You know, the other day I wrote what some might consider a controversial paper concerning some old acquaintances from a type of “Cult,” which I had some contact with, as I spent a few years Praying in their 24 Hour Prayer Room. 


So, anyway the holidays are over, so I thought this morning that I would edit out a few of my reporting’s. Sometimes I am forced to report some negative events in which I witness, but I try to do this only when moved to do so, by the Holy Spirit. 


I don’t ever want to be known as a person who would seem as to betray a friend, gossip or slander against another human being  unless I felt that there was a “direction,” from the Holy Ghost to do that in order to “right” the many wrongs in the “body of Christ.”


So, as I was getting ready to delete several topics which I wrote about, I was halted by the Lord. 


I recalled how Mike Bickle was once again trying to re-establish himself in active full time ministry. And I felt as if the Lord would once again have me share a few insights into the situation.


You see, I am quite aware of a couple of aledged  felonious incidents which happened in the IHOP so-called church, and were subsequently “Covered Up,” by at least a good twenty to fifty close members in each incident. 


Therefore, I cannot see why God would commission Mike Bickle in any form of practical ministry involving others. This is just not in line with anything that I have ever discerned or learned concerning the nature of God and I have been in the practice of understanding the “Nature of God” for over fifty years.   


I believe that I heard  a number of these well intention ed devotee cult members were going to "Fast," for a week and in so doing they were hoping that God would change his nature and his attributes which have remained solid for what?

 

Well, at least before the world had ever existed. and before that there were probably at least another hundred years or so?


Nonetheless, it all sounds like Mike has been taking up the 'mantle of teaching again." 


Can you understand what I am saying?


It is very reminiscent of the crap that he taught while i was observing the place like fifteen years ago.  

 

So, anyway right before I started this paper I ask “Google,” a few questions. 


Following taken from input that I had asked of “Google AI” :


AI Overview


Whether failing to report a murder is a crime depends entirely on where you live. In the United States, private citizens are generally under no federal legal obligation to report a crime they witness. However, some state laws and unique scenarios completely change this rule. 


State-Specific Laws (Like Texas)


In the user's location of Houston, TX, there is an affirmative legal duty to report crimes.


  • Failure      to Report a Felony: Under Texas Penal Code § 38.171, it is a Class A misdemeanor      to observe a felony that results in serious bodily injury or death, and      fail to immediately report it
  • .
  • Exceptions:     You are only legally obligated to report it if a reasonable person would      believe it hasn't already been reported, and if you can make the report      without placing yourself in immediate danger of serious bodily injury or      death.
  •  
  • Active      Concealment vs. Not Reporting

Simply failing to pick up the phone and call the police is generally not prosecuted unless a statute (like the Texas law above) is violated. However, you can be charged as an accessory after the fact or for obstruction of justice if you take active steps to help the neighbor get away. Examples of active concealment include:


  • Hiding      or destroying the murder weapon.

  • Helping      the neighbor clean up the crime scene.

  • Providing      a false alibi or lying to the police during their investigation. 

  • Mandatory      Reporters

If you work in specific professions (e.g., healthcare, education, or law enforcement), you have mandatory reporting requirements under the law, though these most often pertain to child abuse, elder abuse, or ongoing neglect rather than witnessing a homicide. 


Disclaimer: This information is for educational purposes. If you are involved in a situation involving a violent crime or need immediate assistance, consider contacting local authorities (such as the Houston Police Department) or a criminal defense attorney to understand your specific legal rights and safety options.


Author’s note: There are a few reasons why I asked a hypothetical question and used ‘murder,’ as the crime. Far be it from me to suggest that Mr. Bickle might be guilty of the murder of a “Uriah the Hittite, which had become the person in which David felt that he had to murder in order to keep his adulteress affair with Bathsheba hidden," but I thought that it would be a good crime to submit to AI. Nor am I suggesting there was another murder involved. 

Are you tracking with me, I don't wish to be sued for liable for goodness sake, as these clues can be a little sparse, so pay attention. 


Well, since I ask the question and it assumed that I was in Texas, it gave me a wrong answer since I was talking about crimes committed in Missouri?”


So, I asked about Missouri?


AI Overview


Under Missouri law, you generally do not have a legal obligation to report a murder you witnessed, provided you do not take any active steps to help the perpetrator. However, if you actively hide the shooter, lie to investigators, or destroy evidence, you can be charged with a felony for Hindering Prosecution.

 

The specific boundaries of this legal distinction are clear:


  • Mere      Silence is Legal: Simply knowing about a crime and not contacting law      enforcement does not make you an accessory or a criminal in Missouri. You      have a constitutional right to remain silent.

  • Active      Concealment is Illegal: Under Missouri Revised Statutes Section      575.030, you commit the offense of hindering prosecution if you harbor,      conceal, warn the suspect, or prevent anyone else from aiding in their      apprehension. This is a Class D felony.

  • Shooting      Incidents: If you discharged a firearm that caused injury or      death, Missouri law explicitly requires you to report it to law      enforcement immediately under RSMo 577.068. Failing to report your own shooting is a      Class A misdemeanor or Class E felony. 

  

And so, do you see what I am getting at? 


I believe that if Mr. Bickle wishes to once again sleaze himself into some type of  personal ministry for other young men or women, then he ought to be as David was and to truly “repent” for his sins. 


You see, I spent a few years in that church and I believe that there are at the least, “fifty individuals” who could testify to both of these criminal acts which have been committed in that “cult” during Bickle’s administration as Leader.

Nevertheless, I know that in the past many of those people were too indoctrinated and confused to report such crimes.


 I had written a few times suggesting that these people confess those crimes in which they had taken part in toward their “Cover Ups.”  


I tried to encourage those young men and women explaining that although the secular law may have all of these "Loop holes," as to why you don't necessarily need to report that abuse, God still says "YOU are obligated to me to do it, if you wish to remain in my OBEDIENCE."

But you see, the church has been walking in disobedience for decades. 


Later I will explain why our society has fallen so much from decency. You see, it is because while in the church there were all of these hidden felonies committed and sins against individuals yet the church just buried all of them and swept them under the rugs of each ministry. 


Well, this opened the door for Satan to present himself before God and to tell God "You can no longer hold me back from releasing  great wickedness on society because it is done every day in your church and committed by those who call themselves your children."

 

Do you understand what I am telling you?

 

By allowing "Sin," to become so hidden and prevalent in the church, God had no recourse, but to say "all right Satan you have my permission to release a greater flow of evil in the world, as this is what my own children are doing every day in the churches. I would be a hypocrite to forbid it from the world when it is accepted in my houses." 


Therefore, until the church begins to grasp hold of it's own sins and becomes accountable for them society is just going to get worse. 


. Nevertheless, it has been a year since many of you  have been washed off of the sleaze since this leader and others probably had such a control on the many people who had been indoctrinated over the years. 


But what I want to point out is that,  so long as you were part of those "Cover ups," you will be carrying that guilt for the rest of your lives. 


Do you realize that through all of your "silence" this individual is able to just step out of bed one day and to say to himself , "Hey, I don't feel as though I screwed up as many lives as I could have, I think that I will go back into ministry and ruin the lives or to cause a few million more individuals to screw up their "Salvation." 


Are you following me?


You know, many times as I have prayed for individuals to be filled with the Holy Spirit, I will find that there is a reason as to why some can't receive it or the "Gifts," that God has for them. 


Well, let me submit to you that many times it is because as a Christian they have gone to church and been instructed to ask God for forgiveness of their sins. 


So, they readily obey and then posture themselves into a forgiveness attitude. Next, they come before God and then they transfer almost every sin or transgression in to the light of God's presence knowing that once it is there then it becomes "forgiven." 


Nonetheless, in many cases, a particular "transgression" may come to mind, yet they dismiss it. Well, time goes by and they need "Prayer," answered. Perhaps, it is an emergency of a sick family member, maybe it is while they are seeking God to be filled with a particular anointing of healing or something, maybe it is a financial burden, but they bring it to the Lord and it is as if you are talking to an empty wall. 


So, as I said, there have been times when I have prayed for someone who is expecting something from God, yet after deep prayer you begin to understand that they have been carrying something for years and were never able to ask forgiveness for it. 


Therefore, it was hindering the things of God from being released into their lives. 


Kenneth Hagin used to tell one story of an elderly lady who was sick. Just a petite little thing such as a "do gooder" person who if you looked upon her you wouldn't think that she had ever sinned.  


Well, he was a visiting evangelist, so every year he might have an opportunity to pray for her or something.  So, what had happened was that she had contracted a very serious illness, so when she came for "Healing Prayer,"  he would "lay his hands on her," as is biblical and practiced in the Pentecostal churches. 


Nevertheless, every time that he Prayed for the woman, he stated that it was like praying through a brick wall, he couldn't ever get past that "something," which was keeping her from receiving.


Well, he was having a week crusade, so once again, the woman comes up for Prayer the next day. Same thing, "brick wall," so she sits down. It is now the third day or whatever, and once again he has an altar call for the "Sick." 


The woman comes up and he once again lays his hands upon her, yet there was nothing. You see, when a Christian enters into the "Spirit," it should be very "tangible" if you have any experience at all in the things of God. 


So, anyway, Dr. Hagin knew that there was something which once again would be hindering him from escorting this older lady into a realm of FAITH, where the "Spirit," dwells, where healing and miracles await .


Nevertheless, a few seconds after he had laid his hands on the woman and they both knew that it was a dead silence and it was all going to be repeated, she blurted out something. 


She told him without him having to ask her, she said, "When I was a little girl I was asked by God to be a missionary and I told him "NO."


Well, could I tell you something that most people don't have a clue about? 


Many times, God will ask a person to do something in order to see if they are going to be obedient. God already knows the answer which you are to give, but many times he wants you to know that you are "walking in disobedience." 


And so, once this lady confessed to Brother Hagin she was freed from a curse which SHE was holding onto for a lifetime of self accepted misery. 


And so, this is what I am telling you individuals whether the "cover up," happened in the IHOP cult, in a Mega church, in a children's ministry what ever, if you have been "Covering up for an individual," or for a scandal, If I were you I would report it. 


You see, if you don't then you are bringing upon yourself the curses in Deuteronomy 28. 


You see, I say this because it can affect the Prayers for your Mother and Father, the financial benefits or anointing s that come with the obedience of Christ and the gospel. it can affect the way that your children will turn out, it will affect so many things that I am not even aware of all that you will be bringing to yourself by your choice to remain in disobedience. 


And this is a friendly piece of advice to Mike Bickle, as well. 


Would you like to get back on the old Pony Mike? 


Then why don't you repent for once, as you should have a long long long long time ago....


In fact, Mike, why don't you become a "Born Again," Christian. I know that you haven't a clue concerning the Holy Ghost, so perhaps this might even lead you to truly have fellowship with the person of the Holy Spirit, as well? "
