Roundtable: Brown & Storms vs. Peters & Osman

Every book in the New Testament, with the exception of Philemon, contains warnings about false teachings. Wolves in sheep's clothing pose a real threat to believers, and Scripture teaches us to mark and avoid them (Romans 16:17-18). However, there is substantial disagreement within the church regarding the biblical definitions of a "false teacher" and "false prophet". This debate is tied to differing views on the nature and continuation of the Holy Spirit's gifts, particularly the gifts of healing, prophecy, and tongues.
In a four-hour roundtable discussion, Justin Peters, Jim Osman, Michael Brown, and Sam Storms sit down to discuss these disagreements in person for the first time. We trust that this conversation will edify the body of Christ and provide clarity on these divisive, yet critical, issues.
Note: This roundtable discussion was recorded on April 1, 2023, six months before the news related to Mike Bickle's sexual abuse became public. Sam Storms' and Michael Brown's joint-statement can be read at 53:25.

I used to be epileptic, having seizures all over the place. A man of God pray for me and I haven’t have a seizure in 26yrs. My faith in God was none existing at that time. The man had faith and God heard and answer his prayer. We lived in a fallen world and God never promise us a pain, disease, sickness free life. God can use your sickness / disease to reach millions of people and bring many to salvation. Or He can use your sickness / disease to reach just one person. Or God can use your sickness / disease to draw you closer to Him in relationship. God is good and perfect whether He heal or does not heal. Trust. Believe. Obey Leave the rest to God.

They know they are false prophets and frauds, but if they start doing so, where does it end? There are NO people they can point to, out of the thousands of people claiming to be talking with God, not a single one, that they can point to as having a single “prophecy” come true. It’s the Achilles heal 😉of continuationism. Without a single person to point out as having ANY prophetic ability, you have to give them all some sort of cover, or it all falls apart. Poor Sam Storms, he bet it all on MB even after having made excuses for the two “biggies” before Bickel, Paul Cain and Bob Jones, both of whom used their “ministry” for sexual abuse. If you can’t call someone who tells women God told him to have them undress in front of him a false prophet, do you see why they can’t call out others like Benny Hinn?

[@edwardgollihugh2019]

@collin501 name one supernatural gift that is practiced as is described in the New Testament. That's right you can't because healing was immediate, prophecy was spot on (as is required by the Bible), and most miracles were done at the hands of the Apostles among the people. About the year AD 55 to 60 the miraculous gifts started to dissipate. If not why would Paul have left Trophimus sick at Militus and he told Timothy to take some wine for his stomach and frequent ailments (not to seek a faith healer or even to "heal" himself).

[@collin501]

@@edwardgollihugh2019 I disagree with the idea of “practicing” but I don’t think that’s an essential part of continuationism. I agree the gifts were spot on and immediate. To your second point, the gifts have been more or less in different times and places, as the Spirit wills, In Bible times and since then. So what? That doesn’t justify an out of context interpretation of 1 Corinthians 13 about ceasing.

[@timothyharris4246]

Upon hearing Justin’s description of how Benny Hinn taught the 9-member godhead, Storm’s replies, “But do you know his heart?” Using this metric we can’t call ANYONE a false teacher/prophet. Storms needs to provide biblical proof for his metric of discerning a false teacher. We know a tree by its fruit and we test every teaching to God’s revealed truth (Scripture). How can we claim to know someone’s heart? 2 Cor. 11:13-15 “For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. So it is no surprise if his servants, also, disguise themselves as servants of righteousness.”

[@babyboy91582]

Upon hearing Dr. Brown's description of Martin Luther's comments and actions (fruits). Justin Peters and Storm both affirmed him because of his doctrinal beliefs. They were both quiet about his fruits though as it was not beneficial for their position. So Martin Luther said the right things "doctrinally", but his actions were contrary so he's not a false teacher.

[@johnstevenoliveras815]

Every false teacher in scripture preached things contrary to the gospel and were UNREPENTANT in doing so. Jesus engaged with the Pharisees and only condemned them when they were unrepentant. Even Pharisees and false teachers turned and got saved. What I’m seeing is CAUTION being exercised which is wise. I think Brown and Storms should watch more videos of these people after this talk because I too believe they are false teachers but honestly I understand why they’re not jumping at it because these people are not the majority of Pentecostals. As someone who grew up in the charismatic movement I can attest to that. Are there issues in the charismatic church? YES! And I expose them, but are there big issues in reformed church too? YES! I’ve also been apart of reformed churches because I’m a Bapticostal 🤣. At any rate Peters does a lot of KZbin searching but by his own admission in the video has only been to a “few” regular charismatic churches and read just “a bit” of keener’s work on miracles. I don’t find him to be a credible or serious source on this when you haven’t done the work. I’m sorry. Just my thoughts

The end of the verse is even clearer: “12 What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside? 13 God will judge those outside. “Expel the wicked person from among you.”” 1.Cor 5,12-13

[@StEpHeNno22]

And "those inside the church" are supposed to be friends as Jesus was friends with the apostles ("I have called you friends," and "as I have loved you, love one another"). The context for that is that Jesus spent 3 whole years eating with them, teaching them, correcting/rebuking them when necessary, and doing ministry work together with them. That all creates a level of personal knowledge about a person that you can't find just doing public research about a public figure. That's the distinction I would make from how I think you're applying that verse about judging those inside the church to how Osman and Peters seem to apply it to publicly known figures. What anyone knows by their personal relationship with someone, yes, they can absolutely judge fairly, and brotherly love--love from an actual believer, for an actual believer--will be the context for that judgment. But we're talking about judging someone outside of that personal knowledge of that person, the way the apostles definitely knew each other oh so well.

What I find so frustrating about Brown and Storms is whenever they're asked about whether someone should be denounced as a false teacher, their response is always "I haven't watched the show/I haven't done the research/I know the person or people who have spent time with them and so that's how I discern whether they're genuine." They just seem willfully ignorant. Why would you engage in a discussion like this without bothering to do some research? I'm sure they could find time to watch some of Hinn, Copeland, Roth etc. They just don't want to.

[@truthlover710]

Exactly! God does not command us to "sit down with them and talk about it" we are commanded to "mark and avoid." It's like they think there's only 3 false prophets in the world!

@@de1623 i agree it wouldn't be my argument either. But Mike lived a double life that everyone who affirmed him would now denounce. I think they had no reason to be skeptical about him because of the public image he put out to even his closest friends. Thus there was no reason to question the prophesies either. It's a sad situation. With these kinds of conversations I would try not to lean on the personal relationship aspect but I understand that's hard when you've done life with someone for decades.

I grew up Pentecostal and since I moved away from my own town, a (Christian) classmate of mine was dying of cancer and 2 people from my childhood church, said they had a dream that he would be healed. He was not healed and passed away. He was in his early 30’s with a young wife and 2 young children. I heard of healings that never happened. We know that God heals whom He chooses to heal. My mother dies as well, when she was 36 yrs old, with breast cancer. She was really hoping to be healed but was realistic and knew that God doesn’t heal everyone. There’s such a mixture of beliefs among Pentecostals and I’m so glad that my eyes have been opened and I am no longer part of that denomination. Thank you for your ministry Justin. I had the opportunity to meet you at a conference in Calgary, AB this past Fall.

[@ProphetGreg94]

Why would you think someone’s ministry that teaches false doctrine? Just because thought they heard from God in their dreams doesn’t negate the the truth of God speaking via dreams. You haven’t read the book called miracles, written by Dr. Craig Keener? There are medically verified, peer reviewed studies demonstrating the effectiveness of healing through prayer independent of the help of medicine. Believe the Bible, not your lack of experience.

[@davidwireback8621]

I am so sorry that you were part of a group and that your friend died of cancer after someone had a dream that they would be healed. The scriptures tell us that we known part that we prophesy in part. Meaning that we don't always get it completely accurate. That's why the word tells us to judge and to prove all things. In this case this person who had a dream either misinterpreted it or it was his own wishing that his friend was healed of cancer and was not. But to decided that you're no longer be going to be part of a denomination and now you're going to completely reject What scripture say still is taking place. The people are healed people do see dreams and visions because we're still in the last days they will end when Jesus returns. My prayer for you is that you would be involved with a fellowship that teaches a balance understanding and the use of the gifts. They have not ceased.

If his actions are of God (and we all know they are not), why the manipulation of the feet and ankles? If his so-called healing is of God and for His glory, why can' t he just say, " In Jesus' name you are healed." ? The answer is so obvious; he can't, and it's NOT for God's glory. These "hucksters" and "charlatans," as Justin so aptly names them, are deceiving millions and millions of people. Storms asks Justin "to what end" is his exposure of these false teachers. To the end Scripture affirms-to warn people and drive us back to the Bible, the only true revelation of God, and to give all the glory to God.

But I do appreciate the fact that you said to Justin why don’t you look at the good things that are going on as well and that’s where we are at Calvary Chapel. we believe in healing, we believe in the gifts of the spirit we believe in the empowerment of the Holy Spirit. and there is truly a mystery to healing.

Sam said:"......I know this man to the depth of his soul." He obvious didn't know that man well at all. He just gives grace freely to everyone, and reluctant to call out some false teacher and charlatans.

[@danielwarton5343]

I grew up charismatic and believed i was speaking in tongues, I used to give people “words from the Lord”, I have been “slain in the Spirit”. I had a friend who handed pit handkerchiefs that were prayed over. I attended big charismatic camps and listen to the big teachers. About 6 years ago I came to see that the cessationist point of view is correct. I know God heals today and I still pray for people, but we don’t see the miraculous gifts in operation today like we see in the book at Acts. It was for the establishment of the church, Ephesians 2.

[@docbarm3338]

I’m so confused by Sam Storms - he says he would never declare “Thus sayeth the Lord…” or “God told me…” it was EXTREMELY common in ihopkc and Mike Bickle did it himself and his own Ihopkc historical prophecy is BASED on “God told me!” It’s also a normal part of Bethel Redding teachings and many many other hyper charismatic churches!

[@jovemministro]

How can a true believer defend Benny Hinn? How can they defend Hinn from being a false teacher and false prophet?

[@akadwriter]

AMEN!! You get it. People love to defend false teachers MORE than God's Word! Sad.

[@aborowka]

Simple. They are all charismatics. BTW, since most of them have gift of 'prophecy' how come nobody DID SEE it coming?

[@coreybassard]

Amen. 1 Corinthians 5 makes this clear, I don’t know how Brown can defend Hinn when the scripture says not even to associate with people who call themselves brothers yet are greedy or swindlers-“not even to eat with such a one.” I think Hinn is on display for the whole world to see, so if Brown made an attempt to call out Hinn that he might repent, good on him, but the fact that he said we don’t have the right to judge “a brother” and that the caller needed better discernment is an error of itself and goes against verse 13 of chapter 5: “God judges those outside. ‘Purge the evil person from among you,’” references to Deuteronomy. He should rebuke him outright.

​@@aborowkaI asked that question, the remanant radio guys all claim to have words of knowledge, yet they sat there doing like 15 programs, programs that were very silently taken down, and none of them picked up on what bickel had done or that it was about to all come out. Hmm, how can that be, does the Holy Spirit not know what bickel had been doing for the last 30 some years or he did know but he isn't talking to RR guys. I'll go with the latter.

[@Ann-ig1ss]

My husband and I were attending an Assembly of God church unaware. We didn’t know anything about Christianity and picked a church because friends went there. They spoke in tongues and it was weird and uncomfortable. No one ever discussed it. Some other man would always lie down in the isle and moan. My husband decided to get baptized there and the “pastor” never asked him a single question as to why. After my husbands baptism, the next man to do it in line came out of the water and said “Praise Jebeez!!” ….I will never forget that and it’s led me to de- and reconstruct what we learned there and I learned about the entire history of the Pentecostal movement. I believe it’s a false religion. Primarily because at every precipice of its growth, there stood a deceived woman leading their charge.

@@frankielee5623what you said and referenced is not making any sense

[@samanthanichole6096]

Last year, I did a lot of research on Benny Hinn because one of my local churches (where my friends and family attend) was hosting him for a miracle crusade. I kept hearing from my own family that Hinn had repented, I told them he was still teaching the same things. It took me all of thirty seconds to search his KZbin channel and find a recent clip of him telling people to “sew seeds” (meaning give money to his ministry) for blessings from God. I am so tired of people defending him. He is still deceiving and needs to be called out for what he is- a wolf. A wolf who is preying on the Body of Christ.

[@AtTheDockOfTheBay]

Hi Sam, Hinn came to my old Word of Faith church in 88. Although I was on staff, I refused to attend the service, because I didn't like Hinn. Immediately after the service, the rest of the staff rushed Hinn to the senior pastor's office while tightly huddled around him so no one could touch him or talk to him. The sight of it made me sick. I didn't attend their stealthy conference with him, but the pastor's secretary told me later that the pastor asked Hinn how he generated such faith from the audience. Hinn said he placed "plants" in the audience to act like they got healed, which generated a heightened expectancy. She said pastor wanted to implement this fraud in our (his) church. Both of us didn't like that idea, and pastor never implemented it, thank God. That was about the time that the Lord used a book that the "church" secretary haphazardly turned me onto which opened my eyes to the false doctrines of the Word of Faith and their true origins (D. R. McConnell's "A Different Gospel"). Months later, I gave my two weeks' notice and left on good terms. Hinn is a fraud! Kenneth E. Hagin Sr., who mentored Copeland and other Word of Faith teachers, published a book several years before he died that basically exposed the fraud of the "hundredfold return" called "The Midas Touch." He first called all of the Word of Faith and prosperity teachers together, including Copeland, for a private meeting. He warned them to stop preaching the hundredfold return and told them why. Of course, they all refused to quit preaching it. None of them, not even Copeland, have ever mentioned that meeting with "Papa" Hagin, nor promoted their beloved mentor's book. As you read Mark 10:29, 30, you will find that Jesus says nothing about giving and receiving "money". On the contrary, it is the blessing of one who has "forsaken all" to follow Jesus as an apostle, missionary, or evangelist, to preach the gospel in other lands. As they would win souls for Christ, they would not "want" for family, because they would receive them as family. Thus, Jesus said, such would receive now in this time, a hundredfold "houses, lands, mothers, brothers, sisters, children, AND in the world to come eternal life." Eternal life cannot be received by giving money, only by giving one's life to and for Christ. The "sower" of MONEY does not exist in the Bible, but the sower of the WORD for the salvation of people does. If your family follows Hinn, show them from the gospels and Acts how neither Jesus nor the apostles taught the multitudes the things that he teaches. For instance. Ask your family to find a "sermon" by Jesus or the apostles where they told the multitudes to "sow seed" into their ministry and they would receive a hundredfold return, or their miracle, or their breakthrough, etc.? Or ask them, in which sermon did they teach the people that they would get their healing or prosperity if only they would "confess" it? Or, ask them in which sermon did they not heal someone only to tell them to keep confessing it at home until it manifests? Once they cannot find in the sermons of Christ and the apostles what their favorite false teacher says, it will open their eyes to their fraud. Any verse can be twisted. But their own sermons to the crowds proves their twistings of scripture to be a scam. The lives of Jesus and the apostles also prove the fraud of the false teachers false teachings. Example, where can you find in the gospels or Acts where Jesus and the apostles practiced confession equals possession? Where can you find them confessing "divine health"? or prosperity? or "money, come to me" (as Copeland and others have done)? or "I am a little god"? This is where you should hit pay dirt with them. It will put necessary holes in their dikes. I wish you well.

[@frankielee5623]

Which Church does not ask for Offerings and monies? Given what you have assess, then all Churches of God were Wolves. Or, only your Churches don't collect Offerings, don't ask for monies. Can you tell me the name of your church, now to prove you were Right or you are a False Witness and a slanderer of Benny Hinn?

We need more of this kind of discussion among Christian leaders serious about following Jesus in word and deed. While I’m a practicing continuationist and found myself on the Brown/ Storms side of things, there was much to glean from both sides. I loved not only the various points of sharing, but the respect and careful listening that was given and received by all four. Blessings.

[@Obi-Wan81]

So you also think that Benny Hinn shouldn't be called out and is a genuine believer? Similar to Michael Brown. This is Benny Hinn who believes that are 9 people in the godhead and who has openly been stealing money from vulnerable sick people for decades in the promise of a miracle that never happens. When Jesus said, "by their fruit you will know them" - he was pointing out those that claim to be believers, but actually, do not know Christ at all. I do not know of any genuine believer who would do what Benny Hinn has done for years, and not be convicted of the obvious sin he is committing. Let's call it what it is - people like Benny Hinn are frauds. But if that is the type of person you want to side with - then that's on your conscience.
