Classic Discernment Moment: Bethel Church Prophet Says Jesus Frequently ‘Took the Scripture out of Context’
Kris Vallotton is the co-founder of the School of the Prophets and Senior Associate Leader of Bethel Church. We’ve covered him a few times, such as during our Bethel Leader Says Prophets Can Cause Randos To Prophecy + be ‘Activated’ Just By Being Around Them, our story on Bethel Prophet Reveals Miracle of ‘Second Virginity’: ‘Hundreds of Hymens Grew Back’ the time Bethel ‘Prophet’ Who Falsely Prophesied Trump’s Victory Headlines Prophetic Conference and Bethel’ Pastor’ Says Michael the Archangel Dresses in ‘Wrestling Tights,’ is ‘always Grumpy’ posts, of which he was the prime subject.
With men like discernment minister Mike Winger affirming that he would freely fellowship with the Bethelites and that ‘real prophecy and real healing are coming out of this group,” we thought we would repost a classic. On April 14, 2010, Kris Vallotton shared with Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry his novel perspectives on Jesus’ abilities to correctly interpret scripture, demonstrating that with his bizarre hermeneutic, he is in no position to be teaching anyone
(The Way Jesus preached) it’s the total opposite of American Christianity. When we preach, we want to make sure you got the point, we give you three illustrations, tell you a little story. Right? You have to have six scriptures to validate that what you said is actually in the book, make sure that the history of each scripture is actually validated so that all of the people that are in the crowd understand that you didn’t make this stuff, and that you didn’t take it out of context, and so on, so forth.
Jesus is not that careful. I don’t mean you shouldn’t be, I just mean he wasn’t. It’s amazing how many scriptures- okay, this is going to be hard. I don’t even know if I’m gonna believe what I’m about to say.
This would be a really interesting study: take the New Testament and read what Jesus quoted, and then interpreted it to me. Okay? Follow me. And then go back to the different passages that Jesus quoted and see what the prophet meant them to mean, when he wrote them.
You’re gonna find a very interesting dynamic, that Jesus oftentimes took scripture out of context, and meant it to mean something that the Prophet didn’t mean it to mean when he said it. But of course, if you’re Jesus, you could do whatever you want, because… that’s just a little funny. So here’s the point. God speaks in mysteries.
