That doesn't mean God went out of his way to use TB, but rather in spite of what TB may have had in mind God could use his words to convict people.

The post that kicked me into posting on this thread was about a man who truly loves God, is filled with the Spirit and was/is filled with tumors that the Doctors told him they could no longer do anything for. Out of desperation they went to Florida and a TB event (or whatever you want to call it) for whatever reason the tumors are shrinking now when the Dr says they ought to be growing. I don't know what the outcome will be but I will not discount the work of God because someone who purports to be a spokesman from God is really a fraud.

Where did I attribute the healing to TB?

I am not digging myself deeper at all, you respond without reading.
You need to reread your own writing. The revival is moot, and so is TB.
You are the one jumping up and down for your boy and attacking me.

Cool out son, I think you need to re-read your own posts.

You still say that God used TB in spite of himself. You are still saying that God use Bentley.

I just posted it and bolded for you to see. You can attack me but it’s hard to mischaracterize my words when they are there for all to see.

First you changed what you claimed I said and then you misstated it with it right in front of your face.

Re: Evangelist Bentley stepping down

Hypothetical situation:
An unbeliever goes to the Florida outpouring....comes to the conclusion that what they are seeing is suspicious....in their suspicion they decide to check out this "Jesus" stuff.
In their search, they find the truth and become believers. Did God use TB in this?....Just food for thought

Maybe if you read slowly and stop spitting all over the monitor screen.

So, if you have no dog in this fight then why all the splatter?

Maybe if I read what slowly? Maybe if I type slower you could understand what I have been saying all along.

You have not been able to point to anything in my posts that say what you claimed I said.

Your food is nothing more than bread and water. Just for the record when I was in the world I would of never went for any goof ball with earings and tattoos preaching about an Angel telling him to heal people.

But here's a hypothetical situation:

Big freaky dude is up on a stage telling a bunch of bikers who felt to check out the Jesus stuff, that he represents an Angel that performs miracles.

One of the Bros, has the idea to jump on stage to try the tattooed man's claims out.

Well, this big large tattooed dude wines up and runs at the Biker and kicks the biker in the chest. After the big tattooed dude busts the biker in the chest with his foot, the rest of the bikers jump up and storm the stage.
The cops come and calm the place down and make arrests.

Now for the facts:

There is NO outpouring in Lakeland Revival.

None, nada, zip.

Todd Bentley was NEVER used by God, to heal anyone at the Lakeland revival.

There you go.

Thanks for speaking for God. Your arrogance is astounding.

Besides the fact that you once again side-stepped what was said in favor of your own prattle.
