A little post about one man's tweet

Here is a quote/tweet from Bill Johnson, the ring leader at Bethel Church. The Church that has spawned Jesus Culture. This is a great example of what our kids are being taught by these false teachers!

"Faith does not come from thinking it comes from the heart"

It's subtle but there it is... a downgrading of theology and an upgrading of feelings.

Last time I checked God's word...

Romans 10:17
17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

So here in God's word we are told that hearing the Word of God is what God uses to grant us faith. How do we hear from God? We hear from God by his word exclusively. As we read and study God's word, by the power of the Spirit, we gain knowledge. And we don't have knowledge without engaging our minds.

Here is Bill's switcharoo. Bill wants you to stop listening to teaching and theology but he still wants you to listen to him and his false teaching. Bill has been systematically trying to get his followers to stop following those teachers that are teaching sound doctrine and theology from the bible alone. He wants to move you. He wants you to feel it. He doesn't want you to miss God with all that knowledge! My guess there is another tweet from Bill Johnson that states just that! Bill keeps on repeating this mantra of feelings over knowledge with hopes his followers listen and don't actually check his dribble with the Word of God. If they did, they would see that the bible is all about the cognitive process. Now don't get me wrong it is not just thinking. Our thinking effects or informs our feelings. But Bill want's to put feelings at the very front of the train so he can continue to peddle his nonsense and drive his Aston Martin around redding California.

Please watch out for the influence of this Church on your church and it's youth!

2 Timothy 4
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; 4 and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables. 5 But you be watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.
