Kim Clement misses the mark yet again
by Steve Lumbley, Apostasy Watch!
Not long ago I featured Kim Clement as my heretic of the week. His latest so
called prophecies qualifies him as my first 2 time winner.
Sept 10 – The Spirit of the Lord says, “Iniquity has presented itself in a very
unusual fashion in this nation. I want you to watch the debates of the elect,”
said the spirit of the Lord. Something unusual shall take place during a 2nd
debate that shall cause this nation to begin to fear and tremble. The Spirit of
the Lord says that, “I will destroy the bondage that has come in. That a very
unusual iniquity has entered in to the law and the economy.” But the spirit of
the Lord says, “Let the prophet prophesy tonight. That I will open up the
heavens at the 2nd debate - at the 2nd meeting,” says the Lord. “I will bring
something unusual to happen. There shall be a threat against the President
Elect.” But the Spirit of the Lord says, “I will multiply the grace upon this
nation. And I will show you once again that there is nothing too hard for the
Lord to do. There shall be a shaking. There shall be a shaking in the
Presbyterian church.” God says, “People shall have unusual baptisms of the Holy
Spirit,” says the Lord.
Kim Clement – Albany New York. Sept 10 2004
I watched the 2nd debate and the only thing that made me “fear and tremble” was
the thought that John Kerry might actually become president. This so called word
of the lord is cited on Clements website and as of 10-10-04 was also featured on
the Elijah List website even though by now it is obviously false.
Read these words carefully and it becomes apparent that this man is just a
babbler. What exactly is a “very unusual iniquity”? The dictionary defines
iniquity as an injustice, an immorality or an immoral act. How does an injustice
or immoral act “enter in to the law”? I understand that one could classify many
laws as immoral but how does immorality “enter into” the law? How does an
injustice “enter into” the economy?
And what exactly did this mean, “That I will open up the heavens at the 2nd
debate - at the 2nd meeting,” says the Lord.”?
This man is the very definition of a cloud without water (Jude 1:12). He has the
ability to talk much but say little.
Clement tried to claim a partial fulfillment of this prophecy on his website by
linking to a CNN story about a threat against the president. That threat however
was centered around the first debate, not the second. Clement has recently
removed that link..
At the same Albany N.Y. meeting on Sept 9th Clement returned to one of his past
false prophecies claiming that America will capture “Al Qaeda”
….And it’s September the 11th Saturday and the prediction is this: They will be
captured, they will be brought before the world, (Al Qaeda) that this victory
will be one of the greatest America has ever acquired and then suddenly 19
nations will join-in in a great battle against terrorism……
Kim Clement Albany N.Y. Sept. 9, 2004
Clements continued puffing of the war on terror reminds me of the false prophet
of Ahab who told him to go up and take back Ramoth Gilead.
1 Kings 22:16
Then the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, about four hundred men,
and said unto them, Shall I go against Ramothgilead to battle, or shall I
forbear? And they said, Go up; for the Lord shall deliver it into the hand of
the king.
False prophets never change. They always prophesy peace and safety. They always
prophesy victory and success.
In a recent appearance on TBN Kim Clement stated that he is often asked why he
doesn’t prophesy “doom & gloom” like the prophets of old. He said this country
didn’t need doom and gloom. What this country needed said Clement was hope!
I say what this country needs is the truth.
The truth is that we are a self righteous, stubborn, stiff necked people. The
truth is that God has drawn us into the war on terror not because we are so good
and righteous but for our ultimate judgment. It doesn’t really matter who the
president is because God is in charge and God is causing all this to happen.
True prophets always called the people and the leaders back to God. True
prophets always called for repentance. Clement never tells the church they need
to repent. He never tells us that we are far from God. He only speaks smooth
words. Words that make the people feel good about themselves. Words that make
people fell secure in their apostasy and sin. Just like the false prophets of
Ahab’s time.
I recently attended one of Clements prophetic gatherings sponsored by Mike Hayes
Covenant Church in Carrollton. I came away with a better understanding of how
this man operates.
There was nothing in that meeting that was glorifying to God. All the so called
worship songs were man centered. It was all about what WE were doing or what WE
were going to do. Nothing was directed toward Him. Clement even led the crowd in
a song that was really more of a chant;
Spirit, spirit, we receive your fire….spirit, spirit, we receive your fire!
Where does that come from? I’m not an expert on witchcraft but I’ll tell you the
whole evening had a very cultic feel to it. A dark auditorium, flashing lights,
loud rock and roll music with a heavy bass line, repetitive lyrics extolling
warfare. A very worldly atmosphere. And the sad thing was that hundreds of
Christians of all ages were totally sucked into this environment
Kim Clement is not a prophet. He is a sorcerer. He operates by the power of
witchcraft. That is why some of his “prophecies” seem to come to pass and some
don’t. Just like Jannes and Jambres, Pharaoh’s magicians were able to duplicate
some of Moses’ miracles Clement is able seemingly to foretell some events before
they happen. But because Satan is not omnipotent and because God is sovereign
Clement doesn’t really see anything. In fact I believe that those events he
seems to predict are actually being called into being by him and by those to
whom he prophecy’s.
Deut 13:1-3
If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and giveth thee a
sign or a wonder, And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto
thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us
serve them. Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that
dreamer of dreams: for the LORD your God proveth you, to know whether ye love
the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
In other words a prophet may speak correctly about a certain event but if his
words don’t agree with the words of the bible we are to reject him. He is
proclaiming another Jesus, a Jesus not found in scripture. God has actually
allowed it to test you to see if you will follow that false Jesus.
Don’t fall for it. We have a more sure word of prophecy. The word of the Lord
Jesus
2 Peter 1:19
We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take
heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the
day star arise in your hearts:
