Reporting on the Rise of ‘Reckless Christianity’
Responding biblically to the worldwide prophets and apostles movement taking over churches (the New Apostolic Reformation)
Apostle Brian Simmons' Underhanded Ways
The underhanded tactics used by leaders in the New Apostolic Reformation movement--such as those used this week by apostle Brian Simmons--never cease to amaze me.
So, Brian Simmons: Are You An Apostle Or Not?
Apostle Brian Simmons actually responded to a review I wrote of his new translation of the Bible, the Passion Translation. Yet, as you will see, his response shows poor reasoning, shoddy scholarship, and even apparent deception.
Collateral Damage of the New Apostles
I've been asked, "Why are you so concerned about the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) movement? Even if people's beliefs are a little off, what's the harm?"I'm concerned because their NAR beliefs are not just shipwrecking their own faith. They are hurting other people.
The Assemblies of God and the NAR
I'm often asked the question, "Are Assemblies of God churches part of the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) movement?" It's an important question because the Assemblies of God USA and Assemblies of God organizations around the world make up the world's largest Pentecostal denomination--representing 65 million people.
A Wrong Way to Test a Prophecy -- 'The Inner Witness Test'
Scripture is clear: we need to test prophecy. Because this teaching is inescapable, even NAR leaders would agree that prophetic words should be put to the test before being embraced wholeheartedly. But as it turns out, not all tests are created equal.
