The teachings of the Lord Jesus and His apostles
clearly established that riches are a
snare to the souls of all Christians and God’s servants. I challe=

all to believe the Lord and his Word. “Yea, let God be true, but every
man a liar;” (Romans 3:4). All the teachings and the example=
of
our Lord Jesus are against the teachings of the “word of faith”
prosperity gospel. That “get rich gospel” was never taught by o=

Based upon the Word, the gospel of Christ and the
apostles, it is evident that the word of faith revival was inspired of Sata=

Mr. Kenneth Hagin was inspired=

the devil. He manifested a covetous spirit and preached a Satanic doctrine =
when
he established the prosperity gospel, which he forged from Mr. F.W. Kenyon.=
Mr.
Copeland came under that satanic inspiration and the Crouchs, was inspired =
of
the devil to evangelize the prosperity gospel by TBN. This has successfully
bewitched most so-called Pentecostal ministers, pastors, and televangelists=
of
the world. Only some of the popular names were included in this chapter alo=

their files that they are the ones who are getting rich by the great number=
of

prosperity is one of the greatest adversaries to the soul salvation of mank=

I am not ignorant nor have overlooked other promises of the bible in

modern Judases, money lovers and thieves to fleece the poor of their hard
earned wages. The Lord Jesus lived an exemplary life in accordance to his
teaching. The apostles and disciples followed his example. None of the apos=
tles
were millionaires or rich men. Jesus lived a sacrificial life, borrowed a
donkey to ride, was crucified naked and was buried in a borrowed tomb.
&=
nbsp; Mr. Hagin, Pentecostalism and her
money-loving preachers are the poorest examples of Christ in their teaching
about prosperity. Hagin has bewitched millions of preachers and Pentecostal=

as a whole by his damnable heresy. Satan perverted to him Mark 11:23. He tu=

it around to mean money because of his covetous money-greedy spirit and lust
for prosperity Mark
FAILED WORD TEST - PROPHECIES
FULFILLED
&=
nbsp; We previously established in this chapter that if
Pentecostalism and the “word of faith” movement fail the test of
God’s Word, it can mean one or more things. Firstly that the revival =
of
1906 was the third stage of reformation and not restoration. Modern Pentecostalism was proven wrong by the corr=
upt
fruits it bore. If 1906 was
restoration it could not produce what it did for the past hundred years.
Restoration of the word and Pentecost was yet to come. God sent it by the
Laodicean Pentecostal messenger: Revelation 3:14, Revelation 10:7. Forty ye=
ars
after, which is one generation, in that period,
Revel=
ation
3:17. <Because thou sayest, I am rich,
and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that th=
ou
art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked.>
She boasts about her riches, prosperity, glory, fame, and knowledge but is in a stat=
e of
apostasy. She has rejected the word and Christ. He stands at the church door
pleading with individuals to repent. All of God’s children within that cursed system will hear his voice and be
prepared for the rapture.
Pentecostalism, with all her renowned ministers,
leaders, and televangelists has fulfilled another great prophecy when she
rejected the Word by her messenger. This prophecy was not in the past but j=
ust
before the second coming of the Lord and manifestation of Satan’s pow=
er
by lying signs and wonders.
I
Thessalonians 2:7-12 <Even him, whose coming is after the working of Sat=
an
with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of
unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of =
the
truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them str=
ong
delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who
believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.>
&=
nbsp; The
&=

Pentecostalism has spurned their day of grace by rejection of the restored
gospel of Christ and the apostles. It was destroyed by the Roman Catholic
Church in the Dark Ages. (Joel 2:3-=

KENYON
Much like many modern Word of Faith teachers, Ken=
yon
had no formal theological training and in his case his doctorate was
self-instituted. Tragedy again struck Kenyon in 1930 when his wife, Alice, left him during the =
height
of his popularity, accusing him of
having affairs with other women. Kenyon fled to
&n=
bsp;  =
; Kenyon
influenced many people during his lifetime including Tommy L. Osborn, F.F. Bosworth, and Kenneth=
Hagin.
His influence is undeniable.
&n=
bsp;  =
; Oral Roberts University President Charles Farah declaration of war on the Fai=
th
movement. He traced Kenyon's roots to the metaphysical cults. Hagin got his doctrine from Kenyo=
n by
plagiarizing it, and thus the entire Faith movement was built on a cultic root.
“A
Plagiarism “In 1983, t=
wo
students at
“Upon discovering Hagin's use of MacMillan's
material, Simmons contacted the publishing house that published MacMillan's
original work. The president =
of the
publishing company confronted Hagin with written proof of the plagiarism. Hagin's response was to claim that=
he
had not plagiarized anyone but that his acknowledgement of MacMillan had be=
en
an oversight. Hagin then impl=
icitly
claimed that the plagiarism was actually proof that his teaching and
MacMillan's teaching were from God.
In a portion of a letter printed on page 68 of "A Different
Gospel" by D.R. McConnell, Ha=
gin
argued that persons speaking on the same subject use 'virtually the same
words' because 'it is the same Spirit that is leading and directing.' Simmons did not accept this argume=
nt,
noting that it begged the question why Hagin felt it necessary to read any
books at all if God was going to inspire him to have the same thoughts and
words as another author. This
information is available from
=
Mr.
Hagin desired prosperity and popularity more than eternal life and for the
people who trusted him, rejected God’s Word, though he was in that
revival and witnessed the wonderful works of God. He himself claimed to be a
prophet and great bible teacher. Investigations by Oral Roberts university
proved him to be an impersonator of other men’s work and most of his
sixty five million copies of books were based upon the work of other men wh=
ich
he stole. He committed one of the greatest evils to the destruction of
Pentecostalism and that is when he came face to face with the restored word
which God sent by the father of the 1947 revival, W.M. Branham, Elijah the
prophet, Malachi 4:5-6. He also impersonated him and at the death of
W.M.Branham he and Mr. Gordon Lindsay fabricated a lie telling the people t=
hat
W.M.Branham backslid and God had to take him away in an accident. This lie =
had
damned hundreds of millions of souls and is commonly reported amongst
Pentecostal brethren up to this day. (God’s
generals – by Roberts Liardon).
WORLD EVANGELIZATION
Pentecostalism, the apostate and deluded Laodicean
church is rejected by God. She’s cursed to fulfill several other end =
time
prophecies one of which is Revelati=
on 16:
12-16 <And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river
Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of=
the
east might be prepared.
And I=
saw
three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and o=
ut
of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.
For t=
hey are
the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of t=
he
earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great da=
y of
God Almighty.
Behol=
d, I
come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, les=
t he
walk naked, and they see his shame.
And he
gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.=
>
Pentecostalism is the only movement upon the earth that can fulfill such evangelizati=
on
of Satan. She is fulfilling that prophecy now, with the satanic revival
“Word of Faith” which has compassed both land and sea to make m=
en,
proselytes; and two fold more the children of hell than Hagin and all who r=
ejected
the restored Word in the former rain revival of 1946/47. Modern Pentecostal
ministers, pastors, evangelists, televangelists along with all the net-work=
of
Pentecostalism is employed in this great prophetic evangelization. Not even Protestantism or Catholicism can fulfi=
ll
that prophecy. However they are now recruited through the Charismatic movem=
ent
to fight against the army of God in the Armageddon Battle.
&=
nbsp; Satan’s plans were professi=
onally
orchestrated to accomplish the great task of world evangelization, which wi=
ll
form a one world church, and a one world government to bring into existence=
the
Mark of the beast. Revelation 13:13=
-18 Satan
first used false Christs and false prophets to deceive many. Matt 24:24
Pentecostalism also fulfilled that scripture. As a result of such deception,
they rejected present revealed truth; the restored gospel of Christ and the
apostles. Pentecostalism became the apostate
Mr. Kenyon and Hagin were chosen and anointed fo=
r that
job. At the same period Mr. Copeland received the “get rich”
inspiration and the Crouches were supernaturally moved of Satan to create.
“Trinity Broadcasting Network.” T.B.N. It became the vehicle of Satan to
transport the “get rich” gospel and Trinitarianism around the
globe. Hagin’s 65 million
copies of books previously established the same heresy for decades. In addi=
tion
he established Pentecostalism upon the foundation of Romanism, which is
Trinitarianism and other heresies.
Satan’s plans for world evangelism continu=
ed
with many great men. Oral Roberts, the rejecter of the restored Word, becam=
e a
satanic father of Pentecostalism. He was chosen of Satan to build a city of
faith, including a university which educated men in the ‘get richR=
17;
prosperity gospel and trinitarianism. Lovers of money and modern Judases be=
came
Satan’s evangelists. They were manufactured
in mass production
In this same period Satan by scientific knowledge
perfected radio and television to broadcast his message. False Christ and f=
alse
prophets Matt 24:24 then had the medium to speak to the whole world from the
desert place or even the secret chambers, lying signs and wonders accompani=
ed
such satanic men for world evangelization. This is in fulfillment of Revela=
tion
16:12-16. The Trinitarian spirits of the devil went out working miracles to
gather the rulers and nations of the whole world.
Pentecostalism is the only religious body that is
presently employed in this satanic task. She was ordained to fulfill this
prophecy. She will be instrumental in bringing the Mark of the beast from R=
ome
to all people whose names are not in the lambs book of life (Revelation 13:13-18, Revelation 17:8)=
.
Satan’s evangelization is almost completed. God’s last revival and evangelization comes by another re=
turn
of Pentecost. It will accompany great signs, wonders and miracles in creati=
ve
acts of power. This will be the true fulfillment of Mark 11:23.
Two great men are instruments of Satan and are
viciously keeping the vision of Satan’s world evangelization alive. T=
hey
are keeping word of faith revival alive. They are K. Copeland and P. Crouch,
who was associated with Mr. Hagin and Oral Roberts. Crouchs’ network
T.B.N. accommodates most of Satan’s Televangelists. Benny Hinn is the
most popular and is imitating the outpouring of the Holy Spirit that is abo=
ut
to come to the people of God. Such men are known by their fruits: “Ye
shall know them by their fruits”.

People are laughing their way unto the tribulation and unto hell. It is tot=

unscriptural. None who receive=

Holy Ghost in the Old Testament nor the New Testament manifested in that
manner. Jesus, who had the greatest measure of the Spirit, had no such
manifestation. He was a man of sorrow and acquainted with grief. (Isaiah 53:3). It is written:
Ezekiel 9:4 <…Go through the midst of the city, through the

nbsp; Those
who were in the laughing revival, the Scribes and Pharisees who mocked Jesus
and laughed at him on the cross, failed to receive that mark, the seal of G=
od.
But the hundred and twenty received it on the day of Pentecost. Laughter was
not the evidence of the Holy Ghost. Everywhere that the Holy Spirit was giv=
en,
there was no such manifestation.
Ecclesiastes 2:2 <I said of laughter, It is mad: and of mirth, What

For a church to be in =
the

Pentecostalism. It is not a Holy laughter, but an ungodly laughter.
The scripture did n=
ot
say that they were drunk in the Spirit on the day of Pentecost. Thus the pe=
ople
who act like drunk men, and stagger by the power of the devil are in a stro=

delusion of Satan. When the Jews heard them speak in tongues and stammered,=
they
assumed that they were drunk. They saw no drifting, falling on the
ground and all the nonsense that accompanies this satanic laughter and
drunkenness revival. Peter said,
Acts
There are no records w=
here
men drifted, fell to the ground, jumped, rolled over each other, and women
exposed and slain to the ground when they received the Holy Ghost. Jesus ne=

fell to the ground. He said, “The Lord hath anointed me to preach the
gospel” (Luke 4), and He =
sat down.
The Holy Ghost is supreme power in control. The devil possesses people and =
they
get out of control. This satanic revival is definitely out of control.
Pentecostalism has rejected the Word that God sent to them by the Laodicean
messenger, and has entered into a laughing revival. It’s madness! Yet

their present condition. They are a big bag of air compounded with rotten <=
