FREAKSHOW

FOR A LIMITED ENGAGEMENT:
@ THE FIRST UNITED ASSEMBLY OF THE PENTECOSTAL BAPTIST CHURCH OF GOD IN CHRIST
COME SEE THE ALMIGHTY, THE ALL POWERFUL, THE EVER-LIVING, THE ONE AND ONLY KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS--
JESUS!
Performing all his best!
Healings, limb growth, financial breakthroughs, gold teeth and GLORY DUST!!
(due to circumstances beyond our control, Jesus will not be performing salvations or changing lives during his performance)
Bring your check books, ATM cards, credit cards and the shirt off your back and be prepared to receive your blessing!



From the internet--
You can also watch what God is doing in Lakeland on GOD TV or live on our website nightly at 7pm EST at 
www.freshfire.ca
"Holy Spirit fall! God is here!"
"God is in Galt"
"Another great week of Glory in Galt"
"Come Get Some!"

Can I pose a question? If God is omnipresent, why is he moving only in these specific places? Is he not every where? Is it because these individuals running the show have prayed and fasted and tithed and every other religious act they can think of? Is it because he is sovereign? Or is it God at all?

Please take into consideration the words of Jesus in Matthew 24-
"23 At that time if anyone says to you, 'Look, here is the Christ!' or, 'There he is!' do not believe it. 24 For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect--if that were possible. 25 See, I have told you ahead of time. 26 "So if anyone tells you, 'There he is, out in the desert,' do not go out; or, 'Here he is, in the inner rooms,' do not believe it. 27 For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man."
Is the event that is occurring in Lakeland visible like lightening? Or is it a repeat of what happened in Pensacola? It is very similar to what happened in Brownsville over ten years ago. I guess God ran out of fresh material to use so he dug into his archives of reruns. God saved me in 1997 when two ministry team members came to our church from Brownsville. Mind you it is not Brownsville that gets the Glory, it is God. But what started out as a genuine and unique move of God soon became a religious circus. The new religious fad is now Lakeland and all the "Christians" are running there to receive a touch from God. So God can't touch you where you are? Didn't John the Baptist say "the Kingdom of God is here"? meaning with you? 
Jesus said that even the church would be deceived if that were possible. What we are witnessing is something counterfeit and people who are endorsing it obviously aren't "elected" because they have been duped--and Jesus said that the elected being duped is not possible. How can I be so sure of what I am saying? Because that "revival fire" has spread to a little church in Galt, CA where I experienced the worst nightmare of my life. The first sign of revival is repentance and getting right with God. I was lied to and used by the leadership of this church, and hurt beyond measure and I made that clear to them. Guess what? I haven't received any phone calls from them expressing repentance or forgiveness for what they have done to me and my family. Because of that experience, my family is on the verge of bankruptcy. So if that hasn't occurred, then why is God moving there? So I question if it is God at all and not just another marketing ploy to bring more money into the pockets of these Christian magicians?

Are lives changed? Are the healings real? Why isn't the entire area getting saved? Is God not powerful enough to do that? Five thousand were saved during Peter's first sermon in the book of Acts and all that is happening in Lakeland and Galt is church people floating to the next fad, just like the pharisees were into what John the Baptist was doing--it must be God because Bob Jones and CBN and Charisma says so! If I sound bitter, it is because I am! I am tired of people acting one way and treating others another and then claim to be an usher for a move of God. Todd Bently is no different from Dave Ross in Galt or John Arnott , John Kilpatrick or John Wesley. They are/were all men capable of sin and mistakes--which is why my trust is in God. So don't expect me in Lakeland--I'd rather spend the money (if I had it) in Disneyworld. The entertainment is way better and it is more fun!!!
