bio

association with Benny Hinn, because he is a "false prophet" [10] [11]
dominionism, the belief that the whole world must be saved before Christ returns [12]
blurs the line between false gods and Jehovah with ecumenism [13] and syncretism [14]

“... and you have been under the gun on this issue of Io in the Hawaiian culture, well that’s a bird god and its obviously a demon and so forth, you can’t worship it. We’re not saying that we need to worship a bird god or we’re not saying we need to worship a moon god. But were saying that those people understand it that way and they already have it as their god and perhaps we can use that name and teach the truth about the character of Jehovah God, without going to an Arab Muslim saying you have to accept the Jewish God, so that’s where we are coming from. So give us a little bit of illustration of this out of your experience.”

teaching "Moral Government Theology", associates with "Latter Rain Kingdom dominionism"

"Its doctrines aren’t even new; just a re-hashing of old Latter Rain teachings condemned as heresy by the Assemblies of God in the 50’s. But it’s back and in a big, bad way."
