Spirit- Led or Purpose Driven?
By Berit Kjos
Our website began to receive requests for information about The Purpose Driven Life last year. So Andy and I bought the book, read it quickly and were troubled by some of its claims, promises and paraphrased "Bible" references. But we also found many true and encouraging pages. Since we didn't want to criticize Rick Warren or confuse those who apparently were helped by his book, we left it on the shelf... Transformations or re-formation

Ms. Louisa Coetzee, Cape Town, South Africa Johan Malan & Louisa Coetzee, South Africa (2001.04.06) The World Christian Movement: Evangelism versus Evangelization

Open Letter series Regarding the Election of Ted Haggard as President of the NAE- An Open Letter to the National Association of Evangelicals – Re: The Election of Ted Haggard as President of the NAE by Sandy Simpson & Mike Oppenheimer, ACT & Let Us Reason Ministries
This open letter details facts that the NAE membership may have overlooked in their election of Haggard. The letter shows Ted Haggard's promotion of ecumenical unity between orthodox Pentecostals, charismatics, the UPC cult, the Third Wave, and the Word-Faith movement. It shows a false prophesy he just made. It highlights his evangelistic methodology and unbiblical spiritual warfare techniques. Most importantly, it shows how this election fits in perfectly with the plans of the International Coalition of Apostles under C. Peter Wagner to take over leadership in Christendom. An Answer to Ted Haggard: Response to Ted Haggard’s E-Mail Rebuttal of “Open Letter to NAE” Sandy Simpson & Mike Oppenheimer, ACT & Let Us Reason Ministries
This article is a response to an email we received from Ted Haggard on April 7, 2003. Haggard was responding to "Open Letter To The NAE... Ted Haggard Quickly Uses His New Presidency In The NAE
To Advance Policies For Evangelicals On Islam
We warned the Church about the effect that the International Coalition of Apostles will have on Christendom recently in two articles.We believe that the seriousness of doctrinal issues being introduced by the International Coalition Of Apostles (ICA) through Ted Haggard to the NAE and his assertions with regard to his involvement in the ICA present a threat to the integrity of the truths of the written Word of God and to the Gospel message. Our second article was only out a few days before our claims had been proven accurate. Ted Haggard immediately went into "interfaith" mode, using his new position as the president of the NAE to promote the Dominionist agenda of the ICA and the New Apostolic Reformation with regard to evangelism. First, let's go back...
WILLOWCREEK CHURCH AND BILL HYBEL’S THEOLOGY: Biblical Christianity or the Church or Laodicea? By James Sundquist
There is an epidemic movement which has infected even the most conservative denominations and seminaries, which began in the United States more than a decade ago, and is now being manifested throughout the Church globally. One of the founders of this "seeker-friendly" movement is Bill Hybels, Senior Pastor of Willowcreek Church in the Chicago area WILLOWCREEK: The New Evangelism; WillowCreek Style- Is This of God? What in the world is happening to our churches? Many people are either confused or blindly accepting the new non-traditional worship services that are changing a lot of evangelical churches. It is happening worldwide. Many people are saying, “the church has to change during the twenty-first century if we are to bring the younger generation into it”. Let’s take a hard look at these changes and see if this is really of God, or a shallow misrepresentation of real Christianity. RESTORATION OF DAVIDIC WARFARE/WORSHIP By Orrel Steinkamp, The Plumbline, Volume 7, No. 4, September/October 2002
