I have been aware of the ministry of Bishop; Dr. Howard M. Sarkela for more than 25 years. I cannot imagine anyone even considering the asking of such an offensive question concerning a dedicated servant of our Lord Jesus Christ.. What is your motive in asking such a question? What can you present as evidence for such a falsely assumptive question?
Bishop Sarkela is Presiding Bishop of a large worldwide ministry composed of a network of over 4,000 churches worldwide including approximately half a million members as well as a seminary and university network responsible for training thousands of students for the ministry of the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Bishop Sarkela is a conservative evangelical with roots in both the Finnish Apostolic Lutheran Church and the Independent Baptist Church, where he served his first Pastorate in 1978. He has preached the Gospel of Salvation by Grace through Faith, to over 12,000,000 people in over 32 years of ministry worldwide.
He has taken a stand against liberal theology as well as the popular prosperity gospel.
His theology is very Bible centered and he is a strong believer in the normal literal translation of the Word of God, which he believes is infallible and inspired by God. A review of his ministry websites will support his mainstream evangelical position. Just read his ministry's doctrinal position on any of his websites at: www.christianallianceministries.com / www.northwesternseminary.com / www.NTSlibrary.com for support and consistency regarding this statement of defense concerning this man of God who has been recognized by Pat Robertson, Oral Roberts and numerous other respected servants of Christ. Bishop Sarkela's personal life and ministry have been untarnished by controversy and to even consider him a heretic is nothing less than an attempt at persecution of a true man of God.
