Thanks to a wonderful loyal member of our 'miracle family' who visited this Blog, I learned of a great and ugly mistake that we allowed. He emailed me that one of the ads (we were testing out) mentioned Edgar Cayce. This concerned friend did not think I knew who Edgar Cayce was…..no, the truth is, I did not see or read the ad as they changed constantly.
I was already upset about the 'meditation' ads and ready to pull all the ads off, and that email did it. My son Greg immediately pulled the ads at my request. The ads we now have are hand picked and should be good resources.
Those were Google ads and to be fair, their 'spider spies' pick up words from a Blog Post and send ads that are appropriate. Since I wrote on the 'Beautiful Side of Evil' the spiders sent out the very things I was writing against. Not Google's fault, just this wonderful electronic age we are in….both good and bad.
SO LET'S TURN WHAT COULD BE USED FOR EVIL TO GOOD!
Christians do not 'empty' their minds to meditate, we go to a quiet place, think about and talk to the Lord, think on His Word, and love on Him with words, praise and worship….whatever is comfortable in our personal relationship. We do not need anyone to teach us how to do it. We do not empty our mind, as an empty mind, and hypnosis is the devil's playground.
As our dear friend who 'blew the whistle' (thank God for all of you who will help keep us straight) thought I did not know about Edgar Cayce, I realized that many of you may not. Edgar Cayce was the foremost guru of 'New Age' thinking in the last century. Cayce was born in 1877 and died in 1945. He is best know for all the spiritual psychic 'readings' he had, on the following: (1) Health-Related Information; (2) Philosophy and Reincarnation; (3) Dreams and Dream Interpretation; (4) ESP and Psychic Phenomena; and (5) Spiritual Growth, Meditation, and Prayer. Cayce went to church and was known to read the Bible once a year.
Those things are all based in 'New Age Philosophy' and it is not new….it came right out of the Garden of Eden….reliance upon man, not God. And, has been popular in all ages as it draws good people who want to change the world, and for one personal reason or another do not accept that Jesus is the answer to doing that. I have had many fiends (may not after this Blog) who believe all this 'stuff' and they think I am as nieve' as I think they are sooooo deceived.
(1.) Health related subjects…..I dabbled in all of this before I met Jesus personally and turned my life around. I worked with a woman who had an extensive background in herbs and natural healing. However, she healed many people by calling her daughter, giving her their name, and waiting while her daughter went into a trance and told her how to heal them.
This is the strongest statement I am going to make: All, yes, all sickness is of the devil. Acts 10:38 says, "How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with Him." I love to read about the many Holy Ghost inspired healers in the last century, i.e. Kathryn Kuhlman, John G. Lake, Smith Wigglesworth, F F Bosworth, Alexander Dowie, Maria Woodworth Etter, Aimee Simple McPherson, and so many more. These generals in God's army all said 'sickness is of the devil'.
I was born again while working with this gracious woman, who wanted to help people, and I went to church everywhere and any time the doors were open. Boy, did I get some varied teaching and insight. When I learned what 'New Age' is, and all it embodies, I pulled away from my friend, (forgiving and blessing her, as she did not want to 'hear' from me) and learned all I could about healing and ways of God.
If sickness is all of the devil, why do we use doctors, nutrition, etc? Because God wants us healed, and our faith levels do not always match up with the 'Generals' I just mentioned, who saw healing of every kind and even the dead raised to life. However, (love that word) there are healing miracles happening all over the world now, every day, every minute. But, they are the result on reliance upon Jesus sacrifice and the Holy Spirit, not on psychic readings. Why shouldn't we use psychic readings if they are helpful? Because they open us to the demonic world and other bad things will come upon us.
The other four things mentioned in regard to Cayce are not Christian, no matter how much he read the Bible. The devil read the Bible too, he quoted it to Jesus in the wilderness. That is why we need to know the difference…..we need the Holy Spirit to guide us, not a 'spirit guide.'
2. Reincarnation: This is a nice theory, that we are recycled into something new over and over. What evidence is there that has ever happened? On the other hand Hebrews 9:27 says, 'it is appointed onto men once to die." and there are over 600 references to Heaven. I have personally interviewed people who died went to Heaven and was sent back–it is real.
3. Dreams and Dream interpretation….what would you rather have? A psychic listening to a demonic spirit or the Holy Spirit?
4. ESP and Psychic Phenomena…..hardly a question about that. All the information is received from demons, who network very well. "For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom: to another the word of knowledge by the Holy Spirit." (I Cor 12:8); We don't need psychic readings we have the Holy Spirit to give us words of wisdom and knowledge, especially for others. We just need to press in more to have these gifts. One thing I can tell you for sure, the psychics and the spiritual New Age people do. I had a neighbor several years who talked with her 'spirit guide' (what is called channeling) 3 to 4 hours a day…..how many of us pray that much?
That was not meant to be a 'guilt' trip, hopefully we all study, pray and keep the Holy Spirit with us all day every day. I hope this will give you some insight, there is so much more to say, but this should be sufficient for the day. I pray the Holy Spirit protected anyone else who visited the Blog when that ad was up and that we are all blessed that we know the plans and 'wiles' of the devil. (Eph 6) We are overcomers and have the victory. I do not hold my New Age friends guilty of sin, but instead hold the demons guilty of deception, break the assignments on them and pray the blessings of Lord into their life, commanding any veils over their minds removed (they are illegal since the veil was rent at the death of Jesus) and the prophecy of Jesus released all around them (Rev 19). Always in Jesus Name, Amen!!! Arguments about all of this are not won with words, but with prayer!
Thanks for your understanding and support…..blessings, blessings, blessings in our Jesus!

My cousin, Barbara, sent me this and if it is for real it is wonderful…..sure can't hurt anyone!
Here is the article: (Sorry it didn't copy well, but think you can read it.)
ASPARAGUS
A lady had been taking the full-stalk canned style asparagus that she pureed and she took 4 tablespoons in the morning and 4 tablespoons later in the day.
|
|
She did this for over a month.
She is on chemo pills for Stage 3 lung cancer in the pleural area and her cancer cell count went from 386 down to 125 as of this past week.
Her oncologist said she does not
need to see him for 3 months.
THE ARTICLE:
Several years ago,
I had a man seeking asparagus
for a friend who had cancer.
He gave me a photocopied copy
of an article, entitled,
..Asparagus for cancer' printed in Cancer News Journal, December 1979.
I will share it here,
|
just as it was shared with me:
'I am a biochemist,and have specialized in the relation of diet to health
for over 50 years..
Several years ago, I learned of the
discovery of Richard R. Vensal, D.D.S.
that asparagus might cure cancer..
Since then, I have worked
with him on his project.
We have accumulated a
number of favorable case histories.
Here are a few examples:
Case No.
1, A man with an almost hopeless case of Hodgkin's disease
(cancer of the lymph glands) who was completely incapacitated.
Within 1 year of starting the asparagus therapy, his doctors were unable to detect any signs of cancer, and he was back on a schedule of strenuous exercise..
Case No. 2, a successful businessman
68 years old who suffered from
cancer of the bladder for 16 years.
After years of medical treatments, including radiation without improvement, he went on asparagus.
Within 3 months,
examinations revealed that his bladder tumor had disappeared and
that his kidneys were normal.
Case No. 3, a man who had lung cancer.
On March 5th 1971, he was put on
the operating table where they found lung cancer so widely spread that it was inoperable.
The surgeon sewed him up and declared
his case hopeless.
On April 5th he heard about the asparagus therapy and immediately started taking it.
By August, x-ray pictures revealed that all signs of the cancer had disappeared..
He is back at his regular business routine.
Case No.
4, a woman who was troubled for a number of years with skin cancer.
She finally developed different skin cancers which were diagnosed by the acting specialist as advanced.
Within 3 months after starting on
asparagus, her skin specialist said
that her skin looked fine and no more skin lesions.
This woman reported that the asparagus therapy also cured her kidney disease, which started in 1949.
She had over 10 operations for kidney stones, and was receiving government disability payments for an inoperable, terminal, kidney condition.
She attributes the cure of this kidney trouble entirely to the asparagus.
I was not surprised at this result,
as ..The elements of materia medica',
edited in 1854 by a Professor at the University of Pennsylvania , stated that
asparagus was used as a popular remedy for kidney stones.
He even referred to experiments, in 1739,
on the power of asparagus in dissolving stones.
Note the dates!
We would have other case histories
but the medical establishment has
interfered with our obtaining some of the records.
I am therefore appealing to readers to spread this good news and help us to gather a large number of case histories that will overwhelm the medical skeptics about this unbelievably simple and natural remedy.
For the treatment, asparagus should be cooked before using, and therefore
canned asparagus is just as good as fresh.
I have corresponded with the two leading canners of asparagus, Giant and
Stokely, and I am satisfied that
these brands contain no pesticides or
preservatives.
Place the cooked asparagus in a blender
and liquefy to make a puree, and
store in the refrigerator.
Give the patient 4 full tablespoons
twice daily, morning and evening.
Patients usually show some improvement
in from 2-4 weeks.
It can be diluted with water and used
as a cold or hot drink.
This suggested dosage is based on
present experience, but certainly larger amounts can do no harm and may
be needed in some cases.
As a biochemist I am convinced of the old saying that …
what cures can prevent'.
Based on this theory, my wife and I have been using asparagus puree as
a beverage with our meals.
We take 2 tablespoons diluted in
water to suit our taste with breakfast
and with dinner.
I take mine hot and my wife prefers hers cold.
For years we have made it a practice
to have blood surveys taken as part
of our regular checkups.
The last blood survey, taken by a medical doctor who specializes in the
nutritional approach to health, showed substantial improvements in all
categories over the last one, and we can attribute these improvements to nothing but the asparagus drink…
As a biochemist, I have made an extensive study of all aspects of cancer,
and all of the proposed cures.
As a result, I am convinced that
asparagus fits in better with the
latest theories about cancer.
Asparagus contains a good supply of protein called histones, which are
believed to be active in controlling cell growth.
For that reason,
I believe asparagus can be said to
contain a substance that I call cell growth normalizer.
That accounts for its action on cancer
and in acting as a general body tonic.
In any event, regardless of theory, asparagus used as we suggest, is a
harmless substance.
The FDA cannot prevent you from using it and it may do you much good.
It has been reported by the US National Cancer Institute, that asparagus is the
highest tested food containing glutathione, which is considered
one of the body's most potent anticarcinogens and antioxidants.
The most unselfish act one can ever do is paying forward all the kindness one has received,
even to the most undeserved person.

As I said in the last blog, the Lord put revelation knowledge about men that I have found very helpful in understanding their need in time of crisis. So in prayer I ask the Holy Spirit if God put in man the desire to provide, protect and be priest…..what did He put in the heart of women. He quickly answered me…..
"To love, honor and obey." WOW….I have heard that before, but I have also learned, that what I think something means, is not always what God means, so I always what to know what does it mean? "To love un-conditionally regardless of circumstances (such as illness or poverty, separation–not in mental or physical abuse); to honor (I love this one because the Lord helped me to understand how the woman can set the stage in the home for the man to to be respected and honored, even when he is not doing everything the wife wants him to be–the more she respects who he is to God, treats him as 'number one' and prays for God's will in his life, the more she will see change–and prays that God will change her where needed, that she can be the best wife possible.); and third that big word 'obey'. In this case it means to obey the commandments of Jesus with her husband, not under his control, but led by his love and that of Jesus in their lives." This is especially important in times of crisis.
These things seemed so simple, but sure helped me to understand God's plan for us….and how we sometimes miss it. Trusting the Lord in all things…..helping each other through the tough times by leaning on, resting in the Father–His love, and security because of Jesus, and looking to the Holy Spirit for wisdom and comfort, is the path we must take. Nothing will separate us from the love of God.
May the Lord quicken (make alive) all that you need to face, survive and have victory in each situation and challenge you have; may He meet your needs according to His riches and Glory in Christ Jesus! Amen!

Men are GREAT! However, in times of disaster…..like losing a job, a sick child or wife, or parent….the heart of a man is truly challenged. Not being an ‘expert’ on men, I just want to share some insights the Lord gave me some time ago.
A friend asked me to go and pray for a friend of hers (that I did not know), who was very ill with cancer. At her home during prayer, the Holy Spirit told me to tell her to forgive her husband. It seemed he acted as though she was not sick. He would take her grocery shopping, etc. But refused to take her to the doctor or get her medications. She had been very active in prison ministry, by mail….a woman of God….who could not understand her husband or his attitude.
First, many women feel a ‘call’ in their heart to minister in some area, and their husbands do not. Their husbands support them and go on in their life, just appreciating their wives activities. Their reward with the Father is just as great as their wife. They are doing what God wants them to do. So if you are a wife who is nagging or praying for your husband to do more, be more in the church….stop it! Just see them…as God does…..as men of God, encouraging and praying that God’s Will, not yours, be done in their life……and pray for the thing that interests them, like golf, tennis, cars, etc. that God will be in those things with them.
Second, I asked the Lord, what He meant for her to forgive her husband. The Holy Spirit told me that her husband could not cope with her illness and ‘denial’ was his ‘out.’ Some men even leave their wives when disaster strikes because they cannot face them and the situation.
When I got home, I asked the Lord to explain. The Holy Spirit just loves to explain and talk about His Word in the Bible, or something like this situation. “Men are given in their DNA, a desire to provide, protect and be priest of the home.”
When anything happens that they cannot do that (and they are not aware of this) they can react in many ways…..denial, anger, withdrawal. It is very painful for them, especially since they think it is just the situation and do not understand the spiritual side. Feelings of failure, hopelessness, depression and even thoughts of suicide can take over.
Losing a job is condemning even when the economy is good. When it may involve something like losing a home, car or other family assets, it can be overwhelming. Only when we know, as men and women, who we are in Christ Jesus can we pull on God for the strength to go though the dark times.
Only as a man turns his needs to the Father, relys on Jesus and the Holy Spirit, can he transfer that position of provider, protector and priest to Them, and trust for a turning point, a break in the situation. It is the man’s job when he can do it (with help, reliance and guidance from Holy Spirit), but it then becomes THEIR job, when he can’t.
In times of disaster, a man can be the Hero in the family, just by stiring himself up in the Word with things like:
“There is now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walknot after the flesh, but after the Spirit.” “Greater is He in me, than He who is in the world.” “All things work together for good for those who love God, who are called for His purpose.” And, there are many more….
No matter what happens, the important thing is that your family stay together….that you have each other. And, the husband and father can make the family strong enough to endure, because of his stand, and his trust in God. We are in a war, and in war there are causalities….but for those who love Jesus it is a win-win situation because we receive eternal life and the Glory of God (His Grace–unmerited favor) can shine in us, at the worst of times.
It is not God trying or testing us……the thief comes to kill, rob and destroy……(what is there about that scripture we don’t understand?). It is evil in the world, the devil, and bad decisions that bring these trials–even if we didn’t make those decisions. The devil is evil; God is good….we must hang on to what is good….spiritual blessings in the worst of times! Men (as women) can transfer their hurt, humiliation and discouragement to the Lord; surrender those feelings to Him, and actually choose LIFE, choose to go on, and help theirr family to do the same. As a friend of mine used to say, “God has strong shoulders.”
AND, MEN, WE LOVE AND APPRECIATE YOU IN ALL SITUATIONS…..THANK YOU, LORD, FOR THE MEN IN OUR LIVES!

The move is out! Yes, I went to see it…..and left the theater smiling….the movie was very good! But, wait a minute…. I have a question! Where are the angels and demons in that movie? You will find them addressed and exposed in ANGELS AND DEMONS; HOLLYWOOD KNOWS THE DIFFERENCE.!
I chose not see the movie or read the book, The Da Vinci Code. Author of the book, Ron Brown had a hit, and I was devastated because I felt it was an ‘evil’ indictment of the truth contained in the Bible. I prayed that the Lord would protect those who did read the book or see the movie, would not be influenced.
One of my young adult grandsons went to see the Da Vinci Code , and his report back to me was, “What a bunch of junk! Ugh!!” I invited the same grandson to see the movie ANGELS AND DEMONS, the movie based on the book by Ron Brown, with me. I prayed about going, and had my own personal agenda for wanting to see the movie.
I thought it was a really good mystery, and was not ‘put off’ by the theme around the Catholic Church (since much of it was filmed in Rome, I assume the Catholic Church was OK with it??) I liked the movie…..my grandson thought it was just one level above OK. That was actually an endorsement on his part as young people now days see so many exciting movies, and so many awesome special effects….it takes a lot to get them specifically excited about any one film.
SO OK, HERE IS MY QUESTION…..WHERE ARE THE ANGELS AND DEMONS IN THE MOVIE? Anyone who does not believe in the devil and demons is not reading the Bible. It is pretty clear in Scripture who they are, what they do, and that they are real. Should we focus on that…..ABSOLUTELY NOT. But for believing Christians to be unaware of their place in this world leads to great deception. We should absolutely focus and be conscious of our relationship with Jesus, our Heavenly Father and the Holy Spirit so that we can address, in faith, and wisdom any evil situation that comes our way.
Not once in the movie do I recall the mention of the devil or demons. Angels were mentioned, because they were shown on the fronts of Churches, etc. in stone images. Was the devil in the movie……oh, yes…..there was real ugly evil being portrayed, and the battle was tough to say the least…..but never communicated verbally what they were fighting. Not at all like the excellent job Mel Gibson did in his movie THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST–where the devil and his demons were obvious.
This morning I heard Pat Robertson answer an email to the 700 Club, where a young lady stated that she read in her Bible about demons and yet she heard very little of it in the church…..were demons real. Pat said yes, and gave incidents he had experienced in India….but also warned her not to focus on those things but rather on the Lord! Good response!
We go through seasons in Church where we focus on healing, or angels, or prayer, or deliverance (the casting out of demons) one at a time. A few years ago there was a lot of talk in the church about deliverance. It got so out of hand in some places they were casting demons out of everything from chewing gum to house slippers. That is one reason the Pastors back away from deliverance teaching. Actually wouldn’t it be good if we taught and were aware of all the Bible all the time….not in just seasons of interest.
Like the young lady who sent in the email to the 700 Club, I asked the same question years ago. Only, I asked the Holy Spirit for the Truth. He led me to people and meetings where I could learn and know the Truth of His Word. That opened the door to helping many people to be delivered of sins, problems, obsessive behavior and illness, and so on–primarily Christians.
Knowing the need for knowledge I wrote a book of our experiences–ANGELS AND DEMONS; HOLLYWOOD KNOWS THE DIFFERENCE! It is not a hand-book on deliverance, just information to identify the battle, and examples both bad and good that we have dealt with. (There are many good books on deliverance in the book stores)
Why the sub-title HOLLYWOOD KNOWS THE DIFFERENCE, because the devil has no problem revealing and inspiring writers of horror films, supernatural phenomena, and stories of demons. The devil knows that it will de-sensitize young people to the truth. The devil knows church people will not go see the films, or create films on the truth of spiritual warfare. Demonic inspired films make the church look inept, powerless and weak. They do focus on evil and glorify their destructive wickedness–all adding to the deception in the world.
So, I encourage you to buy my book and get an interesting first hand look at God’s Truth and the devil’s deception. It is available as an e-book at the top of this page and in published book form by going to www.angelsdemonsbook.com
So is the movie, ANGELS AND DEMONS a fraud? Well, just a play on words…..yes, to me because I expected dialog and interchange between angels and demons. A fraud to others…. no….. if they just came to see a good movie.

There are rules in the supernatural that affect our lives daily, minute by minute. Hosea tells us we perish for lack of knowledge…..that is lack of knowledge of God’s ways.
Jesus said in the parable of the sower, “If you receive the Word and do not understand it, the devil will steal it.” That’s pretty powerful! The important bottom line is to know and understand who God is, what is His plan and purpose. Who are we in Christ….how does that compute in today’s ‘perfect storm’?
More than any time in history people are seeking spiritual answers, and this is a great time to build the Kingdom on God on earth, with Jesus as King, here on earth. Love is the basis of His message, and we can all communicate that to those around us.
However, the more we know and ‘understand’ the more capable we will be….the more we can overcome in our own lives. We must believe God is….and He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him! Let’s be diligent! Let’s be passionate! Jesus is awesome, let us let Him shine in our lives!
