Peter Grieg of the 24-7 Prayer Movement, an international, ecumenical movement laced with Gnostic, New-Age, and Contemplative spirituality, is reviving the 17th century mystical Masonic Order of the Mustard Seed.  Recruited members are required to take a life-long vow of commitment to the Order and the outward sign of this commitment is to be symbolized with a ring or tattoo. [1] The Order of the Mustard Seed was originally a secret order started by Count Nikolaus Ludwig von Zinzendorf and is listed in “The History of Freemasonry” by Albert G Mackey as being a long dormant Masonic Order. Greig claims he was inspired to resurrect the order by the 18th century Moravian renewal and the life of Count Zinzendorf. Understanding the significance of the resurrection of this order and of the overall resurgence in the interest in Zinzendorf is key to understanding the state of the apostate church and where it’s headed.

Have you noticed lately that most of the big names in the Prophetic and Apostolic Movement are increasingly sprinkling the term DNA into their vocabulary? No longer content to hide their damnable heresies, they are brazenly flaunting their apostasy to the unsuspecting church through their use of double speak. It is a known fact that nothing is harder to find than something hidden in plain sight.

To understand the serious implications of their use of the term DNA, it is important to understand that the Dominionist doctrine embraced by an increasing number of apostate ministries is straight from the occult.   From the very seeds of civilization, Gnostic sects and keepers of the Gnostic Kabalistic dogma have spoken of humankind evolving into a God-like being. The Kabbala calls this being the Adam Kadmon, or “God Man.”   The name “Adam” refers to the entire human race and the term “Kadmon” refers to completion. Thus, Adam Kadmon speaks of a return to our beginning, with all the knowledge, wisdom, and enlightenment of the first “Adam.”  Those who embrace this doctrine firmly believe we can return to the Garden of Eden by becoming the Adam Kadmon and creating Heaven on Earth.

According to their website, the next phase of the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) is the United States Apostolic Alliance (USAA). Usapostolicalliance.org Dutch Sheets is one of four men in leadership over the USAA under presiding Apostle C. Peter Wagner. It is Wagner’s desire to organize a global church under a hierarchical network of apostles to take dominion and govern the global church and governments in order to take dominion of the world for Christ.

 In the first part of this two part article we discussed Dutch Sheets claiming that God visited him on June 15^th 2008. During this alleged visitation “God” told him to host His presence for 90 days and to hold 3 days of worship starting September 11^th through the 13^th to mark the last three days of the 90 day period.  The 90 days would serve to incubate and mature the movement before it would be released mainstream. Enter Moses.

If there is one thing I have learned about the self named apostles and prophets of the New Apostolic Reformation, it is this.  It can ALWAYS get weirder. A recent circulating YouTube video clip of Chuck Pierce and Robert Heidler has proved this yet again.  This relatively short clip was taken from a larger one in which we see Pierce extolling the virtues of singing with the planets - the sound of heaven.  He tells the audience that some of their organs will come alive.  What exactly does that mean? He claims that he can see strands of DNA being reprogramed by the sounds of heaven and that he can see the earth rising up to the sounds of heaven to bring forth the plan of the land. A grey haired lady with the eyes of a cheap fortune teller, makes an appearance a few minutes in and gives a prophesy that I can only describe as creepy.  This is followed by strange sounds by a man on stage.  I give this a 90/100 on the wierdness scale.

The thought of something “new” is always scintillating to the senses. In a society that from childhood is looking for a new fad, it is not surprising that a preposterous new doctrine would be sweeping the church. The most disconcerting aspect is that this time we can not question this doctrine. It must be accepted blindly as a “new revelation” coming from the “anointed” Last Day “prophets.” If we question, we are: (1) divisive, (2) have a “Jezebel spirit” and even, (3) called witches.

Everyone hates a mosquito. There is just something infuriating about these little insects thinking they can suck our blood. In the natural, not one of us would stand and watch a mosquito draw our blood without swatting it away. However, in the spiritual, we the church are doing just that. There is a growing force sucking the life Blood out of us and we are welcoming them in and making them at home. However, far from harmless mosquitoes, these parasites are lethal. They are the reformers of the church, the new crusaders if you will, the gathers of the global church.  They are the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR), and they are coming for your church.

 The new Apostolic Reformation (NAR) sprang from the Pentecostal and Charismatic movement.  They claim that they have been given authority to lay the foundation for the “new” global church. They believe they are restored apostles called and ordained by God to be the government for the emerging “New Order” church.  In order to maintain this governance they stress strict obedience and submission to them in all matters. They claim they hear directly from God, and many claim that Jesus visits them in person. Like the true biblical apostles who established the early church, these so called restored apostles believe they are called to lay the foundation and government for the new Kingdom (one world church).  Their goal is complete and utter control of the church and subjugatation of its current governance to them. They want power, dominion and total control.  They truly believe that the world is awaiting fulfillment of a take over by a militant church (Joel’s Army) that will arise, govern and dominate the world politically and spiritually. This is a highly organized group with a global agenda.  It has been well thought out, well strategized, and will be implemented with military precision.    The grid is in place - our future is planned.
