Orders are coming now for my chosen ones that have been waiting for the timing of my will . The sweeping of the penduluum's timing is poised before my throne as a gravitational pull holds you to earth , so the hearts of my children are laid before me and as no other time before my humble servants are about to enter into an opened door revealed only to the few( obedient) , the Chosen(overcomers) and this door is an entryway into not only the all of me but the paradise of my love abiding ,eternal , flowing yet existing in a dimension of reality of my kingdom to the obedient alone .
For truly this is the greatness opened to who I am in a manifold manner and mannah(word) of true revelatory power and kingdom of overcomers "free" to those deserving through the sacrifice of my ways " Obedience !"
Now IS the time "watch" as the penduluum cavitates before you and climb aboard for it is my chariot of fire I have brought down to you from heaven as Elijah .
Receive and believe for truly all you are about to see and experience is of me and me alone ! \o/
So . . . how long have you been a Jim Jones fan? Or is it an obsession?

Never a Jim Jones fan, though I did do a term paper about him in College. It makes it easier today for me to recognize frauds and charlatans who take advantage of the weak minded and desperately needy.
People who follow flakes tend to be the lonely type or mentally ill people who think that God is talking to them or through them. These glassy-eyed followers will defend their leader no matter how obviously evil the leader is.
Some of these poor, pathetic, weak people want to believe that they are special too, some of the followers even start to make the same claims as the leader, like they’re talking to or through God, “keeping up with the Jones’s” if you’ll excuse the pun.
Some followers seek out these types of leaders as regular religion isn’t filling their void in life, they need a God on earth, a living God or prophet that they can speak to, touch, and converse with. These people think they are the special and the most holy because instead of just going to Church and practicing their religion like normal folks they are the CHOSEN. It must be destiny that I came in contact with this living God or prophet.
These followers become rabid and loyal to their new God or prophet. They will say if you don’t believe in their leader or prophet that you don’t believe in God, or that you don’t believe in prophecy.
Mostly, the followers are just the weakest links in society, the most gullible. People that the more fantastic the claim of the leader of the group, the more likely they will believe. By making outrageous claims, the leader assures that most all who follow him will only be the most easily manipulated suckers on the planet. As more follow, the leader becomes more brazen, comparing himself or welcoming comparisons of him to Christ.
No matter how outrageous the claims of the leaders, there will always be a supply of mentally ill or weak-minded people who will believe the leader has special powers. Lonely, vulnerable people looking for meaning in their life. People who always believed they were special but somehow their life is just ordinary, so they build fantasy lives where they are on the “inside” receiving secret and special knowledge that no one else is privileged to or could even understand.
These weak, lonely, damaged people are prey to the leader and his cult. Someone who was a nerd or a loser all his life is now suddenly on the forefront of the great spiritual war, or in tight with the living breathing second coming of the Lord. Instead of at the bottom, the follower is now at the top, he speaks to the Lord, he dines with the Lord.
I hope that answers your questions about Jim Jones.
God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.

Orders are coming now for J-d’s chosen ones that have been waiting for the timing of J-d’s will . The sweeping of the penduluum’s timing is poised before J-d’s throne as a gravitational pull holds you to earth , so the hearts of J-d’s children are laid before J-d and as no other time before J-d’s humble servants are about to enter into an opened door revealed only to the few( obedient) , the Chosen(overcomers) and this door is an entryway into not only the all of J-d but the paradise of my love abiding ,eternal , flowing yet existing in a dimension of reality of my kingdom to the obedient alone .
For truly this is the greatness opened to who J-d is, in a manifold manner and mannah(word) of true revelatory power and kingdom of overcomers “free” to those deserving through the sacrifice of J-d’s ways “ Obedience !”
Now IS the time “watch” as the penduluum cavitates before you and climb aboard for it is J-d’s chariot of fire J-d has brought down to you from heaven as Elijah .
Receive and believe for truly all you are about to see and experience is of me and me alone ! \o/
Sounds like you learned some true things about Jones et al.
Too bad the assumptions following are so flawed.
Whoops!
Last line should read:
Receive and believe for truly all you are about to see and experience is of J-d and J-d alone ! \o/
I have said it before and I now say it again: This is nothing more than a rehashing of Gnostic belief...secret knowledge revealed only to “the chosen”...
Get over yourself.
So, how long have you disagreed with ALMIGHTY GOD IN Scripture?
. . . . particularly the one about
GOD DOES NOTHING WITHOUT FIRST INFORMING HIS PROPHETS?
—AMOS 3:7
*******************
LOL! So it seems.
It is rather interesting that you cite Amos 3:7 as your prooftext for wanting to believe this Jedediah character. This happens to be the same Scripture used by the charlatan “prophet” Bishop Jordan. He peddles prophecies for profits. He uses Scripture out of context (as all false prophets are apt to do) in order to achieve wealth, fame or some other form of attention.
The Bible says that God is not mocked. This Jedediah character is clearly attempting to make of mockery of the Sovereign God by presenting Him as a rambling, non-sensical God Who, although capable of speaking the world into existence, cannot even summon the power to master English grammar.
Please remove your emotions from the argument and test Jedediah’s “prophecies” against those found in the Bible.
Where do we find the biblical prophets speaking in generalities? True prophets of God spoke with specificity.
Where do we find the biblical prophets enjoying the attention received from their words? True prophets of God were burdened by their mission. They understood the seriousness of God.
One of two things is happening with regards to this man:
1. He has deluded himself to such an extent that he actually believes he is receiving a word from God.
2. He knows he is no prophet and is simply seeking attention.
In either case, this Jedediah is no prophet of God.
ROFL!!!!
But I am suggesting that in some respects this is like a "game," (in the Transactional Analysis sense) and that maybe what is intended to be negative feedback is received as positive feedback.
Christ said before the so called New Testament was ever penned Mark 13:23 But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.
And Amos 8:11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that *I* will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD;
Bingo.
***Dont you think God speaks through His children?***
The problem is not God; it is the certifiable lunatics that you are buddying up with.
***He speaks through ordinary Christian people all the time.***
The folks that you are snuggling up to are demonstrably not ordinary and not Christian.
***They may not be prophets but they have a gift of the word of knowledge or wisdom.***
They have the gift of insanity.
***The gifts are still in operation, you know.***
Not with this bunch.
