Explain why you refuse to see the truth? You are deceived and deceiving others.

Yet another important area of deception in the ministry of Todd Bentley is regarding his doctrines on Israel. Please read the following article prayerfully. Kindly take time to read my comments on each such controversial doctrines of Todd Beltley in quotations. The messages of Tod Bentley are in quotations and my comments given below the quotations.
"For thousands of years, God has used the land of Israel to mold His people towards the dream He has in His heart for them. Throughout all world history, God has chosen the Holy Land as a powerful statement to the people of the earth. The Father’s desire to rescue, establish, build and nurture the ones He loves is so evidently displayed in the rich history of this nation. There is no encounter that parallels the experience of walking and praying in Israel. If you have ever dreamed of visiting Israel, prayerfully consider this window of opportunity to walk where Jesus walked, during this nation’s 60th Anniversary".
My comments:
The Father's desire is not to rescrue, establish, and nurture a particular race under the New Covenant. God desires that all men should repent and accept His Son. Under the New Covenant, God is not interested in saving a particular political state but in saving His people redeemed by the precious blood of His Son. Such an experience is not scriptural at all. The Apostles like Thomas, Paul, etc. had left the land of Israel with the glorious gospel and went to distant lands and places. Here, this preacher is taking the people of God to this "holy" land and then asking the people to trample "on this holy land". If he claims this land as "holy", then all of them should remove their shoes and chappals to enter this holy land. God commanded Moses to remove his shoes while talking to him from the burning bush. We are supposed to walk like Jesus, not physically on the land of Israel, but in our spiritual life.
"Todd Bentley and Fresh Fire Ministries invite you to experience a tour through Turkey and Israel with us. This will be a unique trip as we journey to key biblical sites in these two strategic nations. We expect to be lead by the Holy Spirit into times of ministry and prayer on location, as we remain attentive to His leading. What an amazing time we will have together, praying and receiving impartation in the very geographical place where Jesus prayed, performed miracles, instructed His disciples, carried the cross, rose from the dead and ascended into the heavens! "
My Comments:
You cannot get a spiritual impartation of the Holy Spirit in a geographical place at all. Here, this servant of God is idolising this geographical place. This paves the way for the deception by the enemy. Here, another spirit of error is working through this servant of God. He is completely deceived by the Antichrist.
"We will begin our journey by arriving in Istanbul accompanied by Bobby Connor (Eagles View Ministries). Bobby is a true prophet in our day. He operates in a dynamic ability to release the heart of the Father through outstanding demonstrations of the miraculous. In Turkey, we will visit the Seven Churches of Revelation".
My Comments:
No human being can now release the heart of the Father through outstanding demonstrations of the miraculous. Jesus, the Son of God, came into the world, to release the heart of the Father through outstanding demonstration of the miraculous. The Holy Spirit has already been given to us. This is the height of the deception. The Seven Churches of Revelation are not existing now in the reality. The cement and mortar of these buildings would have undergone tremendous changes and the historical evidence of these churches may be there. It has nothing to do with our spiritual life).
"Next, we head to Jerusalem where one of the best-known tour guides available in Israel will guide us. It is a rare honor to be lead by Avner Boskey during this trip. He comes to us with many years of experience as a professional Israel Tour Guide, as well as, being powerfully filled with the Holy Spirit. He has a historical and theological depth of understanding that will deeply bless our journey".
My Comments:
It is merely a tourist adventure and has nothing to do with our spiritual life. If you have money, you can go there to see these historical places. With this money, why cannot you preach the gospel in places not reached by the gospel or build churches for the poor saints or for the persecuted Christians whose churches were burnt or destroyed by the enemies of the gospel?
"Avner and his wife, Rachel, live in the Beersheva region of Israel with their four sons. Avner studied at Hebrew University in Jerusalem, McGill University in Montreal (B.A. in Jewish Studies) and Dallas Theological Seminary (Th.M.). They have been involved for many years in evangelism, congregation planting, Bible teaching, worship and pastoral counseling. Avner has served on the Theological Commission of the United Christian Council in Israel, on the National Evangelism Committee in Israel, and from 1986–93 as associate editor of MISHKAN: a theological journal on Jewish evangelism published in Jerusalem. From 1995–96, they pastored the Messianic Center, a Messianic Jewish congregation in Saint Petersburg, Russia. Avner has also authored several exceptional books and he and Rachel have released several intercessory worship CDs.
We are still selecting the very best locations and sites to visit, carefully planning our uniquely tailored journey. Here are some of the historical landmarks that we are considering: The Mount of Olives, the Pool of Bethesda, the Upper Room, the Garden of Gethsemane, the Lions’ Gate, Via Dolorosa, the Garden Tomb, the Wailing Wall, Ein Kerem, the Dead Sea, the River Jordan, the Mount of the Beatitudes, Hezekiah's Tunnel, and Gihon Spring".
"In so many ways, the 60th anniversary of Israel becoming a nation is a very significant occasion. In 1948, Israel became an independent nation for the first time in almost 2000 years. It was part of the fulfillment of God's promise to His people that He would bring them into a land of their own.
"Thus says the Lord GOD: ‘When I have gathered the house of Israel from the peoples among whom they are scattered, and am hallowed in them in the sight of the Gentiles, then they will dwell in their own land which I gave to My servant Jacob’ (Ezekiel 28:25).
Thousands of years later—in 1948—it happened! The voice of God shook the center of the globe as recorded on the front page of The Palestine Post, May 16, 1948:
"The first independent Jewish State in 19 centuries was born in Tel Aviv... and it was immediately subjected to the test of fire. As "Medinat Yisrael" (State of Israel) was proclaimed, the battle for Jerusalem raged, with most of the city falling to the Jews. At the same time, President Truman announced that the United States would accord recognition to the new State. A few hours later, Palestine was invaded by Moslem armies from the south, east and north and Tel Aviv was raided from the air."
(Comments: If the people of God remdeemed by the precious blood of God attach importance to some historical places and monuments and set their hearts on these perishable things, they are setting up idols in their hearts. Why should they celebrate the birth of a political state? It is for the people of this nation to celebrate their political freedom. Why should the people of God associate with this particular nation so as to be antagonized by the Muslim people of the Islamic nations for whom also Christ died? This servant of God takes the people of God into the bondage of the Old Covenant and takes them back into the rudiments of the Law.
Following in the courageous steps of Joshua, the Jewish people seized their destiny and so the nations raged against them. Immediately upon this announcement, the land of Israel was attacked on all sides by seven nations. According to military strategists, victory over such a battle would be impossible. However, Israel achieved an overwhelming victory and dramatically increased its land mass. This victory stunned the world and was noted as an obvious miracle in global, political communities. To this day, although the nation of Israel is surrounded by many enemies and has many challenges, it remains strong and its strength is a prophetic declaration that trumpets loudly throughout the earth".
My Comments:
The majority of the people of Israel have not accepted Jesus as their Savior. Their hearts are hardened. Jesus Christ was crucified in their very land but have not accepted them. How can you call the surrounding nations i.e. Islamic nations as the enemies? Are they enemies to the people of God or to the people of the political Israel?)
"Sixty years sounds like a long time to most of us. However, in the history of the Jewish people—against the backdrop of thousands of years spent travailing for this fulfillment of God’s promise—possessing the land of inheritance is a new and mighty announcement of His goodness and love for all His people".
"Just as the impact of Israel has, for many generations, caused a massive shock wave throughout every earthly arena, this anniversary celebration will cause a rippling effect throughout the heavenly realms! That’s why we believe this Fresh Fire trip contains within it, a divine appointment with the reality of God’s desire to fulfill His promises in our own lives. Just like He has been faithful to the promises of His chosen people, so will He be faithful to the promises of all who love Him.
Plan now to join us on this exciting journey where we will expect a special anointing for breakthrough of miraculous overflow in our lives! This trip will forever impact your life with His goodness! It's just who He is and we fully expect to encounter Him in a powerful way as we journey through this land of promise!
Please register early for this Fresh Fire mission trip by calling our office at 604-853-9041. This trip will fill up quickly as we only have limited space in order to keep the tour and ministry as personal as possible. Thank you for your prayerful consideration in joining us! We look forward to getting to know you as we experience His great love together".
My Comments:
God TV has already become a mouthpiece of the Antichrist. This servant of God, being deceived by the Antichrist, is taking the people of God into a bondage. No special anointing of the Holy Spirit will be received in a geographical place which has been idolized now by many.
