The Number One Damnable Heresy of 2008!
Volume 35 – December 2008
By Michael C. Gaudiosi
I don’t know about you, but 2008 went very quickly! I find it hard to believe that I’m writing this edition, which I do every December. It seems like yesterday I was writing the 2007 edition!
The term which I use… “damnable heresy” comes from this verse of scripture – 2 Peter 2:1 – But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
Now for the good part…I’m sure you want to know just who has received the coveted award of “The Number One Damnable Heresy of 2008″. You are on the edge of your seat, just dying to know which event of 2008 has received this “honor”. You have waited with anticipation all year long and now it’s finally here! Alright, you have waited long enough!
…and the “winner” is:
THE FLORIDA OUTPOURING/LAKELAND REVIVAL with TODD BENTLEY
Did you expect anything else? Were you thinking it was something different? Did you all think I would forget about this event? Of course not! What other event took center stage in the Christian world this past year? Where else did you see the constant seeking of signs, wonders and miracles, with absolutely no sound biblical theology, or doctrine to be found? Where else did you hear the constant talk of visions of angels, calling down of angels, multiple trips to heaven, conversations with the apostle Paul…etc… etc… etc?
Where else did you see notable “church leaders” gather together on one stage to endorse this “revival” and the man who led it? What about the claims of healings which occurred by the kick of a biker boot, or by other violent means? Where else have we seen this? I do not believe this comes as a surprise to anyone. In fact, I believe many of you were expecting this. To be quite honest, I had already selected Todd Bentley and the Lakeland “revival” way back in July of this year, so that ought to tell you something!
For all that is mentioned above…and much more, Todd Bentley and the Lakeland “revival” is….
The Number One Damnable Heresy of 2008!
What will 2009 bring? We’ll just have to wait and see!
Wishing you all a very blessed and joyous New Year 2009!
