Subject: Heresy Hunting or Biblical Mandate? |
Bible Note: Asis Paul named them, 2 Tim. 2:16-18 But shun profane and idle babblings, for they will increase to more ungodliness. [17] And their message will spread like cancer. Hymenaeus and Philetus are of this sort, [18] who have strayed concerning the truth, saying that the resurrection is already past; and they overthrow the faith of some. Your right about those that swim against the current being called heretics. However I'm not sure what happened during the reformation was what God desired. Instead of one church we have many each following what they have deemed to be correct. We have opened the flood gates of human reasoning and ushered in the "if it sounds good do it" philosophy. Having once been an ordained Word of Faith preacher, much to my shame, I know the doctrine. I also know the lies, deception, the twisting and convolution of the truth that takes place within it. I now spend a lot of time ministering to those whose lives and faith have virtually been destroyed by it. I know the hurt, shame, suffering that occurs when something you have faith for doesn't occur and the teaching allows only to blame yourself for the failure. I personally know many men and women leaders within the WOF and know their lives and I know the lies. I know how some leave the country to receive medical treatment so it wouldn't be revealed. I know of the divorces that are covered up. I know of the children that are either involved in sin or have have separated themselves from their parents becaseu they too know the lies. I have heard the teachers talk about how they can work a crowd and get their money. I know how they practice the tears, the sincere looks, the cute jokes. Word of faith in not faith in God it is faith in faith. It has become a lying idol and its teaching has destroyed unknown thousands. Yes I think I know the doctrine well enough to discuss it, but I don't think you want to with me. EdB |
