This book documents the extraordinary craziness and extra-biblical excess of Bethel and IHOPKC and other churches influenced by and promoting the heresies of the New Apostolic Reformation.
Thank you for the review. I wouldn’t use the phrase “fringes of the charismatic movement” because the movement as a whole is rotten at its core. I appreciate MacArthur’s Strange Fire as it does an excellent job addressing the birth of the movement and its ties to satanic practices, though I do not agree with his characterization that those in the pews of that movement are necessarily unsaved (topic for another day - would recommend A Defense of Free Grace Theology by Fred Chay, et al.)
You make a great point in saying that these types of books, with good biblical information and warnings lack help by way of practical guidance. So a disease has been discovered, and I appreciate you telling me what the disease is and how it affects me. What do I do now, and how do I prevent from future exposure? What does healthy look like? How do I share this information with others I love?
