Addiction is a Demon

I’ve been reading “National Geographic” magazine since I was a kid. I’ve put up with the unrelenting journalistic bowing to the evolutionary hypothesis and constant pontifical posturing on the evils of humans causing global warming. Most articles are well-written and the photos of our physical world are spectacular. But a recent addition caught my attention […]

Inherited Demons

I remember where I was the moment I heard that the self-proclaimed, “King of Pop,” Michael Jackson, was dead. I was in the fitness room of a Nairobi, Kenya hotel, working out, before boarding a plane to Tanzania where I’d climb the tallest mountain in Africa, 20,000 foot Kilimanjaro. I wasn’t really surprised to hear

Days of Noah

It wasn’t exactly a flood of biblical proportions, but to Florida victims of hurricane Irma, it sure felt like it. Some, whose homes and possessions were inundated with water, like those victims of hurricane Harvey in Houston, must have felt a little like Noah without an ark. The bright side to this tragedy was the evidence

Jezebel and Chicomecoatl

There are times when I am ministering that the Lord gives me a word which makes all the difference in someone’s deliverance. I was doing a phone Encounter last week when such a word came: “Chicomecoatl.” The woman receiving prayer had no idea what I was talking about, but the demons did. They manifested immediately

REAL Spiritual Warfare

Few ministries get the inquiries that we do. Some questions we receive are inciteful, others theologically challenging, and many heart-wrenching. Recently, a mother named Jill sent me an email saying, “My only child shot herself four years ago. Ever since I’ve been attacked by demons. I am a saved Christian but pray for God’s help

America Gone Crazy

Is the body politic of America losing its mind? Just weeks ago, a statue was nothing more than a relic of recognition related to some long-forgotten individual. Now, such symbols are flashpoints of cultural divide. Last month, Donald Trump was our controversial new twitter President. Now, TV pundits and psychiatrists are weighing in on his

Artificial Intelligence

Don’t worry about being hit on the highway by a driverless automobile. Something worse this way comes. The race is on to produce artificial intelligence, AI for short. Silicon Valley and America’s tech industry are feverishly working to come up with machines approximating human intelligence. But more than that, scientists want to devise a Hal-Space-Odyssey-like

Spiritual Gifts

I’m often asked about spiritual gifts. Most want a simple answer. There isn’t one. Of course, there are the spiritual gifts that Paul mentions in 1 Corinthians chapter 12. These get the most focus, especially from Pentecostals. But there are other spiritual gifts. Romans 12:6 speaks of spiritual gifts, but places them in a broader

Incredulity

“Incredulity” is one of those impressive words that carries more weight than its somewhat obscure meaning. It’s defined as the unwillingness to believe something, or more extremely, the willful refusal to accept the truth. I assert that this state of mind is one of the biggest problems facing evangelical Christians. For the most part, born

Psychiatry and Possession

. I am indebted to my good friend, Pastor Steve Strader, in Lakeland Florida, for passing on a fascinating new report entitled “Psychiatrist Admits Mental Illness is Caused by Demonic Possession.” (The full account can be found at: https://yournewswire.com/psychiatrist-admits-mental-illness-is-caused-by-demonic-possession/). Richard Gallagher, board-certified psychiatrist and professor of clinical psychiatry at New York Medical College, admits to
