>>Is it bringing people closer to Christ, or is it creating a spectacle unto itself?<<
That is the question.
We in the church are not required to believe in any apparition or miracle even if it is ruled to be supernatural.
When that miracle becomes a cult unto itself and money is made hand over fist for the promoters of it, I feel it is evil. When one is drawn closer to Our Lord by the realization of it, that is good.
Amen. God bless.
