Thanks for making me laugh.

Somehow, old Oral seems like paddycakes next to these demonic fakers.

I wish I could really laugh at them but they are wounding so many people I’m afraid it gets to me.

It gets to me as well....I always thought Benny Hinn, up there on stage, waving his magical arms around, pretending to send a quarter of the audience into a dead faint, as if, “slain in the spirit” was the ultimate low point, but I can see, there is always further down to go....

That being said, I do believe that miracles, and spontaneous cures, can and do happen...I just do not place my faith, in some self proclaimed faith healers...

If this guy is legit, surely he can bring an amputee on stage, and recreate one of his limbs...I dont ask for even an arm or a leg, or a hand or foot...how about recreating a big toe or a pinky finger...that should be childs play for someone who claims he can raise the dead...

I admit that at first I was enthused about what sounded (from many reports) of a great revival taking place in Lakeland, but on further review it occurred to me that the Holy Spirit is highly unlikely to instruct Todd Bentley to kick people, knock them down, stomp on them, etc., in order to "heal" them.

I consider it highly likely that he is driven not by the Holy Spirit, but by demonic influences.

And the so-called 'healings' are all "internal", there are never any limbs restored, vision recovered, or any obvious signs of the true miraculous Power of God.

If anyone were to tell me they were headed for Lakeland to see Bentley, I would give them the same advice if they said they were going to a brothel, i.e., "hope you'll enjoy bringing home all those infectious bugs (demons) with you".
