Hello ladies and gentlemen, my name is Justin Peters I hope that this finds you and your family doing well today.

00:11

I want to thank you so much for joining me for this podcast Undoubtedly, you have heard of Bethel Church in Redding, California pastored by Bill Johnson Bethel Church, of course produces

00:23

Bethel music Bethel and Hillsong are sung by multiplied thousands of evangelical churches all around the world even cessationist churches

00:37

Disappointingly and rather inexplicably sing their music. I'm going to deal with that in an upcoming video

00:42

Lord willing I'm gonna hit that pretty hard too. But at any rate, that's not the purpose of this video but Bethel Church has the

00:50

Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry BSSM and this is their college.

00:57

It's not accredited Academically, it's a joke, but it is led by Bill Johnson, Chris Vallotton and Dan Farrelly Students from all over the world older teenagers young adults from all over the world flock to Redding, California to enroll in BSSM and the school bills itself as Being a place where you can be trained to be a revivalist and you go out as a revivalist

01:28

Ostensibly to preach some semblance of the gospel There's very little if any of that going on but what they really train you to do is to Operate in signs and wonders and move in the prophetic and to experience the presence of God well,

01:43

I'm gonna show you a video clip of an event at BSSM and I'll let you decide for yourself what kind of a presence might be there

01:56

Spoiler alert, it ain't of God What you're about to see is one of the most disturbing and one of the darkest things

02:05

That I have ever seen coming out of Any college much less one that would call itself

02:13

Christian But I want to show you this I've had this video for a number of years actually four or five years

02:18

But I want to show you this because it's it's not infrequent that I get asked by people

02:25

I get emails I get calls I get you know, I talk to people in my travels and Parents or grandparents will come up and say something along these lines, you know,

02:35

Justin I have a son or daughter. I have a niece or nephew granddaughter, whatever Who is thinking about going to Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry in Redding?

02:43

I'm really concerned about this I know it's not a good thing. But you know, what can I tell them? And so I want

02:50

I want to give you just one example if nothing else Show them this because what you're about to see is so dark so disgusting so twisted

03:04

You'll see very quickly that whatever presence is here It ain't of God But I want to show you this so this was taken from some kind of event that they had and one of the students apparently

03:13

Whipped out his or her Cellphone and started videoing this now this begins with a fire tunnel

03:21

Of course Bethel is known for having fire tunnels. This is common in the word faith new apostolic

03:26

Reformation movement Todd White does this kind of stuff? Heidi Baker and all these others and and Bethel is really known for it

03:35

But a fire tunnel and this is where you people stand They make like two rows of people

03:42

When they hold their arms out kind of make a bridge that you go through to get some kind of anointing

03:48

But whatever anointing is offered in these fire tunnels, I can tell you I can speak for myself I don't want any part of it.

03:55

But watch this. I'm gonna break this up in several segments. So The further along we go in this

04:02

The worse it's gonna get so Let's start here with the fire tunnel watch

04:09

Fire tunnel So This is a fire tunnel and you see students laying down on the floor, you know

04:51

They've been slain in the spirit and they're going through this tunnel and they're laughing uncontrollably

04:56

You know I don't see anywhere in the Bible Old or New Testament where someone's is in the direct acute presence of God and They start laughing

05:07

Quite the opposite Isaiah said in Isaiah chapter 6 Woe is me for I am ruined for I am a man of unclean lips and I live among a people of Unclean lips for my eyes have seen the king

05:23

Yahweh of hosts, you know, I don't see anyone getting their chuckles off of the king of glory

05:29

I see people who are afraid I see people who are Overcome by the the great gulf that exists between the holiness of God in their own sin

05:40

So this is this is very dark But it's about to get a lot worse.

05:46

So it's gonna go from this fire tunnel and Holy Ghosts laughter to a Holy Ghost headbutt think

05:53

I'm kidding Nope Have you had your

06:07

Holy Ghost headbutt yet today Pong pong. No. No, you haven't had that well, you just must not be in the presence of God because When God is present you see people get

06:21

Holy Ghost headbutts. That's the Atmosphere of the presence of God, right? Yeah.

06:26

Well, well apparently it is at Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry All right, so let us continue with this and this clip is going to introduce to us

06:37

I suppose a Holy Ghost puppet Why not? Oh So in just about a minute or so here we have progressed or digressed from a fire tunnel to a

07:20

Holy Ghost headbutt to now a head nibble from a puppet and It's about to get worse.

07:31

It's about to get worse a lot worse Is that not sick is is that not just disgusting

08:03

If you ever thought you might have to go to like a Unitarian church or some church flying a rainbow flag from its door to see something like that in a church

08:14

Oh, no. No, you don't have to go to one of those churches to see two guys necking

08:20

Go to Bethel Go to the Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry, you can see it there

08:27

And it didn't stop there No, no, no check and and notice to the girl the girl who's holding her phone recording out it recording this

08:36

She's pointing and laughing And everybody around here sees what's going on and they're okay with it

08:49

Everybody's okay with this They're okay with notice to this this is going to continues good believe it or not.

08:58

It's even gonna get worse Notice the music in the background this repetitive

09:05

Music in the background undoubtedly some Bethel song haven't taken time to look it up yet But undoubtedly one of their songs because they're at Bethel of a obviously

09:15

This, you know, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, you know over and over and over this repetitive

09:22

That's Bethel music. That's the kind of stuff you get at Bethel. It's kind of stuff you get at Hillsong The charismatic movement would pretty much implode if it weren't for the music

09:35

People may take issue with that. But let me tell you something Benny Hinn Crusades where Faith healing meetings.

09:41

None of this stuff would work without the music It's this repetitive music that's emotionally charged to get people to not think, to disarm their intellect.

09:56

In fact, let me give you this quote from Bill Johnson. He says, and I quote, music bypasses all the intellectual barriers and when the anointing of God is on a song people will begin to believe things they wouldn't believe through teaching.

10:11

How true. Indeed, that's the key to this whole movement. It wouldn't work without the music.

10:19

Indeed, music does, this kind of music, does bypass intellectual barriers that God puts there for our protection.

10:27

And it will indeed help you to believe things that you otherwise wouldn't believe if you had been taught them, but not the way

10:35

Bill Johnson means it. Yeah, that kind of music, it'll make you believe that it's okay, for example, to to do fire tunnels.

10:44

It'll make you believe it's okay to get a Holy Ghost headbutt, and that puppets giving you head nibbles are okay.

10:54

It'll even make you believe that two guys necking with each other is a result of the presence and atmosphere of God.

11:06

Unbelievable. Definitely does bypass the intellectual barriers, and everybody there went along with it.

11:15

Everybody there went along with it. Where's the

11:21

Holy Spirit? Emphasis upon holy. Where is He? Where is the restraining work of the

11:27

Holy Spirit in this room and in the lives of those kids, young adults?

11:34

Yeah, all right. Believe it or not, it gets worse. Friends, that is sick.

12:10

That is twisted. That is dark. The Holy Spirit isn't within a thousand miles of that place.

12:20

Metaphorically speaking, you know what I mean. I want to show you something from their own website.

12:25

The Bethel Church and Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry. They're real big on the presence of God.

12:31

Let me read this to you. BSSM is a Holy Spirit driven ministry school where students learn how to live in the kingdom of God and extend its borders through a supernatural lifestyle.

12:42

Everything is connected to the presence of God. We experience His presence when we gather together, and we learn that His presence follows us everywhere we go as we are transformed to be aware of it.

12:54

We experience His presence when we gather together. Well, we just looked at a gathering together of Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry, so ostensibly,

13:04

I suppose, that's the presence of God. That's the presence of God? No, ma 'am.

13:10

No, sir. That is not the presence of God. There may be a presence there, but it is not of God.

13:16

There may be a spiritual being or beings there, but they are anything but holy.

13:23

Continues. Atmosphere. They're real big on atmosphere. Big on atmosphere. The atmosphere of the school is built around the presence of God.

13:31

An entire culture is lived out day after day with worship as a primary expression. Passion, purity, purity.

13:39

What a joke. Power and love of the presence of God are center stage. These values divine our atmosphere and are manifest in our worship, ministry, and relationship.

13:49

Presence of God is center stage, really. Friends, what we've just witnessed is not of God.

13:57

That is dark, if anything. It is demonic. It is sick and twisted and dark.

14:04

God isn't anywhere near there. God has nothing to do with that other than to bring

14:10

His judgment down upon it. One of the ironies is that these people,

14:16

Word Faith, NAR folks, they would look at someone like me and they would say, oh, you don't believe.

14:21

I can't tell you how many times I've heard this. Wish I had a nickel. You don't believe in the Holy Spirit. You don't believe in the power of the

14:28

Holy Spirit. Au contraire. As a cessationist, someone who believes not that all of the spiritual gifts have ceased, but merely the sign gifts, the apostolic gifts have ceased.

14:38

As a cessationist, I cede no ground to these folks in my pneumatology, in my doctrine, in my view of the

14:46

Holy Spirit of God. My view of the Holy Spirit is far too high to allow for this.

14:53

If these people were truly indwelt by the Holy Spirit of God, then the Holy Spirit of God would drop them to their knees under such heavy conviction as they bring that kind of reproach upon His name.

15:07

That is disgusting. So it is not I. It is not cessationists who have a low view of the

15:14

Holy Spirit of God. It's they who have a low view of the Holy Spirit of God. The very people who claim to have the highest view and the most intimate relationship with the

15:27

Holy Spirit. No, it is they who have the lowest view of the

15:33

Holy Spirit of God. So if you're watching this, if you have a son, a daughter who is thinking about going to Bethel, or maybe already is at Bethel, or a niece or nephew or granddaughter, grandson, whatever, plead with them to come out of this place.

15:50

It's dark. It is dark. Maybe you're a student. Maybe you're a student right now at Bethel and you stumbled on this video.

15:58

Please, I don't hate you. I don't hate anyone there.

16:03

In fact, I love them enough to call them to repent. But if you're at this school and you're sensing that something's not right, go with that.

16:14

Something's not right. A lot of things are not right. In fact, nothing about this place is right.

16:21

Get out. Get out. Leave. Leave. You're not being taught the Word of God. Nothing about the presence of God is really there.

16:28

Only that is in His judgment that will come down on this kind of blasphemy and reproach that is being brought upon the name of Christ and the

16:38

Holy Spirit of God. All right, dear ones. I hope this has been helpful, encouraging.

16:43

Probably not. This is hard to watch, isn't it? It's hard for me. But I hope that it has been at least equipping for you.

16:51

And if you want to show this video, I'm going to put the whole clip unedited without any breaks at the end of this video.

17:00

I'll just put the whole thing there so you can do a quick reference and you can show it to anyone that you need to show it to.

17:05

All right. Thank you so 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, emphasis upon Holy Spirit, be with you all.

17:57

Hey! Headbutt! Headbutt! Headbutt! Headbutt! Hey! Headbutt! Oh, you want a headbutt, too? Pong!

18:03

Pong, pong, pong! Headnibble!
