Due to recent discussions and threads, I will post some sermons and messages that has helped me to by Gods grace discern the time we live in.

If ever we have any doubts about which are actually the true and false prophets, we can always take what the modern day prophets say and compare it to God's Holy Word and HIS true prophets. As we do this we can also show ourselves to a workman approved in correctly dividing the WORD OF GOD and we can always be ready to give an answer for the hope that we have in Jesus.

Thanks for the links, this will be helpful to many.

Also, here's some simple advice that I have found helpful when I "try the spirits" of a speaker or writer...

from AW TOZER...

Some questions to ask, how does it affect my relationship to...

1) God - does it exalt Him?
2) Christ - does it make Him more wonderful or does it make the man bigger?
3) Scriptures - does it contradict God's word?
4) Sin - does it make sin intolerable?
5) World - is it drawing me to worldly things?

from TA Sparks...

1) does it crucify self-interest?
2) does it glorify God or man?
3) can it work out to an increase of Christ?

In Christ,

Ron

Beware my brethren for these "so-called" healing artists and prophets. God's Word has final authority of revelation. It is complete. There is no need for further prophecies. God's Word defines it all.

Also, the charismatic movement is very dangerous. I was in the movement for a brief period of time and then God annointed me with the gift of discernment and I walked away without looking back. I had many friends that are still active in the charismatic church. Be very careful of these people.

My only advice is to pray for God to give you discernment to distinguish right from wrong or false teaching.

Here are a few links to help better understand the charismatic movement and its entities and doctrine. I hope they help.

God bless you all.

I have many more links to share. However, these should help for now.

If anyone that is reading is involved in the "movement" please know that people are praying for God to bring discernment to His people. Please reach out for answers in prayer if you are involved in something that does not seem right. That is God talking to you through the gift of discerning true doctrine from false doctrine.

Wow, this message is powerful. It seems to me that Mr. Conlon, more than any other preacher, speaks so clearly and directly to what the Lord is seeking in His church in our day. Maybe it's just me but this man's anointed preaching stirs my spirit deeply and I know I'm hearing something of the heart of God. It produces a desperate yearning for gospel reality in my life.

In Christ,

Ron

It is about 30 hours all in all, but it is very well spent time and in depth study off the way to freedom and the way to life eternal.
