.  And so when I went back and I saw that there were none in the 1800’s, 1700’s, 1600s; I went to the 1500’s and there were like six or seven tetrads but none of them fell on the Feasts days.  I went to the 1400’s and low and behold in 1492 is when all the Jews were kicked out of Spain on the 9thof Av, well what do you find?  There is another four blood moons on Passover and Succot in 1493 and 1494.  So then I thought, oh my goodness and so then I went fast forward to see if it happens again in this century no more again for the next hundred years do you have four blood moons happen on Passover, Succot in this century.  So I felt 2014 and 2015 is very significant; well then I thought He also talked about the sun.  So then I went and I went to NASA’s web site, low and behold in 2015 there is a total solar eclipse that begins the biblical year on Adar 30 Nissan One.  And so I thought the total solar eclipse beginning the biblical calendar and then on the Feast of Trumpets there’s another solar eclipse and it’s a partial solar eclipse.  So I saw 2014, 2015 as very interesting coming up because in 2015 you have a total solar eclipse beginning the calendar year, the Biblical calendar, two weeks later on Passover a total lunar eclipse followed by another solar eclipse on the Feast of Trumpets, followed by another total lunar eclipse on the Feast of Tabernacles.  Now I don’t set dates I’m not…

Sid:  Now I know you don’t because the Bible says we can’t do that, but I can get your sanctified speculation, what do you think these signs could be?

Mark:  Well, the fact that these signs are all falling on the festivals and God said, “He’s given the sun, and the moon for signs on His feast days, I think we very well could see the Return of the Lord somewhere right around there.

Sid:  But speaking about the return of the Lord, tell me a bit about Rashanah, the Feast of Trumpets.

Mark:  The Feast of Trumpets is all about warning, the days that lead up to it are known as the days of Tishuvav or the Days of Repentance.  And so I believe that God wants all of us to begin to repent, to begin to return to Him.  In Judaism it’s also known as the day of the Awakening Blast, which I thought was quite interesting.  And again I don’t set dates for the Resurrection of the Dead but according to Judaism they believe it would fall some year on the Feast of Trumpets.  It’s also known as the ha-Kiddishim which is the wedding of the Messiah.  And so within Judaism they believe that some year on the Feast of Trumpets, that is when the wedding of the Messiah will take place, also Ha-Melech, or the Coronation of the Messiah.  It’s known as yom hadin the judgment and the opening of the books.  And so there’s so much within when we study our Hebrew roots that the Jews have seen for thousands of years that I think would be very good for us to pay attention to.

Sid Roth: …You know, I think that’s its God’s time right now, as a matter of fact would you care to speculate as to why Christians for the first time in almost 2000 years are getting interested in their Jewish roots?

Mark:  I love that question, I think it’s the Spirit of God, I think that it’s a supernatural sign from God, He’s putting us back within our hearts those that love Yeshua realize that He was Jewish.  And we’re beginning to return back to our roots and I believe this is the sign that we are living in these last days that people are living in these last days that people are all of a sudden getting a heart for Israel, a heart for the Jews and a heart for getting back to our original roots.

Sid Roth:  Why would you speculate that the anti-Christ system doesn’t want us to understand the appointed times of the Feasts.

Mark:  Well, I think that it’s because he doesn’t want us to be ready and I think God wants us to be ready so He’s trying to warn us.  And the Anti-Christ wants to change the times and the seasons so that we’re not aware.  And I think that he’s trying to thwart the return of Messiah.   He failed when he tried to destroy Israel in the Holocaust because he knew God was going to have them become a nation again.  And I believe the whole thing now with the whole problem in Israel, the devil doesn’t want the Jews to return to the land because he knows that it’s a land issue and God’s to reign from there and he’s trying to stop it.  And so if we want to be on the right side of history and the right side of the Bible we really need to begin to understand this from the Hebraic perspective.

Sid Roth welcomes Don Dickerman

Sid:  And you know I don’t understand a backslider when you know what’s back there you’d never want to backslide.  But my guest knows what’s back there his name is Don Dickerman I’m speaking to him at his home at Bedford, Texas.  And Don has been in prison ministry for many years, he’s been in hundreds of prisons, thousands receive salvation.  But as a good Baptist pastor which he was ordained as a Baptist Pastor, he did not understand the supernatural and it was like revolving doors, someone would get saved, would leave prison and then the next thing you know they’d be back in prison.  And he said, “There’s got to be something more,” and he prayed out one night, and he said, “Lord,” he didn’t even know what he was praying but he said, “Lord make me a deliverer” and then he had a prophesy.  And the prophesy was that, “Oil would splash off his body and people would get healed and delivered,” and as he started speaking people were getting healed.  In fact Don you started getting words of knowledge; tell me about the one where you saw a rat eating the inside of someone’s colon.

Don:  You know that was my first experience with something like that and I have to say Sid, I guess it was my background, but I was always very cautious about speaking something that wasn’t from God and you know and saying it was.  But I was sitting in a prison chapel down in Huntsville and I went to that particular prison once a month and we had probably three or four hundred guys in the chapel and their little praise band was singing and I was sitting on the platform waiting for time to speak.  And I had just a mental image in my mind, but it was so clear I could see like an ugly rat with jagged teeth inside of someone’s colon just gnawing away at it; it was a very strange, obviously a strange vision.  But I did know what it was and I didn’t know what to do with it but I felt the Holy Spirit was telling me somebody’s experiencing that pain right now and I’m going to heal it.  So I cautiously when I got up I spoke that and I said, “Somebody here is going to be healed tonight of that problem.  Well a man jumped up and he just ran down the aisle he said, “That’s me, that’s me.”  Well, I prayed for him and he went back to his seat and said “He was healed and the pain had left.”  But after the service was over and the inmates were filing out back to their cell blocks an inmate came up to me and put a note in my pocket and he kind of hung around and I was shaking hands, guys were leaving.  He came back up to me and he said, “Sir, would you read that note now?”  And I opened it up and it said, “I’m the one, I’m the one with the colon problem” and he told me that he was embarrassed to come up front earlier, but that he’d just got back from the prison hospital and horrible pain And with a lump that I actually had seen that lump in the vision that was kind of hanging over his belt, a big knot.  But they told me I need surgery but since I was going to be released in a few months it could wait.  So I just put my hand on his stomach and prayed for him and commanded that to leave.  He doubled up in a knot and began to throw-up blood and bile and you know it was not the kind of thing that you want to talk about a lot, but some other inmates came with, got a towel and they cleaned up everything.  And I walked him to the back of the chapel and I didn’t know who he was, but you know he kept saying “The pain is gone, the pain is gone.”  So I left and he went back to his cell, but I didn’t know really what had happened and I didn’t know how to verify it, you can’t just call the prison.  So when I went back the next month, this man met me at the chapel door and he pulled up his shirt and he said, “It’s gone brother, its gone; I haven’t had a pain since then.”  And it was such a overwhelming thing to me, and such a confirmation of the Holy Spirit revealing something to me.  That would happen a few times after that and I learned that when that would come, when I would get some time of vision like that that would always happen, not just you know maybe, it always happened.

Sid: Listen.  I am so excited about the people that are going to get free from your brand new book, “When Pigs Move In.”  I’ve got a picture, It’s almost, not almost it is a before and after picture of an Irish prisoner by the name of Eddie Ferncomb.  Tell me about this particular Irish prisoner; tell me about this particular Irish prisoner, what did he do to end up in prison?

Don:  Well Eddie was he grew up in the streets of Dublin, he was a gang leader, but he was also a heroin addict at an early age and pretty violent; he had stabbed I think about fifteen people before he was fifteen years old.  He wound up in Ireland’s worse prison, in Portleigh, Ireland.  But I heard about him through a man that I know you, know, David Berkowitz.

Sid:  I’ve interviewed David who was also known as “Son of Sam” and that’s another amazing, amazing story.  I understand that you wrote a letter to David Berkowitz before he got saved and he wrote you a letter back and he said, “If I ever get out of here I’m going to murder you.”

Don:  Awe yeah, he said, “I’ll kill you.”  Yeah, I wrote David because I had seen you know God’s grace applied in so many lives and I didn’t know who he was and did know what he looked like but I had read about his crimes and I knew that he was in Adica, New York so I wrote him a letter.  And basically said, “God still loves you and he will save you.”  Well, he did write me write back and he said, “Don’t send me anymore stuff like this and he said “If I get out of here I’ll kill you.”  Well, I kind of joke about that now, it stopped our correspondence, but I ran into David, I was in his prison preaching Sid, in 1987 at eleven or twelve years after I’d written him that letter.  And I didn’t know that he was even in that prison, but he came up to me after the service and introduced himself, put his arm around me and said, “I want you to know I appreciate you and I appreciated the message tonight and I thank you for being faithful and you know,” and so on and David and I became friends and he calls me fairly often.

Sid:  So he was concerned about this Irish inmate.

Don:  He had read about Eddie in newspapers as being Ireland’s toughest prisoner and so on and he related to it.  But New York inmates are not allowed to write to write to any other inmates.  So he asked me, he said, “Would you write this man and witness to him like you did to me.”  Well, you know I was glad to that, well, Eddie answered my letter and we began to communicate through the mail and eventually Eddie accepted Christ by mail and I told him that about my family and our ministry.  And he asked me if I had any tapes I could send him, and I did from prisons services here in Texas.  And so I sent him a handful of prison service tapes and now this guy, Sid he’s in the deepest part of the prison, they had four to eight officers escort him wherever he went.  He was in the dungeon, but he did have a tape player so I sent him sever service tapes and he wrote me one day and said, “I have demons that I, and he listened to one of our services that included a mass deliverance at the end, a congregational deliverance.  And he said, “While you were talking and addressing these demons” he said, “Heat came all over me,” he said “I got so hot in the middle of the winter I was splashing my face with water.”  Any way he said, “I know I have demons, he said, “I told my chaplain about and he laughed at me.”  But in the letter he said, “Would you come to Ireland and help me be free?”  Well, it’s one of those things I guess the Holy Spirit just quickened in me as soon as I read it I knew I had to go, but I didn’t know how, I didn’t know anybody in Ireland and he put me in touch with a lady that had ministered to him some.  And she made arrangements, but I wound up going to that prison and sitting down in a private visiting room with Eddie, him shackled and officers all around and Eddie, Ferncomb received deliverance and it was a classic battle in the sense that his stronghold was unforgiveness, he couldn’t forgive.  And I told Eddie, “You know Eddie, if you can’t forgive, I can’t help you and I’ve come all this way, and I can’t do anything until you’re willing to forgive.”  So I actually left the prison that day and told him I would come back the next day, but he had to release that.  Well, when I went back the next day, it is kind of interesting the officer that walked me back to this dungeon area said, “Are you like David Wilkerson?” And I knew what he meant and I said, “Yeah, yeah I am, and he said, “Well, you’re welcome here lad.  And so Eddie came in that day, he had a smile on his face and he said, “I did it, he said, “I did it I forgave.”  Well, it’s a long story in itself but I took Eddie through deliverance.

Sid:  Listen, I have the picture of the before and the after, it’s unbelievable the glow of the glory of God on Eddie’s face.

Don:  It is.

Sid Roth:  And I’ll tell you what, you’re book has such an anointing on it.

Sid Roth welcomes Rebecca Greenwood

Sid:  I’m concerned because there are so many open doors to the demonic and as many Christians as non-Christians because they don’t have discernment are walking into these doors.  This is why I have Rebecca Greenwood on the telephone and we’re talking to her about her full course based on her brand new book just off the press called “Let Our Children Go”.   And Rebecca, just to kind of whet the appetite a little bit it seems as though there is a such a hunger among our young people to see movies about vampires.  Frankly, I don’t get it it must be a supernatural energy if you will that is drawing them like a pied piper.  For instance, I wasn’t aware of this until you told me about it because I don’t watch movies like this but there is a whole series of books and movies called “Twilight,” explain what that is. – Its Supernatural.

Becca:  Absolutely, there is a series out that is called “Twilight” and it is like the rage of the book industry and the movie industry and it is a story that is literally steeped in vampires and werewolves and it really tires to paint vampires in this beautiful light.  And so there is this vampire that is like the lead vampire and his name is Edward and I don’t watch movies like this or read books like this as well.  But in being involved in deliverance ministry like we are and praying for children and teens we are seeing this repeatedly as we’re ministering to youth when they come to receive prayer from us that they’ve watched these movies and for many it’s become a point of fear or an open door in their life.  And it paints this, there’s a seduction I guess is the best word for me to put behind it.

Sid:  That is the word there, okay I understand how the world is seduced, but how do parents allow their children to read these books and to go to these movies?  That I don’t understand, maybe they don’t realize what’s going on with their children. – Its Supernatural!

Becca: You know a lot of them don’t and then a lot of them just think that it’s a harmless book series, it’s a harmless movie series.  And what grieves me the most about this Sid is how many Christian children are reading these books and watching them.

Sid:  What is, I mean just briefly speak to a parent as to why this is dangerous for their child.

Becca:  It is absolutely dangerous because it paints this evil world of vampirism as a beautiful and a chaste thing.  And it paints these vampires, who they say are vegetarians and because they drink animal blood not human blood.  And it paints this as a beautiful thing, the woman that wrote this series, she purposely painted the vampires in a way to make them look like beautiful beings; and they’re not.  They are the demonic realm, they are of the demonic world and what it does if we allow our children to read these books and watch these movies it then begins to numb them to the influences of the world and they in their mind begin to think that it’s okay and we can do this, we can watch this.  But what happens is it becomes that open door to seduction.  There are eight year old girls that will walk up to Robert Paddison, the actor that starred in this and they will walk up to him, he was a vampire and they’ll say, “Please bite me, please bite me; make me a vampire like you.”

Sid:  Now what, I don’t quite get this, through the way that they have presented it the person in charge that put this together says they can put the children in a suicidal state faster than anything I know.

Becca:   Absolutely.

Sid:   Explain that.

Becca:  Literally what they did when they produced the movie they chose music groups and when they chose music groups, is it okay for me to say those groups?

Sid:  Sure.

Becca:  One of them is called “Marjorie Fair” and the other is called “My Chemical Romance” and they are music groups that they’ve chosen as the background music of the movies.  And she chose them, the author of the series chose those music groups because she said they will put you a suicidal state faster than anything else or it will make you want to go out and kill somebody.

Sid Roth:  And you know just going and jump into another area, something that concerns me greatly is that I get on airplanes, or even go to a restaurant and I see these kids just mesmerized by violent video games.  How dangerous is that?

Becca:  It’s greatly dangerous with these violent video games, what this does and what we’ve have learned and we’ve talk about even in the book it literally teaches the player whose playing these violent video games repeatedly that they develop positive attitudes towards the use of violence.  And they even get this expectancy that others are going to be aggressive to them that violence is a way to solve their problems.  And you know I’ve put this quote in the book, you know we teach our kids like to play basketball Sid Roth, and they shoot and they make the baskets repeatedly and woo everyone is all excited.  And the same thing happens with playing these violent video games and shooting and killing other people.  What happens is that if we can good at shooting baskets and scoring those two points repeatedly than if we can get good with killing people on video games and it teaches us that violence is a normal way of solving our problems in everyday life.  And many times when we have ministered to youth and to young people even young adults who have been steeped in these violent video games there will be many of them will be suffering with depression.  Many of them will have violent tendencies, they begin to pull themselves out of relating to other youth and they literally will become steeped in this game culture where they will play these games all night long on their computes with out kids across the internet.

Sid:  Tell me about the scientific studies, two in particular that were published in the journal of personality and social sociology on April 23, 2000.  Tell me about that.

Becca:  Yeah, let me read those to you, I’ve got them right here.  It literally says like, what I was saying, the player develops positive attitudes towards the use of violence.  The player develops expectations that others will behave aggressively, they assume that others have similar attitudes of aggression.  They become to believe that violence solutions are affective and appropriate for solving problems.  Listen to this, this one really gains my attention.  A player develops a total disregard for social norms, property rights and even the general value of other lives.

Sid:  We’re seeing society undermined with our youngest generation now; they’re growing up with this as normal.  As a matter of fact, I couldn’t believe the statics that you talk about of the next generation that will be evangelical Christians.  What percent did you say, it’s amazing.

Becca:  Four percent, statistics say that only four percent of this next generation will be the evangelical Christians.

Sid:  And what did they also say in reference to these young people looking at the wrong thing on the internet such as pornography, and occult, etc…Its Supernatural.

Becca:  Yes, I mean this is actually a huge, this is actually a huge issue and with them looking to pornography and what really grieves me is not only with the pornography, but there is even a new form of pornography out that is called gonzo pornography.  And this is actually a form of pornography that takes a viewer into the realm of the sexual act.  And what is happening with this gonzo pornography is that this is actually the form of pornography that is being used in and is being viewed by adults and even young children.  Most of them start watching or viewing pornography around the age of like eleven to twelve years old.  But the young people that are using this gonzo pornography are the children that are kidnapped, not even internationally but domestically into the human sex trafficking industry.  And so these young generations, they literally start watching and viewing pornography at the age of eleven to twelve.  That literally, even statistics for the church is 70% of Christians view pornography and they…

Sid Roth:  This internet that was supposed to be used for Godly purposes is saturating the home and some of the examples, Mishpochah you must understand that when you violate spiritual laws you give access to the demonic realm and they’ll hang around your children.  Children will be in fear and depression, additions, rejection…
