Global Revival or Global Deception?—10 Critical Warnings From the Titanic to the Church
by Warren B. Smith (NewAgeToAmazingGrace.com)
Who doesn’t want true revival—one filled with godly sorrow, heartfelt repentance, and powerfully met with God’s forgiveness, mercy, and amazing grace? But the word true is key. The revival must not be unduly influenced by our spiritual Adversary for his own deceptive purposes. True revival must be genuinely God-given and inspired by our One True God and His One True Holy Spirit.
Before its sinking, the RMS Titanic was thought to be “invincible” and “unsinkable” and was viewed with widespread confidence and positive regard. People felt they would be safe on that big and mighty ship. What could possibly go wrong? Today, revival is seen in much the same way. It brings up similar notions of invincibility, “unsinkability,” and positive regard. People feel safe when they are part of an extensive and mighty revival. What could possibly go wrong? And it is in this light that the Titanic can serve as an example to the church today. This booklet contains ten critical warnings as the church longs for revival yet moves into dangerous waters.

The Chris Lawson SRN bookstore offers crucial research documentation addressing pressing Church issues. The resources found here will help equip you to discern between truth and error in today's confusing spiritual landscape.
The insightful documentation in our bookstore is further confirmed by three other resources we are working on: SpiritJournaling.com, DangersOfYoga.com, and my main research site, SpiritualResearchNetwork.org. These websites are designed to help educate and empower you as you address dangerous teachings and practices in the Church.
The SpiritJournaling.com website serves a vital purpose as it exposes and warns about the dangers of occult/spiritistic practices in the world and the Church. This cautionary resource is designed to keep you aware and vigilant against these dangerous spiritual threats. One of the massive dangers coming against the Christian Church today is the onslaught of unbiblical, telepathic, and sensory-oriented "messages from Jesus." Sarah Young's Jesus Calling Series is just one of these of spiritistic deceptions.
The 45 million plus readers of Sarah Young's Jesus Calling devotional series have no idea that there are 50 Occult training principles embedded throughout the Jesus Calling Series. Brenna E. Scott's eight-year book research project reveals these principles that are in Sarah Young's books. At SpiritJournaling.com, Brenna's book can be read online for FREE. Hard copies can be obtained from our store: Christian Journaling or Psychic Channeling?: A Critical Comparison of the Jesus Calling Series with Occult Training Literature.
Some of the more glaring examples of dangerous occult influences entering the Church are "Christianized" versions of psychics, telepathy, clairaudience, clairsentience, and even necromancy (communicating with the dead). The first chapter of The Titanic and Today's Church—A Tale of Two Shipwrecks gives an example of a variation of necromancy that Pastor Steve Berger and his wife Sarah have been promoting for many years. See Dead Men Talking: Necromancy In Today's Church.
The products in our bookstore are designed to inspire and motivate believers to stand firm in the Gospel's truth and uphold the Word of God. This empowerment will help you stay strong in your Christian faith, unwavering in the face of spiritual challenges.
REMEMBERING RAY YUNGEN—AN ASTOUNDING RESEARCHER, A LIKE-MINDED FRIEND!
Below here is a Remembrance Statement about our good friend Ray Yungen. Ray went to be with the Lord in 2016. Ray's Publisher (Lighthouse Trails) wrote this statement about Ray, and I wholeheartedly agree. Some of Ray's excellent materials can be found in our bookstore here if you are interested. See also our SRN managed YouTube account for Ray.
"Ray was a man who loved life, loved people, and loved God. His tenderhearted manner touched all who came to know him. In addition to his researching and writing, he enjoyed spending time over a good cup of coffee with friends, listening to music, and being in nature. Ray had a zeal for truth and was passionate in his desire to help others find and know truth as well. He loved God’s Word and used it as a measuring rod in all he did and believed. Ray’s research and writing ministry impacted tens of thousands of people throughout the world, and he will be sorely missed by many. He has left an indelible imprint on the Christian church that will be remembered for years to come. Ray’s writings and lectures will continue to be distributed through his publisher, Lighthouse Trails Publishing."
