To Whom It May Concern,
During this last year, I publicly shared an encounter I had with the Great Cloud of Witnesses along with the
biblical perspectives and thoughts I have regarding that subject and the power of Christ to raise the dead.
Some leaders I deeply respect in the Body of Christ were alarmed and concerned about the theological validity
and practical application of certain aspects of these communications. Not all, but some of these concerns have
developed due to a result of misrepresentation of what I have shared and believe. I have been verbally misquoted
as well as in writing on a few occasions.
After receiving counsel with my advisors and numerous trusted prophetic ministries I realize that I made a
mistake in releasing these revelatory speculations publicly, prior to a thorough theological study to ensure
biblical integrity and validity.
I am deeply sorry for any problems that have arisen as a result. It is not my heart to hurt, mislead or
unnecessarily alarm. It is my desire, though, to push the church out of its complacency and provoke believers
to deeper levels of commitment to the Lord. I seek forgiveness for my mistake. I am praying to cover and protect
anyone from misapplying anything that they have heard me share.
Please understand however, I am not admitting error in any of the content I have shared. A full theological
review will determine this in the future. But, I am very sorry for communicating it in wrong timing, in an unwise
manner, and perhaps to wrong audiences who were not ready or able to process and sift through the concepts and
revelations.
I have officially removed the CD teaching on the Great Cloud of Witnesses from our resource department and all
mention on our website of these subjects at this time. During this particular season of scrutiny, I will not
personally mention these topics publicly although I am aware of other authentic and seasoned ministers who are
ready, prepared, and called of the Lord at this hour to release biblical teaching on these topics. I do not desire
my shortcoming in this season to place a cloud on what they are called by God to bring forth.
In order to grow in understanding and wisdom, I am personally initiating the seeking of theological, apostolic,
and prophetic counsel and process at this time. Within the next year or so we will prepare a final synopsis which
will be made available publicly.
In the meantime, I pray that you will find it in your heart to forgive me for any unnecessary problems or
tensions that I might have caused you or any one else in the Body that has come as a result of sharing prematurely
and/or to the wrong audience.
I am grateful for all the input, even that which has come with misunderstanding, criticism, and judgment,
as it has offered me the opportunity to grow deeper in love. (Matt. 5:43-48). I am especially grateful for my
advisors who have been amazing beyond belief in their support and encouragement. But most of all, I am grateful
to Jesus Christ who is both Grace and Truth. Oh, how I love Him! And oh, how I love you!
Humbly submitted in the presence of Christ and you!
