Methodologies
and Tactics of Satanists to Destroy
Reputations
and Break Down Communications
Introduction
The
nature of our ministry - that of delivering abuse victims from a very
secretive and influential network of underground criminal organisations
with people in high places - means, inevitably, that you become the
target of rumour-mongering, gossip, and outright defamation. We know of
many people, not of this ministry and including humanists concerned
about the welfare of their fellow man, who have been falsely accused on
trumped-up charges for crimes they never committed in order to get them
out of the way when attempts at debunking their research work on these
organisations have failed. Satan attacks on many levels and fronts,
both overtly and subtlely. In the very extreme cases people
'disappear', vanishing without trace, or are apparently the victims of
'accidents' (road 'accidents' are the most common). Using
state-of-the-art technology and having inside knowledge and control of
computer systems and the information highway, through bribery, threats
or placing their own people in key positions, the flow of information
is not only controlled and monitored but not infrequently corrupted
with a view to incriminating and blackmailing or threatening ministers
into silence. Anyone who comes anywhere near disturbing the dark
conspiracy (itself debunked by their own specially hired spin-artists)
is usually set-upon most viciously.
The Purpose of this
Article
The
purpose of this short paper is to state the policy of this ministry
with some examples from our past on how, and how not, to answer
maliciously-minded critics. It is important to understand how these
people use secular psychology to manipulate both those they are
attacking and those whose ideas they are trying to influence their
accusations with. Bear in mind that the most effective way to
incriminate someone is not by means of outright lies - which most
honest people can spot - but by a mixture of truth and lies with a
preponderance of truth. Since the truths can usually easily be
verified, giving the impression of reporting accuracy and impartiality,
this lends credibility to the lies which are carefully sneaked in or to
certain facts subtly twisted and emphasised out of all proportion. The
written word is notoriously open to multiple interpretation because of
its lack of emphasis and inflection. Thus the sentence, "You are a
liar" can be understood differently depending what you wish to stress:
(a) You are a liar; (b) You are a liar;
(c) You are a liar; and (d) You are a liar,
whilst sounding similar, do suggest different things.
Appreciating Change
I
have been in the ministry for twenty years now and the landscape of
both our theology and missionary drive has changed considerably. In the
early years we were more or less ignored because what we taught, though
strict and 'radical' (by liberal standards), did not rock any
particular boats and because our presence was so tiny and we were
virtually unheard of. In those days the only people we really upset
were the Mormons for it would be true to say that we very much homed in
on them as potential converts. And though we are still a very small
group (only several thousand strong, unlike the early days when we were
less than a hundred), our internet presence is large and has made a
major impact, giving the (unpremeditated) impression (because we
clearly state we are small) that we are larger than we really are (even
this, ironically, has been used by critics to accuse us of dishonesty,
as if an internet site's size ought somehow to be scaled down and made
proportionate to the numbers of members). However, even that has not
been the point of controversy that has provoked the recent backlashes:
the greatest criticisms have really only come in the last five years
since we began our deliverance ministry and we, as a result,
inevitably came across the most wicked and depraved of all groups, the
satanist covens whose survival depends on the utmost secrecy and whose
criminal activities are therefore vigorously protected by all means.
However, the earliest 'causes of complaint' were, and still are, the
fact that we are 'small' and therefore 'unknown' in the sense we are
not to be found in every town like the Lutherans or Pentecostals - much
like the first Christians were viewed with suspicion amongst the
Talmudists of Yah'shua's and the apostles' day.
The Earliest Critics and
Their Modus Operandi
It
is hard to say what exactly provoked the earliest backlashes but
included in the list would almost certainly be our belief in the
possibility of more revelation (with all its attendant risks,
which we acknowledge), our challenge to all the 'traditional' credes
but for the Apostolic, our acceptance of polyagmous minority groups in
Africa (principally Kenya) and elsewhere, and our belief in a strict
separation from worldly values and family-centredness in a world where
family structures are not only being eroded but positively destroyed.
There will always be people who have gripes and there will always be
people who think they have a religious or polictial mandate from heaven
or from that mythical and mystical entity called the 'state', to weed
out 'suspicious', small and new groups. It's the way of human nature
and it's always likely to be around. People don't like change,
innovation or challenge as a rule (particularly not from a small
minority) - anything that challenges the status quo or rocks
the boat is always vigorously opposed by those who have an interest
in the status quo and who accordingly derive status, power,
wealth and prestige from it. They need not be a small élite like
the Scribes and Pharisees but can include the broad masses who have
been duped or brainwashed into supporting and idolising the
élite.
Attack the Shepherd,
Scatter the Sheep
The
principal targets of such groups are invariably the leaders and,
inevitably, their founders: "strike the shepherd and the sheep scatter"
is the familiar addage. It is not long before groups whose doctrines
are theologically disjunctive with the majority belief system to have
their leaders critically (and supposedly 'objectively) psycho-analysed.
To be sure, there is plenty of subject material for the psychologists
amongst the Jones', Koresh's, Smith's, and others, not to mention the
psycho-analysts themselves who more often than not are more disturbed
than the objects of their criticism. When I left Mormonism I read a
number of books and articles psycho-analysing the Mormon 'Prophet',
Joseph Smith, such as by Jean Brodie, and each and every (usually
contradory) conclusion of these historical 'analysts' was graded and
heavily influenced by the school of psychological thought they adhered
to. It is the same with the Muslim 'Prophet' who has been 'diagnosed'
as epileptic amongst other things. They may all be interesting
hyotheses, but hypotheses they remain, and people will always colour
those they hate or fear in the strongest possible dye so as to divert
the critical eye from themselves, in their consciences knowing (or
denying/suppressing) the cosmic truth that "in the same way you judge
others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be
measured to you" (Matt.7:2, NIV). Every critic must live with his or
her conscience and answer to the Divine Judge.
Greater Complexity Than
is Admitted
People
are complex inner universes of multiple motivations and impulses which
they barely understand themselves which is probably why Yah'shua
counselled people to think twice before attacking the character of
others. Yahweh's Torah states that if an accuser falsely
accuses, then the accuser shall be judged and punished for the crime
that he has accused his victim of. Little wonder that Yah'shua warned
people to hestitate before judging.
It
is possible to selectively isolate samples or incidents from anyone's
life and assemble a theory about that person. But take the different
groups of materials and try to make coherent sense between them is at
best dicey and at worst futile if you don't even understand the
workings of your own inner mind and heart. You just have to look at the
analyses of Bibical characters by atheists to know that you can impute
virtually what you like on anyone. Obviously someone who does not
believe in prophetic visions is going to try to prove that such a
person is mentally ill and delusional. We know the fate of believers in
the former Soviet Union whose final destiny was often a psychiatric
clinic. So people will 'anaylse' others based on all kinds of
assumptions and belief systems and you will never find across-the-board
agreement. In examining any critic's analysis of another person
and religious movement it is therefore vital to find out just
what his own belief system is, whether he actually lives
it or is only acting it out (like the Pharisees of yesteryear) and
therefore through what interpretive lens he is seeing the world. This
is one reason why the evolutionay and humanistic proponents of 'higher'
Biblical criticism rarely agree on anything and why there are as many
theories as there are critics. That alone should make people stop short
and question the objectivity of such analyses, and whether, indeed,
ultimate objectivity is possible in an existentialist universe. And it is
existentialist to the existentialist since their morality is not based
on any absolute truth but on the shifting mores of humanistic society
and thinking.
As Many Interpreters as
Interpretations
Whoever
you may be, you will inevitably intepret and come to conclusions about
people and belief systems based on your private spiritual or
intellectual lenses, itself a complicated thing based on hundreds of
factors but including education, emotional perception and life
experience. You may even find some of them very disturbed people
indeed. Therefore as a basic rule one must know the assumptions
upon which a critic's world-view is based. It is no accident, I
feel, that our latest critic refuses to identify either himself (or
herself) or his belief system, andf that he is supplying his
information to a 'cult-watch' group run by a Jew (Rick Ross) who has
classified all Messianic Jews as 'cultic' simply' because he
believes that it is immoral to evangelise and recruit Jews to
Christianity simply because he doesn't like Christianity (not that's
bias in the extreme)! We know nothing about him. We are simply being
asked to believe in his method of analysis and interpretation,
presumably based on the fact that his verbage appears to be
intellectual and sound.
Two Approaches to the
Critics
We
for our part approach all criticism from two angles. The first is the
Biblical, which we maintain is absolute truth, and we use this against
or in defence of those who also maintain they are 'Bible-believing
Christians' or Messianic. Against the rest we use plain logic and
demonstrate (as it is is easy to do) that all other judgments are
relativistic and must therefore be seen within the context of the
belief systems and intellectual and philosophical humanistic judgments
of a pluralistic society which (though a contradiction of terms in my
view) is nevertheless the one we live in in the West and must deal
with. It is easy to demonstrate that the critics coming against us out
of this milieu do not uphold, and are defective in, their own professed
standards of morality and judgment. And using this system of 'morality'
(if one can even call it that) it is possible to 'demonstrate' that we
are 'defective' in our turn. The result, though, is to simply prove
that everyone is defective and that for the system to survive, our
mutual defectiveness must be accommodated or even embraced. And it is
here the hypocrisy sets in because everyone knows, deep down, that they
believe that theirs is the only system they believe and
whilst they profess tolerance (in order to be politically
correct on the surface) they would rather that the other belief
systems were disproved and eliminated, and indeed set about doing this
unconsciously and before long their real prejudice reveals itself as
they become more and more overt. They are double-minded and
hypcritical. We who believe in the absolute truth of Torah and
the New Testament have a much easier task being single-minded and
truthful since we don't play mind games like they are forced do in
order to 'balance' the contradictions.
Thus
we have this total contradiction in the neo-pagan liberal system we
have which on the surface professes acceptance of Christianity provided
that that Christianity does not claim to have exclusive truth (i.e.
they only accept neo-pagan or neo-humanistic liberal 'Christianity').
What we have in reality are two categories of belief today in the
liberal neo-pagan mindset, namely those who are all-inclusive (the
'good' guys - like New Age, Hinduism, Buddhism, liberal Christianity
etc.) and those who are exclusive ( the 'bad' guys - Islam, Orthodox
Judaism and conservative Christianity and Messianism). In the new
paradigm the latter are, by psycho-gibberitic analytical
claptrap, being classified as 'cultic', 'dangerous' and 'anti-social'.
(I am not saying that orthodox Judaism and Islam are not potentially
'cultic'. Merely that they are defined as being so by the liberal
mindset because they claim exclusive truth. The point is they
are not the exclusive truth as they maintain).
It
is important that we become aware of this trend and understand that the
drive is to force people to accept that there is no such thing as
absolute truth and to classify those who believe there is as
dangerous cultists. That is the underlying current we must constantly
keep in focus when answering critics for we need to know what their
position is on the nature of truth. Most, I dare say, adhere to the
occultic view that everyone is their own truth and that to claim
exclusive truth (as Christ did) is in some way indicative of a cultic
mentality. (Of course those who make this exclusivity claim in fact
believe in lies may indeed be said to be cultic since by definition
there can only be one absolute truth).
The Dishonesty of the
'Scientific' Priesthood
Now
I am a graduate of Oxford University and I worked in a research
laboratory for a year, preparing academinc papers along with my
collegues. (If anyone wants to see mine, I have a copy of it here, and
it is available in the Oxford University Biochemistry Department
archives. It is entitled, Biochemical and Physiological Studies on
Phenylalanine Ammonia-Lyase in Beta Vulgaris Leaf Discs.
If you do read it, be warned - it is not exactly a Nevil Shute
thriller and unless you are a dedicated academic who has an interest in
the biochemistry of plant wounding, it will probably send you to
sleep).
The
theses of my fellow academics were carefully crafted in spotless
English and in the expected academic style. But beneath the seeminlg
unassailable and impeccable veneer of scholarship there lay a word that
to the outside world is largely hidden. Squabbling, in-fighting, feuds
between researchers, fiddling the data, ignoring data that contradicts
cherised theoretical positions, stealing other people's work
(plagiarism), and much else besides lies behind much of what was, and
is, prepared in academia. The 'academic priesthood' has its own filthy
hands. Moreover, you can only get funding for what the élite
want you to study which means, amongst other things, that research
critiquing Darwinism is always turned down, as was my proposal for a
postgraduate thesis when I applied for a grant at Cambridge University.
Likewise, try to publish anything challenging the evolutionary
golden calf in an academic journel and you will never be heard.
You might say that the secular priesthood has become its own mediaevel
autocratic 'Roman Catholic theocracy'.
Many
of the people in this ivory-towered world know this but the inner
workings are largely shielded from the outside world. These academics,
with their white laboratory robes (and remember, I used to wear them,
including the fancy black ones with colourful capes and mortar boards
of worldly prestige of the University itself), have become the modern
atheistic priesthood to whom the ignorant masses (who are,
incidentally, not taught much logic in school anymore) are supposed to
admiringly bow down to and impeccably trust in every judgment relating
to the known universe as centuries ago was expected of the Roman
Catholic religio-political machine.
Things
are not always whats they seem to be. We do, after all, have a century
of propaganda experience behind us, refined and broadcast by fascists,
communists, and various religionists. It's surprising, in fact, the
more you dig, just how little truth there is, the facts being massaged
and rearraged to promote the agenda or presidential reign of the day.
And the art of political spin-doctoring, a phenomenon of the late 20th
century, perfected in the USA and now imitated worldwide, is in full
swing now. We live in a world of crafted illusion. But inevitably the
crafters claim to be the puveyors of truth. Today's illusion-builders
are undoubtedly the Illuminists and Satanists who have passed through
the state schools of espionage and military warfare: they get the best
kind of 'education' that both honesty and dishonesty can buy. Because
their tools are supernatural (demonic), their lies are highly
intelligently and skillfully crafted. So it takes experienced
intellectuals (and not a small amount of bravery, when one's life at
stake), who know about the invisible realm, to stay one step ahead of
them and expose them.
Of
course there are honest people (thank goodness) and those who would
like to be (but who are duped for lack of data and/or analytical
skills, but who can be re-edutaed with a little patience, willingness
and investment in time). And with some basic truths under your belt, it
is possible to expose much of the lying and deception that goes on
these days. For those who believe in, and accept, divine inspiration,
there is the spirit of discernment; for those who do not, there are
basic principles of logic that can be applied. As believers we appeal
to both as two separate but complimentary streams.
Examples from the Past
Throughout
my two decades of ministry I have been accused by a good many people
and have, naturally, taken steps to defend myself and our ministry in
general. It is not always possible to ascertain the motives behind such
attacks though some have been plain enough. We have, at various times,
had associations with other ministries and tried to work together. One
of our ministers was recruited by one such ministry and offered a
poisition of leadership because of his experience andf their shared
interest in a particular doctrinal field. In time, though, the terms of
his appointment were quietly changed (without him always being
informed) as the ministry evolved, and the initial freedom he had been
given to express his own opinions (in a charitable spirit where there
were difficulties) was at length curbed. He was expected not only
eventually to slavishly agree with the one in charge but a demand was
even made that he remove his very excellent webpage as a gesture of
solidarity so that the public would not have to go to multiple sources,
thereby supposedly making the public witness more effective.
When
our minister tired of, and left after, this treatment, several followed
with him, justly criticising the authoritarian and dishonest
methodology of this ministry. Not long afterwards, our whole ministry
came under 'scrutiny' with an appointee being delegated by him to check
our historical claims, speak with former members, and even pry into our
bank accounts and private lives. The accusation was levelled that we
were a money scam and not at all living what we preached, and only
interested in dishonestly obtaining funds. And even though not a shred
of evidence was ever found, let alone published, to substantiate the
claims, no apology was ever issued, leaving the gossip to multiply
unchecked. This man's ministry has since flourished but at the expense
of truth and honesty and my own reputation. He is in Yahweh's hands to
do with as He pleases and we don't concern ourselves about him or his
dishonest methods. He has his own conscience to live by.
Another
man used to go around the various internet chatrooms claiming that all
my academic qualifications were a fraud, that I had never been to
Oxford University, and that my Masters Degree was bogus. I have sinced
published all my certifications on the internet for all to see. This
man never did offer an apology or retract his lying accusation and
there are doubtless many, who do not want to investigate the truth, who
still believe him and who are still spreading gossip.
Finally,
a group of Lutherans banded together many years ago and accused me of
being a pervert because we supported, amongst other things, the rights
of Kenyan Christian polygamists to continue living their lifestyle in
the face of opposition by the traditional denominations (Catholic and
Anglican/Presbyterian, who ironically and hypocritically accommodate
the practice thsemselves in this and other Third World countries on
condition that their newly baptised polyagmous parishoners do not
expand their families further - other violently split the families
apart and cause much suffering and impoverishment). By selectively
taking materials from our website out of context and selectively
photocopying extracts from stolen letters quoted out of context, they
attempted to convince my employer that I was a dangerous man who, by
virtue of my position of responsibility as a school teacher, should be
dismissed 'for the safety of the children'. Fortunately, by employer,
who knew me well over many years, smelled a rat and simply dismissed
the whole matter without further ado. It was an unpleasant and
distatasteful experience but served the purpose of strengthening my
resolution not to be intimidated by such dishonourable people. Only
when I threatened the people concerned with legal action for
harrassment did they finally desist, but not before one of them had
threatened to come and beat me up. Amusingly, the day he was to set out
on his wicked appointment, the kitchen of his house caught fire and was
burned out, forcing him to remain at home and leave me to go home
unmolested. The same people attempted to take me to court, have me
deported from Norway, put me in prison, and have my children seized by
Social Services. Needless to say they totally failed in their evil
attempts, Yahweh warning me ina dvance in vision of their wicked
designs.
I
have been accused of many things since, which do not merit documenting
or commenting on, because of their distasteful and malicious character
and self-contradictory 'evidence'. Perhaps the worst rumour that was
spread (by the man claiming I never went to Oxford University), without
a shred of evidence (because there never was any) was that I had got an
Australian hitch-hiker pregnant (who never existed, incidentally),
dumped her, and that she had returned home and committed suicide after
a severe bout of depression. The accuser, whom I have good reason now
to believe is a satanist, then proceeded to tell everyone how he, a
medical practicioner (actually, he has some New Age 'qualification' to
be some sort of Chinese Taoist herbalist) had devoted his time
consoling the distraught parents of the hapless girl and had devoted
his life to getting me into prison. The spin was good, no names were
ever given or evidence presented, those who did not care for evidence
swallowed it, and the rest dismissed it for what it was: a vicious yarn
with the sole purpose of defamation.
I
fully expect a new wave of 'stories' to begin circulating following
recent encounters with the satanist covens who have been spectacularly
defeated. We recall the encounter by Elijah with the prophets of Baal
at Mount Carmel, a scene similar to which has repeated itself in our
day amongst us. The response of the main enemy of the prophet, Queen
Jezebel, was to turn to a second strategy - the law of the land - which
she sought to manipulate and twist to strike fear in Yahweh's servant.
Though initially turning tail and fleeing, he at length returned and
witnessed Jezebel's humiliating and gruesome death, which had been
foretold by him. Whatever the strategem employed by the wicked, the
result is the same. They will be exposed and destroyed by Yahweh
Himself.
However,
if you are not one who believes in God or the miraculous, as the
majority in our neo-pagan culture do not, then obviously talk of the
supernatural means little. In terms of the desired result, which is the
truth about the activities of these covens who are the main instruments
of persecution, accusation and criticism, it actually does not matter,
since you don't have to believe in God and demons to be revolted, and
acknowledge the barbarism and evil of, ritual torture, rape and murder
which the covens habitually practice. Anyone caring to seriously
investigate the claims we make will, if they can get past the
spin-doctoring of these perverts, soon discover the reality, or make an
early trip into the next world. We also have the testimonies of the
victims themselves whom we have spent years helping, without cost, I
might add, for we never charge for our services. It is not difficult to
disprove the accusations that we are raking in money like some cultic
groups because we provide all our written material and prayer services
free and live very frugally. All tithes go to the local congregations
since our people are too poor to support headquarters, and so we expect
nothing of them.

The Current Campaign
Ever
since we started becoming involved in deliverance ministry and working
with SRA victims we have become aware that our email, IMs and telephone
conversations were being monitored. One 'investigator', whom we believe
may well be a satanist, has started a website called 'NCCG Concern'
which is making an 'investigation' for the secular Rick Ross anti-cult
organisation (the one who thinks converting to Jews to Christ is
'cultic activity'). One or two snippets of information have been
funnelled to him (or her) through hacking into MSN and Yahoo IM
conversations, deliberately planted by us in private conversations, to
see if we were being monitored. So the 'investigator' is either himself
involved in dishonest practice (i.e. he is a criminal in the eyes of
the law) or is being fed information by the satanist covens or other
dishonest persons. They monitor all their people who show signs of
trying to escape the covens - they even have bogus deliverance
ministers to whom they nudge their potential escapees towards who are
coven members and who reprogram them through hypnosis, enabling the
victims to be recaptured and placed back into the cycle of torture
should they actually physically escape.
On
one occasion I hinted to someone I was IMing on Yahoo telling him I was
on my way to the airport to Moscow to assist the escape of an SRA
victim in Russia. The coven response was immediate and they had a man
monitoring me in a car parked by the roadside. He was there all day
because when I returned from town on what was, in fact, a shopping
trip, he was still there, and when he saw me returning I could see him
angrily cussing. We know our phones are tappened and email read too so
there is actually no privacy online - hacking into email and IMs is an
easy task which, as one satanist told me once, does not require someone
with the 'brains of a rocket-scientist' to do. She was impersonating
one of my clients after the covens had tried to persuade me that she
was dead - they often rig fake deaths (usually car accidents) to make
their people 'disappear' (and even arrange fake funerals). Since she
was sympathetic to the plight of my client, she shared some insider
secrets - and though a lot of material of this nature coming from
covens is premeditated misinformation, there are genuine sympathisers
who want to help and be helped. Most are prisoners of satanism against
their will. So be aware: online chats are not private.
Within
the last 24 hours of preparing this article, emails have been sent to
members of our online groups to warn them that we are a 'cult' and to
visit their 'NCCG Concern' website which we have linked to our own main
group and made some preliminary comments about. To read about this,
join NCCG Cyber Community and find the link at 'NCCG Critics'.
It
is also important to realise that satanist spin-doctors pose online as
being benevolent informers on people like ourselves. They are not
amateurs and know now to make themselves credible by actually
supporting or contributing to Christian websites that are trying to
expose genuine cultic groups. In this way they gain credibility and
respect. They even have people purporting to be exposing satanic cults
but who circulate information that is already known (and is therefore
harmless) about satanism, and sufficient misinformation to get people
off the covens' trail.
I
am so much reminded of the 'philanthropic' work of a drug baron in
Pakistan who started and financed a drug rehabilitation centre in
Karachi for the very people his organisation had got addicted in order
to gain credibility and respect in the war against drugs as well as to
get inside information from the police on their operations against his
own drug syndicate. One should never underestimate the cynicism of the
enemy. Satanists have heavily infiltrated the universities and academic
institutions (they are especially fond of psychiatry), medical
profession (where 'accidents' can happen and be carefully covered up -
one of our own people was poisoned this way with wrong medication here
in Sweden that resulted in his kidneys being destroyed, leading to a
premature death), the police (who, when called to investigate satanist
crime, can either tip the covens off in advance of an impending raid or
dismiss cases as 'lacking sufficient evidence' to prosecute), and other
authorities. This gives them a feeling of invincibility and often leads
them into rash actions owing to vain confidence. They have infiltrated
the local municipality here and use their road workers (for instance)
to monitor us when needed. However, Yahweh is greater than all of this
and their efforts are ultimately in vain.
NCCG Policy in Smear
Campaigns
We
believe, first and foremost, in holding the higher moral ground and not
responding on the enemy's conditions. He has a large armoury of devices
which people need to be aware of, most of which play on gullibility and
manipulated conscience. Two things need to be born in mind when the
enemy lauches smear campaigns:
If
the enemy has been monitoring your telephone conversations, IMs, and
emails, or has otherwise broken the law in order to get private
information about you (such as snooping in your property, intercepting
snail-mail, hacking into computers to read private files, etc.) then he
is de facto a criminal. And our policy is not to
trust, let alone listen to, a criminal, but expose him. We know that
even supposedly 'concerned' people employ private agencies who use
criminals for this purpose. That makes them, ipso facto,
criminals themselves, by association, as any court of law will tell
you. So check out what illegal activities accusers have been involved
in, or their sources.We do not have dealings with criminals,
period.
We
do not need to defend what we know to be right from scripture and
refuse to accept the paradigm that you are 'guilty until proved
innocent'. That may be the practice in some nations like France but it
is not the case in most countries and is certainly not the Biblical
one. A man is innocent until proven guilty. Moreover, who is to judge
him, and on what grounds?
It
is possible to waste a lot of valuable time defending oneself
against malicious people. As Christians we are commanded in Scripture
to redeem our time. Hostile online groups have been formed against us
in the past and we could have wasted lots of time defending ourselves
there if we had wanted to. There were so many distortions, lies, false
witnesses and fabrications that it became obvious to the honest there
that there was little or no integrity amongst the moderators who werre
pursuing a hostile agenda (they refused to discuss accusations with us
just like the current critics - they also had their spies and moles in
our groups so we answered them there as we do today). Even when false
reports were demonstrated to be fabrications, they continued to be left
posted and uncorrected, which destroyed the credibility of the managers
of the hostile groups. We saved these posts for illustrative purposes.
The groups simply folded up as people got less and less interested in
them. 'Negative' groups, who seek to attack and not to edify, who are
proven to be gullible in accepting false witnesses because their whole drive
is to attack rather than pull down, tend to be self-defeating. Honest
people tend not to be drawn to such groups and so decent Christians
should stay away.
In
the past when I have asked my critics (who claimed to be Christians) to
show me the true way by witnessing of their faith if I was
wrong, so that I could repent and change, have almost always
refused, demonstrating that the salvation of my soul is not their
object, but its destruction. They were actually invited to join
our groups and were offered generous posting rights. They never
accepted, even when we offered to make the groups public for the
purpose. Their agenda was plain for all to see.
Gossip and Tale-Bearing
One
of our ministers wrote a short article about tale-bearing or gossipping
which is sustained in general by this ministry and which I reproduce
here as it still reflects our current policy:
The
relating of the personal secrets of others without their express
permission is not permitted. Talebearing dishonours the people in
question, creates distrust, and weakens the fellowship. Posts
containing personal details of people that they would not wish revealed
in public will be censored.
Leviticus
19:16a, You must not go up and down as a talebearer among your people
Proverbs
11:13, A talebearer reveals secrets: but he that is of a faithful
spirit conceals the matter.
Proverbs
17:9, He that covers a transgression seeks love; but he that repeats a
matter separates friends.
Proverbs
18:8, The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into
the innermost parts of the belly.
Proverbs
26:20, Where no wood is, there the fire goes out: so where there is no
talebearer, the strife ceases.
Tale-bearing
so very rapidly disintegrates into slander for which there are very
serious consequences spiritually. Such can cause long-term or even
permanent damage to relationships, precipitating domestic conflict,
divorce and aborted romances. This is evil (1 Tit.5:13). Private,
domestic relationships and their troubles (and all relationships have
troubles) do not concern the public domain or even other concerned
Christians (2 Thes.3:11) but the parties themselves and the pastoral
counsel that has been appointed. Tale-bearing and slander put stumbling
blocks before believers' and unbelievers' feet alike (Lev.19:16).
This
kind of activity is one of the hallmarks of the last days (2 Tim.3:1-3)
and must be reproved and corrected by responsible Christians and
especially those people in ministerial positions (1 Tim.3:11;
Tit.2:1-5; 3 Jn.9-10). What tale-bearers and slanderers actually do is
to prevent themselves from inheriting the Kingdom of Heaven
(Gal.5:19-21) and actually merits them being cut off (1 Cor.5:11;
6:9-10). Though they may pay lip service to authority they are not
infrequently full of contempt for it (Jude 10-11, 14-16).
If
you come into contact with tale-bearers and slanderers, it is your duty
to ignore them and break off all contact after warning them that what
they are doing is harmful and unchristian. Anybody who repeats private
family matters to others, without their consent, in this community will
be warned to desist. If they continue they will be thrown out.
This
community has previously (before detailed rules of conduct were
established) witnessed such activities as well as their destructive
effects. The mistrust and divisiveness which it breeds simply harms the
Body of Christ and reduces what is a sacred and holy principle -
marriage - into a soap opera for the entertainment of carnal man. We
will not tolerate that here. Furthermore, those who take delight in
such things, and who regard these things as theatre or entertainment
are not welcome here.
In
regard to private family life we refuse to comment on principle because
it is nobody's concern, and especially not malicious parties. We
particularly find it obnoxious when personal intimacies between
husbands and wives are published after hacking because this is nothing
less than the spirit of adultery. What apsses between husbands
and wives in the romantic realm is, as far as we are concerned, their
marriage bed, which is holy and sacred. We won't even repond to
romantic or sexually explicit material, assuming it is even genuine,
because this makes what is holy into pornography. Therefore we rightly
view such people as adulterers and pornographers who as far as Yahweh
is concerned are under a spiritual death-sentence.
It
must be remembered that it is extremely easy to doctor evidence -
emails, IMs and even pictures can be changed and digitally altered. We
have advanced beyond the crude falsification of pictures (for example)
that characterised old-fashioned film (a classic is one is one in which
Trotsky has been removed from a picture with Stalin following Lenin's
death on a speaking platform in order to boost Stalin's position -
Trotsky was later assassinated in Mexico by Stalin's henchmen. It's
easy to spot such fakes but nowadays the art is very
sophisticated along with forgery in general. Just look how complicated
modern banknotes are). So if people come a long claiming to have in
their possession private logs and conversations which were hacked,
simply dismiss them as criminals and perverts and refuse to see what is
offered you privately or what is published online. We will - and I hope
you will also - simply refuse to comment on such material.
Throughout
my ministry accusations of financial and sexual misconduct have
frequently been made, these being the most popular in attempts by the
enemy to discredit Christian ministers. I mentioned the imaginary
Australian hiker earlier. I have been accused of wife-swapping,
pedophilia, bigamy, and other things that I won't even bother
mentioning. You can be quite sure that the enemy will try to do so
again. Since we know the truth, we have clear consciences, and can
categorically state, in Yah'shua's Name, that we have never behaved
immorally in the sexual realm and been true to biblical standards. I
have never commited fornication or adultery, and never will, as Yahweh
is my witness. More than that we refuse to say.
We
have had demands made that we audit our church accounts and we would
indeed have audits were there any funds to audit. We have no objections
to publishing our church bank accounts from time to time. Indeed, the
banks publish an årsoppgave or Yearly Statement for
taxation purposes which we would be happy to make available to honest
parties. We have two accounts in Norway listed under Nye Pakts
Kristne Fellesskap (New Covenant Christian Fellowship) and Den
Nye Pakt (The New Covenant), both former names of NCCG because the
authorities would not allow us to change our name. Occasional donations
and loans are made privately which are invariably in the form of small
sums. Individual congregations and metropoles are responsible for the
auditing of their own accounts as they are autonomous. This is
especially so in India who get their own funding. We do not monitor
their activities.
It
is well known that we spend more than we receive and that we cover most
of our costs from our own pocket. And as for allegations of sexual
misconduct, quite frankly we have no intention of reponding to such
slander. Our home life is private, consistent with biblical practice,
and can be attested to by the many who know us and have stayed with us.
I make it a rule not to discuss my family life with anyone but
close friends because I consider this private, and I frankly couldn't
care less if people rail and rant about that. This is the same position
maintained by all our ministers and members. We consider marriage
sacrosanct and will not open it to public scrutinty to dispell the lies
of those with evil-intent. This, incidentally, includes our polygamous
families in Kenya and elsewhere who practice a lifestyle a lot of
people hate but which is wholly biblical and none of anyone's business.
Thus we have an unapologetic policy of not discussing our family life
by neither affirming nor denying anything. To protect polygamous
families in Africa we do not affirm nor deny the lifestyle they
practice where in such countries they could get into trouble after a
positive affirmation. (This is not a problem in Kenya but in some
countries where Catholic 'morality' prevails - former French, Belgian,
Spanish and Portuguese colonies - they have to be circumspect).
We
counsel all our people to follow the same policy. It's your
moral right to protect your families. Furthermore, it should be clearly
understood that nobody is under any obligation to comment on something,
or defend yourself, just because someone else says you should. Yah'shua
remained silent many times when He was falsely accused. The
manipulation of people's consciences such as claiming that a dishonest
person always remains silent should be dismissed for what it is: a
half-truth. Liars frequently remain silent, it is true, but that does
not mean that honest people have an obligation to 'tell all' to simply
clear their name. Realistically, there will always be evil people in
this world who, if they can't destroy your reputation, will at least
try to waste your time and energy by getting you to defend yourself by
taking you away from your calling as a minister, family man, or
employee. We have higher obligations than to satisfy the insatiable
demands of perverse or malicious parties.
May
I also remind our people that we owe nothing to those who act
dishonestly or illegally. If someone came to me and accused a fellow
brother by presenting me hacked material from emails or IM
conversations (for example), I would refuse to look at it, because a
hacker is, by default, a criminal. You can check MSN and Yahoo
Privacy Policy to know the legalities of such things. The Bible says
that for a person to be implicated in a crime there must be at least
two witnesses who are fellow Israelites (i.e. not just any Tom, Dick or
Harry). There are plenty of satanists posing as Christians.
They run whole churches, thousands of them, and have done so, in many
cases, for many generations. Just because someone calls themselves a
'Christian' or a 'believer' does not make you or I obligated to treat
them as fellow Messianic Israelites or to be answerable to them. And to
remove the accusation that it is possible to cover up by limiting
yourself to your own people, let it be known that we are a part of a Beit
Din of Messianics based in the USA consisting of many different
Messianic groups worldwide who resolve inter-fellowship disputes and
who carefully check the credentials of anyone bringing forth
accusations. We frequently consult one another when smear campaigns are
launched against our integrity and share information about known
criminals and dishonest activists.
The
Torah requires that accusers make themselves
known and have their credentials and honesty checked. The
'investigator' of groups like 'NCCG Concern' are highly secretive,
using the excuse that if they reveal who they are, their lives might be
threatened. The excuse is weak and cowardly and totally non-scriptural.
Such people always prove to have secret agendas and should be reporved
and shunned.
We
welcome honest criticism made in a spirit of Christian charity as those
who are members of our online Groups know. I allow myself to be
criticised and have on more than one occasion retracted and apologised.
But I don't allow railing accusation. We are all human and should be as
transparent as the safety of our families allows. In the matter of
doctrinal belief and practice, we are totally transparent and there are
no 'secret practices' as we have been accused of. People may ask what
they like in our online groups and expect a straight answer.
Conclusion
NCCG
is not liked, as is plain, not usually because of our theology or the
personalities of our people, but because we are ministering to the most
abused people on this planet, the cast-aways no-one wants to know about
- the victims of Satanic Ritual Abuse. We are disturbing a sinister
underground movement which most people would rather not know existed
because it is so unbelievably evil. The presence of tens of thousands
of violent sadists, many of them in high positions of government and in
'respectable' professions in society (politicians, lawyers, judges,
doctors, teachers, etc.), who stoop to the most depraved activities on
a constant, daily basis just upsets the proponents of such humanistic
and religious doctrines than man is basically 'good'. It disturbs
people's conscience too much and upsets their safety zones. They'd
rather not know that those who are not fully surrendered to Christ are,
in fact, capable of the most inhumane barbarity owing to the carnal
nature in all men and women (and, yes, there are women fully involved
in the covens).
Funnily
enough one of our persecutors from about a decade ago actually likes me
a lot since she has got to know me but she has never apologised for
persecuting me because I converted so many of her family away from her
own tradition. She comes and visits us whenever she wants to and knows
we are a happy fellowship and close to Yahweh. But because she loves
her traditions more that the truth, she still refers to Yahweh as 'our
god' and insists hers is different. She's right, of course, even if her
reasons are somewhat immature. She is, I have to say, the exception,
though. Most remain entrenched in their bitterness and won't 'agree to
disagree' and get on with life. I fell sorry for them.
We're
anticipating hacked and faked IM's and emails to be 'published' in the
immediate future. When they are, remember how they got them and don't
assume they're genuine whatever data they may publish showing IP
addresses and the like. Remember, anything can be forged. If
people like Joseph Smith can make up an entire history of a nation and
theology (with demonic help) called the Book of Mormon, then
don't put it past people to make up imaginative conversations using
real live people. This also goes for 'recorded' telephone
conversations. I remember being shown an audiovisual website recently
in which President Bush was making speeches and saying things he never
said in real life. The editing was clever and seamless. Using
sophisticated computer programs, it is possible to make up imaginary
audiovisual conversations by using the word prints taken from from
genuine taperecorded conversations. Science has become sophisticated.
You can never be sure what is real these days unless you were an
eyewitness yourself, and even them some eyewitnesses have agendas and
can be untruthful, as we know from those who falsely testified at
Yah'shua's trial.
May
Yahweh bless you in your pursuit of truth and shalom. We are
ourselves moving on to continue with the Kingdom mandate and hope you
will join us. Amen.
