The 7 Great Lies in the Church Today False teachings running rampant within the American church have created a “whiteout” condition for millions of believers. Here’s how to detect—and overcome—these destructive doctrines before it’s too late. Editor’s Note: Most Charisma readers remember Steve Hill as the fiery evangelist from the Brownsville Revival who has since continued to win countless souls for Jesus around the world. But what many readers don’t realize is that Hill only recently came out of a three-year battle with melanoma. During that time, he received a prophetic vision warning the church of an impending “spiritual avalanche” that could kill millions. The following article on deception in the church is part of this timely message, now delivered in his latest book, Spiritual Avalanche. Years ago my wife, Jeri, and I were driving on the interstate when we were overcome by a white cloud of windblown snow.

dave's word Health---Well-Being If you wanted to be god over all the earth, you'd need to find a way to control it. Just as the enemy has infiltrated the church, government, and all the rest of earth's systems, he has infiltrated the health of mankind. Many of the physical symptoms (lethargy, despair, foggy mindedness) that the people of God experience are due to a breakdown and corruption of our culture's food and water supplies. Most of us douse ourselves with immunizations, cosmetics, lotions and antiperspirants, use fluoride toothpaste, take one type of metal ladened medication or another, and drink or shower in toxic water. I am convinced that most sicknesses and diseases, including things like fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, ADHD, autism, depression and so much more, are rooted in toxicity.

Unknown title Book of Thoth is a name given to many ancient Egyptian texts supposed to have been written by Thoth, the Egyptian god of writing and knowledge. They include a text that is known and has been translated, many texts that were claimed to exist by ancient authors, and a magical book that appears in an Egyptian work of fiction. Texts that are known or claimed to exist[edit] The Egyptians stored many texts, on a wide range of subjects, in "Houses of Life", the libraries contained within temple complexes. As Thoth was the god of knowledge, many of these texts were claimed to be his work.[1] The Egyptian historian Manetho claimed that Thoth wrote 36,525 books.[2] The church father Clement of Alexandria, in the sixth book of his work Stromata, mentions forty-two books used by Egyptian priests that he says contain "the whole philosophy of the Egyptians". Fictional book[edit] The fictional Book of Thoth appears in an ancient Egyptian story from the Ptolemaic period. In popular culture[edit]
