[Sen Jack S. Fogbound]

Pretty hard to believe but this is supposely well-documented!

[billbears]

Never seen or heard about this. Guys, heard anything? In the past I would tend to be skeptical but God's power is infinite and I'm not going to doubt that

[lexington minuteman 1775]

Well Bonke is legit.And he has been doing evangelistic crusades from Capetown to Cairo and Europe for over 30 years.I think the purposes of these sorts of miracles is to increase faith.There will be folks who beliefs become stronger as is evident in this article.And of course you will have the nay sayers.Very intresting stuff.If you want my prediction.More of this stuff will happen.

Them Nigerian folk sure do know how to play the suckers, don't they?

[dark_lord]

On the one hand, if someone is actually embalmed, for them to get up and walk later would require a miracle.

On the other hand, this story comes from Nigeria, land of the scam.

Many reliable and credible witnesses in Jesus' day (Including Roman officers) witnessed his miracles..and were converted.

Lazarus was not just in a coma...according to the bible (and his sister's testimony) ...his corpse was rotten enough to stink...

And the Lord spoke Lazarus back to life...healthy life..(as many reliable witnesses testifyied)

The bible also teaches that the followers of Jesus would do these very same kinds of miracles..

Cant say that this is the case..but it would certainly line up with what scripture says will happen...

What better place for the Lord of Light to manifest himself for all to see - but in the darkest places of the earth -...hope where there is no hope-...life where death abounds-...truth where falsehood dominates-..and mercy in the land of cruelty

Interview with Reinhard Bonnke

[Doc Savage]

Hello! I am in your debtness for receiving this plaintiff missive. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Nairobi Anchewaka, the First Liberian Consul to the government of Liberia.

I am currently in possession of 250 million dollars in gold and bearer bonds, but unfortunately my government has restricted all banking negotiations making it impossible for me to move my finances out of Liberia to a safe country.

I am seeking as many blithering American idiots as I can dupe into sending me their names, credit card numbers and and social security numbers so that I may steal their life savings and laugh all the way to my Bahamian hideaway.

Please reply with your telephone and fax information so that I can run up millions of dollars in long distance debt that I will charge to you.

Also, since I have been recently resurrected from the dead, please send all the cash you have immediately available so that I can blow it on hookers and drugs.

Your's from Africa, Land of the Living Dead, Nai'

Gee, I thought this was going to about "new" democrat candidates for the 2004 election.

Seriously though, I read a book some years ago that told several stories like this which occurred in the Phillipines. While I agree that it is pretty incredible, we have to believe that if Jesus raised Lazarus and others from the dead and God raised Jesus from the dead, then His power can work through His people to raise the dead. He said to His disciples that "greater works than these shall you do because I go to my Father."

[monkeyshine]

You mean he died before I could I give him my bank account number?

[woofie]

Was it Lautenburg?

Raised From The Dead by Reinhard Bonnke...Oh Really?

[Ff--150]

bttt

Know someone very, very close to me who went to this place called Heaven, and it was like this man has reported. Though couldn't prove this at all, I have it on great authority that this Heaven is a lot closer than we could imagine...

[ncpastor]

Actually, technically it wasn't a resurrection but rather a rescucitation. Same goes for Lazarus.
