I find myself stupified, comin’ back again

Why, do you like playin’ around with
My, narrow scope of reality?
I can feel it all start slippin’
I think I’m breaking down
Why, do you like playin’ around with
My, narrow scope of reality?
I can feel it all start slippin’ away

See, but I don’t get it
Don’t you think maybe we could put it on credit?
Don’t you think it can take control when I don’t let it?
I get stupified! “It’s all the same, ” you say

Live with it, but I don’t get it
Don’t you think maybe we could put it on credit?
Don’t you think it can take control when I don’t let it?
I get stupified! I get stupified!

All the people in the left wing, rock
And all the people in the right wing, rock
And all the people in the underground, rock
I find myself stupified, comin’ back again

All the people in the high-rise, rock
And all the people in the projects, rock
And all “La Hente” in the barrio, rock
I find myself stupified, comin’ back again

Tefached, ay, ay, ay
(Be afraid)
Tefached, ay, ay, ay
(Be afraid)

And don’t deny me
No, baby, now, don’t deny me
And darlin’, don’t be afraid

But I don’t get it
Don’t you think maybe we could put it on credit?
Don’t you think it can take control when I don’t let it?
I get stupified!

Look in my face, stare in my soul, I begin to stupify, rah!
Look in my face, stare in my soul, I begin to stupify, rah!
Look in my face, stare in my soul, I begin to stupify, rah!
Look in my face, stare in my soul, I begin to stupify, rah!

Look in my face, step in my soul
Look in my face, step in my soul
Look in my face, step in my soul
Look in my face, step in my soul

Look in my face!
(Step inside my soul)
Look in my face!
(Step inside my soul)
Look in my face!
(Step inside my soul)
I begin to stupify, rah!

²¹ Now apart from the law the righteousness of God has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. ²² This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, ²³ for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, ²⁴ and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. ²⁵ God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, through the shedding of his blood–to be received by faith. He did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished–²⁶ he did it to demonstrate his righteousness at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.

²⁷ Where, then, is boasting? It is excluded. Because of what law? The law that requires works? No, because of the law that requires faith. ²⁸ For we maintain that a person is justified by faith apart from the works of the law. ²⁹ Or is God the God of Jews only? Is he not the God of Gentiles too? Yes, of Gentiles too, ³⁰ since there is only one God, who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through that same faith. ³¹ Do we, then, nullify the law by this faith? Not at all! Rather, we uphold the law.
–Romans 3:21-31 (NIV)–

This is the best movie about
the Book of Acts I’ve ever seen.
–J.B.–

I can’t get over the fact that the intro tune sounds exactly like “2 Laws” by Dirt.

Upon the wicked he shall rain snares,
fire and brimstone,
and an horrible tempest:
this shall be the portion of their cup.
–Psalm 11:6 (KJV)–

While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit came on all who heard the message. The circumcised believers who had come with Peter were astonished that the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out even on Gentiles. For they heard them speaking in tongues and praising God.
–Acts 10:44-46 (NIV)–

Oh let the Son of God enfold you
With His Spirit and His love
Let Him fill your heart and satisfy your soul
Oh let Him have the things that hold you
And His Spirit like a dove
Will descend upon your life and make you whole

Jesus, oh Jesus
Come and fill Your lambs
Jesus, oh Jesus
Come and fill Your lambs

Oh come and sing this song with gladness
As your hearts are filled with joy
Lift your hands in sweet surrender to His name
Oh give Him all your tears and sadness
Give Him all your years of pain
And you’ll enter into life in Jesus’ name

Jesus, oh Jesus
Come and heal Your lambs
Jesus, oh Jesus
Come and heal Your lambs

There were also FALSE PROPHETS among the people, just as there will be FALSE TEACHERS among you. They will secretly introduce destructive HERESIES, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them–bringing swift destruction on themselves…With eyes full of ADULTERY, they never stop sinning; they SEDUCE the unstable; they are experts in GREED–an accursed brood!

FIREFLY FROM

HELL!

Now let me talk about an angelic experience with Emma. Twice Bob Jones asked me about this angel that was in Kansas City in 1980: ‘Todd, have you ever seen the angel by the name of Emma?’ He asked me as if he expected that this angel was appearing to me. Surprised, I said, ‘Bob, who is Emma?’ He told me that Emma was the angel that helped birth and start the whole prophetic movement in Kansas City in the 1980s. She was a mothering-type angel that helped nurture the prophetic as it broke out.

Within a few weeks of Bob asking me about Emma, I was in a service in Beulah, North Dakota. In the middle of the service I was in conversation with Ivan and another person when in walks Emma. As I stared at the angel with open eyes, the Lord said, ‘Here’s Emma.’ I’m not kidding. She floated a couple of inches off the floor…Emma appeared beautiful and young–about 22 years old–but she was old at the same time. She seemed to carry the wisdom, virtue and grace of Proverbs 31 on her life. She glided into the room, emitting brilliant light and colors. Emma carried these bags and began pulling gold out of them. Then, as she walked up and down the aisles of the church, she began distributing gold dust. The Lord answered: ‘She is releasing the gold, which is both the revelation and the financial breakthrough that I am bringing into this church. I want you to prophesy that Emma showed up in this service–the same angel that appeared in Kansas City–as a sign that I am endorsing and releasing a prophetic spirit in the church on people.’

Within three weeks of that visitation, the church had given me the biggest offering I had ever received to that point in my ministry. Thousands of dollars! Thousands!…During this visitation the pastor’s wife (it was an AOG church) got totally whacked by the Holy Ghost–she began running around barking like a dog or squawking like a chicken as a powerful prophetic spirit came on her. Also, as this prophetic anointing came on her, she started getting phone numbers of complete strangers and calling them up on the telephone and prophesying over them…Then angels started showing up in the church.

Charisma, “Revivalist Todd Bentley Accused of ‘Sexual Perversion’ With Male, Female Interns.” August 26, 2019. “Stephen Powell, a revivalist at Lion of Light Ministries, accused evangelist Todd Bentley, president of Fresh Fire USA, of ‘sexual perversion’ involving both male and female interns…In the post, Powell asserts that Bentley asked a young single female student to send him pictures of herself and asked what she was wearing on multiple occasions. He also claims that a male intern told him that Bentley offered to pay him $1,000 to perform oral sex on him. That same intern also allegedly claims that Bentley often sent him sexual and naked pictures of his wife, Jessa. Other accusations in the post include alleged testimonies of Bentley being caught with pornography, asking an intern to send him a video of the intern masturbating and being caught drunk or using crude, sexual speech.”

Way of Life, “The International House of Prayer.” March 31, 2015. “The ‘Lakeland Revival’ ended abruptly when Todd Bentley was discredited as an alcoholic and an adulterer, so it is possible that both Jones and Bentley were simply lying and there is no Emma. If she does exist, she is a demon, as angels are never referred to in Scripture in female terms. Further, according to Bentley, ‘Emma’ preaches word-faith, prosperity gospel heresies. In 1991, Bob Jones admitted to ‘a moral failure’ (Lee Grady, ‘Wimber Plots New Course for Vineyard,’ Charisma, Feb. 1993, p. 64). Jones was using his alleged spiritual authority and ‘prophetic anointing’ to induce women to disrobe so they could ‘stand naked before the Lord in order to receive a word.’ It wasn’t long before Jones was back, though, with his own ‘prophetic ministry’ based in Mississippi, and he continued to travel and ‘prophesy’ at charismatic churches and conferences until his death in February 2014.”

(Blessed is he who has got
His transgressions forgiven
And his sins hidden)

Blessed is the man whom the Lord
Will not ascribe his misdeeds
And is without deceit in his spirit

Buried it deep inside
But soon a sprout came forth
It kept on growing
I couldn’t hide

When I kept it to myself
Slowly my bones corroded
And my vitality vanished
Left in the summer to dry

Too many people living this life
Who alone can take their guilt away?
Their minds are rotting
And causing endless pain
Soon they are demented and put away

I confessed my sins to You
And did not hide my guilt
I said, “I want to confess my
Misdeeds to You”
And he took my sins and guilt

He is my sanctuary

–Extol, “Burial”–

I do not permit a woman to teach
or to assume authority over a man; 
she must be quiet.
–1 Timothy 2:12 (NIV)–

Why should ye be stricken any more?
ye will revolt more and more:
the whole head is sick,
and the whole heart faint.
–Isaiah 1:5 (KJV)–

I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
I keep my eyes wide open all the time
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds

Because you’re mine, I walk the line

I find it very, very easy to be true
I find myself alone when each day’s through
Yes, I’ll admit that I’m a fool for you

Because you’re mine, I walk the line

As sure as night is dark and day is light
I keep you on my mind both day and night
And happiness I’ve known proves that it’s right

Because you’re mine, I walk the line

You’ve got a way to keep me on your side
You give me cause for love that I can’t hide
For you, I know I’d even try to turn the tide
