Wandering Stars: Contending for the Faith with the New Apostles and Prophets

by Keith Gibson, Craig Branch (Foreword)

"It is a serious thing to claim to speak for God. So serious, in fact, that a prophet who claimed to speak for God and whose words did not come to pass was to be put to death according to the Old Testament. God takes both His Name and His word so seriously that He gave some of the harshest rebukes in all the Old Testament to those who were claiming to bring revelation from Him that He had not sent. One final note. There is always the temptation when dealing with a subject of this nature, to pull out the most outlandish quotes in an attempt to make one's point more forcefully. Though it is certain that some will feel that this is exactly what has been done, I have attempted to resist this temptation. While an extreme example has occasionally been used in order to demonstrate how heretical the movement is at its fringes, for the most part, I have attempted to use quotes from those considered more 'mainstream' within the apostolic and prophetic movement. It is my desire to demonstrate that the issues addressed in this book are rampant within the community and not isolated in one or two marginal teachers. It is my sincere prayer that this book will be used in some small measure to awaken the church to the seriousness of the errors being propagated within the apostolic/prophetic movement and to call the church back to the truth." - Keith Gibson

If you're dabbling in the realm of current day apostles/prophets, or know someone who is, this is a must read. The author does a great job of clearly and concisely noting the significant errors and concerns associated with movements like IHOP. It is obvious that the author has done extensive research into the topics he is addressing; yet, he treats the individuals involved with charity and fairness. When I first picked it up I thought it might be a dry read; however, I found it to be a very quick read because it's packed with first-hand illustrations and humor that make it both informative and enjoyable!

A must if you want to begin to break free of the carapace of extra biblical doctrines forced on us from US based Dominionists who call themselves Prophets and Apostles we must align too.
