John Ramirez At Time Square Church

[Mericole]

Newsflash, idiot: Satan isn't even a part of Santeria. They don't worship the devil, seeing as they don't HAVE one. Apparently, you're too idiotic to even use Wikipedia. But I'm not surprised: technology is probably beyond you reactionary, logic-allergic cultists. Yes, cultists. Christianity is a beautiful religion, but this man spreads hate. You, sir, do not walk with the Lord. God is love, and your gospel of filth stinks more of the "Devil" and racism than Jesus.

[norma007fyi]

When you go against God whom created you, you open open the door to the enemy and there will be consequences for your own actions. God tells us choose life not death. God's Spirit is alive and still with us, he is merciful and full compassion. I ask you to REPENT! and see the salvation of the Lord. Do not judge anyone but lets not be ignorant of the devil's devices. The reason Pastor Ramirez testimony stands firm today is because he was delivered by the Power of God and no one can match that!

[norma007fyi]

Cult religions, Eastern religion or any teaching such as Zen, Tao, Buddha, Hare Krishna, Transcendental meditation, I Ching, Reincarnation, Karma, Yoga, Kabala, Metaphysics, New age, any philosophy that denies the deity of Jesus. God is very against it and he warns us about it. We should not follow those people that disobey the Lord. We should never get involved with witchcraft of any kind. There is no such thing as white magic, it goes against what God tells us.

[norma007fyi]

(astrology, divination, witchcraft, sorcery, and other occult practices) ... Yes, the Bible takes a clear position on this subject, strongly denouncing these practices also Mexican sun gods, idols, incense, Buddha, hand carved objects from Africa or the Orient, Ouija boards, anything connected with astrology, horoscopes, fortune telling, and so on. Books or objects associated with witchcraft, good luck charms (mood rings, four leaf clovers, rabbit's foot, horse shoes),

[norma007fyi]

God tells us very clearly in :2 Corinthians 4:4 : Satan, who is the god of this world, has blinded the minds of those who don't believe. Many people are alive but are spiritually dead, they do not have a personal relationship with their creator, therefore deny the fact that these things that exist in our time. One of the the things that Jesus did the most in his ministry was the cast of demons.

[norma007fyi]

almighty jelly bean. This is in response to your Nov 9 comment. First of all lets define the word "necromancy" , is the blackest of all the black arts is undoubtedly necromancy, the ancient method of communication with the dead. Did you read this? Also when we do deliverance we do not do rituals but spiritual warfare as the Holy Spirit which is soverign as the manifestation of Almighty God leads! Also the bible declares and speaks of the Blood of the Lamb (Jesus) that was shed at the cross.

[Valdeezy2]

@AlmightyJellybean it would be necromancy if Jesus was DEAD but Hes not

[jsuarez713]

ALL OF YOU WHO BELIEVE IN THIS LIER AND HIS LIES ARE GOING STRAIT TO HELL!!! HE IS A LIAR!!

[Thebrideisready]

God bless John!

[subwayguns]

This is a joke and a lie. Misinformation and he shold have some witchcraft placed under his behind. Typical of an Evangelical exaggerator or a Domincan trying to be a Puerto Rican or Cuban and couldn't fit in. MIINFOORMING THE GENERAL PUBLIC. SHAME ON YOU JOHN. No one in the Bronx knows you. Get a life and try doing that to Islam

[hadassah1965]

AMEN, AMEN, AMEN!

[norma007fyi]

We cannot longer play church and denied the amount of people that need deliverance. As children of God we cannot be ignorant to the devices of the devil. God is more that willing to set us free. GOD MOST HIGH power is much greater than any evil force. Let's never forget that the enemy recognizes authority, look at Acts 19:13-17. . Demons recognize authority, make sure you are right with God first. Hosea 4:6 declares "My people are destroyed form lack of knowledge"

[norma007fyi]

I cannot be playing with demons, I have go cast them out so I need to apply my Spiritual Warfare weapons like fasting, the Blood of Jesus, using the Word of God like Jesus did when tempted by the devil. Pray to the Holy Spirit to give you the strategies & steps you must take to go into Spiritual Warfare. People that do not know Spiritual Warfare would never comprehend what entails and how tormenting it is. He speaks because he experience it 1st hand.

[norma007fyi]

Many of these people that need deliverance are victims or themselves have opened the door to the enemy to enter to bring chaos into their lives. One thing to remember is that many times people do not want to let go of their sin or the very thing that keeps them in bondage or refuse to repent, that gives demons legal rights to torment their lives. Also we need to apply discernment, read 1 John 4:1 where God admonishes us to test the spirits.

[norma007fyi]

We believe when the weatherman tells us is going to rain tomorrow. Still people cannot believe that these things happen. We must learn from our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ because one of the main thing he did was set people free and delivered people tormented by the devil.

I live in South Florida, USA where you have a lot witchcraft, Santeria from Cuba, Voodoo from Haiti, Macumba from Brazil. There is a great need for deliverance in this region, even when you are on a plane you can sense it.

[hadassah1965]

@norma007fyi A plane going where? Florida? I have to make a trip there to decide on some very important matters, and just wondering if this is one of the directions that God wants me to go. Please reply, cause I can relate to your comments about spiritual warfare, as well as, Pastor Ramirez' testimony. I too aloud the enemy to enter in my life, unknowingly at first, but then following up when I was in error. But JESUS saved me and I am eternally greatful of Jesus entering my life.

The devil always shows up to justify his religion. Santeria, Palo Mayombe, spiritualism and all of these diabolical practices, which they call "cultural," not only bleed you to death money-wise, but these ceremonies usually cost hundreds and many times thousands of dollars, and in Palo Mayombe you get cut on your flesh, which they call scratched, so you can bleed and sign the contract with the devil when he shows up at 12 midnight.

[jr10128]

So if this guy, laroye3, knows anything or is part of this occult, which they call "the religion," he should know that this is a fact. But just like the devil, always lying, always sugar-coating, because all his religion leads to is death and hell in the end. But Christianity and the cross of Jesus Christ and salvation, which is free, leads to eternal life, and your residence will be heaven. Sincerely, John Ramirez

[safire4real]

Amen amen praise god this testimony is on fire!!

[laroye3]

This man who has been "touched" by God seems to have his religions mixed up. If he was a Santeria "High Priest" for many years as he says he was he would know that in Santeria one does not get cut and blood is not shed. Oh! the lies one will say to get the spotlight put on them to make themselves feel good.

[laroye3]

It always amazes me how when someone isn't Christian, whatever they believe is of the Devil. A lot of religions that are not Christian were around THOUSANDS of years before Christianity was invented. Yes! I said INVENTED. What if when you get touched the "Holy Spirit" it is really the spirit of the Devil?

[sexybori17]

JOHN RAMIREZ !! I READ UR BOOK AND I AM ONLY 14 YEARS OLD !! THE BOOK WAS OUT OF THE DEVILS CAULDRON ! when i read it i was like " what were u thinkin of getting into devil worshippin and stuff like SHEESHH " but im glad that Jesus christ revealed himself to you thats very awesome !

[Okanadekun]

What exactly is 3rd rank in Santeria? Passing the baton...huh!

[AlignedwithChrist]

There is some serious Holy Fire at the end of that testimony. It's still on me. Praise God

[jouninge]

Brother John,I am so glad that i can watch again your testimony.I was there when you shared your testimony at Times Square Church.

Wonderfull testimony! Glory to God in the highest!

[YTWOA]

Jesus is Lord WATCH THIS!!!!!! ohhhhhhhh my God is amazing!

[revjohnramirez]

Theres no good side to this religion, no matter how much you try to sugarcoat it—whether you call it white magic or black magic, and thats not including the onslaught of the countless animals that you kill for their blood, when the Lamb of God, Jesus Christ, shed the ultimate blood at the cross for you. I will have you in my deepest prayers that someday you will have an encounter with Jesus Christ too.

[revjohnramirez]

the actions of the mediums and those who attend the party, all you do is serve liquor and cigars to those who call themselves mediums and get demon-possessed by these entities. But you call your religion to be holy and connected to Jesus Christ? Thats an oxymoron. I believe that those who serve this religion not only serve the devil but are in denial of the truth.

[revjohnramirez]

Those who are in this so-called religion, Santeria and espiritismo, have been blinded by their daddy, the devil. They lend their bodies out as mediums to diabolical forces, and as they get possessed their faces transform into these diabolical entities. When you attend these parties, which are most the time in basements of peoples houses, throughout the evening and the night theres no mention whatsoever of Jesus Christ, the cross, and the resurrection.

[oba888]

another con by the christians. this guy OBVIOUSLY was not involved. he has no credibility whats so ever. he simple lies.

[RicoRicanNYC]

@oba888 No he's for real....

[Esudina]

This guy is obviously confused & was surely taken for a ride; it happens in ALL faiths. That doesn't give anyone the right to say the blatantly preposterous bs that people constantly say about us. I do not have anything against Christians, nothing. I do have a problem when they try to demonize my faith. It makes you look radically stupid. Jesus said "love your brother as you love thyself". You might want to start practicing what you preach...

[Esudina]

It has taken us more than 500 years to get away from the stigma that a few ignorant fools have created for us. Do your homework. Talk to a reputable priest & ask him/her what we believe in. If you took the time to investigate a little further, you'll see that we are just like you. We do not go around raping young boys, mistreat & belittle women or create war against our fellow man, unlike other world faiths.

[Esudina]

Our religion teaches us to cultivate "iwa pele" or gentle character. It is a religion that places the responsibility on an individual's shoulders for the actions they commit. It is a religion of community, filial bonds & self respect. We believe in ONE SUPREME GOD. We do not recognize the concept of one "supreme diabolical entity"; rather, we accept that we have to choose between what is right & wrong.

[Esudina]

Idiots! Idiots! Idiots! This is exactly the disinformation that has given our religion & other ATR's such a bad rap. People, the real "Devil" is US. It is human beings who commit heinous acts & the say "the Devil made me do it". Please. Stop the lies & ignorance. Notwithstanding the few morons who also commit all kinds of mischief in the name of our religion (and those are the ones that are always portrayed in the media).

[HeavensHelp1]

What a WONDERFUL story! This guy literally sold his soul, but, in the end, was saved. Christ is sooooooo GOOD!

[doc362]

Well good for him. Maybe he was associated with the wrong people & was delivered some place else. The ones who seek to cause imbalance to the universe by casting sympathetic magic on folks don't deserve to be priest in the tradition anyway. Santeria is an offshoot of an indigenous tradition of the Yoruba. Look in your bible people for the definition of the word 'adversary' & you will learn that the devil is not some red being with horns & a pitchfork.

[NarutoCosplays]

I was there on that night. Incredible testimony

[Busolishi]

Thank you Lord. Only we can see with our spiritual eyes the evil forces that is around us everyday in nyc. The Lord will reveal them all at the due season. I n Jesus Name.

[iRunNewYork212]

I Was There When That Happened .. It Was Crazy..

[xxxV3N0IVIxxx]

praise god!!!! see the devil is weak!!he can't beat the mighty jesus!!!!

[gbologa]

Jesus already won the victory against the evil on that wonderful cross. Here is a testimony that God can bring you back even from the pits of hell. Praise God!!!
