I have a truthful concern:
I visited a charismatic church this past sunday. I don't have too much problem with charismatic things and some friends attend this place I visited, but
the visiting speaker said some things to make me turn my ears off and wait for the service to end. He also seemed quite judgemental of other Christians and
was manipulative on the audience. The speaker claimed the Holy Spirit told him to punch a cancer victim in order to heal her. Yes, that is right...punch her.
And he did. I was saddened how many people shouted halelujah and laughed. This speaker's name is Guy Peh. There isn't much about him on the Web yet,
but he has his own website www.guypeh.com. One webpage had opinions and most of the people doubt his claims. He appears
to be a false prophet. Somebody else who is part of the hit and heal fad is Todd Bentley. These two I know of. This behavior to me is a total disgrace and it
is no surprise many people opt out of Christianity for something else. Peh and his wife do the ministering. People fell over, some appeared injured or unable
to get up without help. Then there was a little sermon and prayer about money and then the bucket is passed around to collect money. The Bible says "If
they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them." Does the Holy Spirit contradict what is already written in the Bible
about healing? No. Is it recorded that Jesus or the Apostles beat on people to heal? No. So this spirit that says to hit somebody for healing...is it a
spirit of light and according to the Bible? I don't think so. Please be on the lookout for wolves in sheep clothing. Read your Bible and know what is
real or not. "Ye shall not add unto this word, neither diminish ought from it," because, "If they speak not according to this word, it is
because there is no light in them."

The EndTimes Churches will be Characterized by Apostasy | ||
|
We should not be surprised because we were promised that the endtimes churches would be ateup with apostasy, compromise, spiritual decline, doctrinal confusion and religious deception. 2 Thessalonians 2:3; Matthew 24:10-13 (King James Version) |

They water down the true word of God. They put much emphasise on the Holy Ghost rolling them over on the floor, ETC. It is self centered, just
what was part of the future as Jesus said about the end times.

Just thought I'd share my "discovery" of another minister who claims to be obeying "God" to hit people. Seems to be the new fad, yet
sad. No surprise that it is true. Itching ears and a hunger for some kind of thrilling event are popular these days and the itching and hunger deter one from
studying the Bible.

Sounds a lot like the Rodney Browne? in Pensecola Florida who said he was "God's bartender" (talking about the laughing revival in Pensacola). No
wonder you have the unsaved referring to Christians as "nut jobs" and worse. Can we blame them with the guys you described and this Browne character
running around? Isn't it strange that all this craziness is coming from Charismatic circles? It seems their disdain for doctrine and their "love
Gospel" is coming home to roost.
