Open Letter to Wagner, Joyner from Andrew Strom

OPEN LETTER to WAGNER, JOYNER…
-by Andrew Strom.

I write this as a tongues-speaking, Spirit-filled, prophesying
believer.

Dear Rick Joyner and C. Peter Wagner,

I will do my utmost to avoid disrespect in this letter. But I cannot avoid the hard questions which must be asked.

I hope my comments here are not construed as “arrogant”. This
is certainly not my intent. But I’m sure you have heard the news by now that the tide has turned in what you call your “Civil War”.

Are Wagner’s Apostles Leaving? Fallout from Todd Bentley’s lies continues …

Are WAGNER’s APOSTLES LEAVING??
-Andrew Strom.

Last week we published a number of strong statements against
Lakeland by one of Peter Wagner’s ‘apostles’ named Robert
Ricciardelli. For those who are not aware, Peter Wagner heads
up an organization devoted to setting in place “apostles” over the church. This is known as the ‘New Apostolic Reformation’ (NAR), and it has been very controversial. I myself have never seen it as any kind of true “Reformation” – because all it seems to do is set up another level of hierarchy over the existing ones.

Why I don’t trust the Todd Bentley Lakeland phenomenon

July 1, 2008 16 Comments

Dear friends in Christ,

Even before the Lakeland phenomenon broke out, I heard a report about Todd Bentley’s meetings on the Gold Coast that dismayed me somewhat. It had to do with the way he raises money, by telling people that they should “sow” money into his anointing so that they can receive an impartation of it.

I can’t say I was prejudiced against these meetings from the start. In fact I had heard of Todd Bentley and knew he moved to some extent in gifts of healing and miracles for some years. I hadn’t read anything that looked really wrong.

How People Become False Prophets

June 28, 2008 7 Comments

Jesus told us to watch out for false prophets. If they were powerless to deceive born again Christians, I don’t think Jesus would have told us to “take heed”.

In this article, I show how true Christians can become false prophets. The Bible clearly shows that there are men who start off hearing and obeying the LORD God, who end up as soothsayers and destroyers of God’s people.

The New Testament warns us in 2 Peter 2 and the Book of Jude to watch out for arrogant, money loving preachers. Paul warned us against the times when people would heap up teachers who tell them what their itching ears want to hear. You won’t hear too many expositions of these passages on Christian TV today. What a pity, they were never more needed.

A Watchman/Prophetic Ministry worth Hearing

June 22, 2008 No Comments

In my view, many of the big-name ministries of today’s pentecostal/charismatic world have now entered into deception. The love of money has corrupted them.

The sin of Balaam is to seek to prophesy and trade in spiritual things for FINANCIAL REWARD. If its not obvious to you that the majority of television preachers/prophets today on the major networks are doing just that, then I submit to you that you need to WAKE UP.

I have stumbled upon the website of a minister of the Word of God who is exhorting people to REPENT. It seems that his prophetic warnings are COMING TO PASS.

Your Money Perish with you!

June 9, 2008 No Comments

Simon was a sorcerer who had impressed the people of Samaria with his occultic powers for a long time. But when he heard the gospel and saw the power of God moving through Philip the evangelist – especially in miraculous healing and deliverance from evil spirits, he believed and was baptized. I wish the story had ended there concerning this man, but it does not.

The Circuit Rider vs the Televangelist

September 20, 2007 No Comments

Michael Edds contrasts the attitudes, lifestyle and pretensions of a modern televangelist with a pioneering Methodist missionary from a former century.

Which one is demonstrating Christ more, do you think?

Did Benny Hinn give false prophecies?

March 19, 2007 13 Comments

We like to believe in our christian heroes, especially those who seem to be so much more anointed than your average Christian. But with greater exposure comes greater accountability. The ability to raise funds and buy lots of TV time does not constitute God’s endorsement. If raising money was proof of God’s favour, then the Roman Catholics, the Mormons and the various gurus like Sathya Sai Baba would clearly have God’s favour even more than the most “anointed” televangelist.
