Some yes, some no. People tend to teach their own opinion and doctrines rather than the actual teachings of Jesus. If you want a book that will rock your world in this area, "What's Wrong with Protestant Theology" by Dr. Ruthven from Regent Seminary fits the bill. The bottom-line summary is that the central teaching of Scripture is that each one of us should know God personally and walk with Him in a real relationship. Unfortunately, denominations, churches, and theologies tend to give principals and rules rather than equip the average believer to actually walk with and know God.

Real-talk here, not looking for a debate, just sharing my heart.

My biggest objection to Reformed theology is its handling of most things related to experiencing God. A plain and simple reading of the Bible leaves you with the conclusion that it upholds those who listen to God's voice, respond by obedience, and experience His miraculous power at work in their lives. I mean, almost every single hero of the faith is commended for this - they heard God's voice and responded by obedience in the face of suffering and doubt.

The problem I have with Reformed thought is that it bristles at terms like "experience", "hearing God's voice", and "miraculous power". The problem is even more pronounced when Scripture seems to indicate that "knowing God" is closely related with hearing His voice spoken in your heart and experiencing His miraculous power at work in your life.

If we're not careful, we can nullify the clear teachings of Scripture through a variety of fancy terms and extrabiblical concepts like "special revelation" and "descriptive, not prescriptive" and "that has ceased upon the closing of the Canon" while missing the very heart of the Bible, which is a personal relationship with God.

This problem is articulated perfectly in the book "What's Wrong with Protestant Theology" by Dr. Ruthven from Regent. A masterpiece that greatly helped me get back to a "walk of faith" with God.

Why do I keep coming back? You guys are one of the only groups that is basically committed to Sola Scriptura.

I mean, we could go line by line if I had time, but sure, here's some rapid fire answers to you:

  • "hyper-charismatic ‘Signs and Wonders’ movement" - Wrong. The Third Wave movement under John Wimber was called the Signs and Wonders movement. This is not a part of the Third Wave movement (a movement which largely centered on the Vineyard). And the Signs and Wonders movement was called "neo-charismatic" which was actually a de-emphasis of charismatic nonsense and a focus on biblical teaching.
  • He argues for the necessity of signs and wonders for God’s glory and his nature to be revealed. - This isn't specific to Bethel. Bible scholars have noticed this trend in Scripture. See this for an in-depth discussion from one of the leading theologians on the things of the Spirit in the Protestant world.
  • Johnson encourages Christians to stop focussing on “our need to protect ourselves from deception” - Super bad misquote and ignores Johnson's other messages on the preeminence of Scripture and the clearly revealed word of God.
  • Johnson says to “stay away from Gideon, Samson, Solomon’s Proverbs and the Song of Solomon. - Horrendous misquote and it's bridged with another misquote to make it sound like Johnson's saying something he's not. I've read the book. Here's the actual quote. This is intellectually dishonest on the part of the Gospel Coalition to publish.

    3.  Read—find the books that have been written by the generals of God’s army—those who truly do the stuff. There is a great storehouse of information for those willing to pursue. Don’t forget the leaders of the great healing revival of the 1950s. God’s Generals, by Roberts Liardon, is a great place to start. If you’re afraid of reading about those who later fell into sin and deception (some of these people ended in disaster), stay away from Gideon, Samson, Solomon’s Proverbs, and the Song of Solomon. The author of those books also ended in tragedy. We must learn to eat the meat and throw out the bones.

    Johnson, Bill. When Heaven Invades Earth Expanded Edition: A Practical Guide to a Life of Miracles (p. 4). Destiny Image, Inc.. Kindle Edition.

    His argument is that just because someone sinned doesn't mean their works are useless. If they fell into sin, listen to what they wrote but don't imitate their life. What a horrible misquote.

    And I could keep going on, but this is frustrating how ill informed and slanderous this nonsense is.

This book changed my life and my walk with the Lord. Because of this, my "personal relationship" with God is becoming more "personal" and "real".

This book has my highest praise.
