Evangelical Churches involved with the Ecumenical Movement




Sadly we also found that some Churches, organizations & colleges belonging for example to The Neo Calvinism- Reformed- (David Platt, Francis Chan, John Piper, Mark Driscoll, etc.); The New Apostolic Reformation (NAR), Mike Bickle, John Arnott, Bill Johnson, Rick Joyner, Todd Bentley, etc.) & The Word of Faith (WoF) movements (Benny Hinn, Kenneth Copeland, Joyce Meyer, etc), (as well as some other  organizations) are in a great majority involved with the ecumenical movement, they have links with one another, and are Dominionist or 'Kingdom Now' theology. Many of them had been warned & rebuked by other pastors, but still continue in their ways. The most painful part is all the people they are causing to fall away from the truth of the gospel.

We always recommend to please pray for all the sheep that are being harmed and deceived by these movements, there are a lot of sincere and God  loving Christians following these wrong teachings, if we get the opportunity to talk to them let us make sure we do it out of love and not because we are trying to win an argument. We work to glorify God, not ourselves.  As the Lord leads please also pray for the leaders and promoters of these movements, there is still hope for many of them, there is nothing impossible for God, remember His mercy endures for ever and there is power to save in the precious blood of Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God.

Some of these leaders are :

-John Arnott, & Carol- (NAR) 'Catch the Fire' former Toronto Airport Fellowship, (a Vineyard group)- Why would God ask us to behave like animals if we were created in His image? and why to do things that are practiced in the occult? (For animal manifestations see Shamans :&  power animals).  "thus saith the Lord, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them." Jer. 10:2Mr. Arnott was a speaker on Fire & Fusion Conf. 2014 evangelicals with Catholics. Also see the 1st picture above with pope Francis.
