Great article by Marsha West on the foolishness in the Latter-Reign movement and the latest movers and baby rattle shakers. When you read the article take special note of the prophecies from God that these leaders proclaimed over Todd Bentley in their Apostolic Commissioning Service. Todd Bentley was only a symptom of a bigger problem. The real problem is the same leaders who have been saying the same presumptions or lies that they have been saying for decades with the same results.
Don’t you think it is time for Charismatics to get rid of the whole pack of clowns that took over the circus? At least if your going to keep them in your Word-Faith Latter-Rain performance name them appropriately. Instead of calling them anointed prophets, healers and evangelists call them jesters. You can rebuild the movement by starting the “Jesters of the Kingdom Movement”. They will laugh the world into the kingdom. Come to think of it, you tried that already. Remember Rodney Howard Brown and his laughing hyena act? đ
When will “Christians” put these “anointed leaders” in the exalted Kingdom positions that they are qualified for? Keepers of the jester’s closet.
Marsha West — We Have Had Enough of False Prophets!
WE HAVE HAD ENOUGH OF FALSE PROPHETS!

The Holy Spirit is on the move. Heâs working in the minds and mouths of the false prophets. BAM! Theyâve fallen and they canât get up.
On June 23rd God moved a mountain — figuratively speaking — and the Charismatic church has been in chaos ever since. That day several of the New Apostolic Reformation leaders met in Lakeland, Florida for Todd Bentleyâs “apostolic alignment commissioning service.” What happened was mind-blowing. Iâm not talking about miraculous signs and wonders. There was no gold dust, no oil soaked hands, no angels with shimmering clothes and bright blue eyes hovering on stage. There was none of that — but there was a whole lot of shakinâ goinâ on!
Such notables as C. Peter Wagner, leader of the International Coalition of Apostles, his wife, Doris, ChĂ© Ahn, John Arnott, Bill Johnson, Rick Joyner and several others came to the 10,000-seat tent to support what Todd Bentley and Fresh Fire were doing and to commission him as an evangelist. There was only one problem. The leaders failed to put Bentley through a proper vetting process to find out if he was deserving of their high honor. Turns out he wasnât. Now they have egg on their collective faces and everyone knows it.
Some good has come out of the âLakeland Outpouring.â It brought to light the highly unorthodox beliefs of the NAR. Those who are a part of this movement should commit 2 Timothy to memory. Another good thing that came out of it is that the Charismatic church leaders who participated in Todd Bentleyâs coronation ceremony have been exposed as false prophets and fools.
AMEN! BAM BAM’S SILLY MINISTRY JUST OPENED A SORE AND PULLED THE SCAB OFF.
It’s now stinking and smelling up the entire church.

TRANSFORMATIONS REVIVAL ~ BY GEORGE OTIS AND PETER WAGNER ~SPIRITUAL TRANSFORMATION ~ SHIFTS ~ QUALITIVE CHANGE
âANGEL OF CHANGEâ

â. . There is a ministry after the five-fold called the ministry of perfection – the Melchisedek Priesthood . . . your children will be moving into the ministries of Perfection . . . coming into that Divine Nature of Jesus Christ . . . they themselves will be that generation thatâs raised up to put death itself underneath their feet . . . because the Lord Jesus is worthy to be lifted up by a church that has reached the full maturity of the GOD-MAN!â
[Bob Jones, (Kansas City Fellowship) transcribed from 1988 tape]
COSMIC CONSCIOUSNESS
The word transformation means a shift, or a qualitative change, a transfer from the original spiritual tenets to a switch over to a new religious belief system.

yes,praise God for the ‘revival’,and the exposure..it is always good to test your weapons and soldiers before the real fight begins..all that has been exposed is the consequence of each individual disciple of Jesus ignorance,even disobedience of the command by the father to listen to Him(Math17:5),and the absence of churches that obey the command to hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches(rev).All that has happened is to confirm the words of the Lord and hastened the day of THE False prophet’s arrival and the raising of the Beast..while many cringe at that thought, and fantasize about being raptured away, I praise God, because those two must appear before Jesus arrives. And when He arrives, the world will know He is who He said he is all along..now that’s justice for Jesus. So some of you picked it and some of you missed it and was decieved, no matter, repent and continue your practice..of what? Practice of His word until you yourself can do what he has been doing, and even greater things than that(John14:12). The lack of daily miracles..I mean the lame walking, the blind seeing , the deaf hearing and so on..real physical miracles..not just salvation etc..is what fuels the hunger of christians to throw good money at mammon just to be blessed. they say 300000 went to lakeland, at a conservative 2000$ per head, that’s60 million handed over to airlines, motels, hotels and restuarants…imaqgine if every body stayed home because revival happens every meeting at their churches already..that would be 60 million available for 300,000 third world pastors for one year, because most third world pastors only live on 50 to 200 dollars a month if they are lucky..that would have been a real revival. Next time mammon puts on one of this shows , stay home and send your airfares to a deserving pastor in india who faces death everyday for Christ, better still one in Iraq or Pakistan, where the real fight of faith is happening, and I am sure all the armchair warriors of the first worls church will be more blessed.
Now if you want to start your own personal revival..pick up your bible, listen only to Jesus, practice..not believe His miracles in secrect until water turns to good wine, and you can even walk on water..then ask the Lord to send you the poor, the lame, the cripples and the blind,and practice on them what Jesus said we can all do (John 14:12)…if they will not let you do that at your church..don’t leave, just do it in secrect as the Lord commanded, and let the Father rewaerd you, as those who oppose fall ill and the Lord use you to heal them that they amy repent..but stay humble.Does this work? Yep..first blind man seeing 5.3 2005 in Sydney Australia, with fullmedical and social security verification…not one of our members flew to lakeland..in fact no one was interested until the show collapsed, now the Lord has us searching out the injured..and sharing whatever he tells us to share. Listen to Jesus personally until your church can hear what the Spirit is saying to the church..and you will see revival at your own fellowship every week..with signs and wonders accompanying.parctice and get ready for the real fight..for the people who knows their God will resist him(Daniel).The Church at full power is our dream and vision, and Jesus deserves to be welcomed by such a church, as he puts His feet on the Mount of Olives.visit us at Holy Spirit’s workshop..google will take you there on the net, and ask the Holy Spirit to translate you there if you desire to be with us in the flesh. Dr,Ed.a footstool of the Lord Jesus Christ.
hereâs some truth from behind the scenes in Abbotsford. Jessa first of all was an intern in the fall 08 cycle. She never applied for it Todd invited her into the internship. Even after a board member severly opposed it. Later Todd invited her and another intern to live in his house during the internship, and after the internship as a live in nanny.
At the same time the Bellingham, Washington church was being established so fresh fire could get a legal foot hold in America. This is evident by the lack and the sheer refusal to work with the local churches. It was just for the papers not the church.
In January 2009 2 members of the board confronted Todd about Jessa, and that it was wrong and they couldnât stand by him about it. They where ârelievedâ of their position for doing so. This shouldnât be surprising as another member of FFM was faceed with the same threat, after he caught Todd with another woman in England (this is what the dark night of the soul was actually about), the FFM member was forced to either work for FFM outside of North America or be fired. Jessa is woman number 4 that Todd has cheated on Shonnah with.
Todd isnât 100% to blame just 80% the rest of the blame falls on those board members and pastors that refused to confront Todd on his infidelities. One in particular had the mind set that if Todd does it, itâs okay even if it isnât for others. Others refused to confront because they didnât want to loose their jobs (like many have over the years)
Even in Lakeland which I personally think was a two edged work of God, it was a blessing to the locals who have prayed for God to move. And the other edge was a judgement on Todd, in total over the top Todd style. During the highet of revival there was excessive drinking, slasher flicks, and other things I wont get into now with Todd and his inner circle (yes men). There was infighting with the leaders on stage, and the interns where just slaves with ministry badges. Or the fact that all the money collected for the orphans and for sudan never made it to them, it was instead used to pay for the buildings/land for the revival.
Even after Lakeland fell apart, and the news finally became public, Todd never returned home to Abbotsford. He remained in America (illegally) in California, then a breif stop in Reno for their quickey divorce rules. Then it was off to Rick Joyner and his marriage with Jessa
These words are not made up, this is a summary of many conversations I have had with former FFM employees, board members and former interns. I just canât stand by and see Todd get away with this for a fourth time. A man who has turned his back on his wife and children once again. yet will be received by the masses as THE man of God.
Thanks for that report. It does not sound like workings that you could possibly find in any movement of God to me. Those that want to believe in heretical Latter Rain Theology will continue and I do not doubt that their third wave anointed Todd Bentley will be back in the limelight soon. I am waiting for them to blame it all on a Satanic attack and then we will see the same hucksters embarrassing Christianity once again and his gullible followers just going back for more vomit like a dog.

Came across this oldie whilst browsing.
I have always been sickened by the basics of the charismatic movement.
The foundation of the movement is the flesh (desire/lust for a perceived superiority), from which has slowly grown the ugliness revealed in this article by Marsha West.
Those who in their ignorance of Scripture continue to embrace this movement will partake of her plagues. They seek stimulation of their senses rather than their spirit and become addicted to ecstatics rather than the things of God. Pray God they may come to see the difference.
The same principle can be applied to believers within that even greater harlot, the Roman Catholic church. I recommend Dave Hunt’s book ‘The Woman Rides the Beast’ to those who want to know the long history of this older version of the Whore.
Imagine what it will be like when these two join forces.
It is a great and a well documented book and I highly recommended it.
