Generation Y:" A Generation Who Knew Not the Lord!"



The babies born between 1982 and 2002 are known as Generation Y or the Millennial Generation (here/here). This generation is unlike any other that America has ever seen, because their morals don't reflect Judeo-Christian values.  In fact, the values they reflect range from amoral to immoral. Let's look at some of the critical views of Generation Y:

1.  Eighty one percent of Generation Y approve of same-sex marriage (source)

2.  Six out 10 Believe Abortion Should Be Legal (source)

3.  Thirty two percent are non-religious (source).  They are losing faith in record numbers(source)

4.  Sixty-Five believe marijuana should be legalized (source).

This is the generation of American's who knew not God! A generation who hates good, but madly in love with evil. We need to fervently pray for this generation, and take more aggressive steps to properly evangelize to this group.




Judges 2:10

King James Version (KJV)
10 And also all that generation were gathered unto their fathers: and there arose another generation after them, which knew not the Lord, nor yet the works which he had done for Israel.


Hosea 4:6

King James Version (KJV)
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.



Generation Y needs a real Holy Ghost Revival in this land or they will perish in sin! The American Church needs to wake-up and preach the real "Gospel of Jesus Christ so sinners will repent and not perish!!!

Sudden Infant Death Syndrome(SIDS) with Babes in Christ




SIDS is an acronym for Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.  It is the unexpected death of an apparently healthy infant that occurs during the first year of life while the infant is sleeping. One of the greatest dangers the Church has with newly-saved followers of Christ, or babes, is SIDS.  Babes in churches have the appearance of being healthy.  They attend Sunday service weekly and go to Sunday School, Bible Study, and various ministry fellowships. They appear to have a healthy spiritual life.  But unfortunately, they fall asleep in being diligent in prayer. Their lack of prayer offers defeat instead of victory.  Instead of enduring temptation, they succumb to it. They become victims instead of victors.


Devoured in Their Sleep



Satan is devouring them in their "sleepy" state of not praying. Jesus told the the disciples in Matthew 26:41, "Watch and pray that ye enter not into the temptation.  The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak." The disciples were asleep when they should have been praying along with Jesus. When adversity came they were unable to stand with Jesus. They all fled, except John. Babes in Christ must be nurtured in prayer and in the Word of G-d so that they won't fall into divers temptation.



Return to the Basics 



As the Church of the living G-d, we must return to the basics of prayer, fasting, reading the Word, meditation of the Word, discipleship, and praise and worship.  All of these activities must be relayed to the babes in Christ. This will enable them to endure to walk with Jesus for the duration of their lives. Church programs and activities should never take the place of getting babes grounded in the basics, but should produce a healthy "Christian lifestyle" and a relationship with Christ Jesus that will sustain them in these last and evil days.

Willow Smith Sexual Theme New Video(Message for Fornication)

Willow Smith New Video "Summer Fling" sparks Controversy




Willow Smith's new single "Summer Fling" has caused a stir among critics and fans because of the sexual themes featured in the song.
"Don't really care what we do tonight," Smith, 12, sings on the track. "Good night kisses if the mood is right, laying by the beach with you wishing this will never end."


In the clip, Will Smith's daughter is seen "holding hands and romping around with an actor who appears much older than her," the NY Daily News wrote. "At one point, the man picks Willow up-but commentators were alarmed at the use of the word 'fling,' inferring a relationship that's sexual in nature."

Fans have had mixed reactions to the tween's new clip. While many YouTube users have left messages pointing out that "she's just 12," others have stronger opinions on the matter.

"She doesn't write her own songs she doesn't pitch in ideas for her own videos, she isn't no artist. But she sure is setting new [expletive] standards for the new generation," YouTube user Leenafiisa commented on the video.

"Does it really matter? It's a nice song that shouldn't be taken 100% literally," wrote user Jamieson Deamer."

According to SheKnows.com, Smith's video has also been criticized for its lack of authenticity as the young singer speaks with a British accent at one point and sports a new blond hairstyle.

"She is recognized for her distinctive and interesting dress sense, so at least she remained true to herself in that respect," the She Knows pointed out.




Commentary: The Truth about Young Girls Start Having Sex Early 

The pitfalls of sexual immorality. What you don't know will kill you! 

First of all let's examine the word "fling "In the title of Willow Smith's song "Summer Fling." A fling is a deliberate short term sexual relationship between two people, longer than a one night stand (source). As stated in the article by UPI and one of the Youtube commentators, Willow is setting new standards for her generation. 


So what is the new standard? 

The new standard is for pre-teen girls to indulge in casual sex at young age. If it feels right then just have a "fling" to satisfy yourself.

Smith's message is another prime example of music artists being used as evangelists for fornication, These types of songs give young people the okay to enjoy the pleasures of sin.  However, they don't show the ugly end result of the dire consequences of that sin.


What you won't see in Willow Smith's music video, are the devastating results of cervical cancer in a young girl who started to engage in sex at an early age (source).  Neither will it show the broken heart of a teen when the fling is ended or the effects of sexually transmitted diseases such as Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) and HIV that may result.  And they definitely won't display how a pre-teen girl runs the risk of contracting a sexually transmitted disease by having multiple flings or sex partners at a young age (source).  As Romans 6:23 states, "the wages of sin is death!"  

1 Corinthians 6:18

King James Version (KJV)
18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

2 Timothy 2:22

King James Version (KJV)

22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

American Idols, Celebrity Worship= Sin of Idolatry

Angelina Jolie pictured as a goddess



In the month of January 2013 we did a two part radio broadcast called American Idols, Celebrity Worship = Sin of Idolatry(here and here). We covered that in this present age celebrity worship has now become a new religion for people, and the celebrities they worship are in reality their god or goddess.  In American society people may not worship the idol gods of stone, wood, bronze, silver, and gold.  However, they do worship actors/actresses, singers, musicians, news anchors, athletes, models, and politicians. These individuals develop faithful followers that follow their every word and move.  However, the Bible warns us about the sin of idolatry.  One may ask what is the sin of idolatry? Let us examine this sin in this expose'.  Are you a person guilty of the sin of idolatry?




What is Idolatry ?



Idolatry is the worship of spirits, persons, or graven images.  It also includes trusting in any person, institution, or thing as having equal or greater authority than G-d and His Word.

In ancient Biblical times the nations surrounding the children of Israel were involved in idolatry. They worshiped all types of gods and goddesses including Chemosh, Baal, Moloch, and Astaroth. Now Yahweh had warned the children of Israel not to worship these idol gods. Yahweh alone was to be worshiped because He was and is the only "true living G-d" and the Creator.  Unfortunately, Israel fell in and out of idolatry which bought judgment upon the nation for disobeying  G-d.

The very reality is this: Israel fell in love with these idols by worshiping them.  In addition, these idols were really demon spirits. Psalms 106:36-37 reveals the truth that these idols were devils that  caused the people to commit acts of abomination and to sin against G-d.    


Celebrities That Are Worshiped 


Politicians Worshiped

President Barak Obama Viewed as Messiah


Sports Stars Worship

 Lebron James is worshiped as a sports star


Media Diva Worshiped as a Goddesss

Oprah Worship


Music Stars Worship

Kanye West portrayed as Christ Figure




New American Religion of Celebrity Worship



If you see people that place more emphasis and time in listening to the music of their favorite artist, watching their favorite television program, or dedicated to their favorite sports team and athlete, rather than worshiping G-d, you are seeing someone who is an active participate in a form of religion.  These people religiously follow their idol news media star, movie and television star, sports star, and/or politician.

The new houses of worship for this celebrity-centered religion are the iphone, ipod, computer, online, sports stadium, movie, music concert, television.  The celebrity worship Bible is the tabloid magazine.  Magazines such as US Magazine and The National Inquirer sell millions of copies each week.  Television programs such as E!, Extra, TMZ, Entertainment Tonght, and Access Hollywood give regular daily updates about their gods and goddesses(source).  

Sociologist Rodney Stark states, "typically people do not seek a faith; they encounter one through their ties to other people who already accept this faith." It's been said that fame is a religion, and celebrities are the gods.



So...to Which Idol Should You Bow?


The question is: what celebrity idols do you bow down to daily?  Do you you spend more time listening to ungodly music and watching ungodly music videos? What ungodly Anti-Christian and anti-moral celebrity poster is hanging on the wall of your room?   Do you spend more time reading about your favorite celebrity than you do your Bible? How much time do you spend in prayer versus watching your favorite television show with your favorite actor? Please think about these questions.  If you answered affirmatively to any of them, you might have a serious sin problem with idolatry. Stop bowing down to these celebrity idols! they don't mean your eternal soul any good!

1 John 5:21 warns Christians on the following, "Keep yourselves from idols." Don't bow down to the sin of idolatry! Revelation 21:8 states that idol worshipers will have their destiny in the Lake of Fire. Please keep Jesus Christ first in your life, and you will have eternal life.

"Last Days Ruling Demonic Strongholds of Youth"


Teen Girls Cutting(Bloodletting) due to depression.


In the fifth chapter of the Gospel of Mark  there is an account of a man that was demonically possessed.  When Jesus asked the demon his name the reply was “Legions”, because he had many demons in him. The Lord showed me by prophetic insight that many demons are afflicting the young people in America today.  There is no doubt that there is a strong correlation between “Legions” and the youth.

Let’s look at the characteristics of Legions and compare it to the youth of today. In Mark 5:4, Legions was hard for any man to tame. Today, rebellion runs deep in the heart of the youth.  It’s hard to tame them or bring them under submission of authority. Also in Mark 5:4, Legions was a violent man.  He violently broke the chains that were in place to keep him bound. As a comparison, youth are prone to violence. Violence is glorified in the music they listen to and in music videos, television programs and movies they watch.  It's also displayed in the video games they play.  And if that weren’t enough, the gang involve­ment of our youth and the high incidence of gun related violence in the schools are staggering.  It is no doubt that violence is a significant part of the youth culture.

In Mark 5:5 it states that that Legion lived around the tombs of the dead. The fascination with death among youth is amazing. We see it in the Goth culture, hip-hop music, and in the world of gang-banging. Homicide and suicide rank number two and three as the cause of death overall.  Among black youth homicide ranks number one with suicide being number three. Legions cut himself with stones in Mark 5:5.  We see the increase of teens receiving body piercing and tattoos today.  In a bloody epidemic called “cutting”  teen girls self-mutilate themselves with razors and knives. This is called bloodletting, which is the act of cutting the flesh to extract blood(see the video above).

This man in the fifth chapter of Mark was bound by “the spirit of Le­gions.”  Before he was delivered he ran around naked (Mark 5:15). Youth are engaging in pre-martial sex and showing themselves naked to sexual perversion. Some, instead of having vaginal intercourse, are en­gaging in oral and anal sex thinking that these methods maintain their virginity and leave them less likely to contract a sexually transmitted disease.
If the we the Church expect to see the youth delivered from Legions or many demons, we have to operate in the fullness of  the Holy Spirit in the example of Christ.  They need to be delivered from sleeping around and be clothed in their right mind to live for Jesus.  It is only then that the strongholds be broken off the lives of our youth.

Alert!:Sodomy Revival Among USA Teens

Alert! Alert! Alert! Sodomy Revival Among USA Teens.




Churches tell your teenagers to flee Babylon and its plagues! Christian teens make your “Exodus” out of Babylon now! Don’t look back to Sodom/Babylon like Lot’s wife!



There is a revival of sodomy going in our country, especially among our teens. Young people are being deceived by Satan to participate in other methods of premarital sex outside of vaginal intercourse. As if premarital sex in itself wasn’t bad enough. Which other methods am I speaking of? Oral and anal sex. Some girls believe that by participating in these other forms of sex they are maintaining their virginity. Deceived by the lies of the devil, they honestly believe they are keeping themselves “pure”. Unfor­tunately, they don’t realize that they’ve defiled themselves along with their male counterparts. Proverbs 14:12 says, “ There is a way that which seemeth right unto man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.”



Where does sodomy originate from? It originates from pagan idol worship. In the Bible primarily sodomy was among the worship of Baal. Male and female prostitutes committed acts of sodomy as a form of worship to Baal. Sodomy was widely practiced by the peo­ple dwelling in Canaan. The American Heritage Dictionary de­fines sodomy as, “anal or oral copulation of one male with an­other, anal or oral copulation with a member of the opposite sex, and copulation with an animal.” The book of Leviticus tells us that the practice of man with a man (sodomy), and bestiality (sodomy/ sleeping with animals) among other things were forbidden by Yah­weh. Jewish law bans all acts of sex outside of intercourse between husband and wife. This includes masturbation, anal sex, oral sex, and intercourse of unmarried people in Israel. In the music industry you have several prophets and evangelist of Baal and sodomy.

Several years ago rap artist 50 Cent had a song called “Candy Shop”. He also had another song he did with Lil’ Kim called “Magic Stick.”
He also had another song he did with Lil’ Kim called “Magic Stick.” Both songs glorify a woman having oral sex, or committing sodomy, with a man. The latest prophet and evangelist of sodomy is popular a New Orleans rapper named Lil’ Wayne. He had a hit song called “Lollipop in 2008.” This song makes ref­erences to a woman giving a man oral sex, and vice versa. Imagine a young person who listens to the lyrics of this song day and night. Its the opposite of Joshua 1:8! Instead of meditating on the law or the Lord, s/he is meditating day and night on oral sex, lust, perver­sion, and fornication. By meditating on the song “Lollipop”, any young person is going to fail at living holy, being righteous, sub­mitting to the voice of the Holy Ghost which is able to keep them from falling into sexual immorality (Jude 24). When young people begin to sing along or listen to the lyrics of “Lollipop” they are letting Lil’ Wayne prophesy oral sex (a curse of sodomy) into their life. Proverbs 18:21 tells us death and life is in the power of the tongue, and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

What Lil’ Wayne won’t tell in his song is that oral sex can lead into sexually transmitted diseases of herpes, chlamydia, gonor­rhea, syphilis, and human pappilloma virus (HPV). Doctors have now found that HPV causes cancer of the throat. And what do you know? There is now a rise in the number of young men with throat cancer resulting from heterosexual and homosexual oral sex. Physicians are now recommending that not just girls and young women receive the vaccine for HPV, but are asking the gov­ernment’s permission to start giving the vaccine shot to boys. Doc­tors say that if the current trends continue within the next ten years there maybe more oral cancers in the United States caused by HPV than tobacco or alcohol.



Lil’ Wayne is not only a prophet of sodomy, but a prophet of death. The type of lifestyle he raps about is a “death style”, that leads to diseases, death (Romans 6:23) and eternal separation from God.

Some churches they promote “virginity pledges” among their young people to wait and have sex until marriage. Unfortunately, many of these program do not work for the following reasons: 1. They don’t promote sanctification, holiness, and transformation of the mind and
2. They lack the proper teaching of taking a vow onto the Lord. If you take a vow unto the Lord you must keep it. Going through a nice virginity pledge ceremony and receiving a pledge ring doesn’t ward off temptation and demonic influence[here ,here]. Most kids that go through these pledges don’t keep them and unfortunately, most attempt to find loopholes of avoiding vaginal intercourse by engaging in anal and oral sex/sodomy(source/source). This is the deception of them thinking that they are maintaining there virginity by not engaging in vaginal intercourse. However, using anal and oral sex as alternatives causes these teens to become new converts of sodomy, thus becoming sodomites instead of saints.

Anal sex opens a person up to anal cancer, HPV, chlamydia, hepa­titis, herpes, syphilis, gonorrhea, and HIV. Both acts of sodomy (anal and oral sex) make a young person susceptible to disease and expose him or her to unclean perverse spirits that form a sexual stronghold in their life. Sodomy can possibly damage young peo­ple throughout their adult life if they don’t get delivered through the “blood of Jesus Christ.”


Unfortunately parents don’t teach or talked to their kids about sex and the majority of churches don’t teach the youth about sex. Most learn about sex through friends, videos, television, music, internet, sex education in school, and pornography. Don’t let Lil’ Wayne or any other entertainer teach your young people about sex. But let us be the ones who tell them that that the right type of sex is not dirty, but beautiful and wonderful between a husband and his wife.

We have to turn our young people from the “gospel of sodomy” to the true gospel of Jesus Christ. We must turn sodomites to saints through repentances from anal and oral sex. Our kids in these days have to be taught the difference between unholy and holy, and the unclean versus the clean (Leviticus 10:10-11).

Parents be vigilant (1 Peter 5:8) with your kids! Establish and maintain open and honest communication with them. Check out their Myspace and Facebook pages and check to see if the content is of a sexual nature. Find out what CDs they listen to and/or the songs they download to their ipods. What are their favorite videos on Youtube? Pray in your children’s rooms and anoint it. Ask the Holy Ghost to lead and guide you to know if they’re involved in sex­ual promiscuity. We must fight a good fight to make sure that this generation is walking in the victory of sexual purity. We are all in a serious spiritual war for the souls of our young people. We must make sure that they will receive eternal life instead of eternal dam­nation.

The Truth & History of Tattoos: Christian Perspective



Pic of False Prophet/Profit Todd Bentley Tattoos


Tattoos in today's society are quite popular.  One in 10 Americans have tattoos, and one - third of 25 to 30 year old in America have tattoos (here).  Church folks are even getting tattoos because of the influence of today’s culture. We will explore the truth about tattoos, how they originated, what they symbolize, the biblical perspective on tattoos, and the possible health risks.
Leviticus 19:28 says, "Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the Lord." The act of tattooing includes tribal markings dedicated to a particular person’s tribal deity. The tattoo was originally a sign of alliance and worship to an idol god. Therefore, tattooing originates from pagan demonism, idol worship, and the magical arts of the occult world.


Tattooing-Magic and  Demons 
Tattooing was a method used by pagans such as sorcerers and pagan priests. Sorcerers used the method of tattooing to pass on their powers or demons to a disciple or descendant.  A Tattooists in paganism are much like a shamans or occult priests.  They are a point of contact to the spirit world.  In Michelle Delio's states on page eight of her book, "Tattoo: The Exotic Art of Skin Decoration," that tattooing is all about personalizing the body to making it a true home and fit temple for the spirit to dwell inside. The Apostle Paul said in First Corinthians that our body is the temple of the Holy Spirit  for those are in the Church of our Lord Jesus Christ.  Likewise in tattooing the body is a temple to a spirit/demonic spirit.

A perfect example of  tattooing and the act of passing down magical powers to a disciple or descendant is television series, "Smallville."  In the episode, "Spell", the character Lana Lang has a spell book from one of her ancestors.  She becomes possessed by the spirit of her ancestor (really a demon spirit), and assumes the magical powers of her ancestor. It seems Hollywood's entertainment industry is well versed in the knowledge of the occult and its promotion. They know the reality of the occult spirit world and tattooing.

A pastor once told me a story of a woman who was at one of his church services.  The woman ended up responding to the altar call after the sermon stating that she wanted the "baptism of the Holy Spirit."  She was having a hard time receiving the Baptism when he noticed that her tongue was pierced.  He told me that the Holy Spirit spoke to him and to tell the woman to remove her tongue ring.  She did and guess what?  She received the Holy Spirit! Several days later, the woman brought five thousand dollars worth of body piercing and tattooing equipment to the church.  When she spoke to the pastor she told hm that she was into Satanism.  She confessed that she and her friends would pray satanic prayers over their body piercing and tattooing equipment to invoke demon spirits on the people getting the tattoos.  She asked the pastor to dispose of the equipment which he did with extreme pleasure.


United States History on Tattoos

Concerning the history of the United States, tattoos have always signified rebellion in a society with criminals, adulterers, traitors, and the deviant. Many prisoners and criminal gangs have used and continue to use tattoos to indicate criminal behavior, prison sentences, and organizational affiliation. In the beginning of the late 1990’s the lower back tattoos became popular with young woman. It’s intent was to emphasis sexual attractiveness. However, some consider this type of tattoo as sign of promiscuity and indication of the "raunch" culture. Hence, the nicknames "tramp stamp" (a.k.a "slut) and "dirty girl" tattoo.
In parts of Britain adultery was punished by tattooing. In the army deserters were tattooed with the letter "D".

Yes indeed the popularity of tattooing in American society has grown by leaps and bounds. However, corporate American doesn't look to favorably on tattoos. In in poll done by Careerbuilders found the following:

Over 42 percent of managers said their opinion of someone would be lowered by that person's visible body art. (Personally, I think that the actual figure is much higher.)

Three out of four respondents believe that visible tattoos are unprofessional.

Employers aren't legally bound if they tell someone not to reveal tattoos at the workplace, or to keep tattoos covered up isn't illegal. In survey done by vault.com employers and employees were asked the question about body piercing and tattoos in the workplace. Sixty percent of the employers were less than likely than to hire someone with body piercings and tats, because on how the company image maybe tarnished. An individual may see it as self-expression, but an employer sees it as rebellious, bringing attention to yourself, and not a team player(here).


Health Consequences on Getting Tattoos

There are many health concerns when it comes to tattooing. There is a possibility of contracting deadly blood -borne diseases including but not limited to; AIDS, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, tetanus, syphilis, and tuberculosis(here).
Tattoo parlors are not held to the same health regulations as a health care practitioner office. Many of the parlors cater to customers that are somewhat deviant and already carrying some type of disease.
Tattooing opens your body up to infections, diseases, and scarring, which can have a devastating effect to a person’s overall health. Tattoos can also cause person to have chronic skin disorders such as sarcoid, keloid scarring, allergic dermatitis, psoriasis, benign and malignant tumors. In some cases people suffer an allergic reaction from the tattoo ink(here).

1990s sex symbol and Baywatch television star Pamela Anderson,  is the prime example of the health dangers of tattooing, after contracting hepatitis C(serious liver disease), she got disease by sharing a tattoo needle with her ex-husband rock star Tommie Lee.



What Would Jesus Do(WWJD) on Tatttoos

If you are someone who received a tattoo in ignorance before you became saved or after getting saved, I am not saying that you are not saved, you did out of ignorance. However, we are trying to teach the youth and babes in Christ in today’s church not get caught up in the culture of the world. Our purpose is to enlighten and educated the church in the way of holiness (Leviticus 10:10-11).

Some may say will Endtimeshofar, that is Old Testament scripture, were not under the "law or the Old Testament," were under the New Testament and grace. Your outdated and out of touch of what is going on in today times, even in  the Book of Revelation(Revelation 19:16) Jesus has a tattoo on his thigh that says He is the "Lord of lords and Kings of kings." This is false teaching to any one  who teaches this is heresy, Jesus would never have a tattoo, because He is Jewish number one, and number two He came to fulfill the Torah(Law) and not destroy the Torah(Law), three He would be in direct violation of Torah(here). Even with that being said, someone that got tattoos before getting saved shouldn't continue to get tattoos(this is called repentance), or even some young person thinking about getting a tattoo because it is culturally relevant needs to take not just look at Leviticus 19:28 scripture into account, but Exodus 20:4 put a graven image on your body whether or not it is a Christian tattoo it violates the Word of God. Again our body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. So why would you want to violate "the Word" and your body?

Let us not learn the way of the heathen (Jeremiah 10:2), but fear God and keep His commandments (Ecclesiastes 12:13). We’re in Babylon, but Babylon is not in our hearts (1 John 2: 15-16).

Smurfs Spellbound Movie Goers with Witchcraft

 
Released several weeks ago, Smurfs is an updated computer-animated movie based on the popular '80s cartoon series.  It was made with a $110 million budget and has already grossed over $162 million  in one month since its opening.  It features cute little blue mythical creatures that formerly proved to be the pop culture icons of their day.  And whoo-hoo, now our children can enjoy them!  But is Smurfs an innocent kids' movie or something more sinister?


 Smurfs the Movie


In the movie Papa Smurf sees a vision of the Smurfs in cages. Gargamel is powerful and Clumsy Smurf is in possession of a dragon wand.  Gargamiel then invades the Smurfs' village.  In order to get away, the Smurfs flee into a forbidden cave where they are sucked into a vortex and transported to New York.   
Papa Smurf has to search for a spell to get the Smurfs back home.  While on a quest to do so, Gargamel uses the Dragon Wand to empower himself with magical gifts.  In a nutshell, the Smurfs eventually conquer Gargamel and subsequently find the proper spell to transport themselves home (here).  The end.  So what could be so bad about that?  Its a safe plot with cute characters!  Good conquers evil!  Read on... 


Occult Themes of the Smurfs and Background


About 3:30 into the video Gargamel draws pentegram and cast a spell


The truth is this: the story of the Smurfs is based on occult practices.  The constant storyline is that these little blue creatures represent good and consistenly overcome evil by defeating Gargamel, an evil wizard, with good magic.   
Throughout the movie and cutely packaged television episodes are very blatant practices of witchcraft, sorcery, and manipulation (here).  In order to overcome evil, the Smurfs use good magic to cast spells, put hexes on people, and create cauldrons of potions of witchcraft (here).  But the Smurfts aren't the only ones using magic.  Gargamel's ultimate goal is to capture the Smurfs in order to eat them.   He uses evil magic and is seen casting spells in the name of Beelzebub.  Beelzebub means "lord of the flies", "prince of demons" the fact natural flies carry many diseases.    Demonic spirits are spiritual flies that carry natural and spiritual diseases to inflict harm on mankind.  Gargamel is an evil wizard and represents  black magic while  Papa Smurf is a good wizard and represents white magic.  The Church of Satan founder, Anton Lavey, said that there is no difference between black magic and white magic.  Whether black or white, they both draw their power from Satan.

In the movie Gargamel draws his power from the Dragon Wand.  If we see in the Book of Revelation that Satan is called "the dragon,"  then is Gargamel receiving his power from Satan?  In Revelation 13,  "the False Prophet" draws his power from Satan/Dragon to work lying signs and wonders.


Azrael the Cat
 Azrael the cat is Gargamel's  familiar. What is a familiar?   A familiar is a demon that supposedly attends and obeys a witch.  In witchcraft and demonology a cat is an animal embodies a supernatural spirit and aids a witch in performing magic (here).  Azrael is often seen aiding Gargamel in performing his magical craft.  The actual name for Azrael is the name of Lucifer's personal death angel and is also looked at as the  Archangel of Death in some extrabiblical traditions.  The creators of the Smurfs sneak in this occult belief in the form of children's tales to entice people into the occult arts.


  The book "Fourteen Things Witches Hope Parents Never Find Out"  p.73 states the following:

"When a person is in demonism and they want to commit suicide they call on on Azrael. Unless you were well versed in demonology you would not chosen that name. The names for these characters are not made up; they come from demonology and the occult"

One thing is very interesting: the author stated that these characters' names aren't made up.  They come from the occult.  The creators and writers of the Smurfs aren't ignorant to these facts.  Their agenda is to push an occult agenda to youth of America. This movie at best is a satanic tool to desensitize the general public to witchcraft/occult, and draw young people that may be curious about the curious arts.



Smurfette the Succubi



The only female smurf of the whole village of males is Smurfette. Smurfette was created by the wizard Gargamel using a magical potion.  Its' ingredients include: "Sugar and spice but nothing nice...crocodile tears...A peck of bird brain...The tip of an adder's tongue...Half a pack of lies, white, of course...The slyness of a cat...The vanity of a peacock...The chatter of a magpie...The guile of a vixen and the disposition of a shrew...And of course the hardest stone for her heart...."  Let's analyze three, shall we?

1.The tip of adder's tongue.  The adder is one of the most deadly snakes in the world.  Its a serpent.    And don't forget, the serpent in the Garden of Eden and how it beguiled Eve. Spiritual serpents can poison someone spiritually and leave its victims spiritually dead.

2. The slyness of cat. slyness is practice of deceit.  Who is the grandmaster of deceit?  Satan himself.  Enough said.

3. Smurfette she was made of a pack of lies.  Satan is the father of lies.

All of Smurfette's ingredients are characteristics of a devil.  In all actuality Smurfette was originally a Succubi/she devil created to bring about the defeat of the Smurfs. She was summoned by Gargamel. So what is a succubi? A Succubus (Succubai plural) is a female demon that appears in a human woman form in the dreams of men in order to seduce them through sexual intercourse. A Succubus is also looked at in modern literature as a highly attractive seductress or enchantress. Their main objective is to bewitch men in order to bring them down to their destruction (see Proverbs 6:23-32).


The orginal purpose of Smurfette's existence was to entice all of the male Smurfs and cause distrust within their community which would ultimately cause.  But eventually Papa Smurf uses good magic to transform Smurfette into a beautiful blonde smurf.




Spirit Led Parenting and Instruction: Key to Combat Occult Influence 

As Christian parents we must be good stewards over our children's spirituality.  We must instill in them a strong foundation of the Word of God and train them up in the way they should go so that when they are old they won't depart from it (Proverbs 22:6). I like the quote from Jeremy White's book entitled, "In His Shadow: Growing With Reggie White." Jeremy is the son of the late great NFL Hall of Famer Reggie White. In his book he quotes an experience he had at six years old while a friend's house. "I was six years old over at my friend's Tammy's house watching television when Tammy's mom Ms. Lynn asked me something that could have compromised my beliefs, "  She told him that he could watch the Smurfs. "I knew my dad wouldn't want me to watch the Smurfs because it had witchcraft in it. Papa Smurf had a black cauldron and would practice alchemy. His nemesis, Gargamel cast spells.  Dad had some beliefs he would waver on, but witchcraft wasn't one of them."  Ms. Lynn told him that it was okay and that his mother wouldn't mind.  He ended up telling her no and that he wouldn't watch the show.  He ended up turning his head and closing his eyes until she turned the channel (here)." 

When his mother came to pick him up, Ms. Lynn told his mother how obedient he was. This was due to Jeremy's spiritual training that his parents instilled in him.  When he was tested he didn't fall under pressure. A key to aiding Christian kids in this dark spiritual condition of America is to get them grounded in the Word of God, prayer, and spiritual warfare. The enemy wants our kids and he is attempting to pull out all the stops. Parents must operate under a much greater level of discernment and a greater knowledge of the Word. Satan is using demonic child's play to bewitch this generation of children through the media as a medium.  Here are some scriptures to consider regarding this subject matter. Be blessed.


Acts 8:9-12 states,
"But there was a certain man, called Simon, which beforetime in the same city used sorcery, and bewitched the people of Samaria, giving out that himself was some great one: whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, This man is the great power of God. And to him they had regard, because that of long time he had bewitched them with sorceries.  But when they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women."

Deuteronomy 18:9-16 states,
"When thou art come into the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of those nations. There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch.  Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee. Thou shalt be perfect with the LORD thy God. For these nations, which thou shalt possess, hearkened unto observers of times, and unto diviners: but as for thee, the LORD thy God hath not suffered thee so to do. The LORD thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken; According to all that thou desiredst of the LORD thy God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear again the voice of the LORD my God, neither let me see this great fire any more, that I die not."

Second Chronicles 33:6 states,
"And he caused his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom: also he observed times, and used enchantments, and used witchcraft, and dealt with a familiar spirit, and with wizards: he wrought much evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger."
