Hi ngkh, I have not read his book. Have you? At any rate, here's a brief bio I found on Peter Tsukahira: Peter Tsukahira was born in the United States and is now a citizen of Israel. He lives with his family on Mt. Carmel in the city of Haifa. Peter is Director of the Or HaCarmel Ministry Center and one of the pastors of Kehilat HaCarmel, and Israeli Messianic congregation. He is ordained by World Challenge International Minister's Fellowship, founded by Rev. David Wilkerson. He also serves on the Board of Directors for Church Growth International, founded by Dr. David Yonggi Cho. I don't know whether his book is worth reading or not. However, by default of his association with Yonggi Cho, I'd approach it with some caution. Further, based on your statement that he is proclaiming things in contradiction to the Bible, I'd opine the obvious: Steer clear. New and novel ides and theories are always suspicious and deserve close scrutiny. Curiously, why do you think his book is worth reading? Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

Hi BradK, I am not sure if Yonggi Cho is teaching things that is contradictory to the bible. If he has, I would appreciate your input so that I too will approach it with caution. Why were there such revival in Korea. A Church by the hundreds of thousands members. Cult or just because he has thousandsof followers. I apologise again for my english. When I stated their book I meant the Quoran. What I meant was, Peter highlighted the contradiction in the Quoran and not he proclaiming things in contradiction to the bible. Why I think his book is worth reading? From what I heard on the cd (based on the book), it gives me an interesting view on the history of the Arabs and the Jews (old testament , Isaac and Ishmael), why the Quoran is in direct contradiction to the Bible and why there are so much hate by the Arab against Israel (Psalm 83) two thousand year ago and is still is now. Why we should pray for the Arabs so that they will receive the revelations from the Holy Spirit and like Esau ( Gods rejected one), forgives and reconcile with Jacob (Gods chosen one). i.e. reborn arabs reconciling with the Israel. Not an impossible event. |

Dear ngkh, Paul Yonggi (David Cho) Cho is a Word-Faith teacher. Here are some of the challenges to his theology: if Buddhists and Yoga practitioners can accomplish their objectives through fourth dimensional powers, then Christians should be able to accomplish much more by using the same means." (Hank Hanegraaff, "Christianity in Crisis" page 353. Paul Yonggi Cho, The Fourth Dimension, vol. 1 (South Plainfield, NJ: Bridge Publishing, 1979), 37, 41) As Cho tells the story of his name change, God showed him that Paul Cho had to die and David Cho was to be resurrected in his place. According to Cho, God Himself came up with his new name. (Hank Hanegraaff, "Christianity in Crisis" page 352-353. Paul Yonggi Cho, "Yonggi Cho Changes His Name," Charisma and Christian Lifepage 80, November 1992) "You create the presence of Jesus with your mouth ... He is bound by your lips and by your words ... Remember that Christ is depending upon you and your spoken word to release His presence." ((Hank Hanegraaff, "Christianity in Crisis" page 353. Paul Yonggi Cho, The Fourth Dimension, Vol.1 1979, p. 83) Cho's concept of fourth-dimensional thinking is nothing short of occultism. In his best-selling book "The Fourth Dimension", Cho unveils his departure from historic Christian theology and his entry into the world of the occult. Cho lists four steps in his incubation formula: 1) Visualize a clear-cut goal or idea in your mind; 2) have a burning desire for your objective; 3) pray until you get the guarantee or assurance from God that what you desire is already yours; 4) speak or confess the end result into existence. (Hank Hanegraaff, "Christianity in Crisis" page 353. Paul Yonggi Cho, The Fourth Dimension, Volume One (So. Plainfield, NJ: Bridge Publishing, 1979), 9-35; vol. 2, 18-33) "Through visualization and dreaming you can incubate your future and hatch the results." (Hank Hanegraaff, "Christianity in Crisis" page 353. Paul Yonggi (David) Cho, The Fourth Dimension, p. 44) "Paul Yonggi Cho — pastor of the world's largest church, located in Seoul, South Korea — claims to have received his call to preach from Jesus Christ Himself, who supposedly appeared to him dressed like a fireman. Cho has packaged his faith formulas under the label of "fourth dimensional power." He is well aware of his link to occultism, arguing that if Buddhists and Yoga practitioners can accomplish their objectives through fourth dimensional powers, then Christians should be able to accomplish much more by using the same means. In case one is tempted to confuse the size of Cho's following with the truth of his teachings, let me point out that the Buddhist version of "name it and claim it" (Nichiren Shoshu Buddhism) has an even larger following than does Cho. Cho recently made the news by changing his name from Paul to David. As Cho tells the story, God showed him that Paul Cho had to die and David Cho was to be resurrected in his place. According to Cho, God Himself came up with his new name." (Paul Yonggi (David) Cho, "WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE FAITH MOVEMENT (Part One): E. W. Kenyon and the Twelve Apostles of Another Gospel," Hank Hanegraaff) He is anything but Orthodox in his teachings. He is much more in line with mysticism than the teachings of the Bible.
