In a camp somewhere some speaker began to say "you are about to see an angel, close your eyes, start praying". So people did, and got all excited. Then, he brought the church pastor to the front, and said: " open your eyes, here is your angel".
Beside the fact that it is false doctrine, me being raised in a communist country where cult to personality is a thing which I equated to idolatry, and got me in trouble with the gov and superiors; this continuous exaltation of personalities above measure is double disgusting to me. It is way too close to what I saw in my country for my comfort level. It is almost like a deification of a man.
