Re: When did God give man permission to eat animals....?
I agree with about 90% of this article. I agree that we need to be very careful what Spirits are working in our lives or against us.1corinth 2:14
We have a saying for this also...
just cause you get goosebumps dont mean its God. We need to carefully compare all spiritual contacts against scripture. Not neccesarily in the sense that the Bible wont say...Nooley will get the rent paid when he needs it...but in the sense that the God says he will meet all my needs according to his riches and glory.
HOWEVER, there are some stuff in this article that just hit a nerve. The same nerve that Luke12 hit when trying to say the gifts of the Spirit are dead and gone and miracles are only of satan. I agree that the spirit of God wont levitate poeple. What purpose would this acheive for God's glory?...just not scriptural...but saying that someone coming out of a wheel chair when healed is not the spirit of God??as long as all Glory is given to God?....thats rediculous...thats saying the same thing we battled together against Luke12 in this very forum.
guys with pies??(hey that rhymes...LOL) would i believe it if it happened to me?...could that be scriptural? i have no comment for that one..but it does sound weird. I can tell you some miracles happened to me that cant be denied. I have a notebook with 2 pages of miracles that would make the hair on your arms stand on end.
As far as the comment of Benny Hinn knocking down the first few rows of people?...that i have a personal testimony of a Pastor friend that had no reason in this world to lie to me. He was actually invited to one of Benny Hinns meetings. He was on stage with him. Benny Hinn called all the Pastors on stage together and told them, " I dont know how or why God has given me this gift, but watch what God does" and he waved his hand over the crowd with no warning and the first 6 to 7 rows fell out in the spirit. I might add that this Pastor is a really good friend of mine whom i trust and has no direct affiliation to Benny Hinn. He just happened to pastor a church in the area Benny did a crusade and he was invited to be onstage with him.
Is that scriptural?acts 2:42-47
1corinth 12
also saying that speaking in tounges isnt of the spirit of God?...hmmmm...thats rediculous also..we all know its one of the gifts of the Spirit of God..acts 10:44-46
so some of this stuff i agree with...some of this stuff the guy wrote is utterly rediculous.
I also dont agree with him saying only a select few even among the saved wont go to heaven. I would agree if he said that God already knows who will choose him in advance, but to say that he will turn away even some that choose him is rediculous. Maybe i read that wrong...correct me if i did
Just my 2 cents worth
