The reality is that Bethel is an assortment of false teaching and bizarre charismatic shenanigans. From ‘Little God theology,’ using prophetic Uno cards, going on satanic treasure hunts, teaching that Adam created the animals in Eden, that Michael the Archangel wears tights, and that angels sit around the throne of God having “farting contests,” it’s a hotbed of strange fire burning uncontrollably throughout Christendom, including…”
(Protestia) Bethel Church has released a new update on their ongoing efforts to create organizational health, noting that they are cutting ties with several controversial charismatic leaders they had previously platformed or endorsed. Continue reading
34 But when the Pharisees had heard, that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they assembled together.
35 And one of them, which was an expounder of the Law, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,
36 Master, which is the great commandment in the Law?
37 Jesus said to him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thine heart, with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
38 This is the first and the great commandment.
39 And the second is like unto this, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. 40 On these two commandments hangeth the whole Law and the Prophets Matthew 22:34-40 (1599 Geneva Bible) .
“This one is tricky because Christianity actually sprouts from Jewish roots. However, the split occurs over the identity of the Messiah. Religious Judaism maintains that Jesus did not fulfill the messianic prophecies of the Old Testament and is still waiting for a savior. Christians point to hundreds of prophecies, from Isaiah 53 to Psalm 22, that Jesus fulfilled perfectly. To a Christian, rejecting Jesus means rejecting the very culmination of God’s plan for Israel. It’s like reading a mystery novel but refusing to read the final chapter that reveals the hero.”
“The time for placeholders has passed. The hour demands Joshuas — men and women unafraid to declare truth before hostile powers. May God raise them up, and may discerning voters recognize and support them. The future of our republic, and the witness of the Church within it, may well depend on the choice.”
“It’s just so selfish. The Bidens preached selflessness and service above all — and every decision they’ve made since he decided to run for reelection has been about themselves.” Ouch, that’s quite the indictment. And it’s coming from people who worked for the man.
“The deity of Christ and Trinity are not up for discussion; certain details in eschatology should be. What’s the difference? We can only be as assertive as we have data to back it. Ask yourself how well you can support your conclusion with actual biblical information. An abundance of evidence leads to strong conclusions; weaker or conflicting evidence encourages us to wait and see.”
“Marriage is not merely a piece of paper; it is a living picture of Christ’s unbreakable love for His Bride, the Church (Ephesians 5). By guarding the permanence of the marriage bond, the church protects the innocent, honors God’s creation design, and testifies to a watching world about the faithful, covenant-keeping love of God.”
It wasn’t until shortly before the trial that her own attorney wrote to Trump’s legal team admitting that Carroll had “recollected additional information” while preparing for testimony. Trump’s lawyers noted that the “belated disclosure” raised “significant concerns” about Carroll’s “bias and motive.”
“But here’s the deal: embracing an authentic biblical worldview can empower you to engage in politics with purpose. It allows you to speak truth to power and advocate for justice in a way that reflects the heart of God. We’re called to be salt and light in our communities, and that means standing up for what’s right, even when it’s unpopular.”

14 I am that good shepherd, and know mine, and am known of mine.
15 As the Father knoweth me, so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for my sheep.16 Other sheep I have also, which are not of this fold: them also must I bring, and they shall hear my voice: and there shall be one sheepfold, and one shepherd. John 10:14-16 (1599 Geneva Bible)
“We and others contacted all of these publishers and sent evidence of the Enneagram’s origins, worldview, and teachings, and they all ignored it. The deception was and remains deeply rooted, and it is now being taught in Christian colleges and universities.”
“The Republicans are going to need President Trump to have a lot of clout to keep the voters excited for the midterms. The GOP often finds the apathy of its own voters to be the toughest opponent in elections. Motivation shouldn’t be a problem, given how clinically insane the Democrats are these days.”
“RTS should know better. A seminary claiming faithfulness to the Scriptures should not be linking arms with an organization that has spent years softening the church’s instincts toward feminism, critical theory, political compromise, and therapeutic evangelicalism. Yet here we are. Another conference. Another panel. Another carefully packaged conversation assuring evangelicals that the boundaries still exist while those very boundaries are being erased in practice right before everyone’s eyes.”
“The climate establishment built its policy architecture on a foundation it now concedes was implausible and did so for decades while critics were dismissed as deniers.“
A few years ago I warned you that the wily serpent uses syncretism to separate God from His people. “Everywhere the Gospel of Jesus Christ is proclaimed” says Forrestt McPhail, “Satan aggressively plants false gospels. His goal is to remove the power of the Gospel by stripping it of its key truths.” Evangelicalism has been assimilated into the world because of it.
“So, IS the Holy Spirit whispering to us? Must we sit, or be still, or listen hard, or stay close, or press scars, or DO any other particular thing in order to receive this revelation all the other women seem to be receiving?”
(Robert A.J. Gagnon – Facebook post) Alan Chambers, former head of Exodus International, at the time the largest evangelical Christian ministry for helping same-sex attracted persons to live in obedience to the will of God, solicited a sexual relationship from what he thought was a 14-year old male but actually was an undercover detective. I’ll get to the details in a moment.
