As i read your vision concerning
Rev. seebaran buchoon (my subject) is the pastor that presided over the wedding
ceremony of my wife and i. my wife grew up under his ministry.he is a wonderful
man of God; loving, caring,fatherly, etc... I however got saved under another
ministry. Pastor buchoon had a history of heart problems for some time, which
eventually led to a heart transplant in
I\'ve learned over the past few years how God informs His people of things to
come, and realize that this may have been one such a warning to the reader.
The enemy can be so subtle in his ways that even the most wonderful of God\'s
people do not realize that he might have a hold on their life. This is
something i\'ve seen even in my marraige.
Anyway, pastor buchoon apparently visited your site two months ago and read
this vision. today is the 18th august 2008, and i have to attend his funeral
tomorrow afternoon. He died at 1:00 am on the 16th august 2008.
Please continue to hear from God and pray for the men and women called to the
forefront of the battle. the enemy indeed has weapons that he uses to attack
the people of God.
Just a thought to consider!!!

I’ve been thoroughly edified by the series on praying in tongues. It's interesting
that such rich wealth of revelation could be online for so long without some of
us knowing - I only got to know of this site recently.
I commend you for making this content available to many people - God bless you
for the good work.
On a technical note, there seems to be something wrong with this page - as I am
typing now, the frame is on top of some other text.

This is Ayman from
picture came to my mind. I was somewhere between fully asleep and fully awake.
In the vision I saw a nice looking man. He was handsome, tall, well-built and
intelligent. I soon heard a clear voice saying, "I gave this man special
abilities for the kingdom". This voice caused me to pay more attention in
my spirit and to keep watching this man carefully. I watched
as the man kept walking here and there. Then, it started to get gradually
darker, until it turned completely into heavy darkness. I kept watching the man
as it was getting darker and darker. Then, to my astonishment I found the man
slept on the grass near the street. He slept on some grass by some
pavement near a wall in the street. It was getting heavier.
Then, I saw two or three evil people approaching the sleeping man. They came
from behind and skillfully put a blindfold on his eyes. The man did not feel
anything as they carefully placed the blindfold over his eyes. I began crying

would wake up he will definitely feel the blindfold and he will surely remove

MOST
"CONTAGIOUS" ANOINTING -
-Andrew Strom.
(sent in by Larry Magnello,
Todd Bentley has declared that his
is the most "contagious" that he has ever imparted to people.
(In other words, the most easily transferable).
And indeed this seems to be the case. It is spreading rapidly throughout the
world.
But what exactly is this anointing? One observer of
the
"anointing" by shaking his head back and forth, and by his body
physically shaking. These manifestations also happen frequently in those who he
imparts to. He will even wave his arms over the audience, shouting, "Fire!
Fire! Fire!" and then people in the audience will start manifesting. Some
appear to be convulsing, and some even as if they are being thrashed by a
spirit."
In a CBN News interview, Todd stated: "Our focus here
in Florida every night is I lay hands on every single person who
comes - whether it's 5,000, 10,000 - And I'm praying every
night, 'God, give it away, give it away, give it away.' And that's the focus
here: Impartation."
And indeed there are more and more reports of this
anointing being transmitted from
As we have already seen, a report from
of a preacher who brought Todd's anointing back from
sensation, was felt all over people's bodies... There were outbursts of joy,
drunkenness and spontaneous healings throughout the meeting."
A man from
people from his fellowship have attended the revival and then
brought the 'anointing' back with them. Here is what he personally saw:
"These are the effects that I have witnessed on people
who have attended this movement and either have had hands laid on them or claim
to have been imparted with "the spirit":
-They come back with this kind of childlike drunken
stupor.
-Descriptions of a burning sensation either in their
veins, heads or stomachs.
-Descriptions of being washed back and forth like the
waves in the ocean;
-Dancing about like drunk...
-Inappropriate yelling and screaming like they're at a
football game;
-Young men whistling over and over and holding their
heads and claiming that they "feel the Holy Spirit about to
split them in two";
-One young man's back two teeth turned completely to
some metallic finish.
-People with their eyes rolled in the back of their
heads and weaving around like they're lost.
-Women just gyrating and pulsating like they're being
ravaged from behind from some unseen force.
-Drunken uncontrollable laughter in the middle of a
solemn prayer time…
-People being "slain in the spirit"... just falling
down and being unable to move (like something's holding them
down)..."
Another eyewitness from the
"A friend of mine invited me to a church where the
ministry team brought back a "Fire" from the
There was no teaching or preaching. Just testimonies.
They talked about their experience in
A Spirit-filled pastor that I know from the
been following Todd Bentley's ministry closely for some years wrote to me about
what he himself has observed since the year 2000:
"My difficulty with Todd Bentley's ministry is not
whether he has recently covered himself with tattoos or pierced
himself silly, but the SOURCE of his power. He keeps changing his position on
this.
Sometimes he says it's the Holy Spirit and a lot of
the time it's his angels…
"Many have said that they believe that
'mixture'.
Personally, I do not believe 'mixture' is involved. I
believe these deceiving spirits have hi-jacked Todd's ministry…
Either the healings are of God or they are not. Which is it?
"People can be healed in spiritualist churches. I have
witnessed, close-up, first hand, people being instantly healed by
mediums and faith healers. I have also seen people healed by
the power of the Holy Spirit. To begin with there is no discernible
difference. However the counterfeit healings soon begin to either
go wrong or something far worse comes upon the person.
"When God heals someone - He adds 'no sorrow.'
"I know Todd started off OK - I was there in his early
meetings…
In September 2000 I stood in front of Todd and gave
him the warning that God gave me for him. "Beware, the leaven
of the Pharisees, lest an angelic leaven enters your
ministry."
"One month later, according to Todd's own account, at
a meeting in
Branham's 'Healing Revival' angel in tow, Todd saw and accepted this spirit
without reservation. His 'angels' have been with him ever since.
"I have written to Todd on numerous occasions and
reminded him of God's warning, alas to no avail.
"When Todd Bentley conducted a healing meeting in a
large charismatic church here in
hands on many people who were apparently healed. I know of at
least one instance where a pastor's wife with cancer was prayed
for by Todd. Soon afterwards she heard voices in her head telling her to 'drown
herself just like her father did'. The poor woman ended up in a mental
hospital, I believe she still has the cancer.
"No-one is following up or keeping records of what
happens to people who have hands laid on them by Todd or others like him.
"I have kept records as far as I can, concerning this
particular church. Over a relatively short period, there has been
a dramatic increase in premature deaths, cancers, marriage
break-ups, sickness and disease amongst the congregation where the leadership
have allowed this type of ministry into
their church.
Many people left the church in fear.
"These are the consequences of following this type of
'ministry' which no-one is either aware of, or wants to address.
I know, I have visited the people in hospital and attended one of the
funerals…"
[END QUOTE]
Meanwhile we find a number of prominent leaders
beginning to declare that this will be one of the greatest revival
movements in history. Some even see it as the beginning of a "new
awakening".
Bob Jones declared that "This move will be a global
move, traveling with signs and wonders all over the world! The third wave is
here!"
As this 'anointing' spreads worldwide, I believe there
are some serious questions that we need to ask ourselves:
Isn't it possible, with all the dubious 'anointings'
and angels and manifestations associated with Bentley's ministry, that what we
are really seeing is a giant 'counterfeit' revival?
Isn't it possible
that if it continues to grow at the present rate, that
it may literally become one of the great "delusions" of the Last Days
- a great deception that has the power to actually deceive, if possible, the
very elect?
These are very serious questions - but I believe they
must be asked - because this 'anointing' is already beginning
to circle the globe.

brought the "fire" back from

Pastors and
Parishioners at Risk
http://www.saveus.org/articles/counterfeit_community.htm
George Barna, in his book Virtual America, revealed
statistics that should break your heart.
• Fifty-five percent of non-Christian Americans
believe it is getting harder and harder to make
lasting friendships.
• Sixty-two percent of “born-again” Christians claim
it is getting hard to make lasting friendships.
• Seventy-three percent of “evangelical” Christians
are finding it difficult to make real friends.
It seems the stronger the alleged commitment to
scriptural authority, the more severe the problem of
our relationships. Conclusion: the more RELIGION, the
less RELATIONSHIP. Something is desperately wrong!
Divided and in a state of dissolution, we stand.
Individualism reigns supreme.
On my daily broadcast, VIEWPOINT, I interviewed H.B.
London, head of pastoral ministries for Focus on the
Family. Our focus was “Pastors at Risk.” He disclosed
that at least 70 percent of pastors in
they have NO friends.
Whatever happened to Christian community? Whatever
happened to the “covenant community” in
we destined to be strangers in the “
community?
The fracture of community is also revealed in the
widening chasm that divides our families. The divorce
rate among professing Christians exceeds that of the
nation at large. The divorce rate among pastors equals
that of their congregations (Hartford Seminary Study),
the second highest of all professions, and divorce in
the “Bible Belt” exceeds the nation at large by 50
percent (Rutgers University Study - “The State of Our
Unions”). Christ may be our Savior, but SELF is king.
Could it be that the Church has taken the lead even in
estranging the family? Counterfeit community is
devastating us and destroying our witness.
William Hendricks, author of Exit Interviews, also
appeared on VIEWPOINT. He revealed that 53,000 people
per week who remain committed to Christ are leaving
through the “backdoor” of
concluded that many parishioners do not believe they
are being told the whole “gospel truth,” that their
unique giftedness and purpose as part of a body is not
recognized, and that the church does not provide true
Christian fellowship and community but has become a
“gospel country club” of Sunday back-slappers who care
little about one another after the worship service.
Add to that the new “mall” methods of mass ministry
and you have a pretense of community utterly void of
natural commitment to one another.
Organizational “unity” programs multiply, rhetorical
unity abounds, but genuine relational substance is
scarce. Why? What is it that frustrates experiencing
the fruit of true unity? Could it be that in our
increasing pursuit of unity we have missed the
community out of which unity is born?
The Real and the Counterfeit
It is said that the best way to identify counterfeit
currency is to study the real thing. The sin nature is
pervasive, and we humans have a distinct propensity to
counterfeit the real in every area of life. This is
true also of such prized commodities as unity and
community. American pragmatism only fuels the
counterfeiting fires, enabling us to stamp “UNITY” or
“COMMUNITY” on relational coinage that lacks the
spiritual or relational “metal” of true unity and
community.
Genuine unity is forged in community. It cannot be
carved out of the cold rock of American
hyper-individualism. Rather, it is hammered out in the
intense heat of relationships being welded together
“in Christ.” The very godhead is an eternal display
and declaration of community... Father, Son and Holy
Spirit – distinct persons, yet one – united in truth
and spirit. Even so, we who are born of the Spirit and
saved through the sacrifice of the Son who declared
himself “The TRUTH” become “one” with the Father. This
was Jesus’ vision in his “high priestly prayer” of
John 17. Jesus said true worshipers must worship Him
both in spirit and truth.
Truth coupled with the warm wind of relationship in
the Spirit is essential to Christian community that
produces the fruit of biblical unity. That
relationship is not just with the Father but revealed
in our communion – common union – with one another.
Just as truth and relationship are indispensable to
our union in Christ, they are indispensable in common
union with one another.
Without the fulness of both truth and relationship
born of the spirit, our faith becomes either a cold
set of creeds or an orgy of conjured feelings.
Compromised truth in pursuit of unity yields nothing
but a cheap counterfeit – sentimentality. Similarly,
conjured feelings of unity without genuine common
union in real relationships mocks the costly currency
of true unity expressed in community.
So how did we come to so readily accept such tinny
counterfeits? Is there an essential “metal” that has
eluded us in producing the coinage of genuine
comm-unity that gives rise to the glorious unity we so
desire? There is, and it is called HOSPITALITY.
Whatever Happened to Hospitality?
There was a time when hospitality was at the heart of
the American home. There was a time when hearts and
homes that practiced hospitality welded families into
community with an invisible glue that let people know
they belonged and were welcome and accepted. And there
was a time twenty centuries ago when one of the
hallmarks of the Church was “behold how they love one
another.” They broke bread together “from house to
house with gladness and singleness of heart,” and the
Church exploded (Acts 2:41-47). Hospitality was the
earthly expression of the eternal hope of believers.
Something dramatic has happened, however, since those
times, causing Christianity Today (May 22, 2000) to
ask the headline question, “Whatever Happened to
Hospitality?” There is a pervasive sense throughout
our land that hospitality is becoming discouragingly
scarce as an art and as an expression of the heart. So
let me ask you, Whatever happened to hospitality?
Many experience “crowded loneliness” – surrounded by
people but lost in the crowd. The spirit of the mall
has become the consumer model for the Master’s church.
There is a growing absence of heart connectedness, a
deep feeling that no one knows my name, or even cares.
The collective effect is the collapse of community, a
conclusion validated by both secular and spiritual
observers. Even our church buildings are increasingly
designed like malls, breeding grounds for artificial
relationships. We belong to the club of strangers
yearning desperately for fellowship. Often even our
small group or cell group efforts become more
methodologies for organizational growth than for
genuine biblical and Kingdom relationships.
Artificiality is becoming normative. And we are
becoming virtually strangers... in the crowd, yet
lonely.
Crowded loneliness is frightening. God well understood
the implications of lack of relationship rooted in
genuine community. He warned
their deliverance from the bondage of
to the stranger. But the insidious roots of
strangerhood have assaulted the American heart,
threatening the very faith that bred our freedom.
Alexis de Tocqueville first diagnosed the danger of
selfish isolationism that threatened the nation. In
Habits of the Heart, sociologists discuss the gravity
of de Tocqueville’s 1830's observations for our time,
noting it was he who coined the term “individualism.”
Individualism has mutated now into
hyper-individualism, a virulent disease of the soul
now threatening to destroy even Christian community
and the God-ordained heart of hospitality that
undergirds all genuine community.
The Divine Antidote
“Hospitality is as close as we will ever get to the
face of God,” declared a rabbi. Hospitality is at the
heart of the Gospel. God was not willing that we, who
were estranged from Him by sin, should remain
strangers. The Father sent forth His Son to extend an
invitation to His home, welcoming those who would
receive His invitation into a holy comm-unity called
the Church. His desire was that we be one in community
with Him even as Christ was, that the world would be
convinced of Christ and His mission.
Hospitality is to reach to strangers. In a very real
and growing sense, we are all strangers here. We must
grasp the God-breathed need for Christ-infused
hospitality to reach the virtual strangers around us,
beginning with those virtual strangers right in our
midst in the household of faith.
Hospitality is glorious, but not glamorous. It is not
an artificial marketing tool but the Master’s
authentic method for birthing and maintaining
relational community. Therefore, the Apostle Paul
stated that anyone in a position of leadership in the
Church must first be “given to” hospitality and be a
“lover” of hospitality. In describing the functional
essence of Christian relationships, Paul made clear
that all who follow Christ must be “given to”
hospitality.
Contrary to popular thinking and teaching, hospitality
is not a gift I have, but a gift I must give. It is
the practical handle God has given to implement agape
love. It is the attitude of the heart which, when
expressed collectively among members of the Body,
produces the authentic relational womb that births a
community in which a people linked in truth are
described as being in “unity.” Unity is not the goal
but rather the fruit that issues from the root. When
either truth or community relationship fostered by
hospitality are missing in whole or in part, we seek
gospel gimmicks to replace them. The result is not
true unity but a counterfeit, requiring constant
catering to fleshly interests demanding a conformity
of compromise rather than to Christ.
As we see the day of our Lord’s return rapidly
approaching, the Holy Spirit bringing re-birth to the
holy heart of hospitality that graced the life of the
early Church, causing outsiders to desire becoming
insiders as they observed the unity of truth displayed
in holy community. We yearn again for the world to
inescapably conclude, “Behold, how they love one
another.” But first it will be necessary to restore
the Hebraic roots of the church.
Restoring Our Hebraic Roots
How could Christian leadership since the early Church
have largely lost the profound simplicity of
hospitality? The viewpoint of the Church and its
leaders changed dramatically.
The Church was born in Jerusalem on the Day of
Pentecost, a Jewish feast celebrated fifty days after
the Feast of Passover, the Feast of Unleavened Bread
and the Feast of First Fruits. Pentecost was followed
by the Feast of Trumpets and the Feast of Tabernacles,
celebrated by Jesus, His apostles and the Apostle
Paul, all of which were Jewish, to display God’s
covenantal community before the nations. The “Feasts
of the Lord” were open to all who embraced the “God of
Abraham, Isaac and
Into such a spiritual environment Yeshua (Christ) was
presented as the “Word made flesh,” “Tabernacled among
us,” welcoming all who would receive Him to His
Father’s eternal home. It was in this same Hebraic
environment that the Church was born.
As the Church spread, invading Gentile realms, Gentile
thinking and ways invaded the Church. Predominant were
Greek thinking and Roman organization. For the Greek,
the mind mattered most, and relationship was of remote
relevancy. Hellenistic influence rapidly replaced the
Hebraic heart. God’s Truth became not a faith to be
practiced but facts to be pondered.
For gentile Christians, it became more “kosher” to
think like a Greek than like a Jew. This eroded
Hebraic practice. As Christianity spread throughout
the Roman Empire, so did the
ways and practices among Christians. Roman structures
and organizational ways replaced Hebraic synagogues
and relational patterns of worship.
With radical changes of thought and practice among
Christians came radical rejection of Hebraic practices
and persecution of the Jews, severing our Hebraic
roots while laying the foundation for seventeen
centuries of abandonment of the very heart and soul of
first-century Christianity.
The Spirit of God is grieved. He is bringing course
correction. It is part of the Holy Spirit’s “preparing
the way” for our Lord’s return. Much is at stake. Our
future success will depend significantly on the degree
to which we restore the Hebraic roots that open our
hearts hospitably to others.
Nowhere is the substitution of the Greek mind for the
Hebraic heart more prevalent in practice than among
pastors. We who pastor have become the primary
perpetrators and propagators of a purely cognitive
approach to the practice of Christian faith. While
what we believe is truly important, how we live is of
equal or greater importance. The great gap between
what we say we believe and how we really live opens us
and our flocks to self deception.
In few places is this gap more apparent than in the
practice of hospitality. While statistics do not
always tell the whole truth, the fact that 70 percent
of pastors admit they have no friends reveals a
significant disconnect between our sincere desire to
practice agape love and our failure to practice
hospitality.
When hospitality begins to invade and issue from a
pastor’s heart, new hope and healing flows from his
ministry. His home becomes a revitalized haven for his
family, the faithful, and those who would enter the
family of God. The spirit of true community comes
alive. Genuine unity emerges naturally from the
vibrancy of community.
The Pastoral Connection
If we truly want unity, we must restore community.
Genuine community will flower with a fresh pursuit of
truth and a rebirth of hospitality. To preach
hospitality, I must practice hospitality. And if I
would practice hospitality, I will soon preach
hospitality. Hospitality must again become an
essential of Christian discipleship.
If we would be touched with hospitality, we must teach
hospitality. Hospitality gives us a “handle” on agape
love. It requires not only teaching but also training,
enveloping every aspect of our Christian walk. Once
one gains a vision for The POWER of Hospitality,
forgiveness, reconciliation, fellowship, reaching the
lost, and virtually every other aspect of ministry and
relationship take on new significance and meaning,
including unity.
The heart of our faith is revealed in a heart of
hospitality. Let’s get serious about discipling the
saints in this essential expression of God’s grace to
us. May no Christian magazine ever again need to ask,
“Whatever Happened to Hospitality?” And may The POWER
of Hospitality give rebirth to genuine Christian
comm-unity causing a skeptical world to again declare,
“Behold how they love one another,” thus extending a
welcoming hand to those in a fractured and
hyper-individualistic society who will embrace “the
WAY, the TRUTH and the LIFE.”
