I have skin in the game (see my tagline).

I personally think these kinds of problems...false prophesies, promises of healings that never happen, etc...are more symptomatic of the church in America than the global Pentecostal movement. And I have a host of reasons why this is, depending on how long you’ve got...

“depending on how long you’ve got...”

Type away!

There’s a real problem of people not applying test of Scirpture to claimed prophesying, etc.

These days, all someone has to do is say *God told me* or *Thus sayeth the Lord,....* and God alone can help you if you question what they say.

They are aghast and ask, *How can you dare to question God? (Or *Touch not the Lord’s anointed*).

Well, I’m not questioning God.

I’m questioning YOU and what you are saying is from God.

Start reading about churches in Africa. It will change your mind on this.
