IF you have this man’s books, you must repent of the spiritual adultery of seeking wisdom outside of the LORD and burn them at once or devils will have access to you and your family and home. See Devil’s and Inanimate Objects
What Does Motivational Teacher Stephen Covey Really Believe?
Dr. Michael H. Reynolds
PROVO, UT—Stephen Covey is a world renowned teacher, motivational leader and time management consultant. He, his Covey Leadership Seminars, books and other materials are sought after by Christian denominations, churches, businesses, schools, universities and seminaries. Many defend him strongly while others are wary of this member of the LDS church from Utah who has served his church as a missionary, bishop, mission president, and regional representative of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles along with his duties as a professor at the J.W. Marriott school of business at BYU.
In his best selling book Seven Habits of Highly Effective People Covey says: “To the degree which we align ourselves with correct principles, divine endowments will be released within our nature enabling us to fulfill the measure of our creation.” What are these principles and endowments that Mr. Covey speaks of? What does he really believe about God, Jesus, the trinity, salvation by grace and other essential Christian doctrines?
Let us take a few moments and ask him by using The Divine Center, a book written by Covey which states in clear terms just what he believes. It was first published in 1988 by Bookcraft, an unofficial Mormon publishing house. In interview format we will ask him just what Stephen Covey believes and let him give the answers. The page numbers that follow are from the book The Divine Center.
*Mr. Covey, you are a world renowned author and speaker and many people from many different walks of life look to you for advice and help. What do you see as your main purpose in writing and speaking?
“For many years I have felt and seen the need for an organizing principle in life, a principle that would enable us to get a handle on things . . . My central purpose is to invite readers to examine their faith and lives from a fresh perspective or angle and consequently deepen their commitment to the gospel of Jesus Christ.” (p. IX)
*That certainly sounds good, except that most historical Christians would speak of deepening their commitment to the person of Jesus. Who do you see Jesus to be?
In quoting Apostle Bruce R. McConkie Mr. Covey said, @”Our relationship with the Son is one of brother or sister in the pre-mortal life…”(p. 72)
*What kind of relationship do you think people should have with Jesus?
“I am not indicating any kind of `special’ relationship with him or any other approach that scriptures and modern day prophets would not clearly sanction.”(p.67-68)
*How do you view the relationship between the centrality of Christ in a person’s life and the concept of grace?
“Rather naturally we associate that emphasis with such false concepts as easy salvation by grace alone….We should not allow apostate doctrines and interpretations to preempt in any degree the unquestioned centrality of the Savior to the true gospel we enjoy and to our individual lives.” (p. 68)
*Mr. Covey, I am sure that we would both agree that the church is very important in the life of a Christian. What do you see as the purpose of the church?
The purpose of the Church is to help save all of the living and the dead. To do this it has three essential missions: to preach the gospel to those who have not received it; to perfect the Saints, or those who have received it; and to redeem the dead. (p. 51)
*One of the essential doctrines of historical Christianity is the doctrine of the trinity. What do you think of this doctrine and what do you think it does?
“One of the great behavioral consequences of the apostate doctrine of the Trinity, in which God manifests himself in different ways, is to lead people to believe that we are a creation of God rather than his literal offspring.” (p.82)
*Well, that is not exactly what the Christian doctrine of the trinity is. But for the time being we’ll let that slide. It does bring to mind another point. What do you think of the doctrine of God?
“…Elder Lorenzo Snow (a former prophet of the LDS Church) summarized in his couplet: `As man now is, God once was; As God is, man may become.” (p.81).
*Mr. Covey, how do you think that you can convey your concepts and the LDS gospel to non-Mormons?
“I have found in speaking to various non-LDS groups in different cultures that we can teach and testify of many gospel principles if we are careful in selecting words which carry our meaning but come from their experience and frame of mind.” (p.240)
ConclusionThe Divine Center was obviously written for a Mormon audience and as such we can get to know the real Stephen Covey. Nothing is hidden behind vague statements about God, the scriptures or words like principles and endowments. In the pages of this book Mr. Covey states that the doctrine of the trinity is apostate, denies the concept of salvation by grace alone, gives a completely heretical view of God and offers a purpose for the church that no historical/biblical Christian would ever recognize. The Divine Center shows that not only is Stephen Covey a member of the LDS church, but his own beliefs which form the basis of his principles in all of his other books are clearly and directly opposed to evangelical Christian doctrine.

CALLING OUT THE GUTLESS COWARDS WHO ARE NOT BOTHERED THAT SATAN HAS CORRUPTED THE WORDS AND DOCTRINES OF THE LORD THEY FALSELY CLAIM TO SERVE.
“For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: 19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.” Revelation 22:18-19

Apostasy
Sorcery, Pharmakeia
Originally written by Allegra Spaulding (edited)
This is the Devil’s COUNTERFEIT of the natural healing herbs that the Lord has provided for us.
“And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.” Genesis 1:29
We choose what tree we will eat from……
If we eat from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, then we are receiving demonic knowledge. This is the knowledge from the fallen angels. This is the source of Pharmakeia.
“This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.” James 3:15
Babylon is the epicenter of this witchcraft.
“And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee (Babylon); and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries (Pharmakeia), were all nations deceived.” Revelation 18:23
Babylon is introducing the Beast System of Medicine. The trial run was the Covid 19 agenda which has killed millions of people through blood clots, turbo cancers, and heart failure. It was SORCERY against the nations conducted through the Spirit of Pharmakeia, which includes the witchcraft spirits of Control and Intimidation. People were forced to take a vac-c-ine in order to keep their jobs to feed their families. With devastating consequences. The third leading cause of death in the United States is medical procedures and pharmeseuticals (pharmakeia).
The Lord is calling us out of the system of Pharmakeia. He wants us to repent and separate ourselves.
“And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.” Revelation 18:4
There is a judgment coming upon the spirit of Pharmakeia and we do not want to be entangled with it.
“But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” Revelation 21:8
PHARMAKEUS translates to: a drug, i.e. spell-giving potion; a druggist (“pharmacist”) or poisoner, i.e. (by extension) a magician:—sorcerer.
We have better promises. We can feast on the Tree of Life for our medicine.
“And by the river upon the bank thereof, on this side and on that side, shall grow all trees for meat, whose leaf shall not fade, neither shall the fruit thereof be consumed: it shall bring forth new fruit according to his months, because their waters they issued out of the sanctuary: and the fruit thereof shall be for meat, and the leaf thereof for medicine.” Ezekiel 47:12
It’s time to get healthy and come out of the Babylonian Medical System. Shall we begin with prayer?
Lord Jesus, I repent for seeking the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil for knowledge about my health. I know that You have supplied for all of my needs through natural herbs and the leaves of the Tree of Life. You are the Tree of Life. In Jesus’ name.
May the ungodly soul-ties between myself and the spirit of Pharmakeia be broken now in Jesus’ name. May all the ungodly soul-ties between myself and the medical system, hospitals, doctors, and nurses be broken now in Jesus’ name.
May every curse spoken over this life You gave regarding sickness be broken and cancelled with every medical diagnosis, in Jesus’ name.
Thank You LORD Jesus that according to the Word of God, by Your stripes I am healed! And as I seek Your wisdom and Your knowledge that comes from Heaven.
Lord, please give me wisdom about food intake, about my lifestyle, and about these choices so that I can receive divine health. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
“And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb. 2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.” Revelation 22:1-2
“Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord’s table, and of the table of devils.” 1 Corinthians 10:21
“And he said unto him, Thus saith the Lord, Forasmuch as thou hast sent messengers to enquire of Baal-zebub the god of Ekron, is it not because there is no God in Israel to enquire of his word? therefore thou shalt not come down off that bed on which thou art gone up, but shalt surely die.” 2 Kings 1:16

Run that Ye May Obtain [podcast]
Don’t Walk. “Run.”
Saints we are finishing honest, holy, humble, repentant – crucified with Christ and confessing and never covering any sin (Proverbs 28:13).
1 Corinthians 9:16-27
16 For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!
17 For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me.
18 What is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.
19 For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.
20 And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law;
21 To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law.
22 To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.
23 And this I do for the gospel’s sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you.
24 Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.
25 And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.
26 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:
27 But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.”
