NAR: Carolina Panthers and Charismatic Chaos

February 3, 2016 by Tony Miano 1 Comment

Today, Dr. James White of Alpha and Omega Ministries, posted a link to a video on his Twitter feed, with this comment: “You’ve got to be kidding . . . talk about absurd. The video, which you can watch for yourself below, is a video of Rick Joyner declaring that if the Carolina Panthers win the Super Bowl, the event will unleash a “third Great Awakening.”

Rick Joyner is a leader in the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) and good friend of fellow “super apostle,” Bethel Redding cult leader, Bill Johnson.

Rick Joyner was one of the false prophets who commissioned charlatan Todd Bentley as an apostle.

Rick Joyner would soon find himself working to “restore” Todd Bentley to ministry after it became public that Bentley was a drunkard and an adulterer. He left his wife to marry his mistress. Joyner would restore Bentley, all right–restore him to go prey upon the people of the Middle East.

Just five months ago, Rick Joyner’s ministry’s YouTube page posted a clip of Bentley boasting of raising three people from the dead in Pakistan. Bentley is selling the same snake oil in the Middle East he sold in Lakeland, Florida, and throughout the United States.

With the above information provided to give some context to what you’re about to watch, here is the latest NAR offering of what is aptly described as “charismatic chaos.”

    Tony,
    I have only recently come across a couple of your articles (along with that a few videos as well), but if you had some time I would like to get your opinion on some questions I have.
    First, I believe a little context is needed. I was born and raised Nazarene. My father was even a Nazarene pastor for a time prior to my birth. Long story short, I grew up in it, got later in high school and through college and I lived like the devil. I gave my life back to the Father at 22 years old, I will be 30 in June. I have been a bi-vocational youth pastor and a college pastor for the past 5 years.
    -Meat-
    I have heard the audible voice of God, 2 times in my life.
    I have seen miracles, praying for a mans knees ( old school ACL surgery damaged knees) stand up and start jumping. Months later still healed doing Cross Fit
    Men at my job sites enter into relationship with Jesus.
    I love Jesus!
    Please don’t write me off here. I also have grown deeply by the teaching from Bill Johnson.
    I do listen to Bill but I also listen to TD Jakes, Dan Mohler, Tony Evans, Todd White, Dan Bohi, and I love my senior pastor Alan Clark.

    I have never “fallen out in the Spirit”or spoken in tongues.
    I see scriptural backing for Bill adversely I see scriptural backing for you and where your heart and ministry is.
    -My Question-
    Where will wisdom and discernment guide us if we do not allow a brother to sharpen us?
    Honestly, I have a lot of questions and I hope this did not offend you in any way. If so that was not my intention. I look forward to being able to gain your vantage point as your time allows.
    -Side Note-
    You will never hurt my feelings in any response. You are free to speak boldly.
