ANECDOTE

Charles Finney As A Model For Reproof

Michael Lake recounts Charles Finney's courtroom-style reproof that exposed sin to bring conviction.
He praises confronting error clearly so God's correction can follow.

INSIGHT

Walking Upstream As A Kingdom Posture

Christians are called to walk upstream against cultural currents rather than float downstream.
That upstream walk requires endurance and learned kingdom practices.

ADVICE

Take The Whole Bible Seriously

Embrace the full counsel of Scripture: Old and New Testaments together form correct definitions.
Avoid being only a New Testament minister because that invites error through lost foundations.

Endure Sound Doctrine: Walking Upstream in the Last Days | KIB 496

Kingdom Intelligence Briefing

Description

In Kingdom Intelligence Briefing #496, Dr. Michael & Mary Lou Lake call the remnant to endure sound doctrine (2 Timothy 4) and reject the avalanche of error sweeping the modern church. From hermeneutics (exegesis vs. eisegesis) to functional kingdom theology, they unpack how to live the ultimate counterculture—holy, steadfast, and free from Babylon's influence. Includes intercession, ministry updates, biblical correction done in love, and a closing prayer commissioning the remnant to walk the King's Highway.

Key Scriptures: 2 Timothy 4:1–5; themes of holiness, sanctification, endurance, and returning to the full counsel of God (Genesis → Revelation).

Prayer Focus & Updates: Intercede against occult activity, protection of children, healing for Justin & spouse, Troy's surgery, and continued recovery after cataract surgery. Note the overlap of Fall Equinox (Sept 22) with Feast of Trumpets—pray that the authority of Jesus neutralizes darkness.
