Note: I write both in defense of revelation experiences that included appearances of people no longer alive and exposure of “Gnostic creep” in false, super-spiritual flights of fancy that misrepresent the BIble’s “how things really work in the spirit” foundation for revelatory ministry. I had a discourse and discussion in social media about the question […]

The motive for new translations is seldom about updating the language of the message to those that are reading it. The motive is to produce a translation that fits the doctrinal idolatry of a neo-theology. For example, one “scholar” suffering from severe intellectual dishonesty defines “ekklesia” as “a word that came to mean the [fill […]

When the Reformation challenge the apostate churchism, Renaissance arrived to open the world to “culture without spiritual influence.” The moment the kingdom sought to restore grace to “church,” hell tried to remove the kingdom’s influence from culture. The church was powerless to stop Renaissance. The church was so enamored with the exaggerations of Roman Catholic […]

Are we in the kingdom of God? Yes. Are we in the fullness of the Kingdom of God on Earth as it is in Heaven? No. Are we anticipating the expansion of the Kingdom of God on Earth? Yes. Are we expecting that the fullness of the kingdom of God on Earth requires the King […]

Growing up, I remembered the time Jerry Falwell preached that the local church was the storehouse for all tithe only to have John R. Rice take him to task for that message. Jerry backed down real fast because he had no Bible basis for making this claim. This discussion has been on-going for generations, and […]

Among them, I saw in the Spirit a kingdom-wide movement to capitalize the greatest harvest […]

I read the statement three times: “Read the New Testament, and you will see that every city had one church with many house churches, with one apostle who planted churches leading.” The authors of this statement – I combined three authors I consider friends and noble apostles – arrived at these conclusions because we hammered […]

Elijah tells Elisha that he has asked for something big if he wants to be a firstborn inheritor of Elijah’s leadership among the other prophets. He says, “If you are there when God takes me from you, you will receive it.” How many mantles lie about the world fell upon no one because the one […]

Honor includes monetary investment. Honor is value. Honor is not exclusively commodified. That is, honor is not for sale, but it is worthy of offering. A kingdom leader is not for sale. He cannot be given proper monetary value. While some kingdom leaders set a price for doing a certain thing, the value of a […]

The Bible records that Jesus and His disciples twice faced deadly storms. God did not send the storm to kill Jesus and His disciples. During the storm, God exposed their hearts in the deepest places. Some people conceptualize this as “God using the devil.” I understand that characterization and why you might use it, but […]
