It is God delivering man up to the enslavement described in Ephesians 2:3. “Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.” Note that God responds to man’s actions. Man rejects God, and God rejects man. This is what we see throughout Scripture.

Consider a recent Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN) report “Amazing Salvation Numbers.” At first glance, it appears that there is a great turning from Catholicism to “evangelicalism,” but on closer examination, the evolving one world “church” comes into focus. On one hand, the percentage of Brazilians identifying as Catholic has fallen from 93% in 1950 to about 65% today. The biggest growth is found among Pentecostal-Charismatic churches.

The Sword of the Lord has taught Quick Prayerism since the 1960s and they still publish books by Hyles and others that promote that mythology.
