Pastor Richard's response to Todd Bentley's return

[stoob1969]

He says he's under the anointing of William Branham, yes he is, a false prophet and manipulator of people.

[MessiahYeshuah]

What about Acts 2:17, does that have any relevance for today?

[dowchancey]

I thank you.

[BenOosterveld]

Very Interesting, I agree there are people in the church that are chancing SIGNIFICANCE that they think they can have from doing signs and wonders. The church today has built everything on the sermon and the show when the world was changed from the Jesus walking along side his disciples and helping them find personal healing ans true understanding of how significant they are as Gods people. It is time help people find healing so they can walk into what God has for them.

[keeyk118b]

the fact that todd bentley divorced his wife when there was no unfaithfulness on her part disqualfies him from being a church elder let alone have a public ministry. it is written in the bible.

[rickgigliotti]

Todd Bentley needs "kicked in the face"!!! BAM!

Matthew 7:21

"Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter.

2 Thessalonians 1:

8 dealing out retribution to those who do not know God and to those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. 9 These will pay the penalty of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power,

Follow God, not Todd...

[godislove671]

[atlasshrugged2u]

Exactly, anyone who does that should not be allowed to be back in the ministry ANYMORE, he's making mad money and he aint givin it up...that's just the truth of it all. Man! there are going to be sooo many "christians" in hell.

Good goin british dude, much respect!!

[steeplejackdibs]

God bless you richard for this accurate portrayal of this tatooed goon!

[daniel14pierce]

This is why we must have a true relationship with GOD!!! We are in a time now where we have to have relationship with GOD, there are more and more false leaders coming out of the wood works everyday. What we have to understand is that the devil knows the word and can preach the word, So if you are being pulled in by a so called word of God but there is no fruit to backing what is being spoken then there is a problem. God does everything in order. When GOD moves there is no question that its GOD.

[rjhelmlings]

Thank you for sharing this information so clearly. I have been invited to visit Todd Bentleys ministry in Seattle this week and declined after hearing many share how he has turned away from truth. It is like the movement 10 years ago when many were acting like animals and laughing out of control. Many of these people became seriously depressed after giving themselves over to this countfeit spirit. So many are looking for miracles and healings instead of seeking Jesus..I pray they are delivered!

[myjunk777]

Ok besides this: I do not know you, Can I tell from the Fruit in you live anything about you?

[PV777Christ]

Brother, you have your facts wrong. Bill Johnson never deemed it ok for Todd to divorce his wife. I am happy you posted an open rebuke, but I hope you pray for Todd just as diligently. The world laughs at us, because of the public divisions, and affairs like this mess.

[savedbyjesusblood]

There are many so called leaders/prophets promoting divorce. One woman on Youtube even said she got to prophecies from God telling people to get divorced. Sadly she has quite a few followers who hang off her every word.

[micahturnbo1]

I'm gonna stand up for Todd. I think God is using Him and you not seeing clearly. But of course your gonna say that you are and I'm not, but whatever. Lord I ask that you would continue to use Todd Bently even more. I also pray that he will not be affected by the persecution from this man.

[tercelkisor]

@micahturnbo1 i pray that god keeps using todd if he wills. but i pray that he also saves some from this mans spew. god uses false teachers as judgement and he will continue.

[rtaylor1275]

@tercelkisor the spew is coming out of your mouth Im speaking truth

[tercelkisor]

@rtaylor1275 i wasnt talking about you. i meant that god uses false teachers as judgement. todd is spewing and i pray god uses him for his plans as long as he sees fit. sorry for the misunderstanding

[Keruaran]

Amen.

[silverhawks]

What Todd Bentley is actually promoting is something very similar to either Eastern mysticism, and/or voudoun rituals.

[silverhawks]

Got to applaud you for this message, Richard. So many people are being seduced by this and the "new breed" which is not much more than a "Christianized" New Age movement, and glorification of HUMAN POWER.

[hedd1978]

quite right richard i watched your video and immediately heard your message. then watched the other video about the fake healer and i was totally horrified.!!!! i could not believe what i was seeing opr hearing. it was very offensive. i can see where your righteous anger is coming. from. i know it made me, and the three other people who also were watching reel back in shock. certainly open'd our eyes!!! exploiting innocent people. totally unexceptable!!!!!!!!!! please excuse my spelling

[unimackpass]

This is good. More people need to be speaking out on this. Is girlfriend was holding the mike while he was baptizing people in the name of bam at Lakeland.

[kit2ng219]

are you british?

[buzzbbird]

I have heard about the pressure and attacks against christianity in the UK and I am glad to see that there are a remnant of bibl-believers there

Thanks for this fearless proclamation against this son of Satan, Todd Bentley

[superkal2006]

we are judging and its satanic for believers not to judge because the fruit of not judging by righteous judgment is men who act inordinatly and put gods name on all forms of naughtiness..........those who are deeply in love with the devil and sin itself say 'judge not'. it is not at all in scriptural context to say 'don't judge'.

[stanmanmo59]

CONTINUE TO Expose the False Preachers, Teachers and christians. These guys are talk about by Andrew Strom & why he left the main Prophetic Movement. visit my other YOUTUBE sites STANMAGICMAN, STANMANMO59 & IZUM1234.

DON'T DRINK THE KOOL-AID

[19guitar65]

These people have obviously been given over to a great deception! there is no point in praying for them. GOD is the one who has let them believe a lie...because they deserve to! I get really tried of people saying don't judge, just pray, what a load of r...these people need to be publicly rebuked...then if they repent, sure welcome them back, but they should have to pay a price, just like breaking any law, but there is still a price to pay for disobedience.

[faithinJesus99]

Thank you Mr. Taylor for your video. I have a dear friend who has recently come out of the "new wine" movement, and who actually saw Bentley a few years ago. She has been in with the likes of Bill Johnson, etc, and was horrified to find that she who loves the Lord was led astray by people like these. I thank God for showing her the truth, for His allowing her to see and hear the truth about His Holy Word. You are so right to warn people against this heretical teaching, and I am praying for you.

[2105Jack]

Richard I couldn't agree with you more.

[YouKnowItzTTime81]

lol,todd bentley is funnier than benny hill to anybody with common sense and spiritual discernment.God will never tell anyone to kick an old lady in the face so she can be healed.man you got ne pretty lost to receive anything Todd Bentley says,God help those who are blind

[SuperBecksta]

However since Todd commited these sins he has been restored to God. Having turned away from his wicked ways and is walking according to God's will. If God has forgiven him then so should we!!!

[MissTiffee]

@SuperBecksta He hasn't turned from his wicked ways like pastor richard says stay away from him..

[Super1alpha]

Excellent response Pastor Richard! God bless you for standing up and naming names!!! God Bless you richly!

Brenda

[doscixftw]

Well done for speaking out Richard.!

[doscixftw]

Well done for speaking out Richard.!

[jlhenney]

You are afraid of god, and gods true nature, and you are afraid of things that have been actually statied in scripture that you claim to follow.

Instead of following Yeshua and serving the living God, you are following the demon of intellectualism and by doing so you give up God and what he has given to Humanity. Because of your pride, you have not been given the gifts that Todd Bentley has, and so you arragontly slander and seek to destroy one of Gods healers and prophets.

[MissTiffee]

@jlhenney I pray to Yeshua that YOU will follow and seek God'sTruth... demons can perform signs and wonders the whole golddust thing jewels.. which there is nowhere of that in the Bible.. So it's ok that Todd left his wife and children... committed adultery then married her.. and oh well.. which in the "confession" they were both smiling thinking it was ok.. wrong.. these are a part of the Apostasy 2 Thessalonians 2:3

[ceri64]

Good on you Richard for making a public stand against Todd - I just cannot understand how people are falling for such wolves!

How I wish there were more Pastors like you Richard, Pastors prepared to make a stand and protect their flock instead of brushing things under the carpet and being too afraid to judge. Read Ezekiel 34 - A powerful word from God to the shepherds of His flock.

[AndreaThomasMedia]

I believe that some would be shocked at this video. to be honest lol, this level of controversial truth comes as standard any week at Renewal haha.

Speak the truth Pastor Richard, I'm in total agreement. To the person who mentioned "He is without sin, cast the first stone" . . . 1 Corinthians 5v12 says "It isnt my responsibility to judge outsiders, but it certainly is your responsibility to judge those inside the church who are sinning".

It's a "judgement" to correct and is totally Biblical.

[powderface]

I agree with you completely. I am so happy to hear when people like yourself stand up for what the word of God really says. Todd Bentley is one of the worst christian deceivers today.

[peranaman]

Richard well said. God TV sells time and airspace - Bentley sells just that. Speaks of the decline of the End Times Church - all prophecised - so no surprises.

[WellspringLover]

Sorry Im mixing up responses. Was responding to someone else. Blessings.

[WellspringLover]

The only reason Todd is being witheld from edifying the church is because the Church will not accept him, forgive him. They do not trust him. I understand, but It is sad. It is so hard to hear the nastry things people say about him. He is a wonderful man. He has so much to give to the Body.

[onethingsailing]

No, God is resisting Todd's lies and pride. The guy is a serial liar. He is a con man. He lies about visions and experiences. He mixes the gospel with lies. He needs to get a job and find humility truth and purity.

[WellspringLover]

Do you honestly believe that his intentions are for his own glory, to prey on others for himself! You do not know Todd. You do not know what his marriage was like! When someone gets into a place of edifying the Church the Lord uses them! And when the Lord used Todd in ministry he gave Todd grace to preach. To edify the church. Grace to lead. Todd fell from that position. He sinned. Yet, because he sinned does not take away what the Lord has given him. Who he is.

[564bay]

If you believe the bible then Todd cannot be restored to leadership.Rick Joyner does not have the right to say its business as usual.The Pastor is only saying what the Word says.He can be restored to Christ but not to leadership..On Rick Joyners site they claim Todd did more for the gospel than anyone else in ten years .Wow

[goodegirl50]

I am actatully very saddened by all this so called Judgement and so called restoration YES we all need to be rebuked bu we also nned to be Forgiven .

I have no intention of responding to this any more ... God Bless

[goodegirl50]

well u have totally missed the point Sin is Sin what ever it is doesnt have to be what Todd did exactly ,, I am Sorry you feel upset by this but thats and there are more important things to get upset about like people going to hell

[goodegirl50]

an No I wldn;t accuse Paul of he same coz I;m not accusing any one of anything just fact stating...so i I am not going to get intoo a debate with u as I have more important things to do ,,, I wish u all the best ....

[rtaylor1275]

We are not judging we are rebuking! You would accuse Paul of the same. I haven't run off with an intern thus man should not be in any pulpit. No place for biblical integrity in your comment this is about restoration not judging God will that in time to come.

[stuart7034]

@rtaylor1275 richard could u contact me

[goodegirl50]

I think richard you need to remember He who is without Sin cast the first STONE!!!

We are not here to Judge!!!!!!!!

[TruthJesusAloneSaves]

@goodegirl50 - Well we are not suppose to judge those outside of the faith, nor are we to judge the motives of other people's hearts'. But 1 Corinthians 5:12-13 does instruct us to judge those who claim to Christians. "What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside? God will judge those outside. Expel the wicked man from among you." This man was shacking up with his mom, or mother-in-law. Should The Apostle Paul not have Judged?

[TruthJesusAloneSaves]

@goodegirl50 - As well 2 Timothy 3:16 says, ""All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness,". Their are proper ways to judge, and improper ways to judge. What Pastor Richard is doing, would fall into the proper judgment category.

Blessings!

[WellspringLover]

I hate videos like this. Forgive Todd, and let God be the judge of him.

[mathtutorboy]

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Amen and good job brother!!!!

[goodegirl50]

U and me both !!!!!

[MatthewHudghton]

ah yes agree with you. Its really annoying though well good people get sucked in by this kind of trash.

Loved the Tozer quote btw, that was a good one and very true. Often guys invovled like this are emphasising new special spiritual power, when in comparison to the power of God Spirit at work in the early church, it is fruitless, weak, pathetic and laughable. want church more like Acts none of this garbage.

[TruthJesusAloneSaves]

Thanks for speaking out.... I was previously involved in the "prophetic movement", and the Lord used guys like you who spoke truth, to bring me out.. Blessings on you!

[BillyVeePersonal]

Thank you sir! I have been saying this for years but I am just a regular guy in the sense that I do not hold a position of authority in the church as a teacher or pastor. Our teachers and pastors who are caught up in this deception need to hear this from other teachers and pastors. So, thatnks again!

[savedbygrace1972]

Well said Pastor, Thank God keep speaking out the truth and stand against Clowns like this Bentley!

[Spenofold]

"Clowns in the circus" very articulately put. Rich, spot on my friend, keep shining the light.

[curvalecce]

A forceful post, but accurate and much needed. It's almost impossible to believe Bentley could have the utter gall to make return, and sickening to see how many 'Christian' leaders are still willing to back him up.

The real problem, for me, is the spiritual pain charlatans like Bentley inflict on the innocent and trusting - and all for the clink of ready money.

[alamo11]

I believe that when he married the woman he committed adultary with, he should have stepped down permenantly
