UPDATE on Bro Stoneking:

He went into surgery about 1:30 p.m. Eastern time. A couple hours later the nurses brought an update reassuring us that all was going well. Thank You Jesus!

Bro. Lee Stoneking's open-heart surgery was very successful today. He is resting well. Believing God for a speedy recovery. Thanks so much for praying!

Re: Bro. Lee Stoneking -WNOP
 

I can think of a whole lot of others who need prayer besides the UPC rock star.

Re: Bro. Lee Stoneking -WNOP
 

Go ahead and list them and we will pray.....

Re: Bro. Lee Stoneking -WNOP
 

I will never understand some people on this forum. :(

Re: Bro. Lee Stoneking -WNOP
 

Ask and you shall receive! My understanding is that Bro. Stoneking called someone from the hospital, and asked for prayer. That person posted it on Facebook. World Network of Prayer also sent out an Urgent Prayer Request.
My daughter saw it on Facebook and called me. I immediately posted it on my Facebook timeline, sent an e-mail to our church family, sent it to my siblings (9) and our six adult children, sent it to friends in ministry and friends not necessarily in ministry. I would have done the same for you too, RandyWayne!
Bro. Lee Stoneking is NOT a UPC rock star.
We are ALL souls for whom Christ died! GOD is no respector of persons!

Amen! Again aint nothing more powerful then saints coming together and AGREEING in prayer

Re: Bro. Lee Stoneking -WNOP
 

I'm just waiting for the new fake stories that he's going to tell about this experience. Stay tuned...

Re: Bro. Lee Stoneking -WNOP
 

houston,
you are basically accusing Bro. Stoneking of lying about his previous and now this experience. You could be falsely accusing and that's not good!

Re: Bro. Lee Stoneking -WNOP
 

best thing is let's pray for him....we do know that he is sick and in the hospital...God will judge the rest....and as you pray I would ask for you to pray for me too. Thanks so much and blessings to all.

Re: Bro. Lee Stoneking -WNOP
 

Whether one agrees with LS or not, he is a sick man & is need of prayer. Let us suck up our aggravations, dislike or even distain from some & pray a prayer. I did & I am NO fan of his exactly, God loves him so should I.

Be blessed LS!

Re: Bro. Lee Stoneking -WNOP
 

I pray for healing for the pope and the president of the Latter Day Saints if I know they're ill. How many oneness pentecostals (or any Christian for that matter) honestly pray for other individuals in other Christian sects as fervently as they do one of their own?

For example, I pray for the prayer requests on the forum. I may not know their beliefs but I do know their need.

Re: Bro. Lee Stoneking -WNOP
 

Bottom line, when a sincere prayer request is made, the best response is to pray and be supportive.

Be classy and gracious. If you consider Bro. Stoneking to be *the enemy*, then consider this:

Proverbs 24:17 "Rejoice not when thine enemy falleth, and let not thine heart be glad when he stumbleth:"

Re: Bro. Lee Stoneking -WNOP
 

When I read of a prayer request on this forum, I always stop and pray for that request right then...before I forget.

I like you, RandyWayne. I really do. But you ought to be ashamed of this post...

Re: Bro. Lee Stoneking -WNOP
 

Well said!

Re: Bro. Lee Stoneking -WNOP
 

Its not what we are or who we may be, what denomination or faith we live....if someone is in need of prayers, pray for them! God is the ONLY one who will judge us for all of our actions and deeds...rather they be right or wrong. I was in service one night of a 2 week revival being held by Bro Stoneking, and after seeing the graphic pictures of what had happened to him , he is a miracle to be alive ~Praying for Bro S~

Re: Bro. Lee Stoneking -WNOP
 

:thumbsup

I was at the services he conducted in the days prior to his first heart attack and we were closely familiar with what happened in the days to follow. It was a miracle and we know people who were sitting at his hospital bed and communicating what occurred. He has had a significant impact on the lives of myself and my family and I will pray for him. Just as I do for others.

Re: Bro. Lee Stoneking -WNOP
 

Bro. L.S. is still counted as my Bro. even if he does state that Jesus is the second person of the GOD HEAD.
I pray for all those that are called by the FALSE name of GOD and those that are called by HIS true name.
I pray for thiose in leadership whether of the body of GOD or our USA.
We have to follow the word of GOD or be lost.
OH it hast to be from the heart or all the praying is not any thing nor will it help any thing.

Re: Bro. Lee Stoneking -WNOP
 

I agree. I have a lot of issues with LS but he is a child of God and when he is ill a thread requesting prayer for him should not have snide comments in it. There is a time and a place for everything and this was not it. Apparently civility, class, and decency are hard to find these days.

Re: Bro. Lee Stoneking -WNOP
 

You seem very bitter, maybe it is you that needs prayer?

Re: Bro. Lee Stoneking -WNOP
 

He doesn't state Jesus is the second person of the Godhead. You are one confused individual

For those who have never read Brother Lee Stonekings miracle, this is it.

Here's the statement the doctor released.
_____________________________________________
Official Medical Report:

On November 12, 2003, Brother Stoneking suffered a cardiac arrest due to a massive heart attack. He suffered this ventricular fibrillation arrest at the airport in Sydney, Australia.

Ventricular fibrillation (VF) is the most commonly identified arrhythmia in cardiac arrest patients. This arrhythmia is a severe derangement of the heartbeat that usually ends in death within minutes unless corrective measures are promptly taken. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) was administered by bystanders until paramedics could arrive. I quote a letter I received from Dr. Mark Pitney in Australia (Brother Stoneking’s attending physician while in the hospital overseas): “Even with intubation (a breathing tube in place), paramedic CPR and repeated cardioversions (shocks to the heart—ten total shocks! ), a stable rhythm (heartbeat) and output (circulation) was not gained for thirty minutes.”

Basically, in common everyday vernacular, Brother Stoneking was dead for thirty minutes. The first miracle of this was that he lived at all. Sudden cardiac death accounts for approximately 300,000 deaths per year in the United States, of which 75-80% are due to VF. More deaths are attributable to VF than to lung cancer, breast cancer, or AIDS. A major adverse outcome from a VF event is anoxic encephalopathy (brain damage due to lack of oxygen), which occurs in 30-80% of patients. Irreversible brain damage usually occurs within 6 minutes. Again, according to Brother Stoneking’s reports and the doctors I spoke with directly in Australia, no adequate heartbeat or circulation was established for thirty minutes.

When he collapsed, he struck his head on the concrete floor causing large hematomas. As if a heart attack and VF arrest were not enough, this was a terribly complicating set of events. A hematoma is a localized mass of blood confined within a space. So when he fell he developed blood on the brain. The reason this complicates matters so, is that the number one treatment for a patient having a heart attack is the use of powerful blood thinners. Since he had bleeding on the brain he could not undergo any treatment for his heart attack. Also, the fall caused a fracture of his skull.

He was taken to the cardiac catheterization lab (a special procedure room used to take angiograms or pictures of the arteries of the heart). There they “initially” felt he needed to have open-heart surgery. However, when I spoke with Dr. Pitney he stated to me, “I will send you Mr. Stoneking’s films for you and your colleagues to look at because I can’t explain what happened between the first shot and the second shot!” What he meant by this was, with the first pictures taken it looked as though Brother Stoneking would need three to four bypasses because it looked like he had several severe blockages. However in the very next picture his blockages looked better.

Because of this miraculous finding, as well as, a spontaneous and what I can only explain as miraculous resolution of his heart attack, it was felt by his neurologist and cardiologist in Sydney that he could be stabilized and sent back to the states for any procedures he might require. Miraculously, and that is the only words I can use because it is a miracle, Brother Stoneking recovered in Sydney without any brain damage.

Upon getting him back to the states we readmitted him to the hospital and my colleagues and I began our own work-up. The MRI of his brain here miraculously showed “no evidence of bleeding or even prior bleeding.” This is a documented miracle, because I have a CT scan report from Australia that shows blood on the brain. We also did a repeat CT scan after the MRI results to better assess his skull fracture. I was in the CT room with Bro. Stoneking and the radiologist kept getting more and more pictures and questioned me about whether the doctors in Sydney were correct about the skull fracture because the only fracture he could find on CT here was one that looked “old." This was another miracle!!

Bro. Stoneking finally underwent successful balloon angioplasty and stent to a 100% blocked right coronary artery. The final miracle of it all was discovered in our Cath Lab here in the states. Brother Stoneking’s heart was functioning at about half of what it should. As a result of this he had some fluid on his lungs in Australia, a common complication following a heart attack of this magnitude. With any heart attack there is usually some residual damage and this can be indefinite and can take up to 6 months for stunned myocardium (heart muscle) to recover, if it recovers at all. When we reassessed his heart function here, his heart function was entirely normal!!!

I can truly say that Brother Stoneking’s recovery and medical course is miraculous. He was nicknamed the “miracle patient” at our hospital and people would come by just to see and talk with him. To God be the glory!! God is still in the miracle working business in the 21st century!

Re: Bro. Lee Stoneking -WNOP
 

I have been praying for Bro. Stoneking since I first saw that you mention it Sis. Falla. I went to my facebook page to see if my brother had posted anything, and he had heard the news from an individual that Bro. Stoneking called. I have heard that he is doing well. I can hardly wait to hear him preach at Passing the Mantle again this year.

Re: Bro. Lee Stoneking -WNOP
 

Let's all pray the same fervent prayer for ex-Pope Benedict as for Lee Stoneking. Ex-Pope Benedict has many physical needs also. So, when you pray for bro. Stoneking's healing, please pray for the healing of ex-Pope Benedict also.

Re: Bro. Lee Stoneking -WNOP
 

GREAT LORD GOD, we come before you humbly, yet boldly asking that you would look down upon ex pope Benedict. LORD, your Word tells us that You are no respector of persons. Ex pope has many physical needs and also, more importantly, the need to be born again. LORD, if You would see fit, touch this dear man's body and heal him of his physical needs and cause him to feel his need of the HOLY GHOST, LORD, there is NOTHING IMPOSSIBLE with YOU! Thank You for what You will see fit to do, in Jesus Name!

Amen, I agree.

When it comes to LS's own experiences I doubt they are fake. Exaggerated a bit? Maybe but I believe there is substance to them
