Whereas the Bible is God's word to all people in all places at all times, and points to the Son of God, Jesus Christ; in that, it is the final arbiter of God's revelation, and is given that men may believe and be saved, and not to advance anyone human beings personal agenda,
and
Whereas we, the undersigned, take the Gospel of Jesus Christ seriously, for the sake of those who have not yet believed,
and
Whereas we, the undersigned, also take the word of God seriously, as it is God's word and not the result of some man's imagination,
and
Whereas we, the undersigned, also have a concern for the integrity of the whole church, regardless of denomination, to be a credible witness for the Gospel of Jesus Christ by proclaiming the whole word of God,
and
Whereas Pat Robertson has, in the last several years, abused the authority of Scripture, abused the license of a minister of God to expound of what "God has said" to him regarding prophecies and signs, and abused the position of high visibility to the public he possesses in those ways while representing himself as a minister of the Gospel,
Therefore, we respectfully and earnestly exhort him to stand down from his self-appointed position as "prophet" -- that is, one who receives God's own words and speaks them to the world apart from established Scripture -- and apologize to the church, and on behalf of the church to those who have witnessed his abuses, for his on-going representation of himself as a mouthpiece for God Almighty.
Because Mr. Robertson has made his errors publicly, we call for his apology publicly. His mistaken representation of his imagination as the word of God is a stumbling block to unbelievers, and discredits the Gospel, which is the only power to save.

- Mr. Robertson, please examine yourself carefully. You are surrounded by people that think extra-biblical revelations are an almost everyday occurance. Have you never read Rev.22;18 ? The Holy Scriptures have been closed for 2 millenniums. Please don't try to rationalize this petition away, don't let pride continue to rule in you.

- It's clear that it's not the God of Abraham speaking to you. So, who's gospel are you proclaiming, Pat?

- Will a petition make any difference to a person who receives direct revelation from God? I'm all for the petition, but don't get my hopes up.

- I used to watch the 700 club in the 80's and Pat Robertson has really gone astray from that time. He really needs a Holy Spirit conviction for his errors.

- Brother its time to stop tickling ears. A TV show and a great number of fans with money to burn are not the same as a flock of believers. Repent. Return to your calling as a pastor of a local church. Quit catering to the masses. Remember 2 Timothy 4:3-4 the next time everyone in the room tells you how great you are. Its not to late.

- If he were an OT prophet, he would have been stoned for the prophecies he has made that have not come true. Nothing he says can be believed when he says "Thus says the Lord," because the Lord did not thus say.

- Trinity Reformed Church, Moscow ID. Comment: Even if the old ways of revlation were still valid, a true prophet could NOT both speak predictions in the name of God, AND say (paraphrasing perhaps) "sometimes I miss".
