Heresies of Jim Wilhelmsen of EchoesofEnoch.org
What Jim Wilhelmsen of echoesofenoch.org, teaches on:
1. The Authority of the Bible
Jim Wilhelmsen teaches that Satan had sex with Eve, in the garden, conceiving Cain.
“This would suggest that something of a sexual nature did occur in the Garden of Eden that resulted in the fall. If the final result may have been fraternal twins, one the seed of the serpent, one the seed of the woman but one not in harmony to God’s timing. This may be the only way to explain the very physical reality of two seeds. If, in fact this was what happened in the Garden of Eden, it is easy to figure the two seeds apart from each other. Cain was the first murderer, Abel was described as the first prophet.”
“That both Cain (White) and Abel (black) could represent races that were never in the intention of God’s structure, one being a direct seed of the serpent, and the other an “out of time seed of the woman.” www.echoesofenoch.com/two_seeds.htm
But the Bible teaches that Adam was the father of Cain:
“And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD.” Gen 4:1
Jim Wilhelmsen teaches that many survived the flood by hiding inside a hollow earth.
“Cain and his family were sentenced just before the flood into the inner earth.” “After the act of murder, Cain was removed into a subterranean existence with six generations mentioned as being in exile in the
But the Bible teaches that all flesh was destroyed by the Flood:
“And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein [is] the breath of life, from under heaven; [and] every thing that [is] in the earth shall die. But with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons’ wives with thee. And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every [sort] shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep [them] alive with thee; they shall be male and female.” Gen 6:17-19
“Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water.” 1 Pet 3:20
Jim denies the authority of the Bible and teaches things which blatantly contradict the Bible. The rest of his theological teachings are based upon this foundation, or relate to it.
2. Salvation by Grace
Jim teaches that Satan’s literal seed through Cain reemerged from a hollow earth after the flood, and intermixed with those on the surface of the earth who descended from Noah.
“Cain and his family were sentenced just before the flood into the inner earth. Through a tunnel system mentioned in Job 41 they could of reappeared on the surface after the flood and intermixed.” “This seed intermixed before the flood and also after the flood and was dealt with harshly.”
Jim teaches that Satan’s seed, while appearing human, have no spirits capable of being redeemed, and therefore could never come to salvation in Jesus Christ.
“They will never hear the voice of God or the prompting of His Spirit. They are of this world and hear only their Father who is the god of this world.” “By this statement, we are not, being told to preach to animals but to every created being. This is a clue that not all humans are God’s. There are some that are of another linage, therefore not a human created by God but a created being imitated by Satan. ” …”While this great hope and promise is provided for God’s seed there is another seed that is at enmity against God and has no hope. The Bible is clear that there are some that do not have a spirit, therefore it is impossible for them to ever hear or understand the things of God.” …
Jim teaches Satan’s seed through Cain contaminated all the nations and races, but that only the Jews were of God’s seed and race, truly human, having a spirit, and able to receive salvation. Jim teaches that the dispersal of the ten tribes of
“At the same time the scattering of HIS CHOSEN’S seed in the form of “Jacobs” seed” (the ten northern tribes) are dispersed into all world mixing with all three races and insures race and bloodline are no longer the issue of seeds and salvation. The appearance of a redeemer now being made ready for whosoever may come.”
“The importance of God’s plan to allow the dispersion of the Northern ten tribes of
Putting this all together, it means Jim teaches that salvation comes by bloodline. Jim teaches that the Gentiles who came to Christ in the New Testament were actually Jews from the dispersed 10 tribes of
But the Bible teaches that salvation is not dependent upon blood or bloodlines:
“But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, [even] to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.” Jn 1:12-13
If one takes the Bible as the Word of God, then when the Bible says “Jew” it means “Jew”, and when the Bible says “Gentile” it means “Gentile”. In teaching that the Gentiles who came to Christ were really secretly Jews, Jim teaches again denies the authority of the Bible. The Bible teaches:
“That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.” Gal 3:14
“For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether [we be] Jews or Gentiles, whether [we be] bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.” 1 Cor 12:13
Jim denies that Salvation is by Grace, but rather is by bloodline.
Beyond this, Jim says that it is God who started him down this road showing him these things “God started showing me in His Word about two separate seeds or genetic lines, one was His and one was Satan’s….This also tied into the two dimensions” http://www.echoesofenoch.com/human_nature.htm and is included in Jim’s statement of faith on his website, ““We believe in two literal seeds mentioned in Genesis 3” http://www.echoesofenoch.org/Whowearepg.htm
3. The Trinity and the Deity of Christ
Jim teaches that before the fall of mankind, that God’s three persons were one, and that it was at the time of the fall of mankind God divided up into the three person of the Trinity. Jim also teaches that someday God’s three persons will merge to again be one. Jim claims God told him his, as an answer to what the meaning was of a dream he had.
“Heaven and Earth, as a parallel universe was spoken to me in a dream. In the dream there were two people, twins, sitting at a table. A waiter came up to them and a voice said why must three serve two when only one should be serving only one. As the voice spoke the waiter turned into three waiters and then back to one. I had no clue what that meant and prayed for understanding….I began to study the Bible and received scriptures explaining the parallel dimension aspect of a true Biblical cosmology. God was telling me what the word clearly explains. In the beginning God walked with man. In the fall of mankind, God in three persons has divided up to serve and minister to the two dimensions. At then end of time, one dimension will end and one will to remain forever, God’s three dimensional persons will merge again as one, who will serve only one dimension.” http://www.echoesofenoch.com/human_nature.htm
The fall of mankind was after the world had been created. The Bible teaches that the world was created by and through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, and the Spirit of God were all distinctly there in the creation process:
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness [was] upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. Gen 1:1-2
“For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether [they be] thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all [things] he might have the preeminence.”
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.” Jn 1:1-3
But to us [there is but] one God, the Father, of whom [are] all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom [are] all things, and we by him. 1 Cor 8:6
The Bible teaches that God is eternal:
The eternal God [is thy] refuge, and underneath [are] the everlasting arms: and he shall thrust out the enemy from before thee; and shall say, Destroy [them]. Deut 33:27
The Bible teaches that Jesus Christ existed distinct eternally:
“*But as for you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, Too little to be among the clans of
“Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.” Heb 13:8
And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. Jn 17:5
Jim teaches that God divided into 3 persons at the time of the fall of mankind. Jim’s teaching contradicts the Biblical doctrine of the Trinity, and that Jesus Christ (and God the Father and the Holy Spirit) existed distinctly eternally, and created the world. Jim teaches a Jesus Christ different than who the Bible defines Jesus Christ to be, as well as a different God the Father and God the Holy Spirit. Jim denies the Biblical teaching of the Trinity and deity of Christ.
4. Jesus Christ is both fully man and fully God, and came in the flesh.
Jim teaches that neither Adam nor Eve had blood in their bodies before the fall into sin. Jim also teaches that Jesus Christ did not have blood in His resurrected body, and that Jesus has no blood in His body now.
“There eyes did become open, and in this lesser state they became as “naked” before God, this change was obvious in their hindered state. With only one tenth of there brain capacity at hand and an addition of a blood system they were made fragile and mortal…”
“Adam’s statement in regards to the newly formed Eve, “And Adam said, “This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh.” Gen2:23. I believe the absence of the mention of blood is very important. This was before the temptation and they had no blood as they were created like their Father. After the resurrection, Jesus describes himself as not a spirit but as a living being flesh and bone minus blood. He is in the eternal state without blood.” www.echoesofenoch.com/essential_theology_part_1.htm
Jim says he bases this teaching on Gen 2:23 and Luke 24:39, in which Adam, Eve, and Jesus are all mentioned to have “flesh and bone”, but blood is not mentioned.
However, the Bible teaches that the blood is part of what the Bible defines as “flesh”:
But flesh with the life thereof, [which is] the blood thereof, shall ye not eat. Gen 9:4
for [it is] the life of all flesh, its blood is for its life; and I say to the sons of Israel, Blood of any flesh ye do not eat, for the life of all flesh is its blood; any one eating it is cut off. Lev 17:14
Jim teaches the Christ we worship today has the flesh of his resurrected body, but that this flesh is missing Jesus’ blood.
The flesh of a human body contains blood. In the Bible after the resurrection Jesus said:
“Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.” Luke 24:39
The Bible teaches that Jesus Christ had blood in his resurrected body, as He had flesh and the blood is considered to be part of the flesh, as the Bible defines it. Jim specifically teaches Jesus did not have blood in His resurrected body. Also, it should be noted that many bones also contain blood.
Jim also teaches that the blood Jesus had in his body during His life on earth came from the parallel dimension of Heaven, and was untainted from this fallen dimension.
“It is in this sense Heaven and Earth are parallel dimensions; one carried out to perfection, one fallen into a distortion yet both existing at the same time.”
“If a wrong decision caused a parallel dimension of linear existence with an addition of blood to a mortal frail existence, then another blood, mortal yet untainted from this fallen dimension needed to come into existence to undo the whole process.” www.echoesofenoch.com/two_seeds.htm
“There is uniqueness in the person of Christ. Only he as God, became a man, like us in every way except his blood unnatural to this dimension. This gave him the power to overcome this world system and altered universe.” www.echoesofenoch.com/essential_theology_part_1.htm
This means that Jesus’ blood that He was born with did not develop in part from his mother like the rest of mankind, because then it would have been tainted by this “fallen dimension”. Apparently Jesus’ flesh, except for the blood part of the flesh, developed in part from his mother, like the rest of mankind, but the blood of Jesus (part of His flesh) was from the parallel dimension of heaven, and “unnatural to this dimension”.
The Bible teaches that Jesus partook as much of normal human flesh and blood as any man:
“Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil” Heb 2:14
There really is no in-between gray area here. Either Jesus Christ came in the flesh as fully man, fully the son of Mary, and the Son of God, or Jesus Christ did not. To in any way diminish that Jesus Christ was fully man, and came in the flesh, fully partaking of flesh and blood like any man born to a woman, is denying the Biblical truth of these points of essential doctrine.
Jim teaches that Jesus Christ was not fully man, partaking as any man in both His flesh and blood. Because Jim denies the blood of Jesus Christ in this way, and the blood is part of the flesh, Jim also denies that Jesus Christ fully came in the flesh as the Bible teaches. In Jim teaching that Jesus does not have blood in His resurrected body, “flesh and bone minus blood” Jim also denies that Jesus is fully coming back in the flesh.
“And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that [spirit] of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.” 1 Jn 4:3
“For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.” 2 Jn 1:7
According to the Bible, the spirit behind these teachings is an antichrist spirit. Jim Wilhelmsen in his teachings denies the Christian doctrines of the Authority of the Word of God, Salvation by Grace, the Trinity and Deity of Christ, that Jesus was fully man and fully God, and that Jesus Christ came in the flesh.
There are some doctrines you don’t mess with, which are essential to the Christian faith. You can read up on these here:
http://carm.org/essential-doctrines-of-christianity
http://www.apologeticsindex.org/159-chart-of-essential-doctrines-of-christianity
http://defendchrist.org/essentials.html
If you teach things that are contrary to these essential doctrines, violating them, contradicting them, then you are a false teacher. Teachings that violate these essential Christian doctrines are heresies, and those who teach them are heretics.
“But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.” 2 Pet 2:1
If the reason that a person has become a false teacher is because of a spirit who went untested (against the Word of God) than that false teacher is a false prophet as well.
“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.” 1 Jn 4:1
This is much like Jim and where his dreams have led him. These dreams should have been tested against God’s Word. The scriptures provided in this article are straightforward and plain, and show that the meaning Jim took from these dreams contradicted the Bible.
*Note: Jim does not include his Two Seeds material in his book on Amazon, but does make an offer in his paperback to purchase this additional material in a separate booklet. But Jim makes all of this information available on his website for public viewing. The book is the first level of his teachings, and his website is the second more revealing level of his teachings, which exclusively contains much info his book is in fact founded upon.
Together Jim and Dave Ruffino run the group PAAPSI, which used to be called AACCOA. It purports to be a Christian website to help abductees with being set free from abductions, and help lead them to salvation in Jesus Christ. On this website it has several articles for abductees, and one also teaches “aliens” as of the Satan’s seed:
“The tall 8′ Nordics are probably the subterranean decedents of Cain. They were sentenced to wander in the
PAAPSI’s links include Jim’s website echoesofenoch.org, where abductees unfortunately can learn more from Jim’s claimed “Biblical Christian” teachings, which contradict the essential doctrines of the Authority of the Word of God, Salvation by Grace, the Trinity and Deity of Christ, that Jesus was fully man and fully God, and that Jesus Christ came in the flesh – and beyond these heresies, also teaches the Satan’s or Serpent’s Seed heresy.
