Re: Freddy Clark Live at San Diego

Ok look. There are certain "gimicks" that these kinds of people do or use. I was at a meeting once where a well known UPC "prophet" was warming the folks up for the gifts to operate.

So he goes over the congregation and zooms in on this one woman. He looks at her and says "You have borderline anemia"...now he could have been wrong...what is borderline anemia? Anyways, this woman had anemia and you could tell by looking at her face. Dark circles under the eyes, face a little pale.

So too at this event Freddie Clark was doing, he picks out some obese folks and declares God told him they had back problems...I was like, what fat person doesn't?!?!

But I've seen this sort of things many times before. No disrespect brother Mike but I don't know what went on with your situation but I feel like some others do when I am in one of these "services"..that there are tricks of the trade these men use. In fact the next service he allowed his son to work over the crowd. It seemed like he was trained to do exactly what his dad did.

In fact it reminded me of the cold readings psychics do...Put hand to forehead. Point to a generalized area and say something like "Is there a...I want to say it starts with an R? A ray over here or maybe someone has a family member that is named Ray? or...oh wait there is a hand. Yes? Ok you have a brother named Ray? And he is in jail now? Ok good"

Im serious. I don't know if they just get lucky sometimes or perhaps they are used in the gifts but hearing from God once about one person in the entire congregation makes for dull healing meetings so they have to fill in the blanks or what...

But I have gone to plenty of these with faith and an open mind and left disappointed at what I saw
