Three sources of prophecy in Scripture: from God, from Satan (false prophets), and from the prophet's own heart — the third type is what characterizes most Bethel prophecy

Mike identifies three distinct prophetic sources in Scripture — not just the typical two: (1) prophecy from God; (2) prophecy from Satan (false prophets); (3) prophecy from the prophet's own heart. He argues that the majority of Bethel's prophecy falls into the third category — not demonic, but self-generated. He states he is not definitively labeling any of it demonic, but identifying it as heart-sourced imagination labeled as divine speech.
