Destructive (damnable) heresies of NAR and Word Faith cults: Part 2

The NAR's chief spokespersons today are Bill Johnson, Kris Vallotton, co-pastors at Bethel Church, and Che Ahn, pastor of Harvest Rock Church in Pasadena, Ca. These men claim to hear from God on a daily basis. They will often say things like, "The Lord told me," or, "God told me this morning." They hear from heaven more than the Lord Jesus did.      I would also guess that most of those reading this blog post have never heard of Bethel Church or Bill Johnson or Kris Vallotton.  They are popular in neo-charismatic and Pentecostal circles.

Romans 7:24-8:4 makes it plain that though we continue to sin, the finished work of Christ has made us righteous. We are not under law but under grace. And while in my flesh there dwells nothing good, in my inner man I am alive, born of the Spirit, and that which is born of God cannot sin. ...
