Testimonies on Various Topics
Latter Rain/Sonship
"Web of Deception"
(pdf format) - by Donna Shuck
Gwen Shaw and her "Endtimes Handmaidens" are an
extreme latter-rain/sonship style group (in fact, a cult)
with metaphysical overtones. They exert a strong controlling
influence over their membership that is difficult to escape.
They are a mystical group promoting angelic encounters and
physical manifestations etc. This testimony from a former
member shows, with copious direct quotes, the depth of error
into which Gwen Shaw has fallen.
Kansas City Prophets
Vintage Metro - My Eight
Years with the Kansas City Prophets, by Don Clasen
"The elite media is like the Mafia. The biggest
sin you can commit with the Mafia is to break the code of
silence."
Former CBS reporter Bernard Goldberg made this statement
on The 700 Club on December 20, 2001. He was being interviewed
about the publication of his book Bias, an expose of liberal
bias in the mainstream media. And as I find so often in
so many things nowadays, I see a direct parallel between
things in our culture and things in the Church. The history
of Kansas City Fellowship for example, is strewn with offences
so egregious as to be scary. But the one unpardonable sin
to commit is to "break the code of silence".
[This] is a story that needed to be told. I know it will
invariably be greeted by many as a treasonous act, as the
one unpardonable sin that cannot be forgiven or committed
without dire consequences. But I'm asking you to grant me
a little space for passion. For the Church world of our
day is a veritable side show of charlatans, heretics, hucksters,
religious politicians, "celebrities," and just
plain untaught leaders who have led the people of God down
a primrose path of ignorance, vanity and abuse. (This
article is in four parts)
The Church
G12 Testimony (One and Two)
by former members of a G12 cell group
These testimonies are from a family caught up in the cell-church
system. Their harrowing story is a very useful explanation
of the personal cost of joining this globalist venture.
The Vineyard
"A Memoir of The Vineyard"
1986-1994 - by Cheryl Thomson
Cheryl is Managing Director of the Strangers
and Pilgrims Ministry. She was there at the start, and has
an intriguing story to tell about the Vineyard.
"Vineyard Experience"
- by Rev. Gordon Williams
Rev. Gordon Williams appeared for several years with Rev.
David Mainse on 100 Huntley Street. He then pastored Good
Samaritan Church, Kitchener. Now an evangelist who travels
extensively across Canada, Rev. G. Williams has the inside
story about the Vineyard.
 "My
Experiences with the Toronto Vineyard" by Rick Friedrich
A personal view by Rick Friedrich of Michigan. This letter
was sent to an [e-mail] list in July 2003 as a member asked
a question about the Toronto Vineyard Movement and the witness
of the Spirit. It is the experiences and conclusions of a
man who lived most of his life in Toronto, Canada on the
West side very near the airport (and the Toronto Airport
Christian Fellowship -- formerly Toronto Vineyard).
Gifts and Manifestations
"Counterfeit Spiritual Gifts"
- Testimony by Gayle Rogers
It really is possible for Christians to be deceived and
lured into false manifestations. Believing herself to be
under the influence of the Holy spirit, Gayle is led deeper
and deepr into a terrifying delusion.
" by Mark Greenwood
A personal testimony of the Toronto Blessing and revival
manifestations in the UK; includes accounts of four main
places in Sheffield that promoted this revival : ‘The
Kings Centre’ (A Charismatic offshoot from House Church),
‘Walkley Baptist’ as then was, ‘St Thomas’s’
(A Charismatic Anglican church in the Crookes area of Sheffield),
and ‘Hope of Sheffield’ (led by an Australian
who had a Pentecostal background).
" by David Husband
Another personal story of an encounter with the Toronto
Blessing and its bizarre manifestations. This account is
a very personal journey through attraction, confusion and
finally truth and enlightenment.
