Talk2Action: Generational Curses, Deliverance Centers, and the Kingdom Health Care System

The growing obsession with demons imperils reality-based discourse on issues.

With the "Apostles and Prophets" leading the way, much of the Religious Right is becoming increasingly obsessed with a war on demons. In this worldview every obstacle from microphone static to cancer is a manifestation of an attack by the devil. The belief that America is under satanic attack can be seen in dialogue on healthcare, education, foreign policy, and has become integrated into faith-based programming and other social services. Time and money are being spent on holding back and expelling demons from individuals, communities, and nations.

Continue below the fold for an introduction to demon fighting terminology including removing curses, demon deliverance centers, the "Kingdom Health Care System," breaking demonic strongholds, and more.


Prayer and meditation are integral parts of all religions and take many different forms. However, the demon-busting tactics listed below are relatively new spiritual warfare methodologies combined with pre-enlightenment demonology. A 2001 Christianity Today article stated, "Stunning numbers of North American Christians believe demons may be at the root of apparently natural maladies or temptations." The article included C. Peter Wagner as a popular demon deliverance author, but was written just as Wagner's New Apostolic Reformation was beginning to take form. Since 2001 these ideologies have spread beyond the rapidly growing sphere of Wagner's apostles and prophets.

The spiritual warfare techniques listed below are based on the belief that humans have been given the supernatural power to remove the sources of human misfortune, illness, and tragedy, as well as the ability to create utopias on earth through the taking of geographic territory from demonic principalities. The New Apostolics oppose religious pluralism and teach that an earthly utopia can be achieved through religious uniformity under the authority of their apostles in a global cell church system. Regardless of how alien these spiritual warfare techniques may sound to the reader, none of the examples below could be considered "fringe" as they are being practiced by millions around the globe. Instruction on these methods is probably no farther than your nearest Choice Books carousel, a distributor that often features books on spiritual warfare. (In my location, this is a carousel at the grocery positioned so you can read books on supernatural healthcare while waiting for the pharmacist. Choice Books are advertised as featuring wholesome inspirational literature at 9400 displays across the country.)

Curses and Witchcraft Cause STDs, Poverty

Larry Huch is founder of the Texas megachurch DFW New Beginnings and a former director of John Hagee's Christians United for Israel. In his book 10 Curses that Block the Blessing, Huch explains breaking curses from witches by relating the story of a couple he had advised. The young mother had a sexually transmitted disease that she acquired shortly after her marriage, and was passed on to her infant. After a few questions, Huch informs the couple that the STD was a curse put on the young woman by her grandmother at the couple's wedding. Huch then claims to have removed the curse and cured both mother and baby. This was one account in a chapter titled "Witchcraft - It's More Common Than You Think." Read more on Huch's view of curses at the Apostolic and Prophetic magazine The Voice Magazine.

1. So, did the husband pay this guy to tell his wife the STD was the result of a curse?
Just wondering.
