They Will Fight Against You (Jeremiah 1: 17 - 19)
Written 2/11/2026
“Thou therefore gird up thy loins, and arise, and speak unto them all that I command thee: be not dismayed at their faces, lest I confound thee before them. For, behold, I have made thee this day a defenced city, and an iron pillar, and brasen walls against the whole land, against the kings of Judah, against the princes thereof, against the priests thereof, and against the people of the land. And they shall fight against thee; but they shall not prevail against thee; for I am with thee, saith the Lord, to deliver thee.” Jeremiah 1: 17 – 19 (King James Version)
I love the Word of God. I love how God always reminds me of who I am to Him. One of the things that God has shared with me from the very beginning of my walk with Him was that I was called to be a Jeremiah. Over the years, I have forgotten that. It was a combination of harsh treatment, rejection, ridicule, complete misunderstanding, and bad leadership that caused me to push this part of my call to the side. I have been reborn and I know that I'm called to share the Lord's message and His truth to His people. I forgot that God told me that they were not going to listen. It's been a hard walk through some hard places.
I love God's people. At the same time, God's people are really a hot mess. I want things to be different for them, but I cannot make people change. It’s not my job to make people change. It’s my job to deliver His message to His people. It’s God’s responsibility to do whatever it is that He wants to do with His words. There are times when the things that God brings to my attention to share are hard truths. They are tough truths, but they are truths that are needed to produce His life inside of you. They produce His life inside of me. They produce His encouragement inside of me. I don't look at them as truths that restrict my growth. I look at them as truths that help me grow.
In this current state of the Body of Christ (2026) it is clear that we do not have brothers and sisters, nor do we have fathers and mothers. We do not even have aunts and uncles. There is very little Godly leadership in the House of God. This fosters and produces an environment that is filled with deceptive teachings, deceptive practices, and this is bringing in its place the outright abuse of God’s sheep. God doesn't want His sheep abused. He wants them to be loved. He wants them to be nurtured, and He wants the shepherds to bring them up in the way that God himself would bring them up. But that is not happening, that is not occurring because power, pride, and selfish ambition rule the day. These things cause the Body of Christ to forget what they were called to do. They are called to serve the Lord.
Power, pride and selfish ambition are a cause of some apostles, evangelists, pastors, prophets, and teachers being neglectful over God's precious sheep. This should never be. There should never be a neglected sheep in God's house. But there are! In this time period where God is exposing cults, cult-like behavior, and the general abuse of His sheep there is an extreme amount of neglect taking place.
I love the truth of how God delivered Kathryn and me from the cult of the Lighthouse Inc., Church. I love that it happened in a way where it was smooth and it was effortless on our part. God brought us out of that cult darkness and into a place of safety in Him. After experiencing the years of misuse that occurred to me, my wife, our children, and other members of the Body of the Lighthouse Inc., Church; it was time for God to bring change into our lives. God facilitated an opening and caused us to be able to transition away from this cult in which we were connected.
It's been a hard transition to this place of truth. It's been a difficult journey, but it has been a journey that has been filled with more peace, more love, and more grace than we ever thought possible. As we look back on those who refuse to understand, on those who judge us without knowing the whole story, it has brought a lot of tears to our lives. The tears are gratefulness to God, without him fully opening our eyes, we would still be in the trap of the cult. Without God having fully opening our eyes, we would carry the same position, the same belief that we did…, “That nothing was wrong and everything Evangelist/Pastor Barbara did was Godly.” We no longer hold this position. Now that our eyes have been opened, we see the truth of who she is. We know beyond a shadow of a doubt that this woman is listening to another voice, and she is following another spirit. A spirit that is NOT from the true God.
I was talking with someone who is still very confused by what has happened. They cannot yet see that this confusion in their life is a way of not choosing between right and wrong. I understand that confusion and I'm not judging anyone who has been through this particular situation. I didn’t have confusion about right or wrong that was never an issue. The decision to leave the cult of the Lighthouse Inc., Church was easy. However, it has taken me a long time to get to a place where I feel grounded enough to put the pieces of my life into perspective. It’s this perspective that comes from God. I'm not going to speak on behalf of Kathryn on this matter because everything that occurred for me was like a shredder ripping away thousands of lies. Every lie was ripped away. My identity was ripped away. My “position” in God, in Christ, in the Body of Christ was ripped a way.
As we were going through the disconnection process, it became clear to me that Evangelist/Pastor Barbara was determined to go the way of destruction. With her bent on doing things her way there was no possibility of a change of heart on her part. There would be no turning back to the truth. Without her returning to the truth there would be no ability on her part of ever correctly resolving her errors in a peaceable way. As things continued to degrade there was no effort on the part of Evangelist/Pastor Barbara to try to reconcile with myself or my wife. On the contrary, efforts to destroy any bridge or connection were immediately set on fire by Evangelist/Pastor Barbara. When Evangelist/Pastor Barbara Lynch went down this path any possible bridge that could have been erected between us was completely obliterated. There was no going back. There was no chance at reconciliation. There was no chance at having a relationship ever again.
With all of her negative lies and misdirection’s of the truth her heart was exposed for what it was. The journey of getting understanding of who she had become was further reinforced by her continued abusive behavior towards anyone who stood between her and her God. It became very clear and it was scary to see the level of dedication and effort that took place on the part of Evangelist/Pastor Barbara that was used to cover up her sin. This was a person that I honored and served with love. I dedicated and gave my life on behalf of the Lord to helping her ministry. It's funny how things work out and how things turn out.
As I read the book of Jeremiah and became reacquainted with the things that I learned as a young man. It reminded of the things that I believed God was going to use me to do. Never did I ever think that it would be used to expose the darkness in her. God used this situation as an opportunity for me to step back into the fullness of the calling that God had placed upon my life. The calling of Jeremiah. I find comfort in these words in verses 17 through 19 of Chapter One of the book of Jeremiah. This secures in me the truth that God has really had my back. He's had my wife's back. He's had our families back in this whole situation.
As we made our exodus from the cult of Lighthouse Inc., Church provision was made for us. I know that we're in a healing phase of our lives. It's been good. It's been really good to have the truth broken down by God to us. God is leading us to information, leading us to sources, leading us to truth that we can stand forever upon the Word of God. We will always stand on the Word of God. I'm indebted to God. I'm forever grateful to my Father in Heaven because had it not been for Him and His direction and Him ordering my footsteps, I probably would not be saved today. This is real talk.
Everything happens for a reason. Everything is ordained of God the way that it needs to be. I have no regrets about where Kathryn and I are at today. I know that we are on the path that God wants us to be on. This is amazing to me in so many different ways. Kathryn and I are growing closer together. We're growing closer to the Lord and He is the light that is our path. I was sharing an amazing truth with someone else who came out of this situation. Not one of us had a desire to leave God. Not one of us had a desire to abandon our faith, abandon the principles that we learned and we grew up in. This is amazing.
Other people who went through this same similar situation took it as an opportunity to go whole hog into sin. That baffles my mind. That baffles my mind because I want to know how could you do that? How could you go full force into sin? You can blame everybody in the world. You can blame yourself, you can blame Evangelist/Pastor Barbara, but it doesn't take away from the fact that you yourself should have your own relationship with the Lord. What did you do with that relationship with the Lord? That should have been enough to carry you through anything that comes your way. Your love for God should have inspired you to move forward in service to the Lord.
“Our Mission is "To serve the “Word of God” to His People who are hungry and thirsty for His righteousness by answering His call to “Feed His lambs; Tend His sheep; & Feed His sheep according to John 21: 15 - 17.””
When I tell you we are in a time where there is a famine for the Word of God, “Child, there is a famine for the true Word of God!” Many people have placed words out there that are not true words from God. They are not scriptural. They are twists and distortions of the scriptures. They are human intellectualism, they are human reasoning. They are things that are not going to build the foundation of Jesus Christ in your life. They are not going to build the foundational work of God inside of you because it's somebody's dream, somebody's thoughts. They are not God’s thoughts. They are man’s thoughts. Man's thoughts are not going to get you anywhere. Man's thoughts are going to leave you high, dry, thirsty and empty.
“Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.” Matthew 7:24-27 (King James Version)
We cannot as children of God move forward without the life sustaining Word of God. When I consider what Hebrews 4:12 says about the Word of God, I get so happy inside.
“For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” Hebrews 4: 12 (King James Version)
Evangelist/Pastor Barbara Lynch abandoned the Word of God. I believe she abandoned the Word of God because it was discerning her true nature, her true lustful spirit and her true desire to do things that were not Godly. She had to let go of the Word of God. She couldn't hold onto it; she couldn't teach it because she knew in her heart of hearts that she was sinning. I think this is really sad. But it also shows what is happening to other leaders in the Body of Christ when they cannot move forward in truth and in the righteousness of God. Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. God is not complex. God is plain and simple.
Let’s reread Jeremiah 1: 17 – 19 (Amplified Bible)
“But you [Jeremiah], gird up your loins [in preparation]! Get up and tell them all which I command you. Do not be distraught and break down at the sight of their [hostile] faces, or I will bewilder you before them and allow you to be overcome. 18 Now behold, I have made you today like a fortified city and like an iron pillar and like bronze walls against the whole land—against the [successive] kings of Judah, against its leaders, against its priests, and against the people of the land [giving you divine strength which no hostile power can overcome]. 19 They will fight against you, but they will not [ultimately] prevail over you, for I am with you [always] to protect you and deliver you,” says the Lord.”” Jeremiah 1: 17 – 19 (Amplified)
Powerful words from a powerful God in this time. It's time that we understand what we're called to do. When I look at the things that have been going on with Mike Winger, Ray Curry, Julie Royce and others. They picked up an assignment from the Lord to be Jeremiah to this nation. If God has placed an exposure ministry in your hands, you have to stand as Jeremiah, you have to stand no matter what the opposition is. You have to stand knowing that they are going to fight against you, but God is with you and He will give you the victory.
What people say negatively about you because God is using you is that sharp sword that is bringing the truth to bring discernment to the thoughts and intents of the heart of the people. The thing that we need to have most in this hour is discernment. We need truth in our innermost parts and that truth comes by the Word of God. You must understand that because of what God has called you to do, these people will fight against you.
Without God having fully opening our eyes, we would carry the same position, the same belief that we did…, “That nothing was wrong and everything Evangelist/Pastor Barbara did was Godly.” We no longer hold this position. Now that our eyes have been opened, we see the truth of who she is. We know beyond a shadow of a doubt that this woman is listening to another voice, and she is following another spirit. A spirit that is NOT from the true God.
Selah,
Christopher & Kathryn
