Is absolutely crazy to me that I have read the book “when heaven invades earth” by bill johnson and was unable to spot those things as total heresy. I thank God for His patience with me that He finally opened my eyes to see the truth

I appreciate the the fact that you can talk about that though and not disrespect them or their pastor. I see other videos where it's mocking and nothing but disrespect.

My family n I started to feed homeless every Saturday and we actually got their trust. They started asking us for prayer and they took us in. Recently a “Bethel” group of Christians started showing up in the park and scared all the homeless people away with their crazy beliefs. Terrible!

Anyone thinking that the leaders of Bethel have "good intentions" but are just going about things in the wrong manner needs to hear testimonies of those who have escaped their false teachings. Lindsay Davis has done very eye opening interviews on their tactics.

I just cried at Costi’s comment that God is still good even cancer is there. This is the message of the Bible and what Christians need to hear today. That is real faith!

I met Costi's dad in 1982 in Drayton, ontario.He stayed at our house for 4 days while he preached at the pentecostal church next door to us.Costi was only a few months old so we never got to meet him.We saw his dad Henry a few years later in Edmonton and he said he didn't remember us but I saw that he did .we've never seen him since except on my computer.too bad. I would loved to have met Costi.

Enduring faith is holding onto God through thick and thin. It's faith in who God is.
It seems that Bill Johnson and Bethel Church put people's focus on what God can do for them, rather than on what He has already done in the cross of Christ, and the fact that human beings owe Him honour and worship and obedience.
It's still a "man-centred gospel, " rather than the God-centred Gospel.

As a Christian man it blows my mind how many so called Christians can distort the gospel.

The hope is many youth in the NAR movement will learn discernment and find reformed Christianity and not become bitter from disappointment from false teaching. Emotional times and they use it!

Thank God for the illuminating power of the Holy Spirit to convict every SINCERE heart searching for the truth!Once upon a time „many of us“ were also in error! Had it not been by the generous GRACE and mercy of our Lord and Savior, where would „we“ (former Pentecostals) stand theologically today?
Thank you for this somewhat challenging interview! Grace, peace and wisdom from God the Almighty be yours always! ♥️ 🙏

Thank you for exposing this movement. I have 14 years of study and investigation of Sozo after losing a family member to Bethel Sozo in Redding California. Sozo emphasizes fresh, current, extra-biblical revelation over the written word. They pay lip-service to the “bible” but usually only quote enough passages—usually out of context—to sway the “clients” into believing it is a biblical practice; it is not. The regressive memory therapy movement (RMT) died out in the mid to late 1990s after malpractice lawsuits and overturned convictions resulting from those accused based on false recovered memories. Then, much of the public understood the dangers, however time and events have swept this knowledge from public consciousness. The movement morphed into churches and Bethel Sozo sprang upon the scene, arising from total ignorance of the false recovered memory movement—I have documented proof of this—and now it is growing exponentially. I am in contact with victims from all over the globe who have suffered devastating tragedy and loss, and currently filming a documentary of those harmed.

To preface, I would consider myself a charismatic Christian, and one who mostly agrees with Bethel teachings. I want to say, I really appreciate Costi's kindness and humility in this video. He seems very genuine, and wants people to know the true Jesus, and the true gospel. I appreciate and respect that a whole lot!

One of the core misconceptions that they addressed in the video is that Bethel teaches that Jesus lived as only man on Earth, laid down his divinity, and thereby gives us an example as believers to follow in pursuing miracles, and healing, etc.

I would say that I would totally agree with Costi, that if Jesus died as man, then there was no atonement for our sin. Jesus died as God. I believe that Bethel would agree with that, that Jesus walked this Earth fully God, and fully man. I think Bill's argument(which is founded in Phil. 2:5-11), is that Jesus willingly withheld his divine power while on this Earth, and operated in the power of the Holy Spirit while he cast out demons, healed the sick, preached the good news of the Kingdom. Jesus had access to that power anytime he wanted, he was still fully God, and I believe Bill has said that Jesus wanted to model for us what it would look like to be fully yielded to the Holy Spirit. We obviously aren't Jesus, and will never be fully yielded as Jesus was, because he is perfect. But the rest of this life for us, is learning to crucify the flesh, and learning to be yielded to the Holy Spirit, and letting Him have His way in our lives.

All 4 gospel accounts record Jesus being baptized and given the Holy Spirit, and then going into the wilderness for testing. According to scripture, Jesus didn't do any miracles until after he was baptized and filled with the Holy Spirit. Maybe Jesus did do miracles before He was baptized and filled with the Holy Spirit, but Scripture doesn't mention if he does or not. I think Bill is arguing that Jesus purposely withheld Himself and his Godly power, and did the miracles as man(meaning in man's human limitation fully empowered by the Holy Spirit). In doing so, gave way for us to walk in the same power of the Holy Spirit today! This might not be the best example, but it's kind of like the tv show Undercover Boss, when the CEO comes and works as a cashier in a local store. At any moment he could use His authority as CEO to promote, demote, fire. However he chooses to be limited to his authority as a cashier.

I think Costi is right, we do need to make sure the core tenets of our faith are in line, which include a right view of Jesus. I don't think they are fully understanding Bethel and Bill Johnson's view of Jesus being both fully God and fully man. I hope this better clarifies Bethel's view on the matter.

Lastly, just again really appreciate Costi and his desire for unity amongst believers, and making sure we are aligned on who Jesus is, and the true gospel!
