Part 1 - Separating Truth From Falsehood: Spiritual Gifts and the NAR
by Greg DesVoignes
January 16, 2024
How Is The NAR Is Infiltrating Their Seven Cultural Mountains?
The Seven Areas The NAR Is Influencing
 |
As I noted in Part 1, the seven areas of the culture that
the NAR wants to, and is, infiltrating and influencing are;
1. Arts / Entertainment
2. Family /health
3. Business
4. Media
5. Education
6. Government
7. Religion / The Church
I compare the ideology of the NAR to the giant mythological beast called, "The Kraken".
It, like the NAR,
hides in the depths of the sea only to come under a ship and pull it down with
its tentacles before the ship knows its in it's grasp. This is the NAR. Having no outward named
organization, it is concealed in cleverly veiled terminology and methodology,
with only it's tentacles visible as it latches onto the various areas of our
culture.
Some NAR Leadership
 |
NAR Key Leaders |
 |
| Che Ahn - Harvest Rock Church | Kenneth Copeland - Eagle Mt International Church |
Lets take a look and see who, and how, those who follow this NAR ideology have infiltrated society. As this message progresses, note that the number of persons associated with this ideology and the connections between them increases. What I am showing here is just the tip of the iceberg.
The Government
First to look at is Che Ahn at the January 6, 2021 "Stop the Steal" rally in Washington D.C. as seen in the screen shot of a video below. Here Che Ahn is giving an interesting speech where he declares that the NAR will rule with President Trump. Che Ahn said,
“We’re going to throw Jezebel out and Jehu’s gonna
rise up, and we’re gonna rule and reign through President Trump and under the
lordship of Jesus Christ.”

Next, and at the very top of influencing the government of the Presidency of the former President; Donald Trump, were his advisors. Below are some of Trumps NAR associated "Spiritual Advisors". Paula White was his top Advisor. There is Kenneth Copeland, Paula White's friend, Rodney Howard-Browne, James Robison, prosperity teacher Robert Morris, and former head of the Southern Baptist Convention, Ronnie Floyd.

As we continue into the realm of members of government becoming associated with the NAR, it will be increasingly disappointing to say the least. It is my thinking that most of these government officials I feature who are religious in profession, possibly have no idea what they are being ensnared to. However, perhaps some do.
Let's start with Congress
Below is a screenshot of Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor-Green being prayed over by Kenneth Copeland's Flashpoint TV regular panelists, Gene Bailey (Host of show and Associate Pastor at Copeland's church), Lance Wallnau, Dutch Sheets, Hank Kunneman, and Mario Murillo (name titles are mine on the photo). One sad thing about this screenshot is that the video is on the X (Twitter) page of a far left organization called "Right Wing Watch". And this is exactly what they do. They monitor "Christian" movements and organizations and report on what is going on. This, and others like them, totally understand what the NAR is doing and it frightens them; not into turning to God, but that this NAR system wants to rule the government. Their goal is to stop them. Unfortunately, this is their view of Christianity. The other unfortunate thing is these unbelievers get it, but so many in churches and these government leaders do not!
 |
| Marjorie Taylor-Green on NAR Leader Kenneth Copeland's "Flashpoint" Show being prayed over |
I am going to depart a little from the government temporarily here. This next photo is actually an example of infiltration of the NAR into government, and the Church. Below is another photo of Marjorie Taylor-Green, but with a Calvary Chapel pastor by the name of Rob McCoy on Turning Point USA. It is unfortunate, but the NAR has infiltrated formerly good churches along with their pastors. McCoy is also in partnership with Charlie Kirk and Turning Point USA. Kirk is the Face of Turning Point USA. We will see later that McCoy is also a key person in the NAR movement, as is Kirk.
 |
| Marjorie Taylor-Green with Calvary Chapel Pastor Rob McCoy on Turning Point USA |
Below is an announcement on Kenneth Copelands "Victory TV" site that is showing some coming guest speakers. Note here again is Rob McCoy. But also showing up on Copeland's show is Congresswoman Lauren Boebert. Boebert, along with Taylor-Green, is one of the more vocal people in Congress. Also, note a man by the name of Rick Green who is circled in red. His name will come up a number of times; especially in Part 3. The "Flashpoint Army" will be part of this. Also note that Bethel Music's Sean Feucht will also be a speaker. A lot more on him upcoming.
 |
The photo below is a screenshot of Copeland's Flashpoint. Rob McCoy shows is affiliation to these false Apostles and Prophets by being on this panel with Lance Wallnau, Hank Hunneman, and Mario Murillo. Note that McCoy is the featured panel speaker ("Go In And Occupy! w/ Pastor Rob McCoy")
 |
| Calvary Chapel Pastor Rob McCoy on NAR Copeland's Flashpoint panel with false Apostles / Prophets |
Again in continuing with McCoy, we are temporarily
moving to the NAR involvement in the Church, Government, and also in the
Business mandate as seen in the photo below. This is an announcement for a
leadership summit put on by an organization called "Revive California" It
is part of the NAR. But this part of the NAR is under the leadership of
Che Ahn. So McCoy is involved with Copeland and Che Ahn. The
announcement for this summit says,
"On September 16, the ‘America Upheld California
Leadership Summit’ will be hosted by the apostolic network Revive California in
Pasadena, California. Revive California is an
association of apostolic leaders uniting to see historic
revival reformation come to California and the United States, according to the
group's webite". This organization is headed by Che Ahn.
I want to note one of their 5 point strategies. Number 5 says,
"Activate
every believer to vote biblically, and learn
how to run for local, state or national office." Keep this in mind as
it will come up later and also in Part 3.
Some of the Advisory Leaders of this organization include Bill Johnson (Bethel
Church), and Shannon Grove (California State Senator).
Note that the Leadership Summit key speakers are; NAR
leaders, Che Ahn, Bill Johnson of Bethel Church, and Rob McCoy.
Note also that Kari Lake is also a speaker at their "Gala"
along with an NAR Apostolic business leader, Phil Liberator. Also in the
business realm of speakers is a woman by the name of Jenney Donnelly. She
was commissioned by Che Ahn on video to go out into the Business world to bring
people into the NAR. Her and her husband were successful multi-level
marketers. Donnelly is a self proclaimed prophet in addition to being
commissioned as an Apostle.
Also in this are more in the government realm of NAR political candidates that the NAR is trying to place in government positions. Two of these are members of Bethel Church, Redding, CA. Shannon Grove is a member of the California Senate. So we have the influence of the church, government, and the business world.

America Upheld California Leadership Summit
https://americanfaith.com/america-upheld-california-leadership-summit-unites-faith-and-freedom-in-upcoming-elections I want to bring attention to Jenny Donnelly in the above photo. Recall she was anointed by Che Ahn on a video as an Apostle to the Business world part of the NAR as seen in the screenshot photo below. Che Ahn said to Donnelly as seen on the screen, "God is raising up sons and daughters not just on the church mountain... just to qualify, we have commissioned you and Bob in the workplace mountain." Donnelly is a major player and influencer on the female side of the NAR. She has many associations in a number of events with NAR ideologists, Lance Wallnau, Lou Engle, Patricia King, Rob McCoy, Phil Liberatore and many more. She has a ministry called the "Esther Network" and is calling men to be "Mordecias" and women to be "Esthers", and dominate the earth. Keep her in mind because she will come up again at the end of this part with other associations.
|
This next person Mike Pompeo, former CIA Director and Secretary Of State for Trump association with the NAR is disappointing and almost scary. In 2021, Pompeo as well as former Alaska Governor and VP Candidate Sarah Palin were part of a forum hosted by Che Ahn called "Leading With Conviction". The co-host was NAR Prophet Mario Bramnick. Another guest speaker was Pastor Andrew Brunson, the pastor who was imprisoned in Turkey for two years. Just another example of how the NAR pulls people in. After all, if someone as well esteemed as Mike Pompeo is teaming up with Che Ahn, then his ideology must be good.

Music - Arts / Entertainment / Government and Churches
 |
 |
| Sean Feucht - The Pied Piper of the NAR | |
We are not finished with McCoy just yet, but let's look at some other's who are key in infiltrating, business, churches and government. One such person is Bethel Church's worship leader of Bethel Music, Sean Feucht. Feucht, who considers himself a prophet, is what I would call one of the major "Pied Pipers" of the the not so Christian music "industry" that use their music to allure the unsuspecting churches and politicians into the realm of the NAR. After all, Feucht was groomed by the elder leadership of Bethel Church and Bill Johnson as so many of this younger generation of worship leaders have been at Bethel and other NAR leaders.
 |
| Bill Johnson Sr Pastor, Bethel Church, Redding, CA |
Bill Johnson, Sean Feucht's pastor at Bethel Church, Redding, CA said, "Music bypasses all the intellectual barriers, and when the anointing of God is on a song, people will begin to believe things they wouldn't believe through teaching".
Hmm.. Nothing said like this in the word of God where music has precedence over teaching. But it is in the occult. But that is what this music is about. We can see an example of the power of music in Daniel 3 especially vs 3-7.
Church members, worship leaders, and pastors do not realize the power that music has in reaching people's emotions and minds. But the literal "New Age" leadership of the NAR does. A whole cadre of new worship leaders came out of the teachings of Bethel Church, Hillsong, and other like minded churches such as Rick Joyner's MorningStar Ministries. Their music was and is, captivating and somehow became a replacement for the clean worship music of the old hymns and worship songs out of the 70 and early 80s.
Bethel Church has turned out Jesus Culture, Bethel Worship, and Bethel Music, the Torwalts and many others. Bethel Music has sucked in numerous other singers and bands like Phil Wickham, Brandon Lake, and Shane & Shane who performed with Brian & Jenn Johnson at a Red Rock concert. Shane & Shane received a lot of negative responses and warnings (over 1,000) from their followers who are aware of Bethel's heretical New Age teachings. Some said they would not listen to them anymore. Some called them to repent their association to them.
Continuing; Hillsong Church has Hillsong worship and music. Elevation Church has Elevation Worship. These worship bands were sent out as evangelists for these churches in order to increase their followings and pockets. They have been, and are, a snare to thousands of churches. One documentary on the fall of Hillsong's leadership of Brian Houston and his wife, noted that this was the purpose of Hillsong worship band; to draw people into following their church and ideology. All of these are NAR.
I and others have tried to warn about these musical groups for a number of years. Not many wanted to listen; the music was captivating and seemingly good for worship. It is just like the fruit that Satan offered to Eve. In her mind the fruit was pleasant to the eyes, and seemingly good for food (Genesis 3:6). But.... it was a deception as is the music of the NAR and Emergent churches. So while thousands and thousands of churches flocked to the musicians of these NAR churches, they were being set up to accept that these NAR churches and their ideology, as valid. It worked as Bill Johnson said. It bypassed all the intellectual barriers as well as spiritual truths, so people did and do, believe things they wouldn't believe through teaching.
So because of lack of discernment, or tolerating it, knowing the sources are churches with apostate heretical teaching, it was allowed to grow like leaven hidden in a loaf. So it has now been able to reach, not only into churches, but as a viable force and deception into government. Below is one result. The photo below from then VP Mike Pence's Twitter site is of many of the NAR musicians attending a White House meeting and doing a pre-planned worship session led by Brian Johnson, son of Bethel Pastor Bill Johnson.
Note circled are Trump's Advisor Paula White, Sean Feucht in the corner, Brian and Jenn Johnson of Bethel, and Kari Jobe her husband, Cody Carnes. Kari grew up, and was worship leader at Gateway Church whose pastor is NAR Apostle and prosperity doctrine teacher, Robert Morris. He was previously noted in this message. Kari and Cody are friends with NAR prophet James Goll. Goll and his deceased wife are known for summoning and talking with spiritual entities they think are angles of God. Brian Johnson wrote a song in which he is calling on angels. Jenn, his wife, has professed during her messages at Bethel that she has seen and spoken with the Holy Spirit (these just refer to this entity as "spirit"). She claims he is the color blue like Aladdin, and has a funny personality. She also claims that during a service at Bethel, she was pulled up by her hair out of the church into space and was able to look down at the world (occult "teleporting" and "spirit travel". And churches still use their music! More on this occult practice later.
So, this is just a small sample of what the church has tolerated and allowed, instead of being able to discern it is not of God. Thus it has been able to grow and infiltrate the past Administration with ease.
Now I want you to notice something that Pence said in this Tweet here. He said, "America is a proud Nation of believers and our Administration will always defend the freedom of religion of every American, of every faith!" Now this is a very interesting thing to say. He cannot be speaking from the viewpoint of God (for God will not defend religions (of every faith) that oppose him, like, Satanism or Islam), but as a government politician. Think about it. We, as Christians are trying to keep the teachings of Satan out of the schools, but the government says it will defend them too? Isn't there something wrong with this approach? It is very "Constitutional", just not "Biblical". We will see how this defending all faiths came about in Part 3.
 |
How did this music thing work as a deception?
The Covid shutdown of society and especially the shutdown of churches and worship was the spark for this. A great ploy of Satan. But, a number of churches in the United States refused to abide by the demonic inspired mandates of their state's governors and reopened after a couple of weeks of shutdown. The church I am part of was one of them. Large churches with well respected pastors and their churches defied the governor of California and opened among threats by the government. One such church was Real Life Ministries pastored by Jack Hibbs. He will come up later. But this opposition to tyranny also came in the form of one popular worship leader out of Bethel Church; Sean Feucht.
Feucht, already ingrained in thousands of churches because of his popularity as a "worship" leader, started an anti-government shutdown protest movement he called "Let Us Worship". While the pro-vaccine, anti-Christian left called it a "Super Spreader" of Covid, it drew thousands to outdoor concerts. This concert also came to my city, and the associations with Feucht and others were quite revealing, in a bad sense.
For instance, Feucht came to Spokane in 2022 for his tour. His tour was hosted in part by non other than Charlie Kirk's and Rob McCoy's Turning Point USA. Now prior to the concert, Feucht and Rob McCoy met with a former Washington State legislature member by the name of Matt Shea. Shea, who has had numerous associations to militias, white supremacists, and NAR ideologies, especially in the healing side, also wrote a "manifesto" called "A Biblical Basis For War". It espoused excuses for violence he wrongly gleaned from Scripture. Shea was a very prominent news item.
He was removed from his seat in the State legislature after this. But, none the less, Shea remained popular among those who decried the tyrannical government. He is now a "pastor" involved in being a prophet and healer among those in the NAR. Shea is involved in the Healing Rooms in Spokane that came out of Bethel Church where Feucht is from. These rooms came about a man by the name of Cal Pierce. More on this later. The photo below shows this meeting with Shea, Feucht, and McCoy, and Caleb Collier, the Spokane representative for TurningPoint USA and John Birch member.

By 2023 Feucht and the other NAR associated "worship" groups had already infiltrated members of government including the White House in 2020. The infiltration and influence had become quite evident if you were paying attention as the anti-Christian Left has been. Feucht was back in Spokane a year later in the summer of 2023 with his new tour. And in keeping with the method of recruiting government officials using the music and concerts, this time "someone" invited the Mayor of Spokane to attend this concert. But this time the recruitment and association to these NAR people backfired on the Mayor and those who tried to ensnare her.
The photo below is from a screenshot of the concert. At this time Shea invited the Mayor to come on the stage and be prayed over. The Mayor later denied she knew this was going to happen. In the end, the media and others called her out on this association with Matt Shea and the "Christian Nationalist", Sean Feucht. Some called for her to resign (typical of anti-Christian activists). But she was running for re-election as Mayor in the fall, and her left wing opponent made use of this in her campaign and in a debate. The Mayor lost the election. So instead of sucking in another government official, their attempt failed instead. But there is more to just Feucht and Shea at this concert.
On the right side of the photo is a guy by the name of Jay Koopman. Koopman was the MC of the concert. Koopman is a pastor of one of NAR leader's Che Ahn's (inset photo bottom right) Harvest Rock Ministry churches. Again, a revealing of the associations between the players; the NAR has infiltrated the music in a large scale.

Let's move more national and up the government ladder.
Our first national example is Senator Josh Hawley on stage at a "Let Us Worship" 2021 event being prayed for by Sean Feucht (below left photo). On the right photo is NAR Apostle and pastor of Che Ahn's Harvest Rock Church Jay Koopman again, laying hands on Hawley and his wife after Hawley gave a message at this NAR church. Koopman prophesied over the couple saying, "Thank you for how they partnered with us for "Let Us Worship"... God has anointed you for such a time as this... bring transformation to every sphere of society". Again, the cause of the NAR is stated; To; bring transformation to every sphere of society.
Note that the phrase "for such a time as this" is a mantra of the NAR. It refers to Esther 4:14 where Mordecai tell this queen that she may have been born at that time to deliver the Jews from the evilness of Haman who wanted them destroyed.

Below is Feucht with former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, Congresswoman Lauren Boebert, and Florida Governor Ron Desantis. Feutch was at a number of Boebert's events.
 |
| Feucht with Palin, Beorbert, and Desantis |
Going further up the ladder of musical influence and acceptance is seen with Feucht meeting with Trump when he was President (right photo). Of interest is that Feucht was introduced to Trump by NAR associate, Eric Metaxas who was a speaker at a "Let Us Worship" event in New York City. More on him in a minute.
 |
| Sean Feucht with Trump and NAR associate Eric Metaxas |
So lets move on from the music to some other associations and crossovers between the leadership of Kenneth Copeland and Che Ahn and some more disappointing revelations.
The photo below is the governing board for Che Ahn's anti-abortion ministry called "1 Race 4 Life". Here is seen Bethel's pastor Bill Johnson and NAR Apostle and "General", Cindy Jacobs. Also note that friend of Trump and Fuecht, Eric Metaxas is on the board, as is Copeland Flashpoint panel member, Lance Wallnau. We will see shortly that Metaxas is also associated with Copeland.
What is interesting now is that we see the influence into the Arts & Entertainment sphere with Marlyne Barrett. Barrett is an producer and actress. She has appeared on "Wired" and "Chicago Med" as nurse Maggie. Jim Garlow was on Trump's Faith Advisory Board for four years.
 |
The Church
So now to the beginning of additional not so good manifestations of influence in the churches.
Below is a chart that shows some of Pastor Jack Hibbs of Real Life with some of the guests he has hosted in the left side. These include Charlie Kirk of Turning Point USA, Eric Metaxas, and NAR primary leader, Che Ahn. The right side shows these guests associations to the others in the NAR.
We can see that Charlie Kirk was a guest speaker on Kenneth Copeland's Flashpoint panel with Lance Wallnau and Hank Kunneman. Kirk has been a guest a number of times there. Is Kirk really involved with the NAR ideology? Yes. In a quote indicating Trump is a dominionist, Kirk is quoted as saying “Finally, we have a president that understands the seven mountains of cultural influence,” the Turning Point leader said.” https://www.texasobserver.org/christian-youth-radicalization-nationalism-texas/
But it is unfortunate that Jack Hibbs has not seen this or chooses to ignore it. Hibbs has also had Mike Pompeo as a guest panelist at his church.
We can also see that Eric Metaxas is an associate with Bethel's Bill Johnson as well as his association to Feucht. He has also been on Copeland's Flashpoint panel. The real shocking one though is Hibbs' association with the actual key leader of the NAR; Che Ahn. I have to ask, "What was he thinking? I think the answer can be found in the ecumenical standard of finding "common ground" against a mutual enemy as it is with the music end. In this case it was the mutual enemy government in the form of Governor Newsome of California and his lockdown of churches. Che found it an opportunity to connect with Hibbs. It worked..... for then...
But we also have Che Ahn along with Sean Feucht as a participants in Charlie Kirk's TurningPoint USA to as seen below from a video at their "Revival In America" event.
 |
We find a number of instances in the Word where Judah's alliances with one enemy to fight another, ended in disaster. King Asa was one good example. Starting off good with God, and having victories against the enemies of Judah, he chose once to align with the King of Syria to battle against the King of Israel (they were divided at that time). Because of it things went bad for Asa and Judah. The prophet Hanani delivered a message from God to Asa.
7 And at that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah, and said to him: “Because you have relied on the king of Syria, and have not relied on the Lord your God, therefore the army of the king of Syria has escaped from your hand. 8 Were the Ethiopians and the Lubim not a huge army with very many chariots and horsemen? Yet, because you relied on the Lord, He delivered them into your hand. 9 For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him. In this you have done foolishly; therefore from now on you shall have wars.”. 2 Chronicles 16:7-9
After seen this happen a few years ago, I wrote an email to Hibbs and asked him if he knew what Che Ahn was about, as well as Kirk and asked why he had compromised. It never got to him. I got a reply back from an unknown person from his "Ministry Team" that said that everything was alright and not to be concerned. I wrote back and told them the email I had sent was personal to Hibbs and asked them to forward it to him. Never got a reply. I saw online that others who were concerned about this got the same answer, which was silence.

Below is a photo of Hibbs, Kirk and McCoy on one of Charlie Kirk shows. Again, the interrelations of the many people.
 |
| Jack Hibbs with Rob McCoy and Charlie Kirk on the "Charlie Kirk Show" |
There are more associations that I can show here of compromising "Celebrity" pastors, but I will only do one more that is equally disappointing.
The last high profile person I want to show that has ties to the NAR as well as other false teachers is; Greg Laurie of Harvest Christian Fellowship and Harvest Crusades. Laurie was a Calvary Chapel pastor under the founder of this movement, the late Chuck Smith. I used to listen to him until a number of years ago I heard him arrogantly put down one of his own security people in what he described as a "Mall Cop" in a very condescending manner and tone. His speech belittled those who worked security at malls. The security guard's offense? He wouldn't let Greg Laurie's son bring him a forgotten bible into one of his events because he didn't know who he was.
I thought, if I was a security guard at a mall and heard that, Christianity would be far from my thoughts as I would be put down anyway. The changes in Laurie were becoming apparent. He had become a "celebrity pastor" and fell to the entrapments with it in compromises.
I would not say that Laurie is a full on NAR ideologist; but he is all over the place with his association with NAR pastors and other false teachers. In 2017 he departed from the Calvary Chapel movement and joined in with the Southern Baptist Convention although his says his church is still affiliated with Calvary. Unknown what group of Calvary churches he is associated with because there was a split after Chuck Smith died. His Son-in-law took over the Costa Mesa church and that association of churches, and that side went downhill. Many Calvary Chapel churches departed from the Costa Mesa affilations. The SBC too has been known to become a compromised denomination (see: "Churches Leaving the Southern Baptist Convention' https://www.wayoflife.org/reports/churches_leaving_the_southern_baptist_convention.php.)
Below are just some examples of Laurie's associations with false teachers. The first is Laurie and his wife with actress Roma Downey and her husband. Downey is a Catholic with New Age and NAR ideals. The right photo shows her association to the NAR in being a speaker at a "International Culture Shapers Summit". Note that also there is Lance Wallnau and the red arrow points to the text, "Over 40 leaders in the 7 cultural mountains will be participating."
 |

Below are photos of Laurie with prosperity and NAR pastor Robert Morris (left), in D.C. with Franklin Graham and NAR pastor Paula White (center), and in Jerusalem with false teacher Jentezen Franklin (right)
 |
| Laurie w Robert Morris - Laurie w Franklin Graham & Paula White - Laurie with Franklin Jentezen |
The next association(s) concern first, Greg Laurie endorsing one of Paula White's books. But since there are other well known pastors who one would not think would associate with White, I am including them here below also. All had associations to Trump while in office. There is really a lack of discernment among all these people. Both Laurie and Jeffress say the book gives hope, while Graham notes White was a "trusted" advisor to Trump and you might want to check out the book. All of these gave validation to one of the most openly NAR and occult involved pastors in this movement.
 |
Infiltrating The Church Through Media - Secular and "Christian"
A most disappointing revelation for many will be seen in the following. It has already been established that Charlie Kirk and Rob McCoy's popular organization, TurningPoint USA is ingrained with the NAR ideology and associations. Kirk, as we will see, along with McCoy, is a regular on Kenneth Copeland's Flashpoint show. And as already established, Kirk is an adherent to the Seven Mountain Mandate. Now when we look at the photo below that shows TurningPoint USA's (TPUSA) honorary board, it becomes obvious that some well known and trusted persons in the secular media have also been drawn into it.
The TPUSA board consists of Newsmaxes Eric Bolling, Sebastian Gorka and a Fox News researcher, Sara Carter. In addition we see current and former members of the government such as for Ambassador and Director of National Intelligence under Trump, Rick Grenell, Retired Col Allen West, and former Congresswoman Michele Bachmann, and former Senator Jim Demint. Note to that Mike Lindell is here too. All these give the appearance to many that TPUSA is a trustworthy organization doing good work. But it is the underlying ideology that taints it all.
 |
| TurningPoint USA Honorary Board of news media and former members of government |
It is evident that Charlie Kirk and TPUSA are also involved with Kenneth Copeland as seen in the photo below that shows that a least four times Kirk has been a guest panelist and speaker on Copeland's Flashpoint show and events. Note in the photo below on the top right is Kirk on the same panel with NAR Apostles/Prophets Lance Wallnau and Hank Kunneman and Flashpoint host and associate pastor at Copeland's church, Gene Bailey. It is hard to get closer to the NAR than this.
 |
| Charlie Kirk of TurningPoint USA has been a guest on Copeland's Flashpoint a number of times |
I want to add two more photos to this TPUSA association to further the sound connections here. Below is another photo (left) of TurningPoint USA leader, Rob McCoy on a panel with false prophet Dutch Sheets and non other than Kenneth Copeland's daughter, Terri Copeland - Pearson. She is a co-pastor of Copeland's Eagle Mountain Int Church. The photo on the right shows another episode with TPUSA honorary member Michele Bachmann as a guest along with Copeland's regular false Apostles/Prophets Lance Wallnau, Hank Kunneman, and Dutch Sheets again. Also to be noted are Metaxas who as earlier seen, is also associated with Che Ahn, and unfortunately, Calvary Chapel pastor Jack Hibbs, and again Rick Green who will be of significance in Part 3.

One of the other ways the NAR has slipped in to churches is through Christian educational media, which can effect both children and adults in reading material and videos. One such avenue is a very popular company called "RightNow Media". It is a subscription based source of materials, written and video, that churches can purchase and then give access to members of their congregations. This company boasts a library of 20,000 videos of which 2,000 are for children, There is a problem with this company in that they do not seem to understand anything about the NAR, its false teachers, or just plain agree with the ideology.
A very obvious to me indication of RighNow Media at the very least accommodating NAR associated persons is their "Poster Boy" spokesman, Francis Chan. RightNow Media actually has him as a featured endorsing person to advertise this company. And this photo below is used by churches to advertise this source of material to their congregations. In addition to Francis Chan being flaunted, the people RighNow Media list in their leadership of authors are part of the NAR, or just plain false teachers. See the photo below.
 |
| Francis Chan - Poster Boy for RightNow Media |
Below are some of the list of false teachers with
material available in RightNow Media's library.
Right Now Media NAR
and other false teachers
Francis Chan (Associates and promotes NAR Apostles, Catholic
Church etc.)
Loui Giglio (NAR associate)
Tony Evans (NAR associated)
Bob Goff (Promotes Enneagram, etc., associate with Jen
Hatmaker and other false teachers)
Eric Matexas (NAR associate – Bethel etc.)
J.D. Greear (SBC- supports NAR Apostle Beth Moore)
Matt Chandler (NAR associated)
John Mark Comer (New Age – Enneagram – Mindfulness – Richard
Rohr)
Jennie Allen
(Emergent church- IF ministry – associates with
other false teachers ; Chandler, Comer, Social Justice, Enneagram)
Pete Grieg (Lectio Divina teacher)
Craig Groeschel (False teacher, associates with NAR followers
/ Hillsong)
Max Lucado (Endorses false teachers as Steven Furtick, Jen
Hatmaker, etc)
Tim Mackie (False teacher – creator of The Bible Project)
Ben Stuart (Associates w Loui Giglio Passion Conferences that
host false teachers, worship bands)
The above list are just a few that I found. It would be impossible to go through 20,000 videos to see whether they are teaching adults and children false teachings. However, the fact that this company is associated with, and promotes one of the most popular of the NAR ideologists (Francis Chan), and highlights the above list of false teachers on their site, is reason to avoid it. I would say that most people do not pay attention to, nor test the spirits to even know who the above people are so as to avoid them.
The Family & Health Mountain - Gift of Healing - Healing Rooms
Some of this sphere of the NAR comes in the form of the the faith healers of the past, and of today. Some in this age are or have been; Benny Hinn, Carlos Annacondia (Argentina), Todd Bentley, Oral Roberts, Peter Popoff, and Catholic Priest Richard McAlear. And, there were a number of faith healers of long ago. One in particular of the early 1900s that never really went away. that is popular with the NAR group is the very late, John G. Lake. Lake, a self proclaimed prophet and healer of the early Apostolic movement, was the pastor of two churches in the early 1900's; one in Portland, Or, and one in Spokane, WA. Prior to that he started an Apostolic Church in Africa around 1906. I am not going to go into much of his history here, there is enough on-line and I did an extensive article on him in 2000. I updated it in 2021. It is called "The Revival of John G. Lake's Ministry Healing Rooms".
The short story is, Lake started what he called "The Divine Healing Institute" and "The Divine Healing Rooms" in Spokane. This ran from about 1915 to 1920 at which time he moved away to Portland, OR and started doing things there. It then started back in Spokane about 1931 when he moved back to Spokane. He died in Spokane in 1935. Lake prophesied back in about 1927 that there was going to be a revival in the Pacific Northwest region. It never came about. In 1997 another NAR associated false prophet by the name of Bobby Connor who visited Lake's grave, prophesied again that there would be a revival in the Pacific Northwest. It was then called, "The Pacific Northwest Revival".
Connor is friends with NAR leaders Paula White, Che Ahn, Bill Johnson, Rick Joyner, James Goll, as well as others. Kenneth Copeland is a big fan of Lake and wrote a book on his messages. Copeland, like Lake, have said that Christians are gods. Thus, the foundational unbiblical beliefs alone of Lake remove any validity of his ministry. There are many more untold things from his ministry by his followers that also show his heresies and character. I show some in my article on him. Others have too.
One of the many fallacies associated with Lake and the healing rooms is the statement that Lake "healed" 100,000 people in a five year period in his healing rooms. This is not what Lake said. What Lake said is that he "ministered" to 100,000 people, not healed 100,000. That was about the population of all of Spokane County at that time. But so the legend began on a falsehood. More on this 100,000 later.
Spokane Healing Rooms Re-established

So, it was John Lake that started the "Healing Rooms" in Spokane. He died in 1935, but the prophecies and the idea of the healing rooms continued on. In about 1997 a man by the name of Cal Pierce out of Bethel Church, Redding, CA when it was called Bethel Assembly of God, moved to Spokane after reading about John Lake. Pierce is considered an Apostle within the NAR group. He said the "holy spirit" told him to come to Spokane to visit the grave of John Lake. He spent a year visiting Lake's grave and praying over it every month for a year. (Photo to left of Pierce with the false prophet / apostle from Copeland's panel, Dutch Sheets.)
Witchcraft & Familiar Spirits
In an interview of Pierce by false prophet
Wesley Campbell, husband of the rapidly twisting head prophet, Stacey
Campbell, Pierce said he laid on top of Lake's
grave to get an "Elijah" anointing from this
dead person. (A demonic practice out of Bethel called "Grave
Sucking" of which Lake's grave draws many for this. ) He basically said God told him to
start the healing rooms up again, which he did in 1999. Pierce
basically said that he, and these healing rooms are the fulfillment of Connor's
and Lake's prophecies. (See: "
The photo below is a screenshot of that interview with an inset of Wesley and his wife, Stacy Campbell. Now note the photo below this one. It is a photo of CheAhn's International Apostolic Council with Wesley and Stacey (among others) who are part of it.

Now in that same interview, Pierce told Campbell that one day as he was praying and leaning against a tree next to his grave, he felt he was being watched. He said he turned and looked around and saw John Lake himself standing near in his well known white suit. Pierce said he then disappeared. There are no positive references in the Word concerning the manifestations of the dead. In fact, the word actually condemns the calling up the dead, calling it "necromancy" and those that engage in this "necromancers" or those who contact "familiar spirits", i.e. spirits of the dead (demons manifesting as) Deuteronomy 18: 10-13 . By the way, that tree Pierce was leaning against was another focal point of necromancy as people would hug it to get Lake's anointing through the roots. It blew over in a windstorm in November 2015.
This having contact with the dead (demonic spirits) would be acceptable to these Lake followers because Lake himself contacted a Spiritist to conjure up his recently diseased wife to ask her permission to marry another woman. Lake was also involved in "spirit travel" or teleporting himself to other locations. He spoke of this a number of times. A number of people in the NAR are also involved in this as I will point out later.
In the same interview with Wesley Campbell, Pierce told him of two encounters with angels and supernatural events in his then new healing rooms. When describing one encounter he said it was in the building Lake had his rooms in and the angel told him he had been waiting there seventy years. In another, Lake said this angel showed him plans for a car that ran off of water. Let's look at these. Pierce never said anything about having a fear coming over him, nor bowing down before these beings as we see was the case with angelic encounters in the Bible. His friend, NAR false prophet, James Goll, is another who speaks with these entities. These things are not angels of God, but demonic spirits.
God's true Angels are "Messengers" of God and "Messengers" of his Word, "ministering spirits" (Hebrews 1:4), not messengers of how to build some machine or one standing in a room (that was burned down in a fire) for 70 years. But along with this, Pierce said that when anyone walked into this particular room that had a silver carpet, they had to walk on the sides and not in the center. Why?, you may ask. Pierce said there was an unseen "vortex" in the middle that would knock you down. Again, some paranormal activity not seen in the Bible anywhere; but demonic, of the occult, of the New Age.
For instance, Pierce was a contributor to a chapter in a book produced by Bethel. Called, "The Physics of Heaven" it was the inspiration of two Bethel members after visiting some New Age gurus in Sedona Arizona. They desired to glean New Age practices in incorporate them into "christianity". Sedona is considered a high place of "spiritual energy" among occult practitioners. Several leaders of Bethel contributed to it including Bill Johnson, Kris Vallatton, and the then leader of Jesus Culture, Banning Leibscher. Pierce notes some of these paranormal experiences in his chapter.
Since 1999, these healing rooms have been started in various places around the world (68 countries according to the Healing Rooms website) and have become popular among those in the NAR ideology. The only "revival" was this practice that spread out. But actual revival ? No. Even Bill Johnson's Bethel Church has a healing room. Pierce is head of what is called "The Healing Rooms Global Network" and "The School of Transformation" as seen in the photos below. By the way, one of Spokane's major industries is the health system, not the healing rooms.
The copy on the Healing Rooms Global Network gives its purpose as "Get equipped and trained to bring healing, signs and wonders to the world today, on Earth as it is in Heaven"
The description of the School of Transformation says, “When you register your own Healing Room, Church or Organization for a Whole Year, you will be able to download our entire School of Transformation which is normally $300.00.”
It also says,
“Learn By Doing, This School Will
Include:
Experiencing an atmosphere of healing
Bringing prophetic words to people in the city
Giving and receiving encouragement through participation to the seven major institutions that influence society (a.k.a. the Seven Mountains of Society)
Curriculum Includes: “Walking In The Supernatural” - MP4 $60.00
Teachings from Cal Pierce, Bill Johnson, Kris Valloton, Graham Cooke, Johnny Enlow, Shawn Bolz, Randy Clark, Danny Silk, Tom and Sharon Murphy.”

Now it is interesting that the student is supposed (1) "Experience" and "atmosphere" of healing, (2) bring prophetic words to the city, and in this giving and receiving encouragement via "participation" to the "seven major institutions that influence society (a.k.a. the Seven Mountains of Society" and (3) learning how to walk in the supernatural. All of this somewhat mirrors the Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry, which does the same thing. This makes sense too because two of the teachers are the Pastor and Associate Pastor of Bethel, Bill Johnson and Kris Valloton. The others are known false prophets in the NAR ideology.
Interesting; you have to create an "atmosphere" to enable healing? From the video I have seen of the Bethel Church Healing Rooms, the atmosphere is continual music, dancing, dancing and waving banners, and people doing "prophetical art". However I don't believe there is anything in the Bible that shows where some kind of "atmosphere" had to be arranged for Jesus, the Disciples, or Apostles to heal. Now like Bethel, the people who went through the BSSM classes, were sent out into the city to prophecy to people, so are Healing Rooms graduates. The end goal is to get people to participate in becoming influencers in the Seven Mountains of the culture.
Bethel Encounter Room - Similar To Hindu Practice

| Video - Bhagwan Rajneesh's Dynamic Meditation to Bethel's Encounter Room | |
Check out the video below -left in which I have compiled a clip of one of Bethel's "Encounter Room" and compared it to the practice of a Hindu guru's "Dynamic Meditation". The guru, Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh and his followers had a plan in the early 90s to take over Antelope, Oregon's government by getting members of this cult elected to city positions (Like the NAR). To help facilitate this, they rigged the elections by introducing a bacteria into the salad bars of some restaurants so people would get sick and not be able to vote. Seven hundred got sick. He was not arrested, but deported. He plan was, like the NAR, to take over the United States and push his religion.
Bethel and like minded NAR churches as well as their "worship" leaders, including Sean Feucht at his concerts, push and try to evoke "encounters" with God. The sad thing is, while not found being taught in the Bible, they are part of the teachings and experiences of Hinduism and other Eastern Religions.
Paying To Learn Supernatural Experiences
Now like what was brought up in Part 1 on the gifts of the spirit, in opposition to the Word of God, these healing rooms and the training to learn are going to cost. For instance as seen above, one of the curriculum to learn how to walk in the supernatural, cost $60.00 . According to the website of the School of Transformation, the cost for this is normally $300.00, but... free if you, or your church or organization sign up for a year. Sounds like a business offer, not a Biblical thing. Becoming a member of the Global Healing Network can be obtained for $149.00 a year. Such a deal to enter into the realm of healing and the supernatural.
Now at Bethel Church, the cost for the healing school is $165 and $220 for leaders. (See below)

| Bethel has healing school and healing rooms - Note the cost of the classes to learn how to heal. |
But let's be reminded again from Part 1 what the Word says about paying for a "gift" from God without payment to receive it.
18 And
when Simon saw that through the laying on of the apostles’ hands the Holy Spirit
was given, he offered them money,
19 saying, “Give me this power also, that anyone on whom I lay
hands may receive the Holy Spirit.”
20 But
Peter said to him, “Your money perish with you,
because you thought that the gift of God could be purchased with money!
21 You have neither part nor portion in this
matter, for your heart is not right in the sight of God.
22 Repent
therefore of this your wickedness, and pray God if perhaps the thought of your
heart may be forgiven you. 23 For I see that you are poisoned by
bitterness and bound by iniquity.”
Acts 8:18-23
It appears there should be a lot of repenting going on.
Healing Rooms Didn't Heal During Covid????
There is another thing that is far overlooked with these healing rooms; they were closed during the Covid lockdowns! So let's reason about this. Why were healing rooms closed if their purpose was to heal, and to heal at a time of a global disease crisis? Was there no power over this?
At about the end of the mask mandates and lockdowns, I was sitting next to a woman at a church that had a guest speaker. She mentioned that she was happy that the healing rooms in Spokane would be open again so she could go back???? I asked her, if the healing rooms were closed, what did this say about the power of God to heal someone with Covid? Didn't the operators of these rooms believe God would heal those with this disease? She said she had never considered that before. Bethel Church's rooms closed too!
It is interesting that within the time of Lake's healing rooms (1915-1920), there was a worldwide flu "pandemic" in 1918 called the "Spanish Flu". According to media documents from that time in Spokane, the reaction was not much different then as it was during Covid. Lockdowns, and the county health departments became the law enforcement for them; even having the power of arrest. Spokane was one such city like this.
According to a Spokesman-Review article, by the end of this pandemic 50 to 100 million people in the world died from it. In Spokane, a city of about 150,000 then, 17,000 got sick and 1,045 died ("The doctor and the pandemic: Spokane’s 1918 fight against the Spanish influenza"| The Spokesman-Review https://www.spokesman.com/stories/2019/jan/20/the-doctor-and-the-pandemic-spokanes-1918-fight-ag/). But what about the healing rooms and Lake? Didn't happen the either. An article noted that Lake took care of the sick and removed bodies from homes. (See articles on this)
As with the other NAR adherents, I will show some of the NAR people that Pierce associates with. And these are just a few of many.
Let's look at another of Cal Pierce's Spokane associates who has a list of other NAR people as associates. This is Matt Shea whom I have shown prior, but will again to highlight more links to Che Ahn. But first Pierce and Shea. Pierce was a guest speaker at one of Shea's services at his church, On Fire Ministries as seen in the screenshot photo below. Both the healing rooms and On Fire Ministries are at the same building.

Fire Ministries church |
Earlier I showed that some of Matt Shea's NAR associates included Sean Feucht, and Rob McCoy of Turning Point USA and Jay Koopman. I also showed that both McCoy and Koopman are associated with a key leader of the NAR, Che Ahn. So let's take this "connect the dots" further.
The screenshot below shows a previously noted NAR associate and Apostle, Jenny Donnelly, as a guest speaker at Matt Shea's On Fire Ministries Church. And who is she associated with and partners with? As seen in the afore shown event and video, she is associated with Che Ahn, who commissioned her as an Apostle to the Business sphere. Connelly was also a speaker at Che Ahn's Leadership Summit with Che Ahn, Bill Johnson, Rob McCoy and others. She is also associates with Kenneth Copeland's Panel member Lance Wallnau (see photos below). She his also heavily involved in women's ministries which is one of her inroads to spread the NAR ideology. While now living in Portland, OR, she was born in eastern Idaho and did some sort of internship in Spokane at one of the hospitals.
Her goal is, through advertising her ministries (Her Voice Movement" -HerVoiceMVT and the Esther Network) and getting women to form prayer hubs across the United States, is planning prayer vigils at every state capitol in 2024 and culminating with a million woman gathering at the nations' Capitol in October of 2024. The purpose is to stop government and school interference in trying to influence children in things like Transgenderism. Noble cause, but wrong master plan, for it introduces one to the NAR Seven Mountains and to become one of it's influencers in one of the spheres. Donnelly considers herself a prophet and is into prophetical dreams. Her and her husband have a class on interpreting dreams.

Conclusion
There are many more false Apostles and Prophets of the NAR ideology and associations. This is only the tip of the iceberg and is just a sample to show a little bit on who some of the main players are and how they are infiltrating the various aspects of the culture into their so called Seven Mandate ideology to, in their own thinking, prepare the world for Jesus by taking it over.
There is just one more aspect of this ideology and a seductive method they are using to "unify" the American conservative and Christian population. That is; Patriotism. Part 3 of this series will discuss how they are doing this as way to bring both Conservatives, and Christian Conservatives into following the principles of the NAR.

A Message To Those Who Don’t Know God and His Salvation
If you are not a believer, but you just might think that there is something to
what you have read here, you may want to learn more.
God does not want anyone to perish eternally, nor to even go through the
Tribulation which is seven years of Hell on Earth.
Here is a place to start to learn about the salvation that God has for
you.
The ABCs of Salvation
Some people think a personal relationship with God is something only theologians
can comprehend. Actually, God’s plan of salvation is simple enough for everyone
to understand. Here are the ABCs of salvation.
Admit
Admit to God that you are a sinner. All persons need salvation. Each of us has a
problem the Bible calls sin. Sin is a refusal to acknowledge God’s authority
over our lives. Everyone who does not live a life of perfect obedience to the
Lord is guilty of sin. “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God”
(Rom. 3:23). Since none of us is perfect, all of us are sinners (Rom.
3:10-18).The result of sin is spiritual death (Rom. 6:23). Spiritual death means
eternal separation from God. By God’s perfect standard we are guilty of sin and
therefore subject to the punishment for sin, which is separation from God.
Admitting that you are a sinner and separated from God is the first step of
repentance, which is turning from sin and self and turning toward God.
Believe
Believe in Jesus Christ as God’s Son and receive Jesus’ gift of forgiveness from
sin. God loves each of us. God offers us salvation. Although we have done
nothing to deserve His love and salvation, God wants to save us. In the death of
Jesus on the cross, God provided salvation for all who would repent of their
sins and believe in Jesus. “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and
only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life”
(John 3:16).
Confess
Confess your faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord to others. After you have
received Jesus
Christ into your life, share your decision with another person. Tell your pastor
or a Christian friend about your decision.
If you do not go to church or have a pastor, ask God to lead you to a
church that teaches truth and the gospel.
Following Christ’s example, ask for baptism by immersion in your church
as a public expression of your faith. “If you confess with your mouth, ‘Jesus is
Lord,’ and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be
saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is
with your mouth that you confess and are saved” (Rom. 10:9-10).
Then take the time to learn from, and of God. Study the Bible. Get a
New King James, New American Standard, or a King James version to begin your
study. The first two are easier reading. The King James has more
word study materials with it but the old language may be a little harder to
read.
