In these deliberate studies of principalities and powers, 3 00:00:14.780 --> 00:00:19.370 we will be exposing the occult, revealing knowledge of the doctrines, words, 4 00:00:19.380 --> 00:00:23.450 rites, eulogies, phrases, and definitions that demon worshippers use. 5 00:00:23.820 --> 00:00:27.810 The only intelligent way to interpret our times is to present a biblical 6 00:00:27.820 --> 00:00:32.350 interpretation. Jesus prophesied that his church shall prevail. 7 00:00:32.800 --> 00:00:38.260 In Matthew 16, verse 18, he said, Upon this rock I will build my church, 8 00:00:38.270 --> 00:00:41.560 and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. 9 00:00:41.850 --> 00:00:46.480 Today the church must rise up to the greatest action of its entire history. 10 00:00:54.280 --> 00:00:59.850 May I welcome you to our exciting class relative to principalities and powers. 11 00:01:01.860 --> 00:01:07.280 One would like to just eat peaches all the time, and that would be nice, of course. 12 00:01:07.700 --> 00:01:12.410 And one would like to tell very nice and beautiful stories all the time. 13 00:01:12.480 --> 00:01:17.730 And that would be nice too. But since the Garden of Eden, life is a reality. 14 00:01:19.250 --> 00:01:21.280 Mankind rebelled against God. 15 00:01:21.670 --> 00:01:26.940 And all the forces of evil in this world are related to man's rebellion against God. 16 00:01:27.070 --> 00:01:30.940 When man is not in rebellion against God, the forces of evil fall down flat. 17 00:01:31.050 --> 00:01:36.500 They are defeated. And so we must, in order to bring people to God, 18 00:01:36.520 --> 00:01:38.910 We must at least warn them and say, now listen, 19 00:01:38.920 --> 00:01:41.710 there is a negative force in the world, but there's a powerful force, 20 00:01:41.720 --> 00:01:45.130 a positive force more powerful than the negative force. 21 00:01:45.160 --> 00:01:50.670 And it's not being real honest to say you go through life on a bed of roses because 22 00:01:50.680 --> 00:01:55.210 it is not true. And when you've lived in many countries of the world like I have, 23 00:01:55.220 --> 00:01:58.320 and you see people burdened down by demonology. 24 00:01:58.330 --> 00:02:03.880 it raises up something within you saying wait a minute man wasn't created to be like 25 00:02:03.890 --> 00:02:08.700 this that man must be set free and then when you read the word of god god wants to 26 00:02:08.710 --> 00:02:13.300 set them free aren't you glad for that may i bless you father bless these that study 27 00:02:13.310 --> 00:02:18.000 the word and let the word come alive and let it be strong and powerful and we 28 00:02:18.010 --> 00:02:23.140 believe you for that in christ's name amen in lesson 11 29 00:02:23.150 --> 00:02:29.050 uh it's studying the The significance of black magic 30 00:02:29.060 --> 00:02:33.670 and white magic. We hear so much about both of them. 31 00:02:33.680 --> 00:02:35.730 We will explain the difference between the two. 32 00:02:36.470 --> 00:02:40.560 In the book of Deuteronomy, chapter 18, verse 10, it says, 33 00:02:40.610 --> 00:02:45.180 There shall not be found among you anyone that maketh his son or his daughter to 34 00:02:45.190 --> 00:02:46.420 pass through the fire. 35 00:02:47.450 --> 00:02:51.480 In heathen religions, that's still a very popular situation. 36 00:02:51.490 --> 00:02:56.530 When you have power over fire, then, of course, you have supreme power. 37 00:02:56.540 --> 00:03:00.930 Power. He says that there shall not be found among you anyone that useth divination 38 00:03:00.940 --> 00:03:06.780 of any kind, nor there shall be anyone who is an observer of the 39 00:03:06.790 --> 00:03:12.620 times, which will take you into the realm of astrology, or who is an enchanter, 40 00:03:13.610 --> 00:03:14.780 a witch, 41 00:03:15.490 --> 00:03:19.720 or who is a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, 42 00:03:19.810 --> 00:03:25.480 or a wizard, or a necromancer. Now, this was given to God's people. 43 00:03:26.250 --> 00:03:29.300 And he said God's people shall not have these things. 44 00:03:29.310 --> 00:03:33.750 The heathen have them, but God's people shall not have these things. 45 00:03:33.980 --> 00:03:38.470 Now, in our country today, there are multiplied thousands of these. 46 00:03:38.760 --> 00:03:44.390 We understand through a notice in a magazine that one great city, 47 00:03:44.460 --> 00:03:49.490 Philadelphia, has at least 3 ,000 registered witches in one city. 48 00:03:49.500 --> 00:03:54.410 And so our country today is going through a spiritual situation. 49 00:03:54.590 --> 00:03:56.360 that you and I need to be aware of, 50 00:03:57.390 --> 00:04:00.060 you and I need to be willing to do something about it. 51 00:04:00.350 --> 00:04:02.440 The devil wishes to divide up his works. 52 00:04:04.230 --> 00:04:05.230 Excuse me. 53 00:04:05.900 --> 00:04:09.870 He wishes to divide them up in many fashions and under diverse names. 54 00:04:10.530 --> 00:04:12.700 And so we must know the tricks of the devil. 55 00:04:13.430 --> 00:04:17.580 We're asked oftentimes, what's the difference between black magic and white magic? 56 00:04:18.430 --> 00:04:21.520 The word magic is from the Hebrew word heret. 57 00:04:22.030 --> 00:04:27.020 It means to engrave. It has to do with a drawing of magical lines or magical 58 00:04:27.030 --> 00:04:28.030 circles. 59 00:04:29.020 --> 00:04:34.130 In white magic, it is presumed to only bless and help humanity. 60 00:04:34.140 --> 00:04:35.270 That's what they call it. 61 00:04:35.940 --> 00:04:40.550 It does not become involved in hurting people or cursing people, only in blessing. 62 00:04:41.040 --> 00:04:44.850 Now, I have to be real honest with you. I don't know that there is any white magic. 63 00:04:45.080 --> 00:04:49.950 And I think the one that has the ability to bless also curses enemies. 64 00:04:51.560 --> 00:04:55.430 In black magic, it is presumed to be deadly medicine, 65 00:04:55.440 --> 00:05:00.670 that it deals in all kinds of curses. an angry demon activity. 66 00:05:00.920 --> 00:05:04.030 Both black and white magic claim supernatural powers. 67 00:05:04.040 --> 00:05:05.970 That's the crucial part of this. 68 00:05:06.260 --> 00:05:10.550 And these powers they claim come from the spirit world or the nether world. 69 00:05:10.980 --> 00:05:16.050 The difference is that black magic is always malevolent, 70 00:05:16.060 --> 00:05:20.670 angry and mean and killing. It curses, kills and destroys. 71 00:05:20.860 --> 00:05:26.510 It calls evil spirits into action against an enemy to destroy him or hurt him. 72 00:05:27.050 --> 00:05:32.270 Now the claims in white magic is that it is a 73 00:05:32.280 --> 00:05:36.930 benevolent power which only assists and helps and blesses. 74 00:05:37.440 --> 00:05:42.770 It'll help you find lost property or heal a sick person or keep back infernal powers 75 00:05:42.780 --> 00:05:44.210 which wish to destroy you. 76 00:05:46.600 --> 00:05:51.610 I would prefer to say that anything that comes from the devil is wrong. 77 00:05:52.110 --> 00:05:54.360 It can be purple or pink or whatever. 78 00:05:56.300 --> 00:06:00.510 The art of voodoo claims to operate in both black and white magic. 79 00:06:00.540 --> 00:06:03.730 We've lived with these kind of people in remote parts of the earth. 80 00:06:04.430 --> 00:06:09.840 And they carry different names for that which they call the black magic, 81 00:06:09.850 --> 00:06:14.280 the most evil, and the white magic, which is supposed to be kind and good. 82 00:06:16.420 --> 00:06:22.010 We're very often asked that, is incense burning a powerful thing in relating to 83 00:06:22.020 --> 00:06:23.470 these black or white magic? 84 00:06:24.210 --> 00:06:27.520 We've discovered that all magic, whether black or white, 85 00:06:28.150 --> 00:06:31.440 always practices some form of incense burnings. 86 00:06:31.800 --> 00:06:32.800 Always. 87 00:06:33.970 --> 00:06:35.180 In Brazil, 88 00:06:35.870 --> 00:06:37.640 we discovered that 89 00:06:38.520 --> 00:06:43.870 In their black and white magic, they smoke the cigar. 90 00:06:45.550 --> 00:06:47.940 When the witch is under the power of her spirit, 91 00:06:48.400 --> 00:06:50.850 before it can make a communication possible, 92 00:06:50.860 --> 00:06:55.530 it blows that smoke out of there and great big puffs and puffs through a cigar. 93 00:06:55.620 --> 00:06:58.010 We have a number of pictures of this, by the way. 94 00:06:58.020 --> 00:07:01.190 I'm showing you how they, under the spell of the devil, 95 00:07:01.240 --> 00:07:03.390 there's the blowing of the smoke. 96 00:07:04.280 --> 00:07:07.410 Not an incense burning, but a cigar burning. 97 00:07:08.300 --> 00:07:13.070 Our fetish is powerful. Both black and white magic use many kinds of religious 98 00:07:13.080 --> 00:07:17.300 paraphernalia. And this paraphernalia is to show their power. 99 00:07:17.310 --> 00:07:18.440 It's to reveal their power. 100 00:07:18.680 --> 00:07:22.510 It can be a doll with pins stuck in it to curse an individual. 101 00:07:22.640 --> 00:07:26.470 Or it can be some kind of a little charm that you put around your arm, 102 00:07:26.480 --> 00:07:29.450 around your neck, and your hair or some way. 103 00:07:29.460 --> 00:07:32.490 But they all use some kind of fetish. 104 00:07:33.050 --> 00:07:36.440 And those fetishes are supposed to do remarkable things. 105 00:07:36.450 --> 00:07:37.840 I do not believe. 106 00:07:38.700 --> 00:07:40.710 These things can do anything at all. 107 00:07:40.720 --> 00:07:44.450 They're inanimate, they're dead, and they cannot do it. 108 00:07:44.460 --> 00:07:49.290 But I believe that they can call upon a spirit, and that spirit will do this thing. 109 00:07:49.520 --> 00:07:54.330 But the doll will do nothing, but the devil behind the doll can do very unusual 110 00:07:54.340 --> 00:07:57.110 things. The devil does have power to do things. 111 00:07:57.120 --> 00:07:58.510 If you know it, say amen. 112 00:07:59.570 --> 00:08:04.620 As far as God is concerned, all supernatural activity outside His divine operation 113 00:08:04.630 --> 00:08:07.780 comes from one source, and that's demonic. 114 00:08:08.330 --> 00:08:12.180 There is no neutral source. It's either divine or devilish. 115 00:08:12.790 --> 00:08:17.840 It is our going to the devil for information that disturbs God. 116 00:08:18.070 --> 00:08:20.520 And I don't know why in the world people want to do it. 117 00:08:20.870 --> 00:08:24.760 Satan demands worship of those through whom he manifests himself. 118 00:08:24.950 --> 00:08:28.600 So if you come and ask a courtesy or kindness of him, he wants worship. 119 00:08:28.960 --> 00:08:32.170 If you want to know what's going to happen tomorrow, he says, bend your knee then. 120 00:08:33.150 --> 00:08:36.000 You see, whatever information you want, 121 00:08:36.050 --> 00:08:37.980 am I going to get the right kind of a husband? 122 00:08:37.990 --> 00:08:39.260 Am I going to get the right kind of a wife? 123 00:08:39.270 --> 00:08:43.940 He says, bend your knee. And so the thing that he wants more than anything else is 124 00:08:43.950 --> 00:08:48.480 for you to pour your spirit out to him. He wants you to serve him. 125 00:08:49.000 --> 00:08:54.050 All magic claims the power of working wonders beyond the ordinary powers of a human, 126 00:08:54.060 --> 00:08:59.390 of a human person. Whether in a domestic situation or a scientific operation or 127 00:08:59.400 --> 00:09:01.970 whatever it might be, all of them. 128 00:09:02.130 --> 00:09:06.200 that have powers beyond the powers of an ordinary person. 129 00:09:07.110 --> 00:09:10.920 It reverts back to a condition that we call magic. 130 00:09:11.090 --> 00:09:16.530 Both white and black magic makes claims of supernatural strengths 131 00:09:16.540 --> 00:09:22.210 and either by a celestial force or by an infernal 132 00:09:22.220 --> 00:09:27.590 agency. Some of them claim to have white angels and some claim to have evil spirits 133 00:09:27.600 --> 00:09:29.010 that are working with them. 134 00:09:29.020 --> 00:09:34.830 Both systems of demonism have taken their origin in early human history. 135 00:09:34.860 --> 00:09:38.070 They are not new. They don't just belong to this time. 136 00:09:38.100 --> 00:09:41.630 The Bible tells you about every empire, Babylonian empire. 137 00:09:41.640 --> 00:09:43.670 They had all this group standing around the king. 138 00:09:43.680 --> 00:09:47.290 When Moses was in Egypt, they had all this group standing around the king. 139 00:09:47.340 --> 00:09:51.710 It has never, never ceased to be in great empires. 140 00:09:51.720 --> 00:09:55.510 These people were standing there ready to deceive their monarchs. 141 00:09:55.520 --> 00:09:59.770 The devil always starts at the top. He always destroys from the top. 142 00:10:01.060 --> 00:10:05.010 In this country, he'd like to destroy Washington first and then sweep across the 143 00:10:05.020 --> 00:10:09.250 land. And we need to pray for our capital city that God would get rid of the witches 144 00:10:09.260 --> 00:10:11.870 and the soothsayers and the fortune tellers. 145 00:10:11.880 --> 00:10:14.650 They don't know a thing. They're a bunch of liars. 146 00:10:17.150 --> 00:10:20.220 So as far as God is concerned, this thing is all evil. 147 00:10:20.230 --> 00:10:23.380 It does not belong to him. It has no relationship to him at all. 148 00:10:23.610 --> 00:10:27.840 And when they make these powers that are outside of God, 149 00:10:27.870 --> 00:10:30.320 then God says that's worship. 150 00:10:33.210 --> 00:10:35.460 worshiped other gods other than himself. 151 00:10:35.570 --> 00:10:41.400 There are multitudes of accounts of the use of the netherworld magic or demon 152 00:10:41.410 --> 00:10:42.820 power in the Old Testament. 153 00:10:42.830 --> 00:10:48.100 It is condemned by the prophets of God, and you find that in your lesson four, 154 00:10:48.110 --> 00:10:50.820 one right after the other, where God condemned it. 155 00:10:50.830 --> 00:10:55.700 In the New Testament, there are strong words regarding this situation that you call 156 00:10:55.710 --> 00:11:00.520 magic. In Acts 13 and 10, it says, and said, 157 00:11:00.530 --> 00:11:05.020 O full of subtlety and all mischief, This is Paul talking to this man. 158 00:11:05.050 --> 00:11:08.950 Thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, 159 00:11:09.480 --> 00:11:14.050 wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord. 160 00:11:14.240 --> 00:11:17.770 Now that is a verse worth studying. 161 00:11:19.270 --> 00:11:23.980 What do the evil things do? What do the magicians do? 162 00:11:24.310 --> 00:11:27.260 What do the soothsayers do? What does spiritism do? 163 00:11:27.290 --> 00:11:30.400 What's its ministry? Look what Paul said here. 164 00:11:30.450 --> 00:11:34.760 It says your full subtlety, you know. You're never right. 165 00:11:34.770 --> 00:11:36.700 You're never correct. You're never honest about it. 166 00:11:36.710 --> 00:11:40.240 You're deceiving all the way. And he says, you're full of mischief. 167 00:11:40.370 --> 00:11:43.500 I've never known a demon power that wasn't full of bad stuff. 168 00:11:43.510 --> 00:11:47.840 Never known it in my life. Always, always full of mischief. 169 00:11:47.850 --> 00:11:51.040 And he said, you're a child of the devil. 170 00:11:51.450 --> 00:11:54.900 Now, he was talking to a man born of a woman. 171 00:11:55.190 --> 00:11:58.000 But he said, spiritually, you're a child of the devil. 172 00:11:58.330 --> 00:12:00.680 Now, that's pretty strong language, isn't it? 173 00:12:00.910 --> 00:12:03.980 And he says, you are the enemy of all righteousness. 174 00:12:04.620 --> 00:12:10.570 Now this means that you cannot call any form of Satanism and any form of 175 00:12:10.580 --> 00:12:15.460 spiritism and any form of sorcery, you can't call it good. 176 00:12:15.470 --> 00:12:16.900 You don't need a calling of white. 177 00:12:16.910 --> 00:12:21.980 You can't call it good because God has said that it is an enemy of all 178 00:12:21.990 --> 00:12:27.370 righteousness. And says, would you not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord? 179 00:12:27.380 --> 00:12:29.290 So it gets people on the wrong track. 180 00:12:30.070 --> 00:12:34.920 The very first commandment commands us that we should serve the Lord only. 181 00:12:34.930 --> 00:12:36.540 Him only shall you serve. 182 00:12:36.770 --> 00:12:40.340 The second commandment says you shall not make unto thee any grieve an image. 183 00:12:40.350 --> 00:12:42.640 Those are the two of the greatest commandments. 184 00:12:43.030 --> 00:12:46.600 The two greatest commandments that you should not serve Satan, 185 00:12:46.610 --> 00:12:51.060 you should not serve demons, and that you should not make any kind of an image of 186 00:12:51.070 --> 00:12:53.560 them to bow down to them and to worship them. 187 00:12:53.570 --> 00:12:56.340 And this is exactly what the devil wants the world to do. 188 00:12:56.350 --> 00:13:00.060 And what... Millions and millions of people are doing this very night. 189 00:13:00.070 --> 00:13:02.020 It's not yesterday and a hundred years ago. 190 00:13:02.030 --> 00:13:03.440 They're doing it right now. 191 00:13:03.510 --> 00:13:08.220 And sad to tell you, many are doing it in this country in which you and I live this 192 00:13:08.230 --> 00:13:11.380 very moment. They have given themselves over to demon power, 193 00:13:11.390 --> 00:13:13.900 and they are serving the devil in this way. 194 00:13:14.930 --> 00:13:18.680 In Galatians chapter 5 and verse 20, 195 00:13:18.690 --> 00:13:23.940 it is real interesting how the apostle Paul places certain situations. 196 00:13:24.450 --> 00:13:29.510 He says, now there is... things that god against god is against idolatry the worship 197 00:13:29.520 --> 00:13:35.090 of idols he is against witchcraft all forms of witchcraft and he is against 198 00:13:35.100 --> 00:13:40.510 hatred you see when you have a bad spirit in you you're loaning yourself to the 199 00:13:40.520 --> 00:13:41.520 devil 200 00:13:41.670 --> 00:13:47.580 hatred is not of god and there is no righteous hatred there 201 00:13:47.590 --> 00:13:53.180 is righteous forgiveness but there is no righteous hatred if you hate somebody 202 00:13:53.190 --> 00:13:54.780 you're on the devil's side 203 00:13:55.360 --> 00:14:01.250 you're still here and really Hatred can become a spirit within 204 00:14:01.260 --> 00:14:04.770 you until not only will you hate that one, but it helps you to hate, 205 00:14:04.780 --> 00:14:08.470 you know, others. You just find new avenues of hate. 206 00:14:09.430 --> 00:14:11.020 Hatred is not of God. 207 00:14:11.090 --> 00:14:16.020 And Jesus says that the depth of it is murder. 208 00:14:16.150 --> 00:14:20.420 That when you hate with all your being that you have killed, that you have murdered. 209 00:14:20.430 --> 00:14:23.980 And so, and it's equal to witchcraft and idolatry. 210 00:14:25.280 --> 00:14:28.130 And then he says variance and emulation. 211 00:14:28.180 --> 00:14:33.470 and wrath and strife and seditions and heresies. 212 00:14:33.480 --> 00:14:37.530 He says this whole conglomeration of emotional 213 00:14:37.800 --> 00:14:42.870 problems have to do with the devil. 214 00:14:42.880 --> 00:14:45.930 So when we come against these things, we must say, God, 215 00:14:45.940 --> 00:14:50.310 help us to set that person free and free from all of these things that they'll have 216 00:14:50.320 --> 00:14:51.950 no relationship with them whatsoever. 217 00:14:52.780 --> 00:14:54.570 In the Acts chapter 8, 218 00:14:55.660 --> 00:14:57.950 Beginning in verse 9, it's a long reading. 219 00:14:57.960 --> 00:15:02.350 You can read it out of class. You find a person there called Philip. 220 00:15:02.800 --> 00:15:07.470 And Philip was elected to be a deacon in the church. 221 00:15:08.020 --> 00:15:13.190 God decided he was more than a deacon, so God made him an evangelist. 222 00:15:13.440 --> 00:15:15.830 You know, sometimes man can make you one thing, 223 00:15:15.840 --> 00:15:18.970 and then God will make you something else. 224 00:15:20.210 --> 00:15:23.340 And get ready for that. Man can say, oh, you can do this. 225 00:15:23.350 --> 00:15:25.400 And God says, oh, no, you can do something better than that. 226 00:15:25.480 --> 00:15:28.770 And it's always good to do what the Lord wants us to do. 227 00:15:28.900 --> 00:15:32.070 And sometimes men don't know the potential within us. 228 00:15:32.080 --> 00:15:37.390 Only God knows that. So it says that Philip found in Samaria one called Simon. 229 00:15:37.680 --> 00:15:42.290 And he was a famous magician known as Simon Magus. 230 00:15:42.300 --> 00:15:43.670 That means Simon the Great. 231 00:15:43.900 --> 00:15:47.090 Who, while having great power with the people, 232 00:15:47.100 --> 00:15:51.890 it is not said to have been able to work wonders, you see. 233 00:15:52.060 --> 00:15:56.590 And this man had to be dealt with. had to be dealt with. 234 00:15:56.600 --> 00:16:01.770 And God's servant came and dealt with that man and the power of God and destroyed 235 00:16:01.780 --> 00:16:05.650 the thing that he thought that he was supposed to do. 236 00:16:05.760 --> 00:16:09.410 And you can do it. I can do it. A deacon can do it. 237 00:16:09.420 --> 00:16:11.670 An evangelist can do it. Simon Peter can do it. 238 00:16:11.960 --> 00:16:14.130 Whoever we are in the work of the Lord, 239 00:16:14.140 --> 00:16:17.730 we have the strength and the power and authority to set people free. 240 00:16:17.780 --> 00:16:23.630 And when these people set themselves up as one who having great power, they don't. 241 00:16:23.820 --> 00:16:25.050 They are lying. 242 00:16:25.710 --> 00:16:28.130 We had a woman to come in this building here, 243 00:16:28.140 --> 00:16:33.110 and she came from a way out in the western states to be prayed for. 244 00:16:33.540 --> 00:16:37.670 And when I started to pray for her, the spirit in a man's voice spoke out of her 245 00:16:37.680 --> 00:16:41.180 throat and said, now, I know you. 246 00:16:42.030 --> 00:16:44.220 And I said, yeah, I don't doubt that. 247 00:16:44.870 --> 00:16:49.220 Says, I was in Manila when you cast that spirit out of that girl. 248 00:16:49.670 --> 00:16:52.360 And says, I want to tell you I'm stronger than that spirit, 249 00:16:52.370 --> 00:16:53.940 and you cannot cast me out. 250 00:16:55.430 --> 00:16:58.580 So I said, you're a liar, and you've got to come out right now. 251 00:16:59.130 --> 00:17:00.130 You see, 252 00:17:00.650 --> 00:17:04.840 was that spirit there? In the spirit world, you can be wherever you think. 253 00:17:05.200 --> 00:17:08.730 You're there by thought, and you can be any place by thought. 254 00:17:08.740 --> 00:17:10.930 That's the way God is. That's the way Christ is. 255 00:17:10.940 --> 00:17:12.370 That's the way the angels are. 256 00:17:12.380 --> 00:17:16.890 That's the way the immortal persons are after they leave this body. 257 00:17:16.900 --> 00:17:18.610 They're wherever they think and want to be. 258 00:17:18.620 --> 00:17:22.640 He could have been there. But he lied in saying that he was the stronger. 259 00:17:22.990 --> 00:17:27.060 Because the spirit that was cast out of that girl in the Philippines was a 260 00:17:27.070 --> 00:17:31.420 principal, a principality. He was over the whole of that area there. 261 00:17:31.590 --> 00:17:32.940 You say, how do you know? 262 00:17:32.950 --> 00:17:37.500 Because that area had never had a revival in its history since the beginning of the 263 00:17:37.510 --> 00:17:39.440 world. Had never had a revival. 264 00:17:39.470 --> 00:17:43.800 Until 300 years ago, it had been pagan and worshipping of idols. 265 00:17:43.810 --> 00:17:48.800 And when the Roman Catholics came to the islands and began to teach about the 266 00:17:48.810 --> 00:17:52.260 Christianity, then... Many of them became Catholics. 267 00:17:52.330 --> 00:17:53.560 Some of them became both. 268 00:17:53.570 --> 00:17:58.840 They still had the animist religions and were headhunters and ate human flesh, 269 00:17:58.850 --> 00:18:02.260 and yet they called themselves Catholics. 270 00:18:03.240 --> 00:18:05.750 But they stayed that way until Dewey came. 271 00:18:05.880 --> 00:18:09.270 And when Dewey came with the American forces and threw the Spanish out, 272 00:18:09.340 --> 00:18:14.390 then the government asked for some missionaries, and mostly Methodists went. 273 00:18:14.480 --> 00:18:18.750 And they established schools because only about 15 % of the total population could 274 00:18:18.760 --> 00:18:22.230 read and write. And so they established schools all over the country. 275 00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:26.940 But they had never had a revival in the history of the nation. 276 00:18:27.070 --> 00:18:31.180 And when that girl was set free by the power of God, 277 00:18:31.310 --> 00:18:35.940 and 120 people, doctors and attorneys and 278 00:18:35.950 --> 00:18:41.600 university professors and so forth, saw the girl set free in the news media of the 279 00:18:41.610 --> 00:18:45.670 world, the head doctor there, Dr. Laura, took me in his car, 280 00:18:45.860 --> 00:18:49.990 rushed me to the great city hall, which is a building about four stories high and 281 00:18:50.000 --> 00:18:53.750 about two city blocks long, and rushed me into the mayor's office. 282 00:18:53.760 --> 00:18:56.650 And the first thing he said was, Mayor, the devil is dead. 283 00:18:57.710 --> 00:19:02.120 And I looked at the mayor and I said, now, mayor, he might be a good doctor, 284 00:19:02.130 --> 00:19:03.520 but he's not a good theologian. 285 00:19:04.250 --> 00:19:07.000 I'm sure of that. I said, the devil is not dead. 286 00:19:07.190 --> 00:19:08.940 I said, that girl is healed. 287 00:19:09.580 --> 00:19:11.950 That mayor put his arms around me and said, 288 00:19:11.960 --> 00:19:14.530 you can have anything you want in this city. 289 00:19:14.540 --> 00:19:18.250 You name it and you can have it. I want you to have anything you want. 290 00:19:18.260 --> 00:19:24.110 And I said, well, what I want is an opportunity across the street from the 291 00:19:24.120 --> 00:19:28.010 city hall to preach out in the open air. He says, you can have it. 292 00:19:28.020 --> 00:19:33.590 And in six weeks of revival meeting, we saw 150 ,000 people saved. 293 00:19:35.170 --> 00:19:39.860 We saw things happen that you couldn't hardly believe to be possible. 294 00:19:39.920 --> 00:19:43.970 It got to where humans almost had nothing to do with it at all. 295 00:19:43.980 --> 00:19:46.450 It was just God working, many times all by himself. 296 00:19:47.540 --> 00:19:51.790 A young dentist found the Lord and got so excited he didn't know what to do. 297 00:19:52.000 --> 00:19:56.630 And he was coming from his office across to the meeting place and passed by a 298 00:19:56.640 --> 00:20:00.350 Catholic church. And there was a beggar that everybody knew. 299 00:20:00.700 --> 00:20:04.530 He'd sat by that door of the Catholic church for many, many years, 300 00:20:04.540 --> 00:20:07.630 and he could not walk. He was lame. 301 00:20:08.810 --> 00:20:11.800 Young dentist looked upon him and said, Beggar, you tired begging? 302 00:20:11.810 --> 00:20:14.020 He said, Yes. He said, You want to be healed? 303 00:20:14.030 --> 00:20:16.080 Yes. Well, I'll take you where you can be healed. 304 00:20:16.090 --> 00:20:20.040 He reached down, a beautiful, clean dentist, 305 00:20:20.050 --> 00:20:25.460 reached down and put that beggar's arm around his neck and put his arm up under him 306 00:20:25.470 --> 00:20:30.140 like this and pulled him up off the ground and walked him for about three city 307 00:20:30.150 --> 00:20:35.480 blocks and his feet dangling and his toes touching the cement and 308 00:20:35.490 --> 00:20:39.540 carried him in his arms. for about three city blocks. 309 00:20:39.590 --> 00:20:43.540 All the way, he described the miracles that he had seen every night with his own 310 00:20:43.550 --> 00:20:48.120 eyes. Describe them. When they got to the land where we were having the great 311 00:20:48.130 --> 00:20:51.680 revival meeting, and he started to let him down to the earth, 312 00:20:51.910 --> 00:20:56.100 when that beggar's feet touched the earth, strength hit them. 313 00:20:56.250 --> 00:20:58.220 And he hit the earth running. 314 00:20:59.100 --> 00:21:03.240 Now, this was around 530 to 6 o 'clock. 315 00:21:03.250 --> 00:21:08.040 And there was already 10 or 12 or 15 ,000 people there because we had up to 14, 316 00:21:08.050 --> 00:21:10.720 15, 60 ,000 in the meetings. 317 00:21:11.250 --> 00:21:15.100 But we had very beautiful discipline. We had aisles. 318 00:21:15.110 --> 00:21:18.320 We could only seat so many in certain spots, and we'd put a rope around them. 319 00:21:18.330 --> 00:21:23.340 And so we knew how many were there because we segregated them and put them in 320 00:21:23.350 --> 00:21:25.980 groups. And they went running through the groups, 321 00:21:25.990 --> 00:21:30.280 and the dentist was right after the beggar, and he was saying, I'm healed, 322 00:21:30.290 --> 00:21:34.020 I'm healed. And the dentist was saying, and he is the beggar of Keapo Church. 323 00:21:34.250 --> 00:21:37.280 And he was telling who he was, and he was saying he was healed. 324 00:21:37.290 --> 00:21:40.620 And when I finally got to church, I thought I was on time, 325 00:21:40.630 --> 00:21:44.660 but I was about an hour late, because when I got to church, 326 00:21:44.670 --> 00:21:48.380 somebody turned on the PA system, and the dentist and the beggar were up there doing 327 00:21:48.390 --> 00:21:49.390 all the talking. 328 00:21:50.950 --> 00:21:51.950 Yeah. 329 00:21:55.490 --> 00:21:58.220 The dentist was saying, I'd seen this beggar many times, 330 00:21:58.230 --> 00:22:02.120 and many of you have, sitting at the door of the Chiappo church begging, and says, 331 00:22:02.130 --> 00:22:04.860 I brought him here, and I didn't pray for him. 332 00:22:04.870 --> 00:22:07.100 I went to let him down to the earth, and when I did, 333 00:22:07.110 --> 00:22:08.920 the power of the Lord came upon him. 334 00:22:09.130 --> 00:22:13.860 Now, when God moves in a sovereign way, like that, brother, 335 00:22:13.870 --> 00:22:17.560 you're close to heaven, and you're close to the Bible, 336 00:22:17.570 --> 00:22:20.980 and you're close to reality, and you want me to tell you something? 337 00:22:21.070 --> 00:22:24.940 We are just entering the greatest moment in the history of the Christian church. 338 00:22:25.080 --> 00:22:29.150 that the gifts of the Spirit are going to manifest themselves tremendously. 339 00:22:29.500 --> 00:22:33.090 And you that are sitting here are going to see things that you never dreamed that 340 00:22:33.100 --> 00:22:36.490 you would see. All I'm asking you to do is to have a pure heart inside. 341 00:22:36.580 --> 00:22:41.230 God cannot bless uncleanness. And I'm asking you to have a clean spirit inside. 342 00:22:41.240 --> 00:22:42.970 I'm asking you to love the Bible. 343 00:22:43.120 --> 00:22:46.210 When the Bible says something, don't ask somebody what it means. 344 00:22:46.220 --> 00:22:47.550 It means what it says. 345 00:22:48.300 --> 00:22:50.630 And don't go ask your church if they believe it. 346 00:22:50.640 --> 00:22:52.670 Why does it matter whether they believe it or not? 347 00:22:52.720 --> 00:22:57.130 It has nothing to do with it at all. The Bible is God's sovereign book. 348 00:22:57.140 --> 00:23:01.830 God put it here. It belongs to God. It's God's book, and you leave it alone. 349 00:23:01.840 --> 00:23:05.330 All you can do is believe it, accept it, and live by it, 350 00:23:05.340 --> 00:23:10.170 and it'll take you to heaven. It'll take you to heaven, and we are sure of that. 351 00:23:10.400 --> 00:23:11.750 In the word of the Lord, 352 00:23:12.160 --> 00:23:17.490 God very carefully prohibits any kind 353 00:23:17.500 --> 00:23:21.090 of magical art that the devil concocts. 354 00:23:22.780 --> 00:23:27.470 I have read to you before, and we'd like to read it again from Deuteronomy 18 and 355 00:23:27.480 --> 00:23:33.080 10. He said, there shall not be found among you any that makes his son or daughter 356 00:23:33.090 --> 00:23:36.560 to be part of a religious sacrifice system. 357 00:23:36.790 --> 00:23:38.400 And maybe you don't realize it. 358 00:23:38.410 --> 00:23:42.860 There are humans offered as human sacrifices this day to devils. 359 00:23:42.870 --> 00:23:47.560 Not a long time ago as of this day. That uses definition of any kind. 360 00:23:47.590 --> 00:23:50.980 an observer of the times of any kind, enchanters or witch or charmer, 361 00:23:51.290 --> 00:23:54.380 consultor, familiar spiritual, wizard or necromancer. 362 00:23:54.390 --> 00:23:59.440 God specifically says that we should not be related to any of these things 363 00:23:59.450 --> 00:24:02.400 whatsoever. And when we find them, 364 00:24:02.410 --> 00:24:08.160 we have superiority over them. We have strength that they don't have. 365 00:24:08.170 --> 00:24:09.900 We have authority that they don't have. 366 00:24:10.030 --> 00:24:12.960 We have the anointing of God that they don't have. 367 00:24:12.990 --> 00:24:17.260 And that we must never take a back seat to them. 368 00:24:17.340 --> 00:24:19.950 We must say God is the greatest power in the world, 369 00:24:19.960 --> 00:24:23.750 and you're defeated by God's power, and make it to be that way. 370 00:24:24.890 --> 00:24:28.040 Now, the Israelites are commanded never to learn witchcraft. 371 00:24:28.050 --> 00:24:29.540 Now, we're God's Israel today. 372 00:24:30.370 --> 00:24:35.340 Never to learn any form of witchcraft or any abomination of the people that they 373 00:24:35.350 --> 00:24:37.800 found, that they were among. 374 00:24:38.190 --> 00:24:42.500 In our traveling in many countries, 375 00:24:43.360 --> 00:24:48.590 I keep myself real clean of wanting to see some of this stuff through 376 00:24:48.600 --> 00:24:51.230 being inquisitive. 377 00:24:51.900 --> 00:24:56.650 We have people that have been hurt, that have just gone to these places. 378 00:24:56.660 --> 00:24:58.290 I'd like to see what they're doing. 379 00:24:59.290 --> 00:25:01.380 It's none of your business what they're doing. 380 00:25:01.410 --> 00:25:04.600 You've got only one reason to go there, and that's to destroy it. 381 00:25:05.860 --> 00:25:09.210 If you say, I'm going there to destroy it, you go there and you set up a warfare. 382 00:25:09.530 --> 00:25:13.620 A spiritual warfare within you. You say, I command these spirits to cease. 383 00:25:13.630 --> 00:25:17.680 I command them to stop functioning. I command them to go into a state of confusion. 384 00:25:17.690 --> 00:25:20.220 I command it now. And it happens, you see. 385 00:25:20.230 --> 00:25:22.320 But you haven't gone there to be part of it. 386 00:25:22.800 --> 00:25:25.990 You haven't gone there to say, I'd like to see it. 387 00:25:26.040 --> 00:25:28.750 Don't ever be inquisitive relative to the devil. 388 00:25:28.960 --> 00:25:34.530 Please don't. And yet there are tens of thousands of Americans today that would like 389 00:25:34.540 --> 00:25:38.050 to know something over there. That's the reason they go to palm readers. 390 00:25:38.220 --> 00:25:41.050 and crystal geysers, and astrology charts. 391 00:25:41.840 --> 00:25:44.790 They're trying to know something. We walk by faith. 392 00:25:44.800 --> 00:25:48.910 We don't walk by sight. I don't need to know anything about tomorrow. 393 00:25:48.940 --> 00:25:52.250 My hand's going to be in His hand, and I'm going to walk with Jesus tomorrow. 394 00:25:52.880 --> 00:25:56.450 And if I knew what was going to happen tomorrow, I wouldn't need any faith. 395 00:25:57.500 --> 00:26:02.690 But God wants us to walk in trust, in belief, and in faith to Him. 396 00:26:02.720 --> 00:26:07.050 And so, therefore, we just let Jesus take us through all of our tomorrows. 397 00:26:07.060 --> 00:26:10.050 I don't ever ask Him. I don't ever ask him, Lord, 398 00:26:10.060 --> 00:26:12.230 would you just tell me who I'm going to meet tomorrow? 399 00:26:12.240 --> 00:26:13.290 I just meet him. 400 00:26:15.270 --> 00:26:17.180 I don't say, Lord, show me this or that. 401 00:26:17.190 --> 00:26:21.360 Because if you did, you'd open up a door to where the devil could get in and deceive 402 00:26:21.370 --> 00:26:24.260 you. And you'd think it was God and it wasn't God at all. 403 00:26:24.510 --> 00:26:28.580 The Bible says always to test the spirits to see whether they're of God or not. 404 00:26:28.730 --> 00:26:31.840 And Jesus said, and my sheep hear my voice. 405 00:26:32.150 --> 00:26:36.440 We've got to get to be a person that knows the voice of the master. 406 00:26:36.470 --> 00:26:39.240 And we always follow the master in no other voice. 407 00:26:39.400 --> 00:26:43.690 Can you say amen to that? Amen. God wishes to bless us and to strengthen us. 408 00:26:43.700 --> 00:26:46.510 And I'd like to pray for you. Father, 409 00:26:47.080 --> 00:26:50.230 we know that there is in the world today evil, 410 00:26:50.240 --> 00:26:53.390 and we know there is in the world today demon power. 411 00:26:53.620 --> 00:26:59.430 We know that there are multiplied millions and maybe hundreds of millions of evil 412 00:26:59.440 --> 00:27:05.050 spirits that they fell from heaven with Satan when a third of the angels fell from 413 00:27:05.060 --> 00:27:08.470 heaven. But we must never forget that two -thirds of them are left. 414 00:27:08.660 --> 00:27:10.230 And they are on our side. 415 00:27:10.320 --> 00:27:15.330 And that we have angels around about us to lead us, to guide us, and assist us. 416 00:27:15.340 --> 00:27:19.990 And that we must be very conscious of them also and of their power to bless us.
