Is Your Church's Liability Insurance Current?
Thursday, May 10, 2007 at 03:25PM 
A warning to all pastors and church workers! Make sure that your church has paid its liability insurance in full, because if someone cracks their noggin when you slay them in the Spirit, they just might sue you!
According to an article which appeared in the Lansing State Journal (Click here: Lansing State Journal: Pastor testifies he was told woman suing church appeared coached,)
"Judith Dadd, 52, of Lansing is suing Mount Hope Church, based in Delta Township, and Williams. She says she went to the altar during a July 18, 2002 rally for church leaders and was `slain in the Spirit' according to testimony. She fell backward and struck her head on the floor. Dadd claims she still suffers from the effects of the fall, including depression, memory loss and difficulty concentrating."
This is a warning to all of us. Make sure your "catchers" are up to the task! If not, you might end up in court!

A profound truth.
With Romans 13 in mind, perhaps lawsuits will help curtail Mr. Hinn's shaming Christ's name in public?
That was all tongue in cheek just in case anyone was in danger of taking me seriously.
For some reason when I think of "greeters" or a "greeting ministry" I picture big, retired men in Bill Cosby sweaters who are "really glad to see you" and tear up for hardly any reason. They hug you when you even if you don't know them and smell faintly of Old Spice.
That has nothing to do with catchers and probably won't get you sued but there it is nonetheless.
"15 people saved. 10 receive the Holy Spirit."
I guess it would be safer to be in that one third who didn't get the guarantee of their inheritance.
I can say that years ago and I do mean years ago I was in a Set Free Church where the pastor believed in the second Baptism of the Holy Spirit and toward the end on the services I would catch people who were over come by the Holy Spirit or slain in the Spirit. I do not know what to make of it as I never felt anything nor could explain this strange experience.
That lady is money hungry and I well say that. If a knock on the head caused her all that anguish then I would ask did see have any of these systems before she entered the church. I think she saw an opening for some money.
When ever you are ready to fell the anointing and pray for people I am your man to come and catch people.
HA! HA! HA!
Pastor Kim can't even keep those microphone demons cast out! Lol.

Those who are getting slain in the "Spirit" don't care that it's not biblical. That they experience it validates it. You can't argue with such people, nor reason with them. All you can do is separate yourself from them, and get away from them as far as you can. I grew up in a Pentecostal church. Trust me, this stuff is far, far more dangerous than it is silly. Don't walk, RUN in the other direction. This is some of the most powerful deception there is. All that business about the "Spirit": tongues, prophesies, sings, etc. Look at Wayne Grudem or John Piper. These men are solid, but they won't let go of some little taste of this stuff. They won't affirm cessation. This is powerful, powerful scary stuff, because once you begin to be tempted in that direction, you can't see how the Bible isn't affirming that for us today. You just see the apostles doing something like that in Acts, and you let yourself go, and you are taken away and enticed and put to death.
Don't walk, RUN from this stuff. This is the adulterous woman who has perfumed her bed while her husband is away.

Hahahah
I wonder if my boss would buy it?
