  • Bet ppl say u can't change that too but guess what its the power if Jesus Christ

  • Ppl just don't want to change its a great church biblical preaching and awesome ppl im 19 gave my life to God at 15 git saved from homosexuality praise God

  • i love The Door!

    

  • I used to go to Bullhead City,Arizona church..We moved to Oregon...The Bullhead Pastor has been Pastoring in Bullhead for over 20 years..We are going to go back to a sister of our home church..Which will be The Door in Springfield, Oregon..They preach on sin and they deal with sin..Heck, I should not like them as I did sin and there were consequences..But I had a repentant heart, seems like some of these bashers want their sin without consequences..Not biblical..

  • this are all lies , it is NOT true , my testifie is that Jesus changed my whole life in this church , HALELUJAH !

    so i thank God for all HE has done ,

    now i dont have to live in sins anymore ,

    surf on the internet for more positive testifies , you will find them ! but only if you Want , we ve all got a free wil , God bless you !

  • @Hope09full Did you have to live in 'sins' before? Was someone forcing you to live a negative lifestyle?

  • I don't count the secular media or Rick Ross as being reliable witnesses to judge a church. To call something a cult you have to know what is not a cult. To a non-christian all christian churches might as well be cults. However I am still trying to find out the truth about this church from some reliable non-biased witnesses.

  • @davidkeithbecket Talk to the people that the Door / Potters House spits out the back door after using them up. That should be a reliable source!

  • @ekkertmal99 there is one in the city I live in. It actually seems quite good, but it does concern me that they are connected to leaders who are 'always right' like this. But some people are obviously really blessed at these churches but I think that is because God sees these people's hearts and is blessing them for their loyality to him even if they are unaware of the church's problems

  • @davidkeithbecket If you ask any pastor in the PH what kind of credentials or education they have, you'll find out none of them have any formal eduction. Would you put your life in the hands of someone who's never stepped foot inside a college classroom? They've destroyed many lives because of ignorant counselling and leadership. Go to a church that has education standards for their pastors.

  • @ekkertmal99 well I mean peter and john were 'unschooled, ordinary men' I think bible college can help but I think there is the idea in some Christian circles that Bible college equals knowledge of the bible and/character which it often doesn't. I know people who have never had formal training and know both God and their bibles far better than those who have. But that wasn't really what you were saying I know, you were more getting at people who have neither character nor bible knowledge right?

  • @davidkeithbecket If you need surgery, do you want a doctor that's never been to med school? If you're on death row, don't you want a an ambulance chaser, or a lawyer whos an expert in death penalty cases? A pastor can have good intentions, but if all he can tell you is to trust god and right will come out right, in regards to a broken marriage ,for example, he's not doing his job. That's what a lot of PH pastors do and peoples' lives are destroyed because of their ignorance.

  • @ekkertmal99 what I would is someone who has real faith in God, knows how to persevere, resist sin,knows the scriptures and knows how to help/love others. there are biblical requisits for 'pastor' but none mention a degree. A worldly qualification may both help or hinder with some of these things. eg a counseling degree may have both sound advice and rubbish advice in it. It sounds like they are giving very pat answers and don't really know what the word says or how to help people practically

  • @davidkeithbecket No matter how differently people believe, human behavior and human problems are the same. It seems logical to me if someone wants to make it his mission in life to help people, whether through religion or otherwise, he would want to make use of all the tools available. Wisdom and knowledge comes from all corners of the world. Seeking that wisdom from only one source would be limiting, to say the least.

  • @ekkertmal99 yes I agree. However you also need a 'yardstick', or ultimate authority by which to measure wisdom, or else you don't know if it is wise or not. As a Christian I believe the Bible is the ultimate authority on truth, seeking wisdom is actively encouraged by the Bible and I wish more pastors would study, but it also says that 'the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom'. As in if you start with false presuppositions about God it's possible to get dumber the more you learn.

  • @davidkeithbecket Even the bible sais that people perish for lack of knowledge. I think it's our responsibilty to educate ourselves, not just about christian things but also about the world around us. Historians like to say: if you ignore the mistakes of the past, you're bound to repeat them. You can be satisfied with what a church pumps into your head, but aren't you selling your self short?

  • @ekkertmal99 yes I think the Bible, especially Proverbs, really encourage learning. To love the Lord with all your mind is to study seeking God. I see God in science, art, everywhere I look points to him, his truth, his order, his beauty. And I think you are right Christians need to use their minds and study. And also to be like the Bereans in acts and check the scriptures for themselves to see if what preachers are saying is true

  • @davidkeithbecket It's well documanted in the CFC's own history that many aspiring pastors from other organizations were lured into the CFC in the 70s and 80s, under the guise that they could become pastors without a college education. They justified it by saying: "There isn't time for school, the end is coming soon". Of course it sounds good to a young pastor, not to have to spend the time and effort educating himself. He can get the same prestige by kissing the ass of this guy, Mitchell!

  • @ekkertmal99 During the generation that has passed since that time, how many lives have been destroyed by inept, incompetent counselling? How many potential careers, marriages and lives have been derailed by bad advice from CFC pastors?

    How many suicides? The Felloship doesn't bother to keep track of the people they kick out the back door, while bragging about their success around the world, supposedly, saving souls.

  • @ekkertmal99 hmm, yes that sounds pretty bad. Sounds like a case where the words themselves are ok, because the bible does say we are in the end times. But maybe the heart motivation behind it is wrong. Especially if gaining 'high' positions is attained thru becoming the leaders dog or a little replica. I've seen this is many ministries, where people are not chosen to lead because of their character and gifting, but rather because they are suck ups or parroters of the main leader

  • If you love doing drugs,drinking and every thingels under the sun that brings destruction into your life then the potters house isnt for you .And yes the blood and word of CHRIST does wash.AMEN!!!

  • @tonguesofgrace If you love manipulating people and stealing their dreams and aspirations, simply for the purpose of controlling them for your own gratification, you should become a pastor at the Christian Fellowship Ministries!

  • @ekkertmal99 You are free to worship GOD where ever you want i listend to andrew wommack from colorado springs colorad arnold murra of the sheperds chapel go to abundant life fellowship when im in cali in beaumont but in my home town i go to the potters house no condemnation brother im free!!!!AMEN

  • @tonguesofgrace They must have relaxed their standards then. When I was there, they always frowned upon associating with other churches. Don't lie to yourself. There's plenty of condemnation at the PH! Ask some of your friends that are no longer there. How many friends and family members have you abandoned out of loyalty to your pastor?

  • Im a servant of Jesus Christ not man Luk 4:18The Spirit of the Lord is upon me because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poorhe hath sent me to heal the broken hearted to preach deliverance to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind to set at liberty them that are bruised

    Luk4:19To preach the acceptable year of the Lord

  • @tonguesofgrace What does that mean? Your imaginary friend in the sky is on your side? The Muslim fanatics and Mormon polygamists say the same thing. Does it change the world? Not at all!

  • dedeur-sekte.jouwweb.nl dit is 1 grote sekte..gevaarlijk oordeel zelf of vraag het aan ex leden,zoek een gezonde kerk mensen, en blijf god trouw,vertel en ieder over hem en zijn zoon jezus, en geef geld aan de armen ,maar niet aan deze kerk

  • Its not living like a puppet, Its living Godly and Living by the thurth witch is in Jesus Chirst our Lord and Savior....

  • @makeupbeauty83 Who defines what truth and living for god is for you? The leaders of the PH / Door, right? They also teach you to distrust and discard any opinions that challenge what they teach. That's not living like a puppet?

  • go to the door in elpaso. its so amazing and i love it! god is good.

  • @georgiejordan What's the difference between the Door in El Paso and any other Door? As in controlling and manipulating people!

  • went there for 7 years thank god i came to my senses.phc and the door are manipulating young naive kids and when you start to question anything they do now your a back slider.1 time i stayed with acouple and they put a piece of paper on the milk carton saying do not drink now their pastors in copperas cove texas what a joke if their christians then im the pope!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @bbpettey That's right. Most of the guys that become pastors at the Door/ Potters House are the good story tellers and showboaters, not the ones that have a heart for and try to love people. It's whoever has their head farthest up his pastors ass, that gets sent out to pastor a church and ruin more lives. Don't get me going about how they're completely uneducated on top of that.

  • @teagan73191 You have no idea whatsoever. Another blind follower of a man's vision who has diverged from what may have started as a genuine Holy Spirit directed movement at one time. Will God save & reach out to people in PH? Sure -He will work with what He has to. Are they without serious fault in their treatment of a substantial number of believers & in their ardent unteachability over things they should deeply repent of? Not on your life.

    The emperor has some serious holes in his underwear!

  • cult

    

  • @bbpettey Certainly. Being kInd I would say cultic at best. Cult at worst. Depends on whether or not your particular Potter's pastor is a saved and decent man who by Spirit leading does not want to harm the sheep. Ones I have met will treat you as expendable & when you cant take anymore will denounce you as a rebel & backslidder who has no hope in the Lord anymore.

  • such a blessing to be apart of this church :) godbless ps mitchell.

  • @Nozik05 How has it blessed you?

  • brainwashing?! Bahahaha That's a joke, The Door is great church, and maybe they all do use some of the same words and aren't that original, but really, let me know when you find a perfect church. Debbie's report is nothing like it really is.

  • @teagan73191 Yeah thats coz you are in the cult...

  • hahaha! brain washingg :P thats cute (:

  • Horrible church, was in potters house phoenix as a kid..they got me off the streets :) guess what I hate your church.

  • Question all who presume to be leaders/Teachers. Keep in mind the news u watch is controlled info and the media will bend the info to show u what they want u to believe. Seems like a couple of isolated issues happen the media is all over it trying to discredit the whole worldwide org.ha ha What about the issues of politicians? how come we don't discredit their new world order? Because we're programmed(TV) not to.who's really practicing mind control?why do they call shows programs/programming?

  • wayman mitchells a homophobic bigot.. nuff said

  • hey hold up man, just because someone shares a negative experiance suffered, doesnt mean they arehell bound gods work hater's man!! whats wrong with you? just like yall christians to judge like that...typical man. why dont u chill and take their prospective maybe they really were done wrong. i may not know bout the bible but man why u label that man?i knoa that aint right

  • Comment removed

  • We still plant churches with the same name! God wasn't slowed down! I LOVE EVERYONE WHO COMMENTED ON THIS EITHER ON YOUTUBE OR IN THE CLIP! WETHER THEY WERE FOR OR AGAINST US! THATS WHAT WE ARE TAUGHT.... Many other churches are just as good as ours. The fact that we were attacked shows that we are doing something right. Jesus wasn't just attacked he was CRUCIFIED for our sins.... SO THANKS BE TO GOD FOR OUR PROSICUTION! AMEN

  • I've been going to the Potters House in the UK for 4-5 years and they've never told me what to do or tried to restrict me in any way. This is but a handful of people, what about the hundreds of changed lives through the door/potters house ministries

  • or a total wack job

    i opt for the latter

  • Comment removed

  • Yes, he's a General all right! Like Kim Jung-il, the dictator of North Korea. If he'd dye his hair black, got some black rimmed glasses and and put on a jumpsuit, he'd look just like him too! He theaches his people the same mentality!

  • wow dissin the troops.. that was a coward move. and questioning other christians spirituality wow your dirty man

  • potter's house is a self righteous legalistic cult built on a false spirit, the man of sorrows would be kicked out of the building by the macho christians who run such covens, there is no brokenness or contrition there, only empty triumphalism and loads of shouting, repent and get out before its too late!

  • Comment removed

  • I pray no weapon formed against Pastor Wayman Mitchell shall prosper, every tongue and every word raised against him Lord, cast it to the ground. In the name of Jesus, Amen!

  • i,m a door member for 13yrs and got to say i am glad that god put in one of these churches that preaches the gospel

    people who talk bad about the church they have a problem with god and not the church

  • Actually, it's the other way around, apsjr1. We don't have any problems with god. We have problems with people damaging and destroying lives in god's name.

  • those people damaged their own lives, not because they left our church, but because they left god. What we preach is truth and the truth and built up many 1000's of lives. bitter backsliders have not stopped the the kingdom of god, not saying we are the only church preaching truth or that is "truly saved" but we are of only a handful mainly because we're not afraid to believe in the WHOLE bible, even the weird or strange parts like speaking in tongues. nothing unbiblical with us

  • dcr3:

    You say you're not afraid to believe the whole bible? What about the part that says: 'Honor your mother and father'? How many parents have lost their kids to the PH because pastors told young converts, that they didn't need to listen to their parents, if they're not 'saved'? Kind of contradicts the PH's obsessive doctrine on submitting to headship. Submit to the pastor, but rebel agianst your parents.

  • MATT 10:34-39.... know your subject before speaking.

  • I dont think pastor from PH said that....maybe their parents dont allow their son and daughter to attend and listen to the word of god in PH.....I think you should try to attend in PH to know and feel the power of god

  • @tthotabigne47

    I don't think you know my experience better than I do. I'ts ok to rebel against your parents, but it's a sin to question anything pastor says? Double standard!

    Go back to PH? Been there done that. Not going to backslide into stupidity and ignorance.

  • Comment removed

  • Hey Chick, are you saying that if you just pray and serve "him", everything will be OK? Then you don't have to face facts and deal with issues? Sounds pretty ignorant to me. When I was at the Door, we used to laugh at the Mormons and their 'burning of the bosom' doctrine. Now I can't help but laugh at your ideas of solving problems. Screw your friends and family over, then ask 'god' to convict their hearts if they don't listen to your 'wonderful' testimony. Why not act real and be real?

  • not this church. and ekkertmal i own a tv actually 2 wut on telivision doesnt go against Jesus wt its cool 2 be gay on tv its cool 2 have casual sex, violence,rape etc. its hard to not be offended by telivision.  man please prey yall get rid of this bitterness in ur heart u dnt hve 2 cme here to serve God just serve him and seek him itll be ok

  • rick ross is a freaking atheist man! are u blind fools! this was nothin but a demonic attack read the bible w/out twisting it im not mad at yall im just sad instead of uniting u all want to divide i would have been dead if i didnt get saved God was present the night i got saved and Gods presence wouldnt have been w/ some cult and im not talkin about getting goose bumps frm the Holy Ghost im talking CHANGE he turned my hate into love i used to be  a n.t.g.blood now thats a cult thats brain washin

  • why dont potters house people hang out with christians from other churches???are they not christians of course they are. the potters house is an occult went there for 7 years.these people dont even know what really goes on in the potters house i do they serve the pastor not JESUS

  • mann i have been saved in the door church for 6 yrs............ all it sounds like on here is that your mad and you are looking for someone to blame i have been to different churches and this church is for real it's the real deal......... it sounds like when the scribes and pharices were coming against Jesus for doing his fathers will... this fellowship is living for Jesus and they are doing is preaching what the bibles says. but you are looking for someone to blame for your sins

  • I am proud to be a part of the potter's house fellowship. We don't brain wash anybody only God can wash your brain clean and put u in your rite mind. I gave my life to Jesus at the age 9. I have no regrets!! I thank God 4 true believers who still r on fire 4 Jesus no matter what!! I will serve the Lord, not man or the world.

  • your time will come.

  • this organzation is controlling i used to go to the door in tucson arizona but i don't go there anymore. Those people in the door are trying to be God and they do think cause there at that church that there good people and other people aren't and they are very judge mental.

  • @AdamBishop0 dude your wacked the potters house care about ppl and helping them live better lives. the have gotton so many free from alcoholism and drugs ect. I have witnessed it my self. I have not seen anything bad at all. you have been decieved....

  • fortunately, most people leave the POTTERS HOUSE after they see what really goes on in there - i was there for 7 years. God dosent allow revival in the Potters House...

  • Because Luke-Warm Christians will not make it. You'll never make it to heaven listening to garbage on the radio or TV. Or hangin'out with sinners. You cant hold hands with God AND the Devil at the same time. God is not playing games. ---When churches dont preach the truth about TURNING from sin, they're misleading people. ---I dont know about you but...with all the garbage in my head from the World, "My brain needed to be washed!" Jesus saves

  • Didn't Jesus hang out with sinners? Wasn't he more at home with the people on the street, than with the self righteous religious people?

    What is sin? Not going to a Fellowship church?

    If that's the case, sign me up! I was paranoid of the "World", when I left CFM. But I found out, what CFM tought me about the "World" was bullshit. I've met more stand up, quality people out here, than I ever did in tha Fellowship.

  • If your brain was full of garbage before, it's because you put it there. You are supposed to be in control of what you fill your mind with. Don't blame the world, or what's on TV for the garbage in our head. You know how to change the channel. I'm in control of what I accept into my mind. I don't need a pastor to approve of what I read, watch, or listen to. I can handle that myself. That's why I seek knowledge through education. "The people perish for lack of knowledge".

  • It's funny how CFM peeps will say how the media is so evil and how the standards of their church are there for protection and accountability yet here they are on Youtube hanging out, watching stuff! I love cmonguyman's statement about his brain needing washing cuz of the world's garbage yet where is he posting this? LOL! How about a nice big portion of double standard anyone?

  • I was at that crusade at the Phx. Civic Plaza when the confrontation with Rick Ross took place. We considered the guys that stood up to him heroes. Some scored enough points in their local church to become pastors. Now they're middle age. I wonder how many of them feel they should have done something else with their lives. The only skill they have is to manipulate others to follow them, the way they follow their own pastors. I'm glad I don't have to live like a puppet the way they do.

  • CFM is good for certain kinds of people.

    Drug addicts, hookers, gamblers, perverts and homosexuals and gangsters.

    If you don't apply to the above, you don't need to be there.

  • Not that your generalising or anything... lol.

  • I have been a part of the chandler az church for over 25 years have never been, brainwashed, told how to live my life who to associate with etc..I have friends who left the church who I still assciate with and who come to visit from time to time no problem. My daughter was raised in church, never did drugs got married a virgin and is now a missionary's wife in a foreign nation.You people are the haters, I Love cfm and have seen many amazing things over the years.

  • You say these people are haters. Could you please tell me why Mitchell refuses to speak to hundreds of pastors whove left the fellwoship including his formost disciples Greg Johnson and Hank Houghton? He has even cut off his son in law Mike Mastin. Mitchell in a U.K conference sermon {nov 2002} claimed that God would strike those who left in the last exodus with lightning and warned that the same might happen to any who shook their hand. Mitchell even takes other christians to court.

  • I am glad for you GS, that the CFM has been a success for you. As a teen, I left my parents for the CFM, got married there. When the marriage fell apart, I was alone. Who was there for me? My parents, not my CFM brothers, including you. When my children grow up, I hope that they will want a wider view of the world than what the CFM offers. The CFM has destroyed many well meaning young people. I was lucky that I could pull myself out of that low place in my life. That's not hate, just the truth.

  • this is so dumb i've gone to this church all my life and not once did they try and brianwash me or convert me they only spoke the truth

  • Wayman Mitchell is head of one of the most dangerous cults in the world of organized Pentecostal religion. Fear,shame,condemnation and intimidation are his 4 favorite demons. All employed to bind & enslave the weak minded as well as the uneducated.

  • Sinners huh? Then what does that make you guys? I suppose you lot think your saints then do you

  • JUGS!!!

  • Oh, yeah that waymanmitchellDOTcum porno website put up by the GAY guy from Potters House in Lismore, Oz. Yeah, that guy who has 100 Yahoo & Utube ID's! What's his name, Nick Sayers? Yeah! Of course he is 00Nurofen00 who posts here anonymously. What an ass clown!

  • anytime you run a church that has standards your going to run into persecution from not only sinners but lukewarm christians. i think its funny. i mean you can diss them all you want but its the same as when witnessing to a sinner and they are trying to argue with you, its just the guilt manifesting from the convictions you are having from being a luke warm half hearted christian.

  • God bless you who persacute us

    but the more you do that

    the more we grow and the more our faith stands out

    just remember Jesus is the judge and you will be judge on judgement day

    God bless you

  • This is a bitter angry religion. There's no focus on personal relationship with the Lord, it's all about kissing the pastors ass and paying your dues to keep ones payments up on the salvation that Jesus paid for in full for those who will only believe!

    Can anyone say cultic micromanagement of peoples lives in the church? No wonder they aren't growing, no wonder they aren't winning the world for Jesus and no wonder they are falling apart at the seams!

  • We at CFM forgive you for your slander. I hope you see the truth before it is too late. Jesus died on the cross for you to set you free.

    Nick.

    see pottersclub . com

  • Accuse Rick Ross all you want; just coz he professed to be gay, you have it in for him. It's obvious that maybe you're upset he came out of the closet & just jealous coz you haven't? For the record he doesn't hate all Christians. Just phoney ones like YOU! You really should see a shrink, cause you're sucha hater! I never seen as much hate from any church as the PH! You & your dashboard confession idol Wayman Mitchell rank the top haters in the religous world!

  • What sensationalized rubbish. They must have run out of real news for a week or two. Rick Ross is a self confessed homosexual who hates all christians not just Potter's House. Debbie Christiansen commited suicide after Rick Ross deprogrammed her! They don't tell you that bit! If she was raped, why were the authorities not called? The only sound information on the clip is from CFMers!

    Nick.

    see waymanmitchell . com

  • Oh, c'mon Nick, you KNOW why! El Paso, TX PH Pastor Paul Campo didn't want media attention! He took the word of a fornicating/child molesting man in his church, who was in a leadship position, who #1 denied he 'raped' a 16 yr old girl, #2 he accused her of seducing HIM, #3 took Wayman's lead that women are to blame for sin in the world, are all harlots & Jezebels! At least he didn't do the satanist ritual & shove her hand in a pail of blood!

  • Nick, you incompassionate jackass, if you watch this clip you can see this girl is already suicidal & she has not had ANY deprogramming from Rick Ross or anyone else! I've dealt with suicide intervention & you haven't so shut your damn pie hole because you not only do not have any love, you have not one clue what you are talking about. Per usual! Ignoramous!!

  • Nick, your pretty heartless for a Christian. As a former police officer for the feds I can tell you that 92% of raes go unreported to the authorities by wemon who have had this crime done to them. I was in the CFM for almost 15 years and I see you doing the exact same thing as I did while I was there. You cover the problems with propoganda and fail to deal with any of the real issues. Tell me, can you name one fault of Wayman? Just one?

  • in six years in PH i havent heard anything not biblical, seen awesome miracles when Ps Mitchell prays for the sick,and heard more truth in one of his 45 in sermons than in years of college and university.he is dealt with me with lots of love and doesnt even know me.

    you attacking the wrong man

  • We are a bible believing church and so as Jesus was one minded so are we, some things are wrong and that's what the bible says, so that's what we believe. The truth is that Christians should do their best to live righteously because God is awesome and deserves the best we can give, not the bare minimum.

  • We are a bible believing church and so as Jesus was one minded so are we, some things are wrong and that's what the bible says, so that's what we believe. The truth is that Christians should do their best to live righteously because God is awesome and deserves the best we can give, not the bare minimum.

  • That isn't my experience at all, as a church we allow God to change people. All i do know is that when i was a teenager and i left church i spoke against the church because i wanted to justify why i was leaving, i think that's the case with a lot of these negative stories.

  • I'm a former member of The Potter's House Church and I am here to tell you about my personal experience, which was a HORRIBLE one.The pastor had kidnapped my daughter and had tried to sell her to another couple in another state.

  • this is preposterous i'm sure you're making that up, where is your proof? what was the name of the pastor?

  • I love this church a cult wouldn't change a person life. It's pretty self explanatory these people are all backsliders in the video.

    There just a bunch phony loser with times on there hands.

  • Oh yeah, right, for sure man, you got it. That's it dude, "A cult wouldn't change a person's life..." ayuh ahem, can you say Jonestown or Koresh & the Branch Davidians? That's what those people said too. Fish in a fishbowl have no idea that rivers, lakes or oceans exist. They're ignorant of those things the way cult members have no idea that God is outside the church.

  • These people aren't claiming to be christians, you are. They are more fair with this church than you.

  • I think it is very interesting that you have no interest whatsoever in the harm these people have experienced from being in this church. You say, "It's not MY problem!" and that my friend is the Spirit of Cain! ("Am I my brothers keeper?") Kinda misses the boat with the whole "Do unto others" & "love thy neighbor as thyself" thing as well.

  • Of course I am harder on them than these reporters. Their job is not to contend for the faith or debate the issues as it is to just report what is being said & what's happening. Perhaps Jesus should did a newscast about moneychangers in the Temple rather than kick those jerks outa there? Maybe Paul shoulda said, "You Galatians be good boys now!" instead of confronting them for their CULTIC Potters House ways!

  • I said the source is secular, "non-religious." Don't twist my words like it sounds like your doing to these people. I don't know if the reporter is saved any more than I'll bet you know about these people. By the way I really like the preaching of the guy in the wheelchair. I'd like to hear more.

  • No, YOU said, QUOTE: "Its as much as you could expect from someone without a revelation of saved by grace." which is a JUDGEMENTAL attitude about the secular media & news reporters where people like YOU & the PH pass judgement on all of them assuming that they are unsaved & reprobate. It's this condemning & judging everyone else on the planet that makes me sick of the PH & others like you!

  • This is not a bad report from a secular source. Its as much as you could expect from someone without a revelation of saved by grace. Hopefully though, no one claiming to be a christian would be propogating this kind of slander.

  • How do YOU know that these reporters aren't saved? What makes YOU the expert on whether a person has a knowledge of salvation by grace & By the way why are YOU defending a church that teaches salvation by works rather than of faith by grace? There is a BIG difference!

  • How is it that everytime someone complains about how they were treated in the Potters House that person is automatically deemed to be an unsaved person spreading slander? I am beginning to think you are one of Mitchell's right hand men. Ask him why he calls Ron Jones 'human waste'!

  • oh its you rick ross! Please mind your own business. i ou really love the chrisitian world, then just do the will of God, that is if you really hears his word! God loves you sinner!

  • Not even close. Rick Ross is busy. I go much farther than him. I demand CFM act like New Testament church if they are gonna claim to be. Mitch is a false prophet & rebel since his days with 4SQ & he teaches a skewed 'gospel' that preys on peoples fears & collects mucho dinero from them via brainwashing & manipulation techniques straight out of the CIA/military that he learned in the USAF post Korea. He mixes grace & law & teaches Galatianism abomination & blasphemy!

  • Did you know that when pastors have "Revivals" with an evangelist...they get together and talk about what's going on in church...so that the evangelist can preach about those things...and attack members...and so on..

  • Yeah, just another way the PH has form of Godliness but lacking the power thereof. All the exterior signs of being a real/deal ie tongues to the nth degree, peeps praying at altar 4days, legs growing & evangelists with a 'word' from God. Everything except the Love of Jesus - there's the REAL POWER and it's missing in PH!

  • Pastors go after those people who fornicate but refuse to deal with gossips and backstabbers in the church. IMO, those two are more deadly and will cause more damage in the long run.

  • Damn that's messed up...Mr. Wayman O'Mitchell thinks he's a damn celebrity...but he's jus a sack of old bones who will gladly tell pastors to disown their own kids...he Put my sisters on Probation....they couldn't go to church for 6 months...well they never went back...I'm soooo glad...thanks W.Mitchell...

  • One couple in The Door were dating w/o pastors consent. He found out & accused them of fornicating (not!), forbid them dating or sitting on same side of church. They decided to get married. He made them wait 1 yr w/o dating & forbid them having sex for 2wks after wedding!

  • see waymanmitchell . com for proof that Ken and others have had numerous identities on chat groups in yahoo, and most probably are the same few people here, but with 10-30 usernames!

  • Jesus loves you but everyone else thinks your a cunt! lol.

  • Wayman Mitchell doesn't seem like a cult leader, what is too much control?

  • Having read waymanmitchell . com - what's the point 00? I was at the Door in 1980-81 and at that particular Prescott conference when Wayman Mitchell rebelled against his headship in the 4 Square Church...His website is a 3rd person retelling of his side of the story on the history of the cult - one should obviously not expect any honesty from Wayman on why he chose to make himself Pope of a new denomination.

  • Mitchell was tired of the dead religiousness of the foursquare church. The ordination of women, the dead bible schools etc. They wouldn't admit that Mitchell's church was exploding in growth without dead religious boundries. They pushed Mitchell out. Ask any of the FourSquare ministers of that day, they know about the propecies concerning God raising up another restorer who would come from within, but be pushed out. Give Neil Prosser a call.

  • The 4Square denomination has over 30,000 churches Nick. I WAS THERE when Mitchell REBELLED. Can't you see that the hallmarks of cultism is thinking you're part of the "elite" or "special" in some way. Brainwashing always entails a feeling that the others are "weak" and "don't measure up" in some way. How is it possible that "God's greatest move on earth" denomination only has 1500 churches in 40 YEARS!! C'mon Nick! Is a mere 0.0015% of the worlds population a "tremendous" move of god?

  • Nick, you can re-write Rebel Wayman Mitchell's history all you want but I was there & you were a stain in your daddy's boxers! You don't know shit! Truth: Mitchell defied Foursquare from 1955-83 & was given an ultimatim to pay his tithes or leave. He had a woman pastor 'Lucille' in Phoenix, AZ for over 20 years! Those prophecies applied to Jack Hayford NOT Mitchell! As for Bible schools Mitchell went to 4SQ LIFE Bible college & has an HONORARY degree: He did NOT graduate!

  • The prophecies are 2-fold: 4SQ's restorer within their denomination=Hayford; PLUS a restorer FROM their ranks beyond 4SQ=Chuck Smith/aka/Calvary Chapel. The prophecies in NO WAY fit the disobedient rebel Wayman Mitchell who has never preached the love of God once, mixing law & grace=negating Grace, preaching a misogynist, racist redneck message, using Bob Mumford & Chas Simpson's shepherding/discipleship teachings to start his own tithing pyramid! Fact:4SQ exploded AFTER they kicked Mitch out!

  • Mitchell likes to talk about the prophecies re: 4SQ ie the ones he gave he tried to piggyback onto previous ones given by REAL Godly men in 4SQ that foretold the two restorers Hayford/Smith. Mitch succeeded in proving he is a FALSE PROPHET by predicting 4SQ doom/destruction at Tuscon Conference in 1983. Mitchell is nothing but a FAKE/A PHONEY and an IMPOSTER!

  • Greg Johnson? How about Mike Mastin, Wayman Mitchell's SonInLaw married to daughrer Sharon? Wayman disowned her when Mike left PH & refuses to have any contact with the grandchildren! He sends their Xmas cards & gifts back Return To Sender. This is how a man of God acts? Certainly this is a fruit of the spirit... an EVIL spirit!

  • What a joke, people like you always make up rumors and put words into Mitchells mouth. Get a life Ken!

  • Potters Houses are closing their doors abroad & in US. They prey on street kids promising salvation. Once in the PH they are indoctrinated into CULT system of control, manipulation & separatism based on elitism. Fear based loyalty holds them captive via CIA mind control methods w/ repetitive pscho-spiritual abuse they're glued to chairs they're not chained to & serve PH in robotic zombie haze like Manchurian Candidates waiting for magic word.

  • What a joke the Church has almost 1500 branches worldwide! The Split in 2000 was because they rejected false teachings and false prophets in the Pensacola/Torronto mess, that has all but fizzed out now. CIA methods? What a joke! Must be some good smoke in Colorado Ken!

  • 00 - What a glaring example of a small, brainwashed mind you have. 1500 churches in 40 YEARS of cult ministry is NOT success - it's OBVIOUSLY FAILURE. The Assemblies of God plant 12,000+ churches a YEAR!!! CFM church members comprise 0.0015% of the worlds population. Ooooh, what a powerful move of god - NOT!

  • So would you call hisong a success? Now that they have has ALL the Torronto Blessing preachers like John Arnott and his brood, and now oneness Pentecostal money pimp T.D. Jakes, you think they have arrived? The AOG in my town had a mens night a few years back. I was out front of a pub/bar, and they all came out rotten drunk. What a powerful move! Yeah right. Look up Philip Powell of CWM. He was General secretary of the AOG in OZ. The Mormons are big too. Quantity never replaces quality.

  • Quantity represents souls Nick. WTF would the CFM know about quality? They've produced 1000's of members who are unable to think or function outside the cults control. A group of small minded, intellectually challenged, hyper-judgmental, emotional cripples is not what one would consider "quality" Nick! P.S...T.D.Jakes & the rest of TBN crowd are obvious frauds. I'll be picketing Benny Hinn again when he comes to Phx in April

  • The PH in this town has moved several times in last couple yrs each time to a smaller cheaper bldg. Cars in parking lot are less & less every week. The PH cannot retain keep people! Only ONE pastor in PH who was with Mitchell in beginning of CFM: Harold Warner Tucson, AZ All others split!

  • Yeah...I use to like how Greg Johnson preached...he was one of the originals and I was shocked that he left...anyhow...Most of the Youth leave the church once they are old enough to leave thier home...Even most of the Preachers Kid's I know have left too...the church relies on the young kids and new converts that don't know any better...

  • Just listen to this clip...there use to be 6 churches in TUCSON alone...now there are only 2...one is a hole in the wall...the other is Harold Warners...with New People cuss everyone else has left...

  • Ha! The statistics show a rapid turnover of peeps in PH especially since the 1st mass exodus approx 200 pastors & churches left CFM/Door/PH in 1990! In 2000 another large group of pastors & churches left & signs indicate repeat B4 2010! Book will incur a mass exodus of peeps!

  • I'm a former member of The Potter's House Church and I am here to tell you about my personal experience, which was a HORRIBLE one.The pastor had kidnapped my daughter and had tried to sell her to another couple in another state.

  • Why not just simply report it to the police? DuH??? Like that is a no brainer. This is probably Ken Haining again pretending to be a victim. Ken is an agnostic who hates CFM, the bible, and Jesus, and will do ANYTHING to slander this powerful move of the Holy Spirit. We forgive you Ken. Jesus loves you and so do we!

  • I don't care if you're a member of the IRA, you are in a CULT! You are the one who hasn't done ANY homework. I have been around PH/The Door/CFC/CFM since 1981. It's patently obvious that you revel in your ignorance, like most PH peeps who get on here, you flaunt it about like your proud of it. Surely U must be!

  • In your opinion maybe, if its so bad and a cult as you say, then why don't more people leave, more and more people are getting saved and staying saved. Your talking rubbish mate!

  • I'm a member of The Potters House in London, England.

    You guys need to do your homework and get saved

  • Funny how PH fails to mention how bitter Wayman Mitchell is at Foursquare & how his actions that led to him being kicked out were the very things that PH folks call us rebels for. The pot calls the kettle black! Mitch was a rebel all along & his bitterness towards Foursquarew is so hypocritical considering THEY made him! If it wasn't for them he'd be shoving burgers thru McDonald's drive thru asking "You want fries with that?"

  • I love how PH people always come back with the "your so bitter and a rebel" response! I must not be bitter because my back doesn't hurt :P but I know for a fact PH is a CULT! lol!

  • Anyone that isn't asleep in CFM knows once you are in it, if you leave the church you are out of God's will according to the message of the Potters House which means that person is backslidden & no longer saved. Leaving Potters House is forbidden because that person won't be right with God when they leave. You can't just get up & go to the church across the street or stay home. You will be called a rebel & backslidden.

  • No, YOU people are bitter! You don't like the truth so you try to discredit the messenger. Shoot me all you want, that doesn't change the facts of what your church & it's leader is. Your church is an abusive CULT and Mitchell is a Cult leader.

  • All these comments come from bitter people who cannot and will not deal with sin. In order for these people to take the focus off their disobediance, that they were perhaps confronted with, they then place blame on other people therefore the church. The church does not preach that If you leave you will go to hell, the clearly state that if you are not right with God you will go to hell.

  • This a CULT that does teach Jesus BUT they use Him and His name to spiritually and psychologically abuse people to control them. They aren't chained to the seats as Mitchell always says, but they don't dare get up and leave for fear they will lose their standing with God. This is EVIL! This church twists God's Word and makes him an angry 'god' who delights in punishing people, which is a LIE! Jesus said, "Anyone who calls on my name, I will in no wise cast out!"

  • They lure people in with am evolving salvation message that begins with Jesus wants to save them and from their they teach you must do 'works' for the church/pastor to maintain the saved status. Anyone who questions or balks at these demands is branded a rebel and a backslider and forced out of the church if they don't repent in spades! It's selling indulgences all over again ie 2 for a dime 3 for a quarter.

  • @ChristianFreeman or ye of little faith

  • Mitchell's CFM ie Door / Potters House makes a mockery of the True Church and make merchandise of all that pertains to. They inflict fear and guilt and demand loyalty, separation from all other Christians outside their 'Door' as well as family, friends and neighbors that aren't in the church. They teach elitism and manipulate churchgoer's for their wallets, time, energy and talents and any other resource the pastor or the 'Head Cheese' Wayman Mitchell sees fit.

  • This is a bitter angry religion. There's no focus on personal relationship with the Lord, it's all about kissing the pastors ass and paying your dues to keep ones payments up on the salvation that Jesus paid for in full for those who will only believe.

  • Can anyone say cultic micromanagement of peoples lives in the church? No wonder they aren't growing, no wonder they aren't winning the world for Jesus and no wonder they are falling apart at the seams!

  • Go to the Slam The Door website and listen to the audio clips! The guy has a dirty mind and perverted mouth. Instead of preaching the Gospel he talks trash to an ignorant audience that applauds him for it! Can anyone say CULT? I can! Been there done that and I slammed the door!

  • And I suppose you believe Wayman Mitchell is? Bushwah! The man was a rebel from the beginning in Foursquare. He has a potty mouth in the pulpit! He runs his mouth about women's breasts in his sermons. That's tame compared to his filthy remarks in mixed company describing a young girl "wiggling her twat"!

  • @ChristianFreeman Or Yeah of little faith
