The Glory of God on Cape Cod  Deception

The Red Letters Alone Say It All To The Wise & Discerning Heart

 

"And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove (expose & rebuke) them. ... For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret."   (Ephesians 5:11,12)

 

So many have reported having a "question down on the inside" about the movement called The Glory of God on Cape Cod. Others have attended their meetings only to come away and describe, ".. a flat feeling.  Something wasn't right but I just couldn't put my finger on it."  While many others have questioned, "Why is it they come together to pray so often and God just isn't answering their prayers?  Where's the Glory they promise will fall on Cape Cod through prayer and unity?"  Read on with purpose, Believer in Jesus, and you will find your answer.

 

The Glory of God on Cape Cod is promoting the writings of Rhonda Hughey on their website.  Go to www.thegloryofgodoncapecod.com and click on ‘Articles.’  Click on ‘Other Relevant Articles.’  There they strongly encourage all who desire to be involved with their movement to become involved with the teachings of Miss Hughey.  She is the Founder and President of Prayer By Design Inc.  She serves on the senior leadership team at the Int’l House of Prayer at Kansas City.  She also spent a number of years being mentored by George Otis, Jr., traveling with him extensively and documenting his experiences with “Spiritual Mapping,” “Spiritual Warfare,” and she does not renounce his teachings on “Moral Government Theology.”  

 

Why is it important that you know this?  Because as a Believer in Jesus Christ, you need to know that George Otis, Jr. does not believe in the Lordship or the Blood of Jesus Christ and Miss Hughey is an advocate of Mr. Otis.  She uses the principles of “prayer” learned from Mr. Otis and The Glory of God on Cape Cod is promoting hers and Mr. Otis’ unbiblical teaching on prayer, unity and universal transformation.  THESE TEACHINGS DENY THE BLOOD AND THE LORDSHIP OF JESUS CHRIST.

 

The following is a quote from Rhonda Hughey.  “I also work closely with George Otis, Jr. as an International Transformation partner.  My burden is to connect the Prayer and Worship movement with the Transformation movement because Transformation is all about Presence.  I also work closely with Youth With A Mission to take the message of intimacy, prayer and transformation and connect it to the nations.”  In this quote Miss Hughey acknowledges her desire to take the unbiblical message of “Transformation” and use it to poison the minds of the Christian youth of the world.  The “Transformation” movement promotes “God” on a universal scale – not Jesus.  This is the problem with George Otis, Jr. and his “Moral Government Theology.”  This is the problem with Rhonda Hughey.  THIS IS THE PROBLEM WITH THE GLORY OF GOD ON CAPE COD MOVEMENT.  IT'S A COUNTERFEIT TO THE REAL MOVING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.  THE HOLY SPIRIT ALWAYS EXALTS JESUS. (John 16:14)

    

Let’s look at the basic teaching of “Moral Government Theology.”  It teaches God does not fulfill some of His own prophecies.  God changes His mind and is not immutable.  God does not have sovereign control over earthly events.  God does not know His own future actions.  God does not know ahead of time the free decisions of human beings.  God’s foreknowledge is limited in the area of man’s free decisions.  Many of the things God predicted never came true.”  (Quoted from the Apologetics Index)  Is this what you believe as a Christian?  If not, you may want to examine your involvement with The Glory of God on Cape Cod .  You may find more information about George Otis, Jr. and his group called “The Sentinel Group” at their website, www.sentinelgroup.org.  There you will notice a very obvious absence of a statement of faith.  The Sentinel Group doesn’t want you to know what they really believe – especially about their rejection of the need for individuals to accept the Blood of Jesus.   Rhonda Hughey openly supports Otis and his Sentinel Group.  The Glory of God on Cape Cod openly supports Rhonda Hughey

 

 When visiting The Glory of God on Cape Cod website you will notice they are a nameless, faceless website.  No one is willing to take responsibility for the false doctrines being deceitfully promoted.  They use links to the websites of the Pastors they are misleading to "identify" themselves.  This deceitfully shifts all responsibility for their error to these sincere,  yet sincerely wrong  Pastors under the guise of "Well, I just don't want to take all the glory."  Bunk!

 

Where is the true leadership? Who is the individual who founded and heads this group?  Who do the Pastors who support this group answer to there?    What is the founder's  true vocation in life and what qualifies that one to exercise authority over God's Pastors on Cape Cod?  Truth is, the founder is a layperson.  Nowhere in Scripture do God's appointed ministry leaders ever submit to laypersons in ministry related matters. (see Acts 15:1-41; Ephesians 4:11-15)  God's New Testament church government is ignored by TGGCC.  They have set up one of their own.

 

Who authorizes what goes onto and out of the website?  Why do they regularly send out anonymous, disrespectful  e-mails challenging, even mocking the true Pastors and spiritual leaders on Cape Cod who oppose them Biblically?  Why do they refuse to put their name or face on their website and e-mails?  

 

Where is the accountability?  Who handles the money?   Why do they support Hughey and Otis?  Why do they claim to  believe only in "...the Holy, Catholic church" under "What We Believe" on their supposedly Evangelical / Charismatic /  Pentecostal, "unity" based  website?  WHAT DO THEY REALLY BELIEVE?  Like "The Global Day of Prayer" group, they are really part of the Jesus rejecting Transformation Movement and would rather you did not know it.  Like The Sentinel Group they, too, obviously have something to hide.  Specifically, "We don't really believe in Jesus' redemptive work like you do. But cheer up - we kinda' believe in Him. We just don't go along with the Virgin Birth, the shed Blood, man's sinful nature and a few other minor things like that. But that shouldn't keep us from fellowshipping and praying together should it?" 

 

 The Bible says, "  Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?  (2 Cor. 6:14)

Let’s look at “Spiritual Mapping.”  This is a term coined by George Otis, Jr. in 1991.  He refers to it as a tool for intelligent prayer aimed at opening spiritually blind eyes to the Gospel.  He does not specify which “Gospel” he’s referring to but as you read on further in this article, you will discover that he does not refer to the Gospel of Jesus Christ in Whom he does not believe.  Rhonda Hughey backs Otis in his beliefs.  The Glory of God on Cape Cod backs Rhonda Hughey. 

 

Otis developed a 28-stage scale to determine the spiritual temperature of a community.  Once a community is properly mapped, a corps of intercessors begins to petition “God” for a visitation.  In order for “God” to answer these prayers a representative from the World Christian Movement must have a “commitment” in the area.  The representative must own a burial plot, a home, have a job, etc., in order for God to work in that area.  This, of course, creates a problem of elitism.  This states, in essence, that God will respond to the intercessory prayers of a community only if there is a member of the WCM present in that community.  This means the WCM sees themselves and not Jesus as the Savior of mankind.  This is unbiblical, prideful and preposterous.  “Spiritual Mapping” is done to gather data on the beliefs of people so the intercessors will “know” how to pray.  This immediately eliminates the need for the Holy Spirit.  Once the mapping is complete and a WCM representative is in place, the “leaders” can then pray in “unity.”

 

Celebration of Unity.  George Otis, Jr. promoted the “Celebration of Unity” service held on September 30, 1990.  Four thousand five hundred Protestants gathered in Washington State at the Kitsap Pavilion for a “Celebration of Unity” service.  Despite their disclaimers, it was very much an Ecumenical service, with a great diversity of groups, including those who preach “a different Gospel.” (Galatians 1:8,9)  For example, Rev. Richard Kroll, one of the speakers at the service, was the clergyman of the Suquamish Community Congregational United Church of Christ.  Their statement of purpose says they …welcome and accept all people into worship, participation in Church life, full membership and leadership…may include any sexual orientation.  In the vision of unity, wholeness, integrity, compassion and justice, as a community of God’s people, we covenant to be open and affirming [including]…lesbian and gay relationships, extended families, blended families and nuclear families.”  During this “Celebration of Unity” George Otis, Jr. signed a “Covenant of Continuance” promising to join with the leaders in a long-term approach to this type of spiritual change in their area.  Rhonda Hughey desires to spread these teachings of Otis around the world, particularly to the Christian youth of the world.  The Glory of God on Cape Cod strongly promotes the teachings of Rhonda Hughey. 

 

The Unbiblical Teachings of George Otis, Jr.

 

George Otis, Jr. does not believe in the core message of Christianity.  Keep in mind, Rhonda Hughey is a staunch supporter of Otis.  The Glory of God on Cape Cod is a staunch supporter of Rhonda Hughey.  Otis denies the atoning death of Jesus Christ to pay the wages for our sins, thereby making it possible for us to be saved from the wrath of God over the wicked.  In lectures given in 1981 to Youth With A Mission in Tacoma , WA on “Moral Gov’t Theology,” he made the following statements in this regard: 

 

“God has put things inside of us.  He made us in many ways like Himself.  His truth is deep within us and it will take our own basic understanding of what God is like and what His principles are like... And then we’ll go into the Word of God and really search the Scriptures. We’re going to come up with concepts that are different than what are normally taught today in theological circles.  According to this definition of forgiveness, that is the relaxation of a legitimate claim, then it would be impossible for God to have, as one hymn put it, ‘paid the debt and forgave me all my sins.’”  (1981: Lecture 3)

 

Christ has not redeemed us by giving His life as a ransom for our sins in order that He might release us … for God never kept man captive in sin … the truth is Christ paid no man’s debt. (1981: Lecture 4)

 

“If we accept the premise that Jesus literally purchased, that He literally purchased our salvation with His Blood … and He paid the Father … then this approach, first of all portrays God the Father as being vindictive and blood-thirsty and totally incompatible with Biblical forgiveness.  It also presents another grave difficulty.  If Jesus literally paid for our sins with His Blood, and a paid debt is no longer a debt, and He died for the sins of the whole world, then we can only come to one conclusion and the theological word for that is ‘Universalism’ – which means that everybody will be saved.  (1981: Lecture 4)

 

With these statements George Otis, Jr. refutes clear Biblical pronouncements on the redeeming of sinners through the redemptive death of Jesus Christ.  Rhonda Hughey agrees with Otis.  The Glory of God on Cape Cod openly encourages their followers to comply with the teachings of Hughey.  Contrary to what Otis teaches, Hughey condones and The Glory of God on Cape Cod promotes, the Bible says, “In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace.” (Ephesians 1:17)  “For you were bought with a price…” (1Corinthians 6:20 )  “…knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers, but with the precious Blood of Christ, as of a Lamb without blemish and without spot.” (1Peter 1:18 ,19) 

 

In his 1991 book, “The Last of the Giants: Lifting the Veil on Islam and the End Time,” George Otis, Jr., continues to deny the notion of the sinful nature of man.  “Because all human peoples belong to God initially by right of Fatherhood, Satan has no automatic control over them.  Unless individuals give themselves over to the rulership of Satan willingly, they will remain under the tender influence of the Holy Spirit.” This is an outright denial of the depraved and sinful nature of man due to the Fall of Adam.  The Bible teaches that in our unregenerate state we are “…without hope and without God in the world.” (Ephesians 2:12)  The Bible also states we are all “…by nature the children of wrath…” (Ephesians 2:3)  But according to Otis we have no sinful nature and the Apostle Paul is obviously confused.  Rhonda Hughey agrees with Otis, not Scripture.  The Glory of God on Cape Cod promotes Rhonda Hughey. 

 

Small wonder that Otis sees no need for Christ’s redemptive work on the Cross to forgive our sins and to make provision for a new nature to all lost sinners who turn to Him for salvation. (John 3:16) According to Otis all that is necessary to liberate societies from the oppressive influence of Satan and evil spirits is his brand of “spiritual warfare.”  Through “spiritual warfare” on behalf of the people of the world they will turn to God in great numbers.  But, again, according to Otis the inherent sinful nature of people does not need to be addressed through preaching or prayer because THEY DO NOT HAVE ONE.  Otis teaches that territorial demonic strongholds are the only thing that keeps “sinless” people from God.  Remove these territorial strongholds and society will embrace Christianity.  Rhonda Hughey, in her ignorance of Scripture, agrees.  The Glory of God on Cape Cod strongly promotes Hughey.

 

“The Marginalizing of Jesus Christ.”  It is very conspicuous that Otis marginalizes Jesus by referring only to “God” in general.  Keep in mind, Rhonda Hughey strongly promotes the teachings of Otis.  The Glory of God on Cape Cod strongly promotes Rhonda Hughey.  Otis attributes no spiritual attributes of Believers as being related to “Christ in us.” (Colossians 1:27)  He constantly shies away from Jesus.  In his list of spiritual aids for protection he only briefly refers to the Lordship of Jesus, obviously only to appease those who criticize him for his “Moral Government Theology.”  He sees no need for the Cross or the power of the Blood.  Reader beware.  Jesus Christ and His redemptive work on the Cross is the central message of the Bible.  There is no true knowledge of God without Jesus Christ; there is no salvation and forgiveness of sin without Him; there is no victory over Satan and his hoards without Him; and there is no sanctification or genuine commitment to the cause of Evangelism without Him.  “For in Him alone dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily.” (Colossians 2:9) 

 

“Extra Biblical Revelations.”  Otis teaches and Rhonda Hughey agrees that God raises up special Prophets and Apostles, revealing His secrets only to them.  In terms of these revelations they will guide His Church and take the lead in establishing His Kingdom on Earth.  These leaders must be followed; otherwise, it is seen as rejecting God’s will.  However, the Bible teaches that the whole counsel of God has already been revealed in the Bible.  There is no further revelation necessary.  The Apostle Paul taught us that all who teach and preach otherwise are accursed. (Galatians 1:8,9)

 

 “Ecumenical Unification of Churches.”  Otis teaches and Rhonda Hughey agrees that Ecumenical meetings of all Christian Churches are a pre-condition for the mobilization of spiritual strength and the reclaiming of cities and regions for “God.” Without this type of Ecumenical unity there can be no victory in the struggle against evil.  However, the Bible teaches that the true Church of Jesus Christ is already spiritually united.  It does not require Ecumenical actions to demonstrate its unity.  Ecumenical groups almost always invariably sacrifice the teachings of God’s Word, the Foundational Doctrines of Christ and are therefore severe compromisers who appear outwardly to be united but are not united at all.  They refer to sin as "...our differences which must be set aside for the  sake of unity."

 

Strife and elitism are also commonly present behind the scenes of these Ecumenical groups and meetings.  The Glory of God on Cape Cod movement is no exception.  Some Christian Pastors openly express having been deceitfully rejected by them. One Pastor told this author he was asked to leave their prayer service because he was "...not one of them."  Another of their leaders, a Pastor and a chaplain at a local Christian elementary school, actually wrote to this author expressing his absolute hatred and distain for the author's "evil" character having heard of his positions on the Word of God and truth telling.  The author was instructed to "stay away" from the chaplain and encouraged to repent for his "evil " nature.  No small wonder TGGCC sees absolutely no results.  Faith works by love, not religious hatred, jealousy and disdain. (Galatians 5:6)

 

The author of this article also had a July 2007 Sunday morning Hyannis Holiday Inn service interrupted by two other self-proclaimed "leaders" from the The Glory of God on Cape Cod Movement.  These two self-appointed "Pastors" began shouting untruths about the author, passing out falsified documents and pleading with his congregants to leave the service immediately - while the author was preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ.  Some attendees actually fled in fear and confusion, never to return. Is this unity? Is this a setting aside of differences?

 

These TGGCC "leaders" then proceeded to the Barnstable Police Dept. where they lodged the same falsified complaints.  There they were told their behavior in that service was not only illegal but immoral and jealousy based.  They were told they would be arrested if they disturbed the peace of Barnstable County in that manner again.  The author was asked by the BPD if he would like to file charges and declined.  When the author lodged a grievance with TGGCC thru the only available means - their nameless, faceless website -  he was ignored.  Talk about "unity."  They can consider themselves forgiven by this Minister of the true Gospel of love.  What happens between them and the God of Justice Whom he serves now  is another story altogether.  (Matthew 5:22-26; Romans 12:19)

 

“Position During Intercessory Prayer.”  In his “spiritual mapping” lessons, Otis says the following about intercessory prayer.  “Intercession also involves the act of standing between the object of prayer and the spiritual forces.  In the case of the devil it is to deflect his attacks.”  This, too, is a dangerous, unbiblical position since it suggests that the power emanates from the person who is praying not from Jesus.  True Believers in Jesus Christ indeed have authority over Satan and demon powers. (James 4:7; Luke 10:19,20)  However, Otis and his appointed leaders regard themselves as specially anointed persons with supreme authority over the forces of darkness in and of themselves.  They obviously do not realize the risks they are taking in confronting evil from this unbiblical position. (Acts 19:13-16)  It’s no small wonder Satan does not obey them and their efforts are unfruitful.

 

“The Coming of the Kingdom.”  The theology of George Otis, Jr. also constitutes another version of “Kingdom Now” theology – also referred to as “Dominion Theology” and “Reconstructionism.”  It teaches that the Kingdom of God must manifest now – before the coming of the King – and for that to happen, the kingdom of Satan must be stripped of its power and strongholds.  Great revivals will then follow, accompanied by signs and wonders, and whole societies will be radically transformed to function as great Christian communities.  Great men of God will appear on the scene to lead this “transformation process” to its goal of peace and world unity.  They will practice the dominion granted to Adam and prepare the world for the coming of the King.  No provision is made for the judgments of the coming Great Tribulation Period. 

 

However, according to true Biblical Eschatology, the whole world is already headed for the hour of darkness during the coming Day of the Lord.  False christs and false prophets will prepare the way for the appearing of the universal false prophet and the anti-christ.  Their coming will be according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders.  (2Thessalonians 2:9)  The Bible teaches that in the last days perilous times will come, not peace and world “unity.” (2Timothy 3:1-5)  The Bible teaches the last days will be a period of great apostasy when many people will be deceived.  Sin and wickedness will proliferate and even the love of many Christians will wax cold.  This situation will only change AFTER the coming of King Jesus and not BEFORE, when all people on Earth will serve Him and rejoice in His Kingdom of Righteousness. (Revelation 11:15)  George Otis, Jr. and his supporters flatly deny these Biblical teachings.  Keep in mind, Rhonda Hughey has a “burden” to become more involved with Otis.  Rhonda Hughey is being strongly promoted by The Glory of God on Cape Cod Movement.

 

CONCLUSION:  The unbiblical theology taught by George Otis, Jr. and under-girded by the efforts of Rhonda Hughey and The Glory of God on Cape Cod are widely accepted and welcomed in “Kingdom Now” circles rendering them very popular spiritual leaders amongst those who are ignorant of the Foundational Doctrines of Christ.  However, there is also growing antagonism against these false teachers because their overblown claims of total transformation which allegedly occurred in a number of cities are not able to be substantiated by facts. 

 

 In other words, the claims of city-wide transformation are proving to be untrue.  It is clear that these individuals are deceiving both Evangelical and Pentecostal Christians into believing false doctrines and exaggerated statements about alleged revivals in various parts of the world.  Their unbiblical methods and teachings do not work and only lead to the undermining and destruction of the faith of well-meaning people.  It reflects badly on local Pastors who are already working under difficult circumstances as they are obviously unable to “pull down” these enemy strongholds and bring change. 

 

“The Pulling Down of Spiritual Strongholds” was equally as popular and ineffective in the 1980’s as it is today. It’s recycled spiritual trash. Scores of efforts by groups  leasing aircraft, riding elevators to the top of high rises, climbing to mountaintops, attempting to oust the devil from countries such as Russia, Turkey and China or from cities such as Jerusalem, Boston, Washington, London and Cape Town have met with nothing but defeat and public humiliation.

 

  “Prayer-Walks” where Believers walk through their community, shaking their fists at the demonic strongholds, commanding them to come down, yet never bothering to witness to the lost bring further shame and humiliation.  Those who do these things stand to lose their credibility.   Many Pastors and professional people already have.  Many have become angry with God as a result of the lack of effectiveness of these false teachings when God is not guilty.  

 

The Bible teaches that Satan has already been defeated by Jesus.  “And having spoiled principalities and powers, He made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.” (Colossians 2:15)  “For as much then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, He (Jesus) also Himself likewise took part of the same; that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death, that is the devil, and deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.” (Hebrews 2:14,15)  “For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.” (1John 3:8) 

 

It is not necessary for Believers to redo what Christ has already done.  Christ has already destroyed Satan and evil spirits.  He did not teach us to do “spiritual warfare” with Satan and his cohorts.  He taught us to bind Satan in whatever areas God has led us to work in. (Matthew 18:18)  Once we have  bound him we are to simply & confidently go about the business of fulfilling the Great Commission by preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ, praying for the sick and casting out unclean spirits whenever necessary on an individual basis. (Mark 16:15-20)  

 

The Lord Jesus promises to work with us with signs following.  Jesus didn’t pull down strongholds or do spiritual warfare while He was in the Earth.  Neither did the Apostle Paul or Peter or any of the other Disciples.  Why are you doing it?  You have no Biblical precedent.  All Believers should believe in unity, yes, definitely.  However, unity should NEVER come at the expense of the Blood of Jesus, moral issues, our youth or sound Biblical doctrine.

 

Many are being misled by The Glory of God on Cape Cod Movement and other movements similar to it.  On the surface the worldwide “Transformation Movement” appears to be innocent enough, particularly because of its mantra of “unity.”  However, when examined more closely the teachings of George Otis, Jr. and Rhonda Hughey, more commonly known as “Universalism,” are always at the root.  They throw a little Scripture in there to appeal to Christians but upon investigation their use of Scripture is nothing more than bait.  They don’t believe in the need for individuals to accept Jesus or His Blood.  They believe that through Jesus all people will ultimately be saved - whether they accept Him or not!  That's why it's called "Universalism."  Click on that deceitful little blue word for more information.  This is what  TGGCC is doing by referring to the "Deity of Jesus" under point #3 of "What We Believe" on their deceptive website.  They're trying to fool you into believing they are a Christian organization when at their roots they simply are not.

 

Someone once asked the question, “How do you poison a really smart dog?”  Answer:  “Take some strong poison and wrap it in a really good piece of meat.  He’ll gobble it down every time and die.”  The poison of “Universalism” is being wrapped in the meat of God’s Word and  flavorfully seasoned thru the calculated use of Jesus' Name to get you to gobble it down without investigation and die.  This is what TGGCC has done on their website right here on Cape Cod.   Go online and study Rhonda Hughey and George Otis, Jr. for yourself.  Then ask yourself, "Why does TGGCC insist on endorsing these people?"  You already know the answer.  Will you gobble down their sumptuously  prepared false doctrine  and die or will you reject it for the truth and live?   

 

Have you ever noticed you cannot become Born Again anywhere on the TGGCC website?  There is no "Sinner's Prayer" to pray.  There is no place encouraging sinners to confess their sins and to ASK Jesus to become their Savior according to Romans 10:9,10.  Why?  Because they  foolishly believe that Jesus already IS everyone's  Savior - accept Him or not!  That's why they say under point #4 of  "What We Believe" on their website, "We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful people, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.'"   Sure they do.  And they believe that has already happened -- FOR  EVERYONE WHETHER THEY  ASK CHRIST TO BE THEIR SAVIOR OR NOT!  That's the little trick of Universalism. Is  this what you believe as a Pastor and as a Christian?

 

Someone else asked another question, “Do you know why deceived people don’t know they’re deceived?”  Answer:  “Because they’re deceived.”  If you’ve been deceived and misled by The Glory of God on Cape Cod and the teachings of Hughey, Otis and Universalism  simply repent and God will restore you.  Then walk away from the counterfeit.  The fact there is a counterfeit out there simply indicates that the real McCoy is out there, too. 

 

God’s Spirit is about to be poured out on Cape Cod but not through the teachings of Rhonda Hughey, George Otis, Jr. and those who prop them up such as The Glory of God on Cape Cod.  It will only come through the proper preaching and teaching of God’s precious Holy written Word.  It will come only when Jesus is properly preached and not Universalism.  Let’s get back to the proper preaching and teaching of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.  It’s the only thing Almighty God promised to confirm with signs, wonders & miracles. (Mk.16:15-20)

 

Anyone who wants to be a true spiritual warrior can get back on track by taking the following steps.  Preach and teach the Gospel and the Blood of Christ militantly. (Romans 1:16)  Stop being slothful and start showing up in Church militantly. (Hebrews 10:25)  Love and forgive militantly. (Mark 11:25 ; 1John 4:15 -18)  Pray militantly for political and spiritual leaders, laborers to the harvest field and the Nation of Israel. (1Timothy 2:1-6; Matthew 9:37-38; Psalm 122:6-9)  Enforce Satan’s defeat simply and militantly. (Matthew 12:29-30; Matthew 18:18; James 4:7)   Pay your tithes and offerings militantly.  Your Pastor can’t make it without them. (Malachi 3:8-11; Hebrews 7:8)  Repent militantly when you know you’ve done something wrong and are grieving the Spirit of God. (Proverbs 28:13; 1John 1:9) 

 

These are all signs of true spiritual warriors.  These are all signs of the Church Triumphant. Only a fool would ignore all of the above and still consider himself to be a spiritual warrior by “pulling down” demonic principalities and powers who have a right to be where they are until Jesus and His Angel come to lock them in the pit. (Revelation 20:1-15)

 

“The wise shall inherit glory: but shame shall be the promotion of fools.” (Proverbs 3:35)

 

Don't allow yourself to be deceived by those who use buzz words such as "unity" and "transformation" to disguise the fact that they see no need for individuals accepting the Blood of Jesus.  As Christians our fellowship is in the Blood and in the Blood alone.

 

The Message Bible says “…what do you think will happen if you turn on God’s Son, spit on the sacrifice that made you whole, and insult this most Gracious Spirit?  This is no light matter.  God has warned us that He will hold us to account and make us pay. He was quite explicit: ‘Vengeance is Mine, and I won’t overlook a thing,’ and, ‘God will judge His people.’  Nobody’s getting by with anything, believe me.” (Hebrews 10:29-31)

 

There’s only one thing “The Glory of God on Cape Cod” movement can do to be restored to a position of respect and trust amongst the Believers on Cape Cod and the Islands.  Produce a publication and a DVD openly and boldly renouncing the teachings of Rhonda Hughey, George Otis, Jr. and the unbiblical doctrines of “Transformation” and “Universalism.”  They must mail it to everyone on their mailing list and run the DVD repeatedly on local access television even as they did their misleading DVD.  They must remove every reference to Hughey, Otis and Universalism from their website, printed and video materials. 

 

They must apologize publicly for their deliberately misleading and deliberately confusing deception and begin immediately to deliberately promote the Lordship and the saving Blood of Jesus Christ – the only Savior of mankind.  They must do it in a straight forward manner, explaining that one must directly accept Jesus as their Savior according to Romans 10:9,10 &13.  They must explain the need to be Born Again according Jesus' explanation in John chapter three.  They must make it clearer than clear that all who reject Jesus' sacrifice will go to Hell, as Jesus taught in Matthew chapter twelve, not Heaven as the Universalists teach. 

 

They must also find a way to reimburse those of you who gave them money to promote their false doctrine.  Those of you who have had the blinders removed by reading this article must withstand them in every possible way, according to Luke 17:3,4 and Ephesians 5:11.  Talk to your Pastor if he's been involved with them.  Ask him to read this article.

 

Now you know what that knot in your gut is concerning TGGCC.  Now you know why you had all those questions.  Now you know why you never really were comfortable with TGGCC in spite of all the carnal hype.  It's the Holy Spirit giving you His red light about proceeding any further with them.  Don't run that light.  Satan's  semi-truck is coming the other way and headed right for you!

 

... if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. [10] For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." (Romans 10:9-10)
