Quite frankly, anyone can make such assertions, and a team of spiritual directors steeped in the Kasper style of theology, for instance, would lend zero credence to this person's claims.
Once again, quoting from his website: "Well, I don’t doubt that spiritual beings can take different physical forms when visiting us. With me, however, Gabriel has always appeared as a fairly tall, lanky man – almost awkwardly lanky. He has nut-brown hair that he often wears in absurd styles…but I guess they have different styles in heaven than we do here. When I tease him about it he just gives me a crooked grin. People ask me if he appears with wings. No, but, once when he was very briefly angry with me, he swelled up in a most intimidating fashion. While I don’t recall seeing wings, I felt them in a strange way…but then I was very focused on his rare displeasure with me." http://charliej373.wordpress.com/about/
One who considers such tripe evidence of a "genuine gift of the Spirit" would be wise to revisit God's Word without delay:
"For there shall arise false Christs and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders, insomuch as to deceive (if possible) even the elect."
"And no wonder: for Satan himself transformeth himself into an angel of light."
We need to pray for discernment, although in the case of the writer in question, his bizarre statements clearly speak for themselves.
In other words, he is a nut-bar.
mmmkay.
We need to pray for discernment..

I have to doubt that you have done so given your immediate rejection of the possibility of Mr. Johnson’s gift. What he has written gives NO indication at all that he follows the thinking of Cardinal Kasper or any cleric who would flirt with serious changes. As a matter of fact, he fully supports all doctrine taught by the Church. I have also noted that he supports many of the good bishops and Cardinals that I admire and pray for....precisely because they pursue holiness and give good and wise care to their flock.
Over the last week I have written vigorously in defense of the orthodoxy of Pope Francis and Cardinal Dolan
That's all I need to know about Mr. Johnson.
