Hello,
I am one of those that spoke out on Friday night at Morningstar. I want you to understand why we did what we did. We are not pharisees and it really grieves my heart that any time someone speaks out against sin and stands up for holiness they are called pharisees. Todd Bentley has not only committed adultery but continues in it unrepentant. Repentance is not just saying you are sorry but there must be action to back it up (Matt3:8). I have been to morningstar before for church service and have been blessed by the worship in the past. My brother(who also spoke out Friday night) was baptized in the Holy Spirit at Morningstar about 7 or 8 years ago. We know that there are many people including leaders that genuinely love Jesus. That is why it was not an easy thing to do. We did not come in a "religious" or "demonic" spirit. Our hearts were broken and have been broken before God since the whole Todd Bentley scandal. We prayed before we went to Morningstar that night and searched our hearts. We asked the Lord for a spirit of meekness like He has. With so many young people, who we know love the Lord, looking up to Rick Joyner and the leaders at Morningstar we can't let the dismissal of Todd Bentley's sin go unanswered. Going to Morningstar and publicly rebuking Todd Bentley was a last resort. It was not a thing that we did just for fun or because we have a chip on our shoulders. We did what we did because there is grievous error, concerning Todd Bentley's restoration, in the Morningstar leadership that has gone unchecked for many months.

We were not all graciously shown the door. Some of the ushers were rather gracious considering the circumstances, but some where very forceful. Not really sure why the Sheriff's office was called but most of them were pretty gracious. We were not arrested but we were interviewed by Oprah's camera crew and another free-lance guy who was there making a documentary about Todd Bentley or the Lakeland Revival or something like that. We had no idea that the camera crews were going to be there, but considering it to be orchestrated by the Lord.

Well there is my side. I am not trying to fight a civil war. I am not a Pharisaical heresy hunter. I am just a guy that loves Jesus and His Church and desires that She would be what She is called to be, a pure bride, the ground and pillar of truth. Yes indeed come quickly Lord Jesus!
