Discerning Witches in Our Churches: End Times Deception
The author of this book, Arewa Gidado-Taylor, sent me the following email on November 10, 2026:
- Dear James,
I deeply appreciate your work in preserving the Closet Witches transcripts of Jack Chick, Dr. Rebecca Brown, and Elaine. Your dedication to exposing false end-time doctrines and revealing biblical truth is a vital service to the body of Christ.
I am reaching out to you because I have recently published a non-fiction testimony that serves as a modern-day confirmation of the exact warnings Dr. Brown laid out in her trilogy. My book is titled Discerning Witches in Our Churches: End Times Deception.
I offered to advertise Arewa’s book on this website if she would send me more information about it. She sent me the following:
- Part One: Before the Fire — Coming to Faith in Jesus Christ (Chapters 1–5): The book opens with my personal journey from growing up in a lukewarm household and being trapped in the Jehovah’s Witness cult to a near-death emergency during surgery in Istanbul, Turkey. When my heart rate climbed near 300 beats per minute and doctors prepared to intervene, I cried out to God—and Jesus Christ miraculously spared my life, revealed Himself to me through visions, and radically saved me.
- The Infiltration, Prophetic Vision & The Cauldron (Part Two, Chapters 6–11): After being led to a Messianic congregation, I met a woman who had blended into the assembly for years without anyone suspecting her true identity. Even though God warned me about her, I disobeyed His warning and allowed her to move into our basement. Shortly after, the Lord gave me a prophetic vision of her brewing a witch’s cauldron—and just a day or two later, I walked into my own kitchen and caught her red-handed making that exact cauldron (Chapter 11, “The Pot”).
- The Black Foam Board Altar & Satan as a Legalist (Chapters 13 & 18): We discovered she had built a black foam board altar containing my name alongside the names of other members from our congregation, actively placing hexes on us. Through this furnace, the Lord taught me a sobering truth: Satan is a strict legalist. Because of my own disobedience in ignoring God’s warning and moving in with her, I unknowingly gave the enemy a legal foothold and open door to attack our home.
- The Midnight Hours & The Stabbing Attack (Chapter 17): Living under the same roof exposed the extreme, deadly reality of occult bondage. In Chapter 17 (“The Midnight Hours”), I recount a terrifying late-night spiritual and physical escalation involving a violent stabbing incident—and how God’s hand of protection preserved our lives.
- A Séance at the Congregation, The Second Witch & Leadership Rejection (Chapters 8, 23 & 33): Undercover witches do not attend church by accident. In Chapter 8, I detail how she conducted a séance right inside the congregation, and in Chapter 23 (“The Second Witch”), how another witch was sent into the exact same assembly shortly after she left to continue the assignment. Sadly, when I followed the biblical Matthew 18 approach to report these witches, the congregational leadership grew tired of the warnings and kicked my family out.
- How to Discern Witches & 50 Definitions for the Church (Part Three, Part Four & Resources): This book serves as a complete field guide outlining my encounters with witches both inside and outside the church. It exposes exactly what they do in congregations, how they behave, and includes 50 essential definitions in the back so the Church is not ignorant of the enemy’s devices (2 Corinthians 2:11). Today, my husband and I take the light directly onto enemy territory—evangelizing to over 50 covens and ministering at public events like “The Witches’ Walk” (Chapter 25), which even drew retaliatory 1-star reviews on my Amazon page from the very witches we witnessed to! I have also reached out to over 50 covens in an attempt to bring them from darkness into God’s marvelous light.
This is what Amazon has to say about the book:
Discerning Witches in Our Churches: End Times Deception – The Witch in the Basement: A True Testimony is a powerful Christian testimony about spiritual warfare, discernment, deception within the Church, and the authority of Jesus Christ in the last days.
Author Arewa Gidado-Taylor shares her real-life experience of unknowingly befriending and later living with a woman from her former church congregation who was secretly involved in witchcraft and occult practices. What began as a normal friendship turned into intense spiritual warfare involving demonic attacks, manipulation, fear, and supernatural experiences that forced the author to depend completely on Jesus Christ.
The book also explores end-times deception, including encounters with demonic entities that appeared in forms resembling so-called “alien” beings, while emphasizing that all demonic spirits flee at the name of Jesus Christ.
Throughout the testimony, the author calls the Body of Christ back to repentance, holiness, prayer, fasting, obedience, and biblical discernment. The book also discusses occult infiltration in churches, counterfeit Christianity, and spiritual deception while sharing how the author reached out to over 50 covens with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Ultimately, this book is a call for believers to wake up spiritually and prepare for the soon return of Jesus Christ.
Order it from Amazon.
It’s also available on Barnes & Nobel.
