Todd Bentley is at it again. This time he is confronting a spirit called Leviathan who apparently works with the spirit of Jezebel.




In the last few weeks in prayer, I have come up against a spirit called Leviathan. I have recently heard other ministries talk about this spirit. One pastor recently in a vision saw this serpent crawling into the church basement. I believe this demonic power works hand in hand with the spirit of Jezebel. Some have even had a vision of them both hand in hand. When we get victory over Jezebel we need to watch out for this Leviathan spirit. There are only a few direct references to this spirit in the scripture, but as I have studied out these passages I have received some revelation on how this spirit attacks. Who is Leviathan? How do you expose and counter attack his assaults? (source)
The more I research the world of Todd Bentley the stranger it becomes to me. How and why do professing Christians buy into Bentley’s lies and visions? I’m not sure if Bentley actually believes what he is saying or if he is just another con-artist using superstitious people for his own personal gain. The outrageous claims that he makes are ridiculous. In the past, Bentley has claimed to talk to various angels including a banker angel.

This Leviathan wants you to be destroyed and carried away with the lies, gossip, slander and accusations he will bring against you and if he can he will carry your friends and those who labor with you in the ministry away in the lie and deception. He wants people to believe the lie and accusation against you. Number one, he wants to slander your character and bring reproach on your name. (source)
You can visit Confronting The Spirit Of Leviathan: Pt. 1 and Confronting The Spirit Of Leviathan: Pt. 2 for more information about this heretical teaching coming from Todd Bentley.

It seems that no matter what Todd Bentley does or says people still defend and support him.

1 John 4:1-6 (New American Standard Bible)

1 John 4

Testing the Spirits

1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

2 By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God;

3 and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God; this is the spirit of the antichrist, of which you have heard that it is coming, and now it is already in the world.

4 You are from God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.

5 They are from the world; therefore they speak as from the world, and the world listens to them.

6 We are from God; he who knows God listens to us; he who is not from God does not listen to us By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.

Well, if any preacher would have an intimate knowledge of Leviathan, Bentley would.

Aw, SNAP!!!

Really? Wow, what interest rates do they offer. What are they listed under on the stock exchange? Do they offer debit cards, and do they have atm machines or perhaps even personal contact like the banks of old used to have?

Continuing this idea, what about mechanic angels? The mobile scrapheap I venture out onto the roads in could use some supernatural tinkering, it's just about beyond human help.

Other useful help for me right now would be a computing-expert angel....my internet and computer are about as slow and reliable as a geriatric snail with parkinsons, alzheimers's and MS, and my hard-drive is about as organised as a teenager's bedroom after a tornado.

On the subject of tidiness, how about a cleaning angel.....supernatural household help is one thing this bachelor would consider welcome. As the years go by, the imprints left by a strict father and an even stricter drill sergeant are fading. No longer the spotless white-glove-inspection capable abode of yesteryear, the den of micah needs help...

While we're about spiritual sub-contract labour, how about an angel that can assume my form and appearance (tough call, I know) and go to work for me. As a creature with no need for mortal sustenance and also immunity from fatigue, it could do my job much better than I and I get to keep the wage, and the credit for a job done flawlessly. Not sure how to work out tax arrangements and superannuation, but the stand-in is sure to know a canny Scottish accounting angel...

And last but not least, a personal minder-angel as general go-fer....with an immaculate tuxedo, a plummy British accent and going by the name of "James", and the ability to quick-change into a tough Italian enforcer-angel called "Tony", micah's delusions of grandeur, luxury and ease look like being fulfilled. Must get into contact with Todd Bentley to see which outsourcing agency he uses. Then again, maybe not.......

Who you gonna call?

We can laugh if we want or cry..the drama is,in my modest opinion,that in this great zoo of "churchianity" there are a plethora of charlatans and false prophets and con men and women...WHY?
Because we have not done our home work..."the church" at large has abandoned the healthy teaching of The Word of God exposing herself to the perils of wolves in sheep clothing and all sort of brigands and thieves!
Church of JESUS CHRIST,WAKE UP!
Bentley,Hinn,and Copeland and ....I mean they are toooooooo many,way too many to quote are AFTER YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY and are PREACHING DAMNABLE HERESIES !!!!

I could not and would not care if an Angel or a man or a woman would PREACH ANYTHING bu JESUS and HIM CRUCIFIED!!!!( Only thanks to HIS GRACE,because without HIM I am a total zombie!)

In 38 years in the most Holy Faith ( thanks to His INFINITE GRACE and LOVE) I have witnessed in first person a lot of this junk!
Nothing new under the sun,brothers and sisters,it is the dirty work of the archenemy of God and the believers,but still is tragic....very very tragic...

More than "FRESH FIRE" we are talking of "STRANGE FIRE" ...and we know that the 2 sons of Aaron got BURNED OUT,BOLTED to ashes when they presented STRANGE FIRE to The Lord...
ANY FIRE that does not come from THE TRUE ALTAR of GOD is a STRANGE and DEADLY FIRE...
BACK to THE CROSS family!
BACK to THE CROSS of JESUS and THEN we can go to the UPPER ROOM to be empowered by THE HOLY GHOST TO BE WITNESSES of JESUS DEATH and RESURRECTION!

This people want "signs" just like the Jews of Jesus day and "wonders" just like the Greeks of His time...

WE HAVE THE RISEN LORD and HIS BLESSED SPIRIT and WORD,we do not need NEW PROPHETS and BLAZING PERSONALITIES .....like this Todd Bentley charlatan and friends...we need NOBODY but OUR GLORIOUS LIVING LORD and we need to walk humbly in His Presence because it is HIS GOSPEL not our message,HIS KINGDOM not our puny small world of nothing!
We need to pray that The Lord stops this circus...but more we need to pray that we all go back to base..starting with me,I am the least and the last and I need HIM most!

SHALOM!

[mattfivefour]

Right on, Roberto!!!

Jesus Christ and Him crucified! Power to serve ... not be entertained or puffed up. Christ held up, not a man. The gospel preached and the Body built up, not a ministry.

Thank you Adrian,and of course thank YOU JESUS!

In this forum I do not know in person any of the brothers and sisters BUT in the bond of His Spirit and Love I enjoy a great fellowship and I have learned a lot....even when I have been corrected ,especially when I have been corrected....why? well,because here we all have one desire,which is to bring glory and thanksgiving to our Lord and build each other up in our most holy faith....without playing "holier than thou" or "supersaint"....of course in ourselves we are not perfect neither infallible,but HE is INFALLIBLE and HIS WORD is INFALLIBLE TOO and so we can sustain each other and encourage each other while we wait for His glorious appearance....so,I simply pray our Lord that He will help us more and more and that the Forum will be blessed with new arrivals and that many people reading the posts will be directed to Jesus and belive in Him and be ETERNALLY SAVED! WOW....that is GRAND!
We are also blessed with mods like you Adrian and Chris and others ....stop Roberto...stop playing the violin!
Ciao!

Maybe Todd should spend more time in the Word,and so should the people listening to him... James 4:6-8 (New King James Version)
6 But He gives more grace. Therefore He says:

“ God resists the proud,
But gives grace to the humble.”[a]

Humility Cures Worldliness

7 Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. 8 Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.
