Actually, the Word of God teaches that there is only ONE Spirit who is God. First of all we have the Holy Spirit which guides us when something is incorrect the holy spirit will Quicken us to let us know what is right and what is not. Nobody teaches lies and falsehoods all the time. They interact with one another because they are distinct from one another, as you and I are. With respect, I dont really care if you feel things are unequal between me and those who comment on my website. He noted that a prophet is not without honor except in his own town and in his own home. Verse 58 says this: And he did not do many miracles there because of their lack of faith. Modalists have that part right: there is only ONE God. Im not sure that what youve written makes sense. Its not about Steven Furtick, but about the fact that he teaches unbiblical ideas in the name of Jesus Christ. I could list other verses that show the Holy Spirit is also distinct from the Father and Son, of course. My question is about Elevation music do you think we ought to sing their songs at home or in church? Its correct in that theres only one God, but its wrong on the rest. The post has since been deleted from Furtick's social media channels. Well say things like, I wouldnt change a thing because thats what made me who I am. Well, that suggests that bad things might actually be good things. He even has a degree from my alma materThe Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. Instead of addressing the issues, you attack the messenger. And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure. 2 Corinthians 12:7. Hang in there, Nicole. If you agree that hes a false teacher but want to talk more about Matthew 13, at least Ill have some sense as to your intentions. If you will, please answer one simple question: Do you agree that God is a molecular structure? That statement is based solely on what we see in Scripture, with which anybody can and everybody should become familiar. Thanks. Id like to see a citation on him saying that Joyce Meyer is a great teacher. Now true, God does give us the measure of faith per scripture Romans 12:13, yet we must use that which is given. Another might be that Jesus, in some sense, rewards faith with action. Jesus cannot override someones unbelief. If the latter, just make the point. On the question of Revelation 22:18-19 I would ask you to consider a few questions. Thanks. Almost all of the books in the New Testament warn us about false teachers, and tell us what to do when we find them. Jesus is the head of the church, and Hes chosen to use us to accomplish His goals. We dont need the bad with the good. Jude gives us the definition of apostasy with examples, so we have the necessary information to discern between the example of Pauls ministry and those examples presented by Jude. The Proverb gains so much more meaning as you examine what actually happens during the sharpening process. This is wrong, per Romans 14 and I would suggest that its often actually sin. Thats what it means to say that Christ was from the beginning. So you dont believe that God is a molecular structure. As for not judging, you might take the time to look up the passage in question. WE DO NOT SAVE OURSELVES. Thats not legal. Jesus Himself said that He (as the Son) spoke nothing on His own. Heres something we can know with certainty: Gods power was not trapped in their perspective. Thats the direction of Furticks point, and its plain and simple evidence that hes comfortable pouring his own meaning INTO the text (eisegesis) rather than deriving Gods meaning OUT OF the text (exegesis). Unfortunately, based on his own words, hes not like that. In point of fact, it is undeniably heretical. Furtick had never known another young man whose love for Jesus seemed so genuine. It is false to teach that God is a multiple personality being. As for, Do you, in any sense, have power over God? Paul said he was not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: Notice the connection between Power and faith We are powerless without Him. It might be helpful for you to read What is a False Teacher. >> It is false to teach that God is a multiple personality being.

Wouldnt it be terrible if we spared each other the truth, and allowed our brother or sister to miss out on heaven? I will send the full force of my plagues against you and against your officials and your people, so you may knowthat there is no one likeme in all the earth. God wasnt powerless yet Steven Furtick claims that He was. "He said 'What about the dinosaurs? Many through the years have been wrong, and yet many saved through their ministries. Thank you for sharing this. After having said that, I believe youre probably right. Their low self-esteem is why Jesus COULD NOT release the power of God, no matter how badly He wanted to. Can you explain why? Jesus decisions about who to heal could have had several reasons or hundreds, or thousands behind them. Weve gone back and forth a number of times, and Im not entirely clear on where you stand. I believe it means all of Scripture and think these false teachings are adding to Scripture. As Josiah points out, Jesus healed people who had no faith as well. You have to see yourself healed [in your heart] before you see yourself healed [in reality]. "I was only 18. The scripture are flush with such scripture, and I shared many in my last response, as truly all things (healing, deliverance, and salvation, which is the greatest miracle) are possible, but one has to believe! Others salute him, even envy his success: They say he's innovative, connects with young people bored by old churchy ways, and brings souls to Jesus at a dizzying rate. We know him only as a regular guy, not somebody with any special favors from God, and they were offended in him verse 56. Its the denial that the Father, Son, and Spirit are three distinct persons. Now it's your turn to get dunked, he told the crowd, wheeling out a cart loaded with shorts, T-shirts, flip-flops, sports bras, boxers and more. But, seeing that you have an aversion to faith folks, you are not going to relent. May I share a harsh scripture that not only you, but all of us, may need to consider, Acts 5:38,39. No: Jesus was UNABLE to perform the miracles He wanted to perform because the people of Nazareth lacked faith. But as for, thats what it means to say that Christ was from the beginning? The problem: Elevation Church, led by Steven Furtick, suggests that an invitation to be baptized will be more effective if 15 volunteers are the first to move when the invitation is given. I have yet to see Furtick really talk about sin and repentance. Ther very first time I saw Steven, he reminded me of someone very long ago named Reverend Carl H. Stevens of The Bible Speaks Ministry back in the 70s and 80s. You have to be baptized to go to Heaven. If Im not a man of God then why did I start out this ministry with ZERO readers and grow to over 160,000 per month in a short period of time? Will God honor His word regardless of who presents it ? ), 7. Multnomah Books. How many times have we heard a sermon like this from Furtick, or Joel Osteen, or Kenneth Copeland? Is that the standard we find in the New Testament? So: while we cant understand the trinity, we CAN explain what the Bible says about God. We began to suffer from the pain of our loss, and although we did give birth to two healthy children, our marriage ended in divorce. Get motivation from Steven Furtick delivered right to your inbox. Its especially bad when we publish our bad decisions as a guide for others. Matthew 26 gives us more: My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Gamaliel didnt know whether this new sect of Jesus-followers was from God or not. Can you please provide the date of the sermon you reference (or better yet, a link as most Furtick sermons are available online). So that if mighty works be not wrought in us, it is not for want of power or grace in Christ, but for want of faith in us. Greater: Dream Bigger. Pauls entire ministry illustrates the selfless nature of the true Shepherd. I do think Steven Furtick should not entirely be blotted out but know that not all should be teachers as well and Steven Furtick should refine his biblical views before preaching on the podium again. The question is whether you were, or werent and you were. To be more precise, the Word of God teaches that there is only one God, and The Word of God also teaches that God is spirit. Teachers are very important and we need to be warned of false teachers. He's built a church empire with his "feel good" preaching, attractive worship, and excellent packaging. This isnt a difficult concept. As far as God is concerned, that settles the issue of healing, as its all done, 1 Peter 2:24. When we elevate people who lead others astray whether accidentally or by false teaching we risk the lives of our friends and family, both now and into eternity. One would assume that this kind of education might help him avoid really dumb theological ideas, but that assumption is flawed. Now, one could take that too far. why would you call me irresponsible? And Jesus said unto him, Go your way; your faith has made you whole. Did Father God forget to send out a memo that these responsibilities have been passed down to you? Hes pretty harsh. If you throw the ball, you are not the ball. God is the supreme authority in all things, and subject to none. Recently, I was watching a message by Pastor Steven Furtick, who is a fellow Southern Baptist Church planter and senior pastor of Elevation Church, which is also affiliated with the same. Of course it does its all over the gospels. Those things might include speaking in a foreign tongue, or healing, or something as simple as gaining insight into how to explain the gospel to someone. Neither is God limited to 3 dimensions as we are, but exists in such a way that the past, present and future are observed simultaneously. Typically, oneness folks will cut and run when asked to defend their view. Does not Paul say salvation is in the power of our tongues confession? And he went round about the villages, teaching. So, again, it can be either word used, as here, scripture does interpret scripture with similar scripture. Modalism has been considered heretical by the entire Body of Christ for almost 2000 years, so its not as if its a new idea. Jesus obediently passed on to us the things that the Father told Him to say. Furtick, Steven (2012). Yes, the first quote as noted is not heretical. Why did he always point seekers to the Father? All I did was point out the fact that you were repeating false teaching, which is OF COURSE irresponsible. You say Paul was a special case. No worries. God wanted Paul to be healed, but Paul had some hidden sin that prevented it. What do you do when someone asks you whether a teacher is reliable or unreliable? Thanks for asking. Thank you for your encouraging words. In this case, I consider it helpful to provide a general warning. God cannot sin. How did God respond? Knowledge is important but it alone doesnt save. A very simple way to assess anyones belief system is to ask them about the nature of God. Furtick stands at a height of 5 feet 9 inches(Approx.1.75m) tall and weighs 72kgs(158lbs). I get why these actually misdescribe the Trinity and are ultimately unhelpful. New to your work. What does the text say? The Scriptures are enough. Such a belief betrays a surface-level reading of Mark 6:5 and a failure to consider Jesus wider ministry. There are a number of very serious problems with Furticks teaching on this. If you disagree, I struggle to imagine why you would continue to argue about whether Furtick should be trusted to teach the gospel. God has existed in relationship with Himself for all eternity. We arent wandering in the wilderness. Where is the Holy Spirit conviction , wheres the guidance of the Holy Spirit ? To God? In essence it means a single entity being comprised of multiple constituents. Just what is the criteria in establishing if someone is a false teacher. I want to be discerning. So #1 is debunked. The ceremonial laws addressed uncleanliness. Its an observation. Sure, Furtick has said some strange things, and You should speak up against such, but to include the entire faith teachings is another thing. Furtick should know better, and you shouldnt parrot ideas about the Bible that you havent actually looked up. The screenshot below is from page 4 of Elevation Churchs helpful Spontaneous Baptism How To Guide. Is Steven Furtick TRYING to pervert the gospel, or has he simply not yet been led into all truth? He created laws, then needed to break them because He didnt foresee the circumstances that would require Him to break the law. He had a physical ailment that was never healed. Anything that contradicts Scripture is false. When people do that, we put them on medication. THAT is where people who follow Jesus should get their information, and THAT is where all theology should begin. He was making himself known by his visual works of power, as he told the evil hearted Scribes ; For whether is easier, to say, your sins be forgiven you; or to say, Arise, and walk? So, singing Jehovahs Witness songs would put licensing money in their pockets, furthering their ministry while promoting them as a source of good religious music. God the Father, son and spirit is one and same person in three forms to carry out different functions for man. He puts humanity in the position of thwarting Gods will, which is a common idea among Word of Faith teachers.

Ill address your use of Acts 5:38-39 first. He likes to hear them and I think most people are that way. The very idea of salvation contradicts that notion! If you have something to say, include Scripture. The scroll in question is a scroll of prophecy. That excludes a number of books in the Bible, since not all are prophetic.

He started in Lenox, MA and fled the area (for legal reasons) and continued to move around the country ultimately settling again in Baltimore, MD.

I hope youll take all of this in the spirit in which it was written: from one brother to another, with respect, and even a little fun. He made them all go outside. Its also biblical. If a man is labeled as a false teacher and not only a weaker brother , can he possibly be a child of God. I can certainly use the discussion to teach people how to handle Scripture properly, how the teachings of the Word of Faith movement come directly from New Thought, and how they distort the biblical record about God and man. Can we say they werent born again? My children hear them and see them and agree sometimes and dont see the pitfalls. If youre a Christian, one would assume that you believe the Bible to be a guide for Christians. God Himself saves us because we have met His terms of agreement. If not, then you would agree that Furticks statement about Gods nature is wrong. Its NOT a definitive answer. That fits with other texts, so maybe He didnt heal people who didnt want to be healed.

Ill recap, for clarity: Steven Furtick said that the power of God was in Jesus, and that He WANTED to do miracles, but Jesus could not BECAUSE the power of God was trapped in their unbelief. You seem to think that the power is in US that speaking those words is what saves us. Received you the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? And He therefore that ministers to you the Spirit, and works miracles among you, does he it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? Galatians 3: 2 and 5 Death and life is in the power of your tongue, not Gods. I also listened to Furticks full sermon on this subject yesterday. God is not limited by creation, but is above creation, transcends creation. Furtick launched Elevation Church in 2006. When Paul chastised the foolish churches in Galatia, he did so because they had turned to another gospel. The number of times someone is right is irrelevant to the question of whether they also teach false things. Second, we know that the Father is God, the Son is God, and the Holy Spirit is God. Its the result of twisting Scripture, not of careful study. I will try this and possibly get back with you when I get his response! This man may be and seemingly is wrong on some doctrinal issues. Making the claim as if its self-evidently true is a mistake, and not how we should handle Scripture. Is that the language of the kingdom? He took only the childs father and mother and the disciples Mark 5:39,40, showing doubt hinders, faith encourages favorable out comes. No, all these scripture above are contrary to your saying; our lack of faith cannot prevent Him from acting if He wants to just does not fit. If you can provide evidence that one of these people has recanted their false teaching, please let me know. Thank you for taking the time to share this. Word of Faith teachers regularly demote God and promote man. I hope not. Appreciate that look up. Third, we know that the Son is not the Father nor the Spirit, and that the Spirit is not the Father. How do you explain the trinity?

Unfortunately, his understanding of Psalm 78:41 is off-base. You inspire me to work harder to be encouraging, so youre awesome. However: teaching that Moses is I Am goes too far. If Im wrong, Im wrong and correcting me is doing me a huge favor. That doesnt undo or excuse false teaching, of course. Do you believe that God is a molecular structure? God is Spirit and we who worship him must worship him in Spirit and TRUTH (John 4:24), so, no, dont agree with Steven Furtick. In this specific conversation, the question is whether Jesus COULD HAVE performed more miracles in Nazareth, or COULD NOT HAVE. I also was attached to Furtick and his teachings not too long ago but thank God for a biblical counselor who called him out and really challenged me to listen to what he is saying. Moses said to God, Suppose I go to the Israelites and say to them, The God of your fathers has sent me to you, and they ask me, What is his name?Then what shall I tell them?, God said to Moses, I am who I am. But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that comes to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Hebrews 11:6.
