Revival X

The church has largely surrendered the mantle of prophet in favor of the title of salesman. Everything from Christian rock to seeker sensitive ministries has resulted in a lukewarm stew that will soon be vomited out of God's mouth. Music wasn't intended for evangelism. The church service isn't an evangelistic tool. We need to increase the fire, reintroduce holiness and let those who aren't interes...

In today's podcast I discuss two barriers to breakthrough that many people don't consider: 1. They should not pursue full-time ministry, or they should leave full-time ministry. They aren't graced for it. 2. They need to move to a new region. Their next assignment may be located hundreds or thousands of miles away.

Instead of celebrating repentance, many Christians are rejecting the confession of people like Benny Hinn, claiming they are "discerning" the truth beyond the surface. There is no biblical gift of discernment. What they are most often operating from is a gift of suspicion, and you know where that gift comes from.

This is a MUST LISTEN to podcast on a critical issue that is sure to disturb many...with the ultimate goal of warning all about the seriousness and finality of eternity.

I'm SO DONE with all of the foolish church gimmicks pastors are employing to draw a crowd and to create a "fun, family" atmosphere. STOP IT! We need to encounter deity! We need the fire of the Holy Spirit to come down and scorch the church again!

So, there's a rising mean and nasty spirit on social media today regarding failed and flawed ministers. Listen as I deal with how to rightly deal with issues of immorality and false teaching.

BE CAREFUL, use wisdom, be honoring, be teachable and walk in the fear of the Lord whenever you think of labeling someone as a HERETIC! You need to be OK with supporting ministers who you don't always agree with. For example, while I'm definitely in a different camp, you CANNOT DENY that Bill Johnson has some RIDICULOUS wisdom. I'm not a Baptist...not even close...BUT can I grow through certain Ba...

I'm coming at you from a different direction in this podcast. I usually hit on the call to holiness, intensely fulfilling your ministry, etc. Today? I want to encourage you to have FUN! All the time! Fill your life with trips and games and all sorts of childlike FUN!  Amy and I spend a HUGE part of our days developing three businesses that are fully focused on entertainment AND  developi...

It sounds spiritual. It has the appearance of humility. It seems nice. However, it's often flat out wrong and a direct rejection of biblical directives. What is it? Just "praying about it" and letting God handle it. What is "it?" Anything God has mandated us to do. This is why churches have leaders living in sin, and still behind the pulpit. This is why people are hanging out with professing Chris...

We've sadly seen two disappointing replies to two different serious situations in the body of Christ in the span of just a few days. Bethel Church responded very poorly to a request for clarification to a confusing and dangerous post. Rick Joyner responded very poorly to a call for discipline for Todd Bentley. I believe the seduction of hyper-love can be, at least in part, to blame. Millions have...

The uniting of two sinister forces, hyper-grace and hyper-love, has created a ferocious monster that is devastating lives. I believe there are two evil, powerful and seductive demonic spirits that are roaming freely in churches all over the world, and people are celebrating them, promoting them and imparting them into millions of others. These spirits that have already caused extreme destruction i...

CHANGED, a ministry of Bethel Church in Redding, California, included the following statement in a post: God loves all people, LGBTQ+ and straight. The message of CHANGED has never been “All Must Change.” We share these stories specifically for Christians who are unfulfilled in identifying as LGBTQ+. For those of you who feel fulfilled and happy as you are, we love you! Of course, this was immedia...

The seduction of hyper-grace is drawing millions of people away from the truth, and this heretical teaching is filling churches all over the globe. Multiplied millions of people are at risk of Hell, even though they are convinced they are saved and truly following Jesus. This is no longer an epidemic. It's a pandemic.  Epidemic : An outbreak of disease that attacks many peoples at about the s...

So much of today's Christian culture is "drunk on love" and is quick to renounce the concepts of judgment and wrath, fully in opposition to biblical truth. 

There are churches that don't go as far as heretical hyper-grace, but they do promote grace, non-stop, to the exclusion of critical biblical truths. Repentance, hell, sin, brokenness, the terror of the Lord and other core Christian truths are ignored. They may consider themselves to be pro-revival as they focus on the idea that "God is always in a good mood," love, relationships and how excited Go...

I'm so tired of snowflake Christians who can't handle intense truth, hellfire preaching and aggressive messages. They fatten themselves on soft spoken, poetry reading style teachers and worship music that never moves beyond supposed "revelations of love" as they overdose on warm feelings. Trade in your pajamas for armor. Thicken your skin. Arise and fight.

We need integrity and maturity in the prophetic today more than ever! You don't need to be a prophetic weirdo and you don't need to say, "God said," every time you have a spiritual thought! Listen to this podcast and make yourself ready to truly, legitimately hear God's voice.

Okay, a nerve was hit! You have to listen to this raw yet fun podcast. I don't hold back dealing with the nasty spirits that are driving bad tippers. We should tip HUGE no matter the situation! We aren't called to teach servers a lesson, but rather we should be blessing them as people who represent Jesus!

So, I told my wife I was writing an article on sex. She laughed and said, "You don't know anything about sex!" After my crushed ego was healed (not really), I laughed right back and said, "I know! But, people need to hear about the amazing resource we discovered this weekend!" God is ready to breathe life into your marriage and into your sex life. Healing awaits. A life of intimacy and adventure i...

I'm convinced there are MANY pastors who need to step out of pastoral ministry and get a secular job for the sake of their wive's spiritual and emotional health.  The reason many pastors wives are spiritually and emotionally devastated is because people don't know how to honor them, lift their burdens and shower them with praise. When people criticize their husband, gossip, scheme, resist, le...

Even today's most Spirit-filled churches must embrace radical reformation. Listen as I describe the 2 Chronicles church model, a revelation-driven, prophetic model, that must come to the church, and fast.

There are streams, movements, churches and ministries that trouble my spirit, but I'm extremely careful regarding exposing others. What do you think?

People have some strange arguments about biblical obedience, works, holiness, etc. They say it's unnecessary in order to receive God's love. What they don't understand is that it is all necessary to live a dramatic, supernatural, prophetic life. To hear God's voice requires quite a life of devotion. 

We need to stop attempting to redefine God by eliminating characteristics that don't feel nice and sweet to us. God is God. He has no obligation to explain himself to us. While the love he has is overwhelming, his anger and wrath are still in effect today.

An increasing number of Christians leaders are either refusing to take a stand against various sins including homosexuality, or they are outright affirming them. The bigger issue? The church is allowing this compromise to continue.
