Beware the New Prophets is a strange book in many ways. In essence it is a ‘hot’ warning about error, a repetitious cautioning about the power of falsehood, a jumbled historical story of things going awry, a wake-up call to naive believers, and a rambling mish-mash of personalities, movements and harmful teachings.
Aimed at US Christians and originally published in 1999, this is now a dated reaction to the excesses and errors of Toronto and Pensacola, penned by a Pentecostal pastor who is passionately concerned about believers being misled. It has been re-released and contains new material on Bill Johnson, Mike Bickle and Todd Bentley. Yet it feels mainly ‘old news’ and mainly for the US market.
