One of the reasons I was so gung-ho for the movement was because I got some powerful supernatural signs when we asked God to confirm it. What I didn't realize at the time was that those signs came forth because I submitted myself to Dr. Brown's radio show, and Dr. Brown's ministry has teams of intercessors who pray (prey) over the hearts and minds of all it reaches.
That being said, even while I attended Fire School of Ministry, I had raised concerns with the leadership on a number of things. The last meeting I had with the lead pastor of the church/school I told him there was witchcraft at work in the leadership, even though I could not articulate exactly what that meant clearly. I knew it by the fruit and the Holy Spirit was helping me to undertstand even when I was in the midst of the deception.
I was so conflicted about being in the school, though, because of the signs. At that meeting I clearly heard Jesus say to me, "I'm pulling you out."
It was two more years, however, before I actually understood clearly about how submission and authority work and could see Jesus' warnings about submitting to hypocritical spiritual authorities in the gospels, and Paul's warning that hypocritical ministries are functioning in demonic power in 1 Tim. 4:1-5.
After leaving the school of ministry, we bounced around various churches. Almost all of them, it became clear, were connected to Fire School of Ministry, or the New Apostolic Reformation, in some way. Then I started to see how this whole mess is a series of pyramid schemes within a larger pyramid. Researching on the internet uncovered countless testimonies of people who got caught up in other bigtime NAR churches and their experiences were just like mine.
Here is a video I created on the organizational structure of the New Apostolic Reformation. Many within the network act like there is no structure, but that's a lie. Since they hold to this scheme of direct submission to man so strongly, the affiliations are quite real, though they don't necessarily divulge that to the public.
