CfaN is NOT In God’s Will
Reinhard Bonnke’s
ministry, Christ for all Nations, is
missing the mark of God’s holiness, ignoring God’s agenda, and spurning
the messages of the prophets God has sent. Jesus is not pleased!
Signs From God That Reinhard
Bonnke’s Work Is Nearing Its End
In Christ For All Nations’ Impact magazine for June 2007, Rob
Birkbeck reported on the “tropical storm of ‘supercell’ proportions” which
brought an abrupt and premature end to the final meeting of Reinhard’s
crusade in Aba, Abia State, Nigeria.
“Lightning had struck four
times within close proximity, striking the sound towers three times.” Three
depicts finality; four, the world.
Birkbeck also reported that
many thousands of people came “hungry for the Word of God. Before a full
Gospel message could be preached, however, a huge ‘supercell’ unleashed its
full fury directly over- head in a powerful electrical storm that shook the
city.”
Satan is the prince of the
power of the air (Eph 2:2), but Jesus demonstrated – by stilling the storm
(Mk 4:37-39) – His complete control over the forces of nature and Satan’s
fury.
Why did Jesus not
demonstrate His power in that way over Aba? – even though He healed and
delivered many people. He was making an unspoken statement which the
perceptive will understand. He withheld His hand of blessing from Reinhard
and his CfaN crew, even though He showed grace to the people.
The fact that “a full
Gospel message” was not preached is another sign of God’s displeasure with
what is being preached. It is not a full message!
What God allows to occur in
the physical can be a direct parallel of what is taking place in the
spiritual which you would otherwise not perceive.
No one in Christ For All
Nations perceived that the untimely termination of the final meeting was
a sign from God, albeit negative. It is a portent of the untimely end of
Reinhard’s ministry, approaching.
Driving, horizontal,
torrential rain drenched the attendees and created a serious electrical
risk, so Reinhard had to close the meeting. This presages the closure of
Reinhard’s Gospel outreach because of the serious spiritual risk to those
coming to Christ through his auspices.
This is in striking
contrast to the miracle we reported of how God prevented heavy rain falling
on Alex’s Sabbath fellowship meeting in Kenya (see p 16 of Don’t ABUSE
It, USE It!), and of a similar miracle cited on page 32 of Who Is The
End-Time Elijah? enabling the Gospel to be preached.
Reinhard’s ministry is no
longer in God’s will, as explained with dreams from God in MM’s publication
Some Pitfalls of Reinhard Bonnke’s Ministry.
The fact that large numbers
gather, or that God still performs miracles of healing for the needy, are
not proof that God is pleased with what is taking place. God is merciful to
people, even though ministers He uses can be out of His will. In His grace,
He heals, delivers and saves, despite human failings. Popularity, large
numbers and responses are not divine signs. Don’t misinterpret the signs of
the times.
Begging For Money
Reinhard recently sent out
a letter, asking for money from supporters. One sentence was: “Would you
please stand in support with your best possible gift at this time?”
It is not ethical to ask
for money from people if God is the One in whom you place your complete
trust. To look to people is to deny faith in God. Psalm 118:8-9 is a pivotal
principle in this regard.
In fact, Reinhard has
consistently compromised his outreach for many years by forming an unspoken
‘political alliance’ with church leaders in the areas where he preaches. He
relies upon church support, which is relying upon man, not upon God alone.
It’s no wonder Reinhard was not healed.
I have written to Reinhard
on a number of occasions, and have never had any adequate reply. This was my
most recent letter:
5th August 2007
Dear Reinhard,
Your recent plea for
money
Although I have
written to you before on several occasions, I have not received a reply
from you, so I don’t expect to receive a reply from this letter either.
But I write it just the same as a witness against you, for you have not
only rejected me, you have rejected what God has given me for you, so
you are shutting the door on Jesus.
That’s why you are
not receiving what you would like to have to finance your outreach. Is
the Lord’s Arm too short to save (Is 59:1) that you now have to resort
to asking for money from people?
Why is God not
helping you any longer? I enclose an article on that, Is The Lord’s
Arm Too Short?
If Morris Cerullo or
Benny Hinn wrote to you, you would reply. If they called you, you would
give them all the attention they ask for. I write to you, and you ignore
me, as does your unbelieving office manager Bernard Jones, who doesn’t
think the dead are going to be raised through our ministry. You won’t be
ignoring me for much longer, for I do not come in my own name, but in
the name of the One whom you have represented all these years, but Who
is now turning His back on you.
I wrote to you on
13th February 2007:
I read with interest
your recent ministry letter Multiplication Made Easy! Very good
article.
At the end you
write: “...the Cross meets every need known to man. By faith in Jesus
Christ, we inherit all that His mighty act encompassed, every blessing
and benefit for this life and the next, transferred to us by the Holy
Spirit.”
By the cross, we can
be healed. Why then were you not healed of prostate cancer? Why did you
have to resort to the doctor’s human alternative, something which Smith
Wigglesworth vowed that he would never do? And, although he suffered
acute pain from kidney stones for 6 years, he trusted in God’s promise
of healing, and finally God healed him.
Would you like to
know the reason?
A prophet in a
foreign land was given a dream by God last year about you. It revealed
that the power was departing from your ministry. There is a reason.
Would you like to know?
No reply! So,
clearly you don’t want to know. You think you know, and your recent
article Healing and the Word of God attempts to address this
unanswered question in your mind. But it doesn’t, because you are
floundering around now without the full enlightenment of the Spirit. If
you reject a prophet He sends, you reject Him who sends him (Luke
10:16).
Your article
Healing and the Word of God
is in error
You rightly write
that Jesus healed people seemingly without conditions, but fail to
understand that for us who are His chosen, there ARE conditions. When He
reached out to the unsaved to grant healing, He did so because He was
fulfilling God’s Word that He would be a sign that would be spoken
against (Luke 2:34). The demonstration of God’s power was a testimony of
God’s grace, as you say, yes. It created a platform for the listener to
begin to hear, just as Jesus has done for you in your Gospel campaigns.
You then get into
the realm of half-truths and doubt, creating confusion and questions in
people’s minds by saying that: “To know and love God is more important
than healing...” We know that. Most people should know that – if they
have been fed properly on God’s Word for some time. But the inference in
what you write is negative. You are suggesting by inference – just as
Satan did to Eve – that God is capricious and His Word cannot be
trusted. God says He heals ALL your diseases, just as He forgives all
your sins (Ps 103:3), but you are contradicting His Word, insinuating
that God does NOT heal all our diseases. You are basing your assumption
on your experience, rather than on the pure Word of God.
You wrote: “Many go
unhealed despite prayer and faith...” Come now! Do you not believe James
5:15? [The prayer of faith WILL save the sick.] Your
assumption about their faith is wrong. They don’t have faith, because
they are in sin.
You have left one
thing out of the healing equation: SIN. If you sin wilfully (or
sometimes even in ignorance or partial ignorance), there remains no more
sacrifice for sins (Heb 10:26). Thus, Jesus’ sacrifice is ineffective to
the one who draws back from repenting of wrongdoing (Heb 10:38).
I came to you with
‘new’ truth that God wants you to accept and incorporate into your
teaching and practice. But you shut the door and rejected me and what
God has revealed as part of the Final Restoration in this age. So, you
shut the door on Him. Your response was rooted in self-will and pride.
You weren’t going to let me correct you! You aren’t willing to accept
that you have anything wrong in your theology or spiritual practice.
God spoke to me
about you in dreams, revealing various aspects to do with your theology,
and life. Some were positive, some were negative. He showed me your
hostility towards the truth we promote on Church Government (in God’s
Church – Whose Authority?). You take exception to what God has
revealed and which I have recorded on that topic. Perhaps you hold
resentment towards me because of my previous challenges to you. You will
have to examine yourself on that score. I do not condemn you. I am
merely pointing out areas that you may need to look at.
I also wrote to you
in the past concerning ‘new’ truth (to you) revealed in:
The Controversy
Concerning Law and Grace
Our Sabbath Rest
Sunday Versus Sabbath: The Final World Crisis.
You rejected all
that, and with it, Jesus.
That’s why the power
is departing from you and your ministry. Here is what God said to
Kassahun Ayele, a prophet in Ethiopia:
July 26/05. K.
Reinhard Bonnke
I was listening to Reinhard Bonnke preaching in a large
auditorium. He seemed very old and weak. The audience wasn’t
impressed by his preaching. The miracle-working power was also gone
from him.
Meaning:
Reinhard’s ministry is on the wane. God is removing much of the
anointing that accompanied his ministry, because it is time for
God’s ‘new thing’ on earth. What this ministry (Midnight Ministries)
brings is part of that ‘new thing’, restoring truth which has been
neglected, ignored or rejected.
The enclosed leaflet
about the Pitfalls of your ministry provide some of the other
revelations which God has given about you. I hope you can accept them
and change. I do not come with malicious or vindictive criticism. My
only desire is to help, so that we can be in unity. At the moment you
don’t want that, and God is not pleased.
Sincerely, in His love,
Malcolm B Heap
Reinhard needs to come to
realise that God does not want mass evangelism of this sort more than He
wants purity of truth restoring. Evangelism is fine so long as people are
properly taught afterwards. But they are NOT! There’s no point in bringing
people into churches that trap them in another kind of bondage –
subservience to men.
Truth is being restored.
These are the days of ‘Elijah’ and the Final Restoration is top of God’s
list of priorities. Tragically, at the moment, Reinhard rejects this
Restoration.

Cfan Christ for all Nations
Looking to man, instead of God
Reinhard Bonnke's ministry, Christ for
all Nations, is seriously out of the will of God. Dreams which God has given
to His prophets reveal the demise of CfaN. (See also the booklet,
Some Pitfalls of Reinhard
Bonnke's Ministry.)
My letters to Reinhard do not receive
any reply. Silence can speak volumes. His office manager probably never even
passes them on to him, such is CfaN's somnolence!
Here is a recent letter from Reinhard
to his supporters, asking for money, and using a gimmick to try and rally
support for his outreach. If you can't see what is wrong with it, he is
appealing to people, rather than to God.
What you are witnessing is the demise
of a formerly Spirit-led ministry, degenerating into one of human reliance,
human effort, human programmes, human tricks and human deceit.
Relying Upon People Instead Of Upon God
Reinhard writes to his
mailing list:
“...right now, dear
friend, I need to ask you to prayerfully consider sending a [financial,
monetary] gift of soul-winning support.”
If you rely upon the
Spirit, you don’t ask people for money. If you are led by the Spirit, you
look to the Spirit for help, not the flesh.
It is better to trust
in the Lord than to put confidence in man. It is better to trust in the
Lord than to put confidence in princes (Ps 118:8,9).
Someone did a complete
survey of the Bible to find that verse 8 of that psalm was the central verse
of the Bible. Whether or not that is accurate it is certainly accurate that
the central issue in our lives is whether we will put our trust in God or
in some substitute.
When we should rely upon
God, reliance upon anything else or anyone else is an idol.
I wrote in The Bible
Speaks Vol 2 (page 41), why substitution is Antichrist. Anti does
not just mean ‘against’. The most subtle deception is not one that directly
opposes or contradicts the truth, but one which substitutes or supplants it.
It is very subtle.
By appealing to human
beings for support is to court disaster. Reinhard is under a curse for so
doing:
Cursed is the man who
trusts in man and makes flesh his strength, whose heart departs from the
Lord (Jer 17:5).
You might think it
outrageous for me to make the assertion that Reinhard’s heart has departed
from God, but it has according to Scripture, and the Word of God cannot be
broken (Jn 10:35). Whoever puts their trust in the arm of flesh has departed
from trusting in God. It grieves Him.
More Of What Is Wrong
Here are other biblical
criticisms of Reinhard’s letter above:
1) It is deceitful
He employs the
slogan “one soul at a time”, yet displays a picture of tens of thousands at
a ‘crusade’. The inference is that your money, donated to him, will bring
souls to Christ. But that overlooks the most fundamental reason why people
are converted. It is God who gives the increase (1 Cor 3:6), because no man
can come unless God calls them (Jn 6:44).
Thus, God is being replaced
by money. It is a subtle transfer of loyalties. Reinhard is deceived.
2) It is meant to impress,
humanly
His claim that
43 million have been converted through Reinhard’s efforts is one that cannot
be sub- stantiated. Certainly Reinhard has reached millions, but we should
not be impressed by numbers.
However, numbers are stated
because people are impressed by the sound of large figures and the
men who run his marketing machine know it. So, they appeal to human
impressionability. It helps you to undo your wallet.
3) Milking human weaknesses
The marketing
strategists who wrote that letter (I doubt very much that Reinhard wrote it
himself, which is another deceit!) impress you with the claim that if only
he had the money, tens of thousands could be saved. The reader is softened
up ready for the appeal: “WE NEED YOUR HELP”. “We need you to open your
heart.” It works every time. Money pours in. The suggestion “listen to the
leading of the Lord” tells the gullible and trusting (in Reinhard – in man!)
that it would be wrong not to cough up! It plays on your guilt
feelings. Readers assume that Reinhard IS listening to the leading of the
Lord. Sadly, no longer!
He’s out of the will of
God, but doesn’t know it.

CfaN Christ for all Nations
Keeping Christmas instead of...
I reported in Newsletters 41 and 42
(2007), that Reinhard Bonnke's ministry,
Christ for all Nations, is seriously out of the will of God. In this
instalment, we would being to Reinhard's attention where he is missing the
mark in matters of bibilcal purity, and why these are important to God. This
is not human opinion! Its divine precept!
Christmas is a lovely time of year. So say those who observe it. But what
does God say?
Would you
be surprised if I told you that God HATES it?! He has said just that to
others who have been on His prophetic ‘wavelength’. For example:
November 23, 1998: I speak to you today to maintain a pure conscience
before Me. Walk in truth and light. Refuse to fall into the fantasy of
the days ahead.
Some would call these days "holidays" or holy days, but do not be
deceived into thinking there is anything holy about the world's
traditions and materialism. I say it is idolatry in its grandest form.
Loose yourselves from this bondage and idolatry, and seek Me with a
whole heart. Have nothing to do with self interest and greed; rather
rise up in spiritual purity before My face, and refuse to be distracted
by what is unholy.
Marsha Burns, Kremmling, CO, USA.
If you
dismiss that with the retort that Reinhard is not governed by self-interest
and greed, I would agree with you that he is not governed by greed, but he
IS governed by self-interest in relation to his work. That is why he goes
along with a custom which God does not sanction, and shuts his ears to the
arguments of objectors. (More of that in a moment.)
Why Keep Christmas?
If
Christmas is such a delicious time of year for the unconverted, shouldn’t
that start bells ringing in the minds of the converted?!
The
majority in Christendom go along with this custom of celebration and
revelry. Even Reinhard promotes it for Jesus’ sake (see later). I don’t
question his commitment to God, but I do question the means.
I’ll
explain why God says it’s not right. Either you care about what He says, or
you don’t. You won’t have to answer to me for your decisions, but to Him.
We
publish comprehensively in a booklet the reasons why keeping Christmas on
December 25 is wrong and a sin. It’s entitled Why Keep Christmas?
Quite
simply, here is God’s reason – not mine – the Almighty’s:
You shall not add to
the word which I command you, nor take away from it, that you may keep
the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you (Deut 4:2,
NKJV).
Be careful not to be
ensnared by inquiring after their gods, saying, "How do these nations
serve their gods? We will do the same." YOU MUST NOT WORSHIP THE LORD
YOUR GOD IN THEIR WAY! (Deut 12:30,31, NIV.)
See that you do ALL I
command you; DO NOT ADD TO IT, or take away from it (12:32).
You won’t
find one word in the Bible exhorting us to keep Christmas – a pagan festival
which was (before it was renamed by Constantine in AD 325) the date
celebrating the rebirth of the sun god at the time of the winter solstice.
An
Associated Press release of 23rd December 2007, from Rome, reported:
The church where the tradition of celebrating Christmas on Dec. 25 may
have begun was built near a pagan shrine as part of an effort to spread
Christianity, a leading Italian scholar says.
Italian archaeologists
last month unveiled an underground grotto that they believe ancient
Romans revered as the place where a wolf nursed Rome's legendary founder
Romulus and his twin brother Remus.
A few feet from the
grotto, or "Lupercale," the Emperor Constantine built the Basilica of
St. Anastasia, where some believe Christmas was first celebrated on Dec.
25.
Constantine ended the
frequent waves of anti-Christian persecutions in the Roman empire by
making Christianity a lawful religion in 313. He played a key role in
unifying the beliefs and practices of the early followers of Jesus.
In 325, he convened the
Council of Nicaea, which fixed the dates of important Christian
festivals. It opted to mark Christmas, then celebrated at varying dates,
on Dec. 25 to coincide with the Roman festival celebrating the birth of
the sun god, Andrea Carandini, a professor of archaeology at Rome's La
Sapienza University, told reporters Friday.
The Basilica of St.
Anastasia was built as soon as a year after the Nicaean Council. It
probably was where Christmas was first marked on Dec. 25, part of
broader efforts to link pagan practices to Christian celebrations in the
early days of the new religion, Carandini said.
"The church was built to
Christianize these pagan places of worship," he said. "It was normal to
put a church near these places to try to 'save' them.”
The
trouble is, it didn’t convert the masses. It perverted them. Can you
make divine or holy something pagan or human? Of course not. It’s either
divine or it isn’t.
You can
take a command of God and alter it. But it’s no longer God’s command. It’s
Satan’s.
You can’t make ‘Christian’ something that Satan designed in
his deception to take people away from God, from true worship, and into
idolatry. Syncretism has no place in God’s order of things for mankind!
Constantine
did more than any other emperor to pervert Christian truth and bring
confusion. It may have had the temporary effect of standardising belief, but
it was a false move, not a move of God. It was one main cunning way Satan
infiltrated the Church.
And it
has effectively deceived the majority ever since. Today multiple millions
are deluded, thinking they are honouring God by keeping Christmas while they
are honouring Satan, the mastermind behind it!
Reinhard Is Obstructing God’s Truth
God says
categorically in the Bible that we should not take something pagan and try
to use it to worship Him (Deut 12:31). However, Reinhard is encouraging
people to do just that, against Scripture! In Son of God, Son of Man
by Reinhard Bonnke of 1st and 15th Dec 2007, on CfaN’s web page (at
http: //uk.cfan.org/bible-study.aspx?id=10314),
Reinhard makes these statements about the Christmas fallacy:
1.
In Bethlehem, in Judea, on that very first Christmas Day, the Lord
arrived from Heaven...
No, He
didn’t. He was born in the autumn, at the time of God’s autumn festivals
which God gave Israel. Those included the Feast of Trumpets which depicts
Jesus’ coming, and the Feast of Tabernacles portraying His 1,000 year rule
on earth (Lev 23).
2.
The least we can do is to keep one day to remember His coming, and if it
changes a pagan festival into a Christian one even better! Christmas Day is
the radiant jewel in the crown of the year.
If you
take something designed by Satan and call it holy, it doesn’t make it holy.
Only God makes something holy or Christian, by His command or Spirit. So,
Reinhard is promoting a lie, opposing pure truth of God, and committing an
abomination in God’s sight.
The only
days you can keep in obedience to God, in honour of Him, are those He
commands in His Word. They are the festivals He gave Israel.
3.
We do not indulge in
heated debates about doctrine or the right road to heaven. We talk about
Jesus; just Him...
That’s the
problem. What good is it talking about Jesus when you don’t fully obey Him?!
To say
you don’t indulge in heated debates is a cop out. The point doesn’t need
debating. God tells us plainly in His Word what to do. Ours is just to obey.
4.
Christmas is a time to revel, if ever we do revel.
5.
At Christmas we
indulge in all sorts of good things...
Oh yeah? Are fleshly
indulgences good?!
6.
Whatever the heathens have made of 25 December, the noise and tinsel has
been swept aside by the birth in Bethlehem. The Redeemer has claimed back
and redeemed this mid-winter day, bringing the glow and warmth of eternal
love to our winter skies.
No, He
hasn’t! Another lie! He doesn’t redeem heathen observances. He redeems
people.
7.
That is the One He
sent on Christmas Day...
8.
Christmas is not just a time for children. It is a million
times more than carols, sparkling lights, and colourful decorations. It is
the day when Heaven came down to adopt earth as a suburb of the Kingdom of
God.
What
codswallop! It is human justification for not giving up pagan customs that a
carnal emperor and Catholic Church have foisted upon gullible people in the
name of Christ. Christmas is not Christ’s birthday but Nimrod’s, from Babel.
See what God says about the vile Babylonian customs of Catholicism in Rev
17. God calls that system some very explicit epithets!
Reinhard
also says in his essay:
9.
The
Bible is a manual on faith and how to believe.
Yes, so why disobey it by
keeping Christmas?
10.
Our
Gospel Campaigns free multitudes.
They
free them from some deceptions and then bring them into bondage into others.
Christmas is one.
11.
We are
Christ’s messengers proclaiming deliverance...
No,
that’s a half truth, a misconception. God has revealed in a dream that
Reinhard is leading many people to spiritual death because he won’t give
them the whole truth of the Bible. (See Some Pitfalls Of Reinhard
Bonnke’s Ministry.) God is not pleased!
12.
not
religionists making proselytes.
That’s not true. Although
Reinhard doesn’t make proselytes for CfaN or for himself, he makes them for
churches, so that people are brought into bondage in all the churches with
whom he cooperates.
13.
what the world does not know cannot bless it.
Yes. And
what Reinhard doesn’t know – or refuses to acknowledge – cannot bless the
millions whom he reaches. So they are missing out.
What God Wants
This
short piece will tread on toes, but I make no apologies for a true prophet’s
commission (Is 58:1).
God
doesn’t want His people keeping Xmas. He wants them to accept HIS holy days.
Reasons why are given in the booklet The Festivals of God.
More truth is revealed in The Faith Once Delivered
To The Saints and other MM publications.
We are
commanded to CONTEND earnestly for the faith which Jesus entrusted to the
saints. However Reinhard isn’t contending for it. He’s compromising it!
At the
beginning of Reinhard’s ministry, God gave a vision of a blood-washed
Africa. But that has a dual meaning. Not all who profess Christ after CfaN’s
gospel crusades will be saved. The parable of the ten virgins in Matthew 25
reveals that only half will make it.
Prophets
have been shown that the Church is being prepared for slaughter! Reinhard is
leading many the wrong way by watering down the sanctity of the truth of
God. Read Ezekiel
22:26 and
22:31. That’s what’s coming!

CfaN Christ for all Nations
Is Lacking God's Guidance
Reinhard Bonnke's ministry,
Christ for all Nations, is seriously
out of the will of God. There are severe spiritual drawbacks in what has
been established. Cult mentality, close-mindedness, and other spiritual
weaknesses are evident.
Over the years, I have written to Reinhard, his wife, and his office
managers, only to be completely ignored. I don’t have space to reproduce all
those letters here, except the most recent.
When Reinhard stands on
stage and preaches to you, if you were to shut your ears, to whom do you
answer for ignoring him? If he is guided by the Spirit of God, you are
ignoring God, aren’t you? You will have to give an account for your failure
on the day of judgement.
When someone without
prominent standing ‘in the Church’ is likewise guided by the Spirit of God
to tell Reinhard something of critical spiritual importance and he ignores
it, he will also have to answer to God for his failure to listen. Mind you,
before that event arrives, spiritual penalties are incurred in this life.
Where a man of God fails to
listen to God, and then veers away from the direction God wants him to go,
he is not only walking away from God, he is taking others with him. Hence
this dream God gave me:
19th Jan 2002. M. The
Funeral Procession
Reinhard
Bonnke leads a funeral procession
There were a
number of people going to a funeral. All the bodies – and there were many of
them, probably 20 or 30 – were loaded onto a flat-bed cart which people were
pulling. The corpses were covered with reddish-brown sheets, like the colour
of burnt soil.
On other smaller
trailers, small people were sitting (in sixes), totally covered (over their
heads as well, so they couldn't see anything) with charcoal coloured
blankets. Also, they were facing the other direction to the way the
procession was going. Reinhard Bonnke was at the front, leading them.
I couldn't help but
think, "Why doesn't he show them what is wrong with their customs? Why does
he just go along with them without correcting the error in their tribal
traditions?!"
Comment:
Here God is revealing that there is a need to forcefully address the matter
of wrong traditions in the Church, such as Sunday worship, Easter,
Christmas, hierarchic church authority, etc., which are as pagan in their
origins as tribal (demonic) traditions.
It is now time to move
on. The old church structures and teachings are inadequate to prepare the
Bride of Christ to accept the full purity of God's teachings in His Word.
'Elijah' must do his
work. He must challenge all the false prophets of ‘Asherah’ and ‘Baal’ and
their compromised teachings promoted by Jezebel in the Church.
Meaning:
What the imagery of this dream portrays:
Funeral.
The Church with its present teachings is heading towards death, as in
Sardis. It needs new revelation of truth to revive it.
Many dead bodies.
There are many dead Christians, who are not alive by the Holy Spirit.
People sitting in sixes.
Six in biblical numerics denotes the evil which men subscribe to. From God's
perspective, these small groups of people (churches) need to come to terms
with the evil in their Christian practice.
Totally covered... they
couldn't see anything.
The Church’s blindness. They can't see where they are headed. They are
blindly following customs that have no biblical basis.
Facing the other
direction to which the procession was going.
Reinhard is pointing people towards God's Kingdom of righteousness which
Jesus introduced. Despite the fact that he has got some things wrong in his
theology, the overall thrust of all his work is towards God. But many
believers are facing the other way. They don't share his aspirations. They
are selfish and self-orientated, which is backward-looking.
Reinhard was at the
front, leading them.
God holds him responsible as their spiritual leader for not showing them the
folly and unbiblical nature of their religious practices.
Reinhard, my dear
friend:
There needs to be a
radical re-emphasis in your teaching to these people. You need to
upgrade the content and spiritual depth of your preaching. After all,
you are not preaching to the unconverted. Most of those gathered at your
meetings are church folks (with a minority who are not), and they need
to be fed and challenged not merely entertained.
Your evangelistic
meetings are opportunities for all these people to come together for a
big celebration, which is wonderful. But there needs to be more. As long
as spiritual instruction stays in the shallows, how can they be made
ready for the final thrust of preaching that is needed to prepare the
Bride?
Will they be ready
when Jesus comes? Or from now on will they just continue to remain in
the dark, heads covered, going backwards towards their own funerals,
after they have attended those of others?
That is what I wrote in
2002 about that dream. God has also given several other dreams highlighting
issues Reinhard should address. God is not pleased with his ministry now. It
is taking most people in the wrong direction.
Of course, God in His grace
and mercy will still use Reinhard to reach people with the gospel, and will
still heal some and deliver the seriously oppressed because of His love. But
don’t let that fool you into believing that there is nothing wrong with
Reinhard’s practice or teaching. God is calling him to greater purity, and
to major reform. Whether he listens is up to him. God never violates a
person’s free choice.
CfaN Is Becoming A CULT!
On 5th Nov 2007, I wrote
this to CfaN:
Mr Mark Oakes
UK Director
Christ For All Nations
250 Coombs Road
Halesowen
W Midlands
B62 8AA
5th November 2007
Dear Mark,
1. Would you kindly
put me on your mailing list to receive regular letters about the
progress of CfaN’s work. Thank you.
2. May I ask also what revelations from God – i.e. dreams, visions and
other prophetic input – CfaN or Reinhard has received to give God’s
guidance for the progress of the work in Africa and elsewhere.
3. Also, which prophets do you, Reinhard, and CfaN accept for the
purpose of receiving God’s guidance upon your ministry outreach?
I enclose a
complimentary copy of a recent MM Newsletter for you, and also to pass
on to Reinhard.
Thank you.
God bless,
Malcolm B Heap
THERE WAS
NO REPLY! Not even a simple, polite acknowledgement. Why not?
I was not
added to CfaN’s mailing list. This is not the only letter they have ignored
from me. It is the ‘umpteenth’! I have written to CfaN about important
spiritual issues, but all those have been ignored! It seems serious
spiritual matters are shelved, just as Jesus warned of Laodicea (Rev
3:15-20).
If you
approach a CULT, you get the same response. Where men follow men instead of
God, that’s when the door shuts in a prophet’s face. And that’s what’s
happened to CfaN. It is now a humanly run organisation, not led by the
Spirit!
That’s
why CfaN’s supporters are plied with requests for money, are subjected to
devious worldly marketing methods, and are not fed spiritually with more
than shallow spiritual teaching, just to keep them ‘ticking over’. CfaN is
now degenerating into a CULT, and OBSTRUCTS GOD’S ‘ELIJAH’ WORK!
Impressive
Look at
the full colour glossy Impact magazine which CfaN uses to promote its
evangelistic work. Does that impress you? Are you impressed when you read of
the many hundreds of thousands to whom Reinhard preaches in gospel
campaigns? Are you impressed by the fact that he has preached Christ to
multiple millions, and of his claim that more than 40 million people have
filled in CfaN’s decision cards for salvation?
If so,
you are not being impressed by the Spirit, but being impressed by something
less spiritual.
Sure,
it’s nice to have success physically. It’s what every evangelist wants – to
reach the largest number of people. But it’s not God’s prime objective in
this age – which may surprise you. He is not trying to save ALL the world
now. His agenda is explained in MM’s article series The Church Is
Missing The Mark.
No Major Guidance From Above
Since I
couldn’t reach Reinhard himself, I asked CfaN’s UK office manager what
revelations God has given to them for the direction of their work. No reply!
There are
none! This is the problem.
What is
the means which God has established in the Church for its guidance?
Ephesians 4:11 says.
Does
Reinhard fulfil all those functions? No.
So what
function or office is being ignored? PROPHETS! God speaks to prophets to
redirect the Church. Reinhard isn’t listening, nor are the others in his now
culticly-operated organisation hearing them either. So they are not hearing
from God for proper overall direction.
God will
speak minimally to Reinhard on stage FOR THE SAKE OF THE PEOPLE whom God is
calling or healing, and delivering from some demons.
Ephesians
3:5 reminds us that two offices are the principal ones God uses for major
spiritual direction: apostles and prophets.
Reinhard
is neither of those; he is an evangelist.
These
offices in the Church should listen and learn from one another, as they
receive from God. I have listened and learned from Reinhard in the past, but
he has never listened or learned from me. It’s time for change.
If he
won’t change, God will take away his candlestick or lampstand from its place
(Rev 2:5).
As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent
(Rev 3:19).
Abomination In Churches
In a
dream on 26th Dec 2002, God showed me that Reinhard does not realise that
church hierarchy is an abomination to God. The dream is recounted in Some
Pitfalls of Reinhard Bonnke’s Ministry.
Church folks also have no
idea how wrong it is. Nor do they see how wrong Reinhard is; and that he is
not open to receiving certain truths from God.
Church hierarchy is Satan’s
entry point to limit the minds of millions of believers!
CfaN – WAKE UP!
Malcolm B Heap, January

CfaN Is Defying God!
Reinhard Bonnke's ministry,
Christ for all Nations, does not
accept, acknowledge, or listen to God's prophets. If anyone defies a message
from a prophet of God, he defies God Himself! It is a fearful thing to fall
into the hands of the living God!
Reinhard prides himself that he is preaching the Gospel to the world and
reaping a massive harvest.
In Impact of
December 2007, he says: “The Word of God is our authority for action. I call
the Great Commission, the ‘Supreme’ Commission.”
Yes. But there is a part of
the Great Commission that he is omitting. I’ll explain in a moment. And
there is another Commission from on high that is GREATER than that of
evangelism at this time!
It’s the Work of ‘Elijah’.
I will explain that also in a moment.
The Great Commission
Jesus commanded:
1) Go therefore and
make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them... (Matt 28:19).
That part of the Commission
Reinhard fulfils.
2) ...teaching
them to observe all things I have commanded you... (Matt 28:20).
That part he doesn’t
fulfil!
Jesus bequeathed a faith to
His Church that was a body of beliefs which have since been corrupted and
need to be restored. The faith once delivered to the saints is
mentioned in Jude 3, a letter written very late in the first century, when
apostasy was taking hold in the Church. Since then, it has progressed, and
now it is deeply rooted throughout Christendom! This body of beliefs is
explained in our booklet by that title: The Faith Once Delivered To The
Saints.
Reinhard has some of that
faith, but not all. He needs the remainder.
I sent it to him by post in
MM literature, but it was rejected. God portrayed this in symbolism in this
dream, cut and pasted from my Dream Diary:
Reinhard Bonnke And Our Van
29th April 2000. M.
Yesterday, 28th April, I was moved by the Spirit to send God’s Church
– Whose Authority? to Reinhard Bonnke. Then, God gave me a dream to
indicate the response, and the immediate future of our ministry.
In this dream,
Reinhard was temporarily occupying a Council house. It was a very
ordinary place. Our ministry was represented as a small white van which
was parked in the front garden. It was squarish, small, and white, but
nothing much to look at. It was not an impressive vehicle.
There were meetings
being held in Reinhard’s Council house. They were very ordinary, and the
material was so familiar to us that they held little interest. I wasn’t
sure whether to stay or leave, but I showed respect by sitting down and
staying. I sat at the back. The meeting was soon over.
I got up and, on
leaving, I passed Reinhard, who was sitting in an empty room with only
his chair and a telephone. He was making a call to book his airline
flight. I wanted to stop and talk with him but he was busy, so I just
walked by him and left. Even if I had used sign language to him to
acknowledge him and smile, that would have distracted him from his call,
because he didn’t know me, so I said and did nothing as I went out.
I got in my small
white van and drove off. Before doing so, there was a pile of paving
slabs outside which I moved (supernaturally) from the place where they
had been left to the middle of the lawn in front of Reinhard’s Council
house. They must have weighed a ton or two, but they had been moved (not
by human might, but by God’s). Yet, they complained that I shouldn’t
leave them there, the grass would die underneath. I said “That’s not my
problem; it’s yours”, and walked off.
[Dream truncated
here.]
Interpretation:
Reinhard’s Council
house, and the meetings:
The more permanent physical nature or structure of his ministry compared
with ours, and the very ordinary teaching in his ministry.
The plane booking:
Symbolises the large finance Reinhard has compared with ours and what
that makes possible in his ministry. He can go places fast, unlike us.
My small white van:
Our ministry is nothing much to look at on the outside, but our teaching
is practical. It is not a ministry backed by large resources, so it
epitomises that lack of support, but it is going places by our efforts
and with God’s guidance.
The flat tyre:
The obstacles we have to contend with in doing this work. We face many
difficulties and lack of funds.
The stack of paving
slabs
which I moved and left on their front lawn: Part of the work of ‘Elijah’
is restoring the way, showing the path to walk. But it is others’
responsibility to lay the pavers out and walk that route. We can’t do it
for them. The symbolism shows the unwillingness of personnel at CfaN to
incorporate the truth about Sabbaths and holy days into their Christian
walk.
Their being
supernaturally moved:
What is to come in our ministry [raising the dead] will make the truths
about the Sabbaths so plain to CfaN that they then have the
responsibility to lay those aspects of truth out, and put them into
practice.
God Opposes Those Who Ignore Him
Reinhard Bonnke, his office
managers and staff have rejected the input from God which we sent them.
God holds people
accountable. That is why CfaN faces difficulties and some adversities. They
will get worse the more they reject God’s input. If you reject what a
prophet of God brings at God’s direction, you reject the One who sent him.
So said Jesus in Luke 10:16. You can read it for yourself.
“Who Do You Think You Are!?”
People who get upset at any
criticism of CfaN – who think that it is above criticism because of the size
of its operations – fire that volley at me. Let them. God judges them for
it. They question contemptuously: “Who do you think you are?!”
It’s not who I am that
matters. It’s the wrong question. It’s “what am I saying?” that is vital.
And, “is God behind my words?” I’ll answer that for any who might be more
open-minded. (See following pages.)
“It’s The Same Old Thing”
I was first made aware of
Reinhard’s ministry in 1988, 20 years ago. But I made no criticism for many
years. That aspect was depicted in the aforementioned dream (4th paragraph
of the dream). Others did query Reinhard. It irked him that someone would
comment negatively about his messages – that he was preaching “the same old
thing.” The critic had a point.
Yes, as wonderful as the
basic message of the Gospel is, it’s not enough to prepare the Church for
what is to come. Does Reinhard ever preach about the coming Great
Tribulation? I have never heard it from his lips. I doubt if he is even
aware of how close we are to the end of the age, and of what Jesus means us
to know about what is coming. Reinhard is so busy with HIS agenda of trying
to reach 100 million people this decade, and raising funds for that massive
outreach, that he’s asleep to what is coming.
Asleep!
Some years ago Reinhard
wrote a letter to his supporters in which he mentioned that half the Church
is asleep. That was his ‘take’ on the parable of the ten virgins in Matthew
25. I wrote to him and pointed out that Jesus didn’t say what he claimed.
Jesus said that THE WHOLE CHURCH (represented by ten virgins) IS ASLEEP! All
ten! They only wake up when it’s very late, after the Midnight Cry goes out.
Jesus’ amazing parable is
expounded in MM’s booklet The Ten Virgins.
Sleep represents being
unaware of spiritual realities. It can include deception. But who would dare
accuse Reinhard of being deceived by the devil?! That is not just unpopular,
it sounds really implausible!
However, Reinhard is not
aware of God’s Work of ‘Elijah’ taking place, restoring lost truth for the
Church – which half, or most, don’t want to accept! And, being unaware,
he opposes it, along with his associates at CfaN who are apparently
totally ignorant of what God’s agenda is for the next few years!
But that’s what happens
when you ignore the prophetic message God sends. Prophets have been thrown
out of CfaN’s door, if they ever got through it! They have been replaced
with the pathetic excuse that people can hear for themselves by the Holy
Spirit with their own prophetic giftings (which is untrue).
And, anyway, “what does
that matter? All that matters is that CfaN reaches more and more souls!”
However, I trounce that
fallacy and expose the misconception in Souls, Souls, Souls, an
article in the compilation The Church Is Missing The Mark.
Laodicea Is Here
Laodicea
shuts the door on further Truth. She doesn’t want it. She’s got all she
wants. She’s completely content – and even proud – with what she’s got.
But the trouble is, to be
content with watered-down truth, with syncretism such as Christmas, Easter
and other pagan derivatives, is to compromise. So, the Church today faces
double censure from God:
I know your works,
love, service [Reinhard is high on God’s list in that regard], faith,
and your patience; and as for your works, the last are more than the
first. Nevertheless I have a few things against you, because you allow
that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess, to teach and seduce
My servants to commit sexual immorality and to eat things sacrificed to
idols (Rev
2:19-20).
The metaphors are about
false concepts being tolerated and promoted as if they don’t matter. They
are more fully explained in the book Understanding The Book of
Revelation. Jesus continues His warning:
Indeed, I will cast her
into a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her into great
tribulation, unless they repent... (Rev 2:22). I will kill her children
with death, and all the churches shall know that I am He who searches
the minds and hearts. And I will give to each one of you according to
your works (Rev 2:23).
God punishes. He rewards
disobedience! That’s why He first sends prophets to warn. If people do not
repent, He fights them with the sword of His mouth! (Rev 2:16.)
But they rebelled and
grieved His holy Spirit; so He turned Himself against them as an enemy,
and He fought against them (Is 63:10).
Remember therefore how
you have received and heard; hold fast and repent. Therefore if you will
not watch
[if you fall asleep spiritually, and don’t care about receiving more
truth from God], I will come upon you as a thief, and you will not
know what hour I will come upon you (Rev 3:3).
So, then, because you
are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My
mouth. Because you say ‘I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of
nothing’ – and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind
and naked – I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that
you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the
shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with
eyesalve, that you may see (Rev 3:16-18).

Cfan Versus Midnight
Because Reinhard Bonnke's ministry,
Christ for all Nations, is seriously
out of the will of God, God is fighting against it now (Is 63:10; Rev 2:16).
God raises up a prophetic voice to declare His will. Elijah championed for
restoration of Truth in his day. 'Elijah' does the same today.
God Confirms His Word With Signs
I don’t have to tell you
that God confirms His Word with signs following. All who work with Reinhard
know that well.
But where are the
REVELATORY SIGNS of God’s guidance on Reinhard’s ministry as on Midnight
Ministries? Here is some of the prophetic proof that MM speaks for God.
On 1st July 2004, God spoke
to a prophet in Ethiopia. Kassahun wrote to me about what God said.
The 7th Angel’s Message
July 1/04. An Angel
Declares: The End Of The World Has Come! [See Rev 16:17-21.]
Last night God gave
me this dream. A mighty angel appeared on the roof of my home. The house
shook (see also Heb 12:26). I went to see what was happening and saw the
angel hovering above the house. In his hands the angel held a scroll on
which some warnings were written in red letters.
I couldn't see what
was written on the scroll, so I called to the angel to come closer. The
angel responded by coming swiftly. I could now see that some of what was
written there were quotations from the book of Ezekiel. [A book about
the judgement of God against sin and wickedness. It contains end-time
warnings about punishment as a result of sin – war, famine, and other
calamities and suffering that come about because people refuse to repent
of sinful lifestyles.]
I saw Ezekiel
chapter 5 [which will be fulfilled shortly in many nations including
Ethiopia, and also America and Britain]. I also saw Ezekiel 21:8-32.
[You can read it for yourself and see what God is saying now – that
terrible warfare is about to engulf the region where he lives, and
spread to many other lands.]
The angel said
twice: "The end of the world has come. THE END OF THE WORLD HAS COME!"
[The end of man's age of misrule.] "Go out and tell the warnings written
on this scroll."
I began to cry. I
couldn't control my tears, because of the presence of God. I said to the
angel, "This is a huge responsibility. I can't take it. Please tell
Malcolm what you have said to me."
The angel responded,
"I will visit Malcolm soon." Then he left. When I awoke I prayed to God
to lead me in this work. The solemnity of the dreams still grips my
mind.
Bless you. Kassahun
Signs Of MM’s Authenticity
Two main categories of
signs or wonders which validate the work of Midnight Ministries
are:
1) People raised from the
dead who have been dead for years: See the article WAKING The Dead!
2) The copious dreams and visions from God.
In many dreams, God spoke
to Kassahun Ayele in Ethiopia about MM, confirming this Work. Here is some
of that divine commendation (see 2 Cor 10:18).
MM Has The Torch Of God’s Truth
June 2/03. K. MM
holds the torch of God’s truth!
Malcolm was holding a huge torch. From that torch there came meteorites
like fireworks (it seemed like that in the dream) which spread to various
places.
When the scene changed,
I saw a multitude of people coming to Malcolm with their torches. The torch
they hold doesn’t have light and they kindle their torch from the burning
torch of Malcolm. The more they kindle their torch; the more the huge torch
on Malcolm’s hand was brightening also. The light was very beautiful.
Jan. 13/04. K. MM
Publications Contain the Truth
I saw the Bible surrounded by the publications of MM. Several bright
rays were coming from the Bible and were reflected by the publications.
July 8/03. K. A
very beautiful sword emitted light. The light coming from it had many
different colours. On the sword’s handle I saw five brilliant gems. Blue,
green, yellow, red and amber. I knew that even the gems were there for a
functional purpose, though I was not yet sure what that was.
Comment:
The sword depicts the Truth of God which you now have in your hand in MM
publications. There are many beautiful aspects to God’s truth, which is
precious and which is preparing (5) God’s people for service and holiness.
MM Is Preparing The Temple
6 Feb 04. MM
is helping to build the Living Temple
Many people were working
on a huge building on level ground. I went to find out who the man was who
owned this building. Suddenly Malcolm appears out of the blue, with a smile
on his face. There was a hard hat on his head like builders wear on building
sites. He said to me that the building is ‘The Living Temple’.
Truth Will Revolutionise The World
5th June 2001. K. I saw
Malcolm in the house. He was clothed with gabbi (traditional garment of
Ethiopia. It is very white. People wear it in winter to keep warm.) He was
writing something very powerful which revolutionised the whole world. (I
sensed it in my spirit.) I was glad by his commitment.
Comment:
White is a symbol of purity / righteousness.
Power To Witness Coming Soon!
28th February 2002
In a dream (of last night) I found myself in a church on the Sabbath. At
first it seemed to me that the church was a big house, but afterwards I
saw that it is a wide hall!
I entered and sat
down on a pew. I saw you and your family, including Richard with others,
sit down on the pews here and there. There were only a few of us [few
are chosen, Matt 22:14]. There was no one on the platform.
Then I saw a tall
man wearing a cloth suit [this is either Jesus or an angel representing
Him]. He approached the pulpit but didn’t go up to it. I was astonished.
He began to speak and said, “I notice that the pews are empty.” His gaze
focused on those of us who were present. He said to us, “You are
faithful witnesses. I congratulate you on your courage, faith and
steadfastness. Stay faithful to God.”
Light was radiating
from our faces.
The man added, “Be
of good courage, soon you will receive a power which will give you
strength and vigour. You will be sustained with a holy zeal as never
before. Be faithful. The night is approaching quickly. Your task and
mission in the world are still not completed. Soon you will receive the
power that God promises to His children and very soon the work will
be finished."
This is the dream,
my brother. It is for our comfort. He is with us. God bless!
Kassahun
MM Literature Preparing The Bride
Aug 22/03. It seemed as
though I was looking at a wedding. There in the street to left and right
best men were standing clothed with beautiful suits. Grey limousines were in
the centre of the street and moving slowly. Behind them there was a choir
singing loud a beautiful song. I thought in the dream that this is the next
move of MM.
Comment:
MM is preparing the Bride for Jesus' Coming, through all the
literature God has given us to promote His wonderful truths.
Jesus Comes To Aylesbury
June 10/02
Jesus Comes To Aylesbury
In a dream a tall man met with me and with a good
smile asked me to show Him your home. I told Him that the home is located
near Aylesbury somewhere in Gibraltar. He looked at me for a minute and told
me that He has begun His journey to your home and said to me, "Goodbye I
will meet you soon in My servant's home."
The above are just some of
the many hundreds of dreams which God has given to Kassahun Ayele. They
confirm God’s approval of Midnight Ministries’ work. Kassahun is a prophet
living in Ethiopia.
Others have received
similarly about this work of God, Midnight Ministries. Here’s one example:
Restoring All Things To The Church
I received this letter from
Nicholas Ochieng Odero in Kenya:
11th October 2004
Dear Malcolm, [M's
comments in square brackets.]
God gave me this dream
on the 2nd of this month:
I was in Nigeria with
David Isaac Ohuoba. [David has raised people from the dead through God's
power. He uses MM literature to teach people and build up their faith in
God.] Many people were coming to us for literature. I saw that I spent
one week there preaching the gospel.
On the 6th I dreamed
that I was somewhere like a supermarket. [Represents how preachers are
merchandising God's gospel truth – people shop around to get what they
want – corrupt!] It seems like I was working there.
Suddenly I saw you with
Helena. [We will be revealed to the world suddenly, through publicity as
God raises 50 people from the dead.] Then I heard a voice telling me, "This
is the man I have chosen to restore all things to the Church."
[These are the days of Elijah – the prophesied restoration at the End!]
Then I heard another
voice telling somebody to give you two cups of honey [2 years revival].
After that I did not see you again. [I will go when my task is done,
like Elijah did, although not in the same way as Elijah, of course.]
May God bless you...
Nicholas
God says that every matter
is established by two or three witnesses (Deut 17:6; 2 Cor 13:1).
Several others who have
never met me have testified of what God revealed to them in dreams that MM
is God’s vessel for the End-Time Restoration of truth for the Church. Their
revelations are reproduced in the booklets MORE THAN A PROPHET, and
Revelations From God About
Midnight Ministries.
For those who would
criticise falsely that I am commending myself, I would remind them of how
Paul had to reassert his authority to the Corinthian church. The dreams are
GOD’S COMMENDATION OF MM.
Below are further dreams
given to Kassahun:
God Validates MM’s Work Again
Mar 24/04. Dream given to
Kassahun.
God reveals
that MM's Work is very important.
Malcolm was doing something very important. It was a good thing!
MM Publications Contain The Fire Of God
Oct 7,
2004. K. MM
Lit. Contains The Fire Of God
We were
studying the truths in our fellowship. When I opened one of the publications
to share the truths, a flame of fire appeared inside the page.
Amazed, I turned to the next page. There again appeared that flame of fire.
The fire did not burn the pages.
With much excitement, I showed this miracle to those who were in the
fellowship. All were amazed.
Meaning:
When the truth is shared with new people, God performs miracles to
demonstrate His love and presence. MM publications, although written by man,
were guided in their compilation by God. They contain the Fire of God! And
those who are true, recognise it! They are excited by the truths.
True Prophets Not Accepted
Nov. 17/04. K.
Prophets Rejected
I was in the midst of
several men and women. I heard one of them quoting from the book of Jeremiah
and they said that Jeremiah was a false prophet. [What they say about true
prophets today.] I told him that he is not right about Jeremiah and began to
explain the book. Those who were convinced by my explanation began to oppose
the others.
The atmosphere was becoming
tense. I sensed that soon there will be conflict among themselves. I told
those who were convinced to come with me. We left the place at once. [Like
Jesus created division, so do true prophets.]
Comment:
Some Christians are so deluded by modern teachings that overemphasise grace,
that they think stern prophetic messages of judgement from God are false.
True prophets are rejected, except by the few.
Those who refuse to change
and accept the full truth will cause splits when others accept a greater
fulness of truth.
Spiritual Treasures!
Dec 9/05. K.
MM publications: spiritual treasures!
I was with Malcolm. He had many keys in his hand.
I asked him what all those keys were for. He then took me to a cosy room
with several silver boxes fixed to the walls of the room. He opened one of
the boxes and showed me a new publication. The title of it was Spiritual
Treasures. I wanted one and he gave it to me. He told me that all the
boxes are packed with new publications which God has revealed to MM. I was
amazed.
“Well Done, Good Faithful Servant”
Nov. 25/06. K. In a dream, I
was standing in a bright and ornate palace. Words cannot describe the beauty
of the building’s interior [a heavenly mansion, Jn 14:2]. A wonderful
atmosphere of peace and holiness pervaded the court. Before me stood a
beautiful woman with a shining angelic glow on her face. In her hand she
held a golden neck-chain from which hung a small brown wooden cross. She
placed the chain around my neck. She smiled and said “Well done thou good
and faithful servant.” At this I awoke.
Churches Are Like Prostitutes
July 19/03. K. The
seductive approach of churches
I saw a woman [symbol also used in 2 Cor 11:2]. She was using different
makeup to change her appearance to get acceptance. But she didn’t appeal to
men and began to strip off and expose herself. The sight was disgusting.
Meaning:
Churches behave like prostitutes, spiritually, to gain and hold members.
They have a wrong agenda.
Angels Protect The Work Of MM
8th January 2004. K. 3)
Angels protect MM from opposition that could destroy
In the third dream I saw archers surrounding Malcolm’s home. They were
many. I asked one of them where they came from and he pointed to the north.
They came to protect the camp of God’s servant.
Meaning:
The north is where God's throne is (Ps 48:2). Angels are guiding and
protecting this work of MM because it is a work of God with the End-Time
Message.
Angels Bless MM Meeting Hall
July 27/03. Angels in
cellar
I was in the cellar with the family of MM. A few men came in clothed in
white linen. They looked like monks. Their faces were the same so you
couldn’t distinguish one from another. They were walking here and there
blessing the cellar and all those who were there. When they had finished
their work, they went out slowly.
Persecution Against MM
15th October 2003
Yesterday (on the 3rd
day of the Feast of Tabernacles) God gave me the following dream:
Prophecy of persecution against Midnight Ministries!
I was shown a vine. It
was beautiful and great. Soon I saw the vine swaying to and fro as
though moved by a powerful wind. One branch after another of the vine
was shaken and lay prostrate upon the earth.
Many passed and looked
pityingly upon it, and I waited anxiously for a friendly hand to raise
it but no help was offered. Presently, I saw an angel come to the
apparently deserted vine. He spread out his arms and placed them beneath
the vine and raised it so that it stood upright, saying:
“Stand toward heaven,
and let your tendrils entwine about God. You are shaken from human
support. You can stand in the strength of God, and flourish without it
[without human support]. Lean upon God alone, and you shall never lean
in vain or be shaken therefrom.”
As I saw the neglected
vine cared for I felt relief, amounting to joy. I turned to the Angel
and inquired what these things meant. He said: “This vine is MM. It will
experience all this. When these things occur you will fully understand
the figure of the vine. God will be a present help in time of trouble.”
Kassahun.
Angel Comes To Help MM
Oct 18/03. K. Angel comes
to aid MM
A great eagle, which has several wings arrived at the home of Malcolm. I
sensed that the eagle is the messenger of God sent to encourage and assist
Malcolm and his family.
The Golden Sceptre In The Cellar
Aug 12/03. K. It seemed
that we were worshiping on the Sabbath day in a cellar at Malcolm’s place.
The cellar was overcrowded and all were praising God gladly. I saw an arm
reach down from heaven, holding a golden sceptre.
On the top of the
sceptre was a crown studded with diamonds. Every diamond emitted light,
bright, clear and beautiful. Inscribed upon the crown were these words, “All
who win me are happy, and shall have everlasting life.” [The sceptre is
God's truth with which He will rule the world.]
Spirit of God Shakes The Room
July 14/03. K.
Malcolm came to my home. It was full of people who wanted to hear from
Malcolm. He began to teach and prophesy. The people were expressing their
gladness with tongues. The Spirit of God shook the little room.
[I don't need to come in person. Accepting the Truth of God in MM literature
will open the way for God to shake the earth and fill people with God’s
Spirit.]
MM In China
June 16/04. K. MM To
Reach Into
China
Zenya
wrote to me to say that Malcolm and Helena have made a trip to China to
evangelize and stay there for 7 days. She asked me to help them in my
prayer. I was amazed.
Meaning:
We
probably will not go there personally, but the witness which God will
perform through raising the dead will reach into China through the media and
internet.
Most Sneer At MM’s Work
March 2/07. K. Preparing
The Way
Malcolm and I were digging on the roadside to make a pavement for the
pedestrians. We laboured hard and made a beautiful and smooth pavement.
People who saw our work gave us their appreciation. But they were few in
number. The majority sneered at us.
Meaning:
This dream adopts some of the imagery of Isaiah 40:3-4 to describe what MM
and Kassahun are engaged in, but most Christians are too carnal to accept
it.
URGENT!
Aug. 16/06. K.
A new Newsletter arrived from Malcolm. There were large bold letters on the
front page which said, “URGENT!” It made me curious to know what was written
inside.
Meaning:
We are trying to wake people up to the very late hour it is, and prepare
people for what is coming.
Flashing Sword Of Judgement
July 29/06. K. Many little
booklets arrived in my box. Their covers were green. They came from Malcolm.
The front cover has a picture of a flashing sword.
Meaning:
A flashing sword is a symbol of God’s judgement. It slaughters people (Ezek
21:28). MM booklets which bring God’s truth that can provide rest (Matt
11:28.29), symbolised by the restful green colour, also bring down God’s
judgement when the truth they contain is rejected.
MM Will Reach Millions
May 11/06. K. When I turned
on my TV I heard a voice saying, "This is the new MM program. It will be
aired in a few seconds." [Soon.] I was eagerly waiting, watching the screen.
Then Malcolm and Helena showed up. I saw a trumpet in Malcolm's hand. [A
trumpet symbolises warning. Hand is symbolic of the writings. So it depicts
‘our’ written warning.]
Helena began to introduce the new station of MM and gave a testimony of how
God has done a miracle in providing a way to air the messages of MM to
millions of people in the world. I was excited by the publicity.
“Well Done, Good Faithful Servant”
Nov. 25/06. K. In a dream, I
was standing in a bright and ornate palace. Words cannot describe the beauty
of the building’s interior [a heavenly mansion, Jn 14:2]. A wonderful
atmosphere of peace and holiness pervaded the court. Before me stood a
beautiful woman with a shining angelic glow on her face. In her hand she
held a golden neck-chain from which hung a small brown wooden cross. She
placed the chain around my neck. She smiled and said “Well done thou good
and faithful servant.” At this I awoke.
Preachers' Poison
April 25/02. K.
Preachers’ Poison
I was in a church. The pastor opens his mouth. I saw poison on his
tongue. Immediately I went out of the church.
Meaning:
Most pastors have appointed themselves. They don't give the truths of God to
the flock. They have poisoned teachings that kill the flock.
[“Deception is the poison of the Church.” (Testing The
Spirits, p 118.)]
April 29/02. K.
Deception Has Polluted God’s Clear Water of Truth
I saw pure and clear water. Dogs were drinking
from it and snakes were playing in it. I saw a large number of people come
from the valley to the water. They were very thirsty but couldn't drink from
the water because of the snakes.
Suddenly the sky opened and Angels came down and began to drive the snakes
and dogs away and make the water very clear and heal it.
Meaning:
The water represent the truths of God's Word prepared by the Almighty. The
dogs are the opposers of the truths of God (Phil. 3:2). The snakes are
demons. The people who were in the valley represent those who thirst for the
truths of the hour but who are unable to get to it.
Comment:
God holds preachers responsible. Many will wish they had never been born!
(See Matt 18:6.)
The Three Angels Of Revelation 14
August 30/05. K.
The Three Angels
I saw in the sky pictures of three angels holding
trumpets to their mouths. I stared at them. Then those angels became living
beings and began blowing their trumpets. The sound of the trumpets was like
thundering and the earth was shaking.
People were running with
fear to save themselves but most of them couldn’t make it. I became numb and
my heart failed in me. I knew God’s Judgment has begun.
Meaning:
People read Revelation’s prophecies and they are like a picture to them,
that’s all. The reality of these things being fulfilled NOW is lost on most
of them. But, just as the angels came to life, so will Revelation’s
prophecies NOW! Over the next few years, all that is in Revelation will be
fulfilled with earth-shaking accuracy and horror!
No wonder people run in
terror, but there is no place of escape for those who don’t serve God
wholeheartedly NOW.
The three angels in your
dream could be the first three angels mentioned in Revelation 14. They
proclaim:
1. The gospel of Jesus
to the whole world. Rev 14:6. [Reinhard will NOT be doing that. MM and
others will.]
2. Judgment upon spiritual Babylon, for denying the truths of God and
holding earth’s population in spiritual captivity. Rev 14:8.
3. Judgment upon the Beast, those who worship the Beast, his image (the
Catholic monolith) and who accept the mark. Rev 14:9.
Kassahun, others, and MM
will play a part in fulfilling Revelation 14.
Well?
These are just a few of the
revelations God has given – not just to MM – but to a third party abroad.
The question to you now is: Do you believe the signs God has given, and will
you obey?

CfaN and The Midnight Hour
Reinhard Bonnke and CfaN,
Christ for all Nations, are not
preparing the Church for what is shortly ahead. We are at the Midnight Hour.
Great Tribulation (Matt 24:21) looms on the horizon. Here are some dreams
from God to a prophet. May you heed and WAKE UP!
THE TIME IS LATE! As a man of God, Reinhard should know, and so should his
crew, but they don’t.
THE CHURCH IS NOT READY! As
a man of God, Reinhard should know what it needs to get ready, and so should
his crew, but they don’t.
THEY ARE ASLEEP! It is high
time to AWAKE!
Jesus said He would send
a Midnight
Cry (Matt 25:6)
to awaken His chosen ones. How will He do that? He will resurrect people who
have been dead for years (see MM’s article WAKING The Dead!) to
create a platform for publicity to take the Gospel to the world via the
media, along with this Restoration of Truth.
Below are just a few dreams
given to Kassahun Ayele, a ‘lone’ prophet in Ethiopia, to help prepare you.
The Coming Terrible Times
6th April 2001. K.
The earth was covered by gross darkness. [The time to which Jesus
referred as the Great Tribulation – Matt 24:21.]
I saw people very
confused, running to and fro like madmen. [Terror, spiritual blindness
and lack of true spiritual direction, because they have rejected the
Holy Spirit.]
I thought that it
was the second coming of Christ. [It’s the time immediately leading up
to it. The birth pangs of the new age. Isaiah 13:8; Joel 2:6.]
Soon I saw an Angel
coming from the east, holding in His hand a red paper. [Red symbolises
war and bloodshed.] I was gazing upon Him as if I was expecting
something. But He didn’t tell me anything. He threw the red paper to the
earth.
After that I saw
fire in several places. [War is going to break out.] Buildings, great
and small, were falling to the ground. Many lives were blotted out of
existence, and the air was filled with the shrieks of the injured and
the terrified.
I said in my terror,
“It is the judgement of God!”
[Remember that God
judges sin and rebellion, but grants grace and mercy to those who give
Him their lives completely. Psalm 91:7-8 contains a promise of God’s
care, even in the most desperate and terrible of circumstances. Remember
Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego (Dan 3). How God delivered them is how
He will deliver those who truly love Him today.]
PREPARE! PREPARE!
April 22/02.
‘Hide’ In The Almighty!
I heard a voice from afar. It says, ''The end
has come! The end has come! Hide in the Almighty! Hide in the Almighty."
[When God repeats things it's for EMPHASIS. It emphasises the importance of
heeding, and the certainty of what is coming, that humans cannot see!]
Meaning:
The Church needs to make intensive preparations for what is shortly ahead!!
We are entering the Great Tribulation very soon, the worst time in earth’s
terrible history. The only safe passage through this time of horrors is to
be close to God, completely reliant upon Him.
Sept
30, 2004. K.
Prepare! Prepare!
I heard a voice saying, "Prepare, and prepare, for what is
coming upon the earth. Let your faith correspond to the truths I have given
you." The voice was like an echo reaching far and near.
Meaning:
Now is the time to walk by faith. It prepares us for difficult times ahead.
When God repeats things, they are important. He repeats for emphasis.
Tribulation Is Coming
20 Feb 04. K.
Tribulation is coming. Are you ready?
A new booklet arrived in the post written by
Malcolm. On the cover there was a title written in bold: 60 Ways To
Escape From The Coming Tribulation. Immediately I began to read eagerly
while I returned home.
Meaning:
60 is 6 x 10. To survive the coming Tribulation, spiritually, (don't worry
about the physical part; God can take care of you however He sees fit),
people (10) must deal with the evil (6) in their hearts, and start living
fully for Jesus.
Articles of Faith,
Vol 3 contains articles to help you prepare to Endure to the End and
How to Survive God's Judgement.
May 4/02.
The Great Tribulation Coming Soon
I was going to our meeting. People in the street
were looking into the sky. I raised my eyes to the sky and saw a frightening
scene. Demons came out of the clouds. They were covered in black from head
to foot. For a certain period of time they controlled the air. I was afraid
and began to cry.
Suddenly, I saw Angels covered with red. They began to fight the demons and
the demons all fled with great speed and the Angels controlled the air.
Meaning:
The Tribulation is not far away. It will test everyone on earth (lasting 3½
years). But soon after, God will rescue people from all this horror. The
angels covered in blood depict them defeating and killing the evil people
used by demons, before they turn their attention to the demons.
It’s 20 Minutes To Midnight!
The world scene is now
at 20 minutes to Midnight!
Nov. 25/03. K.
Malcolm had sent me a NL. The cover of the NL was not as usual (light
green). It was red, and written in black and bold letters, “THE ANGEL
SAID THE WORLD CLOCK IS AT 20 MINUTES BEFORE
MIDNIGHT.”
[Editor:
The dream depicts Newsletter 25 in which this dream was first published.
When God prompted me to start it, He gave me the title "It's Later Than You
Think!"]
People In Agony
The terrible suffering
of the Great Tribulation
Nov. 26/03. K. In
my dream I saw myself in the town. Everything was at a standstill. No more
singing, no more laughter, no more rejoicing. Men and women were suffering
in an agony of atrocious pain and grief. The trees were dead, dry, no more
fruits, and the animals also were dying.
The Moon Catches Fire
May 27/02. K.
The Moon Catches Fire! (Tribulation!)
The moon coming out while the sun was still
shining. I saw the colour of the moon. It was like a fire. Suddenly the moon
changed into a cloud of fire. At this time Angels began to descend to the
earth at the speed of light. I was terrified.
Meaning:
The moon can be a figure for the Church. She reflects the light of God. You
don’t expect the moon to come out while the sun is still shining: this could
represent the unexpectedness of what is to come. Intense trials! The Church
is going to be engulfed in intense fiery trials!
Time Of God’s Judgement
July 1/05. K.
This is the time of God’s judgement
I saw the sky opened and there came out of it 12
strong and bright angels clothed in white. They held in their hands books. I
heard one of them saying, “The time is coming for the books of Judgment to
be opened.” I waited eagerly to see the books opened but they went in a
group of 4 to the four corners of the earth with lightning speed. After they
left I became afraid and my whole body was shaking.
Meaning:
It is time for God to judge the world. 12 depicts God’s government, hence
the 12 angels. And 4 depicts the entire earth. This time of judgement is
worldwide.
More Hurricanes And Floods
July 2/05. K.
More hurricanes and floods coming
People were running from a strong wind which blew
from behind them. Most couldn’t escape. The wind took them and they
disappeared. When the scene changed, heavy rain poured from the sky and I
saw floods everywhere. I thought about Noah’s flood and became afraid.
Huge Fireball!
June 2/02. K.
Great Ball of Fire!
From the sky I saw a great ball of fire fall on
the earth at a staggering speed. In its path it annihilated everything,
devastating all before it. I was in mortal terror, and I saw myself as if
also wiped out by this fire. [There would be no hope without Jesus.]
However, fortunately it fell some distance away from me. I sought to protect
the people who were with me. My heart was beating like a hammer. We were
spared.
Earth On Verge Of Destruction
Aug 14/03. K. The sky
seemed to be on fire. Meteorites were falling to the ground and the world
seems on the verge of destruction.
Churches Will Be Closed
March 31/03. K. The
coming closure of churches
I had forgotten something important in a house. When I returned to pick
it up, the house was closed. I was discouraged. Someone came and told me
that I can’t get the object because a large snake was sleeping on it.
Meaning:
The coming
closure of churches and control of Satan to prevent God’s truth going out in
the Tribulation.
12 Bright Stars In The Sky
Dec 23/03. K.
End of the world coming SOON!
I saw 12 white and bright stars in the sky. I
heard a voice saying, "The end of the world has come." It seems to me that
the voices were coming from those stars.
Meaning:
Compare with Rev 12:1 – The woman, which partly symbolised Israel, was the
first recipient of God's truth, and meant to preserve it. She had a garland
of 12 stars on her head. Victors of races, sporting events, or conquests,
were presented with a garland to wear on their heads.
The symbolism infers that
those who overcome will inherit the honour of ruling earth with Christ. 12
is the number denoting God's government or rule. And the stars are symbols
of angelic beings who will decorate such a government.
Notice also in Rev 12:10 the
loud voice, as Kassahun heard in his dream, and the time which is the end of
the age. This is confirmation to a modern prophet of what John saw in his
vision in Revelation. The end of the age is very close!
