Now its hard to study the life and ministry of a man like Smith Wigglesworth and then deny the validity of The Pentecostal movment

One night when Smith Wigglesworth was praying for people at a meeting in England a young man came up to him. The young man had bandages covering his neck with a feeding tube sticking out. Wigglesworth, as usual, spoke loudly in his harsh Yorkshire accent, "What's up?" That was Wigglesworth's way of asking, "What's your story?" The young man replied very faintly in a voice just above a whisper that he had surgery on his voice box and now could only eat through a tube. The boy then meekly asked if there was anything that God could do for someone like him. Wigglesworth responded in a bellow, "Of course He can - unless He has forgotten how to make voice boxes!" He put his hands on the boy's throat and prayed. He then told the boy to go straight home and eat a meal of meat and potatoes. The young man said that would be impossible since he could only be fed through the tube and that he was completely unable to swallow. Wigglesworth put his hands on the boy and turned him around. He gave him a gentle push and said, "Go on your way and do as you are told. Be not faithless, but believing."



The next evening the young man returned. He came forward still wearing the bandages on his throat. Wigglesworth looked at him and asked, "What are you doing here? I prayed for you last night." The young man said that he wanted to tell him what happened the night before. Wigglesworth immediately turned the young man around to face the congregation and told him to tell the everyone his story. The young man said that he went home and did what was asked of him. He asked his mother to make him a meal of meat and potatoes. She of course resisted due to his health restrictions. He explained to her that the preacher told him that he must eat meat and potatoes. That convinced his mother enough to begin cooking. Once the food was finally in front of him he was terrified. It had been a very, very long time since he had eaten anything in the normal manner. He put the first bite into his mouth. He chewed...and he chewed...and he chewed. Finally he tried to swallow and succeeded. There was no pain! He ate that plate of meat and potatoes and then croaked out still in a voice barely above a whisper that he would like another plate. His mother, while shocked, made her son more food. Then he asked for yet a third plate of meat and potatoes. After devouring the third helping, he spoke to thank his mother for her cooking. As he said "Thank You" his voice was strong and loud for the first time since the surgery. The congregation was amazed at the testimony of what God had done.



Wigglesworth listened silently until the story was finished and then asked the question that was burning in his mind. "Why are you still wearing those bandages?" The young man explained that he had an appointment at the hospital the next day to have the feeding tube removed. Wigglesworth replied, "What The Lord has begun, He can complete." He gently put each of his hands on opposite sides of the feeding tube and slowly began to draw it out of the young man's throat until it was fully removed. The people in attendance were astonished. Then Wigglesworth called for the pastor of the church and some his leadership team. He told them that what they are about to see they probably had never seen anything like it before and very well may never witness anything like it again. Wigglesworth then removed the bandages revealing a gaping hole in the young man's neck. He placed his hand on the skin of his throat and while praying pushed the skin together between his fingers. He then asked The Lord to seal what was once open. When Smith removed his hand the throat was completely whole with no signs of scarring.

DAMNABLE HERESIES ARE BEING PROPAGATED IN ORDER TO FUND CEASAR'S PREACHERS, CHURCHES, AND SATAN'S FINANCIAL KINGDOM!



The case of Smith Wigglesworth is a classic example. Here, read for yourself how Smith Wigglesworth's wife died six years after he became a "God promises healing to those whose faith is strong enough" antichrist preacher. His daughter who assisted in Smith's revivals, where they pumped the naive and ignorant for money, was deaf all of her life. Get somewhere with this deceitful garbage. I was in this warped humanist movement, this corporatist fiction, until the Lord delivered me. So, trust me, I was in the Pentrecostal-Charismatic Movement for about 16 years. It is Satanic.



Here is an article I grabbed off the internet; it is about a book "PENTECOSTAL-CHARISMATIC MOVEMENT: Its History and Error" by David Cloud. I heard all of the nonsense of Smith Wigglesworth when I was in the movement 15 years ago.



[REVIEW OF CLOUD'S BOOK]



The case of Smith Wigglesworth can stand for all of the other Pentecostal faith healers, because he is considered one of the greatest of them. He taught that God promises perfect physical wholeness, that the Christian has the power to command things into being, and that the Christian can operate in the same sign gifts that Jesus Christ exhibited. Even so, very few of those who sought Wigglesworth's healing ministrations were ever healed. His own wife died six years after he became a Pentecostal and his son died two years after that. His daughter, who assisted in his meetings, was never healed of her deafness. For three years Wigglesworth himself suffered with gallstones. We who understand that physical healing is not PROMISED for this present time know that such things are part of God's sovereign plan and we are not confused by these events. God often heals in answer to prayer, but He does not always heal. According to the doctrine that physical healing is guaranteed in the atonement and is a part of the gospel, though, the things that happened to Wigglesworth should not have occurred. Those who hold this doctrine tell us that sickness is never a blessing of God, that it is of the devil, that it has been defeated on the cross. According to his own doctrine, Wigglesworth's daughter should have been healed of her deafness, his gallstones should have been supernaturally removed, his wife should have been healed of the sickness that took her life when she was but a young woman, and his son should have been healed of the sickness that took him away in childhood.



Pentecostals-Charismatics are all hypocrites, only they do not know it [yet]. Some will be called out of Ceasar's churches, some will be left in them.



Make no mistake about it, Christianity as a whole, is Satanic as Ceasar control them by the fictitious contractual oath swearing system of Babylon.

It is good for you to expose yourself continually wiseman, as you continualy spwak of who is god and who is satan, that whcih continually comes out of your mouth is from the root of bitterness.



You as you rant and rave with the term of sovereignity have continually called God a liar.



There are no movements just terms of men primarily used of those that walk in unbelief.



The Holy Spirit was the promise of the father from the beginning of the church and we are still in the same church, it is your choice to walk in the darkness rejecting the word of God.

@AWM, you are a little batty sometimes! Jesus himself said his followers would do miricles like the ones he did and greater did he not say that AWM? What else did our Lord say? HMMM the Pharsies said he was casting out devils by the power of satan didnt they say that? Yeah I think they did! And what did the Lord Jesus say? HMMM I think he said something like can satan cast out satan? and then something like a house divided can not stand! So you are the Pharasie here I think! And as far as Polly Brother Smiths Wife he did bring her back from the dead and through tears she asked her husband to let her go! She told him the Lord wanted her home and he said if the Lord wants you Ill not keep you here! So really? Yes we can recieve blessing through sickness but God does not cause sicknesses thats satans job! But the Word says all things work together for good FOR THOSE WHO LOVE THE LORD, so even my 10 year long battle with addiction has been a blessing and God is and has used it for the good! Does that mean he caused it? NO it doesnt! Just like disease and infirmaties that were heald through Brother Smiths ministry they were caused by satan and used for the good of the Lord! and whats all this ranting about taking oaths and swearing? Jesus said let your yey be yey and your ney be ney and not so swear by your head cause you dont have the power to turn one hair grey! somthing like that anyway I dont take oaths and I dont know of a pentecostal church that does! You just talk out both sides of your head! BLESS YOUR HEART AWM (southern style)
