A message from Adam to all of humanity as given to Pastor Rick Joyner!

Where do you personally think that Pastor Rick Joyner got this message?

  • I tend to strongly suspect that his message is from God and is probably true!

  • I suspect that Rick Joyner is one of the most intelligent Christian deceivers.

  • I suspect that Rick Joyner may have been involved in LSD tests in the '60's!

  • OK, that is pretty good...I think I will read it one more time!!!!

In a way it does address your questions because I can assure you that my wife has all kinds of flaws in spite of her amazing gifts!

When one of G-d's people is given what might even be termed a mantle or an anointing it seems that fallen angels move in on them in a way that is not done for somebody who hides their talents and thus is no threat to the enemy!

No one denied that others can have gifts in spite of flaws. The issue was whether having a gift means that they should be supported in all things, just as there are many amazing speakers/teachers and yet in sin...by no means meaning that they should be given a free pass at all costs. For that's not in line with the Word---and in many cases, it can be damaging when the Lord made clear that ANYONE not supporting what Christ said is not to be supported.


THe following verses are some of the ones that are often brought up when it comes to false teachings and things of that nature.

Galatians 1:8
Romans 16:17-18
2 Thes 3:14
2 John 9-10
1 Peter 2:1, 2
Gal 2:14
Titus 1:9
2 Tim 2:24, 25

There're others of course...but the list isn't exhaustive. In the epistle to Titus, there were false teachers there which were doing much damage and Titus was told to rebuke them sharply:

Titus 1

However, in the fellowship where Timoty was stationed, there were false teachers there as well…and yet Timothy was given instructions on how to deal with the situation as well

II Timothy 2

Again, both fellowships were involving false teachers…..and my question is—in light of the popular statment that all false teachers/those holding to their teachings were always severely denounced, why does there seem to be a distinction if false teachers are always supposed to be labeled ONE WAY ONLY (i.e. with sharp words, harsh terminology, etc)? What to make of the situation where Timothy was told to GENTLY instruct those opponents who opposed him? Could it be possible that not all error or behavior is in the same category and that differing levels of error warrant differing levels of rebuke/action?

If teaching something false is what makes someone a false teacher, then what of the times when we were teaching something that we genuinely believed to be the truth of God’s Word and were sincerly doing so to please the Lord, but later came to realize that what we were teaching wasn’t really what a paticular text meant? Or that the application of what we were teaching was flawed?

Were we false teachers then when we had less understanding on an issue?

My understanding is that the FALSE TEACHERS IN CRETE were of a ENTIRELY DIFFERENT CATEGORY than those in TIMOTHY'S AREA and thus subject to a whole different set of rules because the degree of ERROR was not in the same level.

With the teachers in CRETE, they had a BAD REPUTATION EVEN AMONG UNSAVED FOLKS!!!!

Thus, when it comes to teaching, I'm not of the thought that all errors are on the same level nor all should be treated the same. Growing up in the Charismatic movement and having books by others in the Apostolic/Prophetic movement such as Rick Joyner, I appreciate many of the things he has noted.....but by no means am I going to jump/approve of WHATEVER he notes simply because "Rick says so." And neither am I going to demonize the man and assume everything he does is an issue. There was an article I wrote once on the issue that may help explain more of where I'm coming from, called The ART OF CHRISTIAN DIALOUGE: Whatever happened to it? (regarding heresy, false teachings, and understanding the Word of God IN CONTEXT) ....





When one of G-d's people is given what might even be termed a mantle or an anointing it seems that fallen angels move in on them in a way that is not done for somebody who hides their talents and thus is no threat to the enemy
Being attacked by the enemy is not always due to using a gift publically--and just because a gift is publicly used/damage done with it (especially when warnings were given and there was no heed given) doesn't mean that it's automatically the enemy. There are some who people assume have a gifting simply because they have a platform, but that again doesn't line up with the Bible. Even teachers may be decieved, even if they may be sincere...and to be clear, there are levels of false teaching that can be present.

As Brother John Piper said best:

Please, don't even put King Davids name in the same sentence as TB.

.......

]


Lulav, do you have any grandchildren yet that you are so angry at that you would not want their name used in the same sentence as your own?


King David has an astonishing number of grandchildren....the scholarship of Yair Davidiy is very difficult to dispute, in my opinion anyway!

Actually go to Moshiach.com and do a search for Ecuador and you will run into a powerful article asserting that descendants of Reuben and Levi went to South America during the time of King Solomon. I am not saying that they are descendants of King David...just that the lost tribes migrated much further than we would tend to imagine at first!

A couple of months ago I read some of my own writings online from five or more years ago. I shook my head at the ignorance that I had merely five years ago in virtually every subject that I got into.

Five years from today I hope that I will be able to see serious flaws in what I am writing at this moment!

Everyone is in a season of growth and development...evolution, if you will. And the things people fall on their sword for in previous times may be things they're against in the future. There's the reality of how the Lord works with all people at differing levels---and as the old saying goes, "God doesn't condemn us for what we are...but for what we refuse to become."


All are in need of grace, even as others realize the need to have discernment and know that just because all need grace doesn't mean all must approve of what another may or may not do. Be that with Rick Joyner, or with Todd Bently. Having friends/family who supported Bently on many points and also went to the revival, the issue hits home for me since I was one of the people that wasn't about trying to demonzie the man...nor was I one concerned with accepting any/everything done in the name of the Lord. I know personally I was cautious with the entire ordeal since I had friends/family that got involved with it....and I didn't agree with it even though I was for getting the facts/not blasting everything. For more, one can go here, here, here, here , here, here, here, here, etc). On my own blog, I tried to keep up with the issue often (As seen here, here, here and here ). Others have also spoken on it, as seen here. Ultimately, what Bently did was wrong and he needed to sit down.---despite anything where he did walk right (Just as others throughout history have, from Luther to Calvin to Owens to Edwards to many of the Church Fathers and various others the Lord worked through regardless of their grave mistakes)---and I wish the man had never chosen to go back into ministry, nor others commisssion him such as the NAR leaders did (including Rick Joyner) after his discussions on Emma the Angel/Other wild things. And the affair was simply a sympton of a LARGER issue that needed to be addressed.

God will deal individually with others as he wishes...
On a side note, I noticed elsewhere you brought up the following:


Would you mind explaining what you meant? FOr it seems like you're advocating that the Lord is a created being---and I wasn't certain if that is what you were about.

Funny thing, I went to search for posts I made way back on Todd and find that what I said back then as I was lead, I still stick by today.

Here's just one of the many threads I participated on regarding TB

For those who may be drawn in by TB and others like him, read this made by an anonymous poster in regard to the 'Lakeland Fire'

''

I knew this was not of G-d the minute I heard about it. Videos and live reports only confirmed what was in my Spirit. I fought tooth and nail with some in my congregation that went there and came back demon possessed. This is not of G-d, but allowed by him to test those who truly belong to him.

Adam is dead, we are told not to seek to talk to the spirits


Here, here...

Adam is dead in the sense that his soul has been separated from this physical world, and it does seem suspect that Adam would appear to someone like this...seems like God would use an Angel as the messenger, or Jesus, or just have the Holy Ghost tell him.

Ya better test the spirits on this one to see if this agrees with scripture.

How do you know it wasn't the devil bringing an attack to get you to back away from God trying to bring revival? Jesus spoke of the enemy trying to take the word that was sown in Mark 4:14-20.

Just because you experienced demonic attacks doesn't necessarily mean it's not of God. The devil always makes a play to keep people away from God moving and what better way to do that that to show you some demonic stuff to scare you off???

There are many, many other people who got delivered from demonic stuff they had before they ever went.


The people are going to decide when G-d shows his mercy? Please show me anywhere in the word that G-d has given this power over to people, other than Yeshua.


Well, God did give Israel a king... when God did not want them to have a king.

actually now you are debating, so word to the wise.

To answer your question though, you misunderstood what I said. I did not say I experienced demonic attacks, rather I heard from those who went there and could tell from that.

That wasn't my G-d moving down in Lakeland, but he did say he would sent those to test us.

That is because He is the King, but they wanted a visible one. That does not mean he gave power to him over his wrath.

Sorry, I guess anytime someone does not like a question that is asked, it is considered debating? I suppose I need to stay off your board since I'm obviously just ticking people off for not being friendly enough or whatever.

Anybody know which board is for "Christians" as in those that are born-again by being washed in the Blood of Jesus who walk after the Holy Ghost and not after the flesh?

Apparrently, I need to find the board for "Christians" so it will match my icon. Thanks.

James, I answered your question. I know you are new so don't know what has been happening here for the past month, but right now there are a lot of problems with people coming in to debate and some one (not me) will eventually report you, now more than ever. I just wanted to give you fair warning, not trying to chase you off at all.

Kind of a wholesale indictment of us, ain't it James?

We need a clubbing, bashing, flaming now and then don't we.

Lucky you came to do it.

We forgive.

Peace, hope you find it.
