Re: Prayer by Verbal Bean

“Adulterous spirits are like radar. If they’re in a person they’ll send a signal, and that signal will touch you.”

p. 124
——

I’d say other spirits do the same. Experienced it myself. Interesting way to describe it. I’ve described it like a signal going through me. Then to turn and look, and lo and behold...

Think on this, will adulterous spirits attract only adulterous spirits. Or will they attract other spirits that are similar?

I was going to comment about sexual themed spirits in general.

Re: Prayer by Verbal Bean

I heard an older preacher, who knew Verbal Bean personally, who said that many of the men talking bout his books today would never had let VB in their pulpits. He was very offensive to those who did not believe in the spiritual realm.

No it had nothing to do with the “ spirit realm “ that would be offensive to some it had to do with preaching against sin. He would preach on getting rid of your television, not paying tithes, getting rid of board ran churches ect... that’s why he would not be excepted. I have to elders I know that set under him and told me this. Plus he preached for a lot of the churches we fellowship out here in California.

Thats when he died, he was on his way to California. That alone ought to tell you something... j/k

He did preach against sin, yet you ought to go ask your elders what he related to sin? That was spirits! He would call T.V a spirit of lust your entertaining as you watch. He mentioned thrones in church’s of adultery, prince spirits in county’s, a spirit of cigarettes. I could give you more examples, he gave an example that there was a church that had thrones of sexual perversion in the church. One morning he woke up and there naked women dancing in front of his bed the spirit manifested itself. You know what, preachers called him nuts, your out of your mind (sounds like today) until it happened to one of the ones that ridiculed him! Depression, anxiety, suicides were not a chemical imbalance, yet a spirit that is afflicting, oppressing, or possessing the individual. The elders that taught us about the spirit realm would not be welcome today, the majority of the church today are more interested in mega church revival.

Now days the church believes the chemical imbalance and promotes going to get meds. Ours does

Re: Prayer by Verbal Bean

I’m not looking for things to disagree with.

I do like where VB encouraged the ministers to stay with the revival even when the pastors wife starts attacking you.
