For what it's worth, this vision simply sounds sequitur of all the non-denominational raves I've been hearing on the internet ever since I've been on any Christian forum, how denominations are bad, and those outside the denominational structure - or at least are in opposition - are correct, as if a denomination cannot be correct. The idea of God using every one who is not part of that structure and rejecting those in the deoniminational system.. I go to a denominational church. We have a very godly pastor, our church heeds the prophetic voice, we've taken heavy initiative to reach this city for Christ, we don't practice closed-door communion and service, and there are so many people here who love God, their hearts lie with Him, and desire to be used by Him, but are they not worthy simply because they're part of a denomination?
The idea of using the uneducated... yes he can, though at the same time it's making sound like education is a bad thing. I know many college graduates, from both secular and bible colleges, who have a very strong desire to follow the Lord and would pack up and leave the moment He gave the word; if He sends them, they'll go. As a matter of fact, many go to college because they simply want to expand their gifts to be of further use in God's kingdom. I go to a secular college, but I hope one day to go to a bible college to make sure I have strong theological grounding so I may be more effective to others. I am going to a secular college for business so I could do administration for a church someday too, since many churches need that kind of person. I've had friends go off and try and do their own thing without being educated - that is, they won't even sit under a church leader - and just wound up realizing how much they needed it.
Honestly, this doesn't sound like any new concept to me. I've heard the non-denom rant many times before, and this sounds like another version.
