False Teacher – Wayne Bent

Travesser the Transgressor

Almost seven years ago we met a man claiming to be the Messiah. He went by the name of “Michael Travesser,” the assumed name of Wayne Bent, the same person that was in the news as the “leader of an apocalyptic cult” arrested in New Mexico on unspecified charges. There is talk of child molestation, which Bent denies, though he does admit to having slept with three of his followers’ wives, including his son’s, at the direction of God and the instigation of the women. (“The man said, ‘The woman whom You gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate’” Genesis 3:12 HNV – only these were not the women God gave to Wayne.)

While it is easy to dismiss such antics as those of a delusional sociopath, people who have tried talking to Wayne and his followers have found themselves unable to effectively argue against their delusion. In this string of correspondence, we show Wayne how he is wrong according to the Scriptures he used to justify his sins, while exposing his arrogant, wrongheaded manner for all to see.

On October 22, 2001, Paul sent this letter to “Michael Travesser”:

Greetings Michael,

Several weeks ago I met “Blessed Quietness” and “Obedient Servant” in a chat room discussing recent world events. BQ gave me your web address, and I in return gave her ours.

Since then I have red the website. There are many things said therein that are true, such as the coming of the Lord in the flesh (here and now) and the utter corruption of mankind’s religious works. There is also gross error.

I will point out some of the error found in “The Finished Work.” Despite what I have to say here, the tone and spirit of my letter is not one of railing, but of kind and gentle remonstrance. I would that you all would see the error of your ways and repent. I ask you, Michael, to print this letter. Surely you should have no fear of what I say. Only good can come of open communication, not in strife but in peaceable pursuit of truth and His righteousness.

#1. I begin by presenting the opposition of Scripture to the sign of your alleged coming as Messiah. If you read no further, this will establish for the record that what is happening amongst you people is deception. You can’t contradict the testimony of Scripture both in appearance and essence and be the perfect will of God expressed to man.

According to the testimony of what has happened amongst you, the two women with whom you copulated are the two witnesses spoken of in Scripture. You wrote of these women:

“In Revelation 11, we can read of the two witnesses and what they do. The two witnesses prophesy and give testimony for 3 1/2 years. They stand before the God of the whole earth as the two cherubim did in the Most Holy Place. They are also two olive trees. A reference to the two olive trees may be found also in Zech. 4.”

It is also said in Zechariah 4 that these two witnesses are referred to as the “SONS of oil.” And in Revelation 11 they are called PROPHETS, not prophetesses. We also see in Zechariah that Joshua and Zerrubabel were types of these two witnesses, and they are MEN. THE TWO WITNESSES ARE MEN.

Throughout the Scriptures, the Lord sends men out in the ministry, not women. Men are sent to testify of the word of God in all stations of ordained ministry (evangelists, pastors, teachers, apostles, PROPHETS), but not women. In Christ there is neither male nor female, this is of course true, but we speak of the Word of God and established order of things in the days of our flesh. That has not changed. In this alone there is reason to stop now and reconsider everything, but I will give you more.

#2. Michael, it is stated that you are Messiah, and often you speak with the capitalized form of pronoun. Yet you also ask that the people pray for you. Here is another example of confusion that comes of the deception you labor under. You make the following two statements:

“This was the work of the second coming of Messiah. I was told that men must believe in me, pray for me and support me with their prayers and supplications regarding the experience of Him that He was now leading me into….”

What, are we to pray for God while we believe in Him!? And your other statement:

“I AM their Deliverer and I AM the One who will lift them up. These souls do not seek to get anything, or to save themselves from anything, for they know all things come from Me. They trust only in Me and what I AM desiring for them.”

But we must pray for Him!? How can this be said of the One Who says, “…every beast of the forest is Mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills. I know all the fowls of the mountains: and the wild beasts of the field are Mine. If I were hungry I would not tell you; for the world is Mine and the fullness thereof” (Psalm 50:10-12)?

Only a deceived heart, pursuing its own lusts, would mistake what Michael says for God. Repent, Michael, and all you people. For goodness’ sake, repent.

#3. There is additional confusion in the assertion that a person must receive the consummation of your marriage (as described to these two women) by faith, yet all kinds of carnal reasons are given as to why it was done. As put in the paper:

“Why were there two witnesses? Firstly, it is written: ‘In the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.’ The two witnesses and Michael the Messiah established every word. One witness only would look too much like an earthly marriage. It could not sufficiently break into the mental patterns of earth and establish heavenly images. The people would merely think that Messiah was as they were. More than two witnesses would seem too much like a harem. It would seem as if there was no discriminating voice to guide the events. That would say to the mind that Michael would indiscriminately become intimate with whomever He desired instead of following a divinely inspired plan. Heaven has its order even when certain events are not in the earthly order. Two witnesses would also reflect the multi-membered bride of Christ. Finally, the Scriptures prophesy of the two witnesses who stand before the God (Messiah) of the whole earth. They receive His anointing and give that anointing to other lamps.”

Since when is God concerned about how He would be viewed by men? If this were the case why was Jesus born of a virgin? Why would He come appearing as an uneducated bastard pauper? Why would Noah build an ark in a dry country? Why would Isaiah walk around naked for 3 years?

Michael claims that you must simply believe God had two married women commit adultery with him as a sign of the Lord’s coming. Yet if you are to receive it by faith, why the need for all the carnal reasonings? God does not do things this way. Can you see Jesus trying to explain to everyone why He was born of a virgin? But man justifies himself.

Yours is a work of man. The greater guilt is upon you because you directly claim to be Christ. The Law of God states that those who take upon themselves His Name in vain will not be held guiltless. Despite what you consider yourselves to be, the Law has not been suspended on your behalf. In fact it remains on your behalf. Repent and be delivered from your destruction.

#4. The writings suggest that salvation is dependent on men’s abilities to see and believe Michael. This is the way of false religious works, which are based on man asserting his own righteousness, faith, and willpower. The structure depends on man, and if he fails, it fails. For example, Michael writes, “He also stated that if I failed, the people would fail with me, and if they would not believe in me, their own hope for salvation would be ended.”

This is not how things work with God; He does not fail. He upholds those whom He chooses. Things are not out of control with Messiah perched precariously on his own works and others on their own. God is not dependent on man. His own arm brought Him salvation. Jesus did not manifest or teach this spirit of pressure to perform – grasping and compelling others to feel desperately dependent on Him and themselves. There is a very different manifestation of spirit here. Is it too late for any there to hear?

#5. The central event that we are enjoined to receive by faith (planned adultery) is likened to Abraham offering up Isaac, something that “seemed quite unnatural and something which seemed against the commandments.”

There is a profound difference between the two situations. In Abraham’s case it is said that he was being tried. God did not have him violate any commandment because He stopped Abraham from killing Isaac. In fact, Abraham fulfilled the first commandment in loving God with all his heart and mind by obeying. But in your case, Michael, we have a violation of the commandment to not commit adultery, which thing God did not do with Abraham. Both sacrifice of children and adultery are abhorrent to God.

An attempt is made to explain away the fact that adultery took place.

You write: “These events could not rationally be construed into a man sneaking around trying to commit adultery with another man’s wife, especially since the future consummation was all announced beforehand in clear detail to the congregation. Nothing was secret or hidden. The witnesses to the event were given over beforehand by the ones who had previously laid claim to them.”

Just because a man determines to give his wife to another man does not make it acceptable or not adultery. Abraham tried to give his wife to another man; it wasn’t OK then, and it isn’t now. People do many things out in the open, without shame, which are often wrong and evil. Such a measuring stick is not right; it places confidence in man, not God.

You write: “If men would tell the truth only for a minute, the crisis would not be upon the earth, but they will not tell the truth.”

Friends, you have things backwards. You expect men to tell the truth, yet “Let God be true, but every man a liar” (Romans 3:4). However, God rules over all from heaven, so, thankfully, it is not unregenerate men who determine the ultimate outcome. It would be an evil outcome, as you continually conclude and pronounce, rather than a good one, as He has spoken and given those who believe to know and have hope.

#6. The “witnesses” offering themselves and later the husbands offering them, all apparently incommunicado, is offered as proof of a miracle and God’s leading. Nothing could be further from the truth. Firstly, the idea of this consummation was put out there on more than one occasion as referred to in the writing:

“I began trying to prepare the people in the land for the eventuality of a literal, physical consummation as Jesus tried to prepare His people for the literal cross that was before Him. At the Jewish New Year camp meeting, I strongly emphasized the literal, physical consummation of that marriage. I believe few actually got the significance of what was presented. Even though I spoke plainly and literally.”

It is clear that the carnal idea was planted in the minds of the listeners:

“I knew that some of the church people saw things the same way, for some had reservations that I would sleep with their wives when presented with the image the Father had presented me. That proved they had the earth view of it as I had.”

It is really not hard at all to imagine what things will transpire with such seed and a little watering.

Even if events are of a miraculous nature that does not mean they are of God. Remember that Wicked whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of His mouth, “Even him, whose coming is after the workings of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders…” (II Thes. 2:9).

But there is considerable natural explanation for what happened amongst you.

#7. Another contradiction is this: You excoriate men’s religious works, yet you also cite them as providing the critical link in Bible prophecy that points to your role as Messiah, using dates relating to a religious dispute between a monk and the Catholic church:

“On the last day of the consummation, 21 days after the beginning, I was shown that the Messiah had come and consummated the marriage exactly 483 years to the day after the beginning of the Reformation, which officially commenced with the nailing of the 95 Theses by Martin Luther on the church door at Wittenburg, October 31, 1517. Sixty nine weeks of years had passed, and to the day, the marriage in heaven was satisfied. ‘Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem [The beginning of the Reformation] unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks.’”

As we can see, your claim hinges on this critical piece of timing. But God does not consider a monkish dispute to be the beginning of the commandment to restore Jerusalem. The Catholic church never was what Jerusalem represents, the people of God. Luther wasn’t fixing true Christianity, he was disputing from within Mystery Babylon. It was an inner family squabble, and still is.

#8. There is yet more confusion.

Michael, you write: “The crucifixion of Jesus was the plan of hell, but they had thought the cross would overthrow Him. It did not, and hell was confounded. So it is with the marriage.”

Yet in another place you write: “Satan tried every possible offense to get Messiah to save Himself and yield up the contest, repenting that He had followed His Father’s leading. Again, the adversary failed, and now it is too late to overturn it. It is done.”

This is true and contradicts your former statement and the Scriptures, which states that it was not the plan of hell that Jesus was delivered over to the wicked, but it was done “by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God” (Acts 2:23). It was the plan of God, even foretold by the Passover feast, which Jesus fulfilled. It is not necessarily sin to be confused or wrong, but you don’t have the luxury of being wrong on the things of God, as God.

#9. You write: “And the two witnesses will be far more effective in sharing their experience of the Most Holy Place than Michael. They not only receive Michael and His Father’s love, but they receive their own added experience and can pour that oil onto others as Michael poured it upon them.”

It is impossible that the Messiah, in resurrection power, is less capable than two mortals that can die. How can anyone be more effective in getting the message out than the Message Himself?! He is the Spirit of prophecy that gives men a testimony. Yours is unsound spiritual reasoning, for which a man can be forgiven, but for which he certainly can’t be considered as God.

#10. There is a subtle and not so subtle context in the writing that negates God’s order in relationships. Evidence of this overturning of God’s order and law is in the following description and explanation of events:

“The Father came down upon the two witnesses and anointed them for this specific purpose. They gave up earthly relationships, children and personal property. This fulfilled the words of Jesus. ‘If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.’ Luke 14:26. ‘So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple.’ Luke 14:33. The two witnesses forsook all that they had. The two witnesses hated their earth for the love of Messiah. They forsook all that they had to come to Him. So it is that they will be the first fruits. ‘But every man in his own order: Christ (Messiah) the first fruits; afterward they that are Christ’s at his coming.’ 1 Cor. 15:23. The forsaking of husbands, children, homes and any other interest is represented by the two witnesses. They are signposts as to what the soul must yield in order to be married to God.”

Nowhere does Scripture ever justify women forsaking husbands. Even the very Scriptures you quoted to make your case testify against you. Women are not called to do as the “witnesses” did, forsaking their husbands, any more than men (as bride) are called on to forsake Christ (husband).

#11. How did Michael come to believe he is Messiah? According to your testimony you received a spirit in the land you purchased. This spirit has manifested itself through you, working with your man of sin to convince you that you are God (II Thess 2). Your fascination with this land reveals that you were not going by revelation from above. The following only shows that you equate a bargain with the leading of God:

“I was somewhat dumbstruck that the best property I had found was the least money. The mark of Father was all over it.”

You perished with your money in that thought. You even go so far as to say that God Himself resided in this piece of land! Here is the outlandish statement:

“… I began feeling a great urge to pursue the purchase of the new land that I had sound where I had felt the wonderful silence of the soul. I believed that God Himself resided in this place.”

We know that God does not reside in beautiful scenery. He resides in His people, and such as worship Him find Him not in this mountain or that physical place, even where He had His Name previously, but in Spirit and in Truth. This land spirit which entered you is altogether another spirit than the Spirit of God.

You write: “Shortly after I posted the Song, as I sat in my living room chair, I was strongly directed by God, ‘You are Messiah.’ At this moment, the Spirit I had previously felt in the land entered into me. Now this Spirit of perfect rest and peace was no longer out there and influencing me. It was fully in my own soul and was identified with my own person. That Spirit was now who I was. I became God- possessed. This was my deliverance and the end of all my human woes.”

Michael, that spirit was not God, but one that had license to possess you because of your lusts.

#12. It therefore follows that this experience of “nirvana,” coming from a spirit in the land and not God, wasn’t the end of all human woes. It is a demonic trap to think that, because you have a wonderful experience and feeling of release or ecstasy, it’s of God. In the Scriptures the saints who came into contact with the living God described feelings of anything but release or ecstasy. Even John, who walked in the Spirit for many years, fell at His feet as dead when he saw Him. Devils give good feelings which mask disease. God gives holy fear, Whose end is peace and rest to the inward man. However, Paul describes the battles he had in his flesh. The expectation of a floating bliss is a delusion of devils, unreal and unholy. You make an appearance at the wedding feast without the wedding garment.

#13. Using the words of a false prophetess for confirmation of doctrine and the work of God is a sign of falsehood. Michael, you liberally quote Ellen White. She often went insensate under the influence of devils, which is something true prophets do not do (“the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets”). Devils are very religious talkers, and hers were no different. Having been made familiar with some of her teachings I pick up on them throughout your writings.

For example, you state: “In the Old Testament there are examples of strong judgment which precludes any hope of repentance. A man or woman may have a physical encounter and still be alive to think and to live, but when one is killed, no such opportunity exists. Murder would seem a far greater crime than adultery and with far greater consequences. In 1 Kings 18:40, Elijah killed about four hundred men. That is a good number of dead bodies. They could never now repent for what they had done.”

This statement shows you ascribe to the erroneous idea that those who physically die without faith are asleep and slated for annihilation, which Ellen White taught (or you believe something even worse, torment without end). This is all unScriptural. The Lord preached to the spirits in prison who were disobedient in the days of Noah. It is not all over at physical death, as taught by those who wish these things upon others, often in bitterness over their own rejection. And for the Adventist answer that the above Scripture is talking about spirit beings who are not men, look at the verse further on (I Peter 4:6), “For this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the Spirit.”

#14. You apply a double standard in your writing. You expect the carnal man to receive the things you speak, and when he doesn’t, a condemnation follows that appears as righteous indignation and weepy tears.

You write: “I came in the clouds of heaven, I gathered Your children from the four winds, separating the sheep from the goats, but few men have heard my call. Few men will see me with the eyes of their heart, except to drive me away from them. I have explained things clearly, and made all things plain, but they would have none of it. They turned their eyes away greatly desiring that they not be convinced of the truth, for they loved their sins.”

You explained things so clearly! And stupid men, they didn’t listen, so now you give them over to their just desserts for not accepting your explanations! How unlike the One you say you are! He spoke in parables, and didn’t explain things to those who didn’t believe. And instead of calling fire down from heaven, as you do in your manner and spirit, He rebuked His disciples, James and John, for thinking such thoughts and forgave those who crucified Him. Yet you would consign those who simply disagreed with you to unimaginable pain or annihilation! And on top of that you are wrong! Is this not enough audacity for everyone listening? Have you not had enough? Must you all go down in flames, destroyed with the judgments you pronounce on others?

You write: “Hear me precious Lover of the soul, and come down now in Your justice. You must now do Your work of strangeness, that mysterious letting go and giving over. How hard it is for You, but it must be done. Oh, Friend, now thrust in the sickle and let the wrath be revealed, for it must come. We will turn away from those who have loved to destroy the earth, and Your children will ascend from off its surface into the realms of Your peace.”

Your children happen to be whoever agrees with you, the rest be damned. However, “if you love them which love you what reward have you, do not even publicans the same?” (Matthew 5:46) The child of God is called to higher. Michael, you are bitter, and not so empty as you think.

You write: “There are those who have dared to tell me that they were good people. I do not know a good person. Tell Me now, waste my time with your sorcery and say that you are good. How dare you lie right to My face about your goodness. You are not good and you are not good at all. You lie daily, and you lie in this. You are vain, self-interested, self-preserving, and nauseating. You are crude and course. I am saying this to the Pope, the minister, the religious practitioner, the one who offers many prayers. I am saying this to the President, the Congress, the attorneys and those in the soup kitchens. I say this to the Red Cross, the Red Crescent, the Christian, Muslim, Jew and spiritualist. You ALL stand unfit, and untrue. You are liars and you follow your master the devil in the carrying out of your schemes, albeit, some of you pretend you are nice and even godly.”

Michael, you know not what spirit you are of. You have taken personally real and imagined insults, and now you will wreak havoc on man who has had the audacity not to believe you. The judgment you sense coming is your own, and those who follow you likewise partake in it.

You write: “The sadness of my Father has been felt by me. He has borne long with this generation. The nations have had centuries to consider and to build upon the things the first coming of Messiah presented. There are millions who claim to believe in Messiah, but they only believe in a picture the flesh has concocted. They cannot receive me, since they cannot comprehend through the flesh those things revealed by the Spirit.”

Again, you look to man and his righteousness and reject all men, condemning them for what you surpass them all in, ignorance and presumption. Since when was it dependent on man’s ability to get it right?

They didn’t listen to you, billions over the centuries. Hence this glorious messiah named Michael will destroy 99.9999990% of mankind. Satan is victorious. Yet God truly reigns sovereign in Heaven and it is declared:

“All nations that You have made shall come and worship before You, O Lord, and shall glorify your Name” (Psalm 86:9).

“…Who will have all men to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth… Who gave Himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time” (I Timothy:4, 6).

#15. On your website, Michael, you use depictions of the Lord Jesus contrary to the second commandment of God. This is not right; it is sin. “For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments, and His commandments are not grievous” (I John 5:3).

#16. The method of testing you teach for the validity of your claims is not new, but it is diabolical:

“One may now ask himself the question, What if all of this is a deception? Father foresaw this concern so thereby made a way. It was stated early on that all the people should go to the Father and ask Him if these things happening in the land were of Him. ALL said that Father revealed to them that He had brought these things to pass when they asked Him.”

This method has been well proven by the Mormon church in particular, which presses men to ask God the same of Joseph Smith and his revelation as you do here. Interestingly enough, those under their influence get the same answer as your congregation get. I have met such, and they testify, with tears in their eyes, of their blessed assurance of the validity of their prophet. They are deceived by demons no less than you people are. Did Jesus ever ask people to tempt God with such questions of Himself? Only insecure and wicked men do such a thing. Demons are only too willing to oblige those who worship man, with all kinds of manifestations and feelings.

#17. As I mentioned at the beginning, it is true that Christ comes in His people, in the flesh. However, Michael, you speak as if you are the One and Only Messiah. That is not so; His body is corporate. We come in His Spirit and Name and even now we speak to you from Him. It is His testimony that we speak to you. In no way, as His servants, could we ever point to you as Messiah, for we point to the Risen Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We are brethren of Paul and Barnabas, who ripped their clothes when men thought to worship them as gods. We receive the testimony of Jesus from our brothers and sisters, and, as Moses, we would love to see all His people prophesying. But you appropriate to yourself what belongs solely to God. You, sir, blaspheme. Not only are you destroying yourself but those who believe you. You are in all evil, Michael. We say this not to condemn but to win you and those with you to the One you claim to be. We are here on His behalf.

“Michael’s” reply:

Paul,

Michael

Paul’s reply:

Michael,

I posted my letter only a few minutes before receiving your response (literally 5 minutes); it is impossible that you have read thoroughly what I have said. You may surmise from a glance, but I suggest you read the whole letter carefully. You will see I have quoted you extensively, making your assertion, that I haven’t red the website, erroneous. Since I have red it, and the proof is there (not only do I quote you, but I am intimately familiar with where you are coming from and what you are claiming), it is again shown that you are one seduced by lying spirits. Talk about having their sight blocked, you do not even read what I write, and then you jump to conclusions! If you wish to correspond on these things, I suggest you do so point by point, if you can. I have taken the time to carefully review your materials; generic platitudes and accusations in return will not cut the mustard.

Paul

Victor had written “Michael” before Paul’s letter, sharing some things about us and asking him some questions. “Michael” would not give any substantive answers. Here is what Victor wrote back to him:

Michael,

When Jesus was about to ascend into Heaven to be on the right hand of the Father, He said, “All power (authority) has been given Me in Heaven and in earth….” With that authority comes knowledge, and with His knowledge, authority. Jesus Christ never lost that authority and knowledge since the resurrection, reigning until all things are put under His feet. He was never to die again, having conquered death itself.

You have read my website and have known that I declare in my testimony that I am that man walking with the Lord Jesus Christ in the dream God gave me in 1972. So I am. For one who says he is the Messiah, you know very little, and your conduct and words betray you. Michael, your end is not good, even as your path to your end is not good if you continue on it. But so it must be, that the Scriptures recording the Words of the One with Whom I walk in this day, and Whom you claim to be, might be fulfilled: “For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.”

Let it be declared on your site that I, Victor Hafichuk, have spoken these things to you and to all those who witness your claims and conduct. On the land, as recorded, you received a seducing spirit. You will fall if you continue as you do, exposed as a false messiah, and so will those with you. This is not a vindictive statement or one of enmity toward you or one of any ill will toward you and yours. I would rather that you repent and be delivered from destruction. It would be a joy to me.

Victor

“Michael’s” reply:

I delight in your letter this day. It only proved My Father’s word to Me. My Father told Me who you were and that is why I did not answer your questions any longer. You may declare what you will, but you are a bag of wind and deception. You are the counterfeit of My appearing, the adversary of My Father’s words to Me.

No, I have not read your website. I didn’t even know you had one. Your false prophecy reveals your misguided nature. When we communicated, I could see your nature missed my communications altogether. You would continue to take My words in a different way than I intended. I knew by this you were not of My Father. Your spirit did not connect with my Spirit.

If you stood next to Christ you would be standing next to Me, for I AM He that is to come into the world. I know this, for even this morning My Father’s precious love came down on Me with great power. He put His mouth on My mouth so that I would only speak His words. His head is on My head, and His hands on My hands.

Yes, it is fulfilled that there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. You may gnash your teeth against Me all you like, but My heart is not driven by the ranting of common men. My heart is driven by My Father who gave Himself over into My soul. If you knew Him, you would know Me.

Michael

“Michael” also lashed out at us on his website. “Obed” and “Blessed Quietness” jumped in, sending us letters defending their “Messiah.” Here are two further replies from Victor that wrap things up:

Michael,

I read your latest diary, speaking against me. You say I rant and rave but you no longer know or care to know the difference between truth spoken for your sake and ranting and raving. Truly, your website is full of what you accuse me of.

It is obvious that you are trying to convince somebody, but whom? Your followers? Do they need convincing if they have “your spirit”? Are you trying to convince the wicked whom you say do not believe you? I thought you said you were finished with those, not interested in saving them. I can quote you on that. Or perhaps you are trying to convince yourself! Most likely. Need the Messiah convince anyone? Need the Messiah rant and rave about His creation for whom He gave His life?

Michael, when a fool is a fool, he is a fool! How dark you are, and how spiritually arrogant and ill! Post this letter on your site, coward. Don’t delete it and ignore it while ranting and raving in your diary. Post my letter with my name; put me down on public record as to my words toward you this day. I dare you to expose me to others or risk exposing yourself. For those who have eyes to see, you have already exposed yourself. You are the one in fear. I am not. Go ahead, post this, and I ask each and every reader to copy it and keep it on record. We will see who speaks falsehood and who speaks truth. You are a self and Satan deluded imposter, and you will fall, and fall hard. Print that, you coward and fox.

In the Name of the One and True Lord Jesus Christ, Whom I serve with gladness
of heart and zeal,

Victor Hafichuk

And:

Michael,

You have dealt with a lot of phonies in your religious life. You are one yourself. This time you have stumbled on the Stone and you will proceed no further. Now you are dealing with the Lord Himself through us, Whom we represent, not presumptuously, religiously, and falsely as do you, but in the Spirit of the Lord and in Truth. Your game is up.

You are a spiritual idiot, mad, consumed with yourself. I defy you to your face. You say your “witnesses” speak forth fire out of their mouths, according to Revelation 11:5. I say they spew dung out of your mouth. We will see who speaks fire. You don’t intimidate me; you are one who is the son of the prince of fear. You are spiritually senseless, ignorant, lawless, a son of pride and arrogance of the first degree. You have nothing whatsoever to do with the Lord Jesus Christ but with Ashtoreth, the pagan sex goddess of lust and fertility, both you and your lecherous “witnesses.”

Go ahead, “Obed” and “Blessed Quietness,” remain in bed, as you declare and choose, with your whoremonger, according to the principle expressed in Revelation 2:20-21: “Nevertheless, I have a few things against you, because you allow that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess, to teach and seduce My servants to commit sexual immorality and eat things sacrificed to idols. And I gave her time to repent of her sexual immorality, and she did not repent.”

You are even now cast into a sickbed: “Indeed I will cast her into a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her into great tribulation, unless they repent of their deeds. I will kill her children with death, and all the churches shall know that I am He Who searches the minds and hearts. And I will give to each one of you according to your works” (Rev. 2:22-23).

I again defy you to publish all that I write to you for the public record. I have nothing to fear, you have everything to fear; I have all things, you have nothing.

In the Glorious Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Praise God in the Highest! Let His enemies be thoroughly ashamed! Amen!
