Stephen Powell FaceBook video posted August 22, 2019 Todd Bentleys Bisexual Open Marriage Exposed From Within Charismania Stephen Powell’s full statment concerning Todd Bentley Dear Church, As some of you know who have followed my wife and I in ministry these last several years, we’ve had the honor and privilege of traveling with and Fresh Fire Ministries around the world, along with being involved with Rick Joyner & Morningstar church, Rick goes back fifteen years. He was the first author in the prophetic movement that I ever read when I first began to grow in this stream in 2004. His books to this day have had a profound influence on my life in shaping me into the minister and man I am today. My connection when I can remember getting his books and teaching cds for Christmas from my parents. Todd’s life and out of High School, to take five months of of work, lock myself in my room, and seek the Lord day and night. It was at that time that I had my first and that I first began to move in the prophetic and healing gifts. That was when I really fell in love with Jesus and built remained to this day and afected every part of my life. I’ll always be grateful to Rick & Todd for their positive influence in my life, despite some of the bad have happened and regrettable things I’ve become aware of more recently. I’ll always honor them for being pioneers in this intimacy with God, & the prophetic. I love and honor them and that’s why what I’m about to say much fasting, prayer, and hundreds of hours of counseling with wise counselors over the last several months, that I must do what I’m about people all over the world to hear my heart, receive my honest witness of the things I’ve seen and heard, and most breaks God’s heart when things like this come up. These are his children that we’re dealing with here. We want to pray for everyone involved in this, and his family; that God’s will would be done and the true freedom and deliverance He desires for all of us would be The information I’m about to present I believe to be true. I have done the best that I can to determine the validity of the allegations Todd, and have done the best I can to sort through hearsay and separate fact from fiction. This information is testimony, as well as hard copy evidence that I’ve gathered such as screen shots from cell phones. I wish to state right at the beginning of this letter that I do not want anything personally from this other than to see the will of the Todd and Jessa helped, and leaders who have failed them and the body held accountable. I’m not seeking revenge for ways that Todd has wronged me in the past. I’m just trying to do what’s right before the Lord with the information that came WHAT I KNOW OR BELIEVE TO KNOW ABOUT TODD BENTLEY AND THE ALLEGATIONS I believe that Todd Bentley had a genuine salvation experience as a young man. I believe he loves the Lord, is sincere in his desire to very powerful gift from God. But I’ve also come to believe that Todd Bentley is terribly deceived, and I don’t the consequences of his decisions, not just in his life, but the lives of countless men, women, and children in the body of Christ. I honestly deceived, and that He needs major help, which I really hope and pray He can find. As I’ve already stated, I love Todd and I’ll always thank God for how He used Todd in my life. Over the years I’ve tried to the best of my love to cover a multitude of sins as we’re commanded to do in the scriptures, to not judge another man’s a deeper work of sanctification and transformation in their lives. But to my disappointment and sadness I have not seen my prayers answers up to this Although I ultimately believe that our sins and our struggles do not define who we are in Christ, I believe that in Todd’s deception He has demonic identities and found ways to justify sin in the midst of a ministry culture overrun by damaging hyper-grace I believe to be an honest assessment of this sinful identity and the working of Todd’s sinful nature that has continued to operate in Todd’s life, the true has only been revealed to me within the last few months. I believe that Todd has a perverse sexual addiction that He picked up when He was a young man through his dark demonic childhood and through as a kid. Todd has an appetite for a variety of sexual sins including both homosexual and heterosexual activity. Down through advances toward (and in some cases engaged in sexual sin with) a number of diferent men and women outside under his leadership care in the church. I believe that Todd was preyed on sexually as a child, and I believe that that same demonic entity uses Todd to prey on others that have come their guard down because they felt all was safe being in the presence of an anointed man of God. The bible says desperately wicked (Jer.17:9). I believe that Todd’s own heart has deceived him and has kept him from understanding what is fully at work inside him. The I’ve gained in my investigation I’ve conducted this summer shows predatory behavior on Todd’s part, where in multiple cases people who were in a place of hardship and vulnerability, even financial hardship, being ofered money or some form I believe that both Todd and his wife Jessa are both complicit in this sexual perversion and have both participated in inviting other women, into their marriage bed. Todd and Jessa’s relationship and marriage began in sexual sin and it appears their lives over the years, despite the bond of marriage they share. I believe Todd is not fit for public ministry. On top of his sexual sins, He has proven to be a compulsive liar, He lacks financial and He is a substance abuser that has drawn many others into these sins with him over the years. I believe moral failures, and abuse of others that He cannot be trusted with the care of God’s people. HOW DID I GET INVOLVED IN THIS? I first met Todd in 2012 when He found me working as a janitor in a small church in my home state of Alaska. He recognized a ministry gift mentoring me in ministry and helped me get established as an itinerant. But for the last several years I’ve a fresh holiness message and anointing I began to move in in 2017. I had seen inappropriate behavior for years with Todd and Jessa, which I attempted leadership about to have it dealt with, but unfortunately I saw no real serious action taken on behalf of leadership to discipline In early June of this year I had a powerful prophetic dream in which I was standing in a heavenly courtroom during a case that was being was given to me to know that major change was coming to the church, and that righteous judgment and justice was specifically that leadership in the church were being given a clear and direct charge from the Lord to “start acting more like the Apostle Paul” in matters of judgment. At the time, I had been meditating on scriptures like (1 Cor.5:3,5) where Paul said: (1 Cor.5:3,5) “For I indeed, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have already judged (as though I were present) him who has so the destruction of the flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.” Scriptures like these which entail necessary apostolic righteous judgment in extreme cases of unrepented sin in the church, have in our day due to what can only be described to me as serious error due to an overreaction to religious Christ, we as leaders must be bold, courageous, and fearless in the face of sin and abominable practices, and we must be willing and obedient to the Lord calls us to handle these matters.

  • The Florida 'Outpouring' Revival
    PentecoStudies, vol. 8, no. 1, 2009, p. 37–57 Stephen Hunt, The Florida ‘Outpouring’ Revival ISSN 1871-777691 The Florida ‘Outpouring’ Revival A Melting Pot for Contemporary Pentecostal Prophecy and Eschatology? Stephen Hunt University of the West of England A decade after the neo-Pentecostal revivals of the 1990s a fresh wave of revival, characterised by miraculous healings and evangelism, became identified with what was colloquially referred to as the ‘Florida Outpouring’. Unlike the earlier so-called Toronto Blessing and the Brownsville revivals, that at Lakeland, Florida, was relatively short-lived. It became practically synonymous with the charismatic personality of the healing evangelist, Todd Bentley. This paper considers the Florida ‘Outpouring’ and Bentley’s prophetic role in forging revivalism within the framework of neo-Pentecostal eschatology and thus providing a sense of continuity with past and future revivals. Pentecostalism has proved to be a multi-faceted and rapidly evolving Christian movement leading to the speculation that it now consists of numerous ‘Pentecostalisms’ (Robeck 1999). Nevertheless, certain core characteristics remain discernible among the movement’s various ‘streams’. This includes, as a universal mark of both ‘classical’ Pentecostalism and the latter-day neo-Pentecostals (charismatics), the enduring hope of a global revival and the mass conversion of unbelievers before Christ’s Second Coming. This hope was encapsulated throughout the 1990s – a decade which saw a series of revivals breaking out in North America that proved to have global significance, each carrying a notable eschatological narrative. Perhaps the most noteworthy was the well-known revival in Toronto, Canada, which became associated with the so-called ‘Toronto Blessing’ with its controversial range of ecstatic and esoteric manifestations typified by ‘holy laughter’.

IT SHOWED TO THE WORLD THAT THE THIRD WAVE LEADERS WERE LIARS AND DECEIVERS AS WELL AS THIEVES ESPECIALLY THE STRADERS, BENTLEY'S AND ARNOTT!! LIARS AND PERJURERS IN REVIVAL http://www.scribd.com/doc/33780391/ Pastor Karl Strader stole Carpenter's Home Church and used the proceeds to finance Stephen's ignited Church! Todd Bentley lied and told everybody that God said He would give a 1,000 fold return for every donation using Benny Hinn’s thieving method! And John and Carol Arnott demonstrated that all the prayers and prophecies were false and used Slapp along with TACF and Steve Long to try and keep Walter Kambulow silent! Mind you Rodney Howard Brown the fleecer spoke against the revival as well as Benny Hinn because they didn’t like competition! And of course these fools and deceivers demonize their critics but Jesus Christ told us the truth: MT 7:15 "Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. 7:16 "You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? 7:17 "Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 7:18 "A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 7:19 "Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

  • Todd Bentley-Lakeland Revival Reviewed
    Reviewing the ministry of Tod Bentley and the Lakeland Revival Dr Andrew Corbett, May 30th 2008 It was C.S. Lewis who said – “You don't have a soul. You are a Soul. You have a body.” Human experience tends to confirm Lewis’s assessment. We are spiritual beings who are intuitively supernatural. Atheists object to this assessment though. They assert that there is nothing supernatural and that the uninformed are not being spiritual but rather “superstitious”. But when Christians who claim to be spiritual behave superstitiously and call it “revival”, we have to think that's an odd Gospel, or perhaps a “Todd Gospel”... The Todd Gospel is the gospel of Todd Bentley. While there are heresy-hunters who poo-poo anything Charismatic or Pentecostal, like Toronto or Pensacola, what is happening in Lakeland, Florida deserves a more rigorous treatment than that done by these cynics. While the ministry of Todd Bentley bears some similarities to previous Pentecostal/Charismatic “outpourings”, it is fundamentally different. Todd Bentley’s message is also radically different from other “revival” leaders. 1 © Dr Andrew Corbett Finding Truth Matters www.findingtruthmatters.org Reviewing the ministry of Tod Bentley and the Lakeland Revival I live Tasmania. This is about as far away from Lakeland, Florida, as anywhere in the world! Yet nearly everyday someone contacts me either to share their opinion (or to seek mine) about Todd Bentley’s ministry! Therefore, in reviewing his ministry I am susceptible to the criticism that I have not visited his Lakeland meetings, but due to the village-nature of the modern world (thanks to satellites and digital media) it is perhaps easier than ever before to be well informed about trends within Christendom happening anywhere in the world.

  • Pastoral Leadership Among African-Led Pentecostal Churches in the Context of British Society
    Pastoral leadership among African-led Pentecostal churches in the context of British society E Adu 22656243 Thesis submitted for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Pastoral Studies at the Potchefstroom Campus of the North- West University Promoter: Prof BR Talbot Co-Promoter: Prof GA Lotter May 2015 ABSTRACT The Pentecostal movement is experiencing phenomenal growth within global Christendom. Notwithstanding the exponential growth of Pentecostalism, there are contextual pastoral leadership challenges within the African-led Pentecostal tradition in British society. The first challenge observed is that the pastoral leadership practices of the African-led Pentecostal churches in British society are situated in their socio-cultural and theological orientations; this situation poses contextual challenges for pastors in carrying out their ecclesiastical duties. The second problem concerns leadership. There are often, for example, allegations about some pastors within this tradition mismanaging church finances, practising sexual immorality, taking money for prophetic utterances and abusing their power. These very troubling allegations have led to some Christians leaving this church tradition to join other churches, especially white- led British Pentecostal/charismatic churches, and some have stopped going to church altogether. Moreover, a review of literature suggests there has not been an attempt to undertake an in-depth study of the pastoral leadership praxis of the African-led Pentecostal church community in British society. Thus, there is a gap to be filled in Pentecostal pastoral leadership scholarship. The present research investigates these contextual challenges and formulates markers for exemplary pastoral leadership among African-led Pentecostal churches in British society. To address these problems, the four tasks of Richard Osmer’s practical theological interpretation were used.

  • Morningstar Ministries Profile
    MorningStar Ministries By Keith Gibson Founder: Rick & Julie Joyner Founding Date: 1985 Organizational Structure: Rick Joyner is the primary leader of this ministry. He is the Founder and Executive Director or MorningStar Ministries and Heritage International Ministries, the Senior Pastor of MorningStar Fellowship Church and the Director of Morningstar University. He has also authored more than 40 books. Unique Activities: Apostolic and Prophetic councils and roundtables. ZAO Life Project to provide wells and clean drinking water to third world areas. The Nehemiah Project which is aimed at restoring much of what was formerly known as Heritage USA. Rick Joyner also has continued participation in the Knights of Malta which has been viewed as controversial by many. He has also been involved in some high profile ministry restorations, including most recently that of Todd Bentley. Unique slogans: The tree of knowledge, Jezebel spirit, religious spirit HISTORY As with many ministries, the history of MorningStar Publications and Ministries is inextricably connected to the history of its founder Rick Joyner. MorningStar does not publish detailed accounts of its history and therefore a complete picture is difficult to piece together based on the available information. Rick Joyner states that he was converted to Jesus Christ in 1971.1 He indicates that he immediately began to have prophetic experiences in which he could foresee events and occasionally look at people and know details about them such as spiritual problems or callings on their lives.2 He was “thrust into the ministry” very quickly after being a believer for only two years and began to pastor a church.3 Joyner indicates that he failed badly in this attempt and left the pastoral ministry in 1980.
