In reply to Alina.

Your argument in defense of a necromancer (spiritual adultery – Deuteronomy 18:10-12) is one of the oldest tricks in the book. Muslims use the very same argument in defense of Mohammad the pedophile. Carl W. Ernst, a professor of religion at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and an expert in Islam also said what you have said.

“. . . picking faults with any religious tradition can quickly get ugly. What about Moses, who killed another man; David, who committed adultery; or the Apostle Paul, who accepted slavery as a natural part of the social order?”

Do you have the assurance of salvation?

Noah was a drunk
Abraham lied about his wife
Jacob was deceitful
Moses murdered an Egyptian
Rahab was a prostitute
Sampson was afflicted with deep lust and anger
David was an adulterer
Paul persecuted the church
Peter denied christ

The centurian in Matthew 8:5-10 was raised pagan, and likely practiced it.

“But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong”
1 Corinthians 1:27

Not really our place to judge Sadhu Singh or Todd Bentley (or their capacity to be a messenger) based on perceived iniquities.

Hi Peter, There are many Christs in the world today, (false ones) and one needs to make very sure that you are not following a false one. Watch this video, if you will.

Frankly the arguments made in this article can be easily countered by applying common logic. You debate on a topical level, without truly digging deeper. I doubt you read much of Sundar Sign’s writings. If you did, you’d know he was a follower of Christ alone. FYI he wasn’t a Hindu before coming to Christ, but you’d know that if you knew his writings.

In reply to Dr. Carolyn L. Hilt.

Dear Carolyn

Do you know the name of the man in the yellow robe that was on the Jim Bakker show?

You said “The first thought I had was this man was going to be instrumental in bringing down Jim Bakker for a second time for opening himself to the teachings.”

Um, nope, Jim Bakker has not changed one bit, he never rose up after his downfall, was and he is still a false teacher.

Today, I happened to tune in to the Jim Bakker show. Immediately, and that is no exaggeration, I was struck by this man who was sitting next to him dressed in a yellow robe. I had no idea who he was, but when he spoke, I was pricked in my heart that this was not a truthful person. I did not know this person, had never heard of him, but felt so strongly, i started investigating who in the world was he. All the words spoken were meant to put fear into you. There was no love of Christ manifested, no imploring people to turn their lives over to the Lord. It was hard and negative. There was no love evidenced. Then there was a break and the viewing audience was asked to purchase all of the tapes of this man. I shut off the TV feeling overwhelmed and did not know what I had just witnessed but knew strongly there was something wrong. The first thought I had was this man was going to be instrumental in bringing down Jim Bakker for a second time for opening himself to the teachings. The second thought was why was Jim so eager to embrace this man. I thought of the Bereans who searched the Scripture to see if the things the apostles told them was true. They searched daily. In all of the talking there were few if any Scriptures mentioned and in fact I would be hard-pressed to remember any of them. The thing that stood out in my mind was the constant imploring for people to purchase his tapes. I am concerned. I cannot endorse someone that seems to have multiple “conversion” experiences. One that I read mentioned he said he was at a meeting where science was discussed and evolution and the speaker talked about the Creator. He then said he felt a hand on his back propelling him forward. Another story mentioned the vision he had of Jesus. Others mentioned his anger and on and on. We are warned that in the later days that false prophets would arise and we need to be discerning and careful and not jump on the bandwagon in support until we have conviction that the person is true to the Gospel. I pray this man is not a false prophet and if he is that it will be revealed before many are hurt. Blessings in the Lord Jesus,

In reply to Prakash.

Hi Prakash.

There is no such thing as a “Europeanization of Christianity.” There is “One Lord, one faith, one baptism (referring to the baptism of the Holy Ghost and not the water baptism of John the Baptist).” (Ephesians 4:5). So, the bottom line is that Sadhu Sundar Singh’s teachings were out of place with the teachings of the One Lord Jesus Christ, and that, to say the least, is very dangerous.

Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds. (2 John 1:9-11)

We don’t evaluate a person’s spirituality on his works but what he believes (his doctrines).
