The End-Times
I believe the greatest point of contention that men will wrestle with at the end of the age is the identity of Jesus. Is he just a good man that lived a few thousand years ago or is He fully God?
I’ve been studying Christology lately, and even just yesterday my roommate Tim spoke to some Jehovah’s Witnesses at our door. As we were talking last night, we both quickly made the point that the root of the problem in their faith is their misunderstanding of the person of Jesus. They believe He was just a mediator for a super-spiritual class of believers throughout history, the 144,000 “spiritual Jews”. They don’t believe He is God, and they believe He is still dead and was never resurrected, contrary to the belief of all of the New Testament writers. read more »

Wes Hall, a teacher at the Forerunner School of Ministry (a part of IHOPU), speaks on the subject of why it's critical for every believer to study the end-times. Studying Jesus is much more than studying the 89 chapters of the gospels - there's so much more to Him that we must become familiar with lest we stand with offense in our hearts as He shakes everything that can be shaken before His return. Wes presents a clear case on why and how to study the end-times. The British accent really helps too :)
A great movement within the western leadership of the body of Christ has arisen. Endless debates on methodology and incessant emphasis on practical preaching with its "how-tos" and down to earth applications has swept us into seduction of compelling need and enticement to be unique, while little mystery and majesty concerning Jesus is preached in the land. We have a little taste for the eternal, the glorious. We exchange the burning gaze of the seraphim for the unyielding boredom of practical process. In 2 Cor. 5:20 Paul warned of those in ministry who boasted in appearance but not in heart. read more »
From the Kansas City onething conference, 2007. Derek teaches on the Lord's "anointing" and what it looks like for prophetic musicians. He demystifies it and defines biblically what it means to be "anointed" and "prophetic".
Satan has a far greater understanding of the power of music than we do. It’s why he is giving so much time and effort into making sure all sorts of music that directs men away from Jesus gets thrust into the ears and hearts of men today. According to the Psychology Press, “music is a complex acoustic and temporal structure that induces a large variety of emotional responses in listeners.” Scientists and psychologists have debated much over the issue of music and its affect on human emotions. Practical investigations have demonstrated that basic emotions, such as happiness, anger, fear, and sadness, can be recognized in and created by musical stimuli. Some hospitals are even using “music therapy” to make people feel better and heal faster . The simple question which continues to baffle scientists is simply “how can vibrating air and sound waves affect human emotions?” read more »
There are two worship movements being raised up as we speak. Both worship movements will have music that deeply moves the human heart. Both worship movements will make people laugh, cry, and cause people’s desires and passions to be stirred to worship someone. Both worship movements will be powerful and will even demonstrate supernatural signs and wonders. read more »
Misty Edwards, a prophetic singer and musician here at IHOP-KC, taught on prophetic singing at the Onething Conference in December 2007. Highly recommended if you're a singer or musician!
Music is the greatest form of entertainment in every culture and in every generation throughout history. Why? God has given the human spirit a deep musical dimension. There is something so mysterious about music. How do you hit a piece of wire in a guitar or piano and deeply move the human heart? When we hear God’s truth through anointed preaching it moves us. However, if we hear God’s truth in context to God’s music – music anointed by the Spirit – it moves us much deeper. read more »
Jesus will return soon, but are we really prepared for it? Do we know who He is, what He values, and how He will rule? Billy, the leader of IHOP Atlanta, challenges us to pursue the knowledge of God and to walk out the Sermon on the Mount in light of Jesus' second coming. Given at onething Atlanta, 2007.
Allen breaks down Psalm 29 as a psalm the end-time church will be singing in the midst of the judgments of God. If you are a singer, musician, worshiper, or lover of Jesus, definitely listen to this one!
