Mike Bickle and the false gospel of works

“You are saved, but your life was wasted.”

This was a message from “Jesus” to Mike Bickle, director of IHOP with head quarter in Kansas City, US.

Mike Bickle, founder and director of IHOP-KC, on Wednesday gave a message about being consumed with zeal for the work of God.

He shared about a supernatural encounter he had in 1978 where he saw Jesus in a vision. Jesus said to him, “You are saved, but your life was wasted.” He asked in the experience if he could have a second chance, but the Spirit’s replied “it is appointed unto man to die once, then comes the judgment” from Hebrews 9:27.

He said when he came to he was kneeling on the floor, crying instead of being in his bed. He shared that the pain of regret he experienced in that vision is still vivid and is the greatest pain he ever felt in his life.

Bickle felt that God allowed him to feel deep sorrow and regret so that he would not live a life that would bring him regret on the last day. God also challenged him to not live with the low measure of dedication that is common in the Western church, or else Jesus will say on the last day that his life was saved but wasted.

“I understood that I have only one chance on the earth, like every one of us. We only have one opportunity and then we die and then the evaluation – the judgment means the evaluation,” said Bickle.

“The judgment isn’t always negative, but it means the truth about our life comes to light.”

The IHOP-KC founder said it is not important how big this conference is, how big the ministry grows, or who does or does not like him. The most important thing in his and the attendees’ lives is what is on Jesus’ mind on the day of judgment.

“In the Western church, there is a whole lot of us that walk around with the image of dedication but we are not obeying the word of God with all of our hearts,” he said.

Most people ask the wrong question – how little can I do and still remain in the kingdom of God. Instead, they should ask how far will God let them go in their faith.

“I have a number of fears, but the thing I fear the most is regret,” said Bickle. “I fear having regret on the last day more than any other thing. If I stand before Him and have regret it is the greatest tragedy a believer can have. We are not in the lake of fire, we are in the kingdom of God. But the pain of regret, knowing on that day how much He gave us and how little we responded to Him, and that though we are saved we were wasted.”

My comment:

Mike Bickle believe’s in semi-salvation by a “Jesus” who died on a cross. Because what took place on the cross is no perfect righteousness in front of God. A man still has to strife for a kind of undefined, self-righteousness to avoid getting the “wasted” mark on his life on Earth.

What Bickle is trying to teach us, is that judgment did not take place 2000 years ago, when Jesus died on the cross. There is another judgment a head of believers, where there will be an “evaluation” of mans work.

This is the kind of garbage and pollution that has entered into the body of Jesus, through the so-called Third Wave Movement.

Mike Bickle and the Pope in Rome preach a similar gospel. Both denying the power of the cross at Calvary. Life on Earth has to become an uncertain rally to please God with our good works. And only a Vatican ordained Bishop, or a Charismatic Bishops in Kansas city, will be able to tell where the red line is drawn. When the tag “wasted” will be removed, and the final “approval” will be gained, purchased or obtained.

This is a message of spiritual slavery, a message from the pit. Men like Bickle have not understood that Jesus also nailed the filthy rags of mans works to the cross. Matthew 7:21-23, display the face value of man’s self proclaimed works.

All readers: Please underline: “Man is saved by faith alone, in Jesus alone, separated from works”.

A Christian is something you are. Not a “something” you are going to achieve by works. Either you have understood this and “are”, or you “are not”. You have multiple chances to follow Jesus every day, by simply “being” and expose the truth.

A true Christian will not even take notice of the good works he automatically are doing, lead by the Holy Spirit. The left hand is not supposed to register what the right hand is doing.

Rome and Kansas city are both centers of “super revelations”, distribution of deceptions, and doctrines taught by demons.

John Piper preach like Hitler: “Jews are enemies of God”

John Piper is the Pastor for Preaching at Bethlehem Baptist Church in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He grew up in Greenville, South Carolina.

piper_hands — John Piper preach Replacement Theology, a man after Hitlers heart.

I would not have paid much attention to this man, if his teachings had not been so incredible anti-Jewish. Lets see what John Piper claims:

Israel has broken covenant with her God and is living today in disobedience and unbelief in his Son and her Messiah. That is why Paul says in Romans 11:28, “As regards the gospel [the good news of the Messiah] they are enemies of God.”

(Used Bible, English Standard version).

Source:

Lets take a look at a more “conservative” English translation of the Bible.

Romans 11:28
As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the father’s sakes.

(Old King James).

There seems like Satan in playing a trick on men like John Piper, and those who make “liberal” translation of the Bible.

That the Jews are enemies of the gospel for OUR sake, is something very different from them being “enemies of god”. I guess Something good came out of God’s partly hardening of their heart.

What men like Piper is doing is to brand the Jews as some kind of Satanists walking on Earth.

Pipers understanding of the Bible, is similar to the understanding of Adolf Hitler. God has always destroyed His enemies, and Hitler felt he just gave God a helping hand during the Holocaust.

Do not listen to neither Hitler nor Piper.

A smart way of twisting scripture, is to delete half of a verse, to make it fit into a man made doctrine.

Since the Jews are loved by God, for the sake of the forefathers, I feel we should listen to God. Let Him deal with men like Hitler and Piper.

US Pastor: Quit Facebook or leave full time Christian Ministry

20 Christian leaders in a US Church face marriage problems after old flames contacted their spouses through Facebook.

Cedric-Miller-006 — Pastor Cedric Miller are demanding a ban from Facebook for those who wants to be in full time Christian Ministry.

Pastor Cedric Miller from Living World Fellowship Church in US New Jersey has given the leaders of the congregation an “offer”.

Either you quit Facebook, or you decline from full time Christian ministry.

The reason for this drastic step, is that 20 couple in this Christian Church of 1.100 members, have faced marriage problems because of adultery connected to Facebook publishing. Old flames turn up on this social media channel, and leads married people into adultery.

Because of the problems, Miller is ordering about 50 married church officials to delete their accounts with the social networking site or resign from their leadership positions.

He had previously asked married congregants to share their login information with their spouses and now plans to suggest that they give up Facebook altogether.

“I’ve been in extended counseling with couples with marital problems because of Facebook for the last year and a half,” he said.

“What happens is someone from yesterday surfaces, it leads to conversations and there have been physical meet-ups. The temptation is just too great.”

Miller is married and has a Facebook account that he uses to keep in touch with six children, but he will heed his own advice and cancel his account this weekend.

My comment:

I have for a long time warned about the use of Facebook. But I am yet to take the drastic step, done by this US Pastors.

But maybe I will have to follow suit.

In regards to sin. You will be more exposed to porn and prostitution if you visit a red light area, than if you take a walk in the forest.

It is like this with Facebook. Old flames die hard. They suddenly turn up on social media. By just clicking, you can enter straight into their bedroom.

I regards to adultery, the information you publish on Facebook is easily copies, adultered, and mass distributed.

Facebook is the main canal for petty gossips.

People who have listed on Facebook, will face an interesting challenge. It is impossible to delete your Facebook account. You have given the website the ownership over the details you have published.

Britain’s top soldier says al-Qaeda cannot be beaten

The new head of Britain’s armed forces, General Sir David Richards, has warned that the West cannot defeat al-Qaeda and militant Islam.

He said defeating Islamist militancy was “unnecessary and would never be achieved”.

However, he argued that it could be “contained” to allow Britons to lead secure lives.

Gen Richards, 58, said the threat posed by “al-Qaeda and its affiliates” meant Britain’s national security would be at risk for at least 30 years.

The general, who will tomorrow lay a wreath at the Cenotaph in Whitehall in memory of Britain’s war dead, said the West’s war against what he described as a “pernicious ideology” had parallels with the fight against Nazi Germany in the Second World War.

In an interview with The Sunday Telegraph, the general disclosed that Prince William was unlikely to serve in Afghanistan but suggested that his brother Harry, training to be an Apache helicopter pilot, could return to front-line duty in Helmand province.

He said the British military and the Government had been “guilty of not fully understanding what was at stake” in Afghanistan and admitted that the Afghan people were beginning to “tire” of Nato’s inability to deliver on its promises.

FILE PHOTO OF OSAMA BIN LADEN — Osama Bin Laden has defeated the Royal Army.

However, he said the sacrifice being made by the Armed Forces in Afghanistan, where 343 soldiers have been killed since 2001, “has been worth it”. Progress was being made and Nato was “in the right parish”. He said: “Don’t give up folks, it’s all to play for.”

The general also dismissed suggestions that troops badly injured fighting in Iraq or Afghanistan would ever be “forced” to leave the Armed Forces, but said most of those seriously wounded wanted to leave to begin new careers.

He rejected claims by former senior Royal Navy chiefs who said scrapping the aircraft carrier Ark Royal and the Harrier force would jeopardise the security of the Falkland Islands. But it is the general’s assertion that victory against militant Islam cannot be achieved that is likely to prove most contentious.

The general said:

“In conventional war, defeat and victory is very clear cut and is symbolised by troops marching into another nation’s capital. First of all you have to ask: do we need to defeat it [Islamist militancy] in the sense of a clear cut victory?

I would argue that it is unnecessary and would never be achieved.

“But can we contain it to the point that our lives and our children’s lives are led securely? I think we can.”

He also said the real weapon in the war against al-Qaeda was the use of “upstream prevention” as well as “education and democracy”. The problems that gave rise to militant Islamism were unlikely to be solved soon, he added.

On the issue of future wars, the general said he could see no case for military intervention in other countries “at the moment” but added that he would be “barmy to say that one day we wouldn’t be back in that position”.

My comment:

There were men that felt Nazi-Germany could not be defeated. One of them was the war time US Ambassador to London, Joseph Kennedy. The father of US President John F. Kennedy. Both Roman Catholics.

He worked for closer corporation between the US and Nazi Germany during the 1930-ties, and said during the battle for Britain in 1940: “democracy is finished in Britain”.

What if people had listened to men like Kennedy?

Than the whole of Europe would have been ruled by the Nazi-party today. And there would not have been a Jew left on the surface of the Earth.

God of the Bible did not agree with Ambassador Kennedy. He used men like Winston Churchill to mobilize enough men to drive the Nazi’s back towards Berlin.

Nazism was defeated, despite support from men like Joseph Kennedy.

Today, the United Kingdom has started to listen to men that would have kept Hitler ruling in Europe. Men like General Sir David Richards.

Their new idol is Osama Bin Laden, a man that is hell bent on accomplishing what Hitler never managed to do. And now the top UK General feel al-Qaeda will succeed.

But behold.

Men like General Sir David Richards is not above God of the Bible. Wicked men will not gain the final victory. The final victory belongs to the Lion of Judah. The Son of David will some and spoil the parties both in London and in the tribal belt of Pakistan.

God will gather both this general and Osama to the final battle. The final judgment will take place in Zion.
