Posted August 27, 2010 The Next Great Awakening... Day 6, we toured Independence Hall, the Liberty Bell, and the many sites associated with our nation’s founding. In the mean time, David [Barton] and I flew back to New York City to be on the Glenn Beck Show with a group of about 7-8 pastors/Christian Leaders. Lance Wallnau flew in from Dallas to speak to the group in Philadelphia. Lance Wallnau was, as usual, exceptional in his laying out of how to see the culture transformed. After the show, David and I flew back to Philadelphia to catch up with the group once again. - Jim Garlow [1] The quotation above came in the midst of this summer's Next Great Awakening Tour, which was hosted by Pastor Jim Garlow and David Barton, to visit the tourist sights of the First and Second Great Awakenings in America. This quote was from a "quick report" by Garlow, who announced the tour "is going awesome!"[2] The tour included Speaker Newt Gingrich, Gov. Mike Huckabee, Sen. Rick Santorum, Rep. Bob McEwen, Family Research Council's Tony Perkins, along with other notables.[3] Most significantly, the tour featured Lance Wallnau, chief promoter of the controversial New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) doctrine, the 7 Mountain strategy of taking Dominion. This fact gains considerable significance with the news this week, as both Jim Garlow and David Barton are undergoing controversy after partnering in a political/spiritual rally with conservative radio host, Glenn Beck, a Mormon. This event with Beck, and this tour over the summer, are indicative of a new way that the evangelical Right is conducting itself. Why were these high-profile evangelical and political leaders openly fraternizing with Lance Wallnau?! Do they agree with his mandate to "possess and occupy," take "territory," "take the high places," and "conquer"?[4] And how can they possibly call this agenda of aggressive Dominion-mongering a "Great Awakening"? That is the question that we will be addressing in a series of posts in the days to come. Read the entire post: www.herescope.net

Posted August 23, 2010 The Money God By Pastor Anton Bosch Food and material blessings are some of the felt needs, as I discussed in Part 2, and political empowerment is another. The people living in Israel in Jesus’ time had two priorities. The first was for material provision, and the second was for political reform and to be liberated from the Roman overlords. Economics and politics are very closely related and they both impact each other. Jesus did meet people’s needs, and on several occasions fed large crowds miraculously. But in John’s account of the feeding of the five thousand, John mentions men, who as a result of the feeding of the multitude, wanted to take Jesus by force to anoint Him as their king (John 6:14-15). This was a natural response to Jesus meeting their need and shows the danger of appealing to people’s felt needs. Today, many argue that it is good and right for people to want to make Jesus king because He meets their felt needs. But let’s examine this a little closer. Read the entire post: www.herescope.net |

The Dangers of Post Modernism by Professor Johan Malan Ideologically and theologically the early 21st century is characterized by a sharp swing towards postmodernism. This school of thought gradually became established during the past two decades of the previous century but presently enjoys the support of millions of people all over the world. Postmodernism is the frame of mind and lifestyle of the fully liberated man who abandoned all ideologies, traditions and shackles which may in any way have impeded his freedom of thinking and acting. We have to gain clarity on the true nature of postmodernism as well as the most important dangers associated with it. Read the July/August 2010 Newsletter
