“Let me put it bluntly: Contemplative prayer results in spiritual blindness, and this is why “leaders” such as Rick Warren, Beth Moore, and Mike Bickle are simply unable to comprehend the vast difference between Catholic teaching and biblical Christianity.”
(John Lanagan – The Word Like Fire) According to IHOP founder Mike Bickle:
When I was in my 20s I was asked to pastor a church and I never officially went back to the Catholic Church, but I also don’t feel like I intentionally left it either. At the House of Prayer, I encourage people to learn the teachings of the Catholic saints, as the experts on contemplative prayer, such as Theresa of Avila and St. John of the Cross.

(Sean Michael Lucas) Throughout the centuries, pastors have tried to understand what God is doing in their congregations. Sometimes, there have been periods of dryness and deadness when there has seemed to be little interest in God’s Word, even among those who claim to be Christians. But at other times, there have been periods of “great awakening” when God has seemed to be on the move, when people have experienced intense spiritual interest, and when revival has seemed to be all around. 
“The Asbury “revival” is a product of social media. It was not a revival until someone posted a video of the gathering on TikTok. It was labeled a revival, and the video went viral. The footage reveals young people swaying, as if in a trance, while the music played. There are interludes during the worship when students repented and testified. When compared with genuine revivals, the Asbury gathering comes up well short of being a genuine revival. I will explain, but I must provide some information.”

“Why indeed would Brinton have wanted to steal women’s luggage in the first place? That question gets to the heart of the problem: the very thing for which the Biden regime celebrated Brinton appears to be exactly the same thing that led him to commit acts that have gotten him charged with felony theft.” 
“And these are all the people who are headed to Asbury University next week to conduct a huge false prophet festival.” 
“Bethel Church has done something that even at its worst, it has never done before. They are now baptizing openly professing homosexuals to the applause of the entire congregation.”
“The reporting of life-threatening conditions increased over 4,400%.”
“One of his concerns is how to shape the necessary policies to ensure new technologies serve humankind. [Who elected this guy?] His other concern is change goes so fast; how can we make sure each citizen can deal with the change he doesn’t understand? He thinks government also has a big role in this. They will on the controlling end. We saw how that worked during the pandemic.”
“As Christians, we believe that there is a spiritual battle going on and that we are called to fight that battle through prayer. We should be praying for discernment, protection from deception, and the Holy Spirit’s guidance as we seek to know and follow Christ.”
“I’ve been sounding the communist alarm for almost two years now. Liberty will soon be a memory. The bolshies have infiltrated every institution in the nation and beyond our borders as well.”
(Protestia) Damar Hamlin has issued a public apology for wearing a jacket with images of a crucified Jesus to the Superbowl, explaining that “after talking with my parents I understand how my coat could have offended some people” and that “it was never my intentions to hurt or disrespect anyone.” Hamlin went on to explain that his “beliefs and relationship with God is not tied to symbolic images” and that he just considered it “abstract art.
(Rob Golding – Fight of Faith) Penal substitutionary atonement is difficult to understand, in part because we fail to conceive of the parties involved properly. Matters are complicated when the likes of N.T. Wright hyperbolically refer to “justification” in the traditional sense as a mysterious “gas” that passes through the courtroom. Others imagine God is like a judge who condemns his son to prison because another man stole someone else’s car. If Sam steals Bob’s car, it makes little sense to imprison little Joey, the judge’s son. Many see here “cosmic child abuse.” 
“More than half of the country view the media as “the enemy of the American people” ought to put the fear of God into every man and woman working at every news website, cable news outlet, newspaper, broadcast media and news analysis and opinion website.”
“In 2020, Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar issued a new notice of declaration under the Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness (PREP) Act to provide immunity for activities related to ‘countermeasures’ against Marburg virus and/or Marburg Disease. That’s exactly what they did with COVID. It’s happening again.”
The New Evangelicals posted a tweet that stated “Just met with an openly queer student who said ultimately they have seen progress at the school over the past 4 years and believe this revival is planting seeds that will do more good than harm.”
(Maria Lencki – Fox News) Fox News contributor Dr. Marc Siegel says social media may have a lot to do with America’s mental health crisis among teenage girls.
(Ray Rava – Evangelical Dark Web) It’s amazing how many liberals saved their outrage for the He Gets Us commercials which aired during the Super Bowl. Last week, 
“Given the secrecy and lack of rigorous standards that characterize youth gender transition across the country, I believe that to ensure the safety of American children, we need a moratorium on the hormonal and surgical treatment of young people with gender dysphoria.”
“Bentley once claimed he healed seven deaf people in one night and also claims to raise people from the dead. On one occasion, after claiming to raise someone from the dead in a hospital, Chris Rosebrough called the hospital only to say that there was no record of what Bentley claimed.” 
“What exactly are these teachers doing to children? These “other strategies” are educating generations of children who learn to hate reading and struggle to read at their own grade level.”
It is clear that Shawn Bolz, Bob Jones, Todd Bentley, and all of those associated with this hyper-charismatic New Apostolic Reformation modern-day prophetic movement are all false prophets and false teachers. Jesus says in
