Ever hear of the New Apostolic Reformation/NAR? They're the Religious Right driving the bus off the
road of democracy. Interestingly, for us boomers this began in those days after WWII and the beginning of the Cold War and empire collapses it was called The Latter Rain Movement of 1948.
Below is a starting point on NAR from Wikipedia.

(26,083 posts)The New Apostolic Reformation dominion is having it's day today just as it's leadership contemplated in the past 7-8 decades imo.
These people are the new self-proclaimed prophets and apostles, RW spinning The Day of the Lord they are ecumenical and quite an influential group-regardless of all else.

The commonality, as well as the context, remains anchored to the Latter Rain New Apostolic Reformation in a 21st Century that now has a Caliphate in the Levant, Attorney General Holder still obsfucating for master, not pursuing justice in the land of competively bidden torture and completely corrupted leadership, the lost souls of the money mangers of Mammon-but send in a love contribution and get a prayer ensign or something in return with a sase. To the legacy of Falwell and his Bush/Cheney religious fascism fundamentalist Liberty Univesity-woe to ye scribes and Pharisees!!!

The House of Affirmation retailed pedophilia in the guise of helping damaged souls. The NAR is ecumenical!
The House of Affirmation's Director/cofounder was Rev. Thomas A. KANE
More about him and the House of Affirmation later.

There was an extended German family that got assistance from Billy Graham and his associates when they arrived here in 1951. I don't know if they were part of the many Germans sponsored in things like Operation PAPERCLIP. The career of the founder of Cross Technologies, Heinz W. Wegener, is interesting with the Billy Graham connection.

(160,527 posts)Had no idea there were so many of these people. The word "extreme" doesn't seem to really cover them.
Appreciate the information you've put at our fingertips to sort through this. It's definitely a world, a system within our world. I have known similar, smaller "worlds," and they are NOT happy people.

(26,083 posts)influenced so many people (including self and family).
These once fringe cult doctrines have become so powerful because of the 24/7 programming of their belief systems and the massive post-WWll "infiltration" of well established organized religions.
There is quite a historic NAR geo spatial relevance to my neck of the woods for some reason. Here are some more NAR related links for you and others.
"You shall not make my Father's House a house of merchandise..." yet this seems what the NAR has done in the context of sustainability imho.

(1 post)Recently on FB I found a very passionate lady sharing the gospel on a bus. She was loud and it appeared scriptural she was on par but my spirit kept telling me something was wrong. Besides the fact she would occasionally spout off in tongues (with no interpretation) which bothered me and her sing song style of preaching (kind of like Jimmy Swaggart) I just could not put my finger on it. So I posted the video on my group.....most people where fine with it, thought she was amazing. Of course now I am starting to doubt what I felt and feeling horrible but I never set out to judge or even desired what I felt in my spirit. Anyways I kept researching, I came upon the girls home fb page and she had more pictures of her breasts hanging out than an exposed plucked chicken....flags went back up, then I found a video of her rapping the gospel (well not being a rap fan and really knowing where it came from having done some serious research I was even less impressed) I also found a video where she starts to talk like a normal person and then go's into that sing song cadence style Jimmy Swaggart preaching........have mercy. As I progress in my research I find out she is Harvest Army World Revival under Bishop K.D. Collins. My understanding is they are pentecostal but my belief is they are NAR (New Apostolic Reformation) or a combo of the two.....either way it spells Ecumenical movement to me. Would you be so kind as to let me know what you know about these people as I desire to bring truth and awareness about it. Any and all information would be greatly appreciated.
