WARNING: Amir Tsarfati - False Teacher

[PrisonerOfHope]

Well, teachers we thought were sound are dropping like flies.     I'm sorry to say that Amir has joined their ranks; he's teaching that Michael the Archangel is Jesus.  I've researched this information carefully before posting, and it's true.  Unfortunately, his followers are having fits, claiming that the video was doctored, but the email from his ministry (below) confirms that he's teaching this blasphemy.  

Jacob Prasch also did a video on this; I won't post it, because he - in his usual obnoxious and abrasive manner - starts out by doing a good job on exposing Amir's false teaching, but then goes on to vehemently attack those who teach the pre-trib rapture; he seems to have a particular dislike of JD Farag. You can search it out on YouTube if you want to see it. 

Jude 1:9
is all we need to show this is a false teaching: 'Yet Michael the archangel, in contending with the devil, when he disputed about the body of Moses, dared not bring against him a reviling accusation, but said, “The Lord rebuke you!”' If Michael was the Lord, he wouldn't be saying that - he would rebuke the devil himself.  Michael is also called "one of the chief princes" in Daniel 10:13. 

Amir's teachings aren't identical to that of the JWs and the SDAs, who believe that Jesus and Michael are one and the same; he believes that Michael the Archangel - a created being - is only one theophany of Jesus. 

Personally, I never did listen to Amir's Bible studies because I don't see where he has the qualifications to be a Bible teacher, and I believe he's out of his league theologically.  Admittedly, he does do a good update on current events as they're happening in the Middle East since he seems to have sources within the IDF and the government.  

At least for now his prophecy updates will still be permitted, but any Bible teaching from him is NOT.  Please pray for Amir that his eyes are opened so he realizes this is a false teaching, and that he recants, as he has thousands of followers who believe every word he says.  I'll post the link to a FB thread at the bottom so you can see how people are defending him, despite all the evidence that he's WRONG. 

As for his association with Steve Berger, I'll post a separate thread on that. 

***
This is a short clip from a 2018 video (now removed from YouTube by Amir or his staff, this clip was definitely EDITED OUT from the original full video) where he states Jesus is Michael. This is FALSE! Jesus is God, Michael is a CREATED being...... Jesus was from eternity past, the ETERNAL GOD cannot be a created being! ********ATTENTION!!!******* ALL false religions and cults (list at the bottom) deny His Deity! This is a lie from satan himself, and those that teach and believe the Lord Jesus Christ is not God, are lost and incredibly deceived! You CANNOT be a Christian, if you deny the Lord Jesus Christ is God, the Second Person of the Holy Trinity! If you believe this lie, please get saved NOW! IF you don't believe Jesus is God, you do not know the Jesus of the Bible and you are headed for hell!

UPDATE: EMAIL PROOF FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO REFUSE TO BELIEVE YOUR OWN EYES AND EARS:

A sister in Christ wrote to Behold Israel asking about the video whom I'll not name, as who wrote in with the question is not the issue.

Hi Hilary--



I have a quick question - though you might have to clarify this with Amir == I know after people see today's Youtube program, you'll be getting lots of questions. At about 49:50 into this



[this video was removed by him & his staff after the complaints/questions began]



Amir says he believes that Jesus is Michael the Archangel. The only group I know of that teaches that are the 7th Day Adventists.

So my question is, Amir are you an Adventist? And if not, can you clarify your position on Jesus and Michael being one and the same?



Thank you for your assistance.

Dear xxxx



Hilary forwarded your email to me and I presented your question to Amir and this is his response below. But he also wanted me to let you know that this is not a doctrinal issue, so it is a subject that people (many good Bible Scholars) believe differently, but it should not cause division within the body of Christ.



THE spirit creature called Michael is not mentioned often in the Bible. However, when he is referred to, he is in action. In the book of Daniel, Michael is battling wicked angels; in the letter of Jude, he is disputing with Satan; and in Revelation, he is waging war with the Devil and his demons. By defending Jehovah’s rulership and fighting God’s enemies, Michael lives up to the meaning of his name—“Who Is Like God?” But who is Michael?



At times, individuals are known by more than one name. For example, the patriarch Jacob is also known as Israel, and the apostle Peter, as Simon. (Genesis 49:1, 2; Matthew 10:2) Likewise, the Bible indicates that Michael is another name for Jesus Christ, before and after his life on earth. Let us consider Scriptural reasons for drawing that conclusion.



Archangel. God’s Word refers to Michael “the archangel.” (Jude 9) This term means “chief angel.” Notice that Michael is called the archangel. This suggests that there is only one such angel. In fact, the term “archangel” occurs in the Bible only in the singular, never in the plural. Moreover, Jesus is linked with the office of archangel. Regarding the resurrected Lord Jesus Christ, 1 Thessalonians 4:16states: “The Lord himself will descend from heaven with a commanding call, with an archangel’s voice.” Thus the voice of Jesus is described as being that of an archangel. This scripture therefore suggests that Jesus himself is the archangel Michael.



Army Leader. The Bible states that “Michael and his angels battled with the dragon . . . and its angels.” (Revelation 12:7) Thus, Michael is the Leader of an army of faithful angels. Revelation also describes Jesus as the Leader of an army of faithful angels. (Revelation 19:14-16) And the apostle Paul specifically mentions “the Lord Jesus” and “his powerful angels.” (2 Thessalonians 1:7) So the Bible speaks of both Michael and “his angels” and Jesus and “his angels.” (Matthew 13:41; 16:27;24:31; 1 Peter 3:22) Since God’s Word nowhere indicates that there are two armies of faithful angels in heaven—one headed by Michael and one headed by Jesus—it is logical to conclude that Michael is none other than Jesus Christ in his heavenly role. *

Comment from the Bible and Prophecy: We are called to expose false doctrine and those who teach it. Thanks, Alice Childs, for these scriptures: (Jude 3-4; Romans 16:17-18; Ephesians 5:11; Colossians 2:8; 2 Corinthians 11:13-15; 2 Timothy 4:3-4; Galatians 1:6-9; Matthew 7:15-20; Ephesians 5:6-13; 1 Timothy 4:1; 2 John 1:10; 2 Peter 2:1-3; Acts 20:29; 2 John 1:7).

Brethren, I'm sorry for those of you who defend this "pastor," who probably most of us used to follow. You've heard he's refused to stop partnering with Steve Berger who believes one can communicate with the dead.

Now he's claiming Michael the archangel and Jesus are one and the same. This is the same heresy promoted by the Jehovah's Witnesses and Seventh Day Adventists.

The angels are created beings. Jesus is not a created being! He is God in the flesh who came to Earth to die for our sins, for those who would believe in Him. "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made...And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth" (John 1-2, 14). "For by Him all things in heaven and on earth were created, things visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or powers - all things have been created through Him and for Him (Colossians 1:16).

This is for those of you who think the video was doctored. The only doctoring done was by Behold Israel who removed Amir's comment later from the original video (though this is still what he believes).

FB thread with responses from many who refuse to believe he teaches this, and more proof that he does.

[Berean]

Wow. You can't trust anyone these days.  This shows the importance of being a Berean, searching the Scriptures, and testing the spirits. 

[PrisonerOfHope]

Here's an update from the Behold Israel Facebook page:

Shalom from Galilee,



Two years ago while filming a message on the tent of meeting I was so excited to share on how Jesus appeared to Old Testament characters such as Moses in Exodus 33 as he talked to God face to face. While I mentioned many other examples of Christ appearances I used one that is very debatable and I must admit was not a good one - that’s the archangel Michael in Daniel 10.



Once I realized that people take it as if I meant that Jesus is an angel and not God, I immediately removed that part from the teaching. I removed it because I don’t believe that Jesus is created but rather the creator. Yes, Jesus appeared many times as the Angel of the Lord but just as a title and not as an angel who is a created being. Angel in Hebrew is also a messenger.



Sadly, some people decided NOT to listen to the whole message but instead take the part that I removed, post it, and conclude that I am a Jehovah’s Witness or something like that. I find it very interesting that just as I finished working on a new message called “Immanuel” where I identify all the cults by their lack of belief in the deity of Christ - this attack on me has occurred.



Tune in tomorrow to my message and find out how strongly I believe in the deity of Christ!



Shabbat Shalom!

The video isn't yet available; I'll post it when it is.  The fact remains that the Bible clearly indicates that Michael - a created being - is not Jesus as proven by the Scripture verses from Daniel and Jude in my previous post.  Amir is clearly wrong, and I'll say it again - he's an excellent commentator when it comes to current events, but he's over his head when it comes to theology.  

As of now my previous decision stands -  his prophecy updates may be posted here, but until this matter is brought to a satisfactory conclusion, his Bible studies are still not permitted.  

[PrisonerOfHope]

Well, here's the video Amir promised. Yes, he did make the deity of Jesus clear, but he didn't address the issue of the Archangel Michael being a theophany of Jesus at all, nor did he repent of misleading people.

At least for now, the prohibition on posting any of his Bible studies stands until I have time to do further research on him.  

[PrisonerOfHope]

Well, in this week's prophecy update Amir defended his position about Michael being Jesus. He emphasized that his beliefs were not the same as those of the JWs, i.e., believing that Jesus and Michael are one and the same person.  The following video will start at that point:




Based upon what I heard on that first video, I never thought that his beliefs were exactly the same as that of the JWs, but it's clear that he (still) believes that the Archangel Michael was just one theophany of Jesus which, as noted in the first post, the Scriptures easily disprove. In the new video above, he never recanted of that belief. 

I haven't yet had a chance to check what Matthew Henry and Spurgeon actually said about those Scriptures; I'll check back when I do.  

At least for now, you can continue to post his prophecy updates, but I want to do some further research before his Bible teachings are permitted. As of right now, I still think he's a theological lightweight. 

[PrisonerOfHope]

Funny how things you need sometimes just appear when you need them!    This came up in my feed, so I started to listen to it as I was updating "Here's Your Sign."

As much as it pains me to admit it (because I dislike the man), Prasch did an excellent job on this video - that is, up until the point where he again begins to denigrate JD Farag, Jan Markell, and others who believe in the pre-trib rapture, which he obviously doesn't agree with. He does quote Matthew Henry and Spurgeon regarding the Archangel Michael, and I confess I have to agree with him: God called Amir to give commentaries on developments in the Middle East, and Prasch even admitted he does an excellent job and says he's encouraged people to listen to them.  Amir is trying to go beyond the scope of his calling, i.e., he's trying to be a Bible teacher as well, which isn't his gift - he isn't very good at rightly interpreting Scripture.

Listen to the first half or so of the video:

Well, the controversy over Amir continues.  


A Call For Repentance: God Waits For Steve Berger and Amir Tsarfati to Humble Themselves Before Him

BY GERI UNGUREAN IN UNCATEGORIZED





It certainly gives me NO pleasure in writing this piece. As a matter of fact, it breaks my heart.



I have wrestled with what I’m about to write for the last week.



I have prayed for God to show me if I was to expose the darkness which has seeped into, and is now permeating the Prophecy community. Today, I felt certain that it is God’s will for me to write about this.



God reminded me that the name of this Blogsite is “Absolute Truth From the Word of God.” How can I not write the truth from the Word of God on a topic of such magnitude and potential harm?



Steve Berger and his Wife Sarah



Many years ago, the Bergers (Steve and Sarah) experienced the death of their 19 year old son, Josiah. I cannot even imagine the pain this couple endured. The death of a child is one of the most difficult and heartbreaking events that any couple can face.



Before the death of Josiah, Steve Berger was a little known pastor of a small church. After the death of Josiah, Steve and Sarah wrote a book entitled: “Have Heart: Bridging the Gulf Between Heaven and Earth.”



In the midst of their pain and suffering, they wrote a book with the intent of bringing healing to other couples who have lost loved ones. Their emotions overtook them, and although they may have meant well, the Bergers encouraged others in the body of Christ to contact their deceased loved ones and to leave the door open for conversation with their dead.



God Warns About Speaking to the Dead



In 1 Samuel: 28, we are told a story about Saul. Samuel had died and Saul sent all spiritists and mediums from the land. But Saul’s continual state of rebellion against the counsel of God, he called back a medium – the witch of Endor to have her summon the spirit of Samuel.



The practice of speaking with the dead was banned in the land of Israel by God:



“When you come into the land of the Lord your God is giving you, you shall not learn to follow the abominable practices of those nations. There shall not be found among you anyone who burns his son or daughter as an offering, anyone who practices divination or tells fortunes or interprets omens, or a sorcerer or a charmer or a medium or a necromancer or one who inquires of the dead, for whoever does these things is an abomination to the Lord. And because of these abominations the Lord your God is driving them out before you” (Deuteronomy 18:9-12). (emphasis added).



This practice (Necromancy) is nothing but the Occult – Witchcraft – a practice which God has forbidden for His people.



But in this one case in all of Scripture, when Saul entreated the witch of Endor to summon the spirit of Samuel; God allowed it to happen. The spirit of Samuel gave Saul the grave news of his impending death, along with his sons the very next day.



The Berger’s Website



Haveheart.net



Who are these departed souls who seem to be communicating with loved ones?



I have been asked this question by unbelievers as well as Christians. God forbids us to speak with those who have died. But the mediums who hold these séances insist that they have made contact with the departed souls. It should not be difficult for the child of God to discern these “voices” are certainly not from our loved ones. So, who are they?



They are demons masquerading as the departed souls!



“And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works” (2 Corinthians 11: 14-15).



Amir Tsarfati



I remember the first time I watched Amir speaking at a Prophecy event. He was amazing. I began to research him. I wanted to read about his testimony of coming to Yeshua. I wanted to find out anything and everything I could about this Jewish brother in Christ!



Amir obviously loved the Lord so much and wanted the whole world to know that Jesus is the Messiah. I prayed for the Israeli people to hear Amir speak. I felt such power in his voice, and such excitement about Yeshua. I have loved the fact that Amir came to know Yeshua after watching “The Jesus Film.”



Meeting Steve Berger



I don’t know how Amir met Steve Berger, but recently I have seen the two together, speaking of upcoming events at which they both will be present. Before I knew anything about Steve Berger, I just thought that Amir found a new brother in Christ and is going to minister the Gospel with him.



But then I began reading about Steve Berger being deeply rooted in the NAR (New Apostolic Reformation) and if anything could be worse than being steeped in NAR teaching; I found out about the book teaching necromancy which became a best seller.



I also read that Steve Berger, who had pastored a small congregation before he wrote the book in 2010, was now a pastor of over 4000 people!



At first I wanted to believe that Amir did not know about Berger’s book based on necromancy, and also that Steve Berger was a NAR preacher. Amir is a busy man and travels extensively, sharing the Gospel. It was conceivable that he was just not aware of this man’s beliefs.



Behold Israel



But my hopes that Amir was not aware of the NAR teaching and the necromancy came crashing down. I saw many people (quite a few who had been admins for Amir) asking for him to denounce these evil practices and distance himself from Steve Berger, until a time when Steve would also repent.



But instead of having a conversation on Behold Israel with those who were attempting to tell him the truth; I was shocked to see Amir deleting their comments and deleting those who commented.


Steve and Amir together





The Will of God



Those of us in the body of Christ who are upset and worried by these heretical teachings of Steve Berger, and the anger shown by Amir when anyone brings this up – is more than a bit disconcerting.



Amir has a huge following and many of those people are most likely baby Christians, or even immature Christians. They hang on his every word because he is such a dynamic speaker. I believe that many of us are concerned for the spiritual welfare of these people. They are susceptible to false teaching and do not have the discernment to question these teachings.



We are asking for Repentance



I do not write this article to condemn Amir and Steve. I Am condemning doctrines of devils which the Word clearly tells us will be taught and believed by many in these last days.



Right now, many of us feel that this is being swept under the carpet, with the attitude “This will all fade away if we just ignore it.” THIS is not acceptable to us and especially not acceptable to our Lord Jesus.



I pray that in the coming days we see both Amir and Steve come forward in the Christian community and repent of these wicked ways.



God called David “A man after His own heart.” David had broken every commandment. So, what made God say such a think about David? It was because David had godly repentance when he sinned, and asked for God’s forgiveness because he knew that he had sinned against Him.



A prayer of repentance by King David



“Have mercy upon me, O God,



According to Your loving kindness;



According to the multitude of your tender mercies,



Blot out my transgressions.



Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity,



And cleanse me from my sin” (Psalm 51:1-2).



It is the prayer of my heart that Amir and Steve will have hearts like David – that they will ask forgiveness from God and Repent before Him.



I think that I can speak for the body of Christ when I say that we love these men, but we must ALWAYS love God and His Word more.



Shalom b’Yeshua



MARANATHA!
 

There are some very good comments; this one in particular stood out:

Thank you, Geri, for writing with such honesty. Knowing you as I do, it took a lot of courage for you to write this article because I know very well how much you have respected Amir. We have prayed together for his walk with the Lord as well as his ministry over this past year.



What is happening right now in the prophecy community is alarming. There is an old saying: Tell me who your friends are and I will tell you who you are. The bible explicitly instructs us to steer clear from those whose teachings are contrary to the word of God:



“I urge you, brothers and sisters, to watch out for those who cause divisions and put obstacles in your way that are contrary to the teaching you have learned. Keep away from them. For such people are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. (Romans 16:17-18)”



“Do not be misled: “Bad company corrupts good character. (1 Corinthians 15:33)”



“The word says that If anyone comes to your meeting and does not teach the truth about Christ, don’t invite that person into your home or give any kind of encouragement. Anyone who encourages such people becomes a partner in their evil work. (2 John 1:10-11)”



“I do not spend time with liars, nor do I make friends with those who hide their sin. I hate the company of evil people, and I won’t sit with the wicked. (Psalm 26:4-5)”



If we genuinely love Amir, then we need to stop making excuses for him and get down on our knees and pray. He is playing with fire and greatly lacking in wisdom and discernment right now.



The scriptures tell us that: “If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother. But if he does not listen, take one or two others along with you, that every charge may be established by the evidence of two or three witnesses. If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector. (Matthew 18:15-17)”



A host of believers who has been concerned for Amir have been trying to get through to him via Facebook, but what has he done? He has been deleting their posts and blocking them. This is not the way of the Lord, but the actions of a prideful man. I fear that it may not play out well for him if he continues down this path. We don’t want to see the enemy tarnish his credibility and steal his ministry.



What also concerns me is there are other leaders in the prophecy community who are close to Amir, and who have chosen to remain silent. People whose weekly “Prophecy Updates” and “Christian Ministries/Views” are reaching the masses weekly. People who I have dearly loved, respected and followed each week. I hope and pray they are talking with Amir and encouraging him to do the right thing. We must speak out and take a stand for the truth, if not, then we will be held accountable as well.



This is not to be taken lightly, but something we need to continually and diligently pray about. The article you wrote may potentially rile a few people Geri, but I think you did the right thing in bringing the truth to light. We have to stand up for what is right and true, even if it means we end up standing alone. God bless you for having the courage and boldness to speak the truth.

I just posted Amir's latest prophecy update.  The news portion is good, but you're right - his theology is awful!  Now he's teaching that people who reject the gospel before the rapture can't get saved during the Tribulation. 

[PrisonerOfHope]

As it now stands, it's permissible to post the Middle East updates from Amir, which he excels at, but frankly, he's not a qualified Bible teacher and we request that you not post his Bible studies.  Thank you. 

[jj]

ADMIT EDIT:  CRACKPOT ALERT! I'll leave this here for now until POH decides if she wants to save it or whatever.  The poster has been permanently banned.  Sad - there are a lot of sick people out there who really need a mental health professional. 



This will sound unbelivable and out of a science fiction movie, but it is very real. I am very spiritually sensitive and have a lot of mind control. I know what is my mind and what is not. I went to Israel to get baptised in the Jordan river, and asked Colleen (who I found out was one of them) from Kehilat Carmel if a pastor could baptise me. She said ‘no’ but later gave me ‘Chaim Malespins’ details who is co-founder of the Aliyah Return Center. It turns out I kept having spiritually-psychically invasive satanic experiences that ended up being qulite nefarious and very very clear and defined. I came clear to me that he was connected with the ‘inferno club’ of satanists, and felt the presenses of hillary, obama, george bush, soros (not as much) mainly obama, the apparent head of the operation with hillary a close second, like the head witch.
What I found over time which astounded me, was that they are tied in with the CIA, Mossad – and take over peoples minds – and then recruit them to work for them – unless they have a strong mind in Yeshua … which they repeatedly tried with me. Forget about earpieces and electronics – they now use telepathy which is very very clear and can be quite overwhelming. Netanyahu is very much a part of all this and does this. They take parts of a persons mind and experiences from them and relive them as that person, steal plans, passwords and technology. How do you thiink they know where all the arabs are planning attacks? They get into their heads.
What surprised me was that I experienced very clearly that Amir Tsarfati was one of them. Not only did I see he worked undercover for the Mossad/CIA but was a satanist like the rest of them. All of them are, that is part of the NWO and one world religion. I saw the pope as one of them also. They can astral travel, miniturize into your eye, left one usuallly or other parts of your brain – see all that you are doing – and tell you exactly – just so that you feel overwhelmed and give in to them. I also saw that Trump had 666 with a circle on the back of his head. He , the dems including nancy pelosi are all part of this and work together.
The bible says that this time will be worse than Noahs time. Now we can see why – most will not be able to resist this unless they truly have the Holy Spirit working within them, and will be taken over. The control – take over through the weakest parts of a person where there is least control – the sexual area – they will talk to you and tell you they are about to do that, and all of a sudden you feel their presence there moving around causing a person to feel stimulated, and that way take over a persons subconscious mind.
Sound unbelievable? unfortunately not ….tribulation has already begun and most dont even know it…
(Rev 12:11) And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

Yeah, he has "mind control" alright.  (sigh)  The man is obviously mentally ill.  I'll leave this here, at least for now, so readers can see what happens when you get involved in occult practices.  Pray for this guy if you feel so led.  

And no, the tribulation has NOT begun.
