Moriel Ministries

In this teaching, Charles Douglas, an 84-year-old retired pastor with decades of ministry experience, introduces a three-part series focused on discerning fake versus genuine anointing in an age saturated with voices, prophecies, and spiritual claims amplified by modern technology. Drawing carefully from Scripture—including 1 Corinthians 14, 2 Peter, Acts 8, Exodus, and Revelation—he warns against fabricated prophecies, sensationalism, and counterfeit spiritual power that exploit believers, dull discernment, and prepare the ground for greater end-time deception. With pastoral clarity and sober urgency, Douglas calls listeners to exercise sanctified common sense, test all claims against God’s Word, and maintain a balanced faith rooted in both heart and mind, laying the foundation for understanding genuine anointing and, ultimately, the rise of the false prophet and the beast to come. 

How Must I Forgive

What does biblical forgiveness actually look like in practice? In this lesson, Sandy Simpson explains how Christians are called to forgive—not emotionally, conditionally, or superficially—but biblically. Forgiveness is an act of obedience grounded in Christ’s sacrifice, not a feeling or a denial of wrongdoing. This teaching clarifies the difference between forgiving and excusing sin, forgiving and enabling, and forgiving and forgetting. Listeners are challenged to follow Christ’s model of forgiveness in truth, humility, and love.

Amos 2:6–3 — Crime and Punishment

The spiral tightens, and Amos now lands on Israel’s sins—crimes not merely “out there” among the nations, but inside the covenant community itself. Pastor Marco unpacks how God holds His own people to account for corruption, exploitation, and hypocritical religion, showing that privilege never cancels responsibility. In these chapters, God exposes the way injustice, greed, and spiritual compromise become systemic—and why judgment is not random but measured, moral, and deserved. This message confronts the false security of religious language without repentance, calling God’s people to sober self-examination, accountability, and a return to covenant faithfulness.

 Daniel’s Iron and Clay: Government, Principalities, and God’s Hand in the Rise and Fall of Nations (Part One) 

 In this first part of The Iron and the Clay, the teaching opens in Book of Daniel 2:21, unfolding a sweeping biblical framework for understanding history, politics, and prophecy through the lens of divine sovereignty. Drawing from Daniel, Zechariah, Job, Revelation, and modern history, the message explains how earthly events—wars, elections, governments, and global upheavals—are reflections of spiritual conflicts in the heavenlies involving angelic and demonic principalities. The study identifies three forces God uses to restrain evil: human government, the convicting work of the Holy Spirit, and the church functioning as salt and light—and warns what happens when all three fail. Tracing examples from ancient Israel to World War I, World War II, the Holocaust, the rebirth of Israel, and contemporary geopolitics, the teaching argues that God allows even evil rulers to rise in order to accomplish prophetic purposes, calling believers not to political obsession but to spiritual discernment, intercessory prayer, and biblical wisdom in understanding the times.

Using his testimony as a starting point,  this message tackles Jacob's assigned theme: how prophecy and evangelism are inseparably linked. Anchoring the talk in Isaiah 1:18 (“Come now, let us reason together”), he argues that the gospel is not a blind leap but intellectually credible and historically defensible, contrasting it with what he portrays as religion’s subjective claims and man-made attempts to reach God. Drawing from his own background in 1960s counterculture, leftist politics, science-minded skepticism, and occult involvement, he describes how the “Jesus Freak” revival confronted him with evidence he could not dismiss—especially fulfilled messianic prophecies and external historical attestations that forced him from trying to disprove Christianity to accepting Christ. He critiques alternative religious systems and Christian counterfeits, then pivots to end-times themes—Israel’s centrality, geopolitical convergence, cultural decay, and deception within the church—to emphasize urgency: personal mortality and global instability are “time bombs,” but the “blessed hope” is available now through repentance and faith in Jesus the Messiah. 

 Continuing his exposition of Jeremiah 15, Jacob Prasch presents a sobering theology of judgment, repentance, and perseverance for believers living amid apostasy. He explains that when a nation—or a church—passes a moral point of no return, God may cease calling it to repentance and instead give it over to judgment, even while still calling individuals to faithfulness. Tracing the chapter’s imagery of fourfold doom and its fulfillment across Scripture, Prasch connects Jeremiah’s anguish to Christ’s own suffering, showing how the prophet typifies the rejected Messiah and, by extension, the faithful remnant in every age. He emphasizes the necessity of “eating the Word”—allowing Scripture to be fully internalized—so that it becomes both a joy and a burden, sweet in the mouth yet bitter in the stomach. Addressing discouragement, isolation, and righteous indignation, Prasch underscores God’s promise to preserve those who refuse compromise: believers must extract what is precious from what is worthless, resist conformity to apostasy, and trust that even in persecution God will ultimately redeem them from the hand of the violent and the wicked. 

 In Ken’s Corner Episode 81, James Kitazaki and Ken Smith (joined by Brett) discuss a range of current-events headlines, cultural trends, and theological issues through a Christian worldview. Topics include disputed claims about public health and cancer statistics, allegations of large-scale fraud involving public programs, concerns about expanding surveillance powers in Germany, debate over annihilationism versus historic Christian teaching on eternal judgment, and new polling data suggesting continued decline in religious commitment in the United States. The episode closes with a pastoral exhortation from James 4:8—a reminder to pursue repentance, humility, and daily nearness to God. 

From 12/18/25 on Moriel TV YouTube and Rumble.

This week Sandy begins a multi-week series on forgiveness.  In this opening lesson, Sandy Simpson exposes the spiritual, emotional, and even physical damage caused by unforgiveness. Drawing from Scripture, personal testimony, and real-world examples, he shows how bitterness becomes a root that grows into anger, violence, self-destruction, and spiritual bondage. Unforgiveness is not a harmless attitude—it gives the enemy a foothold and robs believers of healing, peace, and intimacy with Christ. This teaching lays the groundwork for understanding why forgiveness is not optional for Christians, but essential for spiritual health and freedom.
