Chester Hensley

Good Morning,
I would like to comment about the articles on Chester Hensley. I knew Rev. Hensley personally and he was a great Prophet. He never expected to rise from the dead as some would say. God took him home. I believe it to be a punishment to some in the church at the time. You never know what you have until it is gone. I witnessed miracles while under his ministry. It is a great loss to the world for him to be gone. I think about him almost every day and wish I had him back. The world today could sure use him.

Erm....ok. I don't think the Lord actually said that though.

Wow! I didn't realize God punishes people in churches by killing their pastor. Hmmmm.......

LOL!!! Also I guess I forgot that God held Oral Roberts hostage that time and threatened to kill him if he did not raise enough money for the hospital he was starting. (according to Oral anyway).

Re: Chester Hensley

Never heard of Chester Hensley. However, I was listening to an old message of LE Westberg today, and he mentioned the name Chester Hensley. He made a comment along the lines that he had seen Chester Hensley used mightily by God, but that he got away from truth. He said he had seen CH perform miracles, but made it sound CH died lost. He even said something about being caught in a hotel room with a 16 yo girl...
