9 When you enter the land the LORD your God is giving you, do not learn to imitate the detestable ways of the nations there. 10 Let no one be found among you who sacrifices his son or daughter in [a] the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, 11 or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead. Deuteronomy 18:9-11

This practice was made famous by Shirley McClaine (sp) back in the 1980's. The same New Age spirit that took her on her cosmic trips has guided Bentley! His focus on angelic beings, specifically Emma his guide, was another red flag that he represented a New Age gospel and not the true gospel of Jesus Christ. He mentioned on his website in December about Emma, "When she came, she began to mentor, nurture and opened up a prophetic well. The people in the church began having trances and visions and the pastor began getting words of knowledge and moving in healing."

The following was copied from this link http://www.apostasyalert.org/REFLECTIONS/bentley.htm.

He imparts his Emma spirit on the young people who come up for a touch. He flings the evil spirits upon them while yelling, "blah, blah, blah, blah" – whatever he means by that – and culminates it with slaying them in the "spirit" with the word "BAM!" [see link for example ] Why would he scream "Bam" over people? A clue is in his own words taken from the "The Secret Place" CD of the Fresh Fire conference referenced earlier. Bentley said:

"We’re like little chickens. We’re pretty defenseless and sometimes we’re just going through life pecking away… and then the wolf comes and we don’t even see it coming. Bam! He’s got you!"

Colossians 2:8, 18-19 8 See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the basic principles of this world rather than on Christ. 18 Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you for the prize.
Such a person goes into great detail about what he has seen, and his unspiritual mind puffs him up with idle notions. 19 He has lost connection with the Head, from whom the whole body, supported and held together by its ligaments and sinews, grows as God causes it to grow.

p.s.
that one was in the name of JESUS!!!

[Jermyn Davidson]

yeah he said Jesus' name first, then he invoked the titles. i guess that's one way of doing it.

As for the topic of this thread, I find the whole thing to be troubling and saddening. This is the stuff that the Bible talks about in the last days. Those folks are deceived and I hope they join a church where they can be taught the truth of God's Word.

[Rico]

I guess when he yells out BAM, it signifies him releasing the power of God on someone (in his mind anyway). That part doesn't really bother me all that much. It's the things someone posted about him letting Emma into his "ministering" I find troublesome. That, and the fact he baptizes using the titles.

The guy is nuts or demon possessed or both.

What's with the Blah, blah, blah stuff?
