What your pastor may not be telling you about the
TRANSFORMATIONS I & II Videos
Transformations I & II are promotional materials for the global Lausanne Consultation on World Evangelization [LCWE, Billy Graham, 1974] and the resulting AD 2000 Prayer Track [C. Peter Wagner].
The true meaning of the Sentinel Group's Transformations
Transformations really means the transformation of cities worldwide to submit to the authority of a global government and one world religion. Christians who participate in the A.D. 2000 Movement will be uniting with the New Age Movement to usher in this Antichrist system. Contrary to Transformation's message, there is no great revival prophesied for the last days. Rather, II Thessalonians 2:3 calls for “a falling away” – an apostasy from the Christian faith: Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition.
Billy Graham shared his beliefs which are not found in Scripture:
… that's what God is doing today, He's calling people out of the world for His name, whether they come from the Muslim world, or the Buddhist world, or the Christian world, or the non-believing world, they are members of the Body of Christ because they've been called by God. They may not even know the name of Jesus, but they know in their hearts that they need something that they don't have, and they turn to the only light that they have, and I think that they are saved, and that they're going to be with us in heaven.
…the Roman Catholic Church has changed. They open their arms to welcome us and we have the support of the Catholic Church almost everywhere we go. And I think that we must come to the place where we keep our eyes on Jesus Christ, not on what denomination or what church or what group we belong to. [emphasis added]
~ May 31, 1997 Interview of Billy Graham by Robert Schuller ~
What is Graham talking about?
Graham's statement reflects the grave error in thinking of today's evangelicals and their attempts to build bridges with the Vatican and with other false religions. Catholics, Jews, Muslims, and Buddhists must all be "born again" by God's Holy Spirit [John 3: 3-21] to be recognized by God as members in the body of Christ.
God requires that all who come to Him must come through Jesus Christ's new and everlasting Covenant – through faith in Jesus whose death on the Cross paid the price for sins, and in His physical resurrection which conquered Death and Satan. Forgiveness of sins and the gift of eternal life are freely given only to those who repent from dead works and surrender their lives to Jesus Christ; salvation requires receiving Jesus Christ as Savior and LORD:
Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Hebrews 8: 6 But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also is he the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.
Hebrews 9:14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
Catholics, Jews, Muslims and Buddhists must separate from the dead works of religion to become followers of Jesus Christ. They are not members of the Body of Christ.
Leaders of Lausanne , the AD 2000 Prayer Track and the Catholic Church
Graham is a leader in the worldwide Lausanne Movement. Lausanne includes Catholic members, considering them to be Christians. Today Lausanne's leaders are persuading their followers --many being Christians-- to accept Catholics as brothers and sisters in Christ, even though they are not. George Otis works in collaboration with the Lausanne leaders and the AD 2000 Prayer Track. See: The Sentinel Group web page, Who We Are: Doctrines and Affiliations - tinelgroup.org/WAW5.html
Catholics, choosing to accept God's terms for salvation according to the Bible, must separate themselves from the Catholic Church and its practices. [I Thessalonians 1: 9… how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God.] Catholics follow: a salvation based on works, not on faith alone [Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.], devotion to Mary as Co- Mediatrix [I Timothy 2: 5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.], confession to a priest who acts as mediator to God [again, I Timothy 2:5], Mass -- a communion representing the continual sacrifice of Jesus Christ [as though Jesus's death and resurrection is not a finished work. Hebrews 10:10-12 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices which can never take away sins: But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God…]; a communion representing the partaking of the literal body and blood of Christ [Jesus asked that communion be only a remembrance of him. Luke 22: 19-20], prayers for the dead [There is no such place as Purgatory; death ends all opportunity of salvation-- eternal life with the Lord-- for the one who dies. Hebrews 9:27]
According to the Vatican pronouncements, all Christians must come under the jurisdiction of the Roman Catholic Church and the Pope, thus becoming Catholics. The Vatican's demands will never change. Despite this fact, Lausanne leaders maintain a dialogue with the Catholic Church to explore common ground -- Evangelicals and Catholics Together [1994]-- and to consider The Nature and Mission of the Church (meaning Evangelicals and Catholics working together in an unbiblical partnership).
AD 2000 Prayer Track & the New Age
Lausanne 's AD 2000 Prayer Track [C. Peter Wagner] has introduced to the Christian churches New Age/pagan terminology and concepts such as: vision casting, prayerwalking, prayer journeys, spiritual mapping, synchronized prayers in symbolic territorial locations, identifying/exorcising territorial spirits, engaging in battle with the Queen of Heaven, city transformation, etc.… These are the devices of false teachers which are not recommended but are reproved in Scripture. “Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities. Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee. But these speak evil of those things they know not…” Jude 8-10
Rather, as Christians in obedience to God, we are to "Put on the whole armor of God" and "take…the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Praying always …in the Spirit…for all saints…" and to share "…the mystery of the gospel…"[Ephesians 6:10-20] (Scripture supports the casting of evil spirits out of demonized persons, but in the context of the spiritual gifts [I Cor. 12:10 – discerning of spirits] and by those in legitimate spiritual authority as determined by the local church, i.e., the five-fold ministry [Ephesians 4:11].)
Transformation is a popular New Age term. (An example is World Transformation www.worldtrans.org - offering LINKS for a global spiritual unity.)

Hemet , California …a Divine Visitation or a Sentinel Group Delusion?
George Otis, Jr. has said, " A city that is truly transformed by the gospel will exhibit the characteristics of the kingdom of God here on earth." And he has said,"…Indeed we fully expect, and hope, that people will visit the [Sentinel Group's] profiled communities and learn from them firsthand."
Hemet was the first U.S. city George Otis, Jr. and his Sentinel Group's scientific researchers identified as a "transformed city" in their Transformations I video. Reader, please take the time to call an official or contact an organization in Hemet -- Hemet's mayor, the Hemet Police Department, the Hemet Chamber of Commerce, the Hemet News -- and you'll discover that no one has ever heard about the Sentinel Group, George Otis or Hemet's community transformation. Hemet, California serves as the West Coast headquarters for Scientology; a dangerous cult with roots in Freemasonry and fascism.
I Peter 1:17 And if ye call on the Father…pass the time of your sojourning here in [Godly] fear.
