If someone tells you something and you don't have a reason to not believe it, and then share it publicly ... is it your fault for trusting what was told to you?
We know Stoneking believes in faith and believes God can do anything. I don't know of any other person who is as serious about faith as he is. So it doesn't surprise me that he believed what was told to him.

Yes, if you are a man of God standing behind a pulpit you are responsible for vetting "stories" you tell as fact. LS is famous for stories that are discredited later. Remember the "voices from hell"?
Years ago when he was a topic here I mentioned that I had heard him in person once at BOTT and then online quite a few other times and not once did I heard one of these supposed "masterpiece" sermons. I pointed out that in fact his sermons mostly seem to be wild stories and red meat catch phrases used to whip an old time Oneness Pentecostal crowd into a frenzy. The response at that time from some of his syncophants...er.......fans on here was "well.......he builds faith".

"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."
