There were seasons when ihop was way out there. And, there were seasons when the Lord greatly used them. The global intercession, the worship team, the powerful gift too the Nations will remain. It’s called GROWTH … it’s called MATURITY … ! It’s sad ! Sad that the church in America is so easily swayed by lack of understanding regarding the “gifts of the Spirit,” and as always… throws out the bath water, including the Truth that the baby has too MATURE. !!!! One can preach, and teach the word all their days. But, the Truth is, without the illumination of the Holy Spirit on that scripture, the depth of revelation will NEVER COME too LIFE. 😢. Lord, help the Church, on the aUSA, help their attitude toward the FULL Counsel of GOD 😫 These DAYS Mike Bickle is an Extra- Ordinary Man of God, carrying Extravagant Depth and Revelation.

Calvinist mumbo-jumbo…. He gives the measure of faith to EVERY man, those who choose to follow Christ become the elect. God is no respecter of persons but rich unto any and all who will call upon Him.

Mumbo jumbo.????....you skip a whole lot of many Bible Word.

@@Bobepc Fyi: I heard the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The Lord God gave me the faith in Christ Jesus at being desperate convinced of my complete darkness towards Him. When He took me of that frightening road to eternal darkness, I repented. My darkness and sins are judged on His work on the cross and His blood covers that and my sinful nature. Even now, knowing Christ better and better, my sorrow over my sins and sinful natural nature is bigger than when I first knew Jesus Christ's compassion, mercy and lovingkindness. But also my deep joy of knowing Him and the Father enhances. I was not raised in a christian home. I had nor have knowlegde of the mindset of a calvinist. I read the whole Bible slowly for years and years and trust the Word and believe all the Word with joy and grief, because of His graceful patience; waiting and working for Him to come to judge all unrighteous, vengeful worldly man. Waiting and working for Him to end the time. Probably I am much more strict than any 'calvinist' you can imagine. So, predestination by God for living in the light in Christ, is true. That I am His child is not because He found any good in me, even on the contrary. No man is good in the eyes of God. Why is it so hard to acknowlegde that God puts the believe in Christ in your heart? The Bible tells the believer on every page that God is the One Who does everything on earth. By the way, almost all texts where you find 'every, all man' is about the elect of God. Context context context. He starts the work of molding to the image of His Son in them until their death or until He comes back. If you bobepc share the faith in Christ, is your salvation and belonging to Christ of your choice or not? Of course we reversed to Him, in believing the gospel. Is it hard to acknowlegde that before we did so, God changed our hearts, opened our ears? The Bible says so. If a man could choose for Christ Jesus of Scripture, we must assume that there is something good in man, is not it? God tells man that He finds nothing of any worth for Him. Therefore the child of God is His new creation. You say: 'God is no respecter of persons but rich unto any and all who will call upon Him'. Thank you, that is exactly what God says. God elaborate the salvation during the lifetime of the believer, in fiery trials. (the word choose is rare in Scripture, God uses it in regard to those He chose in His Old and now in His New Covenant) It is not superfluous to call 'choosers for Christ become the elect'? It does not add anything wonderful to the chooser. No, the elect are elect and foreknown before the beginning of the world. The Bible tells and confirms that over and over. God does it this way. It is also clearly written in Scripture that God surely does not love every man. I hope that you will find truth. Better read the KJv based on all the Texts of the Brethren of old. Greetings, with regards

@@marijkeambrosius4233 - Thinking that God chose you special and rejected your neighbor with absolutely no hope is the epitome of thinking God saw “something good or special about you”, it is elitism and pride in its highest form. On top of that, to think you have mastered the scriptures and have come to the correct interpretation and “context, context, context” of predestination and election above your “lesser” non-Calvinist brethren is just another display of arrogance and pride, I don’t buy the phony humility act. No, you are NOT special, God did not give you a special privilege that he didn’t give EVERY MAN that would simply repent, believe, put their trust in Christ, and follow Him faithfully. As Peter said in Acts 17:30 - And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth ALL MEN EVERYWHERE to repent. And Rom 10:12-13 - For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over ALL is rich unto ALL THAT CALL UPON HIM. For WHOSOEVER shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Don’t try to “context” (twist) those verses and change what they say to fit your narrow Reformed/Calvinist dogma.

@@marijkeambrosius4233 - I apologize, my comments were overboard towards you and more directed at the numerous Refomed/Calvinists who have condescendingly dismissed my viewpoint and said I just don’t read the scriptures, which is not true. I study and meditate on scripture daily, I just come to a different conclusion on the workings of sovereignty, predestination and election. I hold to the classic John Wesley view that it is based on Gods foreknowledge of the future in regards to a person’s faith. Not predetermined, just pre known.
