Why is it so difficult for some to determine if this is a move of God or not? Miracles, signs and wonders, even if they are real, are not the test of whether or not something is of God. The test is the Word. Is the Word of truth being preached?

Deut 13:1-4
13:1 If a prophet, or one who foretells by dreams, appears among you and announces to you a miraculous sign or wonder, 2 and if the sign or wonder of which he has spoken takes place, and he says, "Let us follow other gods" (gods you have not known) "and let us worship them," 3 you must not listen to the words of that prophet or dreamer. The LORD your God is testing you to find out whether you love him with all your heart and with all your soul. 4 It is the LORD your God you must follow, and him you must revere. Keep his commands and obey him; serve him and hold fast to him.

Any word or words that God did not give, are words from another god, do not follow this man or believe that he is a man of God.


In my time here at J2 I have undoubtedly made some bone headed posts but this my friend is an excellent post.

Not that I know of, but it seems there are some World employees who can read the Bible and have more discernment than a lot of Pentecostals. :shock:

All I know is

Postby Pastor Gary » June 25th, 2008, 2:57 pm

All I know is those who are really wrapped up in all the angel feathers, gold fillings, gemstones and dramatic services get really up-at-arms when you don't jump on their bandwagon... and if YOU dare challenge the doctrine and praxis being espoused at Lakeland, you get branded as a heresy-hunter, quencher of the Spirit, and more.

(I have been chewed up and spit out on another forum -- actscelerate.com -- by a lot of COG people who have taken a big drink of the Lakeland Koolaid.)

Brother, I've been kicked out of better places. Consider it a compliment that your "kind" ain't accepted there. :wink:

Pastor Gary, I can sympathize because I have felt that way before and not that long ago, and it is no fun. :)

I don't go for angel feathers and gold fillings, I think that is nonsense stuff.
..I press on to take hold of that
for which Christ took hold of me.

I get on there and read the threads "sometimes", but there is definitly way too much spiritual testosterone being thrown around. And I get the feeling that "if ya ain't wid us, ya agin' us"
