Teachings
Bethel church has a unique theological teaching known as “Gods Perfect/Permissive Will.” This is an important teaching in the church. Basically, God has a perfect will for a Christians life. The Devil constantly tries to hamper that plan. Each time a Christian commits sin, the Devil has an automatic right to contest Gods will for that persons life. God is absolutely just, so the Devil gets what he's after. This is where Gods permissive will comes in. God will turn the mistake around to something good in the end, but the result will never be as good as Gods original plan for that persons life. The same happens in the church as a whole. Each time a church member commits some sin, the Devil gains entrance into the church and is able to hamper what God wanted the church to do. The result is that the congregation will frequently be 'blasted' in a message from the platform. They will be told God wants to work miracles within the church, but he cannot until sin is removed.
