You can’t be serious. When the head of a household led in conversion, it was genuine.

Not theatrics.

I am serious. When the head of the household led, others followed? Would they have followed without the first step by the leader?

I’ve always known that Billy Graham had his counselors come down at the time of the invitation. Did that make it easier for others to get out of their seats? And, if it did, did it make ALL such statements of commitment to Christ by these people to be false?

It wasn’t a large percentage that stuck, but I think I remember reading it was over 10%.

“When the head of a household led in conversion, it was genuine.”

Many heads of households are deceived by satan. I can take these same men who feel in control of their lives and lead them through the false experience. The only way a person is not vulnerable is if they have already surrendered to God and hold on tight to their relationship.

Sometimes satan will use the Light of God to deceive folks by getting so close to God that people cannot tell the two apart and they end up following the wrong path, while the entire time they think that they are following God.
