I attended Harold Eberle\\u2019s Worldcast conference that included a round-table discussion which was interactive, respectful and healthy. We touched on some fair questions that deserve answers. I asked most of them myself in the past and now I\\u2019m starting to hear them multiple times. They are usually intellectual / theological and ask the larger heart question of \\u201cwhy do I need to do this?\\u201d I decided to collect them and provide a simple answer. If you think of additional questions or come up with better answers, please add them. Please don\\u2019t worry about offending me\\u2014you won\\u2019t.

I came away from the conference with several impressions:

\\n
• There is a door open to the council . . . the real definition of ecclesia is those who go there (Mt 16:18-19).
\\n
• Courts and trading floors lay a foundation (walking in a spirit of repentance or purity), but we have to go on to books and a lifestyle of being present in the council and delivering the fruit (binding and loosing).
\\n
• There is a place for preaching and teaching the fundamentals, but the real need is stories of delivering the goods from heaven to earth . . . especially from the other six mountains (it\\u2019s an experience that works more than a truth or a theology that preaches).
\\n
• We have to stop trying to get other people to be priests, prophets and seers for us. Business people have to be pulled into this realm to fully inherit their place in the Kingdom.
\\n
• Becoming a seer is everyone\\u2019s assignment / invitation . . . it\\u2019s for everyone more than a gift for a few. (just like baptism in the Holy Spirit, healing, prophecy, etc.)
\\n
• There is a missing piece, i.e., 10\\u2019s of thousands want personal mentoring to navigate all this. How is a practical challenge. It\\u2019s a leap to go from a book or conference or video to an experience of seeing in heaven.
\\n
• The mentality of the pastors tended toward: 1) how to manage / whether to permit it, 2) the theology of whether it\\u2019s true, 3) how to preach it and explain it . . . How to experience it themselves was the deeper question . . . some will now and all will eventually.
\\n
• Two things I tried to refute:
  \\nThere was one sentiment expressed that this was just for intercessors (false)
  \\nsome people have a seer gift and the rest of us don\\u2019t (false)
  \\n
\\n
• Minds were scrolling through the standard list of reasons of why I don\\u2019t need to do this (intellectually). The questions that were raised are interesting and representative and are addressed below.
\\n

The only thing wrong with this Q&A approach is that it suggests the gateway to courts and councils is through our heads. Answers to intellectual questions miss the point of the longing in our hearts. Logical answers to tough questions are not enough to convince anyone, but those who have tasted the experience of it still need answers for their \\u201cminds,\\u201d as we all do. I had all the same question.
