Warning! Warning! "Son of God Film is New Age- by Pennie Dewitt. Two years ago, on a special show on Revelation TV, myself, Doug & Michael spoke of the Last Days Luciferian Initiation or The Great Invocation, as The Lucis Trust, (formerly known as Lucifer Publishing Company), sometimes calls it. We shared that on tv, as we felt the Holy Spirit prompt us to, simply as it seems the right time to warn people to be cautious. As we said on the show, this will be subtle. Society will not be blatantly asked to follow Lucifer or Satan. Obviously, if you were asked, you’d refuse! But the Luciferian Initiation is still taking place, by many means, whether through ‘mild’ New Age practises and media, or more blatant Occult or cult activities. I saw online that some churches Son Of God postcards as Outreach Tools, to share the Gospel message with their community, not realising the film portrays a false Jesus! My dear online friend Pennie kindly gave me permission to share her article. She is a former Lightworker, Medium and Occultist of 26 years. She is therefore, highly qualified to speak on this topic. Please read it, before you consider going to see this film! All About the “Son of God” Movie by Pennie De Witt, former Lightworker and occultist of 26 years. “This is a compilation of all my posts on the Son of God movie, in sequential order. The image on the left is Sananda. He is frequently channeled by new agers and he is a real spirit. He is the Jesus that the Lightworkers are promoting. The production company that made the “Son of God” movie is called Lightworkers Media. If you pray to receive the Lightworkers’ Jesus at the end of “Son of God,” this is the guy who will answer your prayer. The link below is to just one chapter in “The New Scriptures,” written by him through one of many mediums who channel him. As you can see, he adds to scripture, promotes the love of Self (with a capital S) before the love of God or others, and derides “all the major religions.” He says, “It is time to put an end to the self-loathing and despair which has been taught by all the major religions in some form.” This is what he will lead you to believe if you accept him into your heart. He says, “There is no vengeance, no punishment nor any threat of disapproval or any other dark judgment in God’s Love. This is the mythology of the past, and it is a misunderstanding of what God feels toward his/her children.” He strips God of His holiness and even attempts to prime us for goddess worship. He states, “I AM Love because I am God, just as you are.” Never mind what Jesus said in John 8:23. “And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.” He urges us to use our own “God” power. “All can manifest the Dream of their Hearts if they only have Faith in their own power.” He teaches reincarnation, “This is what you have lived and died for in many past lifetimes, Dear Ones,” using references from the Bible. “You are indeed at the threshold of the Promised Land.” He then reveals, clearly, his teaching that you are God. “It is in turn fueled by the Love of your Higher Self, God.” (This is a teaching directly from satan. Isaiah 14:14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.) I channeled Sananda when I was a Lightworker. And he was one of the spirits who tried to torture me after I renounced occultism and turned to Jesus. This is the Jesus Lightworkers believe in. And this is the Jesus they want YOU to believe in. You can be sure that a movie about Jesus is going to contain subtle depictions of Sananda. Sananda is not Jesus. He is a demon. And the movie, “Son of God” was produced by people who serve that demon. Here is the text that the above quotes came from:http://lightworkers.org/channeling/186869/chapter- seven-new-scriptures-written-sanandajesus One website that features this exact picture of Sananda: http://homolkova.cz/indexsananda.html?page=struct&way=17-mistri%2F81- sananda%2Findex.xml&p=sananda Here is the production company that made the movie “Son of God.”http://www.lightworkersmedia.com/ Here is Roma Downey’s Facebook page, listing Lightworkers Media as her production company: https://www.facebook.com/Roma.Downey/info Also, if you check my comments below this picture (on the original post, which is at this link: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10152303399634603&set=a.10150096177304603.305916.71 6534602&type=1&permPage=1) you will see that I am not the only ex-occultist turned Christian who remembers this picture of Sananda. Can God use a movie like this to spread the gospel? Of course He can. He can use psychics too. He used me to encourage my clients to read the Bible before I closed my business and gave my life to Him. But this doesn’t mean we should start promoting psychics or that I should go back into business. Matthew 7:18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. The enemy is defeated by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimonies. Not by movies made by people who hate Christianity. The producer of the “Son of God” movie is a new age occultist and an idolator. This is her on the cover of OM Timesmagazine. According to Wikipedia, OM is “placed at the beginning of most Hindu texts as a sacred incantation to be intoned at the beginning and end of a reading of the Vedas or prior to any prayer or mantra. It is used at the end of the invocation to the god being sacrificed to (anuvakya) as an invitation to and for the latter to partake of.” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Om Regarding the OM, the Concise Encyclopedia on Merriam-Webster.com states: “In Hinduism and other Indian religions, a sacred syllable considered the greatest of all mantras. The syllable om is composed of the three sounds a-u-m (in the Sanskrit language, the vowels a and u join to become o), which represent three important triads: earth, atmosphere, and heaven; the major Hindu gods, Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva; and the sacred Vedic scriptures, Rig, Yajur, and Sama (see Vedic religion). Thus om mystically embodies the essence of the universe. It is uttered at the beginning and end of Hindu prayers, chants, and meditation and is also freely used in Buddhist and Jain rituals. http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/om Those who know a little about the OM know that it is a sound that is commonly used in meditation in order to alter one’s state of consciousness, to reach enlightenment. This is not biblical. It is pagan and an abomination in the sight of God. Jesus did not come so we could practice paganism. He came to set us free FROM sin, and that includes the sin of spiritual adultery against God. Roma Downey’s psychic connection: A book by the famed TV psychic John Edwards. Includes a free meditation CD by Roma Downey, producer of the “Son of God” movie. Why would a Christian partner in a book by a psychic? It’s one thing to eat with sinners and prostitutes. It’s another thing to partner with them in their work. How much more evidence do people need? It’s stacking up and I’m sure there will be more. Let’s not forget what Jesus said: Matthew 7:18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Seriously, folks, if you, as a Christian can endorse this movie, then why can’t I go back into business as a psychic? Not that I want to, because I know the truth about these things, but if you’re going to endorse new age teachings, don’t claim to be a Christian. That’s hypocrisy. To understand what’s wrong with the “Son of God” movie, it helps to understand the purpose, mission, and intent of Lightworkers, since the movie was made by Lightworkers Media. The crux of it is in this statement from the Lightworkers.orgwebsite (link at bottom of article): “As Lightworkers, we are creating a vision more suited to humanities evolving divine nature.” What that means is they believe humans are actually God and that we as humans are in the process of becoming aware of that. When they refer to “divine spirit,” they mean the collective consciousness, which, according to their teachings, is the whole of humanity as God. This is what is meant by the term cosmic humanism, a belief system also known as the new age, or theosophy, because they believe that humanity is the cosmic Christ. This is a teaching that stems from hermetic magick. The intent of the Lightworkers is “to facilitate an awakening for all humanity.” What they want us to awaken to – this is where the problem lies, because it is a philosophy of…lies. They speak of “co-creating,” which means creating “with God.” They speak of working with guides and “higher selves,” and they regularly unite with Gaia. These are entities from the realm of familiar spirits, i.e., demons.

  • And the Hamitic Hypothesis
    religions Article Ancient Egyptians in Black and White: ‘Exodus: Gods and Kings’ and the Hamitic Hypothesis Justin Michael Reed Department of Biblical Studies, Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary, Louisville, KY 40205, USA; [email protected] Abstract: In this essay, I consider how the racial politics of Ridley Scott’s whitewashing of ancient Egypt in Exodus: Gods and Kings intersects with the Hamitic Hypothesis, a racial theory that asserts Black people’s inherent inferiority to other races and that civilization is the unique possession of the White race. First, I outline the historical development of the Hamitic Hypothesis. Then, I highlight instances in which some of the most respected White intellectuals from the late-seventeenth through the mid-twentieth century deploy the hypothesis in assertions that the ancient Egyptians were a race of dark-skinned Caucasians. By focusing on this detail, I demonstrate that prominent White scholars’ arguments in favor of their racial kinship with ancient Egyptians were frequently burdened with the insecure admission that these ancient Egyptian Caucasians sometimes resembled Negroes in certain respects—most frequently noted being skin color. In the concluding section of this essay, I use Scott’s film to point out that the success of the Hamitic Hypothesis in its racial discourse has transformed a racial perception of the ancient Egyptian from a dark-skinned Caucasian into a White person with appearance akin to Northern European White people. Keywords: Ham; Hamite; Egyptian; Caucasian; race; Genesis 9; Ridley Scott; Charles Copher; Samuel George Morton; James Henry Breasted Citation: Reed, Justin Michael. 2021. Ancient Egyptians in Black and White: ‘Exodus: Gods and Kings’ and Religions the Hamitic Hypothesis.

  • Mark Burnett Named President of MGM Television, Digital Group
    Mark Burnett Named President of MGM Television, Digital Group 12.14.2015 Mark Burnett-executive producer of such hit shows as NBC's The Voice, CBS' Survivor and ABC's Shark Tank-has been named president of MGM Television and Digital Group, the company said Monday. He'll start his new job early next year and has a five-year contract. Burnett's appointment comes as part of an overall acquisition of United Artists Media Group, an entity that's jointly held by Hearst, Burnett and his wife, Roma Downey. Some 15 months ago, MGM took a 55% stake in the production company owned by Hearst, Burnett and Downey, and at that time revived the United Artists banner with Burnett serving as CEO. Downey will remain president of the faith and family unit, LightWorkers Media. Burnett and Downey together have produced such TV miniseries as History's The Bible and NBC's follow-up, The Bible AD. To acquire United Artists, MGM bought the remaining 45 percent stake in the company. Burnett and Downey will exchange their joint 23 percent interest in UAMG for 1.34 million shares of MGM stock, valued at $90 per share. Hearst will receive $113.5 million for its 22 percent interest in UAMG. Hearst, Burnett, Downey and MGM will separately go ahead with a planned over-the-top channel, reports The Hollywood Reporter. Downey will serve as chief content officer of that operation, reports Variety. Roma Khanna, who had headed the division, is departing. Burnett, who's used to being an independent producer in charge of his own company, will report directly to Gary Barber, chairman and CEO of MGM.
