It's unfortunate, but altogether too true, that things are the way they are, these days. We, therefore, must separate ourselves from this mess, and keep ourselves pure and our covenant with God true.

What is the norm? Illiteracy or witchcraft?
And would you mind giving examples in context of how it happens in churches either in the thread or in PM?
What Ive found is because a lack of biblical knowledge and discernment a lot of this mess slips under the radar undetected...we have become a "big tent" for all things spiritual and of it appeals to our flesh we are quick to adopt it as doctrine or at least accepted behaviour.
When Katherine and I had just gotten married, she started spending time with some of the older women in the church and having "prayer meetings" bro, it was some off the wall stuff going on.
Im not looking for ammo against any organization or as a way to denigrate corporate meetings.
I personally feel that its not just about trying to manipulate people and situations but also we try to manipulate God....
