Charismatic Identification Process

[Mr. Smith]

If you answer, "Yes" to 3 or more of these questions, you are a charismatic. I'm just getting this list started so feel free to add a question or two to the list.



1) Have you ever said, "Hmmm, good point" to anything Kim Clement has ever said?

2) Have you ever thought laughing for 20 minutes in church when no one told a joke was a good idea?

3) When one of the 400 people in attendance stood up and said, "Yes!!" when the guest evangelist said, "Is there anyone here named "Bob?", have you ever said, "That was God!!"

4) Have you ever hustled to the bank to max out your credit card to put the money in the offering when the guest evangelist told you to?

5) Have you never, ever considered why no one is ever healed of anything you can actually verify?

6) Do you use the TBN Praise-a-thon money vultures as a model for taking offerings in your church?

My answers:

1) Who?

2) No. But I seldom laugh at all anymore.

3) There is actually a long running website for a "church" that "worships" a "god" named Bob. http://www.subgenius.com/

4) My pastor said to do that once. And no.

5) No. I have always considered this.

6) Fellowshipping with a group that pays its own way negates that opportunity.

You're obviously no charismatic. Congratulations!

I said yes to all the above....

The only one I said "yes" to was number 1.

So I guess I don't qualify as a Charismatic.

Maybe I need to change my signature and my business card.

P.S. The web site on my card does not work and I don't know how to fix that. The young man that set up the site is no longer in contact with me and the last I heard from him he was now a young lady in New England.

Actually, number one may just trump the rest of the questions. What in the world did that fruit loop say that you liked???

I can't remember anything specific right now.
I've read several of his prophecies that have been part of The Elijah List.

Actually, another identification that you might be a Charismatic is

--You receive the Elijah list ( http://www.elijahlist.com/ )in your email every day, read it, and then forward it to your friends

I've never hear of the Elijah list. Kim Clement is correct on, probably, 20 prophecies each year. Problem is, he makes about a thousand predictions.

not a very good track record, is it?

The Elijah list publishes prophecies and teaching, also has CD's and literature available, and lists conferences and meetings that are going on. It's probably a modern or online equivalent of the old "Voice of Healing" magazine that Gordon Lindsey started back in the nineteen fifties to promote and report on different evangelists.

Well with a thousand prophecies a year that mean that at 20% is 200 correct ones per year....that is a lot of accuarcy.
