두란노아버지학교_ Interesting Information About "Promise Keepers"
두란노아버지학교_ Interesting Information About "Promise Keepers" Interesting Information About "Promise Keepers" Compiled by John Beardsley Dated 4/19/96 – Updated 9/20/97 Lots of scriptures, questions and quotes regarding Promise Keepers NEW: From the PK News Oct 97 For "Stand In the Gap" (SITG) in Washington, D.C.! 'Blow the trumpet,' Schlafer said. "In the Old Testament, the shofar (a ram's-horn trumpet) was blown prior to battles to signify the army of God. Our host people, the Native Americans, blew flute, and other people groups used trumpets. So, we will use numerous instruments to invoke the Spirit of God to consecrate the event." he said, "As we blow the horns to start the program, we will be announcing the arrival of royalty, the Lord of Lords and King of Kings." PROMISE KEEPERS IS CALLING FOR JESUS TO COME ON OCTOBER 4TH OR ARE THEY "INVOKING" A SPIRIT OF DELUSION???!!! -Read Bottom of Article Bill McCartney Promise Keepers Founder has said, "Promise Keepers doesn't care if you're a Baptist. Are you born in the Spirit of God? Promise Keepers doesn't care if you're a Pentecostal. Are you born in the Spirit? Now hear this! Promise Keepers doesn't care if you're a Roman Catholic. Are you born into the Spirit of God?" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- McCartney has said in a radio interview where Promise Keepers is going from a "Spiritual dimension"-- "I honesty believe that Promise Keepers is a vehicle that God is going to use to come alongside the church to rebuild our cities, to feed the poor, to come alongside the oppressed, to dissolve the gangs, to end welfare in this nation and to see a lot of healing in our land." When asked "Is that all" McCartney continued, "I also believe that we can, what the Christian men of this nation could pay off the national debt." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- McCartney when asked, "how does reality compare with that vision," He responded, "Well obviously the Lord is gone way above and beyond what I might have imagined, I did have a grand vision, and I do, the Lord has given me the kind of thought life and prayer life where I do think God sized thoughts, in other words the kinds of things only God can do, and, so I believe Promise Keepers, Haggai 2:7 it talks about shaking the nations, I believe Promise Keepers is going to shake the nations." Is the Promise Keeper Agenda the Bible’s? Does McCartney’s belief about Haggai 2:7 in the context of the Bible? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- McCartney has stated he starts everyday asking, "Lord what is your strategy to end racism, what is your direction for Promise Keepers and Lord what would you have me say when I get an opportunity to speak?" Is this how Christians should start everyday? Read on, is this what God would have a Christian speak? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- At the Dallas 1995 conference McCartney makes several interesting statements: McCartney speak in reference to one of the first conferences - "I felt the spirit of God say to me ‘look at the audience and tell me what you see’ Lord I see 4200 guys filled with your spirit I said its wonderful. He said, ‘what else do you see?’ I said well Lord almost every guy here is a white guy." Then McCartney says, "But the Lord told me, he said ‘you get up there and you tell those guys if you can fill that stadium, but if its not a fair representation of the body of Christ of my men, I’m not coming.’" -Does this align with scripture? II Peter 2 1:19-2:3 for starters. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- At the Dallas 1995 conference McCartney makes several MORE interesting statements: (part of same message above) McCartney, "Can we truly see genuine unity? What would move God to do this? What can I do? How can we feed the poor? Who will be a father to the fatherless? What about the widow? Lord why have you tarried so long? Lord why have we waited 400 years in this nation? "When will the nations gather in Jesus’ name?" (McCartney gives a long explanation leading to answer saying how some will ,"be surprised by the answer," "some already know") "The answer to those questions is prayer, now Matthew 18:18 Jesus says I tell you the truth whatever you bind on Earth will be bound in Heaven and whatever you loose on Earth will be loosed in Heaven. Are you guys in touch with the fact that Heaven waits on Earth? How many of you know that almighty God’s will is perfect however, every single one of us has a free will, every single one of us can make our own choices, do you understand what that does to God? He has to wait on us, if He didn’t wait on us then he would be mandating His will and we would not have a free will. Do you understand that prayer is when we ask God to do what He wills to do, God is not going to change His mind. There are things that God has wanted to do for a long, long time, but let me read on, in the next two verses of the 18th Chapter of Matthew, it says ‘again I tell you if two of you on Earth agree about anything you ask for it will be done by my Father in Heaven. For where two or three come together in my name there I am with them.’ That’s the verse we’ve misunderstood, we think every time we ask almighty God to come together when we call out the name of Jesus, that He comes, but that not what that means. He says ‘I will come if you gather in harmony, I will come if the condition of your heart is such that you stand before me and you are barren, you’re empty, and you’re desperate for the heart of almighty God, and there’s no judgment in your heart, that there’s no condemnation in your heart, that you’ve given up all your opinions, that you’ve given up all your suspicions, that’s when almighty God will come, that’s when Jesus will come. You see Jesus will come when we are in harmony, and guess what the church has never stood in harmony, the church has never stood together and asked almighty God to do these things. We refuse to give up what’s in our heart. We have people who have betrayed us, they’ve disappointed us, we have people who have lied to us and crossed us and we can’t let go of that, and we don’t let go of that and so guess what, we can’t stand before a holy righteous God and ask Him to come into our presence. You know why? Because He said, ‘a broken and contrite heart you will not despise,’ its a broken heart that God wants." Its a broken heart that stands before God and it says ‘Lord I want your will, I forfeit my will, I forfeit all of my attitudes, I forfeit all of my agendas, and I ask you Lord to come into our presence right here and bring the Spirit of the living God.’ See if the Church of Jesus Christ ever stood together in harmony and asked almighty God to do that He would do that. He would bring an end to racism. Don’t you know that its God’s heart, it tears God’s heart open when we treat each other like we do. That’s not what he’s wanted, he’s never wanted that, but the church has always stood divided. The church has always stood in separation. How many of you know what a spirit of prayer is? A spirit of prayer is when you ask almighty God to do what he wills to do. You see He offers to us intimacy he says, Jesus Christ says this to us, He said, ‘In to me see, my heart,’ anybody who wants the heart of God can have it." (Directly from the PK taped message "Forgive, Give and Live") Is this dissertation from McCartney a true representation of God’s will according to the Bible??? Are the following verses about Church unity and Racism? Matthew 18:15 - 22 KJV 15. Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother. 16 But if he will not hear [thee, then] take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established. 17 And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell [it] unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican. 18 Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. 19 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven. 20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. 21. Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times? 22 Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- McCartney has said this to Pastors, "We cannot divide the word of truth. We need you to teach us." -Compare his words to this scripture, "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." 2 Timothy 2:15 Is McCartney correct? This is more evidence of McCartney’s Roman Catholic beliefs! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- McCartney, from the introduction of the book "What Makes A Man", "God’s eyes are moving to and fro for men with a full passion for the gospel message. The Lord is calling men from across our nation to lead a new uprising of men filled with God’s Spirit. Now is the time for that uprising, and this book contains many of the voices who are calling men to this movement." -At least nine psychologists and at least one psychiatrist helped write this book! The first chapter is by psychologists Gary Smalley and John Trent. Second chapter is by Evangelist Leighton Ford, (related to Billy Graham) who writes "Our Four Basic Needs As Human Beings," "A psychiatrist friend tells me we have four basic needs as human beings." Is this "The Lord is calling men from across our nation to lead a new uprising of men filled with God’s Spirit" as McCartney suggests? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Promise Keepers representatives are scheduled to speak at the Franciscan University of Steubenville, Ohio, May 31 - June 2, 1996 at a Christian Men's Conference. (And this did take place) -This institution stands unequivocally for traditional Catholic doctrine and practice. Does Catholic doctrine align in Biblical unity? More proof of PK’s ecumenical intentions! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Still endorsed but no longer promoted by Promise Keepers as of 1996, the book "The Masculine Journey" Dr. Robert Hicks' discussion of man's (emotionally) wounded stage (enosh), he confuses sins and wounds: "In order for men to discover what manhood is all about, they must descend into the deep places of their own souls and find their accumulated grief. … I am convinced many men in our society today are lashing out at women, at society, at bosses, even at God—all because they do not understand the wounding experience. … The story of Jacob … illustrates a young man having been severely wounded by a dysfunctional family system" (pp. 115-117). In addition, Hicks teaches that David was a "manic-depressive" whose Psalms were the "musings" of a disordered mind (p. 114) In the Masculine Journey’s accompanying workbook Study Guide, Section Three, "Exploring the Issues with Other Men" (p. 33), the following statement is made: "Our culture has presented many initiation rites, or passages to manhood, that are associated with the [private part of the male anatomy]. Which ones have you experienced? Do you have a story to share with other men about one such event?" He then lists such supposedly debilitating [about the private part of the male anatomy] experiences as potty training and bed-wetting, hair development, pornography, first date, wedding night, and conceiving one's first child. -Do Christians need to talk about these things? (Eph. 5:4; Col. 3:1-3, 8; Phil. 4:8,9). Is the use of Freudian psychology O.K. for the Christian? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Promise Keeper Speaker Wellington Boone, "I know that Promise Keepers has been growing at a phenomenal rate," he said, during a break in Washington, D.C. "But, you see, I think the big explosion is still around the corner. I believe we will see real revival across this land. But that will only happen after we've faced the issue of racism and meet it head on." -Is this what God says in the Bible? Or is it a social agenda? Again, more nonsense about "racial reconciliation" the PK way, NOT God's way! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- James Ryle, Pastor of one of the Vineyard churches which supports the "Toronto Experience," along with other "signs and wonders," Pastor to PK Founder Bill McCartney, Ryle himself recently participated in a service making animal noises from the pulpit (this is one of the Toronto manifestations) "There are waves of tear-wiping laughter. Ryle makes sound effects, including some animal noises. He snaps his fingers, bangs the podium, paces and tells how God will appear here in suit of fire, oil, water. "You will feel! And the glory of the Lord will put you down!" (From the Washington Post 11/18/95) -Can Ryle be trusted to bring a Biblical message? Can PKers honestly say that the Vineyard/Signs & Wonders movement is not influencing them?! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Promise Keepers Official magazine "New Man" is published by Stephen Strang, and has an article in the February 1996 magazine which attacks the King James Version of the Bible! The writer even implies that the Bible is on the same level as the writings of men and be studied as other "…books, letters and poems…" The writer equates the Bible with "…reading a Tom Clancy novel…" Bible verses such as Proverbs 3:5-6 are changed, instead of "he shall direct thy paths" the writer says, "Concerning this passage… "Direct thy paths’ is not accurate. Looking at the original manuscripts, the translation is "He will make your paths smooth." " -There is more in this article these are just a couple of notable highlights! Is God’s word comparable to a novel written by men?? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Randy Phillips Promise Keeper President (also a Vineyard member) said in an interview when asked about abhorrent doctrines responded, " I think you're dealing with a whole area that is not our expertise or calling." The scripture says: "All scripture [is] given by inspiration of God, and [is] profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works." 2 Timothy 3:16-17 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Promise Keepers teaches there is no difference the Communion, the Eucharist, the Mass, or the Lord's Supper!! Promise Keeper Speaker Dr. Jack Hayford writes about "Redeeming Worship" on page 19, in the book "The Seven Promises of a Promise Keeper : "Redeeming worship centers on the Lord's Table. Whether your tradition celebrates it as Communion, Eucharist, the Mass, or the Lord's Supper, we are all called to this centerpiece of Christian worship." -Is the Catholic Mass and Eucharist the same as the Lord’s Supper? NO!!! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jack Hayford at the recent Promise Keeper Pastor’s conference was attempting to influence everyone to "dance in the Lord," He said he learned the dance in Africa and later the Lord spoke to him directly, "May I have this dance?" Then he began doing an African witch-doctor dance around the podium before about 40,000 spectators. (O Timothy Newsletter) -Compare this to Jeremiah 10:2 "Thus saith the Lord, learn not the way of the heathen…" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "It has been ordained by God that a unified Body alone is equipped toinherit the lost, and provide support necessary to bring babes in Christ tomaturity" (E. Glenn Wagner, The Awesome Power of Shared Beliefs, p. vii) How does Promise Keepers "define" this "unified body?" Read McCartney’s earlier statements above. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Promise Keepers also has no problem involving Mormons in its meetings. While Mormon headquarters has no official position on Promise Keepers, many Mormon men have and continue to participate in Promise Keepers. Local Mormon leaders generally agree with Promise Keepers seven promises and have privately praised the movement and commented on how attendance "has been a life changing experience for some of the Mormon men." Promise Keepers has given at least one presentation to a Reorganized Mormon church that was "very high" on the Promise Keepers and "would no doubt be going with it" since they had "no problem with it at all. ... It's a wonderful program. The men at my church will be participating." (Reported in the May/June 1995, PsychoHeresy Awareness Letter, "Promise Keepers, Catholics, and Mormons ... Together," pp. 1,3.) What Churches are we sending these men back too!? "The "gospel" message of the Promise Keepers is not the true Gospel message. The true Gospel message will, at times, offend and condemn. Furthermore, true Biblical preaching and teaching will speak of heresies and aberrant teachings and will even name names, as the apostle Paul did. Imagine, if you will, the apostle Paul having a "rally" and inviting the Scribes, Pharisees, Essenes, Judaizers, and others. Then imagine Paul committing himself to not violating their doctrines, not proselytizing them, and then sending the men back to their "churches." Underneath the hoop, holler and hype of the Promise Keepers movement is an ecumenicalism that smacks of the last days spoken of in Scripture, rather than what some have called the "greatest move of God since the day of Pentecost." This "move of God" is arguably the largest (in terms of numbers) and broadest (in terms of denominations) ecumenicalism that the world has ever seen (Adapted and/or excerpted from "Promise Keepers' 3 Unwritten Promises," PsychoHeresy Awareness Letter, Sept-Oct 1995, pp. 1-2). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Ambassador's Instructional booklet warns the Ambassador that he no longer represents himself and his "personal stands on a doctrinal issue," but instead represents Promise Keepers "unique mission" and is "participating in the task of uniting men." The booklet gives "Some of the [doctrinal] issues that should not be addressed: Eternal security; The gifts of the Spirit; Baptism; Pre-tribulation or post-tribulation; Sacraments or ordinances" (p. 10). The Ambassador is told that the PK's Purpose Statement and Statement of Faith had been "carefully worded" in order to avoid doctrinal conflict. Of course, how else could it be accepted by Mormons and Catholics alike (see later in this report)? (Reported in the 11/95, The Berean Call.) -Again proof of PK's liberal ecumenism! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "At its March meeting, Promise Keepers' board of directors welcomed Mike Timmis as a new member. A Detroit-area lawyer and businessman, Timmis is a longtime leader in the Catholic charismatic renewal." "At several rallies this year, Promise Keepers has spotlighted Catholic evangelist Jim Berlucchi as a speaker." In June, Promise Keepers hosted a 'Catholic summit' at its headquarters in Denver, sounding out Catholic volunteers and leaders from around the country." (Quotes from: Mike Aquilina, Our Sunday Visitor, July 20, 1997, pp. 10,11) –A Catholic Publication! "Promise Keepers Founder Bill McCartney told our Sunday Visitor recently that full catholic participation was his intention from the start. 'Back in 1992, at our first stadium event, we very clearly stated from the podium that we eagerly welcomed the participation of Roman Catholics, and we've had scores of Roman Catholics attend and go back to their churches excited.' ..." Our Sunday Visitor, July 20, 1997, pp. 10,11) 'Faith alone' is a key doctrine of the Protestant Reformation. Though the phrase appears nowhere in Scripture, it was inserted by Martin Luther into his German translation of the Bible. Concerned about this development at Promise Keepers, Sengenberger had several Catholic theologians review the statement and present their objections to Wagner last summer." ..." Our Sunday Visitor, July 20, 1997, pp. 10,11) "Early this year, Promise Keepers revised their Statement Of Faith in a way that passed theological muster with those Catholics: 'Only through faith, trusting in Christ alone for salvation, which was made possible by His death and resurrection, can that alienation be removed.' Paul Edwards, Promise Keepers' vice president for advancement, explained that the statement of faith is a 'dynamic' document, and that Promise Keepers is open to change. "When Promise Keepers first published its brief statement of faith, it did not include the phrase "through faith alone." It was added because of the outcry of those who protested that the absence of this phrase leaves room for false gospels which mix grace and works, faith and sacraments. You see, false gospelers do not deny that salvation is by faith and by grace. What they deny is that it is by grace ALONE through faith ALONE without works and sacraments of any sort. Now we see that Promise Keepers has again modified its statement to remove "through faith alone" to please the Catholic leaders with whom they are fellowshipping. (Quotes and comments on the Sunday Vistor adapted from article July 18, 1997 by David W. Cloud, Fundamental Baptist News Service) "Although Promise Keepers welcomes Roman Catholics to participate in our ministry, this should not be perceived as an endorsement of the Roman Catholic Church. Our focus is on what we have in common biblically and where a man's heart is. We believe it is justification by faith – and faith alone -that determines a man's standing and status as a believer." (An Official Response to my query dates 12/11/95 from Ashley Nearn Promise Keeper Correspondence Services) So the truth is Promise Keepers lied! Men of integrity? Indeed! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- More Interesting Information on Promise Keeper Speakers - More like a who’s who in ecumenical and unbiblical teaching today! When a question was asked at a PK press conference regarding "laughing revivals" where those involved "bark like dogs" and "bray like donkeys" Dr. Henry Blackaby (SBC) [Author of the neo-orthodox book "Experiencing God"], speaking on behalf of PK said, "We don't try to evaluate that, and neither do we take a position regarding women serving as pastors." Dr. Joseph Stowell [President, Moody Bible Institute] immediately declared, "Our God does not ever wear an angry face. He deals with compassion." [We don't know what Bible Dr. Stowell uses, but it is not the same one we use! Does he really think God did not have an angry face when He told Moses He was going to destroy Israel for its sin (Exodus 32:9,10), or that Jesus Christ did not have an angry face when He drove the money changers out of the temple? The Bible says the Lord Jesus Christ "looked round about on them with anger, being grieved for the hardness of their hearts" (Mark 3:5) (Ralph Colas report, 4/1/96, Christian News, pp. 1, 9-10; 1st bracketed comment from this author and second bracketed comment from O Timothy editor, David Cloud). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bill McCartney (1991-1997) Founder and board member of Promise Keepers, and head football coach at the University of Colorado until his recent resignation (1/3/95). A former Roman Catholic, McCartney's theology is now charismatic as evidenced by his membership in a local church affiliated with the Vineyard Christian Fellowship a denomination founded by hyper-charismatic, signs & wonders "healer" John Wimber. Promise Keepers also has McCartney's Vineyard pastor, James Ryle, on its Board of Directors, and Vineyard member Randy Phillips is its president. [In his book, From Ashes to GIory, McCartney speaks glowingly of his Roman Catholic background, and asserts that he still believes much as a Roman Catholic. He states that he did not leave Roman Catholicism as much as he joined James Ryle's Vineyard Fellowship because it was "meeting his needs at the time."] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gary Smalley (1991-1997) & John Trent (1992-1993; 1995-1996) author, founder and President of Today's Family, Gary Smalley is the "Church's" leading proponent of Right-Brain/Left-Brain pseudoscience. The popularization of right-brain/left-brain has been largely due to the book The Language of Love, co-authored by Smalley and fellow psychologist, John Trent. (Both also have theological degrees, but apparently believe that the Bible alone is insufficient to handle people's problems of living.) As for John Trent, former Vice President of Today's Family, and now President of Encouraging Words, he talks about personality traits, not like those of the Bible, but astrology. He compares our behaviors to animals and says this is why we act the way we do he has you compare your actions to a lion, a golden retriever, a beaver, or an otter. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chuck Swindoll (1994-1995) Swindoll is the former senior pastor of First Evangelical Free Church of Fullerton, California (for 24 years); he resigned in mid-1994 to become president of neo-evangelical Dallas Theological Seminary. Swindoll's "resume’ of heresy" is seemingly endless he recommends the books of many of the worst psychologizers, New Agers, and occultists imaginable, all under the banner of "all truth is God's truth." [At the 7/94 PK Boulder, Colorado conference, Swindoll, clad in faded denim, roared onto the stage astride a motorcycle to the band playing "Born to Be Wild," and then delivered a sermon on avoiding temptation.] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Luis Palau (1992; 1995-1997) internationally known Argentinian evangelist Luis Palau ("the Billy Graham of South America") is a Catholic sympathizer whose ecumenical message is heavily diluted with pop psychology and Arminian easy-believism. He regularly cooperates with apostate Methodism and the radical fringe of Charismaticism (e.g., Oral Roberts). – Coming to Rapid City soon! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- E.V. Hill (1992-1997) hyper-charismatic pastor of the Mount Zion Missionary Baptist Church in the Watts section of Los Angeles (member in the apostate National Council of Churches) and V.P. of the National Baptist Convention. Hill praises Jesse Jackson (apostate, radical social activist) and has been linked with liberal groups such as the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (which endorsed the early-1993 Gay Rights march on Washington, D.C.!). Hill is a frequent guest speaker on various charismatic platforms (e.g., at Kenneth Hagin's Rhema Center). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jack Hayford (1991-1997) author and hyper-charismatic pastor of The Church on the Way in Van Nuys, California; he claims to have seen a vision of Jesus seated in heaven and to have heard Him speak! (At the 5/94 Promise Keepers regional conference in Anaheim, California, Hayford gave three reasons why God required circumcision in the Old Testament: "[1] God wants to touch your very identity as a man; [2] He wants to reach out and touch your secret and private parts. This enables Him to better perform surgery on the heart; [3] God wants to touch man's creative parts.") He is the senior editorial advisor for Ministries Today, a pro-charismatic magazine published by Strang Communications, is a Promise Keepers board member, believes that the Catholic mass is a valid form of Christian worship see above and believes that being committed to doctrinal distinctives at the expense of unity is an example of "small-minded sectarianism" (12/95, Charisma, p. 68). Hayford is also pastor to Jan and Paul Crouch of the heretical and blasphemous Trinity Broadcasting Network! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gary Oliver (1991-1993; 1995-1996) author of Real Men Have Feelings Too, psychologist, Clinical Director of Southwest Counseling Associates, and Promise Keepers board member. Among the many Freudian and miscellaneous humanistic psychological models used by Oliver, his favorite appears to be one based upon the teachings of "Christian" psychologist Dr. Larry Crabb. Concerning PK and Catholicism, Oliver says, "Since day one, we've really encouraged Catholic participation, not because they are Catholics, but because anyone who loves the Lord is welcome." Oliver’s materials for the PK related "Men of Integrity" series booklets are VERY much like counterpart Robert Hicks listed below even quoting material which is part of the secualar "male bonding" movement by Robert Bly! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Larry Crabb (1992; 1996) author, clinical psychologist, and founder and Director of the Institute of Biblical Counseling at Colorado Christian University in Morrison, Colorado. Crabb's model of counseling is primarily a psychological system of unconscious needs that supposedly motivate all behavior. This system has been derived from Freudian (the "unconscious") and humanistic (a hierarchy of needs) psychology, with great emphasis on so-called emotional needs. . Additionally, Crabb focuses on the "needs" of the self which are directly from the humanistic philosophies of Abraham Maslow and the hierarchy of needs. Crabb redefines repentance of sin to the rooting out of sins others have committed against you. Crabb employs counsel from the perspective of the world and not the Bible. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Robert Hicks (1993) Professor of Pastoral Theology at the Seminary of the East (Dresher, PA), pastor, psychotherapist, president of the psychologically-oriented Life Counseling Services, and author of the Promise Keepers endorsed book The Masculine Journey (foreword by John Trent). (See earlier in this report for details.) Hicks is the author of other psychobabble books: Uneasy Manhood, Returning Home, Failure to Scream, and Man of All Passions. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Howard Hendricks (1993; 1995; 1997) psychologically-oriented Distinguished Professor and Chairman of the Center for Christian Leadership at Dallas Theological Seminary, spends considerable time conducting so-called "Christian" marriage enrichment seminars, endorsed Robert Hicks' book The Masculine Journey as "an eye opening key to understanding the Bible's teaching on what it means to be a man.") He is also a Promise Keepers board member. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Joseph Stowell (1994-1997) Ecumenical psychologizer and president of the Moody Bible Institute. Stowell has previous strong ties to the General Association of Regular Baptist Churches (GARBC). Read his comments above. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jim Smoke (1993) Executive Director of the Center for Divorce Recovery and author of Ten Ways You Can Grow Through Divorce. Smoke is a self-love advocate whose terminology sounds much like that of secular psychologist Carl Rogers! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bill Hybels (1994-1996) Author, church-growth guru, and the ecumenical, psychologically-oriented pastor of the 12,000-member Willow Creek Community Church in Barrington, Illinois. Too much material to demonstrate here how dangerous this man’s "church" is to Biblical teachings! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- James Dobson (1993) pop psychologist, author, and founder and Director of Focus on the Family Ministries. According to Dobson, "low self-esteem" is the root cause of most societal ills. Dobson has heavily promoted Promise Keepers on his nationwide radio program, and Focus on the Family Publishing is one of Promise Keepers' publishers and produces most of its tapes. In PK's early years, Promise Keepers was keep afloat by a gift from Focus on the Family. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Greg Laurie (1994-1997) author, crusade evangelist, and charismatic pastor of the 12,000-plus membership Harvest Christian Fellowship in Riverside, California; Calvary Chapel's Chuck Smith is mentor for this ecumenical psychologizer. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bill Bright (1992; 1995-1996) ecumenical/Catholic promoter and founder and Director of Campus Crusade for Christ. Bright was a signator to the 3/94 ecumenical accord "Evangelicals & Catholics Together: The Christian Mission in the Third Millennium," and won the $1 million 1996 Templeton Prize for Progress in Religion. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- James Ryle, Boulder Valley Vineyard Christian Fellowship pastor, Promise Keepers board member, and pastor to Founder Bill McCartney. Read about him above. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chuck Colson co-author of the ecumenical accord "Evangelicals and Catholics Together" and another recipient of onemillion dollars from the Progress in Religion Award. At the 9/96 rally in NYC, Colson, sounding like "Mother" Teresa, said, "If you trust in God it doesn't matter what religion or race you are, we all belong to each other." - How can this be considered a Biblical statement?! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- John Wesley-White, evangelist for the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Juan Carlos Ortiz, the pastor of Hispanic Ministries at apostate Robert Schuller's Crystal Cathedral -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Billy Kim, Far East Broadcasting Company ,who speaks and travels with hyper-charismatic and new age teaching Paul (David) Yonggi Cho and is vice president of the apostate Baptist World Alliance. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- John Dawson, charismatic author and International Director for Urban Missions of Youth With A Mission (YWAM). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Max Lucado, popular psychologically-oriented author and Church of Christ pastor. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- James Robison, hyper-charismatic pastor and televangelist. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Haddon Robinson, ecumenical Gordon-Conwell professor and neo-evangelical writer for Radio Bible Class. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rick Ryan, pastor of the charismatically-oriented Calvary Chapel of Santa Barbara, California. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dennis Rainey, self-esteem psychologizer. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ron Blue psychologizing financial guru. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Franklin Graham, Billy Graham's liberal son. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Following is taken directly from PK News October 97 article for the October 4th, 1997 "Stand In The Gap what can I expect" for their Promise Keeper "Stand In The Gap Gathering in Washington DC. It will be hosted by Native Americans because, "We've asked them because we want to show that we are sorry for what transpired on their land, and that as brothers in Christ, we want them to take the lead in this event...." "...But before the day begins, a large instrumental call to worship will kick off the assembly. "At sacred assemblies in Scripture, often it would say, 'Blow the trumpet,' Schlafer said. "In the Old Testament, the shofar (a ram's-horn trumpet) was blown prior to battles to signify the army of God. Our host people, the Native Americans, blew flute, and other people groups used trumpets. So, we will use numerous instruments to invoke the Spirit of God to consecrate the event." he said, "As we blow the horns to start the program, we will be announcing the arrival of royalty, the Lord of Lords and King of Kings." [Bold emphasis mine] WHAT SPIRIT WILL THEY REALLY BE CALLING?! The Spirit of Baal! They have joined themselves with the idols of worldly wisdom (psychology), the idols of Roman Catholics – the dead saints, and the new age and occult teachings of Native Americans as they seek to "invoke" the Spirit of God to this event! The Christians response is clear as it was in old testament days: "And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD [be] God, follow him: but if Baal, [then] follow him. And the people answered him not a word." 1 Kings 18:21 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Some closing verses for the reader to consider: "For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away [their] ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry." 2 Timothy 4:3-5 (자료출처 http://www.rapidnet.com/~jbeard/doesprom.htm) http://www.esesang91.com http://twtkr.com/rptministries http://www.facebook.com/RPTministries |
