Alexander Pagani is the pastor and Apostle-in-residence at Amazing Church Global in NY and one of the main men in the modern “deliverance minister” pack that includes fellow travelers Isaiah Saldivar, Vladimir Savchuck, Daniel Adams, Mike Signorelli, and Kathryn Krick.
Speaking at the National Deliverance Training Conference, which took place at Greg Locke’s church, he offers this novel teaching, repeatedly referencing his own apostleship:
God starts changing your mind from being ‘Jesus-centered’ to ‘Holy-Spirit centered’. Let me finish this thought. It’s not called the ‘gifts of Jesus,’ it’s called the ‘gifts of the Holy Spirit.’ It’s not called the ‘fruit of Jesus,’ it’s called ‘the fruit of the Holy Spirit.’ You’re not even called the ‘Temple of Jesus,’ we are called the ‘Temple of the Holy Spirit.’
…Why am I saying this? Because you could get away with a lot in Jesus but you can’t get away with that in the Holy Ghost. Can I get you mad? I’m an apostle so I’m going to get you mad in a little bit. Watch this: this is why modern evangelicalism loves to stay in Jesus. Want to know why? Because Jesus won’t condemn you. You can be gay and be a Christian but you can’t be gay and be in the kingdom. You could blaspheme Jesus, he’ll forgive you, but you can’t blaspheme the Holy Ghost.”
Bonus: For more on Pagani, growing up as a troubled youth embroiled in a life of crime, he once stabbed two 17-year-olds while serving time in prison, resulting in a year in solitary confinement. Pagani claims that while in prison, he used to use bible pages as rolling papers and that when he smoked a substance in them, it caused him to understand the scriptures. He claims Jesus literally and bodily appeared to him in his jail cell and told him, “Follow me,” which resulted in him being saved.
After serving a nearly nine-year sentence, he got out and started pastoring a “five-fold ministry” church. Plagued by a porn addiction since his youth, Pagani recounts that he only overcame it by having the demons of lust cast out of him during an exorcism, which was the catalyst for his new ministry focus of deliverance ministry.
Built in the model of well-known deliverance ministers like Isaiah Saldivar, Vladimir Savchuck, Daniel Adams, Mike Signorelli, and Kathryn Krick, Pagani holds many of the typical views.
He believes that demons can possess Christians without the believer ever knowing it, puts on schools where he teaches people how to become prophets for about a hudred bucks, believes that as an apostle, he has the power and authority to ordain other apostles, believes men and women can have the sex- demons of incubus and succubus inside of them, prompting to act out sexually against their spouse while they sleep, and wrote a book The Secrets to Deliverance, which contains revelations he claims the Holy Spirit gave him divine insight into.
