Re: Dowsing AKA Water Witching

If I am not misrembering (a George Bush word) I believe I know a UPC preacher who in his pre church days was a dowser.

Two obvious explanations come to mind for that ability;

1. Could be that it is a tool Satan uses to exhibit power even if the person doing it does not realize or want it to be a demonic thing.
3. Could be that this is one of the abilities some people have using some of that vast part of our brain scientists say we do not use for any known purpose. I believe we could have abilities we have not discovered yet or at least some people do. I have an ESP story I was personally involved in I will relate sometime.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

Quote from Ethel Goss (widow of 1st UPC Gen Supt. Howard Goss) book "The Winds of God"

I believe its your second explanation, though someone could attribute that to Satan if they wish to.
