He is an awesome man... A great faith preacher.. And it is very old news that he is preaching in UPC churches.... He preaches in non-upc churches as well... If you ever hear he is in your area go see him and expect the unexpected...

R. Mitchell is someone who was greatly used of God at one time and evidently sideswiped by the adversary. Let's face it, if there was nothing unique about his 'preaching for UPC' folks this thread wouldn't have had significance.

He is the one that was supposedly led around Africa years ago by an angel. Saw some great things and I, personally, saw some miraculous things that were done as a result of his prayers. As with all those who are 'prophetically inclined' there will be some who shout "FAKE!" and others who will almost become cultic in following the hype of a prophetic ministry. Most think Bro. Mitchell was the real deal.

Most powerful men become targets of the adversary and Bro. Mitchell was no different. There were some moral problems that he was accused of and it pretty much cost him his ministry.

Thus... the Apostolic movement is faced with one of the greatest dilemmas of our existence... How do we deal, if at all, with restoring fallen ministers? That is another topic... and a frightening one for most.

I've heard it said that Bro. Mitchell supposedly made himself accountable and has proven himself trustworthy in the eyes of some Pastors. I guess that is why he's preaching for some of them.

Brother we need to find a way to restore fallen ministers. We have been afarid to look for ways to do so, but I really think we need to develope a manner of dealing with them.

If the last paragraph is true, I have no reason to think other wise because your a true christian in every sense, then I have no problem with this man preaching again.

I agree.
Why do we keep burying our wounded?

I am not impressed by any means with Mitchell....

I have seen the type of offerings he raises with many promises and "prophecies" for those who will give...

But many are motivated by those who bring the dollars in....

For me they are no better than the TBN crowd..just a different suit...


Now if Bro Mitchell has changed and is doing better I hope the best for him...but if he's the same...

Sad...

Your post would have been much better just to have said the highlighted part... You start off with a negative and then say, "O well, if he has changed," ect...

I know many who have been prophecied over, incredibly accurate I might add, without giving one dime... Me included.. For you to insinuate he was motivated by money to do so is dumb.

Perhaps you might find someone who hasn't dealt with him personally to join in with your "unimpressed" status..
