The Wool Has Been Pulled!

1 John 4:1 (ESV) "Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world."

I would like to propose 10 indications you may have had the wool pulled over your eyes when it comes to tele-evangelists!

1) You own all the books written by Joel Osteen as well as T.D. Jake's movie.

2) You bought 'miracle' spring water, a chart that will help you figure out the date that Jesus is coming back, a splinter from 'the cross of Christ,' dirt from Israel, or a paper prayer cloth from a smiling face on television.

3) You still think Jimmy Swaggart was framed!

4) You do not believe Benny Hinn has a comb over.

5) You named your daughter Rexella (after Van Impe).

6) You have been slain in the spirit while watching Oral Roberts on television.

7) You have been prayed for while touching your television screen. -or- You believe Pat Robertson has actually called your name during his prayer time on "The 700 Club."

8) You quote Joyce Meyers more than Scripture.

9) You applied to be a "catcher" for Benny Hinn.

10) You said 'Amen!' when Robert H. Shuller said: "I don't think anything has been done in the name of Christ and under the banner of Christianity that has proven more destructive to human personality and, hence, counterproductive to the evangelism enterprise than the often crude, uncouth, and unchristian strategy of attempting to make people aware of their lost and sinful condition."

Any others?
