A letter to a friend.

I do appreciate your input into me.

If I offended you please forgive me; I had fears too.

We both have to understand its not a “I’m of Paul, I’m of Apollos” glory in any way, eh.
Some years ago I was lost in law and sin, the devil had me believing his lies,
I was really only existing in faint hope, but allowing condemnation to be my measure;
then The Holy Ghost sent me on a search of the scriptures
to confirm They were the Unified Trinity of Love and 
that Love endures forever and I was Loved of Them.
After I had established a “beachhead” in that search,
He brought (what I now understand to be) anointed five fold ministers into my life. 

David Hogan opened up the realisation we are well able to pull down the works of the devil when we put ourselves out there.
Curry Blake nurtured and opened up the absolute nature of Christ’s victory in His earthly walk and at the cross.
Andrew Wommack and Joseph Prince show me that Jesus is Grace personified and my old self performance rule based believing is vanity and it vexes the spirit.
Bill Johnson, Kris Vallotton, Danny Silk, Beni Johnson are giving me glimpses
of how a supernatural church can experience
the worship, the honour, the prophetic, the miraculous, the shepherding,  etc in its ministry.
Heidi and Roland Baker give me the best example of the upside down position of apostles.
John Crowder and Benjamin Dunn have dispelled the myth that doing God is so serious, and now i truly understand that God is really Happy and He is not worried by my mistakes.
Toronto Renewal upsets my neat theologies, to show me: it is His church after all; His thoughts are not my thoughts and His order is not my order, so stop the inflexible procedures.

I’m such a novice in the things of Heaven, basically, I’m just leaving the “unbelieving believer” mindset.
I think I have NOT had an anointed minister for any of the perfecting gifts through most of my walk.
That, only became really apparent when I started to try to cover the 5 fold ascension gifts in my bible study group.
I consider the teaching of my previous denomination to be just a little more than secular teaching where the Bible can be approached intellectually
and so the teaching becomes only as big as a human brain!
and because God made the brain,  it is still pretty amazing at times;
but when it is deceived by unbelief and limits the Spirit, it is pretty ugly too.

We need anointed 5 fold ministers in our lives for the establishing of the church.
Hearing about them and even learning at a distance is good;
but I think we need to invite them into our very presence to get the Holy Ghost benefit
i.e. the group humbly asks ministers in to give direction, and their blessing to the group.
I've found ministries in S.E. Queensland that nurture and stretch me spiritually, good stuff.

These new revelations should not be pared back to ideas that might fit in to the old system eh;
that might give the appearance of liberty, but only for a little while.
Another division (even on Grace concepts) without submitting
to anointed 5 fold ministers would still keep the group intellectual.
I am not missing the divisiveness of organisational politics;
it is always a good decision to keep true to Jesus, I think.
This is a time of unlearning religion.

The Holy Ghost is our teacher and comforter.
I can’t get you to take hold of the truth
just as you can’t get me to get hold of the truth;
The Truth is only revealed by The Spirit when we ask Him to move on us.
Blissed by what He does through us.
Always encouraged by His Words.

You are important in the Spirit, so be sensitive to Him, He wants you in Freedom.

Catch up soon,
Jesus Love to you,
