		<description>Good question Randy:

We pray, we warn carefully, we watch.
He has put up new web pages, I think you are correct, he's working on a comeback.</description>

		<description>The Bentley comeback is on the move.
Hard to believe, reading all the facts
posted on so many websites.

What can be done in the face of such evil?

Sandy, do you know that Todd does not believe
that God wrote the Bible?
It was posted on the FFM website.
It is written in his book.
Neither does Morningstar Ministries.
They sent me an email saying so.

Be careful who you follow Sandy.
And read 2 Tim 3:16.</description>

		<description>Sandy, I'm not going to bash you at all.:^) 

There are charismatics who have not gone off the rails - for example Dan Edelen at Cerulean Sanctum.
A former superintentent of the AOG in Australia, personal friends of mine who understand the history of their movement and love God, justice and mercy.
The Spirit of God is real, God heals still.

		<description>I've been in meetings with Todd since he started.
Yes, many people in the Charismatic movement are deceived.
Not all of them, but many.
The Spirit of God is real.
God does heal, still today.
I never thought highly of Todd or Bob Jones, or most of the others for that matter.
But I go to a Vineyard Fellowship, and I do enjoy it.
God is there too.
Joy is a fruit of His Spirit also. 
I would also enjoy the Toronto Church.
Though not mentioned here, I encourage you to "check out" Heidi Baker. She is a true "apostle" of God, that is one sent out.
You can be charismatic without being false.
Thanks for giving me the space to share my opinion.
Please don't bash me for it.</description>

		<description>Bill:

What sponsors on this website?

There are no sponsors, no ads, I don't make a cent off BDBO.

Would you point out what you mean please?

Do you understand the difference between a critical spirt and criticism?</description>

		<description>Wow, you are the one making money look at the sponsors on this website. I would suggest you drop the critical spirit and give thanks that people are working to restore a brother in Christ.</description>

		<description>This is so pathetic, it makes one want to cry. We talk about Mormon's, JW's and Scientology followers being deceived. 

The Charismatic Movement is beyond belief in their gullibility and lack of discernment.

And it still goes on throughout the world.</description>

		<description>Bentley never preached the Word of God and this ALONE makes him totally false - Isaiah 8:20; 2 Tim 4:2; 1 Pet 4:11. Jesus and His prophets and apostles preached God’s Word - Bentley didn’t and is therefore revealed as a wolf.

Any person in leadership who endorsed or endorses Todd Bentley, Stephen Strder, John Arnott, Rodney Howard Browne or espouses I.H.O.P. (International House of Prayer), any of the “Kansas City prophets,” the so-called “prophetic” movement, or “apostolic” movement, should not only be rebuked and exposed as false (Rom. 16:17-18; Tit. 1:9-13) but are demonized and need real deliverance from demons.

Any leader who refuses to repent before the LORD for his own wickedness and completely and publicly denounce any and all evil connection with these wolves and their ravenous organizations, is false.</description>

		<description>Agreed Bud.

At the risk of incuring the ire of neo-charismatics - he never had a prayer. This crew got their hooks into him from day one. It does not excuse any of his behavior, it's just observation of the saga.

In an ideal world he'd see his need, and be given an opportunity to retreat for full healing: physical, spiritual, emotional, social, mental.
Be helped by Christians as far away from this deception as possible over a long period of time.  

I believe part of what healing is possible with Bentley would be his realization he has no role as leader, part of the plan would be to help him equip himself to work for a living. 

It's only a matter of time before he's back up on stage being used by his peer group. 
Wantabe 'apostles' using each other; toxic, co-dependent, deceived.  
Just like Paul Cain, or Bob Jones, Bentley's  behavior and bentness will be spiritualized, 'forgiven' and as we are already seeing, the narrative will set him up as martyr. 

And once again thousands will be harmed.

May God be merciful indeed.</description>

		<description>Hello:

The underlying problem concerning Todd Bentley is that history records that he was conditioned and deceived from the beginning–groomed and mentored by those conditioned and deceived before him.

Todd Bentley needs solid, Bible-based Christians to minister to him–not those who were/are part of the problem. 

I pray that God will be merciful and open Todd Bentley’s eyes and ears to the truth, and be born again.

In Christ,
Bud Press</description>
