Reverend Bob Larson performing exorcisms via Skype from Scottsdale

Whenever Bob is asked about his salary, the figure he usually cites is $69,000. And if that were a true representation of what he made from the ministry, we would applaud him for his selflessness. But when Bob testifies under oath, either in tax returns or court papers, he sings a radically different tune.

According to Ministry tax returns for the years 1990-93, Bob received over $1,200,000 in compensation. That doesn’t include the roughly $50,000 per year in “consulting fees” he received from the Bob Larson Ministry Society of Canada, the $150,000 bonus he claimed was for salary from previous years, or the money he earns from “his” books. Bottom-line, he makes about $500,000 a year – almost all of it from his ministry.

In October of 1985, Bob and ex-wife Kathy bought the office building in Lakewood, Colorado for $1,415,000, taking out a $1,550,000 mortgage that same day to finance it. Less than 15 months later, with Colorado real estate prices dropping, they sold it to his ministry for $1,800,000. While the Larsons made an apparent profit of $385,000 from the deal, his Ministry was left holding the bag – taking a $650,000 loss, paid for by your faithful contributions.

On the surface, it appears Larson sold the building to the ministry at an inflated price.

This is somewhat borne out by the price at which he sold it in 1995 to its new corporate owners. They paid a mere $1,150,000 in a real estate market that has enjoyed a great deal of appreciation in the last five years.

Very true Zot.... When Baldwin could, he sent them to the light.....

Yes, and he also converted some evil spirits by leading them to see that they had been lied to, deceived and led astray, and sent them to the Light.

That is what automatically happens when you approach them from Love and compassion. You could do nothing else.

To to otherwise would lower you to their level and you would lode the battle.

I’ve been doing this for about 25 years. It gets real interesting at times. It’s not me doing it, but is done though me.

The process is real, but there are many imitators.

The greatest power of an attached spirit is the hosts ignorance that they even exist.

There are many types of spirits. One type is the weeds or tares in the wheat field that Jesus spoke of in Matthew 13. That’s why there is an increase recently in the forcefulness of their activity. It’s just beginning to get hot... This is the true global climate change!!!

Lose the battle..... missed that one..

Somehow I doubt this story.

It’s not me doing it, but is done though me.

Yes, precisely. God's angels do this when it is done in accordance with the good-will of God.

I began doing spirit release instantly without ever seeing it done or even knowing the subject existed.

When I encountered my first attached spirit, it was causing a medical condition in an ER nurse. At the time I did not even believe in ghosts as this left brained logical beancounter’s total reality was based upon a logical perception of reality. I was a CPA and university professor. However, I died, left my body and when I came back things were different in a way that changed my life dramatically.

I learned spirit release by listening to the words coming out of my mouth and feeling the energy radiating through me. I must say, at the time I was really stupid, too stupid to be afraid. That was a blessing as the encounters increased to the point where I was encountering very strong demons with no problem. I just trusted God and hung on for the ride. I found that the cases kept getting more and more bizarre the more frequently I did it. This was pretty much in the early 1990’s.

One night when I was redeeming spirits to the other side, satan himself appeared to me. I turned to Michael and said, “There he is, you can get him!” To which Michael replied, “It’s not time yet.” That was when I first realized that God is in charge and even satan is being used as part of God’s Divine plan. The bigger picture unfolded and I stopped doing the work unless I was specifically guided to do it. It was no longer my identity.

Thus when I met the Baldwins, I was amazed that they were saying many of the same things that came out of my mouth previously. They were both good people. But when you do this type of work, you must first work on yourself to remove your vulnerabilities to the darkness and then as an empty vessel, become a tool of the Divine. That was Bill’s downfall. I do not criticize him as I understand. It is a constant battle for me as well.

If I allow my ego to get to big and become full of myself, leaving no room for God, I get stung, suffer the difficult healing experience and fall back to the bottom allowing me to to the work. When we are full of ourselves we have no room for God.

Dr. Irene Hickman was a personal friend of mine and was one of the most angelic beings I have ever met in a physical body. If you ever read her book on spirit deposession, I am the guy in the transcript of dealing with a demon on page 113. The demon was trying to kill me as my work was ruining their plans. She used a transcript of the tape recording of our work as the chapter in her book. Funny thing, Bill Baldwin threatened Irene with litigation for using his copyright term “Spirit Releasement.” (Per Irene) One of the many tricks satan uses is to turn his opponents against each other.

Like Bill Baldwin, Irene Hickman, Henry Smith-Rohrberg, and several others who were doing this work back then, they got stung,burned by the work and ended up dead. Of the group I knew doing this work in the early 1990’s, I’m the only one still living, and only by the Grace of God.

I’ve noticed an increase in the dark spirit activity recently and realize they are preparing for a big confrontation. At a lower level, I see what is coming as absolute hell, but from a higher level of understanding I see God’s plan to empty the vessels for new wine. It is absolutely wonderful and warms my heart to be here and participating in what is happening. We truly are in the springtime of soul growth. These are not “end times” but the end of the pregnancy where people will be “awakened,” just as Jesus described.

People just don’t understand at this time that when you are truly “Baptized of the Spirit” you begin to communicate directly through your spirit or soul rather than your physical sensory organs. You experience God rather than just theoretically believing. You “know” rather than “believe.” That is the process of “awakening” in Christianity and also the “enlightenment” process described in Buddhism and Hinduism. That is why Jesus stated that “The things that I do and more you to shall to through me.”

There are no coincidences, they are just events where God chooses to remain anonymous.

“Somehow I doubt this story.”

Your tagline: (”With God all things are possible.” Matthew 19:26)

Do you see any contradiction? (just teasing) It is very healthy to be a skeptic in all things. Discernment is an important tool on any spiritual path.

Thank you for this explanation of your work in spirit release. I understood from your previous posts that you know what you are talking about. I agree that the need for this work is increasing, and I will order a copy of Dr. Irene Hickman’s book on spirit deposession.

Ping to all posts by tired&retired

zot, thank you for the ping. I have re-read all of T&R’s posts and find them understandable and sensible. From my limited background & observation of Baldwin’s/T&R’s technique, T&R is the true ‘exorcist’ here and not Larson. Discernment, Jesus’ help for demons to the light, & ‘no charge’ as Jesus commanded.

My thanks to you both Z, T&R for sharing your information.

I am no exorcist. To label myself as such would formulate an identity that would separate me from God. While I participate in exorcisms, it is not me, but God working through me that does the work. I am merely a servant or tool of my Father who works through me.

I can not claim the honor of my Father that works through me. All thanks and glory must always go to God.

I don’t mean this to be confusing nor to elevate myself, but just as we recognize Jesus as being within us through communion, we must remember what Jesus said, “the Father is in me, and I in the Father.”

John 14:
10 Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you I do not speak on my own authority. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work. 11 Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the works themselves. 12 Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. 13 And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.

20 On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you. 21 Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love them and show myself to them.”

This outlines the secret to doing this work..... 1 John 4 further clarifies it.

I am no one special as we are all equal. The door is open equally to all who knock. God’s Love is unconditional and freeing, not conditional and controlling like human love.

26 But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. 27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

These words are true to my heart and not my ego formulating an identity around spiritual knowledge. To do so would be to my detriment. This is why Paul stated that if I must brag, please allow me to brag of my faults.

T&R, I realize that you are not an exorcist, that is why I used the word in quotation marks. My using it was for those who are not familiar with how and why you work and your techniques would have a frame of reference. And I understand that God is working through you. You are merely the pipeline/connection for him to rescue the spirits.
