11理由拒绝土著人民运动的教义

辛普森的桑迪

在“ 土著人民 ”(以下简称IPM)的或“ 第一民族 ”的运动是unbiblical运动教学的歪理邪说,被传播使命青年协会全球恶魔学说,唐理查森,着有“永恒的心中”,约翰的使命青年协会主席道森,理查德特威斯的Wiconi国际,特里勒布朗,丹尼尔阿罗哈柯呵胯,丹尼的使命青年协会莱曼/各各教堂红毛麦,以及其他许多追随者木河。

这一运动对新使徒彼得改革和C瓦格纳使徒的领导关系。 including John Dawson , Richard Twiss , Terry LeBlanc and Don Richardson.阿的一些发言者宣布他们的“ 甲呼吁所有国家 ”在檀香山开始举行会议还对阿罗哈柯阿跨“顾问委员会 ”,包括约翰道森理查德特威斯 ,特里勒布朗和唐理查森。 你可以在这里获得更多关于这些人的信息。一个最吸引人的地方是,使命青年协会参与了这一议程和世界各地推广会议涉及的主要作用的人。

丹尼尔木河和他的著作“ 在延续义 ”,以及作为第一民族使命青年协会新使徒改造(全国房地产经纪人协会 )的教学奠定了思想基础,提出这个运动等等。木河的书是约翰道森的支持使命青年协会使命青年协会坚决的是由为首的全国房地产经纪人协会的一部分 彼得瓦格纳查皮尔斯辛迪雅各布斯荷兰的英文条例草案哈蒙汤米坦尼迈克比克尔 ,包括数百名其他假使徒 ,假先知,假教师。一个深入的全国房地产经纪人协会的研究如果你想,免费阅读文章在这里或到这里购买图书和/或DVD /录影带一系列的全国房地产经纪人协会。 理查德特威斯和他的部Wiconi是由包括 房地产经纪人协会领导批准 彼得瓦格纳弗朗西斯弗兰吉帕内和查尔斯卡夫。

IPM的是充满了第三次浪潮全国房地产经纪人协会 ,Word中的错误教义,信仰 ,Dominionism, 后期雨和其他许多虚假的神学体系。但它确实有它的是由丹尼尔木河理查德特威斯工程带动自己的distinctives, 约翰道森和唐理查森尤其如此。他们教基督信徒“赎回”的祭祀神灵前的文化,假装他们是耶和华。但当耶稣基督首次提出的,他被评为圣经耶稣基督,儿子介绍岛屿出生的犹太人,在上帝的Triunity。耶稣第二个人大卫,并不像贝利或夏威夷木卫一推出时,塔加的马绍尔群岛,在波纳佩,丘克Wonofaat的帕劳,雅浦,Puntan Yalafath Uchelianged,Nahnsapwe与关岛或其他任何神话或恶魔神Fu'una。要调用这些其他名字的亵渎耶稣是他的名字(腓极宝贵)!目前只有一个名字在拯救天下...这就是名称耶稣基督(使徒行传4:12)。我们要以他的名字崇拜上帝,没有其他的名字。27倍的新约宣布,我们要按照耶稣基督的名神。 (交流2:38,3:6,4:10,4:18,4:30,5:40,8点12,8:16,9:27,9:29,15:26,16:18, 19点05,19:13,19:17,21:13,26:9;哥林多。1:2,1:10,5:4,6:11,弗。5时20分,PHP的。2点10分;上校3:17 2 Thes.1:12,3:6;约翰一书3:23)

我相信这是岛上的时候采取这一到岛上来的东西教会立场。我个人的立场完全对抗这些“原住民”unbiblical思想的涌入,和我这样做是因为我的家人进行44年的部一直是一起在推进福音教会的密克罗尼西亚部长。我们爱岛内民众对于像理查德特威斯丹尼尔木河的人!教他们的东西构成了全部教学点攻击的任务和离岛教会工作。

本文是什么夏威夷像以前一样是宣扬福音的是提醒。这是一个非常重要的目击者。 这是一个不幸的事实,往往由基督徒在世界上任何特定地区的第三代,重要的信息已经开始丢失和被遗忘的。这是显而易见的丹尼尔木河等人的著作。严酷的事实,对在夏威夷的文化和宗教的福音宣扬的夏威夷,是由一个人没有他的夏威夷人民永远不会有机会听到福音的信息,仍然会在他们祖先的罪恶生活的证词明显。

11理由拒绝有害生物综合治理运动

1。 有害生物综合治理领导教导说神已被兑换的文化而他放置在所有文化的方式男性为与神的福音外的关系

“因此这些线索我们都觉得上帝左侧(夏威夷人)和证据他的离开以及过程中他已经离开我们的夏威夷人响应非常自然的方式给上帝真正建立起它们之间的拨乱反正上帝。“(莱昂小,文字,在世界,显示#544)

“有一个情结我们已经在土著社区新世纪和新的神话我们是一个不信神的异教徒的神话。”(特里勒布朗,文字,在世界,显示#542)

“但是所有带来荣耀上帝在其自己特殊的方式,这就是人类的文化也是如此。”(特里勒布朗,文字,在世界,显示#542)

“神现在提出的要求从世界各国的土著社区良好的存款是他在他们提出他们的文化,他们的语言,他们的音乐表现形式和所有的事情...作为一个赞美和敬拜祂亲自表达。 “(特里勒布朗,文字,在世界,显示#542)

几年前,一些朋友,我是考虑我们如何能够达到土著人民和我们以前认为当时流行的一种错觉中,在上帝的存在教会在这里的岛屿。的误解,正如在早些时候表示,是上帝没有到达之前传教士来到。你知道,所以当我们开始研究这项计划我们开始研究我们的文化并为这个特定看到在我们的文化什么上帝原本打算是什么东西一群人,夏威夷。(莱昂小,文字,在世界,显示#544)

在这个新的文章你也将找到的第二个“字世界”,展出主持人丹尼莱曼和IPM客户,丹尼尔木河项目报价。

让我们解决上述两种错误的假设,即:(1)神在文化和赎回业务(2)在文化放在上帝的方式赎回外的福音。

首先,只有“文化”,将可赎回将是上帝的选民,犹太人(诗篇130:8)在大灾难(撒迦利亚13,1)。但这将因为有一定的百分比犹太人(启示录7:3-4;牧师14时03分)将认识到并相信耶稣基督是弥赛亚(约翰福音3:3)。这个例子比其他有圣经无处对上帝的地方举行会谈兑换的文化。牧师7:9的民族,部落,民族和语言的前站在上帝宝座说话,而不是“文化”。这诗说的是谁一直认为他们个人的救主和主耶稣基督的所有个人地球的国家。文化是男人的传统(马可福音7:8-9,13;上校2:8),而不是上帝为IPM的许多人造成的索赔。上帝是从挽救个人业务罪恶(1宠物。1:18-23,镀锌。3:14)没有文化。在赎回或“整个城市转型,社会和文化”的概念实际上是从后者雨和全国房地产经纪人协会Dominionist的想法。这圣经中没有任何依据。每个人必须为自己相信(Act. 16时31罗马书。10:9)后,圣灵(约翰福音16:8-9)的信念。注意,虽然圣灵发送到世界罪定罪,定罪的男子,他是谁不相信耶稣基督,而不是整个文化。

二,没有男人的方法来在耶稣基督相信没有听过福音(以弗所书1:13)。你不能听到没有它宣扬的是你(罗马书10:14-15)的福音。的外邦人并没有知识的福音,直到它的神秘透露给他们的使徒和传教士(以弗所书2:12)方式。

2。 有害生物综合治理领导教导说作为神崇拜文化真的在圣父,圣子和圣灵的神因此重命名

见#5。

木河构成了一篇关于夏威夷声称上帝的鸟类形式夏威夷已经是敬拜神的文化阐述神话“木卫一”传教士抵达之前 (第18页,页。2)。 他声称,玻里尼西亚人被以色列(pg. 62)的后裔,他们可追溯族谱回到诺亚(pg. 72-73),而且他们知道因为它是在星级书面(pg. 55)福音。 (阿诺德Fructenbaum审查木河的公义“延续”,http://www.letusreason.org/current4%20.htm

丹尼莱曼认为,基督教徒可以使用外国假神的名字,如果我们只是重新定义它们的“犹太上帝”。

“...你已经就这个问题对木卫一的枪下在夏威夷的文化,那么这是一个鸟神其显然是一个恶魔等等,你可以不崇拜它。我们并不是说我们必须崇拜鸟神或我们并不是说我们必须崇拜月亮神。 但他说那些人都明白这样的说法他们已经把它作为他们的神也许我们可以使用该名称并教导真相的耶和华上帝的性质 ,而不去一个阿拉伯穆斯林说你必须接受犹太神,所以这是我们的来源。 因此给我们出你的经验说明了这一点。“(丹尼莱曼时,Word世界,Feb.14/06,#7)

如果木卫一是一种错误的魔鬼神鸟类您好,您如何改变,以真实的东西?不会永远对谁是真正的上帝,如果他们的神的概念是一种混合物,搞乱了人们。请记住,上帝讨厌的混合物。者一开始他分隔开黑夜中的明灯(创1:4)。

诗篇75:8 对于耶和华的有一个杯子 ,葡萄酒是红色的手它是充分混合,以及他poureth出相同的:但其渣,所有的地球邪恶他们应拧出来,他们喝。

上帝保佑那些谁在主耶和华的信任,诅咒那些留出谁把假神。

诗篇40:4 有福是男人谁使耶和华的信任,谁不期望骄傲, 谁把这些预留假神。

从一开始,国家在夏威夷一样伪神,他们的假鸟,其中包括许多“至高无上的”神神创作者之间的其他神神殿木卫一。者谁走以色列和他的儿子,耶稣基督上帝, “走在主”之名,而不是其他虚假恶魔神的名字。

米卡4:5 所有的国家可能会走在他们的神的名字,我们将在耶和华我们的神的名字步行永永远远。

任何先知,或就此基督教,谁在其他神名义说话,是旧约中提出的法律。死刑今天我们要谴责虚假的教师和假先知,标志着他们,避免他们。

申命记18:20但是谁先知擅自以本人名义的任何发言我没有命令他说, 谁先知或在其他神名义说话,必须被处死。“

什么是丹尼尔木河,丹尼莱曼和许多其他有害生物综合治理“基督徒”发言呢?他们是“在其他神的名字说”!

There is only One God in Three Persons as revealed to the prophets and apostles, the subsequently to those who believe in Jesus Christ.  In the Old Testament God revealed Himself to the Jews exclusively and there was no salvation apart from the Jews.  In the New Testament God revealed Himself through the apostles, and especially through Paul to the Gentiles.  All the gods of the nations were and are false gods (Deut. 32:17; 1 Cor. 10:20, Jer. 16:19, Amos 2:4).  Even the supreme beings of the nations are not God, as in the case of Amen (Amon) of Egypt (Jer. 46:25), Hadad of the Arameans (1 Kings 20:28) Marduk of Babylon (Dan. 3:16-18) and many other “detestable” gods (Lev. 18:30; Deut. 7:25, 7:26, 12:31, 18:9, 20:18, 27:15, 29:17, 32:16; 1 Kings 11:5, 11:7, 14:24; 2 Kings 16:3, 21:2, 21:11, 23:13, 23:24; 2 Chron. 15:8, 28:3, 33:2, 34:33, 36:14; Ezra 9:1, 9:11; Prov. 21:27, 28:9; Is. 1:13; Jer. 4:1, 7:30, 16:18, 32:35; Eze. 5:9, 5:11, 11:18, 11:21, 12:16, 14:6; Mal. 2:11).  By teaching these ideas the IPM is bringing people who have just come out of unbelief back into slavery to false gods (2 Pet. 2:18-21), and teaching things they ought not to teach (Titus 1:9-14).  As those in Paul's day were spreading Jewish myths, today the IPM is spreading Gentile myths instead of the true Gospel.

3。 IPM Leaders Teach The Spiritual Warfare Techniques of John Dawson, C Peter Wagner And Other Third Wavers To Rid Cities And Nations Of Demonic Influence, Then People Will Just Find Themselves Wanting To Geg Saved

See the following expose of John Dawson's book “Taking Our Cities For God”, a manual for the NAR and IPM.

On Saturday, August 7th, there will be a historic intercessory prayer gathering convened in Bend, Oregon on Mt. Bachelor. It will be a time for people of the Northwest to pray for twelve hours, simply for the Father's heart to be released for the healing of the land and spiritual renewal. I have been asked to lead the first hour of prayer along with a team of First Nations believers from NW tribes. We will have a big drum, some dancers, and tribal elders/leaders who will lead this hour of prayer and worship. As the Holy Spirit leads, we may repent for the sins of our fathers, our unforgiveness, judgment and bitterness, pray for the release of ancient curses and pray a blessing over the land as the Host Nations. Several thousand people are gathering. Please join us in prayer for “the Kingdom to come and His will be done” in the Pacific Northwest as “it is in heaven.” (Smoke Signals – Prayer Need and Reports Richard Twiss, July 20, 2004)

There will be traditional First Nations style drumming and dance as part of the worship time geared toward a prophetic impartation of release and liberty in Christ. Terry & Darlene Wildman (RainSong) from the Hopi Reservation in Arizona, Cheryl Bear-Barnetson and her team, and the Albany Vineyard band will be leading worship. Rita Bear-Gray (Cree Nation) will lead times of prayer and intercession. This will be a time to see the release of the “One New Person” made possible in Christ, between the Host People of the land, and later immigrant people in North America. It will be a radical worship time for all tribes and nations, in the spirit of what John saw in Revelation 7:9, as people from all tribes, tongues and nations gathered around God's throne united in worship to Jesus. (Smoke Signals – Prayer Need and Reports Richard Twiss, June 16, 2004)

这些务实的技术不会解放人。战争运动的精神是错误的理解为基础的马特。 16时19。他们声称,他们可以绑定和宽松的恶魔,不仅在个人而且对整个地区和国家。这是在“背景下,中,下”绝对必要的完美的例子在研究圣经。

马特。 16:17-20耶稣回答说,“祝福你,约纳的儿子,因为这是不泄露给你的男人,但我在天上的父。 我告诉你你是彼得,这块石头上我要建立我的教会 ,和地狱的大门不会克服它。 我会给你的天国的钥匙,无论你在地球上绑定必将在天堂,无论你在地球上宽松否则会在天上自由了。“接着他警告他的弟子们没有告诉任何人他是基督。

当前的情况是建立教会传播福音之一,无关驱除邪魔或铸造了领土的精神。注意,当时还没有来宣称耶稣是基督,但时间会到来的神秘会透露,先是犹太人,然后向外邦人(加拉太书2:7-9)。这也是背景马特。 18时18分必须理解,他们正在解决地方教会的纪律。

马特。 18:15-20如果你对你的兄弟的罪,“去展示他的错,只是与你们两个。 他若听你,你便得了你的弟兄。 但是如果他不听,采取一个或两个人相处,让'每个问题可能是由两个或三个证人的证词成立。' 如果他拒绝听取他们的意见,告诉它的教堂如果他拒绝听甚至教堂,他当作你会一异教徒或收税。 “我跟你说实话,不管你在地球上绑定必将在天堂,不管你在地球上宽松否则会松动的天堂。 “而且,我告诉你如果你们俩在地球上任何事情你要的同意,这将是为你做我的父亲在天堂。为两个或三个进来我的名字在一起,我与他们本人。”

上下文是建立和维护教会,而不是精神上的战争之一,而除非“精神战”我们现在面临的罪恶说话。如果在教会的罪过的人,也不会后悔,那么教会的领导有权力约束或松散的人。这一切都必须与该教会在上帝的手中继续建立所谓他的教会领导。它无关的精神由约翰道森等人提出的战争。

更大的问题是,仔细思想家...为什么这样做unbiblical精神摆脱战争恶魔当你得到人民回到下耶和华名的旧神,崇拜他们的影响的城镇,文化和民族呢?案件涉及两个加起来不正确的,他们作出一团糟!

4。 有害生物综合治理领导教导说,上帝能受崇拜使用曾让所崇拜的神文化的其他方法

理查德特威斯旅行世界各地的教人“舞蹈的祈祷”。

一切就绪了我们的大舞蹈我们的祈祷瑞士旅游。(烟雾信号-需要祈祷理查德特威斯和报告,04年7月20日)

秘鲁-我们的国家舞蹈我们的祈祷秘鲁旅游是空前的! 在二十天我们的18队前往13个城市和森林城镇举行的大型运动场,礼堂,公园,教堂70个联系网,和城市广场。 超过三万人听取了1370年作出承诺的耶稣基督的福音。 我从来没有经历过这样的父亲的青睐和祝福! 但是,在所有费用总计,一些意想不到的法案抵达预期收入没有实现,因此,我们正从旅行到2004年1 $ 5200的债务。 您的礼品将不胜感激。(烟雾信号-酷故事和鼓励从2003年的报告,理查德特威斯,2003年12月16日)

在中地区的政治动荡情况, 我很高兴我的行程与乔纳森Maracle舞在埃及开罗国际音乐节。5月25日我们离开和返回31。 一个特殊的舞台已经接近大金字塔建举办各种团体。 这将是全球电视转播。 我的费用大部分都包括在内。 不过,我仍然需要提高对旅行$ 500.00。 任何礼物将是一个福音。 随着我们在优雅,美丽和我们作为第一民族基督和英国代表的文化特性恩膏,请恩典,保护与和平的祈祷我们的团队。 (烟雾信号-需要祈祷理查德特威斯和报告,2004年4月28日)

我的好朋友,雷奥尔德雷德,Cree公司,要求我说他在他们的会议和战俘舞蹈,哇。雷是第一民族联盟加拿大教会,基督教宣道会在加拿大面额的母语表达的全国总监。 大卫鸟,Cree公司,是里贾纳第一民族联盟教堂的牧师。 他的表弟是Peepeekisis储备行政。 经过多年的被邀请教会会议亲眼目睹到的战俘,哇是第一个基督教的主要活动都同意参加。他感到非常通过所发生的圣灵感动,而所有的非信徒谁出席了会议。 这些人决不会参加“教会”服务而是来到鼓和舞蹈并听取了信心和希望在耶稣基督为上帝和造物主非常明确的信息。 (烟雾信号-酷故事和鼓励从2003年的报告,理查德特威斯,2003年12月16号)

对于读者的信息中,“战俘,哇”的定义是这个韦伯斯特词典的方法:

词源:Narraganset powwaw或Massachuset pauwau 1: 美国的印度医学男子 :美国印第安人仪式(如在战争的胜利)2的B:美洲印第安人联谊或公平竞争的舞蹈通常包括3 1:1的社会联欢会b :讨论会议。

所以我认为,上述“战俘,哇”,就必须为3或可能的定义2所述。注意定义1!。

这对下一个单词的实际意义更清楚的解释是:

词历史: 由于出神了如此重要的母语作为一个在超越了正常人的县精神力量的手段去接触美国的巫师,标题powwaw,字面意思是“谁的梦想之一,”是给予他。一个发生这个词在一个旨在使更多的定居者到新英格兰的宣传早期的作品代表心中有数清教徒态度的新的世界宗教的当地居民说:“办事处和分别为保华dutie要呼吁主要行使呼吁魔鬼,和治疗疾病的sicke或受伤。“在其拼写终于在英国定居译员联谊会也被用来作为仪式和议会的名称可能是由两个巫师发挥的重要作用,单词。 最终新来决定他们可以译员联谊会也第一次提到其中的一个是在马萨诸塞州塞勒姆,1812年宪报记载:“民主部落的勇士将于阿格瓦姆下周二1译员联谊会。”动词盛会,“授予”,录得更早,在1780年。 (美国传统®词典英语语言,第四版,版权所有©由霍顿米夫林公司2000。)

圣经显然,我们不“舞蹈”我们的祈祷,或输入改变国家祈祷。这就是异教徒与他们谁并没有什么上帝,需要做的知识假神。重生的基督徒祈祷他们的头脑(哥林多前书。14:15),而不是在改变美国(1肺心病。14:14)。我们要保持警惕,当我们在灵里祷告(以弗所书6:18)。我们可以举起手中神圣的祈祷,这意味着我们在祈祷(1添崇拜上帝。2:8),但祈祷是一种崇拜方式上帝(使徒13:1-3),感谢他,现在我们的请愿信神(希伯来书12:28,1蒂姆。2:1),专门用于祈祷的警觉和感恩(哥伦比亚4:2),而不是在聚会(罗马书13:13-14)。我们曾经是异教徒,我们现在是神的儿女在耶稣基督,没有给放荡(1宠物。4:3)。有圣经舞蹈没有地方用了祈祷。共舞被用来赞美敬拜神,如在大卫案(2萨姆。6:14) 。与舞蹈,但我们不祈祷。祈祷是一种沟通,天灾使用我们的头脑。

丹尼尔木河也维护以基督教礼拜呼啦使用。

丹尼尔木河:好又是一种文化的因素。 现在我们对谈,臀部旋转的草裙舞,在穆斯林世界有以前那样写歌,有很多国家的嗯,嗯,一个众所周知的穆斯林说当一个女人走魔鬼正在她的臀部和y '知道我已经看到一个女人走如果她要真正性感感性的她只是她走。 这是真的,但是它的草裙舞一样,你可以看到在威基基所做的草裙舞当他们想要感官和性等并且可以。 你还可以看到它被用来崇拜贝利火山神一切意义上的存在上帝那里。因为这是他们的崇拜。 这取决于你的人崇拜它以前那样写歌。 和以前那样写歌的时候,我们都知道在夏威夷现在,我们已经见识过一遍又一遍...我们估计超过200群体呼啦敬拜神现在...他只是在务虚他的人民的赞扬。 上帝是有抹当这些舞蹈所崇拜的神 . And what we need to do since Satan is not a creator, see if we say you can't do this dance because Satan dirtied it, okay, well we can't use the western guitar because its used to worship Satan, and so is the western paino. 并立即向讲述的夏威夷谁爱人民的夏威夷夏威夷人...我们要明白以前那样写歌的行为,它不禁止,当地舞蹈而我们需要做的因为撒旦不是一个创造者,看看我们说你不能这样做舞蹈因为它撒旦弄脏,好,好我们不能用西方的吉他因为它曾经崇拜撒旦,所以是西方帕伊诺。 事实上我们的声音也是如此,人们与我们的声音崇拜撒旦。 那么我们该怎么说现在人们不应该说因为有些人发誓。 你看然后撒旦次抢断的一切,只是给他。 很快我们什么都没有留下。 我们需要采取什么撒旦偷回来并把它上帝创造了这个地方是崇拜他。
丹尼莱曼:我们使用同样的逻辑,没有人会告诉别人如果你用使用你的房子裂缝的房子你会得到你需要保存的房子烧毁了,因为你成为基督徒,不! 你可以说是祈祷夫妇以及在一个用来销售也裂缝我们没有想到它在西方世界内部的事圣经学习。 , we have all these non believing, non Christian cultural taboos. (Word to the World, Daniel Kikawa Feb.9/06, #4) 但是你有草裙舞或者你有一个舞蹈或有烟雾中的房子 ,他们称之为什么土生土长的美国人之间的房子,汗水提出, 他们在那里吸烟管道或东西或什么的 ,我们有所有这些非相信,非基督教文化的禁忌。(文字世界,丹尼尔木河Feb.9/06,#4)

有虚假,diaprax假设,在这个教学数目。

(1)如木河说,他可以感受到“恩膏”当草裙舞舞蹈是贝利一样,区别是什么“时,抹从草裙舞是用来崇拜耶和华一个”?事实是,人们感觉到的想法是“恩膏“,并知道这是神的旨意是主观的,也没有对圣灵活动的证据的。只有一个受膏,那受膏我们分享,如果我们在基督”,“上帝的涂油之一。上帝一个谁给了受膏(哥林多。1:21-22)。只有一个受膏(约翰一书2:20),这是受膏的涂油一(诗篇2:2,行为4:2) ,耶稣基督,王中之王。当一个人重生,他们膏的圣灵(哥林多。1:21-22,弗。1:13),foreknown,命中注定,呼吁合理,美化(光碟。8:29-30)。此外,没有人可以或应该尽量把圣灵给其他人作为受膏是圣灵的人(路加福音4点18分,提多书3:5)。是在受膏留置圣灵,他给我们的各种礼品(1肺心病。12:4),以便我们能够部长在教会宣讲福音到世界各地。上帝是不是在提供免费的按摩,刺激游戏机,欣喜若狂业务经验,他不希望他的人可以玩弄,像或认为自己有一定的更高的一种超自然的启示,要围绕声称有一个“恩膏”或指派“anointings”的,他并没有指定的东西他们。他要求我们在采取行动的有序圣徒教会(哥林多前书。14:33)。 对不起,如果这是现代进攻夏威夷,年龄较大的岛民拒绝为这个原因,它造成男性欲望和是献给他们的前神舞教会草裙舞。为什么如此难以像男子丹尼尔木河明白吗?所有他所要做的就是阅读特派团工作的历史记载都在这里由岛民和西方传教士,理解,他所推行的是对自己文化的侮辱为“基督徒”?

(2) God is a Hawaiian god?  No.  God is God.  He is the great I AM and does not view different people groups or different people with partiality (Duet. 10:17, Acts. 10:34).  Apparently Kikawa and his friends DO view people with partiality.

(3) That Acts does not prohibit dancing is an argument from silence.  The Bible also does not prohibit transexuality either.  Does that make it okay for Christians?

(4) Satan did not steal the hula.  The hula was invented by people to worship Pele and other Hawaiian false satanic gods.  Here is what Titus Coan, one of the early missionaries to Hawaii, and probably the greatest evangelist of his time in the Hawaiian islands, said about the hula in regard to Polynesian cultures, which covers Hawaiian culture as well:

“…the hula or dance. — The actresses undergo long previous training, during which time their persons are sacred to the gods.” (Titus Coan, “Hawaii's Greatest Evangelist, Titus Coan … his life 1835-1882″, Published 1882, pg. 188)

What other types of activities did the Hawaiian gods require?

“On the coast of Kawaihar I have seen and measured the last great heiau, of heathen temple , of the renowned Kamehameha I., where human sacrifices were offered to the gods that can not save or destroy.  I have also visited other heathen temples in Kona, Puna, Hilo, on Molokai and in other places.” (Titus Coan, “Hawaii's Greatest Evangelist, Titus Coan … his life 1835-1882″, Published 1882, pg. 225)

The hula is a dance dedicated to false gods.  The movements of the lower parts of the female body in this dance are very suggestive to island people and do not help them escape from sin, but rather give the enemy a foothold.  The fact the Kikawa can feel an anointing from hula, for whatever reason it is performed, should give you a clue as to how the hula effects island peoples.  You cannot fully sanitize something that has been offered to false gods.

Let me try to be helpful by suggesting what COULD be done with the hula. (1) Take out the religious references to the false gods of Hawaii like Io and Pele.  (2) Take out the suggestive movements the tourists and island males love so well.  (3) rename is something else.  Then it may be useful as a way to tell the story of the Gospel.

(5) Lehmann makes, yet another in a long line of, bad analogies by trying to equate the issue of using the hula with the use of a house.  Of course Christians can use houses formerly used for drugs or pot smoking (in the case of the Indians).  But they do not continue to do drugs and smoke pot anymore!  That's the point Lehmann misses.  Hula is not a house.  Hula is a dance dedicated for centuries to false gods.  To take that dance and make it a large part of the Hawaiian Christian experience is to deny the dreadful and shameful use of hula in the past.  Why not uplift other cultural activities not tied to worship of the demonic.  Isn't the idea to make a clean break from our past when we accept Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord?

Phil. 3:7-9 But whatever was to my profit I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ— the righteousness that comes from God and is by faith.

If Paul considered the Jewish culture and its activities “dung” in view of the cause of Christ, how much more should we as Gentiles consider our cultures double “dung”?  The fact is that what Kikawa and Lehmann are promoting is the direct 180 degree opposite of what Paul believed, lived and taught with regard to culture.

5。 Richard Twiss Says Indian/First Nations Peoples Worship The Great Spirit Who Is Really The Holy Spirit

Richard Twiss, president of Wiconi International and keynote speaker at the 2001 conference, said the land restitution is “the fruit of following traditional indigenous protocol in presenting the redemptive message of faith and hope in Jesus Christ as Healer, Great Spirit and Chief Shepherd of all tribes and nations.” (Richard Twiss, Charisma Magazine, October 2004, http://www.charismamag.com/a.php?ArticleID=9744)

Richard Twiss was on the 700 Club show with Gordon Robertson (Pat Robertson's son) and in an interview he told Gordon that the Great Spirit of the Indians is the same as the Holy Spirit. Robertson heartily agreed. The problem with this idea is that the Great Spirit has no son, and without the son there is no redemption. The Great Spirit required human sacrifices and other atrocities. (http://www.deceptioninthechurch.com/lehmann2.html)

特威斯和他的朋友们的教学综合治理这些相同的想法。

Eagles Wings is the ministry of pastor and author Randy Woodley and his wife Edith. Both Native Americans, their mission is “to present the Great Spirit's Son, Jesus Christ and His Words, the Bible to Native Americans in culturally relevant ways.” (Link from Wiconi site)

Twiss is touted for having “worked with International Bible Society [and] Promise Keepers…[and] is a consultant on racial reconciliation for Promise Keepers.” It is also stated that “Promise Keepers asked Christian Native American men to host the 'Standing In The Gap' gathering in Washington [DC] on October 4.” Those who watched the event noted participation by a Native American in full headdress (an Indian war bonnet). Wearing the eagle feathers has a pagan and anti-Christian religious (not just cultural) meaning . Joseph Epes Brown, biographer of Sioux medicine man Black Elk, explains: The Indian actually identifies himself with, or becomes, the quality or principle of the being or thing which comes to him in a vision, whether it be a beast, bird, one of the elements, or really any aspect of creation. In order that this “power” may never leave him, he always carries with him some material form representing the animal or object from which he has received his “power”…. In wearing the eagle-feathered “war bonnet,” the wearer actually becomes the eagle, which is to say that he identifies himself, his real Self, with WakanTanka[the Great spirit which Wanbli Galeshka (the Spotted Eagle) represents]. (Joseph Epes Brown, The Sacred Pipe. Black Elk's Account of the Seven Rites of the Oglala Sioux (University ofOklahoma Press, 1989), 7,45). (Native American Gospel? Q&A – Berean Call – January, 1998, http://a-voice.org/discern/native.htm

Wiconi endorses Eagles Wings who claims the Great Spirit's son is Jesus Christ.

Yet the historical facts are that the Great Spirit is panentheistic!

Religious beliefs varied between tribes, but there was a widespread belief in a Great Spirit who created the earth, and who pervaded everything. This was a panentheist rather than a pantheist belief. But the pantheistic tone was far stronger than among Christians, and more akin to the pantheism of William Wordsworth. It was linked to an animism which saw kindred spirits in all animals and plants. ( http://members.aol.com/pantheism0/indians.htm )

The Lakota concept of Wakan Tanka (most frequently translated as Great Spirit) illustrates panentheism well: Wakan Tanka is the Spirit over, under, and throughout all of the physical world, its guiding principle, present in individual phenomena yet not confined to it, not strictly singular nor plural, neither truly personal nor impersonal. Manitou/manitos of the Algonkians is a similar concept. http://www.stormwind.com/common/nadoc.html

Note: Richard Twiss is a Lakota Indian!

伟大的精神需要的人力牺牲/自杀来解除他已患病。

“I am a very old man, my friends.  I have lived through many summers and through many snows.   Now I will tell you why I have lived so long.  My father, who was also a great Medicine Man, told me that when I became old, the Great Spirit would send a sickness upon our people. All would die, unless a sacrifice was made to the Great Spirit. An innocent maiden of the tribe, the daughter of a chief, must willingly go to the high cliffs above the Big River and throw herself upon the rocks below.  If she does this, the sickness will end.”

Not a word was spoken until the old man slowly sat down.  At last, the chief lifted his head and said, “Call all of the young maidens, who are daughters of chiefs.”  Soon all of the young maidens stood before the chief, including his own daughter.  The chief told them all that the old man had said.  “I think his words are the words of truth,” he added.  He then turned to his elders and said, “Tell our people to meet death bravely.  No maiden will be asked to sacrifice herself.   This meeting has ended.”

The next day Morning Sun saw the sickness on the face of her lover.  Now she knew what she had to do.  Without telling anyone, she followed the trail to the high cliffs above the Big River. When she arrived there above the jagged rocks, she turned her eyes upward, lifted up her arms and spoke to the Great Spirit, “If you will accept me as a sacrifice for my people, let some token hang in the sky.”  Just then, the moon rose above the trees across the river.  It was the token.  She closed her eyes and jumped.  Soon afterwards, the sickness left her people.

As I have set down, they worshiped Toya, or the sun, which they claimed represented the Great Spirit. Every morning as the sun rose they would stretch out their hands in adoration and chant a hymn of praise; and also when the sun was at its highest gave they gave this salutation; as evening drew on most of the tribe would gather near the sacrificial mound. Just as the sun was about to set, their jauva would slay an animal and place its beating heart upon the altar and all would chant a prayer beseeching that Toya would return to give his light. When the sacrifice was a human heart only the warriors drew near unto the altar. After our companions had been sacrificed they brought in no more captives of our race, but did sacrifice warriors captured from other tribes. (CHASCO HISTORY  Written by then, postmaster Gerben M. DeVries in 1922 the pagent script, has been changed throughout the years – but still remains belittling and offensive., This translation from the original manuscript is dedicated to the Avery Library and Historical Society of New Port Richey, and published for the information of those who dwell in the West Coast section of Florida., By Gerben M. DeVries, New Port Richey, Fla. March.1922, http://members.aol.com/_ht_a/aimfl/script.html

But among some tribes north of the Rio Grande, human sacrifices did exist. Evidence exists that the Pawnee (in what is now Nebraska) occasionally sacrificed someone. The Iroquois are said to have occasionally sent a maiden and white dog to the Great Spirit. And human sacrifice and cannibalism are believed to have existed among people along the coast between Louisiana, Florida and up the coast to Virginia, where people experienced the wrath of the gods more frequently in the form of extremely violent storms than did people in other parts of the country.

The Great Spirit required blood rituals.

The Sun Dance – Each year, the summer sees another type of blood sacrifice; the Lakota Sioux and other natives of this continent spill their blood onto the earth in one of their most powerful rituals, the Sun Dance. In this controversial ritual, the participants pierce holes into the skin on their chests, thread large hooks made of antler or wood through the holes and hang themselves from a sacred tree until either they rip the skin through and fall or until they pass out. Through offering their own blood, they are able to achieve an ecstatic state, making a connection with the Great Spirit and giving back to the earth something that is truly of their body. This ritual was outlawed but still survives today as an Indian-only event, within the larger Sun Dance festival attended by thousands.

理查德特威斯是拉科塔/苏印

In summary: Richard Twiss is spreading the doctrines of the NAR and is endorsed by them.  He claims that the Great Spirit of the Indians is the Holy Spirit of the Bible, and endorses ministries who make this same claim.  He endorses and promoted books by people like Daniel Kikawa that present information as fact when it is proven myth.  He continues to teach that the Great Spirit is the Holy Spirit by wearing the cultural items associated with the Great Spirit, even though it is a historical fact that the Great Spirit is a pantheistic god that required blood rituals and human sacrifice.  Richard Twiss claims that what he is doing is not syncretism, when it is the very definition of syncretism.

The Bible is clear that ALL Gentiles did not know God.  Again, ALL the gods of the nations were and are false gods (Deut. 32:17; 1 Cor. 10:20, Jer. 16:19, Amos 2:4).  Even the supreme beings of the nations are not YHWH, as in the case of Amen (Amon) of Egypt (Jer. 46:25), Hadad of the Arameans (1 Kings 20:28) Marduk of the Babylonians (Dan. 3:16-18) and many other “detestable” gods (Lev. 18:30; Deut. 7:25, 7:26, 12:31, 18:9, 20:18, 27:15, 29:17, 32:16; 1 Kings 11:5, 11:7, 14:24; 2 Kings 16:3, 21:2, 21:11, 23:13, 23:24; 2 Chron. 15:8, 28:3, 33:2, 34:33, 36:14; Ezra 9:1, 9:11; Prov. 21:27, 28:9; Is. 1:13; Jer. 4:1, 7:30, 16:18, 32:35; Eze. 5:9, 5:11, 11:18, 11:21, 12:16, 14:6; Mal. 2:11).  Also, again, there is no way for men to come to believe in Jesus Christ without having heard the Gospel (Eph. 1:13).  You cannot hear the Gospel without it being preached to you (Rom. 10:14-15).  The Gentiles had no knowledge of the Gospel message until that mystery was revealed to them by way of the apostles and missionaries (Eph. 2:12).  What Twiss, Kikawa and others are doing is to teach Two-Thirds World Christians to make up fables about their former religious practices not based on facts but based on myths.

2 Tim. 4:3-4  For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.

1 Tim. 1:3-4  As I urged you when I went into Macedonia, stay there in Ephesus so that you may command certain men not to teach false doctrines any longer nor to devote themselves to myths and endless genealogies. These promote controversies rather than God's work— which is by faith.

God's work among the Gentiles is a work of faith in Jesus Christ, not faith in their former gods who they are not renaming to try to sycretize their heathen, pagan beliefs with Christianity.

6。 Richard Twiss Teaches That The Gospel Was A Source Of Division And Stumbling For First Nation's Peoples And This Is Blamed On Western Missionaries

One major wound in the land that negatively impacts the “character” of the American church lies in the fact that the message of Jesus has been so inextricably identified as “Euro-American.” Because of this fact, the gospel message has been the cause of great shame, oppression, and in many cases, genocide among the Host People of the land. Because of past atrocities, regions have been condemned by the spilt blood upon the land that continues to cry out for justice; the Pacific Northwest being no exception. (Smoke Signals – Prayer Need and Reports Richard Twiss, June 16, 2004)

“Indigenous peoples have perpetually been put in the position of the mission field never fully recognized as been given gifts and callings and anointings to be coequal partners …” (Richard Twiss, Word To The World, show #541)

Next week my son Daniel is joining me on a trip to New York (his 16th birthday) where I am the keynote speaker at the “Healing the Land” Conference hosted by Pastor Peter Bruno of Metro Church. Pastor Bruno writes, “I really felt on my heart to reach out to pastors & intercessors from our region to invite them personally to this important conference. The problem with our land is that throughout the history of Christianity, the message of Jesus has been delivered (at times) with deadly force & hatred instead of in love and mercy. Because of past atrocities, regions have been condemned by the spilt blood upon the land that continues to cry out for justice. For our NYC/NJ region to come into it's fulfillment of God's vision, we must cleanse the past and partner into the future. I believe that God is calling His church to build bridges to see Native people come to faith & life in Jesus Christ and fulfill their God-given place within the Body of Christ. This conference will help bring these truths to light as well as help us to befriend, partner with and build bridges to our Native brothers & sisters. (Smoke Signals – Prayer Need and Reports Richard Twiss, May 7, 2004)

Aldred [Cree Nation] is the Director of the First Nations Alliance of Churches, and was the first Native American person to address an Urbana convention in its 57-year history. … Aldred applied this culture-challenging aspect of the gospel in a powerful challenge to the western Church: “Western Christianity is syncretistic…It is a religion motivated about sharing the gospel story with people, not so they become who God has made them to be, but to make them like me so I can love them.” Aldred said that much of the western missionary effort has been characterized by an attempt to assimilate people into its own mold, which is why the western church has so many fights over music and forms of worship. It has reduced the gospel to a technical presentation of facts separated off from the real life of the witness and the mysterious power of God. Western Christianity has separated the public and private realms, and banished Jesus' relevance to the personal and private world of piety, ignoring social and relational aspects of God's Kingdom. In actual practice it trusts more in its own wealth, knowledge, and power than in God's holy word. It is intellectualized rather than holistic and integrated in the whole human person. Aldred boldly announced these ways that the gospel of Jesus continues to call the western church to radical conversion from the culture of modernity to the Kingdom of God. (GOD MOVED IN POWER! Urbana Report #1, Richard Twiss, Jan 9, 2004)

This is how you confuse the issue.  You turn the issue of syncretism around and blame it on the missionaries.  It is true that some misguided missionaries, though clearly not the majority, tried to change indigenous cultural values to Western ones.  But he ignores the many missionaries who, in presenting the Gospel and sound doctrine, necessarily preached things that were in opposition to demonic cultures and practices like those of the Indians.  The missionaries were faced with heathen cultures, not unlike their own, and attempted to apply biblical principles, in cooperation with those in First Nations, to come up with a way of living in accordance to the Word of God (which is what ALL CHRISTIANS must abide by!).  Mistakes were made, but if you talked to the first generation of converts (like I had the privilege of doing long ago in Micronesia) you would understand fully what First Nation's cultures were like at the time.  Sexual perversion, women and child abuse, murder, human sacrifice, ruling elite who lorded it over everyone else, worship of demons, and other atrocities were commonplace.  Read A New Culture by Juanita Simpson.  Those who heard the Gospel preached to them and recognized the freedom in Christ offered were saved and delivered from the things in their cultures that were evil and immediately wanted to make a statement about the difference God had made in their lives.  Can we then blame them, in retrospect, for putting on clothes, stopping cultural activities that were tied to the demonic, and no longer being involved in sexual immorality, abuse, perversion, murder and the occult?  People like Kikawa and others are trying to rewrite history when they clearly have not done their research.  They have little understanding of what their formerly (and in fact currently) pagan cultures were like before the missionaries came and sacrificed their lives, in many cases, to bring the Good News.  They were not sent to bring culture nor was that their purpose. They were primarily bringing God's culture, the Bible, and applying its time-tested truths, together with First Nations peoples, so that they might be light and salt to the nations.  That historical mission work is now being demonized by these people in order to make way for the unbiblical ideas of the “First Nations” movement is a clear indication that its whole premise is “out to lunch”.  The IPM is using diaprax methodology in order to bring in this new paradigm of unbiblical and even demonic thought.  IPM teachers are the ones bringing division because they are laying error alongside truth, teaching heresy.  The Bible is clear about heretics:

Jude 1:19 These are the men who divide you, who follow mere natural instincts and do not have the Spirit .

It is not a coincidence that the message of the IPM is targeted at Christians especially.  Our mandate as Christians, with regard to these divisive malcontents is this:

Titus 3:10 Warn a divisive person once, and then warn him a second time. After that, have nothing to do with him.

7。 Richard Twiss Teaches That The Bible Is No Longer Our Sole Source of Truth, Nor Should We Be Tied Down By Doctrines Taught In The Bible

We are constantly growing, maturing and consequently changing in our perceptions and conclusions. How do we avoid getting stuck in our conclusions? Or harder yet, when we've grown so accustomed to the perceived “normalcy” or “correctness” of our beliefs, how do we get unstuck when we realize what we believed is no longer as true and right as we once believed? How can we change without “losing face?” We must create paths to change for one another that are highlighted by honor, respect and the love of Christ. (Smoke Signals “Views From the Hill” – New E-mail commentaries Richard Twiss, Apr 5, 2004)

The Bible is the ULTIMATE source of truth for the believer.

Romans 15:4  For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.

2 Timothy 3:15-17  and how from infancy you have known the holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.

Those who add or take away from Scripture, either through written or extra-biblical means, are denounced and judged by the Word itself:

Deut. 4:2 Do not add to what I command you and do not subtract from it, but keep the commands of the LORD your God that I give you.

Rev. 22:18-19  I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book. And if anyone takes words away from this book of prophecy, God will take away from him his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book.

1 Cor. 4:6 Now, brothers, I have applied these things to myself and Apollos for your benefit, so that you may learn from us the meaning of the saying, “Do not go beyond what is written.” Then you will not take pride in one man over against another.

8。 Daniel Kikawa States That The Gospel Needs To Be Presented To “Shame based” Societies In Terms Of “Jesus Christ Came To Take Away Your Shame.”

“They think they don't need Jesus because he is a God for, if you are a criminal. The other thing is that if you tell someone they need Jesus they can get very angry, because its implying to them that you think they are a criminal … that would be very offensive to them in this shame based society. … So how do we present the gospel in that way. Maybe we can use the word shame in a shame based society. In other words Jesus came to take away all our shame” (Word to the World, Danny Lehmann interview with Daniel Kikawa Feb. 6/06, #1)

Granted … the issue of “shame-based” rather than “guilt-based” societies is a real missiological issue that must be dealt with in order to preach the Gospel effectively.  But Kikawa forgets that Middle Eastern societies are also shame-based, and it was to those societies the Gospel was first presented!  Shame is not guilt of sin or repentance.  Shame is basically an exercise in self-indulgence and self-pity.  When a person is caught at something in a shamed-based society, they lose face.  They generally do not repent nor do they stop doing what they were doing, they are simply embarrassed at the public humiliation of being caught.  The recognition of sin, on the other hand, is the starting point toward repentance. The way to present the Gospel in a shame-based culture is not to take the word “sin” out of the picture but to ask these questions:

(1) If a person steals something and no one sees him, is it a sin?
(2) If he gets caught then how does he feel?
(3) Did you know that when a person steals something, and no one sees them, that God sees them?
(4) Did you know that God says stealing is a sin?
(5) Now that you know that God is watching and that stealing is a sin, if you steal something will you feel ashamed?
(6) Will being ashamed not end there, but result in your realization that stealing is always a sin and that you need to stop stealing?
(5) God is the judge and He was already declared us all guilty of sin.  Therefore if you steal and you remember that God is watching you, then you have come to realize that you are ashamed because of your guilt, your sinful nature before a holy God, not because you were caught.  God has provided you a way to defeat sin through confessing your sin, believing in the Lord Jesus Christ to save you, and then to live a life where you put off the old man of sin and put on the new man in Christ through the Holy Spirit daily.

The point of the above example is that it is possible to bring people from a “shame-based” paradigm to a biblical paradigm, which is the continuing work of the Holy Spirit in anyone who believes.  The Holy Spirit sharpens our conscience and convicts us of sin, at first while we are doing it, then eventually before we do it.  This is the biblical process, which Jesus Christ, a Jew, introduced to the Jewish culture, which is a shame-based culture.  As Christians we are to present the Gospel in the terms that it was presented by Jesus Christ and the apostles.

Rom. 10:9-11  That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved . As the Scripture says, “Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame.”
1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.

The problem of the human condition is one of sin, not shame.  Sin is defiance against the holiness of God.  Shame may be the result of our realization we have sinned (or may not) but rarely leads to repentance (turning from sin).  Therefore in preaching the Gospel to nations and cultures that have not known the character of God, it is important for them to understand that God is holy, we are cut off by virtue of inherited and willful sin, and that there is no way to salvation without confessing our sins and believing on the Lord Jesus Christ.  If calling sin what it is causes people to lose face and is an affront to people, then the Gospel has been presented CORRECTLY because the true Gospel message is an affront (1 Cor. 1:23, Gal. 5:11).

If Daniel Kikawa and others are no longer willing to talk about sin, they are no longer preaching the Gospel.

9。 Danny Lehmann and the IPM's umnbiblical usage of the example of Paul at the Areopagus in Acts 17

Now yesterday Daniel, we closed our broadcast by taking about the issue of Japan and how people have a hard time having the gospel being communicated to them because it sounds foreign… that's the big problem- whether its India or Thailand Africa or latin America. If the God appears to be a foreign God it would be equivalent to us in America which is a normally Christian based society accepting Buddhism, because it sounds foreign to us. And in the bible when Paul was preaching in Acts 17 it tells us that when he was talking about Jesus and the resurrection, they said “well he's talking about a foreign God” and he went on to bridge the gap there in a magnificent way there at Mars hill. (Word to the World, Danny Lehmann, Feb. 7/06, #2)

Paul did preach the Gospel in terms that the Greeks could understand.  He used the illustration of the “unknown god” which they were worshipping, with some sarcasm as scholars note, to point out that they did NOT know the true God at all, not to bridge a “gap” between them and their worship of an “unknown god”.

Acts 17:23  For as I walked around and looked carefully at your objects of worship, I even found an altar with this inscription: TO AN UNKNOWN GOD. Now what you worship as something unknown I am going to proclaim to you.

Barnes New Testament Notes states that an altar had been erected in Athens during a time of pestilence some 600 years before Christ because all the other “known” and named gods could not deliver them.  Paul came and used this altar to illustrate that they did NOT know God at all saying “Him I declare to you” in other words, “I make known to you his name, attributes, etc … In other circumstances it might seem to be presumptuous for an unknown Jew to attempt to instruct the sages of Athens. But here they had confessed and proclaimed their ignorance. By rearing this altar they acknowledged their need of instruction. The way was, therefore, fairly open for Paul to address even these philosophers, and to discourse to them on a point on which they acknowledged their ignorance”.

An “unknown god” means they were worshipping something unknown, not known.

John Gill Expositor states: God is an unknown God to those who have only the light of nature to guide them; for though it may be known by it that there is a God, and that there is but one, and somewhat of him may be discerned thereby; yet the nature of his essence, and the perfections of his nature, and the unity of his being, are very little, and not truly and commonly understood, and the persons in the Godhead not at all, and still less God in Christ, whom to know is life eternal: hence the Gentiles are described as such who know not God;

Another problem with Lehmann's analysis of this passage, out of context, is that most of the Greeks rejected the true God Paul was preaching because they did not believe in a resurrection.

Acts 17:32-18:1 When they heard about the resurrection of the dead, some of them sneered, but others said, “We want to hear you again on this subject.” At that, Paul left the Council. A few men became followers of Paul and believed. Among them was Dionysius, a member of the Areopagus, also a woman named Damaris, and a number of others. After this, Paul left Athens and went to Corinth.

So if Paul was bridging a gap between the Jewish God and Zeus he was doing a very poor job!  As far was we know Paul was never invited back to the Areopagus to speak, so this invitation was really an empty one, designed to get him to shut up and leave.  Only a few believed in Jesus Christ.  Paul was not there to bridge a “gap” between an unknown foreign “supreme being” like Zeus and YHWH.  He was there to tell them that they had been worshipping an unknown god among many other false gods and to use that as an illustration that they were in error and to preach the Gospel about Jesus Christ.  This example of Paul, the only one in Scripture, does not justify telling people around the world that they have already been worshipping the true God and just have to add Jesus Christ into the mix.  Paul was clear about the Gospel he preached:

1 Corinthians 2:2 For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.

Apparently, according to people like Kikawa and Lehmann, we now need to be experts in foreign gods to present the Gospel effectively, bridging the gap between false gods and the One True God.  Paul resolved to be an expert in the Gospel!

“and isn't it interesting that he used the Greek word for God “theos” and he says I'm going to declare to you about that God.” (Word to the World, Danny Lehmann, Feb. 7/06, #2)

“Theos” is a general word for “god” as is the word “god” in our language.  This in no way shows that Paul was talking to them about YHWH.  Paul simply said unknown “god” (theos) then proceeded to tell them who YHWH is, the Triune God they knew nothing about and were not prepared to believe in.

10。 Daniel Kikawa taught that if we reject a culture worshiping a pantheon of Gods, we would have to reject Judaism as well

And if we look at a society like that we say throw it all out, this all evil y'know, this is a pantheon of Gods and so on, and if we did that with the Jewish culture we would throw out Jehovah or Yahweh with all of that , see. (Word to the World interview with Daniel Kikawa Feb.10/6, #5)

First of all, no one has “thrown out” any cultures, including ALL missionaries past, present and future.  Missionaries gave their lives, both figuratively and literally, to bring in the harvest from all cultures. This is diaprax, exaggeration and misinformation to make a point.

Second, God Himself rejected cultures with a pantheon of gods (Deut. 6:4).

1 Chronicles 16:26  For all the gods of the nations are idols , but the LORD made the heavens.

Third, though Israel prostituted itself with the false gods of the surrounding nations, God made a covenant with Israel alone and if they repented and returned to Him, they were forgiven.  He did not make a covenant of this kind with ANY other nation, though in the Old Testament if a Gentile agreed to forsake his false gods and become a Jew He could be saved.

Jeremiah 2:28  Where then are the gods you made for yourselves? Let them come if they can save you when you are in trouble! For you have as many gods as you have towns, O Judah.

Ezekiel 14:6  “Therefore say to the house of Israel, 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Repent! Turn from your idols and renounce all your detestable practices!

Isaiah 59:20 “The Redeemer will come to Zion, to those in Jacob who repent of their sins,” declares the LORD.

Isaiah 49:8  This is what the LORD says: “In the time of my favor I will answer you, and in the day of salvation I will help you; I will keep you and will make you to be a covenant for the people, to restore the land and to reassign its desolate inheritances,

Zechariah 10:6  “I will strengthen the house of Judah and save the house of Joseph. I will restore them because I have compassion on them. They will be as though I had not rejected them, for I am the LORD their God and I will answer them

Let's never forget that the Jews were God's chosen covenant people, unlike the other Gentile nations including Hawaiians.  God does not reject Israel, nor should we.  What Christians do reject is the worship of false gods by the millions who are clearly NOT Jehovah, whether they are labeled as “supreme beings” or lesser gods.  We reject those other gods because we serve the only true God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, YHWH, the “I AM”.

Deuteronomy 29:13  to confirm you this day as his people, that he may be your God as he promised you and as he swore to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

Acts 3:13a The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his servant Jesus.

1 Thessalonians 1:9  for they themselves report what kind of reception you gave us. They tell how you turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God,

1 John 5:20 We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true. And we are in him who is true— even in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.

It can only be concluded that IPM teachers do NOT know “Him who is true” because they put heathen cultures on a par with God's chosen people, Israel, and in the same breath vilify Israel by saying they are not better than any other nation.  Kikawa forgets that it was often forbidden syncretism with the heathen godless cultures surrounding Israel that caused Israel to sin.  Without Israel Gentiles would know nothing of the “true God” and we would also be without a Savior, the son of David, Jesus Christ, a Jew.  I don't see Hawaiian culture contributing to the knowledge of God, or producing a Savior.  What Hawaiian culture produced was human sacrifice, incest, degradation of women, superstitions, and barbarities beyond description, and they are not alone.  ALL cultures did the same!  Yes, there were neutral things in Hawaiian and Polynesian cultures, just like there are neutral things in many cultures (I don't call them “good” because only God is good!)  But those neutral aspects do not save, nor do they illuminate the truth of the true God, Jesus Christ, how to be saved, or the Gospel.  Hawaiians were floundering in Godless sin and degradation till the missionaries, spurred on by the accounts of islanders like Heneri Opukaha'ia , came and sacrificed their lives to bring the Good News of freedom and the mystery of Christ to the islands, and Hawaiian Christians, in turn, accompanied Western missionaries to spread the Gospel to the islands of Micronesia.  The Hawaiians are not exempt from what the Bible says about Gentiles, just like the cultures from which missionaries came are not exempt.  They ALL apply EQUALLY.  All Gentile cultures were without God and without hope in the world (Eph. 2:12).  Attempting to rewrite history to justify the Hawaiians, as Kikawa is trying to do, “does nothing more than lead people to pride and unrepentance”. These are not my words, they are the words of an island pastor who has become aware of what Kikawa and friends are teaching!

Shame on Kikawa and his friends for the way they degrade Israel and those with beautiful feet who came to share the Gospel of hope with heathen Gentiles (see #6)!

11。 IPM leaders pull Romans 1 from it's context and misuse it

He was born in the center of civilization of that day. y'know the nexus of Europe and Asia and Africa, the civilization of that day and what did Jesus say is tell everybody that I came. y'know,Not that you don't know God or that you don't have no relationship with him and he's a foreign God to you. But that, that the son of your creator came who made himself known to as rom.1:20 says and so this is what we bring to them and we find that if there are people who are really seeking God, there are people like Jobs everywhere who know. (Word to the World, Daniel Kikawa, Feb.14/06, #7)

IPM leaders are constantly quoting Romans 1:20 out of context.  They love to emphasize what is not the point of the passage. They always quote this verse, or parts of it:

Romans 1:20 For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities— his eternal power and divine nature— have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made , so that men are without excuse.

Of course the creation is obvious for men who want to look at it and understand it, thus understanding there has to be a Creator.  Sure … when men think about their nature they see the eternal Godhead, the Three in One, reflected in the created human nature of body, soul and spirit.  But that's about all they know.  They know NOTHING of the Son, therefore they know NOTHING of salvation.  What they don't quote is what follows because it destroys their argument that all nations, cultures and peoples are already worshipping the true God.

Romans 1:21-25  For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles. Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator — who is forever praised. 阿民。

The fact is that ALL Gentiles (1) did not glorify God (2) did not give thanks to God (3) were foolish (4) were futile in their thinking, their beliefs (5) exchanged the glory of God for images (6) were given over to sin (7) and exchanged the truth of God for a lie, worshipping created things instead of the Creator.  This covers EVERYONE since Adam until God revealed Himself to Israel through the patriarchs, Moses and the prophets.  This started at the fall.  Adam and Eve “exchanged the truth of God for a lie” and it has been getting worse ever since.

The point of this passage also comes to light when you read what precedes it.

Romans 1:16-19 I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. For in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.” The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness , since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them.

God made it plain to men that He was the Creator and had all power.  But men, from the beginning, rejected God.  The wrath of God is then coming on men who do not believe.  What must they believe?  The Gospel!  The only way to be righteous before God is to believe in the Gospel message about Jesus Christ.  There is no other way to be reconciled with God but through His Son and His Son must be revealed by those who preach the Gospel, starting with Paul to the Gentiles.  The power of salvation does not lie in the old gods renamed.  It lies in the Son of God, Jesus Christ, revealed!

结论

The Bible is clear.  There are only two major distinctions among the nations–Jews and Gentiles.  Gentiles did not have salvation, they were not worshipping God, nor did they have hope before they heard the message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, no matter what Daniel Kikawa and his friends claim.

弗。 2:11-13 Therefore, remember that formerly you who are Gentiles by birth and called “uncircumcised” by those who call themselves “the circumcision” (that done in the body by the hands of men)—remember that at that time you were separate from Christ, excluded from citizenship in Israel and foreigners to the covenants of the promise, without hope and without God in the world. But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.

There is no way to hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ, to know the mystery of the reconciliation available through the cross, without it being preached.

Rom. 10:14-15  How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”

As I have pointed out before in my rebuttal to the false teachings presented at the World Gathering of Indigenous Peoples conferences, missionaries and mission work are soundly rebuked by their teachers instead of being treated as those with “beautiful feet”.  These facts from the Bible, including hundreds of other verses about Gentiles, completely DEMOLISH Daniel Kikawa's book, and the entire platform of people like Richard Twiss, John Dawson, Don Richardson, Charles Kraft, Terry LeBlanc and hundreds of others who have moved beyond the Scriptures into mythology.

2蒂姆。 4:3-4  For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. 相反,以适应自己的愿望,他们将聚集周围的许多教师说什么他们的耳朵发痒想听到的。 They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.

When you mythologize religion and ignore the clear teachings of the Bible, as above, in order to make people feel better about themselves and their cultures, you are effectively preaching another gospel.  If what Richard Twiss, Daniel Kiwawa, Danny Lehmann and a host of others teach is true, then there was no need for Jesus Christ to die on the cross for sin. According to them all cultures, and even religions, already had ways to redemption built in by God Himself.  But they forget that without Christ every man will be judged by their works, and therefore they cannot be saved.

2 Thes. 1:8-9  He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the majesty of his power
