John Paul Jackson’s “Perfect Storm” prophecy

John Paul Jackson released a word recently about a “perfect storm” of crises coming against our nation. Although not all our readers believe in the present-day ministry of prophecy, I have always had respect for Jackson’s ministry and wanted to pass along this new video in which explains what he believes God has shown him is about to happen. Even those who are committed cessationists sometimes acknowledge that there is a prophesied time of Holy Spirit activity at the end of the age. Fans of Paul Washer’s preaching ministry may recognize the same tone of urgency. There are interesting discussions on natural disasters, the economy, abortion, Islam, etc. So I ask you to view this with prayerful consideration.

A written synopsis of the teaching can be found here.

The aftermath of the Lakeland Revival

Columnist Lee Grady of Charisma isn’t afraid to slaughter the sacred cows of the charismatic movement.  This week he has revisited the controversy arising out of the Lakeland Revival, featuring the ministry of Todd Bentley.  What lessons should we be drawing from the unfortunate spectacle surrounding Bentley’s difficulties?

Lesson #1: Accountability. Accountability. Accountability.

I wish just saying the word over and over could impress the concept in our minds. Leaders must live according to biblical standards. Period. Bentley’s board admitted in their statement that after the Lakeland meetings went into full swing, Bentley developed troubling behavior patterns. That would have been the right time for someone with apostolic courage to demand that Bentley step down for a season until he got his spiritual life in order. If we really want New Testament miracles and New Testament impact, maybe we should embrace New Testament discipline.
