On this passionate conclusion to Counterfeit Christianity, Dr. Luauna Stines delivers a fiery message about spiritual deception, false religion, and the urgent need for believers to stand firm in biblical truth. Teaching from Romans, Thessalonians, and the Gospels, she challenges Christians to reject watered-down faith, embrace the power of the Holy Spirit, and remember that the true church carries authority through Jesus Christ. Through personal testimony, stories of deliverance, healing, and transformation, Dr. Luauna reminds listeners that God is still calling people out of darkness and into freedom, purpose, and revival.
SPEAKER 02 :
welcome to a touch from above with dr Luauna Stines from the prayer mountain in ramona california today’s program is the conclusion of counterfeit christianity today’s message is especially relevant as dr Luauna will be sharing god’s warning for those whose hearts have grown distant as well as a caution to anyone who has altered the message of the gospel jesus assures us that he will give us the strength to endure until the very end God’s plan for his church is truly amazing. So don’t lose hope or surrender to the pressures of this world. Stand firm in the truth and don’t accept a lie in its place. Cling to the promises found in God’s incredible word. And now, here’s our host, Dr. Luauna Stines.
SPEAKER 04 :
When we went down to the Balboa Park to preach at the gay parade, my heart was so broken because you saw all these people and there was so much brokenness out there. There was a strong delusion. Let me read to you out of Romans real quick. He says here, therefore, I’m reading out of Romans chapter one. Reading in verse 24, therefore God gave them up to uncleanliness in the lust of their hearts to dishonor their bodies among themselves who exchanged the truth of God for the lie. And they worship and they serve the creature rather than the creator who is blessed forever. For this reason God gave them up to the vile passions for even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise, also the men leaving the natural use of the woman burned in their lust for one another. men with men committing what is shameful and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased, which also is a delusion, debased mind to do those things which are not fitting. Being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness, full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness. They are whispers, back biters, haters of God, violent, proud, boastful, inventor of evil things, disobedient to parents, undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful, who knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same, but also approve of those who practice them. Therefore, you are inexcusable, O man, whoever you are. I mean, and he goes on. Let me stop there for a moment. Jesus said that in the last days, men will become lovers of themselves. You see, you have to be careful that we are the bride of Christ for Christ. We cannot be a lover of ourself or we become our own God. We become our own gods. We can’t do that. We have got to serve God. You know, I’m a willing slave unto Jesus. I’ve been a willing slave by God’s grace for 47 years. The day that I got saved, I’ll never forget that day that I walked into that little teeny church in Colorado Springs, Colorado. 1898, old Victorian church with red, ruby red, blood red carpet. And I remember going down to an altar and by the altar there was a heater vent and there was no other room but the heater vent. The stair was here and the heater vent was there. They said, let’s pray. And I got on my knees and the heater vent was blowing up my hair. It’s like, man, how do I shut that vent off? But some little redhead girl, country girl named Mary Clock, I’ll never forget her. Strange, funny accent, red hair and freckles. Can I lead you in a prayer? I said, I don’t know how to pray. I’d never been to church. My whole life I’d never been to church. I said, I don’t know how to pray. She goes, that’s no problem. I’ll help you pray. Let’s get on our knees. She led me in one of the most easiest, simplest, I know I’m a sinner. Forgive me of my sins. Come into my heart and be my Lord and Savior. Amen. Oh, I forgot. This day I submit my heart to you, Jesus. That was it. 47 years ago, my whole life changed. My whole heart changed. I went home, threw the booze away, got rid of my cigarettes. I used to smoke like a choo-choo train. I don’t know why God didn’t put a chimney on some of us. I went home and said, oh, my goodness. I took out the carton of cigarettes. And I didn’t know cigarettes. My sister still smokes. I told her, God should have put a chimney on you. I need to pray for you. Took the cigarettes, packed them, went crunch, put them on the refrigerator. Took the other ones and threw them away. Took the booze out and threw it away. Sorry, but I went and got the cocaine and threw it away. I said, I better get rid of all this stuff. And I said, now what do I do? They said, be here every time the doors open. Do you know, I was there the next service, the next service, the next service, the next service, the next service, the next service for over 13 years before I went and pioneered my first church. You see, you have to be careful not to exchange the truth of God for a lie. You can’t have counterfeit Christianity. How many of you met counterfeit Christians? Do you know what I mean by counterfeit Christians? Those that say they’re saved and you look at them and you go, boy, if you’re saved, oh boy, I’m a saint. I must have wings or something because there’s something wrong here. God has called us to be strong. I like God’s word, it’s so powerful. He says, put on the whole armor of God, all of it. Why did he tell us to wear armor? Because there’s a battle that rages all around us and you can’t see it. The battle of unbelief. So you put the helmet on, why? So the fiery darts of unbelief that come to hit your head, the fiery darts of lust, They have to come off. The fiery darts of fear have to come off. The fiery darts of whatever. How am I going to make it? Insecurity, fear, bad report. It doesn’t matter what they are. You put the shield of faith on. Why? The shield of faith. You put the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation. Why did he have the shield? Do you notice that there’s nothing for the back? You ever thought about that? Because you don’t go to battle with your rear end. You go to battle frontwards. You press on. Philippians says you press on towards the mark of the prize of the upward call of Christ Jesus, our Lord and Savior. You don’t go back. You don’t go back in the kingdom of God. You go forward, the cross before me, the world behind me. I’m going forward in Jesus. I allow the Holy Spirit to change me from the inside out. Amen? There’s a transformation that happens. You see, God wants to use every single one of you for his glory. Every single one of you has a story of unbelievable miracle of God’s grace. The Bible says they took the land by the power of the blood of the lamb and the power of their testimony. Do you realize how many people call when we put one of your testimonies on the radio? Do you understand when Daniel went on the radio and Daniel’s sharing his testimony delivered from drugs and gang violence? When we had Carmen come on the radio, we had calls come in from Florida. Why? Because her husband, after 30 some years of marriage, violated her marriage in ministry, broke her heart to She lost her first son, lost her second son. You don’t think that’s a story that people need to hear? People called. I heard Carmen’s story. My heart needs a miracle. Please pray for me. I need a miracle of God’s grace. I’m struggling with alcohol. I don’t want to be bound in this. You don’t think those stories? When Pastor Jill got on radio and shared about her life, both of her parents were alcoholics. Her brother was an alcoholic. Her other brother was an alcoholic. Because she got saved, we went back, shared the gospel. Her brother today is a preacher. What a miracle. What a miracle. You see, your story is for God’s glory. You don’t think that we got calls. We had to send out, I think, seven or eight of Charlie’s books delivered from homosexuality. 30 years bound by homosexuality. Lived a lie. He exchanged the truth of God for a lie. But now he’s saved. He loves God. He worships God. He praises God. You don’t think our stories are for God’s glory? Mary, her story went on radio. The calls that came in. 30 years bound by the lies of lesbianism. so wrapped up in the delusion of lies that they even made her a lesbian pastor. But she said, I was delivered. God delivered me. He set me free. Her story is powerful. Yes, people, some get offended, but some, they call and say, oh my gosh, I need deliverance. I need some help. I need freedom. I’m waiting for Vicki and Danny to come on radio. Because you know what, their story’s powerful. This precious lady that was sitting here, she had to leave because you know what, she had an appointment. But you know what, her lie of cancer in her lungs, she has fought it and fought it and fought it. And little by little that cancer is shrinking and shrinking. You don’t think Danny’s fighting for his life? Vicki’s fighting with her, you know, her own, their struggle between the entire change. You’ve got to remember, she’s married to a man who’s built all of this, built the prayer mountain, worked hard, and now she has to struggle, and now she has to fight. And now the question, what do we do? Where do we go? What does God have planned? God has a good plan. God is working all things to his good. Why? Because no matter what we struggle with, Greater is the God who dwells within us than he that’s in the world. And we are more than conquerors through him who strengthens him. And our God is able to do all things exceedingly abundantly above all that we can even begin to think or ask. Amen. Amen. Nothing, nothing, nothing shall befall us. Yes, we may be like Job. Yes, we may feel like it’s all falling apart. Yes, we’re trying to figure out how it’s going to work. But God has a bigger plan. Who would have ever thought from a murdered husband, from a broken life, a woman who was looking for love in all the wrong places would one day be a preacher? Who but God could do that? Who but God? We’d be building a prayer mountain. Who but God? People say, how did you get 25 acres in San Diego? Who but God? Only God. How could you be on radio? Only God. Only God. How could you be the author of any books? Don’t ask me. I was the worst English student in the whole wide world. Thank God for spell check. I still can’t spell, but I’m the author of four books. Don’t ask me. It’s only but God. Amen. Only God. God is with us. He is with us. If we just like the woman. Remember the woman? How many years did she have that sickness with the blood disease? How many years? Was it 18? Was it 12? 12 years. She was in this vast crowd. You’ve got to remember in those days, she had an issue of blood. Do you know what that meant in the Jewish custom? She was unclean. She had to shout, unclean, unclean, so nobody could get near her. So did the leopards, unclean. They came into town, unclean, unclean. Terrible, isn’t that? Here is this woman who has this issue of blood for 12 years. She spent everything she had on every single doctor and she came no better. She hears about Jesus. She knows Jesus is there. She hears that he’s the healer. She hears that he made the blind to see, the lame to walk. She knows that he raises the dead. She said, if I… can just touch even just the hem. I just want to touch the hem of his garment. If I can just touch the hem of his garment, I know I’ll be made well. Do you understand the words that she spoke? She spoke faith. Faith is a substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. And without faith, it’s impossible to please God. And those that come to him must believe that he is a rewarder of those that diligently seek him. Do you realize that in that vast crowd, she wasn’t yelling, unclean, she was speaking. Healed if I can just touch the hem of that garment. Healed. Do you understand the hem? Do you know how low she went to just touch the hem of his garment? She goes through that vast crowd. I mean, you can know it’s a vast crowd because guess what? After she touches the hem of his garment, you know what Jesus said? Who touched me? And you know what the disciples said? Lord, why do you ask that question? You see all these people thronging you. All these people are touching you. He goes, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. There was one person who touched me and power left from me. You see, you have to believe God for great things. You have to believe God that he is the healer. You have to believe God that you can live right and live clean. You have to believe God that he’s a rewarder. You gotta believe God that in your trial, All things will work together for his good to those that love God, those that trust God and are called according to his purpose. You’ve got to sometimes let go, and sometimes you’ve got to just reach and hold on to the hem of his garment. Let him drag you along, whether slow or fast. Just let him hold on, hold on, hold on, and don’t let go. And you know what? When you come out on the other side… Give God all glory and honor. Amen? You know, great is your reward, Carmen. You know, God really spoke to me about you. That you’re a great, great woman of faith. You’ve struggled through your family. You’ve struggled through your kids. And God has seen your faithfulness. You stepped in the gap to take care of your grandchildren. And God honors that. And your grandchildren, you know what, are powerful men of God because you stepped in. And you said, you know what, I’ll take that job and I’ll raise them. And God is going to reward you for your labor. You’re going to see your reward. And you’re going to speak to people. You’re going to speak to people. And God’s going to use you as a powerful leader. I don’t know if it’s here. God’s going to use you. He may use you here. But God’s going to use you to pour into other women that are doing the exact same thing. But they’re struggling. They’re hurting. They’re angry. But you know what? You’re going to bring hope into their lives. Amen? Our God is a good God. Our God is a good God. Our God is a good God. Abigail. God is a good God. God saw the faithfulness of Abigail. God saw her wisdom and knowledge and understanding. And God blessed her. Amen? God’s going to bless you. Amen? Our God is a good God. Ms. Sedna, God is going to lift the burden. He’s going to lift it off of you. He said for you not to carry it. He’s going to lift it, and he’s going to let you breathe just that peace. He’s going to bring that comfort in these latter days, and that peace from God is going to be there like you’ve never had it in Jesus’ name. You’re going to say, Lord, thank you. I trust you. I trust you for my sons. I trust you for my daughters. I trust you for my daughter-in-law. I trust you for everything that you’re doing. You got it all planned out. I don’t understand it, but I just let go of it. And it’s all yours. You take it and you watch God. He’s going to lift it off of you in Jesus name. Amen. Amen. Amen. Give the Lord a great big shout. Amen. The church is powerful. Let’s be the church. Let’s love one another. Let’s not be under a delusion. Let’s encourage one another. When your heart is hit, don’t quit. We miss Scott today. We miss Lisa today. We miss Mr. Bill today and those that are gone, but they’ll be back. They’re just out for a little bit visiting daughters and vacation, but they’ll be back. Amen. We’re praying continually for Miss Lee, for her complete healing. We’re trusting God for Lynn Flores. You know what? She is a good, good woman of God. Amen. Maybe you’re here today, every head bowed, every eye closed, just for a moment. Maybe you’re struggled and you need to come back with God 100%. People have hurt you, people have said things, people have broken your heart. I don’t want to say welcome to the ministry, but let’s face it, it’s not always easy. But maybe God wants to do something new in your heart, and that’s you. Lift your hand up. Lift your hand up if that’s you. You need to be saved. You need to be born again. God sees that honest heart. God sees that honest heart. God sees that honest heart. Put your hand down. Put your hand down. There’s others here. You need something more inside. You need that deep relationship with God. Put your hand up. Put it back down. God sees that honest heart. God sees that honest heart. God sees that honest heart. God sees that honest heart. God sees that honest heart. Oh, just struggle, I promise you. God sees that honest heart. There’s others here. You’re not saved. You’re not born again. But you know you need to. You know you need to just make it right to run for Jesus. Amen? God sees that. While every head is bowed and all those that lifted your hands, and let’s all of us together, let’s say that prayer together. All right, repeat after me. Jesus, I’m struggling. I’m sorry. I’ve had doubt. I’ve had fear. Please forgive me. Help me. Lord, I want a renewed walk. I want to run for you. I want to do something for you. Help me to serve with a pure heart. Help me to love you with a pure heart. Help me to obey your word. This day, in Jesus’ name, I surrender my all to you. Take my life and use it for your glory, not my own. Wash me. Tell him, wash me in your precious blood and forgive me of all my sins. In Jesus’ name, amen. Amen? Amen. Amen. Amen. I want to encourage you today that you have a Bible. And the best place to start, I know everybody said always the book of John, but really I like the book of Luke. It kind of gives you the beginning. Go into the book of Luke and start, or join our morning reading. Where are we at today, Marshall? Second Kings. We’re in Second Kings. Chapter 14 on Tuesday. And if you want to know how, that’s 6.30, 6.30 a.m., Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday. By the end of the year, we go through the entire Bible. And so we read and pray and go through the Bible. So if you say, I can’t read it, you don’t have to worry about it. I read it for you. I love to read God’s Word. And you know what? And I go into a little bit the grammar, the history, and I begin to teach you a little bit about it at the same time. So word up, everybody. Somebody say, word up. Word up. Oh, that’s a weak one. Say word up. James 3. Just say word up. Just say word up. Oh, word up. She’s ready to say a scripture. Say word up. Word up. Say word up. Word up. Word up. Get zoned up for the word. Word up. Word up. Word up, Mark. Say word up.
SPEAKER 03 :
Word up.
SPEAKER 04 :
Word up. Isaiah chapter 53. He was bruised for our iniquities, for our chastisement. Our peace was laid upon him. For what? For your healing. And by his stripes. I want everybody to stretch your hands this way. This man is struggling. He’s been assaulted by the enemy. I have my anointing oil right here. Everybody stretch their hands towards him. And we’re going to pray. We’re going to pray. We’re going to pray. Do you believe God to heal you? I do too. Put out your hands. Father, you’re the healer. Father, you’re the healer. Father, look at these hands. His skin is struggling. His body is struggling from the inside. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, we speak healing over this body. Father, because your word says by your stripes, Mark is healed in Jesus’ name. We curse the spirit of infirmity. We bind it up in Jesus’ name. We speak life over this body. From the top of his head to the tip of his toes, we speak life. I command this skin to be completely healed in Jesus’ name. Father, heal the system inside. Heal this body in Jesus’ name. Heal the liver, every part, the system inside. In Jesus’ name. Healing in Jesus’ name. I break that demonic spirit of infirmity. I bind witchcraft from his life in Jesus’ name. I bind every word and every yoke that is heavy over him. Every word spoken over this man, I rebuke and bind up in Jesus’ name. We’ll loose the power of the blood of Jesus. Amen. Father, fill him with the Holy Ghost. Fill him with the Holy Ghost and power. Fill him with your anointing, Lord God. Give him his prayer language, Lord God. Hallelujah. After service, Marshall, I would like for you and Tom and Carmen, I’d like for you to pray for him. Charlie, also after service, pray for him to get his prayer language. Daniel, I want you to lay hands on him to get his prayer language. Amen? The Bible says in the book of Acts chapter 1 verse 8, you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you. There’s a power that Jesus promised you and I, and that’s that Holy Ghost power, that prayer language. I know it sounds really bizarre, and you know a lot of churches are preaching against it, and it really saddens me because it’s all through Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, and the God has given us a promise. In Luke chapter 24, he said, They were all in one place, one accord. Suddenly there was a sound from heaven that came down upon them like this mighty rushing wind, and it filled the whole house where they were, and they were all… filled with the Holy Spirit. Acts chapter, I think it’s 10, the Apostle Paul greets a group of Christians and disciples. This is 10 years after Pentecost. He says, have you received the Holy Spirit since you believed? They said, we haven’t even heard there was a Holy Spirit. And Paul asked them then, how then were you baptized? He said, well, we were baptized under John, the baptizer. And Paul said, you know what? You need the Holy Spirit. And Paul laid hands on them and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and begin to speak with other tongues. Why do you speak in another tongue? I’ll tell you why. Why do two Spanish people, hola, como estas? Que estas haciendo? They talk in Spanish. Why do two Korean people, 안녕하세요, 감사합니다, 아시니까 하나님. Why do they speak? They speak in a language that’s understood. Why did God give us a special language? He gave us a special language so that our spirit man can speak straight to heaven. And our spirit man, it says what? Corinthians chapter 2, my eyes have not seen, my ears have not heard, neither has it entered into the heart of man the things that God has prepared for those that love him and trust him. The next verse, verse 10, but it is revealed through his Spirit, capital S. You see, the Holy Spirit speaks the mysteries of God directly to our heart. Amen.
