I don't believe anything out of Lakeland. This guy is a serious nut, a confessed child molestor--he was 17 and his victim was 7. If he repented then God can forgive, but when it came out years later he denied it until he was confronted with his own "confession."
Anyone should be able to judge this "revival." But you can't judge by "Miracles." God is merciful and is always willing to perform miracles. He heals by faith--if you believe in him and his miracle working power then you can receive a miracle. But that does not validate the minister or the movement. That error goes back to Branhamism. You must judge the "revival" by the word that is preached. And Bently--in my opinion--is preaching NO Word. He rarely takes a Bible to the pulpit!!

Maybe for you it isn't but at our house we don't allow OMG. I somehow doubt that the Jews were being told to refrain from using the name Jesus in vain. Whatever name people use to refer to God ought to be kept sacred. I have heard preachers say things like, "My God, son, what were you thinking." It was no different than when my Grandfather said it, it was still taking the name in vain, IMO.
