In our last article, we saw how TPM Clergy uses the Carrot and Stick policy of Blessings and Curses to get money. This policy is used in other places also. For them, scripture has no relevance. They also do not consider that people like us can be led by the Spirit. These white clads have come to a conclusion that the directions from God have to come through their top Clergy. We at fromtpm.com strongly believe that each one of us can be directly led by the Spirit of God without any interference by these seducers.
26 I am writing these things to you about those who are trying to lead you astray. 27 As for you, the anointing you received from him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about all things and as that anointing is real, not counterfeit—just as it has taught you, remain in him. 1 John 2:26-27
Some Manipulations to Keep their Customers a.k.a Believers
The Category of people whom they classify as Believers are the ones which bring the money to keep this monster machinery working. Naturally, they cannot let go of their Customers. They need to do certain manipulations to keep them in their fold and control.
Replacing Jesus by their Clergy
One of these subtle manipulations is to replace the role of Jesus in their lives by these White clad clergy. Let us look at one sample comment put by a reader as proof. I am sure, you can recollect very similar instances in your own lives.
Notice the Tone of the highlighted text. They have already made up in their mind that if this lady does not follow their dictates, she will be left behind in Christ’s second coming. They equate loyalty to them as Loyalty to Jesus. Thank God for people like LD who gave heed to the anointing within her to reject these manipulative words. Assume a scenario where she could have left her ailing grandmother to go to the shouting and jumping sessions and be vulnerable to sermons coercing them to join this Cult Clergy. If she would have done that and her grandmother had died during that time, she would have lived with guilt within herself and not able to tell it to anyone. She would have ended up pretending that she did it all for Christ, knowing not that she was tricked into it for organization’s gimmicks.
I am sure you can recollect many times they did this kind of manipulations on you as well. At least you might have heard the clergy saying that if you do not come for tarrying meetings, you will not be caught up in the coming of the Lord.
Now, if you analyse what are they achieving by all these kinds of manipulations, you can be sure that there is an evil designer who is playing the prank. Most of these clergy folks are deceived themselves. They are doing this unknowingly. But knowingly or unknowingly, they are replacing the role of Jesus in the lives of their believers who are technically customers for the clergy.
Most of these manipulations are leveraging the emotions of a person. These are never on an intellectual level. Needless to say, most of their victims are females. They make them think that Jesus is some kind of finicky guy who needs to be comforted by these works of the organization.
Let us check out some other emotional manipulations they do on their believers.
- Believers think that these clergy folks get up early in the morning at 4:00 AM and Pray for them. In reality, most of them have a sound sleep during that time. Even if they do any prayers, it is just chanting of few “Praise the Lords” after mentioning their name from a long list of families. Believers are given the impression that they are somehow saved from many unfortunate incidents because these white clads are guarding them. At the same time, an impression develops in the mind of these believers that Jesus, The Holy Spirit and the Angels are quite powerless in their daily walk. Gradually over time, Jesus is replaced by these white clads. Now, do you understand why TPM Believers testify that their needs were met by the prayers of the Saints?
- TPM Believers have been brainwashed into thinking that to go in the coming of the Lord, we have to be perfect. Therefore, we can only be perfected by being in the group that can perfect us. So naturally, it is only TPM Clergy that has the perfecting license. Therefore, the other church organizations are all sub-standard people. This belief system brings in dependence on TPM Clergy to take them to the sweet bye and bye beyond the grave. Most of the TPM folks do not have any relationship with Jesus and is severely handicapped with having that communion with the Lord. The TPM Clergy has replaced the Lord with themselves. Now, do you know why TPM believers rush to their clergy with Prayer Requests for every small thing? The answer is that They do not have a relationship with the Father. They somehow need a Proxy for the connection.
TPM Believers are taught that the cause of the sickness in their clergy is because of the wrong deeds of the believers. They also believe that the and curse of their deeds is borne by these white clads. The clergy teaches all these deceptive unscriptural doctrines to manipulate the emotions of the people. Now consider what happens to the mind of a TPMer when he hears such a sermon. In a very subtle way, Jesus is being replaced as the Redeemer. His Stripes, death and resurrection is no more the key to our redemption. His work on the cross has been diluted by the Sickness and suffering of the TPM Clergy.
- TPM Believers consider their clergy as some sort of Holy Cow. They have been brainwashed into thinking that these people have left all their massive wealth, Loving families, Houses and friends to serve them. They are quite unaware of the background. Most of these clergies have never earned anything working in a secular job. So what have they got to leave? Moreover, it’s not true that they have left all of their possessions. In reality, they are asked to bring their inheritance to join this commune. People who bring less are considered lower in the group and that will affect their prospects of growth in the organization. Little do these believers realize these stunts. They somehow consider these Holy Cows at par with Jesus.
Conclusion
Our intention to spot these issues is not just to expose TPM. We would like you to be trained in discernment. The days we are living is truly evil and many people are ignorant that they are fodder for these crooks. The TPM Clergy is like the prostitute of Proverbs 7.
With persuasive words she led him astray; she seduced him with her smooth talk. Proverbs 7:11
Do not be like that ignorant fool who was convinced by her to be part of her sins.
21 With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips she forced him.
22 He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks;
23 Till a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it is for his life.
24 Hearken unto me now therefore, O ye children, and attend to the words of my mouth.
25 Let not thine heart decline to her ways, go not astray in her paths.
26 For she hath cast down many wounded: yea, many strong men have been slain by her.
27 Her house is the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death.
When I was distributing tracts or playing music, my Tpm uncle always said me that all these am doing bcz of my pride. He said me,”Jesus only did what His Father wanted, so u should only do what the Saints of God(Tpm saints) will ask u to do..If u do anything apart from that, then u have pride and God hates independent spirit. Look how Jesus was obedient to his parents, even if He was God, so u should unquestioningly obey the Saints of God”.
He was telling me all such things and wanted me to join Tpm ministry.
I have two examples of this manipulation from yesterday’s meeting. During benediction, Bro. Felix along with few other non-scriptural statements said this ” We must pray for a glorious end like the SOG’s”. Every one roared a great praise without realizing the great deceit behind this. This stumped me off. So again the reference was them and not Christ. Then we had a guest believer from US (I think some where from Florida). In his testimony he started off with his deep TPM legacy, connections with Pastor AC Thomas & Don and how he was instrumental in planting many TPM fellowships there in US. What astounded me was his following statement ” I used to receive letters from AC asking me to stick to our doctrine and not deviate ….and which he did…..He concluded by saying that he considered AC as his guiding light and wished to follow him….” Do I say more. I cant wait to see the shock on this man’s face when he stands on that day before the creator and be told ” I don’t know you…”
There is only one mediator between man and God. And there is no special time that only praying at 4 o clock in the morning will be heard. Also rules like 10 o clock night praising , all these are man made rules. True worship is Romans 12:1. All our curses are taken at the cross.
