The naivety of most “spiritual tests” leaves the average pastor or laymen open for spiritual deception. If a healing occurs, if a prophecy is fulfilled, if a spiritual victory is won, if “good” results, then surely it is of God the Holy Spirit. How could satan or his demons have such power? In this lecture the spiritual leader is equipped with a thorough knowledge of the workings of satan and his demonic kingdom and in so doing is equipped to both recognize and oppose his deceptive practices in the church today. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/gci/sermons/9608850162 Religion & Spirituality Sat, 06 Sep 2008 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

You say Mary has appeared to you, tell me the five facial characteristics that distinguish Mary from the demon goddess Aphrodite. You say Jesus has appeared to you, tell me the five facial characteristics that distinguish Jesus from satan. The fact is that we simply do not have the information nor the experience to know what is of satanic spirits and what is of the Holy Spirit when relying on our own unaided mental powers. We must rely upon the holy, eternal, inerrant, written Word of God. You say that you commanded the demon to speak the truth. Well, when you command the wind and the rain do they obey? When you command the sick and ill, are they universally and instantly healed? When you command the dead to rise, do they come to life? No, and when you command the demons to speak the truth you have no more spiritual power to make them speak the truth than you do the wind, the rain, the ill, the infirm nor the dead. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/gci/sermons/9608919536 Religion & Spirituality Sat, 06 Sep 2008 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

This is done more often than not because of a view of this doctrine as cold, lacking both compassion and grace. Nothing however could be further from the truth. The Doctrine of Election expresses as much as any other doctrine the love and compassion of God in his dealing with mankind. Rather than restricting and binding the Christian the doctrine of election frees and protects the Christina both in his personal walk with God and in his ministry. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/gci/sermons/9608814174 Religion & Spirituality Fri, 01 Feb 2008 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

John S. Mahon 1:06:23 no Rev. John S. Mahon - Testing the Spirits - Russian https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/gci/sermons/960881252 Because of the influence of the Pentecostal and Charismatic movements throughout the world we live in an age where Spiritism and spirits are often confused with the work and ministry of the Holy Spirit. This is especially true in the are of signs and icons in the church. More and more in protestant churches we see the equivalent of protestant icons in our art, sculptures and depictions. More and more in protestant churches people are looking for signs as an indication of God's blessing and leadership as opposed to the written Word of God. In this devotional Rev. Mahon interacts with the seminary students on this important issue. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/gci/sermons/960881252 Religion & Spirituality Thu, 31 Jan 2008 12:00:00 +0000 Rev. John S.

Mahon - Testing the Spirits - Russian https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/gci/sermons/960891824 Despite the fact that it is a sin to learn from demons, despite the fact it is a sin to pass on knowledge gleaned from demons, ministers engaged in so called “Deliverance Crusades” continue to do both. God the Holy Spirit makes it clear that He is the only Spirit from which we may learn spiritual truths and it is His holy, inspired, inerrant, eternal Word to which we must go to discover spiritual truth. You say Jesus has appeared to you, tell me the five facial characteristics that distinguish Jesus from satan.

Does there exist a group of second class Christians who only have the Word of God? May it never be uttered! You say this sister has the spirit of greed. Where did you learn of this spirit? It is not revealed by God the Holy Spirit in His eternal inerrant, written Word. No! In direct disobedience to God the Holy Spirit you have talked with demons, you have learned from demons and then you have passed these “doctrines of demons” on to the unsuspecting church. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/gci/sermons/960891824 Religion & Spirituality Thu, 31 Jan 2008 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

Our victory is assured and God's sovereign will and protection hedges us all in. In this two part series Rev. Mahon exposes many of the lies of satan that the church has inadvertently bought lock stock and barrel. The Bible does not teach that satan is the equal and opposite of God. The Bible does not teach that the more satanists who gather together the greater their force becomes. The Bibl does not teach that on some days satan and his followers are more powerful than on other days. The Bible does not teach that there are some parts of the world where satan is more active and powerful than others. The Bible does not teach that some are called to the “Ministry of Deliverance”. The Bible does not teach that we should command demons to speak and then learn from them and then worst of all pass these teachings on to others. The Bible does not provide the church with “rites of exorcism”. What does the Bible teach, that is the question. The holy, eternal, inerrant, written Word of God sheds light on this subject, bringing us to a knowledge of the truth and exposing the lies and deceptions of satan. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/gci/sermons/9608921268 Religion & Spirituality Thu, 31 Jan 2008 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

John S. Mahon 1:02:49 no Rev. John S. Mahon - Testing the Spirits - Russian https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/gci/sermons/96088395310 For most evangelicals – if it is miraculous, if good occurs, if it is spiritual and powerful, then it is of God. This however is not true. God the Holy Spirit clearly teaches the church to beware of false prophets and apostles and to not naively test them by the empirical method but rather by the Word of God. Who better than God the Holy Spirit to know who is and who is not working by and for Him. Who better than God the Holy Spirit to instruct us on how to test these so called prophets and apostles? Who better than God the Holy Spirit to protect and guide the church through these treacherous waters. God the Holy Spirit, speaking through His eternal, inerrant, inspired, written Word is ready to guide, protect and instruct the church if she will only listen, submit and obey. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/gci/sermons/96088395310 Religion & Spirituality Mon, 28 Jan 2008 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

He challenges all the evangelical preachers to gather in the city park. Tow giant altars are erected. He challenges the pastors to call down fire from heaven. What will happen – nothing. Then he calls down fire from heaven and the fire falls consuming the altar. A true miracle along the order of Elijah and the worshipers of Baal has occurred and it cannot be refuted. What will your response be? Who will you follow – the worker of earthly miracles or the teachers of the Word of God. For many, should miracles be preformed then the teaching is valid. A miracle worker heals the sick, then whatever he teaches is accepted as from God. A miracle worker prophecies the future, then whatever he teaches is accepted as from God. A miracle worker blesses you, your family or your church with great prosperity, then whatever he teaches is accepted as from God. A miracle worker teaches and the church miraculously grows into a super church, then whatever he is teaching is accepted as from God. Mysticism, spiritism and prosperity define the work and ministry of the Holy Spirit as opposed to the inspired, inerrant, eternal, written Word of God, the words of the Holy Spirit. In this lecture false teachers are exposed and the tests for exposing them are given. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/gci/sermons/9608848340 Religion & Spirituality Mon, 28 Jan 2008 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

Do we have to ask to receive the Holy Spirit? Does there exist a group of second class Christians who only have Jesus? Does there exist a set of supra-Christians who not only have Jesus but also have the Holy Spirit? Is their a second “Baptism of the Holy Spirit”? What is the difference between the work and ministry of the Holy Spirit in the Old Covenant vs. the New Covenant. In this lecture the doctrine of the receiving of the Holy Spirit is presented from Scriptures, stripped of the mystical spiritism and experiential ecstasy of the Pentecostal and Charismatic movements. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/gci/sermons/9608831220 Religion & Spirituality Thu, 24 Jan 2008 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

Mahon - Testing the Spirits - Russian https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/gci/sermons/9608832522 Man is born depraved and under the judgment of God – he is the “natural” or sinful man as described in Ephesians 2:1 & 2. At the point of his salvation he is elevated to a new spiritual sphere, he is “born again”, he is a “new creature” as taught in II Corinthians 5:17. Does there exist though an even higher plane of spiritual existence. Are those who simply have Jesus second class citizens of God's Kingdom? Is there a second baptism or filling of the Holy Spirit whereby you leave the rest of Christendom behind, those poor shmucks who are simply trusting in Christ and relying upon the holy, eternal, inerrant, Word of God for His divine direction – is there a higher plane for those who are “spirit filled”? Are there carnal churches who worship God as mere Christians as opposed to Sprit Filled churches who have something more? The error of the Charismatic movement is revealed through a clear and precise teaching of the filling of the Holy Spirit from the Word of God. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/gci/sermons/9608832522 Religion & Spirituality Thu, 24 Jan 2008 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

Their influence is so prevalent due to their dominance of the mass media and Christian entertainment industries that it is almost impossible to discuss the Holy Spirit without some form or Pentecostal teaching being brought up in the form of a question or erroneous conviction. Because of this it is necessary to first discuss the Pentecostal movement and thereby lay to rest erroneous teachings and convictions so that a reasoned study of the Scriptures is possible. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/gci/sermons/9608825405 Religion & Spirituality Wed, 23 Jan 2008 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

Mahon - Testing the Spirits - Russian https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/gci/sermons/960882969 We live in an age where spiritual maturity has been replaced with spiritism. An age where anything miraculous is viewed as from God. An age where the work of the Holy Spirit is defined in existential terms – “does it make give me peace?”, “does good result?”. In an age where any apparition is interpreted by the apparition. In an age where any mystical experience is accepted at face value by the authority of the one who experienced it. In an age where experience helps us to understand Scriptures rather than an age where Scriptures define experience. It is an age where the Charismatics and Mystics abound. Before embarking on a study of the Holy Spirit the errors and deceptions of the age must first be addressed and laid to rest. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/gci/sermons/960882969 Religion & Spirituality Wed, 23 Jan 2008 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

Mahon - Testing the Spirits - Russian https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/gci/sermons/960889180 ): God has ordained through His sovereign will that He be known during the church age through the written Word of God. Thus to know God, to grow spiritually and to minister to others one must be a good reader. From Adam to Moses, men knew God through mystical revelation. From Moses to the Apostles, man knew God through both written and mystical revelation but from the church age till the return of Christ, man knows God solely through the medium of the written revelation of God the Holy Spirit. Thus to be spiritually mature one must master the skill of being a good reader. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/gci/sermons/960889180 Religion & Spirituality Wed, 23 Jan 2008 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

A person becomes more active in church. A prophecy is fulfilled. Jesus is proclaimed to be the “holy one of God”. A healing occurs. A revelation is given. Prosperity is bestowed. Inanimate objects come to life. An angel appears. Demons speak. These are just some of the common tests used to determine if a spirit is of satan or if it is the Holy Spirit. Yet all of these tests are wrong. None have their origin in the Word of God as revealed by God the Holy Spirit. All are supplied by deceiving spirits so as to further deceive. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/gci/sermons/960892997 Religion & Spirituality Tue, 01 Jan 2008 12:00:00 +0000 Rev. John S.
