Tony Alamo with Tony Alamo World Wide Ministries A Living Sacrifice: Tony Alamo on Consecration, Biblical Obedience, and the Cost of Following God Ep188 How To Have Gods Life Living In You Part 86 Tony Alamo Opens Part 86 of How to Have God’s Life Living in You In this archival episode, host Tony Alamo introduces Part 86 of How to Have God’s Life Living in You, identified as Program 188. He tells listeners they can request a free copy of the program on CD or audio tape, along with Bibles and ministry literature. Alamo frames the broadcast as a message about receiving God’s life within oneself and argues that Christians must do more than verbally believe; they must surrender themselves completely to God. Romans 12 and the Living Sacrifice The central scripture for the episode is Romans 12:1, where Paul urges believers to present their bodies as a living sacrifice. Alamo strongly rejects the idea that Jesus’ sacrifice means believers have no further responsibility. He argues that Jesus is the first and perfect sacrifice, but that Christians must also deny themselves, take up their cross, and allow Christ to continue His work through them. For Alamo, true Christianity requires consecration, self-denial, obedience, and a willingness to let God live and work through the believer. Denying the Old Life and Following Christ Alamo teaches that a person must leave the old life behind, be spiritually reborn, and focus fully on God’s word. He describes baptism as a burial of the old self and says believers must rise as new creatures in Christ. He repeatedly emphasizes that distractions, worldly priorities, and self-directed living prevent people from receiving God’s life fully. The message presents Christian life as a continuing sacrifice, not merely a one-time confession of faith. Polygamy, Marriage, and Alamo’s Biblical Argument A major and controversial portion of the sermon focuses on Alamo’s defense of polygamy as something he says is not condemned in the Bible when practiced within marriage and responsibility. He cites biblical figures such as Moses, Gideon, David, Solomon, Abraham, Jacob, Rachel, Leah, and the handmaidens as examples connected to plural marriage or multiple wives. Alamo says he does not preach that everyone should be polygamous, but argues that forbidding marriage is a “doctrine of devils” based on 1 Timothy 4, and that people should follow God’s word rather than modern cultural or governmental condemnation. Condemnation of the World, Government, and Religious Systems Throughout the broadcast, Alamo strongly criticizes government, media, Catholic leadership, and what he sees as false preachers who distort Scripture. He claims that government and media forces persecute those who preach the Bible as he understands it, and he repeatedly frames modern society as anti-Christ, anti-God, and hostile to biblical truth. He also speaks harshly against homosexuality, abortion, euthanasia, and what he sees as moral decline, presenting these topics as evidence that the world has reversed good and evil. Letters from Listeners Around the World The episode includes listener letters and testimonials from several places, including the United Kingdom, Tennessee, Uganda, Zimbabwe, Ghana, Kenya, and South Africa. Writers thank Alamo for his broadcasts, request literature, Bibles, tapes, or evangelism materials, and describe his messages as powerful, strengthening, and helpful to their faith. Alamo also reads a letter from his brother Rick in Tennessee, who expresses concern that Alamo’s forceful preaching could put him in danger. Isaiah 5 and Calling Evil Good Alamo uses Isaiah 5:20, “woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil,” to argue that the world has inverted biblical morality. He says modern society portrays God’s word as evil while approving what he believes Scripture condemns. This becomes one of the episode’s organizing themes: Alamo presents himself as defending biblical truth against a world that, in his view, rejects or reverses it. Consecration as Love-Motivated Sacrifice Near the end of the teaching, Alamo returns to the theme of consecration. He says that if love is the motive, sacrificing one’s life to God becomes sweet rather than burdensome. He teaches that believers must give themselves willingly and completely to God’s work, allowing Christ to live through them. He also briefly connects this to marriage, saying a relationship cannot rest only on ownership or authority, but must include love. Invitation to Salvation and Closing Appeal The episode closes with Alamo leading listeners in a salvation prayer. He asks them to confess sin, believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, believe in His death and resurrection, invite Jesus into their hearts, and trust that everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved. The program ends with instructions for requesting materials from Tony Alamo Christian Ministries and a preview that the next program will continue with Part 87.

Tony Alamo with Tony Alamo World Wide Ministries Warnings, Witnesses, and Consecration: Tony Alamo on False Teachers, Evangelism, and God’s Life Within Ep190 How To Have Gods Life Living In You Part 88 Tony Alamo Opens Part 88 of How to Have God’s Life Living in You In this archival episode, host Tony Alamo introduces Part 88 of How to Have God’s Life Living in You, identified as Program 190. He tells listeners that copies of the program are available for free on tape or CD and opens with a prayer asking God to anoint the broadcast, open listeners’ spiritual ears, save souls, and strengthen the church. Alamo also warns that new believers should not rush into teaching ministry before being trained, saying they need to learn under elders, tutors, and spiritual governors before attempting to instruct others. Listener Letter from Colombia and the Call to Distribute Literature Alamo reads a letter from Buenaventura, Colombia, where a group of 42 adults and 15 children had received and distributed ministry literature. The writer says many people responded positively and that several needed Bibles, T-shirts, sweatshirts, and more literature for distribution. Alamo uses the letter to encourage listeners around the world to become distributors of his ministry materials. He says people may not feel called to preach, but they are still called to evangelize, and he presents literature distribution as one way for ordinary believers to participate in soul-winning. Warning Against Sin After Salvation Alamo then turns to one of his recurring themes: the danger of willful sin after salvation. He says that if people knowingly and willingly commit sin, they risk hell and the lake of fire, but if they sin ignorantly and repent, Jesus can serve as their advocate with the Father. He refers to Romans 8 and says there is no condemnation for those who walk after the Spirit rather than after the flesh. In his view, the Christian life requires continued obedience, repentance, and walking in the Spirit. Matthew 24 and False Prophets A major scriptural focus is Matthew 24, where Jesus warns about deception, false prophets, wars, rumors of wars, famine, pestilence, earthquakes, persecution, and the end of the age. Alamo has the passage read and emphasizes Jesus’ command to “take heed” that no one deceive believers. He strongly rejects teachings such as “once saved, always saved” unless a person continues walking in the Spirit to the end. Alamo presents false prophets as one of the major signs of the end times and repeatedly urges listeners to read Scripture for themselves. Israel, Prophecy, and End-Time Events Alamo discusses Israel, Jerusalem, Palestinians, Russia, Arab nations, and biblical prophecy. He connects modern events to his understanding of the end times and says the return of Jews to Israel in 1948 was one of the final prophetic signs. He also talks about wars and conflicts surrounding Israel as evidence that the world is moving deeper into the last days. Throughout this section, he frames current events through his interpretation of biblical prophecy and urges listeners to recognize the signs. Famine, Disease, Earthquakes, and Global Suffering Continuing through Matthew 24, Alamo discusses famine, pestilence, disease, earthquakes, and suffering in Africa and elsewhere. He mentions sending financial support to ministries helping starving children and says he wants to verify conditions directly through people connected to his ministry. He refers to AIDS, bird flu fears, starvation, and a recent earthquake in Indonesia as examples of global distress. Alamo presents these events as part of the “beginning of sorrows” described by Jesus. Criticism of Media, Government, and Religious Figures As in the previous episodes, Alamo strongly criticizes government, media, Catholic leadership, public officials, and religious broadcasters he believes are misleading people. He argues that media polls, political speech controls, and religious compromise reflect an anti-Christ system. He also criticizes certain public religious figures for supporting leaders or views he considers spiritually false. The summary should keep these claims clearly attributed to Alamo, because they are part of his sermon rhetoric and interpretation. Letter from Nigeria and Reports of Evangelism Alamo reads a long letter from Port Harcourt, Nigeria, describing distribution of ministry newsletters and tracts in schools, hospitals, public transportation areas, and industrial locations. The writer reports that people responded to the literature, asked questions about Alamo’s ministry, and requested Bibles and more materials. Alamo praises the evangelistic work and says he will send financial help and a camera so the ministry activity can be documented. This section reinforces the episode’s repeated emphasis on literature distribution as evangelism. Paul’s Warning in Acts 22 and Alamo’s Own Story Alamo then connects his personal experiences to Acts 22, where Paul describes being warned to leave Jerusalem quickly because people would not receive his testimony. Alamo compares this to a time he says God warned him to leave Las Vegas within minutes because his life was in danger. He presents this story as evidence that believers must listen when God speaks and obey quickly. He also retells his own conversion story, saying God spoke through him during a business meeting in Beverly Hills and commanded him to speak about Jesus. Additional Letters, FEMA Article, and Spiritual Authority Near the end, Alamo reads brief messages from Uruguay, Guatemala, and Montana, including a testimony from a young woman who found one of his pieces of literature in a grocery-store parking lot and felt that it answered her questions. He also introduces an article claiming that FEMA was training pastors to encourage congregations to obey the government during martial law. Alamo uses this to argue that God’s true authorities are ministers of the gospel, not what he views as anti-Christ government systems. Consecration, Salvation Prayer, and Closing Appeal The episode closes by returning to the theme of consecration. Alamo teaches that believers should focus on God because they belong to Him, and that God’s life entering a person gives strength to obey. He then leads listeners in a salvation prayer, asking them to confess sin, believe in Jesus Christ, receive cleansing through His blood, and call upon the Lord for salvation. Sharon gives contact information for requesting Program 190, and Alamo tells listeners to tune in for Part 89, urging them to read the Bible so they can recognize truth and avoid deception.

Tony Alamo with Tony Alamo World Wide Ministries Consecration, Temptation, and Spiritual Watchfulness: Tony Alamo on Keeping God’s Life Within Ep189 How To Have Gods Life Living In You Part 87 Tony Alamo Opens Part 87 of How to Have God’s Life Living in You In this archival episode, host Tony Alamo introduces Part 87 of How to Have God’s Life Living in You, identified as Program 189. He tells listeners they can request the program on CD or audio tape free of charge and opens with a prayer asking God to anoint the service, speak through him, save souls, and edify the church. The episode continues the prior program’s focus on consecration, sacrifice, and allowing God’s life to dwell within the believer. Listener Letters and Global Literature Distribution Alamo begins by reading listener letters from Piscataway, New Jersey, Angola, and Ecuador. The letters thank the ministry for newsletters, The Messiah book, Bibles, and Christian literature. A pastor from Angola describes people being moved by the literature and asks for large quantities of books, Bibles, translation tools, and tape duplication equipment to help expand evangelism. Alamo uses these letters to encourage listeners to become distributors of his ministry literature, saying that handing out the material makes them part of evangelistic work. The Word of God as Seed Alamo teaches that the “seed” Christians are called to sow is not money, but the word of God. He says written literature, tapes, radio broadcasts, and direct distribution can spread that seed and bring people to salvation. He compares distributing one piece of literature to planting one carrot seed, while distributing many pieces can produce a much larger harvest. His message is that every listener, regardless of church background, can participate in soul-winning by circulating Bible-based literature. Binding Evil and Exposing Satan Within Alamo then discusses the idea that the kingdom of heaven is within and connects it to Jesus’ teaching about binding on earth and in heaven. He interprets this as a call for believers to expose sin, confess faults, and bring hidden temptations into the light so they can be spiritually bound or restrained. He says Satan attacks people with temptations of many kinds, and that open confession can help believers resist those influences. Israel, the Pope, and Alamo’s End-Time Warning A major portion of the episode shifts into Alamo’s interpretation of current events involving President George W. Bush, Israel, Palestinians, Henry Kissinger, the Vatican, and the Pope. Alamo claims that political and religious forces are maneuvering to move the Pope’s authority into Jerusalem and present him as a false messianic figure who can bring peace to the Middle East. He connects this to biblical warnings about the “abomination that maketh desolate” and cautions listeners not to accept any earthly religious leader as the Messiah, because he says Jesus will return visibly in the clouds. Consecration Compared to Marriage Returning to the main teaching series, Alamo describes consecration to God through the analogy of marriage. He says a true marriage cannot rest only on ownership, command, or authority, but must be based on love and harmony. In the same way, he argues that consecration to God should not be merely legalistic or fearful, but should arise from the believer being touched by God’s love. When a person truly sees God’s love, Alamo says, they will willingly offer themselves to Him. Proverbs 7 and the Warning Against Adultery Alamo then has Proverbs 7 read as a warning against adultery, temptation, and the “strange woman.” He presents the chapter as a spiritual lesson about guarding God’s commandments, keeping them close to the heart, and avoiding seduction or flattery that leads to destruction. Alamo uses the passage to argue that adultery after salvation is spiritually deadly and that believers must take God’s commandments seriously rather than treating sin casually. Criticism of False Teaching and Moral Compromise Throughout the sermon, Alamo sharply criticizes religious teachers, television ministries, and public figures whom he believes minimize sin or excuse adultery, homosexuality, fornication, drug use, or other conduct he says Scripture condemns. He argues that some modern religious programming presents moral compromise as forgiveness while ignoring the Bible’s warnings about repentance and judgment. He connects this to his broader view that many churches are part of a great falling away rather than a true revival. Faith, Scripture, and Continuing in Obedience Near the end, Alamo returns to the importance of reading and hearing Scripture. He says people cannot truly love God if they do not know His word, because he identifies God’s word with God Himself. He teaches that faith grows by hearing and receiving the word, and that obedience brings blessing. At the same time, he warns that wealth, fame, sexual sin, and pride can cause people who once seemed blessed to fall away. Salvation Prayer and Closing Appeal The episode closes with Alamo leading listeners in a salvation prayer, asking them to confess sin, believe Jesus is the Son of God, believe in His death and resurrection, invite Jesus into their hearts, and ask for cleansing through His blood. He then gives contact information for requesting Program 189 and tells listeners to tune in for Part 88. His closing message is to remain consecrated to the Lord, turn away from the world, and continue in faith until the end.

Ep187, How To Have Gods Life Living In You, Part 85 Six-Paragraph Summary Program 187 Opens With Prayer and a Call to Consecration World Pastor Tony Alamo opens part 85 of How to Have God’s Life Living in You by identifying the program number and reminding listeners that all ministry materials, including Bibles, tapes, programs, and literature, are offered free of charge. He explains that he does not sell the Word of God because God did not charge him for salvation. He then prays for the program, asking that only God’s words come through him and emphasizing consecration, surrender, and the need for Christ to live within believers. Listener Letters Emphasize Literature Distribution and Salvation The first letters read on the program come from Georgia and Venezuela. A pastor from Covington, Georgia, thanks the ministry for literature and Messiah books, saying they have helped people get saved and offering to translate materials into French and Swahili. A listener from Venezuela thanks the ministry for T-shirts and literature, reports that people are responding enthusiastically, and asks for more Bibles and audio messages in Spanish. Tony responds by stressing the importance of distributing soul-winning literature and invites people from any church background to request materials for outreach. A Dramatic Testimony From East Moline A letter from East Moline, Illinois, describes a person’s journey through philosophy, atheism, communism, Satanism, and the Church of Satan before encountering one of Tony Alamo’s pamphlets in a hotel room. The letter names philosophers, political writers, and satanic influences as part of the writer’s claimed descent away from God, then describes the pamphlet as a moment of divine intervention. Tony uses the testimony to warn against anti-Christian books, false teachings, and ideas he believes lead people away from salvation. Montana Outreach and the Importance of Small Towns A report from Montana describes ministry workers distributing newsletters in several small towns and receiving positive responses. One person reportedly prayed the sinner’s prayer after receiving literature, and another was identified as a preacher who had been saved years earlier through the ministry. Tony pauses to explain that small towns should not be minimized, drawing from his own Montana background and mentioning relatives he says became accomplished in engineering and film art. He argues that significant people and important spiritual work can come from small places. The Sermon Focuses on Love, Fear of God, and Hearing the Lord Tony then returns to the main teaching on consecration, saying that love is tied to keeping God’s commandments and that fear of the Lord is a necessary motive for obedience. He describes a personal experience in which, after becoming jealous, he says God spiritually closed his ears so he could not hear Him for years. He credits his late wife, Susie, with praying for his ears to be opened near the end of her life. He uses the story to warn listeners not to defy God, resist correction, or take hearing from the Lord for granted. The Coming Judgment, New World, and Salvation Prayer The final portion centers on 2 Peter chapter 3 and Tony’s teaching that the old world was destroyed by water, the present world will be destroyed by fire, and a new world of righteousness is coming. He repeatedly contrasts the world’s “new world order” with the new world he believes God will create. Tony urges listeners to repent, be born again, read the Bible, and prepare for eternity. He closes by leading a salvation prayer, encouraging continued praise, Bible reading, and consecration, before Sharon gives the ministry’s contact information for obtaining program number 187.

Tony Alamo with Tony Alamo World Wide Ministries God’s Life in You: Tony Alamo on the Holy Spirit, Healing, Literature, and the Power to Do God’s Work Ep186 How To Have Gods Life Living In You Part 84 Tony Alamo Opens Part 84 of How to Have God’s Life Living in You In this archival program, identified as program 186 and part 84 of How to Have God’s Life Living in You, Tony Alamo opens by saying he is recording late at night and asks that the Holy Spirit anoint the message. He rejects popular religious claims such as The Da Vinci Code and disputes arguments about the authorship of Revelation, insisting that the Bible is true from Genesis through Revelation. Alamo says God speaks to him, gives him signs, dreams, visions, and direction, and he frames the broadcast as part of his calling to teach and strengthen believers around the world. Prayer for Anointing and the Role of the “Older Christian” Alamo explains that the outward anointing of the Holy Spirit is needed for the service because, in his view, God must be the one speaking through him. He says the Lord instructed him to be an “older Christian” and teacher for believers who need spiritual feeding, encouragement, and strengthening. He then prays that God’s words will come through him and enter the minds, hearts, souls, and spirits of listeners, both those in the church and those outside it. Letter from Edo State, Nigeria The first letter comes from Edo State, Nigeria, from a distributor named Bestman. He writes that after sharing Alamo’s end-time literature, 17 people received Jesus as Savior and 11 people were healed of sickness. Alamo uses the letter to teach that people who distribute the literature share in the same spiritual reward as the preacher because all true believers are one body in Christ. He says that if one part of the body is blessed, the whole body shares in the blessing, and if one part rebels, the whole person is endangered. Literature Distribution as Soul-Winning Work Alamo repeatedly emphasizes that listeners do not have to be preachers, teachers, prophets, or evangelists to serve God. They can be “helpers” by distributing the ministry’s literature, Bibles, The Messiah books, T-shirts, and other materials. He says the literature is winning souls around the world, and that anyone who passes it out can help bring others to salvation. In this sermon, literature distribution again functions as Alamo’s practical example of “sowing seed” into the world. Healing, False Religion, and Signs Following Believers A large section of the program addresses healing and spiritual signs. Alamo says true believers should see signs such as casting out devils, healing the sick, raising the dead, and receiving answers to prayer. He criticizes false religion and religious leaders he believes lack the Spirit of God, especially those connected with Catholicism, the Vatican, or what he views as spiritually powerless ministries. He specifically addresses Benny Hinn, saying he is praying for him to be saved, while also accusing him of promoting Catholicism and failing to bring lasting healing to people who attend his crusades. The Body of Christ and the Spirit of Brotherhood Alamo teaches that believers are the corporate body of Christ because the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit live in them. He says Jesus was once one human body confined to time and space, but after His resurrection and ascension, Christ continues His work through many Spirit-filled human bodies around the world. Alamo connects this to what he calls the Spirit of brotherhood, saying believers become brothers of Christ when the Holy Spirit lives in them. He argues that without the Spirit of God, people cannot do the works of God or truly understand Scripture. Letter from Angola, Louisiana Prison The next major letter comes from Angola, Louisiana, from an incarcerated man named Eric. He thanks Alamo for sending money to help him obtain legal assistance after problems with prison guards. Eric describes earlier uncertainty about God, the death of his father, a near-death experience after guards allegedly attacked him with gas and medication, and how his encounter with Alamo’s ministry convinced him that God exists. Alamo responds by connecting Eric’s situation with his own experience of imprisonment and persecution, saying that experience helped him recognize distress in others. Letter from Ghana and Witnessing in Montana Another short letter comes from Accra, Ghana, from Emmanuel, a 22-year-old who says he stopped womanizing after reading and praying with Alamo’s newsletters and asks for a Bible so he can go to church. The program also includes a witnessing report from Billings, Montana, where Alamo’s workers distributed literature outside a Benny Hinn crusade. The report says many people leaving the event were disappointed because they had not been healed, but were receptive to Alamo’s literature and messages. Taking Healing and Receiving What God Has Provided In response to the Montana report, Alamo explains his view that healing has already been provided through Christ and must be received by faith. He compares healing to a glass of water sitting in front of a thirsty person, saying it is useless to keep asking for water while refusing to drink what has already been given. He urges listeners to “take” salvation, healing, prosperity, and the other mercies of God by believing the Word and keeping God’s commandments. Love, Consecration, and Living Beyond the Natural Near the end, Alamo returns to the teaching from 2 Corinthians 5:14–15 and Romans 12:1, saying that the love of Christ is like rushing waters that compel believers to consecrate themselves to God. He teaches that natural human strength is not enough; people need the “super” added to the natural through the Holy Spirit. He says believers can then live as living sacrifices, serve God, and do all things through Christ living in them. Salvation Prayer and Program Information Alamo closes by leading listeners in a salvation prayer, asking Jesus to forgive sins, wash them away in His blood, enter the heart, and save the soul. He encourages new believers to keep reading the Word so their minds can be renewed and filled with the mind of Christ. Sharon then gives instructions for requesting program 186, either as an audio tape or CD, and Alamo announces that the next broadcast will continue with part 85 of How to Have God’s Life Living in You. He ends by urging listeners to stay consecrated, belong fully to God, and shun the world.
