I’ll send you a link on cleansing stream. I know it may be helpful for some, but there is an infectious doctrine of these Elijah Listers that we must show our selves approved to understand and rebuke.
The Elijah List has far too much commercialization for my taste by a long shot.
When I confronted the founder about it, he insisted that it’s to help fund a long list of single mothers etc. etc. etc. . . . quite admirable and praise God for that.
However, when even the printer friendly pages are outrageously filled with ads, something’s out of balance, imho.
I don’t think everything he posts on the list is anointed or straight from God. A number of things are—and are a blessing to the Body of Christ.
The characters you listed certainly have their flaws and saying goofy things at times has been one of them.
Nevertheless, God has used them and those still in this dimension who have made things right where correction was needed will be used of God again.
It is still hazardous to throw unnecessary rocks at folks God is using.
I received an excellent article in the email basket that I hope to share when I get some other things further along.
Certainly we are to point out unBiblical error etc.
However, a lot of the rock throwing originates out of folks hostile to other Believers because
“THEY MUST BE WRONG BECAUSE THEY DON’T DO THINGS LIKE WE DO”
and I don’t think God is typically very impressed with that.
HE LOVES to use His ‘foolishness’ with very strange birds to confound the wise.
We’ve done it several times in our church and it’s been an excellent program. I hope we can do it again. The retreats are very good. I was freed up of some things that held me back for years. The depression lifted. I highly recommend it to anyone.
