The Christian Post reports:
International House of Prayer Kansas City founder Mike Bickle has agreed to step away from public ministry as he is investigated for “serious allegations including sexual immorality” that have been made against him by multiple women.
Leaders of the charismatic Evangelical Christian movement and missions organization based in Kansas City, Missouri, made the revelations of the allegations Sunday at the 11 a.m. service of the ministry’s “local church expression,” Forerunner Church, where Isaac and Morgan Bennett serve as lead pastors.
Bickle, IHOPKC leaders further noted, agreed that he would not preach or teach from the church’s platform, engage with the public on social media or participate in the church’s well-known 24-hour prayer room on Red Bridge Road in south Kansas City “while we work with others to assess this situation.”
Read the full article. Bickle first appeared on JMG in 2011 when he declared that “demons have attacked me physically at least ten times.” He also appeared here in 2016 when Ted Cruz was roasted for “proudly” accepting his presidential endorsement despite Bickle’s claim that God sent Hitler to kill Jews for not accepting Jesus.
