The feature article for this newsletter is Letter to Pastor David Jones - Request for 'Angel Feather' by Bud Press, Christian Research Service, 11/19/08. The old "angel feathers" trick has been used in certain Pentecostal churches for decades. It made a comeback since the Toronto "Blessing" and other related counterfeit revivals. Recently it was claimed that angel feathers were falling in meetings by Patricia King. But when asked for a sample of these feathers and other things like "gold dust", etc. you get the silent treatment. That is because these "angel feathers" are not from angels but from some type of bird, and the "gold dust" has proven to be stationary glitter. These old tricks are used to try to claim that God's anointing is on the leadership or church involved. But what it actually proves is that the churches and individuals that make these claims are in apostasy.
Through the years I have been presented with
many opportunities to forgive. Sometimes the situation was so severe that
it took me some time to forgive and start the process of healing for myself,
and eventually for others. I learned that a Christian needs to forgive
other people even if they have not repented of their sins. That can be
really hard if we let it be hard. But if we give our burdens over to the
Lord, He will carry them and that frees us up to treat other people with
love, compassion, and be in the right frame of mind and heart to set them
up for reconciliation with Jesus Christ. That does not mean we tolerate
their sin. We simply forgive them for what they have done to us, whether
perceived or real, and move on to looking for ways to redeem them. We can
then present to them the “truth in love” even when we have to rebuke them.

First of all, the best way you can support this web site is to be a Berean. Search the Scriptures daily and stand firm in your faith against the apostasy of the last days. It would give me great joy if more Christians would learn to discern! Secondly, please continue to uphold this ministry in prayer. The expository nature of this site has brought down the wrath of the enemy countless times. Thirdly, there are many costs involved in running this site as well as providing research and materials so that you will be armed with the truth. I send out three separate newsletters and provide other apologetics materials free of charge to Christian leaders in this area of the world. I am a full time missionary supported by sending churches in the U.S. For some years I did not ask for support but some people have sent me support and asked how they can help, so I want to provide the following information. Please don't neglect other Christian ministries that uphold the truth as God lays them on your heart. There are many. My contact information if you wish to send in monetary support is:
