CHRIS WICKLAND'S ADMISSION THAT HE IS A FALSE PROPHET

apology for an incorrect prophetic word

Here we have Chris Wickland's admission that he is a false prophet!

Wickland refers to a prophecy he delivered in 2023 in which he predicted a general election. He insists the prediction came from an all‑night dream and was not fabricated, claiming the word “uproar” repeated throughout. In the dream, Keir Starmer triggered a general election, resulting in a hung parliament and the physical collapse of the Houses of Parliament, followed by unrest in the streets. Wickland now concedes the obvious: Starmer did not call an early election, none of the predicted events occurred, and the prophecy failed in every detail. 

Wickland: "Obviously Keir Starmer did not trigger an early general election as I had seen it.. none of what I just said has happened at all." 

Wickland then misrepresents the prophetic ministry with reasoning that is incoherent and doctrinally unsound. He argues that evangelists, pastors, teachers, and even apostles may operate with success rates well below 100%, yet prophets alone are held to what he calls “pretty brutal standards”. By his own criteria, however, he concedes that he qualifies as a false prophet, since his record does not meet the standard he claims is unfairly imposed. His comments appear to be a response to sustained public criticism, and an attempt to justify his failed prediction. 

Wickland further promised that if the various prophetic words he had issued—many of which were due to expire within twelve months of 24 May 2024—did not come to pass, he would never deliver another prophetic word. The difficulty is obvious: the very prophecy for which he issued an apology did not come to pass, yet he treats this failure as if it does not fall under the terms of his own promise. After a year he announced that his “time of silence is now over” and resumed issuing prophecies, including those he claims to have received during the silence.1 It raises the obvious question: by what authority does anyone grant himself permission to suspend prophetic activity after a failed prediction and then resume it at will? In this further video, Wickland invoked the standard defence of false prophets—“we prophesy in part” (1 Corinthians 13:9)—as if limitation of scope implied tolerance for inaccuracy. The phrase refers to partial knowledge, not defective fulfilment. When taken out of context and used in this manner, this verse becomes an instrument for evading accountability, legitimising any utterance, and removing all constraints on prophetic speech (1 John 4:1). The biblical standard remains unchanged: first‑person prophetic declarations must be 100% accurate, and any failure constitutes false prophecy. Wickland's ecumenical posture only reinforces the disqualification.

Mike Bickle is a clear example of a false prophet employing the same rationale. He publicly taught that prophetic words do not need to be 100% accurate, proposing an approximate 80% accuracy threshold—a standard directly at odds with the biblical requirement of total precision in Deuteronomy 18. This rhetoric functions as an unbiblical escape mechanism, a way for false prophets to evade the biblical criteria and justify their continued authority despite demonstrable failure.

False prophecy is treated in scripture as a lie. (Jeremiah 27:15; Ezekiel 13:6-8). It is never treated as a minor error or something to be overlooked. In the Old Testament it carries the highest level of moral severity, including the death penalty, and operates as an automatic disqualification from any claim to divine authority. Neither the Old nor the New Testament permits any margin of error in prophetic speech; there is no biblical allowance for prophecy to be less than 100% accurate. The prophetic standard is total precision and total fidelity to Yahweh, without exception.

But the prophet who presumes to speak a word in my name that I have not commanded him to speak, or who speaks in the name of other gods, that same prophet shall die.’ (Deuteronomy 18:20).

“If a prophet or a dreamer of dreams arises among you and gives you a sign or a wonder, and the sign or wonder that he tells you comes to pass, and if he says, ‘Let us go after other gods,’ which you have not known, ‘and let us serve them,’ you shall not listen to the words of that prophet or that dreamer of dreams. For the Lord your God is testing you, to know whether you love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul. You shall walk after the Lord your God and fear him and keep his commandments and obey his voice, and you shall serve him and hold fast to him. But that prophet or that dreamer of dreams shall be put to death, because he has taught rebellion against the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt and redeemed you out of the house of slavery, to make you leave the way in which the Lord your God commanded you to walk. So you shall purge the evil from your midst. (Deuteronomy 13:1-5).

And the LORD said to me: “The prophets are prophesying lies in my name. I did not send them, nor did I command them or speak to them. They are prophesying to you a lying vision, worthless divination, and the deceit of their own minds. (Jeremiah 14:14).

Thus says the Lord of hosts: “Do not listen to the words of the prophets who prophesy to you, filling you with vain hopes. They speak visions of their own minds, not from the mouth of the Lord. They say continually to those who despise the word of the Lord, ‘It shall be well with you’; and to everyone who stubbornly follows his own heart, they say, ‘No disaster shall come upon you.’” For who among them has stood in the council of the Lord to see and to hear his word, or who has paid attention to his word and listened? Behold, the storm of the Lord! Wrath has gone forth, a whirling tempest; it will burst upon the head of the wicked. The anger of the Lord will not turn back until he has executed and accomplished the intents of his heart. In the latter days you will understand it clearly. “I did not send the prophets, yet they ran; I did not speak to them, yet they prophesied. But if they had stood in my council, then they would have proclaimed my words to my people, and they would have turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their deeds. “Am I a God at hand, declares the Lord, and not a God far away? Can a man hide himself in secret places so that I cannot see him? declares the Lord. Do I not fill heaven and earth? declares the Lord. I have heard what the prophets have said who prophesy lies in my name, saying, ‘I have dreamed, I have dreamed!’ How long shall there be lies in the heart of the prophets who prophesy lies, and who prophesy the deceit of their own heart, who think to make my people forget my name by their dreams that they tell one another, even as their fathers forgot my name for Baal? Let the prophet who has a dream tell the dream, but let him who has my word speak my word faithfully. What has straw in common with wheat? declares the Lord. Is not my word like fire, declares the Lord, and like a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces? Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets, declares the Lord, who steal my words from one another. Behold, I am against the prophets, declares the Lord, who use their tongues and declare, ‘declares the Lord.’ Behold, I am against those who prophesy lying dreams, declares the Lord, and who tell them and lead my people astray by their lies and their recklessness, when I did not send them or charge them. So they do not profit this people at all, declares the Lord. (Jeremiah 23:16-32).

The word of the Lord came to me: “Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel, who are prophesying, and say to those who prophesy from their own hearts: ‘Hear the word of the Lord!’ Thus says the Lord God, Woe to the foolish prophets who follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing! Your prophets have been like jackals among ruins, O Israel. You have not gone up into the breaches, or built up a wall for the house of Israel, that it might stand in battle in the day of the Lord. They have seen false visions and lying divinations. They say, ‘Declares the Lord,’ when the Lord has not sent them, and yet they expect him to fulfill their word. Have you not seen a false vision and uttered a lying divination, whenever you have said, ‘Declares the Lord,’ although I have not spoken?” Therefore thus says the Lord God: “Because you have uttered falsehood and seen lying visions, therefore behold, I am against you, declares the Lord God. My hand will be against the prophets who see false visions and who give lying divinations. They shall not be in the council of my people, nor be enrolled in the register of the house of Israel, nor shall they enter the land of Israel. And you shall know that I am the Lord God. (Ezekiel 13:1-9).

And her prophets have smeared whitewash for them, seeing false visions and divining lies for them, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD,’ when the LORD has not spoken. (Ezekiel 22:28).

The New Testament presents false prophets as deceptive figures who infiltrate the church under a veneer of legitimacy, producing corrupt fruit and leading believers astray. Jesus warns that many will arise, some performing signs designed to mislead (Matthew 7; 24; Mark 13). Acts identifies false prophecy as active opposition to the gospel, while 2 Peter describes false prophets and false teachers as introducing destructive heresies and denying Christ. John commands believers to test every spirit because many false prophets have gone out into the world, and Revelation portrays the false prophet as a figure who uses signs to promote idolatry and moral corruption. Across these texts, the New Testament maintains a unified standard: false prophets are recognised by deception, doctrinal distortion, corrupt conduct, and the production of counterfeit spiritual authority.

Cei Dewar’s recent affirmation of Wickland is reckless and unbiblical. He charged the congregation to trust Wickland even when his actions or statements appear contradictory, insisting they stand with “this man of God” regardless of what they see or understand. His declaration that Wickland is hearing a divine voice others cannot hear—and is leading them toward “purpose” and “promise” even when the situation resembles a wilderness—functions as a cultish unconditional loyalty demand, not a biblical test of prophecy or leadership.2

Given the evidence previously outlined, I identify Chris Wickland and his associates as NAR‑aligned false teachers, exhibiting the characteristic markers of that movement and the recognisable traits of false prophets and teachers to mark and avoid (Romans 16:17-18).

How to Identify False Teachers (12 Biblical Marks)

CEI DEWAR'S SUPPORT FOR FALSE PROPHET CHRIS WICKLAND

Life in the wilderness by Bishop Cei Dewar

..while evil people and impostors will go on from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. (2 Timothy 3:13).

Cei Dewar’s unwavering endorsement of Chris Wickland is deeply concerning. His insistence that the congregation trust “this man of God” without testing the spirits is not merely irresponsible—it is alarming.

Before identifying the concern, I will briefly address Dewar’s assertion that “when the priest’s garment is torn, the priesthood has left him." This claim has no textual grounding in the Old Testament and represents pure eisegesis. No Old Testament passage states that tearing priestly garments removes the office. In the Torah, tearing the high priest’s clothing is a prohibited act, not a ritual signal of disqualification. The high‑priestly robe is explicitly constructed so that “it will not be torn” (Exodus 28), and priests—especially the high priest—are forbidden to tear their garments (Leviticus 10:6; 21:10). A torn garment therefore indicates violation of priestly sanctity, not loss of priestly status. Caiaphas’ action in Matthew 26 follows rabbinic courtroom custom, not Mosaic law. The tearing signaled a judicial declaration of blasphemy, a conventional expression of outrage and condemnation. In doing so, he simultaneously broke the very prohibition binding the high priest, making his act unlawful rather than symbolic of priesthood transfer. Christ’s resurrection inaugurated a heavenly priesthood that was not yet manifested on earth; the high priest’s earthly office did not end through his own unlawful act. Theologically, the Levitical priesthood concluded at the cross (Hebrews 7-10). Historically, it ceased with the destruction of the temple in AD 70 (Matthew 24:2; Daniel 9:26-27). Since that point, no functioning Levitical priesthood has existed.

Dewar: "God sets up a man of God in the Old Testament to say 'I will show you where to follow'. And in the New Covenant brings him into a relationship that now says, 'Don't just follow me. walk with me'. ...today I charge you in the name of God to stand when nobody else will stand with this man of God. When you don't understand why he's saying what he's saying or doing what he's doing that you charged in the name of God will trust this man is listening to the voice that I do not hear and leading us to the place of purpose, to the place of promise, even when it looks like we're stuck in the wilderness, because Israel would have got through the wilderness a whole lot quicker had they just trusted the one God put to lead them through. How many seasons of our lives have been delayed or lengthened simply because we did not obey an instruction from a man of God."  

This is the stuff of cults! 

Dewar effectively argues that allegiance to the “man of God” should outrank allegiance to Christ. His model suppresses critical discernment, removes the believer’s right to test Wickland’s extravagant claims, and elevates trust in a self‑appointed prophet above the authority of scripture. In doing so, both men displace the role of the Holy Spirit and encroach upon the prerogatives of Christ Himself.

The Man of God syndrome is the Moses Model

There is no textual or historical basis for any pastor or leader to appropriate the title "the man of God" as an exclusive, elevated status over fellow elders. Such self‑designation reflects an inflated view of one’s own authority and aligns with the arrogance scripture explicitly warns against (Romans 12:3; Galatians 6:3). A leader who adopts titles of superiority demonstrates a disposition incompatible with legitimate pastoral responsibility (Matthew 23:8).

In contemporary usage, "man of God" has shifted to describe a self‑appointed apostle, prophet, or pastor who operates without meaningful accountability. This figure claims special powers—healing, predicting the future, or functioning as the exclusive conduit of divine blessing—and becomes someone the congregation fears and reveres. In some cases he is treated as the sole channel through which God acts, a posture that edges toward functional worship

The contemporary “man of God” posture reflects a Moses‑style leadership model that has no relevance for New Testament ecclesiology. The Old Testament used "man of God" as a generic designation for prophets and divine messengers—applied to figures such as Moses, Samuel, Elijah, and Elisha, as well as unnamed prophetic voices (e.g., 1 Kings 13; 20:28). In the New Testament, Paul applies the term to Timothy (1 Timothy 6:11) as a minister of the gospel, a usage that extends naturally to all faithful ministers and, by extension, all faithful believers.

Biblical leadership remains accountable and subject to rebuke and correction. A plurality of elders is required to ensure mutual oversight. Where humility and teachability are present, a healthy church is more likely to emerge. A leader confronted with concerns does not pull rank but examines himself honestly to determine whether the charge has merit. Where this posture is absent, the system becomes authoritarian and predictably collapses, leaving many exposed to spiritual harm.

I have already demonstrated in earlier posts that Wickland is a proven false prophet. He is openly ecumenical, and scripture instructs believers to mark and avoid such men (Romans 16:17-18). The clearest example is his failed “prophetic vision” for the UK delivered on 31 July 2022, built on Joshua 1, in which he announced an imminent national “shift”. None of the predicted outcomes—the disappearance of major denominations, the collapse of the liberal left, the breakdown of economic systems, or the fall of the government—has occurred in any identifiable or concrete form.1 

Dewar presents himself as "a voice for the historic Gospel of Jesus Christ", adopting a fatherly authority and a manufactured moral gravity that relies heavily on emotional appeal. His sermons are theatrical, yet his claims are inaccurate, unscriptural, and collapse under straightforward textual examination. He is part of a group called The Five Fathers, who lead online prayer for the United Kingdom on Sunday evenings. Dewar serves as a missionary bishop in the Confessing Anglican Church (CAC), attached to the Missionary Diocese of Providence (UK). His public ministry is branded through CAC platforms and media appearances, where he advances a politically charged form of Christianity described by mainstream reporting as militant and confrontational. The CAC functions as a small, independent Anglican jurisdiction outside the historic Anglican Communion, and Dewar’s role reflects a self‑contained ecclesial identity rather than recognised Anglican oversight. The movement has gained traction in the vacuum created by the Church of England’s failures and the current political climate; however, its theological foundations are questionable.

I recommend John Collins’ Leaving the Message material, which provides valuable analysis and practical lessons drawn from the corrupt Branhamism cult and the subsequent development of the New Apostolic Reformation.

Collins: "Leaving the Message is a project of William Branham Historical Research, critically examining William Marrion Branham (a.k.a. William Marvin Branham, 1907–1965), a Pentecostal revivalist and doomsday prophet whose teachings gave rise to authoritarian cults and spiritual abuse. We trace his influence into N.A.R., Latter Rain, Word of Faith, and Deliverance ministries."

But I am afraid that as the serpent deceived Eve by his cunning, your thoughts will be led astray from a sincere and pure devotion to Christ. (2 Corinthians 11:3).

1. WOLVES IN SHEEP'S CLOTHING: FALSE PROPHETS AND BIBLE TEACHERS IN THE LAST DAYS: CHRIS WICKLAND: 2022 FAILED "PROPHETIC VISION"

CHRIS WICKLAND DECLARES NIGEL FARAGE AS “A NEW CYRUS”

Nigel Farage?

Here is another a prophetic word from Chris Wickland in which he declares that Nigel Farage will be our next Prime Minister and will usher in a new era for Britain.

Wickland’s record already identifies him as a proven false prophet. His repeated first‑person declarations allegedly from the Lord are deeply concerning, particularly for those who accept them uncritically. A claim of this kind cannot be meaningfully tested, as it lacks any time‑specific criteria. What we can assess is his prior track record, which is unreliable. Wickland’s latest diatribe on 26 September 2026, titled 'It’s now too late', makes no reference at all to his earlier prediction that Nigel Farage would become Prime Minister—a conspicuous omission that directly undermines the coherence of his prior claim.1  

The Old Testament gives some valuable pointers about true and false prophecy.

But the prophet who presumes to speak a word in my name that I have not commanded him to speak, or who speaks in the name of other gods, that same prophet shall die.’ And if you say in your heart, ‘How may we know the word that the Lord has not spoken?’— when a prophet speaks in the name of the Lord, if the word does not come to pass or come true, that is a word that the Lord has not spoken; the prophet has spoken it presumptuously. You need not be afraid of him. (Deuteronomy 18:20-22).

A true prophecy must occur exactly as spoken; one failure is decisive. Deuteronomy 13:1-5 adds that even accurate predictions are invalidated if the prophet promotes syncretism or any departure from exclusive loyalty to Yahweh. Wickland’s ecumenical stance directly contradicts biblical fidelity, and ecumenism is incompatible with genuine prophetic authority. A true prophet of God cannot be ecumenical. In addition, authentic prophecy never contradicts scripture. The Old Testament consistently marks corruption, manipulation, self‑promotion, and reckless speech as indicators of false prophecy (Jeremiah 23; Ezekiel 13). Genuine prophecy is concrete and falsifiable; vague, open‑ended predictions do not meet the biblical standard. Wickland’s pronouncements therefore align with the classic profile of presumptuous speech rather than authentic prophetic authority. 

Wickland: "This prophetic word is called 'Nigel Farage?'. It came to me on the 12th of February 2025. Psalm 8:6 is the base text or the meditation text: 'Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet'. And this is what I believe uh the Lord gave to me today. 'There are times and there are epochs and there are eras. The new era for Britain is coming. One that will change everything for this nation. In the days of great darkness the burning lamps of churches will again shine throughout this land indeed My church will be needed required and instrumental in the years ahead for this nation and indeed the nations. I am raising up a man for this time for this coming season to usher in the new era for this nation. Before I raise him up chaos, chaos everywhere will ensue. Your current leader is going to wreck and destroy this nation, but in part I've allowed this as a sign of my chastisement to this wicked nation. I will show all firsthand what foolish evil half-thought through ideologies will do to this nation and the common man. It will become so stark and abhorrent that many will turn their backs on the new communism of the hour. Many will wake up in the days ahead and come to their senses finally. In that moment of chaos I'll be raising up a whole plethora of persons to help shape this nation into something both formidable and stable I will be raising political leaders, economic leaders, spiritual leaders, to have a strong voice to bring order to the ensuing chaos that is about to be unleashed upon your land over the next several years. I am raising one man. A man for the hour. One who is a strong voice at this time, but a voice I'll make so loud in the days ahead. I'm going to break your politics and your political machine. I'm going to smash it with my right hand. Your two party politics is over for a time. For I have a man that I am raising up and his party will come to power despite all the odds. But he will not come to power just yet. First there will be chaos and ruin within the parliamentary system. It will fall topple and collapse. Then this man will bring his reform to this nation and he will finally achieve his dream of being prime minister in that hour. But there is still a way to go before that hour comes. Much trouble is coming first, and then the fall of parliament. I'm going to give this man great favor, especially within my church. For in the hour of devastation to come, he will be seen as a man of common sense, whereas now the reformer is still seen as divisive and contentious. I will put around the leader of the reform many mighty and wonderful people. Yes there will be the usual suspects, but I will surround him with my choice of leaders. Some of those will be political; some from the street, that is not from the political class; and others from the best of their fields. When he comes to power it will be to rebuild everything from scratch. I'll give him tremendous wisdom through the people I surround him with for that day and that hour. Although his reign will not be a long one, nevertheless he will be my instrument, a Cyrus even, for that hour to help get this nation off her knees and back to a place of strength and dignity. Lo watch and see for here comes the reformer and watch his trail blaze across the heavens."

A true prophecy is correct in every detail. Wickland specifically declared, in the first person of God: "Your current leader is going to wreck and destroy this nation". This is demonstrably false. He was referring to Keir Starmer, who was Prime Minister at the time of the prophecy on 12 February 2025. Starmer did not “wreck and destroy” the nation, and he did not even remain in office; Andy Burnham succeeded him on 20 July 2026. The statement is therefore both inaccurate and contradicted by subsequent events.

Casting Farage in a Cyrus role simply repeats the Trump‑as‑Cyrus narrative promoted by NAR prophets in the United States. The parallels are obvious: the same political messianism, the same selective proof‑texting, and the same attempt to sacralise a political figure through an Old Testament template.

False parallels with Old Testament passages. The context of Psalm 8:6.

O Lord, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your glory above the heavens.
Out of the mouth of babies and infants,
you have established strength because of your foes,
to still the enemy and the avenger.
When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars, which you have set in place,
what is man that you are mindful of him,
and the son of man that you care for him?
Yet you have made him a little lower than the heavenly beings
and crowned him with glory and honor.
You have given him dominion over the works of your hands;
you have put all things under his feet,*
all sheep and oxen,
and also the beasts of the field,
the birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea, whatever passes along the paths of the seas.
O Lord, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!

*Cited in 1 Corinthians 15:27 and Hebrews 2:6-8 

Wickland’s use of Psalm 8:6 is a false parallel. The psalm speaks of humanity in general, not a specific political figure, and its purpose is to praise the majesty of the Lord and His creation. To repurpose this text as a prophetic template for a contemporary political individual is a distortion of its context. The presumption involved in redirecting a doxological psalm toward a partisan application is inappropriate; treating it as a cipher for a modern leader is effectively sacrilegious.

This pattern recurs with Wickland. His alleged “prophetic vision” for the UK delivered four years ago on the 31st of July 2022 titled 'The Seasons are Shifting' was again built on an improvised use of an Old Testament passage—Joshua 1 in that instance—showing the same tendency to force contemporary political narratives into borrowed biblical frameworks.

Wickland 2022: "What I felt God is saying is 'The clock is about to change and it (the church) is now on the threshold of a the next hour..'  We are about to come into a new hour, a new season.. 'Moses my servant is dead..'  the old ways of doing stuff is about to become utterly obsolete in ways that are shocking.. In the first day of the autumn of this year, the clock will change into the next hour..2 

I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naive. (Romans 16:17-18).

But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction. (2 Peter 2:1)

Thus says the Lord of hosts: “Do not listen to the words of the prophets who prophesy to you, filling you with vain hopes. They speak visions of their own minds, not from the mouth of the Lord. (Jeremiah 23:16).

CHRIS WICKLAND: 2022 FAILED "PROPHETIC VISION"

THE SEASONS ARE SHIFTING

Below is a refutation of Chris Wickland's failed prophetic vision for the UK given on 31st of July 2022 based on Joshua 1.

After the death of Moses the servant of the Lord, the Lord said to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses’ assistant, “Moses my servant is dead. Now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, you and all this people, into the land that I am giving to them, to the people of Israel. Every place that the sole of your foot will tread upon I have given to you, just as I promised to Moses. From the wilderness and this Lebanon as far as the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites to the Great Sea toward the going down of the sun shall be your territory. No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life. Just as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not leave you or forsake you. Be strong and courageous, for you shall cause this people to inherit the land that I swore to their fathers to give them. Only be strong and very courageous, being careful to do according to all the law that Moses my servant commanded you. Do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may have good success wherever you go. This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success. Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” (Joshua 1:1-9).

Anyone issuing sweeping prophetic declarations claimed to be from the Lord should be treated with extreme caution. This pattern is a standard tactic of false prophets: dramatic announcements that collapse into nothing. Scripture instructs us to test the spirits, yet many within the church neglect this basic discernment (1 John 4:1).

Wickland: "What I felt God is saying is 'The clock is about to change and it (the church) is now on the threshold of a the next hour..'  We are about to come into a new hour, a new season.. 'Moses my servant is dead..'  the old ways of doing stuff is about to become utterly obsolete in ways that are shocking."  

Wickland begins his dubious prophecy by inserting an improvised scenario in which the Israelites supposedly questioned Joshua’s legitimacy because he had not performed “signs and wonders”. This is drivel. The biblical narrative makes Joshua’s appointment explicit and public; Israel was fully informed that he was God’s designated successor. 

Immediate Literary Context (Numbers 27:15–23)

Facing his impending death outside the land (Numbers 27:12–14), Moses pleads: “May the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation” (v 16). Yahweh answers: “Take Joshua son of Nun, a man in whom is the Spirit, and lay your hand on him” (v 18). Moses obeys publicly: “He laid his hands on him and commissioned him, as the LORD had instructed through Moses” (v 23). The passage therefore grounds Joshua’s selection in divine decree, Spirit-endowment, and the symbolic transfer of authority.

The biblical narrative presents Joshua—Moses’ assistant—as the clear and publicly recognized successor who would lead Israel into the land in fulfilment of God's promises. After Moses’ death, the Lord explicitly confirms Joshua’s appointment. His role is established by divine command, Spirit‑endowment, and formal transfer of authority. The narrative consistently highlights Joshua’s proven character, fidelity, and integrity, marking him as the legitimate heir to Moses’ leadership and mission. This passage affirms that God’s promises to Israel did not end with Moses. The entry into Canaan marked a new phase, but it remained a direct continuation of the same covenantal trajectory already established.   

Wickland: "In the first day of the autumn of this year, the clock will change into the next hour... There's something coming that's going to make the church real and stagger with shock and what's coming is you're going to see a lot of church in the next two years a lot of the established churches or great denominations are going to vanish they're just simply going to vanish. Why is this? Because as Moses said to Pharaoh let my people go.. 

with it will cut much change and much consternation and you're going to see some things that are going to happen to this nation economically that are just going to leave most Christians reeling and staggering in shock "

A false prophecy would not be complete without a declaration: "I declare to 'stonewall' in the name of Jesus that you are coming down..  and I prophesy to you right now and I declare to you in the name of Jesus that you 'stonewall' are coming down and you will be ground to powder and you will never rise again..  The agenda of the highly liberal left will collapse and fall in these days, the economical systems of our land are going to fall in these days  the government of our land is going to fall in these days.. "  

A false prophecy would not be complete without prophesied national revival and revival of false churches.

Wickland asserts a coming unity between Roman Catholics, Protestants, and Orthodox Christians—a unity that will allegedly “surpass theology". This is a textbook marker of apostasy. Scripture commands doctrinal fidelity (2 Timothy 1:13), and there can be no ecumenical “unity” with denominations that reject apostolic teaching.

The notion of a church “Golden Age” is a delusion. The modern postmillennial claim—that the church will transform the world and usher in a global era of righteousness before Christ returns—is neither recognizable in the present world nor defensible from scripture. It exists only in the imaginative projections of those who promote it.

It has now been four years since these claims were made. Wickland’s prophetic “shift" has evaporated. None of the asserted outcomes — the disappearance of major denominations, the collapse of the liberal left, the breakdown of economic systems, or the fall of the government — has materialised in any concrete form.

This places Wickland squarely in the category of a demonstrated false prophet. Constructing unwarranted parallels and inventing unbiblical Old Testament scenarios—rather than adhering to the prophetic texts themselves — is a hallmark of false prophecy. Scripture provides a defined framework for eschatological events, and Wickland's claims fall outside it.

According to the scriptures apostasy will increase in the last days.

Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by devoting themselves to deceitful spirits and teachings of demon, (1 Timothy 4:1).

But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people. (2 Timothy 3:1-5).

And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. (Matthew 24:12).

Let no one deceive you in any way. For that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction.. (2 Thessalonians 2:3).

Mark and avoid false prophets

I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naive. (Romans 16:17-18).

But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction. (2 Peter 2:1)

Thus says the Lord of hosts: “Do not listen to the words of the prophets who prophesy to you, filling you with vain hopes. They speak visions of their own minds, not from the mouth of the Lord. (Jeremiah 23:16).

CHRIS WICKLAND'S REPEATED "WORDS FROM GOD"

 Lessons From Ann Widdecombe. A Tribute

Chris Wickland: "I felt that God said to me, 'Very soon you are going to be known as the Tommy Robinson of the far right and you are going to split Christendom right down the middle.'"

Tommy Robinson, a high‑profile far‑right figure, has recently begun describing himself as a Christian. Pastor Rikki Doolan says Robinson “came to Christ” while in prison after conversations with a chaplain about the Gospel. Even so, substantial doubts remain about what Robinson actually believes and how — or whether — those beliefs shape his public conduct. Critics argue that his deployment of Christian language and imagery in political contexts appears instrumental rather than devotional, raising questions about sincerity and motive. In short, although Robinson now identifies as Christian, the substance of his faith and its relationship to his activism continue to be contested.

Chris Wickland's frequent alleged “words from God” display a consistent pattern: they centre on his own status, his projected achievements, and the exceptional things God is supposedly planning to accomplish through him. This exemplifies the Pentecostal NAR tendency toward inflated self‑importance and manufactured divine endorsement, where “revelations” function as a mechanism for personal glorification rather than any credible spiritual insight.

In this video Wickland focuses on Ann Widdecombe inflating her into a supposed Christian martyr. Ann Widdecombe was Roman Catholic. I have nothing to say against her personally, except to point out that Roman Catholicism is not biblical Christianity.

There are numerous issues within the RCC. If the foundational, biblical doctrine of faith is not recognised, then whatever principles we claim or whatever causes we defend do not constitute true faith. The doctrine itself holds primacy; without it, all secondary commitments are structurally irrelevant.

The five solas laid down by the Reformers sum up the core tenets of orthodox faith:

* Sola gratia (by grace alone): Salvation is a gift from God, not earned by human effort. (Ephesians 2:8-9). 
* Solus Christus (on the basis of Christ alone): Christ's work is the only basis for justification. (John 14:6).  
* Sola fide (through the means of faith alone): We are justified by faith in Christ. (Romans 3:28).

* Soli Deo gloria (to the ultimate glory of God alone): All glory belongs to God. (1 Corinthians 10:31).
* Sola Scriptura (as taught with the final and decisive authority of Scripture alone): The Bible is the ultimate authority. (2 Timothy 3:16-17).

In addition to the RCC's heretical understanding of justification and salvation, several of their beliefs and practices are incompatible with biblical faith.

* The RCC replaces Sola Scriptura with the authority of the Papacy and Papal infallibility. (Colossians 1:18).
* Veneration of the saints and the assumption of Mary is blasphemous.
* In Protestant theology, only baptism and the Lord’s Supper are recognized as sacraments instituted by Christ. The RCC has added five further sacraments: Confirmation, Penance, Anointing of the Sick, Holy Orders, and Matrimony. The RCC views sacraments as necessary channels of grace administered by the church, whereas Protestants view grace as a gift received directly through faith in Christ.
* The RC unbiblical concept of purgatory and indulgences lacks scriptural basis.

According to Roman Catholicism, the seven sacraments, allegedly instituted by Christ, are outward signs that confer inward grace: Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist, Reconciliation (aka. Confession and Penance), Anointing of the Sick, Holy Orders, and Matrimony. The core issue is straightforward: scripture recognises only one source of grace — Christ Himself — and that grace is received directly, not mediated or generated through baptism, confirmation, or the eucharist. Any system that assigns sacramental channels of grace contradicts the biblical structure of faith. Likewise, believers do not require a priest to pronounce absolution in Christ’s name, nor do they need to perform penance; forgiveness is received directly from Christ Himself. (1 John 1:9). By inserting sacramental intermediaries, the Roman Catholic Church positions itself as a mediator between Christ and believers, effectively displacing the direct relationship scripture establishes between Christ and His church.

The onus upon true Christian teachers is to reprove the RCC for their heresies, not to fraternize with them!

For if someone comes and proclaims another Jesus than the one we proclaimed, or if you receive a different spirit from the one you received, or if you accept a different gospel from the one you accepted, you put up with it readily enough. (2 Corinthians 11:4).

CHRIS WICKLAND: RESISTANCE AND REVIVAL?

Time For Christians To Resist?

Chris Wickland recently came to my attention following the public reaction against King Charles III’s revised formulation of his role — retaining “Defender of the Faith” while also presenting himself as a "protector of faith within Britain’s multi‑faith society". Wickland’s subsequent protest outside Windsor Castle and his call for Christians to "resist", has prompted me to spend some time reviewing his teaching.1 This has left me with several concerns. I have included links at the end of this post that expand on the points summarized below.

Wickland is the pastor of Living Word Church in Titchfield and Bridgemary, Hampshire. A Pentecostal minister, he centres his work on prayer and revival. He presents himself as having a "prophetic" ministry and is active in the Living Word Church Network, an initiative aimed at planting churches across the south coast of England.

"Living Word Church Network is not a denomination but we hold to Pentecostal teachings. We believe in the Four Square gospel, also known as the Full Gospel. That is Jesus as Saviour, Jesus as Healer, Jesus as Baptiser and Jesus as soon coming King."2  

Red Flags

> The term “Four Square Gospel” originated with false teacher Aimee Semple McPherson during a 1922 sermon in Oakland and later shaped the identity of the Foursquare Church she founded in Los Angeles in 1923. Although the name is presented as drawing on biblical imagery of completeness from Exodus, Ezekiel, and Revelation, its doctrinal framing and historical associations are not something I would choose to identify with. 

> Wickland is ecumenical. Ecumenism treats doctrinal non‑negotiables as expendable in order to fabricate the appearance of unity. Anyone who does not abide in the teaching of Christ does not have God. (2 John 1:9).

> "Chris and Tracy Wickland and Congregational Pastors are Colin and Monique Gallaugher." Egalitarianism is unbiblical! 

> Wickland’s affirms the “five‑fold ministry”. The "five-fold ministry" is historically rooted in Latter Rain and Dominion Theology and was later absorbed into NAR hyper‑charismatic systems, where it functions as an extrabiblical, top‑down authority pyramid imposed on the church. The Greek of Ephesians 4:11–13 does not justify establishing a fixed, hierarchical five‑office governance model for contemporary church structures.

> Wickland asserts that biblical Tarshish should be identified with the United Kingdom and he uses that claim to argue that Ezekiel 38:13 places the UK outside the scope of Antichrist authority. The consensus amongst commentators is that Tarshish was located in the western Mediterranean, possibly Spain. It was known for its ships and trade. (Jonah 1:3; Isaiah 23:1). The mention of "all its villages" implies a network of trading communities.

 

Sheba and Dedan and the merchants of Tarshish with all its villages will ask, ‘Have you come to capture the plunder? Have you assembled your hordes to carry away loot, to make off with silver and gold, to take cattle and, to seize great spoil?’ (Ezekiel 38:13).

> There are several problems with the claim that Gog in Ezekiel 38-39 is the Antichrist. Those who teach that the Antichrist will be Islamic are in error for several reasons. One striking difference is that the Antichrist will be thrown alive into the lake of fire (Revelation 19:20), whereas Gog will fall and be killed on the mountains of Israel. (Ezekiel 39:4). 

> Wickland highlights reports of the Euphrates River drying up and connects this phenomenon to end‑time prophecy. This cannot serve as an eschatological indicator, since Revelation places the drying of the river within the bowl judgments—in other words, the Euphrates must still be present prior to that moment. The Euphrates has fluctuated for centuries. Modern fluctuations arise from dam systems, irrigation demands, and regional climate pressures. Treating contemporary water scarcity as prophetic fulfilment reflects interpretive error rather than responsible exegesis. Revelation 16:12 is an explicit prophecy, describing the river’s supernatural drying to prepare the way for the kings from the East and to initiate the gathering at Armageddon. (Revelation 16:12–16). Other passages—Isaiah 11:15, Jeremiah 50:38, and Jeremiah 51:36—use the image of the river’s drying symbolically to express judgment, desolation, and God’s sovereignty over nations.

> Wickland is an admirer of Charles Fox Parham. He recounts that, after praying about entering Pentecostal ministry, he interpreted the passing of a Parham‑branded bus as divine confirmation. This kind of interpretive reflex is characteristic of hypercharismatic spirituality. Anyone familiar with the documented history of Pentecostalism recognizes Parham as a racist and a cult leader.

John Collins: "Charles Fox Parham, often credited as a founding figure of Pentecostalism, was deeply entangled with fraud schemes, racial ideology, and extremist theology that shaped both his ministry and his legacy. His promotion of British Israelism, segregation, and apocalyptic communal experiments reveals a movement rooted not only in revivalism but also in white supremacy and exploitation."3  

> Wickland's recurring accounts of visions, angelic visitations, revelatory dreams and "words from the Lord", are, by definition, unverifiable.4  I have heard numerous similar narratives from figures such as Jesse Duplantis, Benny Hinn, Sid Roth etc. I treat such claims as non‑credible and categorize their proponents as individuals to be marked and avoided. (Romans 16:17-18). I have no doubt that the Lord can disclose things to His people, but such claims require testing. (1 John 4:1). I do not see that discipline operating within Pentecostal/charismatic environments.

Revival?

Wickland: "In 2018, I believe God gave me a significant prophetic word concerning the downfall of Theresa May, the unfolding of Brexit, and the restoration of some of Britain’s ancient spiritual paths, including the revival of monastic communities. Since then, I have received further prophetic insights regarding a coming revival. These speak of a move of God in the UK that will blend the ancient with the modern, that calls us to return to the old, sacred paths of Britain in order to safeguard our spiritual future."5

Monastic communities were never grounded in biblical practice, and any proposed blend of “ancient and modern sacred paths" is, at minimum, highly suspect.

Claims of a "great end-time revival" are extra-biblical constructions, not exegetical conclusions. The claim that scripture teaches an end‑time revival is unfounded; the biblical text provides no explicit support for such a doctrine. The dominant New Testament pattern points in the opposite direction: intensifying deception, apostasy, and judgment as the age closes. When challenged, Wickland simply goes into denial and presses on with his "revival" message regardless. 

Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake. And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end will be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come. (Matthew 14:9-14).

But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, 4treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people. For among them are those who creep into households and capture weak women, burdened with sins and led astray by various passions, 7always learning and never able to arrive at a knowledge of the truth. Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these men also oppose the truth, men corrupted in mind and disqualified regarding the faith. 9But they will not get very far, for their folly will be plain to all, as was that of those two men. (2 Timothy 1-8).

Is the rapture an afterthought?

Living Word holds a non‑replacement, premillennial position and rejects the pre‑tribulation rapture. These beliefs offer a corrective to erroneous frameworks such as amillennialism, postmillennialism, and the pretribulation rapture. However, Wickland's eschatology is problematic. He focuses on the resurrection of the dead, describing the rapture as an "afterthought".  

Wickland: "It is always the unrighteous being removed from the righteous not the righteous being removed from the unrighteous".  He refers to "one taken one left" This teaching is primarily located in Matthew 24:40-41 and Luke 17:34-36. These passages are often associated with the concept of the rapture, a future event where believers in Christ are taken up to meet the Lord in the air, as described in 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17.  In this view, those "taken" are the righteous who are gathered to Christ, while those "left" are the unrighteous who remain for judgment. The minority interpretation suggest that those "taken" are those taken in judgment, akin to the removal of the wicked in the days of Noah and Lot, while those "left" are the righteous who remain to inherit the earth. Wickland claims the Aramaic version of the New Testament implies a negative. The New Testament was primarily written in Greek with the earliest manuscripts being Greek. Although the Aramaic tradition is historically meaningful, it is not regarded as the original form of the text but as a translation derived from the Greek. The Greek manuscripts remain the most authoritative and widely accepted. When someone steps outside the primary textual witnesses to make a doctrinal point, it usually signals that the argument is being forced rather than grounded.

Noah was "taken" (he was delivered) in the arc before the wicked were destroyed. Similarly Lot was rescued by the angels before God's judgement fell on Sodom and Gomorrah. The Greek verbs paralambanō and aphiēmi support the consensus that those “taken” are gathered together by the angels for deliverance. (Matthew 24:31). paralambanō (to receive near, i.e. associate with oneself (in any familiar or intimate act or relation)"6  In this context, ἀφίημι is to 'leave alone'. The parable of the ten virgins also affirms that five are taken for deliverance and that five are left for judgement. (Matthew 25:10-12).

Bengels Gnomen: "Matthew 24:40,[1065] 41. Παραλαμβάνεται, is taken[1066]) sc. into safety, under protection; see Matthew 24:31.—ἀφίεται, is left) sc. in the midst of the dangers, whatever may occur.[1067]" 7

But we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about those who are asleep, that you may not grieve as others do who have no hope. For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep. For this we declare to you by a word from the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord. Therefore encourage one another with these words. (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18).

Wickland's appears to believe the classic postribulation view which is problematic.8 The underlying issue is straightforward: believers accompany the Lord at Armageddon, which presupposes that their resurrection has previously occurred.

And this is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose nothing of all that he has given me, but raise it up on the last day. For this is the will of my Father, that everyone who looks on the Son and believes in him should have eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.” (John 6:39-40, 44,54).

Posttrib interpreters correctly note that believers are raised on “the last day” (John 6:39–40) and equate this with Paul’s “last trumpet” in 1 Corinthians 15:52. The flaw is the assumption that Paul’s “last trumpet” corresponds to the seventh‑angel trumpet of Revelation 11:15. Revelation was not yet written when Paul composed his letters; therefore he cannot be referencing that later apocalyptic sequence. The more coherent textual link is Matthew 24:31, where the trumpet sounds immediately after the tribulation and marks the close of the age while still preceding the outpouring of divine wrath—the Day of the Lord.

Many interpreters fail to distinguish between tribulation (thlipsis) and wrath (orgé) in the book of Revelation. This distinction is exegetically indispensable. Thlipsis refers to the persecution unleashed by the Antichrist—the great tribulation (Matthew 24:21), whereas orgé denotes the outpouring of God’s wrath during the day of the Lord. Believers are explicitly informed that they are not appointed to wrath. (1 Thessalonians 5:9).

Revelation 6 makes this sequence clear: the day of the Lord begins only after the cosmic disturbances that follow the breaking of the sixth seal. (Revelation 6:12–14). This moment is defined by the declaration, For the great day of Their wrath has come, and who is able to withstand it? (Revelation 6:17). On this basis, prewrath interpreters argue that the rapture occurs between the sixth and seventh seals of Revelation. 

Several early documents including the Didache, Justin Martyr, and Tertullian confirm a prewrath rapture. The Didache specifically teaches that the Antichrist will appear prior to Christ’s return, at which point Christ will raise the righteous and deliver the faithful who have survived the tribulation from the divine judgment associated with the day of the Lord.9 

I have written a number of posts on this subject from a prewrath perspective. I also recommend Alan Kurschner's articles that specifically reference the weaknesses of the posttrib view.* 

A Gideon moment or a Hananiah moment?

Wickland cites Esther 4:14 - For such a time as this.. and the Gideon narrative in Judges 6:1–40 as rhetorical leverage for a call to “resistance” and a prophetic national revival. Peaceful resistance itself is not novel; it has always been the Christian mandate. The problem is that the churches have consistently failed, drifting further into apostasy; the present climate is a form of divine judgment. I remain cautious about sweeping “prophetic words” especially those offering national‑scale assurances. When such declarations collapse, the resulting disillusionment can be severe.

If Wickland genuinely believes that God will intervene and bring revival to the UK he must be certain that his prophecy is accurate — that we are not witnessing a Hananiah‑type moment of confident but unfounded assurances. Scripture consistently warns of significant end‑time apostasy rather than large‑scale revival, and that pattern should inform our discernment.

The public association between Bishop Cei (Ceirion) Dewar, Pastor Chris Wickland and Tommy Robinson, who presents himself as a recent convert, is well‑documented, including shared platforms and collaborative activity. My knowledge of Dewar is limited, but the available material indicates a confessional, exclusivist, anti‑ecumenical stance, with explicit rejection of mainstream Anglican structures and inter‑church cooperation. He also appears aligned with forms of militant Christian‑nationalist activism hence his association with Tommy Robinson.

The suggestion that believers should set aside theological differences and align themselves with Wickland, Dewar, and Robinson requires caution. Broad prophetic assertions about national revival demand testing and restraint. As 1 John 4:1 makes clear, not every spirit or proclamation is to be uncritically received without examination.

I would echo the words of Jeremiah.. Amen! May the Lord do so; may the Lord make the words that you have prophesied come true.. (Jeremiah 28:6).   

BUT - bearing in mind Wickland's poor theology and frequent suspect "words from the Lord" I am sceptical.

In that same year, at the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fifth month of the fourth year, Hananiah the son of Azzur, the prophet from Gibeon, spoke to me in the house of the Lord, in the presence of the priests and all the people, saying, “Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon. Within two years I will bring back to this place all the vessels of the Lord’s house, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took away from this place and carried to Babylon. I will also bring back to this place Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, and all the exiles from Judah who went to Babylon, declares the Lord, for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.”
Then the prophet Jeremiah spoke to Hananiah the prophet in the presence of the priests and all the people who were standing in the house of the Lord, and the prophet Jeremiah said, “Amen! May the Lord do so; may the Lord make the words that you have prophesied come true, and bring back to this place from Babylon the vessels of the house of the Lord, and all the exiles. Yet hear now this word that I speak in your hearing and in the hearing of all the people. The prophets who preceded you and me from ancient times prophesied war, famine, and pestilence against many countries and great kingdoms. As for the prophet who prophesies peace, when the word of that prophet comes to pass, then it will be known that the Lord has truly sent the prophet.”
Then the prophet Hananiah took the yoke-bars from the neck of Jeremiah the prophet and broke them. And Hananiah spoke in the presence of all the people, saying, “Thus says the Lord: Even so will I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon from the neck of all the nations within two years.” But Jeremiah the prophet went his way.
Sometime after the prophet Hananiah had broken the yoke-bars from off the neck of Jeremiah the prophet, the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah: “Go, tell Hananiah, ‘Thus says the Lord: You have broken wooden bars, but you have made in their place bars of iron. For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: I have put upon the neck of all these nations an iron yoke to serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and they shall serve him, for I have given to him even the beasts of the field.’” And Jeremiah the prophet said to the prophet Hananiah, “Listen, Hananiah, the Lord has not sent you, and you have made this people trust in a lie. Therefore thus says the Lord: ‘Behold, I will remove you from the face of the earth. This year you shall die, because you have uttered rebellion against the Lord.’”
In that same year, in the seventh month, the prophet Hananiah died. (Jeremiah 28:1-17).

Wickland's self presentation as a "prophetic voice" for the UK is in my view both delusional and dangerous.
