how it happened
As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts
Isaiah 55:9
Isaiah 55:9
The Lord showed me that our enemy has been operating just outside our comprehension since the day we were born again, causing us to be spiritually disoriented without our knowledge.
Obviously, he knows the significance of faith in our salvation.
But he also knows something that we may have forgotten, mainly because he has been hiding it from us: that faith is equally significant regarding our spiritual oneness.
The righteous will live by faith
Faith is crucial because it is the means by which we have a relationship with God.
As it is written, 'For by grace you have been saved through faith' (Eph 2:8).
Faith is how we receive the benefits of what Jesus has done for us. It's our faith again that will unlock the door to the power found only in spiritual oneness, and Satan knows it.
For there the Lord commanded the blessing
Ps 133:3
It's because of this that he is desperately trying to prevent
you from taking back the faith he stole from you.

Jn 17:21
There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called in one hope of your calling;
you were called into the one Spirit of God.
Eph 4:4
By his deceptions, he has refocused our attention away from faith in what God has already done and onto the carnal church in his natural world. 'Fix that mountain,' he says, showing us the vast unity problems, as if the Body of Christ and the carnal church were one and the same.
We must not forget that the perfect Body of Christ only dwells within the physical church in the natural. The worldly imperfections, divisions, and doctrinal differences are not the Body of Christ; she simply finds herself encased
within this man-made 'disappointment'.
within this man-made 'disappointment'.
Satan cannot steal our God-given spiritual oneness power.
But what he can do, and has done, is enticing us into redirecting our focus onto his custom-built mountain of demons,
the divided global church in the natural.
But if we take our eyes off that mountain in the natural and put them back onto Christ and His one, holy, perfect Body, we see spiritually that we don't need to find our unity; we simply believe God's Word and walk as one in faith.
We all know perfectly well how faith works in the Kingdom of God: we won't see our second step until we have
faith enough to take our first.
Only then will our next steps become clear and manifest.
We don't need to doubt this;
the Holy Spirit longs to lead us in it - it's not something we have to figure out on our own. He is our Father, and we can be confident that if we have the faith and are willing,
He will lead us by the hand into this new land.
He's been preparing for this day;
He's been in it, so He knows the way.
The only thing we need to do is hold His hand very tightly.
From belief to unbelief, a drop at a time
The Lord has been showing me since 1975 that our enemy has skillfully 'drip-fed' us with tiny, camouflaged lies since
the very first day we were born again.
This may sound difficult to believe or even contemplate, but even the most experienced Christians know that we were all spiritual infants once, digesting the spiritual milk we were being fed.

As spiritual infants, we were enveloped by a subtle mist of lies, so fine and pervasive that it was indiscernible to us as newborn spirits. These lies seeped into every aspect of our lives, shaping our senses, experiences, emotions, and dreams,
even our subconscious.
Like tiny pixels forming a cohesive image, they created a deceptive backdrop, designed to convince us that
the Body of Christ has a need for unity.
We're trapped in a fabricated reality, designed to disarm us by eroding our confidence in who we truly are – the most powerful army ever assembled, the Body of God.
By deceiving us into doubting our identity, this insidious deception undermines our greatest strength.

Hebrews 13:8
Hebrews 13:8
We know Satan's strategy is not original; he's used the same tactics repeatedly. As we examine the 'backdrop' of division in the natural, listen closely, and you'll recognize his voice –
we've heard it many times in our own walk with God.
We know that influencing our beliefs is his business and expertise. However, we also recall that when we chose to ignore him and open ourselves to the unbelievable, forgetting what we thought we knew, the Holy Spirit was more than willing
to share more of Jesus with us.
In fact, it's His purpose, and He eagerly awaits our call.
He has amazing spiritual power and blessings beyond our comprehension, waiting for us to receive from Him in faith.
The only thing holding us back is the formidable size of the giant or mountain we're facing in the natural, which has prevented us from moving forward spiritually in faith.

Let's conduct a meticulous examination of this intentionally built satanic stronghold, this mountain, with unwavering dedication, mental clarity, and openness of heart.
Notice how Satan has utilized all our past negative experiences and observations related to local and global disunity,
etching them into our subconscious like
trophies, posters and signposts.
These reminders constantly reinforce the disappointing realities of church unity, creating a backdrop – the mountain, his Goliath.
Wherever we look, the vast unity problems are inescapable,
and we can see each other's responses to them.
We've become part of each other's backdrop,
much like the 'Emperor's New Clothes.'
Unwittingly, our actions and reactions propel his deception, perpetuating the illusion that global unity is required
yet impossible.
The enemy's strategy is to steal our faith, it's been his
successful strategy all along. If you examine this closely,
you'll see that it's a brilliant, strategic maneuver,
attacking the army of God from its blind side.
It's strikingly obvious once you see it.
Simply ask the Holy Spirit to reveal it to you.
Amazingly, he's brought the most powerful army ever
to relative disablement without direct confrontation,
simply by manipulating our beliefs.

Impossible,' we say. 'It's not realistic.'
How could we have been deceived on such a massive scale?
It's inconceivable, right?
We attribute it to human nature, free will, or just one of those things. '50,000+ denominations and all the other endless reasons for disunity' –it's just how things are.
But what if it's not?
What if it's a masterfully crafted plan by our enemy,
a grand deception that has us convinced of our own limitations?
Are we absolutely certain about this?
Leaders, would you bet billions of lost souls on it
while we strive so hard to reach just one precious life?
That's exactly what we will be doing if we dismiss this
without examination, without asking the Holy Spirit
to reveal deeper spiritual truths.
He's eager to show us more of the things of God,
as clearly stated in His Word, but we must ask.
Are we open – wide open – to considering the unbelievable?
Or are we closed off? If we're closed, the veil remains,
and our enemy can easily deflect our focus.
His demons can then continue to freely scale
and breach our undefended walls.
What's not immediately apparent from our individual perspective is that when we view ourselves as a unified team against external challenges, teamwork becomes the priority.
From this vantage point, disagreements and doctrinal differences become irrelevant in the grand scheme.
Instead, we see that every challenge comes with one purpose:
to divide our team. By adopting this perspective,
we gain clarity on the truth.

It’s nothing more than taking our eyes off his Goliath
and putting them back on our God.
We weren’t born again into a faction, and contrary
to what Satan tells us, we don’t have to choose one.
We are the whole and complete Body of Christ;
our denominations, ministries, and churches aren’t
more important than the Body itself.
If they are to some leaders, those leaders aren’t fit for leadership, and God will remove them.
Denominations are man-made—I’d say Satan-made--
and he births two new ones every day from sin.
I’ll show you this in a minute.
Yes, two new denominations start every day—it’s shocking and unbelievable. But as shocking as this is, the more shocking and unbelievable thing is that we’re not talking about it.

I've never heard this before, have you?
Have you ever heard any one of us address from the pulpit
the issue of two new Christian denominations forming every 24 hours, or discuss what we're doing to address it?
No, neither have I.
Why is that, do you wonder?
It's as if the proliferation of denominations is a dirty secret
we're hiding from our own consciousness, and
conveniently imagining the world hasn't noticed.
Let's remember now, the number of times we've heard from those pulpits that our testimonies are important,
I whole heartedly agree with you leaders.
Why isn't this obvious disgrace we're bringing upon Jesus
being dealt with as a matter of urgent importance?
It's simple, it wouldn't fit into Satan's backdrop,
another words, he's got us all transfixed on the size of the giant. Our spiritual paralysis won't allow us to believe there
is anything substantial we can do about it.
There we saw the giants, and we were like grasshoppers in our own sight.
Numbers 13:25-33
I pray you are hearing from the Holy Spirit and these scriptures are beginning to speak to you in a new way.
What is his defense now, what are you hearing from our enemy?
Does he suggest that global unity requires compromising
our faith or watering down our doctrine? .
Perhaps it implies partnering with churches with vastly different interpretations of scripture, ones that seem plain wrong to us.
Thoughts of unified worship under misguided leadership
might also come to mind.
But why should it, when there's only the truth?
Those who have received Christ are one in Christ and grace.
That's where we need to be focused.
And then there's everything else—law, denominations, traditions--and an endless list of other temptations,
all of which is nothing more than smoke and mirrors.
This is where we should not be focused.
Everything else changes and shifts, but we know the truth never changes, and we stand on that truth: Jesus.
We also know that nothing can stand against Him who lives in us. The size of the mountain is irrelevant; it's just lies built on more lies, demons trying to appear to us as giants.

Welcome back from the page 'Truth'
We know sin is at the root of all disunity in the Body of Christ, and our enemy can't force us to sin – we always have a choice. This means he can't compel us to accept his reasons for division or act on them; we must willingly choose and accept one.
Am I saying we're being deceived and tempted into choosing disunity over our natural state of oneness?
Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying.
We've been deceived into moving away from our spiritual starting point – the truth of our oneness in Spirit – and giving up the power that comes with it, at least in our belief.
This leads to our actions, reactions, and the outward
appearance of disunity that we and the world see.
No matter how hard we work towards unity in this state of unbelief, we have no chance of success, and Satan knows it.

As I said, did you know that two new Christian denominations are birthed from sin every 24 hours? Denominations, not churches or ministries. If we're serious about reaching the lost world with God's love, shouldn't we be wondering why this isn't being addressed in every born-again church?
There are plenty of Christians questioning how this is allowed
to happen –listen to Nicky's heart on the matter.
"How can we offer peace and love to a chaotic culture,
if we don't have it within our own ranks"?
Nicky Cruz.
This must be a problem for any army, yet it doesn't even get a mention in our new recruits' training programs, such as Alpha courses. Have you ever wondered why that is?
The key is not to get bogged down in the various reasons for division but to focus on the more important issue:
the oneness of Christ. That's the crucial point –
and that's exactly where Satan is focused.
But it seems we're more concerned with appearances,
than with addressing the underlying issues,
and I speak from church experiences.
Two new Christian denominations birthed from sin every 24 hours
34,000 denominations in 2000, by 2012 there are estimated 43,000. These figures have exploded since the year 1900 when there were 'only' 1,600 denominations, which tells us that in the 112 years since 1900 a total of 41,400 new Christian denominations have been formed. This equates to over 369 per year, more than one every day. But that's not all, it gets worse, see between 2000 and 2012 there were 9000 new breakaways, which equates to 750 per year or over two every day. That's two new denominations formed every day from 2000 to 2012. It is estimated there will be 55,000 denominations by the year 2025, so we can see clearly that the attacks of division on the army of God are intensifying, and this does not take into account the 'cracks' forming and already formed within todays denominations.
(All this information was taken from Wikipedia around 2015)
I am updating this now in Feb, 2025, I see no letup in the attacks on the Church.
Throughout this website I have referenced 40,000 denominations, which was approxamatly true when I began to write on this site. However according to Wikipedia we can now assume there are 55,000. Leaving you to do the math, that must now be far more than two new Christian denominations birthed from sin every day.
You see the point, that our enemy's attacks are intensifying, and what is our response to it?

When we look at the world today in light of this information,
it seems like the church has suffered a seriously damaging attack that hasn't been addressed or defended against – somehow slipping under our spiritual radar.
It's like a stealth attack on an undefended
wall from our blindside.
Do you see that?

Do you see that?
Unfortunately, deceptions happen to unsuspecting
Christian leaders all the time.
If larger churches truly cared about the Church of Christ, wouldn't they prioritize showing love and encouragement to the smaller ones, demonstrating the unity that comes from their shared oneness in Christ?
I've witnessed too many times established church leaderships identify a need in an area and decide to plant a new church, without considering the smaller local church already there.
Satan often whispers reasons against collaboration,
citing doctrinal, social, economic, or cultural differences. Ambitious leaders of the larger church may lend an ear to these concerns, and ultimately, nothing beneficial happens
for the oneness of Christ.
I wouldn't like to say it, but I've heard it from many disgruntled congregations that it seems the leaders of the larger church are more interested in their own 'kingdom building' than in
the unity of the Body of Christ.
It's not hard to see their reasoning: the smaller church only needed a little Holy Spirit-filled encouragement and support –
a helping hand on the battlefield. Instead of that, the enemy points out to them how the larger church without a thought,
is blindly and carelessly treading all over them.
Why have you come out to draw up for battle? I defy the armies of Isreal this day.
1 Sam 17
The giant is again mocking God and His people.
Satan is presenting a false perspective to the larger church leadership, highlighting the difficulties of partnering with another team while showcasing the benefits of planting their own
satellite church with their own leadership.
But that's our Goliath today, telling God's people they don't
have enough faith to trust in what God has already done:
Our today Goliath is shouting out clearly to us.
"Why have you come out for battle, you don't even believe in yourselves or God's Word, you are just cockroaches."
Goliath knows he has us transfixed on the perspective of his worldly size, and we have lost our faith to see past it.
This needs to be said: the leadership of the larger church decision was made with good intentions but orchestrated via the flesh by our enemy and not the will of the Holy Spirit,
as I imagine they beleived.
I'll tell you why.
Righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written:
The righteous will live by faith.
Rom 1:17
Walking in faith from first to last both in our salvation,
and our oneness.
At our conversion, we were redeemed and raised up together in Christ into the One Spirit. We must believe that, not in part,
but in full – that there is one Spirit and one body (Ephesians 2:6, 4:4).
So let's take those reasons for non colaboration with the other
church down to the brook.
Come, let's present them to God and see them
for what they really are.
In other words
Leaders, even if you're confident in your reasons and explanation for why you can't collaborate with those with different doctrine to yours, or receive the revelation I bring to you on this site, you won't be allowed to openly expose them because they're all just demons camouflaged as good reasons,
and they are all part of the stronghold in our thinking.
How does that make you feel?
Now's the time for leaders to decide whether God can,
or can't do all things.
Are you asking congregations to believe that God can do all things, except when His Church steps out in faith to prepare herself for her Groom and their wedding?
Are we really going to beleive, and put up with that?
Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him:
for the marriage of the lamb has come, and his wife hath

We're not individual droplets, soldiers, or brigades on our own crusade; we're part of the one army of God.
The encouragement and love shown in your church can be a powerful blessing to other churches. We want the world to see and understand that what unites us – Jesus – is far greater than what divides us – sin. I know we all agree on this.

It may seem easier to ignore the symptoms of division, but they're obvious to the world and contribute
to keeping it in darkness.
Ignoring this issue is a catastrophic military disaster.
It's also denial, and we know there's no healing in denial.
As representatives of the Truth, this should be
deeply uncomfortable for us.

Behind our backs, they call us hypocrites.

Welcome back from the page 'Goliath'
We can be sure that our enemy has all our individual personal measurements to all our weaknesses, even those we don't know we have, and he is a fly fisherman of a different caliber, and if we're the fish 'biting' today, he will find and offer us the perfect bespoke lure. He will keep offering them to us, until we do eventually choose one, any one 'reason' that takes our eyes away and back onto his mountain, the 'back drop', then we stay believing global unity is impossible.
BUT ONLY IF WE'RE BITING.

He is not bothered which lure, as long as we willingly swallow one, that is his only purpose and objective here, to undermine our faith in the power of our oneness, in any way, and at any cost. But it has to be with our consent, we have to choose from his colossal menu, for his strategy to work.
As I said, he can't make us sin, or choose a reason to believe it's impossible for the body of Christ to walk in her natural state of oneness, in this world. All he can do is keep offering us lures which are reasons from his colossal menu.
But if we KNOW we are one in Christ by grace in faith, we are unimpressed, and we will see that all his lures and reasons equate to exactly the same thing. In the spiritual realm we see that they all look the same.
It is of no value to us, knowing we are one in Christ, in the same way the religious know whatever it is they know (law). By our Father's grace we then clearly see that we have nothing to fear regarding this Goliath, it is he who is really afraid of us, as one.

It is of no value to us, knowing we are one in Christ, in the same way the religious know whatever it is they know (law). By our Father's grace we then clearly see that we have nothing to fear regarding this Goliath, it is he who is really afraid of us, as one.
Calligraphy by Timothy R Botts
Obviously, the truth of our oneness is irrelevant, if we don't believe it, and our 'reasons' for not believing it are all individual to us, our paths to this subconscious conclusion have all been unique to us.
"God knows the reasons for our disunity, and Jesus will sort it all out upon His return"
I've heard this from some of the mightiest soldiers in the army, but it is untrue, the bride will ready herself. Since when did grooms ready their brides?
Rev 19:7

Rev 19:7
Satan is not bothered which path we took (chose) to unbelief, all that matters to him is that we chose one and ended up here, believing that global unity is impossible.
No matter how much we love our God, our church and our brothers, if we don't know that we are one in Christ, we will be deceived from our blind side, we will eventually choose one from his inexhaustible menu that inevitably leads us down to base camp.
Or, if we are not wearing our unshakeable faith in our oneness, like a rubber wetsuit, then we wont stay 'dry' for long in an ocean of reasons for believing in our own division, we will eventually accept one. If we don't know we've been ambushed, how can we defend ourselves?

Welcome back from the page 'Ruthless'
How many times have we had this thought, 'God is in control, and He understands the reasons for our disunity, Jesus will sort it all out on His return, let's just focus on those all important ministries that God has called us to? Leaders we know Satan says this.
.
But when we settle for that, are we feeling the pain that Jesus must feel, to see His Church, His beloved bride tearing herself apart from the inside like a person 'possessed', while billions of souls are going to hell?
Is Jesus our Lord and God a bigamist, as Derek Prince asked, no, our Groom is coming for us together, His Bride as one. Where the last shall be first, and where our weakest and slowest are carried up front by our strongest and fastest, and our priceless maverick warriors have come home, along with all the prodigal sons who will come out from the caves, just as I have. We are going home together as one, and nothing can or is going to stop us.

But Jesus looked at them and said to them,
“With men this is impossible, but with God
all things are possible.” Matt 19:26

How can any of us preach that 'nothing is impossible for our God', when referring to our own church, leaders at the same time believe in our heart something very different regarding Jesus' Church, I'm sure your spirit is just as grieved as mine.
Welcome back from the page 'Battalions'
We can now tell our enemy that things have changed, and we will no longer be playing his game, or by his rules. We will not be concerned with what our enemy is showing us about the apparent size of this task, because we know our omnipresent Father has already been here in this day. So we know He has already provided in abundance everything the bride needs to rise up together in His Love.
There is literally NOTHING that can stop it happening. The truth is, it has already happened, we just need to get out of Father's way and watch. His bride has made herself ready. Rev 19:7 Past tense.
Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.
Rom 8:37
Rom 8:37
Let us remember now that we are not heading out to the battle here, we are returning home from the victory,
AS ONE IN CHRIST
Then the multitudes of previously reticent foot soldiers will see the difference, hear the Spirit and rise up, coming out from within the ranks of the battalions who's generals promote their colours, before their King, that harvest is ripe.
It won't take long for the congregations to vote with their feet, if they see their leaders reject 'walking in faith as one', because the Holy Spirit will reveal to them that this message is without doubt from the throne room of God.

Disciples seeking truth will recognise the true shepherds by their example, and the old rhetoric promoting their own organization will begin to smell like sour milk.
Love your neighbouring church, ministry and denomination as your own.
Let nothing be done through selfish ambition,
but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than itself.

As it is written: “What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived”— the things God has prepared for those who love him-- 1 Cor 2:9
faith always precedes proof
Before we saw the light' we had a lot of practical questions, like now, and just like the religious story of a man called Jesus did not look like the answer we wanted to hear. How could believing and trusting in Jesus possibly help us in any way to solve our huge life problems.
Our worldly questions we wanted answered before we wanted to commit and lay our lives down for this unseen Jesus. Looking back now, we remember our enemy's strategies.
In response to his endless whispers of doubt and fear, to every single one, the answer is always the same...

Romans 8:37
We are well equipped for this journey. We can testify that God would always show up when we would share the gospel with the lost in faith. So we know we can handle the negative responses of disapproving or suspicious leaders, because it wasn't always easy sharing the Good News with the lost. But we coped because we knew it was the truth, we knew who lives in us, and we know what is at stake.
We will approach the churches, ministries, and denominations around our own with the same resilient spirit, knowing the Holy Spirit is with us and about to do a miracle, and if we don't get the unity result we wanted, we pray about it, we pray for the other church. We react no differently then we do when sharing the good news.

Like as the lion and the young lion roaring on his prey, when a multitude of shepherds is called forth against him, he will not be afraid of their voice, nor abase himself for the noise of them: so shall the LORD of hosts come down to fight for mount Zion, and for the hill thereof.
Isa 31:4
Isa 31:4
We know where to look for our Father's truth, it's living, and it's always current for today, and it's loaded with every scripture we need, speaking deeper into a new perspective of our true oneness. I can testify first hand, that many, many Holy scriptures are about to open up for us, in a fresh, new, deeper way, regarding this word. Walking as one, in faith.
We know that after a revelation, there is always a 'new beginning', meaning that even though 'achieving unity' has always been fraught with difficulties and disappointments
in the past, we now have in front of us 'the new beginning'. Walking in faith as one, is not an improvement on the Church, it is the Bride readying herself for her Groom, it is our willingness to 'move'.
We won't be a nation held back by our past any more, we're on the move, and we're going home together, as ONE...

39 Now when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces; and they said,
“The Lord, He is God! The Lord, He is God!”
40 And Elijah said to them, “Seize the prophets of Baal! Do not let one of them escape” So they seized them; and Elijah brought them down to the Brook Kishon and executed them there.
