Why don't you join us, Hoovie ???

Probably an improper question but...

if this man is a cult leader, or closely associated with a known cult, I can't classify him a Christian.

So why should I pray for him?

Should we pray for persecuted Mormons? Persecuted JW's? Persecuted Hindus?

Maybe I would pray for this guy because he is human and facing injustice-- not because he is a Christian as it appears that he isn't a Christian.


I am unsure if Paul would even pray for him, if this guy is a false prophet.

Why should I?


This reads so calloused, I know.

Oh well.

Is this guy spreading the truth of God's Word?

If he was in America and his church was down the street, would you be a member there?


The more I think about this, I think that DKB could be leading the UPCI to a place where we are "looking their way".

If he is our brother, then who else is our brother?


Does anyone really knows if he has spoken in tongues yet?

Don't Branhamites reject glossalia as necessary initial evidence?

Thanks Reckart for the answer: "I disagree with you that they must speak in tongues. ...I would be judge if I said they did not have the Holy Ghost, if they did not speak with tongues." (William Branham, Questions and Answers, 1969, Aug 30th, Jeffersonville, Ind).

Surely ... Bernard is not recognizing this movement as remotely "Apostolic" ....?????
