Post 28. Good to hear from you GP53. Hope you and yours are doing well. Thanks for the feedback on Mike B.
LOL.
Dear MEGoody, RE: Post 2,
Thank you for giving an account of your firsthand experience. I will keep this in mind.
Joya
I remember hearing a Pastor who had just come back from Lakeland about two years ago exactly threaten his congregation with blaspheming the Holy Spirit if they did not believe the miracles that the “kick the old lady in the head” Todd Bentley “performed”.
Satan also can do miracles and we must be Bereans because of how many times the Lord warns us against deception.
Bless you.
I am not accusing you or anybody. I am not threatening you or anybody.
I do not want anyone to blaspheme the Holy Spirit. We ALL need to avoid it. ALL of us:
Mike Bickle, Hank Hanegraffe, and everybody in between.
I appreciate your holy fear, blessings.
Who is Mike Bickle?
He is a guy who hooked up in the “Sherparding” or “shepard’s rod” movement of the seventies and then hooked up with an infamous false prophet named Bob Jones a few years later to form the IHOP movement in kansas city, missouri.
Google around. Bickle seems okay, but for example, there is no such position in the New Testament church as an ‘intercessory missionary” who raises money so they can basically pray all the time. Prayer is great but faith without works is dead and no one should every take money or be paid to pray... it nullifies the who purpose of sacrificial prayer! I could say a lot but look up articles by Freeper Pastor Bill Randles who chronicled a lot of the NAR IHOP movements in his books. And google around... its a dangerous situation... end time apostasy. Bless you
wow I must be tired... sorry for the typos on my last to you.
P.S. that’s also a good answer about Jonah’s prophecy to Ninevah...
I can not spell so I rarely notice typos :)
Thanks for the info
:)
And, had we heard Jonah’s words and see Nin not be destroyed, much of modern Christianity would have labeled him a false prophet.
Is this a big deal in theological circles... about Jonah?
I am confused as to how anyone could think Jonah was not a true prophet since Jesus discussed Jonah, regardless of the eventuality of what happened to Ninevah. I guess I don’t see the connection between Jonah’s prophecy over Ninevah and what happened much later to it?
I thought it was a simple point to make - sometimes prophets say things that don’t happen as we think at the current time. Jonah, other prophecies ( like 70 weeks) - things don’t happen the way we think based on what ‘the prophet’ said, so we declare someone ‘not a prophet’. But, over time, we understand. Like I said, I thought it was a simple point, I evidently can’t communicate it...
NAR? Nephews of the American Revolution? National Association of Rifles?
Anyway IHOP has good omelets.
