Anyone know Tony Alamo?
Anyone here familiar with the name Tony Alamo?
(CNN) -- Federal and state police raided an evangelist's compound in Arkansas late Saturday to investigate whether any children have been physically or sexually abused, officials said. ------------------ Some folks might remember him as the guy whose followers have distributed millions of tracts on car windshields all across America.http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...-Wipermail.jpg (click for bigger picture) |
Re: Anyone know Tony Alamo?
Have read his literature ... his group was pretty active in distributing it in NY, TR.
Guy has been arrested for tax evasion ... and seems to be involved in polygamy and sexual child abuse .... all under the guise of Christian fundamentalism |
Re: Anyone know Tony Alamo?

Re: Anyone know Tony Alamo?

Alamo raid is third for ministry |
Re: Anyone know Tony Alamo?
The old Alamo compound during the 70's-early part of the 90's was about 15 miles west of me in a little place called Dyer, Arkansas. I think the Dyer community was his late wife Susan's birthplace. The "church" congregation lived on a several hundred acre farm. Some of the people were good people at that time and others were crazy. Many of them had come off the streets of southern California and been connected with Alamo in the Jesus movement I believe. They all had colorful pasts.
The story is long and I don't know how much of what I've heard down through the years is true. The short version is they ran a gas station and restaraunt in neighboring Alma, AR. They also made designer denim jackets worn by a lot of celebs in the 80's and 90's selling for several thousand dollars. From what I've heard from locals his wife Susan was a little strange but did preach some biblical truth and didn't go as far left as Tony did after her death. When she died, he did lots of weird stuff like pray for her to be resurrected for months and then moved on to polygamy and child brides. Many people in western Arkansas and the entire state had wondered how long this would go on before the proper authorities stepped in. The guy definitely deserves to be incacerated and kept away from children. The forum I'm linking you to shut down in January of this year, but I read it quite a bit until then. A lot of the former "church" members discussed what went on at length. http://www.factnet.org/discus/messag...tml?1200518438 |
Re: Anyone know Tony Alamo?
Yes , I live in Arkansas, and I am aquainted with that group very well. they have been a disgrace and a blot on the name of Christianity for years around here. I dreaded to even drive past the place while visiting my grandson at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville. the best comparrison I can think of to describe them is they reminded me of the Moonies that used to walk around with blank stares peddling stuff for that korean guy Moon. Alamo was not just charged with Tax Evasion, he was tried in Federal Court and convicted of it. he needs to be put out of buisness for good.

Re: Anyone know Tony Alamo?
More details have come out regarding this case...
LITTLE ROCK, Arkansas (AP) -- A federal magistrate called Tony Alamo a flight risk Wednesday as he ordered the evangelist held without bail until his trial on charges that he took a minor across state lines for sex. The ruling came after Alamo's former followers testified at a hearing that they were often beaten at his instructions and one said Alamo practiced polygamy with several females, including a 9-year-old girl. U.S. Magistrate Judge Barry Bryant noted that Alamo is charged with a violent crime. He said he also considered that Alamo fled a California child-abuse charge in 1989 and was arrested two years later in Tampa, Florida, living under an assumed name http://www.cnn.com/2008/CRIME/10/22/....ap/index.html |
Re: Anyone know Tony Alamo?
What a before and after picture in those stories. If these things are true he is a sick, disgusting man who desperately needs to pay.

Re: Anyone know Tony Alamo?
One of the former ministry children turned on the Oprah show to watch. He immediately turned it off after hearing Desiree lie and say she was married to Tony at 8 years old, living in his house. He said, "How could she be living as one of Tony's wives at 8, when she was my next door neighbor when she was 12?"
Nikki Farr lied about not being on the property for 11 years. She was seen with two guys come onto the property trespassing and trying to stir up trouble. Nikki Farr NEVER had to escape the ministry all she had to do was to ask and the ministry would have given her a bus ticket anywhere she wanted to go or she could have just walked out the door. No one in the ministry is kept t there against their will. Oprah hates drivers who are distracted and she is having a show on this soon. I wonder if 3 DUI's would be considered a distraction? If so, then Nikki Farr would be the perfect person for Oprah to invite. It doesn't take much for some people to ruin the lives of the innocent like Pastor Alamo and the ministry parents and children, whose lives have been ruined by a few liars, who for the love of money and a bit of fame will help the government to set up the innocent people of God. There was absolutely NO evidence to convict Pastor Alamo just lying testimonies from these former members the Vatican controlled government used to frame Pastor Alamo. These girls were offered 15,000. to go to Wellsprings, (A Catholic founded and controlled federal anti-Christian witness deprogramming camp.) called ICSA. You can check this out for yourself. They (The Vatican, Jesuits) are the very ones that Pastor Alamo exposes for their murders, genocides and many atrocities. They now control our governments. To hear a former FBI agent talk about how he was hired to frame (assassinate) Pastor Alamo go to this link and click on this interview and read the web site. (below) Let's see if Oprah will take up this former FBI agents request to be on her show. People NEED to hear both sides of the story. Is Oprah really about presenting the truth or is she just another talk show host out for her own fame and fortune and high ratings? Greg Szymanski's radio interview with John Peeler A former government agent who refused to target Pastor Alamo April 29, 2010 LISTEN TO THIS ½ INTERVIEW YOU WILL BE VERY SURPRISED TO HEAR THIS!!!! http://www.alamoministries.com/conte...ish/index.html Also see this video: The truth about Tony Alamo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PbW4WsnIfqc AND READ THE TRUTH AT WWW.ALAMOMINISTRIES.COM |
Re: Anyone know Tony Alamo?
I'm not familiar with Tony Alamo.
Is he considered oneness or trinity or what? |
Re: Anyone know Tony Alamo?
Who is this "former ministry children"? and did HE testify in Tony's defense?

Re: Anyone know Tony Alamo?
Good grief...peeler? This guy is just another conspiracy nut who makes the rounds on all the alien/conspiracy radio shows.

Re: Anyone know Tony Alamo?
Unchangeable Power
Some demonic newspapers are asking since Tony is in prison, why is the ministry still going on. When God establishes a ministry, only God can take it down. Pastor Alamo is in prison, but Jesus isn’t. The truth, the Word of God, cannot be bound. Jesus is watching all of you, and no matter how hard you try, you’re going to stand in judgment before Him because you know that Pastor Alamo is innocent, as Jesus was innocent, and the Apostle Paul was innocent. He knows all of you. You may not believe in Him now, but you will. Another Pearl Harbor This is the reason why the FBI and all the different government agencies are after Alamo with a pack of lies. Those three girls that testified lied and they were brain-dirtied by the Cult Awareness Network which is now being called Wellspring. |

CHEWING THEIR TONGUES FOR PAIN (Revelation 16:10)
by Tony Alamo Regarding the plagues being poured out on the earth from the seven angels, under the supervision and orders of God, Revelation 16:10-11 states, “And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast [the beast is Rome’s one world government and his seat is Rome, Italy, the Vatican]; and his kingdom was full of darkness [filled with darkness, without the knowledge and the works of God, filled only with the works of Satan—the devil! His kingdom up till this time was the world. Now God is taking back the kingdom to Himself.1]; and they gnawed their tongues for pain, And blasphemed the God of Heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds.” What deed did they not repent of? The answer is in the Word of God! If you believe in the dragon, the beast, and the false prophet, and believe the things they say are right, these are the deeds of which you have not repented, deeds such as blaspheming God, persecuting His people and His name, which is His Word, His Son, and all the other sins promulgated by the devil, his government, and his false prophet, the church of Rome, which is also the head of the United Council of “Churches.” These sins include blasphemy, homosexuality, lesbianism (not the natural use of the woman), abortion, persecutions of every sort, adultery, fornication, lying, false accusations, every robbery of innocent American and foreign people with unjust taxes, spending this tax money on evil things, murder, and imprisoning the innocent. Revelation 16:13 tells us precisely who is making the world a desolation: “And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon [the devil], and out of the mouth of the beast [the people of the one-world government, those who worship and serve this evil-thinking wild beast)], and out of the mouth of the false prophet [Rome’s double-tongued popes and clergy].” Why are they doing this? “For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty” (Revelation 16:14). In response, Jesus says, “Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments [without sin], lest he walk naked, and they see his shame” (Rev. 16:15).2 Someone told me the other day about the judge who had me put in jail and taken our beautiful and godly children away from their parents, our people, and gave these children to the Department of Human Services for adoption because their parents go to my church, and I preach the Bible. The Bible speaks about gnawing on your tongue for pain,3 as well as God’s approval for some godly men to have two or more wives and the legal age of marriage at puberty. Puberty means adulthood. Webster’s dictionary agrees with the Bible. Webster’s Dictionary says childhood is from birth till puberty. This was also the law of the U.S. when some government officials had the true God as their God. Now they say it is a sin to teach the Bible. These are haters of God and all humanity. Homosexuality was, until recently, even against the law of the land, yet these devils are making it legal, and making marriage at puberty, which is legal, illegal.4 Is it any wonder that God is cursing these people who are possessed with unclean spirits? As I was saying, someone reported to me that Judge Jim Hudson, the one who did all these evil things to the Word of God, our parents, our children, and me, is gnawing his tongue for pain as he is in the hospital with cancer. He was grinding his teeth so badly that it sounded like he was cracking walnuts.5 It is so sad that people do this to themselves. I was told that the judge’s condition is reported daily on the internet. The website is www.caringbridge.org. (Update: Judge Hudson passed away.) Galatians 6:7-8 says, “Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For he that soweth to his flesh [as the devil tells him] shall of the flesh reap corruption [such as cancer]; but he that soweth to the SPIRIT shall of the SPIRIT reap life everlasting.” The hell people think they are going through in this world is nothing in comparison to the pain they will eternally go through in Hell.6 That pain will never end, but will continually intensify. Just when you think it can’t get worse, it will get worse until you will hope you pass out cold or die. However, that never will happen. Why don’t you repent now before it’s too late? Do it now by saying this prayer to God. Prayer My Lord and my God, have mercy upon my soul, a sinner. 1 I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of the Living God. 2 I believe that He died on the cross and shed His precious blood for the forgiveness of all my sins. 3 I believe that God raised Jesus from the dead by the power of the Holy Spirit 4 and that He sits on the right hand of God at this moment, hearing my confession of sin and this prayer. 5 I open up the door of my heart and I invite You into my heart, Lord Jesus. 6 Wash all of my filthy sins away in the precious blood that You shed in my place on the cross at Calvary. 7 You will not turn me away, Lord Jesus, You will forgive my sins and save my soul. I know because Your Word, the Bible says so. 8 Your Word says that You will turn no one away, and that includes me. 9 Therefore, I know that You have heard me, and I know that You have answered me, and I know that I am saved. 10 And I thank You, Lord Jesus, for saving my soul, and I will show my thankfulness by doing as You command and sin no more. 11 |
Re: Anyone know Tony Alamo?
GO AHEAD, MOCK MY NAME
by Tony Alamo Elisha was a farmer (a husbandman). He was plowing with several friends, and was using the twelfth plow. The Prophet Elijah was on his way from Horeb to Damascus. He found Elisha, and threw his mantle upon Elisha’s shoulders, which was a token of investiture with the prophet’s office. It was also a gesture of his adoption as a son. Elisha accepted the call. He delayed the call only to kiss his mother and father farewell and to give a feast of farewell to his people. After this, he followed Elijah and ministered unto him (I Kings 19:19-21). Nothing more is mentioned of Elisha in scripture until he accompanied his master to the other side of the Jordan, where he witnessed Elijah’s ascension. He picked up Elijah’s fallen mantle, parted the waters of Jordan, then was welcomed by the sons of the prophets as the successor of the prophet Elijah (II Kings 2:1-15). After this, Elisha dwelt at Jericho (II Kings 2:18). The city had been newly built by a person named Hiel (I Kings 16:34), according to Joshua the son of Nun. Jericho was also the residence of a body of the “sons of the prophets” (II Kings 2:5). While he was living there, the people complained to him of the foulness of Jericho’s waters. He remedied the foul evil taste by throwing salt into the source of the water in the name of Jehovah (II Kings 19:22). Elisha then left Jericho and went to Bethel. When he was getting near Bethel, he was met by a number of children who mocked him, crying, “Go up, you bald head.” They no doubt heard that Elijah was taken up to Heaven and thought it something funny to joke about it. This was showing dishonor to God by dishonoring His prophet. Then two female bears came out of the woods and tore up forty-two of the children. Elisha went from there to Mount Carmel in Haifa, Israel, and from there he went to Samaria (II Kings 2:23-24). The children torn to pieces are said by some to have been influenced to mock Elisha by their idol-worshipping parents, and that by the children’s deaths, the people of Bethel were to know that to dishonor GOD’S PROPHETS was to dishonor Him. Prayer My Lord and my God, have mercy upon my soul, a sinner. 1 I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of the Living God. 2 I believe that He died on the cross and shed His precious blood for the forgiveness of all my sins. 3 I believe that God raised Jesus from the dead by the power of the Holy Spirit 4 and that He sits on the right hand of God at this moment, hearing my confession of sin and this prayer. 5 I open up the door of my heart and I invite You into my heart, Lord Jesus. 6 Wash all of my filthy sins away in the precious blood that You shed in my place on the cross at Calvary. 7 You will not turn me away, Lord Jesus, You will forgive my sins and save my soul. I know because Your Word, the Bible says so. 8 Your Word says that You will turn no one away, and that includes me. 9 Therefore, I know that You have heard me, and I know that You have answered me, and I know that I am saved. 10 And I thank You, Lord Jesus, for saving my soul, and I will show my thankfulness by doing as You command and sin no more. 11 You've just completed the first step in a series of five steps which are necessary to receive salvation. Your second step is to deny yourself and take up the cross daily for the purpose of mortifying your flesh, that is, for putting to death your own will, your soulful self, and the world with all of its lusts. All these must be baptized into the watery death of Christ. Step three is your resurrection from the satanic life of Adam unto the sinless life of Christ. Step four is your ascension into a position of authority to reign for God with Christ on earth, and the fifth step is to reign for God in Christ on earth to the end for the purpose of bringing about the kingdom of Heaven on earth. You must learn the Word of God, then submit yourselves one to another and do what the Word says, so that the church and the world may see evidence of your submission to God's Word, His order, and His authority in and by you. Praise the Lord. May God bless and reward you abundantly. Yours in the wonderful name of Jesus, Pastor Tony Alamo |
Re: Anyone know Tony Alamo?
THE CHRISTIAN CHAMPION
by Tony Alamo When we read the Bible, we see that to avoid temptation, we must be sitting with Christ in Heavenly places, because temptations lose their power when Jesus is nigh.1 If we are that close to Jesus, we have surrendered all our life to Him.2The benefit for doing this is absolute power over temptation.3There isn’t anything more important than to be assured of a sinless life. If we don’t have peace because of not being close to Jesus (sitting with Him in Heavenly places by the HOLY SPIRIT), then we have no peace. We are constantly bombarded with the devil’s entire arsenal.4It is too dangerous to gamble like this with your eternal soul. The devil is “the prince of the power of the air” (Eph. 2:2). If we are not sitting with Jesus in Heavenly places (Eph. 2:6), we are perfect targets, sitting ducks for the devil. “The wind shall carry them all away; vanity [nothingness] shall take them: but he that putteth his trust in Me [the Lord says] shall possess the land, and shall inherit MY Holy Mountain [nation, Heaven]” (Isa. 57:13). Verse 14 tells us we are to cast away everything that is a stumbling block and prepare ourselves to become saved, to be the people of the Lord.5Eternity is forever, and that is too long to be in the Lake of Fire. To escape the Lake of Fire, we must dwell with the Most High in the high and holy place.6 He revives “the spirit of the humble, and [revives] the heart of the contrite ones” (Isa. 57:15). Being humble and contrite is giving everything up for the Lord. The Lord says in Isaiah 57:16 that He won’t contend with a person forever. He will not be angry forever if we trust in Him and abide in Him in Heavenly places, where we will have peace. Verses 20-21 states, “But the wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt. There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked.” If we’re troubled, if we have no peace, it is only because we have refused to give it all up to go to Heaven. If we don’t believe we’re going to Heaven, if we don’t know for sure we’re going to be in Heaven, then we will have no peace at all. It’s certain that if we haven’t gotten rid of our lusts, if we don’t have victory over them, we will have no lasting peace. I know that it sounds too simple to be true, but to have peace in your soul, you must totally endure temptation. Again, this is accomplished by sitting with Jesus constantly in Heavenly places, and this is accomplished by completely surrendering your old life.7If you want to have peace once and for all, you’ll surrender everything to Jesus for victory over temptation and sin. You will be a Christian champion in a non-Christian world. James 1:12 says, “Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love Him.” God cares. He cares so much that He wants you to continuously sit with Him. No one in our lives has ever cared that much for our company. To think that He cares so much that He died, resurrected, and ascended into Heaven to prepare a place for us8 to, by the Spirit, be with Him while we are on earth and afterward, so our spirit, soul, and glorified body can be with Him and our loved ones forever is incredible! Why don’t you decide to live for Him? There is no profit in living for anyone or anything else. Get with Him now by saying this prayer, and you will be a Christian champion in a non-Christian world: Prayer My Lord and my God, have mercy upon my soul, a sinner. 1 I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of the Living God. 2 I believe that He died on the cross and shed His precious blood for the forgiveness of all my sins. 3 I believe that God raised Jesus from the dead by the power of the Holy Spirit 4 and that He sits on the right hand of God at this moment, hearing my confession of sin and this prayer. 5 I open up the door of my heart and I invite You into my heart, Lord Jesus. 6 Wash all of my filthy sins away in the precious blood that You shed in my place on the cross at Calvary. 7 You will not turn me away, Lord Jesus, You will forgive my sins and save my soul. I know because Your Word, the Bible says so. 8 Your Word says that You will turn no one away, and that includes me. 9 Therefore, I know that You have heard me, and I know that You have answered me, and I know that I am saved. 10 And I thank You, Lord Jesus, for saving my soul, and I will show my thankfulness by doing as You command and sin no more. 11 You've just completed the first step in a series of five steps which are necessary to receive salvation. Your second step is to deny yourself and take up the cross daily for the purpose of mortifying yourself, that is, for putting to death your own will, your soulful self, and the world with all of its lusts. All these must be baptized into the death of Christ. Step three is your resurrection from the satanic life of Adam unto the sinless life of Christ. Step four is your ascension into a position of authority to reign for God on earth, and the fifth step is to reign for God on earth to the end for the purpose of bringing about the kingdom of Heaven on earth.
