| The seventh trend is an overemphasis on demon power. Brewster cautioned against attributing every problem to demons, which gives undue recognition to the devil, who is “already a defeated foe.†|

| Good points Aaron, especially the Evangelists. My short time 3-4 years in Missouri I remember the larger states paying and sending their evangelists to smaller churches in what we called then 'mission states'. My memory of the blessings when a YOUNG Carl Hart and his lovely wife came to our little church in Moberly. He preached his heart out, and we were so blessed to think someone cared outside Moberly. That was probably 1961-62.Carl was with A Florida team. NC, SC and GA also had teams they sent out.To the OP: Not pointing out any one trend, but some are natural trends and not necessarily a spiritually downward trend. I do not think as a whole Pentecostals 'smile at SIN' especially the SINS specifically listed in scripture, i.e. Adultery, murder, tale-bearing and gossip etc.We have due to society changed opinions on:Clothing, jewelry, perms, stockings sleeves etc Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/ |

| If you are talking about the larger Pentecostal and Charismatic movement, I think the problem got a lot bigger, probably, after he wrote this article. Think about the approaches to so-called 'spiritual warfare', where you are supposed to be able to know what principalities are over a city by looking at symptoms, and then bring about some kind of transformation in the city by yelling at all the principalities over the city. In Indonesia, this so-called 'spiritual warfare' stuff influenced Bethel, which is part of the COG. There were people who would say they were doing 'spiritual warfare prayer' and then talk to principalities. I don't see the apostles doing this sort of thing.And if you cast out all the demons out of a city and the people don't get saved, then why wouldn't the demons come back with 7 times as many spirits more wicked than themselves |
