What in the world is this about? I have never heard of “grave sucking” and while the writer refutes it, he doesn’t define the practice. What is it?

The article linked in post one sez: Evidently, this refers to the practice of a believer going to the grave of a departed saint they revere (for example, Charles Finney or Kathryn Kuhlman) and lay on top of it and/or kneel in front of it so they can receive an impartation of the anointing (or mantle) of the departed saint.

Sounds pretty freaky.

I never heard of it either. Sounds creepy.

It's like "bullying" ... in that ....

You pick a word, beat it to death and it becomes part of the vocabulary
