We consider such blatantly false teaching to be reason enough, as well as a "release" enough to leave -and wipe the dust from our feet as we walk out.

And as I said, it wouldn't last long......!

Which is why the praise and adoration directed at LS is so sickening.

Confuses the angels?

#1)who do we pray to anyway? I never prayed to any angels

#2)What about the pentecostal girls who wear hair extensions, are the fooling the angels?

Doesn't sound like John the Baptist who said, "He (Jesus) must increase, but I must decrease" (John 3:30)

The last message from him posted here that I (partially) watched had an incredible amount of "I did this" and "I did that"'s in it. As far as sermons I have listened to from him recorded during the past decade, he was always pretty self centered but it seems to be reaching new heights as of late to where I see the LS group/followers lasting decades into the future in the same manner that the WB group does now.

Do you become jaded at false teaching that others constantly push like the misuse of grace that many today constantly lace there sermons with?

When everyone's hair is put up on their heads, how can the angels tell whose is cut and whose isn't?

What about women who just got in church? How long does it take for their hair to no longer look cut so that the angels are not in turmoil?

Ridiculousness.

Grace isn't preached enough, and at least it is biblical.

I can't recall hearing grace preached one single time until I was in my 30's. And I was in church at least 3-4 times a week since birth.

I know exactly what you mean, but there was plenty of fear and threatening. Especially at campmeetings and youth camps.
