Why Go There?
If you can have the real thing, why go to a shadow of reality? …why indeed settle for something less than the Ultimate? Now, I just asked Dad what is any different from what I am about to spout, right now, in this article, than what anyone else is saying …and I just got an answer that shocked me to the core. Dad told me to “make it different.”
When I first awakened this morning it was to the red lighted digital number 3:22. I knew I wasn’t going back to sleep and I started thinking about what I might do. I’m currently working on a new book which Ryan Bruce has commissioned me to write and which will be published by the organization which he heads, Spiritual Healing Source, in Burnaby, British Columbia.
“Why go there?” I heard, and it was only slightly startling …after all, I’m somewhat used to Dad shaking my tree to move on to something new and different.
Just twenty minutes later I formed the above referenced question and got the shocking answer. At first I asked how to do that? (Make it different). The answer, again, was immediate and quite unsettling, but only at first, for now I am fully aware of Dad’s presence and power and know exactly what to write about. He is going to write it! That is what is different.
In the past two days I’ve heard from two friends, one who lives in Portland, Oregon the other in Dallas, Texas. Both were extolling the wonders of a conference they attended in a city in the Pacific Northwest, each of them unaware of the presence of the other, not unexpectedly since one of them told me that four thousand people were in attendance.
I was very excited especially by the phone conversation with my friend Jim in Portland. He told me of hearing stories of people being raised from the dead, and thousands of healings all over the world. He told of an experience he had there of being “slain in the spirit” – now that wasn’t the term he used, but it is a biblical term some would use to describe the same thing. To say it was a life changing time for him I think and trust will prove to be an understatement.
I asked him several questions, because Ryan Bruce, the publisher of Brad Cullen’s books and other writings and the sponsor of this website, and I have a phone call scheduled – and I wanted, “in fairness,” to give another side to some of the critical things I generally am led to say about organized Christianity and its disobedience to the commands of SPIRIT-PARENT that came through the mouth of Jesus.
Wow, Dad, is this You and shall I continue writing in this vein? I’m being instructed to tell you the following: First of all, I sensed, during the phone call with Jim, that he was going to get involved with one of the organizational parts connected to the referenced conference. I jokingly chided him that I was glad something finally got him off his butt to do what Jesus said we would all be about doing if we believed enough, which includes raising the dead, healing the sick, getting rid of the spiritual causes of all kinds of afflictions and other such “stuff.”
Again, I asked some additional questions because I wanted to know a little more about the organization behind the conference and I told him, again, that I wanted to do a little research online in preparation for Ryan’s call.
What I found shocked me, because it contains some of the same old stuff of the organized church that MISSES THE POINT! When I accepted the call to “come out of organized Christianity” I was instructed not to judge her, and I cannot and do not, although I have to confess (and Ryan has certainly called attention to the fact that I certainly sound judgmental at times) and others have told me that I “have a critical spirit.”
Daddy, I want YOU, Your SPIRIT and will no matter what the cost (period). I want only one SPIRIT to control me, the SPIRIT who created the universe and everything in it and became the man commonly referred to as Jesus the Christ. I take authority over any other spirit attempting to influence me and say you have heard my declaration, so get away from me NOW!
Okay, I’m being told to move on. Here’s the thing, I went to the website of one of the organizations and their “statement of faith” which is so far beyond anything I have yet seen and, most of which, if you have been listening to what Ryan and I have been discussing or what I have been writing, we are in harmony with.
I want to be excited and supportive and why not! It is high time organized Christianity began moving according to the destiny that was proclaimed through its namesake. As Ryan pointed out in a recent recorded phone conversation, he was healed of Crohn’s disease while still in “the church,” he was empowered by SPIRIT to do many signs and wonders (my terminology) while he was still in “the church,” he also admitted that in his experience it was a rare occasion that any other church with which he was familiar did much of anything according to the purported teachings of Jesus related to the seeming “supernatural.” So this “statement of faith” sounded like a breath of fresh air.
Dad just explained to me that it is not “high time” for organized Christianity to do anything and why …it is a shadow of HIS reality and will remain so because its leader is someone and something else.
Dad, is this still YOU?
Here is the crux of the matter and what I am supposed to tell all those who have ears to hear: The reason NOT to go there, to the shadow of reality, is because of the missing factors …which are very simple and partly exposed by this organization’s motto:
“Liberty to the oppressed …every believer a son of God after the Son of God; every believer a minister of reconciliation, an ambassador for Jesus Christ with His love, His power, His strength, His might, His ability and His dominion.”
But, Dad, what is missing? How can this be wrong? This is the very thing you have led me to emphasize in so much I have written.
“Look more deeply.”
I did and I am not to tell you what I’ve been shown. Dad is calling you to come directly home to Him. I am supposed to tell you the one thing that I have been chosen to tell you. Knock, seek and “don’t look here or there” to any organization or man. How are Ryan and I any different? We’re not. We are one with every individual following this organization, the one thing I am permitted to tell you here (Dad assures me there will be more that comes out of Ryan’s and my discussion of this piece), we are under a different leader, our only over-seer is Dad (period) and that’s the difference and the reason you really don’t want to go anywhere else, but Dad, directly.
A final note, interestingly (to me) Dad is telling me He may well lead many who come directly to Him to places He is not leading Ryan and me. I am to encourage you, to keep checking in with Him to make sure you are being directed by Him and not the false leader who is being led by the False Leader.
That’s all for now …listen to what Ryan and I have to say in podcast #27 and do so while tuned into Dad.

Wow is this a challenge, find out where Brad really stands when the music stops: Podcast 27 Sept 15 2010 The Real Thing or A Shadow of Reality
I just finished listening to podcast 15 & 16; and found them to be uplifting. I really agreed with you that if we speak the right things we can be healed. The power is in us and we can be kingdom people and never die, because we are eternal people. We can speak the wrong ideas and give the enemy authority to seal, kill, and destroy. I am commited to speak the will of my heavenly Abba and let Him bring me life. Thanks for your encouragement. All the Best. jim
