Dear #ihopkc family, this has been an incredibly difficult season and the news of Stuart and IHOPKC’s relation to Mike has struck me to the core. I don’t have rehearsed or vetted words, just a broken and contrite heart. I want you to know that I love and cherish you all deeply.

The Apostles never spoke of “accepting yourself” or “being comfortable with who you are.” . They spoke of a transformation of a person into the person of Christ.

My heart is breaking for the broken. Oh God, have mercy and forgive us for our sins and the sins of our fathers. I ask healing and restoration for all the afflicted and mercy on all who have come short. Tammy and Jane Does, I am so sorry for what you’ve been through. The pain.
Words cannot express the anger, shock, heartbreak, and sadness we have experienced as we have learned of allegations and testimonies of sexual abuse and manipulation concerning Mike Bickle, founder of IHOPKC. We believe that Mike Bickle sexually abused and manipulated Jane Doe.

Right now we're pretty well positioned to hand the next generation a version of Christianity that requires no sacrifice, no Cross, no suffering, no prayer, no fasting, no radical obedience, and no holiness. A feel-good faith that is powerless and dead.

The church is called to stand for God’s purposes for Israel regardless of how we are treated or how the Jewish people (largely) respond to the gospel. Like Jesus.

Don’t forget that the fastest growing churches in the world are in the most ideologically oppressive, antichrist, anti-human rights cultures on the earth. As corrupt as societies get, the gospel is still, and will always be the POWER of God for salvation. Take heart. 🧵.

My Sunday message to our local family highlighted that God is committed to shaking and disrupting any system, institution, or individual life for the sake His glory. We all must draw nearer the Cross, that is our security and hope. The place of repentance, humility, and love.

The book of Daniel and Revelation, in particular, show that the earth is not conquered by Christians, but by Christ at His coming. Christians are conquered by the Antichrist (Dan 7:21, 25; Rev 13:7) the Antichrist is conquered by Jesus (Dan 2:34, 35, 44, 7:11, 26, Rev 19:15,20).

War in the nations. War in economies. War in the cities. War in societies. War on campuses. War in the church. War in houses. With the way the world is, it should be no wonder that so many will readily accept a demonic false peace, even at the cost of the faith.

If the gifts of the spirit ceased there would be a verse explicating stating so. If God’s purposes for ethnic Israel ceased there would be a verse explicitly stating so. The Lord is awakening the Church to the necessity of the Spirit and His purposes to save and redeem Jacob.
