Movements (Trends, Fads)

Have you heard of Torben Sondergaard and his book, "The Last Reformation?" Sondergaard spent a year in U.S. prison.

Could you survey some reasons why the influences of the 19th Century movements took hold, such as Darbyism (Dispensationalism), and so on (Mormonism, Jehovah's Witnesses)?

Do you believe in the pretribulation rapture? Rec: Topical lectures series, "When Shall These Things Be?"

Have you heard about new prophecies being shared where the speaker changes from the person to Christ speaking, claiming it is a new way for God to speak to us?

Could you talk about the trend of Pentecostal "laughing in the Spirit?" It was creepy to my wife and me.

About Bethel Church's view of the continuation of the office of apostles and prophets, what teaching can you suggest? Recommended: topical lecture "Charisma and Character."

Where would you put modern Christian leadership relative to bad motives and legalism discussed in Philippians? [Philippians 1:18, Philippians 3:2].

If I have reservations about our church, but my wife and kids are enjoying it (worship is like going to a concert, using a paraphrased Bible), what do you suggest?
