Dr Morris Cerullo’s ministry 'Mission to London' has reignited passion for the Gospel in the capital’s believers, as thousands gathered to praise and hear some of the top preachers from around the world unite in exhorting the Holy Spirit.
Howard Conder, founder of Revelation TV, called to the more than 4,000 attendees gathered last night for the Kingdom to be preached once again in the United Kingdom.
Meanwhile, Bishop John Francis said in the pre-runner to his sermon that “the season has come” for believers to take new territory.
Bishop Francis exhorted the crowds in his sermon to consider the question asked by Jesus in John 5:6, “Do you want to get well?”
Listeners of all ages were reminded once again of the role they had to play in firstly seeking salvation, and then to take the step of "bringing their mat" – the things that have been controlling them in their lives – to Christ.
The crowds were spiritually uplifted by the evening’s message and hundreds more came forward from the crowd last night seeking salvation through Christ.
Dr Cerullo said that 500 people had already stepped forward from the crowds on the first night to accept Jesus into their lives. He expressed Mission to London’s aim to bring another 1,000 on Thursday night.
Preachers at the six-day event include Senior Pastor of Kingsway International Christian Centre, Matthew Ashimolowo, Benny Hinn, Tayo Adeyemi, Senior Minister of New Wine Church, London, Bishop John Francis, Founder and Senior Pastor of Ruach Ministries in Brixton, London, and RT Kendall, former Minister of Westminster Chapel and author of ‘Believing God’.
Internationally renowned worship leader Dr Ron Kenoly will be leading the worship later in the week. Mission to London will run at London's Earl's Court until Saturday 22 July.

to all the critic of the wonder working powers of the holy spirit. Indeed the profound truth about the healing abilities of the holy spirit and equally the invisible reality has been overtly misconstrued under the guise of religious masturbation. God has been mocked in the event, but the factual truth holds water. what this critics need to comprehend is the fact that even human entities are extensions of the invisible reality which the real somebody. as a person i am the extension of the invisible self which is the real me. in other words the physical me is not the real me since its perishable, its defined within precincts of time and space continuum. but the invisible me is indestructible and stretches to eternity. the implicit underlying this remarks hinges on the fact that the holy spirit is real and persons are used of God to implode his power in man. I am a kenyan and in my home town lives a Prophet by the name Nyamima who has resurrected 7 dead corpses back to life: if u doubt come with the dead of a man and you will live to worship his Majesty the heavenly god.

I am writing in response to Crispin.
The bible doesn't contradict itself, especially when it comes to historical accounts. There are some places, mainly gospels where one writer will note details that the others didn't, but it doesn't contradict. What kind of facts are you looking for? People who claim they are looking for facts they are looking for an opportunity to try and prove someone wrong. Faith is the evidence of something unseen. There is evidence all around you. If you choose to ignore it or attribute it to something else, it is not our short coming. There is documented evidence everywhere in medicine where cancers, tumours and illnesses spontaneously are healed and have x-rays and other documents to prove it. Limbs, eyes, and features do regrow ... but they are usually in countries that have more faith for miracles like that. Just because someone cannot or plain out refuses to see something doesn't mean it can't or hasn't happened.

M. Agbe, I feel very sorry for you. You are the sort of person who prostates themselves for the words of man that represent the unproved. I totally understand about the faith of believing in the Holy spirit...But, I believe facts not fiction. The bible has to many contradictions for it to declare itself a historical document. To many times have I seen preachers shouting towards the sky proclaiming that they have the ability let the Holy spirit through their body and heel the sick. Not one preacher has ever been able to prove that the person they have "healed" was ever really ill. So, show me a person who has lost a limb, been prayed over and then the limb has re-grown. Then I will take notice. This has never happened and never will. That is why I have no faith in these BS preachers. They are all Charlatans! And you are a fool!

I write in response to Crispin Floyde.
I am a spirit filled ambassador of Christ, simply put, I am a believer, a Christian. Can start by saying that God is no respecter of persons, that is, he will choose and use who he wants to get message accross to his beloved mankind. Whether or not Maurice Cerullo is a performer is irrelevant (though i don't believe for one moment that he is !!) , what is important is that people are accepting salvation from Christ and experiencing great moves of the Holy Spirit in these last days - so I really think you are missing the point!! Every born again christian is annointed with the power of the Holy Spirit to evangelise and heal the sick in the name of Jesus. I reiterate that God is no respecter of persons and he will use those who are willing to be used not just Evangelists you see on the television and elsewhere.
God would probably use you, if you accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour !!

Let just start by saying that I do believe in God, but I don't believe that man has the power or the ability to channel the forces of God. It is for these reasons that I believe that this man Dr. Cerullo is nothing more than a well versed stage performer who has the knowledge to induce nothing more than hypnotic hysteria.
I readily invite Dr. Cerrullo and anyone else to prove me wrong. I offer this challenge as I know full well that this evangelical preacher can not and does have the ability to prove me wrong. I guarentee that I will prove if face to face with this man that he can not and does not have the ability to use the powers of God.
My challenge is open to any preacher, regardless of denomination. I am not out to cause harm of trick anybody, I not here to cause offence to any individual or their beliefs. I am here to prove that these type of preachers do not have the abilities that they claim to have and that is to act as channels for God's powers.
