Sarah Palin's Churches and The Third Wave


www.huffingtonpost.com
Sarah Palin's churches are actively involved in a resurgent movement that was declared heretical by the Assemblies of God in 1949. This is the same 'Spiritual Warfare' movement that was featured in the award winning movie, "Jesus Camp," which showed young children being trained to do battle for the Lord. At least three of four of Palin's churches are involved with major organizations and leaders of this movement, which is referred to as The Third Wave of the Holy Spirit or the New Apostolic Reformation. The movement is training a young "Joel's Army" to take dominion over the United States and the world.

Written by grade B movie writers.

Every Clinton supporter I have talked to who had considered McCain (and there really aren't that many) to a woman (and man) they've told me that Palin was the deal breaker for them, that they are now committed to Obama because of her.

I am not opposed to religion by any stretch of the imagination... I am opposed to fanatics of any stripe.

I saw this video and was reminded of Jesus Camp.



I agree... Just what we need. Another religious extremist who says that the war in Iraq (and the Alaskan Pipeline) is "God's Plan".

When all else fails. blame it on God. He can't very well defend himself.

Also check out the Master's Commission, Wasilla, AK, an Assembly of God organization.


Palin church promotes converting gays

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — Gov. Sarah Palin's church is promoting a conference that promises to convert gays into heterosexuals through the power of prayer.

"You'll be encouraged by the power of God's love and His desire to transform the lives of those impacted by homosexuality," according to the insert in the bulletin of the Wasilla Bible Church, where Palin has prayed for about six years.


Pray Away the Gay

The Master's Commision Cult?


"The Master's Commission, a generational call to character" is not just another church program. It is a one year, put your life on hold, give everything you have adventure that will radically change the way you look at the purpose of your life.
...
# To see young men and women motivated and captivated by the increasing revelation that their lives are not their own, and to be fully sold out to the principles and purposes of God.

# To see young men and women develop and pursue intimate, effective and radical relationships with God the Father, Jesus His Son, His Holy Spirit, the generations that have gone before them and one another.

# To see young men be men who are not afraid to lead and are violent in their pursuit of righteousness.


Oh, yes, let's get her right in there! I can't wait to see what she has in store for us!

I think it odd how many railed at associating Obama with the Rev. Wright issue, and now have no similar concerns with associating Palin and her church.

As I said in a similar thread:

We can look to how she's governed in the past.

According to one of Palin's major critics, she clearly did NOT govern overtly by her religious positions.


CLAIM VS FACT

•social conservative: mixed. Opposes gay marriage, BUT vetoed a bill
that would have denied benefits to employees in same-sex relationships
(said she did this because it was unconsitutional).

•pro-creationism: mixed. Supports it, BUT did nothing as Governor to
promote it.

•“Pro-life”: mixed. Knowingly gave birth to a Down’s syndrome baby
BUT declined to call a special legislative session on some pro-life
legislation



Is it therefore reasonable to assume she whould change her governance behavior now?

Incidentally:

That's not entirely accurate. With respect to Iraq, she said she wanted people to pray that it was god's plan...not that it *is* god's plan. Big difference.

I would like to recommend this thread. If you want to learn more about the end of days movement.

I posted these comments on that thread.

Many people seemingly do not get that these people are eager for the end of the world. In fact they believe that God is guiding their every action to bring about the return of Jesus and their ascension to heaven.

Well that might be kinda quirky, misguided, maybe even funny as long as they play in their own locked ward and leave the rest of us alone but they are seeking the office of VPOTUS.

Sarah Palin is one of these people, no doubt! John McCain is not a healthy man. That means that end of days fanatic Sarah Palin will have access to the most powerful arsenal in the world and can bring about the return of Jesus with the press of a button. Now that is no longer a joke. That is pure insanity and the alarm needs to be sounded!
