Why Are Charismatics So Weird? Toilet Teleportation!
This is the latest installment on my “Why Are Charismatics So Weird?” series. Sid Roth had a guest on his program who claims he can translate - not languages - but translate from one geographical location to the next, as in a “Beam me up, Scotty” kind-of-a-way. I'll play the clips and give a theological evaluation.
Transcript
Hello ladies and gentlemen, my name is Justin Peters. I hope that you and your family are doing well today
I want to thank you so much for joining me for this podcast This is the latest installment on my series entitled.
Why are charismatics so weird now I want to show you some clips from a from an episode of the
Sid Roth program entitled It's supernatural and we're gonna go back a little ways. This is that back to 2011 so Over a little bit over a decade ago
But Sid Roth is talking to a guest the particular guest he has on this show and his name is
Bruce Allen Bruce Allen claims to be able to Translate and not translate a language.
No Be physically translated from one location to another
Can A man walk through a door and find himself in another part of the world my guest was taught the secrets of Supernatural travel and how you can do this too next on this edition of its supernatural
Now When I first saw that I thought this looks like the Twilight Show those of you old enough to remember that show it very has very much of a
Twilight Show aura to it, but Notice that Sid Roth sets this up He's gonna introduce his guests who can translate go from one spot to the next sometimes all the way around the world or at least halfway around the world and You can do it, too
I'm Bruce Allen here who has been commissioned by God to teach you about what the
Bible refers to as Translation what is translation
Bruce I said translation has a number of nuances to the meaning but As far as the
Christian is concerned it could speak of being caught away in the spirit Into the realm of heaven where we understand
God to be and then it's also speaks of a transportation a geographic shift from one location to another supernaturally for instance example of the first one let's say you're driving a car and it takes
X number of hours to get to a place and you get there shorter where time is literally
Compressed give me an example. That's how that's happened in your life I grew up in a little town outside of Seattle called
Edmonds, Washington right on the beach and From Edmonds, Washington to Spokane Washington is about five and a half hour drive on a good day
If you're really pressing four and a half that and there's no traffic for that because you're going over mountain passes and the
Lord had been challenging me about whether an individual could be translated by faith
And so when I finally came to the conclusion, this is the word of the Lord. I said, yes, sir I believe so and I'm ready for my first lesson
So I prayed over the car that morning with my friend and we began to drive from Edmonds to Spokane And I remember every turn in the road every exit
We stopped for lunch as we normally do and we did that trip in less than two hours Less than two hours and how long should have taken five and a half hours five and a half hours now
That's my kind of transportation Pretty impressive go from Edmonds, Washington to Spokane, Washington In just a couple hours a trip.
That's normally five five and a half hours. That's that's pretty impressive, but it's It's nothing compared to this as far as understanding and revelation of how this is
Doable and how it operates as well as experiential in seeing these things take place.
Tell me about Richard from Kenya. I Have a friend named Joe. He's also from Kenya and I had heard a story about a gentleman named
Richard who had had an experience of geographic translocation or transportation And so I asked
Joe I said is this true? He said oh, I know this Richard He's my friend. And this is the story
Richard one day was told by God He said I want you to go to another country. He said
I have something I want you to do there and this man in his Excitement and zeal packed his suitcase went to the airport and when he got to the airport
He said his suitcase down and he said now what do I do Lord? Because I have no money and I have no passport
The Lord said go into the men's room go into the third stall on your left and he did that and he said now
What Lord he said worship me So this man
Richard lifted his hands to heaven and began to worship the Lord and after a few minutes of time The Lord said, okay now pick up your suitcase and go and when he walked out of that men's room
He was in the airport in Paris Just out of curiosity. Do you know how he got back?
No, I never did ask as a matter of fact What did you hear that? He had no passport
He had no money and he goes into the restroom and he walks again.
That's my way to travel So God told this guy to go into the men's room
Walk into a bathroom and come out in France Really honestly, honestly folks
This is lunacy This is absolute lunacy But every single guest that Sid Roth has on his program the whole premise of the show is to tell you that whatever his guest
Experiences you can experience too. You can do the same things, too
You don't feel like getting on an airplane if you've got an international trip plan, hey, no worries just walk into the men's room or Women's room or I guess nowadays whatever you particularly feel like that day
Walk into the bathroom. Just go into a public bathroom walk in and walk out in a completely different country
Whatever country you want to be in Yeah seems reasonable And how do you do this you say
I mean, I don't know how to do that Every time I walk into a bathroom, I just come out of the same bathroom in the same place.

Now. I want to show you this clip and he makes a very interesting Scriptural reference and we'll talk about it now you
Literally received a commission from God and a mantle to teach on Transportation tell me about that when
I first had that first experience I sat down for about six months because I was chewing on that and Studying the
Bible and how this could be and I finally said Lord. Why are you teaching me? Why are you telling me this?
He said I've called you to be a forerunner To teach my people at the end of the age how to do this by faith because it will be necessary we'll get back to that in a little while, but you teach on these subjects of transportation at churches and Entire churches are having these tell me the most people that have
Participated as you've been teaching on this at one congregation and what happened? this was a large home meeting in a home in Singapore and we had 85 people there and after we taught on this
I was told by the the pastors that had invited us that 85 of those people which was the all of them including the children had an experience where they were caught up into the third heaven the realm of God and had experiences that Changed their lives drastically
Ah Caught up into the third heaven Does that ring a bell with you? If it does there's good reason for that because that is a reference to 2nd
Corinthians chapter 12 Verses 1 through 4. So let's read this.
Shall we? Paul writes it is necessary to boast though. It is not profitable
But I will go on to visions and revelations of the Lord. These are true visions and true revelations by the way
Paul continues. I know a man in Christ who 14 years ago whether in the body
I do not know or out of the body. I do not know God knows Such a man was called up to the third heaven and I know how such a man whether in the body or apart from the body
I do not know God knows was called up into paradise and heard inexpressible words which a man is not permitted to speak of Whom was the
Apostle Paul speaking here this man who was called up into the third heaven He was speaking of himself
He was the man who was called up into the third heaven and you may be wondering
Why does he refer to himself in the third person? Why doesn't he use the first person like we would normally do?
The reason he referred to himself in the third person is because that is how humbled he was by what he had experienced
Paul had been caught up to the third heaven and that is heaven heaven basically the the first heaven
The atmosphere the air that we breathe the second heaven stars and space Planets and all that and then the third heaven is the abode of God is heaven heaven with a capital
H proper heaven Paul had been called up To the third heaven and he says that this happened
He said I don't even know if I was in my body or out of the body I do not know God knows But he said he heard words that are inexpressible that man is not permitted to speak.
He is so humbled by what he'd Experienced that he would not even refer to himself in the first person.
He referred to himself in the third person You see friends Paul did not even want to talk about this in the first place this rapturous this
Magnanimous privilege that he had been given to be caught up into The abode of God and he didn't even want to talk about it
But his apostolic authority was being questioned by some false Apostles back in Corinth and trying to turn the church of Corinth against him and it had gone on for so long and you kind of get the sense that Paul had just he had just about had enough and he
Paraphrasing here is like You question my apostolic authority you question whether or not
I'm an apostle you question whether or not I love you I know a man
I Know a man Who was caught up into the third heaven?
He was referring to himself and notice too What do we know about what
Paul saw or heard in heaven? We have no idea what he saw we have no idea what he heard
Because he said he heard words that are inexpressible that man is not permitted to speak dear friends think about that This is the
Apostle Paul. This is the man who wrote at least 13 books in the
New Testament if he was not allowed to tell us what he saw and heard in heaven
Don't believe anybody else when they say oh, I've been to heaven. Let me tell you what
I saw Let me tell you what I heard in All these people it seems like about half of the guests
Maybe more that Sid Roth has on his program all claimed to have been to heaven and they can't wait to tell you about Everything they saw everything they heard while they were in heaven
Cat Kerr, Jesse Duplantis, I mean, I mean there's this on and on and on there's so many of the hundreds of these people
It's kind of ironic sometimes I heard a so I saw one program of Sid Roth And he one time he said he said my guests
Provoke me to such jealousy because they've all been to heaven and I haven't been to heaven And I can't remember which episode that was.
I wish I could I could find it pull it up Play the clip, but he said my guest just provoked me to jealousy because all my guests have been to heaven and I haven't been and I'm like Take a clue
Sid Take a clue. I mean so you're you're selling a product to people
To teach them how to go to heaven how to be translated from one place to another Be caught up in third.
You're selling a DVD set to teach people how to do it Taking their money giving them this
DVD set to teach them how to do it and yet it hasn't happened to you dude
Take a clue but dear friends Anytime somebody says that they've been to heaven and they want to tell you what they saw what they heard while they were in heaven
Don't you believe it? The Apostle Paul was not allowed to tell us what he saw and heard in heaven.
Paul didn't go on a speaking tour Telling everybody regaling everybody with what he saw and heard in heaven
No, he didn't make a career out of what he saw and heard in heaven. He didn't even want to talk about it in the first place
Contrast that level of humility With all these other folks And they can't wait to tell you about what they saw what they heard in heaven how
Jesus taught me the warriors dance in heaven I went to heaven and there was a talking horse in heaven and and I sat in Jesus's lap and Jesus showed me the throne
Room. Oh, oh, yeah another guy. I eavesdropped on conversations between God the
Father and God the Son in the throne or eavesdrops. I mean just lunacy And it hasn't even happened to Sid Roth and yet he'll sell you their books.
He'll sell you their videos or DVDs For twenty five thirty five dollars. He's all too happy to sell you this garbage
It has never even happened to him Charlatan he's a huckster
Don't ever believe it. There's only three men in the New Testament who were allowed a glimpse into heaven
Stephen Right Acts chapter 7 right before he was stoned Then John the
Apostle John Who wrote the book of Revelation by far the most detailed account we have of heaven given to us
By the Apostle John, but that's inspired authoritative scripture And then the only other one is
Paul And he wasn't allowed to tell us what he saw and heard in heaven Nobody in the
Bible made a career out of going to heaven. Nobody in the Bible made a single red cent off of their
Vision or trip to heaven none of the three But all the guests on Sid Roth.
Oh, yeah, they do Jesse Duplantis lives on a 35 ,000 square foot parsonage
He's made a ton of money off his trip to heaven. Don't you believe it? Why are charismatics so weird?
Yeah, they're weird. They're also heretical Most of them not all but most of them heretical and again, this is not the fringe of the charismatic movement
What you see on Sid Roth program. That's not the fringe again. Dr. Michael Brown is one of his good close personal friends
It's been friends with him for almost 40 years So this is not the fringe. This is the mainstream of the charismatic movement
All right, dear ones Thank you for joining me until our next time together May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ the love of God and the fellowship of his
