John Samson Interview

[@MrCJesslinger]

Used to work at a TBN affiliate TV station, and I edited our local Praise The Lord program. I remember when the TBN firings happened. It was another event God used among many to bring me to where I am today, in a good reformed church under great elders. Thanks be to God, prayers for Mr. Samson's ministry and for those hearing this interview. *P. S. - the common key to freedom from false teachings, and one I saw often lacking in prior churches and friends, is the DAILY reading of SEVERAL chapters of the Bible. His Word will ALWAYS set you straight.

It was 32nd anniversary and the retired founders of the church were there and the wife got up to give a word and admitted they were a word of faith church and how it is biblical it was. I started feeling in my spirit to get out of there. She must have sensed that, because went on a defending Kenneth Copeland rant... That was all I needed to know.

When we pray and ask God for what we need he will do it if we trust and believe in him. I am going to share a testimony. I had a car that was having issues, I took it to the repair shop that my employer deals with. They gave me an estimate of $697 I left it with them while was traveling on vacation, when I came back I contacted them a week after, and the car still was not done and they increased the price twice what they quoted me which is $1300. I ask them not to proceed with any thing. I went home prayed to God asking him to allow someone who knows about car that can give me a better price. Two after I prayed a mechanic walked into my office handed me an invoice, I said to him that I didn't know he repairs vehicle for my company. I told him the problem I am having with my car, he ask me to bring it over I had a wrecker took it their. Low and behold the mechanic called me within a week and told me that my car is done. I ask him the cost of the repair he said $120. I gave him $180 dollars instead that man was soo happy😊 I started to give thanks and praise for his awesome greatness. I have more miraculous testimonies to share but it will be too long. My heavenly father stands by his word he is a faithful father, he never fails. Trust in God with all your might.

My wife in 2005 went into a nursing home and than she too became sick lost her right leg. I prayed for her and our Church Pastor which was the son of the former Pastor. Than this is when I start to question this healing movement and tongues, so on. My wife is 15 yrs older than I, she passed away in 2014. Since that time I didn't go to church every Sunday.

I feel your loss and desperation. I too i've grown in church,a pastors child but now adult and no longer in church with my family. Church is a very toxic and confusing environment. I have done alot of research on this religions especially christianity and found we were decieved from Rome and the councils of Nicea. When the Temple in Jerusalem was destroyed in 70AD,Romans and the Piso family (the then ruling dynasty)took the scrolls and rebranded christianity . Emperor Constantine converted but usurped christianity. From the year 300AD RCC has been manipulating the doctrines one after another till today few remember the correct names of our creator and the son. Proverbs 30:4. So if you want to re construct your faith start from yt names of God in Hebrew. Read a Bible with apocryphal books. Peace to you.

I have seen many healing … miraculous all glory to God and His Son, Jesus. I was in a Charismatic church, but it was not a WOF. There is a difference. I’ve also prayed for others who were not healed, one of which was my husband. And he was an incredible man! What I’ve learned from this and other situations is to trust God and accept His authority and Sovereignty. He gives and takes away, blessed be His Name. Jesus teaches us to pray, “Thy will be done…”, not ‘my will be done’. I’m sorry you lost your and your pastor. It’s a grief hard to bare. But I’ve found that song “Through It All” …. I’ve learned to depend upon His Love” to be so true. My husband passed after 2 years in a nursing home, his family accused me of attempted murder, we list our insurance so we went on Medicaid and list all our assets, I eventually sold our beautiful home, and I’m now in a very small apartment. But I’m healthy! I have my family, I was not found guilty…. lol f course!!! But greedy family thought he had a big savings and thought they should be his guardian… after all, in their eyes I was after his money when we married. No… he made half of what my former husband made, I saw his heart and lived him without any trappings. Through it all, I’ve learned to trust in Jesus, I’ve learned to trust in God…. I hope you can come to the same place… Gid is Sivereign in all our affairs, but we need to acknowledge His Lordship, even when we don’t understand and things don’t work out the way we planned.

Unfortunately it is all in Spanish, it would take a lot of time to examine his sermons and “actions” but I’m sure you have brothers who could translate his preaching for you.

[@gregfisher]

Yeah. My dad was the pastor of a small pentecostal church in SoCal. So, I grew up around some of this foolishness. But, Dad was the real deal kind of person. The guy you saw in the pulpit on Sunday was the same guy you saw in his underwear getting ready for work on Monday. Dad had a kind of proverb he would say, "The Holy Spirit is the perfect gentleman, He never calls attention to Himself. The Holy Spirit is always pointing to Jesus." In my own ministry career--more than 50 years of ordained ministry--that little proverb I learned from my Dad as a pre-teen served me well. Dad never bought into the WOF movement and neither did I. Why? Read that little proverb again.

Yes, Holy Spirit points to Jesus and there is a ministry which is treaching this again! Check out SBN. My husband, a pentecostal evangelist, believed this and always pointed people to Christ.

[@VickyRBenson]

Another Biblical “proverb” that can stand us in good stead is from Revelation 19:10b: “The testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.” Jesus took time after His resurrection to point out how all the Scriptures-from Moses and the Law to the psalms and prophets-spoke of Him. Jesus, during His life, spoke so much of His coming death, burial, and Resurrection as well as the coming of the Holy Spirit, who would show them things to come and bring to their remembrance all that He had told them (including His second coming.) And then John’s final contribution-the glorious revelation of Jesus Christ! It’s all about HIM-the Way, the Truth, and the Life-The Living Word of God who tabernacled among us, and now lives in us.

"For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God, for no one understands him; however, in the spirit he speaks mysteries. But he who prophesies speaks edification and exhortation and comfort to men. He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the church." I Corinthians 14:2‭-‬4

[@brianroads3694]

And how would we interpret this passage? Is the current charismatic version an accurate reflection of what took place in Corinth?

[@Woman_in_the_Wilderness]

@@brianroads3694 regarding tongues, when done in public it must be interpreted and in order (no more than 3 speaking in tongues and taking turns so as not to do so in a chaotic simultaneous manner). Otherwise, tongues are to be spoken in private (in your prayer closet between that person alone and God) for self edification. I would say the "charismatic" movement largely does not honor the Biblical directives when speaking tongues corporately - as it is not done in order and not interpreted for the edification of the congregation as a whole. The Holy Spirit does not operate in confusion.

[@kellyeckert1]

Although it is not indicated consistently in some translations, the distinction between the singular “tongue” and the plural “tongues” is foundational to the proper interpretation of this chapter. Paul seems to use the singular to distinguish the counterfeit gift of pagan gibberish and the plural to indicate the genuine gift of a foreign language. It was perhaps in recognition of that, that the King James Version (KJV) translators added consistently the word “unknown” before every singular form (see vv. 2; 4; 13; 14; 19; 27). Against the backdrop of carnality and counterfeit ecstatic speech learned from the experience of the pagans, Paul covers three basic issues with regard to speaking in languages by the gift of the Holy Spirit: 1) its position, inferior to prophecy (vv. 1-19); 2) its purpose, a sign to unbelievers not believers (vv. 20-25); and 3) its procedure, systematic, limited, and orderly (vv. 26-40). This is singular indicating that it refers to the false gibberish of the counterfeit pagan ecstatic speech. The singular is used because gibberish can’t be plural; there are not various kinds of non-language. There are, however, various languages; hence when speaking of the true gift of language, Paul uses the plural to make the distinction (vv. 6; 18; 22; 23; 29). The only exception is in vv. 13; 27; 28, where it refers to a single person speaking a single genuine language. Speaks not to men but to God is better translated, “to a god.” The Greek text has no definite article (see similar translation in Acts 17:23, “the unknown god”). Their gibberish was worship of pagan deities. The Bible records no incident of any believer ever speaking to God in any other than normal human language. no one understands . . . he utters mysteries in the Spirit: it is an interpretive decision as to whether to understand this as a reference to the Holy Spirit or the human spirit. The fleshly, or carnal, Corinthians using the counterfeit ecstatic speech of paganism were not interested in being understood, but in making a dramatic display. The spirit by which they spoke was not the Holy Spirit, but their own human spirit or some demon; and the mysteries they declared were the type associated with the pagan mystery religions, which were espoused to be the depths that only the initiated few were privileged to know and understand. Those mysteries were totally unlike the ones mentioned in Scripture (e.g., Matt. 13:11; Eph. 3:9), which are divine revelations of truths previously hidden

[@ivanluther3823]

@@Woman_in_the_Wilderness When they began speaking in tongues in Acts 2, they were all speaking in tongues at the same time. So the Bible is not against speaking in simultaneous manner. The requirement for interpretation is only when speaking to people, but to God all can speak at the same time. Thanks!

[@demsyciu]

@@ivanluther3823 you forget that in Act 2, the apostles speak in tongues that understandable by the people at that place. Acts 2:8-9 (KJV) "And HOW HEAR WE EVERY MAN IN OUR OWN TONGUE, WHEREIN WE WERE BORN? Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia,.. " So in Act 2, it's parallel with 1 Corinthians 14:27-28 (KJV) " If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret. But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God." The tounges must be understandable by the people at that room. If not, everyone must silence.

Justin, I went to kings church today and listened to this man speak. What you said to him about god speaking and that being scripture really sunk in on him. He referenced some of that idea in his sermon. The congregation was all very nice and quite kind. I did not take communion today not because i can't, just because I was dealing with something between Jesus and I that made it inappropriate in the moment. That said I saw that what he said in this interview is who he presented himself to be today. I was glad to be able to look in on his church. He will remember me he looked clearly in my eyes several times as I sat and listened to every word earnestly. He spoke of a two edged sword, god spoke to me in that message as it can both cut things away and also do surgery to heal. God asked me to go there today, I felt a sense of urgency so I went. God said to me He needs a Carpenter and so I am. I spent sabbath day yesterday in prayer over a theft that left me with no tools, a great liss to me. So I felt drawn to go this morning and to my amazement the services were held in the church of seventh day Adventists. They only rent the building but I hold a sabbath keeping philosophy of scripture though I am not an adventist. As I pulled into the parking lot I had the thought "full circle". If you would please get this message back to him I did not speak to him but he will know who i am. It will encourage him im sure.

[@triciabarnes268]

I attended an Assembly of God. I asked over and over for someone to explain to me where scripture talks about being slain in the spirit. As well as all the other “ manifestations” - I was told not everything is in the Bible🙃 Thank God, I never saw pressure for speaking in tongues. A little judgement for those who didn’t. My husband (of 26 years). Was a victim of church abuse as a teenager. He hates it when I say that. But, he was used for his gift of piano. He was never treated well or taught any sound doctrine. He also suffered a traumatic youth, loosing his mom to cancer at 18, in 1982. His life fell apart. No one from Church loved on him. The youth Pastor he traveled with, and played piano for. Nothing! I met him many, many years later. I believed he loved the Lord. I was a brand new Christian and single mom of a 1 year old. We married within 6 months. I quickly saw the emotional damage. He’s very shy, quiet, full of fear and ruled by unreal anxiety, has PTSD. At times he was verbally and emotionally abusive. I begged for help at church (Assembly of God). Was told I married him, he wasn’t their responsibility. If I prayed the right way. Had enough faith. The man of God he is called to be, the leader of our home and family. 100% of his healing/salvation was placed on me. 14 years after leaving that church - he still refuses to live life. He’s still riddled by fear and anxiety. We’re new empty nesters. He no longer abuses me with his words. He just rarely speaks. It is so sad. I prayed every possible prayer, prayed scripture, fasted. Read all the marriages books. Tried to submit and let him lead. He doesn’t lead anywhere, he doesn’t want a wife that expects anything of him. In 26 years together l, I don’t think he’s attended church with me 26 times, but maybe. He works. He punches a time clock. That’s all he can do. He’s so miserable- he won’t take care of his health. He’s sad, scared, and lost. Refusing to open a bible and learn what it has to say. I said all of that, because this man has chose to be who and what he is. If the word of faith nonsense worked. He’d be free - probably in full time ministry with a piano. He hasn’t played a piano in 2 years. I couldn’t have worked any harder for his healing and freedom.... he seems to want to be miserable :( It was so freeing to learn I wasn’t responsible for him, his behavior, choices, or decisions. My husband is. God is Sovereign. That’s what matters. I pray for him. It’s very hard to admit this is my life, and I spent to much time working to save him. So glad God freed me!!!!

Thanks for sharing, Tricia! I was too, deceived in this movement for several years. I was treated very badly as well while in this movement; not much fruit of the spirit from charismatics, right? But, at some point, during the years God was bringing me out of the deception, I had to stop being a victim and repent before God for my part. My pride and lust for wanting MORE of prestige, wealth, recognition, power, etc....is based in my sin nature. Thank God, in His wisdom I was a complete failure in the charismatic movement! Today, I don't regret the hurt or pain I expierence, because I see it as chastisement from my heavenly Father. I forgive these people that were suppose to be my family in God; that is all because of the grace and mercy from God. I am to blame for my idolatry of the false doctrine and those I looked up to and wanted to be just like them. Your husband is a sinner, first and foremost. Basically, he sounds like he is angry with God and needs to repent. Pray for God to open his eyes to his own sin and idolatry. Anger turned inward is poison and well cause bitterness, depression and mental illness. Bless you sister and I will pray for your husband to repent!

I’m so glad the Lord has freed you from the blaming yourself for anything your husband has chosen to do.

You're not alone. Cessationism is an extreme reaction to an extreme problem (hyper charismania).

There are however some great continuationist Calvinist preachers out there like Sam Storms who has one of the best books on spiritual gifts.

Because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, for this reason, to keep me from exalting myself, there was given me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to torment me-to keep me from exalting myself! Concerning this I implored the Lord three times that it might leave me. And He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.” Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. Therefore I am well content with weaknesses, with insults, with distresses, with persecutions, with difficulties, for Christ’s sake; for when I am weak, then I am strong. I have become foolish; you yourselves compelled me. Actually I should have been commended by you, for in no respect was I inferior to the most eminent apostles, even though I am a nobody. The signs of a true apostle were performed among you with all perseverance, by signs and wonders and miracles. For in what respect were you treated as inferior to the rest of the churches, except that I myself did not become a burden to you? Forgive me this wrong! 2 Corinthians 12:1-13 - www.biblegateway.com/passage?search=2%20Corinthians%2012:1-13&version=NASB1995

Regarding MS, you need to watch the movie, Living Proof. It’s on Amazon. This has nothing to do with faith but if you have MS you need to watch it.

Above all the flashy and great discernment videos. This one shows a meekness and lowly heart in both of this servants of Jesus Christ.

I remember TBN in its early years when they did have sound teachers. Then they brought in Fred Price, Kenneth Copeland, and the usual suspects.

Kenneth Copeland , Imo has shipwrecked so many people and deserves so much righteous judgement

@@asliketheson You are SO right! I got caught up in the whole PTL Club/Jim & Tammy Bakker/et al schema - a truly satanic trap for hundreds of thousands - ; attended an AOG church and even taught pre-schoolers Sunday School (at 15-16yrs old and less than 6mos "convert"!). It was SO very easy to get all caught up in that, even and especially as a false convert. Thank God I and my, now, husband were led to the Lord through the Godly witness, example and Scriptural teaching of a very dearly loved brother and sister in Christ! Thank you, Brother Justin, for your faithfulness to "dividing the Word rightly" and your constant striving against the powers of darkness at work in the world and among the brethren. May God continue to bless you, your family/associates and your ministry; guiding, providing and protecting you in your service to Him and His Body. - Heidi Roberts
