Leave that with Rick Joyner, Todd Bentley and the other charismaniacs. they can enjoy their adultery and behind the scenes sinning.
There's not a new dispensation today since Acts, and the new age movement is not something we can learn from despite the charismatic claims.

The "barking like Dogs" I have only seen personally in an old time Pentecostal Church I visited in the 70's. The other things I have never heard of. I hope you are not trying to apply them to IHOP.
I have seen many of their meetings and have never seen anything like you insinuate. So you chose the lyric of a song to try to bring up the same old preterist stuff like you do concerning everything?
But I agree with Misty that God does new things. They may not be new to Bible history but they may well be new to new generations who have not experienced them.
For instance God has not yet shaken everything that can be shaken in America. He has not yet turned the fierceness of his wrath upon America like he will. This will be new when cities are evaporated by atomic bombs.
It will be new when Christians are hunted down and killed in the streets. It will be new when creatures come out of the bottomless pit to torment people with the mark of the beast.
So yes new things will be happening. Not in concept....because light and darkness have always been at war. But the things that are still to come will be new to the people living when they happen.
So to argue about preterism from the lyric of a song will lead to picking apart ALL LYRICS of every song that has been written and used by believers. Wonder where that will lead?
