Important Apology
From the bottom of my heart
Dear friends and family...
As I was praying about comments received, which I am very grateful for, and delving more into what I had posted, and those sites I shared, the Lord showed me a very cunning thread of deceit running through it all. Then I was reminded of several scriptures, of which I will now take to heart and stop sharing questionable videos and sites. I should have checked more thoroughly before posting, but one I didn’t see, even after reading DeAnne Loper’s book, and now I am sorry I shared her website, and the book. There is a lot of truth, and many scripture references, which made me trust in it. Not to get too detailed, I spent all day yesterday reading articles from her site, and I was getting ready to share the main article, which most of her information is based upon. But then I went to another of his articles, and was blown away by what I saw, and was immediately sorry I had endorsed her site and book, and the Elizabeth C video. Because many people may not see what was being proclaimed or taught in it, as I didn’t, and be taken in by it. Perhaps similar to what took my Sister away from the Bible she used to love, by going to sites that were listed in the front, which never should have been shared! It’s pulling many away from the Bible. And she embraced all those wayward practices and cunningly devised fables and made shipwreck of her faith in God. FROM HER BIBLE!
This man DeAnne shared, Chalette Smith was very convincing, and much of this article IS true, in his or her other article, it is promoting mysticism, and more...if you want to see what I mean, I posted them below. BUT WARNING that they are promoting another spirit…New Age, and spiritism. Spirit of error.
You will see it blatantly as I did. So I do not endorse it, but share in warning. and since DeAnne shared him, she should have known what his beliefs are, and warned against his teachings. I was warned by another about the Masonic and Jesuitical Full Preterism, which is what is being promoted here, so now I will be much more careful and do more research before sharing anything but scriptures, and pray for them!
I am sharing this only to beware of its teachings! Not to be taken in by them.

That site was embracing the very thing they had warned about and was teaching others to do so! It’s hard to explain without sharing the information, but I’ve learned my lesson! Here’s what the Lord gave me in warning, and the admonishment that I had fallen back into heaping together teachers, as in 2 Timothy 4:3
2 Tim. 4:3 - For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; (4) And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
And also this scripture in Ecclesiastes 12:14 - And further, by these, my son, be admonished; of making many books there is no end, and much study is a weariness of the flesh. (13) Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter; Fear God, and keep his commandments; for this is the whole duty of man. (14) For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.
Romans 16:19 -I am glad therefore on your behalf: but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good, and simple concerning evil.
The conclusion and most important scripture I was reminded of is Acts 26:22 (19-25)
(22) Having therefore obtained help of God, I continue unto this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying none other things than those which the prophets and Moses did say should come; that Christ should suffer, and that he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and should shew light unto the people, and to the Gentiles.
And that is what I will do. Not deviating from scripture and songs of praise to our King, and be more careful who I share, as Junior warned. I thank all who commented and helped me see my error, and questioned the validity of what I shared. As with most cunningly derived ‘teachings” or deceivings, there is much truth, but mixed with errors or erroneous teachings, which could lead someone astray, and I would feel so awful if what I shared led even one person astray! So I ask your forgiveness also, as I asked the Lord last night.
There is another book I had highly regarded also, and had marked up like I have my Bible, spending many hours in it, and was led to check out it’s author also. I had done that once, but missed his connections. As with many, he had strong ties with the Catholic church. What did I learn? No other book should take precedence over our Bibles!
William Hendriksen, More Than Conquerors
Research into his life showed me that he was Calvinist, Amillennial, and Catholic, with divinity degrees, and also contributed to commentaries and construction of the corrupted NIV. I put far too much stock in his book, which I marked up as much as my Bible, especially all the many scriptures he used to back up everything, but now I see that they were “leavened” to include the present church as ideal, (as, or equal to the heavenly--Catholic, of course) sacraments, leadership, etc. I wish I had searched in depth before reading that book. I learned a lot from it which is true, but...now have to rethink Amillennialism and some other things. Calvinism!
New age deception is very sneaky ,it’s portrays teaching very close to Christianity but twisted to its core
Bravo, Praise the LORD for His Faithfulness towards YOU!
The LORD bless you abundantly!
