Is it possible to take a lying, murderous demon and cinematically rehabilitate him into a likable rogue who elicits sympathy instead of loathing? Ask Disney. They’ve done it with their new Disney+ miniseries “Loki.” Before explaining the manipulative metamorphosis of this Luciferian demon from hell, consider first the mythological facts about the Nordic god Loki. His parents were Fire-Giants of the Viking spiritual universe. He was friends with Thor, eldest son of the supreme Nordic god Odin. Thor is theatricalized as the hammer-wielding Avenger of the Marvel Universe. Loki was historically stylized as a handsome jokester, gregarious, and mischievous shape-shifting god. Exactly the kind of anti-hero to bring big bucks to the Disney money machine.

I watched the entire first episode of this series. It is cleverly produced, mixing retro cartoon graphics with real life melodrama. Typical Marvel stuff. Loki, Tom Hiddleston reprising the role, squares off against TVA (Time Variance Authority) executive Mobius M. Mobius (Owen Wilson). Mobius represents the “keepers of time” that supposedly control the flow of a universal reality. The acting is minimal. The special effects are what matters. Mobius acts as a stoic bureaucrat. Loki gets the best one-liners. “I am a god,” Loki constantly declares. (It turns out he was also airplane hijacker D. B. Cooper.) “I am the god of mischief,” he adds specifically. All he wants to do is reclaim his throne, and if that requires innocent bloodshed or deceptive lying, so be it.

Marvel is an amoral universe. Consequently, the completely diabolical can be commonsensible, even reasonable. What if Loki is a hideous demon devoid of moral decency, he’s hip and he’s charming. He’s a victim of Thor’s rejection and his mother’s misunderstanding. So sad. Shed a tear for Loki who only wants the power that is rightfully his. By the way, remember that Frigga his adoptive mother is a very real Jezebel demon in the pantheon of evil; thus, it is disingenuous to inject human relational issues into the machinations of a demonic cabal. It is a tragic sign of where culture is when a disgusting demon is the star of the show!

For many years and in countless spiritual battles I’ve stared down the demon Loki in hundreds of demonized people. I know this demon well, and he’s no benign trickster. He ravages those he possesses and is one of the most sinister evil spirits in Satan’s arsenal. He’s also one of the most prevalent demons attacking humanity. He often inhabits the bloodlines of those with Scandinavian and German descent. Just one viewing of him on Disney, without proper curse breaking preparation and bloodline cleansing, can lead to spiritual disaster. Even demonic possession. At the end of the first episode, Mobius says to Loki, “I can’t offer you salvation, but I can offer you something better.” Episode two will supposedly tell viewers what that is. But you can be certain it isn’t eternal life through Jesus and freedom from the Loki demon.

After a few years of lesser interest, concern about UFO sightings is back again. Culture has always been captivated by ideas of aliens with movies like “Close Encounters” (1977), “E.T.” (1982), “Roswell” (1994), and “Contact” (1997). Since the 50s, sightings of UFOs and aliens have swirled around places such as Roswell, New Mexico, and Area 51 in Nevada. In the 90s I appeared on Oprah’s talk show and debated author and UFO aficionado Whitely Strieber to debate his book “Communion,” about alien communication. Strieber claims he was abducted by aliens and later formed communion groups of people to share their experiences of being taken aboard spacecraft. They claimed that aliens performed surgical experiments on them and molested them sexually. As I speak, we are days away from U. S. intelligence agencies presenting to Congress an unclassified report on what the government and military knows about UFOs, now referred to as Unexplained Aerial Phenomena (UAPs).

In 1997 I released a 215-page book explaining my view of UFOs. Unfortunately, that book is out of print. But here’s what I said then, and still believe. First let’s break down the basic kinds of UFO phenomena: (1) Sighting that result from atmospheric conditions or untraceable lights in the sky. These are natural occurrences. (2) Flying objects which can be explained as birds or planes.  (3) Intrusive, experimental spacecraft of our own government or hostile nations, including a new generations of drones which represent serious national security issues. (4) Paranormal spiritual beings, demons, who can shapeshift from invisible forces into visible material manifestations and thus defy the laws of thermodynamics, physics, and gravity.

As an exorcist, I am concerned about #4. Those who claim to have been abducted have a certain consistency in their stories involving terrifying experiences of mind control and sexual violation. The appearance of these beings ranges from reptilians to so-called “greys” (big heads, large eyes, naked), Draconians, and Nordics who look like ancient Vikings.

The biblical conclusion is clear. The Fall of Eden was cosmological. All the universe is tainted by sin and rebellion as stated in Romans 8:21-22. Christ came as man only to redeem creatures on Earth, no other planets. If there were life out there, it would be incredibly corrupt, mired in evil, and without hope of redemption. And those aren’t the kinds of creatures you’d want to meet on a lonely road on a starry night without having Jesus as your Lord and Savior.

The 3rd installment of “The Conjuring” movie series releases next week in theaters. It is entitled “The Devil Made Me Do It.” This film is part of what’s known as the Conjuring Universe, an official franchise with a logo. The first two films have spun off other movies about the Conjuring entities, including the “Annabelle” series and “The Nun.” Total income for the franchise is almost $2 billion! The current film, as with the previous two, is based on paranormal investigations conducted by Ed and Lorraine Warren in the late 20^th century. More on them in a moment.

Let me first address the issue of Christians seeing these films as entertainment. NO! The Conjuring Universe fosters fear and terror contrary to 2 Timothy 1:7. In these films there is no vanquishing of the demons by authentic exorcisms through the power of Jesus Christ. The story lines are a mixture of fact and mostly fiction, interwoven with a spiritualist, non-Christian view of the supernatural. This franchise has duped many millions into a zeitgeist of terror regarding demons.  The Conjuring counterattack to demonic evil smacks of witchcraft – fighting fire with fire.

Back to the Warrens, the driving force behind the Conjuring films. Ed Warren passed away in 2006 and Lorraine died in 2019. Ed grew up in a haunted house and saw ghosts as a child. He claimed to be a demonologist and exorcist, but not the Christian kind. He believed that spirits were all around in a vibrational field and that his wife Lorraine could see and hear them clairvoyantly. That is biblical witchcraft. After Ed died, Lorraine communicated with him beyond the grave. That is defined in Scripture as necromancy, a capital crime in ancient Israel. Both claimed to be good Catholics, but they violated many biblical injunctions against all forms of divination. Their approach was spiritualism sprinkled with a biblical template of good and evil. Clever deception.

I knew Lorraine Warren. Before she died, a production company wanted me to do a reality TV series with her. I would be the exorcist, and she would be the paranormal investigator. That would certainly be an odd couple. Pre-show interviews of our ideas about demons and demonic possession were conducted. When it was over, the producer came to me and said that there was no way Lorraine and I could work together. Our views on demons and the supernatural were too far apart. This conclusion came from a Hollywood producer!  We parted ways. I went on to film the TV series “The Real Exorcist” and Lorraine went on to lend her paranormal views about ghosts and demons to the Conjuring  films. Lorraine died not long after. She deliberately or unwittingly served Satan all her life – and never even reaped the full economic benefit of it. That’s the kind of cruel joke the devil plays. In the words of the new Conjuring byline, the devil made her do it. Sadly, Ed and Lorraine Warren will pay the price for all eternity. You will too if you allow yourself to be duped by the biblical contradictions of “The Conjuring.”

Jimmy Page, founder-guitarist, mastermind and musical inspiration of the 70’s super-band Led Zeppelin, recently appeared at an Oxford University Union forum. (Oxford is one of the world’s most respected educational institutions.)  Page is no academic. He’s simply one of the most accomplished guitarists of all time. I watched his entire speech plus Q & A. It was a trip down rock memory lane, and I guess there was some value in his discourse as a rock legend. His song “Stairway to Heaven” is the most popular, most played rock song of all time. But it was Page’s remarks about the Golden Dawn cult that caught my attention.

When a student asked Page about his interest in the Golden Dawn, Page replied, “I was very interested in eastern and western mysticism. I spent time reading and researching when I was younger. Some very eminent characters were in the Golden Dawn, and I found it very interesting to see the history of those who had been in it. And this esoteric movement . . . the mystical and magical was very beautiful.”

Really? In my book “Larson’s Book of World Religions” you can read about the Golden Dawn. The Dawn is demonic, and Page’s comments were disingenuous. The Golden Dawn was founded by famed Satanist Aleister Crowley, a man so evil he tattooed 666 on his forehead and called himself “the Beast.” He eventually renamed himself Baphomet. He was expelled from Italy due to charges of infant sacrifice. Crowley coined the saying which has become the motto of Satanists today: “Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law.”

Page wasn’t alone adoring Crowley. The Beatles on Sergeant Pepper’s quoted Crowley and had his picture included in that album. Ozzy Osbourne wrote and dedicated a song to Crowley. Jimmy Page revered Crowley so much that he eventually purchased Crowley’s Scottish haunted house. Crowley’s stated aim of the Dawn was to destroy Christianity. Sadly, followers of Crowley are still active in various satanic cults. Jimmy Page needs to turn to Jesus Christ and repent of his embrace of Crowley and the Golden Dawn. If he doesn’t, his Stairway to Heaven will be the highway to hell.

Everyone who schedules an encounter with me, both virtual and in-person, must fill out an intake form giving me some idea what issues need to be addressed. We ask whether the individual seeking deliverance has been involved in New Age practices or psychic phenomena which may have opened the door to demons of divination. Often, demons won’t leave until these things have been renounced. One of the forms of demonic involvement most frequently mentioned is Edgar Cayce and the non-profit organization he founded in 1931, the Association for Research and Enlightenment, ARE for short.

You may have read books about him such as “The Sleeping Prophet,” “Many Mansions,” and “There is a River.” Cayce was a Baptist Sunday School teacher who became interested in spiritualism. He resisted a warning by famous evangelist D. L. Moody that he was consorting with demons. This rebellion led Cayce deeper and darker into witchcraft, believing that he was channeling his higher self. Cayce laid down, went into a trance, and a voice spoke forth opining on many subjects. These included reincarnation (He said was true.), cancer cures (He said alleviated by eating three almonds a day.), and smoking (Cayce declared not unhealthy.). He diagnosed various disease and cures. ARE has a huge library of over 14,000 Cayce “readings” which catalogue his claims of health and healing,

As a child he was visited by an angel-woman with wings, likely a demonic angel of light, who offered to answer his prayers. He saw auras, heard voices of the dead, pursued astrology, and validated the lost civilizations of Atlantis and Lemuria. Today he’s regarded as a foremost founder of the movement we now call the New Age. Those who want to know more about Edgar Cayce should consult the detailed section on him that I included in my book “Larson’s Book of World Religions.” More to the point of why I’m bringing up this subject. A recent published report alleges that an ARE sponsored summer camp in Virginia has been the scene of rape and pedophilia. Eight women have filed lawsuits claiming they were sexually assaulted at this camp when they were children! One lawsuit asserts that, “ARE spiritual teachings set the stage for a silent epidemic of sexual assault and violence against young children and women.” Another lawsuit says that the Cayce people organized a “goddess night” during which female campers ran naked through a field while male campers watched. We’ll see how these lawsuits progress, but one thing is certain. If you’ve dabbled in the teachings of Edgar Cayce, you may have picked up demons. Throw out his books, repent of following his biblically forbidden teachings, and contact us immediately for an encounter. You may need an exorcism from demons of Jezebel, witchcraft, and sexual abuse.

It’s only May and the release date isn’t until late September – this time in theaters only, no HBO Max or Netflix. The trailer for the second “Venom” film is out there now promoting its theme: “Let There Be Carnage.” That alone is a tip-off as to the demonic intentions of this movie. For those not familiar with the Marvel Comic Universe, a little background. These are the people who brought you the glorification of Thor and Loki as movie characters. In the supernatural world these beings are real demons in the Nordic pantheon. I confront these evil spirits daily. In this next installment of “Venom” we can expect an orgy of blood, violence and the satanic supernatural. The first Venom film released in 2018 earned $865 million worldwide, and this latest diabolical dirge will probably do better. I want to give parents a heads-up and also issue a warning to Marvel fanatics. The coming barrage of fear and sadistic jokes about to be unleashed by Venom/Carnage is spiritually lethal!

If you missed the first film, it is about mutant lifeforms, in this case a multi-fanged serpent creature. This Leviathan-like viper wants to take over human bodies, oxygen-breathing hosts, which are needed to survive on planet Earth. The “hero,” a guy named Eddie Brock, is accidentally taken over by the Venom symbiote. Other extraterrestrial symbiotes, demons, possess other bodies from Malaysia to San Francisco. Eventually Venom claims he wants to help protect Earth from his possessing kind. Get the point? The menacing, evil serpent really has noble motives. That’s the message of satanism, voodoo, and black magic. Doing evil to accomplish good. The message of Eden’s venomous snake.

“Venom 2” isn’t a film that Christians should view for entertainment. Spare me any allegorical assumptions about Earth being rescued from evil by noble characters like Brock as a Christ-figure. The Venom films, and the Marvel comic/movie universe, are devoid of God’s transcendency and any moral code rooted in absolute truth. Venom induces fear and terror, sprinkled with in-house, sadistic humor. MCU, the Marvel Comic Universe, is a portal to possession, real demonic possession, and indoctrination in a demonic MCU, a Maniacal Christless Universe, a place with no existential ethics based on objectively reality. The demons I cast out every day aren’t make-believe symbiotes. They are real demons looking for bodies to inhabit and destroy (John 8:44). They’re no joke, and their ferociousness excels any imagery put on film, even the coming carnage of “Venom.”

Here we go again. Another mass shooting. This time on Mother’s Day. Six people are dead in Colorado Springs, Colorado which was eclipsed by the recent toll of 10 who were killed March 22 in Boulder, Colorado. You may predict that I’m going to blame the devil for what happened. You are right. In John chapter eight Jesus said Satan is a murderer. He was in the beginning and always has been. In my ministry as an exorcist I have encountered many crimes of bloodshed which happened in the extended family of the person I’m ministering to. Some of these deeds of bloodshed, committed by living individuals or recent ancestors, are known by the one receiving ministry. The identity of others is sometimes revealed to us by the bloodline demons.

But this much is certain. No crime of killing is an isolated act. There may be specific reasons why a certain crime occurred, but it is often linked to a chain of evil going back hundred and even thousands of years. In most instances we never know where that link is because the killer commits suicide, as in the most recent Colorado case. When the murderer is captured, they are incarcerated so it’s not possible to determine the bloodline link by an exorcism in prison. Since the law doesn’t take into account the influence of demons there’s no way to document my proposition. But the circumstantial evidence is overwhelming in my exorcism caseload.

There is another way to know that a capital crime is of the devil. They are especially horrific and defy explanation. In this most recent example, the victims were shot at a Mother’s Day celebration – an unthinkable act of evil. All the victims were related. It is suspected the motive was linked to the killing of the shooter’s ex-girlfriend. Only the children present were spared because of their hysterical crying. The immensity of this evil defies comprehensible explanation.

In my career as an exorcist, I have cast out hundreds, perhaps thousands of demons from people planning to commit a crime. In one case, a man had been a victim of incest by his father. As a result, he became enraged. During the man’s exorcism, I cast out the demon of Murder,
which was there because of his hate toward his dad. Afterwards he asked me to follow him to his car. He opened the trunk and pulled out an axe. He told me, “I came here today to seek deliverance from the demons which were tormenting me. If I hadn’t gotten rid of my demons, I was going to leave here and go to my father and kill him with this axe.” The answer to stopping more crimes like those in Colorado is Jesus and setting free those souls who are tormented by thoughts of murder. You can help by becoming an exorcist and enrolling in our School of Exorcism. Learn howe to set people free from the compulsions to kill, so there are no more massacres on Mother’s Day — or any day.  

“Money can’t buy you love.” The Beatles knew it in 1964. Bill and Melinda Gates have discovered it in 2021. The couple, married 27 years, are splitting. They’re also going to somehow split their nearly $150 billion fortune. Bill Gates was once the world’s richest person but now plays second fiddle to Amazon’s Jeff Bezos. Apparently, there’s no pre-nuptial agreement and they’ve promised to leave each of their three children ONLY $10 million each. Their philanthropy is a $50 billion foundation, the World’s biggest. That’s a lot of divorce lawyers’ legal fees.

Anyone could see this coming. Gates has been acting strangely for the last couple of years as he became the world’s climate change emperor. Yes, Gates and his billions have done some good for the world’s poor, but they still managed to live in a 66,000 sq. ft., $125 million mansion. And that’s just one of five mega-mega homes. This erstwhile ecowarrior has been busy telling the rest of the world how to live carbon free, yet he has a fleet of more than a half dozen private aircraft at his disposal—plus a collection of helicopters. He has suggested that the western world might have to give up eating beef, while he went on a buying spree to become the largest private landholder of agricultural land in the world.

Still not convinced that Bill needs deliverance.  Consider a special arrangement that Bill made when he married Melinda. Every year he would be allowed to vacation at the beach with an ex-girlfriend. Oddly, Melinda agreed to the arrangement. (I guess the rich really are different.) Wait, there’s more. Melinda was raised and educated as a Catholic. Bill consented to raise their children that way; however, Gates defines his religion as trying to “reduce the inequity in the world. That’s kind of a religious belief.” If that sounds a wacky, try this Gates’ quote: “It makes sense to believe in God, but exactly what decisions in your life you make differently because of it, I don’t know.” Bill, ever heard of the Ten Commandments? It’s a belief system that specifically defines moral decisions.

Last year during the height of the COVID pandemic, Gates mused that the Catholic religion might have to be outlawed altogether until every congregant could be certified to have received the vaccine! Sounds to me like a man who needs deliverance. In Luke 12:15 Jesus said, “One’s life does not consist in the abundance of the things He possesses.” My message to Bill Gates is this: Your spiritual beliefs need a system upgrade, and you can download it now from John 3:16. Just agree to the terms and click on “accept” Jesus as Lord and Savior!

For two thousand years Christians have wondered, “How will the whole earth be controlled by the Antichrist and receive the Mark of the Beast?” The online giant Amazon.com now gives us a glimpse. Several years ago, Jeff Bezos (no friend of Christian values), the founder and president of Amazon.com, bought the grocery chain Whole Foods. This was his first venture into “brick and mortar” retailing. Amazon has pioneered many innovations to internet commerce. Now they are allowing shoppers at Whole Foods the opportunity to buy groceries with a process that is chillingly similar to the Mark of the Beast. It’s called the Amazon One palm scanner. No cash, no credit card needed. Just pass your hand over a biometric device to pay for your purchase. So simple. So potentially sinister. Amazon says if the market test of Amazon One is successful they will roll out the idea everywhere. Those concerned about privacy should pay attention. Those who know Jesus should pay VERY CLOSE attention.

For those not familiar with Bible prophecy here is what Revelation 13:16-18 says: “He [the Beast, the Antichrist] causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.”

The key issue here is the control of access to goods and services, especially food. I’m not saying that Amazon is in league with the devil or realizes how close this is to what the Bible foretells. Nevertheless, they have taken a significant step on the slippery slope to the Great Tribulation. Right now, as I speak, systems are being put in place which are precursors of the End Times — social engineering which prepares the body politic to accept invasive control over private behavior. We’ve seen this happen with COVID and now we see it with commerce. More than ever, everyone listening to me needs to get saved, get delivered, and prepare to meet Jesus. The Mark of the Beast may arrive sooner than you think!

A husband and father in Brazil, Rico Ledesma, age 41, has undergone massive amounts of plastic surgery and dental implants to transform his body into a replica of an Orc, a demon from J. R. R. Tolkien’s “Lord of the Rings.” (Orcs were fictional humanoid monsters, such as a goblin.)

To accomplish his paranormal appearance, Ledesma covered 85% of his body in hideous tattoos, split his tongue, chopped off part of his ears, surgically placed eight subdermal piercings under his skin, disfigured his nasal septum, tattooed his eyeballs black, and spent over $500 to implant two giant tusks in his lower jaw. Other parts of his body were scarified with a hot iron. No serious Christian could doubt that Rico Ledesma is demonized.

His wife, who calls herself Krishna Insomnia, adoringly embraces Ledesma’s appearance. In fact, she has done most of the tattooing herself. Her own face and body are covered in dark black inking. His young daughter adores her father and sadly has likely inherited his demons. In one photo with clues to his intentions, he wears a hat with the words “Orc Infernal” and a T-shirt with an upside-down cross and hands displaying the horned image of Satan worship. Now, he has signed a contact with a major Hollywood film producer to make a movie.

I’m no fan of Tolkien, though I realize that he was a friend of C. S. Lewis and a professing Christian of Catholic persuasion. But frankly I’m troubled by his use of occult imagery in “The Hobbit” and “The Lord of the Rings.” I wonder if his upbringing in South Africa and his parents’ lack of understanding witchcraft in that part of the world set him up for demonization. (There is an interesting story of an African servant taking him, as a child, overnight to her village.) No one  can question Tolkien’s literary brilliance. But if he’d had an understanding of spiritual warfare, he might not have lavished such significance on characters like Gollum, who is obviously demonic. Nor would he have written fantasies about “good” fairies. Sadly, many video games are replete with demonic characters taken from Tolkien. “World of Warcraft,” for example, has appropriated Orc demons who drink blood from beings known as Legion.

Beware the characters of video games. Have nothing to do with Orc beings. Understand that fairies are demons in disguise. Take a more careful look at “Lord of the Rings.” And pray for the soul of Rico Ledesma who, without Christian conversion and deliverance, has a lifetime of spiritual torment waiting him, more awful than all the pain of his inking, piercings, and disfigurations.
