Andrew Lloyd Webber, known for his musical "The Phantom of the Opera," has opened up about his encounter with a “mischievous spirit” at his Eaton Square residence in London — and how he sought a priest's help to remove the entity.In an interview with The Telegraph, the award-winning composer revealed that while he has never seen a ghost, his former 19th century home in Eaton Square was occupied by a poltergeist that would “do things like take theatre scripts and put them in a neat pile in some obscure room.”“In the end we had to get a priest to come...

The devil’s purpose for temptation is to split us from the fabric of God’s love—to make us believe that God doesn’t keep His promises. He’ll use people, events, health, wealth, guilt, injustice, and even the Word of God to bring out the worst in us. But God has given us an arsenal to use against Satan. God’s people, His Word, and most of all, Jesus. When the devil comes to remind you of your past, you can use the Word of God and the work of Jesus to remind him of his future. Jesus has already fought the devil and...

A mother of three is making international headlines for her ‘ability’ to communicate with the dead relatives of her now-famous clientele.Chloe Smith, 25, claims to be able to see angels and talk to the spirits of the dead.

While all humans are image bearers of the Lord our God, by no means are they all His children, especially all who by freely made choices have rejected Jesus Christ and thereby placed themselves under the control and influence of demonic powers and principalities. Of these there are today Luciferian and Satanic Globalist elitists and their American water-carriers, Progressive Liberal and Democratic cultural elitists.

A former Israeli space security chief has sent eyebrows shooting heavenward by saying that earthlings have been in contact with extraterrestrials from a "galactic federation." "The Unidentified Flying Objects have asked not to publish that they are here, humanity is not ready yet," Haim Eshed, former head of Israel's Defense Ministry's space directorate, told Israel's Yediot Aharonot newspaper. The interview in Hebrew ran on Friday, and gained traction after parts were published in English by the Jerusalem Post on Tuesday. A respected professor and retired general, Eshed said the aliens were equally curious about humanity and were seeking to understand...

The world’s leading psychiatric authority on demonic possession delves into the hidden world of exorcisms and his own transformation from cynic to believer over the course of his twenty-five-year career. Successful New York psychiatrist Richard Gallagher was skeptical yet intrigued when a hard-nosed, no-nonsense Catholic priest asked him to examine a woman for a possible exorcism. Meeting her, Gallagher was astonished. The woman’s behavior defied logic. In an instant, she could pinpoint a person’s secret weaknesses. She knew how individuals she’d never known had died, including Gallagher’s own mother, who passed away after a lengthy battle with ovarian cancer. She...

Is it true that leaders of the BLM movement, including one of the co-founders, are calling on the spirits of the dead? That they claim to receive spiritual power from the deceased? That they talk with these spirits and even give them names? The answer to all these questions is yes. This is now an open secret.Lest you think that this type of “spirituality” is exceedingly rare, I remind you that in October, 2019, the New York Times ran a story titled, “When Did Everybody Become a Witch?” The article claimed that, “We have reached peak witch,” noting that, “Real...

A British woman who claims to have had sex with over 20 ghosts has finally found love. Amethyst Realm, 30, announced this week that after much deliberation over the look and size of a ring, she is now engaged to a spirit named Ray. Back in December, Realm told the British talk show “This Morning” that she had stopped having sex with real, living men since she preferred ghosts instead.

At an appearance in San Francisco last week, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D.-Calif.) repeated her story that the spirits of women’s rights activists Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Lucretia Mott, Alice Paul and Sojourner Truth squeezed into her chair—and then spoke to her—the first time she went to a meeting at the White House after being elected House Minority Leader. When she was elected to that post on Nov. 14, 2002, Pelosi became the first woman in U.S. history to become the leader of either party in the House or Senate. “I sit down and as he [President...

I told you Nancy Pelosi belongs in a mental institution and she has definitely proved it now. She told a recent gathering of the Women’s Political Committtee that spirits of Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth cady Stanton and Alice Paul spoke to her at the White House. Seriously, I’m not kidding. She said she heard them say, “At last we have a seat at the table.” Pelosi tells the women, “He’s (Bush) saying something to the effect of we’re so glad to welcome you here, congratulations and I know you’ll probably have some different things to say about what is going...

"The way of all peace is to scale the mountain of Self. Loving others makes the climb down easier. We see all things darkly until love lights the lamp of the Soul."The above words form the first tenet of Novus Spiritus. Within them lies the basic philosophy of the Society, namely: Life is a long journey of discovery, wherein each person must meet - and love - themselves, overcome their own fears, and learn the truth about loving. It is a process of perfecting the innate, God-given beauty of the Soul.   A B O U T   S Y L V I A   B R O W N E ,   F O U N D E R  In April 1986, Sylvia...

An elderly Danish couple walked into Santa Cruz’s Venus Spirits tasting room recently to say thank you. They had been given a bottle of distiller Sean Venus’ new spirit — the caraway-forward Scandinavian bone-warmer called aquavit, a clear spirit infused with botanicals — and wanted to thank him for bringing a bit of Nordic drinking culture to the Bay Area. Skoal, indeed. Five years ago, there were only four aquavits produced in the United States and none in California. But, as Venus explained to the couple, a curiosity for niche spirits drew him to aquavit’s smooth, savory character. “Honestly, it’s...

It’s a smart-looking book, and I enjoyed it. So how’s the weather in Minnesota? Adam McDowell: It’s lovely, there are Canadian flags everywhere, people being very polite to each other. Kosar: Wait…. you’re a Canadian? In Canada? McDowell: Yes, born and raised in Toronto. Kosar: Why? McDowell: I’ve never had a doctor’s bill in my life. That’s explanation enough. Kosar: As a Canadian, I trust you consume barbarous quantities of drinks like Yukon Jack, Canadian Club,...

Lately, Chavez declared himself a member of a charismatic congregation, thus allegedly belonging to his country's fastest-growing branch of Christianity. But then he angered the country's National Catholic Bishops Conference by communing at a Mass organized by a priest of pro-Communist leanings. Should you have any doubt that Venezuela's President Hugo Chavez is in serious decline, consider this: His bust is being removed from the altars of his country's popular religion, a renowned anthropologist told United Press International on Monday. Less than four years ago, the syncretistic Maria Lionza cult celebrated Chavez as the reincarnation of Simon Bolivar, (1783-1830),...

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton revealed that she believes in “spirits,” even though she is not sure about the existence of ghosts or aliens. “Do you believe in ghosts?” one of the hosts of The Breakfast Club radio show in New York asked during an interview. “I believe in spirits,” Clinton replied. When another host mocked the question, Clinton replied, “You don’t?” Clinton’s fascination with the spiritual realm was well known during her time in the White House as First lady. Author Bob Woodward reported in the 1990’s that Hillary Clinton held “seance” conversations with Eleanor Roosevelt and Gandhi...
