Download PDF version:  You Can’t Shut Me Up, I Know Too Much

Slowly but surely I became aware that I was missing so much of Biblical Christianity and that the Church was completely ignorant of what has been lost.  Counting on the help of the Holy Spirit, I set out to discover what has been lost.  After 36 years, I have only just begun.

Over time I began to see through revelation that the Holy Spirit provided as I took the time to study His word I began to see what was lost and I can honestly say I am astonished.  Unfortunately, the establishment of the Church wants to shut me up.  But they can’t shut me up.  I know too much and I’m going to preach to anyone who cares to listen what they in the establishment are doing; the so-called leaders who preach bondage to their slaves, securing their iron bonds every Sunday in an attempt to control those who are called to freedom and liberty in Christ.

Many so-called pastors and leaders today don’t want members who think they are free to follow the Holy Spirit and His Word without their counsel.  In fact they have gone out of their way to add shackles to shackles, chains to chains, while building prison houses and dungeons until those in their congregations can no longer move.  With the sheep cast down, they add burdens to their bondage having forgotten that there is a God in Heaven who watches.  Those who are themselves white-washed sepulchers only build what they are.

No, I’m free by His grace and by His grace I’m going to stay that way.  I’ve fought too long for my freedom; I’ve paid too high a price.  I refuse to allow the pastors and other evil and/or ignorant leaders of this generation to fill my head with a pack of lies.  I can and will meet with others in my own home, or any place He leads, to study the Bible and honor the Holy Spirit who will lead us all into truth as we break His Bread together with sincere hearts and an honest desire to know Him better.  I choose to submit to the leading of the Holy Spirit and move in His power.  Why should I succumb to the demonic teaching that permits the dishonoring of the Holy Spirit?!  Why should I look upon the suffering, disease ridden masses who don’t know that the reason they are sick is because their Healer isn’t allowed in His own House?!

No!  It would be insane for me to remain.  I will preach from the land of truth and freedom that I secured and which Jesus purchased for me.  I will tell those in bondage, “You do not have to live in the deceived state you are in!  You can come out!  You do not have to listen to the half-truths that are the ultimate result of not following the Holy Spirit.  Once you make the decision to leave you will find that the chains that bind you will fall at your feet.  The door is wide open.  Run for your lives and for the freedom that Jesus purchased through His suffering on the Cross!  Run!  The gate to the prison is open!”

Yes, I know too much; Paul knew too much.  Today, His cry echoes through the power of the Spirit –

Colossians 2:6–8 (NASB95) — 6 Therefore as you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, 7 having been firmly rooted and now being built up in Him and established in your faith, just as you were instructed, and overflowing with gratitude. 8 See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, according to the tradition of men, according to the elementary principles of the world, rather than according to Christ.

In 2000 years we have allowed theologians to strip Christianity of its power by convincing us through their warped teaching and deceptive, manipulative ways that the Holy Spirit does not move as He did in Bible days.  To those sitting in a chamber of horrors, surrounded by the dead attempting to prop up a camouflaged den of Hell, I say, “Come out and let the dead bury their own dead.  Come out into the sunshine and the warmth of the presence of the Holy Spirit and the truth He reveals to those who seek Him.  You cannot go any further without perishing – the way is shut!  If you continue, you will seal your doom.”

As I set on my course of discovery, understanding by His grace that I had nothing to offer, I prayed, “Unless you open my eyes I cannot partner with you in your will.  Give me eyes to see and ears to hear!”  The blessing for me was that He answered with a thundering bolt of lightning that changed me forever and burned the scales from my eyes and set my heart on fire.

You and I cannot recover what are essentially the pillars of truth that are the bedrock of our faith until we encounter our own depravity.  A depravity of heart that recognizes that it has nothing – nothing but scorched earth that surrounds us; powerless, anemic, sanctimonious, pitiful gatherings devoid of power that pastors have the audacity to claim are normal.  Oh, but beware, these false leaders claim they want more, they even pray for more, but they will not heed and they will not listen to the Holy Spirit who called them.  Why?  They have forsaken their first love, desiring the approval of man rather than God.  They want to be accepted by others rather than be true to their calling to raise up disciples rather than pawns that come to grovel for a moldy piece of bread every Sunday.  Convinced that is all that is available, their prisoners attempt to live a living death.

I know too much.  Having set out to find out what we had lost, I also found that Christians everywhere were deceived in propping up a system with their finances and their time that is nothing but a house of darkness, overtaken by leaders who think they can do ministry without following the Spirit of Jesus, who they claim to serve, and worse, without believing the scripture they claim to teach.  No, I will have none of it.  I won’t eat their prison gruel and I won’t listen to their half-truths.  They know nothing of the Holy Spirit and they know nothing of truth because they have forsaken The One who is The Truth.

It is a black and horrible scandal that has been perpetrated in our day and for far too long.  It has been a long time coming…but its end has come.  He who is The Omega, will bring it to an end.

Come out into the Light!  The time for battle has come; a time of great victory.  In order for you to be useful, you must write your own pardon and leave the bondage and the burdens of men behind.  Only then will you be fit for the Master’s use.  Once you leave, you too will know too much.  The taste of freedom is too sweet to surrender to those who know nothing of freedom.  Only when you are free will you be able to preach, “FREEDOM IN CHRIST!”
