IHOPKC Responds to Mike Bickle's Statement
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ธ.ค. 2023
- IHOPKC addresses Mike Bickle's initial statement regarding the allegations against him, emphasizing the need for an independent investigation to reconcile the differing narratives from Bickle and the Advocate Group. We urge individuals with pertinent information to reach out to Rosalee McNamara, the appointed independent investigator, in our pursuit of truth and openness. For comprehensive information and ongoing updates, please refer to IHOPKC's social media platforms and official website.
Read Mike Bickle's full statement here: cdn.subsplash....
There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed, sooner or later.
In your life also
@@owlsonik37 pointless response, her statement says she knows that truth!!
@@seannel4996 and yours
I have read it.... multiple times..... there is no true Biblical repentance whatsoever in this statement.... there is defending, denying, and deflecting... plain and simple, period.
you are an expert?
Yup.
@@wordwatch2it’s common sense that you don’t need to be an expert to see. you are blind?
@@BestBibleVersionDotComyes. Matthew 18 which he has yet to do with any of the victims. In this case, if the allegations are true which I’m inclined to believe they are, he is facing serious damage to his reputation which would put him in a place of disqualification from any church leadership and will put him in the hands of the court and law enforcement with possible punishment.
Thank for yourself. Pray for yourself.
actually this is a nice attempt to sweep it under the rug....just saying there is alot more to it than oh i was inappropriate 20 years ago..sounds light right..but that is not what the witnesses are saying about it
Obviously your sin does not rate on God's Leader board. God has not needed to bestow any grace nor redemption to you. Show me one Christian who has not fallen short and who has perfectly handle their issues
@@nardinoo1951 that isn’t the point. The fact that we all sin, and need a savior does not negate the responsibility of leaders to repent truthfully and clean up the mess they’ve made (consequences) that have affected people under their influence. You all make me tired 😂 I was just pointing out that he didn’t really say what he did when he asked everyone to forgive him. Just a blanket nonspecific forgiveness.? it’s just not really repentance or an apology when it’s that vague. there have been allegations that he did some pretty serious stuff so if he didn’t do it would be nice to know what he did so we also know what he didn’t do without that information. We can forgive him, but we don’t necessarily have to trust him.
yes to some this would be nothing ..but this is a person under the care of an authority figure...she matters even if it is just one.@@Jobbi-Diaz
And I agree that there is always consequences to our sin. That is a given fact but to say that he did not truely repent makes me tired. The layers to this sisuation are many and not at all clear cut. I absolutely feel for those victims and I feel for Mike because he being drag through the town square and being stone to death. As I've said before I have been in Church close to 60 yrs. Different Churches and I have never seen a Perfect Pastor or leadship handle serious issues 100 percent perfect because they and we are not perfect.
No one will get away with anything. He God will being to light what is in hidden. See you on the other side. Take Care
@@nardinoo1951 what a pathetic example of a man of God....the bastard!!!
You can't use the line that your sin is "under the blood" as an excuse to avoid the consequences of your actions. If Mike was truly repentant, he would have confessed his sin to his leadership staff 20 years ago, and if he upheld the standard of the word of God, he never would have entered ministry - his willful sexual sin disqualifies him from being in a leadership position. There is forgiveness, but there should not be trust. That is how severe this sin is, and it should not be minimized; the word of God certainly doesn't minimize it.
@@BestBibleVersionDotComMike’s own standard on record is that he would never let Bob Jones on stage again after his impropriety, (see Remnant radio interview on topic) and that anyone in IHOP was to be completely above reproach in the area of holiness (hear tapes from 90’s with Bob). He transgressed far beyond what Bob did here and should at the very least apply his own standard to himself.
Did he have a "leadership staff" 20 years ago?
@@BestBibleVersionDotCom
1 Timothy 3:2
Titus 1:6
Mike is not above reproach and a one-woman man. Disqualified, according to Biblical standards. Also, God killed David’s son because of his adultery. Doesn’t sound like God swept it under the rug.
@@janwalters2148 He didn’t start IHOPKC alone.
Fortunately for you, Krista, Mike asked us not to criticize disdainers like you. It sounds like you were a close disciple of his some 20+ years ago, no? Like you are an expert on what he did and did not do 20+ years ago? Please educate us, since you know so much about it and are qualified to judge him in these matters.
it’s not detailed - it’s vague and doesn’t specify what he is admitting to. creating sorrow & confusion in the Body is not remedied by a vague & nonspecific “repentance.” Mike Bickle needs to specify what he is asking forgiveness for, and IHOPKC needs to require this of him.
Why?
nope. but he hasn’t said at all what he did that he’s asking forgiveness for and that isn’t a real apology.
kind of a snotty thing to say? most leaders involved in this situation as well as the majority of those commenting would agree that the truth needs to be brought to light & the Bickle apology doesn’t really say much. I’m not policing anything, I’m commenting as a believer in the body of Christ, who has felt deeply grieved by these accusations, and I think Mike Bickle owes the people he has affected a little more clarity.. I suppose I could be wrong, I don’t consider myself an authority. I’m just commenting as a person who has been affected and still praying through the aftermath. It’s a simple fact that his “apology” didn’t say what he did.
@@ginawhite1661
His statement DOES NOT HAVE TO delve into details of what he DID DO.
What he DOES admit that he DID DO wasn't of the same nature as what he has been accused of doing.
He is being accused of doing serious sexual things he specifically DOES NOT admit to.
The ongoing and pernicious inference that people want to immediately make is that the not admitting to language infers that some delicious truth is being denied. There's an underlying gossip column presumption of guilt where guilt has not been established.
Look, if I steal $10 and am later accused of Grand Theft, I can make a completely truthful statement that is in the exact form Mike uses: I can truthfully admit to theft, AND I can truthfully not admit to theft of the more serious nature.
I'm saying I've been guilty on a certain level, and it isn't the level my accusers say.
Yes, he needs to specify morally speaking. However, I realized that that may not be advisable legally speaking at this time. He needs to follow his lawyer's advice. When all dust settles, we will see if he clarifies on his sin.
so he is saying he did something bad 20 yrs ago.. but it wasn't that bad, and that he repented of it and thought it was all good, until someone brought it up
@keokio7 that’s not exactly what he’s saying. The fact is it was bad, and he repented daily to God but his big mistake was he DIDN’T EVER REPENT to Jane Doe! Just repenting to God does not include the person sinned against.
@@westofthemiddle Uh he was literally friends with Jane Doe and her husband this whole time. He donated to their ministry consistently this whole time. It doesn't make sense that Jane Doe would still be in contact with her "abuser" like that. There were things that Mike Bickle did that was wrong, but even Jane Doe voiced that she believed that he repented, but I think some rumor went on that he was doing the same stuff again, not sure how, and then she blew the whistle on it finally. Not saying she wasn't abused, but I'm just saying things were definitely blown out of proportion. And they all pretty much repented and let it in the past until recently.
He needs to step down as a spiritual leader and take responsibility. He is a wolf in sheep's clothing and has no place leading any congregation EVER AGAIN. He should actually go to prison for his behavior, like anyone who has sex with a minor. How can you say it wasn't that bad?
His statement does not suggest that he revealed this at the time that it happened to his wife or to his leadership. He did not confess his sin to anyone other than God. He did not make amends to these women. Without these elements, what he did was not true repentance in any sense of the word. He has clearly deceived himself as well as those around him about the purity of his life. It’s truly unfortunate that a man of such influence could be so spiritually immature and self unaware.
you really don't know the details do you?
If those things had happened, it would have been revealed already and he would have most likely mentioned it in his statement. If it had been dealt with then in the proper way, we wouldn’t even be talking about it right now.
Why did Jane Doe and her Husband continue to contribute to his ministry all these years later? This makes no sense at all. Something is wrong. Someone is being paid to lie I think.
An independent third party investigation means it CAN"T be the law firm that represents IHOPKC, be sensible , this is exactly why they won't talk to your lawyer!!!
That is a serious concern
Repentance. I love that word. We all love that word bc by the grace of God we all have been granted repentance. Thank you Jesus!❤
Amen 💕💞✨☺️
You need repentance and long period time of changed behavior. Anyone who has the ability to talk can say Words of repentance. But their actions show if they truly are. His actions are not showing repentance. Listen to Dr. Henry cloud about repentance of abusers
What did he admit to? Bad mistakes? Anything adulterous is not just a bad mistake. Well, Jesus said if he even looked on a woman in that way....... His statement is no statement at all. And you, sir, need to stop putting this on the victims. Maybe it's a good idea to consider them in the choice? Lastly, you may think your little slogan, "proof of the truth" is cute, but it's not. It's silly, and this situation is everything but. Next thing we know, you'll be printing t-shirts. Stop.
Bickle sexually assaulted a 14 year old girl and a 15 year old girl and they don't. care.
This is the third time YOU have NOT chosen an independent 3rd party….
Why is it not independent?
And this is 3rd time you need to stop stressing over other folk business. Go pray
A corporate defense atty advocates for the client not the victims It needs to NOT be a law firm.@@diysolarready
see sunday service, they did
Yup. They are lying.
I see two things here...First, God desires a greater level of purity than our previous concepts of purity; second, just as we are aware of the need to be alert to attacks against the physical power grid, we need to be more alert to any weakness that makes the grid of spiritual prayer power vulnerable to the enemy's attack. IHOP is a dynamic city of that prayer power that God has established. Perhaps God in His mercy has used this situation to bring UNITY to the body of Christ regarding guarding our hearts in the midst of our prayers.
Amen!
God waits many years out of His love for us and has great patience. Mike should have confessed these years ago and made amends to all he hurt. THAT is the biblical way. So, God is now exposing many of our sins due to the End Times, and because perhaps, he wants to use Mike in a greater way. Whatever, He is doing this for Mike's benefit. Just because he has even forgotten ALL the violations, does not exonerate him. I actually believe he doesn't even remember because there were 'multiple occasions'. Yes, all of us who love IHOP must pray that the injured will be healed, and way to wholeness be found.
Amen. I love this comment.
IHOP was never built with God in the first place. This is ignorance now, willful ignorance.
To all those involved, past or present, with IHOPKC,
A Call For Fasting And Prayer
For those of us who have been dedicated to IHOPKC for decades, and that net casts far and wide, if we know anything it’s how to pray. Words can not describe the pain of these past 6 weeks. It’s been horrendous for those of us sitting on the sidelines. Waiting. Watching. Reading. Learning. Processing. Families and friends divided. But we know how to pray. Quite frankly, I’m surprised IHOPKC has not already made a call to fast and pray over this.
For the next 3 days, 12/13 - 12/15, let’s fast and pray.
Pray for TRUTH
Pray for JUSTICE
Pray for WISDOM
Pray for Advocates
Pray for the Jane Doe’s
Pray for those still sitting in the room
Pray for those that have left their faith because of their time at IHOPKC
Pray for the leadership at IHOPKC, including their lawyers and PR firm
God will hear our prayers
If you think about it, why is it such a horrendous thing for you or anyone? Is your and other people’s faith in man? I understand. I’ve been part of a ministry whose leader fell to temptation of sin. A minister who was born again, Spirit filled, baptized in the Holy Spirit, definitely saved, who was bound by sin, sinned, truly repented and sinned again. Caught, defeated and devastated and everyone involved, family, friends, fellow minister, church members, and hundreds of thousands of others. It was like a funeral, but God forgives. God restores. God heals. God uses again and the sun comes up in the morning to a new day. Our faith should be in Jesus Christ and Him crucified. Don’t let another person’s sin or accusations of sin shake your world. God’s plan for your life does not change. His plan does not depend on man.
based on your proposal for fasting here, I will contribute this reply on social media chat in kind... 1) Firstly yes, Pray, but PLEASE don't reveal the personal results of how you interpreted how best to approach this sensational sexual misconduct situation at hand. Such praying is between us and God only... Please don't chat about your praying in the TH-cam social media comment section !!! Amen.
Secondly, only God holds the Truth... a follower of Christ cannot know how to judge another , based on knowing the Truth of sinning activities goin on.
Thirdly, definitely watch out for deceptive voices and disingenuous voices injecting themselves into the matter - only adding to spiritual warfare and acting as proxy. Amen. Blessed are the Peacemakers in Christ Jesus .
@@wisejojohumphrey3475 -- a very wise and eloquently written piece of advice here for hopefully all to more humbly wrap one's respective head around. Was worth the read. Peace
@@sheilaboland6285How can you forget Mike and Diane! Lets fast for ALL involved ❤
@@donkoh5738Why not chat about praying?
Not sure this statement does anything to move the process forward.
He really hasn’t admitted anything. It’s all smoke and mirrors to me. It’s a real sad situation. Lord have mercy on us all.
Not bringing in a neutral third party. What happens when Jane Doe goes public. She really can if pushed in a corner.
@@Jobbi-Diaz Slick
Report illegal activities to the authorities so sad church people don't get this
Thanks for the update. Can someone please explain what Mike is admitting to in this letter? Having trouble understanding. Is he admitting to an affair? Partial affair? Not super familiar with statements like this so I can't grasp what he's trying to say here.
And you should stop stressing over other folk business. It’s ok. Go pray.
Ihopkc needs to do this^
@@eseosarain after 20+ years at IHOP I feel ok asking questions about the man I thought I trusted all this time. I am genuinely trying to understand.
And that’s good because it shows by your questions that you are not easily manipulated.
So stay that way.
Are you going to share your sins too? Or just Mike's?
1:30 - The Challenge Is- you have not even given any recognition that the Advocate Group specifically asked for Guidepost and Stuart said no. This was early November.
Please state all of the timeline not just the ELT’s version.
Thank you
did that at the sunday service
IHOP removed my comment showing how pastor predators like to put time/distance between a "moral failure" and the present. Both Bickle and Andy Savage confessed to something that happened 20 years ago.
@@ToddWilhelmme too. More committed now to repost all over where they can’t erase truthful statements.
Instead of bashing we need to be praying for all involved and the leadership teams over this whole situation. We have a duty to lift up our leaders. This hating and bad mouthing is exactly what the Devil wants for the destruction of the end times churches. IHOPKC and other 24 hr prayer rooms will be targets of spiritual warfare. Pray in the spirit and let GOD be the judge. Only HE has the truth of M. Bickle’s heart. Love to all🙏🙏🙏
Here is the problem with what you're saying. We are commanded in scripture to hold leadership accountable... that deacons and elders are to be above reproach. We are to avoid even the appearance of evil. Mike Bickle has openly confessed that he has participated in ungodly behavior and is accused of much more than what he has now admitted to. Sadly most of the pastors in public ministry lack the humility and grace to feel shame in how they have brought shame on the name of the Lord. Bickle needs to step down and go into hiding never to return to public ministry. He has disqualified himself decades ago.
@@berns4146can you please give us the scriptures 🙏🏽 thank you🌼✨
Bickle should be arrested
Exposing abuse isn’t bashing. That’s a wrong use. It’s called accountability.
You are absolutely clueless as to what the word of God directs. Do you not understand that the word says that many should not aspire to be teachers for they will be subject to a harsher judgement in this age and the age to come.
We are also to even avoid the appearance of evil let alone fall into adulteress relationships...You don't need to be God to know the condition of Bickles heart...Bickle by his wicked actions has shown you the condition of his heart.
Love you Mike! for what it's worth, I still stand with you, will continue to support the work at IHOP! God bless you and your family.
Thank you!!! :))
Yes Mike & family ❤
Folks, Jesus isn’t our proverbial rug that we can stuff all our sins under. His blood allows us the grace to face our sinfulness and the consequences of it head on without fear of condemnation. This is the ultimate good news. If we haven’t caught on to that, then we have missed the point and Jesus’ blood is trampled on by our denial.
Никто и ничто не заполнит пустоту в наших сердцах, кроме истинного Бога, никто и ничто не даст нам утешение, избавление от одиночества и вечную радость, кроме Бога. Возложите все упования на Него. Помните, есть нужды, которые нам не восполнят ни успехи, ни удовольствия, ни общение с людьми. Ищите восполнение этих нужд в Господе.
What’s really shocking is how *some* so called Christians, (alleged victims as well) are casting stones when they themself have sins the Lord has forgiven decades ago or currently engaging in sin but are too blind to see. Psalm 130: 3-4 “If you kept a record of sins, Lord who would stand. But with you there is forgiveness, so that we, with reverence, serve you.” --- Mike’s teachings from God’s word will be refined; May he continue the ministry again. May the offended be healed and restored in the love of Jesus Christ. We all have to give an account. Mike is forgiven.
Amen!!!❤️❤️❤️
Amen !
Amen
Seeking for justice is not casting stones. The bible advises that teachers will give an account based on higher standards. If all of this is true, of course he'll be forgiven (if he's actually repentant). But not restored to ministry.
@@daviromano603 you’ll noticed I didn’t mentioned those who seeking justice. As for castling stones, I’m speaking of those who are slandering, and actually contributing to the division with their words. And I have read the words of alleged victims who are casting stones not just seeking for justice. At that point, it’s bitterness, and might I add - Hatred- which Jesus said is the same as murder.
And as someone who once operated in a bitterness mindset, (I’ve been healed and restored by the grace of God)
I know bitterness when I read/hear it.
IHOPKC has established an independent 3rd party and making some changes. At what point will the complaint community feel satisfied that justice has been served?
When Mike is crucified at the stake? for lack of better analogy.
And/or when IHOPKC- Prayer Room and Forerunner Church burns to the ground? These are comments I’ve read.
The avenue for justice has been implemented for those who feel they need it.
And why would you think he shouldn’t be restored to ministry? Like Mike mentioned in his letter, let God decide that and confirm it from Holy Spirit filled brothers and sisters in the body of Christ. Let’s not throw the baby out with the bath water.
What’s also most important is for the alleged victims to come forward and began a journey of healing and reconciliation. If they don’t, then why start the fire? Other then to cause strife, division and get there egos pampered. That’s Bible.
It will be good to see the air cleared and follow the evidence
Yeah the evidence IF it exists.
Yeah the evidence. Is their evidence of sin in your life?
@@BryanYesilonis
Witness testimony is evidence, only when the witness is sworn in, to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, in a sworn affidavit, or in a court of law. A simple statement is not evidence in a court of law.
@@sheilaboland6285 real evidence is impartial it does not care about yours or my argument. To attack me over my statement is between you and God.
POLYGRAPH: get the truth, eliminate fakers/haters
This is the saddest "apology" bc he really didn't apologize for anything...he said he was inappropriate..which could mean he burped at the table during dinner. but that is not the reason they need someone to manage this mess...or pretend it is small. it makes any real alive biblical person mad.
duh...that was my point ..someone caught in sexual misconduct..should say it...not pretend it is nothing...like a burp at a dinner.. a leader exercises authority over others and a public figure..in God's name..I expect more from The Body of Christ..some care for the individules invovled..not just himself.@@Jobbi-Diaz
im thinking it isnt going to be private anyway...not anymore and public ministries are called to a higher standard....besides that if he has repented and it is no big deal bc it was so long ago ..why is he making light of it..someone got hurt and he is suppose to be a servant and rep of Christ...so it is love to have a standard... for his sake..for his head and heart..no standard equals no love@@BestBibleVersionDotCom
@@BestBibleVersionDotComIf you are without sin, cast the stone(s). Accurate word ❤
Personally I think he did apologize for sexual misconduct - for actions 20 + years ago. More will come out, and I think he was wise not to disclose more ( yet) for the same reasons he waited this long to say what he did. From my legal background ( I’m not a lawyer, but worked in the legal environment for 40 years) that was good counsel….. It will all come out eventually. For example, if he had used the words” sexual misconduct”, wouldn’t you then also want to know more details than that? I do think it is significant, and unfortunate that the allegation group will not cooperate with a 3rd party investigation, if that is true, as they have stated. This is what is needed and the IHOPKC leadership team did well to follow Dr Brown’s advise, and been planning to do this before he suggested it.
@@BestBibleVersionDotCom Karen here was it illegal?
Why didn’t you guys find a third party investigator that the advocate group would also agree on?
Did you mean, "Why did the advocacy group object to three different nationally recognized sexual abuse investigation firms?" I'm thinking that's the question to ask. One, I can see, maybe. Two, that's odd, but mayyyyybe. Three? No, there's something fishy going on with three rejections.
@@KenGray If they were involved in the selection process, they wouldn’t be objecting to it.
@@scvillah three objections tells me otherwise.
@@KenGray I’ve witnessed a church coverup before. It goes a little something like this.
@@ReLair88 if you have the evidence, you have the evidence. Again, one I can see, 3 is sus. It really is put up or shut up time.
Stop blaming the victims for refusing to participate in a process they know is rigged from the start. Why are YOU so afraid of an IMPARTIAL investigation? Lawyers work for THEIR PAYING CLIENTS. No matter how many times you say it is impartial, the victims and the rest of the world know that it is not.
It is not the victims-victims story keeps changing .The advocacy Group Lawyer Boz Tchividjian Is The one not speaking . Boz said my client will not Be speaking to This Law Firm He Founded a Group called Grace He would Like to Use Grace He Founded, That is The Conflict of Interest . From reading His Post i do not think He is going to let anyone talk to anyone He dosent Pick . No one Likes an Ultimatum i Do not , so This will Drag out for who knows ?Not The victims not speaking it is Their Lawyer ?
False. Boz never indicated they should use GRACE (but they should agree upon a third party). He knows that GRACE would be a conflict on interest and unlike IHOPKC, he plays fair. Have you heard of Boz before this scandal? I’ve spoken to him personally this past year about my own case…..he is THE attorney and is nationally known for standing up for victims abused, silenced and steamrolled in the church.
Just read what He said ,There is so many Armchair investigators on this platform you can Hear anything , IThe only Person that i see They Got it is Right Is Julie Roy's She is who i would use if needed , also Jimmy swagger Jim Baker this is not a new Thing i went through The swagger one , If i Misspoke i apologise But I can copy & Paste They will not be talking to this Lawfirm. I would never use Guide Post ,Yes i know about The Petetion I live Far away & not Dewayne or Allen , Brian or Wes But another section leader was Quoted , and I was a Founding Member of IHOP Macon Georgia , and I would take Stewards word over His anyway, he hasent been there long But you would Think sense 1999 .He tried to contact me yesterday , i do not know but one reason he would Foe sponsorship i guess? He admitted He broke a vow or trust with Stewart , which did not change anything .@@Jendoyle
IF the allegations are true. We will know if they are true or not after knowing correctly the facts. It was the same with Johnny Depp, people firstly were agains him and after the trial they were supporting him. Its not because there are claims that those accusations are true. May be or may be not. Do not condem before knowing it.
read his whole statement..his concern is "his preaching"...that is a big portion of his "apology"
so so so so so so so SAD !!!
i
I am thankful that Mike Bickle founded IHOP. I am convinced that what happen 20 plus years ago was dealt with. The enemy wants to destroy what is built through this ministry. Thank you for this personal letter. May God give you even more of His Super Natural wisdom in this situation and false allegations. I listen to 24/7 worship all the time. May you all be blessed. What the enemy meant for evil, God will turn around for good. :)
you have no idea what has transpired, so how can you be convinced all is well and has been dealth with? do not let your eagerness for a resolution mislead you.
It has not. He’s just been permanently removed for more recent clergy abuse
I am so confused. His sexual sin was before IHOP so why is the punishment so harsh?
That is a mis use of scripture. And you are wiping peoples pain and trauma away like it’s nothing. That’s why this needs to be addressed in the church. That you think you can just dismiss people’s pain is the most cruel and ungodly thing to do.
That’s why it’s not repentance. It’s manipulation. He picked something to admit that happened long time ago because people will say exactly what you just said. And he knows it that’s why he did it. It looks like an repentance. It’s deceitful and it’s what abusers do. How they gaslight. And Christian’s in the church are the best for gaslighting because they can find for every manipulative act a bible verse to give them a read to sweep it under the rug.
If ihop is not interested in a cover up they need to cooperate and engage with the other side when deciding on who will do the investigating. Instead they pick first and then blame victims for not cooperating with their choice.
Good point
When there is no repentance, God brings the sin to light so that the soul might be saved.
Praying that God reveals the whole and complete truth, regardless of what that truth might be. The only important thing is to know what the truth is, so that the situation may be dealt with fairly and accordingly. May we all continue to pray for all involved. Please remember that cynicism, hate, unrighteous anger, slander, and gossip, among other things, are sinful and unhelpful in this situation. Let us all be careful with our thoughts, words, and attitudes. For God knows all and sees all and He measures the heart. May we continue to serve Him, especially now. 🙏💕
Also, remember, the Bible says we will know people by their fruit. IHOPKC, do others know you by your fruit? How you all handle this situation, especially, is critical. Remember that the world is watching, including unbelievers, and that you are witnesses for Christ to them....whether in a good way, or a bad way. Please let that witness be a good one. The current situation is already challenging enough already, please dont give unbelievers MORE excuses to remain unbelievers than they already have by continuing to speak in an Unchristian way about the subject online! It's okay to have an opinion, but in your anger, do not sin. And whatever you say, don't tarnish your witness. I earnestly implore you, as a sister in Christ. ❤
Anyone thinking Bickle’s statement is anything but an attempt at redemption without confession and repentance, and attorney speak, is sadly mistaken. I’ve been in and around the general ‘prophetic’ movement for thirty years and this statement does not pass the ‘smell’ test. I could easily tear it apart paragraph by paragraph, but the essence of the problem is his response to the primary accusation: he asserts his repentance twenty years ago, but fails to acknowledge adultery and confession to both his wife and leadership at the time. That means either that he never truly repented and rationalizes that he did; or, that his wife and former leadership were complicit in the cover-up for twenty years. Meanwhile he raised millions and millions based on a lie of being someone he is not. The people closest to him are apparently not holding him responsible and telling him the truth. Instead, his attorneys are telling him what to say to avoid future lawsuits, in hopes of protecting him and IHOP. There is so much more that could be said. But, I am not persuaded by this - and no one else with good sense will be either. An independent third party, non-attorney investigation should have started weeks ago. Shame on all involved in what has to now be considered a general cover-up, ‘cover our A-‘ situation.
And seeing the people im the advocacy group and their long standing involvement its evident they were unaware of it. Allen Hood was there from the beginning, he never knew.
His wife should have known. He didn't repent to her because he would have included that. You are correct. She must be broken
@@Jobbi-Diazyou completely missed the point
@@BestBibleVersionDotComthe accusers are not anonymous. They are not public, but they are not anonymous. And it’s pretty obvious this is downplaying the issue to a vague “lack of judgment” and even clarifies that he is not confessing to the current accusations. Waving around the judgment seat of Christ in peoples faces because you don’t like what they say is a bit much
Karen here has he met with the accusers and their representatives to repent?? Why not?
I have nothing in this. I have never been a part of this ministry. I don’t know if I have ever even heard of Mike Bickel. I get emails from them, because I donated money one time to a young person who was going there for ministry training. I don’t feel as though it is anyone’s business except for the church there, the members of the church, the students who attend, the leadership, Bickel and his family, and any person who may have been wronged by him.
Now a days, anyone can be accused of anything. There doesn’t need to be proof of a crime or inappropriate behavior, for people to believe something happened. Think about that. A person, you may or may not know, can say you did something or said something and people will believe it and condemn you for it.
If there is something the man did wrong I pray the truth comes out. If the accusers are liars, I pray the truth about them comes out. It seems to me, the burden of proof is on the accusers. They must have evidence a crime occurred or inappropriate behavior (sin) occurred. If they don’t have physical proof or eyewitnesses, then they don’t have much of a case. If it involves a child, then that is a bit different. Even then, without proof, it could be a lie.
So again, where’s the proof. If it involves something that happened 20+ years ago, and the man confessed his sin to God and God forgave him, who are we to bring up past sin?
EPIC. Media relentlessly accusing
People need to know the truth and the body of Christ to decide if they Want to be involved with Mike Bickles ministry as he is invited to speak or minister other places. Is it longstanding continual issues? Involvement with other ministries greatly affects the body of Christ.
So happy & proud of him for speaking up. Sending love and praying for all involved. Blessings 🙏🏻❤️
KM, like your judgement of me stinks higher??
A wonderful step towards openness! The Advocate Group has not yet explained why they included the names of current women who say they have nothing but good things to say about IHOPKC and Mike and asked to not be involved. The disparity between Mike’s statement and the serious allegations brought forth by The Advocate Group on October 28th calls for an unbiased and thorough investigation. Such a process is essential not only for uncovering the facts but also for upholding the principles of fairness and justice that IHOPKC stands for. Some of the same former interns that are popular for these youtube videos also persecuted IHOP for teaching biblical discipline in favor of cheap grace; it does appear they've led many to believe in abuse is ongoing, but there's no evidence of that.
Did you catch the part in Mike’s statement where he said “I followed the advice of my lawyers….?”The victims have lawyers too. No attorney is going to instruct a victim to go to the press or go online and tell everything. Neither IHOPKC nor Mr Bickle are going to control this process. I know that must be uncomfortable for many of you.
@howyabendoin there are a few others that are 24/7. One started by a prompt of God at the same time as IHOP, which I think is awesome! My own church has a real heart for it, but the best we can do is a few hours a week, right now.
They outed themselves as on the list without their consent
Wonderful is very misplaced. He just doing damage control because the truth is coming out that is not repentance nor anything wonderful. Very inappropriate comment for such heavy situations what caused so much destruction. Christians res need to stop to make things wonderful when there is trauma, evilness, destruction and tremendous pain. It’s important to address that and it’s important to give that a place in the process. This is ugly. Sin and evil and deceit is Ugg’s. So please stop trying to to make it lesser than it is. To be able to do this for such a long period of time is not something you sweep under the rug of everything is wonderful.
FLEE from this place! It is a cult. Praise God it’s being uncovered.
For Mr. Bickle, and all involved- Lord Jesus: you are the God of all Comfort, and came into this world to forgive sinners; we all qualify. Mr. Bickle says he's confessed and asked for forgiveness. May You Lord, restore and heal the open wounds of these past sins. May those who stand with rocks in their hands, to stone him, lay them down, and walk away. There's not one without sin, not one. Help Mr. Bickle to continue cleansing his soul with acts of repentance, and like David-coming clean with You and being honest about His need for your forgiveness, and mercy. I pray this will not destroy IHOP-but that you will use it to raise Mr. Bickle up, and use him in even a greater way, and use him to restore other's who the devil has tried to destroy. Teach him to use what's happened to him, to destroy the works of the devil. Prepare your people for your coming Lord Jesus-and even so, come soon Lord Jesus.
I love you Mike Bickle. Praying for you, Diane and family and Ihopkc. Thinking of when Paul said I preach Christ and Him crucified. I’m so grateful for the Blood of Jesus that washes cleanses heals makes new. I have been forgiven much! Come Holy Spirit
He needs to repent and he isn’t fully. That letter was damage control. Please stop spiritualizing everything. He needs to repent of all the hurt pain and damage he has caused. Please stop sweeping it under the rug by talking about Jesus dying on the cross. This is a man toxic and evil hidden behavior that he still isn’t fully repenting. Please don’t enable his behavior. That’s toxic
I love how you christians race to defend and love on men who sexually abuse teenage girls.
His apology is not a straightforward admission of anything really - and that was his intent. More dancing around the subject. More will come out with or without him. He missed an opportunity :(
Can you believe he sinned 20 years ago? Who does that? Shame on him
There’s not much to confess 😂
@user-xe9dt5kc5l I'm pretty sure the prior comment you're responding to was sarcasm and meant to be understood as you said.
Mike Bickle's repented and sorrowful for behaviour before ihopkc even existed.... Are any of Us to cast stones over 20 plus years later ?
Of course we all sin, but confession of sin is paramount. What he has done is wait until he got caught before he acknowledged anything. As a leader, this is unacceptable according to Biblical standards.
The truth will set you free
Jesus said, "If you continue in my word, then you are my disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free. That's the whole quote. Many things are true, but they're not the truth. They don't set you free. They don't give you eternal life. Jesus is the truth, and only He is truth that sets people free.
@@john4226 amen 🙏
The truth that you know!
He doesn’t even mention Jane Doe in his concession. He only said this because Jane Foe had the courage to go public with her story.
Bless you all
Praying!!
I really appreciate the statement from Micke Bickle. I am praying for the Bickle Family and for IHOPKC. Be blessed and hugged from Germany!
Such a weird way to end this video announcement.
I agree. This whole video was awkward. I didn't believe for a second the speaker and IHOP are happy that Mike released a statement. IHOP wants to control the narrative, manage the perceptions. It did end like one of those personal injury ambulance-chaser attorney commercials.
“Nothing changes. Sorry for the inconvenience. Victim is a liar.” What a shock. 🙄
did not say victim is a liar, said many other allegation were not truthful.
@@wordwatch2 exactly. What does “not being truthful” mean?
@@wordwatch2 you guys have to believe Mr. “I, I, I,… me, mine, me.” I get it. An increasing number within the body can see the summary. It’s in black and white.
@@Jobbi-Diaz that’s absolutely the implication. The entire rest of the world read this ridiculous “sorry, I’m a victim” sheet.
@@Jobbi-Diaz “He didn’t say the victim is a liar. He said the other accusations are lies.” Huh? So he said she wasn’t a liar, and he said she is a liar. We know about her because of the nature of the accusations.
Love to ALL. Prayers for ALL. Jesus, be glorified. 🙏❤️
1 Corinthians 6:1-11 makes it crystal-clear that we are to judge these matters within the Body of Christ and not with unbelievers. Read your Bible people.
The entire Body of Christ must demand that not one more young woman be sacrificed on the alter of a ministry. It's endemic in the Church. And it is not Jesus' heart for His daughters. Mike can still do the right thing here. Wanna be a hero? TELL Jane Doe you are sorry you took advantage of her at 19 and that it was terribly wrong to manipulate her with the authority of your position. Tell her, the other victims, YOUR WIFE AND CHILDREN, The Body, that you are sorry. That it was terrible. And that it was not a representation of Jesus' heart. Stand up and repent.
Why is Bickle still not in prison?
Most of the comments show a lack of trust or contempt for IHOPKC.
Guilty, but only distrust and contempt for how IHOP leadership shabbily treated Mike. Mike and the IHOP ministry were a tremendous blessing to me for years and I look back fondly and with great gratitude.
Why lawyer up? Especially when you engage a law firm that is a major advocate for the LGBT agenda. I would prefer believers handle this. Is there no one in your leadership with discernment and wisdom that can uncover the truth. To ask the professing victims to submit to your process through a law firm that you engaged should always be rejected. When they refuse you attempt to shame them into compliance. Now both sides have lawyers. We will just have to watch the process play out through the legal process. I will stay in prayer.
Probably go to court
Praying for you Mike and ihop learning lessons for everyone here. 🙏
the lesson is that IHOP is a sham, ridiculously bad theology, delusional madman who makes things up as he goes, uses, deceives everyone and everything that is dumb enough to get in his sights.
He should be arrested!!!!
Christians are opposed to the criminal prosecution of sexual predators.@@jayhawk2689
Honestly, the more I hear about this, the more Mike’s statement seems to be closest to the truth. Glad IHOP is encouraging people to come forward, though. A call to intentional prayer and fasting for the truth and for God’s mercy on the flock would be a good thing.
Why are these spiritual leaders being protected by the church??? It's horrific.
How do you answer when your trying to save face,? That's all this is about.
I feel like this is part of the information war we fight. A pure lie is easily seen though, but when a false narrative is mixed with/add on a certain degree of truth (the real event happened 20+ years ago), that makes it very hard to see what is true and what is false. That can only be achieved by the Spirit of Truth, may the Lord's will be done and may His Light shine though. Amen!
@user-xe9dt5kc5l May the Lord reveal the truth to me and to you. May the Lord forbid me to be gossip.
@user-xe9dt5kc5l By the way, I myself was sexually abused when I was 13, that's exactly what I did, I tell all my friends I was raped but actually it was a much lesser serious sexual assault
Really? Then why is Mike Bickle silent?
You know by there fruits. They see the bad fruit in him. Clergy abuse from a pastor is really bad. He needs to repent.
Yeah that will work.
Things you say when you have nothing to work with.
@@mattboyles3590 The Lord has been working with me for decades to release me from a satanic “0.1% truth plus 99.9% lie” so I will not live in the narrative the Enemy want me to live in. The Lord also put my life back on right track after I told everyone that I was raped when I was 13 while actually it was a less serious sexual assault. On the matter of Mike, the Lord has a word for me and I think it's for all of us “Just drop it and move on”!
Confess to … what exactly?
Can you post the letter of engagement? The structure of this agreement and its contents demonstrate ihopkc spirit and impartiality
Long and detailed? I think not.
This was a huge mistake. He shouldn't have given any details about the case because this could be used against him in court.
I'm praying. Through Jesus came grace and Truth.
Think would be better for Mike to make an appearance. Show is face to say.
Mike should step down from the platform and get right with Jesus.
The fellowship should do everything to keep house of prayer, the body of Christ in unity with the anointing of the Spirit of Christ leading.
Mike as to do the right thing.
The problem is that you are assuming Mike's NOT "right with Jesus." That's presumption. Don't do that. It isn't right.
I'm not defending him here; I'm calling out the bad form of your argument. You're like Job's "friends" assuming that all the disaster that befell him is prima facie evidence of hidden sin in Job's life that he needed to repent of. At the end of it all, God finds Job's three friends guilty of sin saying “I am angry with you ...., because you have not spoken the truth about me, as my servant Job has." And He demands sacrifices from them to atone for their sin. God took issue with Job, but it didn't have to do with sin, as He doesn't demand an atoning sacrifice from Job over it.
After more than 40 chapters, it's the "guilty" one who -- while he does need to humble himself -- is found not guilty by God.
And it is Job's "Intervention Team" God calls out as guilty of sin.

@vo_Hriste the task of the church is to tell the world about Jesus. Jesus is not going to let sin damage his church. Therefore He brings it to light.
Clinical Psychologist for over 3 decades..........lots of Psychopaths in Christian circles. This stinks!
Satan must enjoy these comments of people who feel they can judge the sincerity of someone’s confession & repentance.. “People judge by outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.”
It looks like he is being sincere and repentant...
Either that or sorry I got caught!
Sincerity is there Mike is not obligated to speak to us at all, only investigators. He is facing media, which is predominantly accusing/judgemental. Thank you Mike **
Innocent till proven guilty
Innocent till proven guilty…hmmm. Are you talking about the victims (real ones) or the alleged victim (Bickle)? Sad that in this woke culture,even in the church, so many people just watch crimes being committed publicly and do nothing to protect the victim…usually just finding an angle to justify the perpetrator…why? We are officially at the time where good is called evil and evil is good. Sounds about the way Israel is being portrayed as evil daily as Hamas has been proven to do nothing but extremely vile evil acts against women and children…the real victims,but the woke media calls them good. Time to wrap this up the right way with actual apologies to the real victims AND financial damages, trying to keep it in the church, OR turn it over to the authorities and really drag the Lord’s name in the mud where justice will not be optional like Mike thinks it is apparently, but it will be demanded. This can’t go on any longer. Half of us in this thread have grieved spirits standing with the victims while the other half want to support the party that actually does have a legal obligation to make this right…not to even bring up spiritual. I’m a man, but I know that if I were the one wronged here and it were swept under the rug for so long, I would demand this be made right. Let me move on or lawyer up to do so. I don’t have a dog in this fight. What I DO have is an intense desire for truth to come out and a just conclusion. Ugh! Woke has NO place in the church
Praying for Mike. My husband did something like that and I forgave him. The world wants us to be shunned but by God's grace and mercy and repentance, and trust we made it work. We are human, and I'm sure he repented along time ago
Mike should be the one to speak for himself. Idk who you are
And you should stop stressing over other folk business. It’s ok. Go pray.
@@eseosarainno one is stressing. Are you stressing? 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
This is why I don't believe anyone or anything anymore.
Praying for Redemption Resolution Grace for Mike and Diane Bickle, Eric Volz and Ihopkc leaders, and the Accusers / Allegations makers.
It appears all of this relates to pre Ihopkc existence over 25 years ago.
naah! there is a lot of current shadiness going on. it just hasn’t been exposed yet.
Amen, William. I keep think of the Kavanaugh SCOTUS hearings where that lady came out with ancient allegations she couldn't back up. She had an agenda and tried to "MeToo" a good man. Same thing happening here. What's the agenda of "Jane Doe" tossing an accusation grenade decades later? Who put her up to it? (And drop the anonymity of "Jane Doe"--if Mike's name is out there being smeared, why not hers? )
Dear God, I forgive Mike wholeheartedly (Mk 11: 25), for God you are gracious, compassionate, slow to anger, abounding in love, and good to all (Joel 2: 13), please be merciful (Mt 5: 7), and forgive us our sins and make us righteous (1 Jn 1: 9), for none of us is without sin (1 Jn 1: 10), and we cannot cast any stones (Jn 8: 7), for Christ Jesus came, not to condemn, but to save us (Jn 3: 17), Christ Jesus chose us, we did not choose him (Jn 15: 16), we humble ourselves before you dear God, we cannot sit in judgement, as you dear God are the only Lawgiver and Judge, the one who can save and destroy (Jm 4: 10-12).
Dear God, we thank you and praise you, for your love and your faithfulness which endures forever and ever (Ps 100: 4-5), for you dear God loved us all equally and sent Christ Jesus as an atoning sacrifice for our sins (1 Jn 4: 10).
Mike Buckle's statement made me cry. He knows how to love others with such a gentle heart. May Jesus be the righteous judge. May he be right and all the others liars. May Jesus reveal all that are hidden in His due time. I also trust His leadership!
EPIC ❤ Thank you Mike !
What’s the problem? I thought Christian’s forgive and forget?
Peacemaker Ministries has an excellent track record with difficult church I can see how folks might be hesitant about talking to lawyers. Peacemaker specializes in biblical accountability and reconciliation. Most personal sin seems to have a trauma element. They might be worth chatting with. Praying -
People need to just stop posting until all this is settled. God is and will always be THE ONLY RIGHTEOUS JUDGE. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Luke 5:32
I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”
None of us are perfect it's why We needed a savior, May He not run from Faith but grow deeper, in intimacy..may the Lord use this For His Glory..may He be Glorified, may His beautiful testimony gather many to Christ!
HALLELUYAH 🦁👑🌼 HE IS THE ALMIGHTY...He is Able.
Did you respond to D ? Dee’s nuts
So yall really don’t care about the victims. Just trying to sweep it under the rug so you can continue business as usual
And you should stop stressing over other folk business. It’s ok. Go pray.
BTW: I guarantee you there are young girls and boys suffering in your own community; and need your help. Focus on them. God got this.
@@Jobbi-Diaz wow. Maybe people like you are the reason that the victims are afraid to come forward. You sound incredibly judgmental and sound like you have zero empathy for the victims. This is why women are afraid to come forward and it’s sickening.
Victims of what?
Allegations are all there are.
And even those were crippled early on because some who maintain Mike's innocence were dragged in among the accusers against their will, and had to expressly denounce that. So the character of those bringing the allegations was put in the spotlight in a bad way right outta the gate.
Not saying any specific claim is true or false but the way the claims were brought forward was deeply flawed.
Are these “updates” truly recent, and sequential as dated? Or were they recorded at the same time and then released to appear as current? Same shirt, same microphone placement, but different date, as to give appearance it’s a spontaneous response to Bickle’s statement. Or was this narrative planned when you met in late October. Forget about being “beyond reproach”. This is reprehensible.
The timing of this fallout is suspicious
Satan is crafty. Christians can be
If Jesus came back tonight he would find a bunch of baby Christian’s crying about the color of a man’s shirt.
I can't fathom why people don't want to cooperate with kangaroo courts.
He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.
The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.
He will not always chide: neither will he keep his anger for ever.
He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.
For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him.
As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.
Like as a father pitieth his children, so the LORD pitieth them that fear him.
For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust.
Something is absolutely off about how this matter is approached and handled. Why is an issue involving a believer handled in the press like this? I am worried that these Mike's situation handled almost unscriptural with all these media releases? Is this really the best way to deal with an issue that's supposed to be addressed within the boundaries and the borders of the ministry's platform? Why go public with a church this far? Ministries does undergo all kinds of turmoil but we don't see things done this way. It is so unfortunate that things was taken this too far. It feels like the leadership are forced to play this in the hands of the enemy by opening the matter too wide publicly. Be that as it may, i pray that God see IHOPKC minstry through this difficult season
Man, hopefully God doesn't reveal the skeletons in most of your closets cause we all have them. I honestly don't care about what haopened 20 uears ago, don't believe the accusers now, and think all of the gossip hungry eyes and ears need to back off and probably repent themselves. Unless you yourself are perfect, you better drop your stone now before God puts your faults in the center of attention.
Over 25 years ago MB sinned and repented.
1999 Founded ihopkc and for 25 years
MB spiritually fathered ihopkc and forerunner church
Recently lead 5 million Gentile Christians to pray and fast for Israel
MB turned over to ihopkc leaders the ministry of ihopkc about three years ago
And has not been on staff since.
Am I missing anything ?
What a witch hunt
I admire him for his has humble himself. Jesus is close to the humble. Praying 🙏🏼
Brent, why?
Lorrie, maybe this is none of our business. We have become like the crowd shouting, “crucify him, crucify him!” Maybe we could refocus our focus onto Jesus Christ and pray He will do His will not “OUR” will.
His will is outlined with regard to church discipline and restoration clearly and unambiguously in the Bible. Mike is disqualified by his own statement alone, as is anyone who knew back then or came to know and did nothing. Really is that simple. Repentance requires accountability.
Ralph.. yeah.. but if you read the replies here and on Twitter the crowds seem to want to tear him apart limb by limb. I think they are projecting all the hurts and open wounds from other ppl onto MB. I could take all my bad experiences from the churches I have been in and project them onto MB!! But I took them to Jesus. Not right away but eventually. And I basically had stopped attending churches. In my 20’s a Catholic priest, a Monsignor, said a disgusting sexual phrase to me via the telephone that was way before all the sex scandals in the Catholic Church. And I said nothing to warrant what he said. But that didn’t stop me at the time in attending Catholic churches. Eventually we need to take all our hurts to Jesus and let him heal us.
Stand firm on God's truth IHOPKC. This is Satan's intention, to divide. Earnestly seek God and He will reveal the truth. I stand with you from PA.
A born again believer has nothing to be ashamed of if the serve and have repented. 20 years ago? I am not a fan boy and have no reason to be bias but I will say my spirit tells me he is being set up and never did these things. This is not the catholic church. Listen to Mike's sermon "Loving God with teh Power of the Holy Spirit" and tell me this is not from the Holy Spirit. Men his age are also not interested in sex or chasing after young people. Something is not right. I am going to investigate this because I think it is the faithful and innocent we will see under suck attacks in these evil days. We all were sinners in our past and all forgiven If this happened 20 years ago he is no longer the same man. If he was guilty he has to repent still but not stop serving if God called him to serve.
I don't know much about whats going on but the problem is that he didn't just fall into temptation and make mistakes. Its that he might have used his power and Jesus talk to manipulate girls into the behavior.
So much for innocent until proven guilty...
I am speaking only to the body of Christ. Church please dont focus on what the sin was and because he is a leader. Do Not i repeat Do Not move from your place, keep on praying, seeking God's word guidance. But Do Not move this is a plan of the enemy to destroy the Church and an excuse to leave. Put your eyes on Jesus so you won't fall. The Church must keep on going, its Jesus Church. God will heal the broken pieces in due time because he has the POWER and he is still seated in his thrown. THROWN
Let us create a page where alllllll the Christian’s commenting from alllllll the pop up TH-cam sites would be encouraged to confess all their sins and than have ppl judge us. Who wants to go first? We can ruin each others lives and…rip us all apart but if we are dead to ourselves ppl pointing their fingers at us won’t bother us.
Le Seigneur est plein de miséricorde et Il ne tient pas compte a jamais de nos péchés une fois confessés. Donc, Mike est sanctifié par le sang précieux de Jésus Christ notre Sauveur et Sauveur *(Is.53:5)* . Ce serait absurde d'imputer pour toujours la faute au coupable déjà gracié.
GOD IS IN THE REDEMPTIVE BUSINESS. MAY THE LORD RESTPORE EVERYONE WHO HAS BEEN EFFECTED.
This such a wicked work of the enemy to attempt to throw down powerful house of prayer. When ieviathan comes into everything twisted. But Jesus prevails and he is the truth.
Amen
Praise God for prayers from all over the world of IHOP.
Sin is sin, he and his buddy Lou Engle should repent and pray. They are not qualified to be leaders in the church.
That is so shameful for the real Church of Christ 😫
