I was recently severely reprimanded by the elders of the church where we were attending for teaching against false teachers and teachings including Bethel, Hillsong, & Elevation churches. I was stunned. My wife & I have left that church.
That church and those elders especially are NOT about obeying God’s word! So glad you and your wife left! Being severely reprimanded for doing what God commands is ALARMING!
I was involved in that for many years and got out several years ago. Painful but necessary! If you get a chance...check out the book (I listened to it on Audible) "Counterfeit Kingdom"....it is so thorough on this subject...Justin always does a great job too
I was baptized at Bethel church in my home country when I was 12, along with my brother and 3 cousins. Never been asked why I want to be baptized, never understand the meaning of baptism. At that time my parents just came to faith, they got baptized and wanted their children to be baptized too. 2 of my cousins that baptized with me left christianity. I left that church long time ago and found a church that teach the true Gospel. All praise to God!
Nobody told me or taught me about Baptism. As a brand new convert with a hunger for our Triune God I discovered it in the Bible. I began to research it and concluded that it was an act of obedience that cemented my relationship with Jesus. This baptism was the buriel of the old man. Praise God that arising from the water I was now alive in Christ. The Scriptures opened up. What an exciting and chastising journey I began. Parenting changed...marriage changed...and behold everything became new. Thank You Father for your love. Thank you Jesus for your love and obedience to Your Father and the undeserved gift of Salvation and thank You Holy Spirit for being ever present and always helpful every minute of the day. Thank you Ps.Peters for your guidance. I trust many lives are rescued and put on the right path. Have you a sermon on Baptism /s?
My daughter was baptised when she was 6. She asked to be baptised so I told her she had to be mature enough to ask the pastor. He came back to me looking shaken. She asked him herself and he asked why she wanted to be baptised. She said because I want to live in christs resurrection power!!! She died a few years later. She knew the Lord .
Exactly! Thank you Bro. Justin! I was one of those children baptized at eight years old and put faith and confidence in that baptism for 30 years. Raised in a SBC church and never once did anyone explain salvation or why a person needs to be saved! Please continue your hard work. People need to see and hear this. Not only Bethel but all so called churches that do not preach and teach the Truth! Thank you for the love you have for the souls of men! Love you and pray for you my Brother!
Like you, I was born / raised in an SBC church. In the 4th grade I went down front during the altar call at a citywide crusade in my town. I didn't know WHY I went down. And it was actually my pastor's wife that "counseled" me there. She never asked WHY I was there, or WHAT I believed I had done. Next thing I know my uncle is so happy about me being there that I just didn't ask any questions. He was so proud of me...for something?! Next thing I know after that I'm getting baptized at church. Once again, no questions, no counseling, nothing. It would be another 5 years before God was able to get me to see that I hadn't done anything, and I then surrendered my life to Christ.
@@bradorchard5828 the immature christian says: Lord, I want to live my life for you. The MATURE christian says: Lord I want you to live your life through me. Until people get that point in their head, they will never understand what they are doing or saying.
My wife and I were convicted to do the same thing. Firstly, I left the worship band after 5 years, shared my convictions with the worship band and pastor, and initially, everyone acted like they cared about the issues that I presented them. After providing tons of evidence as to why we should walk away from the heretical teachings of hillsong, bethel, etc., my stance essentially had little to no impact on the direction my old church would take. No bueno. I walked away.
Thanks. Personally I love early Hillsong United Australia under Darlene. However, Hillsong United New York is questionable. I listen to and praise along in my personal praise, but in a Church service standards to doctrine and Scripture truths must be upheld.
Despite a lifetime in Southern Baptist church, involved in many varied ministry activities, I have come to realize that I was yet woefully pride-filled and wicked. I’m 61, and although I have always identified as a Christian, I hid my sins, embraced new age lies, and only experienced worldly grieving. I had never truly admitted just how vile my sinful heart has always been, and just how much my wickedness has grieved our LORD until I began to consume your series and truly humble myself in His Word. Because of your tough brotherly love, I have for the first time experienced conviction by the Holy Spirit. Although I in no way deserve it, I finally now understand the depth of sacrifice Jesus made on the cross for me. While many might now see me as broken - I have MS and given up worldly prosperity - I rejoice daily because His grace is sufficient, His mercies soften my old heart, and His Word feeds my soul. Thank you, dear brother, and may God bless you and your ministry. Your boldness in Christ had helped me to hear my Master’s call and turn me from the wide path to destruction. Praise God!!!
Now THAT’S a testimony, unlike the ones in the video ❤ I too was baptized at a very early age and the only thing I remember is that I wanted to make my dying grandmother happy. I hated going to church, felt no conviction over disobeying my parents, over my rebellious heart, nothing. I am more grateful than I can say that the Lord is so long suffering and merciful to me.
Mike Winger finally came out with a breakdown on one of Bethel’s books. It was so good. He finally took a hard stand and is warning people to get out of this movement.
@@jaredcrusen3072Check Westwood vid on Wingers vid. Westwood was imbedded in Bethel movement as worship leader. ( it takes time to de-construct Bethel teachings ) and Think he’s using platform to reach out to Bethel friends. I was disappointed in Mike on his vids of Johnson &others but he did an excellent job interviewing real Biblical translators “ The Passion”translation.
THANK YOU Jared. I said the same thing. I even posted a comment on that video but moved it to Jesse Westwoods video. He owes his church and those he misled with his weakness a clear “I repent.” That’s it. Just an admission of his sinful lack of discernment.

To see those little ones being lead down this wrong path is heartbreaking and I can’t even begin to think of how angry and hurt the Lord Jesus is. Thank you for this teaching Justin, I pray that people in Bethel see this video and the Holy Spirit opens their eyes and they truly turn to Jesus our saviour.
...Tia Darling ...the only folks that are going to see this video , are the Gripers...Murmurmers...and Complainers that have flocked to the Junkyard of The Reformed Church. BETHEL Church needs less prayer than this dead group of peoples do ...because I have noticed that folks who leave their Church...and come to You Tube Channels like this one that Encourages & Congratulates Rebellion ...Never grow Spiritually again ! ( Jesus it seems has Given up on you Rebels ...)
It is heartbreaking indeed and yes, may it please the true Lord to set His heart on them and save them, because if they die in this condition, they will be in for quite a shock on Judgment day when they stand before Him and hear Him say to them, "I never knew you! Depart from me, you workers of iniquity!", and then be thrown into the lake of fire, also known as Hell, where they will suffer everlasting punishment and be separated from His presence with absolutely no hope of escape.
I came out of Bethel after I started their ministry school. The list of what was wrong with the teaching is too long to type. My family still attends Bethel. They won’t watch these videos or listen to me share my concerns. Please pray that they come out of this church. Also I have learned from this video that I’m not sure if I’m truly saved. After Bethel I just quit going to church. I think they are a cult but haven’t heard the word preached like it was in this video. Thank you for opening my eyes I now need to reevaluate my whole life’s beliefs.
God bless you. I pray God guides you to a church that teaches sound Biblical doctrine that you can call home. Hugs to you and I am so glad God has drawn you away from the heretical teachings of Bethel Church. Prayers for your family and do not cease praying for them. ❤️✝️
I don’t agree with that church ! Please keep your position about Bethel! But, with love, keeping praying for your family and PLEASE FIND A REALL CHRISTIAN CHURCH and do not stay without going to church !
If you are not truly sure that you are saved you can be! Read Romans 10:9-13 and do as it says. Also read the gospel of John and pay close attention to every passage where the Lord Jesus tells how to be born again by Believing In Him. John 3:16, 36; 6:47 and many many more like First John 5:13, and Acts 13:38-39. I am praying for you and your family.

Amen Justin! I have had the same problem with my church: they baptize kids at 5, 6, 7 years old without even finding out if they really understand what baptism and being saved means. It makes no sense. When I was about 8 years old, I wanted to get baptized because some of my oldest siblings were, not because I knew what it meant. I thank God that my mom and dad had enough discernment to tell me no.
My church literally bribed us as children. We were given a toy if we came up to the microphone and recited a verse (without understanding its meaning) and/or if we 'Asked Jesus into our heart', as it always goes. Obviously we didn't know what that was about either. That was our evangelical experience, and then we were simultaneously Roman Catholic, i you can fathom that - and we had both of those false systems bumping up against each other - all the while understanding basically none of it, whether good, bad or neutral.
Thank you for saying that! My seven-year-old wanted to get baptized and he professed belief at six years old. But during the same interaction at church that day when he asked to get baptized he was also yelling at me because he couldn’t get a doughnut from the donut table. So yeah, I’m so thankful I told him no he could not get baptized that he needs to be a little older to understand it better😂
My church baptizes based on the faith of their parents or their own mature confession if they are older. The sign of the old covenant was applied irrevocably to children at 8 days old.
@@trentenmeyer4513 If you are a pastor who will receive stricter judgement by God for being in that position, should you not concern yourself as to whether or not you are creating false converts?
Someone could answer “ I’m being baptized today because my date fell through and I didn’t have anything else to do tonight so… I thought I’d just come down and get baptized” The so called Pastor would say “PERFECT “!
I was baptized in a Pentecostal church that I used to go to when I was younger. Even there I had to talk to the pastor before I decided to get baptized, read the Bible and answer the questions to make sure I understood what baptism was. That was more than 10 years ago. I think today's baptism became like a potion that will make your life better and people are falling for that.
This is good timing. I have just finished reading ‘Counterfeit Kingdom’ (got it Saturday, finished it Sunday) and this fits in completely with what is exposed in that book. Thank you, brother, for your fearless denunciation of false teachers and false churches. 👍

I don't want to fall prey to wolves in sheep's clothing .......
I just want you to know I have felt the same way and people fall away easily and they do not realize it Jesus told a parable it applies to people like you and I Luke 18:10- 14 Two men went to the Temple to pray, one pharisee and the other a tax collector 11 The pharisee stood and prayed to himself, O God! I thank you that I am not like the rest of humanity -greedy, dishonest, immoral, or like this tax collector! 12 I fast twice a week, I pay tithes on my entire income 13 But the tax collector, standing far off, would not even raise his eyes toward Heavene, but beat his breast and said, Have mercy on me the sinner that I am! 14 I tell you, this man went down to his home right with God rather that the other For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but everyone who humbles himself will be exalted John 4:23 But the time is coming - indeed, its here now - when the true worshipper will worship the Father spiritually and truly, for these are the kind of people the Father wants worshipping Him 24 God is spirit; and worshippers must worship Him spiritually and truly John 6:45 It is written in the prophets, They will all be taughtt by God; Everyone who listens to the Father and learns from Him comes to Me Prayers going up!

Want to build your faith on a true and solid foundation? Listen to every video you can of Charles Stanley-get his Bible with notes included. Listen to Derek Prince (NOT: Joseph Prince). Systematically study along with him as he teaches Romans and other essential books of the Bible. God Bless!
No, I haven't wondered. I've known for almost 20 years. But thank you, Justin, for continuing to warn about these false teachers! True love warns about false doctrine and false practices.
Justin, were these people being baptized in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit? Many new converts are not well versed in baptismal theology. They are babes in Christ. What does Bill Johnson actually teach about baptism?
@@thegospelpeacemakersforum7805 these folks are saying things like "to be a warrior for the animal kingdom". That is legit absolutely nutso. Baptism is an outward expression of what happens on the inside when we're spiritually regenerated. Bethel is leading many to hell because they are responsible for so many false converts.
Sometime between (1834-1892) - Charles H. Spurgeon said this. “A time will come when instead of shepherds feeding the sheep, the church will have clowns entertaining the goats.” And almost 2,000 years ago 2 Timothy was written. And in 2 Timothy Chapter 4 v 3-4, it does say this. 3 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; 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
Yes, the testimony about being a warrior for animals is looney tunes and should have been corrected. The other testimony about getting closer to Jesus is something that I have heard numerous times in Baptist churches, Calvary chapels etc. There was nothing wrong with that. Not any doctrinal depth but again, these are new converts. Does Justin expect them to recite about baptism from the Westminster catechism? I also dispute his contention that all of these baptismal candidates aren't really saved. The animal warrior lady probably isn't but is he God who knows the secrets of the hearts of all these new converts? Peters is usually right on but this is not one of his better videos.
My husband thinks he is saved, but he hasn't changed. I pray for him. But no one knows what I'm going through in this marriage. Pray for me. That God will strengthen me and make a way for me from abuse.
Please I will pray for you please read the word everyday pour out your heart to God. Know that if the abuse your going through is serious you need to get somewhere safe❤ God bless ask God what his will is for you🙏❤️
Yes I know exactly what u are living in. A so called saved man can be mean spirited, demeaning and emotionally absent. Keep your eyes on JESUS. He will help u keep HIS joy and HE will be your strength ❤
It is amazing how ignorant people can be. The Bethel band came to South Africa in March 2023 and when I commented to my neighbours that it is sad that people attend their concerts with out knowing what the theology behind the group is. My neighbour then asked what do I mean and I just mentioned a few of their beliefs. She was shocked and was upset that this is not known and shared.
@@dillonmaclennan1261prosperity gospel, always God's will to heal, health and wealth name it claim it nonsense. If they preached a real message even once they'd lose 1/3rd of their following in a day.
Even more sad is that the listeners, the pew potatoes, fail to even test the spirits of what they are being taught! Most Christians in just about every gathering that I’ve experienced are either brand new believers or luke warm believers. Sometimes you see the fallen away Chriatians. It is rare when you come across a brother or sister in the faith that has matured through time and can discern between what aligns with scripture and what does not. Of course, non of us humans are perfect. We are all a work in progress but some of the teachings that comes out of bethel church contradict the word of God! Show me the feathers 🪶
@@FluffyMustache it is, in His own way and according to His purpose. There's tons of devout and Godly people who have afflictions, including the apostle Paul. Healing doesn't always come in the conventional way or even in this life. Similar to the teachings of Kenneth Copeland, it's sometimes implied or even said that a healing not taking place comes from a lack of faith. Gods sovereignty is almost completely wiped out of the equation. The one thing we need to understand is that God's grace is sufficient for us.
I spent 20+/- yrs in a church similar to this. I always knew there were things being taught that were wrong but I stayed. I had gone through some very traumatic events prior to going there. I see now that people who go through trauma are drawn into these emotional "churches". Only after studying my Bible did I realize that I was following false doctrine. Before I left I voiced my thoughts but I knew they weren't listening. I was told I'm angry, hateful, etc. Nonetheless, I left. I feel a burden has been lifted. I am now in a Bible based church growing in the word of God. Thank you for trying to wake people up.
I was raised under a ministry for 25 years that taught WOF, prosperity and new age teaching. I was being trained to become a pastor by the leadership who where close family friends to us. Some of these leaders were personal friends of people like Oral and Kenneth. One day the lights kicked on by the grace of God and I instantly felt like something was wrong. I started checking the Bible against all the teaching I was receiving and realized it was all being pulled out of context. Fast forward 3 years and I am still undoing the immense damage that was done. I basically had to follow the regimen they use for people coming out of a cult. Retraining everything you believe. I can assure you as well, it is very hard to talk someone out of leaving these places because to them your talking them away from God. I've found its subtle nudges of truth that eventually find their way in. For me it was the realization when someone showed me the passion translations horrible inaccuracies. My heart breaks for all these people and we cannot give up on them. Lord open their eyes to the truth that we share with them.
The Lord caused me to be born again when I was 22. I was definitely saved but got caught up in Bethel teaching for a few years. It brought such rotten fruit into my family. Because Bethel does not teach the Bible I was not pointed to the scripture on my role as a wife and a mother. My heart grieves because I cannot get that time back with my oldest son but I trust in the Lord! Bethel kept me focused on what amazing thing God was going to do with me. I sought out speaking on stages instead of being a mother. God is merciful and I am raising my youngest son, being submissive to my husband and enjoying my little guy as we homeschool! Praying for my oldest because I can’t get back that time in his teenage years when he should’ve been getting sound doctrine. But God is faithful.
Hi Justin! Your ministry has been such a blessing to me! I went to Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry and God brought me out of that movement. Your videos have been very helpful to me regarding their false teachings. I just wanted to clarify that the man doing the baptisms at the beginning isn't Chris Cruz. His name is Joel Power. God bless you!
Wow - praise the Lord, Mitchell!! This is so encouraging to hear! THAT is the true power of the Holy Spirit. And, thank you for the heads up on this man's right name. Chris Cruz looked like him on their website and no one else seemed to be a match at all. Wish I could change the video but I can't now. I'll put a note in the description. Blessings to you :)
Mitchell, have you watched any of the videos from Jesse Westwood? He also went to BSSM. I have very much enjoyed his take on what he saw and did while there. Check him out, if you haven't.

Thank you Justin. I have been burdened the past few months about the salvation of my boys 8&4. The older one asked to be baptized but my husband said no, because child said because he wanted to be born again. We are now studying the Bible with them chapter by chapter (God help us in this) and praying for them and that God would reveal his salvation to them at his time. Friends let’s pray for these little children. I was born catholic but God called me out to himself by no act of my own. I started reading my Bible in college and got very uncomfortable with where I was. I praise him for granting me repentance and he can for these kids too.
SALVATION: To clarify the gospel of our salvation: Our gospel that saves us today is to believe that Jesus died on the cross, shedding His blood, was buried and rose from the dead for the forgiveness of our sins. I Cor 15:1-4. That's step one. Step two: We must put our trust in this gospel for the forgiveness of our sins and nothing else, to be saved. It's that simple. Jesus did the work necessary for our salvation. We cannot. Paul puts it this way: Eph 1:13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, True salvation only comes when we believe that Jesus is our ALL SUFFICENT SAVIOR. We cannot add anything to His blood shed and work of salvation on the cross for the forgiveness of our sins. We are not saved by repenting (turning from sin), being baptized in water, walking an aisle, saying a prayer, confessing with your mouth, being “born again”, or following Jesus’ earthly ministry. Those are mostly "works" salvation. We are saved by grace, not works (Rom 11:6), through faith alone, in Christ work on the cross. It is a gift 100%. Rom 3:24 KJV Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Titus 3:5-6, I Cor 15:1-4 Rom 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. He came to save sinners, not people trying to make themselves righteous by doing some kind of good work, getting wet or turning from their sins, they cannot do totally anyway. Simply believe and put your trust in the new gospel Jesus gave to Paul for us today to be saved by. Then start reading Rom - Phil to understand what was written to us the body of Christ, so we could know what God wants from us and who we are in Christ, once we are saved. The books Paul wrote are the only place we find the gospel that saves us today. Then read the rest of your bible that is FOR us but not TO and ABOUT us. 94% of the bible is TO and ABOUT Israel, yes Israel. Don’t steal their mail and try to make it yours. And don’t be fooled by people who tell you, you need to do some good work to be saved or to stay saved or to prove that you are saved. That is not the gospel for us today which is a free gift of GRACE when we believe and trust in what Jesus did on the cross for our sins. Eph 2:8 KJV For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Eph 2:9 KJV Not of works, lest any man should boast.
If children die before the age of accountability they go straight to God no matter what faith they were born into. After the age of accountability a person then will go one way or the other.

So scripture seems to indicate one is responsible and accountable from age 20 and up.
Amen to the fact the Holy Spirit leads His children to truth. I am proof of that. I was led to solid teachers like John MacArthur, Paul Washer, Alistair Begg, etc over 25 years ago when I didn’t understand how much I needed the truth. Now you are making me understand the difference between what I came out of by the grace of God and what the Word of God actually says. Thank you
Amen, me too. When I was a young teen I used to watch Sid Roth and all kinds of crazy testimonies of people going to heaven, speaking to angels, etc. and grew up around hyper charismatics. I believe I was saved then since I understood and believed the gospel, and fairly quickly the Lord led me to sound, biblical preaching. The Lord will lead His children to the truth!
Doesn’t it just make you jump for joy to know how the Lord leads His own even when you don’t have local solid Biblical teaching. I live in a small city in Oklahoma and there are no strong Bible based churches for us to connect with.
McArthur needs to read the Bible. Especially the New Testament. I have read his study Bibles but threw them out when I read in his own study Bible that he does not believe in healing. Healing is a part of the atonement. McArthur teaches law not grace ! So let's all quit pointing fingers!!
Thankfully my son who applied to attend the Bethel school of supernatural ministry in California saw the red flag during his interview with the school representatives. The nature of the questions posed to him were extremely personal. He also realised that having to pay people ( thousands of dollars) to enable him to learn about spiritual gifts ( which in apostolic times were presented free of charge) was a somewhat corrupt and false form of ministry.

@@llllllllllllllIIlIllIIllIIIIllSimon the sorcerer tried to pay to get the gifts of the Holy Spirit and was harshly rebuked and told to repent. The gifts of the spirit cannot be taught; they’re given by God. Bethel is a false church. Please read your Bible!
I got saved at 7 years old. I knew who Jesus was and wanted to invite Him into my heart. I repented of my sins and chose to follow Him. Sure I was young, but I stand by that experience. I got baptized when I was a bit older, as my parents wanted to ensure I had complete understanding and more years of wisdom in my faith before being baptized. To this day, I still love and follow Christ. I believe that perhaps it is rare, but children can certainly understand and find Christ.
Thank you so much for preaching the gospel.. Let's pray God will use this video to reach His people at Bethel and other false churches, that their eyes will be opened and they will repent and be saved.
Lutheran from Denmark here. As a somewhat distant cousin, so to speak, in the wider protestant family of Christendom, the whole charismatic movement has thankfully not affected us all that much, yet. Geography and religious demographics being contributory factors as well. But it can be found here, of course, along with watered down forms of prosperity gospel and all that. But even watching from a (still) somewhat safe distance is scary enough. I knew already the havoc it has been wrecking on Latin America, and the broad strokes of it all. But stumbling upon Peters’ videos has been eye-opening indeed. Despite what differences there might be between us, God bless, and please keep up the good work, this is a common enemy.
Oh my heart is breaking for these little children and people who are under such deception and false teaching. My eyes teared up, and my heart breaks. I am praying for these people, especially these precious children that they will learn the truth and be set free. We just came out of the false church (word of faith 😮) about six months ago. Although we had our eyes opened slowly before that… And praise be to God we are in a good doctrine teaching church now. We are so thankful to be set free out of the deception. We appreciate your videos Justin. We plan to go to your seminar here in Michigan this spring (clouds without water.) and we can’t wait to hear you and support your mission. Our little children also enjoy listening to your teachings. Be blessed.
Sometime between (1834-1892) - Charles H. Spurgeon said this. “A time will come when instead of shepherds feeding the sheep, the church will have clowns entertaining the goats.” And almost 2,000 years ago 2 Timothy was written. And in 2 Timothy Chapter 4 v 3-4, it does say this. 3 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; 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. false prophets Jeremiah Chapter 14 14 Then the LORD said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart. false prophets
I agree, it’s truly heartbreaking. Cry out to God in prayer these false churches and cults will be destroyed and from the ashes the true Gospel will be preached to these lost souls by a qualified and Spirit filled man of God. Also, I praise our Almighty Lord and Savior for rescuing y’all from those false teachers/motivational speakers who are not preaching the Gospel of Christ to the lost. Most of all I thank and praise Him that y’all are currently in a doctrinally sound, Bible preaching church! Praise God and I’ll pray for y’all. Thank you for sharing your experience. You’re in the perfect place to be taught truth in a biblical way by Justin.
unfortunately, many many people are warming church pews on Sundays and are deceived to think they are saved. I should know, I was one of them, before I was actually baptized in the Holy Ghost and Born Again in 2016. I was raised in a Lutheran church, and had NO IDEA who Jesus really was and what He really did. This is happening everywhere :( "Christian" is simply a label now :( I don't even call myself a "Christian". I make sure to differentiate that I am a Born Again servant of the Most High God, and that I have the Spirit of God dwelling inside me. I was mortified when I was actually saved, to think I lived 42 years of life calling myself a "Christian", and thinking I had eternal life, and how many more there were out there like I was :(
@@hismercysavessallysue5927 ...you need to talk to Justin Peters; he left the Baptist church ... and preaches Reformed theology now - that says one doesn't have to Believe anything - just kick back and let God save you , SallySue. Therefore...Nobody ever receives Salvation in Justin's denomination...or get's Healed...nor gets a Prayer answered : because they don't teach that you have to have FAITH ...
Thank you Justin. God bless you abundantly. I used to go to a "big church" with a "famous pastor" mostly because I enjoyed the "worship music". I was there for more than a decade. Thank God, the scales fell from my eyes eventually - same like the apostol Paul. Pandemic worked for me as a time of reflection and I was able to listen sermons from different pastors, I realized how rich is the Bible in teachings and how little I was learning from that church. Long story short, I quit that church and now I go to a small church which is Bible-based and runs weekly community groups where people can get to know each other, pray and study the bible together. God bless you!
I recommend that folks watch the baptisms that happen every Sunday night at John MacArthur's church, Grace Community Church, and compare that with what happens at Bethel... it's like night and day. You will hear the gospel in their testimonies and it will leave you in tears!
I was being a good Catholic and fasting for lent when the Holy Spirit filled me and I was so heart broken I wept for days I had joy and assurance but the Holy spirit convicted me like I've never felt I tried to fight it because I loved the Catholic church but He didn't allow it Easter was the last mass I participated in I flew to Oregon to see my brother get ordained as a priest but did not participate I doubt I'll be invited back but anyway brother you are 💯% percent right the Spirit of God would not allow anyone He was indwelling to attend that church I know this from personal experience
All my life,i thought i was saved but it seems like I was just confused and deceived. Until few months ago when i started to hunger for the truth,i felt something was missing,i wanted to know God more. I was so much in the darkness that i actually believed all religions serve the same God and that made me start doubting the bible,i was depressed and had so much hatred,i was deeply in the world. I'm so glad i found your channel. It has been a big blessing.
As a balance to the view of kids baptism, my 11 year old became a Christian and fully understands what the gospel is, he truly repented of his sins and was weeping with joy at the grace of god. As his parents we totally knew it was a real conversion. However the testimony he wrote was very brief and only mentioned that he loves Jesus and wants to follow him. So on the face of it he may have seemed to not understand but he really did. Our pastor talked to him before obviously to make sure he understood. I don’t think we should discount the little ones’ faith just cause of their age.
“How much do you have to hate someone to know the truth of the gospel and withhold it from your congregation” (paraphrased) hit hard. It’s true, these narcissistic mega church pastors only tell you things YOU WANT to hear. That keeps people coming in!! I enjoyed your presentation of the gospel at the end!
💥As someone who experienced the revival that started in Pensacola.On father's day spread to anaheim, toronto And pasadena in the late 90s, this was A REAL Move of the HolySpirit with signs an wonders brought on by repentance. I lived in CA but did travel to conferences, because of this incredible thing happening I came extremely close to moving to Redding CA so my children could attend Betel Christian school about 20 yrs ago BUT The Lord Jesus had other plans so I needed up moving up north so my children could grow up around family. I later seen from a distance (mostly watching the Todd Bently stuff on internet, an documentary) how the enemy was able to creep in due to pride, ego an the love of money by those in leadership an of course 20 yrs later its worse but please don't assume everyone's experience is fake just like I can't assume everyone's is real (like I used to) Jesus know those truly searching for TRUTH An who truly Love him. SHALOM an Blessings in Jesus name to all True believers 😇🙏
Thank you so much for your great work, dear brother! God used you to open the eyes of my husband and me several years ago, and we pray for you and your ministry every morning. Much love from a sister in Denmark.
Fedt at høre at der er andre danskere som holder fast i bibelen. Der er efterhånden en del frikirker i Danmark hvis højeste mål er at blive en kopi af Bethel church eller Hillsong, og de vil bare have tegn og undere og mange mennesker, og så kommer bibelens sande ord i anden række desværre..................
Thank you for this video. I really like what you said at the end about how it doesn't matter how "sincere" you. It reminded of me of when I was in college and was preparing for a mission trip to LA with the Baptist Student Union of my college. We knew that as part of this trip we were going to take tours of the Mormon Temple and the Hari Krishna temple. One of the leaders got us together and said that he had a very important video that he wanted us to watch in order to prepare for what we were going to see. He pops the VHS into the machine...and "It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown" starts playing. We start giggling, thinking he maybe made a mistake? Nope. He doesn't say a word until the video is over. When it ends we're all wondering WHY he had us watch this? He said that what he wanted us to see in this silly video is how Linus was completely sincere in his belief about the great pumpkin, but he was sincerely wrong. He warned us that we would see a lot of people who were very sincere in their faith in whatever they believed, but they were sincerely wrong. He was right by the way.
Justin… I am not a cessationist.. but your presentation of the gospel was so pure and true and moving… thank you brother… we must be crushed by the weight of our sin and the glory of Christ’s sacrifice.. blessings to you
We were in a church that taught Bethel church teachings for 10 years we no longer there, thank Good for people like you ,teaching truth and exposing deception and through the power of the Holy Spirit revealing truth to those that they want to hear the truth.
I want to thank you so much for making this video. "Churches" like this make people think there is a great revival coming. I see so many people with the notion that we are not under Romans 1 judgment. That there aren't really many false teachers. From charismatic to JW, my town is filled with false churches. With a population of 15K those aren't good odds. Many are hung over on Sunday and attend no church. The remaining ones have chosen false churches. I will share this video, because people need it. Seems I have put God in a box. Tongues, hearing voices, those are "normal" and expected. And thank you for your daily Bible reading. I must say that I find your voice very calming as it is, and since it uploads very early it is there for me every day as I get ready for work. What a great way to start my morning. You are a blessing.
Brother, I don't mean to laugh. But as a Louisiana girl, your "Do what?!" at about the 9:10 mark made me laugh. Now I know you are truly from the Carolinas. (North? South? Can't remember.) "Do what?!" is definitely southern slang. Living in Utah for the past 5 years means it's been a loooong time since I've heard "Do what?!" Love it!
@@DW-yq4zn Haha. Now that's funny! I used to do the same when I first moved here. Not so much anymore, but it DOES come out once in a while at the most outlandish things.
Hey Justin! Thank you for covering this! I grew up in a Baptist Church in Canada, and was baptized at 9 years old. I thought I was saved, but I remember doubting my salvation and asking Jesus to save me every time I got in big trouble - even at age of 12! I didn’t understand true salvation. I didn’t actually get saved until I was 24 years old. I chose to be baptized about two years later as a confession of my faith in Christ and my desire to follow Him the rest of my life. By the grace of God He has been sanctifying me ever since! Keep on doing what you’re doing brother, to the glory of God! 🙌🏻
@@Charles.Wright ...i don't know why you are admonishing me , Charles : it's Justin Peters that you need to be talking to about the Methodism of Salvation ; I mean...have you heard what his Reformed Church teaches ?? You will be shocked - no Believing at all on our part at all , the Lord just Swoops down into the Life and does it all : Absolutely the Truth . ...So contact Justin Peters and John MaCarther and tell them one has to Believe something : GOOD LUCK!
@@Charles.Wright ... I've said this already on another Thread here...but it bears repeating : No one has ever gotten Saved... Healed...or received an answer to Prayer in the Reformed Church : because they teach that you don't need Faith ! ( God just does all these things Randomly when He feels like it ... ) Why do you think Justin is stuck in that Wheelchair ... and will be for life?? It's because he is waiting for God to heal him : and it ain't never gonna happen - NEVER NEVER NEVER !
@@singingtomycat1724 "…salvation is by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone as recorded in Scripture alone for the glory of God alone. " That is copied from the Justin Peters Ministries website. So, yes they do believe faith is necessary. Also, God heals who HE chooses to heal; we do not get to tell God what to do. He does His will which may or may not involve healing.
When in the youth group years ago we were all 13-14 years old. One Sunday the majority of the guys decided together it was time to go up front and asked to be saved, but I didn't go. I wasn't feeling it and could just follow them up there, but I just wasn't ready and I don't think any of them were either. I waited until I felt like I understood what it means and went up one Sunday alone, hard as it was(being alone) it just felt right. And today I am 43, have learned a lot since my mid 30's that just being dunked under water means nothing if you don't actually give your soul to God and try to live by his word. I am by NO means even close to what God asks of us, but I try to let my decisions and way of life be his path. And I try very hard to listen !!
@jamesmiddleton660 Well said but remember this: The immature christian says, Lord, I want to live my life for you. The MATURE christian says, Lord I want you to live your life through me. NOBODY should be walking down an aisle to get saved and should NEVER trust their feelings. God warns us not to use them. They are unstable and change from minute to minute. Like water baptism: it is an outward sign of an inward faith. The bible says, it is an answer of a good conscience towards God. It doesn't have to be public, but it can be, if you want it that way. It's still between you and God. Anyway, your story is well taken. Wait on the Lord for answers in your everyday walk, but as for your knowledge, Study to show yourself approved unto God..... Rightly dividing the word of truth. You come to God because God Calls you to himself. Everyone was born spiritually DEAD. A dead person can not call out to God. YOU had nothing to do with it. That is why we thank him for saving us. He did it all. He is the Author and Finisher of our faith. So again, we had nothing to do with it. Listen to Real teachers, but the best one is the spirit himself, matching scripture with scripture. Happy Reading.
I don’t know how I’m just finding this channel after years of research into the watchtower? I’m very happy I found it today!! I’m close to convincing my father he’s in a cult. It’s been a long hard painful battle 💔 5 more disgusting pedophiles were arrested in Pennsylvania again today. Last year 5 were convicted on the other side of the state, this time there’s some in Allegheny county in Pittsburgh where we live. Hopefully this will help open his eyes 🙏🙏
Cults ALWAYS bring the worst in humans. Becauae its a place far away from prying eyes and where the top people are untouchable. And then it sips down to the members. I know. I was born in a cult. Keep fighting the good fight. I pray that the Lord give you cpurage and answer and bless your hard work.
I was baptized at age 8. I would have been baptized at age 5 but my father made sure I really knew what I was doing. I believed I did because I am still a Christian 50 years later and I had many reasons to leave. But I also remember that my sins are forgiven and Jesus is always with me. Yes I have gone through persecution and temptation and I stood firm on the gospel. And I can spot a heresy a mile away. The main person I would go for answers about the truth was my father. He always lead me in the right direction. I miss him so much.
Thank You Justin! Been a Christian for 2 years, and l examine myself as l am told, but your wonderful presentation of The Gospel is something l STILL love to hear! lt talks about Godly sorrow, and l DO believe thats where it all started! ..Out of _seemingly_ nowhere. lt was VERY uncomfortable! Terrifying, is the word! Much love in Jesus to you, and Cathy. ~ Van BC :D
I know what you mean, I was practically a shut in with no social contact and I just started getting these thoughts that if I died that night I'd go to hell (probably started with some health issues). After trying to work my way to heaven by repentance for a few weeks or something I broke down one night and searched online "why can't I repent" and found the Gospel. God is amazing.
I cannot tell you how many times I recommend you to other Christians looking for foundationally solid Biblical teaching. Every single time I get into a conversation about church, scripture, bad churches; I tell them to listen to you and I also tell them to read Jim Osman's books as well!
Thank you, Justin. I know a lot about Beth Redding but had never seen any of their "baptisms." Thank you for being willing to call wolves wolves. You gave a beautiful presentation of the gospel, from such a heartfelt place of speaking the truth in love. May God bless you and use you mightily to protect people from the damning insanity of Bethel.
Anything I have ever heard about or seen in regards to Bethel has always given me a disturbed and eerie feeling inside. Something is definitely not right with this group. Thanks for the video, Justin. I did not know this in regards to their 'baptisms.'
Amazing how you find these videos at the exact time you need them. This is a year old, and I'm just seeing it now. Lately, I've been tormented by the thought that I may be sifted among the tares on judgement day. I'm afraid that the Lord will say He never knew me. This terrifies me because I know there is no other way. He is my only hope. I feel this because there are sins I struggle with. Private sins that involve only me and a computer. The sorrow I feel is not related to being found out. I admit my struggle. My heart is ripped apart by the mere fact that I keep going back there. That isn't who I want to be, and I feel like I can't escape. Your closing comments are exactly what I needed right now.
Thank you Justin!!! This greives my heart knowing that this place exists and that they are truly Wolfs in sheeps clothing. One of our Pastors just shared about the teachings of "Bethel church" tonight and shared about what these men teach, including kenneth Copeland. Oh Jesus Remove the Vail. PLEASE KEEP THESE VIDEOS COMING
I'm so Proud of Justin Peters for his work uncovering False Teachers, something critical to Salvation. You have inspired myself to reach out and debate all of the False Teachers on the Internet. They are everywhere! Most seem to be Roman Catholic. I pray every day that, I'm doing the Right Thing, GOD' Will. I used to be a Catholic until I, actually studied the Catechism, the Official Doctrines and the History of the Church. I left 7 years ago when, the History and Doctrine demanded it. It became so absolutely Clear how Pagan they were from the very beginning with a Bloody History for very many Centuries that came from within the Catholic Church and not without. My Family was upset that I left however, I feel Blessed in my Evangelical Church. You attended My Church last year. North Weymouth Baptist Church, Ma. Great Blessing to see you in person. GOD Bless!
Thank you, Justin for exposing Bill Johnson's Bethel Church. Your videos on YT were what brought my husband and I back to Reformed Theology. I grew up in the Presbyterian church but strayed away to the Charismatic church for many years, including The Foursquare Church. We've been in Reformed Christian churches for over 8 years now. A few years ago, we infiltrated Bethel Church in Redding, CA where they were in the middle of a conference. We wanted to see if it was a NAR church or not. We didn't have to wonder very long as we drove up that palatial promenade where we saw media interviewing attendees outside so we went inside the "campus" building (I can't call it a church). We felt very uncomfortable after entering this place but I believe we made the demons in there even more uncomfortable. We were chased out of the sanctuary (just went in the look for the Glory Cloud); I was chased out of even going into the Women's restroom and there were many signs on doors leading to off limit no go zones. We were able to go into the bookstore so we looked for what Christian authors might be on the shelves, along with the Bibles they sold. There were no Spurgeon, Watson, MacArthur or anything from the best Theologians of old or new. So we tried to find ANY Bible they were selling. The only thing they had to offer was Brian Simmons, "The Passion Bible" which isn't a Bible at all! It's his personal interpretation of the NT. I would not trust a Bible version done by one person without oversight. We did look into a conference room where they were teaching attendees how to learn to do miracles. We couldn't get out of there fast enough but I did lay my hands on a wall and prayed that the Holy Spirit would convict them of their heresy before we left the premises.
... Whom do you personally Know & Trust ...that Translated the King James Bible into English,Debbi ?? ...you don't know anyone...do you... ...so why do you put that condition of Acceptance onon the Bible you saw at Bethel , you Hippo Crit ?
I'm from Mt.Shasta CA. Only an hour away from Redding I can't believe this blasphemous monstrosity is in my back yard. I pray in Jesus name that all the "teachers" and memebers at Bethel Church will Repent and truly find their way to God through Christ! Thank you I pray in Jesus name Amen.
Tech Tip Justin: You want to "normalize" your video tracks to synchronize the audio levels. It's like turning the internal volume up or down based on a set level.
Love and thank God for the boldness He has given you in His service brother Peter's. You are an example to all of God's children to continue to stand for truth...no matter what! Also thankful that God placed it on your heart to have "daily Bible" readings. They are indeed a blessing. Keep pressing on brother. May God bless you and Kathy. Love y'all lots in the Lord.
Thank you Justin for posting this, and for your commentary and godly concern. It really is heartbreaking. I am afraid Bethel has stretched it's nefarious tentacles far and wide . May the Lord have mercy.
I was raised in an Adventist church that kicked my family out for not placing Ellen G. White equal with Christ. These false teachings just as the ones you are exposing hurt many people. Thank you for telling the truth.
@@XiaLian Yes, they do.I grew up in the church. My parents were KICKED OUT of the church for refusing to place EGW FIRST. I know what the truth is. It is cult underneath the veneer plain and simple.
@@dawntreader815 I also grew up as a SDA and that never happen, so don't make your experience as a generality because many SDA don't see her much more that a prophete, some people don't considere her as well. It aslo depend from which country where you are from.
That’s absolutely ridiculous. Ellen White equal to Jesus. That has never been taught. This is false information and a figment of someone’s imagination.
Thank you Justin Peters for being brave enough to call out these false teachings. I have followed you for a bit and so far you are clearly teaching the truth. Than you!
Amen, Brother! I am so glad there is finally a solid, down to earth, practical and intellectual man of God, such as you! I was raised in a Baptist Church, but foolishly left for one of these charismatic ones, I cursed myself for doing this, the more I attended, the more sucked in I got, suddenly speaking in tongues wasn't enough, eventually I had to prophecy, give testimony, usually based off of sensationalism, or "how I felt". Usually involved tons of so called praise and worship, to "get us in the mood or spirit" lots of falling down, yelling, running around, crying hysterically, shaking etc. I can tell you since I left, I got re acquainted with gospel truth I will never get involved with a movement such as this ever again, most of these charismatic churches are inter involved with each other, and sadly they are all (it seems) getting involved with behaviours such as this, this is really a big movement in Developing nations right now, Africa, The Philippines etc. Evangelists will often come as guest speakers after weeks oversees saying tons of people are being raised from the dead (why then does it never happen here?) or any credible news sources report on it? *exept their own internal reports which again based usually on sensationalism! Amen again bro!
I always appreciate your heart, Brother Justin. It's so clear that you make these videos and expose these false teachers/false teachings because you care about the people being deceived. And even about those doing the deceiving. May there be conviction and repentance!
While I don’t attend Bethel currently, I do want to mention that when I was baptized at Bethel I had to attend a one hour class prior to the baptism so while I can’t speak to the examples you gave, I just wanted to say there is more than what’s shown on the stage.
Thankyou Justin for standing for the truth! Watching this video was so hard, it was both sickening and saddening to see, especially the first few ‘testimonies’ at how the young women looked drunk , getting drunk in the spirit is so unbiblical. One thing I will say is you said a number of times they have the same bible. A lot of those folk probably only read the Passion ‘translation’ and that I wouldn’t never call a bible.
Looks like you have chosen a new idol Kristy, HE stands for Truth, really? He is human, that makes him fallible AND a sinner just like me and you. Want the TRUTH? comes from only ONE place, Jesus.
Salvation only comes through repentance and faith in the person and finished work of Christ! Not because you profess to love Jesus, ask Jesus into your heart, or had some spiritual encounter. Faith in the GOSPEL is what saves.
@@caroleimani9754 But we MUST know what the Biblical Gospel is: Christ's death, burial & resurrection which paid for our sins. Prophesied in Scripture & defined succinctly in 1 Cor. 15:1-4
My daughter and her family go to a church in Redmond Oregon that closely follows the same doctrine that Redding Bethel church does. My 5 and 6 year old grandchildren were baptized last year. My daughter and her husband are following Charlie Shamp to Nepal in March to evangelize! I’m praying for the Lord to open their eyes.
God bless you real good my brother. Thanks so much for helping me grow in my daily walk with God. I sincerely appreciate your daily reading of the word of God . MORE GRACE.
What !! Are they serious ?? OMG !! If someone had told me this I would’ve thought it was a joke, that’s not the reason one should be baptized and the pastor isn’t even correcting them, God have mercy on us
I had a sort of 'tongues aint real' type experience with baptism. I was baptised as a Mormon as a kid, as my mother was trying to keep up appearances during that time. The whole event was covered in ceremony, and I had no idea what I was doing. All I knew is that when I got baptised I was supposed to feel overwhelmed with joy and the Holy Spirit. Instead what I got was the somewhat frightening experience of all of the adults making a giant fuss, followed by 20 years of atheism. Been hoping to get a proper baptism some time soon. Last couple years since I was saved have been a 40 years in the wilderness sort of thing, not yet found a church. Living in an atheist country means I've pretty much been stuck to UA-cam pastors.
There is a good church where you can be baptized, sir. Dustin Benge used to preach there. I'll look up the church and give you the name and town. Just reply to this post, so I'll get a bell and can easily respond. God bless you!
Love your Godly teaching Justin. I praise our dear Lord that their still is a remnant of the body of Christ. Thankyou for warning people. May their ears be open to the Truth. God bless you. 🙏🙏🙏
I have been a charismatic / continuationist for 29 years now and have been in pastoral ministry for the last 17 years. I began speaking out against these False teachers several years ago and have lost many relationships because of it. What scares me the most is how intensely they come against me when I "dare to speak out against the man of God," but none of them can defend their teaching. I have even had several pastors admit that they cannot defend the teaching, but they are committed to the "miraculous thing happening there." Watching people who I know have been taught Biblical truth, and people who I have learned from over the years, so easily snowballed by false teaching that should be so obvious to them is the saddest thing I have encountered during my time in ministry. On the bright side, I have been able to open the eyes of multiple people who have woken up to this nonsense. Blessing on you Justin for the work you do.
...very Impressive with your Resume ; Justin Peters says that God has called him to be a Crippled Preacher : so He will NEVER heal Justin Peters. ... Do you agree with Justin Peters' statement , Charismatic Preacher ??
@@singingtomycat1724 I think Justin has the absolutely correct view on his condition. I have had the opportunity to meet Justin briefly. Do I think that God will never heal him is not a very good question. The better question would be, "can God heal Justin," and the answer is yes. But God is not bound to our will or desires. We are bound to His. So, in that light, if God decides to heal Him, he will, but if He decides not to heal him, then Justin will minister for the rest of his earthly days as he is. But, at the end of his days, when he is called home, he will spend eternity fully healed and in a new glorified body. As Justin has said many times, spending the rest of his life crippled is fine with him if it serves the Lord because he will have the rest of eternity to enjoy his glorified body. In the end, the choice to heal or not heal belongs to the Lord.
... We can't treat the things of God that way , Brother ...saying such as , " oh well...if God wants to Save me He can - I will just sit around and let Him come and Save me when He is good & Ready to do it . " Would you have any words of admonition for the Person who talked like that , Pastor ? I'm sure you would ! Our Salvation has be be received by a Conscience choice of the person , Right !? Well it is the same with the Divine Healing of our bodies; WE have to do something about it - it isn't just going to fall on us like Ripe Cherries fall of a tree on our head. So Justin Peters will never be healed if he is waiting for God to it ... just like a Soul will never be Saved if they are in the same way waiting for God to Save him. ...You should know better than that, Pastor : I'm glad I'm not a member of the Church you have - nobody will ever get healed in there...
@@singingtomycat1724 Interesting, so is that why Bill wears glasses, why his wife had cancer... because they haven't done anything about it. Let me know the next time you go into a hospital and heal everyone there with your divine powers, until then I will lean on the sovereignty of God and trust His will in my life. You obviously have no idea what you are talking about, and it is pretty obvious that you didn't understand anything I wrote. By the way, I have had many healings in my church, and we see people coming to Christ regularly.
@@bluecollartheologypodcast ...you make such weak arguments , Pastor...you would have been better off pointing out all the people in the Gospels that asked Jesus to heal them ... and He said , " No " . There aren't any He said No to, are there?? But now, according to you... Jesus refuses to Heal quite often ...something is wrong - He is not the Same Jesus . I base my faith on what the Written word Says...not what Bill Johnson does or doesn't do ( That would be Walking by Sight) . ... Ok , The Hospital - When Doctors come to our Churches and Perform Heart Transplants in our buildings...i will gladly return the favor, and go into their Operating Rooms and conduct Healing Services.
THANKYOU Dear Brother for exposing falsehoods which are not biblical❗️ - We ALL are obligated to do the same. THANKYOU Jesus for this faithful Brother! 🕊✝️🙏🏼
When I got baptized by immersion, I gave a testimony similar to those at Bethel because I was kinda scared and I was also at a loss of words. The real reason I seek to be baptized was because, in my studying of the Bible, I discovered that repentance is supposed to come before baptism and a sister in Christ showed me the verses that justify baptism by full immersion.
Yes repentance is supposed to come before baptism, but we are supposed to beleive and then repent. But for some people it is a slow fade from their old life. The bible gives us the example of the eunich for a reason! He beleived and then was baptized...in a puddle! Baptism is just a publicnproclamation that you beleive that Jesus Christ died for your sins, and was raised on the 3rd day and that He is our Lord and Savior and will return again to make the whole world new! There's no "right time" or a reason to wait to be baptized. As soon as you beleive be baptized!
@@TinkerBell-bt6vu Thank you for that. A good few years ago, I used to only think about God the father. I started to worry that everyone else at church was focusing on Jesus. I knew I was lacking in my belief. I believed that Jesus is God, the Son, But didn’t focus on His importance so much. One day I had these thoughts come to me and it felt like I was being given them rather than my normal thinking. The thoughts were illustrating Jesus as being like the hub of a bicycle wheel where Jesus is the centre, the hub by which everything revolves and comes from. Years later, the November before last, I finally believed that Jesus died for me and I believed His blood was shed for me. I also confessed my secret sins To God especially that I had been wanting to keep a bit of my sin up until then, but no longer wanted any of them. I felt the love of Christ and again a few weeks or a couple of months later but even stronger especially the belief that Christ died and shed His blood for me. For a few months lately though, I have been worried that I feel feelingless. I don’t feel any kind of feelings. I have been hanging on to the character of Christ and trusting in His faithfulness. I started to worry when Justin Peters talked about Godly sorrow as opposed to worldly sorrow, but I think I can only feel worldly sorrow. I do remember when I first believed, that I didn’t want to sin against Christ rather than just not be found out. Will Godly sorrow increase as time goes bye?
This verse convicted me along with many others that we shouldn’t be flippantly “following” or teaching God’s word if we aren’t operating in His spirit, repenting , and seeking His will alone. Our hearts are deceitfully wicked to the point of being dangerous to trust in. God is the only good, infallible judge to trust in. Dear Lord please help us to see our error and sin and come humbly to you for your forgiveness and provision and denying ourselves and taking up our crosses in Jesus name amen. 🙏 Luke 12:48: But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more. (Those given much will be expected much and if we fail to do what God required there will be even more severe punishment and judgement)
I was recently severely reprimanded by the elders of the church where we were attending for teaching against false teachers and teachings including Bethel, Hillsong, & Elevation churches. I was stunned. My wife & I have left that church.
That church and those elders especially are NOT about obeying God’s word! So glad you and your wife left! Being severely reprimanded for doing what God commands is ALARMING!
I was involved in that for many years and got out several years ago. Painful but necessary! If you get a chance...check out the book (I listened to it on Audible) "Counterfeit Kingdom"....it is so thorough on this subject...Justin always does a great job too
the truth hurts, that is why
The pastors and elders will be giving account for these wicked deeds and leading people in the false way.
That's a great litmus test for your next church! Never stop rightly dividing the word of truth! 2 Timothy 2:15
I was baptized at Bethel church in my home country when I was 12, along with my brother and 3 cousins. Never been asked why I want to be baptized, never understand the meaning of baptism. At that time my parents just came to faith, they got baptized and wanted their children to be baptized too. 2 of my cousins that baptized with me left christianity. I left that church long time ago and found a church that teach the true Gospel. All praise to God!
And you think is only that church?
@@deanhyman8622 ??? What does this mean?
@@QuietlyContemplating I know there are many more churches do the same, baptizing just to add the number of so called believer
Nobody told me or taught me about Baptism. As a brand new convert with a hunger for our Triune God I discovered it in the Bible. I began to research it and concluded that it was an act of obedience that cemented my relationship with Jesus. This baptism was the buriel of the old man. Praise God that arising from the water I was now alive in Christ. The Scriptures opened up. What an exciting and chastising journey I began. Parenting changed...marriage changed...and behold everything became new. Thank You Father for your love. Thank you Jesus for your love and obedience to Your Father and the undeserved gift of Salvation and thank You Holy Spirit for being ever present and always helpful every minute of the day. Thank you Ps.Peters for your guidance. I trust many lives are rescued and put on the right path. Have you a sermon on Baptism /s?
Baptism without salvation is just getting wet.
My daughter was baptised when she was 6. She asked to be baptised so I told her she had to be mature enough to ask the pastor. He came back to me looking shaken. She asked him herself and he asked why she wanted to be baptised. She said because I want to live in christs resurrection power!!! She died a few years later. She knew the Lord

She knew the Lord!
Thank you for your work. I learn so much from you. God bless.⚔️🛡️⚔️🔥
All children go to God whether they know Him or not. You will see your daughter again, finish well friend, He is coming soon.
Wow. God bless you and your family.
Exactly! Thank you Bro. Justin! I was one of those children baptized at eight years old and put faith and confidence in that baptism for 30 years. Raised in a SBC church and never once did anyone explain salvation or why a person needs to be saved! Please continue your hard work. People need to see and hear this. Not only Bethel but all so called churches that do not preach and teach the Truth! Thank you for the love you have for the souls of men! Love you and pray for you my Brother!
Like you, I was born / raised in an SBC church. In the 4th grade I went down front during the altar call at a citywide crusade in my town. I didn't know WHY I went down. And it was actually my pastor's wife that "counseled" me there. She never asked WHY I was there, or WHAT I believed I had done. Next thing I know my uncle is so happy about me being there that I just didn't ask any questions. He was so proud of me...for something?! Next thing I know after that I'm getting baptized at church. Once again, no questions, no counseling, nothing. It would be another 5 years before God was able to get me to see that I hadn't done anything, and I then surrendered my life to Christ.
So sad that an SBC church doesn't even know how to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Good for you that your church decided not to use their songs. My church uses those songs and I’m not a fan simply because the music is awful!
My wife and I were convicted to do the same thing. Firstly, I left the worship band after 5 years, shared my convictions with the worship band and pastor, and initially, everyone acted like they cared about the issues that I presented them. After providing tons of evidence as to why we should walk away from the heretical teachings of hillsong, bethel, etc., my stance essentially had little to no impact on the direction my old church would take. No bueno. I walked away.
Thanks. Personally I love early Hillsong United Australia under Darlene. However, Hillsong United New York is questionable. I listen to and praise along in my personal praise, but in a Church service standards to doctrine and Scripture truths must be upheld.
Amen! Praise God :)
Better throw out David's psalms considering his heinous sins!
Despite a lifetime in Southern Baptist church, involved in many varied ministry activities, I have come to realize that I was yet woefully pride-filled and wicked. I’m 61, and although I have always identified as a Christian, I hid my sins, embraced new age lies, and only experienced worldly grieving.
I had never truly admitted just how vile my sinful heart has always been, and just how much my wickedness has grieved our LORD until I began to consume your series and truly humble myself in His Word.
Because of your tough brotherly love, I have for the first time experienced conviction by the Holy Spirit. Although I in no way deserve it, I finally now understand the depth of sacrifice Jesus made on the cross for me. While many might now see me as broken - I have MS and given up worldly prosperity - I rejoice daily because His grace is sufficient, His mercies soften my old heart, and His Word feeds my soul.
Thank you, dear brother, and may God bless you and your ministry. Your boldness in Christ had helped me to hear my Master’s call and turn me from the wide path to destruction. Praise God!!!
Praise God for His love and faithfulness to you. Hallelujah! 🙏♥️
Now THAT’S a testimony, unlike the ones in the video ❤ I too was baptized at a very early age and the only thing I remember is that I wanted to make my dying grandmother happy. I hated going to church, felt no conviction over disobeying my parents, over my rebellious heart, nothing. I am more grateful than I can say that the Lord is so long suffering and merciful to me.

Thank you for this teaching Justin, I pray that people in Bethel see this video and the Holy Spirit opens their eyes and they truly turn to Jesus our saviour.

It is heartbreaking indeed and yes, may it please the true Lord to set His heart on them and save them, because if they die in this condition, they will be in for quite a shock on Judgment day when they stand before Him and hear Him say to them, "I never knew you! Depart from me, you workers of iniquity!", and then be thrown into the lake of fire, also known as Hell, where they will suffer everlasting punishment and be separated from His presence with absolutely no hope of escape.
I came out of Bethel after I started their ministry school. The list of what was wrong with the teaching is too long to type. My family still attends Bethel. They won’t watch these videos or listen to me share my concerns. Please pray that they come out of this church. Also I have learned from this video that I’m not sure if I’m truly saved. After Bethel I just quit going to church. I think they are a cult but haven’t heard the word preached like it was in this video. Thank you for opening my eyes I now need to reevaluate my whole life’s beliefs.
God bless you. I pray God guides you to a church that teaches sound Biblical doctrine that you can call home. Hugs to you and I am so glad God has drawn you away from the heretical teachings of Bethel Church. Prayers for your family and do not cease praying for them. ❤️✝️
I don’t agree with that church ! Please keep your position about Bethel! But, with love, keeping praying for your family and PLEASE FIND A REALL CHRISTIAN CHURCH and do not stay without going to church !
If you are not truly sure that you are saved you can be! Read Romans 10:9-13 and do as it says. Also read the gospel of John and pay close attention to every passage where the Lord Jesus tells how to be born again by Believing In Him. John 3:16, 36; 6:47 and many many more like First John 5:13, and Acts 13:38-39. I am praying for you and your family.

Amen Justin! I have had the same problem with my church: they baptize kids at 5, 6, 7 years old without even finding out if they really understand what baptism and being saved means. It makes no sense. When I was about 8 years old, I wanted to get baptized because some of my oldest siblings were, not because I knew what it meant. I thank God that my mom and dad had enough discernment to tell me no.
My church literally bribed us as children. We were given a toy if we came up to the microphone and recited a verse (without understanding its meaning) and/or if we 'Asked Jesus into our heart', as it always goes. Obviously we didn't know what that was about either. That was our evangelical experience, and then we were simultaneously Roman Catholic, i you can fathom that - and we had both of those false systems bumping up against each other - all the while understanding basically none of it, whether good, bad or neutral.
Thank you for saying that! My seven-year-old wanted to get baptized and he professed belief at six years old. But during the same interaction at church that day when he asked to get baptized he was also yelling at me because he couldn’t get a doughnut from the donut table. So yeah, I’m so thankful I told him no he could not get baptized that he needs to be a little older to understand it better😂
We are not the fruit detector, if a person professes Christ they should be baptized. And you then hold a person to their profession.
My church baptizes based on the faith of their parents or their own mature confession if they are older. The sign of the old covenant was applied irrevocably to children at 8 days old.
@@trentenmeyer4513 If you are a pastor who will receive stricter judgement by God for being in that position, should you not concern yourself as to whether or not you are creating false converts?
Someone could answer “ I’m being baptized today because my date fell through and I didn’t have anything else to do tonight so… I thought I’d just come down and get baptized”
The so called Pastor would say “PERFECT “!
😂😂 and the crowd went wild
I was baptized in a Pentecostal church that I used to go to when I was younger. Even there I had to talk to the pastor before I decided to get baptized, read the Bible and answer the questions to make sure I understood what baptism was. That was more than 10 years ago. I think today's baptism became like a potion that will make your life better and people are falling for that.

Justin, were these people being baptized in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit? Many new converts are not well versed in baptismal theology. They are babes in Christ. What does Bill Johnson actually teach about baptism?
@@thegospelpeacemakersforum7805 these folks are saying things like "to be a warrior for the animal kingdom". That is legit absolutely nutso. Baptism is an outward expression of what happens on the inside when we're spiritually regenerated.
Bethel is leading many to hell because they are responsible for so many false converts.
Sometime between (1834-1892) - Charles H. Spurgeon said this.
“A time will come when instead of shepherds feeding the sheep, the church will have clowns entertaining the goats.”
And almost 2,000 years ago 2 Timothy was written.
And in 2 Timothy Chapter 4 v 3-4, it does say this.
3 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;
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
@@thegospelpeacemakersforum7805 you should also watch a video on their fire tunnels. Bethel is a cult.
Yes, the testimony about being a warrior for animals is looney tunes and should have been corrected. The other testimony about getting closer to Jesus is something that I have heard numerous times in Baptist churches, Calvary chapels etc. There was nothing wrong with that. Not any doctrinal depth but again, these are new converts. Does Justin expect them to recite about baptism from the Westminster catechism? I also dispute his contention that all of these baptismal candidates aren't really saved. The animal warrior lady probably isn't but is he God who knows the secrets of the hearts of all these new converts? Peters is usually right on but this is not one of his better videos.
My husband thinks he is saved, but he hasn't changed. I pray for him. But no one knows what I'm going through in this marriage. Pray for me. That God will strengthen me and make a way for me from abuse.

@@kishredbird3599why would it not be God’s will to heal?
@@FluffyMustache it is, in His own way and according to His purpose. There's tons of devout and Godly people who have afflictions, including the apostle Paul. Healing doesn't always come in the conventional way or even in this life. Similar to the teachings of Kenneth Copeland, it's sometimes implied or even said that a healing not taking place comes from a lack of faith. Gods sovereignty is almost completely wiped out of the equation. The one thing we need to understand is that God's grace is sufficient for us.
Thank you for exposing false teachers, Eph. 5:11
I spent 20+/- yrs in a church similar to this. I always knew there were things being taught that were wrong but I stayed. I had gone through some very traumatic events prior to going there. I see now that people who go through trauma are drawn into these emotional "churches". Only after studying my Bible did I realize that I was following false doctrine. Before I left I voiced my thoughts but I knew they weren't listening. I was told I'm angry, hateful, etc. Nonetheless, I left. I feel a burden has been lifted. I am now in a Bible based church growing in the word of God. Thank you for trying to wake people up.
ditto!!!
I was raised under a ministry for 25 years that taught WOF, prosperity and new age teaching. I was being trained to become a pastor by the leadership who where close family friends to us. Some of these leaders were personal friends of people like Oral and Kenneth. One day the lights kicked on by the grace of God and I instantly felt like something was wrong. I started checking the Bible against all the teaching I was receiving and realized it was all being pulled out of context. Fast forward 3 years and I am still undoing the immense damage that was done. I basically had to follow the regimen they use for people coming out of a cult. Retraining everything you believe. I can assure you as well, it is very hard to talk someone out of leaving these places because to them your talking them away from God. I've found its subtle nudges of truth that eventually find their way in. For me it was the realization when someone showed me the passion translations horrible inaccuracies. My heart breaks for all these people and we cannot give up on them. Lord open their eyes to the truth that we share with them.
The Lord caused me to be born again when I was 22. I was definitely saved but got caught up in Bethel teaching for a few years. It brought such rotten fruit into my family. Because Bethel does not teach the Bible I was not pointed to the scripture on my role as a wife and a mother. My heart grieves because I cannot get that time back with my oldest son but I trust in the Lord! Bethel kept me focused on what amazing thing God was going to do with me. I sought out speaking on stages instead of being a mother. God is merciful and I am raising my youngest son, being submissive to my husband and enjoying my little guy as we homeschool! Praying for my oldest because I can’t get back that time in his teenage years when he should’ve been getting sound doctrine. But God is faithful.

SALVATION: To clarify the gospel of our salvation: Our gospel that saves us today is to believe that Jesus died on the cross, shedding His blood, was buried and rose from the dead for the forgiveness of our sins. I Cor 15:1-4. That's step one. Step two: We must put our trust in this gospel for the forgiveness of our sins and nothing else, to be saved. It's that simple. Jesus did the work necessary for our salvation. We cannot. Paul puts it this way: Eph 1:13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, True salvation only comes when we believe that Jesus is our ALL SUFFICENT SAVIOR. We cannot add anything to His blood shed and work of salvation on the cross for the forgiveness of our sins. We are not saved by repenting (turning from sin), being baptized in water, walking an aisle, saying a prayer, confessing with your mouth, being “born again”, or following Jesus’ earthly ministry. Those are mostly "works" salvation. We are saved by grace, not works (Rom 11:6), through faith alone, in Christ work on the cross. It is a gift 100%. Rom 3:24 KJV Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Titus 3:5-6, I Cor 15:1-4 Rom 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. He came to save sinners, not people trying to make themselves righteous by doing some kind of good work, getting wet or turning from their sins, they cannot do totally anyway. Simply believe and put your trust in the new gospel Jesus gave to Paul for us today to be saved by. Then start reading Rom - Phil to understand what was written to us the body of Christ, so we could know what God wants from us and who we are in Christ, once we are saved. The books Paul wrote are the only place we find the gospel that saves us today. Then read the rest of your bible that is FOR us but not TO and ABOUT us. 94% of the bible is TO and ABOUT Israel, yes Israel. Don’t steal their mail and try to make it yours. And don’t be fooled by people who tell you, you need to do some good work to be saved or to stay saved or to prove that you are saved. That is not the gospel for us today which is a free gift of GRACE when we believe and trust in what Jesus did on the cross for our sins. Eph 2:8 KJV For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Eph 2:9 KJV Not of works, lest any man should boast.
If children die before the age of accountability they go straight to God no matter what faith they were born into.
After the age of accountability a person then will go one way or the other.
@@usernametaken6659 sir do u have the bible verse for that? i keep thinking about this for my children, im not a good person, im not read bible everyday, but i want to know, thank you
@@cepusbingbong7699 none are good but God.
In exodus, you see that people 20 and above must give tribute to the Lord. In numbers 32 we see people 20 and above did not get to enter the peomised land for their disobedience.
2 samuel 12:22 king david in speaking of his dead son says he will go to him.
So scripture seems to indicate one is responsible and accountable from age 20 and up.
@@fredthe47th so babies go to hell do they?
And yes, there is enough scripture to support what I said above.
Amen to the fact the Holy Spirit leads His children to truth. I am proof of that. I was led to solid teachers like John MacArthur, Paul Washer, Alistair Begg, etc over 25 years ago when I didn’t understand how much I needed the truth. Now you are making me understand the difference between what I came out of by the grace of God and what the Word of God actually says. Thank you
Run from washer and MacArthur. They teach false doctrine.
The three you named, along with Justin Peters and the late David Pawson and Charles Spurgeon, they are/were the BEST!
Amen, me too. When I was a young teen I used to watch Sid Roth and all kinds of crazy testimonies of people going to heaven, speaking to angels, etc. and grew up around hyper charismatics. I believe I was saved then since I understood and believed the gospel, and fairly quickly the Lord led me to sound, biblical preaching. The Lord will lead His children to the truth!
Doesn’t it just make you jump for joy to know how the Lord leads His own even when you don’t have local solid Biblical teaching. I live in a small city in Oklahoma and there are no strong Bible based churches for us to connect with.
McArthur needs to read the Bible. Especially the New Testament. I have read his study Bibles but threw them out when I read in his own study Bible that he does not believe in healing. Healing is a part of the atonement.
McArthur teaches law not grace !
So let's all quit pointing fingers!!
Thankfully my son who applied to attend the Bethel school of supernatural ministry in California saw the red flag during his interview with the school representatives. The nature of the questions posed to him were extremely personal. He also realised that having to pay people ( thousands of dollars) to enable him to learn about spiritual gifts ( which in apostolic times were presented free of charge) was a somewhat corrupt and false form of ministry.
It's a school not a charity any school in North America will cost thousands of dollars.
I'm in a private bible college in Ontario, the government helps me but it's still around $1400 per course credit similar to any college course in the province.. if you want a free education buy a library card and cut the complaining
How much does it cost to pay qualified professionals who hold a PhD, how much is rent for the building , how to pay support staff? What about the bills? Your comment is insane and out of touch with reality, 21 thumbs up with people who can't use common sense ,do you work for free? Do you ask for wages at your job?
But they haven't accredited by any sanctioning body...
@@llllllllllllllIIlIllIIllIIIIllSimon the sorcerer tried to pay to get the gifts of the Holy Spirit and was harshly rebuked and told to repent. The gifts of the spirit cannot be taught; they’re given by God. Bethel is a false church. Please read your Bible!
I got saved at 7 years old. I knew who Jesus was and wanted to invite Him into my heart. I repented of my sins and chose to follow Him. Sure I was young, but I stand by that experience. I got baptized when I was a bit older, as my parents wanted to ensure I had complete understanding and more years of wisdom in my faith before being baptized. To this day, I still love and follow Christ. I believe that perhaps it is rare, but children can certainly understand and find Christ.
No He called you and you repented
Thank you so much for preaching the gospel.. Let's pray God will use this video to reach His people at Bethel and other false churches, that their eyes will be opened and they will repent and be saved.
I have never doubted for a moment that bethel is heretical. I just feel sad for all those that they are leading astray. 😞
Bethel = house of God. Farce
Lutheran from Denmark here. As a somewhat distant cousin, so to speak, in the wider protestant family of Christendom, the whole charismatic movement has thankfully not affected us all that much, yet. Geography and religious demographics being contributory factors as well. But it can be found here, of course, along with watered down forms of prosperity gospel and all that.
But even watching from a (still) somewhat safe distance is scary enough. I knew already the havoc it has been wrecking on Latin America, and the broad strokes of it all. But stumbling upon Peters’ videos has been eye-opening indeed.
Despite what differences there might be between us, God bless, and please keep up the good work, this is a common enemy.
Oh my heart is breaking for these little children and people who are under such deception and false teaching. My eyes teared up, and my heart breaks. I am praying for these people, especially these precious children that they will learn the truth and be set free. We just came out of the false church (word of faith 😮) about six months ago. Although we had our eyes opened slowly before that… And praise be to God we are in a good doctrine teaching church now. We are so thankful to be set free out of the deception. We appreciate your videos Justin. We plan to go to your seminar here in Michigan this spring (clouds without water.) and we can’t wait to hear you and support your mission. Our little children also enjoy listening to your teachings.
Be blessed.
Sometime between (1834-1892) - Charles H. Spurgeon said this.
“A time will come when instead of shepherds feeding the sheep, the church will have clowns entertaining the goats.”
And almost 2,000 years ago 2 Timothy was written.
And in 2 Timothy Chapter 4 v 3-4, it does say this.
3 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;
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
false prophets
Jeremiah Chapter 14
14 Then the LORD said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart.
false prophets
I agree, it’s truly heartbreaking. Cry out to God in prayer these false churches and cults will be destroyed and from the ashes the true Gospel will be preached to these lost souls by a qualified and Spirit filled man of God.
Also, I praise our Almighty Lord and Savior for rescuing y’all from those false teachers/motivational speakers who are not preaching the Gospel of Christ to the lost. Most of all I thank and praise Him that y’all are currently in a doctrinally sound, Bible preaching church! Praise God and I’ll pray for y’all. Thank you for sharing your experience. You’re in the perfect place to be taught truth in a biblical way by Justin.
@@keithivey7966 I wish they where clowns they make me laugh, this makes me cry and sad.
unfortunately, many many people are warming church pews on Sundays and are deceived to think they are saved. I should know, I was one of them, before I was actually baptized in the Holy Ghost and Born Again in 2016. I was raised in a Lutheran church, and had NO IDEA who Jesus really was and what He really did. This is happening everywhere :( "Christian" is simply a label now :( I don't even call myself a "Christian". I make sure to differentiate that I am a Born Again servant of the Most High God, and that I have the Spirit of God dwelling inside me. I was mortified when I was actually saved, to think I lived 42 years of life calling myself a "Christian", and thinking I had eternal life, and how many more there were out there like I was :(
@@hismercysavessallysue5927
...you need to talk to Justin Peters; he left the Baptist church ... and preaches Reformed theology now - that says one doesn't have to Believe anything - just kick back and let God save you , SallySue.
Therefore...Nobody ever receives Salvation in Justin's denomination...or get's Healed...nor gets a Prayer answered : because they don't teach that you have to have FAITH ...
Thank you so much Brother Justin Peters for exposing the truth.
Thank you Justin. God bless you abundantly. I used to go to a "big church" with a "famous pastor" mostly because I enjoyed the "worship music". I was there for more than a decade. Thank God, the scales fell from my eyes eventually - same like the apostol Paul. Pandemic worked for me as a time of reflection and I was able to listen sermons from different pastors, I realized how rich is the Bible in teachings and how little I was learning from that church. Long story short, I quit that church and now I go to a small church which is Bible-based and runs weekly community groups where people can get to know each other, pray and study the bible together. God bless you!
God bless you Justin for telling the truth about these false teachers and sharing the truth of the real Gospel of Jesus Christ. ❤❤🙏
Justin Peters these kids will give you a heart attack ..... ua-cam.com/video/s6f7UzN8oGU/v-deo.html
I recommend that folks watch the baptisms that happen every Sunday night at John MacArthur's church, Grace Community Church, and compare that with what happens at Bethel... it's like night and day. You will hear the gospel in their testimonies and it will leave you in tears!
Amen.
Do you have a link?
@@BenPeckover Just do a search for Grace Community church in Sunland, CA...it'll probably be fairly easy to find.
@@rebeccagable9629 Sun Valley, CA. 😊
Amen!
I was being a good Catholic and fasting for lent when the Holy Spirit filled me and I was so heart broken I wept for days I had joy and assurance but the Holy spirit convicted me like I've never felt I tried to fight it because I loved the Catholic church but He didn't allow it Easter was the last mass I participated in I flew to Oregon to see my brother get ordained as a priest but did not participate I doubt I'll be invited back but anyway brother you are 💯% percent right the Spirit of God would not allow anyone He was indwelling to attend that church I know this from personal experience
Check out the channel that I'll list below. It's the best ever. I know this from my own personal experience. 👇

God bless you, Justin Harris! Former Catholic here too!
@@blewis0719 God bless you too family
Then do you still celebrate Christmas And Easter!!! They are too invention of catholic church!!
All my life,i thought i was saved but it seems like I was just confused and deceived. Until few months ago when i started to hunger for the truth,i felt something was missing,i wanted to know God more. I was so much in the darkness that i actually believed all religions serve the same God and that made me start doubting the bible,i was depressed and had so much hatred,i was deeply in the world. I'm so glad i found your channel. It has been a big blessing.
As a balance to the view of kids baptism, my 11 year old became a Christian and fully understands what the gospel is, he truly repented of his sins and was weeping with joy at the grace of god. As his parents we totally knew it was a real conversion. However the testimony he wrote was very brief and only mentioned that he loves Jesus and wants to follow him. So on the face of it he may have seemed to not understand but he really did. Our pastor talked to him before obviously to make sure he understood. I don’t think we should discount the little ones’ faith just cause of their age.
I was hoping that one of these kids who said that they love Jesus was a genuine believer, despite the errors they had been exposed to.
“How much do you have to hate someone to know the truth of the gospel and withhold it from your congregation” (paraphrased) hit hard.
It’s true, these narcissistic mega church pastors only tell you things YOU WANT to hear. That keeps people coming in!!
I enjoyed your presentation of the gospel at the end!
💥As someone who experienced the revival that started in Pensacola.On father's day spread to anaheim, toronto And pasadena in the late 90s, this was A REAL Move of the HolySpirit with signs an wonders brought on by repentance. I lived in CA but did travel to conferences, because of this incredible thing happening I came extremely close to moving to Redding CA so my children could attend Betel Christian school about 20 yrs ago BUT The Lord Jesus had other plans so I needed up moving up north so my children could grow up around family. I later seen from a distance (mostly watching the Todd Bently stuff on internet, an documentary) how the enemy was able to creep in due to pride, ego an the love of money by those in leadership an of course 20 yrs later its worse but please don't assume everyone's experience is fake just like I can't assume everyone's is real (like I used to) Jesus know those truly searching for TRUTH An who truly Love him. SHALOM an Blessings in Jesus name to all True believers 😇🙏
Thank you so much for your great work, dear brother! God used you to open the eyes of my husband and me several years ago, and we pray for you and your ministry every morning. Much love from a sister in Denmark.
How encouraging. Thank you so much, dear sister. Blessings to you and your family :)
Fedt at høre at der er andre danskere som holder fast i bibelen. Der er efterhånden en del frikirker i Danmark hvis højeste mål er at blive en kopi af Bethel church eller Hillsong, og de vil bare have tegn og undere og mange mennesker, og så kommer bibelens sande ord i anden række desværre..................
@@martintorn2303 Vi er meget enige, kan jeg høre. Må Herren velsigne dig, bror!
Thank you for this video. I really like what you said at the end about how it doesn't matter how "sincere" you. It reminded of me of when I was in college and was preparing for a mission trip to LA with the Baptist Student Union of my college. We knew that as part of this trip we were going to take tours of the Mormon Temple and the Hari Krishna temple. One of the leaders got us together and said that he had a very important video that he wanted us to watch in order to prepare for what we were going to see. He pops the VHS into the machine...and "It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown" starts playing. We start giggling, thinking he maybe made a mistake? Nope. He doesn't say a word until the video is over. When it ends we're all wondering WHY he had us watch this? He said that what he wanted us to see in this silly video is how Linus was completely sincere in his belief about the great pumpkin, but he was sincerely wrong. He warned us that we would see a lot of people who were very sincere in their faith in whatever they believed, but they were sincerely wrong. He was right by the way.
I mean.... how would we ACTUALLY know if we are wrong or not? 🤷♂️🤷
Justin… I am not a cessationist.. but your presentation of the gospel was so pure and true and moving… thank you brother… we must be crushed by the weight of our sin and the glory of Christ’s sacrifice.. blessings to you
We were in a church that taught Bethel church teachings for 10 years we no longer there, thank Good for people like you ,teaching truth and exposing deception and through the power of the Holy Spirit revealing truth to those that they want to hear the truth.
Hi, I am trying to find out if a church I am attending is taking bethel law teaching as well. How did you find out their teachings were from bethel?
You are the best @justin Peters ministries. So thankful for you and your hard work 🙌🏼🙏🏼🙌🏼
Hi Justin I just wanted your wisdom to help me understand how we can Identify a church is genuine? What should we be looking for in a church?
I want to thank you so much for making this video. "Churches" like this make people think there is a great revival coming. I see so many people with the notion that we are not under Romans 1 judgment. That there aren't really many false teachers. From charismatic to JW, my town is filled with false churches. With a population of 15K those aren't good odds. Many are hung over on Sunday and attend no church. The remaining ones have chosen false churches.
I will share this video, because people need it. Seems I have put God in a box. Tongues, hearing voices, those are "normal" and expected.
And thank you for your daily Bible reading. I must say that I find your voice very calming as it is, and since it uploads very early it is there for me every day as I get ready for work. What a great way to start my morning. You are a blessing.
Brother, I don't mean to laugh. But as a Louisiana girl, your "Do what?!" at about the 9:10 mark made me laugh. Now I know you are truly from the Carolinas. (North? South? Can't remember.) "Do what?!" is definitely southern slang. Living in Utah for the past 5 years means it's been a loooong time since I've heard "Do what?!" Love it!
My sister in law, who is LDS, lives in Utah and is from NC. She says “Do What” all the time 😂
@@DW-yq4zn Haha. Now that's funny! I used to do the same when I first moved here. Not so much anymore, but it DOES come out once in a while at the most outlandish things.
This is like a game show but is not like a real baptism atmosphere. Thank you for telling us about this.
Hey Justin! Thank you for covering this! I grew up in a Baptist Church in Canada, and was baptized at 9 years old. I thought I was saved, but I remember doubting my salvation and asking Jesus to save me every time I got in big trouble - even at age of 12! I didn’t understand true salvation. I didn’t actually get saved until I was 24 years old. I chose to be baptized about two years later as a confession of my faith in Christ and my desire to follow Him the rest of my life. By the grace of God He has been sanctifying me ever since! Keep on doing what you’re doing brother, to the glory of God! 🙌🏻
...too many folks are showing up here to Bash their former Churches ; this is Not a good report that I am hearing from the Lord's people. ..
@@Charles.Wright
...i don't know why you are admonishing me , Charles : it's Justin Peters that you need to be talking to about the Methodism of Salvation ; I mean...have you heard what his Reformed Church teaches ?? You will be shocked - no Believing at all on our part at all , the Lord just Swoops down into the Life and does it all : Absolutely the Truth .
...So contact Justin Peters and John MaCarther and tell them one has to Believe something : GOOD LUCK!
@@Charles.Wright
... I've said this already on another Thread here...but it bears repeating : No one has ever gotten Saved... Healed...or received an answer to Prayer in the Reformed Church : because they teach that you don't need Faith ! ( God just does all these things Randomly when He feels like it ... )
Why do you think Justin is stuck in that Wheelchair ... and will be for life?? It's because he is waiting for God to heal him : and it ain't never gonna happen - NEVER NEVER NEVER !
@@singingtomycat1724 You need to do some serious repenting, sir.
@@singingtomycat1724 "…salvation is by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone as recorded in Scripture alone for the glory of God alone. " That is copied from the Justin Peters Ministries website. So, yes they do believe faith is necessary. Also, God heals who HE chooses to heal; we do not get to tell God what to do. He does His will which may or may not involve healing.
Thank you Pastor Justin Peters. I will share your ministry with Family and and friends🙏❤️
Thank you so much
When in the youth group years ago we were all 13-14 years old. One Sunday the majority of the guys decided together it was time to go up front and asked to be saved, but I didn't go. I wasn't feeling it and could just follow them up there, but I just wasn't ready and I don't think any of them were either. I waited until I felt like I understood what it means and went up one Sunday alone, hard as it was(being alone) it just felt right. And today I am 43, have learned a lot since my mid 30's that just being dunked under water means nothing if you don't actually give your soul to God and try to live by his word. I am by NO means even close to what God asks of us, but I try to let my decisions and way of life be his path. And I try very hard to listen !!
@jamesmiddleton660 Well said but remember this: The immature christian says, Lord, I want to live my life for you. The MATURE christian says, Lord I want you to live your life through me. NOBODY should be walking down an aisle to get saved and should NEVER trust their feelings. God warns us not to use them. They are unstable and change from minute to minute. Like water baptism: it is an outward sign of an inward faith. The bible says, it is an answer of a good conscience towards God. It doesn't have to be public, but it can be, if you want it that way. It's still between you and God. Anyway, your story is well taken. Wait on the Lord for answers in your everyday walk, but as for your knowledge, Study to show yourself approved unto God..... Rightly dividing the word of truth. You come to God because God Calls you to himself. Everyone was born spiritually DEAD. A dead person can not call out to God. YOU had nothing to do with it. That is why we thank him for saving us. He did it all. He is the Author and Finisher of our faith. So again, we had nothing to do with it. Listen to Real teachers, but the best one is the spirit himself, matching scripture with scripture. Happy Reading.
Thank you for your ministry. When covid started I came across your program and my eyes were opened. Praise the Lord for your ministry.
Covid didn’t’ start’ your government lied and took your rights and you just let them.
I don’t know how I’m just finding this channel after years of research into the watchtower? I’m very happy I found it today!!
I’m close to convincing my father he’s in a cult. It’s been a long hard painful battle 💔 5 more disgusting pedophiles were arrested in Pennsylvania again today. Last year 5 were convicted on the other side of the state, this time there’s some in Allegheny county in Pittsburgh where we live. Hopefully this will help open his eyes 🙏🙏
God works in mysterious ways.!
Amen my Sister!
Cults ALWAYS bring the worst in humans. Becauae its a place far away from prying eyes and where the top people are untouchable. And then it sips down to the members.
I know. I was born in a cult.
Keep fighting the good fight. I pray that the Lord give you cpurage and answer and bless your hard work.
Thank you 🙏
I was baptized at age 8. I would have been baptized at age 5 but my father made sure I really knew what I was doing. I believed I did because I am still a Christian 50 years later and I had many reasons to leave. But I also remember that my sins are forgiven and Jesus is always with me. Yes I have gone through persecution and temptation and I stood firm on the gospel. And I can spot a heresy a mile away. The main person I would go for answers about the truth was my father. He always lead me in the right direction. I miss him so much.
... What a lovely Testimony , Doll House : Thank You for obeying your Parents ( it shows!)
Your father didn't teach you about OIKOS covenant baptism
Thank You Justin! Been a Christian for 2 years, and l examine myself as l am told, but your wonderful presentation of The Gospel is something l STILL love to hear! lt talks about Godly sorrow, and l DO believe thats where it all started! ..Out of _seemingly_ nowhere. lt was VERY uncomfortable! Terrifying, is the word! Much love in Jesus to you, and Cathy. ~ Van BC :D
I know what you mean, I was practically a shut in with no social contact and I just started getting these thoughts that if I died that night I'd go to hell (probably started with some health issues).
After trying to work my way to heaven by repentance for a few weeks or something I broke down one night and searched online "why can't I repent" and found the Gospel.
God is amazing.
I cannot tell you how many times I recommend you to other Christians looking for foundationally solid Biblical teaching. Every single time I get into a conversation about church, scripture, bad churches; I tell them to listen to you and I also tell them to read Jim Osman's books as well!
Thank you, Justin. I know a lot about Beth Redding but had never seen any of their "baptisms." Thank you for being willing to call wolves wolves. You gave a beautiful presentation of the gospel, from such a heartfelt place of speaking the truth in love. May God bless you and use you mightily to protect people from the damning insanity of Bethel.
Anything I have ever heard about or seen in regards to Bethel has always given me a disturbed and eerie feeling inside. Something is definitely not right with this group. Thanks for the video, Justin. I did not know this in regards to their 'baptisms.'
AMEN! Much needed message Justin, may God draw many to Himself through this video.
Amazing how you find these videos at the exact time you need them. This is a year old, and I'm just seeing it now. Lately, I've been tormented by the thought that I may be sifted among the tares on judgement day. I'm afraid that the Lord will say He never knew me. This terrifies me because I know there is no other way. He is my only hope. I feel this because there are sins I struggle with. Private sins that involve only me and a computer. The sorrow I feel is not related to being found out. I admit my struggle. My heart is ripped apart by the mere fact that I keep going back there. That isn't who I want to be, and I feel like I can't escape. Your closing comments are exactly what I needed right now.
🤨Do what!?! Lead an army of angels to protect the animal kingdom! This is so sad. The road to destruction is wide, the path to salvation is narrow.
Thank you Justin!!! This greives my heart knowing that this place exists and that they are truly Wolfs in sheeps clothing. One of our Pastors just shared about the teachings of "Bethel church" tonight and shared about what these men teach, including kenneth Copeland.
Oh Jesus Remove the Vail. PLEASE KEEP THESE VIDEOS COMING
I'm so Proud of Justin Peters for his work uncovering False Teachers, something critical to Salvation. You have inspired myself to reach out and debate all of the False Teachers on the Internet. They are everywhere! Most seem to be Roman Catholic. I pray every day that, I'm doing the Right Thing, GOD' Will. I used to be a Catholic until I, actually studied the Catechism, the Official Doctrines and the History of the Church. I left 7 years ago when, the History and Doctrine demanded it. It became so absolutely Clear how Pagan they were from the very beginning with a Bloody History for very many Centuries that came from within the Catholic Church and not without. My Family was upset that I left however, I feel Blessed in my Evangelical Church. You attended My Church last year. North Weymouth Baptist Church, Ma. Great Blessing to see you in person. GOD Bless!
Thank you, Justin for exposing Bill Johnson's Bethel Church. Your videos on YT were what brought my husband and I back to Reformed Theology. I grew up in the Presbyterian church but strayed away to the Charismatic church for many years, including The Foursquare Church. We've been in Reformed Christian churches for over 8 years now. A few years ago, we infiltrated Bethel Church in Redding, CA where they were in the middle of a conference. We wanted to see if it was a NAR church or not. We didn't have to wonder very long as we drove up that palatial promenade where we saw media interviewing attendees outside so we went inside the "campus" building (I can't call it a church). We felt very uncomfortable after entering this place but I believe we made the demons in there even more uncomfortable. We were chased out of the sanctuary (just went in the look for the Glory Cloud); I was chased out of even going into the Women's restroom and there were many signs on doors leading to off limit no go zones. We were able to go into the bookstore so we looked for what Christian authors might be on the shelves, along with the Bibles they sold. There were no Spurgeon, Watson, MacArthur or anything from the best Theologians of old or new. So we tried to find ANY Bible they were selling. The only thing they had to offer was Brian Simmons, "The Passion Bible" which isn't a Bible at all! It's his personal interpretation of the NT. I would not trust a Bible version done by one person without oversight. We did look into a conference room where they were teaching attendees how to learn to do miracles. We couldn't get out of there fast enough but I did lay my hands on a wall and prayed that the Holy Spirit would convict them of their heresy before we left the premises.
Thank you for your bravery and curiosity. Looks like no one can oust these false teachers and churches. I believe God will take care of these.
... Whom do you personally Know & Trust ...that Translated the King James Bible into English,Debbi ??

Why were you chased out of the sanctuary and bathroom, but allowed to look in classrooms?

I'm from Mt.Shasta CA. Only an hour away from Redding I can't believe this blasphemous monstrosity is in my back yard. I pray in Jesus name that all the "teachers" and memebers at Bethel Church will Repent and truly find their way to God through Christ! Thank you I pray in Jesus name Amen.
Tech Tip Justin: You want to "normalize" your video tracks to synchronize the audio levels. It's like turning the internal volume up or down based on a set level.
Love and thank God for the boldness He has given you in His service brother Peter's. You are an example to all of God's children to continue to stand for truth...no matter what!
Also thankful that God placed it on your heart to have "daily Bible" readings. They are indeed a blessing. Keep pressing on brother.
May God bless you and Kathy. Love y'all lots in the Lord.
Thank you Justin for posting this, and for your commentary and godly concern. It really is heartbreaking. I am afraid Bethel has stretched it's nefarious tentacles far and wide . May the Lord have mercy.
I was raised in an Adventist church that kicked my family out for not placing Ellen G. White equal with Christ. These false teachings just as the ones you are exposing hurt many people. Thank you for telling the truth.
SDA don't placed Ellen G. White equal with Christ and the bible. Some SDAs never read her books and don't teach about her.
@@XiaLian Yes, they do.I grew up in the church. My parents were KICKED OUT of the church for refusing to place EGW FIRST. I know what the truth is. It is cult underneath the veneer plain and simple.
@@dawntreader815 I also grew up as a SDA and that never happen, so don't make your experience as a generality because many SDA don't see her much more that a prophete, some people don't considere her as well. It aslo depend from which country where you are from.
@@XiaLian Doesn't have to be a generality for me to proclaim them a cult. My entire family bear the scars.
That’s absolutely ridiculous. Ellen White equal to Jesus. That has never been taught. This is false information and a figment of someone’s imagination.
Thank you Justin Peters for being brave enough to call out these false teachings. I have followed you for a bit and so far you are clearly teaching the truth. Than you!
Amen
Im glad you fought for the copyright claim.
"because I love Jesus" and "I want to get closer to Jesus", how are these not very good reasons to be baptised?
You are only baptized after you believe and are indwelled by the Holy Spirit. Just saying "I love Jesus" is not a testimony of salvation.
Thank you for all the work you do for the kingdom of God. Thank you.
I have been Listening to your daily scripture reading Bible in a year. I am blessed by it. The Teaching from this UA-cam channel is excellent.
Amen, Brother! I am so glad there is finally a solid, down to earth, practical and intellectual man of God, such as you! I was raised in a Baptist Church, but foolishly left for one of these charismatic ones, I cursed myself for doing this, the more I attended, the more sucked in I got, suddenly speaking in tongues wasn't enough, eventually I had to prophecy, give testimony, usually based off of sensationalism, or "how I felt". Usually involved tons of so called praise and worship, to "get us in the mood or spirit" lots of falling down, yelling, running around, crying hysterically, shaking etc.
I can tell you since I left, I got re acquainted with gospel truth I will never get involved with a movement such as this ever again, most of these charismatic churches are inter involved with each other, and sadly they are all (it seems) getting involved with behaviours such as this, this is really a big movement in Developing nations right now, Africa, The Philippines etc. Evangelists will often come as guest speakers after weeks oversees saying tons of people are being raised from the dead (why then does it never happen here?) or any credible news sources report on it? *exept their own internal reports which again based usually on sensationalism! Amen again bro!
God bless you Justin and thank you for speaking the truth in love. Love ya brother! 🙏
I always appreciate your heart, Brother Justin. It's so clear that you make these videos and expose these false teachers/false teachings because you care about the people being deceived. And even about those doing the deceiving. May there be conviction and repentance!
While I don’t attend Bethel currently, I do want to mention that when I was baptized at Bethel I had to attend a one hour class prior to the baptism so while I can’t speak to the examples you gave, I just wanted to say there is more than what’s shown on the stage.
I KNOW THAT BETHEL CHURCH DEFINITELY DOES TEACH CLASSES AND YOU MUST BE SAVED BEFORE YOU GET BAPTISED. 🙏🏻
Thankyou Justin for standing for the truth! Watching this video was so hard, it was both sickening and saddening to see, especially the first few ‘testimonies’ at how the young women looked drunk , getting drunk in the spirit is so unbiblical. One thing I will say is you said a number of times they have the same bible. A lot of those folk probably only read the Passion ‘translation’ and that I wouldn’t never call a bible.
Looks like you have chosen a new idol Kristy, HE stands for Truth, really? He is human, that makes him fallible AND a sinner just like me and you. Want the TRUTH? comes from only ONE place, Jesus.
Salvation only comes through repentance and faith in the person and finished work of Christ! Not because you profess to love Jesus, ask Jesus into your heart, or had some spiritual encounter. Faith in the GOSPEL is what saves.
Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved.......
@@caroleimani9754 But we MUST know what the Biblical Gospel is: Christ's death, burial & resurrection which paid for our sins. Prophesied in Scripture & defined succinctly in 1 Cor. 15:1-4
MY SIN nailed Jesus to that cross. He died to save me from myself. Thank you Jesus for your sacrifice.
My daughter and her family go to a church in Redmond Oregon that closely follows the same doctrine that Redding Bethel church does. My 5 and 6 year old grandchildren were baptized last year. My daughter and her husband are following Charlie Shamp to Nepal in March to evangelize! I’m praying for the Lord to open their eyes.
God bless you real good my brother. Thanks so much for helping me grow in my daily walk with God. I sincerely appreciate your daily reading of the word of God . MORE GRACE.
What !! Are they serious ?? OMG !! If someone had told me this I would’ve thought it was a joke, that’s not the reason one should be baptized and the pastor isn’t even correcting them, God have mercy on us
I had a sort of 'tongues aint real' type experience with baptism. I was baptised as a Mormon as a kid, as my mother was trying to keep up appearances during that time.
The whole event was covered in ceremony, and I had no idea what I was doing. All I knew is that when I got baptised I was supposed to feel overwhelmed with joy and the Holy Spirit. Instead what I got was the somewhat frightening experience of all of the adults making a giant fuss, followed by 20 years of atheism.
Been hoping to get a proper baptism some time soon. Last couple years since I was saved have been a 40 years in the wilderness sort of thing, not yet found a church. Living in an atheist country means I've pretty much been stuck to UA-cam pastors.
Where are you, if I might ask? There might be ways to find a church near you.
@@heathobrien356 In England, where you can now be arrested for praying silently.
@@joban4963 , whoa. we still have some freedom in the states. But no good churches in England?!? That's amazing, in a sad way.
@@joban4963 I saw that on the news. Unbelievable. So very sad.
There is a good church where you can be baptized, sir. Dustin Benge used to preach there. I'll look up the church and give you the name and town. Just reply to this post, so I'll get a bell and can easily respond. God bless you!
I would not say these people at Bethel got Baptised. They just got wet.
Love your Godly teaching Justin.
I praise our dear Lord that their still is a remnant of the body of Christ.
Thankyou for warning people. May their ears be open to the Truth.
God bless you.
🙏🙏🙏
Great message Justin..I feel your compassion for these people..I believe many will come out in Jesus name..thank you sir..
I have been a charismatic / continuationist for 29 years now and have been in pastoral ministry for the last 17 years. I began speaking out against these False teachers several years ago and have lost many relationships because of it. What scares me the most is how intensely they come against me when I "dare to speak out against the man of God," but none of them can defend their teaching. I have even had several pastors admit that they cannot defend the teaching, but they are committed to the "miraculous thing happening there." Watching people who I know have been taught Biblical truth, and people who I have learned from over the years, so easily snowballed by false teaching that should be so obvious to them is the saddest thing I have encountered during my time in ministry. On the bright side, I have been able to open the eyes of multiple people who have woken up to this nonsense. Blessing on you Justin for the work you do.
...very Impressive with your Resume ; Justin Peters says that God has called him to be a Crippled Preacher : so He will NEVER heal Justin Peters.
... Do you agree with Justin Peters' statement , Charismatic Preacher ??
@@singingtomycat1724 I think Justin has the absolutely correct view on his condition. I have had the opportunity to meet Justin briefly. Do I think that God will never heal him is not a very good question. The better question would be, "can God heal Justin," and the answer is yes. But God is not bound to our will or desires. We are bound to His. So, in that light, if God decides to heal Him, he will, but if He decides not to heal him, then Justin will minister for the rest of his earthly days as he is. But, at the end of his days, when he is called home, he will spend eternity fully healed and in a new glorified body. As Justin has said many times, spending the rest of his life crippled is fine with him if it serves the Lord because he will have the rest of eternity to enjoy his glorified body. In the end, the choice to heal or not heal belongs to the Lord.
... We can't treat the things of God that way , Brother ...saying such as , " oh well...if God wants to Save me He can - I will just sit around and let Him come and Save me when He is good & Ready to do it . "
Would you have any words of admonition for the Person who talked like that , Pastor ? I'm sure you would ! Our Salvation has be be received by a Conscience choice of the person , Right !? Well it is the same with the Divine Healing of our bodies; WE have to do something about it - it isn't just going to fall on us like Ripe Cherries fall of a tree on our head.
So Justin Peters will never be healed if he is waiting for God to it ... just like a Soul will never be Saved if they are in the same way waiting for God to Save him.
...You should know better than that, Pastor : I'm glad I'm not a member of the Church you have - nobody will ever get healed in there...
@@singingtomycat1724 Interesting, so is that why Bill wears glasses, why his wife had cancer... because they haven't done anything about it. Let me know the next time you go into a hospital and heal everyone there with your divine powers, until then I will lean on the sovereignty of God and trust His will in my life. You obviously have no idea what you are talking about, and it is pretty obvious that you didn't understand anything I wrote. By the way, I have had many healings in my church, and we see people coming to Christ regularly.
@@bluecollartheologypodcast
...you make such weak arguments , Pastor...you would have been better off pointing out all the people in the Gospels that asked Jesus to heal them ... and He said , " No " . There aren't any He said No to, are there?? But now, according to you... Jesus refuses to Heal quite often ...something is wrong - He is not the Same Jesus . I base my faith on what the Written word Says...not what Bill Johnson does or doesn't do ( That would be Walking by Sight) . ...
Ok , The Hospital - When Doctors come to our Churches and Perform Heart Transplants in our buildings...i will gladly return the favor, and go into their Operating Rooms and conduct Healing Services.
THANKYOU Dear Brother for exposing falsehoods which are not biblical❗️
- We ALL are obligated to do the same.
THANKYOU Jesus for this faithful Brother! 🕊✝️🙏🏼
Your spot on!brother Justin👍🏽
When I got baptized by immersion, I gave a testimony similar to those at Bethel because I was kinda scared and I was also at a loss of words.
The real reason I seek to be baptized was because, in my studying of the Bible, I discovered that repentance is supposed to come before baptism and a sister in Christ showed me the verses that justify baptism by full immersion.
Yes repentance is supposed to come before baptism, but we are supposed to beleive and then repent. But for some people it is a slow fade from their old life. The bible gives us the example of the eunich for a reason! He beleived and then was baptized...in a puddle! Baptism is just a publicnproclamation that you beleive that Jesus Christ died for your sins, and was raised on the 3rd day and that He is our Lord and Savior and will return again to make the whole world new! There's no "right time" or a reason to wait to be baptized. As soon as you beleive be baptized!

Thank you for that. A good few years ago, I used to only think about God the father. I started to worry that everyone else at church was focusing on Jesus. I knew I was lacking in my belief. I believed that Jesus is God, the Son, But didn’t focus on His importance so much. One day I had these thoughts come to me and it felt like I was being given them rather than my normal thinking. The thoughts were illustrating Jesus as being like the hub of a bicycle wheel where Jesus is the centre, the hub by which everything revolves and comes from. Years later, the November before last, I finally believed that Jesus died for me and I believed His blood was shed for me. I also confessed my secret sins To God especially that I had been wanting to keep a bit of my sin up until then, but no longer wanted any of them. I felt the love of Christ and again a few weeks or a couple of months later but even stronger especially the belief that Christ died and shed His blood for me. For a few months lately though, I have been worried that I feel feelingless. I don’t feel any kind of feelings. I have been hanging on to the character of Christ and trusting in His faithfulness. I started to worry when Justin Peters talked about Godly sorrow as opposed to worldly sorrow, but I think I can only feel worldly sorrow. I do remember when I first believed, that I didn’t want to sin against Christ rather than just not be found out. Will Godly sorrow increase as time goes bye?
This verse convicted me along with many others that we shouldn’t be flippantly “following” or teaching God’s word if we aren’t operating in His spirit, repenting , and seeking His will alone. Our hearts are deceitfully wicked to the point of being dangerous to trust in. God is the only good, infallible judge to trust in. Dear Lord please help us to see our error and sin and come humbly to you for your forgiveness and provision and denying ourselves and taking up our crosses in Jesus name amen. 🙏 Luke 12:48: But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more. (Those given much will be expected much and if we fail to do what God required there will be even more severe punishment and judgement)
Powerful teaching , we need more of this Thank you Justin ❤️
