Bill Johnson and his wife, Beni, are both contributors to the book The Physics of Heaven. Bill Johnson’s administrative assistant, Judy Franklin, co-authored the book. The Foreword is written by Bethel’s Kris Vallotton, and the book is endorsed by Banning Liebscher of Jesus Culture.
Is this a problem?
As co-author Ellyn Davis acknowledges, “[The contributors of the book] all agree that the next move of God will cause a shift at the deepest level of who we are—perhaps the very ‘vibrational level’ that the New Age movement has been exploring. They also all agree that there are precious truths hidden in the New Age that belong to us as Christians and need to be extracted from the worthless.” [1]
According to contributor Jonathan Welton, “I have found throughout Scripture at least 75 examples of things that the New Age has counterfeited, such as having a spirit guide, trances, meditation, auras, power objects, clairvoyance, clairaudience, and more. These actually belong to the church, but they have been stolen and cleverly repackaged.” [2]
It gets worse.

Wow! Thanks, M’Kayla.
Hello my friend. It isn’t just BJ who teaches these things. I learned them years ago in dream interpretation, more as a side note, with John Paul Jackson. He claims ability to do all sorts of supernatural things which at one time only the sanest of people understood them to be of the occult. And yes, he, and those who have become teachers after him, Barbie Breathitt, Doug Addison, etc, claim these abilities were actually intended for the “church”. They even go as far as to say the abilities of a psychic comes from God, they just don’t realize it yet. Their bottom line is the occult is truly of God. Of course these are beliefs preached among those who practice and follow the false prophetic, false healing movements, etc. – the NAR and so on. The church of Christ no longer understands its true roots and seems quite happy to have parted from the faith. 😦
It just keeps getting nuttier by the day…..

Yes, but I think Bethel is like Geneva (you know what I’m saying?)
Well, Satan has many headquarters these days, right? I feel bad for the people who have followed Bill Johnson, trusting that what they hear and learn is of the Lord.
Bethel “Church” is surely Satan’s headquarters on earth. Of that, there is no doubt.
