On this episode of Radical Radio, Robby sits down to unpack the chaotic Mark Driscoll/John Lindell situation. Robby also discusses the dangers of entertainment in the church, and how we can correctly apply Matthew 18. So many opinions have come out about this matter but the question remains: What is the biblical response to situations like these? Nothing is off limits on Radical Radio, listen to this for Robby’s perspective on how we make a strong stand for Biblical confrontation.

Absolutely. A leader of a large church, read private messages to the congregation, called for them to shun Mark, basically, and said Mark was doing this to promote his book, his agenda. I guess John says and does whatever he wants, truth or not, because he is anointed.

Lindell put jezebel before these men. Driscoll humbly called it out. Instead of Lindell seeing the wrong in this and asking for forgiveness before the men, he grew angry and prideful against Driscoll and asked him to leave. There is something going on with Lindell to not see anything wrong with what he put before these men and for continuing to bad mouth him for this. I would seriously reconsider my attendance at Lindell's church. Something is not right.

Mark's been teaching on Revelation where Jesus warns the churches to NOT tolerate the Jezebel spirit which they largely ignore. The Jezebel spirit opened the men's conference and Mark called it out publicly. We don't have enough Pastors calling out boldly in the moment where Jezebel has been allowed. Then Lindell protecting himself sealed it exposing a lot more wrong with the church today.

Driscoll was right. The Pastor of that church and the cowards that support him need some serious confrontation. These are the same type of people that looked the other way, made excuses, protected their job, at places like IHOPKC. The compromise and and cover ups likely happens more than we know. I’m trying to figure out why so many men tolerated the pole dance in the first place. A man of God would have gotten up and left that sorry excuse and ironically named Stronger Men men’s conference. The bigger problem is not the performance, that’s a symptom. The issue is that several people in leadership at that event had to sign off on it. It was not spontaneous. It was planned and probably rehearsed. And… that no one stood up in the moment and turned over the tables. At a “Stronger Men”? Conference? All those Christian men there at this AG mega church and no one had the discernment or courage to stand up and say something? No significant pushback until Driscoll said something the next day. He was probably hesitant to do it because of his relationship with Lindell. I think Driscoll tried the best way he knew how. Then it all turned into a 6th grade mean girls drama. Worse yet for all the critics to see. I left an AG church once over a similar matter. People willing to compromise and be friendly with obvious sin. It’s horrible.

I appreciate this dissertation on the asherah pole debacle. Very wise. I enjoyed it. I know personally. I listened to Mark back in the day, and then moved on/lost interest after his whole fall/controversy. But I must say. After seeing this, I am re-subscribed and have listened to quite a number of his talks on the Jezebel spirit. As a recovering Ahab, stepping into his role as an Elijah - I am all too familiar with dealing with the Jezebel spirit. More than I ever cared to be. And personally, speaking out and speaking up in public is the ONLY way to begin to dismantle the Jezebel spirit. We've kept things "private" for far too long. And "private" allows the Jezebel spirit to continue to spin things and gaslight and play "he/she said" ... Only humble, public, direct confrontation will begin to shift things. And Mark did all those things quite well. Like you, Mr. Dawkins - Mark is a man of men. A leader of leaders. And I'm all in with that. He may not be a perfect man (who, besides King Jesus is?), but he has a Father's heart. And it's time for some father's to start kick'n some Jezebel butt :) Arise BRIDE. Game on. Much love! As ONE.

@davidc4233 in multiple instances of Acts, they laid their hands on all, and they all were baptized. On the day of Pentecost, all were baptized in the upper room and speaking in tongues. Do not conflate 1 Cor 14, which is a demonstration of corporate tongues that are used to prophesy, with the baptism of the Holy Spirit as evidenced with tongues in Acts. Two different manifestations, two different administrations. If a person wants the baptism of the Holy Spirit, I've yet to see it not be dispensed. That said, do I prophesy with tongues even though I speak it? No. It isn't the way the Holy Spirit works through me to the body.

What’s wild is that by Lindell’s own actions, he shows that he agrees with how Mark handled it because if he applied his own theological application of Matthew 18, then Mark did an offense against him personally which he addressed publicly. There’s such a conflict there. If he felt Mark offended him then he should have gone to him privately. But no, he did it on stage. Whereas Mark did not commit an offense against Lindell, he witnessed a public display and went to the same arena to make commentary. Contrast what Lindell did, he said that Mark’s comments were a personal offense that he then handled publicly. So either Lindell has to say Matthew 18 applies to private and public “offenses” or he has to say he was wrong in accusing Mark of not following Matthew 18. Can’t have it both ways.

Let's look at the context of this rebuke and compare it to this men's conference. The event was put on by James River Church. Driscol was a guest. Mark did not have the spiritual authority to rebuke the church or the event. When he rebuked the event without authority, he was in the wrong. Pastor Lindel had the right to confront him. Right or wrong is not the issue. It is one of rebellion against the authority in the situation. Mark Driscol has a history of doing this. In the case of Paul calling out Peter. Peter was visiting the church where Paul was in a position of spiritual authority. Paul had the right to rebuke Peter. We need to get back to understanding that we are all under the authority of Christ and that we do not have the right to act the way we feel is right.

@@karenhigginson2155 Hi Karen. You are both right and wrong. Jesus is the source of all authority. But God's form of government is delegated authority. When Christ issues authority to church leaders, they are responsible directly to Christ for how they use that authority. Pastor Lindell was operating within the authority entrusted to him as the pastor. God will hold him personally responsible for how he used that entrusted or delegated authority. Mark Driscoll was not in a position of spiritual authority over Pastor Lindell in this conference. He was a guest and thus under Pastor Lindell's authority. Mark admitted this when Pastor Lindell told him that his time was up and to leave the stage. As I mentioned, he was free to proclaim his "word", but not in that location. He could have waited until after the event or left the event. He could have NOT walked up onto stage but have left the event and then made his "word" from a place that was not under the authority of Pastor Lindell. If he was truly looking to deliver a "word from God" to the leadership, he should have done so in private. You say that you believe that the Holy Spirit was working through Driscoll to call out the Jezebel Spirit. Perhaps that is so, but the Holy Spirit would not have led Driscoll to do so in a manner that was rebellious to the authority of Christ as represented in Pastor Lindell. (See "Spiritual Authority" by Watchman Nee.) Something to consider. This is not the first time Mark Driscoll has caused an uproar around the subject of a recently published book (Spirit of Jezebel, published fall 2023) in order to either increase sales or to self promote. In October 2013 he crashed a John Mac Arthur 'Strange Fire' conference. He was not invited, he just showed up, opened a box of his latest book, and began giving them away. When he was asked to remove his books from the conference, he resisted until he was told that security would box his books up and take them to his car etc. He tweeted out a deceptive tweet stating that he was at the conference and that his books had been confiscated. It was purely a marketing stunt designed to create social media traffic and self promotion. Sound familiar? By the way, he was part of a scheme to have his church, Mars Hill, purchase 10,000 plus copies of one of his books to get it on the New York Times best seller list. Deception. Deception is not of the Holy Spirit.

All the men at the conference witnessed the opening demonstration. I believe Marc did his best to explain his concerns and bring them forward to everyone who was in attendance. As observed (and indicated by Jesus in Rev 2), Jezebel does not willingly repent. Instead, that spirit chooses offense, appeals to emotion, and casts blame..
@TedHatfield1

Robbie, thanks for having the courage to 'table' such a difficult subject, and for maintaining a spirit of grace and love in the process.These issues are difficult to handle, especially since so often Christians feel entitled to proffer opinions when they (obviously and even admittedly) only see through a glass darkly and know only in part the context, the history, or the background of the event. One wonders, then, whether the directions/constrictions of Matthew 18 are even relevant to, or constitute the appropriate way to deal with, such public errors in judgement as this one since the verses were addressed to (single person) individuals, not groups. Would not, perhaps, the proper response have been to simply walk out of the meeting and postpone the confrontation until the actual conditions met the Matthew 18 directions (first, one on one)? To what sin do we all seem to so easily be influenced by that we feel that we must do everything publicly, thus giving the enemy of our souls additional means by which to drag Christ's Name through the mud? Oh how easily we justify our carnal desire to broadcast our opinions!

This bs about quoting the Bible to say “you should come to me in private” is nonsense. The act was done in public, in front of the whole church/conference. So it merits a calling out in public. The end. His “come to me in private” mess was just a poor attempt to justify “I’m completely embarrassed”, and ultimately resulted in blasphemy on his part.

Thanks Robbie for all that you shared I do not know any of the men that were in any of those videos so I cannot address the character of any of them but I was very troubled by Lindell's statements publicly to his church. I never saw any of the interview of both of them sitting together on the stage and having any conversation so that was new to me but I did not see anything out of line with Mark Driscoll's attitude or words regarding the Jezebel spirit that he noted. From what I heard I agreed that he was not calling out any persons but was calling out a spirit. I don't know any of the backstory of any of these people or the churches so I can't make any judgment but I felt very unsettled by what I heard from Lindell's statements. I appreciate your clarifying and your counsel Robbie. I'm feeling very uncertain about a lot of calling out of Christian leaders these days by other people. I realize that sin needs to be addressed but our ability to social media communication to the world is maybe not always the best avenue for dealing with these things. Help Holy Spirit.

Is Matthew 18 the only scripture in the bible when issues arise? I think Galatians‬ ‭2‬:‭11 is way more fitting in this situation ‬ ‭“Now when Peter had come to Antioch, I withstood him to his face, because he was to be blamed;” and also Galatians‬ ‭2‬:‭14‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ “But when I saw that they were not straightforward about the truth of the gospel, I said to Peter Before them all “If you, being a Jew, live in the manner of Gentiles and not as the Jews, why do you compel Gentiles to live as Jews?” He did it before them all! When Peter as a leader got out of line, Paul rebuked him publicly!! Using Matthew 18 is so hypocritical when after the emails are sent to his son, the other Pastor responds publicly. Were you using Matthew 18 then? I would be running from that Church, it’s sickening! ‭‭ ‭‭

They gave an equal platform to mark to speak, to worship and to a stripper. The platform or the scope of influence the sin took should equal the call for repentance. We can’t ask God for discernment and then rebuke the gift when it’s used. 2019 brought the prophetic word that God would expose things hidden in order to rebuke and here we have it literally and representationally shown.

The A of G church had already grown lukewarm by 2000, but when their leadership went into the Pensacola/Brownsville church and demanded that the mighty move of God shut down immediately, that started an avalanche of apostasy in that demonimation. As far as I'm concerned it's over for them now. It is written, "Come out of her and be separate."

Thank you for the response. I don't think there is a single thing wrong with how Mark responded to this. I know Mark has gotten a lot of criticism based on his past, but to me that's just ad hominem attacks. It has nothing to do with the merits for or against what Mark and John has said or done, when it comes to this situation in particular. The only argument I've heard against Mark, is that he has a sordid past and is not fit to be a pastor, so people should not listen to him. But I think the problem is, if you take the messenger out of the equation, and just look at the facts of what happened, this situation is extremely damning for John Lindell: 1/ The pole dance is clearly sexual in nature, and has no place in the body of Christ. Men who attended the conference that are struggling with same sex attraction have since come out and said that they had come to that conference for help with this, witnessed the performance and were directly tempted by it. If anyone were to try to deny this was a sexually provocative performance, just substitute a woman in there instead of a man, and you immediately see. No place for that in the church. 2/ John Lindell lied about Alex, the performer. He is not a Christian, he does not have kids, so the narrative that John was trying to paint in his indictment of Mark, was a bold faced lie right from the start. 3/ John Lindell's claim that he is beyond criticism because he is 'anointed' is absolutely insane. It's a desperate grasp at a shield to avoid any accountability in this. Pastors are simply men. They can lie, they can have agendas, they can make terrible mistakes, and they can be influenced by demons, just like anyone else can. To suggest they are 'anointed' and thus can't be criticized or wrong is a demonic notion. 4/ John Lindell and James River Church have since sponsored on RU-vid the full sermon of John calling on Mark to repent. That means they are paying RU-vid to artificially prop it up in the algorithms, to increase it's reach - and on top of that, they are actively deleting negative comments off of it (of which there are A LOT, the majority of people support Mark in this). So they are censoring criticism of John and support of Mark, even in that. Dishonest behavior all around. Mark is a man. A flawed man. He's made mistakes in his past - as we all have. Are pastors to be held to a higher standard in these things? Perhaps, but there needs to be a fulsome discussion when it comes to this type of thing, and a clear delineation on what that higher standard actually entails, and what it applies to. Can certain sins preclude a man from preaching from the pulpit? Perhaps. But we can't simply write off every single thing a pastor ever says because they may have made mistakes, or even acted immorally in the past. Arguments like this need to be evaluated and weighed based on the merits of both sides, not based on who is delivering the argument. I don't take Mark's side in this because it's Mark that's saying it. I take his side because on the weight of the evidence, it's clear it's the right position to take. It could have been Joel Olsteen presenting this argument, for all I care. If the argument is sound, that's what matters.

Robby, I had to wait until the fervor settled down to listen to anything about the Lindell meltdown. Your sober, honest and fair assessment of Both sides of this is most refreshing. You did what few claim to do when referring to "speaking the Truth in Love". We as individuals, or corporately as a local body (a church), must pluck the beam out of our own eyes to even begin to see. Lindell only sought to justify his own actions. While I believe Driscoll spoke the Truth to that church, they did not receive it. Driscolls return to speak with, to be spoken to by Lindell was a mistake. Wanting to be a pleaser, Lindell wrongly began to walk back his initial statement, which again, I believe was from God. Bad things happen when we compromise. Worse yet, the Ashara poles and the High Places remain and make us guilty of Syncretism.

Right from the start, Mark said it was "a rebuke or correction of NO ONE, but an OBSERVATION"! In other words, a perfect opportunity to TEACH something NEEDED for ALL of the Church! But Ego and Pride got in the way, of COURSE! Instead of learning in humbleness what (may have) been done as a mistake, and receiving the message about how subtle and slick the Enemy can be (the same methods he used to DECEIVE Adam's wife...EVE)...oh no! ; Just HAD TO make it all about himself (Lindell). He's the one, in my opinion, who should be asking forgiveness and seeking God's cleansing from that very visible PUFFED -UP arrogance, pride (spiritual pride and otherwise), that has helped cause or bring SHAME to our Lord's Name! Lindell's immediate butt-hurt outburst sure didn't bring Jesus. Holy Name any Glory.... or show Christian "Brotherly Love" within the Body of Christ.... to the world! Not as far as I can tell anyways! But by NOT being "separate" from the world; by playing footsie with the world; by acting (and covertly) believing that the POWER of the GOSPEL, ALONE, is NOT ENOUGH.... that God somehow needs OUR help to "draw all men unto Himself", etc.....THAT IS the reason why most churches in America are nothing but stagnant, SHALLOW watering holes in this Truth-starved Desert Land. Christ said, "If I be lifted up, I will draw all men unto Myself". Instead, we've got pastors and sword swallowers, and forms of entertainment being lifted upto attract "numbers". .y stomach turns!

I am now approaching my 80th birthday and was blessed by God with a fair amount of male attractiveness. I spent many of those now 79 years in public areas of media and entertainment while also a Pentecostal, and later Charismatic, church member. Those years in the public eye and ear became a hazard to me because they led me into areas of temptation that I was too spiritually immature to make strong stands against. There is NOTHING in the human soul that is more inexorably powerful than the urge to copulate, and especially outside a sanctified relationship. Without yielding your mind, will, and emotions entirely to the Holy Spirit (the Lord Jesus by his example), a man ABSOLUTELY CANNOT resist that temptation. It took a long time and much sorrow over having repeatedly yielded to that urge and the anguish and grief it brought to those in my realm of influence that I was finally able to DIE TO MYSELF and yield my mind, will, and emotions totally to JESUS, my absolute Lord and master. DYING TO SELF IS THE ONLY WAY, and doing so is very difficult to learn. At nearly 80 years of age do I still experience those temptations? YES, ABSOLUTELY, but I learned about 30 years ago to DIE TO MYSELF, and since then new peace and assurance in my life THROUGH JESUS ALONE have sweetly ruled. You might find my autobiography "Because I've Seen His Glory" interesting and inspiring. Amazon has it.

A couple of thoughts to add. First thanks Robby for sharing and I love the prayer at the end. 1 Paul publicly rebuked Peter for a public thing he was doing which was only sitting with the Jews. (Showing partiality) 2. I think some christians wouldn’t mind a man taking off his shirt if it was in the right context. Example: if it was a play depicting Jesus being beaten and crucified. Everyone knows he was crucified naked (not that we should just have a naked man on the stage) but they seem a bit different. Still if the movie Passion of the Christ was played at the church, no one would say anything about them showing a movie with a shirtless man. Still i totally agree with the statement we need discernment because if our focus is getting off of Christ that’s terrible.

Judgment & correction DOES begin at the house of the Lord.... I pray not, (& I don't know this pastor or the church), but the phrase 'me thinks thou dost protest too much' comes to my thinking. Whether there is a deeper hidden sin or just the sin of pride itself, the Lord knows & our of Hous love He disciplines for our good & the 'good of the whole body' & that His Name/reputation/character is not dishonored or made a reproach.

Man, I grew up in the AG church and this disturbs me. I don’t see anything wrong with what Mark Driscoll did and your right Robbie, as a church (Gods people) we need to look within ourselves to insure that this wokness and any other unclean thing is removed from ourselves. Driscoll was right here and this could have actually turned into a revival at this convention, a moment of discovery and clarity for everyone at this convention. Hopefully Mr. Lindell will wake up and maybe, what Mark Driscoll did, will start to turn the church, back into the direction that it should be going. I ask myself the question, what did this incident ( the stripper) have to do with the glorification of God? It’s the exact opposite, it’s straight from the gates of hell. God will not be mocked, if it don’t look like God, it ain’t God, pure and simple. A perfect chance for restoration of the basic principles of the gospel could have happened at this conference and it didn’t because of someone’s ego, let’s pray that this will turn many people’s hearts in the right direction. I’m just saying, what if Mr. Lindell would have yielded to this incident and immediately took responsibility for this incident? If he had, perhaps the Holy Spirit would have blown the roof off of that place. Enough of the kicking bibles across the stage on Super Bowl Sunday and the trampolines in church! What are we doing? Nuff said.

Best for churches to be humble, be willing to receive correction and surrender to what the Lord wants to do. He may not want you to have circus acts and the balloons might need to leave the building 🎈.
