Todd Bentley - what do you think??
Not so long ago we saw part of a "healing outpouring" of Todds on dvd. When i saw it i wasnt convinced. Maybe sceptical, maybe negative or maybe realistic. However, ever since that wednesday night i havent been able to get very far away from todd in my thoughts. So i thought im in on a Saturday night on alone i think ill flick on the god channel and watch a bit more of Todd Bentley.
So hear i am, about 10mins into it i was ready to blog but i thought id give him more of a chance, so ive been watching the God channel and Todd Bentley for about 2 1/2 hours now, and i just dont get it!! I find it rather too hyped!! But what im not sure of is whether its the whole thing i don't quite believe in ie-the healing or whether its just the guy Todd - maybe if a different person led it through i would feel different. But then how judgemental is that of me, its not what he looks like or what clothes he wears its just it like "Ive got the power" is the only way to discribe it!!
so has anyone seen Todd Bentleys healing outpourings or heard of him or have an opinion... please???

I went to a thing where people were getting healed...AGES ago, and I too was a bit sceptical. Again, I had an issue with the power, but folks were staggereing up and skipping back, so I closed my eyes and thanked God for such a visible clue to his presence. However, I was introduced to the guy afterwards and when he found out I was SA he totally dissed my experience - I was not baptised with the Holy Spirit, in fact, I was not baptised at all, and so was a lost cause to him! For the first, but not the last, time in my life I stayed awake fighting with the devil.
So, can;t help on Todd and don;t know how I feel about healers!
We have been following the Bentley "Revival" almost daily for months and can only say KEEP AWAY! See what happened to a church he went to in the UK:

To me this sounds and looks like madhouse + hell.
Bentley's power is clearly not from God. He is using occult practices, Kundalini yoga practices (see Youtube); he is worshipping and using angels, which the Bible forbids: his personal angel Emma who collects money for him etc.; he sees himself as the "New Christ" - not joking, "in the fullness of time", like Jesus, God has made him to be the "New King" (in his "commissioning" -seiner "Amtseinführung"- through some "apostles" like Peter Wagner and Rick Joyner on 23 June, videos on Youtube); he is mocking the Holy Spirit:
see for instance LAKELAND BAPTISM EXTRAVAGANZA

There is so much more, but we don't have time at the moment to write more, as our daughter is getting married in a few days' time.
