Dan seems to think that I have something AGAINST the man. I do not. Neither do I doubt that he is a Prophet. But, if he is truly a prophet, he needs to be mentored by a mature Prophet. He may not even be aware of how he is being led. I've seen novice Prophets that did not fully realize by what spirit they were led or how easily it was to be led by the spirit of error.
The initial despair that I expressed in the beginning had to do with the fact that Apostolics seem to be so gullible in accepting some of these things that they seem to have little knowledge of and what seems to be a shift in the movement. As I stated before, I felt much better after last nights service.
More later. I just got a call from some local folk that want to see me at Shoney's in a few minutes.

Do you think some "prophets" use gimicks to make someone think they know stuff about you? For example, I heard a man call a woman out once and sais she had borderline anemia...well I sat there and wondered how many women don't have anemia and the I also recognized the dark circles under her eyes could be a sign that she has anemia. I wonder how many do this kind of stuff until they get one right and they hype the correct ones and ignore the misses
