While being very vague, he nevertheless seems to believe the New covenant is a special covenant with the Jews and has regard to their occupation of Palestine, and that growing anti-Israeli political sentiment is "Satan's rage against the (new) covenant": see ---> https://joelstrumpet.com/wp-content/...es-of-God-.pdf

He is a futurist: ---->https://joelstrumpet.com/the-futuris...se-in-luke-21/

I have long ago disregarded any prophetic interpretative opinions by established futurists because they err in the fundamentals, therefore any correct conclusions they might make would be akin to a broken clock being correct about the time.

I have come to the understanding that not all "futurists" are created equal. Joel's motivation is predominantly is Zionistic. I watched the video, and now the Q&A. He sounds more like the Ambassador for Israel, than an Ambassador for Christ.

So, infidelities, IHOP, and cover-ups. Where have we seen this play out before? Oh, wait, it's playing out right now with Reed.

This happened over in Turkey?

This was the ministry's founder?

The main thrust of this ministry is Israel. Muslims are converted to their brand of Christian Zionism. Period.

Apparently. And Joel Richardson is on the Board? and when other key persons found out about the incident and the results and requested the Board to address them, Mr Richardson just decided nothing would be done going forward.

But I have been reading some of his ideas. I think he is where Aquila got his "Islamic Antichrist" ideas from a couple years back? Anyway, the guy is like you said ambassador for Israel.

The issue I have with Richardson is it appears he is interpreting scripture through the lense and with primary emphasis on Islamic texts.

After thinking about this islam copied us first. It's a mutual exchange of ideas. The main issue is Zionism. And revising Eschatology to fit the current headlines.

Yes, and as you continue to look closer you see it is less about Christ's return, and more about Israel's return. Hence the reason Zionists are not offended by the Zionist Christian. The Latin Proverb "amicus meus, inimicus inimici mei." Which basically means, "the enemy of my enemy is my friend."

Richardson in his Zionist agenda creates an enemy all can hate and feel good about hating them. Because they are hated by God. God wrote them into His scriptures as His number one enemy. Hey, Richardson believes that they're the actual Serpent seed which Jesus will crush under His heel. Therefore, their extermination is really helping Jesus crush their skulls. Sure, sure, Richardson also has some sort of outreach to these seeds of Satan. To turn them from their Satanic ways, but not really looking to make them followers of Christ exactly. The main thrust is to make them followers of Zionistic ideal. These Arabs, need to come to the realization that Modern Zionist Israel is the apple of God's eye. Modern Zionist Israel is favored above all. Jesus is returning for Modern Zionist Israel. So, Arab, and Christian need to get busy in supporting Modern Zionist Israel. Jesus is the Prince of Peace, not the prince of blowing people to pieces. We have a Gospel of a blessed hope which all can have the power right here and now. The death, burial, and resurrection in Jesus name. The infilling of the Holy Ghost in Jesus name.

To sit and listen to Richardson talk for an hour about Modern Zionist Israel and how they have it so bad. All because they are not all practicing Rabbinical Babylonian Talmudic Judaism? Is blasphemy.

Where do you see in that in the Article? It doesn't mention anything about Joel.
