  1. A note on Youtube Ads: We tried to keep ads off in this film so that the gospel could be presented uninterupted. However, because our film contains music that was licensed through The Music Bed website, Youtube flagged a number of songs automatically, which forces ads to be turned on for those music creators. We submitted a dispute to prove that we paid to license these songs in the film, but Youtube says it will take up to 30 days to review. In sum, Youtube is forcing us to have ads on this film, but we are hoping to get them turned off as soon as possible.

    In the meantime, an ad-free version of this can be viewed for free on AGTV:

  2. @AmericanGospel I find it strange that you only got "protestants" to comment. Were you not able to get representation from the Orthodox, Catholic, Anglican , Methodists or do have a problem with them?

    Secondly these denominations I have mentioned are not part of the Word of Faith movement and they do not teach heretical things!

  4. I cannot thank the Lord enough for all of you sharing the true Gospel in such a bright light of a way.
    Very very well done on this Documentary! 🎉

    It did what it was supposed to do, make people think, make people recognise false doctrines, make people see the real and true Jesus as we're supposed to see Him.

  5. God woke me up about the prosperity gospel when covid started, this is a wake up call in these last days with the church we now call business. Christ warned us about this also, many of these congregations complied to the rituals that come with the plandemic.

  6. It is all a hoax.

    The predominant religion in the Roman Empire during the time of Messiah, and following His resurrection, was Mithraism. It originated in Babel.

    The early “church leaders” began to mix Mithraism with the worship of YHWH 'Elohiym, adopting beliefs and practices which came to be known as "christianity" under the leadership of the RCC and Constantine. Mithraism gave emphasis to the worship of the sun god.

    For example, the birthday of the sun god, in Mithraism, was December 25.

    The day of worship to the sun god, in Mithraism, was Sunday (Sun Day).

    When the Roman Empire no longer practiced Mithraism, the practices and beliefs of Mithraism were adopted into "christianity," through the RCC.

    The Roman calendar included the day of the Sun for worship of Sol Invictus.

    In 321 AD, Constantine I, Rome's first tolerant Emperor, decreed Sunday (dies Solis) would be observed as the ROMAN DAY OF REST:

    "On the venerable day of the Sun let the magistrates and people residing in cities rest, and let all workshops be closed."

    Consequently, during this time, the true worship of YHWH 'Elohiym of Yisra'el, and Yeshua as Messiah, became mingled with the beliefs and practices of Mithraism. In doing so, christianity committed the same rebellion as the children of Yisra'el, when Mosheh delayed coming down from Har-Ciynay, by encouraging 'Aharown to help them build a golden calf.

    Therefore, what happened to Mosheh, 'Aharown and the children of Yisra'el, in Exodus 32, was a foreshadowing of future "christianity".

    1 Corinthians 10:6
    Now these things occurred as examples to keep us from setting our minds on evil things, as they did.

    What happened when the people saw Mosheh didn't come down from the mountain in the time frame they expected?

    EX 32:4
    He took what they handed him and made it into an idol cast in the shape of a calf, fashioning it with a tool. Then they said, "These are your gods, Yisra'el, who brought you up out of Mitsrayim." When 'Aharown saw this, he built an altar in front of the calf and announced, "Tomorrow there will be a festival to YHWH." So, the next day the people rose early and sacrificed `owlah offerings and presented shalam offerings. Afterward they sat down to eat and drink, and got up to indulge in debauchery.

    In these verses, we can see the golden calf the people made was NOT to worship any god in Egypt. Instead, the golden calf is CALLED the worship of YHWH 'Elohiym of Yisra'el.

    'Aharown and the children of Yisra'el built the golden calf and proclaimed they would make a "feast to YHWH" and offer "burnt offerings and peace offerings." A "Chag to YHWH, `owlowt and shlamiym" is how YHWH 'Elohiym of Yisra'el instructed His people to worship Him.

    Therefore, the rebellion of the people was mixing the worship of YHWH 'Elohiym of Yisra'el with the ways of the world and paganism, and then calling this system of worship the true worship of YHWH 'Elohiym of Yisra'el.

    So, "christianity" has committed this same great rebellion of mixing the worship of YHWH 'Elohiym of Yisra'el with the ways of the world and paganism.

  7. Watching this documentary makes me so grateful I came to Christ late in life and outside the parameters of these church buildings. It also confirms to me it was the Holy Spirit that not only led me away from joining one of these buildings, but also led me to 1st study the lies, deceptions and infiltration of these professing churches. It was only after I completely submitted and surrendering myself to Christ that my true journey began. Everything discussed in this documentary our Heavenly Father has already confirmed to me. As a result I continue studying scripture daily, and continue to grow my faith, change and transform all for His glory as I'm led to continually clean my garments in preparation for His return. Walking daily in scripture has completely changed and transformed my life. I live each day all for His glory and in service to Him. Putting Him 1st and foremost in my life above everything else. Now, I cannot imagine going a day without Him. He is truly my life, my very breath! I tear up every time I think of just how unworthy of Him we are. Yet He still loves us and shows us mercy. What an amazing Heavenly Father we have! 😇🤗🥰💝🙏

  8. The modern-day so-called christian gospel has absolutely no connection whatsoever with first, second, or third-century christianity. The early Christian churches were persecuted by the Roman Empire for almost three hundred years. Christians were thrown to lions, burned to death, decapitated, and crucified. Women, old men, even children. No one was spared. Then Constantine came on the scene and said, "You can have your kingdom over there and I will have my kingdom over here." The survivors said, "It's a deal" and the persecutions ended and nothing has been the same ever since. The fact that the civil authorities do not persecute the church is proof that the objective of the modern Christian church has absolutely nothing to do with the objective of the early churches. Someone is bound to say, "Hold it there fellah. Do you not know that there are Christians being persecuted and some killed even recently?" I answer, "Yes, you are absolutely correct. However, not for the same reason." And this is what the problem is.

  9. This film has so many goodies in it, so I tried to break it down into smaller segments to help my own digestion. Hope this helps someone, too.

  10. The only problem I have with this is that at times it makes it seem like God does not reward obedience. Ever. He took David from Shepard to King and conquered all his enemies along the way. He did none of this because David was obedient? Sometimes God ends lives badly. But Sometimes he makes them great. ITS NOT ALL BAD. God made Charlie Kirk catch a bullet to the neck but before that he blessed him immensely.

  11. I'm not saying the prosperity gospel is right by any means but there's numerous times in the Bible where God rewards obedience. That's not what we praise him but to cite the disciples deaths and infer God doesn't ever reward obedience faith or righteousness is insane.

    Because you have done this and not withheld your son your only son I will surely bless you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky
    Genesis 22 15-18
