Visions of the Great Falling Away, Written by my Husband, Mel
Spiritual preparation for the Lord’s return begins with understanding God’s Word. As we study the scriptures, we must pray that God’s Spirit will give us illumination. Approximately eight years ago, the Lord spoke to me in an audible voice, he said, “Ichabod! It bears worth repeating, Ichabod!” I asked the Lord what he meant, and he replied, “The churches are dead.” I said, “Surely you have a few that are not dead?” and he replied, “I have a few.” The word Ichabod means, the glory has departed (1 Samuel 4:21,22). God’s Word teaches that before the coming of the Lord there will be a great falling away (apostasy). 2 Thessalonians 2:3 Let no one deceive you by any means; for [that Day will not come] unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition.
The modern church will not endure sound doctrine because they desire to be men pleasers, rather than God pleasers. Therefore, God has given them over to believe the lie, because they desire darkness rather than light. The apostasy is the sinful bondages within the lives of believers, as well as the compromising grace message that empowers their sin. I have had many dreams, visions, as well as, words concerning sin in the life of believers, and this is God’s number one concern. I understand that many people don’t like my teachings on holiness, but this issue is more important to God than end time preparation or anything else. In Romans chapter six, Paul taught that once we come to Christ we are not to continue in sin. Paul was speaking of habitual sins, which lead to bondage. We either are slaves to sin, or free in Christ, if we pursue righteousness. Christ said that any tree, which does not bear good fruit, will be cut down, and thrown into the fire. Paul also said, to come out from among them and to be separate saith God, touch not the unclean thing and I will receive you (2 Corinthians 6:17,18) and Peter said to be holy, as He (God), is holy (1Peter 1:15,16). Most Christians are products of our culture and are indistinguishable from the world. Pastors are more concerned with not offending their flock for the sake of tithes, than preaching the truth of God’s Word.
I recently visited a church that claimed to be Pentecostal. They had a great worship service but the sermon was unbiblical. The pastor preached the same dead grace message like most. He taught that righteousness was based on faith in Christ alone, and not on our own lifestyle. This is contrary to what the Word of God teaches. God's Word teaches us to purify ourselves, as well as to pursue righteousness (right living). If you are convicted of a crime, tell the judge that it is impossible to live right and see how far that gets you. It is the same with God who is our ultimate judge. When you come to Christ by faith, you must repent of your sins, as well as make confession of Christ. When you are water baptized, this is symbolic of being washed clean in Christ through repentance of sins, as well as identifying with his death, burial, and resurrection.
God's Word is clear, that without holiness no man shall see the Father. Faith without works is dead, and you must produce good fruit in order to be saved. Christ said, that those who endure unto the end shall be saved. When you are truly born again, you are justified by the shed blood of Christ, not by the works of the law of Moses. However, this requires us to daily deny ourselves, take up our cross and follow Christ. Sanctification is progressive (being glorified) and is essential for salvation. Sanctification is the purification process of the Holy Spirit and it requires action on our part. When the Holy Spirit convicts us of our sins, we must repent, and turn from them. It is God's desire to wash us clean, starting with our toes, then our entire body. Once we are clean, we should reflect Christlikeness. Final salvation is the glorification of our body, soul, and spirit at Christ's return. We will be given a white garment of righteousness, as well as the gift of eternal life.
The Lord gave me a dream concerning the spirit that is now at work in many churches, that is leading his flock astray. I dreamed that I was visiting a mega-church and I understood that the Pastor was a Christian celebrity, as well as on television. He had many soothing words that people found most appealing. Then his wife ran to the front of the church screaming, “My husband doesn’t love me! My husband doesn’t love me!” The Pastor’s wife was very dark in appearance due to being covered in sin. She fell to the floor and began to go into convulsions. I then ran forward to try to save her since I am trained in first aid, as well as CPR. However, she let out another scream of anguish, and then died. Then I turned to her husband and I noticed that he was smiling. Her husband then said, “I’m glad that she is dead!” I felt the Spirit of the Lord come over me and I commanded the Spirit of the False Prophet to come out of him! The Pastor then fell to the floor growling, and said, “No!” Then the Pastor began to say repeatedly, “I hate her! I hate her!” I continued to command the spirit of the False Prophet to come out of him and he took on the appearance of a human- beast hybrid. I then called for the entire church to witness the spirit of the False Prophet that had been deceiving them through unsound doctrine.
The apostate Pastor’s wife was the church that her husband was leading astray. The false prophets and pastors are leading God’s flock astray, because they refuse to address the sinful bondages that are leading many religious people to hell. Most people trust their church leadership to instruct them with sound doctrine, but this trust is misplaced. It is very important to study God’s Word for yourself, as well as to pray that God will grant you understanding. The time has come for believers to separate themselves from the dead churches and to seek God for a personal relationship. God is not into religion, but desires holiness from his children. The wages of sin is death, but Christ offers grace for sins that are truly repented of. If you know Christ, you will be set apart (saint or purified one) from the world.
A number of years ago, the Lord showed me the church as an unfaithful bride, and he said, “Divorce.” The Lord made it very clear that sinful bondages that are not repented of, will lead to spiritual death (divorce). The Lord spoke to me in an audible voice and said, “I am warning my children to get out!” This word was followed by a dream. I dreamed that I was in a convenience store and that nothing worked right, the gas pumps, food machines, as well as everything else within the store was malfunctioning. I then noticed that the lid was off the drink machine, and it was almost empty; there were also three, half-eaten bags of Fritos in the drink. I said, “This is nasty,” I then removed the drink machine and put it in the trash outdoors. Then an older man walked into the store, and he said that nothing worked right. The angel of the Lord then answered him and said, “The authorities are on their way.” As I stated previously, the Lord refers to the harlot church system of the end times as Mystery Babylon. Babylon is a term synonymous with wickedness (Rev 18:4-5). The convenience store in my dream was symbolic of the churches who are serving up spiritual junk food. The almost empty drink machine, with three half-eaten bags of Fritos in it, is the greasy grace doctrine taught by most churches. The gas pumps that do not work are symbolic of an unholy spirit, which has replaced God’s Holy Spirit. It is time to come out of Babylon!
In another dream, I was standing next to an angel outside of a church building. I noticed the stone church building looked Gothic in appearance and we proceeded to walk inside. The angel showed me various different rooms or sanctuaries within this building. Each room was a different Christian denomination or fellowship. I understood that the church building that we were in was a Roman Catholic Church, and the Protestant denominations and fellowships were her offspring. The RCC is the mother of all harlots and the other churches (her offspring) are harlots, as well. In other words, the sinful bondages within the lives of those who profess to know Christ is spiritual adultery (Rev 17:1-15).
Next, the Angel led me into one of the rooms and he pointed to a glass display case that had wax figures in them that represented the persecution of true Christians by the church throughout the ages. It displayed true Christians being burned at the stake, as well as killed in other ways, by the Protestant reformers, Martin Luther, John Calvin, and others. It also displayed the drowning of the Ana-Baptists in barrels. The angel said, “This is the history of the apostate church.”
I was then standing within an Assembly of God church, very similar to ones that I have attended in the past. The angel walked me down the aisles and pointed to the people sitting in the pews. I noticed that everyone was dressed in wedding garments, the men in tuxedos, and the women in white wedding dresses with veils. However, many were dead rotting corpses still wearing wedding garments, seated next to living people throughout the congregation. I noticed that around sixty percent of the congregation were dead corpses, and around forty percent were alive. Since the dead corpses were still wearing wedding garments, this is an indication that they were once born again, but now they were dead in their sins. Christ said that those who endure unto the end, shall be saved.
In another dream, I was looking into a prison and I witnessed Christians all dressed in orange prison jumpsuits. I knew many of these people from Bible study groups that I formerly attended, but they were all prisoners of sin. One man that I recognized was a leader in a very large mega- church. The Lord told me to reach into the prison and pull them out. I understood that the only way to free them was by teaching them the truth about repentance and sanctification. No one is perfect, but we must press forward and pursue righteousness without shrinking back. There is grace for sins that have been repented of, but grace is not automatic. God’s Word states, that we must be born again, in order to be saved. It is true, that God blots out all of our sins, when we truly repent and turn from them. However, we must become a new creation in Christ, by allowing God’s Holy Spirit to do his perfect work of sanctification in us. Without holiness, no man shall see the Father.
One of the many lies of Satan being taught today is that Christ sees us through his blood, therefore making repentance obsolete. Some also teach that Christ’s righteousness alone is enough, because we are all filthy sinners saved by grace, even after conversion. These teachings are polar opposite to what the Bible teaches. You must ignore dozens of scriptures concerning holiness in order to come up with this man pleasing doctrine. In a dream, I was visiting a church and everyone was covered in dirt, as well as wearing soiled garments. I pointed my finger at the congregation and said, “Woe to you Babylon! You shut people out of the kingdom of Heaven!” Pastors who desire to please their tithers with unsound doctrine, will answer to God on judgment day. Other false doctrines, are the unconditional eternal security doctrine, prosperity gospel, Calvinism, manifest sons, etc. True believers must stay clear from these doctrines of demons. I believe that the Great tribulation, will not only be a time of judgment upon the unsaved, but will also be a time of purification for true believers. Persecution and hardship will cause people to get off the fence, and truly surrender every area of their lives to the Lord. The tribulation will produce a church clothed in garments of holiness.
There are also many counterfeit revivals going on, where God’s Holy Spirit has been replaced by demonic manifestations. People are laughing uncontrollably, as well as making all different animal sounds. They are hissing like snakes, mooing like cows, roaring like lions, howling like wolves, as well as barking like dogs. These same manifestations occur within Kundalini Hinduism, as well as other forms of occultism. In a congregation in Boston, the pastor crawled on his hands and knees like a dog, barking, and his wife led him around on a leash fastened to a dog collar around his neck. The wife then said, “Where he leads I will follow!” People also claim to be drunk in the spirit; they display symptoms of physical drunkenness. After leaving one of these revivals in Florida, numerous people were pulled over by law enforcement officers for drunk driving. They all passed their breathalyzer tests, because they were made drunk by an unholy spirit. God’s Word is clear that God hates drunkenness, and no drunkard will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Satan is the lawless one, and he is making a mockery of God, within these revivals. After leaving this flesh fest, people were also seen displaying drunk behavior in local restaurants. They were falling on the floor in the restaurants, laughing hysterically. God is a God of order, and not foolishness. God will not make a person drive drunk or embarrass them in public. Where is the discernment? Why can’t Christians see that an unholy demonic spirit, is at work in their churches? In some, so-called Christian rock concerts, many of the young people are going into trances, where they display tribal dancing. These are but a few of the demonic manifestations going on worldwide. The late pastor David Wilkerson, warned the church about this invasion of demonic activity, as well as the need to return to holiness preaching, but most will not listen. It is time for the church to start using discernment and realize that something has gone wrong. God is withdrawing his Spirit from many churches, because they will not endure sound doctrine. If the churches will return to teaching holiness once again, then maybe God’s Spirit will return!
Many of the leaders of these false revivals have been caught in adultery, as well as homosexual relations. I believe that in many cases physical perversion is a manifestation of spiritual perversion. A false prophet from Florida who led a well known revival, has a tattoo of a Japanese goddess on his arm. He claims that this goddess is really an angel by the name of Emma who accompanies him during his kicking sessions at his so-called revival. He claims that Emma has instructed him to hit or kick people in need of healing, as an act of obedience. The revival was shut down when it was revealed that he was having an affair during the entire time of this revival. This wolf in sheep’s clothing, divorced his wife and married his mistress. Now he is back at it again. A false prophet from Kansas City, claims that this same angel Emma came floating into his church to usher in their false revival. His church later removed him from his ministry position due to sexual misconduct with church members. Another false prophet from his church admitted to being a practicing homosexual. I could go on and on with examples of how perverted these revivalists are, but this should suffice.
Many of the television evangelists, as well as mega-church leaders, have also had their share of scandals. A well-known television evangelist, who wears a white suite, and has a healing ministry, has much darkness surrounding him. Channel six news from Orlando featured an expose on this minister. They showed on film a group of men sitting at a table together, and the evangelist handed a bong to his lead singer, as well as another man at the table. Both of these men smoked the bong. One of the men who smoked the bong, died later from a heroin overdose. While this married evangelist was in Rome, he was filmed walking and holding hands with a female television evangelist, who was wearing very short shorts. They both admitted to a friendship when the pictures were released, but denied their obvious affair. In spite of this wickedness, their supporters chose to forgive them. If Christians would wake up and stop supporting these apostate ministers, they would shut them down overnight. God’s anointing is not on these reprobates, who use God for dishonest gain. Hell will be full of those who fleece the flock.
Many Christians are afraid of supernatural experiences because of the demonic manifestations. However, we need to allow God’s true gifts to be in operation within the church. It is not good to quench God’s Spirit, or to be afraid of it. For God does give visions, dreams, work miracles, heal the sick etc. (1 Cor 12). It is crucial that we pray over experiences, as well as use sound judgment. The reason for this unholy spirit which has invaded the church is loose living, as well as unsound doctrine.
