| Bill Johnson | | Some people in my church have started listening to this man, and it is now going through the whole church. I never heard him myself, but I did a little research and didn't like what I see. Does anyone have any advice, any info about him. It would be highly appreciated. _________________ Adam Moore

| Re: Bill Johnson | | Have you tried an internet search?
I did, and I suppose it is the same Bill Johnson of Redding, CA.
I have never heard of him until this post, so we are in the same boat.
Just try a search.
God bless. |

| Re: | | If it is the same Phil Johnson, he has his own blog call Pyromanics, he is a elder at Grace comminuty Church under the leadership of John macarthur. He also runs a website that is spurgeon.org.
I don't know the man, I have heard a bit of a sermon, but as far as I can tell, he seems to be greatly grounded in the Word and church history. |

| Re: Bill Johnson | | You are faced with a true problem. There is alot of bad teaching out there and trying to tell people they are listening to bad teaching can be hard thing indeed.
The best thing you can do, is number one pray, for God's wisdom, and intervention. next listen to the teaching yourself if the Lord wants you to do something about it. With actual tapes or transcripts of Bad teaching, bad meaning actual herasy. not just silly. Theres alot of silly teaching out there and alot of silly christians who will pay to hear silly teaching. "there silly but saved" just love them. You will want to inform your church leadership, if they dont already know, and try to reveal bad teaching to your brothers and sisters, in a quiet and loving way so they can see the truth without embarassing them too much. unfortunately so many christians out there are not equipped to detect unscriptural teaching. Like A.W. Tozer said once, bank tellers are taught how to detect fake money by studying the real, and when they know what the real looks like at a glance they will spot the fake. Too many christians today dont know the real enought to spot the fake. :cry: I've heard enough about the redding church to put up red flags for me, but not enough first hand info to say something bad. you will have to check it out for yourself with a right spirit, and If the Lord shows you something that needs to be addressed, then address it. God bless. p.s. you will be persecuted, Its for a good cause. "TRUTH" _________________ howard

| Re: | | Thanks for the advice. Here is the main problem. My pastor is being handed these tapes, and seems to like them. His usual food is Tozer, Wilkerson, Ravenhill and such like. I haven't heard Bill Johnson myself yet, but I might see what its all about. I really don't know how to address the situation yet. I will have to keep praying about it. _________________ Adam Moore
