Where did the AMEGA button go?
May 15, 2010
by Dr. Bruggeman
I am very, very disappointed with the AMEGA Company. Not the wand itself. I have had success with it. But the company is so very unresponsive in so many ways. I simply do not have the time to help those of you who might want to buy the product, because ultimately we both run into the same problem—which is why you email or call me for help—the inability to get an order placed. The order process does not work. They don’t reply to my emails. Can’t get through to them on the phone. I’ve had it. This has been going on for several months. My patience with them is at an end. I am sorry to have raised your hopes and inconvenienced you. In retrospect, I should have waited to make sure the company not only had a good product, but was itself capable of handling the business end of things before I began promoting it. Lesson learned by this humbled one.

Lecture #21 of 54, CD #403, Date of Lecture: March 10, 2002
Abstract: David has a dilemma. Having misled Achish about his loyalty, he is expected to help attack Israel. However, the other Philistine princes are concerned David will become an adversary (satan) to them. Achish releases David and upon their return to Ziklag, David and his men find the Amalekites have burned the city and taken the women and children captive. David and 400 of his 600 catch the marauders and slay all but 400 of them, reclaiming everything and everyone that had been taken, plus additional spoil. When the 400 victors selfishly refuse to share the spoil with the 200 who stayed behind, David corrects them, foreshadowing the New Testament teaching that we do not gain salvation and become overcomers by works. The work is of God.

Lecture #22 of 54, CD #404, Date of Lecture: March 10, 2002
Abstract: James recaps the story of the division of spoils gained from David and his men’s defeat of the Amalekites (Edomites) and shows the deeper meanings in the narrative. The Egyptian (bondage) found in the field (the world) had been left to die, but David (a type of Christ) gave him bread (life). The Amalekites had stolen David’s two wives, a prophecy of how modern-day Edom has stolen the two brides of Christ, Israel and Judah. Astounding insights come fast and furious as James follows the thread of witchcraft in Judeo-Christianity and Mystery Babylon and explains the various prophecies involved.

Abstract: Three of Saul’s sons fall in battle against the Philistines and Saul commits suicide after his armor-bearer (Doeg?) refuses to slay him. Saul’s final act was the culmination of a life filled with pride and self-will. Excessive self-love was one of the causes of Saul’s failures and of his suicide. The armor-bearer in type represents those in the Saul church (and government) who assist and enable wrongdoing.

Abstract: An Amalekite makes a report (possibly false) to David that he performed a "mercy killing" on Saul. David has the man executed for slaying God’s anointed king. Meanwhile, the Israelites abandon their cities to the Philistines and the Philistines desecrate Saul and his sons’ corpses. Valiant men from Jabeshgilead recover the bodies, burn them, and bury the bones. James discusses the practice of cremation and recaps the reign of Saul and how it applies to America today. A millennium after Saul’s reign, God raised up another Benjamite "Saul," whose name was changed to Paul after his conversion. Paul overcame the flesh by the power of the Spirit.

Abstract: James spends a few minutes relating his history and the history of Stone Kingdom Ministries before gracefully segueing into the lesson. Drawing from the experiences of the New Testament Saul who became Paul, James cites examples of how Paul overcame his Saul nature and demonstrated the character of David after his conversion and how we might emulate those qualities. Returning to the OT, we learn how David continues to exhibit an overcomer character by eulogizing Saul in a respectful, positive manner.

Abstract: After Saul’s death, David does not presume to immediately take charge as king of Israel but consults with God exactly how to proceed. After moving to Hebron, David receives the second of his three royal anointings as king of the tribe of Judah. General Abner installs Saul’s son Ishbosheth as king over the other tribes and recaptures much of the land the Philistines had seized. Later, David’s men defeat Abner’s men. How will David’s reversal of fortunes affect his character? And how about us? How will we react when faced with success?

Abstract: Warfare continues between Israel (led by Ishbosheth and Abner) and Judah (led by David). James goes far a-field in the first part of this lesson to talk about science fiction, miracles, magic, technology, zero point energy, and other esoteric subjects. In the Biblical narrative, David has six (imperfection, incompletion) children. During the examination of who David’s wives were, James discusses the seed line theory, giants and space aliens. The Star Wars movies and the Skywalker family even get a mention.

Abstract: General Abner, who put Ishbosheth in place as king of Israel, furthers his personal political agenda by defecting to king David of Judah. Abner offers to help David consolidate the kingdom, but Joab sees Abner’s deceit and kills him. David distances himself from the murder and pronounces a curse on the house of Joab’s father. James compares David’s praise of Abner to Thomas Jefferson’s comments about George Washington. David demonstrates a character weakness in his unwillingness to discipline Joab. As a type of overcomer, David’s flaws show us that when we are tested, we should avoid failing in those ways.

Abstract: Before turning to the Bible, James comments on several letters from tape ministry listeners. One criticizes James for describing himself as a "Bible teacher," while others are complimentary. In 2 Samuel 4, two army captains assassinate and decapitate Isbosheth. James explains the seemingly incongruous first Scriptural mention of Jonathan’s son Mephibosheth. The assassins take Isbosheth’s head to David, who executes them. We see that David waits on God instead of "patriotically" taking matters into his own hands, demonstrating how we should avoid attempting to take matters into our own hands regarding the religious and political systems under which we live.

Abstract: James relates the story of the FBI manhunt for accused serial bomber Eric Robert Rudolph, demonstrating that those who would employ violence and rebellion to "do God’s Will" are similar to Ishbosheth’s assassins and do not exhibit the traits of overcomers. God put us into this present captivity and He will free us on His schedule. We are to submit, not to resist. In the fifth chapter of 2 Samuel, Israel’s fear of the Philistines following the death of Ishbosheth causes them to turn to David for leadership and protection and he is anointed king of all Israel. David conquers the Jebusites and seizes the city that came to be known as Jerusalem by sneaking in through the gutters.
