Re: Lee Stoneking Addresses UN
It is depressing to me that this man is the "first Apostolic to address the United Nations". When I have time I will watch it. I pray that he did not say any of the crazy stuff he does during sermons. Hopefully just a straightforward testimony with the typical UPC Acts 2:38 exhortation.

Re: Lee Stoneking Addresses UN
It was six minutes forty-six seconds long. He gave a testimony of how he had been raised from the dead by Jesus and that the answer to the world's problems is Jesus. He read Acts 2:38.
Pretty short and to the point.

You mean like Osama's 7000 wives and the Jewish revival? Or Holy Magic Hair? Or maybe the Ukrainian miners that drilled to deep and hear screams from hell

- Every sinner must repent of their sins.
- That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
- That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
- The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

Lee Stoneking was not the minister who lied about the Jewish Revival.

Don't worry, he did a great job representing Apostolics. I watched it live and it was awesome.

Re: Lee Stoneking Addresses UN
I find it hard to believe that the member of the UN would know how to take this strange man. But I give him kudos for the courage go in there and present his case.

That's probably because you're an American?
Anyway, successful preaching is about getting the Word out, NOT about how people "take it".
