GIRL! That "mother gaia" spirit they were summoning is the nasty demon ishtar/inanna!! a lot of pagans worship her super super evil!

Listen at 1.25x speed. Thank me later!

Where does it say we have authority to cast out demons?

“Pharmakeia” is mentioned in Galatians 5:20, and multiple times in Revelation in different forms. It is translated “sorcery”, but actually means drugs, and where we get the words pharmacy, or pharmaceutical. If you research the origin of psychedelics, you’ll find they predominantly come from tribal witch doctors, or ancient pagan rituals, for use in connection with the spiritual realm and demonic practices. Even in Bible days they recognised the synonymous connection, hence the use of the word to equate with sorcery. Furthermore it is forbidden in those aforementioned biblical passages.

Great discussion!

The phrase “soul ties” is not in the Bible; rather, the idea of soul ties is a man-made speculation which some teachers superimpose onto Scripture in an attempt to explain certain human behaviors. Soul ties are said to be connections from one person’s soul to (or into) another person’s soul, a concept that has no basis in Scripture.

Pride May be for men

There was never pride in my experience of severe pms with psychotic depression. But that was because I did not experience mania. No I only experienced hell and extreme demonic attacks for 24 hours where I wanted to die until I was released. Very much like the torture of Job. So horrific. I spent. The day crying until I got my period. So no Pride no mania

Thank you so much for your. Testimony. You articulate so well from mental illness to spiritual. When I was in the throes of serious premenstrual tension, it exacerbated and exaggerated my deep depression where ai wanted to die one day out of every month. In my hormonally induced psychotic depression I could hear demons making fun of me and urging me to harm myself. For this horrific night of psychotic pms I became a monster with no control over my mind or emotions. It was a frightening thing and there were not many people who would confirm my thoughts that it was a demonic attack made available through my hormones.

Upper room of a Lowe realm… the whole deception in one phrase… wow

Something i very much agree with Bri, about. The Bible is FULL of additional information hidden in plain sight. There are a few things that contributed the most to helping me start to see them. 1) Based on Proverbs 2: 1-5. i try to remember to pray and ask for Wisdom, Understanding, and Insight. Before i do my personal reading. 2) Use of an interlinear (especially with Bible apps) to explore words. Their various meanings and uses. Sometimes reading how a word is used throughout the Bible gives you a broader understanding of it. 3) Focus on themes, and interesting / odd details. Understand that the Bible is not just about us humans. It is also about the other realms and the rebellious beings. The Bible uses many words, verses, stories and themes that have additional meanings. There are whole stories hidden in stories. As an example: We tend to understand the of the 4 compass directions. North also can mean toward Heaven, and south can also mean toward hell. Most never seek understanding of the additional meanings for East and West. 4) Take the Bible as a whole. There are times when at a quick glance there are verses that seem contradictory. These are gems of understanding if you try to understand why there seems to be opposing answers. Also some of the keys to understanding some of the sections of the Bible are either given in that section or are hidden in a completely different section. You need to read the whole Bible. 5) i recommend 2 types of personal reading. The first is just reading to get basic knowledge and understanding. Reading through that first time. Or after that making sure to read some amount daily. The second, and my personal favorite. Is to take your time and let it speak. When reading like this. It doesn't matter if you read one verse only. Or even get stuck on the same verse 3 days in a row. Read to search for depth and understanding. Ask questions. Contemplate on the section you just read, throughout the day. An example of something hidden in plain sight. The old Testament regularly refers to the throne. As the throne of David. I thought it odd that even Solomon referred to it this way. David means Beloved. 2x in the new Testament. The Holy Spirit says of Jesus. "This is my Beloved son, in whom I am well pleased. Another very easy, obvious example that most understand. I am the way, the truth, and the life. Breaking this down. We have the I AM statement that goes back to Moses asking God his name. We also see Way = Father, Truth = Holy Spirit, Life = Jesus. This one verse is the encapsulating the trinity.

I also did automatic writing when I was into new age. I didn’t know I was talking to demons, then I exposed them, and one of them outside of me is still attacking me. I’m praying since June 2024 and accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior and I commanded demon to leave, but he is still tormenting me.

what a load of horse shit

I have been a born again believer in the Lord Jesus Christ for 50 years, and I am wondering how comes He never speak to me in an audible voice and tell me what He wants me to do. It seems that only people writing books have direct conversations with God and visits to heaven. I am wondering why God does not speak to me directly man to man or have me visit Him in heaven as He does to all the people writing books.

I think I caught your chest cold, Stephen! I hope yours is gone by now but I'm still hacking!

? Is Reiki worse than Yoga or are they both equally bad to practice?

I was in new age, then searched christianity, what you explain with christianity is very common with it not having the mystical. This is protestantism, the eastern orthodox church is the true faith, with all that you are missing go and visit a parish and you will see the mystical, the same christanity before the bible was put together , which venerate the saints that gave you the bible , or read orthodoxy and the religion of the future, satan can appaer as an angel if light, read the early church fathers . Cheers

This girl seems so ignorant and stupid.

A person needs to be discerning and smart.

Thank you very much ❤️

Spiritual pride and spiritual lust - CS Lewis was aware of and experienced the latter in ‘Surprised by Joy’

Jesus Christ is the only Lord and savior, he is the only one who can save people from sin and give them eternal life.

Great podcast as always, Stephen. Church of Glad Tidings in Yuba City? Isn't that the church whose pastor adopted Anton LaVeys daughter, Ray-Ray? And LaVey ended up dying as a result of the spiritual battle against the pastor? Wow! I've seen the pastor give that testimony on a couple of podcasts. Maybe you can get him on your channel and ask more questions. One question I have is there is a conflicting testimony about his death. An older video has a story where Lavey is dying and says his last words," Oh no, I've been so wrong and now it's too late." Something along those lines anyway. The pastor's testimony of LaVey's death is that he died in the astral plane while his body was surrounded by his followers in the Church of Satan including daughter Zeena. Zeena herself, at the time, had been estranged from her father at the time. She's even said that Anton had put a hit man on her. She was living in Europe at the time with husband, Max Schreck. It was probably Karla Lavey that the pastor encountered. It'd be great to get the pastor on to answer these questions. I think pastor is telling the truth. It's easy to make a mistake between the other 2 daughters of LaVey. And it's possible that a member of the Church of Satan could have witnessed Anton saying his last words as he was being defeated on the astral plane. Anyway it is a heck of a story that the pastor of The Church of Glad Tidings has.

HE is Love ❤️ and Love Never Fails!!!

Yeah you were so lucky you were at a deliverance based church. I’ve seen and heard that kind of screech at our church ,even squirming around like a snake . It’s really real. I’m happy you’ve been delivered. Jesus is incredible. His words, His Life, His ways. Always submit to GoD submission, submission, submission. He loves us , HE made Us to have relationship with HIM ❤

She is still church hurt. Saying youre not Christian but following Christ is a bit contradicting. We sometimes fail to differentiate between religion and relationship with Jesus. Religion doesn't save. Someone close to me is against the bible because of how it was used in the past. I tell them even satan can use the bible, doesn't make it an unholy book. Same with not identifying as a Christian because of all the bad associated with it. Ask Jesus to deliver you from the religious spirit that seeks to control our walk with God into something we can intellectually explain instead of relying on Faith. Be blessed ❤️

She was and is still enamored by the seducing spirits that led her astray into new age and yoga deception and teachings. I was too. She needs deliverance still though I feel to help her truly get free. It was and is a bit of a process for some that got so deep as we did. May she delve into the word of God fully and rely on his Word and power there more than experiences. Her speech and wording is telling a lot of who is still speaking from in her from the occult. Jesus save her.

I think one of the biggest divides between Christianity and forbidden or false methods of seeking God is the obsession people have with mystical experiences and the lust for power. Our sinful condition is always overlooked. I believe God grants power through obedience because of this. Try mastering just one commandment, like, Thou shalt not lie. In a world of lies, speaking the truth is a powerful weapon. God has given you a sword and we must use it. Imagine if you mastered all the commandments, perfectly, and never broke one of them. Remind you of anyone? Following the ten commandments isnt just "doing what you're told". It's real power.

❤

Thank you Stephen. I believe you dear child of Jesus Christ Almighty. As a teenager and into my enlistment in the US Army, I was into occult books and magazines. I totally rejected the Catholic Church I grew up in. That was the 1980’s. In my life, the Holy Spirit kept coming to me supernaturally to let me know that He is real. The first time was while I was at an Army shooting range. We took a break. I sat down and laid back. I had a dream of a beautiful blue shining sky but I was felt totally awake. I rolled my eyes back to see a white dove flying towards me and over me and as it passed me the dove flew into the sun’s horizon. As it flew into the sun I heard a huge explosion which woke me up. I looked around and asked the soldiers with me what happened. They laughed at me. There was no explosion lol. Months later I realized it was the Holy Spirit telling me His almighty power is real and He’s protecting me. I did finally accept Jesus in the late 1990’s. Today I am in Jesus 100% . I have been delivered from porn, occultism, marijuana, secular rock music, and a host of other sins which I never do anymore. I pray for you, your family, friends and brethren. Any man that leaves you is totally missing out on a great looking woman of God! Your beautiful and I’m elated that you came out of the world and into the Holy Hands of our Lord.

If you needed surgery, heart transplant say, would you want the surgeon that had the formal training, years of dedication with a clear mind, self denial OR, a surgeon that had a bad heart for years, then had a transplant himself- and out of gratitude he wanted to be a heart surgeon to give back. Great testimony, but I'm very weary 'especially of women' who constantly say ' God told me'. Men say that a lot less..

She 'presents ' well.

Yoga nearly took me out. FOR REAL.

Alot of Christians just are ignorant of warfare and Satan.

DON'T TOUCH MY DEMONS!😊

He looks more relaxed now , but has ptsd eye movemnt.. best wishes to him.

What are All those Books 📚 about in your book shelf. Can you tell use about your education? Just wondering.🎇📡💌🛰️🙋

Thank you for sharing , it helps alot. 🛰️💓🛰️💌🛰️🙋💌

Everything she says is true. I have had very similar experiences. I was A lifetime into the new age/occult/new thought until Jesus saved me about 4 months ago. He pulled me right out of all of the pride, darkness and deception. Praise God! ❤🙌🙏

Truly an epic testimony -- and given with an amazing amount of helpful clarity. AWESOME!

Bri, is there something that a believer might do that would cause them to lose their salvation? Thank you for any help with this question! I was mesmerized by your life story!

Amazing story, thank you for your service and making all these great videos. 🙏✝️🙏

Hi Bri...love you, so proud of you...

I appreciate her perspective on the questionable "sense of spiritual peace" she experienced in yoga. We mortal human beings are often scammed by demonic spirits whenever we first delve into the occult. Lest we forget, demons have been roaming the earth and doing Satan's bidding since the fall of man. They know us all too well. They are well aware of when TO and when NOT TO apply pressure upon us. They are able to create a false sense of security, That's how they are able to successfully manipulate us into willfully walking into their snares. Praise our Heavenly Father for His Word speaks clearly on this ever increasingly relevant subject!

So, as an ACTUAL Pagan (Norse Paleopagan), historian, researcher, all for 30 years.... I will fact check. Actual Occult comes from the Kabbala, which is Abrahamic. Hinduism doesn't have a baptism ceremony, but it does have naming ceremonies and other rites of passage for newborns. So she's either lying or got scammed. Christian household. As usual. Speaking in tongues is not biblical. Baptized in the Holy Spirit is not biblical. What's mentioned in Acts (Which is not the teachings of Jesus) doesn't mean an actual ritual. "Satan" is not originally a proper name but rather a title meaning "accuser" or "adversary" in Hebrew, essentially describing a role within the heavenly court, where the "Satan" would act as a kind of prosecutor, questioning the righteousness of individuals before God; this is most prominently seen in the Book of Job where a figure called "the Satan" challenges Job's faithfulness to God. It started to move towards being an individual during the Greco-Roman period when the Hebrews were exposed to Zoroastrian (monotheistic pagan). So Christianity having an ultimate evil is in fact a pagan concept. "Witnessed one of my best friends die..." First, my condolences. Second. There's the expected trauma. That means everything you do after is a trauma response for control and gratification (two reasons any legitimate practitioner will tell you are stupid reasons to get involved). Meaning you were never an actual practitioner of any of it. This is par for the course, 99% of the time. Demon comes from the Greek word for Divine. Poltergeists are benign. All these stories about how church leaders abandon people... I have yet to see a movement to fix that kind of thing. Just like 93% of people who commit SA wear a cross, or SA/Incest being exponentially higher in Christian settings/houses. While the Bible doesn't explicitly use the phrase "out of body," the concept is considered biblical, most notably in 2 Corinthians 12:2 where the Apostle Paul describes an experience where he was "caught up to the third heaven," unsure if he was "in the body or out of the body" - indicating a potential out-of-body experience that only God knows the true nature of;. It is considered a dissociative experience. Charles Richet (1887) held that OBEs are created by the subject's memory and imagination processes and are no different from dreams. Sleep paralysis is a state, during waking up or falling asleep, in which a person is conscious but in a complete state of full-body paralysis. Means part of your brain isn't awake. Several types of hallucinations have been linked to sleep paralysis: the belief that there is an intruder in the room, the feeling of a presence, and the sensation of floating (OBE). It's common, but can also be cause by PTSD. Seeing your friend dying would cause PTSD. So, nothing supernatural. All trauma. Soul Ties are NOT biblical. That's a pagan concept. Yoga as it is taught and practiced today is in part a product of the colonial legacy of caste oppression and white supremacy. NOT actual Hinduism. Meditation is also very biblical. Heaven is a Germanic word that simply means Sky. Not a word that would have been spoken by anyone in the bible. Christian literally mean Christ Like... Vast majority of "psychics" are charlatans... Legitimate Shamanism is Asiatic. And not New Age. Astrology... It originated in Mesopotamia in the 3rd millennium BCE. Not New Age. Astrology was a common practice in Jewish thought in antiquity, and is referred to in the Talmud. In Hebrew, astrology is known as mazzalot (מזלות), which means "the science of the constellations". So, biblical. By the 13th century astrology had become a part of everyday medical practice in Europe. Doctors combined Galenic medicine (inherited from the Greek physiologist Galen - AD 129-216) with studies of the stars. By the end of the 1500s, physicians across Europe were required by law to calculate the position of the Moon before carrying out complicated medical procedures, such as surgery or bleeding. Influential works of the 13th century include those of the British monk Johannes de Sacrobosco (c. 1195-1256) and the Italian astrologer Guido Bonatti from Forlì (Italy). Bonatti served the communal governments of Florence, Siena and Forlì and acted as advisor to Frederick II, Holy Roman Emperor. His astrological text-book Liber Astronomiae ('Book of Astronomy'), written around 1277, was reputed to be "the most important astrological work produced in Latin in the 13th century". Meaning it was also sanctioned by the church. Automatic writing is psychosomatic. Not a real thing. Arhatic yoga originated in China, India, and Tibet. VERY advanced. Not New Age. And highly doubtful you practiced it. Modern Pranic Healing as a science was finally born in late 1987 by Master Choa Kok Sui. A well known charlatan. "I healed broken bones..." No you did not. You might THINK you did. But no. I reiterate... Hinduism doesn't have a baptism ceremony, but it does have naming ceremonies and other rites of passage for newborns. So she's either lying or got scammed. God is a Germanic word and would not have been used by anyone in the bible. Kumbh Mela... while the festival is marked by a ritual dip in the waters, it is NOT a baptism. The seekers believe that bathing in these rivers is a means to prāyaścitta (atonement, penance, restorative action) for past mistakes. Hindu is NOT New Age. Baptism (while purely symbolic) is a reminder that a person has died to sin and been born again. NOT the same thing. So, you were NOT baptized. 19 minutes in.... on to part 2

Wow thanks for sharing

shes a nice speaker

Western good Eastern Bad

What does he say at 11:04 ? His audio breaks up i think.

I don’t know if it’s hilarious or sad, when Someone confuses Lucifer and Shaitan, the Opposer. Anyone who’s studied real world spirituality knows Jesus is the Sun. The Deities of the Bible were to be worshipped upon the 7th day, not Sun-day, the first day… On top of that, every bit of Jesus’ traits AND actions, come from PREVIOUS Pagan Sun gods, with some Buddhism thrown in.(Prodigal Son/Mustard Seed) See, the occult-is where all this stuff originated, so THEY don’t want YOU, learning where it all comes from. And they REALLY don’t want you learning about our Reptilian creators, see, that would screw everything up cos The SUN god, and the REPTILIAN ANUNNAGI, don’t need money, like they’ve been telling you all these years! Remember-in reality-Curches are businesses, Masonic Lodges are not!
