I'm not saying that God can't do those things because I know He can....but it just seems that this Todd Bentley is just like all of the other WOF teachers/preachers....and it honestly makes me sick to my stomach.....

Found an interesting clip of him where he describes seeing an angle, runs to the angle and says he felt like he was hit by a 2X4 and sees himself outside of his body. He disclaims it being and out of body experience, that the Lord brought him out in the spirit as he walked around the service and people whisper they ailments in his ear. If you want to know more, go to Fresh Fire Ministries and read the SOF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 Every time I read something like this it makes me wonder. Its not that God can't heal, deliver, etc. He can, and He does. He's done many such things in my life, and in others' too. Here's what I wonder about: Why is it that all these "healing ministries" don't go out and empty a hospital, like Jesus did during His earthly ministry. No "meeting", no money, just heal everyone in the place. Empty a cancer ward! Watch someone with a damaged spinal cord walk again. Then watch the medical folks standing around in shock as the patients get up and leave healthy and whole. That's what I'd like to see, and I have to think from what I read in the Gospels that Jesus would do exactly that if He were here today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sensationalism, flashy. I get skeptical when the dollar signs out do the healings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Money has been collected about 3 times out of 3 weeks. *** I'm WOF!! Instead of viewing with specific mindsets why not just worship Yahweh.
