Will and Testement
Explaining the Legal Framework of the Bible
Understanding the Bible’s legal structure deepens the revelation of how Father God works in our lives. This includes His Will and Testament, Satan’s lease-holding at will, and the contract of sale that the Lord Jesus Christ drafted for us.
The free will Father God has given us is a legally binding provision that He has granted us, and He is therefore bound by it. We can either enable Him by pleading guilty and choosing Him, or impede Him by refusing His forgiveness and denying ourselves His blessings.
The main points are described below.
Appropriating our Legal Rights
The New Will and Testament (aka New Covenant) made provision for the second type of contract. This is the ‘contract of sale’, or Father God’s ‘purchase agreement’ with us.
Read below to understand God’s provision of choice for us through free will, and the ultimate authority that Jesus Christ’s Name has given us.
Find out how this provides us with the ability to evict Satan out of our lives and live in the very abundance of joy and peace that Father God originally had in mind for us.
This is the Good News!
Leasehold at Will
The Bible is a series of things. It is:
1. The Word of – as in promises of – Father God (i.e. He has given us His word/promise)
2. A timeline that describes to us these promises and their scheduled occurrences. These are called prophecies. It also records the events as they have happened, in order to enable us to tick these off as they happen and to understand these promises in both a physical and spiritual context. The event relevant here was Lucifer, an archangel who wished to be above God and head a rebellion against Him, getting flung out of heaven to the earth with a third of the other angels who he had seduced to follow him, with promises that they would be worshiped as gods. At this point, Lucifer’s name changed and he became Satan or the Devil. He took control and sovereignty over the earth and all that was in it.
Isaiah 14:12-15″How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.”
3. It is the tale of two legal contracts, in the form of Wills/Testaments: the Old Testament, and the New Testament. Within these Testaments are the promises which are made as covenants.

Explaining the Legal framework
A ‘Will’ or ‘Testament’ is a legal document that sets out how a person’s property is to be distributed after their death, and the names of who will inherit the property.
The Old Testament originally provided ‘covenant dominion’, or control and sovereignty of the earth and everything it it, to Adam. However, Adam gave his birthright to Satan in exchange for ‘enlightenment’: to be as God and to know all things (a result of the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil).
1 Corinthians 15:21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
Romans 5:12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:
When Adam
Father God is Holy; He can only be connected to Holiness.
Rebellion, rejection, disobedience, death, and physical and animal bodies, are not Holy.
The control and sovereignty of the earth and everything in it reverted to Satan. Through cunning and stealth, he has conquered us and the earth. Daily, through free will, ourselves and our ancestors before us opt into Satan’s world. He is master and father of everything in the earthly realm. His devilish systems are in control.
John 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
Leasehold at Will
Satan has legal rights of ownership and occupancy. This is in effect a leasehold at will for Satan, both in the earth and in us personally.
An “estate at will” has no end date and no initial period of tenancy defined in the agreement. The estate continues as long as the owner gives the tenant permission to occupy the property. If either party terminates the lease, they must give notice according to the lease laws.
Cutting to the chase…
Satan is a tenant in the real estate of our lives. We have to decide if we are going to continue to let him have the right of abode or if we are going to cast him out. And that’s where deliverance comes in.

Apocrypha: The first book of Adam and Eve
(1) Chapter VIII – The “Bright Nature” of man is taken away.
Then Adam cried and said, “O God, when we lived in the garden, and our hearts were lifted up, we saw the angels that sang praises in heaven, but now we can’t see like we used to; no, when we entered the cave, all creation became hidden from us.” Then
Chapter XIII – The fall of Adam. Why night and day were created.
1 Then when God, who is merciful and full of pity, heard Adam’s voice, He said to him: “O Adam, so long as the good angel was obedient to Me, a bright light rested on him and on his hosts. But when he transgressed My commandment, I deprived him of that bright nature, and he became dark. And when he was in the heavens, in the realms of light, he knew nothing of darkness. But he transgressed, and I made him fall from
Revoking Satan's Leasehold at Will
To provide the spiritual covering of forgiveness for Adam and his descendants, God introduced the spiritual concept of blood sacrifice, for the atonement of sin. This happened initially with the provision of animal skin clothes to them.
However, this was not the end of God’s plan to regain His creation. Yet by the spiritual and legal principles that He had originally established, He had to die in order to change the substance of His birthright promises to His family (us), through a New Will and Testament (New Covenant/Promise)
The Old Testament covering of sin was through sacrifice. The sin/sacrifice would be transacted in the earthly realm, and the spiritual consequences would follow.
The sacrifice to end all sacrifices
Following this pattern, therefore, for the revocation of Satan’s rights to the earth and all people from both the beginning of time to the end of time and for Satan’s leasehold at will to be discontinued, two things needed to happen.
1. A perfect, blemish-free sacrifice had to be made for all people for all time
- The sacrifice had to be human instead of animal
- The human had to have a body that could die
- The human had to be innocent of any sin
- The human had to have blood that could be shed for sin and applied to sinners
2. God had to die
Why Jesus Christ?
God cannot die.
So, God impregnated Mary by the Holy Spirit with the Lord Jesus. God became God in human/animal form.
Luke 1:35 And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.
In the overshadowing of Mary by the Holy Spirit, the Lord Jesus was born as God, and the humanity was provided through Mary. The ‘overshadowing’ also meant that Mary’s sin was not imputed to Him. Jesus lived a perfect, blemish-free existence. His 3-year ministry was the archetype for a born-again Spirit-filled believer.
He was brought to the cross by the same demonic spirit that is antichrist — Satan. Jesus was crucified, and at the point of His death, His blood was spilled out totally onto the earth for our redemption. He was buried.
Scripture tells us that He rose on the 3rd day, and spent another 40 days ministering to and teaching His disciples. He was then translated into Heaven, where he sits on the right hand of God, interceding for us to Father God.
God’s
This account, above, sounds matter of fact. But, the sacrifice that He made as a man who had done nothing to be censured for, let alone be killed for as brutally as He was – is inconceivable!
You have to remember that at the point of death, Father God turned His face away from the Lord Jesus. He was completely forsaken and alone.
We can thank Father God that that doesn’t have to be anyone else’s portion, because of the Lord Jesus Christ’s selfless act of mercy, by dying on our behalf. Amen!
Why Jesus Christ?
Because He was the one who took our place as the “scapegoat
1 John 2:2; 4:14 ― He paid the penalty for the sins of the whole world.
Isaiah 53:5-6 ― He was pierced through for our transgressions; He was crush for our iniquities. The Lord has caused the iniquity of all to fall upon Him
John 3:16 ― For God so loved the world that he gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but, have eternal life
1 Pet. 3:18 ― For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:
1 Corinthians 15:3-4 ― For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
Romans 10:13 ― Whosoever will call upon the name of the Lord will be saved
1 John 1:12 ― As many as received Him (Jesus as Saviour and Lord), to them, he gave the right to become Sons of God.
Remission means payment. The Lord Jesus Christ ‘bought us’ and paid with his blood in the exchange.
New Will and Testament
The New Will and Testament
The New Will and Testament enables those of us who are prepared to believe that Jesus Christ has been sacrificed the atonement for our inherited original sin.
When we choose to acknowledge that the Lord Jesus Christ’s death was the sacrifice that was made on our behalf, and that He was raised from the dead to conquer the spirit of death, we declare that we “believe in the Lord Jesus Christ”.
Baptism in water by full immersion for the remission of sin is the next step.
The fundamental promise in the New Testament is the good news that we will be adopted into God’s Kingdom as co-heirs with Jesus Christ. We will become Sons of the Living God. We then have the legal right to invoke or use the name of Jesus Christ as our delegated authority.
John 14:13-14 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
We can also reclaim our spiritual connection with Father God through the infilling of the Holy Spirit, or Baptism in the Holy Spirit.
The New Testament’s covering of sin is through repentance (acknowledging our sin and pleading guilty) and Father God forgiving our sin. The forgiveness has already happened in the spiritual realm through the Lord Jesus’
And in the same pattern, our personal sin.
Rejection of Father God and its bitter roots, and the rebellion against God that it causes, separates us from God. These are the two demonic ministrations or behaviours that are at the root of all personal sin, that separates us personally from Father God. It was the same basic behaviour that culminated in the original sin that cursed all of mankind. When we repent of our sin, renounce it and look for forgiveness, Father God uses the blood of the Lord Jesus from His sacrifice on the cross as atonement or payment.
The Old Testament covering of sin was through sacrifice. The sin or sacrifice would be transacted in the earthly realm and the spiritual consequences would follow.
Through Jesus Christ, and belief in His death and resurrection and the personal promise it has given to each of us individually, we can overcome this curse. It is done!
But, we still have Free will
The promise of being saved from Satan’s oppression is now firmly rooted in the fabric of the world.
This is the bit that most people are not taught, so they do not understand that we have to declare that we INDIVIDUALLY want to be released from Satan, redeemed, and purchased back by Father God.
Father God has put a new legal mechanism in place to purchase us back from Satan, and it functions as a contract of sale.
Some notes about "The Blood"
The principle of ‘first mention’ in the Scripture provides the revelation of the spiritual principle as it is connected to and in Father God’s mind. Then, through ‘progressive mentions’, Father God makes the revelation of any given truth increasingly clear as the word proceeds.
Father God caused the first physical death and killed the first beings in the Old Testament to make a covering for Adam and Eve’s sin. They were lambs, from which he made clothes.
“Blood” is found 392 times in the King James Bible. In the Old Testament, it is found
It is wildly unattractive in these times to talk about ‘the blood
Hebrews 9:22 – And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.
We are told by Father God a series of things about blood.
Genesis 9:4 – But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat.
“The life of the flesh is in the blood.” (Lev. 17:11; Lev. 17:14; Lev. 19:16; Deut. 12:23; Matt. 27:4; Matt. 27:24; )
The first mention of blood in the Scriptures identifies that blood has living characteristics.
Genesis 4:10-11 – And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother’s blood crieth unto me from the ground. And now art thou cursed from the earth, which hath opened her mouth to receive thy brother’s blood from thy hand;
Abel’s blood spoke to God. Blood has a “voice”, which God hears.
Hebrews 12:24 – And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.
The Lord Jesus’ blood is speaking to God, in
The blood speaking is literal!
When the Lord Jesus exsanguinated,
John 19:34 – But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water. Jesus Christ is speaking in my behalf to the Father.
This was the last thing that emanated from His body. His blood flowed out over the earth, onto the ground underneath where His body had died.
Revelation 1:5 – And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto
This is why the blood of Jesus – when invoked in declarative prayer and through communion – is so powerful.
The Blood of the Lord Jesus speaks Forgiveness
When we petition the Lord God in the courts of Heaven for our repentance and forgiveness, the blood of the Lord Jesus speaks in testimony for us, and the blood covering is the forgiveness. This is for both our personal sin and for the sin of our ancestors or descendants.
Satan's hoodwink
APPROPRIATING SINLESSNESS is Actively Taken, NOT Passively Received
Satan is not going to give one inch of ground without a fight. He knows that he has lost his leaseholder’s rights in our life, but we have to use our free will and evict him.
“
note: the ‘be done’ is a verb (future tense)
BELIEVE = verb – to trust in, adhere to, rely on and obey (Greek amplification)
FAITH = noun/verb – faith is exercised (future tense), ‘to have faith’ is to exercise faith (future tense)
APPROPRIATE = verb – to take (future tense) Strongs G4486
JESUS’ part in our SINLESSNESS
Jesus died as the sacrifice for our sins
Matthew 1:21 | Mark 10:45 | Corinthians 15:3-4 | 1 John 2:2 |
Matthew 26:28 | Romans 5:6 | Hebrews 9:28 |
Although performed in the physical, it had spiritual consequences (Old Testament pattern)
Jesus died for the remission of the ORIGINAL SIN, which we have inherited through seed/sperm/genetic material. The consequence of this sin
Genesis 3:15 | Hebrews 10:26-31 | Hebrews 9:22 | |
Romans 3:10-25 | Romans 5:12 | etal |
REMISSION = dictionary: the cancellation of a debt, charge, or penalty.
synonyms: cancellation, setting aside, suspension, revocation, repeal, rescinding, abrogation
Jesus’ work on the cross is the PROMISE for everyone.
BUT, it only becomes a reality for people that, through free will, want to have God for their Father and not Satan.
Once in a confession by their own mouths, they say that they believe, which means that they want to trust in, adhere to, rely upon and obey God.
Because they believe that Jesus Christ died for their own personal sins and is now resurrected and alive … they have the right to APPROPRIATE/TAKE THE PROMISE of FREEDOM FROM SATAN for themselves.
But the PROMISE doesn’t happen magically for everyone
It only happens when the individual, through free will, APPROPRIATES/TAKES it in the physical through confession, repentance, renunciation and forgiveness, following the pattern of the Purchase Agreement.
This is vitally important, because this is why the debate rages that we are saved through faith, not works, and that our sin was washed away by Jesus’ work on the cross. This is only half the story …
Actively taken, not passively received
BECAUSE:
Satan still LEGALLY owns the earth and its inhabitants.
So, in following Jesus, we are taking advantage of Jesus’ reclaiming of Satan’s rights on earth by APPROPRIATING/TAKING them.
[Isaiah 40:31, Psalm 116:13, Ephesians 4:24, Colossians 3:10, Romans 13:14, Galatians 3:27, Revelation 22:17 etal]
APPROPRIATE = Take by force, seize, commandeer, expropriate, annex, arrogate, sequestrate, sequester, take possession of, take over, assume, secure, acquire, wrest, usurp, claim, lay claim to, hijack
As soon as we (through free will) answer God’s call (through the Holy Spirit) to believe in this fact, we have the opportunity in the physical to take part in the remission of the original sin. This is a spiritual transaction.
By confessing our belief in the Lord Jesus having died as the payment for your sin, your BAPTISM is your taking part in that ‘paying off the remittance’, because you are baptised for the remission of sin. [Mark 1:4, Luke 1:7, Luke 3:3, Acts 2:38, Acts 10:43, Romans 3:25]
OUR baptism is the natural/physical/earthly participation in the APPROPRIATION in the natural of that PROMISE of Jesus’ work on the cross.
Contract of Sale or Purchase Agreement
When you buy or sell something, the transaction is called settling on a Contract of Sale or Purchase Agreement. It is completed by performing the following steps:
1. Terms of transfer of ownership are agreed for a consideration, or payment
2. The terms are agreed and signed
3. The transaction is sealed; this is the payment, and it is acknowledged with a receipt
4. Then, on the basis of the receipt of payment, it is delivered
In spiritual terms, this is what happens:
Galatians 3:13 — Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law,
1. Terms of transfer of ownership agreed → We REPENT, confess our part in the Original Sin and our belief that the Lord Jesus Christ has already paid the asking price for us, agreeing with Father God’s terms (which is we will not personally sin anymore).
2. Signed = Baptism in water → washing away the Original Sin (covering it with Jesus Christ’s blood)
Mark 16:16 — He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved;
At this point, God’s word says “ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.” It is future tense.
Acts 2:38 — Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
It is a promise, and like all promises of Father God, we have free will in the manifestation of the blessing. Unlike demonic spirits, the Holy Spirit is not a squatter. He waits to enter or baptise us when He is invited to. We have to ask for the Holy Spirit. When this happens, we are:
3. Sealed = Baptised in the Holy Spirit → we are sealed with the Christos Anointing as a receipt
When we have received the baptism of the Holy Spirit, we are Born Again.
John 3:2-15 — The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him. Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born? Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit. Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be? Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness. If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven. And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
4. Delivered → The freedom is ours to collect from the pick-up counter
Good News, eh!?
Why Baptism?
Baptism is for the remission of sin. It is also a public act of obedience and commitment.
During baptism in water, our part in the original sin is washed away.
Isaiah 1:18 “Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.”
We are commanded in scripture to be baptised in water, because it is part of the spiritual pattern that Father God has decreed.
Matthew 28:19-20 — Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

Why the Holy Spirit?
A Spiritual Transaction
The remittance RECEIPT of the spiritual transaction/purchase is the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit will not enter you unless you give Him your free will permission. When you ask Him to enter or baptise you, Father God will infill you with His Holy Spirit.
Again, it is a free will transaction. You have to ask for it.
The Biblical proof is speaking in tongues. [Acts 2:38, Acts 10:43]
The 9 GIFTS of the Holy Spirit are the spiritual toolkit that you are provided with to fight off Satan.
BUT UNDERSTAND THIS:
This does not wipe out the CONSEQUENCES of our sin.
The appropriation of YOUR PHYSICAL REAL ESTATE (your body, mind, and spirit) must be taken back by force.
Think about going into the promised land
Think Caleb and Joshua (Joshua Chapters 1-11).
You have demonic agents of Satan assigned to your every living moment – your body members and mind/soul – both inside you and outside of you.
Baptism gave you the legal right to take your life back.
The Holy Spirit gives you the TOOLS to take it back.
AND – in the same way,that we have had to reclaim God as our Father through APPROPRIATION/TAKING, you have to teach your body and mind/soul through APPROPRIATION/TAKING.
The demonic agents of Satan assigned to your every moment and member tempt you to die divorced from God, your Heavenly Father.
This will not go away – but you can DEFEAT the onslaught.
And this liberation/deliverance from evil, we have to take by force, commanding it by casting out. [Mark 3:15,Mark 16:17-18]
It will not happen through prayer.
It has to be done through binding and casting out – spiritual eviction!
APPROPRIATION of our sinlessness through repentance and forgiveness in our personal prayer
This is the New Testament pattern – it is already done by Jesus in the spiritual, so it is now to be APPROPRIATED/TAKEN back in the physical.
Predestinated to be with Father God?
Father God made us. He loves all of us. He wants us all to be reconciled to Him.
He designed us with a specific purpose in His plan. These plans were then made flesh when we were born. These are the very best of plans for us, and the closer we choose to be to Father God, the closer we will live to the slipstream of His blessing.
There is not one person that has been born that he would not welcome back to reconciliation with Him, with open arms. He will buy anyone back from Satan that asks Him to, according to the pattern that He has stipulated in His Will and Testament.
Ephesians 1:4-12 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace; Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence; Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself: That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him:In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will: That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.
Luke 15:11-32 And he said, A certain man had two sons: And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living. And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living. And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want. And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine. And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did eat: and no man gave unto him. And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father’s have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger! I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee, And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants. And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him. And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son. But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet:And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry: For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry. Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard musick and dancing. And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant. And he said unto him, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound. And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father out, and intreated him. And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:But as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf. And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have is thine. It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.
Why haven't I been told this before?
There are several spirits involved in the rampant spiritual blindness that in keeping believers in Jesus Christ bound in a powerless religiosity.
The Power spirit, Ahab, that brings the destruction of family and priesthood, will use Father God’s prophets for its own ends. Bringing spiritual laziness and sluggishness in males, they pander politically to their congregation and allow females to rule and reign.
When an Ahab spirit is at the helm, Jezebel spirits come in. They dominate male leadership and drive in a spirit of female emancipation. They will bring commerce, witchcraft and sorcery spirits with them. They inflict religious control and spiritual blindness.
The Jebusite spirit (which is one of the Seven Nations of Giants), which binds people into spiritual slavery, are self-righteous spirits that humiliate others and stop people growing taller in Father God. Spirits who make people feel small and weak, spirits who undermine the flock establishing personal spiritual authority or force them to surrender their spiritual authority, spirits of spiritual blindness that stop spiritual impartations, the anointing of God and the ministry gifts of the Holy Spirit – these are the works of Jebusite spirits
Father God gives us the pastoring that we want, or are prepared to settle for.
Secularism has in the last 50 years taken Father God out of the marketplace. Ecumenicalism has dumbed down the idea of “doing church” to a contemporary entertainment genre.
Ubiquitous teaching products (such as the Alpha course, developed in the late 1970’s and a few years later released as a 10-week course) have been widely accepted, with close to 30 million people taking the course. It is evangelical in nature but does not encourage the baptism in the Holy Spirit, because it is rooted in Anglican Protestantism.
The mercenary aspects of “Purpose Driven Church” (first published in 1995, but 20 years in the making) and companion teaching “Purpose Driven Life”, which are written by Pentecostal Pastor Rick Warren and Marketing Management Guru Peter Drucker, identifies 400,000 pastors/ministers with over 2.3 billion flock members available for indoctrination. The main focus of the book is humanistic, and it drives the concept of the mega-church.
This focus is on an emotive response to worshiping a “J
The requirement of holiness and sanctification by Father God has been edited out, because it means mandates judgement. Snowflake consumerism enables people to pick and choose the bits they find comforting or empowering, and leave out the rest. A ‘ small ‘g’ ‘ god is becomes the idol worshiped.
Small groups or Bible study groups are used make people feel that they belong to a social group, and charitable works are focused on revenue for mission trips to build houses in emerging countries as opposed to the Holy Spirit ministry healings and miracles, conversions and outpourings of the Holy Spirit. People are being “raised up” to ministry positions because of lack of choice, and in many cases, because of the tax loophole of adding salary sacrifice credit cards to their wages to bolster their income. The depth of understanding of the Word of God is at “milk”, and the people within fellowship groups willing to dedicate time to providing meaty, scripturally-correct teaching ministry is limited. Fake god (like fake news) is virtue signaled and meme-worthy, and are often sigils worked to further blind passive minds with slightly incorrect scriptural references. This is aided and abetted by incomplete perverse Bible translations and revisions promising more easily understood content. Read more about Bible translations and revisions here →
