Posted: Fri Sep 14, 2007 3:29 pm Post subject: Some Preachers "Demonizing" the Scripture! |
|
|
|
| Have you noticed this! Some guyz have began seeing demons in every push, and every sunday or saturday they always preach about Demons. In other words, i am saying that they have began "Demonising" the Word of God instead of teaching people the "TRUTH". for example, they may read from Genesis 1:1 and begin to preach about Demons. They even give them names like this is a Demon from Victoria e.t.c. Where are we heading to? They do so to win people to their faith by provoking them to fear. The world is changing! Be Wacthful!!

There was a time I decided to go for a sermon, in one of the so many upcoming denominations, I juz wanted a change of venue, from my usual place of worship. When it fikad prayer time, the preacher was moving through the congregation praying and passing blessing. People were falling down in numbers. So when the preacher reached where we were standing, I have never gotten annoyed like that in my life............ imagine the pastor actually as he place his hand on my head, he was pushing me to fall down, I held my ground, and as the "demons" in me were being called to come out and flee, and as the ushers stood behind me waiting for me to fall, i decided there and then that i was not going to give the pastor the pleasure of forcing me to fall down. I sat down on my seat............................of course you can imagine what the pastor did. He almost became physical,.
One thing I know about myself, is a sinner i maybe, but demon possess? and what is it with this falling down business. Actually that episode annoyed me so much, I have never gone back to that church again. _________________ Ability may get you to the top, but it takes character to keep you there

The congregation falling thing is so common in a number of churches.
Bwana Edwin don't quote me - but is it true that there are certain electronic gadgets from the far east (singapore,Thailand etc ) being worn by a group of preachers as they preach which emits reasonable electric currents that makes people fall. Could this be true ama ni borojo tu?
But konyo bo kalenjin let's be cautious to certain religions.

| I am not sure Rokiha. I haven't heard of this. Who knows they may, but I do not know if that can be proved scientifically to be working. Some people especially "women" fall out of curiosity and fear, and others are pushed by the preachers. But i genuinely believe that there are others who are worked upon by God's Spirit and they can genuinely fall. We must be careful the kind of preachers we trust. God Bless Us and Give us the Surpassing Understand.

Cheptabkoret, from what I've seen in your profile you don't look like somebody who can easly be pushed to the ground. No wonder you stood your grounds.

| The way Edwin did say is that there are genuine cases where people do fall because roho ya yesu imeshuka. God we believe in is a marvelous one and he does wonders and miracles which include falling down... so twende pole pole kwa hii otherwise we risk falling down dead kabisa. Halafu ukifika kwa baba utashindwa kusema why you felt.

there are times when you are in church and as the preacher delivers the sermon, you feel like actually it is like it is you, s/he is addressing, you feel like the whole thing is meant for you, and as if the message is actually being passed directly to you... u even look around to see if everybody is experiencing the same thing, and you have this overwhelming feeling that God is actually talking to you and as the preacher says ..." it is you i am addressing today", at that point you alone knows that at that particular moment... God's message was passed to you.
Same case therefore Rokiha, when you experience the overwhelming presence of the holyspirit... you will feel it, you will know it and you will never ignore it. God has a powerful way of communicating that no other man can fake it for you. _________________ Ability may get you to the top, but it takes character to keep you there
