Yes, you can trust God's Word. Jesus said in... Matthew 7:7-8
Ask, Seek, Knock
7 “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.
1 Thessalonians 5:20-21
20 do not utterly reject [a]prophecies, 21 but examine everything; hold firmly to that which is good,.
God speaks in different ways...and we need to not put God in a box... From my own experience... God is wild and not tamable...:)
What is my experience...missionary daughter... God is trustworthy and I have seen Him do amazing things. Trust Him... There is no verse that says God does not speak thru dreams and visions...Acts 2:17, In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people; your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams. Jesus said if you seek me you will find me...
Folks must be free to have their own views, but when they start walking around criticizing someone because he doesn't fit into his own narrow and self-defined understanding of God and Scripture, they should put on the brakes.
This is the treatment Jesus received at the hand of the Jews. And when you start behaving or talking like the Jewish leaders who murdered Christ, you should really check yourself, and ask if you aren't in danger of ending up in the same location.
Personally, I think PM is totally based and his scriptural understanding is excellent.
Hey, he's not for everyone, right? Why do people feel the need to raise their OWN view of scripture and God and attack someone else's?
The ONLY one who is for everyone is Christ. People can disagree with PM, but they should leave their own prejudices and any predilection to judge as if THEY are authorities at the door.
Too many in this community and on the Right in particular find ways to silence those they don't agree with religiously. If you're in the Q movement but don't believe in their God you must be a Satanist, then try to silence you. If you're in the Q movement, believe in their God, but don't believe like they do, they say you're in conflict with scripture or blasphemous and try to silence you.
It's a lot like the crazies on the Left I've found. They're all for freedom as long as you think and believe like them. It's disgusting.
You can find his books on Amazon just search Praying Medic and each one gives a description. He seems to border on the line of those charismatic heretics that flop around on tv claiming to be getting demons out and healing grandma while also throwing in a mix of some new-age blasphemy like "How to appear in the courts of heaven" "How to know when you're being accused"
Jesus healed and cast out demons from numerous people, and commissioned his followers to do the same. How is this blasphemous? You sound like the Pharisees who accused Christ of performing miracles through Beelzebub. I've personally witnessed and experienced miraculous healing and deliverances myself.
I don't know much about the courts of heaven concept but there was indeed a heavenly court in Zechariah 3 where Satan functioned as the accuser. In fact, Satan was called the "accuser of the brethren" in Revelation. That's why Jesus is our mediator before God the judge. He's our defense attorney, so to speak. Sounds Biblical to me.
Because these televangelists and most charismatics do not want you to go to the doctor to confirm the healing, many many many people die because of this. Christ healed people, he didn't fake it and if hospitals like today were around back then he would encourage the people to keep seeing the doctors.
This is a good point that should NOT be overlooked.
The self proclaimed spiritually gifted high profile and profitable groups and individuals do correlate to spiritual abuse in one form or another. I'm not saying PM is a specific case, but its a common phenomenon among the charismatics. Why? They assume the written Word is not enough for life and godliness, and that experiential divine encounters are necessary for the next level. This typically appeals to the emotional side and the sensuous side of human behavior (what is experienced with the senses is "really real", therefore, God) and a number of pitfalls and painful experiences can and will result from that eventually. Caveat emptor. Be careful who you follow.
Care to explain which of his views are blasphemous? I know he talks a lot about dreams and healing. Last I checked, both are Biblical. God talks to his people through dreams many times in the Bible. Jesus performed numerous healing miracles and commissioned his followers to do the same.
No he doesn't. It's entirely possible that YOU do, and that's why you don't like what he has to say.
Ahh, I get it - everyone but YOU is a blasphemer. Good luck with that.
Are you sure the bible 100% correct?
By definition it has to be.

Such as? Mainly just listened to his Q content and not so much the religious aspect. I'm curious.
FYI: These guys are against the gifts of the Holy Spirit and their application in the life of Christians. Now THAT is in conflict with scripture.

In my view.
criticism of a high profile self proclaimed spiritually gifted individual = compare to Pharisees persecuting Jesus.
That fallacy didn't take long at all.

Definitely blasphemous, defiantly demonic.

For more info, do some research on "New Apostolic Reformation and spiritual abuse".

Cool they can be heretics of heretics of heretics of schismatics.
SophiatheCopt: Agreed.
New Age gonna New Age.
Sounds like some divide and conquer bullshit. Want to get called out for glowing?
