(Ray Fava – Evangelical Darb Web) The slow-to-arrive report on Mike Bickle has finally been released, in part, over a year after Bickle was removed from the International House of Prayer. The report details that Mike Bickle sexually abused or harassed 17 women. Mike Bickle was an instrumental cornerstone in the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) movement which elevates teachers to Apostles. The International House of Prayer was one of the most influential organizations in this movement.
The report was published by Firefly which does not begin its report exuding confidence in the process.
The credibility of this report is founded on the collective and corroborating testimony of the experiences of the victims and witnesses. It is not reliant on any single experience or victim, but rather on the consistent and overlapping accounts that paint a comprehensive picture of the systemic issues and misconduct within IHOPKC. This approach ensures that no single testimony is isolated, but instead, is part of a larger narrative that illustrates the extent and severity of the issues. This collective testimony strengthens the report’s validity and highlights the urgent need to address the identified problems and implement changes to create a safer and more supportive environment.
The report then lambasted Bickle for alleged grooming, detailing his interactions with minors in trusted families. He is then accused of grooming for offering wine to young women while in Paris on a mission trip.
CRN has compiled a list of false teachers and several other professing Christians we’ve warned you about over the years. The list also contains those we must keep an eye on plus movements, organizations and “frauds, phonies and money-grubbing religious quacks” to mark and avoid as per Romans 16:17-18 such as Mike Bickle.
