    Tony Alamo Program 270: The Book of Proverbs, Roman Canon Law, and a Jewish Businessman's Letter From Beverly Hills Tony Alamo devotes program 270, part 168 of his teaching series, to a study of wisdom in the Book of Proverbs, a lengthy warning against what he calls Roman canon law and the Vatican, and listener letters from Tennessee and a Jewish convert in Beverly Hills, read by his co-host Lydia. Program 270 Opens With a Lesson on Wisdom Tony Alamo opens the broadcast, identifying himself as World Pastor and naming the day's program: part 168 of his series How to Have God's Life Living in You, program 270, available free by request with shipping included. He turns to the opening verses of the Book of Proverbs, teaching that wisdom, defined as the fear of the Lord, is the book's central theme and the key to living "skillfully" and reaching heaven. He argues that the whole duty of man is to fear God and keep His commandments, not some partial version of it, and notes that many modern preachers try to soften "fear" into "reverence." His co-host Lydia supplies the word from the studio, and Alamo answers by citing the trembling of the Israelites at Sinai and the angel's instruction to Mary to "fear not," insisting the original word is deliberately harsh. The congregation answers with an audible amen as he sets up the rest of the hour's teaching. Warnings About Modern Claims and Roman Canon Law Alamo pivots to what he calls lies spread about Jesus, including claims that Jesus had a relationship with Mary Magdalene, did not die on the cross, or was gay, insisting Jesus is instead the one who destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, and that only the King James Bible can be trusted against these distortions. He tells listeners their fate rests on choosing between God's word and the voice of Satan, comparing the choice to Eve's decision to believe the serpent over God. He then introduces his recurring theme, Roman canon law, describing it as the true governing law behind American institutions and naming the ACLU as one of what he calls the Vatican's many branches, citing "Reverend Kennedy" in Fort Lauderdale for the claim. He leads the studio in an opening prayer asking the broadcast be anointed for salvation, then performs his own recording of "From Sunday School to Broadway," a song he says was given to him by Frank and Nancy Sinatra's publishing company and songwriter Billy Strange. A Conversion Story From a Beverly Hills Office Returning from the song, Alamo tells the story of his own conversion, describing an encounter in an attorney's office in Beverly Hills, where he was among film-industry people negotiating to buy into a singer he managed, when he says the Lord spoke to him audibly, commanding him to stand and tell the room about Jesus Christ's return or "surely die." He recalls that the experience convinced him of heaven and hell despite not believing in God beforehand, and that the Lord corrected his assumption that God's love was unconditional, telling him instead that love means keeping His commandments and that "no liar shall enter the kingdom of heaven." He warns listeners not to fear people, since a human "whose nose is one breath" can only kill the body, while God alone can condemn the soul to hell. Lydia answers "amen" as he closes the teaching and turns toward the day's listener correspondence. Letters From Cordova and a Federal Agent's Confession Lydia begins reading listener mail, starting with a letter from a new Christian named Joseph in Cordova, Tennessee, a college freshman living with his parents who asks for literature and audio CDs to distribute despite limited means. Alamo responds that believers cannot win souls "sitting at home watching the TV set." Joseph's letter also requests a CD about what Alamo calls an "evil one world government" posing as U.S. agents, material he says came from a former FBI, BATF, DEA and Secret Service agent named Peeler, who told him federal agents went to Waco to deliberately kill people they knew were not sinners, calling it a "turkey shoot," and had a hand in the World Trade Center and Oklahoma City federal building bombings and Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor. Alamo describes a book of Roman canon law in the studio "thicker than the New York phone book" and says the United States now operates under it instead of the Constitution, calling the FBI and federal government "puppets of Rome." A Jewish Businessman's Letter From Beverly Hills Lydia then reads a letter from a Jewish business owner in Beverly Hills, originally from Tel Aviv, who called the ministry's witnessing line to say he accepted Christ as the Messiah after reading the tract "Peace in the Middle East." Alamo rejoices that another of what he calls the 144,000 elect Jews of the end times has been reached, and recounts the ministry's expanding newspaper campaign, with recent ads in the Miami Herald and five weeks running in the New York Daily News, and plans to reach San Diego, Houston and Chicago ...

    Tony Alamo Program 767A: The Beast of Revelation 13, Satan's Seat in Rome, and a Warning to Two Underage Girls World pastor Tony Alamo devotes program 767A of his teaching series to the thirteenth chapter of Revelation, tracing the beast's seven heads and ten horns to what he calls Satan's seat in Rome, and defending his refusal to let two underage members of his congregation marry. Program 767A Opens With a Call to Prayer Help From Christ Ministries introduces the broadcast as an archived message from Tony Alamo, inviting listeners to write in before turning the program over to him. Alamo greets the audience as world pastor, identifies the broadcast as program number 767, and tells listeners Sharon will explain at the close how to request a free CD or audio tape, postage included. He turns to the thirteenth chapter of Revelation, insisting the book is no different from the rest of scripture and that the Word of God never contradicts itself. Before teaching, he leads the studio in prayer, asking the Father to anoint him with the Holy Spirit's understanding, wisdom, knowledge, and fear of the Lord so the congregation can follow along. He warns that anyone who rejects the instruction to obey those who have rule over them cannot be trusted to believe the rest of the Bible, calling such people filthy sick, and asks the Lord to give Satan no place in the broadcast. The congregation answers with an audible amen. A Song and the Beast Rising From the Sea Alamo performs a recording of 'No Man Is an Island' with what he introduces as the Prague Symphony Orchestra and the Light Choir. Returning to the microphone, he teaches that faith means obeying the instruction to submit to those given rule, complaining that some around him fail to relay his messages and calling them worthless. He begins reading Revelation chapter thirteen, describing the Apostle John standing on the sand of the sea and seeing a beast rise from it with seven heads, ten horns, and ten crowns, its heads marked with names of blasphemy. Alamo teaches that the ten crowns represent pride, the greatest sin, and that true blasphemy is thinking oneself smarter than God. He cites King Saul, the Bible's first king, losing the Spirit after a single act of disobedience, and warns that people who ignore correction, congregation members included, are full of the same blasphemous pride. Two Young Girls and a Warning to the Government Alamo tells of two young women who recently left the church, explaining that one had a sister, not part of the congregation, whose sexual relationships outside marriage had resulted in a pregnancy; the two girls left, he says, wanting to confront the sister over her conduct. He recounts that the sister then arrived near the church and took the two underage girls with her, and that both wanted to marry, which he says would have been lawful under the Bible once they had reached puberty but which he refused to allow because of their age under civil law. He tells them that if they want to marry they must leave the church and marry a godly person outside it, saying he will not risk giving what he calls the anti-Christ beast government, already eager to prosecute him as it did another man he references only in passing, any further opportunity. He adds that many young people become pregnant outside marriage and turn to abortion, which he calls legalized murder. The Beast as Leopard, Bear, and Lion Returning to Revelation thirteen, Alamo reads verse two, describing the beast as having the likeness of a leopard, the feet of a bear, and the mouth of a lion, teaching that each animal represents a different world power blended into one worldwide, satanic system operating as what people mistake for democracy. He teaches that the dragon, the devil, gave the beast its power and its seat, which he places in Rome, Italy, the city the Bible calls the city of seven hills, along with great authority reaching every country on earth. He includes what he calls the last stage of taking Muslim nations, whose people, he says, believe in Allah rather than the Bible and wish to kill white people as agents of the devil, a claim he rejects by insisting Jesus himself was Caucasian and that salvation is for every tongue and nation. He calls the Pope Satan incarnate for claiming the title of God, saying he prefers hearing people specify 'praise you, Father God' rather than the ambiguous 'praise God.' A Wounded Head, Grave Accusations, and Rome Revived Alamo moves to verse three, reading that one of the beast's heads was wounded to death, an image he identifies as the historical fall of Rome. He accuses what he calls this cult of murder, adultery, fornication, same-sex marriage, and pedophilia involving preteen children, calling these doctrines of devils that invert God's commandments by making evil legal and good forbidden, and insists that those born again of the Spirit stand in complete opposition to this system. He then reads that the deadly wound was healed ...

    Tony Alamo Program 269: Roman Canon Law, a Tribute to Jack Holcomb, and the Call to Write After Susie Alamo's Death World Pastor Tony Alamo devotes program 269 of his teaching series to a lengthy warning against what he calls Roman Canon Law, a musical tribute to the late gospel singer Jack Holcomb, and the story of how his wife Susie's death led him to begin writing gospel literature. Opening Prayer and a Warning on Roman Canon Law Tony Alamo opens program 269, part 167 of his series How to Have God's Life Living in You, offering listeners a free CD or tape copy with postage included, and notes that emails already arrive by the thousands. He blames the decline of the United States, once the richest and most powerful nation in the world and now ranked, he says, around thirtieth, on what he calls Roman Canon Law, a legal code he argues has replaced the Bible in schools, courts, and government. Leading the small studio congregation in prayer, he asks the Lord to anoint the broadcast so that only the Holy Spirit speaks through him. He contrasts Roman Canon Law's teaching that everyone remains carnal with the eighth chapter of Romans, insisting the spirit-filled are already perfect in Christ. He locates Satan's seat in Rome, the city of the seven hills, and claims federal agencies operating under that same spirit carried out the killings at Waco and the bombings of the World Trade Center and the Oklahoma City federal building. A Vision of Jesus and the 144,000 Continuing his prayer, Tony Alamo tells listeners that presidents and kings have knelt before Rome for power, money, and luxury, while true believers must take up a crucified life and deny both the world and Roman Canon Law. He describes Satan as cast down to earth, full of wrath because his time is short, and turns to the seventh chapter of Revelation, where four angels are told to spare the earth and sea until 144,000 people are sealed on their foreheads. Alamo says his own ministry is meant to help bring that number of Jews into the body of Christ before the end comes. He recounts seeing Jesus face to face, saying he expected to be afraid but instead found him the most handsome man he had ever seen, though still fully a man. He teaches that believers who die will be resurrected in glorified bodies like Christ's own, and the prayer closes with an audible amen from a female member of the congregation. A Tribute to the Late Jack Holcomb Tony Alamo introduces a recording of Jack Holcomb, calling him one of his favorite singers and the greatest gospel-singing preacher in the world, a man gone home to the Lord for many years. He recalls that Holcomb's two-year-old daughter died the day before a well-known tornado struck Texas, adding that he understands the grief because of how much he loves his own daughter. The program then plays Holcomb's recording of I Found the Answer, I Learned to Pray. Returning afterward, Alamo says the song carries real meaning for anyone who prays according to God's will and already believes the prayer is answered, contrasting that kind of faith with what he calls the carnal instruction handed down through Roman Canon Law and secular universities. He tells listeners that real gifts of the Spirit come only through prayer aligned with God's will, setting up the personal story he tells next about his own wife. Susie Alamo's Death and the Call to Write Tony Alamo recalls the day his wife Susie died, April 8, 1982, saying he felt helpless because she had done most of the preaching and was one of the Lord's major workers on earth. He sketches his own background, born in Joplin, Missouri, and raised in Montana towns including Billings, Helena, and Lewistown, later becoming, in his words, a big-city man in Los Angeles, New York, Cleveland, and Houston. He says Susie, as she was dying, asked to return to Dyer, Arkansas, where she had grown up, and the couple bought back her childhood home for about six thousand dollars. After her death, Alamo says he prayed for the gift to write, and the Lord warned him he would have to give up traveling and stay inside to receive the messages. Within an hour he wrote his first tract, Guilty by Association, warning believers against close friendships that could pull them astray, citing Solomon's marriages to foreign wives as a cautionary example. Feeding the Needy and Reaching Thirty Million Homes Tony Alamo teaches that believers should pray for gifts matching God's will, such as speaking in tongues, prophecy, and the gift of charity, meaning genuine concern for the hungry at home and abroad. He describes the ministry sending boxes of toys, clothing, fruit, and candy to needy families at Christmastime, and outlines plans to stream excerpts of church services from Los Angeles, Texarkana, and Fort Smith online whether or not television stations carry them. Contrasting real prayer with Jiminy Cricket's advice to give a little whistle, Alamo insists suffering people should pray instead, and recalls ...

    Tony Alamo How To Have God's Life Living In You Part 155, The Shield of Faith and Letters From Nigeria and Ghana Tony Alamo devotes program 257, part 155 of his teaching series, to prayer as a shield of faith, walking through Moses's intercession over the golden calf, reading listener letters from Nigeria, Ghana, and Elizabeth, New Jersey, and leading two calls to salvation with co-hosts Jean and Sharon. Opening Prayer and Extra-Biblical Books Tony Alamo opens the broadcast by identifying it as part 155 of his series How to Have God's Life Living in You, program number 257, and tells listeners that Sharon will explain how to receive a free tape or CD of the message. He builds his message around the shield of prayer, recalling how Moses intercedes with God after Aaron and the people of Israel build a golden calf and fall into idolatry while Moses is on the mountain. He argues that Moses uses scripture and God's own promises to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob to plead for the nation rather than simple pleading. He then turns to what he considers extra, authentic books of scripture, including the Book of Enoch, the Book of Adam and Eve, and Solomon's Book of Wisdom, which he says the Catholic church removed from its version of the Bible even as it retained others, a claim he presents as his own understanding rather than settled fact. A Prayer Against the Ministry's Enemies Alamo leads an extended prayer asking God to strengthen believers and to deal with those he describes as enemies of soul-winning churches, people he believes were once saved but have turned away and now fight ministries doing the Lord's work. He compares this opposition to the Apostle Paul before his conversion, recalling how Jesus asked Paul on the road to Damascus why he was persecuting him, and argues that anyone who fights a true church is really fighting God. He asks that these people repent and return, but if they will not, he asks God to pour coals of fire on their heads, a plea he repeats more than once, and to stop them from, in his words, cumbering the earth. He frames the request as following Moses's example of using scripture, rather than mere emotion, when interceding with God. Jean answers with an emphatic amen as the prayer closes. Gospel Music and Letters From Abroad With the prayer finished, Alamo introduces Swing Down Chariot, a recording he made with J.D. Sumner and the Stamps Quartet, and the program plays an extended performance of the song. Afterward he turns to listener mail with co-host Jean, who reads letters from people reached through Alamo's literature, radio broadcasts, and website. A reverend named Mbekera writes from Akwa Ibom State in Nigeria, describing how the ministry's booklets helped a friend leave decades in the occult and asking how to distribute the literature locally. A caller from Elizabeth, New Jersey, a school security guard, praises the newsletter and asks for copies to share with Bible study groups in his schools. A third letter, from a man named Samuel in Ghana, thanks Alamo for his own conversion through the literature and requests fifty booklets and ten Bibles. Alamo responds to each by tying salvation to prayer, calling it the believer's shield against opposition and family pressure. Exodus and the Golden Calf Alamo then turns to Sharon for scripture, opening to Exodus chapter thirty-two, verse eight, where God describes Israel's idolatry after Aaron casts the golden calf. As Sharon reads verse by verse, Alamo comments that the calf could not speak, breathe, or walk, and warns against modern people worshiping money, pleasure, or anything besides God as breaking the first commandment. He explains God's warning to Moses, "let me alone, that my wrath may wax hot," as evidence that intercessory prayer can genuinely move God's decisions, since Alamo teaches God will not act against a person who stands on scripture and covenant promises. Jean interjects that of roughly three million Israelites delivered from Egypt, only Joshua and Caleb survived the ensuing forty years in the wilderness. Alamo also recalls the story of Sennacherib's army, wiped out overnight by a single angel, offering it as further proof that God intervenes decisively for and against nations depending on their obedience. The Armor of God and Conditional Prayer Sharon continues reading from the apocryphal Book of Wisdom, where Moses is described as bringing forward the shield of his ministry, even prayer, to overcome the destroyer sent among the people. Alamo builds on this to describe the full armor of God, listing the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, the breastplate of righteousness, and the belt of truth, and insists that none of these are automatic; each depends on conditions such as asking, seeking, and knocking, citing Matthew chapter seven and chapter twenty-one on prayer being answered. He tells listeners that faith without such works is dead. The discussion turns political when Alamo insists that the disputed land ...

    Tony Alamo How To Have God's Life Living In You Part 156: Shield of Faith, Difficulty Mountains, and Ghana Letters Tony Alamo devotes program 258, part 156 of his teaching series, to the shield of faith, reads his decades-old vision of a mountain climb with his late wife Susie, shares conversion letters from Ghana, and hears salvation testimonies from Leah Swetten and his wife Sharon Alamo. Opening Prayer and Shield of Faith Teaching Tony Alamo opens the broadcast identifying it as program number 258, part 156 of his ongoing series How to Have God's Life Living in You, and tells listeners a free tape or CD copy is available for the asking. He leads an opening prayer built around the shield of faith, explaining that faith and prayer are the same shield, since it is God who quenches, in his words, all the fiery darts aimed at believers. He asks for the outward anointing of the Holy Spirit to fall on the service, for the sick to be healed, for souls to be saved, and for those who have fallen away to return before it is too late, closing with an amen answered by co-host Jeannie Alamo. He then performs his own recording of Where Man's Love Stops, God's Love Begins, and afterward reminds listeners not to put their trust in man but to raise the shield of faith through constant prayer. Letters From Ghana With the song finished, Tony Alamo turns to co-host Jeannie Alamo for the mail. She reads first from a listener named Mustafa in Ghana, who writes that the ministry's World Newsletter has changed his life, that everyone he shares it with has received Jesus as Savior, and who asks for more literature, a visit to the ministry, and a 3X t-shirt like ones he has seen others wearing. Alamo tells staff to send the t-shirt along with more literature and Messiah booklets. Jeannie then reads a second letter, from a young man named Enoch in Mankessim, Ghana, who says he accepted Christ after reading Alamo's booklet The Messiah and asks for Bibles, preaching cassettes, t-shirts, a Bible dictionary, and a concordance for his church. Alamo compares the volume of mail to what he recalls from the old Perry Como Show, saying he has never seen letters like these from anywhere else in his career. The Difficulty Mountains Vision Jeannie Alamo then reads a lengthy piece of Alamo's own literature called Difficulty Mountains, describing a vision he says came shortly after marrying his late wife Susie. In it he climbs a steep mountain with unusual strength while Susie struggles behind him, and the scene shifts from color to black and white, just as it did in an earlier vision foretelling their marriage and shared ministry, as a hellish storm descends. He connects the vision to their actual wedding at Red Rock Baptist Church in Las Vegas, where a storm struck before the ceremony, and recalls that singer Hank Snow, a stranger to him at the time, stood as best man, a detail Alamo corrects on air from Las Vegas to Nashville as their later meeting place. The reading interprets the storm as decades of persecution against the ministry orchestrated, in Alamo's telling, through Rome, the media, and world government, a claim offered as his own understanding of prophecy rather than settled fact, and closes urging listeners to endure to the end. A Spoken Salvation Prayer Turning from the reading, Tony Alamo leads listeners through a spoken salvation prayer, asking them to tell the Lord they believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God, that God raised him from the dead, and to invite him into their hearts to wash away sin. He tells listeners their prayer has been heard and answered and that they can know they are saved, then leads a longer prayer of thanksgiving, describing the Holy Spirit entering a believer's spirit as being raised from death to life and seated in heavenly places. He tells anyone who has prayed along to raise their hands and worship, framing the moment as the practical answer to the sermon's theme, since the shield of faith is itself the act of praying such words aloud. He then calls for a volunteer from among those present to come forward and share a personal testimony on the air, telling the room not to be nervous despite the broadcast reaching, he estimates, several hundred million listeners worldwide. Testimonies From Leah Swetten and Sharon Alamo A woman who identifies herself as Leah Swetten steps up first, saying she was saved more than sixteen years earlier after years as an alcoholic and drug addict in Reno, Nevada, feeling hopeless despite sensing a calling on her life. She says a piece of the ministry's gospel literature reached her, that she prayed the salvation prayer printed in it, and that she was invited to join and serve the ministry, where she remains today. Tony Alamo then introduces his wife, Sharon Alamo, noting she shares his Romanian Jewish heritage and was bat mitzvahed. Sharon recalls a childhood in an Orthodox home in California where the rituals never felt meaningful, describes asking God as a child to ...
