One would be a fool to think that an office of man-made administration supersedes an office of appointment by the Most High. Let God send me a beggar with a Word from God in his mouth rather than an arrogant politician with a license to tell me only a word if it best suits his political agenda and the building of his personal kingdom.
Answer me, oh intelligent one...who is in authority over you? The bishop of your state? ...Or the outcast shoe salesman that God calls to send warning to you in your church where you reign supreme by right of "lineage, passage, appointment or privilege."
God's getting ready to upset our preconceived notions of "decency and order" and hierarchy of leadership. As with the Sanhedrin and High Priests of old, God is getting ready to shake up those who call their selves "leaders" and the "authority" in the Apostolic Pentecostal circles.
If you think God won't do it...step to the front of the line. He's going to restore five-fold ministry to the body and shatter the myth of "pastoral" or "ministerial" fellowships. As was prophesied at Ohio Camp Meeting last year, God will do it no matter whether you like it or not. It was spoken again this year.
And to the one who could not tell me to my face after several direct requests as to whether God called him to the city he's in or not...You know who you are and you know the answer is NO, and it's time to stop trying to build your own kingdom and move on before he sends in a Samuel of old to send you on your way. I spoke to you bluntly that night and yet you would not hear me... even when it hit you in the face. It's over. Don't make him send someone to remove you from your office like your predecessor.
