This article is called, “THE STRANGE WORLD OF THE SUPERNATURAL.” Oh, it must really exist because “SID ROTH” Says so. Yes, he has his own television show by the same name. And simply put it is strange and weird. (that is being nice about it). I want a response in this article and especially the videos I will post here. I want you to tell me if you believe this and if you think “this is of God? I am a saved, born-again Christian by the blood of Jesus Christ. He is my Lord and Savior. I have been saved and served God for 48 years. This photo is Smith Wigglesworth. (1859-1947).

Let me lay the groundwork for this video. I am familiar with the man named “SMITH WIGGLESWORTH.” He was a Pentecostal preacher and as usual, they claim he performed many miracles. He was one of the early leaders who PUSHED the tongues and miracle movement. Smith Wigglesworth was really “FAMOUS” for kicking, slapping and punching people, to accomplish his healings and miracles. Newspapers reported that his healings could be incredibly violent. Pentecostal’s claim he raised 14 people from the dead.  HUMMMMM. I am posting very short videos, and they are worth watching.

After all, its SUPERNATURAL. So, Smith is held as one of the patron saints of the Pentecostal Denomination. 1. I have heard this story before, of the baby, and 1.I never believed it. 2. I still do not believe it. 3. I do not believe that God was anywhere near it. (YOU DECIDE). Here is the video so Please watch. IT IS JUST 1 MINUTES AND 45 SECONDS LONG.

MORE SIGNS WONDERS AND MIRACLES-ITS SUPERNATURAL

Do you really believe this fake miracle? Or does this make you sick at your stomach? If it had been real and if it had been my 2-month-old baby, Smith Wigglesworth would be in a very hot place, and I would be in jail. I guess I am on a roll so forgive me for that. I will have to post another one that should make you laugh so hard your belly will hurt. 

Get the pop-corn and soda ready for this one. I am very familiar with it. This one is Elliots resurrection from the dead. I saw the interview with Elliots boss, he fired Elliot 1 week before the fake resurrection. Elliot wanted 3 of his co-workers to carry his casket in the church, and they said NO. In addition, they claimed Elliots body had just come from a local funeral home, but it did not. HE HAD BEEN DEAD FOR 3 DAYS. LOL. The named funeral home sued the church for defamation and won millions. Here is the truly SAD part of this video. The people in this church went wild and believed this fake resurrection. 

Here you go, a known planned and fake resurrection. DO YOU REALLY THINK THAT GOD APPROVES OF THIS STUFF? Let me show you what God says in His Word. Matthew 7:22-23 Jesus said, “Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? ²³ And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. This is an eternal price to pay for such mockery against God.

It is known that Pastor Alpha Lukau was in on the fake resurrection of Elliot and played his part, and finally had to admit it. But he is still there being the Pastor. Here is how they advertise him: “Pastor Alph Lukau is a Bible Scholar, renowned International Speaker and a Power Televangelist. He is also the founder and General Overseer of Alleluia Ministries International and ministers in different platforms around the world. Church membership is in the multi-thousands.

Pastor Alph Lukau is known around the world as the Apostle of Faith. A man of great humility, integrity and complete submission to God. Under this anointing thousands of people around the world have experienced unique miracles, healings, signs and wonders.”  Be careful because evil spirits can imitate spiritual gifts and use them to confuse and deceive people.

Then you also have Pastor, Nana Poku Who ‘Heals’ Female Church Members, “By Giving Them Passionate Kisses.” Something is wrong with this picture, and I find no scripture for it. To many Pentecostals make it up as they go along, and claim it is of the Holy Spirit. I personally believe it is one of 3 things: 1. SUPERNATURAL, 2. SUPER-SPIRITUAL, AND 3. SUPER-STUPIDITIES. Matthew 15:14 “Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.” You Choose?

HERE IS HOW TO SPEAK IN TONGUES.

I started this article with Sid Roth and his television program show called “ITS SUPERNATURAL.” Since Sid is such an expert then we all should believe and listen to what he says. CORRECT? If ANYONE should know about TONGUES, it would be good ole brother Sid. So here is a very, very short video clip (2 minute’s long). of Sid telling everyone how to speak in tongues. “You start by saying “baby words” (like gooo gooo and da da) then you say them faster and faster and faster-NOW YOU ARE SPEAKING IN TONGUES-HIS WORDS. Dear reader we all call that GIBERISH. THAT IS NOT WHAT TONGUES WERE IN THE BIBLE. REAL TONGUES WERE DIALETCS, KNOWN LANGUAGES. If you believe Sid, then you really need help.

I remember the very night I was saved and born again by the blood of Jesus Christ. I saw myself as a lost sinner and repented and turned to God for SALVATION. I really understood that I was a sinner and that my sins put Jesus Christ on His cross. Jesus Christ died in my place and paid the penalty for my sins. I called out to God for his mercy and grace, and I was saved that very moment. THE HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD PLACED ME IN THE BODY OF CHRIST. 

Here is what Jesus told us the Holy Spirit would do when He would send Him. John 16:7-14 “Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.⁸ And when he is come, he will reprove ( CONVICT) he world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: ⁹ Of sin, because they believe not on me; ¹⁰ Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; ¹¹ Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.

¹² I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. ¹³ Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you, things to come. ¹⁴ He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine and shall shew it unto you. PLEASE WATCH THIS VIDEO CLIP AND TELL ME IF THIS IS WHAT JESUS WAS TALKING ABOUT.

Is this the proof or evidence of Salvation? “ABSOLUTELY NOT.” Ephesians 2:8-9 “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: ⁹ Not of works, lest any man should boast.” I think what you are seeing in this video is emotionalism and ecstatic utterance. So, do you consider this Praise and Worship? Or is it personal Religious Experience? Recognition of sin, Repentance of sin, and faith in Christ will get you to heaven. NOT PERSONAL RELIGIOUS EXPERIENCES. Why do I ask you this question? Many of my Pentecostal friends always say, “LET ME TELL YOU WHAT I HAVE EXPERIENCED.” You better KNOW for a fact, that your experience is Biblical.

CONCLUSION 

My goal in this post is NOT to beat up or condemn all “PENTECOSTALS.” I have Pentecostal friends. I have been in ministry with Pentecostal friends. No, we do not agree over everything, but there is one thing we better agree on if you are going to heaven. JESUS CHRIST and His payment for our sins. John 8:24 “I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he (THE MESSIAH THE SAVIOR), ye shall die in your sins.” God’s problem with mankind goes all the way back to the garden of Eden when our original parents SINNED. NO ONE WANTS TO TALK ABOUT THE SIN ISSUE. This is what broke mankind’s relationship and fellowship with God. 

The sin issue is what put Jesus on the cross. He died and paid for everyone’s sins, he had none of his own. The resurrection of Jesus was Gods stamp of approval that he had accepted the sacrifice, for sin, once and for all. I AM IN CHRIST, I HAVE BEEN SAVED, REDEEMED AND CHANGED. II Corinthians 5:17 “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.”

Now we can disagree. Every instance in the Bible of TONGUES all pointed back to Act chapter 2. And every instance of tongues was “KNOWN LANGUAGES-DIALECTS of that day. The purpose of this gift was to spread the gospel of Christ all over the world, and CEASED, when the New Testament was completed. This gift did cease with the death of the Apostles in the first century. It ceased just as the bible said it would. I Corinthian 13:8-10. It ceased until 1901 when a young girl started peeping and muttering in her Sunday School class. She spoke NO known language as the Apostles did, or as the Bible identified. They Proclaimed Her ecstatic utterance was the fulfillment of Joel 2:28. No, it was not. The Azusa Street Revival started, and Pentecostalism started. I Corinthians 14:19 Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue.”

There has been an attitude within Pentecostalism that they have all the gifts the Apostles had. No, they do not. You cannot major on the gifts that no longer exist, and SUPERNATURAL AND SPECTULAR AS A MESSAGE OF SALVATION. BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN ANYONE EXCLUDE JESUS CHRIST FROM THE SALVATION PICTURE. ANY TIME YOU EXCLUDE JESUS CHRIST OUT OF SALVATION THEN YOU ONLY HAVE A RELIGION. I say that to anyone, not just Pentecostal’s but EVERYONE.

Here is a very important point that many are forgetting. “THE HOLY SPIRIT GLORIFIES JESUS, NOT HIMSELF. JESUS GLORIFIES THE FATHER, NOT HIMSEF. IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN THAT WAY.  John 16:13-14 “Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.¹⁴ He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

Way too many Pentecostals and other denominations are only interested in money, power, jet planes, million-dollar homes, selling success books, and perverting the gospel of Christ for their own fame and gain. Notice I did say, “AND OTHER DENOMINATIONS.”         Salvation is not your own personal religious Experience.         

In conclusion I will give a few short verses for everyone. The Apostle Paul said, I Corinthians 2:2 “For I determined not to know anything among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.” Paul also said, Romans 1:16 “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. Romans 10:13 “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” There is no substitute for this.
