David Wilkerson had George Warnock speak at some conferences
back in l986. Bob Phillips was
with Wilkerson's ministry at that time. After I learned about
Manifest Sons and Latter Rain doctrine I looked to see if Dave
Wilkerson ever renounced Mr. Warnock. To my knowledge he has
not. [A. (email)]
His sermons are Latter Rain and Dominionist to the core. Don't
know for how long, but his sermons (read them carefully) teach
concepts synonymous with MSOG (under other names) and Latter
Rain. Replacement Theology. Read his material carefully; you'll
see he promotes five-fold restoration of prophets and apostles
and an especially "holy" company of the Church taking
the world for Christ before Christ can return. Rev. Warnock sacrifices
all sound doctrine to this religious belief-system. No argument
with his preaching against sin -- I agree we ought not to --
and emphasis on repenting -- I agree we ought to -- but (again,
read carefully) he blames his own sin on Satan, not on his sin-nature.
This is warped.
Well loved, he could unite the visible Church (he's becoming
more and more ecumenical), and could be a possible successor
to Dr. C. Peter Wagner as the world's presiding apostle. [D.

I don't know about Hannah but my sister came to visit and
we watched a video from Wilkerson and I was shocked when he made
the statement that God was not concerned about him being biblically
correct on his sermon. Several other statements really bothered
me also. [C. (email)]
I find this one hard to take myself .. I wonder if anyone
will get Wikerson to answer. It is hard for me to believe this
of him.Someone please tell me NO . -- [B (email)]
DAVID WILKERSON Another Hindu New Age Clone of Kathryn Kuhlman
We are grateful to Chris Klippert for forwarding this information.
I have tried to get to the bottom of Wilkerson's cult for some
time with no success. He has distanced himself from Brownsville
and the Toronto Blessing, as well as other loonie Charismatics.
This seemed like a good trend. Yet his vision, which catapulted
him into the limelight of Christendom, was [erroneous], which,
when correct, simply parroted the Bible's prophetic things.
A Lutheran Pastor was giving a vision in the some building
where Wilkerson gave his at the very same instant. Wilkerson
prevailed, and he was a hit. So, between then and now Wilkerson
has walked a cautious path. Now, we finally have learned of his
origins in Kathryn Kuhlman and the Hindu New Age teachings she
passed on to him. Two other men got their power and origins from
Kuhlman-- Benny Hinn, and Dino [at the Piano]. Dino uses New
Age riffs in the treble to start many of his numbers, and Benny
Hinn teaches Hinduism in a Christian package. So, we now ask
you to examine David Wilkerson. He has to be highly dangerous
since he has maintained such a civilized aura in Charismania.
Nothing could be further from the truth.
Be warned about going to Mount Zion School of Ministry! My
son recently graduated from Mount Zion School of Ministry with
the two-year diploma. While he was attending, I definitely felt
something was odd but couldn't put our finger on the problem.
Problem? What could possibly be wrong? Dave Wilkerson is the
sponsor and founder of Mount Zion School of Ministry! We sent
our son with utter confidence and trust.
Unfortunately, we had no inkling of what was truly happening
at Mount Zion. What is Happening at Mount Zion School of Ministry?
The administration of Mount Zion is putting forward perverse
New Age theology. These teachings undermine: * Salvation through
faith in Jesus Christ alone * Divine Healing as provided for
in the atonement * Empowerment for service through the Holy Ghost
Baptism Rather than being built up with sound Biblical doctrine,
Mount Zion students are lead into a mystical world of monkish
introspection and scourging of their inner selves. They are taught
that only through a long process of breaking and or physical
(sickness) can a believer be properly equipped for ministry.
Personal Sorrow and suffering are depicted as the only means
to attain holiness and full unity or fellowship with Christ.2
Ultimately, students are informed through Hannah Hurnard's writings
that every human affection must be destroyed as a sacrifice to
God. The students are lead to believe that in this life, their
human affections must be completely removed. When this work is
achieved inner sorrow and suffering will supposedly vanish away!
3 I have only recently discovered that Dave Wilkerson also puts
forward SOME of these ideas in his book Hungry For More of Jesus.4
NOTICE: every teacher at Mount Zion does not promote The above
Theology. Nonetheless, every student is exposed to and strongly
inseminated with these doctrines. When my son gave a talk about
victory in Jesus his message was refused and another had to be
submitted.
Implementing Truth? -- Oh Dear! These bazaar teachings at
Mount Zion were clearly exemplified when my son initiated, with
some faculty resistance, a love offering to pay for a fellow
student's tooth extraction. This student was suffering with two
seriously decayed teeth and defiantly did not have the resources
to pay a dentist. A week or so after the collection was gathered
the students were informed that it was a sin to interfere with
God's dealings. The students were told, that by giving help,
we hinder the suffering that God has willed and thus, a needed
lesson will not be learned!
Reader, please remember that the above approach to suffering
is a fundamental tenant of Islam but not Christianity. It is
certainly not consistent with our past image of Dave Wilkerson
and his ministry! Nevertheless, this was not an isolated case
at Zion. The prayer of faith is not part of the Zion experience.
Rather, suffering in body and soul are put forward as God's tools
for our betterment. If this troubles you and sounds unbelievable
than check below and read our book review of Dave's Hungry for
More of Jesus. Polluted Wells We have told you the good news
and from here things get much worse. At Mount Zion School of
Ministry President Catherine has stayed the course upon two books.
First, the Bible (good! very good!) as might be expected and
secondly, the writings and spirituality of Hannah Hurnard. In
Dave Wilkerson's graduation speech he admitted twice that Catherine
was no Theologian but was deeply spiritual. What Dave failed
to say or realize was that Catherine is a Hannah Hurnardite.
In my son's first year Catherine used Hannah's Hinds' Feet on
High Places as the main chapel
devotional guide.
President Catherine continues to base her life's message upon
Hannah's teaching. Hannah's writings are not simply another book
at Zion but are described by Catherine as "inspired by the
Holy Spirit." Hannah's book Mountains of Spices was used
in a class during my son's second year while the Hinds' Feet
message was ongoing in all that Catherine emphasized and imparted.
The Spawn of Satan So, who is Hannah Hurnard?
By the end of her life Hannah Hurnard established herself
as an extreme heretic of the first order, who, put forward a
smorgasbord of extreme New Age Theology including, open rejection
of the Gospel, Hyper Necromancy, Universalism, Pantheism, Reincarnation,
and much more. Her final book The Inner Man, is only available
though New Age book suppliers. My Christian bookstore could not
trade with these sources. Nevertheless, Hannah's Hinds' Feet
remains very high on the Christian, best sellers book list. Having
a "flowers and spice" approach, Hinds' Feet simply
appears to be another "girl thing" book. Actually,
Hinds' Feet has some very hurtful Theology but you must read
carefully and listen to what is being said, rather than what
is being felt.
Remember, every feeling must bow to the Word of God! Hannah's
fall from the truth was no fall at all. A malevolent spirit controlled
her before she ever started writing. In her first book Hind's
Feet she introduces several extreme New Age teachings but dresses
them in flowers, nature, lovely animals and a idealistic romance
with the Shepherd. She wrote of a long journey to the High Places
or Kingdom of Love. In her last book The Inner Man she confirms
that this climb to the High Places depicts our exodus from Physical
consciousness to inner "mysticism" or soul world awareness.
She says that this process of passing from one world to the
other is called dyeing to self and is only achieved through our
personal sorrow and suffering. In Eagles' Wings Hannah asserts
that her message
contradicts the Fundamental Gospel of salvation through faith
in Jesus and the repentance of sin. Remember, Hannah's false
spirituality is only achieved through our personal sorrow and
suffering. Conversely, we know that if our personal sacrifice
could save us than the shepherd might just as well be Buddha.
If Christ's blood brings our Salvation than only Jesus will
suffice! The message that we preach is just as important as the
name we follow! Far, Far, Far Out!-- Talking to the Dead In Hannah's
The Inner Man she declares that our awakening to the unseen world
is a wonderful liberation. We are then free to travel about in
the spirit and to congregate with other kindred spirits. We are
also told that we may converse with the dead in spite of Scripture's
prohibition, because, Jesus has approved this practice and he
acts as the medium between the dead and the living. Hannah asserts
entering this mystical world awakens us to new inner powers.
She says that our mind cannot only read thoughts but our mind
can altar the physical world around us. Through positive thinking
Hannah ascribes powers to us that belong only to God in heaven.
All of this occurs after we have earned the high places via sorry
and suffering. Consider how that all of these Satanic teaching
began with a supposed righteous journey up to the Kingdom of
Love. Was this an innocent journey or one of the great deceptions
of the 20th Century? The end of the matter has not yet been told.
How many well meaning Christians are drawing their spirituality
from Hannah's well and in the process are drinking from a cup
of demonic deception? How many are seeking holiness through their
own sacrifices rather than Christ's Cross and are thus trusting
in an anti-Cross? How many place their inner revelations above
the Scripture and in so doing are following another Christ? May
God save us! Will he find faith when he comes?

Shall I Attend Mount Zion School of Ministry? Well, if you
are considering attending Mount Zion School of Ministry you now
have something to pray about. * Ask any Mount Zion student about
Hannah Hurnard's books at Mount Zion. * Inquire about "brokenness"
and sorrow and suffering at Mount Zion. * Read Hinds' Feet for
yourself or look at other books by Hannah. * Judge weather the
graduates of Mount Zion display the love and anointing that you
seek. * Don't follow any man's great name but follow Christ and
His Word! I might suggest a visit but visitors have not generally
been welcome. Apparently, the leaders of Mount Zion are genuinely
frightened that Hannah's Theology might be exposed.
Boo0!!!! Touch Not the Lord's Anointed! I know that some will
shutter because they believe that I have touched the Lord's anointed.
Yes, I take that thought very seriously! I remember that David's
heart smote him for simply cutting off Saul's skirt. Do you think
I am smiling? No, I am not. Yet, I place God's Word
above all men, reputations, and all experiences and presumed
anointing. "And the times of this ignorance God winked at;
but now commandeth all men every where to repent:" Acts
17:30
I refuse to remain silent while Satan damages the cream of
future Pentecostal ministry! No one can be allowed to sabotage
the message of salvation or the truth of enduement with power
for service through the Baptism in the Holy Ghost! When you are
sick, do you want a minister with "sympathy" or Holy
Ghost power? Be careful about who prays for your healing. They
might believe that your sickness is a blessing from God! You
won't find much faith or power in their empty hands. You might
even hear a little voice murmur, "Welcome to the high places
of SUFFERING AND AFFLICTION."
NOTICE: Twice, I contacted Dave Wilkerson and informed him
about Hannah Hurnard and her abominable heresies. I thought Dave
would want to explore the documentation that I had gathered.
I believed Dave would do something to distance his school from
such shame! Finally, Dave has done something. He has sent word
saying that since my son does not agree with Mount Zion's teachings
(Hannah Hurnard's Heresy) he must not to return to fulfill his
required internship. What could Dave's response mean? Why would
he not stand for truth? Now, my son suffers and is persecuted
for righteousness sake and the Word of God. Although, his sufferings
will not make him more holy, his sufferings will certainly increase
his heavenly reward. (Matthew 5:12)
I am posting this information as a sincere warning to aspiring
ministers. I have no fear, because, the God that I serve places
his Word above even his name. (Psalm 138:2) Written by: James
Thorpe PO Box 1962
Pulaski, VA 24301
In the 1960s I personally participated in Dave Wilkerson's
ministries by being placed in charge of a weekly reform school
ministry that Teen Challenge had initiated. Furthermore, I later
worked a few evenings at the Lost Coin with Dave's sainted mother.
I also distributed his Cross and Switchblade book on the streets
and drove teens to his meetings where I was a personal altar
worker. I am an Ordained Pentecostal Pastor, former children's
evangelist, teen minister, and missionary to Honduras. I love
the Word of God more than life and Jesus most of all. I am aware
of the broad support that Dave Wilkerson enjoys.
Nevertheless, I must fulfill my commission to warn those who
stray and those who will be hurt. Hannah Hurnard's doctrine is
certainly being taught at Mount Zion. Think of the harm that
this deceptive spirit will bring to future generations! * Hungry
