ORIGINAL: bluestone Hey I have a question for Earthless: Explain the difference in WOF and extreme Prophetics. are all E.P.'s WOF? Are not all WOF E.P.'s? We have been needing an "Ask Earthless" thread. [:D] I hope you don't mind if I throw a couple of cents in on this. Extreme Prophetic is a "ministry" of Pat Cocking who changed her ministry name to Patricia King with of course, some "prophetic" pomp. She is part of the Canadian crowd like Bentley and Wes and Stacey Campbell, and obviously the whole Toronto group, just f.y.i. Those in this "prophetic" camp apparently share the thought of "power in the tongue" believing that spiritual, unseen forces are at work due to what we say, with the WoF crowd. Word of Faith, as in Oral Roberts, Kenneth Hagin, Kenneth Copeland have their own branches and camps but share in the idea of m-o-n-e-y coming to you because you "believe" and "confess" that it will. Can you really get these ideas from an honest read of the Carpenter from Nazareth? No way. These ideas put the focus on "you" instead of Christ. It has been really strange watching as these camps come closer together. Whether you're on a head trip about making your life prosperous, or one about being so spiritual that you get more visions than every prophet in the Bible put together, faith in God and the simplicity of Christ and the Gospel gets left behind. Here's a strange tie. Apparently a CD of prayers by Lou Ingle and "ecstatic" prophecies from Stacey Campbell. Something was said at Lakeland about different "streams" coming together. From Lou Engle being close to Mike Bickle, Bickle's friendship and compatibility with Rick Joyner, Joyner with Wagner, Campbell and Che Ahn endorsing Bentley, to Patricia King's statement of "love" for Bentley and thoughts that a negative spiritual force had been unleashed against Bentley by criticizing Christians, this media-working, conference-promoting crowd endorses one another with hardly anyone asking how all the different prophetic proclamations...and prophetic failures...and lack of Scriptural support for them...could be of God. For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by themseves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise. (2 Corinthians 10:12)
