Who is going to save Britain?
Who is going to save Britain? - With the majority of whites on their way to hell - Black and Asian Churches are booming!
Rev. David P. Griffiths reporting:
Revival News is now available to billions on the internet and viewed by thousands. We praise God for this huge outlet for the Word of God to be ministered and preached. God gave me a warning, however, not to proclaim our ministry first - but to proclaim His precious King James Authorised Word as the number one priority - then give opportunity for those in the third world to share what God is doing through them. We have experienced at first hand the suffering the persecuted Church has endured but through this suffering has come a dynamic Church, a Church free from the god of materialism, a Church that has come to accept signs and wonders as a confirmation of God's Word. Oh for this reliance to manifest in Britain! Oh for this surrender to reach the white population of Britain once more, a manifestation of the heart that took my father to Africa in the 1930's! White Britain is now a mission field in itself - its people bound  by over-regulation and fear - with corrupt leaders passing unconstitutional laws jailing those making a stand against abortion rather than jailing those who are involved day by day in breaking the Hippocratic Oath in producing a slaughter of innocents Herod himself would not have dreamed about.
A reaping to the sowing of the glorious British Church of the 1930's is going on. The fruits of the 1930's (and earlier) is being
seen particularly in London. In huge numbers Afro Caribbean and Asian people have turned from their idols to worship the one true God
and within the countries of their forefathers great revival is being seen today as we celebrate the launching of the SONS OF
GOD NETWORK - of ministries that understand that God is our provider - and that we as sons of God are JOINT HEIRS WITH
CHRIST JESUS - that is equal with HIM before the father; I John 4:17; Romans 8. Gone is the religious god who is far away and
manifesting are the Sons Of God - the manifestation of God himself on the earth, manifesting himself through surrendered individuals
who no longer promote the "I", the self interest but who have through a period of suffering moved into being the manifestation of
Christ Jesus Himself.
Gal. 2:20 I am crucified
with Christ: neverthless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the
flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
I John 4:17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have
boldness in the Day of Judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.
Is there the heart amongst the great Black and Asian churches in London to reach out into white areas of Britain, white areas
rejecting the glorious, powerful Gospel of Christ Jesus, white areas intent on pandering to the lusts of the world rather than
surrendering to the Glory of God? Could it be that God has given us the 100 fold return of African and Asian brothers to our nation as
a blessing so great, as a blessing so great that this is the reaping of the sowing of those who left these shores early in the 20th
century and before? I believe it! I Believe God has brought our African and Asian fellow sons in this land to save our nation. I
believe the suffering fellow sons in their homelands are going to be mightily blessed too. I have a mandate to stir up the anointing in
our African and Asian fellow sons to move out of the insular London situation - into the new white mission field - of white people
worshipping the idols of the devil, of a white Church bound with intellectualism and pride, of a white Church so devoid of love
because of the hurts of the past!
Thus saith the Lord. I have called you my children out of the land from which I have blessed you. To reach mightily with the outstretched arms of faith - to pull down the idols of the white man - to pull down the strongholds of intellectualism and pride, to go and demonstrate the power which I given unto you preaching my word which I confirm with signs and wonders. The white man of Britain is on its knees with the wiles of the devil and I have called you my children to lift white man up into the loving arms of Jesus, you being called to reach out to the white man - that I have not forgotten. Remove the intellectualism and pride. Smash up the strongholds of Satan and bring white man unto yourselves in my name JESUS!
 Hallelujah! Oh! Hallelujah! These are the days of Elijah! This is the day that the Lord hath made - we will rejoice and be glad in it and my dear brother Bishop Carlton Morgan of whom I met recently in London (Grace International Miracle Ministries www.graceimm.org.uk/ioutreach.html) - he must have thought I was languishing in doubt and unbelief. The white man does not respond to door to door approaches. The white man abuses street preachers and personal evangelists. If they see the power of God they run! One such person when we were ministering in Mold used to run out of the room when the power of God manifest! This has been our experience - of rejection and frustration - but God is bringing a mighty army to save the white man, an army so great that the gates of hell are quivering at the very thought of this great reaping of the sowing of the 1930's British Church. God is restoring the missions focus - God is restoring the missions focus so once more our land will be a land of missionary fire! Oh! For a thousand tongues to sing - our great Redeemer's Praise! I can breathe it! I can believe it! The day of the Lord is here!
A Mighty Army!

Beware of the Pharisees!
In Britain - there is a spirit of respectability looking to lure ministries into its Antichrist structures so as to bring an apparent order to things. Those not a part of these structures are isolated to the extreme, and so isolated to the extreme that ridiculous and far fetched stories about the Elijah style ministries are told. We have experienced this in Cheshire and we see this process happening now in Stoke on Trent. However, we are now moving into position to expose the activity of the new Pharisees - of their lure into spirit filled churches to make them numb from the core! I tell you - this is real - and a mountain that has to be addressed - a mountain we have the victory over in the glorious NAME OF CHRIST JESUS! WITHIN THIS PART OF Revival News I am exposing the antichrist spirit that has infiltrated into the main Pentecostal denominations and is now looking to infiltrate the new apostolic networks. The spirit of Eli is looking to move in to pull down the anointings of Zadok.
The Pentecostal denominations of Britain are dominated by the intellectual anti-Christ that primitive Pentecostals need to take notice that the movement your forefathers sacrificed for are being taken away from you! - a comment that in the past has brought rejection towards us - but now is being proven time after time again. I was told by God to refuse the Manchester University Degree in Theology and Christian Ministry offered through Elim Bible College. God said this would affect the anointing. God said this was a degree of the flesh and the Assemblies of God themselves in their Redemption Tidings of 1924 warned about the attack of the Higher Criticism of Germany coming through Manchester University. The Assemblies of God (when the movement was one of the Holy Ghost, a movement so powerful, a movement described by Dr. Roy Harthern as a free flowing movement) magazine described the Manchester University approach as being one of the raising of the swelled head of the Higher Criticism of Germany. Within this blasphemy comes a questioning of the very Word of God our forefathers died for, an approach pioneered by Professor Peake, Rylands Professor of Exegesis, University of Manchester.
The AOG 1924 article asked; Has the Church which harbours such a blasphemer any standard or rule of faith, or is it a creedless conglomeration of Nothingarians? Does, or did, this Professor receive his salary as a Teacher of Christianity or infidelity? Have born-again members in this community never read the New Testament exhortations contained in II Cor. 6:14-18, and Revelation 18:4,5. Whatever others may do, let us each remember that our responsibility is to "keep thyself pure" I Tim. 5:22. These same questions should now be directed to the intellectual Doctors of Theology of Higher Criticism now running the denominational Pentecostal ministry training centres.
II Cor. 6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
6:15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
6:16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
6:17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.
6:18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
Rev. 18 :4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
18:5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.
I Tim. 5:22 Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other men's sins: keep thyself pure.
I have to tell the Assemblies of God and Elim that you have allowed in the Antichrist movement from British Universities that has taken away the Blood bought Authorized Version of the Bible out of Churches (through Cambridge University's Westcott and Hort); you have allowed into Elim Bible College (now known as Regents Theological College) the very same University department - Rylands, Manchester that the AOG warned about in 1924. This infiltration has been allowed into a College pioneered by Authorized Version Foursquare Gospel Evangelist Principal George Jeffreys; and now AOG Pastors have now become part of the faculty of Bangor University - a secular University of the flesh, bringing flesh into a movement that was once anointed of the Holy Ghost. What decadence, what sin and no wonder doubt and unbelief dominates in what were once great Pentecostal denominations!
Who are these ministers? Pentecostal Pastors used to be crazy guys! Where are they today in the Pentecostal denominations? Replaced by degree bearing intellects playing hit and miss healing games with the scriptures praying over people that they might be healed rather than declaring to the devil that he was defeated two thousand years ago by the blood of Jesus Christ! YOU in the U.K. Pentecostal denominations HAVE SOLD YOUR BIRTHRIGHT AND REMOVED THE ANCIENT LANDMARK! The Elijah ministries must stand up and make their stand in restoring the landmark back to the Church. God will destroy this intellectual infiltration - GOD IS DESTROYING IT NOW AND THE REAL CHURCH IS GOING TO EMERGE.
PROVERBS 22:28 Remove not the ancient landmark, which thy fathers have set.
I Cor. 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us
which are saved it is the power of God.
1:19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing
the understanding of the prudent.
1:20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world?
hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
3:18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let
him become a fool, that he may be wise.
3:19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is
written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.
This is the infiltration - the questioning of the Word through the higher criticism technique and why God is bringing to the White Man of U.K. the reaping of the Blacks and Asians for they still believe the landmark truths of our 1930's fellow Sons of God - rather than the critical approach of the new Pentecostal Denominational leaders
Dr. David Petts, Honorary Departmental Fellow of Bangor University's Department of Theology and Religious Studies, Former Principal of A.O.G. Mattersey Hall Bible College 1977-2004; Present Chairman of the Board of Directors of Assemblies of God, Elected to the Presidum of the Pentecostal World Fellowship 2004, Life Emeritus Member of the Presidum of the Pentecostal European Fellowship.
What he wrote in the paper HEALING AND THE ATONEMENT - EPTA Bulletin, Journal of the European Pentecostal Theological Association Vol. XII 1993. 6 POINTS OF PETTS.
- Healing in the Atonement: Major NT texts on which the doctrine is based are Matthew 8:17 and I Peter 2:24
MATTHEW 8:17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our
infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.
I PETER 2:24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should
live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
- Certain introductory issues including Matthew's use of the OT and his understanding of fulfillment, his
purpose in recording in several places - Jesus healed all, his overall purpose in recording the miracles of Jesus.
- Matthew uses formula quotations -i.e. "that what was spoken by the prophet might be fulfilled." Ten such
"formula quotations" all of which appear to function as "asides" of the evangelist, not as part of his narrative, for if the
formula and the quotation were omitted the narrative would not be interrupted.
D.G. comment: Petts is calling the God breathed Word of God as having "formula quotations" that appear to function as "asides". This kind of approach one would not expect from a "Pentecostal" minister for it is similar to the approach of the JESUS NEVER EXISTED website www.jesusneverexisted.com/matthew.htm which declares similarly about Matthew under the heading "Fulfilling Prophecy":
On eleven occasions he introduces the formula "... this happened in order to fulfil what was said by the prophet ..." How better to convince fellow Jews that the god-man really had arrived, was in fact the chosen 'Jesus of Nazareth', than to show that his every word and deed had been presaged by the ancient Jewish oracles.
Matthew's task was to tease out new interpretations of the old scripture - wrenching his references completely out of context in fact - and juxtapositioning these 'quotations' with some pithy incident in the Jesus biography which he is fabricating. How can he get away with this duplicity? Because fortunately for 'Matthew' he was writing in Greek for a Greek-speaking audience, most of whom had no direct familiarity with Hebrew scripture but relied - if on any other source at all - on the Greek translation, the Septuagint. Matthew even misquotes freely from this secondhand source to serve his own purposes.
 Petts approach in declaring Matthew's narrative as having "asides" of the evangelist is identical in approach to the atheistic website quoted, rather than the traditional Pentecostal approach which declares all scripture is God - breathed written by writers who were not themselves. (Dr. Petts is pictured)
II Tim. 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
3:17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
GAL. 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: neverthless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
The Higher Criticism Approach emanating through Professor Peake of Manchester University (now controlling Elim's training) and others casts doubt on divine inspiration of the scriptures, an activity I can recognize fully through my time at Elim Bible College. The primitive denominational U.K. Pentecostal Pastor used to take the scripture at its word and cast out evil spirits on the basis that Christ Jesus had risen from the dead and that the O.T. prophecies had been fulfilled through Jesus. With the higher criticism approach of Petts, this does not seem possible as the fulfillment is an "aside" of the evangelist rather than the God breathed Word of God.
"It is well known that the primitive Christian Gospel was initially transmitted by word of mouth and that this oral tradition resulted in variant reporting of word and deed. It is equally true that when the Christian record was committed to writing it continued to be the subject of verbal variation, involuntary and intentional, at the hands of scribes and editors"
(Peake's Commentary on the Bible, p. 633).
This is the landmark of Manchester University's Theology Department, a landmark of doubt and unbelief, a landmark of the Anti-Christ, heresy and blasphemy and it is this landmark the U.K. Pentecostal denominations are under and it must be pulled down, Manchester University now being the ruling body over Elim Bible College's activities. We must restore the Jeffreys landmark back to this College in Jesus Mighty Name!
- Fulfilment - to enable Jewish Christians to present the Gospel to non-Christian Jews - the formula quotations should
probably be seen as just one aspect of such a presentation
- Rejects the view that Matthew 8:17 teaches healing is in the atonement, Matthew avoiding any suggestion that Jesus vicariously took sickness on himself going on to question the use of I Peter 2:24
D.G. comment: No wonder my Honours thesis was rejected by Elim Bible College with an insulting mark to the Word of the Lord. The thesis was presented as being an inspired work of the Lord but hitting this critical approach of the secular universities which A.O.G. and Elim are a part meant that my primitive Pentecostal approach was rejected.
A summary of Chapter 2 on the Atonement follows - a summary that proves beyond doubt that healing is in the atonement and that the Matthew 8:17 fulfillment passage is reliable and God given proof that Jesus has set us free, and that this verse can be used against demons (as a rhema) as a proof -text.
KEY POINTS FROM DAVID GRIFFITHS HONOURS THESIS - ELIM BIBLE COLLEGE 1996 - CHAPTER 2 - THE ATONEMENT
- Having established the origin of sickness and disease - it is essential to observe how the Old
Testament looks forward to the coming of the atoning Messiah.
- Faith Theology places great stress on Isa. 53; Matt. 8:17; I Peter 2:24.
- Faith teachers use these passages as proof texts - or promises to stand on.
- The association with the fall of man becomes clear as Jesus body has to change; Jesus becoming sin for
us rising again as the firstborn from the dead; II Cor. 5:21.
- Even under the law - healing was provided for; Lev. 14,15
- Isa. 53 looks forward to the death of Jesus Christ and what he was to die for.
- McCrossan - a Greek scholar states that the word griefs in Isa. 53:4 comes from the Hebrew
word kholee meaning sicknesses, the word having been used in Deut. 7:15 in the context of the Lord taking away all
sickness, the word being used again in Deut. 28:61; I Kings 17:17; II Kings 1:2; 8:8.
- Likewise - the word makob is the Hebrew word often translated sorrows but in Job
33:19 and Jer. 51:8 the word is translated pain. We therefore can use Isa. 53 and the fulfillment passage in Matthew 8 as
a proof text that Jesus took away sicknesses and pains.
- The great theologian Delitzsch relates sicknesses and sins in the passage as being plural; meaning
that Jesus took upon himself the sufferings humanity should have borne.
- Bosworth refers to the word surely being used in the Isa. 53 passage at the beginning of the sentence
in which there is a reference to Jesus taking sickness; Mc Crossan pointing out that the Septuagint used the Greek word iaomai for
healed in the passage - a word used 28 times for physical healing in the New Testament!
- McCrossan deals with Petts points beautifully in that accepting the fulfillment passage of Matthew
relates to a period three years before the Crucifixion. McCrossan establishes that the Matthew 8 passage refers to what Jesus was
to die for. Jesus was to die for all - not just a limited number of people in Jesus early day - but for all - for all time!
- In answer to Petts point of no direct reference of the Matthew passage applying Isa. 53 to Jesus
Passion - it can be stated that the Matthew account occurred after Jesus Baptism - the beginning of the fulfilling of all
righteousness; Matt. 3:13-17. A further perspective of McCrossan relating to Luke 4:21 which states; And he
began to say unto them, This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears. The word fulfilled in this context is
perfect passive, third singular of pleroo meaning I fulfill. This is shown to be the same word used by Matthew for
associating Isa. 53:4; 42:1-4; 61:1-2 to his fulfillment passages. There really is a call of God to repentance for the U.K.
Pentecostal denominations, to come back to the ancient scriptures our forefathers have stood upon, to move away from the new
paganised versions of scripture to the blood bought Word of God that declares he himself took our sickness and disease.
- Petts's apparent view of I Peter 2:24 is that the context of the passage does not relate to freedom
from sickness. Whilst accepting Peter's references to suffering in the Christian life, not on one occasion does Peter relate that
suffering to sickness for sickness had already been dealt with; I Peter 2:24.
- In supporting healing in the atonement, Kenyon points out that the word for death in Isa.
53:4-6 is plural in Hebrew denoting that there was to be two deaths by Jesus, spiritually the moment God laid our sin on him hence
the cry of Jesus of His God forsaking him for there was no sickness in the Garden of Eden before Adam died spiritually, the cure
for this being the blood of Jesus Christ.
- In his book Healing Rays Principal George Jeffreys - Elim's founder declared that through the
blood all things were reconciled to Himself, whether things on earth or things in heaven - spiritual and physical, Bosworth
pointing out that the bread is eaten in remembrance of his death for our bodies, the wine in remembrance of his death for our
souls; I Cor.11:25 - there being a biblical emphasis on the importance of discerning the Lord's body.
- Healing is indirectly in the Atonement as an earnest of future inheritance, an emphasis not only more acceptable theologically, but also from a pastoral and practical point of view.
D.G. comment: what about the Primitive Pentecostal approach of Wigglesworth - not being moved by what he sees, not being moved by what he feels and being moved by what he believes - THE WORD OF ALMIGHTY GOD. Since when were Pentecostals called to be accepted by the practical considerations of earthly living? Principal Jeffreys Biblically declared all things had already been reconciled to himself, the nonsense of last day teaching of the new body meaning our healing fulfilled is ridiculous because that new body will not have been sick and so could not be healed. There has to be repentance - NOW!
And now - the modern Pharisaic Anti-Christ spirit is out to infiltrate the new Apostolic networks - just as the Professor Peake spirit infiltrated the denominational Pentecostals.
Whited Sepulchres! - GET YOUR HANDS off us!
I received an E Mail from Bangor University Theology Department that includes Dr. Petts and another AOG minister - a Dr. Kay, the latter writing the E Mail through Anne Dyer, the E Mail showing interest in the future of the Apostolic Networks and their welfare, a welfare reminiscent of being placed with the lions of Nero's Roman Empire.
WATCH OUT FOR THIS MAN - He is Dr. Kay, AOG MINISTER and of Bangor University!
Dear Leaders at Life Changing Ministries
We are delighted to inform you of a forthcoming conference concerning the 'New Churches' or Apostolic networks of the past 40 years or so. This is a result of the investigation we made using surveys of some network leaders, interviews etc over the past three years into the history, development, ethos, theology and practices of these new churches.
Please find attached the registration form, or connect through the Mattersey Hall web site. You can also use this advert to invite other interested parties through your own email connections. Please do send it on.
<<...>> <<...>>
Trusting you will find it of interest for the future of the networks' welfare,
Yours sincerely
Anne pp Dr William K Kay.
It is clear that this department has had liaison with some Network leaders. I can only appeal to you to "come out from among them" for
you are dealing with an infiltration that is out to destroy as the Pharisees looked to end the ministry of Jesus.
The reply with the guilt trip!!!!!!!
How the Anti-Christ works - we are to get on with each other - rather than our unity with Christ Jesus first and through him we are one! John 17
Dear David
I am sorry to hear your reaction. Your Christian grace seems sadly insufficient to allow the God of creations' variety to display
his glory in a multitude of ways among the churches. We aim to show how God has blessed and encouraged the church through the new
networks of the past 40 years. EPTA also seeks to enhance understanding of that among those training for ministry in the
CHARISMATIC as well as Pentecostal scene!
You actually quote a hero of Pentecostalism on your web site- Smith Wigglesworth! So why are Pentecostals all brushed away with your tar brush?
You say "are not moved by earthly circumstances but develop a heart and a passion for souls".( www.sonsofgod.org.uk/about-us.html)
So am I or I wouldn't be working at a training college which develops that same heart of Jesus for the world in our students
May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ and the Love of God be with you revealing his purposes throughout his WHOLE church on earth- and He knows who that is! We simply trust His word and obey it to fulfill the Great Commission. This conference seeks to show people how God is doing that through multiple networks. No one network is the perfect means of fulfilling his purposes. Let us work together for His glory!
Yours in Jesus name!
Anne
Anne E Dyer (Mrs) BA MTh MPhil, Assistant to Dr W K Kay, Director of the Centre for Pentecostal & Charismatic Studies, University of Wales, Bangor.
AN APPEAL TO PENTECOSTAL APOSTOLIC LEADERS - Look at your birthright - look at your landmark and do not attend the Apostolic Networks Conference at AOG Mattersey Hall - November 15th 2006.
Conclusion
This has been quite an edition of Revival News getting right into line with what has happened in Britain. Do not be disheartened - the respectability spirit has taken over mainstream "churches" but God's remnant is rising up and restoring the Word of God to the nation - but we must pull down the strongholds of Satan that manifest through intellectualism, John Wesley himself warning of the dangers of mental assent - his apostolic ministry involving confrontation and discourse for do you think Jesus came to bring peace on earth - nay rather division - that division being between flesh and spirit.
LUKE 11:49 Therefore also said the wisdom of God, I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them they
shall slay and persecute:
11:50 That the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this
generation;
 11:51 From the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zacharias which perished between the altar and the temple: verily I say unto you, It shall be required of this generation.
11:52 Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them
that were entering in ye hindered.
11:53 And as he said these things unto them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to urge him vehemently, and to provoke him to speak of many things:
11:54 Laying wait for him, and seeking to catch something out of his mouth, that they might accuse him.
12:51 Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division:
The Yoke has been destroyed because of the anointing; Isa. 10:27
 No chips at all!!!
Revival News was not written with chips on my shoulder but with a genuine heart to restore the ancient landmark back to the Pentecostal denominational churches!
