It's hard to believe that it's been almost 10 years since this book was written and it Changed my life then and re-reading along with the Bible drives me closer and closer to Jesus. I find it interesting that on the tenth anniversary of this book, Christian America has repented of many of the malodious deeds described in this book while becoming worse off in other areas. I am finding it interesting that America is heading back into the same political (Regan/Bush) and spiritual (confessions of shortcomings of popular televangelists) climate as in 1991. I feel like it's time again to re-read this book again and use the author's revelations and the Scriptures and fall on our knees and repent for the Corporate Church, War-Games, and Charismatic pep rallies we called Christianity instead of the local church Great Commission center the Church was commanded by Jesus to be.

5.0 out of 5 stars What the Church Needs Now is Fire, August 14, 2000

This review is from: Fresh Fire: When You Are Finally Serious About Power In The End Times (Paperback)

Fresh Fire is an explosive review of the Charasmatic Church in America in the 90's. Mr. Murillo skillfully reveals the 80's "wierdness" and how it has entered the Church. He explains our preoccupation with material things, empires, and public opinion. Many have employed "hyperfaith formulas", "quick fix snake oil", and "hollow entertainment" which tickle the uncommitted ears of most christians. Speakers are selling to naive listeners the error that they can have it all for nothing (but an offering to the speaker). There is a systematic unveiling of the false motives of leaders who are trapped in a maze of theological lies and misconceptions. As each lie is unmasked, an earnest plea is made to return to our Lord Jesus Christ and ask Him for a fresh holy fire to burn away the chaff of the past and lead us to a new revival. Much attention is given to bringing salvation and restoration to "Generation X". There is an urgent call going to the modern Charasmatic Church to repent or get out of the way. The message of this book is sure to set you ablaze with renewed committment to give your all to the Lord.

This review is from: Fresh Fire: When You Are Finally Serious About Power In The End Times (Paperback)

As a charismatic this is a book you're tempted to buy by the case for distribution to fellow charismatic Christians. The accuracy of the book was almost eerie beginning with examples of "malministry" that played out before my eyes. In the congregation I was in we actually had a Jewish-convert paraded before the congregation and thrown into the spotlight well before they were able to handle it resulting in the inevitable disillionment and disappearance. Murillo writes about these incidents and a similar one--gay converts being shown off as trophies--that again, is eerie. At the same time the book doesn't throw "the baby out with the bath water." He merely presents the abuses of "name it and claim it" and the woeful teaching that nothing bad will happen to you if your confessions are correct and your faith is high. For anyone who has had the charismatic experience and definitely for those who have recently had it, this is the second book you want to read after your Bible.
