Bethel Church COVID 19 Super Spreader?

Hello ladies and gentlemen, my name is Justin Peters. I hope that you and your family are doing well today. I want to thank you very much for watching this video. The big news out of the evangelical world in the last couple of days has been a spike in COVID -19 cases in Shasta County, California.

Shasta County up there in Northern, California beautiful part of the nation. Up there. Or over there from here, but anyway, I've been there's gorgeous. But there has been a spike in COVID -19 cases and you may be wondering well, how does that relate to the evangelical world?

Well, it's it relates to the evangelical world because of the source of This spike in cases. Let me read to you from an article entitled 123 COVID -19 cases tied to Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry.

The article says that Shasta County officials say they know what is behind a recent spike in COVID -19 cases. The county announced Tuesday that 123 cases have been tied to the Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry.

Students at the Reading School travel from all over the world to study and often live together in homes throughout Shasta County. Health officials have indicated that college-aged adults like those that attend Bethel are behind the increased infection rates.

Bethel returned to campus and in-person services in September after saying they had not had any positive tests. Article goes on to say that another cluster of cases was traced to Windsor care facility and assisted living facility.

60 cases have been traced back to that facility. 123 cases, however traced to Bethel Church. This is pertinent because Bethel Church is New Apostolic Reformation. New Apostolic Reformation is everything.

Word of Faith is all of the worst elements of the Word of Faith movement. The little God's doctrine the positive confession doctrine. The spiritual death of Jesus at Jesus atoned for our sins in hell.

Guaranteed money guaranteed healing all of these things and NAR takes it a step further. They have even more emphasis on modern-day Apostles and modern-day signs and wonders and they even get into what is known as Dominion Theology, which is a aberrant view of eschatology as topic for another video.

Maybe so. New Apostolic Reformation is bad news. And if your church sings Bethel music, by the way, you ought to know that that's where this that music is coming from Bethel Church, so this really is ironic.

This is a church that teaches that it is always God's will to be healed. In fact the pastor Bill Johnson, he has said quote. I refuse to create a theology that allows for sickness. Well, he may refuse to create that theology, but it doesn't really matter because that theology already exists.

It's called biblical theology and.

So.

Bill Johnson is a wolf. He is a false teacher. Bethel Church does constitute a theological cult and they believe that they can just Banish sickness. There goes Mia. So You want to see something fun? I'll show you how to get Mia back.

Let's take a little digression here. Watch this.

There.

She comes she heard the The rustling of the the treat bag. So y 'all hang on. I'm gonna push pause here. I'll be right back. Okay, I've read in some of the comments that some of you have left that you would really like to see more of Mia.

And I can't pick her up. She's a little dog. She's on the floor, but I have a have a little treat. So we'll see if this works. See if I can get this in there. So there's there's Mia. Was that good?

Was that good? Okay.

She wants another one. That's all she's gonna get. Okay, I digress. All right, so Bethel Church's new absolute Reformation and for those of you who have been following Bethel you might have seen them in the headlines.

Especially in the last year or so and not for good reasons, unfortunately Bethel Church Has made a lot of decrees. They have tried to decree The wildfires to go away. They didn't they tried to decree.

They claim to be able to control the weather and yet they weren't able to talk up any rain to put the wildfires out. For the last several years they decreed that this little girl Olive that died a Little two-year-old girl in the church daughter of one of their members.

They decreed her to come back to life. Of course, she didn't. That little girl is is in heaven now. But anyway They decreed here and this gets to the real meat of the matter here. Back in March, they decreed COVID -19 to go away on March 20th of 2020 this is when the shutdowns are really getting underway and a lot of people are very worried and scared about COVID -19 and Kenneth Copeland was he was just about to make a fool of himself.

Well, the Word the New Episodic Reformation folks from Bethel actually got a bit of a jump on him In in doing that making fools of themselves, unfortunately. But they had an online live Facebook live kind of thing in which they were they decreed an end To COVID -19 and I have a few video clips of this we have.

In this we have Ed Silvoso from Brazil Che on Bill Johnson, of course Chris Vallotton and Sean Bowles. So they believe that they can decree things and whatever they decree must come to pass. So Show you a few clips.

Watch this.

He has given us authority to bind and loose. I mean have you ever noticed most of Jesus's prayer were not intercessory. He wasn't asking the Father to heal. He told the lame person take up your mat and walk told the man with the withered arm stretch out your arm.

He told the storm to be still. Those are decrees. And I feel that God and if I could just say that Kings make decrees and Jesus is the King of Kings. But we're also Kings. We're all priests and Kings Revelation 1 6 and 5 10.

And so we want to make these kingly priestly decrees and so this is the biblical basis.

I okay your friends.

I just real quickly. Revelation 1 6 and Revelation 5 10 speaks of us as being in God's kingdom. But we are not Kings. We are part of God's kingdom in that we have been Adopted into God's family by faith in Jesus Christ, but we are not Kings and that that is not what those texts say.

We we are it does reference us as being priests and that we have access To God's throne of grace through the merits of Christ, but we are not Kings. We cannot make decrees like God can only God makes decrees.

I think there's power behind it is when you make a decree. I don't know my my faith rises. But these are decrees that we believe that God has spoken to us to make and so I want to at this point Ask Chris to make the first decree.

So I want to make a decree against this this virus right now in Jesus name I break the power of this corona virus. You will not have the crown. Jesus has the crown. He is King of Kings. And so I command this this this virus to be to to leave both to leave People's minds leave people's hearts to leave to leave the earth.

So Chris Vallotton decreed an end to kovat 19 from the earth. Well back in March even globally speaking we were numbering the number of confirmed kovat cases in the tens of thousands and as of this recording the confirmed number of cases now well in excess of 35 35 ,000 ,000.

So that didn't work out so well.

Bill you're next.

We decree in Jesus name that God will protect his church from this virus. Based on Psalms 91 10 no evil will befall you or any plague come near your tent your dwelling. And for those who have tested positive the corona virus God would send forth his word and heal you in Jesus name.

And Psalms 107 verse 20 says. And he sent. And he healed them. So we declare that healing word over you mighty name of Jesus.

Amen, Sean, we just pray on earth as it doesn't have in your atmosphere in heaven right now God. Would you just fill the earth with it?

So that was Sean Bowles and Sean Bowles is a false prophet and I'm interrupting here for a couple of reasons. Number one I want to I want to draw your attention to the description down below. Look in the description because there I'm going to have a link to a video that shows you Exactly how Sean Bowles is a false prophet?

He is what you call a Google Prophet. Stephen Kozar has done a couple of videos on this and and I have one of them linked at least one of the as of this recording. So you can see how Sean Bowles does what he does.

He gets words of knowledge of people out there in the audience. And he claims that these words of knowledge are coming from God through direct divine revelation. He's got this pipeline you see to heaven and God speaks to him and gives him specific information about People out there in the audience.

Very impressive. The only problem is is he's getting this information from social media as he's quite literally as he's offering the prophecy quite literally staring at his iPhone or whatever phone he's got or his iPad, I mean, I mean he's he's a Obvious obvious.

Charlatan.

Huckster huckster 150 years ago. He would have been a snake oil salesman selling his wares out of a Covered wagon or you know a fortune teller. That's all he is. He's a charlatan and By extension all these people all these so-called prophets rounding if they were real prophets, they would know that too.

So they're all false prophets. They're all charlatans. So anyway, but did you notice his wording there? On earth as it is in heaven. That's the second reason I'm interrupting this false prophecy because on earth as it is in heaven that is a reference of course or phrase out of Jesus prayer in Matthew chapter 6 and What word of faith New Apostolic Reformation people do with this?

They say well on earth as it is in heaven. So whatever God's will is in heaven. That's how it ought to be on earth. Let me show you this video from Bill Johnson that we were just watching a minute ago.

Bill Johnson expounding on this just a little bit more.

Explain to me what kingdom culture? Well culture is the way you do life. It's their value system. It's it's how you respond to relationships and money and all these things. It's just as the it's the preset values that you carry in your heart that determine how you do life.

But kingdom culture is is how heaven functions and when we pray this prayer on earth as as it is in heaven It's not just a prayer about eternity. It's actually a prayer for right now. It's God's intention right now to influence My circle of influence with a manifestation of his presence in such a way that it mirrors heaven.

That means there's no cancer there. There's not to be cancer here. So when we pray for someone to be healed we do it based on the example given us in that prayer. There's none there. There's not to be any.

So when Jesus was giving his disciples instructions on how to pray and he prayed He said pray in this way our Father who is in heaven Hallowed be thy name and thy kingdom come that will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

That is not an instruction for us to Expect or to pray for that that exactly as things are in heaven. They should be here on earth. That is an eschatological prayer and it's beyond the scope of this video here to to get into the nuts and bolts of that.

But just from a logical standpoint. Think about how quickly this breaks down. Okay, Bill Johnson and Sean Bolts. They say that that however things are in heaven that should be what it is here on earth and.

Therefore there's there's no cancer in heaven. And so there should be no cancer on earth, you know, no arthritis. No cerebral palsy in my case in heaven. So that shouldn't be here on earth and and we are to pray for and expect those things to become reality.

Well, let me let's see Bill Johnson is married. There's no marriage in heaven. Why is he married here? You see how quickly this breaks down? Let's see. What else there is no evangelism in heaven. So are we not to evangelize here?

And I might also point out there are no eyeglasses in Heaven and yet Bill Johnson has a pair resting on his nose. Dear friends never trust a faith healer who's wearing eyeglasses.

And even as we're praying we know God and we decree that you're moving mountains. You're moving mountains in society. You're moving mountains of the spirit over this virus. You're moving strategy from heaven and wisdom into heaven on the earth and we decree an end of this in Jesus name.

So Sean Bowles declared an end to the corona virus kovat 19. This is again. This was March the 20th 2020 but that's not the first time he Decreed an end to kovat 19. In fact, he did so just a few weeks before in fact when he did it it made National news.

Fox News even picked up on this story. He made a prophecy about kovat 19 back in February, February 28th of 2020 and Fox News ran a news story on their website and the title of this is Christian pastor Sean Boltz quote the Lord showed me the end of the corona virus.

Sean Boltz a Christian pastor, which he's not but not Christian In Los Angeles who teaches about listening to God. Yeah, listening to God through social media on his smartphone has good news to share about the corona virus.

He prophesied about the virus which has sickened 91 ,000 people worldwide. Boy, don't those numbers look small today and caused more than 3 ,000 deaths declaring quote the tide is turning now. We're going to see it come to an end Boltz told Fox News.

It's not going to be the pandemic that people are afraid of and he is claiming divine authority for this decree for this Declaration. Well, so he he had already proven himself to be a false prophet. I mean many other occasions as well, but that was just related to this particular issue.

And so he tries it again on March the 20th. Just a few weeks later and and does yet another face plant as they all do.

So.

Back to our video.

Man, I'm in Che your next.

The God who causes all things to work together for good will use this coronavirus crisis to awaken.

Unbelievers, okay, so Che on. Decrees that God would use the corona virus to awaken unbelievers. You mean the same corona virus that all your buddies in this? live Facebook event just decreed an into.

That they just decreed that it would be banished from the earth that corona virus God is going to use now to awaken unbelievers. How does that work, I mean I'll just decreed an into it and yet now you're decreeing that God use it to awaken unbelievers.

I mean, honestly friends you just the the just a little common sense. Even if you don't understand the theology behind all this stuff. Just a little common sense. Goes so far in clearing so much of this stuff up.

We bind the God of this age as blinded unbelievers.

So right after Che on Decreed that God used the corona virus to awaken unbelievers the same virus that they just banished from the face of the earth. Then he he decrees that we bind. The strongman binds Satan the God of this age the God of this world and God of this age better rendering in 2nd Corinthians 4 4.

But anyway, so so we're. He's decreed that Satan would be bound, you know friends. All these folks going around binding Satan you hear charismatics do this all the time, don't you. You know, we bind Satan.

I bind you Satan and you know binding Satan and rebuking Satan and all this stuff. Have you ever wondered for all these people going around binding Satan? Who's the fellow who keeps letting him back out?

You know somebody keeps letting him back out all these charismatics binding Satan, but someone keeps letting him back out. Who's that guy? Maybe ought to go find him find the fellow who keeps letting him out and bind him first.

And then go bind Satan, you know. Again, just a little common sense. A little common sense. You and I don't have the power and the ability to bind Satan. Satan is not bound.

He.

Prowls about like a roaring lion right seeking whom he may devour and doesn't sound very bound to me and could get into Eschatological issues there as well with Revelation 20, but again beyond the scope of this video.

But he ain't bound. Satan ain't bound and nobody's able to bind him. In fact when you read Jude read read the book of Jude I don't have it put up in front of you, but read Jude verses 6 7 8 9 and 10 in there and Reviling angelic majesties Rebuking Satan and or demons that that is that is something that even Michael the Archangel Would not do in the book of Jude when they had the dispute over the body of Moses think about that Michael the Archangel would not rebuke Satan.

So if if Michael the Archangel wouldn't do it, it's probably a pretty good idea you and I not try to do it either. Difference we don't have the power to bind Satan. There is only one who has the power to do that and that is God now.

We do have access to God who actually does have the ability to bind Satan. We have access to him through prayer. But we don't have the ability bind Satan going around binding Satan or rebuking Satan or demons or rebuking angelic majesties.

That's actually what false teachers do. That's what the book of Jude is about is about false teachers. That's what false teachers do and for more information about that. I would very highly come into you a book entitled truth or territory a Biblical approach to spiritual warfare.

So if you want to know more about what real spiritual warfare is and what it's not hint. It's not about binding and rebuking Satan or breaking generational curses Territorial spirits and all that kind of stuff.

It's not what it's about so I commend to you this book truth or territory a biblical approach to spiritual warfare by Jim Osman, so. All right, dear ones. Well a relatively short video I guess just just another face plant by the charismatic false prophets word-faith new apostolic Reformation false prophets decreeing in the end To kovat 19 and yet it obviously has not happened and now the the Mecca of Nar theology Bethel Church is in and of itself a super spreader.

I Guess we could say isn't that ironic. Isn't that ironic Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry? Then that rebukes and binds sickness and disease and banishes it and doesn't allow doesn't even Allow a theology for sickness and disease.

Well, they've become. The reason that there is that Shasta County has now been moved into the red category, you know. Danger danger danger, I guess so how ironic. I take no joy in this. And please don't think that I'm not rejoicing that anyone there is getting kovat 19.

It's just something that I think we're gonna have to live with for a while. But I don't rejoice in that but it it there is. There is a lesson to be learned here. Kovat 19 has utterly exposed this movement the entire movement for the complete farce.

That it is. These people cannot decree sickness and disease to go away. Obviously they decreed it to be gone back in March and now they are the hot spot of kovat 19. Isn't that ironic. They can no more decree kovat 19 to be gone their decrees for kovat 19 to be banished and sickness to be gone there those decrees or have just as much merit in just as much effectiveness and are grounded in just as much reality as Bruce Jenner.

Declaring or decreeing that he's a woman. Yeah, I mean honestly that that is how much. That that is the the validity of their decrees. Just as much validity as when Bruce Jenner says that he's a woman, you know, I don't.

Bruce Jenner is a man in a dress. He's not a woman. Do a DNA test. So you you know a man can say all day long how much he identifies as a woman. He ain't a woman. He's a man in a dress and men make really ugly women by the way, but at any rate.

Can't do it reality is reality difference, so. Hope that this has been helpful for you interesting maybe use this video share it with some of your friends who are Drawn to this movement to one degree or another and just so I mean the the evidence is just absolutely overwhelming.

That points to the utter bankruptcy of this entire movement these people are not prophets. They're not Apostles. They can't decree anything. God is sovereign. They are not obviously. Thank you very much dear ones until our next time together.

May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ the love of God and the fellowship of his Holy Spirit be with you all.
