Calling Elim Churches to Repent 🇬🇧

This video is unpleasant but it is vital for the body of Christ being built up in love and healed from iniquity. But it also specifically calls the charismatic Elim network of churches in the U.K. to repent of their failure to discern truth from error and for failing to relate with my recent correspondence about this issue…

Bethel’s Heresy & The Naiveté of the Local Church

Over the course of the last decade, Mairi and I have actually sat privately with senior pastors who have held Bill Johnson high and aloft as ‘the’ man to listen to and follow and read. We have sat within local churches in Edinburgh who promote “Bethel students” whose indoctrination by the hands of Johnson and Bethel have been endorsed and encouraged.

Here is the video in question: This is the best I can do to be as gracious as possible while unashamedly seeking to address one primary audience: thoseContinue reading “Rediscover Bethel (a response to Bill Johnson & Dann Farrelly)”

What We Say About Jesus

We are living at an hour in church history where, once again, what the Church says about Jesus is being increasingly scrutinised. To put it another way, we are living at a pivotal moment of importance in which God is forcing the Bride to face squarely in the eye what it is that we sayContinue reading “What We Say About Jesus”
